Beautiful Passage.

Lord Morpeth, in one of his addresses
to the electors of the West Riding OF
Yorkshire, uttered the following beautiful
passage:
Reference has been frequently made 10
the reigns of our former female Sovereigns
and indeed every Englishman must fondly
look back to the wisdom of Elizabeth and
the victories of Anne. But in shaping the
desired career of their fair and young sue
cessor, we do not wish that her name
should rise above the wrecks of armada;
we do not seek to emblazon her throne
with the trophies of such fields as Blen-
helm, or the yet more iranscendent Water
loo. Let her have glories, but such as are
not drained from the treasury or dimmed
with the blood of her people. Let hers
be the glories of peace, of industry, of
commerce, and of genius; of justice made
more ACCESSIBLE of education made more
universal; of virtue more honored; of reli-
gion more beloved Of holding forth the
earliest gospel light to the unawakened ma
tions; the glories that arise from gratitude
for benefits conferred; and the blessings OF
loyal and chivalrous, because conten
ted and admiring people.

BEAUTIFUL and Sublime.

The Hon. John J. Crittenden, III defen
ding a man who stood charged with cap
ital offence, closed his able and powerful
effort by the following touching and SUBJ
lime allegory.
when God in his eternal counsels con-
ceived the thought of mans creation, ne
called to him the three ministers that
watch about his throne-Justice, Truth,
and Mercy,-and thus addressed them:-
Shall we make man!-Then said Jus
tice, 80 God, make him not, for he will
trample upon thy laws. Truth made an
swer also, 20 God, make him not, for he
will pollute thy sanctuaries.' But mercy
dripping upon her knees, and looking up
through tears, exclaimed, 80 God, make
him. will watch over him and surround
him with my crre, thro' all the dark paths
which he may have to tread Then God
made man and said to him, 'Oh man, thou
art the child of Mercy, SO deal lightly with
thy brother.

More Silenee.- IA Good One.

Every one who has visited the seat of
the State Government, at any time within
the last ten years, during session knows
Jenamy O'cen the Irish door-keeper of the
House. Jenny was once taken, III man
ner and form following, TO wit:
The Governor had given party, on the
night previous to the occasion whereof we
are going to speak, and 'Otard,' and cham
pagne had been most literally imbibed.-
The orgies had lasted until wee sma'
hours and next day nearly every body was
on the stool of repentance. The House
was particularly thin and drowsy. Not a
soul was in the lobby. The Speaker nod
ded in his seat. Jenny sat, bolt upright,
but unconscious, in his box; while prosy
old member was mauling away monoton-
ously on some obnoxious item i'll the Tax
Bill. With this exception, all was as qui-
ct as the 'house of death
Aleck Clitherall, who was then assist
ant clerk, seeing Jemmy's situation, and
envying his comfort, left his desk, and GO
ing up TO his victim, pinched him savegely
on his thigh, kissing iercely in his ear at
the same time-'Jemmy, don't you hear
the Speakers hammer! There's a h
| Of a row In the lobbyH
Jenny bounced from his seat as if il
had been red hot, and without waiting tc
open his eyes, roared-absolutely roaret
-'Gintlemen you must RALLY keef
MOOR silence i'a the lobby, IF YOU PLAzE.
Flesh and blood couldn't stand it. The
Speaker laughed outright, and the prosy
member sank upon his seat. AS for Jesn
my, in an instant he discovered how he
had been sold, and started in othaste afte
Aleck. No man ever knew how the mat
ter was compromised when Jenny caugh
up; few have been bold enough to inquire
and those few have received remarkably

A LEGAL 8Deed0te .

Recently, while attending court held
at Il county, where Judge s.
presided, very plain question was pre-
sented for the decision of the court. l.
was argued elaborately on the wrong side
and when the opposite attorney IA real
Paddy, who had just waded through
Blackstone and ChItty, so as to enable him
to obtain license, rose to reply, he was
stopped by his honor, who informed him
that his opinion was made up against
him, and that he would have no further
argument. Paddy laid his hand slowly
upon volume of Blackstone, and opened
where the leaf was carefully turned down
and commenced reading the law d.
rectly in conflict with the opinion of the
court.
Stop sir cried the Judge, i hava de-
cided the case, ,and my mind is no longer
open to conviction, nor will [ have any
further argument on the case
.Oh,' said the lawyer, Il did not intend
to argue the point, nor did expect 10 con
vince your honor-I only wanted 10 show
the court what blasted fool old Black
stone was
Such a shout of laughter as went up
from every part of the courthouse, was
beyond the means of the sheriff or the
court to control for some minutes, when
Paddy was fined dollar 70 his SANDER OF
Blackstone, and the court then adjourned
to liquor.

Seeing that he must do something to
stop them, the clerk crept in the dark, close
to one side of the window, and uttered a
low but fierce groaol in imitation of dog.
Both OF the rogues stepped back at this
unexpected interruption.
Hang it Bill there's cursed dog in
there, | didn't know that Hubert's kept
one,' said one to the other.
"A dog? that's bad. Curse 'em, if it
was man, why shot or a dirk stroke
would fix him; but dogs quite another
thing, for if we shoot him he'd be sure to
half kill one of us'
Bow WOW, wow cried the clerk, with
all his power as he saw them prepare to
resume their work.
'Confound the dog!' exclaimed both.
Never mind; go ahead, Bill, and get
it open now. I'll fix him when we get
in
The burglar addressed as Bill, thrust his
hand in once more to wrench off the last
piece of wood, that obs;ructed their en-
trance, when the clerk, having already,
armed himself with large pair of pin
GERS, seized the robbers hand as though in
vice, and sat up such an outrageous
barking that the whole neighborhood was
alarmed.
For heavens sake, Jack, lend us a
hand here, this cursed animal is biting my
hand off, said the burglar to his confed-
crate.
Pull it away-pull it away quick
i can't
Give it jerk said the other.
900! can't, murder, murder!'
This cry added to the believing of the
supposed dog, soon brought the watch in
good earnest, and the thief who was at
liberty TO do so, ran for his life. The
watchman's lights showed Bill Skies that
he had been bitten by a pair Of pincers.
This is a fact, and occurred in New
York city during the winter of 1s4I; and
Bill Skies served out his Imprisonment at
Blackwell's Island.-F2ag Of oar Union.

What is this!' he cries. sMy Song of
the Rhine!'
He listens. A beautiful and clear voice
is singing; it is still his song, and then the
terrible chorus is taken up by the people;
and the composers first wish is gained;
he feels that he is famous.
But he is dying, choked, stifed with
charcoal. He lies fainting on his bed; but
hope and give him strength. He rises,
falls rather than darts across the room,
sword in hand. One blow shivers the
panes Of his widow to atoms; the broken
glass les in the cool sea-breeze and the
splendid song. Both give life to the young
man; aid when Claudine entered the room,
the composer was able to stand. Ten
minute. after, he had supped in the.por-
ter's lodge, dressed, and come out, to be
borne in triumph back to the theatre,
where hat night he heard, amid renewed
applause, his glorious song sung between
every act and each time gaining new lau-
rels.
Ten days later, Rouget de Lisle was
married I'd Claudine, the prima donna of
Marseilles, and the young composer, in
gratitude to her and her countrymen,
changed he name of his song, and called
it by the name it is still known by-"THE
MARsELLAIsE!'

Ok raHR RIGHT TRAcK.-An examination
Of the map Of Illinois has convinced friend
La Cossitt, Of the Muscaline Enquirer, as
il must any rationa! man, that, to use bis
language, "the citizens Of the 'twin-towns'
have struck the right lead in the matter
Of Railroad from Rock Island to La Sale"
He further very correctly observes, that
"this route from Rock Island to Chicago
passes through fac, rich region, with y
considerable population. and some growing
towns. It will open the markets of the
East to this part Of the Upper Mississippi
Valley, and afford facilities to our merchants
and traders which will not fail to have .
beneficial effect upon our markets."

"The following day, and amid the roaring Of

fifteen years of age, walked boldly from, her pa
