The LATE ACCIDENT TO PRINCE ALBERT
When Prince Albert broke through the ice on
the lake in the gardens OF Buckingham Palace, one
day last week, his royal highness's situation was
far more perilous than the public were led to inn
agine; and, had not her majesty and the Hon.
Miss Murray been fortunately close to the spot at
the time, there is very little doubt that the result
would have proved fatal to the prince. The wa
ter where the ice broke was upwards of seven
feet in depth, although close to the shore; and
the sides of the bank afforded him no footing
to enable him TO extricate himself without assist
ance. Theprince was in the water for upwards
Of three minutes, and went twice under before he
could grasp the hand of her majesty.--Morning

We know of no other journal in the United States
that has done more in bringing about the glorious Po-
Ii ic revolution that has just taken place in TINS re-
public, than the conducted by Mr.. Thomas Allen,
aud it should be well supported
From the KnOrDiLIs Tsnn.) Times
The MADsoNIAN.--We greet with pleasure the
return OF this valuable journal TO table. IL comes
TO in and improved Dress and gives good as
sulance that il will do battle manally ever IN the
cause OF suffering and oppressed country The en-
terprising proprietor, Thomas Allen, Esq, suffered
very considerably by the burning OF his printing mate
as and well deserves renewed and increased patron
age from the public.
From The Toledo o. Blade
We cannot too strongly recommend to the friends
Of Government reform and better times this valuable
publication.

THE MADIsoNIAN.-We congratulate the Wings
and the country the temperance of the Madiso-
nian Il has risen from its ashes with renewed vlgor.
From the Western ~. W STATE Journal
THE MADIsoNIAN is one of the most spirited, able
and efficient papers opposed to the Federal Admins
traton in the Union. The editor holds vigorous
and manly pen Situated at the capitol, where the
numberess corrupt acts OF the government pass under
his constant review he is enabled to render good ser
vice to the great of the People and he discharges
the duty thus devJved upon him with zeal, fidelity
and effect worthy of the highest praise
We understand that the circulation of the Madlso-
Man has been greatly augmented 1t certainly de-
serves liberal support.
From The Cincinnati Republican.

and valuable paper has been resumed.
From the New Orleans True American.
The MADIsoNIAN comes to us once more full OF
good ammunition for demoishng the forts of the peo-
PIES enemy.
From The Mobile (AIa.) Advertiser.
MADIsoNIAN.-There is no form in which correct
political information be cheaply disseminated,
as by free circulation Of this excellent Journal and it
should be the duty of every Wing in the State to aid
in his own person in this work.
From the Seneca M W County Courier Of March
IL, 1871.
First in hand if not first in point of merit of all our
exchange papers is the MADIsoNIAN, Thomas Allen,
editor published in the city of Washington This we
consider one of the ablest papers in the Union. II
has been an eloquent and efficient advocate of Demo
cratic Wing principles, and receives an extended pa
ronage from all parts ofthe Union. All its editorial
articles are written with ability, and throughout the
late canvass have been freely copied into the Wing
papers Having long served the people In adversely,
it will lose of its efficiency in the times of pros
perity.

Ehonl ths CArislian Journak


The Father to his MOtherless Children
Come gather closer by my side,
My little smitten flock
And will tell Of him who brought
Pure water from the Rock
Who boldly led Gods people forth
From Egypt's wrath and guile
And once cradled babe did float
All helpless on the Nile.
You're weary, precious ones, your eyes
Are wandering far and wide,-
Think We of her who knew so well
Your tender thoughts to guide
Who could To VISIONS sacred lore
Your fixed attention claim
Oh, never from your hearts erase
That blessed mothers name.
IT'S time TO sing your evening hymn
My youngest infant dove;
Come press thy velvet cheek to mine
And learn the lay of love.
My sheltering arms can clasp you all
My poor deserted throng;
Cling as you used to cling to her,
Who sings the Angel'ssong
Begin, sweet birds, the accustomed strain
Come, MARBLE loud and clear
Alas alas you're weeping all
You're sobbing in my ear
Good night-go say the prayer she taught
Beside your little bed;
The lips that used to bless you there
Are silent with the dead
A Fathers hand your course may guide
Amid the thorns of life
His care protect these shrinking plants
That dread the storms of strife;
But who upon your infant hearts
Shall like that mother write2
Who touch the springs that rule the soul
Dear mourning babes, good night
