[The poem below Is from the pen of that beautiful child
of genius, Cutotm Euzadstu Saeah Koetos, the grand
daughter of Sheridan. It is exceedingly touching, and when
repeated by musical lips, charmingly effective. Blue eyes
and black will thank us for re-producing it, if for nothing
else than to pot it away among remembered papers:]
A soldier of the legion, lay dying in Algiers:
There was lack of woman’s nursing, there was dearth of
woman’s tears;
But a comrade stood beside him, while his life’s blood ebb’d
away.
And bent with pitying glances, to hear what be might say
This dying soldier faltered, os he took that comrade’s hand
And he said, “I never more shail see my owp. mv native
land; '
Take a message and a token to some distant friend of mine—
For I was born at Bingen— at Bingen on the Uhine.
Toll ray brothers and companions, when they meet and
crowd around,
To hear my mournful story, in tho pleasant vineyard
ground.
That wo fought the battle bravely, and when tho day was
done,
Full many a corpse lay ghastly palo, beneath the setting
eun; -v ‘ t
And, midst the dead and dying, were some grown old in
The death-wound on. their gallant breasts, the laat of many
scars.
And tome were young-and suddenly beheld life’s noon
decline—
And one hbl come from Blngon-feir TJlngep on the Rhine.
Tell my mother that her other sons shall comfort her old
.“ge.
And I was still a truant bird that thought his homo a cage;
For my father wa*a soldier, and even as a child
My heart leaped forth to hear him tell of struggles fierce
and wild,
And when he died, and left ns to divide his scanty board,
I lot them take what o’er they would—but kept ray lather's
sword; , •
And with boyish love X hung it, where the brigh light used
to shine.
On ’the cottage wall at Bingen—calm Bingen on the Rhine.
Tell my sisters not to weep for me, and sob with drooping
head, 6
Whe.i the troops are marching home again, with gay and
gallant tread; '
But to look upon them proudly, with a calm and S teudlart ,
eye,
For her brother was a soldier, too, and not afraid to dlo:
A 1.4 ifa comrade seek her love, X ask her in my name.
To listen to him kindly, without !egret or shame;
And to hang the old sword in its place (my lather's sword
and mine).
For the honor ol old Blngen-jjear Bingen op the Rhine.
Thete’s another— not a sl.ter-in the happy day. gone by,
You d have known herby the merriment that sparkled in
her eye,
Too Innocent for coquetry—too fond Ibrjdle scorning,
Oh! friend, I fear,om lightest heart bakes sometimes
iictttjwt mourning;
Tell hertfie last night of my life (for era. the sun be risen,
My body will be ont of pain, my soul be out of prison.)
I dreamed I stood with her and saw the yellow sunlight
’ shine ' . >
On the vine-clad hills of Bingen—lair Bingen on the Klilne.
I saw the blue Rhino sweep along, I heard or seemed to
hear
Th. Gonnan songs we used to sing Jo chorus sweet and

And down the pleasant river—and np the pleasant hill.

THE DEAD ARM.
“ Do you Bee that arm ?”
Tiio convict, wasted by a dense disease, raised
himself to a sitting position in the bed, with
much labor, and raising bis withered right arm
with the other, clutched it las if he would ring
it front its sockets as a traitorous member of bis
body.
“ That arm did It,” and he glared revengeful
ly upon it, and shook it fiercely.
**Did what?” ..■>
“ Did murder J Put me here to lire a buried
me for ten long years. Oh! bow long: they
have been. I have counted them hour after
hour in my celh How long: can 1 lire l at the
most?” 1
“ Three hours-—perhaps four.” ■ j
“ Too long to live, but sufficient time ip which
o tell my story. If you believe it, it will be
morotban judge or jury havedone. Would you
aeceive whon on your death &d ?”
‘»My marriage to the girl I had long loved,
and who loved mo with a love exceeding my
m °J!i “. Dga ! n ® hopes, is the point, so far as re
prds the nice applicability of the past events
to the present certainties, at which my narra
tive commences. Dating from the day of that
marriage, there begins a succession of misfor
tunes, that insignificant at their birth, were
gradually by extraneous con
tingencies until they culminated in an act foul
and terrible, if meditated or intended, that mode
a branded felon.
, *' wsf f nnd 1 “ever quairellcd. We loved
[ and revered each other too much to trespass or
trample upon what the other considered sacred.
To be sure, in mere levity and exaltation of
spirits we performed acts that, to persons un
acquainted with as and onr circumstances, might
seem seasoned with earnestness.To such mis
understandings, by a third person, may be at
tributed the origin of reports that we, my wife
and I lived an unhappy life-a life of turmbil
—of blows. Many around ns held to suoh au
opinion, but from rocre ignorance of the nature
of our lives.
“ But I, descending rapidly to the grave, do
declare that wo never, by word or deed, tran
scended the bounds of our great love for each
other; or transgressed those laws that sbonld
preserve the person of the wife from blow er
contumely. If it were possible to exilt without
jarring discord to turn tbosweeteat sympathies
into bitter hatred, ours was that existence.—
ret it availed me not in the dark day that came
upon my household; but rather offered opportu
nities by which to strengthen an apparent guil
tiness* S ' * • I
“ Jcssp,” I said to niy wife, one evening, “ do
you stand on one side of the room while ! take
a position on the other. Give me a ball of yam
froin the basket, and then whosoever is hit with
the ball the greatest, number of times, shall
make a present to the other. A nice present
of course.” f ’
“If I lose, my present shall be a dressing
gown, said Jessie, “ but you know you’ll have
to pay for it.”
" Y'Vi rf ust as acceptable,” I answered.
But if I lose, you have that ring with tb6
emerald and pearls.” ■
Then the soft bail of yarn flew quickly from
hand to.haw), we all the time laughing and
talking with great glee. A kbock at the door
and amacqnaiptance entered, finding bur faces
all flushed with the excitement of ;the contest,
and each uncertain who was the vanquished—
I declared that she won the ring, and promised
to put It upon her finger the next day; which
day to her alive, never came. < . ,
About two o’clock that night, liras awakened
to consciousness by one of those inexplicable
preternatural premonitions of near danger,
which are often encountered, but generally ini
skeptical spirit. ■ .
My mind was clear to reason— not having Hs
delicate powers blunted by deep. Scartely
were my eyes unclosed before I came cognizant
\ he Pwsonco of a cold, clathmy nature, by
its loathsome contact with my face, and by Us
u P° n .™y bosom, whereby it nearly
stilled the beating of my heart. Naturally.!
; J afc the ««owledge of the abs
ence of this burden,, combined with utter dark- 1
ness, creator of fierce fear, completely unnerved
me. and my body shook like at£aapin leaf.
The quiet condition of this body, which ap
pertained not to myself, on my wife—its myste
nous situation—and above all—the moist, ohil
•y contact with my face, deprived me for an in
of 8 «lf-PPMession. The clattering of a
neTAf 0 th t nnV ,b f bhDg of a moose ’ seemed like a
peal of thunder to my ears; the overstrained
eye saw or seemed to see, ghosily shapes pen
dent from the cbandalter or bedpost.

Of course I was much elated at the discovery,

Mek: In my relief, consequent upon what 1
considered a correct explanation of my fright,
the weight upon my chest had been forgotten;
now, the change of my position recalled it very
Unpleasantly and inopportunely, even before I
had touched my wife.

Knowledge that my oppressor bad not been ex

absolutely mystery and fanatic horror again
swayed the sceptre.
Tbbre was, then, a being or thing in tho room

faulty. The result was that I lost all control
