Perseverance and Triumph.

Some years ago, there was a shoemaker boy
in the lower part Of Cumberland county, New
Jersey, who was remarkable for his love Of
reading. All his leisure hours were employed
with book, while his companions were pass
ing theirs in idleness, or worse than idleness
the celebration of Crispinmas. At length he
took his stick and bundle and started for the
southwest Time passed on, and the studious
shoemaker continued his studies with unabaied
zeal. His companions, intent upon their
amusements, had almost forgotten him; they
continued their devo.ions to their patron saint
for the best part of their weeks, and piled the
awl and thread for the balance, unhonored by
others because unrespected by themselves
And thus they will continue TO reap the bitter
fruits of misspent youth, until q welcome grave
closes over them, while JOHN HENDERSON,
their fellow apprentice, with The same chances,
but higher aim, is one of Mississippis hon
orable representatives in the most dignifed
Senate that ever deliberated.

Bridge of Ice at Niagara Falls.

The river below the great cataract presents
al this time most singular phenomenon, being
completely bridged over from the foot of Table
Rock TO distance Of mile and.and half, by
an arch Of impacted ice, Of immense thickness,
which has been crossed daily by travellers and
visitors for week past, in perfect safety. The
ice, broken into very fine pieces in It's passage
over the Falls, has risen up below in such
quantities and with such force, that the mass
has been elevated no less than thirty-fve feet
above the summer level Of the river, and frozen
soIidy together by the showering spray, pre-
senis firm mass with occasional assures
several fee, In width and of great depth. So
permanent seems this wonderful barrier of ma
ture, that small building has been erected on
j, and occupied as grocery store.-Bufalo

A Lion Frightened.

It is related in Sir j. Alexander's Southern
Africa, in describing his adventures among the
Boschmans, that short time previous TO his
arrival among this tribe, young Boschman, IN
hunting a troop of zebras, had just succeeded
in wounding one of them with All arrow, when
lion sprang out of an opposite thicket, and
showed decided inclination TO dispute the
prize. -
The Boschman luckily being near tree,
dropped his arms, and climbed for safety with
out a moments delay to an upper branch. The
lion having allowed the wounded zebra to pass
on. now turned his whole attention towards the
perching huntsman, and walking round and
round the free, he now and then growled, and
looked up at him rather unpleasantly. AT
length the lion lay down at the foot OF the tree,
and kept watch all night.
Towards morning, sleep over came the hlih-
erto wakeful Boschman, and he dreamed that
he had fallen into the lions mouth. Starting
from the effects Of his dream, he lost his seat,
and tumbling from the high branch on which
he had been reposing, came squash down upon
the lions ribs The monster not being al all
prepared for an assault Of this description, bolt
ed off with tremendous roar, and the Bosch
man lost no time in taking to his heels in an
opposite direction, scarcely believing the evl-
dence of his senses--Hartord COurant.

Ti,e Santa Fe Expedition.

Franklin Combs, one of the Expedition,
liberated by the orders Of Santa Anna, has ar
rived at New Orleans. His narrative, as pub
lished in the Crescent City, is full of interest,
and the treatment experienced by those who
are made prisoners by the Mexicans, is des-
cribed as being of most outrageous nature
He says they were bound "six and eight to-
eether," with thongs Of raw hide and IN this
manner forced to travel to Mexico, distance
of 1000 miles. They experienced every, ,se~~
cies of iIl-,reatment, were robbed ss nelr shoes,
blankets, coats and hats, and denied the me-
cessary quantity of food and water The
weather was cold and they came near perish
ing in their nakedness. MIR. Ellis, the Ameri-
can Minister, called several times upon Santa
Anna, but was denied an audience. The
whole description is narrowing in the extreme,
and we debut not Mr. Kendall, of the Plea
yune, should he be fortunate enough to regain
his liberty, will give graphic account IN the
columns of his paper-I6.

worthy mechanic, Of Salem, Mass. who
from the force Of his own convictions, dlscOn
tinued the use ofnoxicating drinks year ago,
celebrated the anniversary of his freedom from

evening last week, to partake Of a clam chow

and took out drawer of money. He showed
his guests that there were more than hundred
dollars in the drawer, and informed them that
those were the savings of his "grog money" for
the year. Every day he had deposited in the
drawer the sum he would previously have spent
for liquor, and this was the result! Here was,
absolutely, the foundation of fortune Thmk
of it, young men, and remember that the regu-
lar saving of this sum, with its lawful interest,
would insure handsome independence, IN old
age, for any of you.-Daily Chronicle

Madeira Tea.

We learn from Hunts Merchants Magazine
the February number of which, by-the-by, is
one of the most interesting and instructive we
have yet perused-.hat the tea plant is success
fully cultivated in large scale in the island of
Madeira, at an elevation of 5000 feet above the
sea, BY Mr.. Henry Veitch, British Ex-Consul.
The quality of the leaf is excellent the whole
theory of curing II is merely To destroy the
herbaceous taste, the leaves being perfect,
when, like hay they emit an agreeable odour.
But TO roll up each leaf, as in China, is found
too expensive, although boys and gi,ls are en-
ployed at an expense of five cents per day
This difficulty is represented as an insupsra-
BILE obstacle to the successful competition OF tho
new tea plantation in Assam, British India
with the still cheaper labour of China. The
enlerprislng ex-consul is now engaged IN com
pressing the tea-leaves into small cakes, which
can be done at trihing expense, so as TO en-
able him 10 export 10 England immense quantl-
ties, at lower prices than would import 1t from
China. Compression would have one impor-
tant advantage over rolling the leaves. 1t is
performed when the leaf is dry whereas the
rolling requires moisture, and subsequent roast
ing on copper plates is necessary to prevent
mustiness. In this process, the acid oil tea
acts upon the copper, and causes the astrln
gency which we remark in all China teas
The olean fragrans, the flower of which is usec
to scent the teas especially the black, grows
luxuriantly in Observation-Disclosures Herald

Correct Idea.

An editors sanctum should be sacred. His
papers should not be touched till after he has
cleaned their contents to his satisfaction. Take
up his small and leave first this paper in folio
that in quarto, t'oher crumpled up, and the
whole in confusion, and though his bump of or
der be as large as piece Of chalk, he can
never arrange. them satisfactorily. His ideas
will become deranged and out of sorts, just from
gazing on the disordered pile before him, and
lis paragraphs Jagged and uneven as saw teeth;
Let our papers alone, and how smoothly we'll
wade through them! No time is lost in look
ing for an estray The sought for is full be-
fore our eyes--clpped out, and neatly folded
sheet placed aside as "a thing Of yesterday"

Sir 0iues Served the scamp right. What
business had he TO monopolze six wives, when
many poor fellow is doomed to linger out

The Advantage of Advertising.

The editor of the wheeling Times speaks OF
merchant who undertook TO expend his first
years profit in advertising After trying four
months, he found his profits so great .ha, he
could not find enough papers 10 advertise IN,
and had 10 give il up; but continued TO adver-
tise in every paper in his region, until IN SIX
years he quilted business with half million o
ready cash.

4 Dreadful Affair--WuFtier IL, the
Halls of Legislation.

The intelligence of the death Of the Hon.
Charles G. P. Arndt, a member of the Conuct
from Green Bay, in the Legislature Of Wis.,
consin is one Of those events that calls for
public Indignation from all parts Of The country.
1t is one more of the ten thousand reasons
why private citizens should not be permitted TO
wear fire arms. The country has lost in Mr..
Arndt mos, amable and interesting cltizen--
one who, by his fine talents, made himself he
favourite OF his constituents. We had the plea
sure of meeting MIR. Arndt in this city about
year ago, on his way from Washington 10 his
residence in the West. His father, Judge
Arndt, left Pennsylvania number of years
siDce, and settled at Green Bay The deceas-
ed, We think, was also born in this State, and
was decSedly one of the ablest men in the Ter
ritory-Pd. Inquirer
Horribly Tradgedy.
BY slip from he Southport Telegraph;
Wisconsin, we learn tha, the Hon. Charles c.
p. Arndt, member of the G>uncil from Brown
county, was shot dead on the fie,r Of the Coun
ell chamber, by James Il. FiReya,a. member
from Grant county. The affair grew,aut of
nomination for Sheriff of Grant county Mr.
E. S. Baker was nominated, and supported b.
Mr. Arndt. This nomination was opposed by
Vineyard, who wanted the appointment to vest
in his own brother In the course of debate.
the deceased made some statements which
Vineyard pronounced false, and made use OF
violent and insulting language, dealing largely
in personalities, 10 which Mr.. A. made no
reply. After the adjournment, Mr.. A. stepped
up to Vineyard and requested him to reract,
which he refused TO do, repeatHgthe of1enlve
words Mr. Arndf then made blow al Vine
yard, who stepped back pace, drew pistol,
and shot him dead
The issue appears to have been provoked on
the part of Vineyard, who was determined at all
hazards to defeat the appointment Of Baker,
and who, himself defeated, Iurnedh his ire and re-
venged upon the unfortunate ArRdt.

A Feat Indeed.

The Rutland, Vermont, Herald says:-"Mr.
Truman Kilbnrn, of Middletown, while cutting
hole in the ice on Wells Pond, dropped his
axe through the hole where the water was
l6 I-2 feet deep. He threw off his clothes.
dove through the hole where he lost his axe.

Where shall the beautiful rest!-VILLEGAs
BEAUTIFUL! where, oh where would ye sleep,
When winter howleth around

When the frost shall chain the groundl
Beautiful! where, oh where would ye sleep,
When summer has faded away,
And the sickle of autumn the flowers shall reap,
From the graves of the fair and gay1
Beautiful where, oh! where would ye sleep,
Ifnot in summer or spring!
All me who shall then your vigils keep,
When no birds are left to singl
Beautiful where, oh where would We sleep,
By the soft meandering wave1
When willows the dewdrops tenderly weep
Ger your premature, desolate grave!
1t matters not where, the beautiful sleep,
Or if simmer shine brightly above,
Or the bleak winds of winter rudeiv sweep
Ger the graves of those we still love
1t matters not where, the beautiful sleep,
If they do but 'die in the trust,'
For their memries kind love a record will keep,
When their forms have crumbled to Dust
Oh! bury them there-or in valley, or waye,-
Or on lofty mountains steep;
For angels oflight ever watch the grave
Where the loved-the beautiful sleep!
