With palms of victor crowned,
Fame's clarion music on his ear,
From earth's remotest bound
What ruler O'er a nations love,
In majesty sublime,
Returns to rural haunts to watch
His rpening wheat fields wave,
blessed gadness in his heart
That glory never gave.
Who, mid his acres, broad and green,
Where plowshares plow the sod,
Prefers in sylvan tolls tewalk
With nature and with God Il?
There was but one whO-thus retired
From cOnquest's power and pride,
For which Ambition has so oft
In madness striven and died.
There was but one. DOst ask his name

Go find Mount Vernons sepucher,
And heed its answering sigh.

VAGABoND LoGIc.-Some 1900 years ago. says
the Union Democrat, a certain vagabond mob
crucifed victim on Mount Calvary. The vag-
abonds and fanatics accuse the Jews of to-day of
the crime, and no argument can convince them
that the accused we're notin any manner connec-
ted with the transaction The suggestion that
it is at least highly improbable that any of them
were present at that great distance, and in that
remote period Of time. is deemed frivolous So
the vagabond and fanatcal mob to-day accuse
each and every man who differed with the late
President as an active partcipator in a crime
that the common feelings of humanity revolt at.
This reasoning is only on a par with that of the
Chnaman who, on being booted from a store
by the Jew proprietor, retorted by saying-"Ah,

John Brown has undoubtedly passed through
old Siskiyou. On Monday night, the Swiss Bell
Ringers played in the Metropolitan Hail. The
house was crowded, and many were turned
away unable to get inside. One of the front
seats was occupied by some ten or dozen of
our colored citizens, chiefly of the female per-
suasion. They were invited to take back seats,
and give place to some white women. To this
request, the colored ladies very properly an
swered no. They had paid for seats and we're
entitled to them. Several of our abolition
friends thought it little out of place, but were

VALUABLE DIsCovERY.-Dr. Motherwell, Of
Casteberg an eminent Irish physician, writing
to the Belfast News, alleges the discovery of a
most valuable adjunct to restore persons from
drowning. He calls it "discovery," because
years before, he had seen an animal suffocated
by immersion in carbonic acid gas Immediately
restored by immersion in oxygen gas. He then
describes the marvellous effects produced upon a
young lady suffering from the inhalation Of bad
air, by few minutes breathing of oxygen. The
doctor adds: Gin asphyxia from drowning, it
is simply the want of oxygen that kills; in as
phyxia, from bad air, there is also the presence
Of noxious gas. In both cases, the first object
is to rouse the hearts action, and supply oxy-
gen to the blood so as to change it from yenous
to arterial" lie suggests that there shall be
kept in the close vicinity Of docks, quays, bath
ing places, excavations, mines ETC., supply Of
small air-tight bags of India rubber or air-tight
cloth. Even bladder would answer, with a
stop-cock and mouth-piece, each bag holding
gallon or so Of oxygen gas. The whole expense
would be triiing, and on our steamers, ETC., the
application might save precious lives.

A SECRET OF YoUTH.-There are women who
cannot grow old-women who without anyspe-
cial effort remain always young and always at
tractye. The number is smaller than it should
be- but there is a sufficient number to mark the
wide difference between this class and the other
The secret of this perpetual youth lies not in
beauty, for some women possess it who are not
at all handsome; nor in dress, for they are fire.
quently careless in that respect, so far al the
mere arbitrary dictates of fashion are concerned
nor in having nothing to do, for these ever
young women are always as bees, and i. is very
well known that dleness will fret people into
old age anc uginess faster than over-work
The charm, we imagine, lies in a sunny temper
neither more nor less, the blessed gift Of al
ways looking on the bright side of life, and of
stretching the mantle ofcharity over everybody's
faults and failngs. 1t is not much Of a secret
but it is all that we have been able to discover,
and we have watched such with great interest
and a determination to report truthfuly for the
benefit of the rest Of the sex. 1t is very provo
king that it is something which cannot be
corked up and sold for fifty cents a bottle; but
as this is impossible, why, the most of us will
have to keep on growing old, and ugly, and dis
agreeable as usual.-[Jenny June.

the third instance Of the succession of Vice
President to the vacant chair of President is
marked as were the former instances by the
fact that the vacancy occurs in the very early
part Of the term Of Office. President Harrison
was inaugurated March 4 ls4l, and died April
of the same year, one month after his inaugu-
ration. President Taylor was naugdrated eight
years later, March 4, l849, and died July Of the
same year, about four mouths after entering Of
