j ., k ANGRY WORDS. Angry words are lightly spoken Iu a ra-sh and thoughtless hour ; Brighest link of life are broken By their deep Insidious power ; Hearts Inspired by wannest feeling, Ne'er before by anger stirred, Oft are rent past human feeling, Ry a single angry word. For the Grand River Times. A MIMiOR OF THE PAST. How gloriously looms up tho ever-to-be-remembered, and long-afjo-ibrgotten scenes of the early and dowy day dawn of the rosy check ed morning of innocent and happy childhood, as we Bit ourselves down in moody musings, in a retrospective view of tho past. It carries one back to the Arcadean seats, of the bird songs, of the incipient stages of life. All the melo dies of quail's singing Bob White," to the chirping of tho chattering swallows of the old barn, where first I ascended on high to play on the sweet scented mow of freshly mown clover so lately brought in from the green meadow, where the cowslip and appletrco nourished in all. their beauty and yielded such delicious fruit, to say nothing of the cider which in thoso days was so general a beverage, especially on tho long winter evenings which wcro occupied with eongand story; of daring deed of our fathers, which we heard from tho lips of our superannua ted and well beloved grandmother. Wiln mo kind reader, these scenes are fresh in mind; the jolly husking bees, made more so by an occa sional glass of the above mentioned cider, but which has gone almost out of use, since tho glorious temperance reformation, which was in the year 1826. That barn! oh, that bam! Who can describe its beauties, as they rise o'er fancy's hill and spread themselves out on mem ory's page in lengthened array ? That barn with weathercock up perched at top, fit scm blance of the crowing, caekling flock that round the yard in beauty's pride outspread. That barn! whose weather-beaten boards have long withstood tho storms of life, and furnish thus a lesson, faithful to youth and age. That barn ! it was there I first learned to swing tho flail and jump from the numerous beams that supported the massive roof. But I fear I weary your pa tienco by lingering thus. Theso thoughts I've tried to banish, I've hurled them from me, but they come crowding thickly up for utterance we will chango the scene. Seo thou yonder house, the seat of happiness, the windows sha ded by lattice, overgrown with eweet briar, which when heaven directs the warm refic ing shower upon the bosom of the panting earth yields a rich perfume, and gently shutting out tho light of the celestial orb? Como with me and set wo thero in yonder porch, while viewing the setting sun, as it slowly recedes from view, its great light and heat diminishing as its last rays aro indistinctly seen glancing through the branches (tinging them with a thou sand variegated colors), of yonder moss-cover cd, venerable monarch of the orchard, laden with tiao rich and mellow fruit of autumn; mark well the spot, for thero aro associations connec ted with it from childhood, indelibly stamped upon my memory. Oh, memory I heaven's groatest curse and blessing to erring man ; as it is fraught and laden with recollections, pleas ing or remorseful. Oh, memory ! mysterious, incomprehensible agent; thou great connector of the past and present but stop; forgive me reader this digression. Go with mo by yonder creek, which we in younger days when the rain of spring had.increascd its noisy bubbling vva ters, in boyish prido called river; truly boyish pride but now in after years, I like not the name I know not why, it matters not ; pursue we our way following its devious winding path, we havo arrived ata rustic seat, erected beneath tho cooling shade of the tree where last we be held the sun, dispensing light and beauty, and to which I directed your attention, while sitting in the porch, by remarking that associations were connected with this spot, arousing deep and lasting emotions. Myriads of recollections press not upon me! back busy thoughts, pow ers matchless but with tho Almighty, as this place testifies. Oft havo I sported beneath this shade in boyish innocence, and also that of af ter years. Oh, happy past ! again hear the tones that thrilled my car and filled ray heart with love. Tis hero whero first I imprinted the kiss of affection upon tho cheek of the companion of my youth. She was a pale, fair girl, her eye of jet shaded with heavy lashes, but sho was too pure, too holy, to remain in this sinful world, and ere long wo gazed a last farewell upon her clear, transparent brow; death had marked her for his victim tho hectic cheek and hollow cough, told too plainly that consumption in his ghostly form was slowly but surely doing tho work of tho grim destroyer. Affection, love, and wealth, vainly assayed to stay his hand, but the fading form grew weaker day by day, and the chilling conviction was forced upon us, that her steps wero bound for tho untrodden shore, where the race of immortals begin. 'Twas but a few days before her departure, that 6ho met me hero reader here by this rustic scat here whero we had revealed to each other the strong est, deepest feelings of which our naturo is sus ceptible hero whero my early hapiness com menced here whero this night that vision was to be blasted. Reader, it was herself, that evo that raised the vail that has clouded my reason, and shown me that despite such lovo as ours, the claims of tho grave wero. stronger than earthly ties. I listened calmly, although my heart was ready to burst calmly because of the den feeling emotions, betrayed by my Eye, and I knew that her auul was wrung with poign-1 ant anguish., Tho excitement' of that evening was too much for her frame, already weakened by disease and tho uext Sabbath wo conveyed her to her last home. I stood" by tho sido of her gravo and as I listened to tho clods falling one by one on the coflin which contained her lifeless form, it seemed a if every recollection of the past, every tie that bound me to tho pres ent,-every hope I had for tho future, lay buried there. Since then I have wandered through life, aimless, without an object, settled princi pies, evanescent hopes blasted, feelings crush ed, wrecked in tho storm that like the match less hurricane, leaves not a vestigo to mark tho ruin wrought along its all devouring path. Why is it that I recur again to theso scenes? why har row my memory with these thoughts ? why not crush out with tho might of a strong will, tho recollections of theso sorrows do you ask ? It is because memory is stronger than will. It i because of that principlo within us that makes us cherish tho memory of those we love, altho' thero may be sorrow connected with it. Road er I have done. Tho New York Dutchman is not far from the fact in the 44 human natur" aspect taken below: Wo all "look down" on somebody. The man of bullion looks down on the shop-keeper, tho shop-keeper on his clerks; clerks turn up their nosas at mechanics, while mechanics aro above associating with hod carriers ; seamstress es won't speak to radish peddlers, while the radish girls think it 44 low and wulger" to speak to tho little huzzies what keep tho crossings clean. Who the latter 44 look down" on we have not learned, although there is no doubt that they consider themselves 44 far above" somebody. Queer, isn't it? It is a foolish sheep that makes the wolf his confessor. A blow from the frying-pan blacks ono, tho' it may not hurt. Resist not tho laws; they aro tho safe-guard of tho people. An ardent sensibility to tho impression of great vittues and abilities, accompanied with a generous oblivion of tho little imperfections with which they are joined, is one of tho surest indications of a generous character. No man is so truly great, whatever other ti tles to eminence ho may have, as when, after taking an erroneous step, ho resolves to 44 tread that step backwards." Let every man endeavor to make all the world happy, by a strict performance of his duty to God and man, and tho mighty work of refor mation will soon bo accomplished. Truth shines brighter, the longer wo view it in contrast with its natural foil fiction. TO THE AFFLICTED. OAK-OIL, llic Panacea, the l'olf lve C'm-ntlvr.

Tho Weekly Times Will be under the Editorial management and control of Henry J. Raymond; and whiio it will maintain firmly and zealously those principles which he may deem essential to the public good, and which aro held by tho great Whig party of the United States more nearly than any other political organization, its columns will be free from bigoted devotion to narrow interests, to communications upon every subject of public importance. In its Political and Social discussions, the Times will seek to be conservative, in such away as shall best promote needful Reform. It will endeavor to perpetuate the good, and to avoid the evil, which the Past has developed. While it will strive to check all rash iimovation,and so defeat all schemes for destroying established and beneficent institu tions, its best sympathies and co-operations will be given to every just effort to reform society, to infuse higher elements of well being into our po litical and social organizations, and to improve the condition and tho character of our fellow men.

While it will assert and exercise the right freely to discuss every subject of public interest, it will not countenance any improper interference, on the part of the people of one locality, with the institu tions, or even the prejudices, of any other. It will seek to allay, rather than excite, agitation: to extend industry, temperance and virtue: to encourage and advance Education: to promote Economy, concord and justice in every section of our country : to elevate and enlighten public sen timent: and to substitute reason for prejudice, a cool and intelligent judgment for passion, in all public action and in all discussions of public af fairs.

New York is the great Centre, and here, at the fountain head of novelty, incident, litera ture, and foreign news, the Home Journal is prin ed and published. Its editors, ( Geo. P. Morris & N. P. Willis,) devote their entire time, skill and experience, to tho task of giving each week, every thing Worth knowing. Thev particularly keep an eye on all the Whims and Novelties of New York Society, presenting sketches of the Belles of our Time, and careful portraits of the distinguished public characters. In addition to this, the utmost pains are taken, by translations from French Jour nals, and by Foreign Correspondence, to prepare the reports of Fashionable Gossip of Paris, as will excecdingl instruct and amuse. We present to our readers, the facts and ontlines of all news. In our literary department, we aim at sketches and readable criticisms, and in our condensations of the fecund productions of the vast newspaper' world of England, wc aim to avoid the tiresome, and the local, and transfer to our columns the pick of English information and brilliancy, while we en deavor to select with a true sense of pure morals, true wit, and genuine humor. In addition to the above, we propose to give, in the course of the com ing volume, one entirely new feature, which wo think will particularly interest the Ladies, viz: A Series of Returned Love Letters. This being a species of composition that intre.sts all readers, wo trust to make the numbers the Home Jour nal more eagerly looked for, and more carefully preserved than ever. Wc have also new correspon dents in London and Paris, who will send us much that could never reach us through Foreign Jonr nals. As a New Years Present from n Gentleman ton Lady. The Home Journal Is one, of whicH the remembrance is renewed every week, and ills unsurpassed os a gift in good taste. Terms.

With the New Vol ume the prico will be reduced from Fire to Three Dollars a year, or 2.) cents per numocr. 1 lie con tents of the Knickerbocker are entirely original, and its character is sufficiently established to ren der any remarks upon it unnecessary. The pub lisher has been led to reduce tho price of subscrip tion from a knowledge of the fact that thousands who wished to read the Knickerbocker were kept from its perusal solely on account of tho expense, and he believes that many more who purchase without regard to quality, so much as quantity, will by a low price be induced to become acquain ted with Knickerbocker, and tHus become its steady patrons. There will be no change in tho fonn.fdzo or character of tho Magazine except a change always continued forthe Better. The terms will be in futuro Threo Dollar per onnum;strictly in advance.
