O bright and single moment, when The clouds above tia part, au l men Behold aome golden goal on high Chine granpablo within tho farthest sky: Onward and upward t Then they oloaa On the doll laggard's eye, aud lar advance, And bid him doze; Oar ohanoe we had, an I lost it; lint others hare their chauoe 1 It may be, in some doubtful fight, Courage to see and choose tbe right; Or, leading some assault past hope, To tread with even step the gan-crown'd lope; . Or 'gainst some giant (alcehooi's head Before the whole world to stand forth, aloue, And strike it dead; Or, for some wrong wrought on ns, By pardon to atone. And e'en in England's later years Of unstrung nerves and foolish feara, While hoarse-luug'd prophets trade in woe, And grumblers echo with It must be so, And every grinning gossip'B glass Terks np, for spots, not light, the sun to view, O'er that mean mass Some few have dared to tower. And greatly hope and do. And often so It is with nation?: As when one fair land Saw, North and South, her bright-armed myriads stand, Saw herself rent in twain by matriuidal Laud: Though both were gallant, though High deeds on either side were wrought, Yet one for self and one for mankind fought. And when war's lurid cloud From the blue skies had passed, The golden eye of life Prom heaven shone bold and free On white-robed Victory; And the Right won at last. But she, the motherland, that erst Those swarms in her full hive had nursed, Watoh'd, sneering, the enormon3 light, Or wished the drones suooess, with blinded spite, Or hailed with jealous pettlne3s Each bloody field that drank her rivals' strength, And lett them less, Till, in the cause that triumph'd She acquiesced at length. So those who wrote, and those who spoke: Bat underneath that servile yoke The dnmb, deep-lwatiug, genuine heart Of England would no crouuh, but smiled apart, Knowing the Right at last must be; Nor waver'd in her faith while the long march Swept towards the sea; Nor when the whole world's martyr, The headstone of your arch, Fell, for his work below was done; England has no nobler son I , Now, by his blood, and by his name, He oalls you to be worthy of your tame: Another (rial-hour is now; Now", o'er the main she looks with eager glanoe A Dd bended brow: Oar chanae we had, and lost it ! Bnt you have yet your chance 1 O men who won I O other larger England, saved and free; Forget the errors past, pa3t jealousy t With your true blood our true blood beats across the sea. Let what is done, be done; The two great hearts in one unite; Revenge onr blindness by your clearer sight, Victors in freedom's fight, Another conflict see. An upward-flashing path To win a new renown, Crown'd with the greater crown Uf magnanimity 1 A Female Conspiracy. At the present moment, when the subjects of women's clubs and the higher education of girls are attracting considerable attention, a etrange little book which is now before us, and which treats of both those subjects, seems worthy of notice. The book was purchased some little time ago at a sale by a dealer, who imagined it was some religious work in an unknown tongue, probably emanating from a ' missionary press in Africa, or one of the island s of the Polynesian Archipelago. Here la its title, which certainly appears to bear out that supposition: "Ebpob es lyo utlub, nmgjoml nyflobjof le vyjgy sonutof vobo utemo upnjffjrto," eto. Then follows a motto, "Vonon ubo flbemoofl," Ofpb. 3, II, and underneath is the Imprint, "London, 1835." The volume hap pened to fall into the hands of an enthusiastic philologist, who at first began to study it joy fully, but soon pereeived to his extreme dis appointment that it was merely an English book printed In cypher. Curiosity led him to decipher the title, which turned out to be "Order of the Altar. Ancient Mysteries to which Females were Alone Admissible. Be ing Part the First of the Secrets Preserved in the Association of Maiden Unity and At tachment." Beyond this he did not care to go, but we have thought it worth our while to pay the book a little more attention, and we now proceed to make kno wa the result of our investigations. The book is divided into two parts, the first containing the laws of the "Asaoaiation of Maiden Unity and Attachment," the second being devoted to an account of the "Mysteries of Vesta, Ceres, and Minerva." From the introduction we learn that "the ultimate ob ject at which this association aspires is to im part a tone to society by securing to the female sex the asoendancy in domestlo life to which they are entitled by nature and the laws of civilized sooiety, and to Improve, through their influence, not only the manners, but the moral and religious character of both sexes." In order to attain to this end the members of the association are to band together against 'the passions and policy of the other sex." They will then add to the moral Influence they derive from "the maiden purity of their lives, the decorum of their manners, and the order of their religion," a formidable "capability to defeat the attempts of secret and masonio so cieties against revelation, by possessing their private signs ana xnysuo Knowledge." The society consists of a superior called her High ness, and three orders the first styled that of the Angel, the eeoonu mat of tbe Hand, the third that of the Altar. With respect to mnmberahin "none but maidens are admis sible. . No maiden who is of low birth Mvaarvll habits can be admitted. , . . No maiden wh has not . . reoetved ho sacrament according to the rites of the re tnrmaA churches is admissible." Great stress is laid in the rules on the seoret character in whlon tue writings or me society are to be transcribed. There are to be two gets of hieroglyphios, the one to be taught to all the members, the other to be reserved for the use of the higher orders only, All books issued by the society are- to le printed in eypher, and they are to be Jalon-ty gmrtxil by the members to whom thy twloog tu a sealed paoket tharked "My dying reqnest is that this paoket may be delivered unopeo -A to All this secrecy naturally gives rise to the idea that something very wondei'ul will b found in the ohapters which follow the rules, and which profess to Initiate thir readers Into the "mysteries of Ceres and Miuerva." lilt the promise which they rem to hoi 1 out is not fulfilled. There is nothing particularly new or interesting in the information that "the elevation of Joseph to the highest dignity in ypt rondered him absolute in that countr;" or the statement that "the doctrine ol a future state of rewards anl punishments was taught in the mysteries of Ceres and Baoi'hnt." Kor dos the poet'y which here acd there diverxiflui the txt show any grat pijjnn of inspiration. As an exerolse for Pttvlent.s of cryptography we give a specimen of these elTusions: 1 v'en l'o Cc-ddosf rrontlilnsf im ynlijro Yonco busy cblrado'.i ovnii boll hb (j'il: Ve fooq I'oho yvtnntf, iopJop l'.tf o v lro: F'o fpt-ko; uup beaap jjn tileeop olomat lujjhl. The book is a mjstery for which It is dilli cult to account. Ii is too long for a squib, for it contains about a couple of hundred pages. Its printing must, therefore, have ccst more money ibrtu a mere hoaxer would care to throw away. Is it possible that tue association of which It speaks is flourishing among ns f Or is the whole book the mere embodiment of the ravings of some lunatic, whose prevailing delusion ii the idea that a number of women could keep a secret ? 1'ull Mall (Jazfltf. rorelttn Item. It must be consoling to French journal ists to fiml that if they are absolutely forbid den to excite "hatred and contempt" against that impersonal thing called "the Govern ment," they are free to turn ministers aud agents of the Government into ridioule, and, above all, to treat with utter scorn the Gov ernment's official organ. Since the sale of Le Gaulois has been forbidden in publie places, M. llouher has been systematically attacked In that journal, not on political grounds, but on the convenient supposition that he is a can didate for one of the vacant chairs at the Aca demy, and that he has coaimittel inob3oare places a number of literary crimes, such as epigrams, sonnets, aud even tragedies, which, under the circumstances, J.e Uaulois feels it its duty to bring to light. If Le (Jaulois were not already prohibit I at the kiosks and rail way stations, M. Rouher might prohibit it; but having already done his worst in that respect, he cannot pnnisu the journal before the tribunals for representing him as the author of a quantity of very abaurd pootry. As for the director of Le Journal I jjickl, the sins charged against him do not Beem to be ima ginary ones at all. Whcu the Government restricts the publication of a particular kind of news to one journal, It might, at least, insist upon that journal being piiated with something like regularity. The Pall Mull Gazette stye: If the Ame rican people ever studied historical parallels, they would perceive something almost comio in the attitude they assume towards England with reference to her concession of belligerent rights to the South, and their own eagerness to uphold the standard of rebellion wherever it happens to be unfurled. The Poles, the Hungarians, the Sepoys, all have evoked the deep sympathies of the 'Americans in their turn. If a man declares himself a "rebel," he has at once established aa indisputable claim to American friendship. Directly the Cretan insurrection broke out the Americans sent private supplk-s oi stores and money to Crete. Now the insurgents iu Cuba are patted on the back. In tuis case the applause is perhaps not altogether suggested by disin terested motives. But before the rebellion can be said to have gained a firm footing, before the insurgents have even attempted to construct a government, or have oooupjed an important town, the House of Representa tives at Washington passes "a resolution of sympathy" with them. The Presi dent is at the same time requested to recognize the independence of Cuba at the earliest possible moment. We are quite aware that this resolution has no binding power, but it is a deliberate expression of tha opinion and feeling of one branch of the Legis lature. Our own House of Commons never went so far throughout the war between North and South. The Americans say to the world, "We shall encourage and support re bellion against established powers wherever we find it, and simply because it is rebellion; but we nevtr will forgive people who sympa thized with the rebellion we lately had among ourselves." iuey sti up a standard or con duct of their own, but deny auy freedom whatever, even freedom of opinion, to others. ma ii occur to any member of Congress that the groundlessness of American animosity towards England on the score of the late Rebellion is proved by the exauiDle whioh America herself is always setting to tue world? But the Spanish people are not likely to complain iu a troublesome manner, and that makes all the difference. Some new and interesting revelatlonB. from Italian official sources, of the diplomatio action of Italy and Austria previous to tke war of IBM are contained in two articles by Signor Bonghl in the A'uoca Antoloyia of Florenoe. The author says that the only European sovereign to whom the secret alli ance concluded between Prussia and Italy on the fcth of April, 18iio', was communloated was the Emperor Napoleon; the Emperor of Russia knew nothing about it. ' 'Napoleon III," m. ttoncni adds, "uaa always a lmitted that it was a necessity for Italy to aooept any com bination mat oouid enable her to acquire Venetia. Though he orginally advised Italy to enter into a Prussian alliance as a mean of inclining Anbtria to our views aud his own, he did not dissuade us from it when the alliance became the means of making war against Austria." When the news of tbe alliance became known at Vienna, the Gov ernment there attempted to bring over Italy and Prance to its side by an arrangement about Venetia. "On the 4th of May Austria for mally ottered to give up Venetia to Napoleon, to be ceded by the latter to Ktng Victor Ema nuel, but on the condition that France and Italy should remain neutral in a war with Prussia, aud permit Austria to compensate, herselt by conquering Silesia. According to this fin t proposal the conquest of Silesia and the cession of Vem-tla were to take plaoe simultaneously, one being conditional on the other. On its beiuK represented to the Aus trian Government that its flr could not be ooeptedfc the Ministry at Vienna agreed to cede Venetia on the single- condition that Italy should remalu neutral during the war 11... il l. i: n j . uui nica tun luvumea proposal was rejeoted by Italy, the King 'considering that he was bennd by his treaty of alliance with Prussia, and that a war would probably be more advantageous to Italy than a faithless neutrality, even if purchased by the cession of Venetia." . Says the Pall Mall t7o?e: Our Soottish neighbors are troubled with an increase of pauperism, which, with other causes, has rendered neoessary an increase of poor-relief expenditure north of the Tweed, such as we, from the same influences, have mflered to the sotilB Pootland, (!07OO defrayed, in 1869 all tto "VenBes of relieving the poor, but fast yearlflia ;u,h l)rP.hUI ,ef en,d9 In May-it required JC8C3,u.?v ,to mrt1 dar charges; hence, in the course of niuC or ,en years, this item has been swollen bv the aid'. tion of 20(3,000, or by more than 30 percent. Ten years slnoe, 4). tj. per bead on the population would have covered the whole charge for relief and its administration an nually; now the neoessary funds could only be raised by hi, per head. The pressure of this tax, which falls upon the annual value (rental) of real property, has become sharper year by year. The valuation, however, upon which It is made does not appear to have been revised since lSub. In that year the rate per cent, taken for the poor was 5 7s. 7d.; in lSGllt was 5 Ids. lid.; in 1865 it was G 13s., but last year it had actually mounted up to 7 If. 6d. per 100 of rental. This very nearly touches the English rate, but then valuation lists with ns have been reoently screwed np, while in Scotland the figures whioh represented the rateable value twelve or thirteen years ago have been aooepted as sufficient for the purposes of comparison down to the present time. In the year ended with Lady bay, lSG(i, the English expenditure upon poor relief was 0,440,000, while the rateable value of that year was found to be 92,038,000, or 6 19s.; if the Scotch was on all fours with the English estimate it would show that in Scotland the severity of the impost is nearly as great as it is in Eogland, whioh is rather an unexpected result. Tried through the medium of a less exceptional standard of comparison than the Scotch and Eaglish assessments furnish, the practical equality of the pressure in the two kingdoms beoomes apparent. The gross return for the property tax valuation in Sootland for 1805 was 16,254,000; the relief expenditure in 1805-00 was 7'3,000, or 4 8 per cent, on the sohedule A returns; while for Eogland and Wales the respective amounts for the same years were 131,341,000 and 0,440,000, or 4-9 per cent. The Antlqne Casts In the Talc Art School. The New Haven Palladium says: "The collection of casts reoently given to the Street School of the Fine Arts in Yale College has now been open to the publio for three successive Wednesdays. The number of visitors has not been large, but, consider ing the inclemency of the season and the modest way in which . the arrival of these works of art has been an nounced, more persons have been in the hall at the hours of exhibition than we had ex pected to see. "There are but twenty groups in the collec tion (including one comparatively modern piece); but these comprise about eighty dis tinct castings, chosen so as to represent a va riety of interesting monuments of art, statues, torsos and baa reliefs, high reliefs, architec tural and sepulchral decorations. These are of different periods as well as of diiferent sorts. Thus tbe student of art or the student of history may here find his imagination quickened and his enthusiasm heightened with true representations of Greoian sculp ture, as instructive and important to the classical scholar as are the museums of natu ral history to the students of nature. "In the oentral part of the hall are five large pleoes of statuary the Laoooon, the Sleeping Prisoner of Michael Angelo, the Ilioneus of Munich, the Venus . of Milo, and the Kephisos. In the two corners to the east are two ancient busts Apollo and yE-joula-pins; in those of the west a Kanephora and a torso of Viotory. Around the walls are seve ral series of tablets, comprising sixty-nine separate pieces, and including selections from the Elgin, Towneley, Badrun, and Lyclan marbles ef the British Museum, and some from other sources. The most beautiful cast In the ball is the Venus of Milo, taken from the original in the Museum of the Louvre in Paris. "The Parthenon friezes (twenty-two tablets in group number eight) are a portion of the celebrated spoils sent to England by Lord Elgin, British Ambassador at Constanti nople." r A. Spanibh ISishop Snubbed by a School master. A serious rebuff to the eoelesiastloal party in Spain has just been given by Don Agustia Sarda, head master of the normal school at Navarra. Not doubting his authority would be respected by him, the Bishop of Pamplona wrote him as follows: "Sir: I have been positively informed, and not without pain on my part, that in the les sons of the normal school you do not hesitate to incnloate on the pupils ideas oontrary to the doctrines and dogmas of the Catholio Church, whose dootrines, as the fountain of light and of truth, you could so much avail yourself of, as professor in the exercise of your ministry, as to make use of them for the intellectual and moral improvement of the yonths whose famllies.certainly wish them to become good Christians before beooming emi nently wise. Notwithstanding what has been repeated to me, and the advioes I have received on this point, I cannot bring myself to believe that you are disposed to continue this propaganda, and still less so in a plaoe and under conditions so openly contradiotory. For this reason I limit myself to indicate to you by this communication my most grave feelings of sorrow, hoping that in the reply your attention will dictate you will not hesi tate to give me all the securities whioh in so delicate a matter can tranquillize my prelati oal heart. "Pedro Cirolo, Bishop of Pamplona. "Pamplona, February 9." The Bishop, instead of the assurances he hoped for, received the following curt reply: "Excellent Sir: Not having any other judge, according to existing legislation, than my own conscience, respecting the doutriae which I teach in my school, and your excel lency not having any legal intervention iu publio instruction, I have nothing to answer to your official communication of the 9th Inst. "Aodstin Sarda. "Pamplona, February 11, 1809. "To his Excellency the Bishop of Pamp lona." ' Train deolines an intellectual comparison with John Stuart Mill.
