The Lgnited HOrse.-The actors in the
recent cruel exploit Of setting fire to horse
at Cambridge, with spirit gas, had 10 pony
up TO the tune of cool hundred and trim
mings. Something like a joke did grow
out of the barbarous transaction. The burn-
ing harness emitted bright white flame.
and an old lady, who had seen some notices
of the painting of "Death on the Pale
Horse" exclaimed, on seeing the frantic
horse dashing along in silver light--"Mer-
CIV on me! if there aint the Pale Horse they
have been showing in Boston. He has
broke out of his stable, and is running to
Yves; Cambridge, like all natur,"

HONESTY.


The bright jewel in the diadem of honor
is honesty. 1t is fortune 10 poverty itself
lit is the safeguard Of society, and the best
Recommendation to the man of business
The responsible stations into which many
are placed; are secured only by their integ-
rity and honesty. There is scarcely any
situation in life which does not afford op-
porlunities for violating this most important
principle. The temptations Of the world
are aIluring; and withou! stern integrity on
the part of those exposed to them, they may
be induced to overstep the bounds of rectl-
tude. The clerk, in the counting-room,
may, if so disposed, cheat his employer ont
of hundreds. The salesman has the same
opportunities. Indeed, there lis no sphere
of.life in which imposition oil this kind may
not be practsed. Then, how important is
it to all, and especially to young men who
are dependent upon their own personal ex-
ertions for suslenance, to secure the conf
dence Of others and above all things, estab
lish themselves in the character Of homes
.ty? Poverty is no disgrace, nor do we be-
lieve i; a msforIune--it is an incentive TO
action. When coupled with honesty and
perseverance, it is destined to rise i'll the
scale Of prosperity, just as sure as the gol-
den sun will rise in the eastern horizon af-
ter having sunk in the purple west. The
Young man has been thrown into the world,
homeless and friendless, has nothing TO fear
if he establishes for himself the character
OF honesty; while on the other hand, if he
does not, he has no guarantee from the loaih-
some dungeon or the Jail, the penitenlary
or the aims house. Go where he may his
good or bad deeds will follow him. II he
take with him his good ones, as virture ac'
cords in unison with virtue, his prosperity
is secure-if his evil ones. as vice and mis-
cry equally unite, his downfall is certain
Every days observation brings proof OF
the above fact. How often do we see the
Young man who lays the foundation of his
life upon the rrevocabe principles of hon
esly, rise like the Phoenix flom its ashes,
and live, enjoying the full confidence of tie
world, famed by the saubrous and gentle
breeze Of happiness HE is taken by the
hand, and nurlured in the affection and
good will of others-his services are held
as a treasure--his superioIs, in a pecuniary
point Of view, for whom he labors and up
on whom is his dependence, value him So
highly that they even subject themselves tC
his judgment, keep watchful eye to hi:
interests, dread giving him offence, and. tt
crown The whole. he is frequently made CO.
partner in business. This is a strong ncen
tive to young men to be honest. The prin
eiple is true and immutable, carrying viii
il the combined evidence OF past expert
enee and the soundest doctrines of mos
philosophy.

OF using books is to serve them as some d.

AN OPPesTIoN LIHE IN RsLI0IoH.-Ihe ouia-
ing and dedication of the Church the Messiah"
and the great scat attendant thereon, seem to have
given entirely impetus to religion IN fashion
able life. On Thursday last, the new and fashion
able Dutch Church, recently erected in Lafayette
Place, was dedicated to divine worship The Dutch
do things slew, but they do them sure. They have
only been two years and half erecting this build
ing and il will take them six months more to finish
the steepls. But when the work is done, it will be
done most thoroughly. The Rev. DIR. Brownlee
broke ground in the pulpit last Sunday, red hot
against the Unitarians. His subject was " The Di-
vinity Of the Messiah in opposition to the doctrines
by Dewey at "The Church Of the Messiah. -
The Doctor had good bulldog grip at the Pope
some time back, and he shook him most savage
ly. He has now left the Pope and taken hold
OF Dewey, and we shosld not be surprised to see
a regular bull dog and mastif fight. The Doctor
is evidently determined not to be driven off the
road without using his whip; and he has therefore
started pitch and birthstone line of religious
stages to carry sinners along the straight and
road, which leadeth to happiness. 1t is well for the
sale Of the pews in Dewey's Church, that the Doc
tor did not preach before the sale; he would have
knocked down the stock, he intends to knock
down the Pope, the Devil and all his works, before

DEATH Dr. LoRISG.-Amongst the many ex-
cellent officers which the Florida war has sacrificed
few will be more deeply regretted than DR.. John
Loring II is but few months since in this city, we
stood by his side at the altar whilst he received the
hand of the fair and talented Miss Clark, Of Spring
street, from her father. He was then in the full
vgor of health and twenty five years of age

Pect of long life Of felicity, and
gall went merry a marriage bell"
DR.. Loring had been in the army Of Texas-at San
Jacnto, and through all the subsequent trials and
privatons suffered by the soldiers there, and had at
last placed his hand on the cap Of felicity. He en-
tered the army Of the United States, and sailed for
his station in Florida, after his marriage
He weathered cut very severe winter campaign,
but finally sunk under the hardships and privations
he endured therein. We admired him as a comrade,
and loved him friend, and tolhis memory we pay
this tribute:

Friend of our better days;
None knew thee but 10 love thee,
None named thee but to praise.n

rs CELEBRATED STATUE OF rNsLAND's QUEEN
BY an English Trareller.
That face I've often stem,
Half dmpled into smiles;
IT'S our own--our virgin Queen,
Victoria OF the isles,
In all her regal beauty rife,
Here we have her to the life.
Mild majesty and grace,
Sylph-iike loveliness is here;
In those glorious features trace
All Engand's homes hold dear,
From high to humble spot,
From banner'd hall to cot.
A wreath fer the artists brow,
A laurel thickly Irvine;
America is rising NOW,
And English hands will bind
A fresh full coronal for him,
Whose name will ne'er be dim.
Thou st done a mighty act,
Thy country must be proud
Thou shouldst be strongly backed
By generous, gallant crowd
OF native spirits, to unite
And lift thee into light.
Fen in the morn Of thought,
The lights Of genius flare,
The brain is over-wrought
BY struggles with despair;
He who charms a nations eyes,
OF meets neglect and dies.
