THE VIOLET. 
A violet peered from the window-sill. 
One sultry summer's day, 
And the noontide silently came, and stole 
The violet's bloom away. 
But a cloud swept la/.ily over the shy, 
The noontide fell in vain. 
And the zephyrs were re-awakened soon. 
By a gentle August rain. 
The meadow and woodland rejoiced anew, 
The pool and streamlet swelled, 
’ And a single drop from the Hood, was all 
The violet's goblet held. 
Yet when the evening canopied the flow'rs, 
The violet smiled below, 
For tlie pearly bestowal revived her heart,

FORTY-SEVEN YEARS AGO.-PART FIRST. 
11 ii re is a copy of the .American Mercury, 
bearing date, Thursday, May 30, 1805—just 
forty-seven years since. Under the head, 
which is embellished by a dubious-looking 
cut supposed to represent a small spread 
eagle, is a line, as follows:—“ Hartford, 
(Con.) • Published by Elisha Babcock, — 
(Printer of the Laws of the Union.”) Of 
the terms, &c., nothing appears. It is mark¬ 
ed, “Vol. XXI. No. 1091”—a very respect¬ 
able age for a paper to attain; and, as a 
consequence, it must have been started in 
1784. The shoct is a folio. 26 by 23 inches, 
of a dingy white color, rather thick and 
coarse, with ragged edges. There are five 
columns on a page, one-half of which are 
filled with advertisements. Its politics are 
Republican, warmly supporting Mr. Jeffer¬ 
son. the then President. Nearly every ar¬ 
ticle is political, depreciating the Federalists 
and lauding the Republicans. The first, 
nearly two columns and a half long, i3 from 
the Enquirer, and is headed, “ The present 
policy of the Federal party.” It is well 
written and forcible, aiming mainly to deter 
Republicans from joining the Federalists to 
“save the Constitution!” It seems that 
then, as in more recent times, there were 
those who felt peculiarly zealous to “savo 
the country,” and called upon honest men 
of all parties to lend their aid during the 
crisis. Thanks to the efforts of those pat¬ 
riots—or to some other cause—the Consti¬ 
tution is yet safe and sound, and will doubt¬ 
less survive many more of these dreadful 
attacks. 
The next article—“Thoughts on the true 
path to national glory. By an old Whig to 
his friend,”—is about the same length, and 
is scissored from the National Intelligencer. 
The writer maintains that an industrious and 
virtuous people, with a free and just Govern¬ 
ment, ensures true national glory. lie 
speaks of “ having contributed his best ser¬ 
vices in times not without danger or difii- 
culty, to a country which ho could never 
cease to love;” refers to the Revolutionary 
struggle as yet “fresh in their memories;” 
and quotes the great loading doctrines of 
the Declaration of Independence, as one 
who liad labored to lay the foundations of 
our now extended and prosperous Republic, 
and who watched over its progress with 
deepest solicitude. 
Next comes a communication, “For the 
Mercury,” headed—“Birth, life and death 
of the Connecticut Cincinnati.” It states 
that “on tho 13th of May, 1783, Joseph 
Walker, Ebenezer Huntington, David 
Humphreys, Benjamin Talmadge, Samuel 
Wyllys, David Smith, Elijah Chapman, 
Ezekiel 1*. Belden and others were associ¬ 
ated as members of the above Society, and 
tho above men, by a solemn instrument 
pledged their sacred honor that said society 
should endure as long as they should endure, 
or any of their eldest male posterity, and in 
failure thereof the collateral branches.”— 
The writer—a member—signing himself W., 
charges these men with having violated their 
“sacred honor,” in that, on the 4th of July, 
1804, they, with some others, resolved that 
the Connecticut Stato Society of Cincinnati 
be dissolved, each member taking from the 
funds the sum deposited by him, and dona¬ 
ting the balance to Yale College. He states 
the funds to amount to more than $15,000; 
the number of members 250; of whom, only 
45 woro present, and 23 voted for the dis¬ 
solution. 
Then follows a half-column of news, dated 
“Norfolk, May 6.” A gentleman from St. 
Thomas brings an account of a battle before 
the city of St. Domingo, between the negro 
troops, under “Jean Jaques, the first Em¬ 
peror of Hayti,” and tho French garrison, 
under Gen. Ferrand. The blacks were de¬ 
feated, with a loss of 1,300 men, all their 
ammunition, stores, provisions, military 
chests and treasure of the Emperor. Tho 
French loss is put down at 80. 
An extract from Cobbett’s Weekly Reg¬ 
ister comes next, which spoaks in very plain 
terms of Mr. Pitt’s knowledge of military 
affairs. . 
“To fill a column,” and to complete the 
second page, is an advertisement of North 
j & Pierce’s Scythes, for sale by William II. 
I Imlay. 
Under dato of “New York, May 24.” it is 
! stated that four years previously, only one 
whaling ship sailed from Sag Harbor. In 
1802 and J803, there were three; in 1804, 
four; in 1805, six were contemplated, be¬ 
sides a fine ship on the stocks for tho next 
season, and preparations for the building of j 
others. The Cod Fishery was likewise rap- ’ 
idly advancing*; four schooners and one i 
sloop having sailed tho Saturday previous, ; 
for the hanks of Newfoundland. 
The editorial leader states that a poor 
young man in the Eastern part of the State j 
—a “ porpoise,” (!) who was denied the right 
of suffrage, had lost his hand by the burst¬ 
ing of a gun, while serving in the militia, 
and had petitioned the Legislature for aid. I 
A hill passed the House of Representatives : 
granting him an annuity of $20 for life, but 
this exceeded the generosity of the Council, j 
who negatived the hill. Tho weight of the 
article comes down on Gen. Collins, of 
Guilford, a member of tho House, who ex¬ 
pressed sympathy for the man, hut did not : 
know about opening the Ti'easury to such 
applications. 
From the Chronicle is copied an account 
of the departure from Massachusetts of Gen. 
Wm. Hull and family for Detroit, to fill the I 
post of Governor of the Territory of Mich¬ 
igan. He was escorted to Dedham by the i 
military, and the lion. E. Gerrt and many ! 
other republican patriots paid their parting ; 
respects to him. “The whole dined at Mr. ; 
Fuller’s tavern.” J. w.

WILLIAM AND MARY HOWITT. 
William Howitt is a man of about fifty j 
years of age, and is possessed of a somewhat 
striking physical appearance. Hi; is about 
the average height, has a tolerably full hab¬ 
it, mild blue eyes (mild save when his ire is ; 
aroused,) and is bald upon the top of his 
head and forehead. What hair lie has is ; 
white as snow, and gives to him an almost 
singular appearance. In his manners he is 
a gentleman, not so much from a regard for 
conventionalism, as from the promptings of 
a kind nature. In conversation he is one 
of tho most interesting men it was ever our 
chance to meet in life. Ho has an inex¬ 
haustible fund of anccdoto and humor, and 
is especially at home while talking of the 
country and country things, lie is impul¬ 
sive, and speaks abruptly some times, but 
one could hear him relate his stories and 
adventures for hours without tiring. He I 
imparts to ail he says a peculiar poetic 
charm: if you are out of a summer evening J 
on the lawn, with tho moonlight making j 
shadows all around you, he will tell some 
strange and thrilling stories of ghost and 
ghost life that will chill you through. 
Mary Howitt is a few years younger than 
her husband, has a matronly look, and would 
never be taken for an authoress. You 
would call her the model of a wife or moth¬ 
er, so kind and gentle is she in all her ac¬ 
tions. Physically speaking, she is strong, 
large-made, and full of vigor. She lias 
more life in her than half a dozen young 
women of fashion. Yet she is exceedingly 
graceful, and if not strictly beautiful after 
an artist’s heart, she is more than beautiful. 
Her face is always in a smiling repose, and 
her eyes have a mingled expression of love 
and intellect, which constitutes them, to our 
thinking, very beautiful. Personally, aside 
from her qualities as an authoress, she is 
very popular. Wo doubt if any one ever 
knew her without loving her character.— | 
There is an inexpressible charm in her ways 
and manners, just as there is in her books. 
Although her features are irregular, and 
not strictly handsome, we have seen her 
among a room full of ladies, when some of 
those present were acknowledged by all to 
be exceedingly beautiful, yet Mary Howitt 
was—and you could not help but feel it— 
queen among them all. She lias, while j 
standing, an air of lofty, commanding sweet- j 
ness, which pleases and enchains the stran- j 
ger. But you would not take her for an 
authoress. You would call her a proper 
character to figure in a fiction, rather than 
a creator of such characters.— Bartlett. 
Tribute to Women.— Here is one from a I 
country schoolmaster, the justice of which i 
few will dispute: “There is something about ' 
women that is curious, isn't there?—This 
morning I swept the school-house.— I 
thought it was nicely done. I felt proud. 
Presently some girls came in ; and one. true 
to the instinctive sense of neatness,character¬ 
istic of her sex, took the broom. She swept 
after me—and good gracious, what a change! 
It seemed as if—well, I can’t tell-, but when 
she had got done, I had a very poor opinion 
of my house-keeping powers, I assure you. 
The stove-hearth, tlie wood by the stove, all, 
every thing, put on that look which only 
woman can give. What in creation is it 
that makes them give such an air to things?” 
—Knickerbocker Magazine. 
Slander, says Lacon, cannot make the 
subject of it either better or worse. It may 
represent us in a false light, or place a like¬ 
ness of us in a bad one. But we remain 
tho same. Not so with the slanderer—the 
slander that he utters makes him still worse, 
tho slandered never. 
As the Spanish proverb says—“He who 
would bring home the wealth of the Indies, 
must carry the wealth of tho Indies with 
him, if he woujd bring home knowledge.” 
Wiiat is tho best government ? That 
which teaches us to govern ourselves. 
A VOICE FROM THE PAST. 
Last evening as we were walking leisure¬ 
ly along Clark Street, the music of the 
choirs in three churches, came floating out 
into the darkness around us. and they were 
all new and strange tunes, but one. And 
that one — it was not sung as wo have 
heard it, hut it awakened a train of long 
buried memories, that roso to us even as 
they were, ere the cemetery of the soul had 
a tomb in it 
It was sweet old Corinth they were sing¬ 
ing—strains we have seldom heard, since 
the rose-cOlor of life was blanched ; and wo 
were, in a moment, back again to the old 
village church, and it was a summer after- j 
noon, and the yellow sunbeams were stream¬ 
ing through the west windows, and the silver 
hair of the old Deacon who sat near the 
pulpit, was turned to gold in its light, and 
the minister, who, we used to think, could 
never die, so good was he, had concluded 
“ application ” and “ exhortation ’ and tho 
village choir were singing the last hymn and 
the tune was Corinth. 
It is years—wo dare not think how many 
—since then, and “the prayers of David 
the son of Jesse are ended, ” and the choire 
are scattered and gone. The girl with bluo 
eyes that sang alto, and the girl with black 
eyes that sang air; the oyes of the one were 
like a clear June Heaven at night, and those 
of the other like the same Heaven at noon. 
They both became wives, and both mothers, 
and they both died. Who shall say they 
are not singing Corinth still, where Sabbaths 
never wane, and congregations never brack 
up! There they sat Sabbath after Sabbath 
hv the square column at the right of the 
“‘leader, ” and to our young eyes, they were 
passing beautiful, and to our young ears, 
their tones were tho very “ soul of music. ’ 
That column bears still their pencilled 
names as they wrote them in those days in 
life’s June 183-, ere dreams of change had 
o’ereome their spirit like a summer’s cloud. 
Alas! that with the old Singers, most of 
the sweet old tunes have died upon the air, 
but they linger in memory, and they shall 
yet be sung again, in tho sweet re-union ol 
song that shall take place, by ayd by, in a 
hall whose columns are beams of morning 
light, whoso ceiling is pure pearl, whose 
floors are all gold, and where hair never 
turns silvery, and hearts never grow old.— 
Then she that sang Alto and she that sang 
Air, will he in their places once more, for 
what could the choir do without them ?— 
Chicago Journal. 
Cemeteries.— This is the season for beau¬ 
tifying the “cities of the dead.” Set weep¬ 
ing willows over the graves of friends, and 
cover their final resting-place with a well 
selected assortment of perennials, and their 
annual bloom will take , from tho cemetery 
thaf gloomy appearance for which they have 
already too* much fame. Violets, ■flowering 
almonds, roses, of the various kinds, but es¬ 
pecially the white or bridal rose, wo think 
far preferable to many things we have seen 
in such places. Such wild flowers as will 
grow in these places are also well. Try it. 
Some girls in kissing, purse up their 
mouths as if they were about to perform on 
the flageolet. This is wrong. Kissing is a 
luxury that should bo indulged in with “ an 
appetite,” and not nibbled at as if it were 
“ a pizon.”

Van Every’s Corn, Bean & Seed planter. 
PATENTED 1851. 
riUHS newly invented Machine thoroughly combines all 
| the necessary points requisite to facilitate tlie planting 
of Corn, Beans, &c., in hills from IS inches to 9 l’eet apart, 
uud at a space of from 'Mi feet, to 21 inches. And by a 
change of cylinder will sow any manner of small seeds in 
drills, in a more expeditious manner, than uny hitherto 
known. And from simple construction, perfect operation, 
and a great decrease of gearing, its durability is evidently 
substantial, and may be easily drawn by one horse, ma¬ 
king two or three drills at a time. 
The above Machine is manufactured at Victor, N. Y., 
and for sale at tho Implement and Seed Store of J. RAP¬ 
ALJE & CD., 65 Buffalo St., Rochester, who are tlie only 
agents in this section of the country.
