or to whom, DEATH? What, all these
in a week? Yea, and a host, more
numerous than the sands of the sea.
Many who saw the dawhing Of the
present week will be in another world

week, find themselves at the close

HE JERSEY BoY.-Some years a.
go, there was 4 shoemaker boy in the
lower part of Cumberland county.
New Jersey, who was remarka.
bic for his love of reading. All his
leisure hours were employed with a
book, while his companions were pas
sing theirs in idleness, or worse than
Idleness-the celebration of Crispin-
mas. At length he took his stick
and bundle and started for the south
west. Time passed on, and the STU
dlous shoemaker continued his STUDIES
with undated zeal. His compan-
ions, intent upon their amusements,
had almost forgotten him; they con-
tinued their devotions TO their pat
on'saint for thel best part Of their
weeks. and applied the awl and the
thread for the balance, unhonored by
Others because unexpected by them
selves. And thus they will continue
to reap the bitter fruits of misspent
youth. until a welcome grave closes
over them, while the Jersey Boy,
their fellow apprentice, with the same
chances, but a higher aim, is one of
Mississippf's honorable representa-
tives,i in the most digniied Senate that

( new not that the world contained
A form SO lovely as thine own,
Nor deemed that where such beauty reign'd
Humanity would FIX her throne.
For l had marked, where eyes were bright,
Too well their owners knew their power,
And armed them with their dazzling light
The sun emits at noontide's hour.
Too proud to veil q single ray,
Or one effulgent glance surrender.
And glittering through the orb ofdsy,
And s%corning t~wiIight's softer splendor.
know not where the form displayed,
Such symmetry and grace as thine.
That intellect would lend its aid,
And sentiment there raise its shrine.
Fer I had marked where form and face,
Had beauty'svaried form combined,
There oft was wanting feelings force.
The beam of .oul-the ray Of mind.
And vain has been each studied art,
And futile every cold endeavor,
The light that comes not from the soul,
A moment shines, then fade. forever
But I at last have turned from these,
Whom once l knew, to gaze on thee,
On thee, whose cheeks divinest glow,
Reveals thy bosom's purity.
Thy summer sky is calm, serene.
The summer oceans wildly fair,
Asifsome bright, some heavenly scene,
In beauty were reelected there.
And thus, when on thy brow l gazed,
And view'd the light around it cleaning,
They seem'd TO be the living rays,
From heart, and soul, and split beaming,

SECRET OF MAKING SoAP.-Many
persons are much troubled to make
soap come, but there is 10 art and
mystery. or stuck" about the business.
The whole secret consists in having
strong lye-and it must be strong.
If the ashes are clean, the soap will
come without using lime. If the ash
es are made from dirty chips. or burnt
upon 4 clay hearth. lime the leach at
the rate Of one quart to a barrel Of
ashes, may used to great advantage.
If lime cannot be produced, boil The
I've down until there are coarse grains
Of salt in the bottom; then pour of
the I've and throw away the salts. It
will 'spoil your inct 10 attempt TO
make soap with salt in the kittle, for
it is the salt of earth, not ashes. If
your lye is strong, and YOU put in as
much grease as it will dissolve. you
will have soap, whether it is hot or
rold.-CYliir ifOr.

sound of the drum and trumpet-no
Hastings of splendid uniforms-no
cleaning Of sun brightly FURNISHED
arms, to excite the imagination, and
drown any longings for a more peace
fuI scene. No--there was nothing
of all this, but only the fearful whist
ling of the deadly bullet, from a chas-
ed foe. Yet did the devoted troops
move steady on-and finally charg-
ed the hammock, and put the enemy
to rout.
The destruction Of life in this action
was, if my memory does not deceiv-
me greater, in proportion to the num-
Der engaged, than in any of Napo-
Icons battles, and so far as determin-
ed, undaunted courage is concerned,
it was exhibited at Withlacoochee
and Okechobee, in as high 4 degree
as it was every displayed by any
troops in the world. Yet because
the results were not as great rs
expected-because no kingdom was
won or lost, but the struggle was
only with poor Indians--the courage
and devotion of our officers and men
is forgotten in the clamorfr theer<sa-
of the war: or still worse, in the op-
portunity afforded for "a fling at this
or that admission. because it did
not work impossibilities. and not
only carry on a war without expense.
but close it without being able to
find out the enemy Of whom the
troops were in painful search. Let
us learn to do our little army more
Justice, and whatever may be the
political sins of the administration.
which for the time being controls its
movements, let us remember that the
army have nothing 10 do with them.
No nation on earth has better mater
ial for rank and file than the United
States. and no army has n more &C.
compIished, skilIful and truly cou
courageous set of officers than has
