heart like the rest of his brethren an infamous
Abolitionst and an Infde and " HON we would not
believe on oath. so little respect have We for the
honor or truthfniness of any such characters.-
We have earthly confidence either IN Northern
Yankees or German forei sners. who are born and

icaI winnings about the South, slavery, owning
negroes and the like. We regard all such as
traitors in disguise. and contemplate wTetches.
deserving not the friendly regard of sentlen en-
and patriots, but the halter OF the hangman. We
know not who a "German Citizen is, and care
less, but he has, at all events, our opinion of him
and his allies.

A BACHELORS WoEs.--Whata pitt
iful thing an old bachelor is, with his
cherries house and rueful phiz, on
bitter cold night when the fierce winds
blow, and the earth is covered with a
foot of snow. When the fire is out
and in shivering dread he slips meath
the sheets of his lonely bed. How he
draws up his toes, still encased in
yarn hose, and buries his nose meath
the chilly bed clothes, that his nose
ard his toes, still encased in
yarn hose, may not froze. Then he
puffs and blows, and swears that
knows no mortal on earth ever suffered
such woes, abs and obs, and with his
limbsnearlyfroze, to slumberin silence
he goes. In the morn when the cock
crows, and the sun just rose, from
meath the bed clothes pokes the baehe-
lors nose, as you may suppose when
he hears the wind blows, and he sees
the window all froze, why back meath
the clothes pops the poor fellows nose,
for if from the bed he rose to put on
his clothes, he'd surely froze.

Of the cup, while the old gentleman
was STOPPING over to recover his pen
from the floor, when another passing
along behind, snapped his fingers
quick under the drinkers ear. which
caused him suddenly to eject the con-
tents ofhis mouth over the pedagogue's
bald pate. Standing upright, with
his face and hair dripping, he shouted
aloud:
"Mho did that !" The party unan-

TIL e SOUTH.

Men of the South look up,
There are omens in the sky
The murky clouds are gathering,
Red meteors fash on high
And there are means and mutterings
Sent.up by heaving waves
Our Eagle poises on his wings,
And shrieks DER patriots graves.
Men of the South ! the brand
Hath fared upon the heath;
Its fame hath tinged the leaden clouds,
And Kissed its song of death.
The rife and the murderous knife
Have seen the light of day,
And ruhian, prepared for strife,
Stood up in bold array.
Men of the South your homes,
Where peace and plenty smiled.
Have been assailed by thieving bands,
And by their tread defiled.
The canting traitors of the North,
With lying tongues declaim
And spit at you their slime and froth,
Their venom and their fame.
Men of the South take heed
Be watchful and be firm
Ye have to smite the giants head,
And crush the poisonous worm.
Arrayed around your chartered right,
Strong in your holy cause,
Be this your cry in valor's fight
Our State-our Rights-our Laws.

tratiye ofthe Yankee talent at amaking
things pay" A man who sent tufkies
to market also swept chimneys for a
living, tying cord around the neck Of
the bird SO as not to choke it too sud
denly and then drawing Il up and
down the chimney, SO that the iiutter
of the expiring struggle might do ths
sweeping. The papers tell Us also,
that there is a grocer in Pennsylyania
who is SO mean that he was seen to
catch fly off his counter, hold him up
by his hind legs, and look into the
cracks of his feet TO see if he hadn't
been stealing some Of bis sugar.
