In the Time of Need Will I Turn to Thee.
I turn to thee in time of need,
And never turn in vain,
I see thy fond and fearless smile,
And hope revives again.
It gives me strength to struggle on,
Whate'er the strife may be ;
And if again my courage fail,
Again I turn to thee.
Thy timid beauty charmed me first ;
I breathed -a lover's vow,
But little thought to find the friend
Whose strength sustains me now ;
I deemed thee made for summer skies;
But in the stormy sea,
Deserted by all former friends,
Dear love, I turn to thee.

[From the Red White and Blue.]
THE TRAITOR'S CHILD.
The energies of the American troops sta
tioned at Fort Washington after their evacu
ation of New York, were fully taxed to repel
the many sorties made by the enemy against
them. It required a constant and careful
watch upon the part of the Commander-in
chief to prevent a surprise, and the more
surely to effect this, a system of observation
was maintained along the road, so that in
formation passed from point to point, was
sure to reach the camp ere the British could
carry out their designs. The majority of
persons living on the line from the city to
Kingsbridge, gladly aided in this plan of
police, and thus rendered essential service to
the cause. One of this number, however, a
Mr. Jenning, at last took umbrage from
some order of Washington or his subordinate,
and, with a reprehensible cunning, he deter
mined to abandon the Americans, and serve
the interests of the foe. So secretly were
these plans concocted and carried out, that
no one outside of his own family suspected
his disaffection.
The British General accepted the offered
services, and pledged himself to pay largely
for them. It was proposed that a number of
his troops should march as far as his neigh
bors, who would, of course, communicate
their movements to Jenning, who in his turn,
instead of passing the warning, was to con
ceal the forces until reinforcements could ar
rive, and a formidable demonstration could
be made against the fort.
" And for this service, in any event, you
shall have a thousand pounds," said the Brit
ish General to the traitor. "Should it event
uate in the entire overthrow of the rebels,
the sum shall be trebled, while other rewards
shall be freely bestowed. You are certain
that you have confided the matter to no one?"
" Not a soul, save those of my own family
know it," Jenning replied.
" Of whom does your family consist ?"
"My wife, who is an invalid, and an only
daughter."
" Row are they affected by your change ?"
"I know not, nor do I care. But of course
they will follow my wishes, which have ever
been law to them. My daughter is the only
one who would think of a difference of opin
ion, and even she would never dare to give it
expression."
" I have heard that the majority of your
American females have imbided a sort of ro
mantic attachment to
,George Washington,
which might lead them to sympathy with
him, but of course you are sure of your child,
and can answer for her."
" With my life!"
" Suppose you allow me to invite her here.
It would be a safe thing, and at the same
time remove her from the suspicion of collu
sion, should you be discovered."
" I cannot part with her, sir ! She has
aided me heretofore and can do so again.—
She is very obedient, so we need not fear
her."
" Enough ! Manage the matter yourself.
lam content ! Now for our plans. To-mor
row at dusk a company of Captain Trevor's
command will be put in motion, and arrive
about midnight at your house. You will con
ceal them and await the others. When they
are all gathered you will guide them to the
attack. The rebels being off their guard will
fall an easy prey 1"
So far as the intentions of the British offi
cer was concerned, the meditated plans were
carried out, a number of picked men were
concealed at the house of Jenning and at a
proper time marched towards their destina
tion. Under cover of the night they had pro
ceeded to the next station on the road, when
their advance was suddenly checked,
A sharp rattle of musket balls which seem
ed to have been designedly fired above their
heads brought them to an immediate halt.—
A second discharge gave them to understand
that their further progress would be danger
ous, Captain Trevor who was in command,
immediately gave orders for a countermarch,
and in less than ten minutes the whole body
were in a retrogade position,
We can hardly venture to describe the feel
ings of chagrin, entertained by the original
plotter of this expedition, when informed by
Trevor of the unsatisfactory result, as. that
officer handed him the gold which had been
promised, he threw it to the ground with a
violent gesture and with m oath, swore that
he would murder the informer, whoever it
might be, that had thus defeated his hopes.
In vain the king's officer strove to calm him :
the darker passions of his nature were arous
ed and would not be exorcised. While he
was thus storming and invoking maledictions
upon the head of the culprit, a fair girl en
tered the apartment. There was a look of In
telligent firmness upon her pale countenance,
as her eyes met those of her father rind quail
ed not,.
" Come hither, Hester l" he cried. " Igo
you know aught of this matter ? Can you
tell me who sent word to Washington, re
specting this expedition ?"
Hester cut an appealing look upon the offi-

BY ARCOLA.
-PERSEVERE.-
cer, who, however, did not interfere between
them.
"Did you hear my question ?" roared
Jenning. " Tell me do you know aught of
this ?"
" I do !" the girl replied, in a low tone.
" I thought so ! Now tell me the person's
name."
" It was I !"
" You! Serpent ! You betray me----------!"
" Father ! hear me. I did send word to
our General that the enemy were to make an
attack upon the fort, but your name was not
mentioned as being a party to the expedition.
No harm can come to yon. I know how ar
duously and long our countrymen had strug
gled against oppression; how nobly they con
tended against superior forces ; how true was
their devotion to the cause in which they
were engaged, and I could not quietly look
and see their destruction attempted. I sent
word of this, but in saving them I did not be
tray you."
" Enough that you have come between me
and my revenge ! This be your reward !"
He drew from his pocket a pistol and de
liberately aimed it at his child. She moved
not, did not even tremble, but Trevor shock
ed beyond measure at the horror of the
meditated deed, sprung towards the wretch,
and raised his arm. The ball grazed her
head and was buried deep in the wainscot.
" Shame on you, man !" cried the officer
with indignation. " Would you have her
blood on your hands? of what are you com
posed? Is she not your child ?"
" No !" cried Hester, with startling empha
sis. "I am not, or at least, shall not be for
the future. I will not own a parent who to
the crime of treason, can add that of murder.
I did expose your villainy and would do it
again. Nay, you may frown, I fear you not.
This last base act has frozen the natural cur
rent of my heart."
Then in a calmer and more feeling tone she
continued
" Father—'tis the last time I shall call you
so—l bid you farewell forever. Your male
diction may be hurled against me, but never
will you again look upon my face. Ere an
other day has passed, Washington shall know
of your treachery. Your only safety is in
flight. In England you may enjoy the fruit
of your baseness, but here you cannot re
main. Farewell, forever I"
She passed from the room, as the tears,
which she could no longer control, coursed
rapidly down her cheeks. She repaired at
once to the bedside of her mother, in whose
soul the last flickerings of life were fast fail
ingr'She knelt beside her, and even as she
prayed, her worn spirit was released from
bondage!
" Alone ! an orphan ! God help me !"
she exclaimed, as she pressed her trembling
lips to those that had so often met her's in
love.
Jenning lingered not long, soon after, he
was on his way to England, where he lived,
as traitors should, in splendid disgrace.—
Hester become the wife of a young Revolu
tionary officer, and lived long enough to give
to her descendants the valuable example of
the Chzistian and the patriot mother.
A Drove of Irish Bulls.
The following may be "backed" against
anything ever produced. It was written half
a century ago by Sir Boyle Roche, a member
of the Irish parliament. The Troubled Times
of Ninety-eight, when a handful of men from
the County of Wexford struck terror into the
hearts of many gallant sons of Mars, as well
as the worthy writer himself. The letter
was addressed to a friend in London, and it
is old enough to be new to nine out of ten
of our readers
" Dly Dear Sir ;-11 - aving now a litte peace
and quietness, I sit down and• inform you of
the dread bustle and confusion we are all in
from those blood-thirsty rebels, most of whom
are, thank God, killed and dispersed. We
are in a pretty mess ; can get nothing to eat,
nor any wine to drink, except whiskey ; and
when we sit down to dinner we are obliged
to keep both hands armed. While I write
this I hold, a sword. in each hand and pistol
in the other.
I concluded from the beginning that this
would be the end of it, and I see I was right ;
for it is not half over yet. At present there
are such goin g s on that everything is at a
stand still, Ishould have answered your let
ter a fortnight ago, but I did not receive it
until this morning. Indeed ; scarce a mail
arrives without being robbed. No longer ago
than yesterday the coach with the mail from
Dublin was robbed near town. The bags
bad been left behind for fear of accident, and
by good luck there was nobody in but two
outside passengers, who had nothing for the
thieves to take. Last Tuesday notice was
given that a gang of rebel was advupping
here under the French standard, but they
had no colors nor any drums except bagpipes.
Immediately every man in the place, in
men women and children, ran out to
meet them. We soon found oar force much
too little ; we were too near to think of re
treating. Death was in every face ; but at it
we went, and began to be all alive again.—
Fortunately the rebels had no guns but pis
tols and pikes, and as we bad plenty of mus
kets and ammunition we put them all to the
sword. Not a soul. of them escaped, except
some that were dnowned in the adjacent bogs ;
and in a very short time nothing was heard
but silence. Their uniforms were all of dif
ferent colors, bat mostly green. After the
action we went to rumage a sort of camp
which they had left behind them. 411 w

of empty bottles of water, and a bundlei of
French commissions filled with Irish names.

A correspondent of the Brother Jonathan,
writing at New Orleans, gives the following
good story :
Going up to St. Louis, last month, I no
ticed, as soon as the boat had got fairly star
ted, a green-looking customer, who was scru
tanizing the bell, as if he had never seen one
before. He soon attracted the attention of
the Captain and a great many of the pas
sengers.
"Keep still and look. at the Yankee," said
the Captain ; "we shall have fine sport pres
ently," and at the same time • walking up to
him, he added:—" Well, sir, what do you
think of the bell 2"
"It is a pooty one. How much did it
cost ?"
"Three hundred and fifty dollars."
" Why, du tell? that would buy a farm up
in our country. How do you go to work to
ring the critter?"
" Why, by pulling the rope, to be sure."
" Does it ring very hard, Cap'n ?"
"Not very ; wouldn't you like to try it ?"
"I don't, know but I would ; how much
would you ask to let a feller ring it a little
while ?"
" Ten dollars."
"Human natur ! you ought to let a feller
ring it as long as he pleased at that price."
The Captain thought to have some fine
sport out of him, and told him to do so. The
Yankee pulled out a ten dollar piece, and
calling on some of the passengers to witness
it, that there might be no backing out on
either side, commenced ringing the bell. It
was fine fun for them all at first, but they
very soon grew tired and annoyed with the
noise, for Jonathan kept at it as if it was
the last work he ever intended to do. The
Captain, as well as the rest, began to be very
much annoyed, for more than once he had
been asked to have it stopped. So he went
up to him and asked him how much longer
he intended to ring that develish bell ?"
" It's a fair bargain, Cappen, that I should
ring it as long as I pleased, and I can prove
it too."
"Nell, if you only stop, you can have your
money back again."
" No, sir-ee," was the reply.
" Well, how much will you aak to stop it ?"
" Well, seein' it is you, Cappen, I don't
know, but if you will give me fifty dollars
and a free ticket to St. Louis, I will let you
off."
The Captain halted for a moment, and told
him to come into the office. After he had
paid him, he asked
`• How long did you intend to ring that
bell ?"
" Well, I reckon I intended to ring it till
you would pay .me pooty well to stop it."
" But suppose I would not have given you
anything to stop it, what then would you have
done ?"
" Well, I reckon I should have rung it
till I had wrung the neck off the tarnal crit
ter."
A young woman in Vermont married a
poor but worthy man, against her father's
wish. He drove them from his house and
closed his heart and door against them. They
moved to the city of Boston ; went to work
and prospered. After many years, the fath
er had occasion to go to Boston. He conclu
ded to go and see his daughter, expecting a
cold reception. His daughter and her hus
band received him most kindly and lovingly.
After staying with them a while he went
back to Vermont. One of his neighbors
hearing where he had been, asked him how
his daughter and husband had treated him.
" I was never treated so before in my life,"
said the weeping and broken-hearted father,
"They have broken my heart, they have kil
led me—l don't feel as though I can live un
der it."
" What did they do to you ?" asked the
neighbor. "Did they abuse you ?"
" They lobed me to death, and killed me
with kindness," said he. "I can never for
give myself for treating so cruelly my own
darling daughter, who loved me so affection
ately. I feel as if I should die, when I think
how I grieved my precious child, when I
spurned her from my door. Heaven bless
them, and forgive any cruelty and injustice
to them."
Who does not see in this an infallible cure
for difficulties between man and man. There
is not a man or child on earth, who would
not feel and say that the daughter, although
deeply wronged and outraged by her angry
father, did right in treating him as she did.
That father was her enemy, but she was not
his. Ile hated her, and she loved him,
SECRET. -f' how do you do Mrs. Briggs ?

"Why, no, really Mrs. Gad—what is it, do
tell ?"
"Oh, I promised not to tell for the world!
No I must never tell on't—l'm afraid it will
get out."
" No I will never open my mouth about it
—never. Irope to die this minute."
"Well, if you will believe, nrs. Fundy
told me last night, that Mrs. Trot told her
that her sister was told by a person who
dreamed it, that Mrs. Trouble's oldest daugh
ter told Mrs. Nichens that her grandmother

Editor and Proprietor.

Cruelty Killed by- Kindness.
From a lecture recently delivered by Bul
wer, we extract a few passages :
" The law that binds the one man to the
one woman," eloquently exclaimed the lec
turer, " is so indelibly written by nature, that
wherever it is violated in a general system,
the human race is found to deteriorate in mind
and form. The ennobling influences of wo
man cease ; the wife is a companion—a hun
dred wives are but a hundred slaves. Nor
is this all; unless man look to woman as a
treasure to be wooed and won—her smile the
charm of his existence—her single heart the
range of his. desires—that which deserves
the name of love cannot exist, it is struck
out of the healthful system of society. Now,
if there be a passion in the human breast
which most tends to lift us out of egotism and
self—which most teaches us to live in another,
—which purifies and warms the whole mortal
being—it is love, as we of the North hold it
and cherish it.
NO. 50.
For even when the fair spring of youth has
passed, and when the active life is employed
in such grave pursuits that the love of his
early years seems to him like a dream of ro
mance, still that love, having once lifted him
out of egotism into sympathy, does but pass
into new forms and development—it has un
locked his heart to charity and benevolence
—it gives a smile to his home ; it rises up in
the eyes of his children—from hie hearth it
circulates insensibly on to the laws that pro
tect the hearth, to the native land which
spreads around it. Thus in the uniform his
tory of the world we discover that wherever
love is created, as it were, and sanctioned by
that equality between the sexes which the
permanent and holy union of one heart with
another . proclaims, there, too, patriotism, lib
erty—the manly and the gentle virtues—also
find their place ; and wherever, on the con
trary, polygamy is practiced, and love disap
pears in gross staiety of the senses, there we
find neither respect for humanity, nor rever
ence for home, nor affection for the natal
soil. And one reason why Greece so con
trasted in all that dignifies our nature, the
effeminate and dissolute character of the
East which it overthrew is, that Greece was
the earliest civilized country in which, on
the borders of those great monarchies, mar
riage was the sacred tie between one man and
one woman—and man was the thoughtful
father of a home; not the wanton lord of a
seraglio."
" Cousin John, how did your wife hurt her
back so? I declare it makes me feel awfully
to see what a great hump she's got a growing
since she earn away from Connecticut."—
With that, cousin John looked at her, and
laded a little, but I could see he didn't feel
right ; and arter a minit he said, sez be,
" Hush, cousin, you must not speak so loud ;
it's true Mary has put on rather too much
bustle, but it's the fashion, you see." I look,
ed round, and, as true as you live, there warn't
a gal in the room that hadn't her back a stick
ing out jest the same way, Such a set of
hump backed critters I never did put my eye
on, and yit they all stood about a smiling and
a talking to the fellows, as if nothing ailed
them, poor things l I never see a set of folks
dressed out so much and so awfully , stuck up
as they were. Some of the gals had feathers
in their hair, and some had flowers or gold
chains twisted among their curls, and I didn't
see one there that wasn't dressed up in her
silks and satins, as crank as could be. As
for the men, I thought I should have haw
hawed right out a larfin to see some of 'em,
There was one chap talking to Miss Beebe,
with his hair parted from the top of his head
down each side of his face, and it hung down
behind all over his coat collar like a young
gal's just before she begins to wear a comb ;
and there was two bunches of hair stuck out
on his upper lip right under his- nose, like a
cat's whiskers when she begiAs to get her
back up. Every time he spoke; the hair kin
der riz up and moved about till it was enough
to make a fellow crawl all over to look at him.
Think, sez I, if it wouldn't be fun to see that
varmint try to eat. If he didn't get his vic
tuals tangled up in that bunch of hair, he
must know how to aim all-fired straight with
his knife and fork.—Sam Slick.
VALUE OF OBSERVATION.—In education it is
the same as in business. Whatever you un,
dertake, let it be a fixed principle with you
to keep on till you have accomplished your
wishes. And here an observation will be of
great assistance. By observation is meant
the paying attention to what is going on
around us—making proper use of our eyes,
There are thonsands of persons who never
see anything—that is, they shut their eyes to
everything but the mere mechanism of life—
the three. meals a day, dressing and undres
sing, But observation will show us a. thous
and facts that will add to our knowledge and
experience. Note well the afferent charac
ters of the people you work with, of those
you meet in your daily occupation, and you
will see the Stri);:ing difference of opinion
which exists in the human race. But in ob
servation, as well as in everything else, there
are extremes. If a man observes everybody's
doings and does not tend to his own business
at all, then observation - is of no value what
ever.
