TO THE PUBLIC.
Hail ! honored ages of grand progression,
While each one clings to his profession,
And science moves with onward motion,
To suit each wayward thought and notion,
Bringing to light, some new invention,
More strange than modern wit can mention,
Or genius paint with true endeavor,
Though making graphic strides forever,
While reason urges proud ambition,
To strive for wondrous competition;
Yet in this age of glorious Art,
We can the meed of praise impart,
When meritorious efforts claim
A modest puff to gild the name.
And thus we call with honest pride,
Attention to the Painters Side,
Two men who bravely know their calling,
Whose works are worthy of extolling,
Two model artists of the day,
And most obliging in their way,
Moreland & Jakeman—mark the name,
In Roanoke street you’ll find the same,
Call at their shop number one,
You’ll get the best of Painting done,
And whether Foe, Friend, or neighbor,
They’ll charge but moderate for their labor,
So now I invite each one and all,
So walk around, and give them a call,

ISADORE.
The birds sing matins, Isadore,
To please thy listening ear ;
The little flowers more sweetly bloom
Because that thou art near.
The grass springs up in gayer green,
Beneath thy fairy feet,
Aud the wild wood-rabbit scarcely stirs
From thee to make retreat.
I, only I, go slow away,
1 loVetliee, Isadore l
0 tlie little wild-birds, Isadore,
May sing their songs to thee,
And the little wild flowers lift their eyes,
Thy lovelier eyes to see.
And the brown wood-rabbit boldly peer
From the covert of the vine,
1, alone, of all things, dare not
Lift lip my eyes to thine.
1, only 1, must go away—
I love thee, Isadore!
Thy princely father, Isadore,
Would laugh my love to scorn :
Thy gentle mother, pity me,
That 1 am lowly-born.
Thv fathers dwelt in the castle's halls,
And mine in the castle’s grounds ;
My fathers toiled with axe and plow,
And thine with hawks and hounds;
And, therefore, 1 go slow away—
1 love thee, Isadore!
Why do 1 linger, Isadore?
The moon is on the river,
And J flv from the light of those sweet, i-ves
That haunt my dreams for ever.
Perhaps my weary heart may break
When the strife of love is o’er ;
And then in heaven, ’twill be no sin
To see thee evermore.
For ’tis death to my heart to go away—
l love thee, Isadore !
The Sun.
Tin; (!<litnr of the Fayetteville Ninth
Carolinian tells the following amusing in
cident in his experience:
We were teaching an “academary” down
in the wire grass country of South Geor
gia, soon after we left college, pnd. simong
the “higher branches” taught in that “in
atitoi11i• 'ii'’ were the rudiments of astrono
my, to which advanced textbook: we had
introduced a class of sand hill hoys and
gopher trapping girls, ranging iu age
from 14 to 20 years. A few recitations,
coulined principally to corrections of niuii
lated pronunciations, “stairs,” “hevingly
buddies,” the yeath,” “comies,” plauics,”
&c,”—and wo made to the “advanced
class” the startling and incredible announ
cement that the sun did not rise and set
daily, that the revolution of the earth on
its axis made night and day, &c. There
were a few open countenances in that
gaping wonder-stricken class about then.
Next morning we were waited on by a
grave, sage-looking patron of ours, who,
with some asperity of countenance and,as
I we imagined, contemptuous severity of ex
pression, thus delivered himself:
“We’ve emply’d ye here to lam our
young’uns, haint we ?” We assented to
the proposition.
“Well,” continued he, “what’s all this
riggymarole and stronamy and stuff about
the sun not settirf and risiu’, and the
yeath turnin’ upside down of a night,and
such like infidel talk ye’ve been fooliu the
skollards with?” Now thought we, fora
triumph of scienee, a lighting up of this
benighted understanding. Inviting him
into the academy, we proceeded, to draw
a diagram upon the black board, for the
purpose of illustration. “Now,” said we,
"the sun is ninety-five millions of miles
from the earth, and”—“stop,” cried he—
“howdo you know that? Who’s been thar
to measure it? What surveyor’s ever durg
his chain over that route? Taint so.” In
vain we assured him that scientific men
had demonstrated it, philosophers proved
it beyond a boubt, and that all the learn
ed and eminent men in the world admit
ted ami believed it.
‘iThey don’t know nothin’ about it,’(
was hisdagmatic response—“not a bit
more’ll I do, and they’ve never ben any
closter to the sun than I hav. It’s agin
reason, sense and scripter, to say that the
sun don’t rise and set—for thar’s a text,
which mabbe you’ve seed,if you ever read
the Bible, which 1 kaut scacely believe
you ever did read it,saying‘from the risio’
of the sun to thegoin’ down tliarof—and
see hero,young man, if you kant teecli the
children somethin better’n.sich fool talk and
infidel argyment yon inout as well look
out for a Dooly settlement, whar theraint
no churches and the folks never heard o’
the Bible.” We caved, wiped out the
diagram with our left coat tail, bowed out
our indignant patron,and tlie next morin’
the “stronamy” class was advanced to
Peter Parley’s geography, and the sun
permitted to rise and set as usual.—
There’s every tiling in admitting and
denying the premises.
Editorial Politeness.—A editor thus
advertises his missing hat: “The gen
tleman who intervently took our new
heaver, and left an inferior article in its
stead, will do us infinite kindness by re
turning our own, and he shall receive our
wannest thanks and two apologies: an
apology for the trouble we have given
him, and the “apology for a hat” he let

Standing up eor Her Rights.—A
maiden lady in Westport, Mass., who is
possessed of considerable real estate, on
being called upon to pay her high-way
tax for the present year, claimed an equal
privilege with the lords of creation, of
working it out upon the highway, and
actually appeared with hoe in hand, and
discharged her duty to the satisfaction ol

A Singular Suicide.
In the little town of Dover, which is
situated on the Cumberland river, in
Middle Tennessee, there lived, some time
ago, an eccentric and intemperate old
bachelor by the name of Kingston. On
one occasion, when prostrated on his
bed by excess and suffering accutely from
those things and horrors peculiar to his
situation, he sent for his old boon com
panion to come and visit him. Shyrack,
for that was the other’s name came duly
into Kingston’s room.
What’s the matter, Kingston ?
Shyrack, shut the door.
Yes, my dear fellow.
Lock it.
Eh ?
Lock the door!
Certainly, my dear boy.
Shyrack, I’m goiugtokill myseli!
My dear Tellow, let me entreat you not
to do it!
I will.
Mo, no—phligc me, and don’t.
Must doit!
Don’t, it’ll he the death of yon!
Shyrack was quite cool and jocose,
little dreaming that so terrible an event
was actually going to take place.
Kingston had, as the last eccentric act
of his life, taken a chisel and mallet to
bed with him i nd now with desperate
resolve he seized the extraordinary tools
of death, and in an instant drove the
blade of the chisel into his breast.
The hair rose upon Shyrack’s head,
and fright spread like a sheet of snow
over his face.
Kingston! Kingston! my dear feliow—
you d-d rascal Kingston! do you
want to have me hung? Hold on! don’t
you die till I call somebody?
Shyrack ran to the door and called
like a madman to some people across the
street:
Hallo! here! say! you mister? all you
stupid people? make haste over here, or
there will be murder.
The people crowded into Kingston’s
house.
Don’t die, Kingston? Don’t chisel ,me
that way!’ Don’t die till you tell them
who did it.
I did it myself, said Kingston faintly.
There, that’ll do; now, my dear fellow,
you may die, replied Shyrack, taking a
long breath and wiping the perspiration
from his forehead.
And Kingstown did die, in that extra
ordinary manner, leaving his fate to
be recorded as a suicide that was almost
a murder.
Some few years ago Mr. Kidwell was
preaching to a large audience in a wild
part of Illinois, and announced for his
text, “In my Father’s house are many
mansions." He had hardly read the
words, when an old coon stood up and
said : “I tell you folks, that’s a lie !—
I know his father well. He lives about
fifteen miles from Lexington, in Kentuc
ky, in an old cabin, and there ain’t but
one room in the house.” The meeting
adjourned.

Secretary Marcy a Corporal in the
War of 1812 —The Albany Journal pub
lishes a letter dated Troy, May 28, 1812,
addressed by Lieutenant Higbie, of a
light infantry company, calling the atten
tion of Gov. Tompkins to the fact of a
probable vacancy in the oflico of ensign
to that company. lie furnishes the Gov
ernor with the namesof the four sergeants
and three corporals of the company, from
whom the selection is to be made, but
earnestly recommends the second corporal,
Wm. L. Marcy, to be appointed, The
corporal of 1812 lived to conduct a war
—a war which, in its brilliant manage
ment and splendid results,has rarely been
surpassed.
India Rubber Shoes by Machinery.
—As an illustration of the magical celeri
ty with which Indian rubber shoes are
now made by machinery, it may be sta
ted that the sheets of rubber are cut up
one day, and the shoes are made the next,
and these are packed ready for the mar
ket on the next again. There is no sew
ing or stitching in the operation.—Such is
the adhesive nature of the substance that
whenever two surfaces are brought to
gether they unite as firmly aa if they had
never been separated. The only thing
requisite after this is to give them a coat
of varnish.
A Family not Acquainted.—The
I Journal of Commerce tells the following
! reply of a boy to his mothar: “The fath
. er was of the keep your children at a dis
i twice class, and the boy wanting a new
! suit, very naturally asked the mother to
intercede for him. ‘Why don’t, you ask
1 your father yourself, rny son ?’ said the
mother. -Why, mother. I would ask
him, only I don’t feel well enough ac
quainted with liim,’ was the reply.
