The LOVE that survives the tomb is one of
the noblest attributes OF the soul. Ii it has it's
woes, 1t has likewise It's delights and when
the overwhelming burst of grief is Gained into
the gentle tears Of recollection, then the sudden
anguish and the convulsve agony over the pres.
ent ruins OF all that we most loved, is sotened
away into pensive meditation on all that was in
the day Of its uvelness Who would root out
such sorrow from the heart, though it may
sometimes throw passing cloud over the bright
hour OF gaie,y, or spread deeper sadness over
the hour of gloom; but who would exchange
it even for the song of pleasure or the burst Of
revelry! No there is voice from the tomb
sweeter than song; there is remembrance of
the dead TO which we turn even from the charm
Of the living. -Iring.

THOSE BUFFALoEs arrived here on Saturday
before noon, on the steamboat Lehigh, to the
number of twelve, and were here taken on shore
to 90 eastward over the national road. Theirre
moval from the boat attracted great crowd Of
men and boys, and as two of them got loose il
was we'll worth the walk to the wharf to see the
operation They were removed from the boat sing
ly, some four or five men having hold of the rope
fastened to their heads. Each one that came off
cleared the track The fourth one slipped his
cable and was off. At the instant, the Indian
who has them in charge caught his lasso and
threw it quick as thought and brought him up all
standing. 1t was specimen of skill that we
never saw exceeded, and could not have believed
had we not seen it. Another was about getting
clear of his halter and Mr. Indian threw his moose
around both his hind legs and laid him on the
ground with surprising adroitness. Another one,
cali, got loose and ran up Monroe street. The
lockers on who had never hunted buffaloes had
scarce time to see that he was loose before the
Indian was on his horse and in full pursuit, The
lasso was again brought into requisition. He
was caught near the court house and brought
down street amidst a tremendous crowd.
These animals, we understand, are to be taken
to Baltimore, where it is designed to raise the
sport of buffalo hunting. When our eastern
neghbors are as expert as this old Indian, they
will have accomplished wonders

New WoRK.-"The Doubling Commandment
Encouraged" by the Rev. Septimus fusion, as
sistant minister of the F street Presbyterian
Church, and chaplain to the Senate of the United
States.
We understand this work is ready for the
press, and will be issued in few days. From
the we'll known qualifications of the reverend
author, for the performance of such task, the
friends of pety may doubtless anticipate such a
production as must claim the favorable regard,
and prove highly acceptable to the Christian
community at large. The amable character, the
mild and benignant manners, and the liberal and
tolerant spirit of the writer of this desirable and
useful manual, all combine to afford the strongest
assurances that it will not only commend itself
to the Christian disciple and devoted professor of
Christianity, but serve as happy and well-timed
auxiliary to the youthful and inquiring candidate
as he prudently and prayerfully approaches the
great benefaction of Saviour's dying love- Such
work, under the hands and from the mind Of
such an author, will assuredly merit the approba.
ton and secure the patronage Of all Christian de-
nominations.
