The Star Spangled Banner.

Fling forth that proud banner whose glorious light
Trumphantly shines DER every ocean and sea;
Its stars will blaze brighter, darker the night
Spreads its gloom o'er the brave Of the land and
the tree. ...
Fling forth that proud bannsrl--ah whence was
that cry?
And hark to the summons the valleys reply,
+" Unsullied forever its brightness and fame l'
Flag of our country thou standard of glory
When menaced by traitors thy honor to save,
We welcome the field though so dreadful and CORY,
Ay welcome the combat, and welcome the grave.
Think of the blood which your fathers have she'd
Think of the blood which that banner has cost;
Then swear by their tombs and the fields where they
bed,
Not star shall be dimmed not tear shall be lost
When to battle aroused by the shrl trumpets sound
And the shouting of thousands come thundring afar
When the furious steeds with their charge shake the
ground
Midst the rage of the fight and the storm of the war
Oh, look to that banner its sight will inspire,
Your souls to high deeds of heroic renOwn--
Oh, look on that banner environed with fire,
And remember that flag is your cOuntry's-your own
Like a condor alarmed for the fate of her young,
From the cliffs of the Andes she darts through
the air
The clouds by her pinions all backwards are flung,
To the spoilers her bring alright and despair
Ye souls of the hills, from your mountains descend
In a whirwind of flame, like your fathers of yore,
On the foes of the banner and swear to defend
Its stripes and its stars until time be no more.

The Hearts Review.

Away into ages long yelled in No More,
The heart looketh back thro' the eyes ofthe mind
And seeth reeline on the Past's sterile shore,
The moments Youth squandered away on the wind
In the tomb of By-Gones, meath pals of Regret,
1t vieweth full many beauty Tepose,
Whose splendor laid hid, till its being had set,
Like perfume unshed from the lips of the rose.
On Pillow of Lost meath the shroud of SelfWilled
There lieth a legion of treasures in waste,
Whose grandeur and worth were all sighted and
killed
BY hands of False Pride and breaths of rude Haste
o, how the heart bleeds, when the reason ofAge
Sums up in the book of the Present the Past.
And countcth the whole on its nistorYs page,
To balance its gains gainst the losses at last
1t feeeth the force Of Life's ungoyerned speed,
Like tornado's break DER Reality's gate,
And mourneth in gloom when fair Truth doth pro
ceed, ~
Too show Regrets dial is pointing "TOo Late"

A WARNING TO HAM EATERs.-The
New York papers record the following ex-
traordinary case A family named Flaig, re-
siding at No. As Elizabeth street, has recent
ly been poisoned by eating uncooked ham,
One child having died, Coroner Nau-
man held an inquest thereon, when the tes-
timony of Mrs Werkmerster, grandmother
of the child, and of several physicians was
taken. Three doctors who had examined
the ham, testified that it was alive with mi
croscopic insects known as trichind spir0lis.
This insect is borer, and when introduced
into the human stomach pierces the coat of
that organ in order to make its way into the
muscles of the body, where it makes itself a
nest and lives. Several instances of death
from this cause are already recorded in the
medical books 1t is always unsafe to eat
ham uncooked, for the trichina haunts that
kind of flesh. Says auother account: The
symptoms were gripping in the bowels, causing
intense pain, accompanied with violent di-
arrhea. Medical aid was called in, and all
the family stated that they were taken with
the symptoms Immediately after partaking of
some raw ham, The suspected meat was
subjected to a microscopic test, and
found to be full of poisonous animalcul@.-
To the naked eye the ham looked perfectly
good, and there was nothing in the taste to
distinguish it from perfectly good fresh
meat.

DiAioulty in Getting Married in Bavaria,

The author of a lately published work,
Social life IN Munich, speaking of the
marriage laws of Bavaria remarks: lLh
Gretna Green is quite out of the question
because by an article Of the Police Code ey-
cry man that gets married abroad without
the permission of the mother country is liza
BILE to fine of hundred forins, or thirty
days Imprisonment In the Falitiuate there
is perfect freedom in the matter of marriage
and establishment, but only for the natives
of the place. Immigrants from the other
provinces of Bavaria are treated accordingly
to their own laws, and many poor couples
who have been denied the right of marrying
at home have spent their last savings in jour
neying across the Rhine, hoping in vain to
find liberty there. The Bavaran Govern
ment do evrything in their power to enforce
the rule the minute surveillance of the pO-
lice in every town is such that secret marri-
age could not by any possibility be made I;
unmarried couples may not live together, ex-
cept Kings and Lola and other highest Lord
ships The consequent immortality makes
of Munich place where the illegitimate
sometimes exceed the Legitimate births in
number. Here is another Illustration of the
workings of the law
have heard of case of two poor people
having to wait fifteen years for permission
to marry, and spending two hundred forms
on applications, One of the writers on the
subject gives the following instance.
An operative earning II shillings week
was engaged to girl earning shillings,
and owner of house valued at Gl20 and a
COW. They applied for permission to marry
and were refused means of subsistence
not assured" Time went on; they had two
children, and still their application was re-
fused on the same ground. The owner Of the
manufactory took up their cause and plead
ed it himself with the official, saying that
this refusal was not what was intended by
the Government. The official replied curt
ly, What does that matter to US the Gov
ernment may have its own ideas on the sub
iect but we have ours, and | in particular
am of opinion that such marriages are neith-
er right nor useful" the author from whom
quote this adds, While am writing, my
servant girl aged fifteen years, comes in
dressed for feast day, and says that her
father and mother are to married to-day,
and she must henceforth be called by her
fathers name Twelve times her fathers
application for license to marry was rejected
and each time he had to pay fees and expen-
ses, lawyers bills" etc.

EVERYTHING GOING UP.-The following
spicy, humorous, and sensible article we clip
from the Piscataquis Observer Everything
up and going up-everything edible and
wearabe-things of use and things of fancy
things tangible and things intangible
The good man of the house takes look at
his last years coat, and concludes to have
the button-holes re-worked and new buttons
put on, and it will do very well for another
season. His thrifty helpmate overlooks the
household gear, and determines to cut down
the bigger children's clothing for the little
ones but she makes an exception in favor
of the young ladies, for they certainly must
have new bonnets and dresses. Economy is
installed as presiding goddess in every we'll
regulated family; not the false economy that
enwraps itself in robe of selfish and con-
temptible meanness-unheeding the cry of
want and helplessness, cutting off the book,
the newspaper, and the benevolent contri-
button, and pinching the seamstress and the
laborer-but the discreet economy that
guards against waste, and prefers to deny
the senses rather than slight the mind and
starve the soul-the prudent economy that
will not indulge in a luxury that has not
been honestly earned and paid for-the in
dispensable economy which, universally prac-
ticed, will carry us through the impending
crisis ..... ..f rr

ABOUT BAcHELoRs.-Ap Appeton's Cyclic
pedia contains the following hints to bache-
lors
ain the good old times it was considered
uupatriotic in citizen to remain bachelor
all his days. BY the Spartan laws, those
citizens who remained bachelors after mid
die age were excluded from all offices, civil
and military. At certain feasts they were
exposed to public derision, and led around
the market place. Although generally
speaking age was usually respected at Spar
ia, yet this feeling was not manifested to-
ward old bachelors. 'Why should l make
way for you, said Spartan youth to gray
headed old bachelor, who will never have
son to do me the same honor when | am old p
The Roman law pursued the same policy to-
wards old bachelors. They had to pay ex-
ira and special taxes, and under Augustus a
law was enacted by which old bachelors
were made incapable of acquiring lega-
cies and devses of real estate by will, except
from their near relatives. In cannon law
old bachelors were enjoined to marry, or to
profess chastity, or in earnest to become
monks"
