POETICAL.
my OWN PRESIDE.

Let Others seek for empty joys,
At ball, or concert, rout, On play;
Whilst, far from fashions idle noise,
Her glided domes, and trappings gay,
l while the wintry eve away
'Twixt book and lutte, the hours divide;
And marvel how e'er could stray
From thee-my own Fireside!
My own Preside! Those simple words
Can bid the sweetest dreams arise;
Awaken feelings tenderest chords,
And fill with tears Of JOY my eyes!
What is there my wild heart can price,
That doth not in thy sphere abide,
Haunt of my home bred sympathies.
My own-my own Preside!
A gentle form is near me now;
A small white hand is clasped in mine;
gaze upon her placid brow,
And ask what joys can equal thine!
A babe whose beauty's half divine,
In sleep his mothers eyes doth hide;
Where may love seek filter shrine.
Than thou-my own Fireside?
What care for the sullen roar
Of winds without that ravage earth;
Itdoth but bid me prise the more
The shelter of thy hallowed hearth
To thought Of quiet bliss give birth!
Then let the churlish tempest chide,
It cannot check the blameless mirth
That glads my own Preside!
My refuge ever from the storm
OF this worlds passion, strife and care;
Though thnnder-clouds the sky deform,
Their fury cannot reach me there.
ThereraIl is cheerful. calm and fair.
Wrath, Malice. Envy, Strife or Pride,
Hath never made its hated lair,
BY thee-my own Preside!
Thy precinctsare charmed ring,
Where no harsh feelings dares intrude;
Where life's vexations lose their sting;
Where even grief is half subdued;
And Peace, the halcyon loves to brood.
Then, let the pampered fool deride,
I'll pay my debt of gratitude
To thee-my own Preside!
Shrine of my household deities!
Fairscene Of my homes unsullied joys!
To thee my burthened spirit flies,
When fortune frowns, or care annoys;
Thine is the bliss that never clogs;
Thesmile whose truth hath oft been tried;
What then, are this worlds tinseltoys
To thee--my own Fireside?
Oh, may the yearnings, fond and sweet.
That bid my thoughts be all of thee,
Thus ever guide my wandering feet
To thy heart-soothing sanctuary!
Whate'er my future years may be;
Let JOY or grief my fate betide;
BE still an Eden bright to me,
MY own-MY OWN FiREsIDE!

Results of the Bazaar.

The Anti-Sluvery Bazaar closed in this
city on Tuesday evening last. The last four
days proved TO lie extremely unpropitious
us TO the state Of the weather, which must
have considerably affected the pecuniary re-
suit. We are happy to state, however, that,
with all these difficulties and drawbacks that
attended the exhibition, the amout realized
was not less than FoUR TnoUsAND DOLLARS,
being an advance of several hundred dollars
beyond the proceeds of last yenr. An Off
cial account of it will be speedily prepared,
and laid before our readers, who, on both
sides of the Atlantic, nre eager to receive
the particulars. On Monday Evening, elo-

hwF The doctrine of higher law had been
condemned in this country, No law higher
than the Baltimore Platform and the Fugitive

higher than their own. He thought the object
sought most commendable one-he would be
glad that all nations should be taught that there

The Accident.

We have fuller details of the sad railway
catastrophe in New Hampshire.
Only Que passenger car was attached to
the train, which contained about sixty per-
sons. When near Lawrence, (in conse-
qnence ns is said of frost in the ron.) one OF
the wheels broke, aud instantly dashed il
off the track, and down an embnnknenl
some twenty feet. The car broke ia the
middle, and wns turned end for end.
General Pierce and family were some five
seats from the forward end of the car Nei-
ther he, nor his wife, were hurt much, pbysi-
cally. They eXtricuted themselves from the
wreck, and the father proceeded to look for
his hoy, not dreaming of his fate.
Young Pierce lay upon the floor, and the
moment his father reached aud had lifted his
cap from his head, he knew all. al am
childless," he said. The little fellows hend
was crushed, aud his cap was filled with
blood.
Mrs. Pierce was almost frantic, and her
"agony sad to behold" She sOaght to en-
brace the body of her son, but passenger
prevented that, when she was taken to n
house near by, and cared for.
Eight passengers were injured, some Of
them tatally.-True Democrat.

" Won't be Responsible"

The following characteristic and rather
ludicrous sceEe, is described in the Southern
Baptist. One of our exchanges says it occur
red in Kentucky.
"Alter bapIizing some six or eight willing
and proper subjects, Brother Thomns came
out of the water, when he was told 10y the
mistress of girl who had been received by

and as hc led the candidate IN the water,
the man to whom she wns hired was seen
riding mp with his child in his arms, nppar-
emily much incensed. When they had
reached about the middle of the strenm, he
exclaimed, MIR. Thomas, forbid that, sir
aud continued TO repeat, ! forbid il, SIR
about as fast as he could articulate, for q
number of times, how many would not
undertake TO say. Brother T. stood, cool
and calm, while the crowd was somewhat
astounded. The npprehensions Of some
were excited for the safety of his child;
while others may have considered Brother
T.. in some danger. In reply to his prohibit
ton, Brother 1homns told him he was di-
rccted 10y her owner TO hapiize her, but hc
contenGcd she belonged to him, as 'he had
hired her for this senson' Brother Il. asked
what he should do, and her master, who was
standing OH the hank, aud not member of

went on up the stream, while the brethren
sung that beautiful aud appropriate hymn,

The 81. Louis htelIigeneor, referring to the
since, that the hired girls at Pittsburgh, had
sent home $4,000 to their relations in tho
Old Country within the six months previous,
states that, within twelve months, the emil
grants from Ireland in ST. Louis have purchased
and transmitted home $4,000. These kitch-
en- girls, be it remembered, arc of the class
whose condition is frequently declared to be
worse than that of tho Slaves. Imagine the
sums of money that the people of color at the
North would send to their relatives in slavery
to help them out Of bondage, If there were no
impcdiments or perils to bo encountered more
than exist in the csse Of the poor Irish girls
and their kindred Pa. freeman.
