The Farmers Song.


Success to the Jolly old farmer,
Who sing at the tai Of his poW, .r ~ -
The monarch Of pFairie and forest, 'ss a
IT'S only to God be may bow.
lie u SURE q fortunate fellow: a.... ..-.... ....
He raises hla bread and his cheese, .H
And, though hard Is his labor In sumner,
In winter be lives at his ease.
When the reign Of chin winter h broken,
And spring comes to gladden. and bleas; .-
When the aocka ID the Meadow are sporflng,
And the robin Is building her nest,
The farmer walks forth % his labor, .rH .IH
And manly and arm Is his tread,
A. he Scaltefs his seeds for the harvest
That yields 70 the nation their bread.
Ills banks are all chartered by nature,
Their credits are ample and sure;
Ills clerks never slope with deposits,
Pursued by the curse Of the poor;
. Ills stocks are the best In the market,
Ills shares are the shares Of the ploH;
They bring the bright gold 10 his eolIeEs, rss7r-
{ And pleasure and hralih to hi brow.
When his crops are gathered and sheltered,
When bis cattle are snug In the fold,
He sits himself down by the hreside,
And laughs at the tempest and cold -
stranger to pride aud ambition, as Z.
Ills duty he strives to fuhl,
Determined, whatever betidt him, ... .s
To let the world jog as Il win. ...

Mar iage in Quick T. me.

It is proverbial in Minnesota, "Tf any one
wants to get married, attend Miss B-'s

The most expeditions case in which was espe.

noticed q tall six.footer standing at the corner
Of vacant lot, who Joined her as she passed
along. The following day she was not In her
accustomed seat, and on the third day sho en-.

HYMN of the NEarseillaise.

The Marseilaise was inspired by genius, pa
triotisn, youth, beauty and champagne. Rouget
de Lisle was an officer of the garrison at Stras-
burg, and native of Mount Jura He was an
unknown poet and composer. He had peasant
friend, named Dietrick, whose wife and daughters
were the only critics and admirers Of the soldier
poets song. One night he was at supper with
lis friends family, and they had only coarse bread
and slices Of ham. Dietrick, looking sorrOwfuly
at Dc Lisle, said, "Plenty is not our ieast but
we have the courage Of soldiers heart; Ihave
still one bottle left in the cellar-bring Il, my
daughter, and let rs drink to liberty and our
country !" 4se5
The young girl brought the bottle; II was soon
exhausted, and De Lisle went staggering to bed =;
he could not sleep for the cold, but his heart was
warm and full Of the beating Of genius and pa
triOtism. He took q small clavicord and tried 10
compose q song; sometimes the words were COM
posed lirst-s0metimes the air. Directly he fell
aseep over the instrument, and waking at day
light wrote down what he had conceived in the de-
lirium Of the night Then he woke the family, and
sang his production; at first the women turned
pale, then they wept, then burst forth into cry
Of enthusiasm. It was the song Of the nation
and Of terror. -...f .,,....
Two months afterwards, Detrick went to the
scaiFOld, listening to the selfsamc music eompos.
Cd uuuCE us ONu IOOA auu W Wv puahNOa W
his last bottle Of wine The people sang It every
where; it flew from city to city, to every public
orchestra. Marseilles adopted the song at the
opening and close OF its clubs hence the Hymn
OF the Marseillaise;" then It spread all over
France. They sung II in their houses, in pub
lie assemblies, and in the stormy streets conVo-
cation. De Lisle's mother heard il, and said TO
her son.. "What is this revolutionary hymn,
sung by bands Of brigands, and with which
your name is mingledS" De Lisle heard it and
shuddered as il sounded through the streets Of
Paris, rung from the Alpine passes, while he, q
royalist fed from the infuriated people frenEied
by his own words. France was great amphi-
theatre Of anarchy and blood, and De Lisle's song
was the battle cry. .....
There is no national air thatwill compare with
the Marseillaise in sublimity and power; It en-
braces the soit cadences full Of the PEASANTS
home, and the stormy elAngor Of silver and steel
when an empire is oyerthrown; il endures the
memory Of the vine dresser's cottage, and makes
the Frenchman, in his exile, cry ala belle
Francct' iorgetful Of the torch, and sword, and
guillotine, which have made his country spectre
Of blood in tho eyes Of nations. Nor can the
foreigner listen to IT, sung by q company Of ex-
lies, or executed by band Of musicians, with,
out feeling that it is the pibroch Of battle and
war.

0yer-Eaten.

How many people eat to make
it even. All the butter is gone, but
the bread is not quite eaten, so an
other piece oil butter is taken; but it
was too much, and the bread has
gwen out. z
How nany-a-time has the reader
aten some remnant on his plate,
not because he wanted it, but TO
prevent it being wasted! How often
have you eaten as much as you wan
ted, and were about pushing back
from the table, when very unexpect-
eddy, new dish, or splendid look
ing pudding, dumping or pie is pre-
scented, and you Immediately "set
to-" and before you are done have
eaten almost as much bulk as you
had done before.
Many time have you gone down
to the table, not only without an ap-
petite, but with almost a feeling of
aversion to food; and yet you tasted
this, and that, and the other, and
before you were aware oft. you had
made out considerable supper!
All these practices are wasteful,
hurtful and beastly-no, we recall
that; we are doing Mr.. Pig an in
justice; for like all other respectable
animals, when he is ''done," he
"quits"-a thing which rational men
seldom do.-[tall's Journal of
Health. ..s--... ......

Real Power.

Wealth, we are told, is power;
talent is power, and knowledge is
power. But there is a mightier
force in the world than either Of
these-a power which wealth is not
rich enough to silence. They all
tremble in its presence. 1t is truth
the really most potent element of
social or individual life. Though
tossed upon the pillows Of popular
commo,ion, Or cast into the seven
fold furnace of persecution, or tram
pied into the dust by the iron heel
ofpower,. truth, is the one indie
structible thing in this world that loo
ses in no conflict, suffers from no
misusage and abuse, and maintains
its vitality and completeness after
every assault.

THE BIBLE IN THE New York PUBLIC Schools
Yesterday, the day on which the public schools
were announced to resume their sessions was look
ed forward to with much anxiety by those who
have taken an interest in the Bible reading cues
ton. As general thing the schools were opened
with appropriate exercises. In the up town war dis
the exercises began usual with the reading of the
Bible; but in the lower wards more recaicitrant
disposition exhibited, and in many of the schools
therein its reading, notwithstanding the severe
resolution passed by the Board was entirely dis
pensed with The heads of the different depart
schools received instructions from the trustees to
open their schools in the same form which they OBJ
served be ore vacation, and as consequence there
was no reading of the Bible with but one or two
exceptons in the schools of those wards In school
No. %, Sixth ward, the exercises began with a
chant, but, according to the instructions of the
trustees, the customary chapter from the Scrip
lures was omitted About $50 were present in the
male department, about 160 in the female and 400
In the primary, larger attendance than was ex-
pected the first day.
In school No. 80 Baxter street. the Bible hereto

$50 in all departments.
The teachers in these wards are in a dilemma
II they read the Bible according to the resolution
they render themselves liable to dismissal by the
local boards, and il they do not, their paw is stop-

however, that they are right in obeying the local

morning, (Tuesday,) an extensive robbery was
committed in this vicinity. 1t appears that some
persons unknown broke into the store of Mr. Ezeki-
ell Matthews, about two miles from Bel-Air, on the
road leading to Frederick, and carried off goods to
the amount of upwards of $500, consisting of silks,
musins, boots, shoes, &c. They then proceeded to
the stables of Mr.. John Ward, a resident Of this
pace, and took therefrom horse valued at about
SIPS, belonging to Mr.. n. B. Holland, and a carry
all valued at about $50. 1t then appears that the
thieves, having stored the vehicle with the plumber
and taking circuitous route, proceeded to Bati-
more. Mr.. Matthews has gone in pursuit of them,
and we hope he will recover his property.
