AUTUMN. 
BY H. II. CLEMENTS. 
In the dim woods, sadly sighing, 
Slowly, Summer lies a dying. 
Round the mother they are leaving 
Leaves, like children gather grieving 
Piteously in knots, above her, 
Cold and trembling, violets hover. 
Hark! a chime of bells is tolling 
From the breeze’s belfry—rolling, 
O'er the troubled tide of life, 
E’er the grave lias hushed its strife. 
Every thing is now in keeping; 
Solemn trees are standing weeping. 
Soon, a snowy shroud will cover 
Her pale lily limbs all ever.

AUTUMN IS FADING. 
The beauty of Autumn is fading ! 
We are not commencing an essay, yet out 
of our heart’s fullness we must note a pass 
ing farewell to that season of the year 
whose influences steal so gratefully and 
calmly over us. With a tear in our nib we 
speak of the season so fleetly passing by.— 
More and more, and more lovely, the Au¬ 
tumn appears as years gather upon us ; and 
at each farewell, we turn with a sadder smile 
to linger and love. We look out with a 
feeling of regret. IIow beautiful, and yet 
fading. Like the hectic flush upon the 
cheek of the consumptive, the crimson and 
scarlet hues linger upon the forest, but its 
very loveliness is the language of decay.— 
So fade and fall the aspirations of earth.— 
But over the resting place of the virtuous 
and honored dead, there is a flood light of 
crimson and gold brightly lingering, even 
’till ha footsteps of the winter of death 
wither all that is earthly. 
Here we are in the old woods, alone and 
happy. As young and guileless as in years 
gone by, the heart beats in this great tem¬ 
ple of Nature. We will have ono mnrecom- 
munion with the winds and streams, and 
rustling leaves, before Winter begins weav¬ 
ing its shroud over all. One more pilgrim¬ 
age to the leaf crowned altars ! 
Wo turn gladly from the jarring tramp of 
the city. Ah ! how calm — how gratefully 
sweet are all the influences here. Away 
with drawing-room etiquette, we will stretch 
out at full length upon tho rustling leaves 
and velvet green of the sward. We look 
upward through tho openings in the trees 
where the sky lifts its blue dome, its clouds 
of fleecy white drifting by as we gaze. 
—And so drift away the dreams of life! 
Tho brooklet trills its low melody, and 
here where tho rich sunlight flecks the 
ground, a swarm of insects on gossamer 
wings, dance and mingle their softer hum. 
The yellow bird, with a note half gay, half 
sad, comes rising and falling to tho forest’s 
edge and picks a dainty meal from the this¬ 
tle beside the fence. Here comes a downy 
sail, now lifted tip and then falling to the 
earth. So with the good deeds of men — 
They are swept onward and on some spot, 
linger, as the seed to germinate and bear 
fruit. 
A whole cloud of black birds have perch¬ 
ed upon the old, dry hemlock. What chat¬ 
terboxes they are !■—all talking at tho same 
time and in a language at the same moment 
strangely musical and confused. They need 
no “outside sentinel” for the subject of 
their discussion is not precisely understood 
by us. Their voices aro clear, however, 
showing that they never wet their whistles 
witli anything but good liquor. What a 
contrast with their noise—the dream-like 
song of tho cricket under this old log. 
What a carpet of leaves around us.— 
What a wealth of varied and gorgeous col¬ 
oring, every die mingling and blending and 
fading out until tho eye is weary for the 
moment and closes upon the scene. Gold 
and crimson, and scarlet, and tho deeper 
hued russet and brown, are all woven in 
beautiful harmony. Upon the maple there 
is yet a cloud of golden canvass and of rus¬ 
set upon the oak. Through a vista and far 
off on the distant hills, the Autumnal haze 
hangs like a curtain of blue gauze; overall, 
the mellow sunshine resting in its uncloud¬ 
ed splendor. All is calm, lovely, dreamy. 
IIow much of happiness a toot-fall would 
now disturb ! Away over tho hill there is 
a cloud of dust going up and tho hum of 
the thresher comes faintly to the ear. Yet 
it mingles not discordantly with that great 
anthem which, in its low, deep eloquence 
this day goes up. 
But this broad island of sunlight has si¬ 
lently removed up the hill and leu us in the 
shadows. We did not hear tho footsteps on 
tho leaves ! The footsteps of time are as 
voiceless. 
But a few days and the breast of Winter 
will scatter the last Autumn leaf, and over 
all, tho snowy shroud will be woven. Yet 
blissful hope ! From tho wintry tomb of 
tho seasons, new flowers, and blades, and 
whispering leaves will spring up, and the 
warm sunshine and raindrops linger there. 
And so after the winter of life, new hopes 
will burst forth to bloom perennial in the 
sunshino of Eternal Summer. 
Adieu ! There is joy mingled with our 
sadness for Autumn will come again ! — 
Cayuga Chief. 
TOUCHING ANECDOTE. 
We find the following in an essay of 
Proctor Barry Cornwall : 
“ Thero is something inexpressively touch¬ 
ing in an anecdote which 1 have hoard of a 
foreign artist. He was an American, and 
had come hither (ho and his young wife) to 
paint for fame—and a subsistence. They 
were strangers in England ; they had to 
fight against prejudice and poverty; but 
their affection for each other solaced them 
under every privation, every frown of for¬ 
tune. They could think, at least ‘ all the 
way over ’ the groat Atlantic ; and their fLn- 
cy (little cherished here,) had leisure to be 
busy among the friends and scenes which 
they had left behind. A gentleman who 
had not seon them for some time, went ono 
day to the artist’s painting room, and ob¬ 
serving him pale and worn, inquired about 
his health, and afterwards regarding his 
wife. lie answered, only, ‘ She has left me,’ 
and proceeded in a hurried way with his 
work. She was dead ! and he was left alone 
to toil, and get monoy, and mourn. The 
heart in which he had hoarded all his se¬ 
crets, all his hopes, was cold ; and Fame it¬ 
self was but a shadow.” 
A large share of the wrong doing and 
speaking of life comes out of tho mind’s list- 
lessnoss. That we should bo listless, how¬ 
ever, about what is right, shows how degen¬ 
erate wo are.

KEEP YOUR HENS OUT OF MY GARDEN 
Col. R. and Gen. M. were formerly neigh¬ 
bors, and had gardens adjoining each other. 
One fine morning in spring about the time 
of planting. Col. R. met his friend, the Gen¬ 
eral, in the street, boiling over with rage, 
who addressed him after this wise: 
“ Confound your darn'd old hens, Colo¬ 
nel theyv’e been in my garden and scratch¬ 
ed tho beds every which way ; 1 shall have 
to make them all over again ; can’t you shut 
them up this summer ?’ 
“Keep cool. General,” said the Colonel, 
“ I prefer that my hens should have plenty 
of sun, air, exercise, and food, and I don't 
believe that your garden seeds will hurt 
them at all. However, if they trouole you 
much, shoot ’em — shoot ’em.” 
“ I will, Colonel,” said tho still more 
excited General, “ I'll do it, blamed if 
I don’t,” and turning around on his heel, 
marched away, mad as a wild cat. 
The next morning as the Colonel was sip¬ 
ping his colfee, the family was startled by 
the “ hang,” bang,” of fire arms the cause of 
which was soon ascertained. The Colonel, 
on going to tho division fence, looked over 
and saw Genl. M. in tho heat of bloody mur¬ 
der. Six fine specimens of tho “dung hill" 
fowl were flouncing about on tho ground un¬ 
willing just yet to yield up their gizzards to 
the gourmand. 
“ Aha, General ! so you aro executing 
your threat, are you ?” 
“ To be sure, 1 told you I'd do it. and I'll 
be darned if I don’t shoot all the rest, if you 
don’t shut ’em up. But hero, take the 
thievish critters; 4 don’t want them they 
are too highly seasoned with shot for my 
family.” 
“Thank you, thank you, General M., just 
wait a day or two before you kill any more, 
until we eat these up, and then I’ve no ob¬ 
jection to having the rest shot.” 
Now, Col. R. was rather jealous of h’s 
rights, and, moreover, as fiery as Mars in his 
disposition, and it was a great mystery to 
the General how he could keep so cool about 
this matter. Tho sequel will show. 
In two or three days after, three more 
fine fat chickens wero thrown into the Col¬ 
onel's garden, and duly taken care of by the 
cook. 
At last the General “ smelt a rat.” His 
own chickens were missing, and tho egg 
basket hung on the peg quite empty, to the 
utter astonishment of his good wife who had 
never known a similar occurrence before. 
li Col. R.,” said the General, “ have I kill¬ 
ed all your hens yet!” 
“ Killed all my hens, General,” slowly re¬ 
peated Col. R , ’* why I have nut owned a 
living hen these three years ! ! ’ 
The General sloped. He had shot and 
given to Col. R., nine of his best layers.—
