from late speech Of Mr. Cboate in a suit brought by

Others damages injuries received military at

YEARS TO COME.

BY CHARLES SWAIN.
A day will dawn nc'er shall see.
A night will set ne or shall know,
The wave-tides Of humanity
Thus ever circle, to and fro.
The dew with gems shall bed the flower,
The bird make rich the morn with song,
And Mind still climbing hour by hour,
Find worlds beyond the starry throng.
Years shall return to future years
What ages unto them have given,
And that high power which Faith reveals,
Grasp the fixed hopes of earth and Heav' n .
What younger Howard then might feel
What other Wilberforce arise
What Burke assert the general veal
What Ross or Newton span the skies?
The joys, the hopes, the interests,
That animate the bosom now,
Shall lend their glowSto other breasts
And flush the young enthusiasts brow.
The majesty Of manhood then
May aim at some diyiner worth,
And Progress grant 10 future men
A wider brotherhood on earth
What theory shall then succeed?
What deeper power--what newer theme
What fresh discovery supersede
The electric fash -the steed of steam?
Who'll be the bara to England dear,
When centurieslhave filed and fled
Or who the statesmen crowds will cheer,
Worthy the Pqels or Galatians dead
The passions THAI distract mankind
The Pride--tlie envy-the mistrust--.
Shall they be sqhtter'd on the wind
That lifts the banner of the just?
Shall Christian serse e'er sheath the sword,
Shall simplelJustice rule the land,
Shall Law its khield of right afford,
A right thatall may understand?

CAMPHoR AND STRYcHNINE. The ben
eiicial effects Of camphor, as an antidote
to strychnine, are illustrated in a case
reported by DR. Tewksbury, Of Port
land, Maine. IL appears that boy was
seized with commissions and that It was
ascertained that he had just eaten bis
cult, picked up at the door Of an eating
house, that was made for the purpose Of
killing rats, and contained about one and
half grains of strychnine. The boys
spasms were so severe that immediate
death was inevitable, though all the
usual remedies were rcsorted TO- Cam
phor could not be introduced into the
stomach on account Of the continued
lock-jaw. Accordingly, strong injections
Of camphor were used, and the body i'm

few hours the boy was comparatively

CHARITY.-Nigbt kissed the young
rose, and it bent softly to sleep. Stars
shone, and pure dew-drops hung from
its bosom, and watched its sweet slum-
bers. Morning came with its dancing
breezes, and they whispered TO the young
rose and it awokc. joyous and smiling.
Lightly it danced 10 and fro in all the
loneliness of health and youthful inno-
cence. Then came the ardent sun-god,
sweeping from the east, and he smote
the young rose with his searching rays,
and it tainted. Deserted and almost
heart-broken, it dropped 10 the dust in
its loneliness and despair. Now the
gentle breeze which had been gambol-
ing over the sea, pushing on the home
bound bark, sweeping over hill and dale
by the neat cottage and still brook
turning the old mill, tanning the brow Of
disease, and frisking the curls Of nno-
cent childhood-camc tripping along on
her crrands Of mercy aud love; and
when she saw the young rose she FASTENED
to kiss il, and fondly bathed its forehead
in cool, refreshing showers, and tho
young rose revived and looked up and
smiled in gratitude 10 tho kind breeze;
she but hurried quickly away her gem
erous task was not without reward for
she soon perceived that delicious fra
GRANGE had been poured on her wings by
the grateful rose; and the kind breeze
was glad IN heart, and went away singing
through the trecr Thus Charity, like
the breeze, gathers fragrance from the
dropping flowers refrcshcs and uncon-
sciously reaps reward in the perform
ance Of its Offices Of kindness, which
steals on the heart like rich perfume, to
bless and to cheer. ysasr
