THIS GOODLY LAND OP OURS
0, 'tie a noble heritage—this goodly land of ours—
It boasts, indeed, no Gothic fame, nor ' , lvy-mantled

But far into the closing clouds its purple mountains

The sculpture of Omnipotence, the rugged. twins of
Time.
And then its interlinking lakes, its forests wild and

And .streams, the sinews of its strength, that feed it as
they glide;
Its rich primeval pasture grounds, fenced by the stoop

And mines of treasure, yet undelved, that 'neath its

Magnificent materials I how bath the hand of man

Behold, where cleaves the wingless bark, and flies the

Swift from the leafy wilderness upsprings the peopled
town,
While streams where rock'd the frail canoe a freighted
fleet bring down
nd where the panther howled unheard, and roamed
the grisly bear,
The domes of graceful temples swell where thousaids
kneel in prayer.
O surely a high destiny, which we alone cen mar,
Is figured in the horoscope where shines our risen star;
The monarchs all are looking on in hope some flaw to

Among the yet unbroken links that guard our liberty.
But may we disappoint the hope of every despot lord,
And keep our Union's Gordian knot uncleft by Faction's

And as with those girt in of yore, new provinces are

Still let us with fresh bands of love the sheaf of free

LUTHER AT ROME
Luther fell in love when his friends feared that
cruel persecution would send him to his grave.
For many years he had withstood the maledictions
of papal foes, a Christian hero of the noblest type,
but the shafts of Cupid hit him in a tender spot,
and he was conquered by the charms of woman.
Yes He who had said, " God may change my
purpose if such be his pleasure ; but at present I
have no thought of taking a wife, not that I am
insensible to the charms of married life; I am
neither wood nor stone; but I every day expect
death and the punishment of a heretic," he, even
became a wedded man. God did change his mind,
be is very apt to change men's minds who resolve
to conquer love.
The way was this. In the monastery of Nimptsch
in Saxony, there were nine nuns, into whose
minds a divine light had radiated till they hated
the cloister. They proposed to quit the latter,
but their parents commanded otherwise. They
conferred with each other, and resolved to leave
their dark abode of superstition, at all hazards.
They thought of the bold, fearless, magnanimous
Luther, and if they could only reach ' , The gate of
the old convent of the Augustines," where he re
sided, ere the tale of their flight was told to their
enemies, they would be safe. Two pious citizens,
who were let into the secret of their hopes and
plans, proffered their assistance. Their carriages
were ready at the appointed time and place, and
on the 7th day of April, 1523, these nine long
cloistered maidens were set down at Luther's door.
Such an unexpected advent of women might have
frightened him half out of his wits, bachelor of
forty years as he was, had he not been brave and
film. But he met them in a way that showed he
was " neither wood nor stone." He hastened out
to meet and welcome them.
"This is not my doing," he exclaimed, "but
would to God that 1 could, in this way, give liber
ty to enslaved consciences, and empty the clois
ters of their tenants." His friends rallied around
them, and proposed to receive them into their
families, and thus they found protection.
One f these maidens was Catherine Bora,
whose
excellent qualities made an impression on Luther's
heart. She had real worth, and she could live or
die for the truth. The Reformer found "himself
cherishing a tender regard for her, still he did not
mean to marry. He evidently thought, however,
that she ought to become the wife of some good
wan, for he recommended Baumgartner, of Nu
remburg, to wed her, and he declined. After
wards, he made a similar proposition to Doctor
Gluts, of Orlainund, and he was disposed to accept
it; but wise, excellent Catherine, acting on the
principle that "it takes two to make a bargain,"
refused to have him, whereupon Luther married
her himself, and always blest the day that he did.
He was certainly old enough to appreciate a wife,
being forty-two years of age, and his circumstances
were well suited to make him value a home as ashel ter
froin the storm of persecution that swept and warred
around him. The marriage brought down the
fury of his enemies more hotly than ever upon his
head. "It is incest," exclaimed Henry the Eighth.
"Anti-Christ must be the fruit of such a union,"
said others. Luther had been fighting against
indulgences eight years when he married, so that
he was used to warfare, and he let his papal foes
battle on over his nuptials, undisturbed thereby.
Catherine proved a true and faithful wife to
Luther, and he a loving husband and protector to
her. They were "equally yoked," and drew
together. They had a happy home, and Heaven's
benediction rested upon them. It was a sweet
and sacred spot to the great Reformer, and he loved
to flee thither from the turmoil, and the mighty
war of opinion that shook the world. Our en-
graving represents him iu the bosom of his family,
where the stern invincibility of the moral con
queror was lost in the tender "loves" of the hus
band and father. The man of iron nerve, who
could'withstand the thunders of the Vatican, yields
to the promptings of a loving nature, and chats
fondly with his wife, and sports with his children.
Around the hearthstone he seemed to drop
down from that defiant dignity and resolve, that
were indispensable for the defence of truth in
those perilous times, and became, as it were,
another man, so tender, familiar and playful was
he. His devoted Catherine poured into his willing
ear kind words of sympathy and affection, so that
he often went from his fireside with's brave heart,
when otherwise he might have looked gloomily
into the future. "The greatest of earthly blessings,"
said he to a friend, "is a pious and amiable wife,
who fears God and loves her family, one with
whom a man may live in peace, and in whom- he
may repose perfect confidence." And when his
favorite commentary on the Epistle to the Gala
tians was completed, wishing to christen it with
some title that should be expressive of the value
he set upon it, in a vein of pleasantry, he named
it his Catherine.
A more doting father never lived. He was in
full sympathy with his children in all their sports
and plays. By his affectionate bearing and tender
familiarity, he invested his home with a charm
that bound them to it. One of the methods which
he adopted to amuse his children was the celebra
tion of Christmas, which is decidedly a German
festival, baying its origin there, and, in his day,
almost universally observed with eclat'. A marked
feature of it in families and parishes was the
Christmas Tree, both old and young participating
in the festivities of the occasion. Luther could
gracefully descend from skirmishes with mitred
prelates, and the august Pope, to hanging presents
for his loved ones on the Christmas 'Tree.
It is probable that the great Reformer was a
more tender father in consequence of the recollec
tion of his own boyhood's experience. For, though
his parents were truly pious, they adopted the
general rule of the times, and used unjust, and
uruel chastisement to correct their son. In his
riper years, Luther said, "My parents treated me
cruelly, so that I became very timid; one day, for
a mere trifle,' my mother whipped me till the
blood came. They truly thought they were doing
right; but they had no discernment of character,
which is yet absolutely necessary, that we may know
when, on whom, and how, punishment should be
inflicted.". At school he farectlittle better. " His
master flogged hini fifteen times.one day," enough
surely, to reform the boy, who was destined to
reform the world, if reformation is ever wrought
by excess of whipping.
Luther's memory may have been. charged with
these unmerciful beatings, so as to determine him
to avoid a discipline so harsh and unfatherly.
The bare recollection of them was suited to make
him more tender of his own children, a wiser and
better father at the altar of home. Be. that, as it
may, his domestic happiness was unalloyed, .and
his habitation was the abode of peace, comfort,
order and piety. He was as true a husband and
father, as he was a great Reformer.—Thoyer's

NEW YEAR'S EVE OF AN UNHAPPY
DIAN.
(From the German of Jean Paul.)
An old man stood one New Year's Eve at his
window, and gazed with' a lingering look of de
spair, up at the motionless, ever-blooming heavens,
and down on the still, pure white earth; on its
broad bosom none so joyless and sleepless as le.
For his grave stood near him, concealed no longer
by the verdure -of youth, covered only by the
snows of age. Yet he had brought nothing with
him from the whole rich field of life,—nothing
with him, but error, disease and sin, a wasted
body and- desolate heart, .a breast full of, poison;
and an old age full of remorse. To-night the
days of his youth turn themselves about like
ghosts, and carry him back to the bright morning
when his father placed him where the two paths
of life separate. The right hand the sunny path
of virtue, leading to a broad, quiet country full
of light and harvests and angels,—the left leading
down into the mole-hill of vice, a gloomy cavern ,
full of dripping poison, striking snakes and dark
sweltering vapors.
Alas ! the serpents are driving their fangs in
to his breast, and the drops_of poison hang from
his tongue, and he knows that he has reached
that gloomy cavern.
In his madness and inexpressible horror he
cried to Heaven : "Give me back my youth !"
"'Oh my father, place me again at the starting
point, that I may make another choice !"
But his father and his Youth had long since
passed away. He saw jack-o-lanterns dance on
the marshes and go out on the grave-yard, and he
said : " These are my foolish days." He saw a
star shoot from the heavens, glitter in its fall and
dissolve on the earth : " Such have I been," said
his bleeding heart, and the serpent fangs of remorse
gnawed deeper into his wounds. ,
In the midst of his struggle the music for the
new year rang out from the tower like the chime
of distant bells. He was more gently moved.
Ifis eye wandered around the horizon, and over
the wide landscape, and he thought of the friends
of his youth, who now, happier and better than
he, were teachers of mankind, fathers of happy
children and themselves blessed men, and be said
"'I too might have slept this New Year's night
with dry eyes, had I but wished it. Ah, dear
departed father and mother, I might have been
happy, had 1 but regarded your New Year wishes
and instructions."
In feverish remembrance of his youthful days it
seemed to him that a mask assumed his lineaments,
and in mockery displayed his once blooming form,
the-form of his youthful days, vividly before
He could look upon it no longer. - He covered
his eyes. A thousand hot tears streamed', hissing
into the snow. Then he sighed more softly, de
spairing and senseless : " Oh, youth, come again,
only come :lain I"
And it came again. For it was .only st,..fearful
dream of the New Year's night. He was yet a
young man, but his sins were no dream; yet he
thanked God that, still young,
he could turn from
the polluting paths cf sin, and follow the, sunny
way that leads to the pure land of Harvests.
Turn with him, - young reader, if thou standest
in the path of sin., This terrible dream will
hereafter become thy judge; but if then will once
penitently cry : "Come again, beautiful youth,"
it will come again
INTERCOURSE AT THE TABLE
To meet at the breakfast-table father, mother,
children, all well, ought to be a happiness to any
heart; it should be a source of humble gratitude,
and should wake up the warmest feelings of our na
ture. Shame upon the contemptible and low-bred
cur, whether parent or child, that can ever come
to the breakfast-table, where the family have met
in health, only to frown, and whine, and growl,
and fret! It is prima fade evidence of a mean,
and grovelling, and selfish, and degraded nature,
whencesoever the churl way have sprung. Nor
is it less reprehensible to make such exhibitions at
the table; for befure the morning comes, some of the
little circle may be stricken with some deadly dis
ease, to gather around that table not again forever.
Children in good health, if left to themselves
at the table; become, after a few mouthfuls, gar
rulous and noisy, but if within at all reasonable Or
bearable bounds it is better to let them alone; they
eat less, because they do not eat so rapidly as if
compelled to keep silent, while the very exhilara
tion of spirits quickens the circulation of the vital
fluids, and energizes digestion and assimilation.
The extremes of society curiously meet in this re
gard. The tables of the rich and nobles of Eng
land are models of mirth, wit and bonbommie; it
takes hours to get through a repast, and they live
long. If any body will look in upon the negroes
of a well-to-do family in Kentucky while at their
meals, they cannot but be impressed with the per
fect abandon of jabber, cachinnation and mirth;
it seems as if they could talk all day, and they live
long. It follows, then that at the family table all
should meet, and do it habitually, to make a com
mon interchange of high-bred courtesies, of warm
affections, of cheering mirthfulness and that gene
rosity of nature which lifts us above the brutes
which perish, promotive as these things are ofkod
digestion, high health, and long. life.

THE HARMONY 01 LIFE
The life of a family haS bear beautifully corn-
pared by some one to a full orchestra, each mem
ber of which performs a separate part. The bass
instruments, calm and deliberate, like the.grand
parents, keep...the time and remind the rest of
their duties. The little warbling flutes, like a
nest-full of children, breathe to the sun their
ceaseless songs of unconscious joy. The violins
and the tenors,fathers and mothers in thefamily,
sing also,—hut they know what life is, and know
the reason of their joyfulness or their sadness.
The sighs of the horns and hautboys resemble the
poetic aspirations of youthful hearts•in love with
an ideal—hearts that have as yet tasted none of
the prosaic, disenchanting realities of life.
Let every one perform his' own part in the
right time, and we shall have a perfect whole—
solemn or gay, graceful or majestic, a triumphal
march or' a symphony in do—according as the
great Master above has written the music. But
if the parts - clash, if the bass, departing'from its
appropriate gravity and dignity, becomes frivolous
or trifling,—if the tenors, instead of being con
sistent cud gentle, become careless Or harsh—if
the violins take the part of the horns, and the
trombones that of the hautboys—then the harmo
ny is destroyed, and the spirit lost. Instead of a
soft and:melodious symphony, whose sweetness
charms- even in sadness, we have a nameless,
jarring noise, full of ungoverned movements and
aimless sounds.

BRAIN DIFFICULTIES.
ALARMING INCREASE IN MODERN TIMES.
It is thR Opinion of many eminent,physiciaes that
the present , century has witnessed a very large in
crease of brain disorders,. and that this increase has
taken - place in an accelerated ratio as , the -strain
upon the commercial and public life of the people
becoMe . greater, The - intense , competition
which at present exists among all the liberal pro
fessions, the• - excitement 'accompanying the large
monOtary transactions; lert distiogn the - pre
sent .day, the gambling. nature of many of its.
operations and- the extreme tension to which all
classes of ;he community are subjected in' the .un
ceasing struggle for position.and. even -life; has re=
suited in a cerebral excitement under which the
finely organized brain but too often gives way.
Dr. Brigham of Boston, in the United States,
gives a most deplorable account of the increase : of
the cerebral disorders in his own. country, in which
he asserts that insanity and other brain diseases' are
three times as prevalent as in England. This state
ment would seem to confirm the notion that go-a,
headisin—if we may be allowed the term—is strain
ing the mental fabric to its breaking point: And
ire must remember that the mischief must not be
gauged merely by the number of those.who fall by
the wayside; there must be an enormous amount
of latent mental exhaustion going on,'which medi
cine takes no count of. It is a matter of general
observation that the children of men of intellectual
eminence often possesifeeble,ifnot diseased brains, .
for the simple reason that the parents have - unduly ,
exercised that organ. What applies to individuals,
in a certain modified degree applies to -the race.
A .generation that overtasks its brains is but too
likely to be succeeded by a second still, more en
feebled in its. mental organization, and this exhaus
tive process must go : on increasing, if the social
causes -produein g' it continue-in operation.
- We-have some means of measuring the magni
tude of the evil where absolute lunacy is concerned,
inasmuch as we possess official returns to deal.with,
which gauge its rate °of increase or decrease 'with
pretty tolerable accuracy; but we . have no such
means of ascertaining the nature of the . in crease of
those no - less grave disorders of the brain which do
not bring the patient under the cognizance of the
law. If we could take count of the number of able
men who, at the very height of their efficiency and
in the very plenitude of their power, are struck
with insidious cerebral disease, such as softening
of the brain, and dropt out of life as gradhally.and
as noiselessly as the leaf slowly tinges, withers, and
then flutters to the ground; if medicine had any
system of .statistics which could preSent us with - a

INTERVIEW BETWEEN GARIBALDI AND
VICTOR EMANUEL.
Not often comes an incident of so much interest
to record, as the interview of Garibaldi and 'Vic
tor Emanuel, on the 25th ult., between Teano
and Speranzano. The chieftain bad taken his
quarters at a small inn, and ordering his column
forward, sent Count Trecei on to greet the . king,
whom he \ wet, rapidly advancing, preceded by
Cialdini,'and at the head of 30,000 men. Count
Trecei galloped buck breathless, and Garibaldi
taking horse . with his staff, soon met the head of
the Piedniontese column. It opened, presented
arms, and. Cialdini ran forward, Garibaldi leaping
from his horse and embracing him. The king,
advancing at the head of his proper division, saw
the red shirts, and distinguishing their leader, put
spurs to his horse, all the officers, on either staff;
crying, "Long live Victor Emanuel!" Then
the soldier, who had so gracefully placed au
empire in the monarch's hand, declining for.him
self everything except the gratitude of thcmillions
whom he had saved; baring his head, could only
say: "King of Italy l"—his voice husky with the
swelling of his heart. The king, with like feeling
replied: " Thank'you!" and grasped the 'hero's
baud. Thus they stood, looking at each otherin
the fellowship of noble minds, and said not another
word. Still, hand in han, *they followed the
troops, and as
,their respective Suites mingled in
the rear, began to talk on the great events which
the hour had crowned.'
The circumstance is full-of individual character
and of the spirit of the age. Here is a legitimate
monarch taking charge of liberty front the hand
of a patriot. So great a matter so simply ended
does not elsewhere . grace the page of history.
Great-hearted and disinterested, the uncaleulating
soldier of Providence had made himself a name
among the noblest, delivering a nation from bond
age by the force of his single soul.. Owing no
thing to the ordinary arts of diplomacy, or the
accepted, tactics of. the field, 'he had conducted a
campaign, the like of which was never known.
With sometimes flashes of rash humor, without
which he would not have been Garibaldi, he had
brought his prize thus far, and now, the act virtu
ally done bet'ore, with such informal, formality, he
greets .the king, and Makes-his assignment, think
ing still of nothing so little as of himself.
Garibaldi rhistory will take care of the name.
Italy's children will hear it. Freedom's heart
will cherish it. Truth, fSith, and loyalty will set
it in their songs. Patriotism, will •.engrave it on
monuments. Religion will engraft it upon Sacred
places; it.shall .be remembered in the peasant's
prayer, and where they hear Te .beum under
arches. A. great name, thatnmeanness never tar
nished, dishonesty never touched, and to which
fear-and selfishness were unknown. .
RELIGION AMONG ENGLISH STATES-
. Many Christians deplore the degeneracy of piety
in our age, abd 'think it - has lost the depth and
power exhibited in better days of the church. But
it is quiteeertain that religion never -before exer
cised so much influence over social life, or com
manded to such an extent the attention of the
world. The daily press is constrained to report the
proceedings of religious meetings ) and men high
in rank and influence are eager to participate in
such meetings. An Ebglish correspondent of the
Boston-Recorder gives an interesting statement
cerning leadingstatesmen in England:
. Whether it is to-be ittributed to the "revival"
spirit that prevails amongst us, I cannot -say, but
it is a . delightful and encouraging fact that a mani
festly improved feeling; in regard to matters ef reli
gion has taken possession of the minds of some of
our chief political and other public men. It was a
very great novelty at one time of the day with us, to
find a judge, a leading member of the bar, a minis
ter of State or even a popular representative, who
was prepared to take a prominent, or, indeed, any
part in a religious meeting; and the very few that
were not wholly deterred from so doing, used to be
mocked at as "old women," or spoken of as " dis
'gracefully unprofessional." But, as I have said, a
wholesome change, has been silently wrought, and
day after day the secular journals report devout
speeches, ringing with a true Gospel sound, from
the lord Chancellor of England, the Chancellor of
t'he Exchequer, the lord Mayor of London, the City
Chanberlain, a Vice-Chancellor, the Attorney-Gen
eral, the common Sergeant, the popular member, of
the largest constituency in the land, and a host• of
other representatives of the people. Only within
the last week we have had Mr. Gladstone, the Chan
cellor of the Exchequer who, if he lives, will be
the Chief Minister of the Crewe before long, ad
dressincr one of the most remarkable meetings' ever
held in the Senate-house of Cainbridge University,
composed of the members of the various Colleges,
and the leading inhabitants of the town and nmgh
bourhood, on the Christian duty of establishing a
vigorous missionary effort in Central* Africa; the
lord Mayor of the metropolis-opening the doors'
of the Mansion House to the Evangelical Alliance,
when the noble hall, in which there has been many
a drunken and profane display, resounded with the
words of the hymn, •
Great is the joy when Christians meet,"
and some cordial brotherly apeechea—and the City
Chamberfain lecturing on the revivals in Ireland,
in the midst of which devout scenes he has been
spending his holiday.

THE SINGER SEWING MACHINES.
The marked, and ever extending, popularity of
SINGFR'S SEWING MACHINES, both in America
and Europe, is such as best to establish their superiority
over all others in the market. I Sewing machines (so
called) may be bought, it is true, fora smaller amount
of dollars, but it is mistaken economy to invest anything
in a'worthless. or unreliable article, and those who do
so must abide the consequence!
SINGER'S NEW FAMILY MACHINES.
In order to place THE BEST FAMILY MACHINES
IN THE WORLD within the reach of all, we have re
duced our Letter A, or Transverse Shuttle Machines,
beautifully ornamented, to $5O.
Singer's No. 1, and 2, Standard Shuttle Machines,
both of very general application and capacity, and
n. the_family soul „the
rei uced,..reSpeetavely, from $135 to $9O and $lOO.
Singer's NO. 3 Standard Shuttle 51achine, for Carriage
Makers and heavy leather work. Price complete, $125.
Also, to. complete the list, an ENTIRELY NEW ARTICL E,
unequalled for manufacturing purposes, noiseless, rapid,
and capable of every kind of work! Price (including
iron stand and drawers,) $llO, cheaper at that, in view
of its value, than the machines of any, other maker, as a
gift.
All of Singer's Machines make the interlock stitch
with two threads, which is the best stitch known.
Every person desiring to procure full and reliable in
formation about Sewing Machines,- their sizes, prices,
working capacities, and the best methods of purchasing,
can obtain it by sending for a copy of 1. M. Singer &
Co.'s Gazette, which is a beautiful pictorial paper en
tirely devoted to the subject. It will be supplied gratis.

A WONDERFUL CURE OF' ASTHMA ASTHMA
11. BY JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT. This unrivalled
remedy for Pulmonary Diseases is equally successful in
ail countries and climates in subduing diseases.
The Rev. Eugenia Kincaid, a Missionary in Burmah,
writes:—
It is rare that we use any medicine except , your pre
parations. About three months since, a Burman female
of rand, who called on us, as we learned from her bus
band,had suffered for EIGHT, YEARS 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 quitc 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 save her about one-third of
a bottle of your EXPECTORANT. One week after, her
husband came for mOre,'and informed us that, for the
first time in eight years she had Slept sweetly. In one
month and a half she was entirely restored, and has
increased nearly one-fifth in weight.
Our sister, you recollect, took your ALTERATIVE for a
long standing Swelling on her neck. It has perfectly
cured her. Yours,'Ssc.,

HAVE YOU ASTHMA OR PHTHISIS? Then use
JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT, which will overcome the
spasmodic contraction of the wind tubes, and cause
them to eject the mucus or matter which clogs them
up, and by an easy and free expectoration, remove all
difficulty of breathing.
HAVE YOU WHOOPING , COUGH? Then use
JAYNE'SEXPECTORANT-r-tlie; best remedy - in, thp
world, as it shortens the diseale more than one-half,
and carries the patient safely through it.'
HAVE YOU CROUP, OR 'REVERT Then use
JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT freely, according to di
rections, and you will cure the disease in a few min
utes. And finally,
Have you BRONCHITIS, CONSUMPTION, CHRO

eases which cannot be equalled, as the evidence of thou

not had an attack since. I have also given the same

always-found it to be of great advantage in mitigating
the disease, and finally effectinga cure.

Da. D. JAYNE—Dear Sir: It affords me a great plea
sure to add my feeble testimony in favor of your invalu
able medicines. Some eight years ago, I had a very
severe attack of Acute Bronchitis, and I was considered
by inteligent physicians a confirmed consumptive. By
the very free use of your tarccroaArrr I recovered. In
using it, I surpassed the directions, as I took it in nau
seating doses for several weeks. Since that time I have
made great use of it, and of your ALTERATIVE AND CAR
MINATIVE BALSAM, in my family, and prescribed it to
others with the very best results.
Respectfully yours,

So rapid was the progress of the games, 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
befided 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 fire. •
Respectfully, yours,
THEO. H. PETERS At CO.
The above Safe can be seen at our store, where the
public are invited to call and examine it.
