ITALY.
MY WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT
Voices from the mountain speak,
Appenines to Alps reply;
Vale to vale, and peak to peak,
Toes an old remembered cry:
Italy
Shall be free;
Such the mighty shout that fills
AU the passes of her hills.
All the old Italian lakes
Quiver at that quickening word;
Como with a thrill awakes;
Garde, to her depths is stirred;
'Mid the steeps
Where he•sleeps,
Dreaming of the elder years,
Startled Thrasymenus hears.
Sweeping Arno,_ swelling Po,
Murmur freedom to their meads.
Tiber swift and Lids slow,
Send strange whispers from their reeds.
Italy
Shall be free,
Sing the glittering brooks that slide
Toward the sea, from Etna's side.
Long ago was Grainbus slain;
Brutus perished long ago;
Yet the living roots remain,
Whence the shoots of greatness grow:
Yet again,
God-like men,
Sprung from that heroin stem,
Call the land to visa with them.
They who haunt the swarming street;
They who chase the mountain boar,
Or, where cliff and billow meet,
Prune the vine or pull the oar,
With a stroke
Break their yoke';
Slaves hut yester-eve were they—
Freemen with the dawning day.
Looking in his ebildren's eyes,
While hie own with gladness flash,
"Ne'er shall these," the father cries,
"Cringe, like hounds, beneath the lash
These shall ne'er
Brook to wear
Chains that, thick with sordid rust,
Weigh the spirit to the dust."
Monarchs, ye whore armies stand,
Harnessed for the battlefield;
Pause, and from the lifted hand,
Drop the bolts of war ye wield.
Stand aloof
While the proof
Of the people's might is given;
Leave their kings to them and Heaven.
Stand aloof and see th' oppressed
Chase the oppressor, pale with fear,
As the lgesh winds of the west
Blow the misty valleys clear.
Stand and see
Italy
Cast the gyves she wears no more,
To the gulfs that steep her shore.
For the American Presbyterian.

Sad notes, and yet sadder prevailing,
As they onward roll,
Seem to my ear, as the wailing
Of a prisoned soul.
Drooping. 0 spirit in sadness,
Through the long night;
Wake, to the bright morn of gladness!
Christ is the light !
List to the sweet evangel—
Bear the accord—
To us. shout the glad-voiced angels—
A: Saviour; tue Lcitzti
Though the eden of good, which be gave ue,
Our pride bath scorned ;
And we've gathred instead from th' bleak waste
The thistle and thorn;
and, Oh! though temptation assaileth
Oft through the day;
And human strength naught araileth,
Its power to stay ;
And we cannot feel out, in our blindness,
The law of the wise;
Yet He in His merciful kindness,
Will open our eyes!
And leading our feet to our duty,
Light from the skim
Will open a world full of beauty,
To our wondering eyes.
No offering vain. He desirettt,
No sackcloth. nor dust;
No altar of blood requiretb,
But only our trust!
0, sit at Elie feet, with the children
Whom His lips blessed ;
Come, and accept His sure promise,
To give thee rest.
Nor slight for poor worldly reason,
The low path He trod;
For though hidden sometimes for a season,
'Twill lead thee to God!
Alladelpbia, Oct. 25th t 1860
AN NONEST ARAB
"Scotchman, Xpress, Mercury, fusees, penny a
humler—tbis day's Scotch:lan, Sir!" shouted a
shrill-piped, ragged little fellow, at the end of a
cold, yet, bitter day in October, as we stood at the
door of the New Royal in Princes Street, while
stopping for a day or two in Edinburgh a short
timo since.
"No, we don't want any."
"Fumes, penny a builder, Sir; this day's pa
per, Sir—half price, Sir—only a bnwbee, " per
mated the young countryman of Adam Smith.
"Get along, don't want any," growled my
travelling companion, Phillips.
" They're good fumes, Sir, penny a hunder."
"Don't smoke."
"They're gude fumes, Sir, hunder and twenty
fOr a penny, Sir," coming round on my flank.
a No, don't want 'em, my boy."
The keen, blue face,
with its red, bare feet in
grained with dirt, and bundle of scanty rags,
looked piteously up at me, moved off a little, but
still hovered around us. Now, when I put down
illy first subscription to the Ragged School in
Westminster, I took a mental pledge from myself
to encourage vagrant children in the streets no
More. Somehow in this instance that pledge
iouldn't stand by me, but gave way.
"Give me a penn'orth, young 'un."
"Yes, Sir—they diuna smell."
44 Ah, I haven't got a copper, nothing less than
a shilling; so, never mind, my boy, I'll buy from
you to-morrow."
," Buy them the nicht, if you please. I'm very
hung-grey, Sir."
Ills little cold face, which had lightened up,
now fell, for, from his bundle of 4 apers,kl saw his
sales had been few that day.
"I'll gang for change, Sir."
" Well, ru try you—there is a shilling—now be
a good boy, and bring me the change to-morrow
morning to the hotel—ask for Mr. Turner."
" As sure's death, Sir, I'll bring the change the
morn," was the promise of the boy before he
vanished with the shilling.
" Well, Turner," said Phillips, as we strolled
alung Princes Street, "you don't expect to see
your ragged friend again, do you?"
, 4 I do. "
"The boy will dishonor his I. Q. U. as sure
SEI—
" Well, I won't grieve about the money; but I
think I otn trust the boy."
" Can ? Why, you have trusted him."
" Well, we'll see:
"Yes, a good many remarkable things, but not
young brimstone and your money."
Next morning we spent in seeing the lions.
On oar•reture to the inn, I inquired:
"Waiter, did a little boy call for me to-day ?"
"Boy, Sir 7—call, SO No, Sir."
"Of course, he didn't," said 'Phillips. " Did
you really expect to see your young Arab again?"
" Indeed, I did."
Later in the evening a small boy was intro
duced, who wished to speak with me. He was a
duodecimo edition of the small octavo of the pre
vious day, a shoeless, shirtless, shrunk, ragged,
wretched, keen-witted Arab of the streets and
closes of the city. He was so very small, and
cold, and child-like—though with the same
shivering feet and franie, thin, blue-cold face,
down which tears had worn their weary channel
—that I saw at once the child was not my friend
of the previous night.
He stood for a few minutes diving and rum
maging into the recesses of his rags; at last he
said:
"Are you the gentleman that boucht fusees
frae Sandy yesterday?"
"Yes, my little man."
Weel, here's seven pence (counting out divers
copper coins,) Sandy canna come; he's no weel;
a can run ow'r him the day, and broken his legs,
and lost his bonnet, and his fusees, and your four
pence piece, and his knife, and he's no weel.
He's no weel, ava, and the doc-tor says—says
he's dee—dee—in, and—and that's a' he can gie
you noo." And the poor child, commencing with
sobs, ended in a sore fit of crying.
I gave him food, for, though his cup of sorrow
was full enough, his stomach was empty, as he
looked wistfully at the display on the tea-table.
" Are you Sandy's brother? "
"Ay, Sir;" and the flood-gates of his heart
again opened.
" Where do you live? Are your father and
mother alive 7"
" We bide in Blagfriars_lNE3r.nd, in the-Cnoesue--
Timmer's detta - ; and father's awa, and we bide
whiles wi' our gudcmither," sobbing bitterly.
" Where did this accident happen?"
"Near the college, Sir."
Calling. a cab, we were speedily set down at
Blackfriars Wynd. I bad never penetrated the
wretched places of these ancient cities by day, and
here I entered one by night, and almost alone.
Preceded by my little guide, I entered a dark,
wide, winding stairs, until, climbing wany flights
of stairs in total darkness, he opened a door,
whence a light maintained a feeble, unequal strug
gle with the thick, close-smelling, heavy gloom.
Nly,courage nearly gave way as the spectacle of
that room burst upon me. In an apartment, cer
tainly spacious in extent, but scarcely made visible
by one guttering candle,stuck in a bottle, were an
over-crowded mass of wretched beings, sleeping on
miserable beds spread on; upon the floor, or
squatted or reclining upon the cold, unfurnished
boards.
Stepping over a prostrate quarrelling drunkard,
I found lirtle Sandy on a bed of carpenter's sha
vings on the floor. He was still in his rags, and
a tern and scanty coverlet had been thrown over
him. Poor lad! he was so changed. His sharp,
pallid face was clammy and cold—beads of the
sweat of agony standing on his brow—his bruised
and mangled body lay motionless and still, except
when sobs and moaning heaved his fluttering breast.
A bloated woman, in maudlin drunkenness, (the
dead or banished father's second wife, and not his
mother,) now and then bathed his lips with
whisky-and-water, while she applied to her own a
bottle of spirits to drown the grief she hiccuped
and assumed. A doctor from the Royal Infirmary
had called and left some medicine to soothe the
poor lad's agony, (for his case was hopeless, even
though lie had been taken at first, as he ought to
have been, to the Infirmary in the neighborhood,)
but his tipsy nurse had forgotten to administer it.
I applied it, and had him placed upon a less misera•
ble bed of straw ; and, teeing a woman, an occu
pant of the room, to attend him during the night,
I gave what directions I could, and left the de
graded, squalid home.
Next morning I was again in Blackfriars Wynd.
Its close, estilential air, and towering, antique,
dilapidated mansions (the abode of the peerage in
tar-off times) now struck my senses. Above a
doorway was carved upon the stone—" Except ye
toru du bui d yc6vuaei 7cbuilders-build in vain's" -
I said the room was spacious, it was almost no
ble in its proportions. The walls of pannelled oak
sadly marred, a massive marble mantel-piece of
cunning carving, ruthlessly broken and disfigured,
enamelled tiles around the fire-place, once repro
:,enting some Bible story, now sore despoiled and
cracked, and the ceiling festooned' with some an
tique fruit and flowers, shared in the general Van
dal wreck. With the ex,teptinn of a broken
chair, furniture there was none in that stifling den.
Its occupants, said the surgeon, whom I found
at the sufferer's bed, were chiefly of our cities'
pests, and the poor lad's stepmother—who had ta
ken him from the ragged school that she might
drink of his pitiful earnings—was as sunk in in
famy as any there.
For the patient, medical skill was naught, for
he was sinking fast. The soul looking from his
light-blue eyes was slowly ebbing out, his pallid
cheeks were sunk and thin, but consciousness re
turned, and his lamp was flicke'ring up before it
sunk forever. As I. took his feeble band, a flicker
of recognition seemed to gleam across his face.
"I got the change, and was comin'—"
"My poor boy, you were very honest. Have
you any wish—anything, poor child, I can do tor
you? I promise to—"
" Retiby, I'm sure I'm deein,' who will take
care o' you noo?"
Little Reuben was instantly in a fit of crying.
and himself prostrate on the bed. "0, Sandy!
Sandy! Sandy!" sobbed his little heart. •
"I will see to your little brother."
"Thank you, Sir! Dinna--dinna leave me,
Reu—Reu--by. Pm com—comin,'
"Whist! whist!" cried little Reub looking up,
and turning around to implore some silence in the
room. That moment, the calm, faded smile, that
seemed to have alighted as a momentary visitant
upon his face, slowly passed away, the eyes be
came blank and glazed, and his little life imper
ceptibly rippled out.
The honest-boy lies in the Canongate church
yard, not far from the grave-stone put up by
Burns to the memory of, Ferguson, his brother
poet, and I have little Reuben at Dr. Guthrie's
ragged.school, and receive excellent accounts of
him, and from him.
CRILDREN LOST IN " THEWOODS._- _
The Hornellsville Journal states that three
young children of Mr. and Mrs. J. 13. Howley of
that place, went into the woods on Saturday, to
pick berries, without the consent of their parents,
and wandered about till lost. Not returning be
fore evening, the anxious parents, in company
with nearly one hundred others, started for the
woods and succeeded in finding them. It seems
that, after having picked enough berries, they
thought it time to return home, but, on turning
about for that purpose, they found themselves in
a strange place, and could not find their road or
way out. They sat down on a log to think, and
sat there a long time, finally believing they were
lost. Mary, the eldest, said to the others, "Let
us pray to God to help find our way out," and all
kneeling there by the log, with hands uplifted,
they prayed for deliverance. They then took a
new start, and soon found whortleberries plenty,
with which they satisfied their hunger.
The little ones now commenced calling aloud
the names of the different members of the family;,
Carrie, the youngest, culling repeatedly for milk,
and complaining of fatigue, she sat down to rest.
Ida, the second, was tired and sleepy, and would
rather stay there than try any longer to get out.
Mary then stripped the bark from a dead tree,
and laid it on the ground•for a pillow, covering it
with leaves, and the two youngest laid down to
sleep. She found that the sun had gone down,
and that it was getting dark, and she again knelt
down to pray for deliverance, and that God would
take care of them. She had made up her mind
to stay there the night, knowing that she could
not find the way out herself :0 She knew the night
would be long, and the little ones might wake be
fore morning hungry, so she filled her pocket with
wintergreens to pacify them—every few minutes
during the time calling upon the different mem
bers of the family. When found, the two young
est were sleeping, and the eldest, not yet ten years
of age, was on her knees praying. ,

OCCUPATIONS OF WOMEN IN FRANCE
The great social problem which at present is
engaging the benevolent of our country—bow shall
we find employment for those of our female popu
lation whose condition places them above menial
service?—has long and successfully been solved in
France. It is considered there that when a lady
goes to purchase a dress or a pair of gloves, a
trinket for herself or a toy for her children, she
will prefer being served by one of her own sex,
rather than by a broad-shouldered specimen of
the other. So long as the soil demands cultiva
tors, the country soldiers and mechanics, mer
chants and artisans, such as only the brain and
strength of manhood can supply, it is thought
an ungallant and unseemly invasion of the rights
of the weak, that any employment for which they
are peculiarly qualified should be taken from
them. Woman, that finds both her virtue,
comfort, and delight in labor,
is permitted, in
consequence,, to exercise it. She often acts as
ticket-dispenser at railway-stations, as book-keeper
at hotels and shops, and as attendant on the
heaped tables of the reading-room. The watch
maker consigns to her delicate touch the finer part
of his mechanism, and the jeweller the setting of
his costly gems; the wood-engraver expects his
most delicate and tasteful cuts from her; and
the picture-dealer invites her to plant her easel in
the Louvre or _Luxemburg, to reproduce, as she
well can, the master-pieces of ancient or modern
art. Nor is the mallet of the sculptor considered
to disgrace the hands of a princess—one of the
noblest statues of modern times, representing
Joan of Arc clasping the consecrated sword, being
the production of a daughter of the late Citizen
King.
the The individual and social advantages
whim ho tae ttrat4s-th-te3-paid--ta-laber_brina
are incalculable. Pride is never permitted to
interfere with usefulness; and many a young
female who would have been debarred, as with ps,
by its pernicious influence, from the honorable
employment of her powers, and been tempted to
seek a refuge from poverty in a life of shame, is
enabled, by the wiser and more merciful arrange
ments which obtain in France, to secure a virtu
ous and comfortable independence.
This recognition of female usefulness, and
respect accorded to its exercise, is attended by
other important results to the welfare and arrange
ments-, of society. No well conducted young
woman is condemned to the cheerlessness of old
tuaidish life. A young female trained to the idea
that she has a position of activity to fill, and work
to do, is regarded by the other sex, who have
marriage in prospect, not in the light of an ex
pensive incumbrance, but as a help and a gain;
and it will depend on herself alone if, at a com
paratively early age, she does not obtain the
opportunity of being a happy wife.

A UNITED ITALY
All Italy formed into one compact monarchy!--
or, say all Italy, with the exception of that part
which has been left under the dominion of Aus
tria—tire design is one which must kindle the ima
gination of the coldest politician. A kingdom of
Italy which would soon compete in population, in
wealth, in intelligence with the kingdom of France
—what an accession to the great family of Euro
pean nations! Not an acre of land, nor a single hu
man soul, would be added to Europe, and still there
would be a new creation—a new people, with re
newed energies. France, England and Germany
have long represented the growth and progress of
the world; they have been the foremost and ad
vancing nations of Europe; now a fourth would
come amongst them, who, in every career, whether
of art, science, industry, or war, would be second
to none., Every one feels directly that Italy would
be a new, power; that the intellect of the nation
would spring up as from a sleep. Commerce and
industry would revive, new schools of art would
appear, and, above all, new universities or uni
vefeitcei—thilt-iiilrleaili industry in
quite a new spirit. Elitherto the youth of Italy,
the youth of the middle classes, on whom the vi
gour and energy of each coming age depends, has
been cruelly maltreated, "cabined cribbed, con
fined," and then pronounced to be capable of no
thing better than a theatrical and coffee-hot/se ex
istence. Let us hope that France will nut be im
pelled, by'some feeling of distrust and jealousy, to
oppose and thwart this great regeneration of a
people who, in the arts of peace, in the prosecu
tion of science and' philosophy,—if not in mate
rial wealth and power,--ruay soon be its distiu
guished rival.
HOW . TO PROSPER IN BusrN.Ess.--In the first
place, make up your mind to accomplish whatever
you undertake; decide upon some particular em
ploy trte . nt, and persevere in it. All difficulties are
overcome by diligence and assiduity.
Be not afraid to work with your hands, and
diligently too. "A cat in gloves catches no mice."
He who remains in the mill, grinds; not he who
goes and comes.
Attend to your business; never trust to anyone
else. "A pot that belongs to too many is ill=
stirredand worse boiled."
Be frugal. "That which will not make a pot,
will make a pot-lid." "Save the peace, and the
pounds will take care of themselves."
Be abstemious. "Who dainties love, shall beg
gars prove."
_
Rise early. "The sleepy fox catches no poul
try."
" Plow deep, while sluggards sleep, and you
will have corn to sell and keep."
Treat every one with respect and civility:
"Every thing is gained, and nothing lost, by cour
tesy." "Good manners insure success."
Never anticipate wealth from any other source
than labor; especially never place dependence upon
becoming the possessor of an inheritance. "He
who waits for dead men's shoes, may have to go a
long time barefoot" "Re who runs after a
shadow, path a wearisome race."
Above all things, never despair. God is where
he was. "He helps those who truly trust in
him."
ItaiY. - -CIARIBALDI AND WAS/ELM GTON.—T4 cor
respondent of the Christian Adoocale and Journal
writes as follows from Genoa:
do not think that the Italians intend or even de
sire to give up the Roman Catholic religion. From
all that I can learn they are devotedly attached to
their church, and in turn will fight for it. But they
are demanding a separation of chureh and state, and
hope thereby to purify the priesthood of its mercena
ries and hypocrites. And this is the great object of
Garibaldi, the Washington of Italy. It will amuse
you when I. tell you that in the print shops of Genoa
the.portrait of Washington is'exhibited, and the Ge
noese have given his name to the hero of Palermo
and Naples. They have a good Ropy of the "Father
of his Country." He is attired in his military cos
tume, and his tall, commanding form appears to the
best advantage. My patriotism kindled as I looked
upon him, and I could not suppress a spontaneous
cheer to his glorious memory. The shopkeeper
caught the enthusiasm and joined in the shout, and
in turn demanded a viva for Garibaldi, the Washing
ton of Italy. To me the comparison seemed an as
sumption, though I was willing to indulge the ex
cited fancy of the vender of pictures. You know, as
Americans, we regard Washington without an ante
ceent and without a successor. Yet, in the spirit of
self-devotion to a great cause, staking every thing
upon the altars of his country, without ambitions
selfishness to be attained, and in a firm religious
trust-in God, sustained by daily prayer, Garibaldi is,
nut unlike the immortal Washington.

The marked, and ever extending, popularity of
SINGFIVS SEWING MACHINES, both in America
and Europe, is such as best to establish their superiority
over all others in the market. Sewing machines (so
called) may be bought, it is true, for a smaller amount
of dollars, but it ismistaken economy to invest anything
in a worthless or unreliable article, and those who do
so must abide the consequence!

A WONDERFUL CURE OF ASTHMA ASTHMA

remedy for Pulmonary Diseases is equally successful in
all countries and climates in subduing diseases.
The Rev. Eugenia Kincaid, a Missionary in Burma.h,
writes:—
It is rare that we we any medicine except your pre
parations. About three m onths since, a'.Burnoan female
of rand, who called on us, as we learned from her hus
band, had suffered for EIGHTY TEARS with ASTHMA, and
often, for weeks together, had been unable to sleep,
except in a sitting posture.
It was painful to look upon her emaciated frame and
distressed countenance. Feeling quite satisfied , that
no medicine could restore her to health,. we (i.. e., Dr.
Dawson and Mr. Kincaid) thought only of affording ,
some temporary relief; and gave her about one-third of
a bottle of your IMPECTORANT. One week after, her
husband came for more, and informed us that, for the
first time in eight rats she had slept sweetly. In one
1 month and a half she was entirely restored, and has

years with BRONCHITIS, and having heard of the won

DIFFICULTY OF BREATHING, srlyrtnc OF BLOOD, and other
diseases of the lungs, I purchased one bottle of it, and

for my disease, under the most skilful physicians, but
unfortunately without success. I was at last about to
give up in despair, *hen a kind friend thought of your
EXPECTORANT. I procured a bottle of it, and before I had
entirely-used-the whole - of - it, I felt manifest symptoms
of a change. for the better. !continued on using it, and
by the time I had taken five bottles, I found myself

building, No. 716 Chestnut street, which was entirely
destroyed by fire on the morning of the 17th inst.
So rapid was the progress of the flames, before we
could reach the store the whole interior was one mass
of fire. The Safe being in the back part of the store,
and surrounded by the most combustible materials, was
exposed to great heat. It fell with the walls of that
part of the building into the cellar, and remained im
bedded in the ruins for more than thirty hours.
The Safe was opened this morning in the presence of
a number of gentlemen, and the contents, comprising
our books, bills, receivable money, and a large amount
Of valuable papers, are all safe ; not a thing was touched
by lire.
