Europe but even this is now held somewhat
cheap the mode of performing II being pref
ty clearly understood. The feat is performed
in this way. In the centre Of a ring OF spec
%tators, stands the juggler with an assistant
Wien all is ready for the performance, the
assistant holds anample cloak or awning over
the juggler, which covers him completely for
the time. In a few minutes this covering is
removed, and the iuggler is discovered seat
ed cross legged in the air-unsubstantiaI air
at the height Of a foot or so from the
GROUND. He is in the thin dress Of his coun-
try, and on one Of his arms which is extend
ed horizontally, in bent form, and which, as
well as the other, has a wide sleeve upon It,
a fold of a cloak was negligently thrown the
remainder ofthe cloak hanging 10 and resting
on the ground. The slight contact of the ell
bow with the cloak is all that connects the
man with terrestrial things. Otherwise, he
is totally le0 in air; and how he maintains
himself there, is incxplicable to appearance.
But the cloak alluded to seems to be in care
less contact with another cloak, or portion OF
attire that rests on the ground fdrther OIL
Now, it is to be believed that, at the point
where the cloak touches the elbow. Il spring
Of a powerful kind passes up the sleeve to
the arm, and bends down under his body,
placing him probably upon a hoop. The 9TH
err end of the spring passes off and finds its
support under the second or farther of cloak.
The spring, in all likelihood, can be folded
up into divisions, 50 as TO be easily conceal
ed while the awning is thrown over the Jug
gler at the close Of the performance, and be-
fore he gives liberty TO the spectators to eX-
anime the spot; which he usually does
This is the received explanation of the feat,
but there is some difficulty still ir under
standing The nature Of the weight or support
which is placed beneath the cloak. This
must evidently be of considerable power to
sustain his frame; and how he gets it out of
the way is not SO easily seen. These facts
are the result of surprising art, address, or
contrivance; and for such the natives of In
dia certainly far excel the whole world

The Quaker turnshi head away. lie can
not answer. Still Paine clutches That hand
still repeats the question. At last, with
tears in his eyes, with choking utterance, the
Quaker gasps 4 syllable; f.
"No! Friend Pdine-no! | have been 10
them ALTO all the Christian churches-all!
And all-yea, all OF these followers of,Jesus,
who forgaye the thief on the cross-all refuse
thy bones a grave
That was a crushing blow for poor Tom
Paine. That was the last drop in the full
cup of his woe; the last kick of Bigotry at
the skull Of dying Oldham.
He never spoke again.
As if this last scorn Of these lnfdel-C Chris
iians had gathered his heart and crushed it
like a vice, then the old man silently .~releas-
ed his hand from the grasp Of the Quaker
silently folded his arms over his breast
dropped his head slowly down, and vas
DEAD!
Now look yondcr, as the soul of that old
man goes up TO judgment-look there, as the
soul of Thomas Paine stands arrayed before
that face Of Infinite Mercy, and answer me
Who would not sooner be Tom Paine
there, before the bar Of Jesus-with all his
virtues and errors about him, than one Of
the misguided bigots who refused his bones
a grave?
Think Of the charity which Jesus preached
before you answer.
And as we quote the terrible truth of those
words, which | found written in an old vol
uue, in the dim ]cloisters Of the franklin Lii
bary-
"Ye has no name. Tile c9Ynirv far irhich

| say, as we quote the terrible truth OF
these words, let us 90 yonder to that desert
ed spot, near New Rochelle. Let US bend
over that deserted mound, covered with rank
grass, read the inscription on that rude stone,
and ~thcn-while the Unbeliever is with his
God, into whose awful councils nor bigotry
nor hate can ever enter-let us remember,
that this simple monument is the only me-
mortal on the Continent of America, of that
Author-tlero who first stood out as the Pre-
phet of our rights, the compatriot of JefTer-
son, the friend of Washington. the author of

Mental Power VS.. Bru.e Force.

We saw the other day the rarest instance
of mental superiority iriumphing over the
hostility of greater animal strength than ever
attracted our observation. A thin, diminu-
tive, consumptive looking fellow, lame, and
using a crutch, sat upon IA packing box out
on the sidewalk in front Of a slop shop
Another man of Herculean frame was strid-
ing up and down, swearing roundly at the
little fellow and exhibiting every symptom of
rage and fury. The huge bully beat the
awning posts with a stick that he held in his
hand, and cast glances like bowie knives at
his quiet opponent on the box. What the
offence or cause OF quarrel was, we made no
effort to ascertain, but merely paused an IN
slant, attracted by the odity of the scene.
Inc big fellow seemed tn be a rough boat
man, and his abuse of the other was i%nterlar-
ded with most outrageous vulgarlty and bias
phemy.
"By -, mister, I'd like to wiring the
necks of a dozen like you before breakfast"
SAID the burly boatsman.
Sorry you cant be gratiied," responded
the little fellow, In a calm, quiet, cool and
collected manner, and every tone he uttered
was a satlrlcal dagger to. the other.

now:

A Flower in the Desert.

Here is a beautiful incident related by an
officer at Matamoros, in a letter to a friend in
Providence, which reminds US that
81. the desert there is still a fountain,
In the wide waste there is still a tree,
And a bird in the solitude singing"
Our army were marching into Malamoros,
and the officer writes: Z" Under a tree just on
the river bank, and at the point where the
hustle and throng Of the passage were great
est, a family Of MeXicans had taken shelter,
who had re-crossed to our side the day before,
and had not had time to move TO their homes.
There were some six or eight children of va
rious ages: one of these a beautiful black
eyed, graceful little creature, of five or six
years. | saw her, while tumult and tell of
all description rang around, while arms were
flashing, cannon rolling, men hurrying to and
fro, horses dashing at wild sreed, the air fill
ed with shouts and oaths, and all was as if
quiet and peace were banished from the earth,
half sitting, half lying upon a grassy knoll,
her head resting upon a white pet dove, and
one little arm thrown around the bird so as
to protect.it from all harm"
What a lesson is taught here! What a
picture for the painter and the poet! See
Innocence personified in that sweet child /!
Sec Peace represented in that beautiful.dov
How they stand out, tho bright, thc.gleriods

his eyes !; they were all the wealth he had,
and he loved them the more the harder he had
TO work for them. The poorest part of the
noyerty that was on him, was that he could
not rive his children the letters. They were
GOOD children, for all the crock of the shop
was on their faces, and their fingers were
bent like eagles claws with handling nails.
lie had been a poor man all his days, and he
knew bis children would be poor all their
DAYS, aud poorer Than he, if the nail business
should continue TO grow worse. If he could
only give them the letters, or the alphabet as
they called it, it would make them the like of
rich for then they could read the Testament.
He could read the Testament a little, for he
had learned the letters by fre-light. 1t was
a GOOD book, was the Testament /; never saw
any other book-heard tell of some in rich
people's houses but it mattered but little
with him. The Testament, he was sure it
WIS made for nailers and such like. 1t help
ed him wonderfully when the loaf was small
unon his table. lie had but little time to
read when the sun was up, and it took him
l,nc to read a little, for he learned the letters
when he was old. But he laid it beside his
dish Mt dinner time and fed his heart with it,
while the children were eating the bread that
fell TO his share. And when he had spelt
ont a line of the shortest words, he read them
aloud, and his eldest boy'th one on the block
there, could say several verses he had learn
ed in this way. 1t was a great comfort to
think that JeemeS could take into his heart
so many verses of the Testament which he
could not read. He intended 10 teach all his
children IN this way. 1t was all he could do
for them; for all the other hours he had to
be at his anvil. Inc mailing business was

BY CAROLINE F. oRNE.

Ho, We who at the anvil toll,
And strike the sounding blow,
Where from the burning IRONS breast
The sparks fly to and fro,
While answering to the hammers ring,
And fires intenser glow
Oh, while We feel tits hard to toll
And sweat the long day through,
Remember, it is harder still,
To have no work to do.
Ho, we who till the stubborn soil,
Whose hard hand guides the plough,
Who bend beneath the summers sun,
With burning cheek and brow
Ie deem the curse still clings to earth
From olden times till now,
But while We feel It's hard TO toll
And labor all day through,
Remember it is harder still,
To have no work to do.
Ho, ye who plough the seas blue field
Who ride the restless wave,
Beneath whose gallant vessels keel
There lies a yawning grave,
Around whose bark the wintry winds,
Like fends of fury rave
Oh, while ye feel it's hard to toll
And labor long hours through,
Remember it is harder still
TO have no work to do.
Ho, ye, upon whose fevered checks
The hectic glow is bright,
Whose mental toll wears out the day
And half the weary night,
Who labor for the souls of men,
Champions of truth and right
Although ye feel your toll is hard,
Even with this glorious view,
Remember it is harder still
To have nc work to do.
He, all who labor, ahs1ho Strive,
ie WELD a lofty power,

Lament of the Widowed Inebriate.


I'm thinking on thy smile, Mary
Thy bright and trusting smile
In the morning of our youth and love,
Ere sorrow came-or guile;
When thine arms were twined about my neck
And mine eyes looked into thine,
And the heart that lhrobbed for me alone,
Was nesting close to mine!
/ see full many a smile, Mary,
On young lips b~eaming bright,
And many an eye Of light and love
Is flashing in my sight =
But the smile is not for my poor heart,
And the eye is strange to me,
And loneliness comes Ger my soul
When its memory turns 10 thee.
I'm thinking on the night, Mary,
The night of grief and shame,
When with drunken rawlings on my lips,
To thee | homeward came,-
., the tear was in thine earnest eye,
And thy bosom widely heaved,
Yet a smile of love was on thy cheek,
Though the heart was sorely grieved.
But the smile soon left thy lips, Mary,
And thine eye grew dim and sad
For the tempter lured my steps from thee,
And the wine-cup drove me mad
From thy cheek the roses quickly fled,
And thy ringing laugh was gone,
Yet thy heart still fondly chung TO me,
And still kept trusting on.
o, my words were harsh to thee, Mary,
For the wine-cup made me wild;
And | child thee when thine eyes were sad,
And | cursed thee when they smiled
God knows | loved thee even then,
But the fire was in my brain,
AND the curse Of drink was in my heart,
To make my love a baDe.
Twas a pleasant home of ours, Mary,
In the spring time of our life,
When l looked upon thy sunny face,
And proudly called thee wife
And twas pleasant when our children played
Before our cottage door -
But the children sleep with thee, Mary,
l shall never see them more.
Thou'rt resting in the church-yard, now,
And no stone is at thy head
But the sexton know a drunkard's wife
Sleeps in that lowly bed =
And he says the hand of God, Mary,
Will fall with crushing weight
On the wretch who brought thy gentle life
To its untimely fate!
But he knows not of the broken heart
| bear within my breast,
Or the heavy load of vain remorse,
That will not let me rest:
He knows not of the sleepless nights,
When dreaming of thy love,
l seem to see thine angel eyes,
Look coldIy from above.
have raised the wine-cup in my hand,
And the widest strains I've sung,
Till with the laugh Of drunken mirth
The echoing air has rung =
But a pale and sorrowing face looked out
From the glittering cup on me,
And a trembling whisper | have heard
That | fancied, breathed by thee!
Thou art slumbering in the peaceful grave,
AND thy sleep is dreamless now,
But the seal Of an undying grief
Is on thy mourner's brow,
And my heart is chill as thine, Mary,
For the joys of life have fled,
And | long to lay my aching breast
With the cold and silent dead,
