SORROW.

SORROW.
ny CATHERINE n. wArERMAs.
There's sigh thai tells of sorrow,
Tho the lip and eye be gay,
For the heart sees not TO morrow
Thro' the darkness Of to-day
Ifye wound tender flower,
That but lives In love aud light,
Can ye fnd the amer power
That may chase away its blight
No, when loves young hours have faded,
As the howret bucs depart
IT'S q sunny pathway shaded
To the temple Of the heart
Aud yet shadows on u linger,
That but whisper OF the pasf,
And still point with unseen finger,
10 bright Joys that could not iast.
IT'S for this the silent sadness
Steals the roses from the cheek,
It's Ior this the lip OF giadness
Lacks the power oijoy 20 speak.
Tho the smiles of life be round Us,
There's a chain upon The heart,
Whose clankless letters ever wound rs,
Which we cannot rehd apart.
Mid the lighted halls Of pleasure,
rhro' Its feans wiId aud high,
Like fond music's dy ing measure,
<Ne may hear that heaTPs lo..e sigh'
Ye may list IL AT the altar,
Where have met the plighted twsin,
For one wounded heari may fsltei,
'Mong the happy bridal train
When all else IL still and lonely,
And The calm of thought IL by,
We may mark THAT stiffness, only
Broken by one gentle sigh.
It's a sigh that tells of sorrow,
Tho the lip aud eye be gay,
For the heart sees not to-morrow,
Thro' the darLaess Of to-day.

Where is that holy band,
Who stood IN fearless, FIRM array,
Through all the long and stormy day
Ofwar and blood--the hope and stay
Of our beloved land
Who nobly in her darkest hour,
Sustaind the parrots psrt
Led onward by that soul sublime,
The "mastcr spirit" Of our time,
Whose fame shall live in every cline
Where breathes the ifeeborn heart.
Oh where are they who priced their rights,
Above tins fleeing breath--
Indignant spurn'd u tyrant's sway,
And woke the dawn Of freedoms day
Their waichwori through the dreadful fray
Stiil "Literty or Death :"
All few among that gallant band
Are left us the earth,
Hut though our patriot sircs depart,
Coluinbia's sons in hand aud heart,
When called TO act the patriots part,
Wall never shame their birth.
And as revolving ages find
Our country great and free,
Long as her sunbright mountains stand,
Though all her fair aud happy land,
Tho memory of that honored band
beacon light shall be.

TO PARENTS.

The right education ofyour children is dearer
TO you than any other earthly object fora good
education is young mans best capital. To
educate your children well, is to give them a
fair start in the world--t is to give them an
equal chance for the privileges and honors of
manhood.
But, TO keep them from school the most Of
the tme--to furnish them with miserable,
useless teacher-to deny them the nccesSary and
most approved school hooks-to be unwilling TO
spend little TO procure Papers and books for
general information and reading--to do these
things, either one of these, is TO do your chill
dren an incalculable injury.
You wish your children he companions Of
the vrtuous and the intelligent---lheu make
them virtuous and intelligent; unless you do this
your children will be unfit for such society as
you wish them to keep. Yon wish your off:
spring respected and nfuential-morality and
intellect are always respected, and these qualities
are always influential, too. You do not wish
Others to trample upon the rights of your chill
dren--vou do not wish others to lead them, TO
think for them, or to make them mere tools for
ambitious ends. Then give them an education
"a mind, that they may know and keep their
right--that they may think for themselves, and
have tie privileges of FREEMEN. Ignorance is
always the vassa, The slave ofintelgence. The
educated man always has had, and always will
have, the advantage OF ignorance; and if you let
your children grow up uneducated, yon let them
grow up to he the tools and the slaves of others.
You cannot do your children greater injury
than 20 let them step into manhood uneducateG;
and in no other way can you do these free in.
situations greater evil.
You ought to put into your chdrens bands
every thing that assists or encourages them IN
their studies. Do not hesitate at the expense.
II you can strengthen one moral feeling, or one
intellectual faculty in your child, you are well
paid for almost amy expense. Wealth will not
make your offsprin great or happy-haPpiness
and greatness consists in virtue and knowledge.
Let the edncution of your children, then, be your
first care.

Extraordinary Preservation Of a Human Body.
On the 5Ih June, 1882, Capt. Mead, and
his c Jerk, of the Steam boat Homer, both died
of Cholera, and were buried side by side in
Louisiana fifteen miles below Natchez. BY the
caving in of the bank of the river i'll February
1886, three years and eight months afterwards,
the collins became exposed and the gentleman
who owned the plantation had them removed
hack out OF the way of the river. The very
great disparity in the weight of the collins sug-
gested the curiosity of opening them. The
one known to contain the body of the clerk, by
its being smaller than the other, was found to
contain little else than the bones, the grave
clothes &c. being in state of most perfect de-
cay. But the body of Capt. Mead was found 10
be in every respect as full, sound and undecay-
ed as when he was buried. 1t had every APP
pearance, as we'll to the eye as by handling the
limbs, of body recently deceased. The gave
clothes, winding sheet, &c. were also rs sound
as they ever were. His coffin was of cypress
plank, such as is generally used and both bodies
were inferred about three feet below the surface.
The circumstance is unaccounted for by our
informant, but no fact can be better authentic
ated than this is, in every particular as we have
stated it.-.Vatchez Courier.

penses, of the NAVY Board, hear $50

The committee also condemn the
practice of extra clerk hire. We find
Mr.. DIckerson not only employing
three extra clerks, but what is far more
dangerous, paying extra hire to one OF
the regular clerks in the department,
enjoying, at the time, n salary of j..
76O dolls, but to whom is paid " for
