PHANTOMS.
nv tONGFELLOW.


All houses wherein men have lived and died
Are haunted houses. Through the open door
The harmless phantoms on their errands glide,
With feet that make no sound upon the noor
We meet them at the doorway, on the stair,
Along the passage they come and go,
Impalpable impressions on the air,
A sense of something moving to and fro
There are more guests at table than the host
Invited, the Illuminated hall
Is thronged with quiet, inoffensive ghosts,
As silent as the pictures on the wall.
The stranger at my fireslde cannot see
The forms see, nor hear the sounds hear,
He but perceives what is; while unto me
All that has been is visible and clear.
We have no title deeds to house or lands;
Owners or occupants of earlier dates
From graves forgotten stretch their dusty hands
And hold in mortmain still their old estates.
The spirit world around this world of sense
Floats like an atmosphere and everywhere
Watts thro' these earthly msts and vapors dense
A vital breath of more ETHEREAL air.
Our little lives are kept in equipose
By opposite attractions and desires;
The struggle of the instinct that enjoys
And the more noble instinct that aspires
The perturbations, the perpetual jar
OF earthly wants and aspirations high,
Come from the influence of that unseen star,
That undiscovered planet in the sky.
And as the moon, from some dark gate of cloud
Throws DER the sea a floating bridge of light,
Across whose trembling panks our fancies crowd
Into the realm Of mystery and night
So from the world of spirits there descends
A bridge of light connecting it with this
Ger whose unsteady floor that sways and bends
Wander our thoughts above the dark abyss.

THE VALUE OF AN OLD MAN IN CHINA.--The

| THE VALUE OF AN OLD MAN IN CHINA.--The
reasonabeness and placabity of the natives,
were, on one occasion, evinced in rather re-
markable manner at Chusan, while was there,
An Englishman had come across some wild
ducks in the canal inside the city, at which he
fred with ball. all his shot having been previous
! ly expended. The bullet missed the birds, and
glancing from the water, killed an old Chinaman,
who was sitting at his own door, enjoying his
pipe.
The unfortunate sportsman, horri6ed at the
result Of his silly thoughtlessness, hurried away
to take counsel with his friends, who recon-
mended him to try and settle the matter with
the relatives of the deceased, to prevent their
complaint from being laid formally before the au-
thorities. who would be obliged to award heavy
punishment for such reckless carelessness. With
this view, one of his friends was dispatched to
visit the family, to condole with them for their
loss, and to explain how thoroughly it was the
result of accident. He deplored the unhappy
circumstance which had deprived the family of SO
valuable and so respectable member, and point
ed out the cheering fact that he was very old,
and, in the natural course Of things, could not
have been expected to live much longer, and
that pecuniary rccompense should be made to
console the family for the few months society
they might have anticipated enjoying with him.
They admitted that he was old, very old, and as
he could not have lived long, they mentioned a
hundred dollars as a sum likely to have good
effect in assuaging the bitterness of their alic-
ton.
The ambassador, delighted at hearing de-
mand so much more reasonable than he anticipa-
ted, but concealing his satisfaction, pointed out
that the deceased was SO old that he could hard
ly have estimated his short remnant of existence
at such large sum; that he had died very
quiet and easy death, and that very likely he was
wanted in the other world, so that the unlucky
bullet might be esteemed messenger despatch
ed by the gods. He thought, therefore, that fif-
ty dollars, to make feast, and burn plenty of
joss-tick and paper money, would be sufficiently
satisfactory to the spirit of their departed ances.

CIRCUMsTANTIAL EvIDENcE.--The Brunswick
Telegraph states that on the 2Sth ut., two
young men were arrested in that town on a
charge of having murdered lad named Roscoe
Colson 1t seems that on the evening of the 10Th
the three were together at the "Old Boom
House," and an alteration ensued between the
young men and Colson, which ended in Colson's
leaving the house little after midnight, threat
ening" to bring somebody to take care ofthem.'
He was followed in few minutes by the Young
men, and was not heard from again for some
weeks. In the mean time it was rumored that
outcres had been heard in that vicinity on the
night in question, and report was spread that
articles belonging to the lad had been seen in
possession of one of the alleged murderers-
The two were accordingly arrested on suspicion,
and held for examination. Fortunately for them
however, the supposed deceased made his ap-
pearance alive and well, in season to be present
on the occasion. He stated as a reason for his
absence, that after their quarrel he had proceed
ed to Bath where he found employment, and re.
mained, quite ignorant of the unpleasant suspi.
cions to which his departure had given rise.

To THE AMERICAN PUBLIc.-Wrested a Sec
ond time from the tiger grasp of the Austrian
tyrant, owe my liberation mostly to the gener-
Gus will of the people of the Union, who, awak-
ening to the consciousness of their providential
mission and destiny, seem determined to protect
those bound to their fate by the voluntary oath
of allegiance. To this generous will, which has
inspired the acts of those entrusted with the
executive power, and which found its real manly
expression in the heroic soul Captain Ingraham.
On touching again the shores of America,
feel it my first duty to give a feeble expression
of that gratitude which cherish in the inner.
most of my heart toward all those who have
taken active or even sympathizing part in that
extraordinary case, on which the American eagle
for the first time loosed its thunderbolt for the
protection Of the weak for human and nterna-
tiona right. Being only an accidental cause of
this international event, which has saved me,
my gratitude, even the most ardour, can be only
of little value TO the American people; but the
hope, admiration and sympathy of nations long
ing for liberty, and on the other hand, the con-
fusion and fear of presumptuous and wanton
despots, is reward noble in its sources, lasting
in its efficacy, and worthy of a people of sove-
reigns" ro
