While others pine in want and penury,
And feel the piercing cold =
See how they aaunt, arrayed in gayer robes
And live in halls Of pride,
And how they smite the cheek Of innocence,
And DER the weaker ride.
The coward priests are stationed at their posts,
Within their castles strong,
They wag their heads against the true and good
The pullers down Of wrong,
IT. suits of black, in neckclOths white as snow,
They pass along the road,
And leave the men among the thieves that fall
Without a safe abode.
They wear the purple robe and sumptuous fare
Are honored by the crowd;-
On customs honey'd lip who meanly wal,
And press their temples proud.
In some rude hut the true reformer dwells,
Who secs with prophet eyes,
To whom the loving Soul of all, has taught
The worlds great mysteries.
Unknown, uncared, the proud world pass him by
For scenes Of mirth and strife,
But little dreaming of the joys that crown
A simple, lonely life;
Although It's hard to feel the worlds neglect,
To meet no friendly eye,
And harder still with famished hearts to eat
The bread Of poverty.
But yet | love that simple, humble home
Beyond what wealth imparts,
Where home-born joys do bloom and sweetly twini
Their blossoms round their hearts.
Let others boast Of rank and worldly goods,
And mock and hate him here,
And let them madly smite his heaying breast
And bring the bitter tear;
The prickly thorns they too may rudely bind
Around his lowly head,
o then let mine but be his beauteous life
I'll share his humble shed.

the village, it was customary TO fire q
gun, as a signal TO the inhabitants to keep
within their dwellings. The house a.
gainst which the operation was designed,
was then surrounded and whilst some
of the gang forced an entrance, others re-
manned as q guard without. Unless ex-
asperoted by resistance, or instigated by
revenge, the Dakoits did not commonly
proceed to murder but they perpetrated
atrocious cruelties upon such persons as
refused 10 give them, or were unable 10
give them, information regarding proper
~ which they suspected of having been
concealed, burning them with lighted
torches, or blazing straw, or wrapping
cloth or flax, stepped in oil, round their
limbs, and setting it on fire, or inflicting
variou tortures, which caused immedi-
ate or speedy death. The object being
accomplished, and the booty secured, the
gang retired before daylight, and the in
dividuals resumed their daily occupations.
Such was the terror inspired by their u.
trocities, such the dread Of their revenge,
that few of their ~neighbors ventured 10
inform or give evidence against them, al.
though well aware oftheir real character
and proceedings. The police, in,imida-
ted or corrupt, rarely interfered until the
robbery was completed, and the porpe-
traitors had disappeared and their inter-
position was far from welcome to the
people, as their Improbable and vexa-
tious inquiries had freqently no other
purpose in view than the extorlion Of mon
ey, as the price of forbearing to drag the
villagers, unwilling witnesses, before the
European magistrate, or even falsely ac-
cusing them Of being accessory 10 the
Wilson's History Of India.

Which is THE Fool Soon after
the publication of Mr.. Liuredg's first ad-

procured a copy, and sat down in his
family 10 read it. He read it 10 himself.
without saying a word ill he had finish

He then commenced reading it again,
and read it through in The same manner ;
and when he got through, he exclaimed
again, "This man is a fool, or | am"
He then read it through a third time in
the same way, and when he had finished

A RELIGIOUS BROTHERHOOD OF RoB.
BERs.-The Dakoits, although in their
aggregation and in their following ac-
knowledged leaders or sirdars, they bore
an analogy 10 the brigands of the south
of Europe, or the handful of the middle
ages, yet r%esembled more nearly some Of
the illegal considerations which have
been organized in modern days and more
civilized communities in Europe, in their
assembling by night only, and dispensing
and following peaceable occupations du-
ring The day, most Of them being enga-
ged in the cultivation of The soil, or fol-
lowing mechanical trades. individuals
among them were know as sirdars, by
whom their expeditions were projected,
and by whose orders the gang was assem-
bled at an appointed spot, generally a
grove neal the village TO be attacked
The members Of the gang, who were Sc
crelly known 10 the sirdars, and some-
times to each other, repaired to the place,
variously armed, chiefly with swords,
clubs, and pixies, and ONE with match
locks. Their numbers varied from 10

their m%arauding excursion was usually
preluded by q religious ceremony, the
worship Of the goddess Durga, The patro-
ness of thieves, typifed by a waterproof,
or a few blades Of grass. The ceremo-
ny was conducted by a Brahmin of de-
graded condition and dissolute life
Having propitiated the goddess by a pro-
mise of a portion of their spoil, they
marched with lighted torches, and liule

which it was expected TO discover treas.

gang, brought upon him the resentment
Of the whole fraternity, Upon entering

A Great Truth Beautifully Expressed,

At a recent dedication Of a new school
in Boston, Mayor Quincy, after stating
that $500 900 had been recently expen-
ded by the city authorities in the erection
of school houses, gave ulterance the fol.
lowing beautiful thought;
"lf but nee in a century, a liule being
should be sent into this world, ofthe most
delicate and beautiful structure, and we
were told that a " wonderful principle perva-
ded every part Of it, capable of unlimited
expansion and happiness capable Of being
associated with angels and becoming the
friend of God; or if it should receive a
wrong bias, growing up in onmity against
him, and mourning everlasting misery,
would any expense of education which
could contribute to save from such misery
and elevate TO such happiness, be too
much But instead of one such little
being, $4,000 are now entrusted to the
care of the "city fathers" and their ed
ucation in this world will determine their
future destiny-of comp~anionship with
The angels, or with the degraded, wretch
ed enemies of God"
