SPRING HAS COME. 
BY O. W. HOLMES. 
The sunbeams, lost for half a year, 
Slant through my pane their morning rays, 
For dry Northwesters, cold and clear, 
The East blows in its thin blue haze. 
And first the snowdrop’s bells are seen, 
Then closo against the sheltering wall 
The tulip’s horn of dusky green, 
The peony’s dark unfolding ball. 
The golden-ehaliced crocus burns; 
The long narcissus-blades appear ; 
The cone-beuked hyacinth returns, 
And lights her blue-flamed chandelier. 
The willow’s whistling lashes, wrung 
By the wild winds of gusty March, 
With sallow leaflets lightly strung, 
Are swaying by the tufted larch. 
The elms have robed their slender spray 
With full-blown flower and embryo leaf; 
Wide o’er the clasping arch of day 
Soars, like a cloud, their hoary chief. 
-[See the proud tulip’s flaunting cup 
That flames in glory for an hour,— 
Behold it withering,—then look up,— 
IIow meek the forest-monarch’s flower!— 
When wake the violets, Winter dies; 
When sprout the elm-buds, Spring is near; 
When lilacs blossom, Summer cries, 
“ Bud, little roses! Spring is here!”] 
The windows blush with fresh boquets, 
Cut with the May-dew on their lips ; 
The radish all its bloom displays, 
Pink as Aurora’s finger-tips. 
Nor less the flood of light that showers 
On beauty’s changed corolla shades,— 
The walks are gay as bridal bowers 
With rows of many petallcd maids. 
The scarlet shell-fish click and clash 
In the blue barrow where they slide ; 
The horseman, proud of streak and splash, 
Creeps homeward from his morning ride. 
Hero comes the dealer’s awkward string, 
With neck in rope and tail in knot,— 
Bough colts with careless country swing, 
In lazy walk or slouching trot. 
Wild filly from the mountain side, 
Doomed to the close and chafing thills, 
Lend me thy long, untiring stride 
To seek with thee thy western hills. 
I hear the whispering voice of Spring, 
The thrush’s trill, the cat-bird’s cry, 
Like some poor bird with prisoned wing 
That sits and sings, but longs to fly. 
Oh, for one spot of living green,— 
One little spot where leaves can grow,— 
To love unblamed, to walk unseen, 
To dream above, to sleep below 1

DAISIES. 
BY WINNIE WIL1IAS. 
“ By Jove! Miss Hoyt, if I thought there was 
such a thing as disinterestedness among women, 
I should be tempted to commit matrimony. Here 
I am, thirty-five years old, and still a bachelor.— 
My house and gardens arc going to ruin, all for the 
want of a woman’s presence, and I sadly need re¬ 
humanizing myself. Such maneuvering as I have 
witnessed among husband-seeking old maids, mar¬ 
riageable young ladies, managing mammas, and 
giggling school-girls, have put me entirely out of 
humor with the sex. What do you think of my 
case, Densy Hoyt?” 
“Sad, very, but not hopeless,” she replied; 
“ but you have only looked on one picture. You 
have mingled only with the gay and trifling — the 
heartless votaries of fashion. You are surfeited 
with empty pleasures, the glamour of inexperi¬ 
ence has passed from your eyes, and you see things 
as they arc. Your pure gold has turned out to be 
a thin gilding; but I think if you will step aside 
from your path of worldliness, you will find that 
there yet live women noble and true-heartodenough 
to suit even your fastidious taste, Mr. IlEaaiCK.” 
“ Perhaps so,” he replied carelessly, “ but I 
haven’t the inclination to hunt them up. All! this 
is a sad, weary world. Miss Hoyt, what is your 
idea of life V” 
“ It is too solemn a thing to be trifled with,” she 
said, looking at him with her earnest, searching 
eyes. “ Ho you know, I often wondered that you, 
with all your wealth and talents, should have ac¬ 
complished so little for your own good or that of 
your fellow beings. It is not too late to begin yet, 
Paul Herrick. Let the world be the better for 
your having lived!” 
A bright color suffused her auditor’s face. “I 
used to have such dreams when I was young,” he 
said, “ but I have out-lived them with my youth. 
As you say, it is not too late to commence living in 
earnest, and I have half a mind to try. Do you 
possess a charm, Miss Hoyt? I always feel like a 
‘new creature’ when in your neighborhood, you 
are so unlike most ladies of your age. You arc — 
how old, Miss Densy?” 
“ Twenty-nine,” she quietly replied. 
“And you experience no uneasiness at the tho’t 
of living a single life !—have no horror of being 
called an ‘ old maid ?’ ” 
Densy IIoyt smiled her own peculiar smile. She 
said — “I long ago come to the conclusion that 
dame Nature forgot to provide a ‘ worser’ half for 
me, and moreover, I have ‘learned in whatsoever 
state I am, therewith to be content.’ In my early 
days I imbibed a horror of artful, designing old 
maids, and then determined to live as a model of 
what a spinster should be.” She added, more se¬ 
riously,—“ It is an old fancy of mine that the 
words, ‘take no thought for the morrow,’ were 
especially designedlor the perusal of maiden ladies. 
Ah, this taking so much thought is the curse of 
the world.” 
Mr. Herrick was silent awhile, and Densy busily 
plied her needle. At last he spoke : 
“ You have heard of the old Spaniard who left 
his sunny home to seek in the New World the life- 
giving waters of the fountain of youth? He did 
not find them. Nevertheless, I shall start on a 
similar tour, though not quite so foolish as his.— 
I shall seek for a wife and happiness. Pray I may 
be more successful than he.” 
A half sigh rose to Densy’s lips, but she smoth¬ 
ered it, and answered in her low voice. 
“ Ponce ije Leon might have found happiness, 
if not youth, at home. We often overlook the dear 
little daisies at our feet, in search of gaudier flow¬ 
ers ; but ‘ distance lends enchantment to the 
view,’ aud when we, bruised and wearied, reach 
the objects of our strivings, we find them noxious 
weeds, and long for the humble daisies.” 
“ Well, perhaps I shall stumble upon my daisy, 
yet,” he said gaily; “ and now I’m off for the coun¬ 
try. I’m tired of city life and feel a desire for 
green fields and fresh air. Adieu!” and he was 
gone. 
Densy IIoyt checked another sigh, and laying 
aside her work, sought her room with a book. But 
I fancy she did not read much, and I imagine also, 
that, avowed old maid as she was, despite his 
faults, she cherished something more than mere 
friendly feeling toward Paul Herrick in her maid¬ 
enly heart. 
And Paul — as for Paul, he had overlooked his 
daisy already. 
The evening train bore our friend from the city, 
and ere midnight he reposed his “ weary, pilgrim 
limbs” beneath the friendly roof of the only hotel 
which the village of F -afforded. The next day 
at an unfasliionably early hour, he strolled forth to 
enjoy the morning beauties of his stopping place. 
“I wonder what Densy would think of this,” lie 
soliloquised, as he stretched himself on the dew- 
gemmed green-sward, (a very imprudent perform¬ 
ance,) and enjoyed the songs of the birds and the 
smell of the flowering grasses. “ I know she 
would say that the country is the only place where 
one can truly live.” Perhaps Densy would and 
perhaps she would not have said so. Be that as it 
may, I am sure of one thing, that Mr. Paul Der¬ 
rick acquired a most outrageous appetite for his 
breakfast, as his landlady can testify to this day. 
Time passed on and our friend became more and 
more delighted with his surroundings—especially 
as his hostess had kindly introduced him to all the 
village maidens, and he had found one, who, he 
thought, was all his “fancy painted her.” 
There’s no denying the fact, that Jenny Page 
was pretty, but she possessed a shrewdness our 
Paul little dreamed of; she read him well, and be¬ 
haved accordingly. A more demure, artless lassie 
would be hard to find. Yes, Jenny Page, with 
her bright curls, laughing blue eyes, and dimpled 
white shoulders — Jenny in her simple white 
dresses—had fairly danced into the bachelor-heart 
that had withstood the attacks of troops of beau- 
tious ladies clad in gold and velvet. 
Such walks in the moon-light; such sails on the 
river, delightful pic-nics and rambles in the woods, 
Paiui. Herrick had never experienced before, and 
consequently imagined he dwelt in fairy-land; 
while Jenny, artful gipse}', grew tired of the 
“ sweetness long drawn out,” and began to won¬ 
der if “ he was ever going to propose.” 
Paul wrote once to Densy — “ I have found my 
daisy, dear Densy, and a veritable little country 
daisy it is, quite unpretending enough to suit even 
you. Think you my blossom will bear transplant¬ 
ing to city soil?—or will our scorching sun wilt its 
tiny white leaves? But I am foolish to talk so, as 
I have not as yet breathed aught of love in Jenny’s 
ear. Isn’t it a pretty name ? The owner is pretty, 
too, I assure you,” — and here followed a catalogue 
of Jenny’s charms, quite interesting to the lovers, 
no doubt, but not so to my reader, who, if he be a 
lover also, thinks his own Jenny the very prettiest 
and best in the world. 
A few tear-drops from Densy’s eyes blotted this 
same letter, but what caused them I don’t pretend 
to say — perhaps a friendly solicitude for the hap¬ 
piness of the writer. Her answer was brief. 
“I rejoice that you have at last found your daisy, 
Paul Herrick, but you had better make haste, or 
other hands may gather it. Gon bless you.” 
Paul, also, thought he had better come to an un¬ 
derstanding with the fair Jenny at once. He thus 
made up his mind as he lay in the clover reading 
Densy’s letter. “ She is right,” he soliloquized, 
folding it up—“some one else may carry off’my 
daisy—and—” here Paul Herrick came to the con¬ 
clusion that such a procedure would kill him. “ I 
could never bear it,” lie continued. “ I’m sure I 
never could recover from the blow.” Just then he 
heard voices— Jenny’s among the rest. 
“I should like to know what he means, Jen., 
hanging around all summer, and not a word of 
love, although it’s plain to be seen that he is smit¬ 
ten.” 
“Yes, I have him sure enough,” said Jenny, 
“ but then lie’s so provokingly slow about pro- 
jiosing. But when I am once married to him, ‘I’ll 
act out’ to pay for being so outrageously prim this 
summer.” 
“Ah! how I envy you, Jenny,” said another 
girlish voice. “ They say, lie’s immensely rich, and 
you’ll live in such style—have your carriage—fine 
house—and servants and such dresses ! Oh, my!” 
“Don’t feel bad, Sue; I’ll hunt you up a rich 
husband in the city. Yes, I’ll live in style, girls. 
You may believe I’ll make his money fly when I 
get hold of his purse-strings,” and laughing and 
chattering gaily, the girls tripped away. 
Paul was thunder-struck; for a few moments 
the field and sky fairly spun around, and he could 
not have told whether he was himself or a bunch of 
clover. After an immoderate rubbing of his eyes, 
he came to the wise conclusion that he was still 
alive. “And I was sure it would kill me to lose 
my daisy,” he murmured, “ and I believe it would, 
had it been a true flower. But as it is—why, I sup¬ 
pose ‘it’s better as it is;’” and with a sigh he 
arose. An hour later, and he had packed his 
trunk, and also penned a note to Miss Page, wherein 
she was informed that Mr. Herrick regretted that 
lie could not afford her the pleasure of making his 
money fly, but he preferred handling his own purse¬ 
strings. By the time she received the billet lie was 
whirling away from the village of F -to return 
“never more.” 
Mr. Herrick talked to himself something after 
this wise:—“ I don’t think I have loved her so very 
much after all, for I don’t feel anything like com¬ 
mitting suicide. And Densy” — here the calm, 
sweet face of Densy Hoyt rose vividly before him 
— “ and Densy, I know she will be sorry for me. 
Perhaps” — but the rest of the sentence could not 
be heard for the ringing of bells as the train neared 
the city. 
The next morning when Densy awoke, she found 
a vase of white daisies on her table, and, upon 
questioning Betty, obtained a knowing nod of the 
head with only this answer—“I put them there 
’cording to instructions, Miss Nebby; you don’t 
know who sent them.” 
Densy did not shed any tears over her flowers, 
but she placed them very tenderly in the window, 
and sat down by them to her sewing. But she had 
a very strange feeling in her heart. While it was 
yet altogether too early for fashionable calls, there 
was a ring at the door-bell, and Betty ushered Mr. 
Paul Herrick into the cosy little drawing-room, 
and Densy received him in her old cordial way. 
“ I did not expect you back yet awhile, ’ she said, 
after the usual greetings had taken place. “ Have 
you come to prepare a soil for your daisy ?” 
“Yes,” he replied, his face fairly shining; “I 
have come to make ready my garden. And, by the 
way, it must be a fancy-like enclosure, full of rare 
flowers and singing birds, and silvery fountains. I 
cannot get too nice a place for my daisy, Densy.” 
“ Surely not,” she answered, wonderiugly — for 
she never saw him so moved before. 
“ I haven’t told you how that would-be daisy in 
the country, turned out to be no daisy at all, 
have I?” 
“No,” with an astonished look. 
“ Well,” I found out by chance that it would only 
flourish in a golden soil, and that would’nt suit 
me ; you understand, Densy? It was nothing but 
a weed, after all,—not worth the plucking,—and I 
have come to gather my true blossom. Am I too 
late?” 
There was no misunderstanding him now, and 
Densy with trembling fingers picked one of the 
pure white blossoms in the window and gave it to 
him. He eagerly grasped the little hand and flow¬ 
ers, both, exclaiming: 
“ Densy —my own Daisy 1” and — and — indeed, 
dear reader, I dare not tell any more of that scene. 
Sufficient to say, it was highly satisfactory to both 
parties. They were married soon after, and to the 
wonderment of her friends, in addition to her sim¬ 
ply snowy robe, the bride wore a wreath of white 
daisies. But she vouchsafed no explanation, and 
Paul highly approved her bridal gear. 
It was then Paul Herrick began to live in earn¬ 
est. It was hard at first to cast aside las indolent 
nature, but with Dansy as his cncourager, coun¬ 
sellor and loving guide, he has gloriously succeeded, 
and I think the world is the better for his having 
lived. 
One word, dear reader, — don’t overlook the 
daisies.

Patentcd February 22<I, 1859. 
During the six years I have been engaged in the manufac¬ 
ture of the Manny Combined Reaper and Mower, 1 have 
given much thought and attention to the construction of what 
1 foresaw would be a great want of the Farmers— a lighter 
and cheaper machine expressly for mowing, than had yet 
been made. 
And now, after the most thorough and repeated experi¬ 
ments and tests in every varietyof field, and in all kinds and 
in every condition of grass, I am prepared, with entire confi¬ 
dence, to offer to the farmers and dealers of the United 
States, the great desideratum in this department of Agricul¬ 
tural labor-saving machines—a Mower, superior in its capac¬ 
ity for good work to any hitherto introduced, of easy draft, 
light, cheep, and durable. 
This machine I now offer as my latest invention, to meet a 
special want of farmers, and to place within the roach of all, 
a Mower that for practical working, cheapness and simplici¬ 
ty, will be without a rival. 
t build 'Two-Horse and One-IIorse Mowers. The Two- 
Horse Mower weighs 425 lbs., and cuts a swath four feet wide 
(or moreif specially ordered.) The One-IIorse Mowerweighs 
80 lbs. less, (395 lbs.,) and cuts a swath three and a half feet 
wide. 
For a more full description of the Mower, reference is made 
to my Pamphlets, which will he furnished on application.— 
With each machine will be furnished two extra guards, two 
extra sections, one wrench and oil can. 
Warranted capable of cutting ten acres of grass per day in 
a workmanlike manner.

WITH WOOD'S IMPROVEMENT, 
For t li e 1-1 tirvest; of 1859. 
The subscriber begs to inform the public that he continues 
to manufacture this popular machine, and pledges himself to 
produce an implement that will fully sustain its former repu¬ 
tation, as the best combined machine yet introduced, and 
inferior to none, either as a Reaper or Mower. 
It has had a steady and increasing popularity from the first, 
achieving a complete success in tiie first important trial at 
Geneva in 1852. It carried oil' the highest honors at the great 
National Field Trial at Syracuse in 1857; and amidst all the 
competition and trials of 1858, came out with more and better 
established points of excellence than ever before. 
The general principles peculiar to this machine, and upon 
which it is constructed, have proved so successful that there 
has been no attempt to change them. 
The main effort during the last year lias been to improve 
its mechanical construction, to make it stronger and more 
durable, and sustain its reputation as the leading and most 
acceptable machine to the largest class of farmers in the 
country. 
Warranted capable of cutting from 10 to 15 acres of grass
