BIRTHDAY GIFTS.
mr ants. 1.. J. HALL.
Papal don’t you know it is my birthday ?
Don’t you know I am five years old to-day 2
My poor wooden horse has lost its head;
My dear little kitten is all gone dead;
My marbles are lost; and my top won’t hum:
And, darling papa, please give me a drum!
The soldier-boys want me to come out and play;
And I want a drum, for I’m five to-duy!
Papa, do you know it is my birthday 7
DO you know I am ten years old today '1
And I've got my Latin, and done my sums;
And l'm tired Of marbles and tops and drums;
And at school I never have got into a row;
And grandma declares I make a nice bow;
And so, altogether, to go with my mates,
I should like, dear papa, a nice pair of skates.
Come, father. do not forget, I pray,
I am just fifteen this blessed day!
I’m a pretty tall fellow for that, you see;
And in less than a year, in college I’ll be,—
Unless all my digging should drive me to bed,—
For I’m studying the eyes almost out of my head,
When I’d rather be popping away at a duck.
With very great skill and very poor luck!
So I'll come to the point; for under the sun ’
There’s nothing I want like a handsome new gun.
Twenty years old, and a fine mustache!
A part at commencement,—a gloriOus dash!
And, father, you heard what a clapping I got;
I knew where you sat, and I looked at that spot,
And Ihhnked you, my father, for loving me so,
With your eyes full of tears, and cheeks in a glow.
The gift for my birthday 7 If truth must be told,
My watch is of silver, and might be of gold!
My father, to-day I am just twenty-five,
Ready and glad to struggle and strive:
But the world, my father, to me looks bright, i
For the gentle promise I won last night;
And the birthday gift that would gladden me
Is your tender blessing on Clara and me.
Thirty years old this blessed day!
The clouds may come, but they never stay;
For sunshine chases the shadows in turn!
That, from my smiling babe I learn,
From the cradle where once we leaned and wept
While with waxen checks our first-born slept.
But now in my wife's fair hand I see '~
The robe so stealthliy wrought for ma.
Am I thirty-five 7 Is it even so ?
Does my saucy wife pretend to know I
But the brief ten years of my wedded joy
Shine out in the eyes of my laughing boy;
And Minnie’s small lingers have hemmed for me
The 'kerchlefs my birthday gift to be.
Forty years Old; and my father lies
Where o’er his grave the furltree sighs;
His smile and his blessing dweltwith me, -
The blessing I feel, the smile I see,
As when in my motherless, boyhood days,
He warmed my heart with his words of praise:
Now my holy gift from my sister ”Ann
Is the pic.u:cd face of the dear old man.
Forty-five! and with blushing face
My Minnie leeks down with a modest grace
While her lover pleads, and I think of the day
SO well I remember! I cannot say nay:
She looks like her mother, the pretty young thing!
I see it. must end in a wedding ring; ’
' And my birthday gift this year must be
A son that shall steal my daughter from me.
I am fif y, dear; ’tis the prime of life!
No wrinkles as yet, you can count, my wife;
For the busy world is so full ofjoy
ThstI sometimes think I am still a boy.
Ah! here is my gift which I havcjust found,
From my children, — a volume superbly bound;
You villains! how shall I stifle my rage 7—
An elegant, classical treatise on Age 1
Sixty years old! and thy sliver hair,
My Clara, to me looks wondrous fair:
But hark! what trampling of feet below!
My clerks,—a smiling and goodly row,—
A cane, wi h a head of gold they bear;
They speak of my kind and watchful care;
They call me father! words are so weak,
Do you wonder, my wife, that I could not speak 7
Threescore and ten sounds rather old;
Withered, but fair, is the hand I hold.
Clara, my loving, long-tried wife,
L0, in thine eyes I read my life,—
Peaceful, whate’er the world might bring.
Ready the Father's praise to sing.
See, the grandchildren’s thoughtful carol
I sit in my stately birthday chain]; I
Eighty! the world is changed below;
Progress, it is. I think, I knew!
They are building a Home for Aged Men;
I must send a check; just hand me my pen,—
It. shakes—no matter—u few days more;
The pleasant journey is almost o‘er.
Give me your grandmother’s silver curl.
My birthday gift, the last, dear girl.
My blessing-good night! the Old Man’s Home!
Yes, it is time, I am glad to come.
—Cltrisimas Lacket.

@The following is a purely private
letter from the wife of Capt. Human of the
whale-ship Cornelius Howland to a rela-
tive here in Norwalk. where a number of
our citizens have made her acquaintance.
The epislle being so full of thrilling and
adventurous interest, we have craved it for
publication :
HONOLULU, Nov. 25th, 1870.
Mr Dunn UNCLE: Tnis morning, ba-fore
breakfast, I had the pleasure of reading
your letter of Oct. 261h. You can scarcely
imagine how delighted I am to receive lct~
ters from the loved ones so faraway. -In
this far off landaletteris a great treat.
The mail was not distributed before break-
fast, and as yet your letter is gall I have re-
ceived, still I cannot think it} possible that
your letter is the only one for me by this
mail. It is five weeks to-night since Willie
(a little son about six years of age,) and I,
arrived here. I wrote you of my arrival
here, and sent by the last steamer one
month ago. - That you have doubtless re-
ceived ere this. Well, my dear husband
has been returned to me in safety. He ar-
rived here last Sunday morning in time for
breakfast. , Only think, I had to wait more
than four weeks before he arrived. Capt.
Mellen‘s wife is boarding at the some place
with me. She is a very pleasant compan-
ion, and we were both expecting to meet
our husbands. We would sit together days;
when one went outvthe other went to. The
first thing in the morning would be, ”Oh
how much longer have we to wait for our
husbands; no wind; or the trades arebiow-
ing fresh, this ought to bring them along,"
&c., &c. After breakfast we would go
where we could see the signal that is used
.when Whalers are coming in '; and if any-
thing was reported then we would go up
into the bell tower where we had a fine
view of the harbor, and there, through a
spy glass, watch for an hour' or so the ves-
sel coming in, then we would come home
and talk aboutthem. We began to get ex-
tremely anxious; there were about thirty
ships in and yet neither ‘of our husbands.
At six o’clock last Sunday morning I was
taking my morning both, when I heard
some one coming up the walk singing
“ good news. good news.” Presently Capt.
Jones came to my door and says, “ the Cor-
nelius Howland’s coming.” I said are you
sure. “Oh yes, no mistake.” Then he
says, “ the Europa, Capt. Mellen, is coming
too.” Ifyou could have seen Mrs. Mellon
and I; we jumped around and laughed, and
both exclaimed, “it seems too good to be
true, to think both should come together.”
Willie heard he and he began to cry for
joy. In about an hour both our husbands
came up the walk together. How happy
we were; such a load taken from us.
Frank is looking just about the same as
when he 10ft New Bedford, three years ago,
except that he has grown gray. He had,
with the rest who have been in the Arctic,
a very severe gale the firstof October. The
gale lasted about seven or eight days.
Frank came very near losing his ship. He
had to knock in some casks of Oil he had on
deck in order to 'right his ship. Shc lay
way over on her side, with'the rail all
under water. The boats were hoisted way
on the top of the cranes, but they were all
under water and he lost three of them.
After the gale Frank was taking a look
. around on the deck, and he picked up four
stones. He asked the mate about them, and
found they had ‘been thrown on deck by
the waves. He has preserved them as curi-
osities. The whale ships are all in except
the Japan; fears are entertained of her
safety, as she was seen during the gale in a
very dangerous place. If she was lost at
the wind and current took them. The only
way men could do anything was to be fast-
ened with ropes. Officers of some of the
ships gave up in despair and were in their
berths crying. Frank said his men seemed
to be paralyzed with fe 1r. Weather very
cold; ship covered with ice, and a thick
snow storm. Such is a. life in the Arctic
ocean. Ihopc my husband will never go
there again. Every one frOm the Arctic re-‘
port it the worst time they ever experienced.
The passage down was very tedious, head
winds and calms. Two ships were lost, but
no lives lost. 'Frank is to let his mate take
the ship home. and we shall go home
across land. The steamer will leave to-
morrow, but Frank has to stay and get the
Ship to $0.1 ; so I suppose we shall take the:
steamer about December 251k. That will
bring us home some time in January. If
the Cornelius Howland gels away soon
enough, we expect 10 takes. trip to Hih)
and visit the volcano there. This I think
I shall enjoy very much. I have found the
people of Honolulu very kind and attentive
to a stranger, and I cannot realize that I
have been so little time with them; I feel
as if I had been acquainted with many of
them for years, instead 'of weeks. My
health is very good, and I think 1 am gain-
ing in flesh. Vet-y'often Willie takes hold
of my cheeks and says, “ Momma, you are
surely getting fat." I halve plenty of or-
anges and bananas to out. Then Iam
very fond of the vegetable called Yam. 1
eat this twice a day. This is considered the
most healthy vegetable on the island. Upoi
is made-from this, and is the staff of life
with the natives. Frank sent up to the
house, Monday, two hundred very large
sweet oranges, about the size of those they
charge ten cents each at home. He paid
$1.50 per hundred. I out two or three of
those every morning before breakfast. Yes—
terday we had a Thanksgiving dinner.
Turkey, onions,sweet potatoes, green beans,
yaro, cranberries, mince pie and pudding.
But really it did not seem like Thanksgiv-
ing. Only think ot‘being dressed in white;
doors and windows all open ; grass and
trees as green as early Spring; plenty of
roses and other flowers in bIOSSOm Thanks-
giving day! I thought of the friends at
home and imagined them sitting by a good
warm fire. Last evening we attended a
Fair; metnearly all the captains and their
wives there and had quite a pleasant time.
The house looked so pretty trimmed up
with natural flowers, and such beautiful
boqueis of roses, Willie seems perfectly
delighted ; plays out of doors all the time;
we have a nice shady yard for him to play
in. Mrs. Mellen has a little girl three and
a half years ,old, and she and Willie get
along first rate. They have a hammock
under the trees and they spend a great deal
of time swinging in that. Thercap ains’
were very kind and called on us often before
our husbands came, and if there was any
report look a great deal of pains to let us
hear it. We have had as» many as sixteen
call in one evening. I think as many as
thirty have called since our husband’s ar-
rived. Thus you sec'we have not much
time to get homesick or lonesome. Another
' thing seems strange to me, that is, to have
such long evenings and the weather so
warm. I cannot realize that it is almost
December. . The moonlight evenings
here are perfectly charming ; the
moon is so bright it dazzles one's eyes to
look at it. Iam so glad Frank is going
home across land with me. Won’t it be
nice? I imagine we shall see some snow
in crossing the mountains in January. I
am glad to hear from you all; you can
scarcely imagine how glad, and hope to see
you all before a great while. I have thus
far enjoyed my visit here very much, and
have never been sorry I 'came. Frank is
down town, but I know he wishes to join
in love to you all. The next letter I shall
receive from you will not be at the Sand-
wich Islands. , .

TAKING Comm—There is no more season-
abie lime in the year to take coldfiu than
the present ; the facilities are abundant,
and, as a c‘nscqucncc, every other person
we meet admits to have taken advantage
of the opportunities furnished. The Tech-
nologist condenses the philosophy of taking
cold into a few lines, and we give them for
the benefit of those who would learn how
to avoid the disagreeable complaint. it
says :— .
“ The human frame was made for activi-
ty, to run fast and to run slow, but it must
he managed. A locomotive can run very
fast, but if stopped instantaneously when
going at a high rate of speed, it is uujointed
as badly as if it had had inflammatory rheu-
matism for seven years. A skillful engi-
n er, however, tones down his speed grad-
ually, and in this,lics the whole secret of
taking cold. After walking, or running, or
dancing. or any exercise that quickeus the
circulation. a little cu’rrent Of air from a
window, a crevice, from an open door for a
few minutes, just to cause a chili, is sure to
produce cold. Merely stopping you the
street in a current of air—as at a corner
where the wind breaks or makes an angle
—wili do the job. Any subsidence of ac-
tive forces of the .body in a temperature
that chills, will produce cold. The little
common sense that is needed, and for the
luck ofexercisc of which so much is paid
to doctors, is, preserve an equable temperature,
or having exercised freely, recover the
proper slate gradually without a chill.
This is attained inn simple and easy man-
ner. After exercise always seek rest in a
sheltered place where you will be warm,
never being hasty to remove ha i, gloves or
cup. Let the perspiration subside before
disrobiug, if indoors, and, if out doors, al-
ways keeping gently moving until the usual
condition is attained.”

STRAl'I‘ 'IIARPOON FOUND IN A WHALE
CAUGHT our POINT Bsunow, IN THE ARCTIC
OCEAN.—Tlle American whulcship. Cornelius
Howland, Captain lioman, arrived at this
port on Tuesday last. Captain Homan and
his mule, Mr. Potter, report that they took a
polar whale 011' Point Burrow ,with the head
ofa harpoon marked “A. G.” imbeddcd in
the blubber, and the wound had healed over.
This harpoon is supposed to belong to the
bark Ansell Gibbs, of New Bedford, which is
known to have been engaged in the whale
fishery at Cumberland Inlet, in Davis Strait,
for ten or eleven years past. We have heard
before of instances where a w hole has been
caught at.Cumbcrlund Inlet, with harpoons
in them, with which they have been struck
in the Artie Ocean, but we believe this is
the firstauthenticated instance of a whale
having beemcaught in the; Artie Ocean with
a harpoon in it from the Davis Strait side.
This corroborates the view of those who
maintain that thre must, shmelimes at least.
