very close links to the genius which the

Basil Montagu, the wife Of Barry Cornwall y
and the mother, Of Adelaide Procter-three
names which will be sacred to posterity Her
own mother also (Mrs. Basil Montagu) was,
socially, one Of the most eminent woman OF

PoLlTrqAL HONESTY AT HIGH PsEmux Ia

PoLITIcAL HONESTY AT HIGH PREMuM IN
CoNNEcTIcUT.-A Connecticut paper has a
paragraph which gives one curious idea OF
the Yankee integrity prevalent there. 1t
appears that a "poor, but honest" man was
offered fifteen dollars for his vote, at the re-
cent election, but the bribe was spurned. No
sooner did this strange self-denfal come to
the knowledge of the mans friends, than
they .'sent him barrel of -four, one hundred
pounds of meal, a bushel of rye, with perhaps
some other things, with the additional assur-
ance that he or his will never know want

deeds among his townsmen.p Such demon

The heroism displayed by the Benicia Bow,

applauded during the fight. Little, there
fore, did the small bands of Americans seated
around that ring expect to see it broken up.
That it was so, will be found too true, and
its motives seen too plainly, when our narra-

CHOICE POETRY.
The Press.
by J. B. MENNY.

The Press! the Press! the pride OF arts,
A radiant dawn fDrieIIs,
To guide in col stelaled lights,
The land where freedom dwells
To lead the progress Of the mind,
To spread the charms of peace,
And blend the human race in one,
When bIgOt strife shall cease
The Press the Press! bright gIows its beams,
Throughout our happy land,
Like star-groups in tho azure skies.
Its rays of light expand.
True knowledge Is a nations strength.
When reckless factions rise;
strength TO bud in harmony
The Empire OF The wise.
The Press! the Pross lis light has >lone,
Where Church and State, combined,
Have bent beneath despo!ic rule
The millions ofmankind.
But knowledge shall u!sPel the gloom,
The minds dire tyranny
And teach to all the first of truths
None but the wise are tree.
The Press the Press the Patriots hope,
Progressive as the are
Let knowledge, Truth, Equality,
Reveal tunes brighter page.
Let all the sons Of tOIl aspire.
Where virtuOus fame rs won;
Led By the star that rose on earth,
Iii the days Of WASHINGTON.
