DOMESTIC ADVICE,
When your helpmeet inquires in a terrible
t tone,
7, ., "What kept you so late?" and, beginning
fe t0 moan,
Declares that "yon have no mere heart
than a. stone,''
r ' That "you're rapidly `wearing her down
LO a bone" -
Just let her, alone.
When sho floods all the house with a de-
luge of slops,
Till the plate is a vista of„buckets and
mops,.
And she says you oblige her to work till:
till she drops,".,
Don't seek to assort that your soul is your
own--•
Just let her aloin.
No Ewald argues, of course, With his
wife, •
Unless ho' s prepared for perpetual strife ;
If your .principal aim is 'a peaceable life,
And you'd change for the Torrid the Tem-
perate Zone. --
Just let her alone.
At last, when you've really stood all that
you can,
If you hear, on the quiet, that she has a
plan
To elope, on the gly, with another young

Il , '1.`o rush n and stop it, pray do not be

You let her alone.

At midnight, in a chicken coop,
Tho turkey dreamed upon the hour,
ie 'Mph When all tho fowls on earth should stoop
In
1.1w0 before bis power ;
In dreams, through field and lane ho bore
The graces of a conqueror ;
A.nd, thronged upon a Dorn-orib, then
He heard a thousand goblers sing,
Proclaiming him the poultry king ;
As wild his thoughts, and fleet of•wrng,
- As 13ulda1Fs spoolclod hen.
At midnight, by tho lantern's light,
Tho cook arranged his stealthy band, •
Their hatchet blades wore flashing bright,
11 1j And firm each willing hand.
et There had the fated poultry stood,
There had the thy earth drank their blood
On let Thanksgiving clay.
And these, that roost tonight so high,
Will taste as good in chicken pio,
Or be as nice to roast or fry,
Or fricassee, as they.
An hour passed on—tiro turkey woke,
That bright dream was his last;
He woke—while beams and perches shook,
With cries of "Ply, the cook ; fly. fast 1”
Ile woke—to die 'midst loud worths spoke
Iu quick command.; and hntohel stroke
,And dearth -blows falling thick. and, fast
As hailstones from a tempest aloud ;
And heard in voice distinct and loud,
The 000k cheer on his hand; .
Strike—till the last fat gobbler dies ;
Strike—for your roasts and chicken pies ;
Strike—till unearthly squawks and cries
I1osound"through all the land 1
•
k 1 ';,: They plied their hat0hot5 long'ancl well;
;', They piled the ground with poultry slain
They conquered-- and the turkey fell,
IVO I 1 Resistance ani in vain.
7xie few survivors who had crept
Away, in dusky corners slept
• While this dark deed was done,
...And now tiloy saw him borne away,
, ; Anel ready for Thanksgiving clay
. Before the rise of sun,
Ali I for the turkey Whom the 000k
• Had garnishes with his highest art,
The guests had many a longing look;
And strongest appetite o'ortook
Pull many a Valliant heart.
Thou turkey l with a savory sage
That garnished thy juicy prime,
Rest then ; there is 110 tender age,
In all our rugged Clime.

Tor thou wart taken at thy best,
And now had found eternal rest
In roast gaol ollieken pie.
