The FUNERAL OF Mr.. DowNGE.-The funer-
al services of our lamented fellow-citizen,
Mr.. John Downie, took place yesterday after
noon at o'clock, at his residence on Rock
well street. The attendance was very large,
comprising the members of the Bigelow
Lodge Of Masons, the St. Andrews Society,
the Burns Curling Club, the Board of the
Firemen's General Association, Alert Hose
Company, and Engine Companies I, ., 8, 4,
5, Z, 8, Q, and 10, besides a large ooncOurse
Of family friends.
The untimely death Of Mr.. Downie is Sc
verely felt, and depiored not only by those
of his own eountrymen who reside among US,
but by all classes. He was a man greatly res =
pscted by every one to whom he was known,
and the circle of his friends was unusually
large. The expressions of sorrow, at tidings
of the melancholy accident which had be-
fallen him, were deep and universal.
The funeral exercises were conducted by
Rev. F. T. Brown. At the grave the usual
tribute was paid by the lodge of which he
was a member, and sprigs of evergreen were
thrown by each member upon the coin.
At a special meeting of of the Board of
Firemeu's General Association, held Feb.
20, 1851, the following preamble and reso-
Iutions were unanimously adopted
WHEREAS, It has pleased Divine Provi-
denee to remove from among US brother John
Downie, member Of the Board, and a
prominent mem Der of the Fire Department,
and who has long been identified with US,
RESOLVED, That in all our Intercourse with
Brother Downie, we have ever found him
all that could be desired in any man as a
faithful friend, endeariug husband and faith
or and that in his loss we lose one that can
not soon be replaced.
RESOLVED That we deeply sympathize with
his sorrowing family and friends, in this,
their hour of affliction, in losing in the
prime Of life one held dear to them by
earthly ties.
Resolued, That in token of our esteem for
Brother Downie, we will turn out in q body
to pay the last sad rites to his memory.
ResolUed, That a copy of these resolutions
be published in the city papers, and sent to
the family of out departed Brother.

For the Leader.
OUR FLAG AND COUNTRY.



They say the golden stars are falling
From that dear flag, 30 long our pride;
That a eOnfederate band are rending
Her gems from Freedoms peerless bride.
OH stay then; ye her faithful lovers,
Who at her feet In worship bow
Il Is her darkest hour OF trial;
Gather around your mistress now.
Disperse the rufians let them never
Load that fair form with servile chains;
Already have their brutal fingers,
On her white garments left their stains
On rally quickly to the rescue
Ali Fe who'd earn patriots name,
Who So red hold within your bosoms
Your honor and your country's fame.
And raise on high our hOnored banner;
Cursed be the hand that would remove
One star from out the shining cluster,
Gracing the idol Of our love
See the free winds embrace our darlingi
Greetings they give W IN boisterOus glee.
God bless it, and defend Il ever.
Our glorious flag Of liberty.

"ATTENTIoN, YOUNG MEEV'-We perceive,
by the advertisement of Messrs. Horace L.
Hegeman Co., of New York, that the re-
nowned "stimulating onguent" invented by
DR.. BeIlingham for healthy stimulation in
the growth of beard or whiskers, has now
had its American market eonfded to their
agency. The high reputation of this article
in London, Paris, and other cities of Europe,
seems to have been gully justified by expe-
rience in this country. We find that its
praises are le-echOed among all classes. A
few weeks are said to prove its almost magi-
cal influences upon the beard and whiskers'
The British volunteers have male such free
use fit as to attract the attention of The
London Punch. See advertisement of Messrs.
Hegeman & Co. in another column.

PARALLEL OF THE MAN OF WIT, AND THE
MAN OF SENSE

The man of sense cutivates the good will of soci.
ety makes allowances for the humors of his fellow
creatures bears with their inirmities; and is ap-
plauded without being envied. On the contrary,
the wit full of himself sacrifices to his selflove that
of mankind and is in state of hostility with the
world. The man of sense by making good order
and decency the rule of his actions acquires, as he
merits universal respect; the wit imagines himself
to be a privileged person, allowed to dispense, not
only with the essence, but the common forms OF
good breeding and meets with his deserts in an
almost general contempt. The former, always dis
Greet, even in his most facetious moments is STU
dious rather to be useful than display the extent
of his requirements. The latter courts applause
as profeSSed wit, he is perpetually torturing his
fancy to strike out some short lived scintillation and
after all is rdiculed. The one is as unaSsuming as
the other is arrogant and ostentatious. The man of
sense thinks with judgment, and expresses his senti
ments with precision the wit oyerchargeS his dis
course with ornament at the expense of the idea
Sound sense is the object of the former; point the
the whip cream of pleasantly, and overlooks what
is obnoxious to i'll natured censure; the other gives
scope to the maevolence of satire, and breaks out
into invective against defects that he is chargeable
with himself The man of sense is aware of the
mutabity OF fortune be is prepared against Its
vicSSitudeS, and meets them without striking your
of wit is often cast down by trifling incident,
and is unshetered amidst the storm of adversity.-
The former aims to excel in his profession, and
makes duty pleasure the latter for the most part
sacrifices duty to the means of amusement To
conclude, the man of sense observes Just mein on
all occasions sedulous avoid extremes whilst the
man of wit overleaps the line, and is ever running
into them.

PoL1TIcAL GENERALs.-The Northern papers are
loud in their complaints at the appointmer IS of
brokenh hdown politicians TO lead their armies. Hut-
Ter a: Fortress Monroe, Banks at Baltimore Fremont
in the Mississippi Valley, Schenck at Vienna, and
now Dix to lead the great central army of invasion,
all old party hacks, are more than they can digest
Every paper has its fling at the Washington authori
ties and predicts long catalogue of disasters from
such incapable Generals 1.-The incompetency (says
the Herad) exhibited by these politicians in COM
mand at Big Bethel and Vienna, does not seem to
have beaten the first particle of common into
the heads of the Washington authorities; but on
the contrary, they continue in the same old path,
and are evidently preparing for another wholesale
slaughter OF our gallant volunteers led on by party
hacks"
The same paper wishes to know why that accom-
plished veteran Gen. Wool is entrusted with no
command. Gen. Scott gave an answer to this some
time ago. when he told him his health was too inirm
for active operations
Certainly, the Northern hosts have fallen upon
evil times. With 200, 900 mighty brave men in the
field and no General fit to command them, their
dltion is pitiabe.

NOBODY'S HURT.
BY h. LANSING BURROWS.

By H. LANSING BURROWS.
Oh where is the whr of the busy wheel,
And the sound and the hum of the spindle and reel,
And the bright red light
From the anvil bright,
As the broad chested man slowly fashions his steel?
And why is all still like the black-curtained bier
But why, OH yes why comes that voice on our ear
"NObOdy's hurt! NObOdy's hurti"
Obi where is the peace of the cottage home
Where comfort is sweeter than under the dome
Of the merchant prince,
With its gay worldly tints,
To whose portal grim poverty never dare Gomez
Is that comfort all gone, and that peace all fOwn'
And yet does there come, like deathy moan,
"NObOdys hurt! Nobody's hurt!"
see the auctioneers flag hangs upon the loved door,
And the merchants of gold roughly trample the floor,
And the relics of old
Are all handled and sold,
And their sacredness flies with themselves evermore;
While the halfshed sob and the heart. breaking sigh
Are checked by the uneeing purchasers cry
"NobOdy's hurt! Nobody's hurt!"
And So, mid the crushes and wrecks of the time
When men are dashed down from positions sublime,
When the poor man must die
With despair in his eye,
When must have bread if they get it by crime;
Like the hali-muttered rage of grayehauntng
"NObOdy's hurt NObOdy's hurtf"
Oh come, heartless man, tread the fequented street
U lbe vicious poor where the scum Of earth meet
In the gaTrets and holes,
There are hundreds of souls,
Whose footsteps Slow but whose vengeance is feet
And there mid the novels of flesh and of dirt,
By misery, by hunger, by grim death begirt-
Somebody's hurt! Somebody's hurt"
And look in that coffin, upon that pnched face,
And in the child aeaments endeavOr 10 trace,
In days that are past,
Before poyerty's blast,
The remnants of beauty, and sweetness and grace:
And gaze on that father haggard and thin,
And look at that heart. SO wthered within
"Somebody's hurt! Somebody's hurt"
Then from the Streets from the vales from the hills
Then from the rivers, and streamets, and rillS,
From a nation of men,
Determined again
To rid their loved land from its burdensome ills,
A CRY shall arise like clarion clear,
Sounding loudly and shrill till it reaches his ear,
'SOmcbOdys hurt!-vengeance is near!"

PoIsoN.-BE CAUTIOUS overheard threat,
made yesterday, by two persons in Charlotte, that
they intended to prepare food well poisoned for the
benefit of animals in the regular habit of jumping
their fences and destroying their crops.
On inquiry we learned that the said animals were
mch COWS, but that they were so poor that their
milk would serve very we'll for bluing muslin.
Our advice is to those who are starving their
cattle and turn them out to hunt food or destroy the
gardens of their neghbors not to use the milk, for
there may be poison in it. Owners of lean and
hungry fence Jumpers had best be on their guard
