1t is stated by Mr.. Nolan in his ..His-

l4.h Dragons received a sword wound
al The battle of Ramnugger, in India,
from the effects of which he died. IL
seems that a Sikh, on foot. crouched
under a shield, and Gu, at him from be-
ilnd. The sword was used with such
power and skill as to expose the spinal
marrow, and enter the skull at the same
time. As a further illustration of The
skill of the Sikhs in the use Of this
weapon. Capt. Nolan says: "a huge
dragoon was found quite dead. His
head had dropped forward from a Gu, on
the back Of the neck, which had severed
the spine, and at this very action, i. is
said that whilst our poor fellows labored
in vain to draw blood, a touch from the
Sikh's sword across the arm or leg left
the bold Engllshmen at their mercy, and
they soon hacked them TO pieces. One
officer, who was in the campaign, said
he saw an English dragoon putting his
hands to the reins to Try and turn his
horse, when a native horseman, dropping
his sword across them, took off both
hands above the wrist. A Sikh, after

How beautiful is woman
In her right and proper sphere,
Fulfilling her high mission,
With heart and brow sincere;
With strong and steady purpose
To guard the rightfrom wrong,
And fill the whole creation
With The glory Of her song.
IT'S not mid fields of carnage,
Nor where wild factions rise,
Mid the clang of politicians,
That a woman's glory lies;
Nor in the learned professions,
All tending day by day,
To scar the finer feelings,
That a gentle woman may
Complete her sacred duty:
But by the mourner's side,
To whisper consolation
And when mems souls are tried,
To comfort and encourage
With words of holy cheer,
And send them forth to conquer,
With minds more firm and clear.
IT'S hers to train the youthful mind,
In virtues holy way;
To call the erring mortal back,
Whose feet have gone astray;
To smooth the furrowed brow of care,
And watch till stars grow dim,
Beside the fevered couch of pain
With low and earnest hymn
To make the shades of sorrow seem,
By christian meekness bright,
A blessing in diguise,
To lead unto celestial light.
lis hers TO teach her sons to grace
Our legislative halls,
And in their wisdom ready stand
To meet their country's calls:
And thus she guides the helm of State,
And thus she wields the power,
To make a prosperous, happy land,
Which is her rightful dover.
Then what can woman wish for more /?
why doth her spirit pine,
For things more bright, when all the world
Is bending at her shrine?
Bends at her sacred shrine Of love,
Receives of her the prize,
That makes them lovely on the earth,
And leads them to the skies.
Oh, wake thou woman from thy dream!
Oh, ask not for a place,
That in possession will but mar
Thy spirits every grace;
VIII Danish from thy feeling heart,
All placid happiness,
And leave thee in a dreary land,
OF dark and sad unrest.
