From the Constitutional Union.'
TO the FeMians.

We rebel sons of Ireland,
Who love your fathers graves,
Whose wrongs are screen h1t1adred gears
As felons, or as slaves;
Your rebel standard launch again
To meet your Saxon foe,
And then strike, with the pike,
Till you lay the tyrants low.
The murder Of your fathers
Shall nerve you to be brave;
The scaffiold was their field of fame,
Or Poor House land their grave
Where Tone and martyr'd Emmett bled
Your rebel hearts shall glow,
While you strike, with the pike
For your homes-the steady blow.
Old Erin has her bulwarks
And towers along the steep,
And sons that will rccross the wave,
4 vengeance dire to reap;
For Heavens freedom we must have
Tho blood in torrents flow
While you strike, with the pike,
Amid the rifles lurid glow.
There S music in the lannon's roar,
The elanking of bright steel,
The loud shouts of patriot men
As they make the Saxon reel
The God of Battles be your guido
Upon that blessed day,
When face to face you meet the foe,
And you strike, with the pike,
Freedoms victorious blow
The glorious flag Of Ireland
Soon. soon shall proudly wave,
To lead us on in freedom fight.
Or shroud us in the grave
oh !! rebels then, and felons, then
The song and feast shall flow
To the fame of orr name
When the tyrant is laid lowl

Where the Light Came From.

Some years ago, in Newcastle county,
Delaware, an Irishman was knocked
down and robbed. He accused a man
of having committed the robbery, and
in due time the case came to trial. The
lrishman being put upon the stand, was
crOss-examined, after having sworn DOS
itively to the guilt of the prisoner, by
one of the keenest lawyers, and some
thing like the following was the result:
" You say the prisoner at the bar is
the man who assaulted and robbed
you? ''
"Yes."
"Was it moonlight when the occur
renee took place ?''
"Divil a bit NV it,
Was it starlight?"
Not a whit; it was so dark that
you could not see your hand before YOU. ),
" Was there any light shining from
any house near by?"
Divil a bit iv a house was there any,
where about"
We'll, if there was no moon. stars.
nor light from any house, and SO dark
that you could not see your hand before
you, how are you able to swear that the
prisoner was the man? How could you
see him :'
Why, your honor, when the spal-
peen struck me, the fire flew out Of my
eyes so bright you might have seen to
pick up pin, you might"
The court, jury, counsel and spectators
exploded with shouts at this quaint idea,
but the prisoner was directly after de-
clared not guilty.

Curious little creature
Funny is its little phiz,
Comic every feature.
Helpless thing a baby is
Tiny hand uplifting
Der the troubled tide OF life
Into which lis drifting.

Memories of heaven

All the loss and gain of life,
All the sin and merit.

A WORD WITH YOUNG MEN.-lf you were just
starting on a journey to visit new and strange
lands, you would thank any one that had been
there before you for any little scraps of Informal
ton concerning the country you were to visit
the character of the inhabitants, the route you
should take, and the dangers and difficulties you
would be likely to encounter. You are just EN-
barking upon a long journey. We heve Travelled
the road before you, and we propose to give you
a word or two of advice. And in doing so we
shall drop metaphor aud come down to good
plain English. If you are fortunate enough to
have been born poor, or in moderate circum5ian-
ccs, and are the possessor OF good common sense,
you will appreciate what we have to say; it not,
you will 90 your own way. We speak of being
born poor as - Fortunate II is so in this, that
you have before you larger field to conquer,
and far brighter laurels will crown the victory.
The hard experiences of poverty are necessary to
unfold within you the noblest attributes OF char
acter. He who has struggled with and
triumphed over these rugged conditions OF life
knows not the blessings of such a schooling
The great trouble with most young men is, they
are too sensitive to the opinions of those whose
circumstances allow of more elegant leisure am
less restraint-in other words, of those whose
wealthy but foolish parents allow their boys to
indulge in all the little vanities to which young
men are susceptible. Hence, they acquire
travagant tastes which they have not the means
to crafty. You should not choose such associ-
ates While they are laying the foundation for
idle and dissolute lives, you should be storing
your mind with useful knowledge, and building
up character which, ere long, will make you u
man amongst men. Cultivate that sterling
virtue, self-rcliance, and continually aim nt
something higher and better in life. Keep awny
from silly, fashionable butterflies of girls. Like
the witch light that plays around the deadly
swamp, they will lure yon to ruin. If yon would
have female society, land the right kind of such
society is ever desirable) select those gems of
young womanbood, girls who are not ashamed
to be employed at something useful, and who
think of something else than dress and show
Spend your evenings at home and keep away
from the saloons. Save your money; cultivate
habits of industry. Establish reputation for
honesty and fair dealing. BE punctual ana
faithful in business matters, and ever strive to
preserve unsuled the priceless jewel of good
name. Follow these directions and you will be
surprised to find how readily the obstacles to
success in life will melt away before your earnest
endeavors.

from lis official acts. The Gazette then adds,
with an emphasis which attracts some attention
from the fact that Galena is the home of Gen.
Grant:
We know all his hopes and sympathies are

country. In feeling and sentiment he is thor
oughly identified with the millions of loyal peo-
ple who in the long years of war and carnage,
