A BEAUTIFUL SENTIMENT.


"Out of the mouths of babes and suck
links, says the Bible, Thou hast ordained
praise" Who so reads the following, will
feel the force of the passage.
At an examination Of a deaf and dumb in
stitution some years ago in London, little
boy was asked in writing:
Who made the world?
He took the chalk and wrote underneath
the words:
In the beginning God created the heavens
and the earth. a rs
The Clergyman then inquired in similar
manner:
Why did Jesus Christ come into the
world
A smile of gratitude rested on the counte-
nance of the little fellow as he wrote:
"This is a faithful saying, and worthy oil
all occupation, that Jesus Christ came into
the world to save sinners"
A third question was then proposed evil
IDENTITY adapted to call the most powerful feel
ings into exercise;
"Why are you born deaf and dumb when
| can both hear and speak p
Never" said an eye witress "Shall | for
get the look of resignation which sat upon bis
countenance. when he again took the chalk
aud wrote;
Even so Father, for so it seemed good in
Thy sight"

Written for The Gaseue.

10 Ill,
OH | am happy in my dreams,
For thou art pictured there
Thine eye upon me softly beams,
And banishes despair!
Thy cherub mouth is wreathed in smiles,
Betok'ning inward joy;
Not such as mark the worldlings wiles,
But pure, without alloy!
Thy tones are witching melody,
That steal the soul away;
Now swelling high thy minstrelsy,
Like larks at opening day
Then sinking into softer strains
That breathe of love for me:
Nor as the mournful dove complains
In yonder withered tree;
But hopeful, joyful, happy notes,
That seem to me divine
As to mine ear the music floats,
1t whispers, II am thine -
Alas. alas tits but dream u
For thou art cold and proud
It's brightness is the transient CLEAN
That lights the summer cloud
Oh would that it were ever night;
Then l might happy be.
Hah thee, my life would e'er be bright,
Without thee, misery LUIS.

RIVAL CITIES.

New Haven and Hartford, Connecticut, are
rival towns. Here is specimen Of their ri
valry, copied from the New Haven Register
Hartford is always trying to outshine our

or day, one of the lady passengers in the cars
to this city was made mother in the ladies'

SAFETY OF SIR JOHN FRANKLIN,

From the Liverpool Mail A correspon-
dent has forwarded us the following extract
from letter received yesterday from Ireland.
He has every confidence in the source of bis
information bat we may remark that if the
writing is 10 reality that of Sir John, it is
strange that no publicity has been given to
the affair BY the authorities Of the Admiral
ty:
"Near Belmullet. August 10, 1853 You
will have heard, no doubt. that poor woman
picked up bottle close to this place, contain
ing letter from Sir John Franklin. dated
May last, stating that he is prevented by the
natives from leaving an island be is now on
the officer of the coast guard forwarded it to
the Admiralty, and has just heard that the
writing is that of Sir John, so there is yet a
chance Of bis being saved"
This is the last OF the many bottle" sto-
ries about Sir John Franklin and there is
no doubt, it is just as cruel hoax as its pre-
decessors. t..a

To my Mother, In her Extrem Illness.
My Mother oft has sorrow thrown
It's dark'ning shades Of misery
Around my youthful horizon,
Since first, prattler at thy knee,
learned to lisp my simple prayer,
That God would keep thee in his care
And those deemed most perfect here,
And loved as dearest, next TO thee
Have caused to start the bitt er tear, %
And changed to grief, my blissful glce
loved, and left them; and believed
They'd constan; be, but was deceived
Misfortune's frowns have lowered DER
My path, and hope has fed dismay'd

Have trusted friends, and been betrayed
But these were mirth, we're bliss, were gtee,
To that dark thought Of losing thee,

there is moderation in all things, and
the excess of anything is a surfeit.-
There is no moderation in our people,

THE INDEPENDENT RED Max
This is the name Of another order re-
Gently established in New Orleans
They paint their faces in lamp-black
to personate the 'Independent Red
Men" at the meetings.
We know not what kind ofoppression
has given rise to the ''Independent
order of Red Men," and must needs
think the name at least a misnomer.
Where is there on the Continent any
Independent Red Men? Have they
not been all treacherously lead into
the camp Of their enemies-seized
and inhumanly butchered like Oceola
Have they not been swindled out Of
their lands-driven from point I'd
point, murdered with poisoned fire
water and hunted with blood hounds
This is even 50. Then qOhere are the
Independent Red Men?
