Hark over Europe sounding

The fire has burst, the blow is struck,
A fatal deed is done
frO!o i.nrth IL south ii echoes, L
From cas-, to west af;lr, s3
Tn insulteh nations Join their heads,
And gather to the war.
From restless slumbcrs waking,
The thunder in her car,
Unhappy Poland starts to life,
And grasps her broken spear.
Old Ro"r grows young to hear it;
There's mischief in her glance
And Hungary mounts her battle s,ecJ
And waves her fiery lance.
Not long shall last the combat,
Though Russia laugh to scorn
The wrongful cause, if up to-day,
Is down Tomorrow morn.
When France unitcs with England, =
Beware defeat and shame,
Ye foes Of right who force the fight,
And fan the needless flame.
Hark over Eronpe sounding,
The first, the signal gun;
But when the loud last cannon peal
Shall tell Of victory won.
Be sure. ye proud aggrcssors,
Your hour shall not last long;
They may rot, can not, shall not win
Who battle in the wrong.

While was thus engaged in ncalling
upon God, the beast turned himself
completely round. On perccivipg this,
the Hottentot made an effort to get
from under him; but no sooner did the
creature observe his movement, than
he laid terrible hold of his right thigh.
This wound was drcadlully deep. and
evidently occasi"ncd the sufferer much
rxcruciating pain. He again sent up
his cry to God for help; nor were his
prayers in vain. The huge animal
soon after rclinquished quietly his prey,
though he had not been in the least in
terrupted. Having deliberately ,siscn
from his scat, he walked majcstically
"t, to distance Of llliry or forty PAGES,
and then lay down OH the grass, as if
Tor the purpose of watching the man.
The latter, being relieved most happily
from his load, ventured to sit up, which
circumstance Immediately attracted the
lions attention; nevertheless it did not
induce another attack, as the poor fel-
low naturally expected, but, as if be-
reft Of power, and unable to do any
thing more, he rose again, took his de.
parturc, and was seen no more. The
man, seeing this, took up his gun, and
FASTENED away to his terrified compan
ions, who had given him up for dead.
Being in n state of extreme exhaustion
from loss Of blood, he was Immediately
set upon his horseEand brought rs soon
as possible to the place where | found
him. Dr. Gaultcr, son of the Rev.
John Gaultcr, being stationed ut mil
itWy post in the ncighborlood, and
hearing the case, FASTENED to his re-
lief: and hasavery humancly rendered
him all necessary assistance ever since.
"Mr. Gaulter informs me, that, on
his arrival, the appearance of the
wounds was really alarming, and am.
putation Of the arm seemed absolutely
necessary. To this, however, the pa
tent was not willing to consent, having
number ofyoung children whose sup
Sistcncc depended entirely upon his Ia
bour. 'As the Almighty had deliver
cd me, said he, from that horrid death,
| Thought, surely he is able to save my
arm also;' and, astonishing to relate,
