A Noble Deed.

At fire in New York city on Tuesday,
at 33 Chatham street. a woman and three
children were in the second story Of the
building and the flames had got such head
way below that they were entirely cut of
from getting out of the room.
A cry was heard for "help, help, or !
shall perish!" In an instant the sound ech-
oed in the scene below among the brave
iremen, when the Captain of Empire Hook
and Ladder Company Phoenix like, rushes
through fire and smoke at the risk of his
own life, and to the "rescue." He was
lost for short time, and many hearts beat
quick for his safety with his prize. Blu!
soon they were at the top of the ladder, the
fireman, the woman with her three little
ones.
"All safe! !" shouted thousand voices
below, A noble deed; let all enemies Of the
fremen read the above. There is no class
of our citizens who are deserving of so much
praise and merit rs the firemen, and every
citizen should see that they have all the
rights and privileges in their organizations
which would tend to keep them comfortable
and happy.

In the evening, ere the children retired ia

by asking, How did you like the soft rosy

Evening and Death.

Death never appears more welcome
yisitant than in the evening, when, as Jean
Paul so sweetly says, the "dsy is dying
amid blossom clouds. and with its swan
sorg" Then even "the alleys and gardens
speak in low tones, like man when deeply
moved; and around the leaves fly the gen
lie winds, and around the blossoms the
bees, with tender whisper" as if afraid Of
disturbing the holy stiffness. AT such a
time only, the larks, like man, rise warbling
into the sky, and then like him, diop down
again into the furrow; while the great soul
and the sea lift themselves unheeded and
unseen to heave, and rushing streams, sub
lime and fruit giving and thunder showers
dash down the valleys. In such an hour,
the tone of tolling bell. which tells of the
dying, around whom the Last Angel has
drawn the shades Of night therein to sever
his heartstrings. as they bandage ones
eyes in the amputation of limb, seems
unspeakably sweet, and rises like a hymn
upon the air. 1t sounds as if Death itself
were flying down from Heaven as indeed it
is. with a song upon its lips, and singing
on with one continuous tone. of rapture,
hanging poised with open wings above the
earth, until the flowers should have sprung
up for its evening couch.
In the evening, Death comes gently, and
on its darkened battle. field no echo of the
receding earth can enter. Softly aud calm
ly, in the dim light. the angels fold about
the dying one the mantle of Eternal Love
gently they loose the silver cord. and Civ
ing Faith the helm of their tiny barque,
steer out upon the shadowy waters that
beat in the far distant. against tine very
gates of Heaven.
Death in the evening is beautiful; there
is in it then a poetry and eloquence that
speak to the heart like trumpet, and gar
land the soul Of sunshine. To be cherish
ed forever, as precious thing, is the mem
ory of those who die in the lap of the eve
ming.

~
A good deal is said Just now about re-
storing the Missouri Inc, and many persons
who really desire to restrain The encfoach-
ments Of Slavery seem 10 think that such q
measure would accomplish the purpose.
This we think is altogether mistake As
long as that Inc existed, there was nobody
at the North who thought Of disturbing. il.
! On our side we were willing to keep The
Compromise Of 1920 But The champions
Of Slavery, having had their pay In full un-
der that bargain, were determined 10 take
from us what we had paid them for, and by
the treachery Of our own representatives
our exclusive right TO our properly was ia
ken away. II was an net Of exceeding
wong. which has not only fuined tie Dem
ocraiic party. but will ruin every other party
that shall dare TO lend il even tacit sup.
port. II is an act that demands not the
simple revival Of the old line. but repara-
tdn broad and full enough TO satisfy the de-
ceived and outraged North, and allay the
indignant feeling Of the truly democratic
masses Of the free States. Such repara-
ton IS propozed in the following bill, intro
duced in the Senate last session, by Mr..
Chase, and now on the table Of that body:
BE it enacted by the Senate and House
of Representatives Of the United States of
nmefica in Congress assembled That
there shall be neither Slavery nor inyolun-
tary servitude, otherwise than in the pun
lshment of crimes. in any Territory Of tho
Uniteb States"
This is what should be done. and the least
that the rights of,he free Statep can be safe
with. In this simple sentence the true
ground is occupied. For the principle Of
this bill, tho ireemen of the North should
appear at the bar of Congress as unanimous
petitioners, No man. with free heart in
him. but would lend bis support to such
measure. and no time should be lost in
pouring the petitions in upon both Houses.

A New YORKER GONE TO THE Vans
The New York Sun says that gentleman
named Roosevelt, man Of wealth and stand
ing, it is reported on good authority, has
been in communication with the Czar for
the last four months, concerning the war
in the east, and agreeably to arrangements
made, sailed for ST. Petersburg, via Liver
pool, last Saturday, in the Baltic. Mr..
Roosevelt was lawyer in New York, but is
to be raised 10 Generalship. in the army
of Nicholas. He has been engaged for the
last two months 10 skstching the plan and
calculating the costs of campaign-all of
which are reduced TO paper and capable of
being rolled up into compass sufficiently
small to enable him to secrete it on his per-
son without fear of detection. There are
several persons of standing in this city who
are familiar with the plans, having got
their information from Mr. Roosevelt. They
state that it is the intention Of the Car, in
the spring, to open the campaign on the
most formidable foundation, and to carry
the war into Great Britain itself. On Sat-
urday, number Of the friends of Mr.. Ros-
evelt repaired to the Baltic with him. and
saw him safely off 1t is also stated that,
among the passengers of the Baltic, were
several other individuals who are bound to
Russia, each of them to take an active part
in the undertakings 10 take place in the
spring. So far as Mr. Roosevelt is concern
ed, there is no doubt Of the fact that he has
been engaged by the Gear. and that he
will enter upon his uties Immediately up
on his arrival.
