DISSOLVE THE UNION

Dissolve the Union Who would part
The chain that binds us heart to heart
Each link was formed by sainted sires
Amid the Revolutions fires;
And coold-Oh, where so rich a hood1-
In Warren's and in Sumptor's blood.
Dissolve the Union Be like frnnce,
When "Terror" rear'd her bloody lance,
And man became destruc tons child,
And woman in her passions wild,
Danced in the life-blood of her Queen,
Before the dreadful guilotine.
Dissolve the Union Roll way
The spangled flag Of Glory's day;
Blot out the history of the brave,
And descerats each Patriots grave,
And then above tho wreck Of years,
Quaii an eternity of tears
Dissolve the Union Can it be,
That they who speak such words are free
Great God did any die to save
such sordid wretches from the grave
When breast to breast, and hand to hand,
Our patriot fathers freed the land?
Dissolve the Union Ho Forboar
The sword Of Damocles is there
Cut but n hair and earth shall know
A darker, deadier tale of woe
Than hstory's crimson tale has told,
Since Nero's cur in blood e'er roll'd.
Dissolve the Union Speak, ye hills,
Ie everlasting mountains cry;
Shrek out, ye streams and minglng rills,
And ocean roar in agony;
Dead heroes leap from Glorys sod
And shield the manor of your blood

SLIPPERY PEoPLE.-Thare is a class Of
people who resemble cells in their manner
of going through life. They are your
smooth people who slip through your
hand when you attempt to catch them,
and leave YOU wondering how they could
have escaped. the hand of morals, law
or right fails to hold them, and yet .hey
seem to recognise them all. A bargain
with such men always results in their
gain; there is some loop left for tEem to
hang an advantage upon; something that
will rebound to their particular glorifca-
ton or profit. They are splendid mana
gers of benevolent Institutions; occupy
high places in the moral world-for such
are not those men who get caught; and
if they get caught, they manage to slip
through are great mortgager's, lend mon
ey on the right sort of security, and nev-
er lose, and whichever way they fall they
light all right. |hey are politicians, and
always n anage to be on the winning side
In life they are unexceplionable, with
characters excellent. But they are slip
perry nevertheless, and even while praising
them as men may, in their short sighted
ness, and they wriggle through to the
end, the veil will be lifted and the time
that tries all do justice to them.

RURAL LIFE'-CultivatD loyo for the
country the serene joys which rural
life can afford are far preferable to the
noisy, and alas too often vicious gratifo
cations which we seek amid the wh.rl Of
a city life. The city as it were ties the
souls affections to the earih-the works
and ways Of the world in it too often hide
from our view the fair face Of nature, and
lead us to forget the glorious God who
made us, and to whom We are indebted
for life and health and all things. Napid
empty and artificial, are the joys of a city
life when compared with tho sOcrc de-
lights which rural residence can give TO
q mind rightly constituted. Solitary
communion with Nature is one Of the ho-
licst delights which the world can bestow

The 0ranpe Girl of Columbus.

At Columbus, Ohio, there has been for
some years past, lovely orange girl, known
to all as Elite, and of all respected. She
supported an aged mother by the sale of her
fruit, and never returned home with 4 full
basket. Everybody bought an orange Of
Elite, for all admired her, but it was with a
respectful admiration, she was so pure and
good. Elite was about sixteen, and when
the Union meeting Of the Kentucky, Tennes
see, and Ohio Legislatures took place at Co.
lumbus, a youthful member Of the Tennes-
see Legislature, strolling the city, was star
tied by q silvery voice asking, Buy an
orange, sir?" lie did buy one, and this
opened the way for conversation, in which
the girl artlessly revealed to the stranger the
poverty of her home, and the necessity of
her supporting her mother.
He was so struck with the girls manner
and singular beauty, that he secretly re-
solved to visit her home, and become more
intimately acquainted. lie did so, and after
successive visits, won the confidence and love
of the maiden, and the mothers consent to
their marriage; and when he went back to
his Southern home, it was with promise to
return in a fortnight for his bride. He
came, and now the manly Southerner and
the beautiful Orange Girl are man and wife.
He has taken her, the fairest Of the fair, to
his Southern home, to dwell with him, and
her aged mother, in opulence.
