CARRIER'S' ADDRESS " TO TRH 'PATRONS OF THE HURON EXPOSITOR. .fir". -01 KIND 'PATRONS, —W e newspaper carriers are rime's en -and -boys; and all the yea r: round, the old -gentle- man sends is from one of your doors to earci-ge.elt-, to let you know ,what he is ti.fiiing about and what he is doing. We are a strange set of urchins; tor, punetually onNew Yeaes morning, one and alt ,of us are seized with a fit of rhyme, and break forth ii such hideous- strains, that it would be no wonder if the infant year, with her Step upon the threshold, were frightened away by the discord with which we strive to welcome het. On these .occasions, most generous patrons, you 'never fail to give trs a taste of your bouc- ty ; but whether as a reward for our verses, or to purchase a respite limn farther infliction of them, is beS: known to your worshipful selvea.: Moreover, we, Tithe's errand -boys as aforeaaid, feel it incumbent upon us, on the first day, of eve-ty year, -to present 'a sort 'of summary of our -master's dealings 'pith the World throughout the whole of the preced- ing twe1ve-MO.11th. Now it has so -chanced by a misfortune heretdore 'unheard of, -that I your present' pe- 'titioner, have been altogethet forgot- ten by the Muse. -Instead of _being ahle Os I naturally expected) to measure my ideas into six-foot Iines and tack a 'ill one at each cof' their tails, I fund myself, this blessed morning, the same simple proser that. 1 waS yesterday, and shall probably . -be to -morrow.

SUch 'being 'my unhappy predicament, itris 'Withal.° small con- fusion of face, ihat I make:bold to present myself at your doors. -Yet it were surely a ,pity that myclion- Appeatance shouldidefeat your boun- tiful designs fdr the replenishing of . jypoekets. Whet efore I have. be- thought me, that, it , might not dis- pleae yofie-worships to heat a few partioulars about the ,person and habits of='Father Time, With whom, as being -one .of his errand -boys,. I have more acquaintance than Most lads of my years. Fora great many years past. there = has be a wood -put on the cover of the various Almanacs, pretending to be ,a portrait ',of Father Time. It rePresents that respectable person- ae as almost ;n a state of nudity, 0, with -a single' -lock of hair on his forehead, wrfiga on his shouldetS, and accoutred with a scythe and an. hour -glass. These two latter symbols appear to betoken that the old fel- low works in haying time, by the hour. But, within my recollection, Time ha S never carried a scythe and an hour -glass, nor worn a pair of wings, nor shown himself in the half -naked condition that the alma- nac would make us believe. NOw-, a -days, he is the most fashionably-. dressed -figere about town ; take itto be his natural dispositiOin, old as he is, to adopt every fashion of the day and of. the hour.' Just at the present period; you may meet him in a furred surtout, with panta- loons tstrapped under his narrow -toed boots ; on his head, instead of a gle forelock, he wears a smart -au- burn wig, with bushy whiskers of the same hae, the whole SUrrnounted by a Germarr lustre hat. He has exchanged his hour-gla,ss• for gold patent -lever watch, which he carries in his vest pocket ? and as for his scythe, he has either thrown it aside altogether, ue coneeanted its handle into a cane not much stouter than a riding..switoh.', If you stare him full in the face, you win perhaps detect a few wrinkles; but, on. 4 hasty glance, you might suppoSe him to be in the very hey -day Of life, as fresh as he was in- the garden o Eden., So much for the pi esent as- pect of Time ; bet 1 by no mean, insure that the .description shall suit him a month 1i6ce, or even at thi. hour ,bo -morrow. -- It 'is -another very common mis take, to suppose that Time wandet. among old ruins, and sits on mould ering walls and moss -grown stones meditating abcut matters whic everybody else has forgotten. Som people, perhaps, would expect t , find hire at the bhrial-ground por infes over the , halfi1itgihe inscri tions on the tombs. But they nee not seek him there. Time is invai ably the first to forget his own -deed his own history, and his own forme associates. His place is in the bus est bustle of the world. If yo would meet. Time face to face, yo have only to promenade our prin pal streets, and thare among beau and belles, you will see old Fath Time,. apparently the gayest .of t gay.
