" The State Journal still continues its
assaults on the private character of General
Foster. The Editor of that paper should re-
member that in SO doing he is giving the lie,
to the published declarations of Mr.. Curtin
in his Philadelphia speech. Mr.. Curtin said
in substance, that Gen. Foster was high
minded and honorable man, and that nothing
could be urged against his reputation as a
public or private citizen. Which are we to
believe; Mr. Curtin or the journal. The ma
licious falsehoods which the Journal is endeay-
oring to give currency to, viii, if we not
much mistaken, return to plague the inyen-
tors. Surely Mr.. Curtin is not vile enough
to secretly encourage these attacks on the
private character of Gen. Foster.

ES The great fight between Sayers the
English bully, and Heenan the Benecia boy,
came off, or was to come off in England on
last Saturday. This disgraceful affair has
created remarkable excitement on both sides
of the Atlantic, and is the principal topic of
conversation even with those who would feel
insulted if classed with bruisers buffers and
''sich like cattle" We hear it daily pro-
claimed that this is an age of religion, light,
refinement, and knowledge, and yet we see a
couple of fighting blackguards absorbing pub
lie attention in England and the United States,
and eclipsing the fame of the poets. heroes and
Statesmen of those countries. Hurra for this

II Is not in the parting hour when those we
fondly love
Have breathed TO Us their last farew ell, and
winged their way above;
Nor yet, when in the darksome grave we
lay them to their rest,
The sharpest pang of sorrow rends the
stricken mourner's breast,
'Tis when we seek our lonely home,
and meet no more the smile
Which could the darkest cloud dispel, and
every care beguile.
And when We meet around the board, or at
the hour of prayer,
'Tis there the heart most feels its loss-the
loved ones are not there.
And thus while days and months steal on,
as memory brings to view
The vision of departed joys, our grief is
stirred anew;
Though faith may own Fathers hand, yet
nature will rebel
And feel how hard it is to say, "He hath
done all things well;"
But why thus yield to fruitless grief7 are
they not happier far,
The sainted ones for whom we mourn, than
we who linger here7
Oh mournful memories of the past, ye wear
our lives away.
Ye haunt US in our dreams by night, and
through each weary day.
rhe home which late, like Ejen's bower, in
blooming beauty smiled,
Ye make barren wilderness, desert waste
and wild.
Our hearts should glow with grateful love
to Him whose watchful eye
Saw dangers gathering around their path,
and called then to the sky;
Not long shall we their loss deplore, for
soon the hour will come.
When we with those so fondly loved, shall
slumber in the tomb;
Then let the remnant of our days be to His
service given,
Who hid our idols in the grave lest we should
fail of Heaven.
Not willingly the Lord aflicts, nor grieve:
the sons of men
/ 'Tis but to wean our hearts from earth, anc
break the powers of sin,
He saw ms wandering from his paths, anC
| sent the Christening rod
To turn our feet from errors way, and bring
US home to God;
Shall we defeat His wise design, anc
waste our days in tears7
Ungrateful for the numerous gifts tha
Heaven in mercy spares.
Let faith and hope be cherished still, ant
brighter days shall dawn,
And plants Of peace shall spring anew from
seed in sorrow sown.
