IMPROMPTU.

On the denomination Of Martin Van Buren,
for the Presidency By Thomas Hart Benton
When pumpkins shall grow on the top of
steeple,
And showers of pancakes shall fall like the
rain;
When Brownson and Bancroft can humbug
the people,
Van Buren, can come back to power again.
When grindstones shall turn themselves round
on a spindle
And John Bull shall swallow third part of
Name
When Grahsmites fatten and beef eaters
dwindle,
Van Buren, may come back to power again.
When mint drops shall flow upthe broad Mis-
sissipp,
And Amos no longer shall scribble for gain
When Richie refuses to scold like Zantippe
Van Buren, may come back to power again
When camels shall creep through the eye of !;
needle,
And ounces confess themselves minus il
brain;
| When rogues cannot cheat us nor parasite
wheedle-
Van Buren, may come into power again.

MOURN NOT THE DEAD
By ELIZA COOK.

by ELIZA COOK.
Mourn not the dead--shed not tear
Above the moss stained sculptured stone,
But weep for those whose living woes
Still yield the bitter, rending groan.
Grieve not to.see the eyelids close
That pray for night, yet fear to sleep,
Lest wilder sader visions rise
Than those 0 er which they waking weep.
Mourn not the dead'tis they alone
Who are the peaceful and the free;
The. purest olive branch is known
To Irvine about the cypress tree.
Crime, pride, and passion hold no more
The willing or the struggling slave;
The throbing pangs of love are Ger,
And hatred dwells not in the grave.
The world may pour its yenomed blame,
And fiercely spun theshroud wrap'd bier
Some few may call upon the uame,
And sigh to meet "dull, cold ear
But vain the scorn that would offend,
In vain the lips that would .beguile;
The coolest foe, the warmest friend.
Aremock'd by'Death's ..unchanging smile.
The only watchword that can tel
Of peace and freedom won by all,
Is echoed by the tolling bell,
And traced upon the sable pail.

His funeral was attended by all the public

weeks. After the funeral service the Co.

ENERGY OF CHARAcTER.-Energy of
character is the philosophers stone of this
life, and should be engraved upon every
heart it is that which has peopled the
temple of fame, that which filed the his
toric world that which has brought
race from barbarism, drawn the veil from
science, and developed the wondrous pow
ers of nature, it makes men great and
makes men rich. First or last it brings
success. Without it Webster would have
been new Hampshire lawyer, Thomas
Ewing buck eye salt boiler, Franklin
journeyman printer. Without it Demos
themes would have stammered on to the
grave, and Cincinnatus die6 common
soldier; Shakespeare would have been shot
for poachrng, Pope died selling tape, Ros-
coe lived selling beer,and Napoleon gone
out Of the world Corsican bully. With
it each one has not only done much for
his day and generation, but much for the
world IN the past, the present and the fu-
ture.
Energy of character will do the same
SAAA1S III Oil uioil III StiiuIt way tAiot II
has done for these. Give the'lawyer en-
ergy Of character, and he will succeed al
the bar without talent. 1t is the secret by
which the MERCHANT, the artist, the scholar
and mechanic arrive at distinction and
wealth. Ifthey fall once. they try again;
no contrary winds beat them down, or il
down, they will not stay down. The mar
who has energy of character will rise il
spite of fortune and in spit opposition
Give man energy and b made man
put him where you will. i is this fac
that gives US confidence that the Ameri
can people will rise from their present de
pressions as soon as the blast has blown
over that threw them down. In defiance
Of bank suspension, bad currency, ant
every other evil that malice and ignoranc
can fix upon them,the people Of this coun
try have energy enough TO rise and pros

Not when the storm-tiend's rage is stirred
But when tits silent as the grave,
Then is the music heard
Then wildly, sweetly from the lake,

The war-song of the Indian brave
Comes from his deep and watery grave,
And floats upon the silver wave
