POETRY.
WEEP NOT For HER.

.Noctcs dm6rOsidn"'
Weep no, for her Her span was like the sky
Whose thousand stars shine beautiful and bright;
Like flowers, that know not what II is to die
Like long linked, shadoloss polar light
Like music floating DER q wavelcss lake,
While echo answers from the howury brake:
Weep not for her!
Weep not for her. She died in carly youth,
Ere hope had lost its rich, romantic hucs:
When human bosoms seemed the homes of truth,
And earth sill CLEANED with beauly's radiant dews.
Her summer prime wnned not 10 days that freeze;
Her wine Of life was run not to the lees:
Weep not for her
Weep not for her! By fleet or low decay
II never grievcd her bosom's to mark
The pluymotos Of her childhood wear away,
Her prospects withcr, or hei hopes grow dark
Translated by her God, with spt-shriven,
She passed, 'twefe in smiles from earth TO Heaven
Weep not for her
Weep not for hei 1t was not hers to feel
The miscries that corrode amusing years,
'Gainst dreams of bafled bliss the heart 10 Steel
To wander sad down agc's vale of tears,
As whir the withor'd leaves from friendships uoe,
Weep for her
Weep not for her! She is an angel now,
And trcads the sapphire floors of paradise;
All darkness wiped fiom her refugont brow,
Sin, sorrow, suffering, bauishcd from her eyes
Victorious over death, to her appear
The vista'd Joys of heavens eternal year
Weep not for her
Weep not for her Her memory is tho shrine
Of pleasant thoughts, soft as the scent of flowers,
Calm as MINDLESS eve the SUMS decline,
Sweet as the song of birds among the bowers,
Rich the rainbow with ts hue of light,
Pure as the moonshine of an ouumn's night:
Weep not for her!
Weep not fol her There is no of wo;
But rather nerve the spirit, that it walk
Unshrinking DER the stormy paths below,
And from earhs low deflemcnts keep thee back
So when few fleet severng years have flown,
She meet the at heavens gate, and lead the on !

=, The Milwaukee Sentinel publishes letter, from
New YORK, which contains the following paragraph:
" 1t is fact within my personal knowledge, that
after the scathing discipline of Mr. Webster's late
speech, overtures were sanctioned by Mr. Inrersoll
to Mr. Webster's friends and the very form of Ian
guage which both parties should use, was submit
ted to and approved by Mr. Ingersol that he (Ar.
- would acknowledge that his accusations teere
ieyed to be true but which the proof failed to es-
tablsh- provided Mr. Webster would withdraw
his terrible words uttered in the U. S. Senate
These overtures only failed by reason of matters of
form: Mr.. lngersoI insisting that Mr.. Webster
SHOULD come more than halt way to meet him,
which, of course, Mr. WIS friends would not as
sent to- But though the overtures failed, the fac.
remains that MIR. lngersoll ,cas wiing and prepar-
ed 10 admit that his accusations gere false And yet
he has now the hardhood to reiterate them The
man must have lost, or be entirely without the NOR
al sense to venture upon such certain selfdestruc-
ton,

THE DRUNKEN MOTHER.

TEMPERANCE BALLAD-BY REV. c. W. DENNfsoS.
There stood by a lonely window sill
A pale and ragged child;
'Twas midnight and tho wind blew chill,
With mourning voice and Wild.
The lattice rose, and within the room
staggering woman came,
And hoarso, from amid the lonely gloom,
She mutteTed the poor boys name.
But he turned away as she spoke to him,
And hummed sad dltty DER;
Ills form fitted by in the amp-light dim,
On the iottcIing cellar door.
"Why not go H., my little lad 7"
a kindly neighbor suid
Then the boy looked up, with face so sal,
And II shudderlng so dread!
"l'm afraid of my mother, lady" said he,
" dare not 60 to her side
My father lies buried away in the sen:n
Andhe leuGed on the house, and cried.
She curses me, lady, and beats me, too -
And he bowed his head as he spoke
His tears fell fast as the rain drops do
For his little heart was broke
"My mother once was kind TO me,
And happy boy was ]
But she pushes me now from Oft her knee
oh lady, want TO die "
"Why want 20 die 7" the neghbor said,
"Why shivering here in wo;
What makes you thus your mother dread,
And fear by her side to eo!''
I" NY MoTHER's a DBuNKARD !" the boy replied,
" And she drives me out Of tho door;
She loved me once = and he stopped and cried
"But she loves me now no more"
Z" ! will 90 in the ship, on the broad deep sea,
Where my father went one day;
The waves, [ know, will be good to me-
For they will bear me from home away"

O. We have never known the Wing sentiment
to be more unanimous more sound more true to
the country than in the present uncture of affairs
All questions have been postponed, until arms,
money, provisions, and men, are supplied to repel
hosttles, and preserve the lives and the honor of
our army on the frontiers. With full conviction
OF the improperly, or at least the mpolicy of the
course OF the Administration, in sending troops to the
Rio Grande, at this time, and under the circum-
stances in which they were sent, the Wings have
not hesitated or faltered in their duty. They have
spoken out independently and manfully but they
have held nothing back from those having the con-
troll of public affairs, which they wanted, in the
crisis they have brought upon the nation. They
have come up to all our expectations. And those
who, If danger does come in reality, or If it shall
become necessary to punish aggression, will be, as
we have always said, foremost in defence of the
country, and in the front rank in any emergency,
will be found the wings. They will merge their
party feelings into their love of country, and serve
her alone faithfully and manfuly-.4ier. Ga=.

IHE LOWELL Factory GIRLS AT WASHING
ToN:--A correspondent of the Newark IN. J.) Ad-
vertlser written from the seat of government, and
IN alluslon 10 the great National Fair says-"The
Lowell Girls are in their best blbs experimenting
the exhibition of goods from their factories. They
are hne blooming specimens OF the natural produc-
tons OF the land of steady habts-the taireSt fea-
ture, IN fact, of the Fair. Our friends of the South
will see in these really beautiful Representatives
well bred, intelligent, and self respecting females
AN unanswerable demonstration OF the glorious
benefits of free labor under the fostering protec-
ton Of paternal government. The whole world,
throughout its whole history, may be safely chal-
enged to produce such an example"

YOUNG MEcHANIos.-There is no class of the
community upon whom the future welfare Of the
country more essentially depends, than upon the
rising generation of young mechanics. If they
intelligent, SOBER industrious, and consequent
ly independent, able and accustomed to Judge for
themselves. and governed in their own conduct BY
an enlightened view of their own best interest,"
if they are men of this Sort land it is for their fathers
to make them such) the mechanics will form the
strongest buwark of our free institutions, and the
best hope of the Republic.

TIE ROMANCE OF GEOLoGY-No. v

found complete, or nearly so Much confusion has

nearer to the hippopotamus. Clver however. de-
termined 1t to be the head of an extinct family
coInprehending several other species. 1t is about
one hundred and twenty years since remains of the
Mastodon were first discovered in America, and
vast quantities OF them have been since found in
the same region, buried chiefly in marshy grounds
one skeleton, nearly complete was dug up on the
oahks OF the Hudson in 1901 and it is from this

principally derived In height, the Mastodon
seems TO have been about twelve feet, a stature
Whlcn the Indian elephant occasionally attains-
But the body OF the Mastodon was greatly eonga-

were thicker The whole arrangement of the bony
structure resemood that Of the elephant excepting
IN one point, which Cuvier regarded as of sufii-

divided, on their upper surface, into n number of
rounded obtuse promlnences, arranged not like the
elephants, but like those of the wild boar and hip
