OH, CLING TO THE UNION.
Oh, cling to the Inion! that gallant old bark
Hath rede out the storm, when the unrool was dark;
Mer timbers are framed by a r!rifl band,
And they’re watching ber still from the shadowy land.
Oh, Cling to the Union ! *tis fresdom’s last trust ;
Her hope will have fled when it falls to the dust ;
The laugh of the tyrant will have sound o’er the plain
When he hears (rom our country the clank of his chaln.
Oh, cling to the Union ! fur brothers we are ;
We can spare from ou r flag not & stripe nor a star:
Tegether—united —our race let us run,
Por our hopes, our aims, and our glory are one.
Oh, cling 1o the Union ! “twas pr rchased with blood !
"T'was with the tears of the brave and the flmd }
The -:l.m- that formed it have gone to their rest,
And the turf lies green on each pairiot breast.
Then cling to the Union ! the hope of the world !
Lot the flag of (he free on the Yreezs be unfurled,
Tl liderty's song shall triumphantly roll
From ocean to ocean, from tropic to pule,
From the Lantern.
AN OLD STORY.
The snow (alls fust in the silert street,
And the wind s laden with eutting sleet;
And there is o pitiless glare in the sky
As o fainting woman goes waadering by.
The rags that wrapt her wasted form
Are frozen stiff in the perishing storm §
And she 15 50 co!d that the snow flakes rest
Unmelted, upna her marble breast,
Ah ! who coull believe that those rayless eyes
Were once as sunny as Aoril skies?
Ard the flowers she plucked in the early spring,
Lov d 1o be touched by so pure a thing !
*Pis past—and the fierce wind shrieking by,
Drowns the “wnt gasp of her parting sigh—
And Nhifeless she falls at the unter gate
Of win who has left her desolate.
Rilently fulls the snow on her face,
Clothing her form in its stainless grace ;
As théugh Gop in his mercy had willed that she
Should die in a garment of purity,
Sliscellancous.
TiHE BIBLE LEGEND:
OR., THE WISSAHIKON.
From Gesrge Lippard’s secon! lecture before the Wm.
Wirt Institute.
It was here in those wilds of the Wissahi
koo, situst~d about five miles out of Philadel
phia, oo the day of the baitle, as the noonday
sun came shiniog through the thickly clus
tered leaves, that two men met in deadly con
flict near a rock, that rose like the huge wreck
of some primevai warld, at least one hundred
feet above the dark waters of the Wissakikon.
That min with a dark brow, and the darker
grey eye, thshing with deadly light, with s
muscular form, clad 1o the blue hanting shirt
of the revolution, is a Continental named
Waraer. His brother was murdered the other
night at the massacre of Puaoli. T'hat other
man, with long black hair, drooping along his
cadaverous face, is clad in the half-military
costume of a Tory refugee. That is a mur
derer of Paoli, named Dabuey.
They had met there in the woods by acei
dent, sod now they fought, not with sword
or rifle, but with long and deadly hunting
koives, that thash 1o the Light asthey go turn
ing and twisting over the green sward uoder
them.
At last the Tory was down; down on the
green sward with the knee of the Continentul
upon his breast—that uprased koife quivering
io the high, that dark eye flashing grin death
in his face. -
‘Quarier—T yield ! gasped the Tory as the
knee was pressea upon hits breast, *Mercy =1
yield "
*My brother!" said the patriot soldier, in
that low deep tone of deadly bate—:MNy
brother cried for quarter on the bloody night
of Paoli, and even as he clung 1o your knres,
you plunged that knite into his heart. O, |
will give you the quarier you gave him a
Paon !’
And his hand was raised for the blow, and
his teeth were clenched in deadly hate. He
pansed for o moment, and then pinioned the
Torv's arms and with one rapid stnde drag
2e¢d hin 1o the verge of (he rock, and beld
him quiveriog over the ahyss.
‘Merey!" gasped the "Uury, turning black
anl ashy by tarns, as that awful gult vawned
below. *Mercy ! | bhave a wife and child—
gpare me !
Then tme Continental, with his museular
strength gathered ance maore for the effoar,
stook the marlorer one® mare over the fear
ful abves, and then hissed the bitter sueer Le
taern s 1) e
My brat er had 4 wife and two ehildren.
Themarming af ey the mght of Paoly, th o wife
wad g widow. hose chibdren were orphans.—
Wouldn' vou like to go now aod beg your
e of thiat widow and hee eluldren?
This propusdmote by the Continental in
the mere mockery of hate was takea by the
terror stricken Tory 1o serious earnest. He
begged to bhe : Lenrtathe widow anl her or
phao coil vew, 10 have the pintul pravilege of
bfl;umg hs life.
Afier a moment’s senons thonght the part
riot soldier conseated ;s he hoand Ithe Tory's
srms yet tighier, pliced ham on the rock
again=und lcd him up into the woods, A
quiet cottage. embosomed among trees. broke
o 0 their eyves.
They enicred that cottage. There, heside
that desolate hearthsione, sit the widow and
her childeen. Ste sat there, a matronly wo
man of thirty years, with a face fadea by care,
udeep da:k eye. und dang black hair hanging
in dishevelled flikes sbout her head snd
shoulders,
Qo one side was a dark haired boy of some
Six years—on the other a hittle girl, one year
vounger, with light hair and blue eyes. The
Bible, a 0 old and veuerable volume, lay open
on the mother's knee.
Aod then that pale faced Tory flungz him
self upon his knees, confessed that he had so
wantonly burchered her hushand on the night
of Paoli, but begged aard for his hfe at her
bands.
§ *Spare me for the sake of my wife and my
child "
He had expecied that his pitiful moan
would touch that widow's heart—but not one
relenting gleam sofiened her pale face.
*The Lord shall judge beiween us, she
#aid, io a cold icy tone that froze the murder
er's heart—'Look ! the bible luys open upon
my kaee. | will close this volume, and then
this boy shall open it and place his fluger at
random upoo a line. and by (hat line you
shall live ordie"
This was a strange proposal, and made in
full faith of the wild and dark superstition of
the olden time. Fora single moment, the
Tory koeeling there livid as ashes was wrap
ped in thought. Then in a (altering voice he
sigoifi«d lis consent, R vising ber dark eves
to Heaven, the mather prayed the great Faih.
or to direct the finger of her son, whose young
cheek reddened with loathing as he gized up
oo his father's murderer. He 100 k (he bible,
opened its holy pages at random, und then
slowly placed his finger on o verse, Then
there was a silcace. The Contineutal soldier
who had solemnly sworn 10 avenge his bro e
or's death, stood there with wild di!ted eyes
and parted lips. The calprit kneeling on (he
floor with a face like discolored clay, felt his
heart leap 1o his throat.
Then in a clear, bold voice, the widow read
this line frum the Oid Testament. It was
short but terrible:
*That man shall die "
Look !—ihe brother springs forward to sink
his knife into the murderer s heart; but the
Tm,, pinioned as he is, clings 1o the widow's
koees. He begs that oue more trial may be
made by the little girl=that ¢hild of fire years
with golden hair and lsughing eyes, The
widow conseats, and again there is 4y awful
pruse.
With a smile in her eye, without knowing
whet she does, tiat lintle girl opens the bible
a 8 1t lays on her mother's knee, she turns her
lrughing face away, shie places her finger on a
line.
" The deep deawn breath of the bhrather, the
broken gasp of the murderer, aioue disturb
the silence. The widow and dark eyed boy
are breathless. v
That linle girl, unconscious ss she was,
caught the feeling of awe from the counte
nances around her, and stood breathless, her
face turned aside, her tiny fingers resting on
that line of life or death.
At last, gathering courage, the widow bent
her cyes to the page and read. It was a line
from the New Testament,
‘Love YoOUR ENEMIES !
Ah, that moment was sublime.
Oh, awful Book of God in whose dread pa
ges we see Job talking face to face with Jeho
vah, or Jesus walking by Samaria's well, or
wandering by the dark vaves of Galilee. Oh,
awlul Book, shining to-mght as | speak, the
light of that widow's home, the glory of that
mechanic’s shop, shining where the world
comes not, to look on the last night of the
conviet in his cell, lighiing the way to God,
even over the dreadful gibbet. Oh, thou
Book of terrible majesty, and childlike love,
of sublimity that erushes the soul into awe,
of beauty that melts the heart with rapture,
vou nevershone more strangely beautiful than
vou did there, 1o the lonely cot of the Wissa
hikon, when vou saved the murderer's hile.
For, need I tell you, that murderer’s lifo
was saved, That widow recognized the fin
gerof God==even the stern brother was silent.
The murderer went on his way.
Now luok ye, bow wonderful are the ways
of Heaven.
That very night, as the widow sat by her
Fnely hearth—her orphans by her side—sat
there with scorched heart and hot eyve balls,
thinking of her husband, who now lay mould.
ering oo the blood drenched sod of Paoli—
there was a tap at the door. She opened it,
and that husband living, though covered with
many wounds was in her arms.
He had fallen at Paoli, but pot in death,—
He was ulive, and his wife lay panting in his
arms
That night there was a prayer in that cot
on the Wissahikon.
Twue Passions or Aximars —The follow
ing singular anecdote 18 found in a clever
book, recently pubtished, entitled the *Pas
stons of Annnals:
; A fine old gander, which had lived from
' youth 1o age in a sequestered spot oo the
i banks of the Solway, had become a great fa
| vorite with its owner, who used to take much
| pleasure in seeing the sentinel geese strutting
[through the long grass, rebuking the approach
lof every stranger, and leading forth a long
St of cackling young to dip their shooting
Cpintonsin the Solway. QOuoeseason, however,
either the demands tor a Christmas goose, or
the miduight depredations ot the fox or fou
fmart had become so numerous, that the poor
cold gander was left without a helpmate—a
~misfortune which he deplored, a day and
nizht, by many a doleful and sorrowful vote.
These atlectionate repivings did not escape
the observation of its owner's servaots, and
orders bad just been given for replacing the
extirpated brood of geese, when the widowed
biped suddenly disappeared, to the great regret
of the whole fammly. Ooe blamed the fox,
another the foumart, and a third the gipsies;
but the event proved they were all mistaken;
(fur, one morning as My, Craig was entering the
| breaklast parlor, be heard a well kuown cackle,
cand immediately exelaimed, *lf the old siag
chadpotbeen drowoed or worried, 1 could have
sworn it was his cry.” The call was immedi
ately repeated, and on going ont to the lawn,
or looking out of the window, Mr. Craig be
held the idennical old ginder surrounded by a
whole flock of Lonuy Iy geese, whose ap
proach he was thus proudly anwouncing, and
whose wings were still dripping with the brine
of that element through which he had taught
them to pilot their wav for a distance of at
leasttwelve mules. ‘T'his singular occurrence
oaturally excited a great deal of interest, and
after making every mquiry, it appeared that
the gander had enher been carried away by
the torce of the tide, or had voluntanly swam
to the opposite shore, where landing on some
Eoghish tirm. he had attached bimsell to one
ol the owoer s geese, and sojourned with bher
tilshe had hatehed a pretty numerous brood.
At dengih, finding tnat he had reared up
another timily to repeapte his favorite retrear,
or bewng atracted by the woods of his old
honars, while sporting on the Salway on some
clear sunny day, he ovee more ventured 1o
cross the water, carrying with him his English
spouse and her whaole brood,
Biavrirvr Froure —=Two piinters were

vegained his presence of mind, and seizing a

the beauniful piciure with unsightly blotches
of coloring. The painter flew forward, and
turned upon his frieod with fierce impreca

Cisperenta.—The origin of the tale from
which this pantomime was adopted is suffi
ciently curious. It was about the year 1730,
that a French actor, of equal talent and
wealth, named Trevenard, in passing through
the streets of Paris, observed upou a cobbler’s
stall the shoe of a female, which struck bim
by the remarkable smallness of its size. Af
ter admiring it for some time, he retnrned to
the house ; bnt his thoughts reverted to the
shoe with such intensity, that he reappeared
at the stall the next day; but the cobbler
could give no other clew to the owner, than
that it had been left, in his absence, for the
purpose of being repaired. Dy after day did
Trevenard return 1o his post to wateh the re
integration of this slipper, which proceeled
slowly : nor did the proprietor appearto claim
it. Although tie had completed the sixtieth
year of lus age, so extravagant became his
passion for the unknowa fair one that he be
came. (were it possible for a Freochman at
that day 10 be sO,) melancholy and miserable.
His pain was, however, somewhat appeased by
the avatar of the little foot itself, appertaining
10w predty and youthful girlin the very ham
blest class of life. All distinetions were level
led at once by love; the acior sought the pa
rents of the female, procured their consent to
the mateh, and actually made her bis wife.
An old lady, who was apt 1o be troubled in
her dreams, and rather superstitious withal,
informed the parson of the parish that on the
night previous, she dreamed she saw her
grandmother who had been dead for ten vears.
The clergyman asked what she had been eat
g, “Oh, only hall a mioce pie.’
‘Well' said he. *if you had devoured the
other hilf you might probably have seen your
graodfather, too.'
Curiovs Species or BarTEß'—]o the dis
triet of Bemio Sooar, in Western Barbary, a
mountainous conntry, inhabited only by Ber
ber tribes, there is one place where, dunog
the fair, a harter of a very curious kind takes
place. This fair is only held onze a year, and
18 chiefly resorted to for the purpose of bach
elors fiuding their wives, married men adding
to their matrimonial treasures, and maidens or
widows getting husbands. In factthe whole
affuir res Ives itself into the women selling;
themselves, but to escape the ignominy of
such a procedure, the traffic is carried on as
follows : Kach maiden desiring to enterinto
wedlock, dresses hersell in her best and most
becoming attire, and taking with her a piece
of cloth of her owo weaving, sits down unveil
ed in the market place. I'ne men, both
young and old, who are candidates for matri
mony, parade abontihe market examining the
texture of the cloth displayed by the ladies,
and serutinizing at the same time their looks
and behavior. Should the customer be pleas
ed with the maiden, he enquires the price of
the cloth. She replies by namiong what she
would expect as « dowry, and the amount of
this she raises or depresses, according as the
canditate for her heart may pl:ase her, re.

should she be averse to the purchaser. Du
ring this barter, the enamored swain is able,
in some degree to judge her temper and char
weter. Il they come to an agreement, the
parents of the girl are appealed 10, and they
have the right to assent or not as they please.

A Romance or oun Varuey.—The fol-
Jowing incident will interest some of our read
ers, from the fact of 118 having an association
with the burning of Royalton, and the other
revolutionary events of 1780, which we have
heard related by our grandfathers when we
were dandled on the knce.—Green Mountain
Fagle.
A few years ago two old acquaintances
chanced to meet and tall into conversation
under a large tree on the bank of the White
River, near the spot where the Indians forded
their captives on the way to Cavada; when
during the conversation, one of them listless
ly beating the earth about the roots ol the
tree, threw out a circular substance, which,
when the encasing dirt was removed, proved
to be a massive gold ring of antique workman
ship. Various were the speculations of
course, which took place between the two
friends respecting the original ownership of
the ring ; but nothing was ascertained about
it vl some months afierwards, when the finder
made a journey to one of the old towns nea
the seaboard, from which some of the early
settlers of Royalton had emigrated. Here
calling on a family with which he hal some
business, 1o the dusk of the evening, some
thing in the course of the conversation re
minded him of the ring which he had on his
finger. He related the singular incident ol
his findiog it under & tree on White River.
Vi, when sn old lady of nearly ninety years,
who had been sitting in silence io an obscure
corner of the room, sprang up, and coming
forward, requested him to tell that story
again. He did so, and the old lady at once
identified the ring as her own, She, when a
airl, was one of the female captives taken at
Rovalton, and ¢arnied 1o Canada, from which
she was ransomed and taken back 1o her rel
atwves in the old setitlement. When taken,
she had this ring on her finger, and fearing i
wonld artract the attention of the savages, and
perhaps endanger her Life, she took it off, and |
cast it down at the roots of the tree where it |
was found. We believe 1t was a helmlhul‘
ring 3 but what romanee io real life, if any
grew out of the loss we are not apprised, "
i CrHArACTERISTIC. —One morning a stage
coach drove npan tront of a hotel in the cin
Lot Wheehng, contmning four pissengers of
* the *upper tendaom,” who had pad for ali the
seats, for fear of being disgraced by the com
‘ pany of some plebeian. A voung man who
' was anxious to proceed east on pressing bus
mess. demanded a seat in the atoressid coach
which was refused, He stated the impor
tance of s business, but his pleading aad ex
planations were to no purpose, and the driver
and pssengers insolently told him he could
not go. An aged gentleman mught have been
seen standiog at a window in the second story
intently watching the movements of the par
ties ; bring sansfied of the cause he came
down stairs, and inquired why the young man
was to be left—which was, that the seats were
all taken—at which he approached the coach
and opened the door, and finding the middle
seat empty, he turved to the young man, say
ing=-*Young man, it is your right to occupy
a seat io this coach, and do it at all hazards,’
which he did to the chagrio of the monopo
lists, and proceeded on his journey. ‘Chat

Business Courresy —Nothing more cer
tainly marks the gentleman, than the obser
vance of a uniform courtesy and kindness in
the business of life. Such a bearing towards
all men should be cultivated, till it grows to
be a habit. Surely kind words are as abun
dant and cost no more than harsh ones.—
Miny a man has robbed himself of successby
an austere and haughty manner. Such an
address chills those whom interest attructs,
and itimpairs a confidence, that might be
come almost fond. There is nothing like a
gentle, qaiet and polite manoner in business,—
Petulauce and passion grow worse by indul
gence, and utterly unfit their possessor for
pleasant intercourse with his fellows. Bu
every gentleman has a right to demand and
receive courteous trearment at the hands of
those with whom he may deal. [le is worse
than a boor, who purposely and cooully re
fuses to extend it.
T'he following recipe for a cold we can say

pain and distress that my friends llmufln I should be
crazy, and | was in fact in such Yuin and distress, that |
hardly knew what I was about, gotavial of your Great

intwo days [ was omiro‘l‘y cured, and I have been per
fectly well even to this date. | have used no medicine
since the first two days I used your Balsam. I cannot
