A flattering letter—-more’s the pity—_-
By some contrivingjunto planned,
And signed per order of Cormnitlee ;

And hope to make-the feasters nierry— _
They own they’re something more perplext
For poets than for port and slierry--
They want the men of—(\vord torn out ;)
Our friends will come with anxious faces,
(To see our blankets ofl", no doubt-,).
And trot us out and show our paces.
They hint that papers'_by~ the score '
Are rather musty kind of rations :
They don‘t exactly i'ne‘an a bore,
But only trying to the patience ;
That such as—-you know who I mean-—
.. Distinguislicd for thcir—what d-‘ye call ’em?
Should bring the (laws of Hippocrene
To sprinkle on the faces solemn.

Upon my soul, it makes nie1augli_
To read these letters frciii Committees!
Thcy’rc all so loving and to fair-
Allfu1‘]/mlrsftke such kind compunction——
’Twould save your carriagt half its wear
To grease the wheels with such an unction!
Why who am I, to lift me here
And beg such learned folks to listen-
To ask a smile, or coax a tear
Beneath these stoic lids to glisten?
—As well might some ai crial thread
As the whole frame to eel it gushing,
While tlirobbing fierce fr in heel to head
The vast aortic tide wa rushing.
As well some hair-like ncrxc mi ght strain
To set its spectral streai lot going,
While through the myriad'cl1anneled brain
The burning flood of thought was flowing-
Or trembling fibres strive to keep ..

With every leaf that mkfives _it brighter,

And clasps his crystal racclet tighter.

THE FROG.
Of all the funny things that live
In woodland, marsh, or bog,
That creep the ground, or fly the air,
The funniest is the frog.
The frog_—the scieutilicest
Of iiat§'irc’s handy work-
Thc frog‘ that neither walks nor runs,
But goes it with a. jerk.
With pants and coat of bottle green,
And yellow fancy vest,
' I-Ie plunges into uiud and mire,-
All in his Sunday best ;
When he sits down. he‘s standing up,
As Paddy O’Kin ii once said ; ,
And for convenience sake, he wears
His eyes on the top of his head.
You see him sitting on a log,
Above the “ vasty deep,”
You feel inclined to say, old chap-—
“ Just look before you leap!"
You raise your cane to hit him on
His ugly looking mug;
Bait ore you get it lialfway up,
.-‘idown he goes kcrchug.
He keeps about his native pond, ,
And ne’cr goes on a spree,
Nor gets " liow-conic-yoii-so” for a
Coltlflwatcr chap is he ;
' For earthly cares he ne’er gets drunk,
He’s'not the silly fool ; I
But when they come he gives a jump,
And drowns em in the pool.

“I have purchased a splendid set of
chessmang, which we can use on our ta
ble here,’§ said Mrs. Saintle, pointing to
a pearl inlaid. ,woi'k-table with a chess-
board iiiosaiced on the top. " Mrs.
Torkall is desperately fond of the game,‘
and by ggtting her at it early, we shall
be rid of her inonopolizing tongue. Ihad.
to ask her because she has been very
clever in attending to some matters for
me which I had not the confidence to do.”
i “ That?s’a.capital idea, as I was just
tliiiikiiigiiwhanl should dolwith Mr. Jen-
son, whoyis al\\.'n,ys making himself ridic-
ulous byghis - reinarks about his younger
days, and how primitive everything was
in those times. -lIe shall play with Mrs.
Torkall ; they will be ‘well matched.”——
The desire of mankind for the good
opinionof others often carries with it a-
deal of hypocrisy‘,..and with the Saintles
there was no exception to the general
rule. For the sake of appearing friend-
ly to many of their acquaintances, they
had invited them to their h6use_to spend
an evening. , For some few of them they
really felt a friendship, and wished their
company for the pleasure it afl"orded.—-
They could not ask those only, as it
would be a slight to others whom they
did not so much wish to see; hence they
acted wlfth hypocrisy. It ‘is true they
.'.v.i_sl.. .2 -m all. to _come, but those , who
were not wanted by friendship were ask-
ed for pride, in order to show them how
“ verylwell to do in the world”they were
and to give them an idea of the magnifi-
cence that they--the Saintles—could in-
dulge in. .
The evening which was to bring so
iniiclrcorifusion tothe house, and impor-
tance tg the feelings of Mr. Saintle, came
up over the house-tops on the west, and
gradually settled itself in and about the
city. It crept iioiselessly in the windows
. ‘and filled up each cranny of the rooms,
and there remained until frightened off
by the glare of the gas-light. It did not
then go far away, but kept peering in
through the windows, silently hiding its
time to make‘ another sally, when the gas
should be choked out by the household.
After the liourappointed, the company
began gradually to fill up the parlors, and
they soon became vocal with conversa-
tion. The very cold weather which had
body in the room, and a comparison
dra_wn- between it and the very hot wea-
ther which had been experienced the last
summer. The prevailing fashions from
Brodie, in the Lady’s Book, were subjec-
ted in no small share of explanation and
admiration. It would be vain for us to
attempt a description of all that was said
or done; our readers have all of them
doubtless been at such scenes, and can
form an ideaof what was generally per-
formed on this occasion. ,-
After all the_ company had assembled,
Mr. and Mrs. Saintle seated themselves
together in the midst of their‘ promena-
ding and gossipingfriends,\vatchiiig,with
evident satisfaction, the astonishment
which was depicted upon many of their
countenauces.
The Misses Ningles, and the three
Misses Jones, as was anticipated by Mr.‘
Saintle, kept_ the piano in a constant
state of excitement, from the energetic
manner with which they pounded out
the. music. Music, conversation, and
gossip after awhile began to get weak ;
but when the door was thrown open,and
the first course of refresliments was car-
ried around, they were entered into with
renewed energies, and all was again
noise and confusion.
"I Iam afraid, my dear,” said Mr, Sam
tie in a low voice, “that Cheerly will
not be here to-iiight; that will be such a
a disappointment, as he is such a splen-
did hand to keep a room full of compa.
ny in good humor. I do hope he will
come.”
“ It is not too late for him to be here
yet; you know he seldom does come
early, and always makes a graceful ex.
cuse.” I
A ring at the bell arrested the atten-
tion of the speakers, and also that of the
company, and in a few minutes, Mr.
Charles ‘Cheerly and his friend Reynolds
were ushered
of satisfaction passed over the face of
Mr. Saintle as he saw him enter the
door. »
“Iam here at last, you see, and
would have been sooner ;-but in my anx-
icty to put‘ myself upon a good -footing

of fim for the company, which will save-'-
aintisemeni, and will also: introduce his"
just set in was talked of by almost every. '
into the room. A smile '
' walking stick of my friend‘ Reynolds,
I should not have arrived here, I fear, at
all.” -
Thishspeechof Cheerly‘s was recciv-
ed by the company with great good hu-
mor, for he was known to all of the-.q_l,
and his occasional peculiarity of expres-
sion was a source of much ainuseinent
to tnein. - When he had seated_"liimst§lf,
a general feelirg of satisfaction seein-
ed to prevail; each .one looked at
the, other as if to say, " Now we will
have. some fun.” But despite the levity
-which-was upon the outside of Cheerly,
he had an inward feeling of sorrow, ari-
sing from his having met Mrs. Walyvert
-‘accidentally a few doors off, wlio" infor
med him that her landlord had ordered
her out of her house because she W215
unable to pay for the rent of her rooms
for the last two months. He ‘had no
money about him to give her, but assur-
ed her that he would see her again in
the morning, and would furnish her
with the means to satisfy his demand.‘-
The magnificence with which Mr. Sam.
tle was surrounded, and the knowledge
of the manner in which he had treated
Mrs. VValwert, made Cheerly despise
him in his heart, and caring not for the
friendship of such a man, he determi-
ne_d..to punish him before his friends, let
the-consequences be what they might.
"I hope Mr. Cheerly is not so much
fatigued that he cannot, amuse us_ by some
of his ventriioquial displays)? said Mr.
Saintle, advancing towards Cheerly, after
he had been in the room some time, and
reaching out his hand to him.
_“- Not at all,vsir! I shall be most hap-
py to oblige the company.” As he ans-
wered, he reached out his hand towards
Mr. Saintle’s, but as it neared it, he
dropped it quickly down to his foot, and,
rubbing it, left the former gentleman
holding out his hand until he became,
tired, when he put it in his pocket, and
again seated himselfbeside hisiwife.
“Yes, yes, M-[Cheerly, do give us
some of your ventriloquism,” said a doz-
en voices; ‘-.we want to hear it very
much..’’ . v _
Th'i:.'?.i-as cxactlyvrhat’ hc:::ly"r.';‘.nLed,.
He had determined to introduce the case"
of Mrs. Walxvert to the company through
the aid of his‘ favorite accomplishment,
and without waiting to be pressechwhich
showed his want of affectation, he pro-
ceeded to shut one of the folding doors
of the parlors, and requested the compa-
ny to seat themselves all in one room.—
VVhen they had done this, which
not accomplished without some degree
of confusion, he opened the door leading
out into the passage, and proceeded to
the front door, which he opened, and:
talking to some one who, from the voice
appeared to be a female, he led her into
the room which the company had vaca-
ted, and, asking her to take a seat, coin-
menced a conversation with her. VVhen
Mr. Saintle heard the voice, he became
uneasy, and kept turning himself in his
chair as if he was not at all pleased with
the intrusion of the new-comer into his
house, especially as he recognized. the
voice as being that of Mi's.VValwert.
As Cheerly progressed in his conver-
sation with Lhe pretended stranger, the
company began gradually to take a de-
cided interest in it ; and when she stated
that she worked at shirt-making, they
all turned their eyes towards Mr. Sain-
tle. Although Cheerly did not mention
his name, he made the application so
pointed that it was understood by all.—
Mr. Saintle’s ‘temper was about to show
itself, when Cheerly advanced into the
room’ with a marble ca_rd-basket, which
he found upon the table, remarked:
“ It is rather a strange move which I
am going to make, but I plead the holi-
nessiof the cause as my excusé,aiid with
your permission.” turning to Mr. Saintle
“ I will take up a collection for the suf-
feriug woman whose case I have truly
set before you. In doing so, I I pledge
myself that whatever sum I may obtain
shall be religiously applied to alleviate
the suffering which I this day saw. I
am fully aware of the peculiarity of the
act, and the place; but I know enough
of my friends here to know that they
never refuse to succor a fellow-creature
in distress, especially when it appears in
the form of woman.”
From any one else but Cheerly this
piece of eccentricity would have been
considered as impudence; but he was a
privileged individual, and his appearance
in the character of a solicitor of alms
was overlooked, and his mission well re-
warded. Many of the company had not
any money about them, but they put in
their cards, with the amount which they
would give written in pencil upon the
back.
Upon counting up the amount, Cheer-
ly found that he had obtained twenty-
five dollars, five of which was from Mr_
Saintlc, whichhe folded up and appar-
ently handed to the stranger, and preten.
ded to show her out of the front door.
The remainder of the evening passed
overheavily with Mr. and Mrs. Saintle,
and when the time came ior the compaa
ny to depart, they were glad to see the
last retreating figure leave the house.

“ You took rather a severe "fnethod'of
punishing old Saintle, and an iin-pudent
one, too, if -I may be allowed t0~ judge,
Charley,” said his friend Reynolds, 39
they were on their way home from the
party" _
"‘ It was nothing more than he‘ deser-
ved; and as for the iuipudence of. it,
‘wj3'e,‘-1» 1 was talking to the fictitious Mrs.
Walwert, I_fe,ltso_indignai1t at the old

company.” _‘ 3 , '

something, and I knew that he Was tO0
proud to give less than that, and I W33
in hopes that it would be more. TD
morrovv morning I will go around to her
house and give her the money.” _
“ I have been thinking about the case
of this poorvvoman, and thougl t that if
she applied to some of the benevolent
institutions of the city she would get
work.” i
“ Benevolent grandmothers!
majority of instances they are very par-
ticular in their exactions as to debar any
one who has ‘not friends to. speak for
them from getting anything to do.‘ The,
female directors have awoman to over-.
see the work, and they themselves visit"
the institution once a week, which. day
is set apart from the rest for a good din-,
ner, ice cream, and other delicacies, for
the directors. Moreover, the work is
mostly given out to a favored few, who,
year in and year out, in the sewing sea-
son, are furnished with work, and if a
new hand applies there is‘_none to give
them."
“You are mistaken in relation to one,’
at least, Charley, for at the one,I know
the first person "that comes is f,u_ru'islied_
with work, until the ropm is filled. When
they take no more.“ Tobe sure the saw-
iiig_season only lasts about four or fiV0
Ina
months." .. ,
" Well, ‘I'am glad that such is the. case
I ‘tlicfiiigiit "otherwise. But-'in "regard ‘to
shirt sewers, there is more‘ fraud and
deception practised npon them than up-
on any other class of operatives in the
city. The majority of employers pay
their workers regularly every week; but-
there isalarge number who resort to
the vilest means to defraud those in
their employment, and it is impossible
to obtain redress. Occasionally a fla-
grant casc comes to the knowledge, of
the public through the press ; but there
are hundreds of such that are never
known. The laur which punishes" the
thief for a petty act of larceny has pro-
vided no penalty for such gross injustice
and fraud, and if it did I doubt if it
would be executed- It is customary with
some establishments to advertise for. fifty
or a hundred shirt sewers, promising per-
manent work and good prices to neat
hands and quick sewers. The morning
the advertisement appears the store is
generally crowded with applicants, each
of whom is required to furnish a speci-
men of her "work before she is “perma-
nently employed.” The linen for a col-
lar or a bosom_ is given to the woman,
and she hurries home with it, full of
hope for"the’future. That night she sits
up till twelve o’clock, stitching away
till herieves grow dim, and early next
morning, after a few hours’ fitful sleep,
she appears before her employer with
beating heart. He furnished her with
the linen in the blandest manner he could
assume, but when she returns" with the
Work he receives it with an air of dis-
satisfaction, says she has ;destroyed his
goods, and {hugs it on the desk, telling
her in the blandest way possible thatshe
is not fit to sew sacks. The poor shirt-
sewer leaves the store with tears in her
eyes; and with her heart almost ready
to break, returns to her miserable abode
in a garret or cellar, where she finds her
children crying for bread. Is it any
wonder that at such a moment the forti-
tude and strength of mind ;:;which s1_1s
tained her under all her sufferings should
forsake her ? When the poor, broken-
hearted woman leaves the store, the mis-
erable wretch who keeps it picks up the
fore thrown down with well feigned dis-.
gust. admires the stitching, puts it by’.
and clinckles over the successful trick
he has just performed. In this manner
he gets fifty or a hundred shirt ‘collars
done in one morning for fifty cents—t.lie
price of the advertisement. The adver-
tisement is published every morning for
a whole week, and every day the same
scene is enacted in his store. There are
stores which pursue a more profitable
system of fraud than that Ihave just dc-
dollar on the material, {with the tinder-
standing that it willbe rettiriied when
there is no more work. iThr,ee or four

Inns between Boston and New
York, in 1697.
Mr. Edzzor :——I hope_ your correspon.
dents will be able to satisfy H.’s thirst
for information respecting “ the customs
&.c., of New England INNS in early
time_s.”‘
In the meantime, without wishing to
trespass upa’n‘_ the manor assigned by you
to Screw or Clerk; I will say to H, that
the earliest and most detailed accounts
of experiences at New England 13115 are
probably those related in a graphic and
spicy inanner ‘in the Jofirnal of MADAEI
KNIGHT..,Who_travelIfed from Boston to
New York in 1804. Her Journal was
published in 1825, in a thin 12 mo. vol-
ume which H. can read in half an hour,
and time well spent.
Apropos to the enquiry of H., I wish
to have preserved in the columns of the
Ooztraézt, a_ list of the Inns between Bos-
ton and New York in 1697. It is cop.
ied (original orthography followed) from
a New York Almanac for that year»
which the preface says is the flrst Alina.
nac ever made in the Province of New
York. You will see that the route in
1697 is nearly identical with that adop.
ted in 1853, by the recently proposed
“ new t/wvug/2. Railroad line from New
York .10 Boston,” the projectors of
which seem (for Railroad people) to
have a remarkable regard for the foot-
steps of their ancestors.
The reader will bear in mind that this
route was in 1697 only practicable for
travellers upon horseback, who usually
accompanied the post-rider. DATCHE1‘.
