ANS for the Best.
BY MARTIN F. rurPER.

.w. for the best be sanguine and cheerful
trouble and sorrow are friends in disguise;
Nothing but folly goes faithless and fearful;
Courage forever is happy and wise;
Al, for the best-if man would but know it;
Providence wishes US all to be blessed;
This is no dream of the lundit or poet;
Heaven is gracious, an1-all's for the best.
An for the best! set this in your standard,
Soldier of sadness or pilgrim of love,
Who to the shores of despair may have wandered,
A wayweary swallow, or heart stricken dove;
All for the best !--be man but confding,
Providence tenderly governs the rest,
And the frail bark of His creature is guiding,
Wisely and warily, all for the best.
All for the best! then fling away terrors,
Meet all your fears and your foes in the van,
And in the midst of your dangers or errors,
Trust like chic, when you strive like man;
Alps for the best!-unbiased, unbounded,
Providence reigns from the east to the west;
And by both wisdom and mercy surrounded,
Hope and be happy that all's for the best.

IT TAKES THE VIDDERs Quite mis-
take took place in love affair at Phila-
delphia. A couple of young folks agreed
to elope together, and by some mistake in
the preliminary arrangements, the male
lover put his ladder up to the window
next to that where his sweetheart slept,
which proved to be that where her NAM
ma, handsome widow, reposed. She
turned the mistake to her own advantage,
got into his arms, returned his embraces,
was borne by him to the carriage, and by
preserving becoming silence until day
light, kept him in error, and then, by the
potent power of her Establishments, actu-
ally charmed him into matrimony with her
self.

Important from Algeria.
.Algaers proclaimed by the Duo d. Eumale

apart of the French Republic.
BY the latest intelligence from Algiers,
we are informed, that on the receipt Of
the astounding news from Paris, there
was a tremendous excitement among the
military in the city and immediate neigh
borhood. The officers Of the Chnsseurs
d. .9triqe'e Immediately, together with
several other regiments, among which
those of the .7tlUe'ie Legere we're the
most prominent, declared lunanimite
their adhesion to the existing state of
things in France. The .MrseUaise and
Paras'enne were sung with great cnthusi-
asm.
The Moniteur Algerien, of the Goth of
February, had an announcement from the
governor general, the Duke d:Aumale of
the news received from Paris. There
were, indeed, two notices-the first being
of dispatch from Paris, dated on the at.
ternoon Of the Oath, informing him of the
abdication of the King in favor of the
Count OF Paris, and the Duchess dor
leans proposed as regent: to which the
governor general adds the following note:
"The governor general, knowing the
patriotism of all, adds nothing to this news.
Nothing can change our duties, or affect
our duties to France.
H. D'ORLEANS."
"Algiers, Feb. q.
The second notice says:
"The governor general has not receiv.
ed from France any official ccnmunica-
ton; but he is informed that the follow
ing despatch has been addressed to all
projects and sub-prefects. (Here the
general publishes despatch, announcing
the formation of the provisional govern
ment.) The governor general can cnly
repeat what he said yesterday. Nothing
is changed in cur duties towards France;
the population and the army will wait
with the greatest calm for the ORDERS of
the mother country.
II. D'ORLEANs.
"Algiers, Feb. %, 10 at night.
The allegiance Of the Due d 'Aumale to
the republic, secures peace TO Algeria,
and removes these apprehensiolIs Of a COL
oni2l war which an opposite pulley might
have produced. We observe that the
Prince de Joinvilie united with the Due
d'Auma!e in proclaiming the republic at
Algiers.
All was quiet at Brussels on the 9Th
of March.
Our latest accounts from Vienna left

SMART WoRKERs.-A man down in
Lynn it is said, made so many pair Of
shoes in one day, that it took him two
days to count them? He was a smart one,
but not equal to one up in New Hamp-
shire, who built SO many miles of stone
wall in one day that it took him all that
night and the next day TO get home again!

A Fight Brewing.

The editors of the st. Louis Rev;lle
and the Republican have got into a diff
Guilty which we fear will lead to something.
Here is what the Revile says about it:
ANOTHER sINTERvIEw!"-We are to
have second INTERVIEW with neighbor
Chambers, this morning, Immediately after
lunch; and no sidewalk in the city being
considered sufficiently capacious, the par
ties have agreed to the following arrange
ment:
Neighbor Chambers will proceed to the
foot of the telegraph mast, near the shot
tower; while we, crossing TO Bloody Is
land, station ourselves by the mast at the
Island head. AT given signal, each par
ty will off boots, climb to the top of his re-
spective stick-and glory to him who
survives the first glance!
Should it be our lot to fall, we hope that
some friend may spread copy of the Re-
publican beneath, TO catch us; as that is
probably the only thing which We never
yet got through!

To Cur GLASS WITH PIECE OF Iron.
Draw with pencil on paper any pat
tren to which you would have the glass
conform; place the pattern under the gl.ss,
holding both together in the left hand, for
the glass must not rest Oh any plain sur
iace;) then take a common spike, or some
similar piece of iron, heat the point of it
toredness, and apply it to the edge Of the
glass; draw the iron slowly forward, and
the edge OF the glass will Immediately
crack; continue moving the iron slowly
over the glass;, tracing the pattern, and
the chink in the glass will follow at the
distance Of about half an inch, in every
direction according to the motion of the
iron. 1t may sometimes be found requis-
lite, however, especially in forming corn
ers, to apply a wet finger to the opposite
side Of the glass. Tumblers and other
glasses may be cut or divided very fanci-
fully by similar means. The iron must be
reheated as often as the crevice in the
glass ceases to follow.-Scientifc Me-
chanic.

1.-The Boston Post thinks that if there
was no almanac to tell us the presidential
election was approaching, it might BIT
known from the cutting down of wages by
the manufacturers, and the preliminary
cry of ''ruin," which like the roar Of the
jaguar, is never to be mistaken by those
who have once heard it.

WANE OF IsrIDELlrY IN FRANcE.-If
lnfidelity is not passing in France, it Ger
'tainly does not manifest itself as it did in
the revolution of '89. Then everything
sacred was spurned; now it is far other
wise. The clergy have been prominent
IN all the late movements. The following
incident in the first burst of the revolu-
ton, maniiests a deeper religious senti-
ment than we thought possible among the
Partisan populace:
on taking the ruilliries, the people found
magnificent image of Christ, in sculp-
ture; they stopped and saluted it. "My
friends" cried a pupil of the Ecole Pol
ytechlnic, ''this is the master of us all !"
The people took the Christ, and bore it
solemnly to the church of St. Roche
citizens, off with your hats. Salute
Christi and every body inclined in a
religious attitude.
