Could you should you?
If you Owned "the woman" would you?
Little labor, little strife,
Little care and little cot;

Fond hearts throbbing for you there;
Tell me would you ask for more?

Mr.. Tappan, of the University of Mich
igan, is now travelling in Europe, from whence
be writes letters descriptive OF the scenes and
men he meets. He thus notices his visit to
Alexander Humbnlt:
With respect to the men, none affected me
more, or could affect me more than the world
renowned sage, Alexander llumbolt, who
kindly invited inc to private interview. He
has spent his fortune and his life in the cause
OF science.-Time which has laid upon him
the weight of more than four score years, seem
not to have diminished the vigot of his mind,
or to have cooled the ardor OF his devotion to
knowledge and truth. He has survived the
possibility of human weakness. while he re-
iains the freshness Of oil his great accomplish
ments. lie now may be looked at as an un-
impeachable xample.-And what does his
example teach us? Is it not that gifts of for
tune and position are bat secondary to the
gifts Of mind and the acquisition of knowledge:
that to live for the true and the good-to live
for humanity-is the highest wisdom and dig
nifty, and the only certain earthly immortai-
I ty? Be inspired by such an example, and
forget not the claims which your country and
mankind have upon your best services.

No man has said more wise and witty IL
dings than the Reverend reviewer and essay
isi, Sidney Smith. Here is one of his teach
ings on Moral Courage:
Learn from the earliest days to inurc your
principles against the peril of rlicule; you
can no more exercise your reason if you live
in the constant fear of laughter, than you can
enjoy life if you are in the constant fear of
death. If you think it right to differ from
the times, and to make point of morals, do
it, however rustic however antiquated, howev-
er pedanlic, it may appear; do it not for inso-
lence, but seriously and grandly-as a man
who wore soul Of his own in his bosom. and
did not wait till it was breathed into him by
the breath Of fashion,"

Joaquin,s Head in San Francisco

Messrs Black and Nutall, of Harry Loves
Rangers, arrived in San Francisco from Stock
ton recently bringing with them the head of
this renown bandit, whose countless deeds OF
blood have earned for him name unparalleled
in the history of crime. The astonishing ce-
lerity of his movements snd the number of
his confederates, spreading murder and rapne
over vast extent of territory, have given rise
to so many reports fhis presence, al the same
time, in different parts of the country, some
times far distant from each other that some
persons have come to regard him as a Great
ure Of imaglnation-a myth-to whom the
evil deeds of many real maefactors have been
enormously attributed. Even since his cap
ture, rumors have come of his being in the
Southern counties of this State, carrying on
his usual system of wholesale butchery and
robbery. But Messrs Black and Nuttall bring
with them affdavits and certificates from per-
sons who knew him well, which leave no doubt
of the identity of the horrid evidence Of his
death. AS soon as a suitable place for the
purpose can be procured, the head and the
proof of its identity will be exhibited to the
public, in order that all may see and Judge Tor
themselves. The present object of the Ran
gers is TO obtain the rewards which have been
offered all over the country for the capture or
death of this dreaded william, and which they
have so well earned by the hardships and dan
gers they have undergone in pursuing him in
to his mountain fastness, in the midst of his
desperate gang, and the galantry they dis
played in the conflict in which he expiated
his horrld deeds by an awiul death. The par
ticuars of his pursuit and capture have al
ready been published throughout the country
and are doubtless familiar to all. The head

Cold words to fall on loving heart-he

sert him? This is the time to taunt him with
words that roll like lava from your passions
and only scar his soul? No! he passes un-

Many true heart that would have come
back like the dove to the ark, after its frat
transgression, has been frightened beyond re-
call By the angry look and menace-the taunt
the savage charity Of an uniorgiving soul. Be
careful how you freeze the first warm emo
tons of repentance. Beware, lest those plea
ding words, unheeded now, sting you in some
shadowy valley of your future sorrow. Re-
pentance changed by neglect or unkindness,
becomes like melted iron hardened in the

Wipe the tear from his eye--pour the balm
of consolation on the wounds that guilt has
