The blood that flowed at Lexington, and Grim
sOued bright Champlalu,
Streams still along the Southern Gulf and by
the Lakes Of Alaue
Ii flows in veins that swell above Pacifie's
golden sands,
Aud throbs in hearts that love and 2rievc by
dark Atlantc's strand.
Ii blends in one vast brotherhood the trapper
OF the West
With men whose cities glass themselves in
Erle's classic bleasl:
From where Columbia langhs 10 greet the
smiling western wave,
To where Potomac signs beside the Patriot
hero's grave;
Aud fromthe streaming everglades TO lluron's
iordIy flood
The glory OF the natiou's past thrills through
Il Kindred blood!
Wherever Amold's tale is told it dyes the
cheek with shame,
And glcws with pride DER Bunker Hill or
MouIlrie's wider fame;
i is a sacred legacy ye never can divide,
Nor take from village urchin, nor the SON Of
city pride
Nor the hunters whitc-haired children who
find IL fruitful home
Where nameIe,s lakes are sparkling, and
where lonely rivers roa,n
GREEN drew his sword at Eulaw and bleed
inc Southern feet
Trud the march across the Delaware amid
the srow and ,loel:

That with ,lc lGe dumb nder answered him.
Nuu could have heard
The beating Of your pulses while he spoke.n
And when his hour expired, such wonders
had he wrought in the minds of his hearers,
that the cry of $50 on 60 on" was heard
throughout the immense assembly. The
orator proceeded for more than an hour
longer and at the conclusion of his addres,
took up collection for the Colonization
Society. Those who so recently were rea-
dy to tear him to pieces, now rushed ca
gerly forward to contribute in aid of the
great cause. The collection of that day
was the largest received by DR.. Bascom il
any city Of the south, with the single excep'
ton of the city of Nashville.

After this DR.. Bascom delivered address

After this DR.. Bascom delivered address
ses at a number Of villages in louisiana. He
was accompanied to these places by the
gallant knight, Mr.. Dawson, who seemed
TO take delight in such adventures. 'Wher-
| ever he went he met with bitter opposition.
| The whole country seemed to be on fire.
AT St. Francsville Mir. Dawson discovered
that plot had been formed by few reck-
less characters to waylay DR.. Bascom on his
Journey from that place. But this did not
lnilmldate either Of these fearless Spirits
Preparing for the emergency, theY openly
set out on their Journey, and reached their
| destination unmolestpd.
But it is unnecessary to follow the noble
missionary OF colonization further in his
travels. | consider his achievements in
this cause as emitting him 10 a wreath of
glory asunading as any that ever enclrcled
the brow ofthe conqueror or the statesmen.
For, Notwithstanding the fiery opposition
he encountered throughout the south, wher-
ever he could obtain hearing, his genius
and bis eloquence were triumphant.
cts thus the spirit Of n single mind
Makes that Of multi uics take one direction,
As rolls the waters to the breathing wind"
have thus briefly aud imperfectly
sketched few incidents Of the life of this
great and good man, IN the hope that their
perusal may interest and benefit the reader.
These incidents are derived from unques-
tionabIe authority; and | am sure that they
fully sustain ihe high estimate that has been
placed upon. the genius and character of
Dir. Bascom. lie was a true man and a
true Christian. He nobly performed his
duty while he was permitted TO live, and
finally received the embraces of the king
OF terrors With the calm serenity of an un-
falterlng faith. He is gone forever from
the field of his earthly abors, but the innu-
ence of those labors will never perish He
is gone, but he is not dead; for
''Cau that mau be dead
Whose spiritual influence is upon his knd'
lie lives IN glory; and his speaking dust
Has more OF lite than half its breathing mould"

THE Cow TREE On the parched side oi
rock in Venezuela grows a tree with dry
and leathery foliage, in large woody roots
scarcely penetrating into the ground For
several months in the year the leaves are
moisteued by shower its branches look as
if they were dead and withered f; but when
the trunk is bored, bland and nourishing
milk flows from it. 1t is at sunrise that the
vegetable fountain flows freely, At that time
the blacks and natives are seen coming from
all parts, provided with bowls TO receive the
milk, which grows yellow and lhickens at It's
surface. Some empty their vessels on the
spot, while others carry them to their chill
dren.

EGGs WHICH ARE EGGs.-An English paper
contains the following notice of recent egg.
iraoinary discovery in Madagascar
Some time since the discovery of gigantic
eggs III Madagascar was spoken of Three
OF these eggs have arrived al Paris, one bro
ken on the route, the others whole and Nj.
Geotiroy Saint liilaire had laid them before
the Academy OF Sciences. They are of very
different shapes, one being eliptcal, the.
other having lis two ends unlike each other.
They are about thirteen inches in diameter
the long way and nine The short in circnm-
ference about thirty INCHES one way and
twenty-five the other. The shell is one
eighth Of an inch thick, and contains abont
!! gallons, or as much as 1875 hens eggs, 15t
rondor's eggs and - osrich's egg. Mr.. ST.
dIlaire has decided, from the examination of
