The Poet.

BY JOEL BENTON.

 

The poet‘s words are winged with fire,
Forever young is his desire,—

. Touched by some charm the gods impart
Time writg no wrinkle on his heart.

The messenger and priest of truth,

His thought breathes oi‘ immortal youth,—
Tholigh summer hours are far away-
lid-summer haunts him day by day.

The harsh fates do not chill his soul.
For hlmllll streamed-splendor roll ;

, . Sweet hulls come to hlm'from the sky. '
Birds teach him wisdom as they “3-

.. He gathers" good in all he meets,
. The fields pour out for him their sweets,
' = : manage: onesunset'sglow '
Gives him a bliss no others know. _

Beauty tohim is parsdiue— -
He nevertirea of lustrous eyes.
Qnafilnghis Joy, the world apart,

. Love lives and summers in his heart.

‘ Hillandlare never bought and sold,

, His wealth is more to him than gold ;

' 0n the green hills when life i's'done,

He sleeps like fair Endymion. .
. , The Independent.
_ A Turkish Legend.
A certain Pasha, defad five thousand years,

, ,Oncetfiqm hiSJiar'em tied in sudden tears.

, And hadthis sentence on the city’s gate
Deeply engraven, “Only God is Great."

 

So these four words above the city‘s noise,
Hung like, the accents of an angel’s voice ;

. And evermore, from the high barbican,
Ssluted eachreturning caravan.

'1 Lost is‘t‘hat city‘s glory. Every gust. . ,
Lifts, with crisp leaves, the unknown Paaha’
. 5 dust. .
And still, ruin—save one wrinkled gate
‘ ' Wher'eon is written, “Only _Godis Great 1"

.Iithauthree hundred people were killed and
wounded, and depicting the .event,:he pro-

- “citesrthe‘hlstory of the convention of 1864
which had not adjourned sine die, but was
left to be called together again by its Presi-
dents. Details his own course and the con-
cxllatory disposition he brought to the ad-
. ministration of the ofiice to .which he had
.rbeenbho‘sen, declares that he found a concila
tory policy was not adapted to that part of
the people who had returned from the ranks
of t e_rehel army, that he favored the reac-
sembllng of. the convention of 1864 as the
only incline of securing the adeption of the
constitutional amendment passed by Con-
gresagand‘ thereby insure the admission of
Lonisiang representatives in Congress, that
the riot was a, premeditated affair, and that
the police after driving the negroes into Me-
chanic’s Insttiute should have waited the
appearance of the military, when the deliber-
ate aud horrible bloodshed which occurred
would have been prevented.

Tnn_Cnors.—The abstract of crop returns
for July, issued from the Department of Ag-
riculture, shows the prospect of a year of av-
erage fruitfuluess. The present indications,
as marked by thousands of correspondents of
the department, point to an average of about
eight and_one~half tenths of an average crop
iu'aquantlty of wheat, of a quality that will
make it equal in value to last year s crop. The-
testlmony from all quarters render it certain
_tbat'the quality will bcexcellent. The show-
ing is much more favorable than in the J one
report. Winter barley is in very nearly the
same condition _as the wheat. The out crop
has been nominally good—almost beyond
precedent. The condition of pastures is gen-
erally above _the averalge. With the excep-
tion of Maine and ew Hampshire, every
State reports a greater breadth of corn than
usual. A_ somewhat diminished average of
sorghum zeindicated. There is nearly an
average breadth of flax. In every State
more potatoes than usual were planted, which
romised better than usual. The prospect
or. apples is not as cod as usual, and no
fruit upon the list ma es so poor a show as

peaches. ,

OPTICIAN S and ' OCCULISTS.

No. 17 Hungerford & Gene’s Building,
MAIN STREET, HARTFORD, CONN.

Acknowledge thankfully, thehigh apprecia-
tion of their “CELEBRATED PERFECT-
ED SPECTACLES” as shown by the con:
tinually increasing patronage accorded them
at their permanent residence (the past six
years) in Hartford, enables them at all
times to offer to the public, the full advan-
tages which the perfect knowledge of the pro-
fession, combined with their extensive prac-
tice confers. They desire to offer here a few
observations, upon the evils resulting from
the wear of badly fitted and common spec-
tacles in purchasing of unskillful dealers, no
guidance as to the proper glass can be given,
but customers are expected to select for
themselves; this is usually done when the
eye is tired and wearied from trying on sev-
eral pairs, and consequently most difficult
to fit ; as might be expected under such cir-
cumstances, serious mistakes are made, oc-
casioning much suffering, and in some cases
permanent injury to the eyes.

MESSRS. LAZARUS & MORRIS,

examine the eye'with a very powerful glass,
and decide at once what is necessary, and
themselves select but one pair of spectacles,
which will fit accurately and unerriugly,
apart from the value of the peculiarly con-
structed lens they use, this ability to fit the
eye is of the greatest importance, assuring
to the purchaser ease and comfort, and a
brilliancy and distinctness of vision, which
to the unitiated is perfectly astonishing.
their charges are moderate, and their motto,

“ HONOR AND INTEGRITY ”-

in the conduct of their business, unfailingly
adhered to ; the limits of an advertise-
ment preclude the insertion of themany tes-
testimonials they are daily receiving.

A NEW INVENTION.

Wetting thelcet is the meet prolific cause of dis-

ease and death known to humanity. It is almost
sure to bring onu cold; and colds, neglected. and
often when not neglectedJend to fevers or to coughs
and fatal consumptions. it is in recognition of this
truth that the inventive talent of the country has
for years been devreing some method, or uttempt~
ing to devise it, for keeping the feet dry, and yet
should not give inconvenience to the wearer. Rub-
ber shoes, in one form or another, have hitherto
been our reliance ; but this well known, as among
their many evils, that while they keep the feet dry
from external moisture, they ewoat them over mucn
and by thus inducing an undue tenderness increase
a susceptibility to colds rather than otherwise.—
They are also cumbersome to the feet and wiihal
are Very expensive, The demand is for something
that shall make the ordinary Boot and Shoe imper-
vious to water, without uflecnng their elegance or
durability, and, if possible, Without adding sensibly
to the metal their manufacture. These, ll. will be
conceded, are most Important features, and We con-
scientiously affirm that they are absolutely attained
in the invention herewith presented to the public.

The invention consists in inserting beLWecn the
inner and outer sole, when the boot. is making, a thin
Ma'ramo rLA'rB, exceedingly ductile, combining
flexibility With toughness very light, and every way
adapted to the end desired, while the additional ex-
pense is merely nominal. ‘ lt furnishes a perfect
narrieragairlst the admissmn of wet. or dampness,
though the feet may be exposed ever so long upon
wet pavements or damp ground.

To the ladies and children the Marshall: Sou-s will
be of incaiculable value, as from their habits ,of life
and delicacy ofdreas, they are particularly exposed
to the long train of ills that attend upon all made
quate protection to the feet. _

These Soles have already been tried by the best
of all tests, server. use, and the _ testimonials to
their merits, freely proffered, indicate that they
must be speedily ,and universally adopted by the
public. The Patent Metallic Soled Boots and Shoes
are being introduced into the leading Boot and
Shoe Stores throughout the United States, and will
supplant all forms ofovershoes, except possibly for
deep mud or snow, as they become known. Be sure
to get them, and take no other. If your shoemaker
does not happen to have them, he can procure them
without difficulty. 1! he will not, then send your-
self to the inventor one dollar and thirty cents, and
obtain six pair, assorted, sizes. with right to use,
which will be promptly forwarded by mail or express
pro-paid, and which can be made up by any shoema-

er in the country. Agencies will be established in
every city and village, and supplied with Soles and
propriety stamps,at schedule prices, and liberal corn.
