THE SAILOR TO HIS HOME.

Twas there by the sea wandered and wept
When | thought of my dear loved home,
When ] thought of the infant that slept
In fond mothers bosom at home.
Twas on the shore Of that ocean | thought,
/ heard the voices Of childhood at home
When rest from the troubles of manhood |
sought,
Far, far away from the shelter Of home.
Twas on the breast of that wild water dark,
recurred to the days of a schoo!boy at
home
While drifting along in surge-beaten bark,
Borne on to that haven, my dear humble
home.
Twas there while I Listened to old oceans
roar
] looked but in vain for tie comfort Of
home
The eagles wild scream was heard on that
shore,
Instead Of my sisters sweet voices at home.

A WINTER NIGHT AMONG THE
HILLS.

BY HENRY T. HARRIS.
Cold blows the February blast.
Among these snow-capped-hills,
And cold the vestal moon now shines
Upon the frozen rills.
The bare trees stand like sentineis,
To guard these solitudes,
That reign with awful stiffness
Through these wild and painless wood
The wildcat from his rocky den
Comes with piercing scream
His fierce eye in the moonlight
Flashes with fearful CLEAN
The mountain-wof sends up her cry
Since morn she has not fed;
And she is eager now to slay,
And banquet on the dead"
The raccoon walks alone tonight
Within the frozen bog,
And leaves his footprints in the snow
Upon the maple log.
The deep-mouthed owl far up the glen,
Holds urdisputed sway
lie sits-Night's loneiest chorister-
Upon the beechen spray.
The slender Doe has gone to rest
The tireso me chase is DER;
Our faithful hounds have lost her track,
TO be regained no more.
Nights lonely moments coldly fly
With stiffness all supreme,
Save when the owls long, moody cry
Comes with the wildcats scream.
A blazing fire, before our tent.
Sends out its brilliant light
And from each near protecting rock
Dispels the frost of night.
A fat deer hangs against the tree
His slender limbs are still
No more his musky feet will paw
Upon the yellow hill.
Before the fire our hounds now sleep
The mountain chase is DONE
We rode through wild untroden dells
Until the stag was won.
Drear is the night cannot sleep
Among these frozen hills;
For natures widest Poetry
My souls deep casket fills.

A FACT FOR THE OLD WHIes 1T is a
fact which can never pass out Of the, recol.
lection Of the admirers of Henry Clay, that
James Buchanan was the author Of the
atrocious charge Of "bargain and corrup'
ton made against Henry Clay and John
Quincy Adams, in 1925. Never was there
uttered baser, more malignant, or more
unfounded slandey. and it is safe to predic,
that the remnant pf that glorious party who
idolized the gallant Clay. willhesitate long
and reflect well before they bestow thei,
votes on man who attempted to assassin
ate his reputation. .-rB4f Com. Adv.
Inconsistent, as il may seem, there ar,
those who still hold the name Of Clay ii
profound reverence and yet talk Of support
ing the man who opposed almost every
principle Mr.. Clay ever advocated, and wht
ceased not at party opposition, but also ma
ligned the. great statesman in such way
as defeated his election. We leave it fol
such men, to say how they can reconcile
their professions Of reverer ce for the nam,
of Henry Clay.-Sandusk:' Register.
