£t!cttdi potto. TO AN AUSENT WiPE. BY O. D. J'KEXTICE. Tla Morn— the sea breeze seems In bring Joy. health, and freshness on its wing ; Bright flowers, to ire all strange and new; Arc Ll.ttering in tbe early dew, And perfumes rise from every grove, A* incense to the clouds that move Lik? spirits o'er yon welkin clear ; But 1 aua Bad—thou art uot herd 'Tis N'oon—« calm, unbroken sleep Is on the blue wave of the deep ; A soft base, like a fairy dream. Is tl rating ov< r wood and stream, And many a broad, magnolia iiower, Within its shadow; woo.(laud bower, ts gleaming lik*- n lonely star, But I n-a .-» 1—thou art alar ! 'Tis Eve—on earth the sunset skies Are printing their own Eden jys ; Tbe stars came down and trembling glow ; Like blossoms on the wave below, And liktf *ii unseen spirit the breeze Seems lingering 'mid the orange tre»»; Breathing Its music round tho sp«l; But I nui snd—1 nee ihce not ! Tls Midnifjlit — with a coothintr Sfejllj The far-of" ton'* nf ocean swell— Soft as t; e mother cadence mild. Low bending o'er h-r sleeping child ; And OO each wandering breeds are beard The rich notes of the mocking bird, In ma, iv ... wild and wondrous lay; But I am sad—thou art away! I sink in dream-"—low, sweet anil c>»r, Thy own de;*r voice is in mine enr ; Around my neck thy tresses twine, Thy own loved hand is clasped in *!»e; Thy own soft lln to mine is pressed, Thy head is pillowed on my braaft, Oli, I hare all my heart holds dear, And 1 am happy, tVai nr! li'T* !

OfWUrSe, ihen. ih.; meeting was an affecting bus, invested with Sill tfte a LawnHy of m efisraol Bevetajao)e. Wo shall call one Dick and tlm oilier Obedir.li. merely for tlie saka of distinction, ind [tot desiring Lo toake public their name?. After some random conversation, Dick polled out Iiis knife, opened it, and commenced hid'-siri ously whittling as preliminary to A saggastioo of unusual gravity. It waa a large, roind. venerable log upon which they were Pealed—Dick at one end and Obediah at the other—1 in juxtaposition,' as Governor Foote would say. Obediah noticed the gesticulatory movement, and pricked bis ears for the ingress of something pathetic. At last Dick, after reducing the timber to a little hill'ocl; ol" chip=. remarked to Obediah that tic had something of a very delicate nature to talk about. "Go ahead !■•' said Obediah, witbaa.eicourag- ing earnestness. And thus Dick commenced :—'• You know, Ob, that me and my wife bev got to gitiin' d< ing very badly. Sal, sura how or other, kinder slants from me of late days. And I thought, as I was gwine io Taxas aad yon to Yallabam, that I would offer to swap you my tigc for yours. But see here. Ob ; I I-urorvl give boot!" After a pan.-:e, in which many a thought passed rapidly Through the mind of Obediah', he answerer?: "Well, DJck, IdcVt know but what I'll do it. But you see, now, my 2'tll ir, purtier than your Sal; and ym know s-he is a -yoaoger criCer b-y twelve long years. Now, Dick, yld fellow, how- would you like to trade a young and Jikely filly for an old broken-winded and homely lior.se, and get no boot?" The argument was a clincher; and Dick, though reluctant to acknowledge it, manifestly felt its force. After much (urther parleying, it wps agreed"between t&e faithless Benedicts, that Dick should take Obediah's v.iie, and Obediah Dick's, upon the.se conditous: that the former should give the latter, in the way of boot, a coze- and calf, two goats, an old shot gun and an ox bell : Tho ti-eaty of exchange wasralifled accordingly, L [ind Sal went to 'Yallabam' and Poll to 'Tnxas,' The reppective children of the two mothers remained with their respective fathers, and thus were favored with the peculiar .elation, a step-motherly process of swapping, 'i'ii!;: statement is substantially true, the incidents having actually occurred as above related. It may be, however, that, so far as the wives arc concerned, the swap was-more formal than astual; that,in brief, the cow, calf, goats, shot-gun, and ox-bell were a 'dead loss' on tha part of Dick, and but fair tribute to mercenary Obediah.
