wThe Natural Allies"

The natural allies of the Slave Power
the Polkites, have not, that we have ye'
seen, asked Liberty men to vote for thell
candidate, from anti, slavery considerations
Thev are, however, trying 10 make capl'
tai for him out of his good moral charac'
ter. The old Jackson men, as odd as II
NAV seem, do not see how it is possible
for moral and religious men 10 vote Tor
duelis, 1t is indeed, point hard to DC
reconciled with religion but how the
consistent, unchanged Democrats can
make this objection TO Henry Clay, while
thew themselves have such reverence lor
Gen. Jackson-a duellist not less bloody
than Clay-nay, can go in for candidate
for tho highest office in the GIT OF the
people, whose highest recommendation
being the endorsement OF Gen. Jackson
is hing quite as hard TO reconcile with
decency OF religion.
But if Polk has not killed hia man in
the duel, he stands before the community
a STAKEHOLDER of the most bloody charac-
Ter. II he has rot taken human lie, he
has aimed blow at the vilals Of Liberty
and now stands before the world as The
Shareholders candidate compromise
candidate by which The Northern dough-
faces have been cheated out OF their man,
and themselves bound to do the bidding
of the Slave Power. James K. Polk is
not only in favor of Domestic Slave Trade
but in favor of the Slave Trade on the
coast OF Africa
"On the 18th Of May, 1881, Mr., Mer-
Ger introduced the fell owing resolution;

The Catacombs of Paris.

Professor Durbin, in his work on En
rope, gives sketch OF the Catacombs OF
Paris. He states that that part of the
French Metropolis which lies upon the
lower part Of The Seine, is the oldest -
and that from time immemorial the stone
for building was obtained from quarries
lying under the city. La 1885, a sugges
llon was made TO convert them into re-
ceptacIes for the dead and it was finally
decided that the remains of the millions
that had passed away from the capital du-
ring ten centuries, should be removed
Pillars were built up in solid masonry,
and particular portions separated from the
rest by strong doors, with locks. ~ serve
as receptacIes. Ia 1886, the bones were
conveyed in funeral cars, from one of the
principal cemeteries, and were precipila-
ted down perpendicular shalt into the
caverns below. The contents of the 9TH
er cemeteries were soon placed in the
Catacombs, which were rapidly augmen-
ted by the massacres Of the revolution.
AItlle building is erected outside the
Barriere d Enter, in which is the open
ing OF the principal shaft. The Profess
and his party deccnded by ninety steps
and found themselves alone IN the Governs.
They followed their guide about twenty
minutes, and came to strong door, each
side Of which was ornamenled With pillars
Of Tuscan Architecture. The door was
open, aud as the party passed the thresh-
old the strangers found themselves sur
rounded by walls Of human bones, which
the glare of their tapers showed TO lie
regularly piled up from the floors to the
roof of the quarres. The bones Of the
legs and arms Ioi closely with their ends
outward ; and at irregular intervals,
skulls are nterspersed in three horizon
tai ranges, disposed so as TO represent al
ternate rows of the back and front of the
head and sometimes single pependicu-
lar range is seen, still farther varying the
general outline. Passing along what
seems to be intcrminable ranges Of these
piles OF human beings, they came to sew
eral apartments arranged like chapels,
with varied dispositions of piles Of legs,
arms and grinning skulls.
How new, how strange, remarks the
author, were the associations of this place.
Over our heads was rolling the vast tide
OF life in the gay and wicked cty-its
nyriads of Inhabitants were josling each
other on the roads of business and pleas
urc-while here were The remains Of four
times thei: number, lying in silent and
motioulcss piles in the depths below.

The Alarm Watch.

A lady who found it difficult to awake
so early as she wished in the morning,
purchased an alarm watch. These walch~

The lady placed her watch at The head

long, railing sound. She Immediately
obcyed the summons, and felt better all
day for her early rising. This continued
tor several weeks. The alarm watch
faithfully performed its office, aud was dis,

tired of early rising; and when she was

What is that, mother?
The Lark, my child
The morn has but just looked out, and smiled,
When he starts up from his grassy nest,
And is up and away with the dew on his breast,
And hymn in his heart 10 yon pure, brigh
sphere,
To MARBLE it out in his Makers ear.
Ever, my child, be Thy morn's first lays
Tuned, like the lark'5, to thy Makers praise.
What is that, mother!
The Dove, my son.
Aud that low, sweet voice, like widows moan
Is flowing out from her gentle breast,
Constant and pure by that lonely nesl,
As the wave is poured from some crystal urn,
For the distant dear ones quick return
Ever, my son, be thou like the dove
IN friendship as faithful, as constant in love.
What is that, mother!
The Eagle, boy
Proudly careering his course of Joy,
Firm in his own mountain vigor relying,
Breasting the dark storm, the red bolt defying;
Ills wing on the wind, and his eye on the sun,
lie swerves not hair bears onward, right on.
Boy, may the eagles flight ever be thine,
Onward and upward, true to the line.
What is that, mother
the Swan, my love-
lie floating down from his native grove,
No loved one now, no nesting night;
He is floating down by himself to die;
Death darkens his eye, it unplumes his wings,

Live so my son, that when death shall come,
STan.ike and sweet, it may watt thee home.

THE RAIN

The pleasant ain!-the pleasant rain!
By fits it splashng falls
On twangng leaf and dimpling pool
How sweet its warning calls!
They know it-all the bosomy Wales,
High slopes, and verdant meads;
The queenly ems and princely oaks
Row down their grateful heads.
AS a blessing sinks in grateful heart,
That knoweth all lis needs;
So came the good of the pleasant rain,
O'er bill and verdant mead.
II shall breathe this truth on the human ear,
In hall and cottage home,
That TO bring the gift of bounteous heaven
The pleasant rain hath come.

SINGULAR AND FORTUNATE RESCUE.
We learn from the Exchange Reading
Room Books, that the schooner Herald
arrived at this port yestardy from Bos-
ton, fell in with, on the 18th instant, in
lat, 38 DO, long. 70 80, brigantine
capsized and nearly full of water. The
schr. Washington from North Carolina
was lying near, and the crews Of the
two vessels cut hole through the bow
ofthe brig and to their great surprise
found in the forecastle, little boy 70
years of age, whom they soon released
from his dark and solitary confinement
When found, he was sitting on the head
off cask, with his feet in water, but had
plenty of provisions near him. AS soon
as he saw daylight he commenced sing
ing merriy, and was taken on board the
schooner Washington:
The boy stated that he was from ia.
maica, but could not tell how long he
had been in confinement, and supposed
the rest ofthe crew Of the brig had per
ished. The captain Of the Herald did
not learn the name of the brig or that
OF the captain, but from the fact that
b oat was picked up at sea on the 18th
instant, with the captain and crow of
brig Sir Lionel Smith, from New York
for Kingston, Jamaica, which vessel was
capsized on the 10th inst, aud boy
drowned las was supposedly in the wreck
il is reasonable 10 infer that this is tho
same vessel. If so the little fellow must
haze been IN his glOomy and lonesome
prison nine days. Such miraculous
escape is scarcely TO be found on record .

Slowly and Steadily Onward.

Our Puritan fathers never acted in
hurry, nor with view to temporary
good. They acted on broad, general
principles; they laid their foundations
deep and strong; they waited patiently
for the fruits, and the fruits came; and
when they did come, they were woIth
the having So must wedo, if we would
make any real progress, or even retain
the characteristic excelencies of the
Puritan race. This is the policy of our
opponents, the Romanists, and it is a
wise policy, and they pursue it with an
energy and perseverance, which, if
they only had the truth on their side,
would make them irresistible.
The men that arc needed, are not
men who do things with a flash, and
then leave all things darker than before
hut men who can look far ahead, men
who can form and carry out large views;
men who for Christ's sake, are willing to
/ labor amid obscurity, and hardshps
and privation, when they know all the
while that they would at any moment
better their worldly lot by quitting the
field. When l was boy, and lived in
Massachusetts, Caleb Strong was the
Federal candidate for Governor, and his
party were accustomed to placard on
tho walls and posts in every direction,
A long pull, STRONG pull, and pull
altogether. Now this is Just what we
want for the West A long pull, a strong
pull, and pull aMtOgether: and il is only
such men as are capable Of helping at
such pull, that we can make good use
OF in the great Valley. An old cam
paigner, who served in the peninsuIar
war, told me that in one battle, when
they wcro about in one of those terrible
bayonettings so common in those en-
gagements, eager as grayhounds for the
conflict, and tremulous with excitement,
Sir Arthur Wellesley (now Duke of
Wellington, rode slowly along in front
of their ranks, as straight and as dry as
broomstick, and called out in his PEE
culiarly determined and pathetic tones ::
STEADY, boys, steady He would not
suffer them TO engage while under such
excitement - he would not allow them
to move step till they were sufficiently
cool to do their work in workmanlike
style; and this, his Uniform policy, was
one great secret of his uniform success.
And when | see our spiritual soldiers all
flaming with enthusiasm, and thinking 10
