The McGurk-pepper Examination.

The McGurk-Pepper Examination.
To accommodate the large crowd
which ii was expected would be in at
tendance on the occasion, Judge
Brown held his court ut the court
house yesterday morning. The contin-
uance which was granted on Saturday
afternoon till Monday morning at 10
o'clock, attracted a large number of
persons interested on either side of the
case or impelled by idle curiosity. At
about half past ten the defendants
were brought into court by the deputy
sheriffs and Judge Brown announced
the court as open. Andrew F. Bur-
leigh, attorney for the accused, waived
examination ON the plea that the pres
ent excited state of public feeling In
regard to the matter under examine
tion was inimical to the interests Of
his clients at this time and inasmuch
as the grand jury would be In session
In two weeks, he preferred to let the
examination be prosecuted by that
body. He was followed by County
Attorney Middleton. who in q speech
of considerable length reviewed the
general aspects OF the alleged crime,
and on account Of its gravity, urged
that the bail of the accused be fixed at
not less than $4,000 each, suggesting
that that amount, while not operating
as practical refusal Of bail, would be
more likely to secure their attendance
before the grand jury than smaller
amount. His honor after giving the
matter due consideration fixed the
bail of each at $1,000. and after taking
the personal recognizance Of all wit
nesses for the territory to be and ap-
pear before the grand jury at its next
session adjourned the court sine die.

OUR SKATER BELLE.

Along the frozen lakes She comes
In linking creseents, light and fleet
The ice-imprisoned Undinc huns
\ welcome to her little feet.
l see jaunty hat, the plume
Swerve bird.like in the Joyous gale,-
The checks lit up TO burning bloom,
The young eyes sparkling through the veil,
The quick breath parts her laughing lips,
The white neck shines thro' tossing curls
Her vesture gently sways and dips,
As on she speeds in shell-ll1e whorls.
Men stop and smile to see her go;
They gaze, they smile in pleased surprise ;;
They ask her name, they long to show
Some silent friendship in their.eyes
She glances not; she passes on;
Her stately football quicker rings;
She guesses not the benson
Which follows her on noiseless wings
Smooth be her ways, secure her tread
Along the devious lines of life,
From grace to grace succession led
noble maiden, nobler wife.

CHAPTER TX.

What passed bet,reen Dom QuirOte and the
G0dtherds.
After travelling the remainder of the
day without further adventure, they came
to a place where some goatherds had set
up some small huts and there they con-
cluded to take up their lodging that night.
This was as great modification to SAN
cho, who was altogether for Il good town,
as it was pleasure for his master, who
was for sleeping in the open fields; and
who believed that as often as he did it,
he confirmed his title to knighthood by a
new act of possession.
The knight was very courteously re-
ceived by the goatherds; and as for San
cho, after he had set up Rozinante and his
ass as well as he could, he presently re-
paired to the attractive smell of some
pieces of kids flesh which stood boiling
in a kettle over the fire. The hungry
squire would Immediately have tried
whether they were fit to be removed out
of the kettle into the stomach, but was
took them of the fire and spread some
sheepskinS on the ground, and soon got
their rural feast ready: and cheerfully
invited his master and him to partake Of
what they had. Next, with some coarse
compliment after the country way, they
desired Don QuiXotc to sit down on a
trough with the bottom upwards; and
then six of them, who were all that
belonged to that fold, squatted them
down round the skins, while SanchO stood
to wait upon his master, and gave him
drink in a horn cup, which the goatherds
used. But he seeing his man stand be-
hind, said to him, "SanchO, it is my
pleasure that thou sit thee down by me
in the company of these good people, that
there be no difference now observed
between thee and me, thy natural lord
and master; for it may said of knight
errantry as of love, that itmakes all things
equal" II thank your Worship" crieC
Sancho; shut yet must needs own, haC
but good deal of meat before me, IL
eat it as well, or rather better, standing
and by myself, than if | sat by an emper
or; and, to deal plainly and truly viii
you, had rather munich a crust of brown
bread and an onion in corner, withou
any more ado or ceremony, than fec
upon turkey at another mans table, wher
one is fain to sit minching and chewin;
his meat an hour together, drink little, b.
always wiping his fingers and his mouth
and never dare to cough or sneeze, though
he has never so much mind to it, nor d.
many things which body may do freel,
by ones self: therefore, good sir, chang
those tokens of your kindness, which
have right to by being your worship
squire, into something that would do m
more good. AS for these same honours
heartily thank you az much as if | ha
, accepted them; but yet give up my RICH
to them for this time to the worlds end.

POETRY.
THE BLOOD HORSE.

Gamarra is "A dainty steed,
Strong, black, and OF n noble breed,
Full of fire and full of bone,
With all his line of fathers known;
Fine his nose, his nostrils thin,
But blown abroad by the pride within!
His name is like II river flowing,
And his eyes like embers glowing
In the darkness of the night,
And his pace rs swift as light.
Look-how round his strsining throat
Grace and shifting beauty, float;
Sinewy strength is in his reins
And the ed-blood gallops through his veins;
Richer, reddcr, never ran
Through the Boosting heart of man.
He can trace his lineage higher
Than the Bourbon dare aspire
Douglas, Guzman or the Guelph,
Or O'Brien's blood itself
lie, who hath no peer, was born
Here, upon Il red March morn;
But his famous fathers dead
Were Arabs all, and Arab bred,
And the last of that great line
Trod like one of n race divinel
And yet-he was but friend to one
Who fed him Mt the set of sun
BY some lone fountain fringed with green;
With him, "A rowing Bedouin,
He lived, (none else would Ire obey
Through all the hot Arabian day..
And died untamed upon the sands
Where Ballxh amid the desert stands.

SONG.


The sun shines bright in our old Kentucky
home,
'Tis summer, the darl<ics are gay:
The corn tops ripe and the meadows in the
bloom,
While the birds make music all the day.
The young folks roll on the little cabin floor,
All merry, all happy and bright,
By'm by, hard times comes knocking Mt the
door,
Then my old Kentucky home good night
Weep no more, my lady,
oh weep no more today;
We will sing one song for the old Kentucky
home,
For the old Kentucky home far away.
They hunt no more for the possum and the
coon
On the meadow, the hill and the shore,
They sing no more by the glimmer OF the
moon,
On the bench by the old cabin door.
The day goes by like n shadow DER the heart,
With sorrow where all was delights;
The time has come when the darkies have TO
part,
Then my old Kentucky home, good night!
The head must bow and the back will have to
bend
Wherever the darkey may go;
A few more days and the troubhs all will end
In the field where the sugar canes grow
A few more days for to tote the weary load,
No matter, twill never be light,
A few more days till we totter on the road,
Then my old Kentucky home, good night

Soc. Or again, in ship, if man
having the power to do what he likes,
has no intelligence or skill in navigation,
do you see what will happen to him and
to his fellow-sailors?
AL. Yes; | see that they will all perish.
Soc. And in like manner, in state,
and where there is any power and au-
thority which is wanting in virtue, will
not the result be the same?
AL. Certainly.
Soc. Not tyrannical sway, then, my
good Alcibiades, should be the aim of
individuals or states, if they would be
happy, but virtue.
AL. That is true.
Soc. And before they have virtue, to
be commanded by their betters, is better
for men as well as for children?
AL. That is evident.
Soc. And that which is better is also
nobler?
AL. True.
Soc. And what is nober is more be-
coming?
AL. Certainly.
Soc. Then to the bad man slavery is
more becoming, because better?
AL. True.
Soc. Then vice is slavsh?
AL. Yes.
Soc. And virtue is the attribute of a
| freeman?
AL. Yes.
Soc. And, o my friend, is not slavery
to be avoided?
AL. Certainly, Socrates.
Soc. And are you now conscious of
your own state? And do you know
whether you are free man or not?
AL. | think that | am very conscious
indeed of my own state.
Soc. And do you know how to escape
out of a state which do not even like
to name to my beauty?
AL. Yes, do.
Soc. How?
AL. By your help, Socrates.
Soc. That is not well said, .Alcibiades
AL. What ought to have said:
soc. By the help of God.
AL. agree; and further say, that

From this day forward, must and viii

Soc. 0 that is rare. Like the stork
then, my love will be cherished in turn
by the winged love which have Matched

OVER THE RIVER.

Over the river they beckon to me-
Loved ones whove passed to the further
side
The CLEAN of their snowy robes | see,
But their voices are lost in the dashing tide.
There is one with rnglets of sunny gold
And yes the reflection of heavens own
blue;
He crossed in the twilight gray and cold
And the pale misthid him from mortal view.
We saw not the angels who met him there,
The gates of the city we could not sec
Over the river, over the river,
My brother stands waiting to welcome met
Over the river the boatman pale
Carried another, the household pet;
Her brown curs waved in the gentle gale
Darling Minniel ! see her yet.
She crossed on her bosom her dimpled hands
And fearlessly entered the phantom bark
We felt ii glide from the silver sands,
And all our sunshine grew strangely dark;
We know she is safe the further side,
! Where all the ransomed and angels be
Overthe river, the mystic river,
My childhood's idol is waiting for me.
For none can return from those quiet shores,
Who cross with the boatman cold and pale
We hear the dip of the golden oars,
| And catch the CLEAN of the snowy sail,
And 10! they have passed from our yearnine
| heart,
They cross the stream and are gone for aye
We may not sunder the veil apart
That hides from our vision the gates of day;
We only know that their banks no more
May sail with us DER LIES stormy sea.
Yet, somewhere, know, on the unseen shore,
They watch and beckon and wait for me.
| And sit and think when the sunsets gold
Is flushing river and hill and shore,
| shall one day stand by the water cold
And list for the sound of the boatman's oar;
| shall watch for CLEAN of the Tapping sail,
| shall hear the boat as it gains the strand;
I shall pass from sight with the boatman pale
To the better shore of the spirit land.
| shall know the loved who have gone before,
And joyfully sweet will the meeting be.
When over the river, the peaceful river,
The Angel of Death shall carry me.

How goes the money? Nay,
Don't everybody know the way?
IL goes for bonnets, coats and caps,
Silks, satins, muslins, velvets, grapes,
Shawls, ribbons, furs and furbelows,-
And that's the way the money goes.
How goes the money? Sure,
] wish the ways were something fewer
1t goes for wages, taxes, debts,
II goes for presents, goes for bets,
For paints, p0mmdde and eau-de.rose,
And that's the way the money goes
How goes the money? Now
I've scarce begun to mention how;
1t goes for laces, feathers, rings,
Toys, dolls and other baby things,
Whips, whistles, candies, bells and bows
And that's the way the money goes
How goes the money? Come,
know it doesn't go for rum;
1t goes for schools and Sabbath chimes.
1t goes for charity-sometimes
For missions and such things as those
And that's the way the money goes
How goes the money? There,
I'm out of patience, | declare;
1t goes for plays and diamond pins,
For public aims and private sins,
For hollow shams and silly shows
And that's the way the money goes,

Throughout the United States, and IN
Canada, this tree is known by the name
of White Oak The envrons of the small
town of Trois Rivieres, in Canada, latitude
46 degrees, 20 minutes, and the lower
part of the river Kennebeck. in the dis
trict of Maine, are the most northern
points at which it was observed by my
father and myself. Thence we traced it
along the seashore to a distance beyond
Cape Canaveral, latitude Is, and west
ward from the ocean to the country of
the Illinois,-an extent of more than 1900
miles from northeast to southwest, and
nearly as much from east to west Ii is,
however, by no means equally ditiused
over this vast tract; in the district of
Maine, Vermont, and Lower Canada, it is
| little multiplied, and its vegetation is REL
pressed by the severity of the winter
In the lower part of the Southern States,
in the Floridas and Lower Louisiana, il is
found on the borders of the swamps with
"A few other trees which likewise shun
dry and barren soil This region is gen-
orally so sandy that ii is covered with II
continued growth of Pines, as will be more
particularly mentioned in the descrip-
ton of the Long-leaved Pine. The White
Oak is observed also to be uncommon on
lands of extraordinary fertility, like those
of Tennessee, Kentucky and Genesee;
and, of all the spacious valleys wateredb by
the Western rivers, | have travelled whole
days in those States without seeing a
single stock, though the few that exist,
both there and in the Southern States,
exhibit the most luxuriant vegetation.
