SCOTLAND,S MAIDEN MAR
TYR.

The following extract embodies an ep-
ic in history most touchingly told. We
will not add to the picture We cannot do
it,
If to words so beautifully and tender
ly set forth the tender sympathy which
Christ, as their Head, cherished for his
beloved people, could venture to add
any that ever fell from mortal lips, / sho'd
select those of Margaret Wilson, Scot
lands Maiden Msrtyr.
Some two hundred years ago, there
was q dark period of suffering in this
land, when deeds of bloody cruelty were
committed on Gods people, not outdone
by Indian butcheries. One day the tide
is flowing in the SIoway Firth, rushing
like race horse with snowy name, to the
shore. 1t is occupied by groups ofweep-
ing spectators. They keep their eyes
fixed on two objects out upon the wet
sands. There, two woman, each tied
fast by their arms and limbs to q stake,
stood within the sea mark; and many an
earnest PRAYER is going mp t" heaven, that
Christ, who bends from the throne to the
sight, would help them now in the hour
of need. The 81 lest OF the two is stakod
farthest out. Margaret, the young mar
tyr, stands bound, fair sacrifice, near
the shore. Well, on the big pillows
come, kissing to their naked feet; on and
further on they come, death riding on the
top of the waves, and eve by those ten
der women with unh nching courage
The aters rise and rise, till amid q scream
and cry of terror from the shore, the less
eniug form of her that had death to face
is lost in the foam Of the surging wave.
1t recedes, bat only to return; and now,
the sufferer is gasping for breath, the
death struggle is begun; and now for
Margarets trial, md hcr nolle answer
"What see you yonder?' said their muir
derers, as, while the water rose coll or
her own limbs, they pointed her atten-
ton to her fellow confe>sor, in the sutfo-
eating agonies ola protracted DEATH
Response, full of the boldeSt faith and
| brightest hope, and all the divine unfath-
omed consolation of my text to you, she

of his own members" Brave and glori

The three Measures.

Three important measures have passed
the House of Reprcsentatives-the Home
stead Bill, the Bill to suppress polygamy,
and the Bill TO admit Kansas into the
Union. These measures, all so eminent
" just, received every Republican vote.
In the House, nearly all the Demo
Gratis voted against the suppression OF Pc
lygamy. Why? Because Brigham Young
the grand Turk of the Mormon Harem
is a pro-slayery man, DESTROYS of estab-
fishing slavery in Utah.
In the Senate, the Homestead and Kan
sas Bills will probably be defeated by the
Democrats. Why? The first for the
openly avowed reason, that by giving free
homes to laboring men, and thus encoar
aging the rapid settlement of our vast
western territories BY industrious laborers
Democrats arc fearful that the Republi-
can sentiment will soon become dominant
in the Federal Government, and SO De-
nocracy tries to crush this benificent
measure. It is true that some Northern
Democrats favor it, but it is equally tue
TINT the party, as such, bitterly oppose it
and it can triumph only by the defeat of
that party. The admission of Kansas is
opposed simply because she wishes to
come in as free, Repub lean State
Democrats once tried to force her in with
Il slave Constitution which her people re-
pudiated, but now she is denied admit
lance hy majority of that party.
VIII the people of the North sustain a
party whose policy is like thisl Next
November will determine.

A GRAND AscENsIoN.-From an ora
ton of John Minor Bolts, we extract this
Glars.
"The talons of that proud bird which
tore the flag of Irelsnd's oppressor from
the cloud-picrcing topmast, viii III for sue
cessive centuries pierced the belt of Orion
as he wheeled his nightly course in the
heavens, will not pause to clutch with
fierce ire and to scatter in thousand
shreds the breeze-faunting emblems OF
oceanic pseudo sovereignty. Gentlemen,
the back of that glorious fowl will dart
with the velocity of lightning to avenge
the wrongs Of outraged Ireland, and to
indicate the bleeding wounds of the
sons Of the glorious fatherlaud."
But suppose Orion should take the top
mast out of his belt, and wreathing it in
the rainbow emblems of pseudo sover-
eighty, hit the bird sockdologer with
the butt end, how would that strike the
glorious fowl, Mr.. Bottss

FIDELITY.

Never forsake friend. When enem-
les gather thick and fast around him
when the word dark and cherries, then
is the time to try true friendship. Those
who turn from the scene of distress or of
fer reasons why tn y should be extending
their sympathy md aid, betray their by
pocrisy, and prove that selfish motives
only prompt and move them. If you
have friend who loves you-who has
studied your interest aud happiness-de-
Tended you when prosecuted and troub-
led, be sure to sustain him in his adver-
sity. Let him feel that his ferlner KIN l.
ness is appreciated, and that his friend
ship was not lavished on you for nought.
Real fidelity may be rare, but it exists
n the heart. Who has not seen and felt
its powers They only deny its worth
sn / power, who have never loved friend,
happy. The good and the kind, the af-
fectionats and the virtu Jus, see and feel
this heavenly principle, fer it ia fruit
gathered from :. sacred germ, implanted
bv heaven in mans bosom. And true
fidelity has its rewards. It may Dc
sighted By some, overlooked others, but
pure minded men cultivate and cherish
fond and uadyilg love for it.

work.

Work is powerful. There is Latin
proyerb which says it can conquer every
thing. We believe it can overcome even
the Democratic party, but to accomplish
this end it must be judicious, resolute,
persistent. Some time since, Republi-
can Pierce Co. Club was organized for
the purpose Of working. We see no re-
suits from it yet, and now is the time for
effort. The principles of the Republican
party would be heartily accepted by the
gfeat mass of Northern Democrats, if
they were fairly presented and fairly con-
sidered, and now is the time to place the
proper documents in the hands of those
who will otherwise vote against us. A
month or two later, and party feeling will
be aroused and argument be of CO m para
lively little avail. Will net the chairmen
of the town organizations attend to this
matter Immediately. To do anything eff
fectively requires time, trouble, money!
There are many very excellent men in the
Republican party who desire to have its
principles triumph. They are opposed
to all tricks and knavery in politics, and
desire to see honest men and honest
measures honestly supported and sustain
ed. Will such men take hold of the
work! Will they pay as we'll as pray |?
Will they contribute to pay for and cir
culate able Republican documentsa 1t
is by work and by money that political
victories are achieved. 1t is the organic

the Republicans of Pierce Co. take hold
