POETRY.
The Dying Soldier.

Brother soldier, come up nearer,
For my limbs are growing cold;
And thy presence seemeth dearer,.
As thy arms around me fold.
am dying, soldiers, dying, -.
Soon you'll miss me from your camp;
And my form will soon be lying,
Meath the earth so cold and damp.
Brother soldier, come up nearer,
have something I would say;
Ere my eyes are closed forever,
To the lovely light of day.
am going, soldiers, going,
But my faith in God is strong;
I die happy-willing-knowing
That he doeth nothing wrong.
Tell my father, when yon greet him,
That in death I prayed for him;
And hope that I shall meet him,
In world that's free from sin.
!. Dearest mother, God assist her,
Now that she is growing old:
Say her boy would glad have kissed her,
When his lips grew pale and cold.
Brother soldier, catch each whisper,
IT'S my wife I'd speak Of now:
Tell, o! tell her how missed her,
When the fever burned my brow;
Tell her she must kiss my baby,
Like the kiss last impressed,
Hold her as when last ! held her,
Closely folded to my breast.
Tell my dear wife may God bless her,
She was very dear to me;
Would could once more caress her,
And her lovely face could see.
Tell the dear ones remember,
Every kindly parting word:
And my heart has been kept tender,
By the thoughts their memory stirred.
Brother soldier, come up nearer,
Press each hand before de-.
My good kind friends, I'm 10th to leave you
Receive my fond, my last goodbye,
Hank hear my Saviour calling,
IT'S his voice, know it well;
When I'm gone, o don't be weeping,
Soldiers, here's my last farewell.

A DEFINITION OF A YANKEE.-As the Yam
KEGS are creating no little excitement in the
commercial, political, and military world, the
following definition of a real genuine male
Yankee, may not be q miss:
A real genuine Yankee is full of animation,
checked by moderation, guided by determi-
nation, and supported by education.
He has a veneration corrected by tolera-
ton, and when reduced to aggravation, can
assume the most profound diss lmulation, for
the purpose of retaliation, always combined,
if possible, with speculation.
A live Yankee, just caught, will be found
not deficient in the following very peculiar
qualities:
He is selfdenying, self-relying, and al
ways trying, and into everything most con-
stantly prying.
He is a lover of piety, propriety, notoriety,
and Temperance society.
He is dragging, gagging, Dragging, striV-
lug, swopping, jostliDg, bustling, wrestling,
musical. quizzical, Astronomical, poetical,
philosophical, and comcal sort of charac-
ter, whose manifest destiny is to spread civil
lization to the remotest coruers of the earth,
with an eye always on the lookout for the
main chance.

DIPTHERIA.-A gentleman who has minis.
tered the following remedy for diptheria, says
that it has always proved effectual IN afording
speedy relief. Take a common tobacco-pire.
place live coal within the bowl, drop little
tar upon the coal, and let the patient draw
smoke into the mouth, and discharge it
through the nostrils. The remedy is safe and
simple, and should be tried whenever occasion
may require. Many valuable lives may be
saved, the informant confdentialIy believes,
by prompt treatment as above.

A SoCIABLE MAN.-Gov. Powell, Of Ken
lucky, was widely known for his social quail
tiles, and remarkable for establishing person
al intimacy with every one he met, in the
shortest possible time. Another distinguish
ed trait was that he chewed immense guam
titles of tobacco, which he always begged.
One of the governors new-found acquain-
tances happened to meet a nelghbor of the
governors, when the following conversation
ensued
"You are acquainted with Governor Pow
ell2"
"Oh, Yes. He's near neighbor."
" He's a very sociable man, amt he 2"
Remarkably So"
Well, thought SO. think he is one of
the most sociable men | ever met with in all
my life. Wonderfully sociable. l was in
troduced to him last summer, and he hadn't
been with me ten minutes before he begged
all the tobacco l had, got his feet up in my
lap, and spit all orer me-"
