1880, aged seventy-two. There was
much weeping and shedding Of tears at
Portsmouth. The children had lost at
once their father, and best friend, and
most amusing playfellow-Portsmouth
had lost one Of her noblest ornaments
England one of her most illustrious pat
riots. We rejoice TO think that many
who never before heard Of John Pounds
will, through Mr.. Guthrie's "Second
Plea" become acquainted with him.
How beautiful is the following tribute TO
his memoryl
"Were we (says Mr.. Guthrie) to make
a pilgrimage anywhere, as soon as 10 the
lowly heath where the martyr reposes,
we would direct our pilgrim steps to the
busy streets of Portsmouth, and turning
aside from the proud array Of England's
floating bulwarks, we would seek out the
humble shop where John Pounds achiev-
ed his works of mercy and earned an
imperishable fame. There is no poetry
in his name, and none in his profession ;
but there was more than poetry-the high.
est, noblest piety-in his life. Every
day within his shop he might be seen
cobbling shoes, and surrounded by some
score or two Of ragged urchins, whom he
was converting into useful members OF
the State. Honor to the memoir of the
patriot cobbler, beneath whose leathern
apron there beat the kindest heart-,here
glowed a bosom fred with the noblest
ambition; and who, without fee from
scholar or reward from man, while he
toiled for his hard-earned bread with the
sweat Of his brow, educated not less than
five hundred outcasts, before they laid
him in the lowly grave! Honor, we say
again, 10 the memory Of this illuslrious
patriot! Nor is there in all the world
any sight we would have travelled so far
or SO soon to see, as that self-same man,
when he followed some ragged boy along
the quays of Portsmouth, keeping his
kind keen eye upon him, and tempting
the young savage to his school with the
bride of Il smoking potato. Princes and
peers, judges and divines, might have
stood uncovered in his presence; and
now marble monuments might be reno.
we'd from the venerable walls Of West.
minister-poets, warriors, and statesmen
might give placc-to make room for
him."
John Pounds has n nobler and more
lasting monument than any of marble or

To KEEP FISH ALIvE.-The London
Literary Gazette has the following, in
relation to keeping fish alive:
"Those worthy individuals who take
delight in lzaak Walton's art, and who,
moreover, are in the habit Of sending the
results oil their sports 10 their epicurean
acquaintances, must learn an indispcnsa-
BILE piece of information, viz: how 10
keep fish fresh. This may be done by
soaking the soft part of bread in brandy,
and inserting it into the gill of the fish
while it is yet alive, afierward sprinkling
it over gently with brandy. Thus pre-.
pared and carefully packed in straw, the
fish will keep alive ten or twelve days,
as may be proved by putting it in fresh
wafer at the end of that time, when, af-
after a few hours immersion, il will re-
cover from its protracted Drunkenness
0T There, the thing is out! We
have often been Stumped 10 tell what H.
quor is good for if not to drink, and
havn't always been able 10 answer TO the
querist's satisfaction. But now we have
tit is good to keep fish alive and sweet
out of water. That's an excellent use,
and no fair man should object 10 it,
Now remember the directions, and don'l
put the brandy 10 the fish after he is
cooked. 1t won't preserve him them

From the North British Review
JOHN POUNDS.

JOHN POUNDS, the founder Of Ragged
Schools, was the son of q workman en-
ployed in the Royal Dockyards at Porls-
mouth, and was born in that town in 1866.
Al the age Of fifteen he met with an acct
dent, which crippled him for life. A
cobbler by trade, he spent the greater
part Of his benevolent career in a small
workshop, measuring some six feet by
eighteen, in St. Mary street, Portsmouth,
where he might be seen day after day
seated on his stool, mending shoes, and
attending al the same time TO the studies
OF a busy crowd Of ragged children clus-
tering around him. In addition to men
lal instruction, he gave these children
industrial training, and taught them to
cook their own victuals and mend their
own shoes. He was unusually fond of
all kinds of birds and domestic animals.
and amused himself with rearing singing
birds, jays, and parrots, which he train
ed TO live %harmoniously with his cats and
guinea-pigs. Sometimes he might be
seen, seated in the midst of his School,
with a canary.bird perched on one shout
der, and a ca, on the olhey. But he was
too poor TO be able long to indulge in all
his benevolent %fancies. When his schol.
airs became numerous, he gave up his
cats and canary-birds, and devoted the
latter part of his life exclusively 10 the
more intellectual employment Of tanning
and ~subduing the "wild Arabs of The
city" How applicable 10 him the i'm
mortal lines of Coleridge:
He prayeth well, who loyeth well
Alithings both great and small
He prayeth best, who loveth best
Both man, and bird, and beast:
For the dear God, who loyeth us.

The candidates for admission to John
Pounds school were always very numer.

10 the little b~lackguards," us he called
them. He used to follow them 10 the
quay, and offer them the bribe of a
roasted potato, if they would com to his
school. Well was he repaid for his I'M
wearied labors by the love and affection
which these children bore 10 him. II is
said that John Pounds's Ragged School
had the following origin: In early life
ne adopted a young nephew of his own,
whom ne thought he could educate better
with a companion than alone, and he ac-
cordingly enlisted in his service the son
OF a poor woman. Then another and
another child was added, until al last he
had collected around him a large school
OF boys and girls. Poor as he was, he
established his nephew comfortably in
the world ; and during the latter years
Of his life he had no less than FORTY
! scholars. He died on the LIST January,

A FEMALE PRoPHET.-There is a young
girl near the Phil. Pike, in Brandy
wine Hundre, who imagines herself in a
trance, and that she can prophesy and
hold conversation with the Lord. She
is constantly pretending to hold CONVEX
sa,ion with the Lord in lain. She gol
religion some time since al Mount Pleas
ant she then stated that about this time
she would be able to prophesy. Some
OF the Brandywine physicians went to
see her, and took down some other latin
conversation. Crowds are there in car
riages and on foot TO see her-and many
appeared aslonished a. wha. they consid-
cred her true revelations.-Blue Hen's

'Old Whey who bore General Taylor

with as much GOODNESS as any veteran

when he witnessed the sad havoc thai

have him strictly guarded against farther

The NIAGARA SUSPENSION BRIDaE.-On
Friday morning last the extensive Circus and
Equestrian troupe Of Col. Mann crossed the
Suspension Bridge, en- route to Canada. The
company occupied % horse teams, headed by
the large four-horse band wagon, together
with their baggage and paraphernalis. As
little delay occurred as at any ordinary bridge,
and the men and horses appeared quite at
home. The whole flooring Of the bridge $500
feet long) appeared occupied at one time, and
presented, from the waters edge, (32O feet
below,) a scene of unequaled beauty and
grandeur-the wires resembling more a spi-
der's web woven across this otherwise impas-
sable chasm, than the firm and solid carthage
way.-Bufab Com.

Is it the star that ever and anon
Hangs in yea northern pole with placid light,
To which the wandering, s~ea-toss'd mariner,
When foaming pillows threaten TO ingulf,
Still turns with anxious gaze his watchful eye,
As plies the helm that guides his fragile bark
To its safe port, his home, his hope, his heaven?
1t is that heavenly index hung on high,
To guide the weary wanderer on his way
From lands where Afric's sons in slavery pine,
To that where woe-worn vassals weep no more,
But man, in all the dignity of man,
Shakes off the shacktes that oppressed his soul,
And stands erect, redeemed and disenthralled,
The image of the God that gave him being?

The Roman RepubHcdns.-Bishop Hughes,
In his second letter on the Peters Pence,
made an earnest protest against comparing the
Roman with our own revolution. To this the
NJ Y. Tribune responds:
"The Bishop protests against all COMPARE
son Of the Roman Revolutionists with our
own forefathers, deeming the former assas-
sins, liars, despoilers Of churches, &c. We
apprehend that there is some truth at the
bottom of this contrast-that the mass Of the
Italians are far less fitted for securing, de-
Tending, and enjoying the blessings Of Lib
erty, than our forefathers were. Whether IL
is polite in a Catholic Bishop to draw the
contrast so broadly, in view of the precedent
history and dominant faith of the two coun-
tries, is a question to be pondered; and, at all
events, If ten centuries Of ecclesiastical SOW
ereignty have left the Romans so wretchedly
qualified for Freedom, we can hardly wonder
that they grow tired of such improbable
schooling. We trust the truth grows every
day more manifest, that the only fit prepare
ton for enacting worthily the part Of Free
men is Freedom" srH

GENIUS N LIBERTY walk together.
Their footsteps are never effaced from
the earth. When oppressed in one region
they appear in another-when they disap-
pear in the East, theyshine forth in splen-
dor from the West, and thus, in the Italian
Republic, as in every other, it is easy to
see their weaknesses and to trace their
downfall. A fundamental evil was the
want Of a Federal compact, for mutual
protection and the repulsion of foreign
foes. Another was the want Of the diff
fusion of knowledge. Machiavelli was
more terrible to despotism than any 9TH
err Of his time, because his influence was
strong in behalf Of popular rights. Look
at that magnificent scoundrel Of Russia!
Give him a housefull of metaphysicians
and theologians 10 discuss extinct dogmas
and exploded theories, and he is perfect
ly content-but you send an honest man
there, to the foot Of the throne where the
Autocrat sits: and let him give a plain
statement Of what Truth requires, what
Men will have, Of the wants Of the Age
and he will trample on that throne
like u iend in He'll! There is nothing
SO painful to the spirit of Tyranny as
honest Truth. The mightiest engine OF
Truth is manly eloquence-displaying
the best energies Of the soul in express
ing those evils which Cypress it most
The e~loquence of Nations constitutes a
sure exponent of its political condition.
