Near the Pyramids, more wondrous and
more awful than all else in the land of Egypt
there sits the lonely Sphynx. Comely the
creature is, but the comeliness is not of
this world; the once worshipped beast is a
deformity, and a monster to this generation,
and yet you can see that those lips, so
thick and heavy, were fashioned according
to some ancient mould of beauty--now
forgotten--forgotten, because that Greece
drew forth the Cytheria from the flashing
form of the Aegian, and in her image Gre
ated new forms Of beauty, and made it a
law among men that the short and proud
ly-wreathed lip should stand for the main
condition Of loveliness, through all gener
ati ons to come. Yet there lives on the
race of those who were beautiful in the
fashion of the elder world: and Christian
girls of coptic blood will look on you with
the sad, serious gaze, and kiss your char
liable hand with the big, pouting lips of
the very Sphynx.
Laugh and mock if you will at the wor-
ship of stone idols, but mark ye this, ye
breakers of images. that in one regard, the
stone idol bears awful semblance of Deity
unchangefulness in the midst of change
the same seeming will and intent forever
and inexorablel Upon ancient dynasties
of Ethiopian and Egyptian Kings: upon
Arab and Ottoman conquerors--upon Ma
poleon dreaming ofan eastern Empire--up-
on battle and pestilence-upon the cease
less mystery of the human race--upon
keen-eyed travelers--Heroditus yesterday
and Warburson to-day-upon all and more
this unworldiy Sphynx has watched, and
watched like a Providence, with the same
earnest eyes, and the same sad, tranquil
men. And we, shall die, and Islam shall
wither away; and the Englishman, leaning
far over to hold his loved India will plant
firm foot on the Nile, and sit in the seat
of the faithful: and still that sleepless rock
will lie, watching and watching the works
of the new busy race, with those same sad,
earnest eyes. and the same tranquil mien
everlasting. You dare not mock at the
Sphynx.--Eothen.
Marshall County Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1855-1859, 1857-11-26

SOME gentlemen travelling in a stage
coach near Austin Texas, had for fellow
passenger a talkative lady who soon in
formed them that she was on a visit to one
of her neighbors, to congratulate him upon
having recently used up Know Nothing
in public debate. Seeing a chance for
fun, one of the gentlemen at once begged
permission to introduce the other as Lieut..
Toy, the leading spirit of Know Nothing
Lodge down in the country. A Know
Nothing, is he? questioned the lady. He
is.' Well if ever catch him in my house
counting one of my daughters, I'd run
him out with the dogs. and then send the
niggers to dig the tracks out of the yard.

old familiar lines, and, while flood of
sweet memories rush ever the soul, revel
in tender "reminiscences, and bright dreams
of the long vanished years? Precious me-
mentoes of the sunny past, oft they are,
when the young heart beat lighter than now
ere we left the portals of the fairy land; of
"Long Ago." when the earth seemed full

fair, and we rocked not of the wild tenn

of them penned by hands now peacefully
elasped beneath coffin lids, over uncon-

hath stilled forevermore. And as L, with
a half-pleasing sadness, read them over,
the spirit-yoIces of those dear departed

Summing up the Case.

The washington Uninon having carefully
examined the cause and bearings of the
present crisis, comes to the conclusion that
matters are not as bad as they might be.
We owe foreign nations nothing-in a
mercantile point of view. The balance of
trade is in our power.
Our cotton crop of last year was one
hundred and thirty millions. 1t will be
now worth one hundred and sixty.
Our tobacco crop this year will produce
twenty millions of dollars. There are
twenty one States in the Union which grow
tobacco, and the crop this year is an aver
age one.
Our wheat crop in 1850 was one hund-
red millions of bushels, and estimated that
year at an equal amount of dollars. Since
then a very great stimulus has been applied
to wheat growing. Then we had eleven
millions Of acres of wheat. Now we have
not less than twenty-five. 1t is seven years

crease and must be added to that year, amp
the greater demand now than then. The
product of wheat, we have no doubt, will
be two hundred and twenty millions of
bushels. It may Be rated at an equal
amount in dollars.
California will produce fortyfve mill
ions of gold. This will not leave us as
heretofore. Then four -hfths of it went
away. This year four-ffths of it will re-
main.
Our crop of corn in 1850 was estimated
at two hundred and sixty millions of dol
iars-this year we shall have eight hundred
millions Of bushels. Il will be worth more
than the sum of that year.
Besides these staple articles, we have a
long list of exports which would swell the
aggregate amount to an immense number
of millions.

GENERAL JACKsoN.--He was mani
Well do l remember the day l waited
upon him. He sat there in his arm
chair; can see the old warriors face, with
his snow white hair, even now. We told
him of the public distress; the manufactu-
rers ruined; the eagles shrouded in Grape,
which were borne at the head of the twen-
~ thousand men into independence Square
he heard us all. We begged him to
leave the deposits where they were; to up
hold the great Bank of Philadelhia. AT
last. one of cur number. moro fiery than
the rest intimated that if the Bank was
crushed rebellion might follow. Then
the old man, can see him yet,
"Comep' he shouted in voice of thun-
der, as his clenched fist was raised above
his white hairs, "come with bayonets in
your hands instead ofpetitions; | am ready
for you all. By the Eternal! with the
people at my back, whom your gold nei-
ther buy nor awe, I will swing you up
around the Capitol, each rebel of you, on
a gibbet as high as Haman's!"
When think of that one man standing
there at Washington, battling with all the
powers of bank and panic combined, be-
trayed by those in whom he had trusted,
assailed by all that the snake Of malice
could hiss, or the fend of falsehood could
howl, when l think of that one man plac-
ing his back against the rock, and folding
his arms for the blow, while he uttered his
awful vow: "By the Eternal! l will not
swerve from the path I have ehosenp I
must confess that the records of Greece
and Rome-nay. the proudest day of Ma
poleon and Cromwell-cannot furnish an
instance of will like that Of Andrew
Jackson's when he placed his life, soul and
fame on the hazard of die, fer the peo-
ple's welfare.-Lippard.
