giant strides up the western sky. Contrary
to their usual custom, the people waited in
silence until their pastor had descended from
the pulpit, and passed down the aisle; then
the aged deacon moved forward, followed by
the congregation in due order. As they is
sued from the wide doorway, the whole male
portion, as if moved by one impulse, took their
way to the village common. Thoughtfully and
silently, to the roll-call of the booming thun-
der, they took their places, shoulder to shoul-
der, and the old minister saw before him the
strength Of the village, and each man capable
of bearing musket from the gray-haired vet
eran to the boy of sixteen. Grouped around
him was small band, to whom age and debil-
ity had left no available weapons save faith and
prayer One other group must not be forgot
ten---the mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters
of those men upon the common, who remained
clustered around the meeting house door,
watching with breathless interest the move
ments of their friends. Love, PRIDE anxiety,
hope and faith, then lit up their excited fea-
lures, but, trow, was little cowardice there.
The old minister's heart glowed within him at
the sight of the resolute, deterinined-looking
faces before him, as they proceeded to choice
of officers The subordinate Offices could read
lily be filed who should lead them to face dan
ger and death? Who should be their captain
Who so worthy to do this as he who had stood
by them in all times of trial and sorrow ?-he
who already aided them to fight the good fight
of faith, their spiritual teacher and friend,
whose moral and physical courage was un-
daunted ?--and, with one accord, they named
the Rev. Samuel Ellis.
The old man was much moved by this unex-
pected proof of esteem and confidence 1t was
the highest honor in their gift, and he fully ap-
preciated the compliment and responsibility.
| He had too much of the old puritan spirit in
him to decline, his heart was in the cause, and
in few apt but broken words he signifed his
willingness to stand by them in life and in
death. Then, beckoning the females to ad-
vance, he bowed his head and, like true Crom-
welian, called down the blessings of Heaven
on them and on their cause.
| This was the first company raised in our vii
lage; such was the spirit with which our fa-
theirs responded to the requisition of Washing
ton; and in justification of the wisdom of their
choice, let us admit that

TO A YOUNG P0ETESS.
By Z. s. poNono.


Through many summers have walked the way,
Which opens now so beautiful to thee;
And still my onward heart Is proud and gay,
And still delightful visions whisper me,
That even to the last such joy shall be:
For poetry is all path Of flowers,
Brighter and brighter, to the angel bowersi
And thou, fair maiden, who wouldst walk therein,
Whose timid feet have entered even now,
Advance /! and Disregard the silly din t
Whercwth the world would shame thy holy VOW
Yet do not scorn the world, but thou
Return them good for evil, till they know
1t was not well to grieye thy spirit 50!
Whoever loreth verse, then loveth truth
Whoever loveth truth, and may express
Her immortality of glorious youth
In music-fUwing words of tenderness,
Shall sun-like shine DER all, and stn-like bless
The world, through every cloud, shall see the light
And hail its progress up the heavenly height.
Not for day Is verse, but for all time;
Not for nation, but for all the Earth
Not for the great alone, whose front sublime
Bears the grand diadem of kingly birth,
But for him also deemed Of little worth.
II is thy universal language, Love,
Wherewith thou Winneth souls to bliss aboye

Rsas" A singular instance Of the mode in
which judicial penalties are carried into effect
in Prussia is announced in the Berlin papers.
The editor of democratic journal was recently
condemned to four months imprisonment; but
pleading i'll health as an excuse for submitting
to the penalty, it was decreed that he should be
examined by the Medical Superintendent of
Prisons, DR.. Casper, who made his report,
whereupon it was decided that the condemned
person should submit to a system of alienation
of prison and freedom-that is, he is to go into
and remain in Jail four days, and then come out
for eight days, and so on until the whole period
of four months Imprisonment shall be made
