FASHIONED eIoquence -
Il TRUE LOVERS soLILoQUY.
A wanderer from my distant home,
From those W no blest me with their love,
With bound ess plains beneath my feet,
And foreign skies my head above
look around me sternely here,
And smother fee ing, strong and deep,
While DER my brow are gath'ing dark
The thoughts that from my spirit leap.
| think of her whose bosom sweet
Has pilowcd oft my aching head:
Whose eye would brighten at my voice,
Whose ear was quick to know my tread.
think of her, the fondly loved,
Whose heart and soul have mixed with
mine
Till life had nothing more to give
Yet asked of heaven no boon divine;
OF her whose fi,ful fate held.
AS Heaven doth hold trembling star;
Whose smiles were mine, whose tears were
mine,
And hopes and joys to make or mar.
] think of joys which saw US laugh,
! think Of hours which made us weep,
or dark arrangements unexplained.
LecauseS WEaPt III my lefy ueeP.
think how brightly beamed her glance,
How heaved her form with rapture wild,
When parted madly from her side,
She sought aud found me recunoiled.
Oh lovely one. that pines for me
How well she soothed each maddenine
thoc eht
And from the ruins of my soul
fair and bcauteous fabric wrought
Whose base was strong mistaken faith
The boon TO migh,ier spirits given.
Whose towering dome was human love,
That rose from earth and lived in Heaven
Oh. best beloved. that weeps for me
How oft beneath my spirits wing,
I've borne her through the worlds of thought
And showed her there each holy thing
Have caught the fire of themes sublime,
And wrapt her in that glorious light,
Till in her holiness of mind
She stood an angel in my sight
AT times, how beautiful she seemed.
When gazing in her eyes knew
How sweet the soul that dwelt within,
How true those orbs of melting blue.
How beautiful the hours with her
How full of deep empowering bliss,
When bo,oms that so iopei We're Joined,
And lips that thirsted for the kiss.
Unmindfu then of aught but joy,
Twas death to gaze and not to meet
All, all the same if fortune smiled,
Or ruin yawned beneath our feet
All, beautiful thrice beautiful!
Aud passion bound me in her thrall
In manhood's might before her shrine,
knelt me down and yielded all.
Then let it go-if have sinned,
Twas that my heart knew no CONTROL
When she, who called me to her arms,
Was first, was all that stirred my soul

Howard Pa yne.

At one time he became an enthu-
siast for the civilization of the lndi-
ans. He set out on a mission to the
Creeks and Cherokees, in Georgia and
Alabama. 1t was about the time of
the diff Guilty between the government
and the Greeks in relation to theirre-
moval. The excitement ran high,
and the State authorities had police
agents with their men, stationed "a

tween the whites and Indians was
cut off. At this unfortunate period,
Payne was found among the Creeks,
attempting to give them lessons Oh

arts. Although innocent of any i'm

e ated by pure and philanthropic mo-
tlves, he was, nevertheless, arrested
on suspicion. Lem Jackson, a sort
of half: horse half alligator, was cap

with heavy logs, something like a
wolf-pen of the early pioneers. He
protested his innocence, and begged
to be released, thalh he might return to
his sweet home But his appeal
moved not the stony heart Of Lem
Jackson and his semi civilized com
panions. They determined to hold
him till they found evidence. Night
came on. The watch fires blazed
brightly. The guard amused them
selves, first by playing cards and
then by singing. At last, Lem, who
was leader of the sports, struck up
"Home, Sweet Home" Payne could
bear it no longer. This was an at,

TRIUMPH OF AMERICAN SKILL IN ENG
LANp.--At the great Agricultural Ex-
hiDition for Bath and the West of
England, held at Plymouth on the sth
ult., Hussey's reaping machine, says
the Plymouth Mail, won the prize for
reaping, and by reclamation; and
when the president, Sir Thomas Ac-
land, Nj. p, proposed three cheers
for Mr.. Hussey, it was heartily res
pended to by thousands, and without
a dissenting voice. The judges
crowned his reaper with laurel, and
the stars and stripes waved in tri-
twenty five feet high over American
ingenuity and enterprise on English
soil.

ave have a communication from
an Indiana brother on" How to drive
Oxen" After having spoken in
terms of severe but proper condem
nation of the inhumanity shown by
many persons to brutes, he relates an
incident respecting a neighbor ofhis,
who was the owner of several yokes
of oxen, but whose hired man did
not particularly understand the best
method of managing them. One
day a number of the animals got
stalled in mud hole, and the hired
man got mad the first thing and beat
them roundly. Presently the owner
came along and tried his hand, first,
by rebuking the driver for getting
mad, and, secondly, by applying, with
mathematical precision, the eXtremi-
ty of the whip-lash to the hides of the
oxen. They, nevertheless, failed to
move the load from the hole, and the
good old man thought he would try
the effect of music. He began with
the words,
"And well march around Jerusalem" &c.
Continuing to sing, and marching all
the while around his team, presently
there was a movement. They pull.
ed, the load came, and the oxen were
soon on brisk gait to the desired
place. Try the experiment, We who
have animals to manage, and if il
does no good in your special case
certainly sit will do no harm
