The Head and the Heart.
FROM THE GERMAN.

The head and the hear. are things
which the world more frequently talks a
bout than knows-.wo precious jewels,
which they who possess them speak lille
Of just as every sensible ricl, man avoids
speaking of lis riches. If we consider
The head and The heart at,en,ivsly. we
shall be led 10 view the former as man.
and the latter az woman. The head
like man, is domineering and impatient;
The heart. like woman, is tender anu
kind. When two heads 0Dme into con-
TACT. a violen, concussion generally ensues
Immediately when. however. two hearts
meet. in minute they may be seen whls-
pering together with female confidence.
The Head is man, and therefore cali
cula,es the course Of exchange asd the
motions Of The planets into com
mi,,ees and cabinets, unloids financial OPP
era,ions. and plans battles ,he heart
weaves love-kno,s. and lays The founda-
ton Of matrimonial aliases. FOR II IS
Masculine indulgence sometimes grants
the head lis hours Of rest the heart on the
contrary. is continually in disquie,, for it
is woman.
The head. like man. seeks its happi-
meas in possessing the heart. like wo-
man, is happy only when it can commu>
nicate what it possesses. ri
Man, the head. endeavors to mediate
on God. and halls in his presnmplnous
efforts woman. the heart, feels God. and
this feeling gives her peace and happi-
ness.
When head gets into company with
heads of inferior rank. if j, be very cour-
,eous, it will, with true manly condesen.
SIGN, lower itself 20 them, and the Offend
ed heads. therefore, secretly hale il; the
female tender heart. on the contrary, rais-
es inferior hearts 10 itself. and for this
kindness reaps gratitude and love.
The head condemns, the heart excuses;
the head reyenges, The heart forgives; the
head is ingenious. the heart is telling the
head wounds. the heart feels; the head
conquers, the heart capiiva.es !; the head
therefore is man, anG the heart wo>
man. We would carry this comparison
Till farther, and say. head and heart are
husband and wife. for head and heart. as
we have just seen. are always Of different
opinions. The head. like my lord hus-
band. busters and commands; the heart
lets it speak. like my lady wife.
My lord head makes his approach with
a graceful bow !; my lady Heart storms US
with sweet chances and tender words.
The head, according 10 the custom Of
reckless husbands, has recourse 10 the
heart only when the world has severed
and sickened il. and rushes again into the
,umult Of life. ungrea.ful as husband. as
soon as the heart has tenderly spoothed
the burrows which chsgrin had Plowed
on his brow. ).
When head and heart happen TO dis
pu,e. the heart as the wife. has common
" The last word. and on such occasions
The head displays . gallan,ry which other
husbands are deficient Oft il silent
when the heart becomes elamerous.
IfMr. Head tyranisss u Mrs. Heart. II

Footsteps Of Aneels.

III LONGFELL0W.
When the hours Of day are numbeted,
And the voices Of the Night,
Wake the hitter soul that slumbered,
To holy, calm delight;
Ere the evening lamps afsEghtea,
And like phanton,s grip. The tall
Shadows from the Gtful irc-light
Dance upon the parlor wall:
Then the forms Of the departed
Enter at the open door:
The beloved ones, the true hearted,
Come 10 visit me once more.
He, the young and strong. who cherished
Noble longings for the strife
BY the roadside fell and persisted
Weary with the. .alarch Of lifel..
Then the hoy ones and weakly
Who the cross Of sufiins bore
Folded their pale hands 50 meekly-
Spake with US on earth no more!
And with them the being beauteous
Who unto my youth was given,
More than all things else to love me,
And is now saint IN heaven.
With slow and noise!ess footstep,
Comes that messenger divine,
Takes the vacant chair beside me,
Lays her gentle hand i'll mine.
And she sits and gazes at me,
With those deep and tender eyes,
Like the stars, so still and saint-like,
Looking downward from the skies.
Uttered not, yet comprehended,
Is the spirits voiceless prayer,
Soft rcbukes in blessings ended,
Breathing from her lips Of air.
-;
O, though oft depressed and lonely.
All my fears are laid aside,
If but remember only, So
Such as thee have lived and died!

elected such universal admiration during their stay
in this city, will be removed to Boston during this
week, where, we trust, they will receive unbound

Mr.. Winter has now been with us nearly five
months, and during that time has been visited by
many thousands of the elite and connosseurs OF

proprietor may travel, we hope he will receive that
encouragement which his talents and perseverance

ILLEGAL Man. ESTABLISHMENTS We perceive
that Spooner OF this city, and his agents in Balii-
more, have been arrested the suit of the Postmas-
ter General, for the establishment of mails contrary
TO the acts Of Congress- and for the illegal carrying
of letters. The agent in Baltimore has, it seems
been cast, and fined $50 for each offence.
and Spooner will probably be dealt with in the
same way We have great opinion of the be-
rality or enlarged intellect Of the Postmaster Gene
raj, but his conduct IN this instance is quite right
and proper. The laws must be indicated Indeed
the attempt OF Spooner az Co. was one Of the most
lmpudent things we have ever seen. As well
might a feon complain that the District Attorney
had used him very harshly by preventing him from
testing the constutionality of the law which pro-
nounced him thief
What has astonshed us most in this business
has been to see David Hale and others justify this
attempt TO subvert the law, and set the government
at open defiance.
This certainly indicates a very bad spirit, and
very bad logic BY the by, how comes it thai
whilst spooner is thus properly prosecuted, we see
person named Hale, in Wall street, regularly ad
