II have passion for the name Of Mary byron.
Mid names Of grace and beauty, Of high and low
degree,
Of love, and faith and duty the sweetest one you'll
II Mary: for there fingers charm around it still
That times corroding fingers dare not touch chill
It is the poets dreaming, his belle ideal warm,
When thought, like stars cleaning, to weave his
kindiing charm;
tits the crown that clusters lovely wonans head
1t is name whose lustres no other name can shed.
Saviour's mother bore it, the purest of her kind;
And Scotas queen, she it, the beautiful rein d
And Burns made all immortal the lass he casped by
Ayr,
Now passd through heavens portal his angel lover
there
Song has embalmed in story her brightest Of that
name,
And history in glory has proudly writ the same
Like talsman it thrills us with deeply hidden power.
Like Natures charms it fills US, and sanctfes the
hour!
There visions of childhood that brings us back
young JOY,
But link'd with each sweet vision, some Mary lives
again,
Fair as form elysian, dear seraph's strain!
had Mary! listen, a rosebud in it, bloom
For me her eyes would glisteh-and chase away all
gloom;
For me her songs were pouring from morn to starry
night,
A salient fountain soaring Of unalloyd delight
She was my richest pleasure, my hope for future days.
Ny never failing treasure, in myriad winning ways:
feel her arms around me. her kisses on my cheek
moment they have crown'd me memory could
speak,
Not here art thou, my angel, thy spirit would not
stay,
But rose the blessed evangel, where sister Marys
stray;
And thus love, faith, and feeling with true links do
bind,
That name SO dear appealing forever in my mind!

THE DEAD CAR.

Lay him beneath his SHOWS,
i he great Norse-gia who in these last days
troubled the nations Gather decently
his emperor's robes about him. 'Tis but man
This demi-god. Or rather it tras man.
1t ls-a little dust; that will corrupt
AS fast as any nameless dust that lies
Meath Alna's grass or Balaklava's vines
No vineyard grave for him No quiet bones
By river margin laid, where Ger far
10 chlldren's prayers and women's memories come,
Lake angels, and sit by the sepulchre,
saying: "AI these were men who knew no count,
Eront.taced, the cost of honor, nor did shrink
!Tt from Its full payment; knowing how to die,
But this man :! All for hin
Pale solemn state, church chaunting funeral grand,
dff 1 ne stoney-wombed sarcophagus, and then
No-oblivion were renown
10 that fierce howl which rolls from land to land
EExultmg: Art thou fallen, Lucfer,
Son of the Morning?' Or condemnng "Thus
Perish the wicked'' Or blaspheming: " Here
Lles our BeShazzar, Sennacherib,
Our Pharaoh-he whose heart God hardened,
90 that he would not let the people go.''
S:lf-glorifying sinners! Why, this man
Was but as other men /; you, Levte small,
Who shut your salnted ears and prate of hell,
" When, outside church-doors, congregations poor
Praise Heaven in their own way ; you, Autocrat
Of all the hamlet, who add field to field,
And house to house, whose slavish children
before your tyrant footstep or you, fierce
Fanatic, and ambitious egotiSt
Who think God stoops from his great universe
o lay his hnger On your puny head,
And crown it, that you hencetorth loud parade
Your maggotship through all the wandering world:
" | am the Lords annointed!'
Fools and blind
This Czar--ths Emperor-this dethroned corpse,
Lying so straightly, in an icy calm
GraEder than sovereignty, was but ye;
n better, and no Worse--Heaven mend us all!
Carry him forth and bury him-Deaths peace
Be on his memory; Mercy by his bier
Sits silent; or says only in meek words;
tLet him who is without sin 'mongst you all,
Cast the first stone''

The War.

The annexed brief remarks from the Journal OF
commerce appear 10 us to have much of the force OF
truth. and just appreciation of the inadequacy OF
the causes which brought on Europe this great and
caiamltous war, the end whereof no man can under
take to predict
Let those who delight in war read the letter from
an American gentleman in Paris, which we copy To-
aay from the National Intelligencer He will there
Degln 10 see what terrible business war is. This
war between Russia and the Allies grew out of moth
lng 1T was the result of bad diplomacy and presump
uon Neither party expected to get into until
war was actually begun nor then did they ex-
Pect IT would long continue. Each rarty presumed
that the other would recede till they were mutually
involved beyond the hope of reconciliation At pre-
sent the cloud is darker and deader than ever
ne fearful boodshed the 18th June is, it is to be
feared but the beginning of the end. The failure of
the Allies on that occasion will only nerve them for
more heroic efforts and greater sacrifices if need be-
1t will also encourage the Russians to persevere in the
defence
Meanwhile II appears that the Russian Govern
ment is building railroad with all possible exped-
uon from Moscow to Perekop-a. E. 10 the isthmus
which connects the Crimean peninsula with the main
and-and hopes to have it completed in the ensuing
autumn She will then be able to send men, ammu-
milton, and provisions into the crimea almost without
limit. New forces of the Allies are also gathering
o that field OF Armageddon-that charnal house of
lattonsto supply the places of the fallen, and help
% sustain the new and dreadful conflicts which must
'e near at hand. Whether the Allies, having learn
ID by dear-beught reconnaissance the structure of
he Redan and Malakof Towers, will again attempt
% storm them, whether they will adopt the course
which to us at distance would seem the most FEAST
,le, of meeting the enemy ia the open field, and
hen Gf successfully investing Sebastopol on the side
hitherto open to the Russians and thus cutting off
upplles and reinforcemens to the beleaguered for
ress, remains 10 be seen. The war has now reached
point when every movement of the contending for
es possesses absorbing interest. How thankful
ught those nations to be which only spectators

The Northern Democracv.

We copy the extract below from the New York
Day Book, paper that has always defended the
constitutional rights of the South with equal zeal
and ability: The Day Book contends with equal
bined against the South that the great body of the
Northern Democracy has generally been ready to do
US justice, and that it is duty well our ins
terest to stand by the Northern Democracy:
"Dont be too fast, gentlemen. The North is not
altogether against you is it against the Nebras-
ka bill There is no necessity of your being fright
ened into casting cannon, sharpening swords, nor
manufacturing gunpowder yet. We OF the North
will take care of our own people We are not all
fanatics and shall not be controlled by fanatics so
do not "go off half cooked y" nor kick out of the
traces yet awhile. We have lived under the consti-
tuition by our fathers some seventy odd years, and
you have had equal protection with the rest of us.
not good constitutional loving citizens enough in
the North to keep down the potters against you and
your institutions
When, gentlemen, did the Democracy of the North
desert you or refuse to stand by you Never! It
gave you President Polk and Texas--and 1t gave YOU
the fugitive slave law, and it gave you President
Pierce and the Nebraska bill. What more can YOU
ask We readily admit that these were your rights,
butwe point to them only to show that Northern
Democracy always has and always will give you
your rights.
Why, then, desert it or talk about fighting the
whole North Stand by those who have stood by
you, and you will never have reason to complain =
You should make some allowance for Northern hab-
It's and Northern prejudice, and not expect all
people to think just you do the subject of sla.
very; that is not possible. But you have always
found the Democratic party to deal Justly with you,
and you may rely upon it to do justly hereafter,
matter what the people think about slavery. Don't
leave the Democratic party, of the South, until
1t leaves you and you will have nothing to fear from
Northern fanaticismn
