MEMORY.

Softtv Ger Eny spirit stealing
Cozses the spell of memory,
scsely like the moonlight cleaning
Ger the rippIes of the sea.
Gently, like soft pillows laving'
On the dim and distant shore,
When the waves have ceased their hea' ding,
And the tempest hushed its roar.
Like soft music, sweetly blending
Sadness with its streams OF light
Like the pensive twilight lending
Luster to the gloom Of night.
Like the dreamy twilight ii'IgiBg

A "Ten Strike"

We copy the following paragraphs,
simply remarking-what some of our
readers may not remember-that the
New York Express was always biggot-
ed "Know-Nothing paper, and its Edi-
tor, James Brooks, the most violent hater
of Catholicism the country has ever pro-
duced. The Express is now Copper
head sheet, and its Editor a member of
Congress:
+ CHE REPUBLICANS PREPARING FOR A
New CHANGE OF SKIN.-The Republi-
cans and Abolitionists of the West are
calling meetings of the "War Democra-
cy"-that to be their ne,o name-next
year.
This year, it is "Union;" the year be-
fore Republican," the year before,
peoples Party" the year before-in
some quarters-"Ameriean;p the year
before, MAINE Law" In 1864 there
viii be no Abolitionists, no Republicans,
no Temperance men, no Maine-Lawites,
no anything, but war Democrats.
Then Wendell Phillips, Gerrit Smith and
Horace Greeley will all be 'War Demo
erats. ~ r Express.
We had heard of the above before,
but it seems not improbable. Since the
Express has become a favorite Demo
cratic journal and Mr.. James Brooks is
Democratic member of Congress elect
by Irish votes, we don't see why any
body should not be called a Democrat
who may happen to take a fancy to the
name. We don't care about it; but il
anybody else does. We would as soon cal
him that as any thing else.

by the men making their way to it on

driven down as a substratnm; on this

the ordnance was foated up by night,

PIaEoN FEArHERs AND LosoEvITY.-In

PIGEON FEATHERS AND LoNGEvITY-In
one of the rural districts of Massachusetts
lives little, weazen-faced, antique man,
ofremarkable lingual developments. This
old man, though near a railroad junction,
never set foot in railcar, or was more
than fifty miles from home. 1t can hard
" be wonderful that he is somewhat su-
pertitious. In conversation, recently, rel
ative to sick neighbor, whose death had
been daily and hourly expected, he thus
sagely delivered himself: 81 don't believe
but what that are sick man has pigeon
feathers in his bed, for they say whoever
sleeps on pigeon feathers never'll die.
There was old Miss--,that lived along
several years after the doctors had given
her up. For long time she kept her
hand going pit-a-pat on her breast just
like f,ttering pigeons wing. When
her friends were all tired out tending her,
and wondered what made her live on 80,
stranger, hearing of the case, came into
the house and asked if there was any pig
con feathers around her. Now her rela-
tives were great hunters and caught swarms
of pigeons and of course they saved the
feathers aud made use of them, and had a
pigeon feather pillow between the upper
and under bed. By just pulling out this
pillow, the old woman dropped quietly
away in fifteen minutes. So there must
be something salvating in feathers"
Won't this initiate the feather market ?
If SO, here is "a chance for fortune

A TAME BUTTERFLY.

One cold, bleak November morning
when the sky and all nature wore the
sullen, responding look 50 peculiar to ouI
climate at this season, a lady, who, fol
the first time, had risen from bed Of
sickness, went into an adjoining apart
ment, where she perceived gay and
beautiful butterfly in the window. AS.
tonished at finding this creature of flow
ers and sunshine in so uncongenial STU
alton, she watched his movements and
operations. As the sun came out for a
bright, brief space, it futtered joyously
about the window, and impaired to the
sick room an air of cheerfulness and hope.
Towards evening, however, the tiny crea-
ture dropped its wings; the lady then
placed it in glass tumbler on the mattel
piece. During the night hard frost
came on, and the room in consequence got
very cold. In the morning the butterfly
lay in the bottom of the tumbler, appar-
emily dead. The invalid, grieved that
her gentle companion of the previous day
should so soon perish, made some effort to
restore its fragile existence. She put it
on her own warm hand, and breathing
upon it, perceived it gave signs of return
ing animation she then once more placed
it in the glass house on the rug before the
fire. Soon the elegant little insect spread
out its manycolored wings and few to
the window, where the sun was shining
brightly. By.and-by the sun retired, and
the window-panes getting cold, the crea-
ture sank down on the carpet again, ap-
parently lifeless. The same means were
used to restore animation, and with the
same success. This alienation of life
and death went on for many days, till at
last the grateful little thing became quite
tame, and seemed to be acquainted with
its benefactress. When she went to the
window, and held out her finger, it would,
of its accord, hop upon it; sometimes it
would settle for an hour at time upon
her hand Or neck when she was reading
or writing. Its food consisted of honey;
drop of which the lady would put
upon her hand, when the butterfly would
uncurl its sucker, and gradually sip it up,
then it usually slipped drop of water in
the same way. The feeding only took
place once in three or four days. In this
manner its existence was prolonged
through the whole winter and part of the
following spring As it approached the
end of its career, its wings became quite
transparent, and its spirits apparently
detected. 1t would rest quietly in it's
crystal palace" even when the sun was
wooing it to come out, and, at last, one
morning in April, it was found dead
quite dead.

So During the reign of Bonaparte,
