ENERGY.--So great is the effect Of mere
energy as the predOminating quality in a
character, that Indifferent plans pressed
with resolute vigor often reach trium-
phant success; while far superior designs, if
carried out in common spirit, fail alto
gether or fall very short Of the expectations
formed of them. In common life, though
determined pushing often succeeds, it some
times fails from the distaste it causes. In
great affairs, whore it is not favor, but APP
preheusion or contest that induces success,
the energy wlich threatens or forces mostly
gets the best of the business. The present
time furnishes a remarkable instance of
this; for, except the battles of the Italian
campaign, the successes of Louis Napoleon
have been chiefly gained by a determination
to attain them. A still more remarkable
Instance is that of Garibaldi. whose Won
derful energy has just effected results un-
paraleled In history; for though revolutions
as startling may have been more obvious.
and success less entirely owing to single
man. Energy, indeed. ,.is not the only quail
ity of this wonderful hero; for all his quail
tiles are wonderful, especially his simple
magnanimity and child like faith. But it is
energy, and the gift Of in.us ng energy into
others, that most conduces to Garbald's
success.

AN INDIAN GIRLS LOvE.--A correspond
ent of the Missouri Democrat writing from
WyandOtt, Kansas, tells the following: A
young and beautiful Indian girl OF this
place, gave her guileless heart to pale
face. youth named Neal, an assistant in
the Recorders office. He evidently recip-
rocated her passion aud it was generally un-
derstood that their fortunes would be link
ed together, but alas, the youth concluded
not to take the dusky maiden to his bosom,
and resolved to abandon her and the town
forever. She was advised Of his determin.
alton, aud her sister resolving to avenge a
sisters wrongs. borrowed pistol to "kill a
big rat" and meeting him In building on
the leyee waiting for the packet, demanded
of him that he should marry her sister,
which he refused to do. She then present
ed the pistol and threatened to shoot him
unless he consented, and he promptly re-.
considered, and said he would-prObably
deciding thata place beside the Indian
maid was preferable TO an untimely death.
She then went for her sister and Justice
of the Peace, but in the meantime pale
faced brave had fed the town, and we after
wards learned, took the packet at Quindary
three miles distant. After the girl learned
of his escape, she was enraged TO such
pitch, that we felt satisfied his beautiful
picture would never again be taken ia the
bosom of any other conilding woman, If she
had methim then.

CoNPLExioN.-M. Abode, learned French
traveller, declares the complexion Of the
human race to be so entirely dependent on
the mode of nourshment. that he has beheld
in Nubia whole races of negroes. who, from
the entire use of animal food, present as
fine a carnation as the inhabitants of South
ern Europe. In Algeria, it has long been
the subject Of remark, that the butchers.

THE SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

From the dust and gloom Of basement room
mid rollers and wheels and bands,
Where the pressman watches his busy loom
With inky face and hands.
Where the teening press With shudderlng throe,
To the living page gives birth,
Each shiver and jar felt wide and far
Over the busy earth
From the dust and gloom Of this noisy room
Flashes a spirit bright,
DER mountain and lea. Oer land and sea,
wingng its arrowy fight.
Der land and sea, DER mountain and lea,
motley burden 1t bears
Freedom for slaves, and bonds FOR the free,
Bright hopes and sckening fears.
MANY an eve as il comes looks bright
That will dim when its tale is told
Hearts beating high its wings fash by,
Grow suddenly still and cold
The blushing cheek fond secrets speak
As il whispers loved one's name
Or the smouldering fire Of hate and ire
Burst forth In consuming flame.
Down the busy street. trod BY huFrying feet, .
II speeds on lightning wings,
And few too busy to stop and greet
The tdings that It brings;
At the brokers' board II utters a word
That pales their cheeks with fright
Whispers freedom nigh, and the exile's eye
With sudden joy is bright.
By the dungeon drear II fingers to hear
The captive patriots groan.
Then blows blast that shakes with rear
Tie despOt on his throne
O'er her babes soft sleep the young wife keeps
Her watch Mt evening gray,
In the glowing embcrs tracing the face
OF tile dear one far away,
Where the wild waves dash with Numbering crash
Upon the frozen shore,
Where the dying prayer and the shrek oil despair
Are drowned by the tempests roar.
Sadly and slow does the Spirit go
The young wife's home 20 seek,
And the sralding tears from a Widows eyes,
Fail on orphans cheek.
O'er mountain lea, DER land and sea,
Itspeeds with arrowy fight,
And the earth il famed by its freshenng wing,
And glows in its spreading light;
The owls and the bats with startled cry,
Whirr OH to their cayerns drear

And Tyranny covers in fear
The clankng chain IL burst in twain,
And myriad voices bless
