Life.

The following beautiful disquisition
upon life, says the Philadelphia Eveniag
Bulletin, occurs in sermon delivered by
Rev. E. E. Adams, in the North Broad
| street Presbyterian Church, in that city:
"There is life in the lichen that clings
to the shaded rock and drinks the cold
drops of the mountain there Is life in
the FREELY that lights up the marsh with
his evening ray there is life in the lark
| that halls the orient sun with a psalm
more sweet, and not less glorious, than
| the notes of Haydn and Beethoven
there is life in the lion who shakes the
wilderness with his terrible roar, send
| ing horror through every wild, pulsing
heart; there is life in the eagle as he sits
in solitary grandeur on his Alpine
| height, or sails on steady pinion above
| the clouds that crown the Andes; there
is still higher life in a speeehless child
just opening its eyes to the light, and
with pure lips in its first smile there ia
life in boyhood, glorious in its fresh am
bition, in its untamed aspirings there
is life in girlhood, the charm of beauty
and innocence playing on the cheek as
If the smile of God were there there is
life in manhood, and in the herculean
the eye that shoots out the fire of Mars.
Measure, if you can, the mental life OF
Plato the depth and compass of Web
ster! Fathom the Intellectual and
| moral depths of Moses and Paul. Take
the life of humanity, let it be represent
| ed by all its best qualities in a single
human being. Give him the frame of
Samson, the intellect of Lord Bacon, the
soul of Payson or St. john. the beauty.
and grace of Alcibiades, the song Of
Handel or Mozart, the oratory of Cicero,
or Pericles, or Clay, the devotion of
Daniel or Paul. the executive genius of
Alexander, the scence of Humboldt, the
craftsmanship of Washington, and the
social nature of Burke, the muse of
Shakespeare, the chivalry of Gustavus
Adolphus, and the piety of Daniel or
JOseph--and let him stand forth among
his species to defend, to enlighten, to
win.
"Let him shed his atlight over the
earth. Let him reform governments.
revolutionize customs, awaken thought,
inspire devotion, Danish abuse, elevate
life, and fill the world with new, ispir.
ing, grateful, holy sentiments, feelings,
and resolves. Let him impart some-
thing Of his great nature to humber
mortals; let him speak in majesty and
tenderness to US, and be before us in the
way, the truth and the life--the highest
standard ofmanhood, the living deposit
tory of all human greatness and good
ness--all that is mighty in the arm Of
man, all that is profound in his intel.

that is sublime and blissful in holiness,
and will tell you that the life Of
Christ is infinitely more Angels cam
not reach it, seraphs cannot know it, 1t
is the life of God dwelling in the soul,
1t is holiness that no spot darkens--

From the Monitor Of the Frontier

| As our readers will remember. tho
brigade of General Lopez left our city
last Saturday, at 10 o'clock A. M, hay
| ing in guard convoy destined for Mou-
terey.
Cortinas, who had previously been in
formed of the matter, and, no doubt,
surmising that the convoy contained o
large amount of specie, spared no exer-
tions in making preparations to over.
power and make himself master of the
train. :
The Imperialists had not proceeded
many leagues from the city when they
came upon q portion of the enemy, who
harassed their march, and skirmishing
commenced. These skirmishes contin-
ued more or less on the way, when our
troops were finally attacked by the enc.
my in force, numbering six hundred
men, who made several vehement
charges on that part of the brigade COW
ering the convoy. The bandits were,
however, bloodily repulsed. Findingall
their efforts to capture the convoy fruit
less, the rage of the bandits became in
describable; and, having succeeded in
rallying part of the scattered forces,
numbering about one hundred men, one
of the leaders made another desperate
dash on the train, which again proved
failure the bandits being this time more
severely punished than before.
After this last attack the forces of Cor
tinas became terrified, and being seized
by panic, they broke ranks and fled in
all directions, endeavoring if possible to
save themselves from being captured.
The losses of Cortinas in his several
! charges was not less than one hundred.
Those of the bandits who fell into the
hands of our troops alive were indls-
criminately shot.
| The loss to the Imperial forces during
the whole of the time. was only nye OF
six wounded; most of them sugnty.
None were killed,
! Iieutensnt Silvan of the Imperial
army who was so unfortunate as to be-
/ como separated from the rest of his COM
nanionsi fell into the hands of the BAN
ditto and was murdered in most un-
merciftll manner.
The report circulating in our city the
mast few days, that Cortinas had with
| him nine hundred negroes of the Fed
eral army, four hundred of whom had
either been killed or captured, is mis-
take. 1t is gratifying to state that no
such negroes participated in the engage
ment.
The bandits were commanded by Gen.
Cortinas, Colonies Canales and Cerna.
The forces of Cortinas having been
thus effectually routed, no more appre-
hension was felt for the safety of the
convoy, which continued on its way to
Monterey, having been placed by Gen.
Lopez in charge of the troops COM
manded by Colonel Finajero and Lieut.
Col. Montejano.
After these arrangements forthe SAFETY
of the convoy had been completed the
4 remainder of the troops under zen.
Lopez recommended their n1arcn 70

rooms, on Market street. The officer
who shot Mulligan deserves credit for his
resolution in performing SO disagreeable
and yet so imperative duty. Evenhad
MulIigan been taken alive, no puwer url-
der heaven could have saved him from
the fury of the crowd. He would have
been hanged and limbed on the spot,
and the police would have been power
less to resist such crowd. Thus ends
the career of man whose name has
oeen one OF the synonyms of infamy,
and whose existence has been a blot on
this community.

This beautiful poem appeared original
ly in the independent, written on the
passage, "Man goeth forth unto his work
and TO his labor until the evening"
The stream Is ealmest when 1t nears the tide,
And flowers are sweetest at the eventide
And birds most musical at close Of day,
And saints divinest when they pass away.
Morning is lovey--but a holicr charm
Lies folded close in evenings robe of balm;
And weary man must ever love her best,
For Morning calls 10 toll, but Night to rest
She comes from heaven, and on her wings doth hes
holy fragrance, like the breath of PRAYER;
Footsteps of angels follow in her trace
To shut the weary eye of Day In peace.
All things are hushed before her. as she throws
Ger earth and sky her mantle of repose;
There Is a calm, beauty, and a mower
That morning knows not in the evening hnur
Until the evening we must woep and toll
Plough life's stern fiirrow, dig the weedy soil
Tread with sad feet our rough and thorny way
And bear the heat and burden of the day.
OH when our sun is setting, may we glide
Like summer evening" down the summer tide
And leave behind us. we pass away
sweet, starry twilight round our sleeping clay.
