-Rollback the tidt of time-
Aid raise the buried form of other yenri"
I etood on earth'a remotest shore,
The billowy river Time to see
Urged on by every new year more,
And seek the flood, eternity.
Roll back cried I the headlong tide,
I'd see the forma ita surges hide.
Pale memory aadly raised her wand,
In answer to mv earliest prayer;
The dark waves bar.k again returned.
Hut hope'ssoft light was seen not there.
Ilowdnrkthe scene that met mya ght,
Where hope had eeaaed to shed her light.
Back rolled the tide, wave after ware,
'1 hut dimly gleamed in human gore
But ah! such wrecka were in their graves,
A n'eracain may leave time's aliere,
KnA we'll not lift oblivions pull,
Where Empires, thrones or patriots fa' I.
Earth'a Vullures Famine, Fire and Sword.
O'er every aije their vigils kepi
And Oh! the gha-lly livid horde.
That followod where contagion swept.
But on these my muse thou sjiay'nt nut dwell,
For an humble tale ia thine to tell.
A lowly thenie but not less and,
Is that of orphantftge beieft
In that vast host were milli-mt clad,
With sorrow, infamy and death
Where first the founts of feeling flow,
The heart is stamped for joy or woe.
There ia a depth in human love,
That finds earth no-where its kin;
'Twould scan all hell and heav'n a'iore
To find a kindred tie within:
So wild the waves of passion roll,
.Moved by the hunger of the soul.
Ah! ye who merely know by mame,
The power of passion on the heart,
Ye feebly judse by candle flame,
What volumes Etna's fires may start.
The burning soul iea fearful thing.
More fleet more wild tiiun the tompest wing
I saw the child when first he knew,
Himself alone, hia til above
He sought so earnest, long nnd true,
The love from him forever gone.
His lonely heart aid so much need,
Some friend t love, so. le fricud to heed:
But childhood's trace Tind scarcely gone,
Till he the fatal knowledge read,
The world, the friendless leave alone,
And are by wcalih and pleasure lead.
The blight that came o'er Kdena bowers,
Had its counterpart in hia dark hours.
Then followed little deeds of wrong.
The firist foreiunners of dispair:
Willi them came the unthinking throng
Who'f sensure leaves no mercy there
0 'ti so strange the world will show
No love, where they no interest know.
At length a hi ghway murderous band
Now hailed him welcome to their home
They met hi in with a brother hand
And the wanderer stood no more alone
The seeds ef good that chance had given
Were from his heurt forever riven.
When next the waves brought him to sight
His hands were ded in hmiMn gore
The prison Hulls shut out the light
And the garb of death hia future wore
He wept once more as when a child,
Then curie i the world and frantic smiled.
Isuw him mount the gallows' sl.iir
E'en then a noble wreck of youth
In childhood hn had looked so fair
He seamed the very phase oft ruth
1 heard the crowd in tneaeured lays
Talk loud and lougel virtue's wave:
Heard them talk of his hardened heart
Whose inmost thoughts they never kuew
And tell how dark hnd beau his part
In life's sad trag' dy so true.
The Pharicee cried vdlimi die
l'uu must not live iiiong men like I.
Thnreare some hears of medium hue
Who never knew l.fe's wild extreme
And can theii judgemente'er be true
Of sou's whose depth thoy never dream?
Such well may load a tranquil life
There's nought within them prompts to strife.
How can they each ae Christiana great
Who've not a thought of charity?
Go look where fire and water meet
When each one strives for mastery,
And see il'thuu c.inet set their uouud
hy toimsieM rules thou lust found.
Hast thou n'erseen the tranquil wave
Lay like au infant sleeping
Then Like a manian wildly rave
By storm tremenduons leaping?
Tlion has limn thought the human heart
Iteveiy striking counterpart?
Hael thou n'er seen the little cloud
Rett like a dove in breast of e'vn
In blackest garb the blue arch shroud
When wakened by the winds of heaven?
Dispise not then the' souls that's driv'u
By cruel lute frem hope and henv'n
If thou must needs thy brother nan
Frist learu how warm his heai t may be
How high his aspirations ran
And then remember charity. ,
Diapise him not but take his hand
And point ti i us to that belter Land.

A CALMUC TALE.
or
to
A rich man v. ho resided at the extremity
of the camp, quite apart from the rest, had
three duukhtera, the voungett of which nam
ed Kookju, was as much distinguished for her
beauty as eitraoruinary wisdom.
One morning, as be was about driving his
cattle fur rile to the Chan's market place, he
oegea ins daughters to tell lura what pres
ents tbey wished him to bring them on his re
turn. The two oldest ajked him for trinkets,
but the handsome and wite Kookju said that
she wanted no presents, but thut she had a
request to make which would be difficult, and
even dangerous, for him to execute. Up-n
which the father, who loved her mote than
the two others, swore that he would do her
wish though it were at the price of his life.
If it be so repliid Kookju, I beg you to do
as follows: self your cattle, ex cot the short
tailed ox, and ask no other price for it except
the Chan's K-ft eye. The old man was slur
lled ; however, remembering his oath, and eon
tiding iu bis daughter's wisdom, he resolved
lo do as she bade him.
After having told all bis cattle, and being
asked for the price of the short tailed ox, he
said 'hat he would sell it for nothing else but
the Chan's left eye. The report of this sing
ular and daring request Boon reached the ears
of Chan's courtiers. At first they admonish
ed him to use no such offensive speech against
the soveign ; but when they found that be per
severed in his strange demand, they bound
him and carried him as a madman before tho
Chat). The old man tbrew himself at the
Prince's feet, and confessed that his demand
had been made at tho request of his daughter
of whose motives be was perfcotly ignorant;
aud the Chan, suspecting thut some secret
must be hidden in this extraordinary request
dismissed the old man under the condition'
that he must bring that daughter who made
it.
Kookju Appeared, and the Chan asked.
'Why dost thou instruct thy father lo de
mand my left eye?'
'Because I expected, my Frince, that after
no strange a request, curiosity would urge thee
to send lor me.'
'And wherefore dost thou desire to see
me?'
I wish to toll thee a truth, important to
thyself and thy people.'
Name it?'
'Prince,' replied Kookju, 'when two persons
appear before thee in n cause, the wealthy
and the noble generally stand on thy right
hand, while the poor and humble stand on thy
left. I have heard in my solitude, that thou
mist frequently favoresl the noble and the
rich. This is the reason why 1 persuaded my
father to ask for thy left eye it being of no
use to thee, since thou never seest the poor
and unprotected.'
The i;lian, incensed and surprised at the dar
ng of this maiden, commanded his court lo try
her. Tho court was opened and tho rrest-
dwn, who was the eldest Lama, proposed thut
they should try whether her strange proceed
ing was the elfrict of malice or wisdom.
Their first step was to send to Kookju a log
of wood, cut even on all sides, ordering her to
find out which was the root and which the
top. Kookju soon threw it into the water aud
soon knew the answer, on seeing the root link
ing, whilst the top rose to the surface.
After this they sent her two snakes, in or
der to determine which was a male and
which was a femalo. The wise maiden laid
them on cotton, and on seeing that one coiled
herself up in a ring, whilst the other crept a-
way, she judged that the latter was s male
and the former a female.
From these trials the Court was convinced
that Kookju had not offended the Chan from
mottees of malice, but the inspiration of wis
dom granted her from above. But nbfso the
Chan: nis vanity was nurt, and lie resolved lo
puzzle her with questions, in order to prove
that she was not wise. He, therefore ordered
her before him aud usked.
On sending a number of maidens inlo tho
wood lo gather apples, which of them will
bring borne most?
'She, rcnled Kookju who instead ot climb
ing up the trees, remains below and picks up
thoso which have fallen on Irotn maturity or
the shaking of the branches.
The Chan tiien led her to a fence, Si asked
her which would be the readiest way to got
over; and Kookju said 'to cross it would be
the furthest, going around nearest.' llie
Chan felt vexed at the readiness and eroprie
ty of her replies; and after having reflected
for some time, he again inquired :
'Which is the safest means of becoming
known to many ?'
liy assisting muny that are unknown.'
Which is lite safest means of leading a vir
tuous life?'
'To begin every morninrr with prayer and
conclude every evening with some good ac
tion.'
'Who is truly wise ?
He who does not believe himself so.
'Which are the requisites for a good wife ?'
"She should be beautiful us a pea-hen, gen
tle as a lamb, prudent as a mouse, just as a
faithful mirror, pure as the scales of a fish;
she rcusi mourn for her deceased husband
tike a she camel, and live in her widowhood
like a bird which has lost its wings."
The Chan was astonished at the wisdom of
the fair Kookju; yet enraged at her having
reproached lum with injustice, he slill wished
to destroy her
After u few days he had found the moans
for attaining his object He sent for her and
asked her to determine the true worth of all
his treasures; after which ho promised to ab
solve her from malice in questioning his justice
and to admit that she intended as a wise wom
an, merelv to warn him.
The maiden consented, yet under tho con
dition that the Chan would promise her im
plicit obedience to her coramandt for four days.
Shu requested that he would eat no food for
four days. On the last oay slio placed a dish
of meat before him, and said 'Confess, O Chan
that all thy treasures are not worth as much
as this joint of meat!' The Chan was so
struck with tho truth of it, acknowledged her
as wise, married her to his. son, and permitted
her conltantly to use Ins left eye.
Cold Friday.—1810.
The 19th of January, 1810, was a day
the intense coldness of which will be long re
membered by those who cxprienced its rig
or. Those who were not out of doors, but
had reached an ago rendering them capablo
of retaining impression then received, have
doubtless a recollecting of occurrences ta
king place around them. The evening pro
vious was as mild ni those wo have been fa
vorcd with in such numbers this winter: but
in the night the wind changed, the weather
suddenly became cold, and tho mercury in
less than 16 hours descended to 17 degrees
below zero. A boisterous wind prevailed, by
which trees, and in some cases houses, were
blown down, and the day booing memorable
in New England as the "CulJ Friday." Here,
in Concord, so near as our recollection serves
there was very little going from place to place.
Farmers piled on the wood, aud altemlod to
their cattle, and that was about nil for the
day. In this village, such as went to a neigh
bor's or to a store, upon errands which could
not be deferred, sped the ground like s tuir
rels, und were fortunate if they returned with
no tti'sli Iroxen by tho intensity of thu forest.
from Vol. v., of tho New llnmpsliiru llis
torical Society's collections, the following ac
count is taken of an occurrence on that day
in tne townot sanbornton:
"On Friday morning, the 19th ot January,
Mr. Jeremirh Ellsworth, of Sanbornton, fin
ding the cold very severe, rose about an hour
before sunrise. , It was but a short time be
fore some part of his bouse was, burst io ho
wind. Beinjj apprehensive that the whole
house would soon be demolished, and that
the lives of the family were in great jeopardy
Mrs. Ellsworth with her youngest child,
whom she had dressed, went into the cellar,
leaving the (Jther two children in bod. Her
husband undertook logo lo the nearest niegh
bor, which was in a north direction, for as
sistance, but the wind was so strong against
him that he found it impracticable. lie then
set out for Mr. David Brown's tho nearest
house in another directi in, ot tho distance of I
a quarter of a mile. He reached there about
sunrise, his feet being considerably frozen, nnd
he ro overcome with toe cold that both he
and Mr. Brown thought it too hazardous for
him to return. Mr. Brown went with his horse
and sleigh, with nil possible speed, to save the
woman and her children from impending de
struction. When he nrrived nt the house he found
Mrs. Ellsworth and one child in the cellar, and
the other children in bed, their clothes laving
been blown away by the wind, so that they
could not be dressed. Mr. Brown put a bed
into the sleigh, and placed the three children
upon it, and covered them with the bed
clothes. Mrs. E. also got into tho sleigh.
They had proceeded only six or eight rods be
fore the sleigh was blown over, and the chil
dren, bed, and covering were scattered by the
wind. Mrs, Ellsworth held tho horse, while
Mr. Brown collected tho children and bed, and
placed them in the sleigh again. Sho then
concluded to walk, hut before sho reached
.Mr. Brown's house she was so benumbed by
the cold that she sunk dow to '.ho ground,
linding it impossible to walk any further. At
hist she concluded sho must perish ; but stim
ulated by a hope of escape, sbo made another
effort, by crawling on her hands and knees, in
which manner she reached her husband, but
so altered in her looks that he did not at first
know her. His anxiety for his children led
him twice to conclude to go to their assist
ance; but the earnest importunities of his
wife, who supposed he would perish, and that
she should survive but a short tune, prevent
ed him.
Mr. Brown, having placed the children in
the sleigh a second time, had proceeded but
a lew rods, when the sleigh was blown over
and torn to pieces, and the children driven tr
some distance. He then collected them o:ce
more, laid them on the bed, nnd covered them,
and then called for help, but to no puvpose:
knowing that the children must soor. perish
in that situation, and being pierced to the
heart by their distressing shrieks, he wrnpped
them all in a coverlet, and attempted to carry
tnem on nis shoulder, but was soon blown
down, and the children separated from him by
uio violence oi tne wina.
Finding it impossible to carry thorn all, he
left tho youngest, the one who happened to
bo dressed, placing it by the side of a large
log. He then attempted to carry the other
two, but was soon stopped as before. Ho then
took them one under each arm, with no other
clothing than their shirts, and in this way, al
though blown down every few rods, he arri
ved nt Ins house, nfter being absent about two
hours. The children, though frozen stiff, were
alive, but died within a few minutes. Mr.
Bown's hands and feet were badly frozen, tud
was so much chilled and exhausted as to
be umible to return for the child left behind.
The wind continued its severity, nnd no
neighbor called until the afternoon, when
there was every reas.in to believe the child
left was dead. Towards sunset a physician
nnd some other neighbors arrived, several of
whom went in search of the other child, which
was found and brought in dead. The lives
of tho parents were saved, but they were left
childless."
Mr. Brown, we are informed by a gentle
man of Sanbornton, lived until a few years
ago, but never recovered from the effects of
that day. He became nearly or quite blind,
and continued thus as long us be lived. N.

Extreme Unction.
OR, THE HORSE JOCKEY'S SPIRITUAL ADVISER.
KR.
A noted horse jockey in Cincinnti, who had
by his profound knowledge of llorseology and
various arts and sciences 'adjacent thereto' ac
cumulating a considerable property, was a
great hypochondriac, and exaggerated eve-y
siigtit uisoruer mat attacked uim into, a dan
gerous disease. ' Some of his neighbors
were uncharitable enough to assert that his
conscience made him tremble at the slightest
menace of death. It is certaiu that whenev
er he was laid upon his bed with sickness, he
began straightway to talk aloud of hi ap
proaching dissolution, and bore his friend aud
relations with querulous complaints. Once
when sick, an old confederate who had travel
ed with him and aided him in spoiling the E-
gy plains in every county in the State, called
on him. This friend comprehended the na
ture of bis complaint at onco and requested
the family to Allow him to manage matters in
his own way a day or two. He changed the
tactics which others had previously employed
and, instead of prophesying smooth things, be
out-Ueroded tlerod in croaking him a dying
man.
He called on him the second day about
noon, and taking his sick friend's wrists be
tween his fingers, he shook bis head and
mourned, "poor fellow, it will soon be over."
"This is hard, Sam," said the sick prufussor
ot llorseology, nnd he groaned in great bitter
ness of spirit.
"Hard enough," suid Sam, "just as you've
got. this nice farm paid for. Your boys'il
raise the devil with u wueu you are gone.'
Oh Oh!"
"What's the mr.ttei ?"
"Oh, such a pain shot through me!'
"Hain't you got anything on your mind
that you want to say pretty soon ? That last
horso you suld tor a colt was as old at a
man, you know."
'Oh, no Sam, I've nothing to say that is
I've got so much to say, that it's no use to
try I"
try?"
'Sam!'
'What.'
Oan't you can't you pray for me.
'Well, it's something thut ought to bo done
nd,J thiijV tUtry.' k , . , . r .
Satn knelt down and the tick one covered
his head with ihe blanket and fairly writhed
in agony of soul. Satn began keeping one
corner of an eye upon the bed.
'Oh Lord thy servant that's now lyihg sick
on the bed, Imvmrr burnt out tho candle of life
in the service of the devil, (groans from the
blanket) is now desirous of throwing the snuff
n Ins maker s face (sick ono peeps out.) Here
lies n broken down nag, spavined, ring boned
and heavy, and thou knowest that he hnsrais-
ed the hardest colts in this neighborhood.
(Blanket jerked down convulsively.) I lion
knowesf Lord, that he has been one of the
greatest liars, (heighteno. I color in the tick
man's face,) and cheats, (fist doubled under
the blanket,) an 1 the d dest horso jocksy,
that ever trotted over thy footstool.
"It's an infernal lie, yott scoundrel!" said
the reviving patient. "You're a cussed sight
worse than ever I could be! nnd he leaped
from the bed. "You cheated me twice your
self you cussed hypocrite!' roared the furious
invalid and he fairly turned his friend out of
ooors.
Ths horse jockey was abroad the next day
and soon commenced sending his boys to
school, and soon reforming his own manner of
life. He was changed from the very bour
tho prayer nt his bedside, and lived nnd died
a better man. Yankee Blade.
