JUNE.
BY W. €. RRVANT,
1 gazed upon the glorions sky,
And the green mountains round,
Aad thought, that when T came 1o lie
Within the silent ground,
"T'were pleasunt, that in flowery June,
When brooks sent up a checrfol tune,
And groves a joyful sonnd,
The sexton’s hand, my gruve 1o make,
The rich, green monntain turf shonld break.
A cell within the frozen mound,
A coffin, borne through strect,
Aud icy clouds above it rolled,
\Vhi{e fierce the tempest beat—
Away '=l will not think of these—
Blue be the sky and soft the brecze,
Farth green beneath the feet.
And be l{m damp mound gently prest
Tuto my narrow plice of rest.
There, through the long, long Summer hours,
The golden light should lic,
And, thick, voung herbs and gronpsof tlowers
Stand in their beanty by ;
The oriole shonld build and tell
His love tale, close behind my cell:
The idle buttertly
Should rest him there, and there be heurd
The housewife bee and humming bird,
And what, if cheerful shouts, at noon,
Come from the village sent
Or songs of maids, beneath the moon,
With fairy langhter blent.
And what, iff in the evening light,
Betrothed lovers walk in sight
Of my low monument = '
I wonld the lovely scene around
Might know no sadder sight nor sound,
1 know, [ know, I should not sce
The season'’s glorious show,
Nor wounld its brightness shine for me,
Nor its wild music flow ;
But if, around my place of sleep,
The friends I love should come to weep,
They might not haste to go.
Soft airs, and songs, and light, and bloomn,
Shouid keop them lingering by my tomb,
T'hese to their softened hearts should bear
The thonght of what has been,
And speak of ene who came to shure
The gladness of the scene ;
Whose part in all the powp that fills
The circait of the Snmmer hills
Js=—that lus grave is green,
And deeply wonld their hearts rejoice
To hear agnin lus hiving voice.

A TRUE STORY.
The following is copied from a New York
paper printed o the year 1776, and is relat
ed as a fact, Sumilar cases often occur in
these days, that a parent, having given his all
into the hands of lus children are obliged to
spend the remainder of his days in poverty
and want.
At chis time there is living st Havlem, an
old man who relates the following remarka
ble story of himself. He was possessed ol a
pretty good farin, with slaves and every thing
uelessary for bis business, and had but one
child, a son who, having married, it was a
greed that the young couple should live in
the house with the parent. s he was a widow
er. Things weat exceedingly well for some
time, when the son proposed to his parent
that he should make over to him his estate,
promising to build a new house and other
wise improve the farm. The father, through
persuasion, gave him a deed or gilt of it, and
every thing belonging 1o it
After a few years, as the father grew old,
he grew a little fretful und dissatisfied, while
the son thinking he had nothing more to ex
pect {rom him, torgot his filial duty, and used
his aged father worse than he did his servants.
The old man was no longer permitted to eat
at the table with his son and wife, but com
pelled to take his meals inthe chimuey cor
ner, and continually otherwise ill-used by
them. The old man ate his victuals daily
from a woodeu bowl, which his son had made
for him. His.grand-soun saw lus father make
this bowl, and set about making just such
another. Deing asked by his father what he
made it for, be auswered, ** For you to cat
out of when you grow as old as grand(ather.”
Although this ought to bave turned his heart,
and made him reflect that as he dealt by llis
father, he might expect to be dealt with by
his children when be grew old, still it had no
effect upon him, and the ill-usage was carri
ed to such a height that he could no longer
bear it, but left the house and went to a re-
Jation and neighbor of his, declaring that if
his friend could not help Lim get his farm
back again, he should be obliged to come
and live with him.
His friend answered that he might come
and live with hi'm, and, if he would follow lLis
directions, he would help him get his estate a
gain. “Take this bag of dollars, carry it
into your room, at your son's, shut it up well
in your chest, and about the time you expect
they will call you down to dinuer, shut your
door, and have ull your dollars spread on a
table in the middie of the room. When they
call you, make a noise with them, by sweep
in& them from the table into the bag again.”
I'he bait took completely. The wile had
peeped though the key-hole, and saw thedol
lars spread out on the table, and told it to
her husband.* When the old man came
down, they iusisted on his sitting at the ta
ble with them, and treated him with uncom
mon civility.
The old man related to his friend what e
had doue, who gave him directions what to
do if bis son asked him (or the money.
After a few days, the sou discovered tlie
old man very husily engaged in counting out
his money, and at the vext meal time uasked
what money it was that he had been count
ing. el
*Ouly some movey I bad received for the
discharge of one of the bonds I had stauding
out. 1 expect more in a few days, and I fear
I shall be obliged to take MY, Ne—'g farm,
upon which I have a mortzage, as he is not a
ble to raise the money, and if the farm is
sold it will not fetch as much as will discharge
the mortgage.”
After a few days, the son told the father
lie intended to build 4 hiouse on the farm, and
would be glad i Lis father would let him
bave tiat movey.
** Yes, child, all that 1 have is coming to
you: 1 intend giviug you the bonds and
mortgage 1 have, but then | thiuk it will be
best to have it put all together ina new decd
of gift. I will get veighbor ], e to call
here and draw a new one.”
Accordingly, his fricn) and cousin, who
Lad devised the scheme, came to the house,
the son gave the old decd, that another might
be drawn of it. When the old man had got
the instrument iu his Land, in the presence
of his friend he broke off the scal, and com
umtted the writing to the fire, Soy )
“Burn! cursed instrument of my folly and
my wmisery !—and you, wy dutiful children,
as this estate is all my owa again, you must
remove immediately, unless you will ke con
tent to be my temants, | {uve lecarned by
sud experience, that it is best for a parent 1y
hold the loaf wnder his own « rme=and that
one lather can better muintaio ten children,
thas ten con a father.”
Ney's father, who loved him tenderly asthe
son of his pride and Ihe glory of his name,
was never told of 1« lEnominious death, He
was ot this time eighty-eight years of age,
and Jived 10 be 4 hundeed years old. fl«
saw by the mourning weeds on hisfamily that
some catastrophe had happened, and his fath
er's heart 10l him 100 well where the holt bl
struek ; but he made uo NQuiries, and, thou : )
he lived twelve yeurs after neys rmentioned his
son's name, ln«!wzu never told of Lis fate,
| THE HERRING PIE. _
It was a cold winter's evening: the rich
banker Brounker had drawn his easy char
I close into the corner of the stove, and sat
! smoking his long clay pipe with great com
placency, while his intimate friend, Van
Grote, employed in exactly the same wman
ner, occupied the opposite corner. All was
' guiet in the house, for Brounker's wife and
children were gone to » masked ball, and,
secare from fear of interruption, the two
friends indulged in a confidential couversa
ton.
« 1 cannot think,” said Van Grote, ** why
you should refuse your consent to the mar
viage. DBerkenrode can give his daughter a
good fortune, and you say that your son is
desperately in love with her.”
I w 1 Don't object toit," said Brounker. It
is mv wite who will not hear of it.”
« And what reason has shie for refusing?"
“Oune which 1 cannot tell you,” said his
friend, sinking his voice.
“Oh! a mystery. Come, ont with it
You know 1 have always been fravk und o
pen with yon, even to giving you my opinion
of your absu rd jealously ef your wife.”
“Jealous of'my wife? non sense! Have
I not just sent her to a masked ball.”
] dou't wonder yon boast ofit. | should
like to have seen you do as much when you
were first married. T'o be sure, youhad rea
son to look sharply after hier, for she was the
pretiiest woman in Awsterdam. Unfortu
nately she has takensuch advantagesof your
jove, that the gray mare has become the bet
ter horse, and you refuse an advantageous
mateh for yonr son, to gratily her caprice.”
“You are quite wrong, my good friend.
I never allow any one to be master here but
mysell: and in the present instance 1 cannot
blame Clotilda, The seeret of her refusal
lies in a herring pie.”
“Yes, a herring pie. You wmay remem
ber it was a favorite dainty of mine, and that
my wife could not endure even the smell of
it. Well, during the first years of my mar
vige, I must confess that f was a httle—a
very littie jeatous of Clotilda. My situation
obliged e to keep open house, and among
the young sparks who visited us, none gave
me so muech uneasiness as the handsome Col.
Berkenrode. The reputation that he had
already acquired for gallantry was enough to
create alarm, and the marked attention he
patd my wife, convineed me it was well found
ed. What could 1do? It was impossible
to forbid him the house, for he had itin his
power to deprive me of the governmnent con
tracts:in other words, to vuin me. After ponder
ing decply on thesubjeet, Idecided to do noth
g, until the danger should become nnmi
nent ; all that was necessary was to know how
things really stood. Having just purchased
this house, | caused a secretcloset to be made
behiud the stove here. 1t communnicates
with my private room, and from it 1 couid
overliear every thing that passed in this a
partment without risk of being discovered.—
CThank God 1 have had no use for it for the
List twenty years, and, indeed, 1 do not even
kuow what has become of the key. Satistied
with this precaution, 1 did nqt hesitate to
leave Cllotilda when any of her admivers paid
her a visit, though T promise you that some
of the colouel's gallant speeches made me
wince.
~ “Upon my word,"” interrupted his friend,
“you showed a most commendable patience,
lu your place I should have countented my
cselt with forbidding my wife to receive lis
visits,"
| “There spoke the old bachelor. DBut as |
- did not want to drive her hLeadlong into his
arms, I went a different way to work. Dy
Catter day I was forced to listen to the ivsidu
ous arguments of the seducer. My wife—l
must own mude a stout delence—at one time
tried vidicule, at another entreaty, to deter
bim from his pursuit of her. e begun to
lose hope proportion as 1 gained it, tillone
day he bethought himself of threatening to
blow out his brains if she would not show him
some compassion. Moved at this proof of
the strength of his passion, she burst into
tears, and pleaded that ghe was not free—in
short she gave him to understand that 1 was
the obstacle to his happiness. Berkenrode
was too well skilled in the art of seduction
not to see that he had gained a poiut. He
raved, cursed me as the cause of his misery,
and tried to obtain a promise from her in case
she should become a widow. She stopped
him peremptorily : but I never closed an eye
that might, and Clotilda, though she did not
know that T watched her, was as uneasy as
myself. On the {following day a circumstance
occurred that mcreased heragitation. While
bat breakfast, a message came from the cook
asking to see me alone. 1 desied him to
Ccome in (as I was not in the habit of interfer-
Cing in domestic afiairs) and communicate his
Cbusiness in my wife's presence. When the
man entered he wis as pale as a ghost, and
carcely seemed to know what he was about,
CAt last he told me that he had received a
, packet containing a small bottle, three hun
| dred guldens, and a note in which he was re
! quested to put the contents of the former iuto
the first herring pie he ehiould prepare for me.
He was assurred that he might do so without
fear, as the contents of the bottle were quite
harmlese, and would give a delicious flavor to
the pie. Au additional reward was promised
if he complied with the request and kept his
cown council. The honest tellow who was so
| much attached to me, said he was convinced
there must be something wrong in the affair,
| and should not be happy until bottle and mou
cey were out of his hands. 1 poured a few
drops of the liquid on a lump of sugar, and
gave it to wmy wife's lap-dog. It fell into con
vulsions, and died in a few minutes. The
case was now plain; there had been an at
tempt to poison me. Never shall T forget
Clotilda’s pale face as she threw herself weep
mg iuto my arms. * Poison! A murderer !
she exclaimed, clasping me as il to protect
Cme from danger; * Merciful Heaven protect
"us both!" 1 consoled her with the assurauce
that I was thankful to my unkvown enemy,
- who was the means of showing me how much
<he loved me. That day Berkenrode came at
the usnal hour; but in vain did I take my seat
in my hiding place; he was vot admitted. 1°
alterwards found that she had sent him a let
tery threatening if ever he camne again that her
Chusband should be informed of all that had
Cpussed. He made attempts to soften Lier res
olution, but to no purpese, and a year afters
wards he married. No acquaintance has ever
cexisted between the famihies; and now you
kuow why my wife refuses her consent to vur
son's marriage with Berkemode's daughter,”
[ cannot blame her,” said Van Grote,—
Who would have thought that Barkenrode,
a soldier, and a man of honor, could have
been capable of such a rascally deed 1
- Halha! ba!laughed Brounker; * and do
you really think it was the general who scat
the poison !
% Why, who else I l
v Myself, to be sure! The whole was my
own contrivance, and it cost me three huny
dred guldens in @ present to my cooek; but it
was money well laid out, for | saved my wile,
and got rid of her troublesome lap-dog at the
same time." ‘
“Do you know, Brounker, T think it was
rather a shabby trick 10 leave Berkenrode un.
der such an imputation ; and now that your |
son's happiness depends ou your wife's being
nndeceived e’
“1 am well aware of all that, but to unde. '
ceive her now is not so easy as you think.—
How can | expect her to disbelieve a circum- |
stante iu which for the last twenty years she
has put implicit faith.”
He was interrupted by the entrance of Viow ‘
Brounker., Her cheeks were flushed, and she
saluted Van Grote rather stiffly. ‘
“What! not at the ball, Clotilda?" asked ;
her husbhand. ‘
“No !l had a bad headache,” she replied,
wand Mawrice has promised to take charge of
his sisters. But I have come to tell you that
| have been thinking over this marriage with
Mina Berkenrode, and have altered my mind
on that subject. In short, 1 shall withdraw,
my opposition to the match.”
The friends looked at each other in aston
ishingnt.
“ By the by," she continued, * here is the
key I found some time agoj I think it must
belong to you." | ' |
“ Well, Clotilda, said her husband, striving
to hile his confusion as he took the key.
s this is good news a'out the marriage——"
“ Suppose you and your friend celebrate it
by a supper. T'here is a herring pie in the
house, and you need not fear that it 1s poison
ed.”
She left the room. Brounker looked fool
ish and Van Grote vubbed his hands as he ex
claimed, *Caught in your own trap! He
who digs a pit for his enemy shall fall into it
himsell."”
“ Nevertheless," replied Brounker, I think
I have got well out of mine.”
JOHN HANCOCK.
| The memory of this great patriot, states-
Lman, and orator, has been most grossly neg
lectedj==while hundreds, whose services 1
| the canse of independence were not a tythe
"of his, have been eulogized to the skies, aud
live on canvass and in marble, this great pa-
Ctriot's name but seldom finds a place, even
when celebrating that freedom he was among
the first, if not the very first, to risk his life in
obtuiming. 1 have for years noticed his neg
lect with feelings of unteigned regret. Nev
er was u man more beloved by any people
than Hancock was Ly the people of Massa
chusetts. With the exception of a single
year, when Bowdoin was put in, he was for
sixteen successive years elecied their gov
ernor, and closed his patriotic and illustrious
life in that high station. Hundreds of times
have 1 seen nm, when so worn out and erip
pled by disease that he could not stand, tuken
tfrom his earriage into the arms of two fiithiul
servants (who regulinly attended for the pur
pose) and earried up to the council chamber,
a distance of nearly fifty yards trom the street,
The last time he addressed his fellow citi
zcus was the most impressive scene 1 ever
witnessed. A town meeting was called upon
a question of great excitement. Old Faneuil
Hall could not contoin the people, and an ad
journment took place to the Old South Meet
ing House; Hancock was brought in and car-
Cvied up into the front gallery, where the on.
enjamin Austin supported him on the right,
and the celebrated Dr. Chas. Jarvis upon the
left, while he addressed the multitude. The
Gov, commenced by stating to his fellow citi
zens that **he felt” it was the last tme he
should address them—that the ** seeds of mor
tality were fast growing within him.” The
iall of a pin might have been heard, such a
death-like silence pervaded the listening erowd
during the whole of his animated and soul
stitring speech, while tears rolled down the
cheeks ol thousands. T'he meeting ended,
lie was taken to his cauriage and conveyed
home, but never aga‘n appeared in public;
lhis death followed soon after. The corpse
was embowelled, and kept for eight days, to
give an opportunity to the citizens from the
distant parts of the State to render the last
tribute of respect to hismemory. They came ‘
by thousands and tens of thousands ; the pro
cession was an bour and a half in passing.— ‘
T'he post of honor among the wilitary was
'given to the Concord Light lofantry, umlc-r‘
Captain Davis, the same who commanded
~them on the ever memorable nineteenth of
April, 1775, 1t was the most solemn and in
teresting, and incompurably the longest funeral
procession | ever saw. Samuel Adams, who
was Lieutenant Governor, became Governor
ex officio by the death of Hauncock, aud fol
lowed the bier, (there were no hearses with
nodding plumes in these days) us chief mourn
er 3 hut the venerable patriot could not endure
the fatigue, and was compelled to rvetire from
the procession,
- Huaueock, before the revolution, was a man
of vast fortune, and though he permitted it 1o
flow in the cause of his country, like the wa
ters, hie had stull enough left to support a
splendid establishmeunt, and lived and entey
tuined like a prince. His generosity was un
“hounded. I well remember that one evening
in each week during summer a full band of
Cmusic at his own expense, attended in front
of his venerable stone mansion to entertain the
citizens who weve promenading on the mall.
He seldom left Boston to visit at any distance,
I but when he did he was escorted by a volun
teer tioop of cavalry, who held themselv es in
' readiness for that purpose. He was very fond
ol joke and repartee, so much so that a wor
- thy citizen of Boston, Nathaniel Balch, Esq.,
ca hatter, who never fajed to appear among
. the invited guests at his hospitable board, ob- ‘
tained the unenvied appellation of ** the Goy-
L ernor's Jester.,” The celebrated Brissot, in
' his travels to the United States, speaks of his
i meeting this gentleman at Hancock's table; |
L and such was the mutual attachment between
' the Governor and Mr. Baleh, that it the for
"mer was called away, no matter what distance,
' Squire Baleh attended him like his shadow,
| which the following cirenmstance most hap
| pily illustrates : Gov. Hancock was called on
to visit the then provinee of Maine, on which |
| occasion he travelled in state, and was attend
| ed by the Hon. Colonel Orne, one of the Ex
cecutive Council, and Nathaniel Baleh Esq.—
CTheir arrival at Portsmouth, N. H., was thus
humorously announced : * On Thursday last,
Carrived in this town, Nathaniel Balch, Esq.,
Caccompanied by His Excellency John Han
| cock, and the f‘lcm. Azor Orne.”
| Lacosic Corresroxpesce.=The New
. Orleans Picayune says: Brevity in epistolary
' correspondence has long since come to be re-
L garded as a characteristic of great minds.—
- Whether the following correspondence is to
' be regarded as the emanation of genius, a
*discerning public must decide,” as the
Cquack said when he spoke of the curative
' powers of Lis patent wmedicine,
' The first letter is from a lady who keeps a
- hoarding house in this municipality to oue of
- her weeklies ; the second is his reply :
| Wensesnay, 10 o'clock, A, .

Yours, in want of money,
| J e Re,
Bill, we would here remark, is the lady's
colored servaut, well known to all the board
ers as the *man of all work.” A few mo
ments after Madame Jeeee R put her note
in the hands of Bill, he came running down
stairs, erying as loudly as if some person had
attempted to assoginate him. The following
note, which he held in his hand and handed
to his mistress, explained the cause ol his
wailing.

Quakenr's Rernoor.—Sometime since, a
sailor on one of the wharves was swearing
most boisteronsly, when one of the Society
of Friends, passing along, accosted him very
pleasantly, and said, * swear away, till thee
gets all that bad stufl’ out of thee, for thee
can never go to heaven, with that stufl in thy
heart.” The sailor with a look of astonish
ment and shame bowed to the honest Quaker,
and retired.
“ Why am | like Texas ! said the unmar
ried Miss Star, to a bashful wooer, who did
not *spunk up,' os the saying is. 1 do
not know,” said the green one. * Because
I'm a lone Star.” “gl'hen. said the fellow
brightning up, let me propose annexation.”

as for 'nin board he did not -upfi»ly it, for my fa
