Mr.. EDITOR Why should speak to you,
when lave taken my old gray goose quill
to commune with dreamy CLARIBEL MAY.
CI.AHr-- Allow snc to call you CLAIR, those
abridged names arc so soft, so tender. There
is a gcntcness, and homc-like sweetness
about them, which breaks down the strong
larri,rs that keep our spirits within them
selves. making strangers of us ALL To be
happy We must he familiar: for there is no
good thing on this earth, no happiness among
mortals here below, that is not shared with
others.
But let me resume. CLARI, the Autumn is
upon lis now, and like ranbows the woods
are frightened under the touch Of the Frost
king. The flowers arc fading over TrEnEsA'S
grave, the green hillock is turning brown,
and ere long the snow and scet of chill ,
drcary winter will be hcapcd high above that
once warm. tllrobbng bosom. But
TO mute and to material things,
New life revolving summer brings;
The genial cal dead Nature hears.
And i'll her glory re-appoars"'
And thus, like the flowers that cnlvcn and
bcauiify the landscape, our spirits, yielding
to the touch of the destroyer, shrink away
from earth, not to be returned again after a
night of trlbulation, like the gay messenger
OF spring; but passing through the dark val
ley OF the shadow of death, ascend divtst of
their earthly incumbrans, into Celestial
sphere be side whose living light the sun is
darkness, and whose peace is more serene
than twilight's hour.
The good die FIRST It's said, Clari and have
you not marked how moulnfully true is the

ODSrRrI TING A RAILROAD FREAK
-PRuvlDENCE, Oct. 3.-.An old man named
LYMAN Ilaw,s committed strange freak to-
day, viii h caused 10 SNAIL excl cnent. He
erected a house Of boards on both tracks of
the Providence and Worcester Railroad, and
placed within the same y kcg Of powder and
then mailing himself in the house, swore that
if tive trains attempted to run through the
lu ding he would blow all to atoms. Ills
wild and determined threats and the ubstruc-
ton CAUSED Il detention Of two hours to the
aims but finally crowd Of about one thou
sand persons assembled and smashed in the
door Of the building and seized Halves and
dragged him to Jail. -.
The pole. speedily demolished the house,
and the trains passed ON. The excitement
was so great that it was with difficulty the
p ollc were deferred from imiuring Halves.
Tie reason given for the strange freak is that

self chiefly as the vindicator and restorer of an
enfeebled and decayed nationality, but in doing
SO it fatally mistakes the basis and character
of the American people. 1t SEXES hold of a
narrow and sectional patriotism; ii maintains
the primogeniture of first settlers. 1t arrogates
the prerogatiyes of certain dominant race, AMI
calls all this Americanism. Young America ac-
cording to the prevailing ideal type, is a brawny
aud braggadocio youth, with Colts revovers in
his belt and bowie knife in his bosom, ready, at
moments warning to shoot Mexican, mob an
IrishmaD, or larrup niger.
Now the truth is that the American nationality,
which this new school of statesmen have under
taken to reinstate is thing of ideas solely, aud not
thing of races. 1t is neither Eugish, nor Irish,
nor Dutch, nor French; it is not Puritan nor Cav
alier; il is not North nor South our nationality is
our self government, our system Unpopular liberty
and equallaw. The man " no is mbued with gen.
uiLe democracy, who believes that a rational lib
eriy has no other restraint or limit than that i'm
posed by righteous and selfenacted laws, is in his
very hearts core American, though he first LAM led
from an emigrsst ship this mornings while the
aristocrat, the tyrant, the fllibustering slave
holder, the demsgoeue plOtter against the lber-
ties of the people is an alien and a foreigner,
though native American blood has flowed in his
veins since the first Pilgrim child was born in the
colony Of Plymouth. That noble old philosopher
and patriot Paul, had just conception of what
constituted true nationality, as ii regarded his own

than Douglas and Petit, because they are better

Applying terms in any other sense than this,
nothing is more untrue TO the whole spirit and
