AND THEIR JUBILEE FOR RETURN OF LIFE
''We still Live"
Alas! what pity, to see the Brothers fall,
And none to know and feel the sore lament;
What pity that their hearts have ceased to beat;
And they no more can live to invent
just change the scenes and feel the public pulse,
That beats in tones of thunder loud,
For art by them, in truth displayed:
Look in their rooms, and see the daily crowd
That throng to test the Brothers, skill,
Which shows each day the work performed.
They need no help from the Quibbier--sti

And figured much to show his meanest habit;
Shout he have his full deserts, he must be proud
To own his truthful ,iame--''Mr. Grabbitt."
Let him rave and tear, let him weep and wall;
We've nailed our banner to the mast
We've launched our boat and set our sail,
And shall defend it to the very last.
We've understood, and lament the truth to say.

CHARLES SUMMERS SPEECH. The COM
mendations bestowed upon this mastery pro-
dnction, come to us from every quarter. We
select the following from among them, as
coming from one who has heretofore mani
tested the prejudice against him, which is so
common among those who do not belong to
the same political organization he does. 1t is
from the Washington correspondent Of the
New York Times:
Senator Sumner to-day turned upon the
Slaveocracy, and rebukea their personal and
aggravated assaults upon him, with matchless
eloquence and power. 1t would be difficult
to say too much for this noble effort, and it is
impossible to convey an adequate idea of its
beauty and strength. 1t was listened to with
profound attention. Even the subjects of his
whitening rebuke seemed fascinated by the
charm which the Senator used for their
scourging, and l have heard no one to night,
no matter what his own sentiments are, who
does not concur in pronouncing Mr.. Summers
speech one of the very best Of the session.
This able, triumphant vindication, which COW
cred the assailants with confusion, told with
the more effect because it was unexpected. 1t
had been supposed that Mr.. Sumner would
submit quietly to any indignity that might be
heaped upon him; but the people, doubtless,
when they read his speech, will acknowledge
that he held in reserve, and knew when and
how to use weapons of defence far keener
than the bowie-knife, and far more certain
and fatal than the duelists rife; and his
countrymen will honor the moral courage that
enabled him to bear unfinchingly all the cruel
taunts of his misreckoning assailants, until
the time had arrived for drawing the arrows Of
Truth.
Every man, woman, and child, should read
the speech the Senator from Massachusetts,
and the old Bay State should find some new
laurel with which to crown the brow of her
gifted son for this days work. l have not
been accustomed to praise the Senator who is
now my theme; but that heart must be cold
and that judgment lamentably distorted which
could withhold from Mr.. Sumner his we'll
earned tribute for to-day's acquittance.

Alas! alas! says Tom to Bill
My heart is broke, my pulse is still;
For everywhere boar them say,
That our friend Babhitt hath-a way
OF making better Pictures there,

And, as they say, his trade is great,
He sells them cheap, and makes first rate;
And so the customers-they flock
To Rabbits rooms, in Piper Block;
For in this age, the folks are wise. m
And can't be duped by fatterng lies.
Alas! alas! says Bill to Tom,
We've been insulted--we're undone;
For every day often hear,

For which we tried, but we did fail.

Wen spare no pains, though we lack brains,
Our souls are ean--we must be mean,
And so we'll write a little mite--of Postry.
Now Tom and Bill, fret as you will,
You'll always find, the choicest kind,
The largest stock--at piper's Block,
Of cases rare, that make you stare
My goods III sell, at rates that tell,
