Give Every Dav.

Let us give something every day.
For one another's veal;
A word, to make the gloomy gay,
Or the crushed spirit heal:
A look. that TO the heart will speak,
OF him that's poor and old
A tear for her, Ger whose wan cheek
Full many q stream has rolled.
The objects of our love and care,
In every path we see
And when they ask a simple prayer.
y, shall We selfish be,
And turn away with naughty thrust,
As if the God above
Were partial to our pampered dust,
And only US did love
Let US givs something every day
To comfort and to cheer
IT'S not for gold alone they pray,
Whose cries fall on the ear:
They ask for kindness IN our speech
A tenderness Of heart
And warmth and life impart.
We all can give-ths poor-the weak,
And be an angel guest;
How small thing-to smile-to speak,
And make the wrstched blest
These fsvors let US oil bestow,
And scatter JOY abroad,
And make the vale Of sorrow glow
With the smeet smiles Of God

The Havana Faro Industrial Of the 18th instant

In a letter dated 9Th November the subioned in.
tercsting notices arc given about this unfortunate
country, which her most eminent citizens are aban
doning TO banditi. great number of families
also preparing 10 leave IL for Cuba and Mexico.
General PACE has been transferred from the pris-
Ons of Caracas 20 the castle Of Cumana, which has
been put into a state Of repair, at expense Of
$4,000.
DR.. Angel Quintero, formerly secretary, and the
constant friend Of PACE, is the individual who al
tracts the most attention, by the serenity and firm
ness which he has displayed. Misfortune, instead
Of debasing, has elevated his SOUL and the noble
and worthy conduct which he manifcsts is at once
the torment and the terror Of his enemies II is related
Of him that, on hearing the bells Of the churches
toll on the entry Of Pacz and his fellow prisoners
into Valencia, he smilingly said General, these
people arc burying us before we are dead" When
he transferred 10 Caracas, the rabble saluted
him with a shower Of stones and scsndalous out
cry. Without being in the least moved he turned
TO them and said: Thanks, civilized people; you
arc delightful hope for the country" To group
that furiousy cried out for the head Of Dr. Qlinte
70, he answered with admirable camness and ex.
quisite policy raising his stentorian voice above the
tumult Of the crowd; "Gentlemen, am sorry
cannot comply with your wishes. MY head doe,
not belong TO me. Commandant Zainora has, for a
long time, had IL i'm his custody" This comman.
dant had been for three years a ncatlierd, and IL
