A KID GLovFD SAMSON.

A Correspondent of the Chicago Journal of the
Oath ult., relates the following feat Of strength, to
which be was witness
On Sunday last, about nine o'clock A. NJ, as the
train westward was within three or four miles Of
Chicago, on the Fort Wayne road, a horse was
discovered on the silt work and between the rails.
The train was stopped, and workmsn were sent to
clear the track. 1t was then discovered that the
body of the horse was resting on the ~sleepers. His
legs, having passed through the open spaces. were
TOO short to reach the ground. Boards and rails
were brought and the open space in front of the
horse filed up. making a plapk road for him in
case he should be got up, and by means Of ropes
one of his fore feet was raised, and there matters
came 10 a halt. 1t seemed that no strength or
stratagem could avail to release the animal. Lev
ers of boards were splintered and the men tugged
at the ropes in vain when a passenger who was
looking quietly on, stepped forward leisurly. slip
ped of a pair of tinted kids seized the horse by
the tail, and With tremendous force, hurled him
forward upon the plank road, No one assisted
and indeed the whole thing was done so quickly

THE SAXON HEART.

The Saxon heart bears not control
Like stately streams upon their course,
The tide swells on within the soul,
O'erpowNsing every adverse force.
The brave, good heart, that takes its stand,
Resisting wrong ,abhoring shame,
Born like q prince to take command,
Regardless still Of praise or blame.
The matchless heart in bold emptise,
The conquering heart, the heart 80 strong,
The heart Of heroes, brave or wise,
The heart that always rights the wrong,
The race that erst in forest drear
The deadly arrow swiftly sped,
Hath dropped tho winged shaft and spear,
And wields the winged thought instead.
The race that once went bravely forth,
To beard the wild boar in his den,
Now meets the tyrant in his wrath,
And boldly claims the tights of men.
As in those Saxon wilds of old,
Tho bowstring echoed far and wide,
The words Of truth ring out like gold,
The same old spirit sanctifeG.

SOMETHING ABOUT ScHooLs.-We knew a man
who last summer hired four coils pastured on a
farm, some FIVE miles distant. At least once in
two weeks he got into a wagon and drove over to
see how his juvenile horses Jared. lie made min
ute inquiries Of the keeper as to their health,
their daily watering, ETC.; he himself examined
the condition Of the pasture, and when q dry sea-
son came on he made special arrangements to
have a daily allowance of meal, and he was care
full to know that this was regularly supplied.
This man had four children attending school,
kept in a small building erected at the crossroads.
Around this building en- three sides is space Of
land six feet wide; the fourth side is on a line with
the street. There is not a shade tree in sight oil
the building. OF the interior of the school house
we need not speak. We wish to state one fact
only. This owner Of those colts, aud the father oil
those children, has never been in that school house
to inquire after the comfort, health or mental food
daily dealt out to his offspring. In the latter part
of the summer We CHANGED to ask, "Who teache:

plO yed in the public service at Washington. His
name was G., he was from Tennessee, the son Of
q widow, a neigbbor Of tho President, on which
account the old hero had a kind feeling for him,
and always got him out of bis difficulties with
some of the higher officials, to whom his singular
interferences were distasteful.
Among other things, it is said for him, that
while he was employed in the General Post Office,
on one occasion he had to copy a letter of Major
H., a high officer, in answer to an application
made by an old gentleman in Virginia or Penn
sylvania for the establishment of a new Post OFF

language; in this letter be sail the application
could not be granted. in consequence Of the
applicants proximity to another Office. When
the letter came into CTS hands to copy, being a
great stickler for plainness, he altered proximity

HARD SHE'LL BAPTIsrs.-This sect 1.-THE Hard

good supply of the creature comforts, and among
them as the most important, a plenty Of whisky.

THE ATALANTIC MONTHLY. Htr
BEGINNING OF THE FIFTH VOLUME

In assuming the control of the Atlantic Month
ly, its Lew proprietors deem it scarcely needful
to spend many words in assurances or promises.
The congratulations and good wishes they have
received from all parts of the country seem TO jus.
tify them in the confidence that their own char.
acter as publishers will be accepted by the numer.
Gus readers and friends of the Magazine as a war.
rant that they will do everything in their power 10
increase it's interest, TO enlarge its circle o: atlrac-
ton, and to raise its standard of ability in all
departments.
They think 1t proper to say, simply, that no
change will be made in the general character Of
the magazine; that all the writers whose contribu-
tons have established it in the popular favor will
continue to make it their medium of communicA-
ton with the public; and that the relations of the
publishers with authors on both sides the Atlantic
will enable them to add materially to the variety,
interest, and value of its pages. 20 a'r
The Atlantic has never been, and will never be,
a sectional journal. Its publishers acknc wledkO
no parallels Of latitude in the Republic of Letters;
andT while they will judge of any article offered
them. not by the source whence it comes, but by
its own intrinsic worth, they will at the same time
endeavor to maintain It's character as q periodical
in which earnest thinkers may find expression,
unhampered by fear Of that narrow censorship
which what is loudest. but not deepest, in Public
Opinion would fain establish.
TERMS. Three Dollars per annum, or twenty
five cents a number. Upon the receipt Of the sub
~scription price, the publishers will mail the work
to any part Of the United States, prepaid. Sab
scriptions may begin with either the first or any
subsequent number. The postage of the Atlantic
is thirty.s six cents a year, if prepaid. ovid sas4
The pages of the Atlantic are stereotyped, and
back numbers can be supplied.
CLUBs.-For Ten Dollars the publishers will
send I've copies of the Atlantic for one year,
the subscribers to pay the postage.
Clergymen, Teachers, and Postmaster will 70.
ceive the work for Two Dollars q year. -
Booksellers and Newsmen will obtain the terms
