LETTER FROM BIRD OFREDUM SAWIN.
We copy the following interesting extract from a
letter received by HOSEA BIGELow the Poet, from
Mr.. Sawn Mr.. Bigelow furnishes a copy of the
letter to the An-Slauery Standard, stating that it
was apparently "wrote from Vera Cruz"

me:

It's true chaps i'll want O. two for ollerin drum,
But all the march Pm up to now is jest to Kingdom

I've lost one eye, but that's loss it's easy to supply
Out O. the glory that I've got for that is all my eye
And one is big enough, guess, by diligently usln it
Tosee all shall ever get by way of pay for losin 1t;
Of'cers, notice. who git paid for all our thumps
and kickins
Do wal by keepr single eyes arter the latest pick
So as tile eyes put fairly out, I'll learn to so with

And not alowmysef to be no great put out about it

BEAUTIFUL AND TOUCHING INCIDENT.

BEAUTIFUL AND IOUCHlNG INCIDENT.
One day last summer / took my place in a
Gravesend steamer, and found considerable
amusement in watching the various characters.
Two persons in particular attracted my notice;
one was middle aged gentleman, stout, rath-
or surly, taciturn, who paid no attention to
any living being on board, except huge
Newfoundland dog, that was painting or loll-
ing out his tongue, or roamed among the
passengers, showing them out Of his way,
frightening children by suddenly covering
their faces with one lick of his great tongue,
and convincing nervous ladies that he was
going mad by the vigor with which he stuck
out his legs while rolling on his back upon
the deck. His master eyed these pranks with
sly smile, and seemed quietly TO enjoy the
terror occasioned by the antics of his burly
friend.
The other person whom I especially MOTTO
ed, was very pretty and well-dresSed lady.
Young lady she would no doubt have been
called but that she had with her little girl,
about seven years old, who called her
" mama" She was evidently possessed of
nerves. Indeed, she seemed to be possessed
by Them and their name was legion. End
less were the petty annoyances to which they
subjected her; infinite the dilemmas in which
they involved her. But her keenest suffer-
ings in this small way were caused by the
unwicdy gambols of Lion, the Newfoundland
dog; and her inccssant and puerile exclama-
tons of terror, indignation, and spite, against
the GOOD natured brute, kept the sly malicious
smile upon the lips of his apparently unnotic-
ing master. The little girl, on the contrary,
had to the increasing alarm of the weak
mother, made friends with the monster; and
for long time amused herself with throwing
bits of biscuit for him to catch, which feat,
notwithstanding the incorrectness of her aim,
he managed to accomplish, by making a
boisterous plunge to one side or the other !;
and when at last she timidly offered him a
piece out of her hand, and he acknowledged
the compliment by licking her face and rub
bing his side against her till he almost push
ed her down, the little creature fairly scream
ed with delight. Her mother screamed too,
but in one Of the small hysterical screams IN
which she was fond of INDUCING, and was iol-
lowed by an outburst of anger at Lions "u-
dacity. 49,, u;fto+
Good gracious w she exclaimed :" II tnat
horrid creature should be mad ne Il nave
killed nv child And how dirty he IS TOO
Look at your pelisse, Adeline see what
STATIC It is mi How dare you play with that
dirty animal ?"
This transition from hydrophobia to
soiled dress was too much for Lions master,
and he burst into long loud laugh

S O n n Z T.
BY JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL.

The hope of truth grows stronger day by day;
hear the soul of Man around me waking,
Like some great sea its frozen letters breaking,
And flinging up to Heav'n its sunlit spray,
Tossing huge continents in scornful play,
And crushing them with din of grinding thunder
That makes old emptincsses stare in wonder:
The memory of a glory pass'G away
fingers in every heart, as in the shell
Rpples the by-gone freedom of the sea,
And every hour new signs of promise tell
That the great soul shall once again be free:
For high and yet more high the murmurs swell
OF inward strife for Truth and Liberty.
