Courage.

Courage l-Nothiug can Withstand
Long a wrooged, undaunted land
If the hearts within her he
True unto themselves and thee,
Thou free giant, Liberty !
Oh, 70 mountain nymph art thou,
When the helm is on thy brow,
And the sword is in thy hand,
Fighting for thy own good land.
Courage l-Nothing e'er withstood
Freemeu fighting for their good;
Armed with all their fathers fame,
They will win and wear q name;
They shall go to endless glory,
Like the gods of old Greek story,
Raised to heaven aud heavenly worth
For the good they gave to earth.
Courage There is none so poor,
(Noue of those who wrong endure
None so humble, none so weak,
But may flush bis fathers cheek,
And his msIden's, dear aud true,
With the deeds that he may do.
Be his days as dark as night,
He may make himself light;
What though sunken be his sun? ?
There are stars when day is done !
Couragel-Who will be q slave,
That hath strength to dig grave,
And there 10 his fetters hide,
And lay a tyrant BY bis side?
Courage Hope, howeer be hy
For a time, can ReUer die
Courage, therefore, brother men
Courage To the 6ght again

PREVENTION OF THE SMALL>Pox =
Much stress is laid upon vaccination as q
preventive Of smallpox. 1t is 20 doubtvery
good, but it is not by any mesns certain in
lis results. Two Of the very worst cases Of
smallpox in this city were Of parties who
had been vaccinated about four months pre-
viOus to the attack, and to all appearances
the vaccine matter had operated admirably.
On the other hand, many persons who have
been frequently, aBd for long time, expos>
ed to the worst possible forms of oOutsgion,
and who never have been Vaceinated, have
escaped seatheless. These facts, aud the
other fact that many who have taken the
disease have never been exposed to It, know.
ingly, suggest the idea that the disease now
raging 10 this city may be epidemic 10 its
character as we'll as cohtagious-ss much Of
the former as the latter. Certain it is that
it does not act as the smallpox usually does,
AMI is complicated with other diseases or
malarious influences which materially change
the usual character of the disease. But
though vaccination may not 10 all cases ward
of the disease, it is believed that it can be
absolutely kept at bay-kept clear from house
and person, in spite of auy expOsure-by the
proper use of powerful dislufectants. The
best disiufectant and preventive known, is
carbolic acid. Some physicians say that
clothing used by smallpox patients can be
so thoroughly disinfected BY this acid as
TO become perfectly harmless. However this
may be, it will no doubt keep the disease
away from persons aud dwellings. For this
purpose an ounce Of the ordinary acid, in
solution, should be mixed with sixty ounces
Of lukewarm water, and this mixture occas.
ioually sprinkled over the clothing worn 90
the person, aud on the carpets of dwellings,
Thus prepared, q person may brave the
smallpox with almost absolute impunity. A
half ounce vial of the acid, stopped with o
common cork, and kept standing in room,
will keep the small pox contagiou out if it is
pervadiug the atmosphere. Half dollars
worth of the acid, in solution, placed in four
or Eve vials, set in different parts of house,
will serve to keep dwelling clear Of the in
fection, as it is ordinarily dispersed through
the atmosphere. With the means Of thor
ough disiufection so cheap, people should
generally resort to it, in order to see if they
cannot by its use stay the raging epidemic.
1t cannot do any harm, and we believe it
will prove suecessiul.-CdH.

TIE FOOTSTEPS OF DECAY.

Oh let the soul its sldmbers break
Arouse the senses, and awake
To see how soon
Life, in its glogies, glides away,
And the stern footsteps OF decay
Come stealing on.
And when we view the rolling tide,
Down which our flowing minutes glide
Away so fast,
Let us the present hour employ,
And deem each future dream a joy
Already past
Let no vain hope deceive the mind,
No happier let US hope to ind
To morrow thaa to. day;
Our gold5n dreams of yore were bright,
Like them the present shall delight
Like Them decay.
Our lives like Fastening streams must be,
That into one eugulfng sea
Are doomed to fall
The sea of death, whose waves roll on
Ger king aud kingdom, crown and throne,
Aud swallow all.
Alike the rivers lordly tide,
Alike the humble rivulets glide,
To that sad wave
Death levels poverty and pride,
And rich and poor sleep side by side
Within the grave.
Our birth is but starting place
Life is the running OF the race,
Aud death tne goal.
Tbereall our glittering toys are brought
That path alone, of all unsought,
Is found of all.
See, then, how poor and little worth
Are all those glIttering toys Of earth
That lure US here;
Dreams of a sleep that death must break;
Alas before it bids US wake,
We disappear.
Long'ere the damp Of death can blight
The cheeks pure glow of red and white
He passed away;
Youth smiled aud all was heavenly fair,
Age came, and laid his finger there,
And where are they?
Where is the strength that spurned decay,
The step that roved so light and gay;
The hearts blithe toner
The strength is gone, the step is slow
And Joy grows wear;some, and woe
When age comes on.
