A tyrant needsth not throne
To win the hated name:
Who ruleth not his household we'll.
Must own the tyrznt's shame
Who tramples down Of slaves but one.
Il cen . worthless thing:
No matter be bis title great.
Or be he one OF small estate.
Or master. lord. or king.
The husband loving not his wife
Parent 20 child unkind-
Who shuns his home for brutal joys.
To suit brutisa mind:
Whoever harms . living thing.
Whate'er may be its name
The as that be-rs its daily toll.
Or meanest worm that crawis tue soil.
Must own the tyrant's shame.
When peace prevaiis-in every home,
when kindrid love Is found
And each 10 all shalt feel the tie.
Brother to brothers bound:
When none shall dare . deed 10 do
Which Others wrong may he.
But each shall govern we'll his heart.
And shun himself the tyrant's part.
Then-then mankind Is free!

When it stands for a strain it means
unsound. 1t may have sound sense,
but il has Zeal OF nonsense about it
too.
THE "Gossip" man of the Detroit

A YOUNG officer Of the British House

We copy from the Charleston
Courier a letter addressed 10y Mr..
SHALIcRoss 10 the members OF the
former Board of Directors Of the Peni-
Tertiary, with the Courter's comments
thereon. The Governors position in
this matter is an awkward one. Ac-
cordipg to his theory the former Board
of Directors is still in Office, but its
members won't meet, they won't resign,
and they have not shown very great
alacrity in dying His Excellency don't
know how TO ge. rid Of them 80 as to
make such vacancy as will permit OF
his appointing their successors. Mean
time the Directors appointed by the
Board OF Public Works. although BY
the Governors order denied admission
to the penitentiary building. are quietly
exercising the functions and perform"
ing the duties vested in them by law.
In fact the Governor don't seem to be
so completely "msster ofthe situation"
as certain Radical journals have been
wont to assert.
