Advices from the United States squadron on the
coast of Africa, to March IS, speak of the general
good health of officers and men. A letter says:
" Nothing can be more evident than that this is
emphatically the land of the negro Here he will
grow, strengthen, and flourish, while to the white
man it is truly the land OF the shadow Of death
Persons with good constitutions and good health
may, with the exercise of prudence manage to get
along for short time-perhaps for few years
but in the end must be conquered"

In the Senate, on Monday, t20th,i Foote. and
Clemens continued the debate the plan Of the
Compromise Committee. A resolution calling on
the President for information relative to the Cuba
movement, was introduced and laid over.
In the House, Toombs Of Georgia, defended the
legality of the Galrhin claim, and sustained Secre-
tary Crawford. Brooks, Schenck and other Wings,
attacked the whole Cabinet. Schenck introduced
resolution authorizing bringing suit against the
heirs of Galphin and MIR. Crawford, to recover the
amount paid Nothing was done in relation to the
matter
The official announcement of the Presidents
hostility to all plans of compromise except the one
proposed by himself, has considerably impaired the
prospects of Mr.. Clays bills.

Lay of the Famine.

t. IRISH HUSBAND TO MS WIFE.
Bright was your blue eye, Kathleen,
Smooth was your sunny brow,
On that fair morn, my Kathleen,
When you breath'd your bridal vow.
Joy wove his choicest treasures round US;
Peace came with all her smiling train;
Mirth in his magic circle bound us,
Whence fed the phantoms, Grief and Pain.
Few years have pass'd, my Kathleen,
Since you breadth d your bridal VOW,
Hope standing DER us, Kathleen
God, to see you now!
To see your blue eye waning, waning,
To see your brow so seamd with pain,
To see gaunt Hungers red tooth drawing
The life blood from each throbbing yem
Fair frst-born, Kathleen,
As it hung upon your breast;
Oh weep not, weep not, Kathleen,
Why mourn its speedy rest
And tell me not its smiles would tighten
The pangs that revel through this heart;
Say, how could smiles its young cheek brighten,
While Famine struck with yenom'd dart.
Our last, our youngest, Kathleen
Forgive this struggling tear
It's sinking cries, my Kathleen,
Ring my
o God, to hear its plaintive wailing,
To see your look of dark despair,
When the mothers fountain failing,
It's lips conyulsive drank but air
Rest on this BOSOM Kathleen
All, save your love, is fed!
Ha, what-my wife my Kathleen
Fend, Tempter, she's NOT dead!
Stare not with those eyes blindly,
Fan me with thy gentle breath,
Speak even coldly unkindly-
Kathleen, Kathleen is this death

The Gospel.

This is the word preached; it is neither spent in
its descent from Heaven wasted in its transmits
sion through ages-fresh and beautiful and holy as
at first repeated every Sabbath, read in every BIZ
ble-the eloquence of many thousand pulpits, and
the music of many tongues 1t is Heavens jubilee,
sounding in the cells of the great prison house. 1t
the light of eternal day shining through its gra
tings. Christ crucifed is the commencement, the
end, and the coronal of christianty-a truth that
endures forever it is enshrined il glory. Langua-
ges change ceremonies vary, sacraments are tempo
rary Sabbaths like little pools will be swallowed
ly while there are wants, and ministry while there
is ignorance but around this dissolving world, one
thing abides-the word of the Lord, that endures
forever. Whatever opposes this must perish what
contends against it must be crushed. Infdelity
the word of man. however musical its utterances
will be hushedits airy frostwork, however glitter
ing in the sunbeams will be dissolved. The Gospel
is divine in its birth and eternal in its destiny.
Christianity enunciates truths that are above the
tde-mark of time, and rooted in the attributes Of
God it cannot be extingushed, for God is its light
it cannot die, for God is its ife.-Sat Courier.
