Who are the brave !-not they who stand
Really to rush with sanguine band,
]. Their vengeful ire in blood 10 wrcak
On the deienccless and the weak. ID
Who, eirt with regal power and might,
Remorselcssly wngc impious fight;
And, mid the pomp Of wars array,
Spread wide their devastating sway
Who DER dominion, far and near,
Established one dark reign Of fear,
And tramplc down, with iron heel,
On others rights and others veal
Not they whose sterile hearts can find
No sympathy Of human kind;
Who cannot, in one large embrace,
AS brethren clasp the human race.
Nay, Despot! at thy dreaded power.
Tho awess.ruck mulitudes may COVER
Yet, cen the veriest trembling slave,
May have soul than thine more brave;
For valor docs not deign 10 dwell
Within bosom cold and fell. f---
Who are the brave they are who dare
The majesty of Truth declare,
While EaRon, boldly they assail,
And never in the contest quail;
But stern, inAexible and strong
In righteous faith, oppose the wrong:
Whosc noble spirits proudly scorn
The chains Ivy AFFECT creatures worn;
Who so TYRANr !oathc, his look
They scarce can even tamely brook;
And more abhor the very name
TAan burning words can well proclaim
Heroes, who, with unAnching eye,
The threats oftyranny defy;
Who, resolute, undaunted, bold,
In freedoms cause, mans rights uphold
With force no earthly power can bind
The potent influence Of MIND.

A WORD TO THE WISE.

Every eector of the State of Connecticut should
bear in mind the following truths:-
lst. Either Roger S. Baldwin or Chauncy F. Cleve-
land will be elected Governor of this State by the
people on the Sd day of April, or BY the Legislature
in May-therefore every man who votes for any
ohe- person for this office, has no voice whatever in
the election:
I'd; Either the Wing or the Loco Foco candidates
for Congress will be elected by the people On the 81
day Of April This excep. in the event of tie is
as certain as that the sun will rise that day be-
cause by our laws plurality elects for this Office
the man who receives more votes than any other
one, is elected. ANY man therefore who votes for
any other than the wing or the loco foco candi-
date takes no part in the election-his vote counts
nothing.
Sd In each Senatorial District, either the whig or
the loco foco candidate will certainly he elected
because a Senator, like u member OF Congress. is
elected by plurality so that any man who votes
for third person voluntary valves his right 10 a
voice in the election.
Fellow citizens think upon these things and gov
ern Yourselves accordingly. A word to the wise is
decentralization
One Of the FIRST Official duties performed by Mr..
Joseph PT0H the new Tyler Postmaster at Hartford,
was to attend The great Tyler Meeting in New York

in my opinion, be-indebted TO the persever-
ing efforts of abolitionists to an extent that
will entite them to its lasting gratitude.
Let abolitionistS then, not relax their et-
forts to produce correct public opinion on
this subjcct-to wake up, thoroughly, the
free States to conviction that they have
something to do with slavery as it
clearly is, not only TO human rights, but to
the peace of the country and to the perma-
nencv of the Union.

Now what beautiful specimen is the above of To-

hled with abuse of the Wings, in the summer of lS4l
and just previous to the election of 1872 for supplying
themselves, in the legislature, with necessary articles

the power, than they go far beyond their predeces
sors at the regular session, and at the extra session.

all the other articles mentioned. Who deny that

The Place of Rest,

Let man be ever SO much troubled and
worn down by tolls and Affections of life, his
mind will picture TO him a place of future
rest,--be he an infdel, he pictures an hour
at hand of deep and undisturbed repose,
when the bodymay sink into dreamless sum-
Der. Be he a follower of the cross, he looks
forward to a. bright and blissfu hour, when
his disembodied spirit shall wing it's fight
with cherubim and seraphim to the abode o.
his Creator, "where the wicked cease from
troubling, and the weary are al rest" Be
he Mahommedan, he looks thro' the bright
vista of the future, the golden portals Of Ely
sian opens to HE mind in licentious grandeur,
where the soul shall feast through endless
eternity on the verdant pasture Of his pecl-
liar paradise. Should he be a child of gree q
Celumbias wilds, free and untrammeled,
proud, erect and unleuered in his native
glory, he looks with the fondest hopes to his
spiritual hunting grounds, where the white
man shall no longer disturb his rePose oil
trespass upon his lands. Man is but the
creature Of hope which fingers on his mind
through life, and brightens the prospect wher
the dreary embers of his existence is abou
TO flicker into another state of existence.
oh, Lord, what is man that thou ar
mindful of him, or the SON Of man that thol
visitests him!''-Port Gibson Herald.

"TIME, FAITH AND ENERGY"
BY ROBERT MORRIS. ESQ.

Perhaps there never was period I'm our
history, when greater necessity existed for
the exercise of the recuperative energies Of
the pSople and of the country, than at this
present GIoment. Thousands have been in
iured by the vicisstudes of trade and the
changes Of fortune. The rich have become
poor, and the Independent have lost their
means of support. Many under such cir
cumstances are disposed to despond. They
fear that their chance has gone by, that the
tide in their affairs has been at its food and
is subsiding, that the future has little hope
OF no encouragement for them. Not so, how.
ever, in country like ours, il we possess
health and energy, and are on the Sunny
side of fifty. Ingenuity, industry and per
severance, "time, faith and enerqy.n il
accomplish much. Some Of the most emf

VELVET CARPET.-MOst people have seen
a beautiful article Of paper hangings, usu-
ally termed "velvet paper" the figures on
which resemble fine cashmere of brilliant
colors. The velvet carpet is made upon a
similar principle. The base is Of cheap
and strong cotton sheeting. The figures
are formed of old woollen cloths Of various
coiors ground up fine, and secured to the
base BY strong copal cement. The rich
and elegant figures are rapidly formed by a
peculiar process and operation Of machine
ry. This carpet is calculated to be very du-
rable, and will come into market cheaper
than any other kind, for handsome floors

The Motherss smile.

By A. E. CARPENTER
There are clouds that must o'ershade US
There are griefs that all must know
There are sOrrows that have made u
Feel the tide of human woe;
But the Representatives, sorrow,
Though il sere the heart awhile,
Hopes cheering ray may borrow
From q Mothers welcome smile!
There are days in youth that greet US
With ray too bright to last-
There are cares Of age to greet Us
When those sunny days are past;
But the past scenes hover DER US,
And give back the heart awhile,
All that memory can restore us
Ina Mothers welcome smile!
There are scenes and sunny places
On which mem'ry loves to dwell
There are many happy faces
Who have known and loved so well;
But mid JOY or mid detection,
There is nothing can beguile,
That can show the fond affection
OF Mothers welcome smile!

REvENeE.-Revenge Is as incompatlble

Observation-Disclosures is as incompatible
with happiness as IL Is hostile TO religion
Let him whose heart is black with malice,
and studious Iof revenge, walk through de
fields while clad with Howers,-to hs eye
there is no beauty, the flowers to BIN exhaie
no fragrance. Dark as his sost, nature is
'robed in deepest sable. The smile Of beauty
lights not up his Bosom with joy-but the
furies of he'll rage in his breast, and render
him as miserable as he would wish the object
of his hate. But let him lay his hand on his
heart, and say, ''Revsnge, I cast thee from
me-Father forgive me as l forgive my
enemies, land nature assumes a new and
delightful garniture. Then, indeed, are the
meads verdant and the flowers fragrant
then is the music Of the groves delightful TO
his ear, and the smie Of virtuous beauty
lovely 10 the soul.

shine and the light, IS essential to It's exis-
tence. The gloom OF to-day may serve but
to prelude the glory of tomorrow. The
thick cloud which hovers above, and darkens
our path, may soon pass away and give place
TO blue skies and golden sunshine. 'Nalure,'
observes an eloquent writer, "scatters the
seeds of genions TO the winds, and though
some may perish among the stony places of
the world, and some may be choked by the
thorns and brambles of early adversely, yet
in the clsfts of the rock, struggle brayely

with the ways Of fortune II is a cherished
theory of ours, that sooner or later, even in
this life, the beings who cling to truth, virtue
and integrity--who have hope in Heaven,
who make proper use Of the faculties and
energies with which they are blessed BY
Providence, will ultimately succeed, and
may. in the true spirit Of philosophy, smile
upon the storms and tempests, in which, for
time they may be surrounded. "Time,
faith and energy" are especially essential
after such a CONFUSION as has been expert
Ienced in the monetary and commercial world
of this Union. The worst, we feel satisfied
has gone by. The FUTURE should not be
disregarded, for in that future. with the eX-
