THE YEAR'S TWELVE CHILDREN.
»January, worn and «ray,
Like an old pilgrim by the way.
Watches the snow, and »Miiering üign»,
Ah th« wild curlew round him flies;
'Or, huddled underneath a thorn,
Situ praying for the moru.
February, bluff and bold,
O'er farrows striding, »porn# the cold;
And with his horse« two abreast,
Mak-a the keen plough to his behest.
Rough March comes blustering down the road,
In hi« wrath-hand the oxen's goad ;
Or, with a rough and angry haate,
Scatters the Beed o'er the dark waste.
April, a child, hall'tears, hrilfsmileB,
Trips full of little playful wiles;
And, laughing 'neath her rainbow hood,
Seek« the wild riolet« In the wood.
May, the bright maiden goes,
To where the snowy hawthorn Wows,
Watching the lambs leap 10 the dell'
Wst'nlng the simple village bells.
June, with the mower's scarlet face;
Moves o'er the clover field Apace,
And fast his crescent scythe sweeps on
O'er »pots fron where the lark has flown.
July—the» farmer, happy fellow,
Laughs to see the corn grow yellow ;
The heavy grain he tosses up
From his right hand as from a cup.
August—the reaper cleaves ni» way
Through golden wares at break of day;
Or in Iiis wagon piled with corn,
At rannet, home is proudly borne.
September, with his braying hound,
Leaps fence and pale at every bound ;
And casts into the wind iü »com
All cares and dangers from his horn.
October joules, a woodman old
Fenced with tough leather from the cold ;
Hound swings his sturdy axe, and lo!
A llr branch fa I s at every blow.
November cowers hefor» the flame,
H I tared crono, tor get ting h"r own name !
Watches the blue smoke cnrlln" rise,
And broods upon old memories.
Meoember, fat, and rosy strides,
His old heart warm, well clothed his side*,
With kindly word for young and old,
The cheerier for the bracing cold ;
Laughing a welcome, open flings
Iii» Doors, and as he does i t, sing».
[ Chambers'# Journal.
A Bright Day Coming .—"Tongues and
Sounds" of the Mobile News holds forth as
follow«: "Bricks" commends the same to
rniiny of hi* fellow-creatures in this city (
adding, that we may yet enjoy a future
brighter by fur, than the happy days
buried iu the past, if we be but true to our
selves, and not give up to weak repining
over that which is gone forever :
It is another Sabbath morning, and
God's glorious sun shines on rich and poor,
011 high and low, on North and South,
alike—there is no malice in J lis ways. A
"Tongue"' said the other evening, "I can
not feel resigned to my destiny; I have
lost my homo, my property, the old asso
ciations of my youth are gone, the old ties
sundered; all, all swept away by one fell
blow; I sometiinos think there is no God!"
You do wrong, my friend, to say thus; for
do you not know that "every cloud has a
silver lining," and "the darkest hour is
just before day?" Why, then, forgot and
forgive. T. and S., himself, lost his little
all, and the thought of it sometimes makes
him heart-sick. How he strove to win a
name and a recompense; how he tried to
do well by himself and still do well by l is
follows; how he had "saved something for
a rainy day," and woke up to lind himself
impoverished, and his little investment in
the* "peculiar institution" vanished like
dew oefore the morning sun, you will
never know more of, kind reader; but
there is a bright day lor us and the
"Sunny South" yet, we sincerely hope and
believe, and the darkness around us has
a light that glows behind. Have courage,
you who read this, and know, that al
though happy old days have gone, and
with them the institutions of our dear
South, the old plantation scenes of glory,
and the city's peaco and pride, still there
is a future fraught with prosperity to
our land, and peace to our people. Let us
improve both to the best of our ability,
and try and work out the salvation of our
Saxon race; other races arc trying to work
out theirs—let them do it.
SSÈT"Mr. John l'ouncy, the well-known
photographer, of Dorchester, England, re
cently gave a series of experiments in his
newly patented process of printing photo
graphs direct from the negative, in print
er's ink, before a solect party of eminent
professors, at King's College, London.
The whole manipulation of the process
was successfully carried outby Mr. l'ouncy,
showing the ease with which the pictures
produced from the ink could be trans
ferred either to paper or any other sub
stance. The rationale of the process ap
pears to be that the light hardens the ink
on the surface of the paper just in propor
tion as it passes through the negative, the
part not acted oil by the rays remaining
soluble, arid being easily removed by
washing with turpentine. The company
present expressed themselves highly satis
fied with trie results, and a vote of thanks
was accorded to Mr. l'ouncy. He also
exhibited specimens of photography in
ceramic colors for transfer to biscuit wares,
which were much admired. The fact of
Mr. Potincy having been awarded the
silver modal and fourhnndrod francs from
the Photographic Society of France, and
the silver medal of the Photographic So
ciety of Scotland, is a sufficient testimony
in favor of a process which appears to be
one of much value, as advancing the per
manency of architectural representation.
A Fkmalk Blondjn.—A well formed,
voluptuous looking little French Canadian
woman, with a handsome face, calling
herself M'lle Josephine V autier,is creafing
quite a sensation at Elm Park, Stuten
Island, by her daring feats, particularly
that of ascending into the air a distance
of eighty feet, and there performing upon
a tight rope. On Saturday afternoon she
made her first ascension and performed
upon bottles—a pyramid of champaigne
bottles having beon formed—which she
ascended, and while standing on a single
bottle at the top, balanced a number of ro
tating plates supported on her hands and
chin. Shortly after, she reappeared and as
cended a rope stretchod a hundred and fifty
feet and abont eighty feet high. While
upon the rope M'Ue De Vautier showed
herself au expert in the profession. She
knelt down, balanced on «ne foot, exten
ding herself at fall lenjth,}recovering her
upright position with apparent ease.
OtiK Mistakes About Each Other.—
Not one man in ten thousand sees those
with whom he associates as they really are.
If the prayer of Burns were granted, and
•we could all see ourselves as others see us,
our self estimates would in all probability
be much more erroneous than they now
are. The truth is that we regard each other
through a variety of lenses, no one of
which is correct. Passion and prejudice,
love and hate, benevolence and envy,spec
tacles our eyes, and utterly prevents us
from observing accurately. Many whom
we deem the porcelain of human clay are
mere dirt, aud a still greater number of
those we put down in our "black books,"
are no further oil' from heaven, and per
chance a litt!« nearer than the cesaors who
condemn Ihem.
