AS SUSQ BT THE WASDEBER'j SLjTKB,
Do we miss thee at home, do we miss the.
Or art thou bo shortly forgot ?
Twere cruelty even to doubt us,
Whatever, wherever thy lot.
I have seen the firm lips of thy father
t)ft tremble on hearing thy name,
'And he ft.-ls that thy prifxiicc were better
Than be told of thy greatness end fame.
And the gleam of hi3 pride and his pleasure,
But brightens the struggling tear
All yields to his yearning affection,
He sighs, M Oh I would he were here."
The woman's heart suffers her sorrow,
But stronger is grief in the strong ;
We murmur thy dear name oft over
My brother why tarry so long r
Each plume that you pluck from fame's pinion,
Each laurel you wreath on your brow,
But severs us farther and farther
When we would that thou wert with U3 now.
lis life and hope rent from mother,
"Whose eyes w ill J : frequently fill,
Whose voice often thrills with emotion,
"My boy! oh! why lingers he still V
And oft, when no eye can behold her,
In secret to her chamber she steals,
And calls for the blessings of heaven
To rest on thy head as she kneels ;
And the tears pearl her eyes like the diamond,
Or spray of the ocean's white foam,
Oh God, will the wanderer never return
Will he nevt r no never come home f '
I remember hew often we rambled
And laughed In our childhood's glee j
How you sought for the violet and daisy
And twined them in garlands for me.
IIow to me your first love you confided,
IIow sagely I sought to console,
IIow you ached to surpass your young rival
And strove with your mightiest soul
IIow Into your ear ever open,
TThe griefs of my childhood confessed
How fondly your arms were thrown around mo
As I wept on your manlier breast.

The lady editor (the "better half?") of the Fire
side Visiter, playfully utters a couple of truths in
this wise : " When a woman takes up a paper, she
reads the marriages and deaths, to see if there are
any familiar names glances at the arrivals and
tries, perhaps, to wade through a tedious article o;a
the war. A man always appropriates a newspaper
as quietly as he does a coat there is just as little
doubt of its being manufactured expressly for hi in, ;
and with the wisdom of !alf-a-dozen owls expressed
in his face, he settles himself to his intellectual repast."
Hymxs. No other composition is like an experi
mental hymn. It is not a mere poetic impulse. It
is not a thought, a fancy, a feeling threaded upon
words. It is the voice of experience speaking from
t: soul a few words that condense and often repre
sent a whole life. It is the life, too, not of the natu
ral feelings growing wild, but of regenerated feeling,
inspired by God to a heavenly destiny, and making
its way through troubles and hindrance, through joys
and victories, dark or light, sad or serene, yet always
struggling forward. Forty years the heart may have
been in battle, and one verse shall express the fruit
of the whole. One great hope may come to fruit only
at the end of many years, and as the ripening of a
hundred experience?.

Among other things, he announces that he is able to

a halter, to thread a needle, to ascend and descend a
ladder, to uncork a bottle with a cork screw, to load
a fowling piece and kill anything designated, or put

enough for a man without either legs or arms.
The lawyers, by setting up the plea of insanity,
saved Fyler, who murdered his wife in the interior

smart for the children of Beelzebub.
The Czar's Coronation. We read in the Berlin
(July 24) correspondence of the London Times :
The programme for the popular festivities that
are to accompany the coronation in Moscow, has al
ready received the sanction of the Emperor in the
form in which it has been drawn up by the Director
of the Imperial Theatres, Guedeanoff. In addition to
other provision for the entertainment of those assem
bled in the old Russian capital there will be compa
nies of Russian, German and French actors, and Ital
ian opera sinners. Among the numerous crowd of
applicants for Government concessions, the French
are in all branches of enterprise the most favored.
A French company, for instance, has received the
permission to erect a large bazaar for articles of art,
luxury, and general trade on one of the largest open
spaces in the town of Moscow ; the building is to be
somewhat of the shape of a tent, with glass sides and
glass roof, and is to communicate with an establish
ment for refreshments and a coffee house.
"With reference to the approaching coronation,
the Emperor has selected 27 pages from out of the
highest Russian, German, Finnish, and even Orien
tal families ; the number of horses from the Imperial
studs which are now in course of beinsr forwarded to

During the present year, astronomers are to be on

Compared with drawings made two hundred years

body of the planet.
O'DoxxEXL, TnE Spanish Premier. Gen. O'Don
nll, the hero of the late Spanish coup d'etat, has
been before the public for many years, but the follow
ing incident in his life, furnished by the London
Leader, will be new to our readers :
' In the Gulf of Mexico, between the northern
tropics and the equator, is a large and highly popu
lous island, with a very numerous negro population.
A few years ago the governor of that island had not
long been appointed ; he had discovered, from some
sources which to this day remains totally unknown
and unconfirmed, that the negroes were on the verge
of a universal insurrection. Military parties were
sent over the whole island in order to take measures
against the revolt. The officer of any one of the mili
tary parties thus distributed would come upon the
estate of a planter, and inform him of the contempla
ted insurrection.
A single case will show the object of this strange
precautionary measure. The planter receives his of
ficial visitor with surprise ; he has heard of no insur
rection amongst his slaves ; in fact, he does not be
lieve the story, and he avows his disbelief. Now
surely the planter ought, at least, to know more of
his own men than a lieutenant of infantry from a
distance, particularly as the lieutenant does not think
fit to disclose a single fact in proof of the asserted re
volt. A sudden light breaks upon the planter : he is
so confident of his slaves that he offers to be bail for
the whole body of them ; and as a step to ' make
things pleasant,' he offers a kind of free-will offering,
say of three thousand dollars. The lieutenant sees
that the planter understands matters ; he has still
further to go in the course of his visitation, and he
will call as he comes back. During the absence of
the lieutenant with his men, the planter bethinks
him that three thousand dollars is more than he is
obliged to pay, and when the lieutenant returns, the
planter is avowedly more convinced than ever that
the slaves thought of nothing less than a revolt ; so
he proposes to make things pleasant on less expensive
terms to give, say only one thousand five hundred
dollars.
Remember, says the lieutenant, that I did not
ask for any money at all; but since you have men
tioned a sum, I cannot, of course, take less;' and he
goes away empty-handed. Soon after, however, he
returns again, retaining his original conviction that
the negroes intended a revolt; and to punish them, a
number of them are flogged. The flogging is so
severe that many of them are permanently injured
and some of them are killed. The planter estimates
the injury to his property at the sum of $10,000.
Other proprietors had not been guilty to the same
backsliding, but equally perceiving the proper way to
make things pleasant, they had preserved, and had
secured immunity for their estates. It has been said
that during the suppression of that apocryphal,
as many as 10,000 negros were killed. They were
the property, of course, of the planters who had
viewed the subject after what we may call our friend's
second manner. No negroes were flogged to death
on the estates of the planters that had made things
pleasant. The Govrenor resided in the island not a
very great number of years. He entered as a notori
ously poor man indeed it was his poverty, joined
with the favor of his sovereign, which caused him to
receive-the appointment; he left the island in the
possession of a large fortune. That island was Cuba
the Governor, General O'Donnell."
