The rest were driven far on exiled land,
Unpitied, unprotected. Sad that day,
W hen for our sins, we from the Promised land.
Were Carried by the fierce Assyrian hand.
s'But whether now on Zion's Mount they dwell
Orquench their thirst at kidrons gentle brook
Or draw their water yet from Jacobs WE'LL
Or if they still preserve Gods Holy Book.
Or He doth on them with compassion look,

And regns their king-while We who first

Without guide-or friend-far from our
much loved home.
go, sad and bleeding is my stricken heart.
For earth cncloses what on earth was DEAR
All that is left, are dregs of keenest smart,
Dark desolate behind before all fear.
Long since is dried the fountain, whence tue
tear
Would fall, at times upon my sunbu;nt cheek,
The voice of love / never more shall hear
Since am last on earth, and old, ard weak
Ny heart so troubled that can no longer speak. ,
Thus the lone Indian sang, then set him down
In silent anguish, for he could no more
The thought endure that he too should go down
AS all his tribes, so peeled, had done before
Uncared for by theP Palefacc-triumphed DER
BY these he sheltered when the storm was wild
His limbs waXed feeble, and his aspect wore
y iOugeT tilaI sweet smile, as Wlen CniIq
Sporting on Tanai's banks, he all his cares be-
guiled.
Hark Heard st thou that deep sigh now still
he lies;
His heart so full OF life has ceased to beat
Humbled before his conqueror he dies
And yields his form submissive at his feet
No kindred spirit could he ever meet,
Since in the narrow cell his race was laid
Nor did a friendly smile this lone one greet
His love to others shown, was ill-repad,
He died alone, heart-broken, by false friends
betrayed.
l woke, it was dream there yet is hope
] cried, o Christian, haste TO rescue those
Who linger still by stream-on mountain top.
Nor think them now, ,as erSt ,your deadly foes,
Lone. desolatc and sad the Rcdman gncs,
From place to place, pursued by the same hand
That should have rescued him from all his
woes,
And led him to fairer, better land.
Haste then to help, for on ruins brink

DS~Quecn Yictoria's loyal subjects IN New
foundland are in a commotion, in consequence
Of the Home Government proposing to trans
fer the fishery privileges of that province to
France. The Legislature and the press are
indignant at this fragrant attempt to deprive
the colony of its most s'natural and sacred
rights and which act, they allego, would
''sevcr the tie which has hitherto bound the
colony to the parent State" This "tie'' ap-

The Turkish soldier marches to meet the
foe with the same nonchalance as he smokes
his pipe. He is taught from his birth that the
moment of his death is fixed, and that whole
charge of artillery aimed at his heart would
miss him, if destiny had decreed his time not
come. He is taught also that he will go
straightway to Paradise the moment Of his
death. With both these ideas, he is so fully
impressed, that no danger moves him, and he
lies on his death-bcd as calmly as on a bed
for sleep.

IL the melancholy Barth olomew massacre,
in France, for three days every Protestant who
could be found was put to death. BY order Of
the king, Admiral de Coligny was murdered
in his own house, but Merlin, his chaplain,
concealed himself in hay-loft. 1t is recor-
ded in the acts Of the next synod, of which he
was moderator, that though many in similar
circumstances died OF hunger, he was suppor-

THE MUNICIPAL ELECTION.

In the local column will be found the result of the
municipal election held in this city yesterday to-
gether with brief and we believe, an impartial ac-
count of the bloody and dsgraceful transactions
which marked its progress in the early part of the
day Our city authorities fully prepared to
cope with and eifectuay put down any violations of
the peace on part Of such of citizens who
have done so much to injure the good name and dam
age the best interests of fWashngton since the advent
of fknow-nothingism in midst; but they were not
prepared for the importation Of gangs of armed bull
lies and desperadoes from neighboring city, and
hence the frightfuly fatal scenes of yesterday.
1t must be apparent to the whole of this outraged
community that these Baltimore rufans did not visit
their sympathizing brethren of Washington from their
own bloody promptings but that they expressly
picked out, hired and brought to this city for the
purpose, to their own language, of regulating
the eection-or, in other words, to shoot cut down,
or stab all who attempted to vote the anti-know-notl-
ing ticket. We have too much reason to fear that
these wretches were directly indirectly employed
by persons in this city who have hitherto enjoyed
high social position If investigation, this fear
should prove to be well grounded, there can be no
hesitation as where the real responsibility of yes
terdays bloody work belongs.
