"A NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.,

The Defterdar, as he is always called,

death has passed into other hands: ,s1a':

his room by his men, he and the woman

found in the mans stomach and the Def

woman. .f1 ~ -..-sa... |
In another instance, q tax collector had
levied on poor mans COW, his sole pos
session, for one of the onerous taxes of
Mehemet Ali. The COW was worth two
hundred piastres. The tax was forty.
The collector took the cow, sent for a
butcher, made him kill the COW and cut
into ten pieces, and sent for ten men and
forced them to take and pay for the piec
es six piastres each. 1t was cheap meat
but they would never have touched it
except under force -a t.. Tr .a@- o.
The man complained to the Deftendar
that his COW, worth two hundred, had
been'in this manner sold for sixty, and by
the oppression of the collector he was left
destitute. The Deftendar sent a boat to
the village and brought all the parties
and Witnesses to his palace.
1t was clear case of oppression.
'HOw dared you kill this mans coW?'

The following eloquent description Of

DR.. Hays lecture on the Arctic Regions
We have, at least, when eight or nine
miles under ground in the Mammoth cave
seems TO feel the darkness, but we never
imagined that other negative attribute Of
nature-silence-c could be so intense as to
be, heard. Yet the Doctors description
makes this strange parody reality. He
says, ae s1...1if .a g. ..r.. X ..
''The moonlights Of this period winter
are the most grand and impressive of any
thing L have ever Witnessed. The clear
ness of the air, the white surface of the
snow and ice. give an effect monotonous
and cheerleSs, but truly grand. But there
is a nea0 element which makes this mid win
ter moonlight seem almost terrible in its
mpresslveness-it is silence.
L have often, to escape from the trying
monotony of ship board life, gone off
six or eight miles into the interior in
search OF novelty and in order that
might be alone. There, seated upon a
rock or snow bank. look around me, aud
see great. uneven country; rocky hills
and GLACIERS covered with snow; myriads
of crystal gems sparkling in the light Of
the pale moon, which shoots its rays down
through the crisp air. making it almost as
light as day. 1 look seaward, and see a
long plain Office. melting into the horizon,
dotted allover with huge, towering bergs

crunching of the tables as they rise and

cross my path. no tree among whose stiff
branches the wind can sigh and moan.
There is no song of bird to enliven the

a TRUE TALE.


One cold windy morning, the last Sun
day Of December, l849, half naked man
Knocked timidly at the basement door of
a fine substantial mansion in the city OF
Brooklyn. Though the weather was Bit
ter even. for the season, the, young man
had no 6othing but a pair of ragged
cloth pants, and the remains of flannel
shirt, which exposed his muscular chest
in many large rents. But in spite of his
tattered apparel and evident fatigue, as
he leaned heavily upon the railing of the
basement stairs, critical observer could
not fail to notice conscious air of digni>
ty and the marked traces Of cultivation
and refinement in his pale, haggard coun-
tenance. . .., -.....-..... ...
The door was speedily opened, and dis
closed a large. comfortably furnished
room, with its glowing CRATE of anthra-
cite; before which was placed a luxuri-
ously furnished breakfast table. A fash
ionably attired young man. in brocade
dressing gown and velvet slippers, was
reclining in soft tauteuil. busiIy reading
the morning papers. The beautiful young
wife had fingered at the table, giving to
the servant in waiting her orders for the
household matters of the day, when The
tlmld rap at the door attracted her atten-
ton. She commanded it to be opened
but the young master OF the mansion re-
piled that it was quite useless-being no
one but some thievish beggar; but The
door was already opened, and the sym
pathies of Mrs. Haywood enlisted at
once. .s..
Come in to the fire. cried the young
wife. ,impulsiyely. before you perishH
The mendicant. without exhibiting any
surprise at such unusual treatment OF a
street begger, slowly entered the room,
mauifesting painful weakness at every
step. On his entrance, Mr.. haywood,
with displeased air. gathered up his pa
pers and left the apartment. The COM
passionate lady unwisely placed the half
frozen man near the fire, while she pre-
pared bowl of fragrant cofee-which,
with abundant food. was. placed before
him. But noticing the abrupt departure
Of her husband. Mrs. Maywood, with a
elouded Gopptenance. left the room, whis.

POETRY.

The world is full Of poetry-thc air
Is living with its spirit; and tho waves
Dance to the music ofits melodies,
And sparkles in ills brightness. Earth veil'c
And mantled with it's beauty; and tho wall!
That close the universe with crystal in -'
Are eloquent with voices, that procluim-
Tho unseen glorics of immcnsity,
In harmonics, too perfect and too high
For aught but beings of celestial mould,
And speak to man in one eternal hymn,
Unfading beauty and unyiolding power.

LOVE.

Take back your gold, and give me love
The eurnest smile,
The heart-voice that can conquer pain,
And care beguile.
Take back your silver, whence it came
It leads to strife; ,
a woman's nature feeds on love-
Love is lis life.
Take buck your silver and your gold
Their gain is logs;
But bring me love-for love is heaven
And they arc dross.
