fMoTTo OF THE HERALD.
"Upward and Onward"
The morn Of thy glory,
Unclouded its brightness.
In splendor bursts Ger thee;
With the speed Of the wind
On thy mission away!
Thy readers await thee,
Then onward-away!
/" Upward aud Onward"
To tower and dome,
To proud palace halls.
And low cottage home;
A welcome they'll give thee,
And beauty shall trace
The message thou Dearest,
On thy speaking face.
+" Upward and Onward"
From west to the east,
Cheer with thy gladness,
The greatest-lhe best.
A voice from the prairies
To New England's hills.
To the sons of the Pilgrims
Like music il thrills.
I" Toward and Onward"
From north to the south,
Bear on thy bold front,
Wisdom and truth.
The mind that is weary
The heart that is broken.
May read on thy pages.
Some Joy bringing token.
Upward and Onward"
The star of thy pathway,
Beams on the future.
The light of it's MONDAY;
No night may sweep Ger thee
With dark brooding wing
No poet be called on
Thy requiem 10 sing!

Hancock County.-We conversed
last week with gentleman from the
eastern part of the county, an old citi-
zen of the county. We learn from
him, that in that section the Mormons
have all left, and their places been
Supplied by an industrious and respec-
table class of new corners, who have
no faint of Mormonism. He tells us
that gentleman by the name of Clark,
from Pittsburgh, or vicinity, has re-
Gently visited the county, and after
looking over it, has bought farms
enough for twenty-six families, and
has returned to bring them out. Others
are coming into the county, singly and
in pairs, and taking up the vacant
lands, and the whole population in the
county appears to be changing for the
better Hancock is one of the best
counties in the State for fertility
of soil and agricultural advantages,
and would now have been the most
prosperous, were it not for the curse
of Mormonism. Happily, this is be-
ing removed, and we may hope that
her destiny for the future will be a
more cheering one than it has been
of late years. We learn there is yet
vacant lands that can be had at the
most reasonable rates.-[Quincy Wing.

Wald Pussians.--A late traveller
in Russia, appears to have been struck
with the appearance of the Russian Ia
borers, stevedores, &c, Cronsiadt !;
and gives the following description of
this singular class of people: +

and grisly on bis bosom. Knowing
that these appendages are subjects Of
establishment to strangers, they never
pass an English ship without some drol-
lery, such ms bleating in long and help

beard gives them title to claim kindred.
In fact Russian peasants are excellent
mimics, and in every way very merry,
contented fellows. You never see them
rowing home at night without song,
if alone, or hearty shouts of laughter, il
there be two. They trim their ragged
sails with great dexterity, and If the
yard arm becomes unruly, and dash
them into the sea, they Chamber in

There is a curious scene at
night on the quay behind the harbor,
when all the laborers are mustered on

employed during the day. Such an

world TO match. Here arc red boards

and about halfway between Africa and
