SATURDAY AFTERNOON.
BY y. p. WILLIS.

! love to look Oh scene like this,
OF wild and careless play,
And pursuade myself tho | am not old,
And my locks are not Yet gray;
For it stirs the blood ofan old man S breast,
And makes his pnlses fly,
To catch the thrill of a happy voice,
And the light of a pleasant eye.
have walked the world for fotr-score
y, & Years, f.#ss
And they say am old
That my heart is ripe for the reaper Death.
And my years are we'll nigh told.
1t is very true-it is very true
am old. and ''bide my time
But my heart will leap at a scene like this,
And | half renew my prime.
Play on! play on! am with you there,
In the midst of your merry ring;
can feel the thrill Of the darling jump.
And the rush of the breathless swing;
hide with YOU in the fragrant hay,
And whoop the smothered call.
And my feet slip up on the seedy floor,
And | care not for the fail.
I am willing to die when my time shall
come,
And shall be glad to go
For the world at best is a weary place.
And my pulse is getting low;
But the grave is dark, and the heart will
fail
In treading its gloomy way
And it WileS my breast from its drearineSs,
70 see the young so gay.

A Comment on the Supreme Court
Decision.

Gen. Halpine, (Miles O'Reilly) an
out and out Democrat, thus writes con-
corning the recent Supreme Court de-
cision:
We think it would have argued lar
ger craftsmanship, and sounder spirit
of Interpretation for Judge Davis and
his notwithstanding as they did a
bare minority of one over Chief JUS.
tice Chase andthe others who dissented
to have abstained from disturbing
this question. 1t would appear better,
certainly, not to have exposed eyery
Captain to persecution for having cut
away some spars or masts, when only
by so doing could our ship of State
have been saved. 1t would have been
q larger and grander course, we think.
Tor the Supreme Court not to have
pried microscopically into the mere
technical authority or want of authori-
ty, for acts performed in the highest
Jury OF the late rebellious storm, but
to have pretermitted the matter alto
gether, as cause arising at time snd
under circumstances of (which the strict
letter OF the law could not lie held COM
petent tc judge.
s, 1t was not by the Supreme Court, by
any means, nor by any machinery Of
legal red tape, that the late monstrous
instruction was crushed down and
strangled. 1t was by the mailed hand
OF military violence, striking wherever
1t saw q foe, and resolved IN do an1r-
thing and everything that might be ne
eessary to save the country. In a
word, it was not by Judge Davis and
his ermined associates, but by Stanton
and his Generals and Admirals. that
our Government was preserved during
It's late days of trial and had nothing
been done, either in the rebel States,
save by such creaking machinery as the
Supreme Court itself would either be
no longer in existence or. holding it's
session somewhere on this side of the
Susquehanna.

Death from Taking Nitrous Oxide.

A young man named Edward Koro-
sin died on Monday, the 21st inst, in
Philadelphia, while at the office of
dentist. He had come to Eave tooth
extracted, and requested the dentist not
to give him to much of the laughing
gas, as he was in feeble health. The
dentist says that the patient moved his
head soon after the tooth was pulled,
which caused the forceps to slip, and
the tooth fell down his throat. The
young man began to strangle and
cough violently. A doctor was sent
for, mustard was administered, and the
tooth was thrown up with the mustard.
Still the patient strangled, breathed
convulsively, and finally died in an
hour and half after entering the dem
lists office. A post mortem exa.nin-
alton on Wednesday developed the
fact that the cork which is usually
placed betweed the teeth to keep the
jaws open, had been swallowed, though
the dentist was positive that he had re-
moved it and then had it in his posses.

WASHINGTON, Feb. II, '67.-The first
meeting, of the Congressional Temper
ance Society was held tonight in Rep
resentatives HAIL The galleries were
densely crowded. Senator Wilson pre-
sided. Representative Price, of Iowa,
said he had never witnessed scene like
that before him, of so much brilliancy
and SO full ofinterest. The Chairman
next introduced in complimentary
terms, Senator Yates, of Illinois. Mr..
Yates said he had signed the pledge
for good and had made his covenant
with God some months before. When
he signed the pledge he raised himself
to his full highth for he was free, al
though he had considered himself a
moderate drinker. It was published
through the land that he was a drunk
ard. There was some truth and error
in this. He had the failing when drunk
of letting every body know it. His
speeches were not frequent, but long
and loud The great Commonwealth
of Illinois had for twenty-five years
honored him in all public positions, and
he had now promised the State and all
who loved him, Kate and the children,
he would never more touch taste or
handle the unclean thing. He intended
to fight it out on that line till the last
hour of his existence.
conclusion, he read cheering and
joyous letter from his wife, in response
to the good news that he had signed
the pledge, which moved many in the
audience to tears.
Several others addressed the meeting
and in response to a call from the au-
dience the pledge was read and the
names Of the signers, the list embrac-
ing number Of Senator'S and Repre-
sentatives.

The South Western gives the follow

The South Western gives the follow
ing good advice:
The future destiny OF Louisiana,
whether it shall belong to this race or,
that, depends upon the courage, the
energy, the persistence and the intelli-
gence of the two races, to that race
which is superior in these particulars,
and to the moral support which these
qualities always secure in efficient allies.
These allies we have from California to
Connecticut. The victorious cLeers of
our friends in Ohio and Pennsylvania
will not allow us To despond, even if we
were cowardly enough to do SO, from
our poverty >. our acknowledgements and
the INSULTING degradation of our race
prefgured in the composition of the
State convention-in its majority of
semi-savage negroes and moral by birds,
of recent importation, with the faces of
one race and the hearts of the other.
Against the power which these control,
the few decent old citizens in the con-
vention can acco,nplish--nothing. Let
us not rely upon any expectation of this
sort. but go to work. like men, organize
throughout the State, hold a mass con-
vention of our ablest and best men, at
the same time with the mongrel conyen-
ton, and show our grievances. and our
gratitude to our Democratic friends i'll
the North.

The BOTTOM OF THE SEA.-Our in
yestigatiOns go to show that the roaring
waves and the mightiest pillows of the
ocean repose not upon hard or troubled
beds, but upon cushions of still water;
that everywhere at the bottom of the
deep sea the solid ribs, of the earth are
protected, as with a garment, from the
|abraiding action of its currents; that the
cradle of it's restless waves is lined by a
stratum of water at rest, or so nearly at
rest that it can neither wear nor move
the lghtest bit of drift that once lodges
there. The uniform appearance of these
microscopic shells, and the almost total
absence among them of any sediment
from the sea or foreign matter. suggests
most foroibly the idea of perfect repose
at the bottom of the sea. Some of the
specimens are as pure and as free from
the sea sand as the flesh fallen snow
flake is from the dust of the earth. In
deed, these soundings almost prove that
the sea, like the snow-cloud with its
flakes in a calm, is always letting fall
upon it's bed shadows of these minute
shells; and we may readily imagine that
the wrecks which strew its bottom are,
in the process of ages, hidden under this
fleecy covering, presenting the rounded
appearance which is seen over the body
of the traveller who has persisted in the
snow-storm. The ocean, especially with
in and near the tropics, swarms with
life. The remains of myriads of NOV
ing things are conveyed by c1rrents,
and scattered and lodged in the course
of time all over it's bottom. This pro-
cess, continued for ages, has covered the
depths of the ocean as with mantle,
consisting of organisms as delicate as
hOar-frost, and as light in the water as
down in the air. The tooth of running
water is very sharp. See how the Nj
agara has cnt it's way through layer af-
ter layer of solid rock. But what is Nj
agara, with all the fresh water courses
of the world, by the side of the great
currents of the ocean9 And what is the
pressure of fresh water upon river beds,
in comparison with the pressure of ocean
water upon the bottom of the deep sea!
1t is not SO great by contrast as the gut
tiers i'm the streets are TO the cateract
Then why have not the currents of the
sea worn it's bottom awaya Simply be-
cause they have not been permitted to
get down to it'd All the Year Round.

AN ITEM WHICH EVERY MAN
SHOULD READ.-We have probably all
of us met with. instances in which q
word heedlessly spoken against the
reputation of a female has been magni-
fed by malicious minds until the cloud
has been dark enough 70 overshadow
her whole existence. 70 those who are
accustomed, not necessarily from bad
motives, but from thoughtlessness-
to speak lightly of ladies', we recon-
mend these ..hints'' as worthy of con-
sideration
Never use a lady'S name in an i'm
proper place. at an improper time or i'll
mixed company Never make asser-
tions about her that you think untrue.
or illusions that you feel she herself
would blush to hear. When you meet
with men who do not scrGple to make
use of a wOman's name in reckless
and unprincipled manner, shuu them,
for they are the very worst members OF
the 'coInmulity-men lost to every
sense of honor, every feeling of humani-
ty. Many a good and worthy woman's
character has been forever ruined and
heart broken, by lie manufactured by
some villain, and repeated where it
should not have been, and in the pres
ence of those whose little Judgment
could not deter them from circulating
the foul and Dragging report. A slam
der is soon propagated, and the small
est thing derogatory to a wom.n's
character will fly Oh the wings of the
wind, and magnify as it circulates until
it's monstrous weight brushes the poor
unconscious victim. Respect the name
of woman, your mother and sisters are
women, and as you would have their
fair name untarnished, and their lives
unembittered by the slanderer's bitter
tongue, heed the i'll that your own
words may bring upon the mother, the
sister or the wife of some fellow crea-
tuTe. a

in every pulpit and able teacher of right
