MY LAMBS.
: I loved them so '
That when the elder Shepherd of the fold
Came, covered with the storm, and pele and eold,
And begged for one of my sweet lambs to hold,
1 bade him go.
He elaimed the pet, |
A little fondling thing, that to my breast |
Cluag always, either in quiet or unrest. ‘
1 thought, of all my lambs, Ilovwgd him best ;
And yet—and yet—
I Jaid bim down
In those white, shroudad arms, with bitter tears;
For seme voice told me that, in after years,
He should know nought of passion, grief or fears,
As I had known.
And yet again
That elder Shepherd came : my heart grew faint;
He claimed another lamb—with sadder plaint
Another !—she who, gentle as a saint,
Ne'er gave me pain.
3 Aghast I torned away!
There sat she, lovely s an angel's dream,
Her golden locks with sunlight all agleam,
Her boly eyes with heaven in their beam.
, I knelt to pray.
i “Is it Thy will #
My Father, say must this pet lamb be given ?
Ob! Thou hast many such, dear Lord, in Hea
ven;"”
Ard s soft voice said, “‘ Nobly hast thou striven,
But—peace, be still "
Ob ! how I wept,
And clasped her to my bosom, witha wild
And yearning love ! - my lamb, my pleasant ehild!
Hartoo I gave! The little angel smiled,
And slept ! ;
“Go! go!" I cried,
For once agein that Shepherd laid His hand
Upon the noblest of our household band ;
Like a pale spectre, thero he took his stand,
Close to his side.
And yet how woundrous sweet
That look with which he heard my passionate ery,
Touch not my lamb! For him, oh! let medieo!”
* A little while,” he said, with smile and sigh,
Again to meet.”
Hopeless T fell,
And when I rose, the light had burped so low,
So faint, T could not sce my darling go.
He bad not bidden me farewell ; but oh ! |
I felt farewell,
More deeply far
Than if my arms had compass'd that slight frame;
Thougk could I but have heard him eall my
pame-—
Deer mother!’—but in Heaven ’‘twill be the
sama -
There burns my star !
He will not take
Azother lamb, I thought, for only cne
Of the dear fold is spared, to be my sun, . f
My guide, my mourner, when this life is done— !
My heart would break. |
Oh! with what thrill ‘
I heard him enter ! But I did not know {
(For it was dark) that he had robbed me so : |
Theidol of my soul—ke could not go— i
Oh! heart, be still !
Came morning : ean I tell ,
How this poor frame its sorrowful tenant kept ?
For waking tears were mine ; I sleeping wept, ’
And days, months, years, that weary vigil kept. |
Alas! “ farewell!” t
How often it is said !
I sit and think, and wonder, too, sometime,
How it will seem, when in that happier clime, _
It never will ring out, like funeral chime
Over the dead !
No tears! No tears !
Will there o day come that I shall not weep ?
For I bedew my pillow in my sleep ;
Yes, yes, thank God! no grief that elime shall
keep—
No weary years.
Ay, it is well !
Well with my lambs, and with their earthly guide;
There, pleasant rivers wander they beside, |
Or strike sweet harps upon its pleasant tide—
Ay, it is well !
. Through the dreary day
They often come from glorious light to me :
I ecannot feel their touch, their faces see,
Yet my soul tells me they do come to me—
. Heaven is not far away !

please observe,” said old Mr. Lambwell, as
he led us through his school the other day,
“ that the boys are required to observe the
utmost attention to quietness as well as to
discipline.”
We had at this moment arrived in front
of several boys standing around a water
bucket, and one had just charged his mouth
with the contents of the cup, while the
old gentleman was stooping over to recov
er his pen from the floor, when another
passing along behind, snapped his thumb
qaite under the drinker’s ear, and caused
Lim on a sudden to eject the contents of
his mouth over the pedagogue’s bald pate.
Btanding upright, with his face and hair
dripping, the master shouted :
* Who did that ?”
‘The party unanimously cried out, “Jim
Gun, sir.”
“James Gun, what did you do that
for 77
Jim, appalled at the mischief he had
done, muttered that it was not his fanlt—
that Tom Owen snapped him.
This changed the direction of old Lamb
well’s wrath, and shaking his cane porten
tiously over Owen’s heag, he asked : .
“Did you snap Gun ?”
“The culprit, trembling with fear, mut
tered :
“Yes, sir, I snapped Gun, but I didn’t

THE SPIRITS IN THE WOODS.
_o_—.
BY A BACKWOODSMAN.
—o— ‘
The table moving was tried by all g}‘ac-’
ing our hands in a ring, upon atable. The
effect was almost instantly seen. Our
weight could not hold the table down to
the floor. Slowly it raised, but tipping a
lit‘le, wo fell headlong into the pancake
batter, the table and batter rising as we
went down. J. would have langhed at
our fall, had not H. trod heavily upon his
corns. Instead of langhing he looked like
cursing. H. was grave, and declared that
the spirits compelled him to step where he
did. It was evident that we had “got up
the Dutch” of our unseen visitors. Wish
ing to get at a good understanding with
them, we tproposed to learn, by rapping, a
variety of matters particularly interesting,
and at the same time test, by mental ques
tions and otherwise, their spiritual intelli
gence and veracity. Perhaps I cannot do
better than to give the questions and an
swers as they occurred.
“ Are the spirits present "
. “'They am, sir.”
“ How many of them?”
| “Mor'n you all can shake a stick at.”
! - % Are they good spirits 7”
| “ Fourth proof, and no mistake.”
| “From what sphere ?”
| “The top noch.”
1 oW they converse with us?”
i “Well they will, hosses.”
These replies were rapped out as we
‘ drew our fingers over the letters of the al.
phabet. Verbal questions were first asked
l by different members of the “ circle.”
i "% Will any spirit called for appear and
answer 7" <
“S.a-r-tain.”
“Is Cain present "
“ He happens to be.” |
“Was the club with which he slew Abel
hickory or white ash, and what did ke cut
it with 7 |
“Yes, twant either. It was a shoemake 1
ball-club, cut with a butcher-knife.”
This important question settled, Cain
stood aside, and Belshazzar was called.
“Do you remember the feast when the
handwriting appeared on the wall?”
“I make out to.”
“Were you—begging pardon, sir—un
der the influence of intoxicating liquors
| that evening "
| “Drunk, gentlemen, as a bil'd owl.”
' “Drink champagne or Monongahela?”
| “Neither. Owing to the scarcity of
| log-wood, we went in blackstrap and clear
{ rot-gut.”
“ Any of the women tipsy ?”
~ “They wan't nothing else, I reckn.
Mrs. Belshazzar was so limber-like that in
playing * snap-and-ketch-em,” she fell into
the oyster-kettle, and broke a turtle-shell
comb all to smash.”
“Was it fright that made your knees
smite together 7"
“No sir. I was so almighty tired 1
couldn’t keep ’em from smiting together,
nohow.”
“Was Cyrus one of the b’hoys ?”
“Well, no great scratch. He took the
advantage of us when we were on a bend
er. He was a cold water fanatic and an
enemy to the constitution.”
“ Are you in favor of the Maine Law ?”
* Not—by—a—jug—full.”
“Do you get ‘anything to take’ where
you are 7’
“Not a drop. I've got a thundering
hankering after a snifter.”
“ Help yourself to the cold water on the !
table, old boy.” '
“Go to the devil with your cold water.” l
“Is Balaam present ?” i
“ What do you want of Balaam ?” |
“ How old was that jackass of hism ?” |
“ He would have been four yearsold the |
next general training.”
“ Are there any jackasses in your sphere, |
Mr. Balaam ?” |
“No, you impudent puppies. The jack- ‘
asses are all on earth yet” - :
[This ill-natured insinuation was re- §
ceived with enthusiastic raps by the spir- |
its. I
1 ‘] Is the boss builder of the Tower of |
‘Babel present?” o |
“ He am.” |
“ Was the 'Tower built of brick or ]
stone ?” |
“ Brick.” t
“ How many thousand of brick was in ’
the concern ?”
“ An almighty heap of them, you'd bet
ter believe.”
“How much did they cost per thousand ?”
“Four dollars and a half at the kiln.” .
“ How many Irishmen did it take to car
ry mort ?” ’
“ Nine millions and rising.”
[“That’s a lie, I know, muttered H. A
smart rap on his sore shin under the table
made him aware that the foreman of Ba
t bel was around.] The enquiries were con- ‘
tinued. . :
“ Was there any confusion of language l
among the workmen ?” |
“ Considerable, I must admit—a perfect
hullabaloo.” |
“What did the king say when he ex
amined into the matter {”
“ Nz for stay "
i “One thing more Mr.—Mr.—What's
your name—" ‘
“ Smith, if you please.” |
“Well, Mr. Smith—one thing more:
Was it true that Nebuchadnezzar was
made to mix clay on the sweep ?”
“True, and a thundering good ox he was,
too. He ground all the clay for the Tow
er of Babel.”
! *“ Did he have brass knobs on his horns 7”
i “He hadn't horns—he was a mueley.”
i “Was he a—-" ' '
i “Go to thunder! I won't have any
thing more to say to youn.”
| “Was he a short-horned Durham or De
| von 1"
i [No answer. The foreman of the Tow
ier of Babel had evidently, believing him
' self quizzed, gone off in a “ huff.”]
| The circle continued its sitting, after H.
| had filled his pipe, and 1 had spent a few
moments in the open air.
Noah was now called and found to be
present.
- “Were you Commodore of that old
craft called the Ark?”
l “1 was.” ,

those days " -

“Who was pilot?” } - o
“ Christopher Columbus.”
% How many animals kad you on board
“ Several hundred.”
“Any Know Nothings among them ?”
“Not one. They were all drowned.”
“ Was it true that Belshazzar hailed you
on a life-preserver, and told you to go to
thunder with your old tub, and guessed
there wouldn't be much of a shower?”
“He did.”
“Why didn’t you take him in?”
“He was taken in a few minutes after
that—all over.”
“Had you any of Barnum’s fire annihi
lators on hoard ?”
~ “T'wo or three hundred of them to put
out the candles at night.”
“One more question, Commodore Noah.

“Some snipe hunter on Mt. Arrarat
shot it.”

are sometimes shot.” :
“ Was there any wharf at Mt. Arrarat "
“ Nothing but a white-oak snubbing-post
and Yankee grocery.”
“ Was the Yankee there himself 1"
“ Yes, sat on a herring-box, whittling.”

NOTICES OF THE PRESS.]
The Anglo-African Magazine is the title of n‘
new candidate for {»ub]ia favor, the first (January) ‘
number of which lies before us. Tt is published
in the interest of that elass of our fellow-citizens
who are disfranchised by the Dred Scott deecision,
and its contents, in their generality, epeak very
significantly of the injustice done them by the
c(?minions of some of the Judges of the Sn*yreme

ment of & mnguine condueted entirely by colored
Bersons. and devoted to the soeial, mol»‘af and po- |
itical advancement of their brethren,—lndepend

The Magazine is one of great ability, interest
and taste, and will bear a eumwrison with those
of mueh g:eater pretensions. We sincercly hope
the friends of the colored people wflmnizo
this work and help them in this honorable effort
‘to put themselves in a position which they de
gerve, and which their enemies would fain prevent
them from nttaining. “Blake ; or the %ufi of

The new year has thus far brought to our notice
nothing more gratifying and encouraging than this
new publication. 'lihe advent of & monthly mag
azine, devoted to Literature, Science, Statistics,
ete., is no new thing under the sun, and especially
not new in our country. The United States
abound in sueh publications ; but to our knowl
edge, nothing of the character of the magazine be
fore us, has ever been attempted by any member
or members of the colored race i the United
States. We have had numerous newspapers, a
good many pamphlets, a few unpretending poems,
a few biographical sketches, mostly narratives of
fugitive slaves, some written by themselves, others
only written at their dictation, the amanuensis fur
nishing the words, and the fugitives the facts; but
bevong these, nothing has been even attempted.
The Anglo-African is a bright new fact, nn& we
trust the beginning of an era in the mental, moral,
and religious history of the eolored people in this
Refinblic. Whatever may be the fate of this new
publication, in point of patronage, whether it
shall suceeed or fail, for want of su}i{)ort, we sin
cerely rejoice to see the attempt made, and made
8o well.
* * * * * * * -
The feature of the Magazine for the present
month is the essay of Dr. }3 M'Cune Smith,fshow
ing the dependence of Civilization on physieal i
circumstances. The subjeet is one of great inter
est, independent of its bearings upon relations ex
isting in this country. To those who know Dr.
Smith, it need not be said that his essayis a
learned and masterly one. But we will say this
and more, for it is an original and brilliant pro
duction—one which we would gladly see in the
hands of all the political and ethnological malign- |
ers of the coloreg races of men. Martin R. De%a- |
ny, it will be seen, has chosen a lofty subject. e
Las given a peeuliar theory, ascribing to electricity
the office of keeping the heavenly bodies in order,
which other very able men have ascribed to the
law of gravitation. Mr. DelanP' dismisses all our
fears that this firm old earth of ours is to be
smashed up one of these coming days by a colli
sion with any other body in space. We shall re
fer again to this new magazine, and meanwhile wish
} Mr. Thomas Hamilton, its enterprizing publisher,
every suceess in this praiseworthy effort to pro
‘mote literature and learning among our people.— |

past and present, and the future prospects, of the

much research and thought. * * * * * *
The Magazine commences its carcer with a modest

ANGLO-AFRICAN MAGAZINE.-—A new monthlfi in
the phlet form, issued at 43 Beekman-st., New
Yorm one dollar per annum, by our friend
‘Thomas Hamilton, promises good things, solid
things, noble, elevating. The first number exhibits
tact, talent, erudition, scientifie investigations, the
pen of a ready writer. The contributions are of
the highest order. The narratives, sufferings and
hair-breadth escapes of fugitives from the land of
Egypt and Pharaoh’s host, are trulg marvelous,
wunéerful ! No romanee can equal them, and yet
they are solid facts. These narratives will grace
every number of this new monthly, and will
doubtless give it a wide circulation. Anything
and everything caleulated to elevate and emanci
pate the colored race, meets our warmest sympa
thies. The band of God is in it. “ Ethiopia is soon
to stretch forth her hands to God.” Friends,
hand in your names, enclose $1 to Mr. Hamilton,
48 Beekman-st.—Golden Rule (New York.)
This is a new Magazine, but, as its name im
ports, it is to fill an existing void, and circulate in
a sphere peculiarly its own. It is to be the organ
of the colored race. It has been projected by col
ored men, and, in the main, will Ee condueted by
them. The initial number appears well. Its
leading articles are of a high orger, and give evi
dence that if ““ negroes have no rights which white
men are bound to resEect,” they at least wield
pens which, one day, shall work out the redemp
tion of their race, and extort from the proud and
domineering Anglo-Saxon the justice now so per
sistently denied them.
The opening article is an introductory one by
the Yublisher, Mr. Thomas Hamilton, who suc- |
cinetly states the objects he has in view, and the
work which he and his fellow-laborers undertake

The main article, ** Civilization—its Dependence
on Physical Circumstances,” is by Dr. James M’-
Cune Smith, a gentleman of ligeral education,
though for it he is not indebted to his own coun
try, having been obliged to obtain it in Europe,
where the tiger-ferociousness of caste of coloris un
known. It 1s an able Faper, and conclusively dis
| Erovos the current philosophy which predicates
“human advancement, or, in other words, eiviliza
tion, on the innate superiority of a race; but, on
the contrary, shows that it is due rather to eli
mate and geographical position. The paper is
learned, pregnant with facts, so skillfully handled,
that the defiuctions are beyond the possibility of
being overthrown. The doetrine of innate superi
ority of race is scattered to the winds. This cen
tury-nursed lie, which has been made the excuse
for slavery, with all its horrors and barbarities,
which to-day, in these nominally free States,
crushes the colored man beneath a remorseless
prejudice and a fiendish spirit of caste, command
ing him to quench the fires of aspiration as he
feels them burning in his soul, to be a hewer of
wood and drawer of water, a menial, feeling no
manhood, to keep shut the windows of his soul,
never opening them to let in the sun-light of
knowle(i)ge, is eviscerated, and shown to be but the
invention of the oppressor, as an excuse for his
dark and damning ({)eeds and crimes. When the
despised negro can ply such artillery as this, it is
time to pause, and ask what we are to gain by at
tempting longer to hold him down. The time is
approaching when the black race now in this
country will be a fearful power, unless we relax
the hand of oppression. They are under the tem
perate parallels, where all circumstances conspire
to give them physical and mental R:wer. In
eac%l decade, the census figures show that they in
crease in a ratio which, ere long, will reach that
{)oint when the red right hand of revolution will
»e raised, elenching a sword, beneath whose heavy
blade fetters will be but as flaxen strings, and op
pressors but as men of elay. The negro is natur
ally patient and docile—naturally he abhors blood
and strife ; but there are examples which emphat
ically warn us that, in the school of slavery, and
under the treatment he receives when he is lyookeJ
u})on as he is now, by a large portion of this peo
ple, he aptly learns the aphorism of Jefferson, and
which we profess to believe a God-ordained one—
“ Resistance to Tyrants is obedience to God ! St.
Domingo thunders in our ears, ‘ Beware! Take
your hands from your vietim's throat, or meet the
retributive justice ready to pour upon your heads
wrath more terrible than the seven wvials of the
Apocalypse !
Such are some of the thoughts which have sug
gested themselves while we have been writing this
notice. Others there are which come thronging
around our pen, but this is no time for their utter
ance. In conclusion, we would say, we are glad
this Magazine has been established. Conducted
as there is every reason to believe it will be, it
will demonstrate that Anglo-Africans stand on the
plane of progress, and are not those brutish beings
they have been represented to be. 1t is ealm and
dignified, manful in its tone, counselling the col
ored man to toil on and vindieate his race, by be
ing true to the instinets of his nature, notwith
standing the other races proudly affect superiori
ty, and look down with scorn and contempt.
The Magazine is published by Thomas Hamil
ton, at 48 Beckman street, New York, at %1 a
year. We mention the terms, because we hope
there will be many who will subscribe, if for no
other purpose, to see “what good can come out
of Narragansett.’— Pendulum (Greemwich, R. 1)

EXTRACTS FROM RECOMMENDATIONS AND NOTICTS,
From Hon. W. H. Seward.
DEAR Sir :—Just on the eve of my departure
from home, I received the volume which you had
sent me entitled the * Autobiography of a Fe
male Slave.”” I read it with fixed interest from
beginning to end, and 1 have met no recent pub
lication that has seemed to me so truthful, just
and benevolent, and so likely to touch the hearts
and consciences of men in regard to the practice
of slavery. Accept my thanks for it, with my
best wishes, less for the sake of the author or for
our own than for the sake of our country and of
Kumanity, that the book m?' obtain a free and
wide circulation. I am, &e., &e.
“ But here at last is a genuine, bona fide voice
from the South. Out of the very company of
the slaveholders themselves, bristling with ‘defi
ance of the world, comes this wail of mingled
pity and condemnation.”—Anti-Slavery Standard.

“This Etfle book contains & vast amount of in

of the Slayeholding and non-S vehddiu? States,
as to territory, population, industry, wealth, edu

FORTY YEARS IN SLAVERY.
THE KIDNAPPED AND THE RANSOMED ,
Being the personal recollections of Peter Still
ans his wife Vina, after forty
years in Slavery.
BY MRS. KATE E. R. PICKARD,
With'an introduetion by Rev. Samuel J. May, and
a Biogra&hical Sketeh of Seth Coneklin,
by William . Furness, D. D.
1 vol., 4 illustrations, 408 pp. 12me. Price $l,
, iostage paid.
Peter Still was kidnappped in early childhood
from the door-step of his home in New Jersey.
For more than forty years he was a slave in Ken
tucky and Alabama. At last he purchased his
frcogom by the slow accumulation of extra labor,
and returning to the region of his birth, found his
yet surviving mother and his numerous brothers
and sisters, living in and near Philadelphia. His
wife and three children, under the pilotage of Seth
Concklin, attempted to eseape, but were re-cap
tured at Vincennes, Indiana. Peter immedinte}v
set about collecting the means for their purchase.
The sum demanded for them was exorbitant—
ss,ooo—and would have discouraged almost any
other man than Peter Still. Vet the strong social
feeling and the energy of his race were strikingly
manigst in his untiring ?crseverance, which was
crowned with success, and Peter had the unspeak
able pleasure of bringing his houschold to a free
home, where they ean quietly enjoy their own
fireside, free from the master’s frown and the dri
ver's lash.
The writer of this narrative was a highly es
teemed teacher in the Female Seminary at fi'us
eumbia, Alabama, who had ever{ opportunity to
acquire Jwersonnl knowledge of al tl]:e prominent
facts and circumstances which she has narrated.
We can promise the lovers of exciting adventure
very much in this volume to gratify their taste,
and all those who really desire to fathom the
heights and degths of that iniquity which is
threatening the destruetion of our Republie, may
turn to it in the assurance that they will find in 1t
much valuable information, given with the striet
est regard to truth.
