DIsGUsTING.--Men are sometimes said
to make beasts of themselves, and occa-
sionally there are isolated cases wherein
representatives Of the human family not
only put themselves upon level with
beasts, but, by their actions, render them
selves even lower than the lowest order of
animal creation. Deeply We regret that
in our report of the proceedings of the
CoamissiOneT's Court Of day before yester
day, we were compelled to sully the fair
fame Of our city by the recital Of a crime
which cannot but excite disgust wherever
there is one spark Of manly or womanly
feeling. We had intended passing il by
with bat mere notice, but on yesterday it
was continued, and the greater portion Of
the morning was taken mp in its investiga-
ton. The case il thai Of David Hogan,
charged with a crime against nature.

And sometimes, We Wot, this music has more Of
grandeur and beauty than that which lacks
neither voice nor utterance. We think uf ibis
often, when our heart 10 yearning for the power
70 break forth into music and join the ysices Of
Nature in their grand anthem of praiss to God.
We think of it. when, in church or yesty. or
under the bright blue canopy OF heaven, the
gladstone hymns of faith and trust, which OUR
fathers sung, go mp once more to the very
throne Of God. And there Is consolation in tie
thought to US, as there may be to some that
read this, that though the lips be unskilIed add
the voice untaught, the heart may keep Sms
and tune.
And We believe that oftentimes this music cf
the heart ia more acceptable to God than Is the
music Of the lips Praise that is true prsias
consists not in skill or seisnce. Better the
thankful heart than the sweetest voice without
it. The heavens declare the glory If Gsd,
though it be with unspoken voice, more thas
the streams that ripple and the birds tha

Then should ye who have the power to prsi.e

who have not this power, will still thazk God
that we can sing with the understanding, and

Life ia but deaths vestibule, and our nd
grimage on earth but a journey to We grave
The pulse that preserves our being beats our
dead-maroh. aud the blood which circula.ee
our life is floating outward to the depths Of
death. To-day we see our friends in health
Tomorrow We hear OF their decesse. We clasp
ed the hand OF the strong man but yesterday,
aud to-day We closed his eyes We rode In a
chariot OF comfort but an bo1r ago, and in q
few hours the last black chariot must convey
US to the home Of all the living. Orhow CLOSELY
allied is death to life The lamb that sropssd
In the field must feel the knife. The OK in the
pasture Is fattening Tor she slaughter Trees
do but grow that they may be felled. Ye~. and
greater things than these fesl death Empires
rise and flourish ; they flourish bus to desay
they rise but to fall.
How often do we take up a volume OF history
and read Of the rise and fall Of emrdrss? We
hear Of the earonation and dAsih of kipgs.-
Death Is the black servant who rides bshind
the chariot of life See life, and death ia lo.e
behind it. Death reaches far Throughout His
world and has stamped Terrestrial thiugs with
the broad arrow of the grave Stars die, may-
hap it is said that confaxrations have bean
seen afar off In the ether, and astronomers have
marked the funerals ofotha worlds--the decay
of those mighty orbs that we have imagined sst

one place where death is not LIES brother-
where life reigns alone; ''te live is but ths

The Eouseband.

1.-THE ancient photography Of the word hus ban
s ouseband, or housebond, he who keeps tn
house together.
Honor the hard and sunburnt hand
That tolls from day to day
To chase from out the humble home
The demon Want away;
That spreads a shelterng segis
Where wife and children dwell,
And clasps them in its iron strength,
With love no word can tell,
0 the husband is the housebQnd
That keeps the house together;
The genial sun, the kindly shower,
The calm of household weather.
Honor the mind that plots and plans
For pleasure or for pelf,
And yet through all the strains and strife
Thinks mover of itseH!
But Of the group that gathorrs
About the homely hearth, Af85
That place by loves enchantment made
The brightest spot on earth!
O the Husband is the housebond
That binds the house together;
The genial sky, the sun, the shower,
The calm of household weather
Honor the heart that warns and swels
With manhood's lfSiest thrill,
And yet in its capacous depths
Is all unselfsh still
But while the hands are toiling,
And the mind is vcxed with care,
Bears the dear burthen to It's God
In deep though voicelcss prayer!
Yes, the Husband is the housebond
That links the house together;
The blessed sum- the grateful shower,
The calm of household weather.
