Tb birds, against tbt April wind.
Flew northward, singing at they few;
They tang ! '-Tbt land wt leave behind
Has twords for corn- blades, blood for dew."
'-0 wild-birds, flying from the South.
What saw and heard ye, gating down?"
"We taw tht mortar't upturned mouth,
Tht tiokentd oainp, tht biasing town !
"Beneath the birouao't starry lamps,
We taw your march-wora children die
In shrouds of moss, in cypress swamps,
Wc saw your dead unoothned lie.
'We heard the starving prisonort'l sighs ;
And saw, from lino and trench, your sous
Follow our fight with home-sick eyes
Beyond the battery's suiokiug guns."
"And heard and saw ye only wrong
And pain," I cried, "0 wing-woru floiks?"
'We heard," they sang, "tho Freedmau's long,
The crash of Slavery s broken locks !
"Wttaw from new. uprising states
The Treason-nursing mischief spurned,
As, crowding Freedom's ample gates,
The long-estranged and lust returned.
"O'er dusky faces, seamad and old,
And hands born-bard with unpaid toil,
With bop in every rustling fold,
Wt saw your lUir-dropt Bag uncoil.
"And. struggling up through sounds accursed,
A grateful murmur climb the air,
A whisper scarcely heard at first,
It filled th listening Haaveut with prayer.
"And sweat and far, as from a star,
Replied a voice which mall not cease,
Till, drowning all the noise of wur.
It sings tb blessvd songs of peace '."
So to me, in a doubtful day
Of chill aud slowly greening spring,
Low stooping from thu cloudy gray,
Tb wild-birds sang or sacmcd to ling.
They vanished in the misty air,
The song went with them iu their Cigbi;
But lo ! l bey left lb sunset fuir,
Aud in th evening tber wai light.

a lucky fellow, and Cora will be a liuppy
woman. She's a loving little creature, mid
to lie emancipated trmu thu rule of tliut
dragoon in crinoline, her respected nianttnti,
would be happiness enough lor her; but to
be trantifcrred to the protection of my friend.
Allied lieu net t, l'ui afraid it will be too
much tor her little, timid heart to bear.,"
Allied hud discovered the true fliaracter
of Mrs. Graystone, the mother of hi be
trothed, and hud determined to accept bis
friend' ottered assistance iu getting lid t
her, for he had fully decided that the mu
tual happiness of Cora and biuisell must
not be eacrilieed by admitting her as a resi
dent member of his household.
The friends held a lonj conversation to
gether, iu which they laid their plans and
sireuoiheued their deleiice for the cam
paign
iU'iiitmbtr, Alfred,"' said Stephen "Weir
at parting, "there must be no confessions, 1
no goiug back from your position when it i
is once taken. Mrs." Graystone will take
advantage of every weak point. She may i
even persuade Cora that she cunnot live j
without her mother, as I doubt not she did
before the innocent little thing told you she
wished to have her live with you. But be ,
tinn, Cora is too guileless lo comprehend :
her mother s character, and tiiougii ttie uci ;
lady has lieeu moat despotic iu her rule, j
she has managed lo cover her iron sceptre
with velvet; and Cora who has always been
entirely submissive, ha never felt its weight
severely."
"She ought never to feel despotic rule, at
all, nnd, as my wife, she bhull not. Freedom
is the only couditiou for perfect develop
mom, and I vvish Corn to be my companion.
I see there must be no interference, anil
theto slmll be noue, iu the affairs of my
household."
"There will be if Mrs. Graystone is a
member of it."
"That ahc mu be for a little while, for
I have invited her, and 1 cunnot honorably
retract the invitation, unless she gies me
special cause, which I believe she will be
careful not to do. When Cora is my wife 1
cun explain to her why I w ill not let her
mother live with us, but not now. 1 must
let In r come."
"Well remember what we hove decided
upon. Don't let her stay. She must be
out-mua a'uvrcd, for you would not w ish to
have it said that you turned your mother in
law out of your house."
A month later Alfred Bennett and his
bride had alighted at the door of his c ity
residence. Wedding and bridal tour were
over and the youthful pair had come home.
Whut a world of happiness wus in the aweet
thought that henceforth the same roof should
shelter both, while for each thu other', pres
ence made their dwelliug-pluce that most
beautiful and sacred of all other institutions,
a home, that word, which epitomises all
that coucerns domestic life, its joys und its
cares, its blessillirs und it utllif tiolis ullcvia
; ict . bi-cuusu shured w ith tho best beloved.
I 'there was but one shudow over their
joy. Even Cora leltt, nitieh as she loved,
innocently, a she trusted and believed Iter
mother. It was that meteor prcsci'.co in
the uew home, to her vaguely unwelcome,
wild not even acknowledged as such, but to
Allied hateful, Ucause he now iualicctively

Cora had lived alone with her mother nil
her life. Shu had been accustomed to nl'
her implicitly, to drpcud ou her entirely.
It lollowed, a a natural conaeuiience ol
this training thut thu had no cll reliance.

over the servant from the dignified house
keeper who had passed her litis in the ser
vice of Mr. Beenett's mother, to the newly
hired domestics whom Mrs Hates had al
ready had a month in training. And she
met them nt the door and received litem al
most ns if she was mistress, und they her
guests.
Cora was quite satisfied. Site liatl never
been accustomed to be first anywhere and il
was enough for her to reach home nt last,
und sit down with the dearest friends in
those beautifu'i rooms. She was quite will
ing that her mother should give orders, und
manage the servants, and appoint the hours
for meals, in short, assume the duties of
mistress, even to silting at the head of the
'able, because that left her free to sit beside
Alfred, to pile his plate w ith dainties anil
to display as liniiiy winning ways as fIik
dared in Mrs. (Iraystone's dignified presence.
She was quite surprised at the frown that
gathered and deepened on Alfred's brow,
I during the first meal in their own house, at
j which Mrs. Uraystoue presided. And she was
still more surprised w hen, as soon as they
were alone, he informed her that it was his
wi.h that she should at once nsstimc all the
duties and dignities of mistress of the house
hold. "Hut my mother is so accustomed to such
matters, I would prefer to have Iter attend
to them all.
"Your mother is your guest, Cora, nnd
must be treated as such. 1 must not see my
wile degraded in her own house. There is
a propriety which must be maintained."
Cola acquiesced, for she had always yielded
to a stronger will, but was not without
some misgivings that she entered the break
fast ioi m the follow ing morning. Mrs.tJray
stone was already seated at the table, and
smilingly greeted her children from behind
the colicc-urn as they entered ; and Corn
pressed her husband's arm in token that, lie
was to remain silent, lie paid no heed to
tiie signal, but approaching Mrs. (iraystone,
politely nlVered her his at in, saying:
".My wife will assume herplaeeas mistress
of the household, this morning, and we will
1 not trouble vour father, inaituine! Allow
me to give you another seat.''
Mrs (iraystone was taken by surprise.
She said something of Cora's being fatigued,
and of her readiness to save her all trouble,
but there was Alfred Ilcnnett's offered arm,
and smiling, imperturbable face, and she
was forced to yield. She choked down her
rage, and with an attempt to turn the whole
affair into a jest, she rose und took her seat
to Alfred led' her.
The meal was a most uncomfortable one
for all three, though Alfred talked contin
ually, determined not to notice Mrs. Crity
stone's dignih'od ill humor nor Cora's tearful
embarrassment. As they were raising from
the table he addressed his wife.
"Cora, i tear, had you better not have in
Mrs. Hales fur her orders, now '. i Hit liit
dinner in our home lutist be a very tine one,
and 1 should like to hear yon order it."'
"Oil Alfred, don't ask nie to do ihat.
Mamma, Iain sure, wiil attend to the order
ing of dinner."
Indeed, we should be very much obliged
to you, madam." Alfred replied, "but Mrs.
Hun s is not accustomed to receive orders
from my guests, and of course is waiting to
t;ike Hum from her mistress."'
The bell was rung, and Mrs. Bates
in. She had alreadv received her cue
cntne
allusion was made to Mrs. (iraystone's orders,
and that lady sat by speechless with rage,
while Cora, aided not a little by her house
keeper's suggestion gave her orders for din
ner. When she wus gone, Alfred politely
inquired if Mrs. Graystone wished to go out,
aud offeied to order the enrrmge for her
declining he gave her his arm, and with the
utmost ceremony, escorted her to her apart
ment. Two or three days passed in this way.
All Mrs. (iraystone's struggles for mastery
were met with a determined opposition,
disguised by such ceremonious politeness
that she could lind no ground for complaint.
She-was treated us a distinguished guest,
while it was evid -nt to her that no interfer
ence in the management of the household
would be tolerated.
At the end of that time she charged her
nctics. She preserved a mournful silence
iu the presence of Alfred Bennett, and for
several days remained secluded in her own
apartments, save at the hour of meals, Cora
became very unhappy, but Allied explained
to her the grounds of.thoe aggressions sell the English, and so the latter wasoblig
w hich would, if allowed to proceed, destroy ed to come to Huntsman, lie had taken no
the peace, and comfort, and dignity ot their
home lives, lie concealed Ins ow u impres
sions of her character, but was firm in the
desire that she should maintain truthfully
the position which of right belonged to
her.
Mrs. Grnystone's next movement, after
preserving for some time an obstinate si
lence not to be softened by Cora's entreat ies,
was to deplore her unfortunate marriage.
"You have a splendid home, my child,"
she said, w hile tears rolled over her cheeks,
"but it is no better than u gilded cage. How
I wish that the past three month could be
recalled, and that 1 had you once more in
our hoiiie, free from the clutches of the cold
tyrant that rails you wife. .Poor! unhappy
child ! it breaks your ' titer's heart to see
you thus, and to know that, wretched as
you iiitut be there i no escape !''
Hut now she had in her ma'aee quite
overshot the murk. Cora's ullegiutice had
laen transferred by the magic of love. With
all of u wile's loyalty, she repelled the ac
rusasion. Alfred wu ull that was kind, all
that was lining, ami no man could be less
a tyrant. Mia, ( jratstono siohed, ahook
her ' bead, and talked of the future. But,
tbr that time, made no impression on Co
rn. But Cora was new to life, and uutised to
care and responsibilities. At thu charms
of novelty w ine off, .lie litened inoru freely
when her mother talked of her bunhua.
And the bud altnoat implanted tho aeed of
distrust in thu voting wile bruit, when

THE VULCANS OP ALBION.
Samuel Smiles is a most industrious com
piler, and his books, like the tales in the
Arabian Nights, may be said to breed one
another. In the course of liis researches
while preparing a recent work entitled
"Lives of Engineers," ho frequently cam.e
ucross the tracks of celebrated inventor,
mechanics and iron-workers, whoso labors
seemed to him well worthy ot finding some
permanent record. Hinc illne lachrynue.
Hence a new bonk, published in t'lis coun
try by Ticknor & fields, under the title
"Industrial Biography : Irou-Workcrs und
Tool-Makers."'
Preceding tho biographies with a history
of iron its relation to civilisation nnd early
iron manufacture in Englund, he opens the
personal sketches with one of
DID I) en I EV,
the father of iron-working in Fngiand, and
the Chancer of the iron poets (to use a fanci
ful imaged w ho have since made England
great. Jle was one of eleven illegitimate
children, and does not seem to be at all
ashamed of it, for in tin otlicial document
he speaks of his mother as "Elizabeth
daughter of William Touilinsoii of Dudley,
concubine of Edward Lord Dudley."'
Dudley village was the centre of n manu
facturing district, and the Earl himself had
large iron works where Dud used to pass
much of his time. As he grew to be a man
he established iron-works of his own, lie
wrote a treatise mi iron, he built immense
furnaces, and became overwhelmed with
debt. lie invented an important system of
iron smelting. In the Cromwellian war he
fought on the King's side, was in 104$ cap
tured, stripped almost naked, and in tri
umph carried up to the gates of Worcester
i w-hich place Dud had forfeited for the King)
and put iu prison.
With tt party of other prisoners, he, how
ever, managed to escape iu August of the
same year. As he had received a wound iu
the leg he had to stumble across the coun-
try on crutches, and thus reached Bristol.
U. , , .. . i , . , .
is estates.had been cotihscated but he. yet
wus sole possessor of his secret for smelting
iron with pit-coul, and finding a moneyed
partner built auoilii.r foundry, but soon
ijuarielled with his business associates, und
tlie allair was brought to a staud still. On
the restoration he niaile a variety of claims
for damages he had suffered during the civil
war, again built foundries, published his
treatise .Metallutii .Mat tia in 1 Gtij, and dieel
in his eighty -fourth year, after a life of sin
gular lassitude.
TUH IN VLNTlON OK CAST-STEEL.
Cunt-steel was invented, Mr. Smiles tells
us, by one B njaiuin Huntsman, who was
born in Lincolnshire in 1 TO t. He was the
son ol (iennan parents, and when a boy, was
noted lor his skill in mcudim; clocks and
i locks. He also early obtained some roputa
i tion as an oeculist. In Doneusler he began
making experiments in the improvement of
steel, but it was many weary years before
the desired result was achieved; yet it was
j achieved at last, and although a hundred
I years have passed since Huntsman's discov
ery, the description of the fuel (coke) w hich
i he tir.-t applied for the pupose ol making
the steel, and crucibles nnd furnaces which
he used, were, for the most part, similar to
those in use at the present day. Although
the making of cast-steel, as invented by
Benjamin Huntsman, is now conducted w itli
greater economy and dexterity, owing to
increased experience, it is questionable
whether any maker has since been able to
surpass the quality of Huntsman's manufac
tures. Yet his own countrymen, the Sheffield
cutlers, with true British obstinacy, refused
to use his cast-steel, aud he had to send it
abroad for sale ou the continent. In u short
I time thu rreneh cutlers were able to under-
patent lor his iuveution, his only protection
being iu preserving his process as much a
mystery us possible ; all his workmen were
pledged to inviolable secrecy, strangers were
carefully excluded from his works, nnd the
whole of his steel was cast at night.
Of course there were plenty of efforts
many of them dishonorable enough to un
veil the secret. All iron founder named
Walker at last discovered it by adopting
the ru-e of disguising himself as a wandering
"tramp," and feigning great distress and
abject poverty, hhneritig with cold at the
door of Huntsman's foundry late one night
when the workmen was about to begin their
labors at steel casting, he asked for admis
sion to warm himself by the furnace lire.
The humane workmen found the appeal
irresistible, and the apparent beggar was
aibiiilteel and provided with a snug corner,
w liere he pretended to full asleep. But be
watched thu process ol hteel-iuaking ; and
U'loru many mouths hud passed the Hunts
man manufactory wa. not the only one where
ete.t-teel wu produced.
Huntsman was a IJuuker, eccentric, inn
very benevolent; hu died in 1770, iu his
.eveiity-setoiid year, aud wus buried at At
lerelille churchyard.
AN I'MtLql'ITCU llKNKKACTon.
The principal iron founder of England
during the last century ui one Henry Cort,
to w hum England owes the production ot
wrought iron for machinery, for kleum en
gines, und for railway, at one third thu
prim it was U-foiu nceuatomcd lo pay to

young Hramnh's favorite Lnunt. His first
regular work was at ploughing, but when
sixteen years old he hurt his ankle, was un
fitted for farm work, and apprenticing him
self to a carpenter, lie soon became, an ex
pert workman, turning nut ploughs nnd fid
dles, window-frames violoncellos with equal
skill. Ambitious to improve in his trade.
I he went on foot to London, wliere he found
work in n cabinet-maker's shop, nnd where
he made a number of useful litfleinveniionv.
At last he discovered some new method of
pomp-making for which he took out a pa
tent, nnd remembering his old friend the
Yorkshire blacksmith, sent for him to take
charge of the locksmith's work.
In 17T3 Urnmali first turned his attention
to locks, which were then very poor nnd
ensily picked. Hnirnfth invented a lock nud
took out a patent therefor ; and for nearly
eighty years the Hratuah lock was regarded
as utterly invincible.
In 1831, llobbs, the American, r-rrwecd the
ocean nnd succeeded in picking it. But it
took even llobbs nolens than sixteen days of
manipulation, during which he used a varie
ty of elaborate instruments, which no burg
lar coultl hope to own.
Dramah, after the success of his lock, oc
cupied himself with makitig hydraulic
pumps ; making pens ; and making machines
for pulling up trees nnd for hoisting goods
into warehouses ; but his name is now
principally associated with the Bramnh lock,
lie was so high in authoritv in mechanical
affairs that when any difficulty occurred
which mechanical ingenuity was likely to
remove recourse was usually had to Bramnh
and he wus rarely found at a loss for n con
trivance to overcome it. "Thus, when ap
plied to by the Bank of England, in 1800,
to construct a machine for more accurately
and expeditiously printing the numbers and
date lines on bank notes, he at once pro
ceeded to invent the necessary model, which
he completed in the course of a mouth."
And the same instrument, with his own
subsequent improvements, isst'.li inconstant
use, saving much clerical labor and ensuring
the greatest accuracy and legibility.

Our Nntionol Reourcej.
No subject connected with the war seemt
to be more misrepresented and niisundcr
stood thnn that of the relation of our debt
to our resources. Thousands of patriotic
nr.d well mem, inn per.ons have been annulled
at the angVneiiHng magnitude of the former,
forgetful that the value of the latter keeps
even pace wilh it. The example of England
shows this curious fuct, nnd we call the at
tention jf capit ilists and the public gener
ally to i. At the end of her gieat wnr in
1810 England had swelled her debt up to
an aggregate of four thousand three hun
dred millions of dollars; but in the sama
time her wcaliu was estimated at ten thou
sand four hundred millions of dollars, so
that the country, instead of being impover
ished by the war, -tally attained that prent
impettts whirh has made her the wealthiest
nation in the world. The basis thus esta
blished has never been weakened, for whilo
her debt otill rentlu.'? the enormous sum of
tluee thousand eight hundred and ninety
millions of dollars, her wealth has risen to
thirty one thousand five hundred millions.
The secret of this phenomenon lies in tho
fact that this debt is owned by her own peo-.
pie. The interest paid tipou it is paid into
their pockct9. It is the safest investment in
the kingdom, and constitutes the real stan
dard ol values. Banks, bunkers and corpo
rations of all kinds seek it as the guarantee
of their soundness. Were the bulk of it
held abroad, the case would be otherwise
But held at home, it is actual capital
in a thousand ways, and enriches the people
instead of being a burden upon them. For
while the amount of the debt has diminish
ed but little relatively, tliB wealth of the
country has gone on" increasing until the
former, in the year 1801, had become a
charge upon the lutter of only 12i per cent.,
wnereas in isiu it was s weight ot more
than 41 per cent.
In the year 18(50 the wealth of the United
States was fourteen thousand one hundred
and eighty-three millions, of which ten thou
sand seven hundred and sixteen milllions
was ow ned in the loyal States, some three
hundred and sixteen millions more thau
that of England in 1810. Our wealth in
creases much more rapidly than that of any
other country. From 1S10 to 1830 the in
crease was 64 per cent., from 1830 to I860
it was 127 per cent. SinceMiRt period the
progress ot agriculture, settlement, manu
factures, building improvements, railways,
mining und internal commerce has been un
precedented. All this has been aided nnd
stimulated by three causes viz: the debt
held at home constituting an active capital;
the introduction of a sound national paper
currency, and the stimulant to domestic iu
dustry produced by the demand for mate
rial of war.
