MoRALITY OF DIVORCES.

Speaking one day of the early Re-
mans, Mr. Webster said that he could
almost believe everything related by
historians of their extraordinary virtues
public and domestic, when he dwelt up
on the fact that, though their laws au-
thorized divorce, yet, for the first five
hundred years, no individual ever
availed himself of such license at
was the domestic training" he said, cit
was the mother who made Publicola,
Camilus and Corialanus. Woman, pre-
tected by the inayoidability of the nup-
tial band, were invested with dignity
that gave authority to instruction, and
made the domestic Garth the nursery of
heroes. Public virtue fell with private
morality. Under Imperial Rome d.
vorces were sought for and obtained up
on the most frivolous pretexts, and all
domestic confidence was destroyaa. The
inevitable consequence was the loss of
public morality. Men who had been
false to their private obligations, would
not be true to their public duties; Cse-
sar divorced his wife, and betrayed his
country
1.-THE sanctity of the nuptial bond is,
in my opinion, one of tho principal, if
not the chief cause of the superior re-
fnement, freedom aud prosperity en-
joyed at the present time by Christian
nations.''

ASHLAND ASHLAND COUNTY, OHIO, WEDNESDAY NOR

; When Rachel Maria heard of the be-
trothals, she exclaimed against the folly
and perversity of youth, and the sinful
ness ofinordinate creture affection which
she said was the same as idolatry.
,fThe talo is told. Its characters and
Aeidents are drawn from real life. The
!srtistic blending of them is our own
The lessons they teach are those of
nature, and truth, and God. The sim
jplicity of hearts confidipg in God; the
triumph of self in the midst of great
temptations and above all, the care Of
cur heavenly Father for the orphaned
Ienes, are lessons that spring up out of
the incidents scattered along the banks
of llfe's stream; but amid that sand
glittsrs many a grain of precious ore.
So, also, along that pathway the brier
and the tn 'rn spring up-unsightly to
the eye, and all the more repulsive when
their sickly lessons give promise of
horns aad briers evermore.
We hope for our tale that it will do
something more than interest for few
passing moments-that it will deposit in
some youthful hearts the precious seed
that will give birth to noble impulses,
heroic virtues, and heavenly aims.
We can write no longer; our fingers
are weary, and our eyelids adroop. It
is near midnight; there is storm
abroad upon the hills; the chill wind
walls and shrieks as it dashes the rain
against the window. There is grave,
too, far up the hill side, where the
cold rain is soaking and beating into the
turf, and dashiug against the marble
head stone! No time now to write of
the happiness of this world. Reader,
good night.

THE SISTERS.
BY MARY E. WILCOX.
1coNCLuDED.1
PART III.

Ill.
Eight more years have passed with
their chances aud changes. No one who
had not seen Elizabeth since her child
hood would recognize her now. The
erect ard stately carriage, the qneenly
head, crowned with single heavy braid
of dark hair, the
'fDeep eyes, inmixed of night and fire,
In whose large motion you might see
Her roy al soul lived royalty"
Were all changed from what they had
been in her childhood. You could not
recognize in the graceful maiden of
twenty, the awkward child of twelve
Sheis sitting in her fathers little parlor
watching the light of sunset as it slowly
waves away. May is spending her ac-
customed Summer months at her faith
er's; but she has gone out and Eliza
beth is alone, INDUCING in one of those
dreamy reveries, when the soul is SO near
the surface as to appear undisguised,
and when we do not like to be interrupt
ed, even by our dearest friends. She
sat with her hands folded, and a soften
ed sad expression upon her face. She
was dressed in a simple and delicate
muslin, With single white flower light
ing the shining darkness of her hair
As the red West grew paler, her eyes
filled with tears, and half unconsciously
she repeated the words of fayorite
poet:
''Move Eastward happy earth, and leave
You orange sunset waning slow
From fringes Of the faded eve;
happy plant, Eastward goi
Here she stopped.
s'TiI per thy dark shoulder glow
Thy silver sister world"
Said strange voice from the dimuess
behind her, continuing the verse. She
sprang to her feet, and gushing food
of crimson swept over her temples. She
was mortified at having been observed
and indignant at beholding stranger in
the parlor. At this instant May silver
laugh rang at her elbow.
Excuse me, sister," said she, "there
was something SO tragical in your rapt
expression as we entered the room, that
We were struck speechless with awe, and
in solemn silence awaited the breaking
of the charm. Don't stand there any
longer with the air Of an offended queen;
but allow me to present at the feet Of
your majesty, my friend, Mr.. Suther-
land, of Charleston Mr. Sutherland,
my sister, Elizabeth"
The customary greetings vere ex-
changed, and lights were brought into
the parlor,
''I trust Miss Harland will forgive
my intrusion, for when I entered the
room With Miss May, Twas not aware

The Patriot Spy.
sr FRANCIS n. FINCH.

2 To Drum beat, and heart beat
A Soldier marches by;
There is color in his cheek
There 10 eours ge in his eye:
Yet to drum. beat, aud heart beat
Tomorrow he must die.
BY star light, and m oon light
He seeks the Briton's camp:
He hears the rustling flag
And the armed sentinal's tramp,
And the star light, and moonlight
His. silent w&ndering's lamp.
With slow tread. and still tread,
He scans the tented line,
And he counts the battery guns
by the gauEt and sh adowy pine,
And his slow tread, and still tread
Gives no warming sign
The dark wave, the plumed wave
1t meets his eager glance,
And it sparkles meath the stars
Like glimmer of of a lance:
A dark wave, pIumed wave
On an emerald cxpanse
sharp clang, steel clang,
And terror in the sound,
For the sentry, falcon-eyed,
In the camp a spy hath found,
With sharp clang, steel clang
The patriot is bound.
With calm brow, steady brow,
He listens to his doom
On his brow their is no fear
Nor shadow trace of gloom
But with calm bro steady brow
He robes him for the tomb.
In the long night, the still night,
He kneels upon the sod.
And the brutal guards withhold
Zen the solemn w ord of Cod
IE the long night. the still night
He wsIks where Christ hath trod.
Meath the blue morn, the sunny morn
He dies, upon the tree.
And morns that he has to lose
But one life for liberty;
Ard in the blue morn, the sunny morn,
His spirit wings are free.
But his LIST words-his message ords,
They burn lest friendly eye,
Should road how proud and calm
Patriot and die,
With his last words. his dying words,
A soldiers battle cry.
Ernm fame leaf and angel iieaf
From IeonaL1eut AID urn,
I'll.
His tragic fate snail learn,
And in fame leaf. and angel leaf
The name of t.HALE' shall burn.

REVOLUTIONARY SURGERY.

The Mobile Tribune, in ite Ameri-
can Annals, relates the following:
Among the most active and daring of
Maricn's men were Robert Simmons
aud William Withers. They had been
sent together on some confidential expe-
dition. and while resting at noon for re-
freshment, Withers, who was good shot,
was examining his pistols to see if they
were in good order, while Simmons sat
near him either reading or in reverie.
"Bob,' said Withers, if you had
not that lump on the bridge of your
nose you would be likely young fell
low"
"Do you think so ?' said Simmons,
lstlessly.
"Yes." said Withers. az think I
can shoot off that ugly bump on your
nose Shall shoot ?''
"Shoot ~ said Simmons.
Crack went the pistol. The ball
could not have been better aimed. 1t
struck the projecting bridge, demolish-
ed it forever, and henceforth Simmons
was not the ugliest man in the army.

CONC TO "BETTER CoUNTRY."'-
A Christian does not turn his back up
on the fine things of this world, because
he has natural capacity to enjoy them,
nor taste for them :. but because the Ho-
ly Spirit has shown him greater and
better things. He wants flowers that
will never fade; he wants something
that man can take with him to anoth-
er world. He is like man who has no.
tice to quit his house, and having secur-
ed a new one, he is no more anxious to
repair, much less to embelish and beau
tify the old his thoughts are upon tho
removal: If you hear him converse, it
is upon the house to which he is going.
Thither he sends his goods; and this he
declares plainly what he is selecting.

Hancock was not originally elected as a
delegate to the Continental Congress at
Philadelphia. The illness of James
Bowdoin's wife compelled BoWdoin to
remain at home, and Hancock was selec.
