The following Germanesque " Fantasy
from the pen of Mrs. Barclay Pennock
So close We stood, together,
So near our hearts did beat,
There lay but single shadow
On the green -sward at our feet.
To their inmost soul of azure
Hung bare the heavens on high;
Slow up through the morning brightness
mist-wreath climbed the sky.
Then in the silver-silence
Ny heart became aware
OF a sound, so fine it moved not
The mute and delicate air.
is it the musical ocean,
The moaning, musical sea?
Or is it a wind-witch singing
In the bole of the great ash-tree
"Seven leagues to the northward
Moan the sea-shells on the shore;
No wind in the bole of the ash-tree
Ever sang this tune before"
Then while the fine compression
Of his arm around me stole,
felt how the eyes of my lover
Were looking into my soul.
And he softly said, &c This music
Doth my heart make highland noon.
Full long have waited, weary,
For thy heart to learn the tune.
''Oh leave the wind in the ash.tree
Oh leave the sea on the shore,
For our hearts shall beat this measure,
Dear love, till they beat no more!"

Enigranf's Song.

Over the mountain wave,
See where they come
Storm, cloud and wiIltTy wind
Welcome them home
Yet where the sounding gale,
Hoxls to the sea,
There their song, peals along,
Deep toned and free:
Pilgrims and wanderers,
Hither we come;
Where the free dare TO be-
This is our home.
England hath sunny dalesi
Dearly they bloom;
Scotia hath heather hills,
Sweet their perfume
Yet thro' the wilderness
Cheerful we stray,
Native land, native land,
Home far away
Pilgrims and wanderers,
Hither We come
Where the free dare to be-
This Is our home.
Dim grew the forest path,
Onward they trod -
Firm beat their noble hearts,
Trusting in God
Grey men and blooming maids,>
High rose their song
Hear it sweep, clear and deep,
Ever along:
Pilgrims and wanderers,
Hither we come;
Where the free dare to be-
This is our home.
Not theirs the glory wreath
Torn by the blast;
Heayenward their holy steps,
Heavenward they passed.
Green be their mossy graves
Ours be their fame,
While their songs peal along
Ever the same;
Pilgrims and wanderers,
Hither We come;
Where the free dare to be-
This is our home.

How the Bell Rang.
JuLr 4th, 177s.

There was tnn1ult in the city,
In the quaint old Quaker town;
And the streets were black with people,
Pacing restless up and down
People gathering in corners. -
Where they whispered each to each,
And the sweat stood ON their temples,
With the earnestness OF speech.
As the black Atlantic currents
Lash the Wild Newfoundland shore,
So they beat against the State House,
So they surged against its door;
And the mingling of their voices
Made harmony profound.
Till the quiet Street Of Chestnuts
Was all turbulent with sound.
"WiIl they do it 90 "Dare they do it ?"
"Who is speaking?v "What the news %
swhas OF Adams 2 y. g What of Carroll ?"
. aohi God grant they won't refuseP'
make some way therei" "Let me nearerp'
aIan stifiBgf" "Stife then,-
When nations life's at hazard
We've no time to think of meni .
So they beat against the portal,
Man and woman, maid and child
And the July sum in Heaven
On the crowd looked down and smiled.
The same sun that saw the Spartan
Shed his patriot blood in vain,
Now beheld the Soul of Freedom.
All unconquered, raise again!
So they beat against the portal
While ell soIemnly inside
The delegates of Congress,
With but reason for their guide,
Ger Il simple scroll debated
Which, though simple it might be,
Could shake the cliffs of England
With the thunders of the Freel
at the portal of the State House,
Like some beacon in the storm
Round which waves are wildly beating,
Stood slender, boyish form,
With his eyes fixed on the steeple,
And his ears agape with greed,
Tocateh the first announcement
OF the signing of the deed.
Aloft in that high sfeeple
Sat the Bellman, old and gray,
He was sick of British power,
He was sick of British pay;
So ne sat with lean hand ready
On the elapper of the bell,
When signaled from the portal,
, The happy news to tell.
See, see /, the black crowd shivers
Through all its lengthy hne,
As the boy upon the portal
Looks up and gives the sign;
Aud straightway at the signal
The old Bellman lifts his hand,
And sends the good news waking
Iron music through the land
How they shouted what rejoicingi
How the old bell shook the air,
TIL the clang of Freedom rufied
The calm-gliding Delaware
How the bonfires and the torches
IlIuned the nights repose,
And from the flames, like Phoenix,
Slaughtered Liberty arose.
The old bell now is silent,
And hushed its iron tongue,
But the spirit it awakened
Still lives forever young.
And while we breathe the sunlight
On the Fourth of this July,
Let US not forget the Bellman,
Who, 'twixt the earth and sky,
Rang out our Independence,
Which, please God, shall never die

Some time ago, gentleman called up
on wealthy but inordinately mean man, and
found him at the breakfast table quite alone,
and doing his utmost to.catch fly which was
buzzing around the room. "What the deuce

amusing himself by catching flies, seemed
very singular, to say the least. s.Hush!'' ex-
claimed the other, "Pll tell YOU presently .o-
After many efforts the old fellow succeededlat
last in trapping the fly. Taking the insect
carefully between his thumb and fore-finger,
he put it into the sugar bowl, and quickly
dropped the lid over the prisoner. His visitor,

Bigler-I think safe in saying that the Senator
from illinois viii that the President upholds in
his message the doctrhethat the Convention had the
right the Constitution and submit IL to the peo-
pie for approval seed IL up to Congress think it
deducibe from the that the President does
hold that because the entire Constitution
submitted to the people Kansas should be kept Of
the Union.
Mr.. Dougias-I infer from the message that the
President does hold that the Convention has right
form Constitution and send IL here but that only
the right to petition for redress of grievances under
the federal constitution, and not because the Legisia
ture had the power to constitute that legal Conven
tion.
Mr.. Bigler-where did you get that's
Mr.. Douglas-A gentleman--meaning Trumbuli-
Yesterday read from a speech made bv Mr.. Buchanan
that Convention created by territorial government
had right to supersede it, and attempt IL would
would be gross usurpation. The Democratic Party has
held that doctrine since and IL asserted IL year
ago by endorsing his (Dougaso report from Commit
tee ON Territories. Three hundred thousand copies
were circulated as party documents-he himself paid
for a hundred thousand of them. Laughter
Mr.. Bglerentered his protest aud claimed the stat
ute of limitation He would not consent that Douglas
should hold the President responsible for principles
laid down 20 years ago under entirely different crcum-
stances Is not half long since Douglas declared
proposed to extend to the Pacific Ocean, yet he re-

Mr. Douglas denied the right Mr. Bigler to offer the
statute ofmitations. None the authorized Attor-
ney of the party thus nterpose The Senator has
denied authority to speak for the Presidont-he can
file that plea.
He needed one very much himself He had never
beasted he had never changed his opinions He felt
every year little wiser than the year before Has the
President ever withdrawn that opinions He denied
the right to plead the statute limitation against

tion met He stood where he stood last year be-
he believed he was right II was trne that he

EXTRAORDINARY MEMoRy.-An English
man, at a certain time, came to Frederick the
Great, OF Prussia, for the express purpose Of
giving him an exhibition of his power of re-
collection. Frederick went at Voltaire, who
read to the King pretty long poem, which he
had just finished. The Englisman was present
and was In such position that he could hear
every word Of the poem, but was concealed
from Voltaire's notice. After the reading Of
the poem was finished, Fredrick observed to
to the auther that The production could not be
an original one, as there was foreign gentle-
man who could recite every word Of it. Vol
taire listened with amazement to the stranger
as he repeated word for word the poem which
ne had been at 30 much pains in COM
posing, and gave way to momentary freak Of
passion, and tore the manuscript to pieces
A statement was then made of the circumstan-
ces under which the Englishman hecame ac-
quainted with the poem, which had the effect
to mitigate his anger, and he was very willing to
do penance for his suddenness Of passion, by
copying down the work from second repe-
tition of it by the stranger, who was able to go
through with it as before.
