U'Oh. Erlal fair Erin, green lalo of tho sea,
I -Across the wild waters our hearts turn to theo,
How vain are thine efforts, how hopeless thy trust,
iThe heel of the Urlton still grinds thee in dust;
Tho tyrant still holds thee his fair Island bride,
All pirt with the poison’d chains ftist to his side. .
And thy children must perish, thy babes wait for bread.
While Ids minions are pnm|*er'd—with luxury fed! ’
Ami tho plenty,‘which Nature's Just God on thee pours,.
Ills vassals must bear from thy famine-struck shores:’
Thy patriots must die—the broad ocean's white foam
Rolls between their loved forms and the blessings of home,
With tho murderer, the felon, the outcast of hell,
Tho noblest and bravest of mankind must dwell. .
And Ireland must bear it. bravo Ireland must cower.
While England's proud Lion tramps on its power;
The slHiinrock must still in u puppet's crown glow,
And the hearts of thy children lie bleeding and low;
Oh I would a strong nrm could stretch o'er the wide sen,
With the blessings of liberty garnered for thee, —
Yet u nation's great h«*arl in each throbbing vein fee|s, '
And for tlieonml thy wrongs to Omnipotence kneels.
Thy fathers wore ours, we a brotherhood claim, ’
And plnry, how justly, |n no Irishman's name;
And. though famish'd and fetter’d, and ground In the dust.
In thee, and in thine, how undying our trust,
Thou will vet break thy chains, the day will yet rise
When millions shall wnft n free name to tho skies,
When Erin, fair Erin, shall hnil her new birth. ’
And claim her Just rank 'mid tho nations of earth. ’

It) stories, it will be rc>rend will) great interest:
TUB FIRST AND DINNER.
A TALE OF LIFE. , .
Twelve friends, much''about I ho. some age, and
fixed, by their pursuits, their family connections, nnd
other local into eels, ns permanent inhabitants of the
metropolis, agreed one day when they were drinking
their wine ul the Star and Garter Qt Richmond, to
institute an annual dinner among themselves, under
the following regulations: That they, should dine
tl(bfnblely ; ul cuch others houses on .the first and Inst
lay oflho year; thut the first buttle of wine uncork*
<1 ’at the lirpt dinner, should-be rccorked und pul

nib hq so dined alone, teal it should only one,
ic should then uncork iho first bottle, arid In thoTirst
hiss, drink to the memory of nil who wore gone. j
There was something original and whimsical in 1
io idea, and it was eagerly embraced. 'They were |
II .in the prime of life, closely attached by reciprocal
Headship,.fond of social enjoyments, und looked for.
vard to their future meeting with unalloyed feelings
f pleasure. The only thought, Indeed, that could I
avo darkened (hose anticipations, was ono not like*
f to intrude itself nt this moment, that of the hap.
isa wight who was destined to uncork-the first glass
I his lonely repast.
It was high summer when this frolic compact was
Ucrodinto; und as (heir pleasure yacht skimmed
ong the d irk bosom of the Thames, on their return
1 London, they talked of nothing but their first and
at (busts of ensuing years. Their Imaginations ran
;l with a thousand gay predictions of festive mem*
|»cnt. They wantoned in conjectured of what chan*
is lime would create.
L“ As lor you, George,” exclaimed ono of tlic twelve,

Icht was proceeding swiftly along;- but it was In*
antly slopped.
,Tlio utmost consternation now prevailed. It was
larly dark, but Fortcscuo was known to bo an ox.
llont swimmer, nnd startling as tho aceldonl was
felt curtain ho would regain the,vessel. They
d not see him. They listened. They heard ilie
of his hands and feet. An answer was return*
Iqtffbul in a faint, gnrgjing voice, nnd the exclamation
Oh God 1" struck upon their ours. In on Instant,
ro or three, who woro expert swimmers, plunged
to tho river, nnd swam towards the spht whence
b exclamation hud proceeded. Ono of them was

A decorous sigh or two, a lo\V, becoming cjacula*
on, and an Instructive observation upon tho uncar*
duty of life, made up tho sum of tender posthumous
ottering to tho manes of poor Goprgo Fortesoue,**
> they proceeded to‘ discharge the more important

Several years had elapsed, and pur eleven friends
ipl up their double anniversaries, as they might
l!y enough bo culled, with scarcely nnypbrccptlblo

upon a public aoaffuldfTqr having made one single
stroke ofhla pen in a wrong place. In oilier words,
a bill Of exchange-which passed into lns‘ hands for
£7OO, passed out of it for £1,700.
■ Jt ..would be'injustice to the ten to say, that even
wine, friendship and a merry season, could not dispel
the; gloom'.which pervaded this dinner. It was
agreed before hand, that they should not allude to
the distressing and melancholy theme; and having
thus interdicted Iheonly things which really occupied
all their thoughts, the natural consequence was,.that
silent contemplation took.the;place of,dismal dis
coiiraej nnd they separated long before midnight.
Some fifteen years Jiad now glided away "since the
fate ofßowlund,and the ten remained ; but the stea
ling hand of lime had written sundry changes in
most'legible characters. Raven locks had become
grixzlwf, two or three heads had not as. many locks
'altogether as may bo .reckoned in a. walk of half a
mile talong.the Regrenl’s Canal—one was actually
.covered with a-brown wig, the crowds feet were visi
bio in the corner of the eyo—good old port and warm
mnileria.carrh dilnguinst liock, caret, and red bur*
gundy, and champaignc, slews, hashes, and ragouts,
grow into favor—-crusts were rarely- called.for. to
relish (ho cheese after dinner—conversation, grow
less boisterous, and it lurnpd chicfiy on. politics and
the state of.tho'funds, or the value of landed property
—apologies were made. for comjng in thick shoes
and warm stockings—the doors and windows wero
most carefully provided with list and sand bags—the
fire more in request—and a quiet game of whist filled
tip the hours that were - wont to bo devoted to drink- ;
ing, singing, and riotous merriment. The rubbers,
a cup of coffee, and at homo by 11 o'clock, Was the
usu'il cry, when the fifth or sixth glass had gone
round after the removal of the cloth. At parting,
too, there was a long ceremony in the hull, buttoning
up .great cools, tying on woolen comforters, fixing
silk handkerchiefs over (he mouth and up to the cars,
grasping sturdy walking cancs to support unsteady
feel. . . .

.Their fiftieth' anniversary -came* and tleuth had
indeed been.busy. - * -
: Four Utile old men of withered appearance and
decrepit wall?, with cracked voices and dim, raylcss
eyes, sal down by> the mercy of Heaven, (as they
themselves Ircmnously declared, - ) to .celebrate, for the
fiftieth time, the first day of tho year, to observe tho
frolic compact which, half a century before they had
entered,into ui the Slur and Garter at Richomond.—.
Eight were in their graves !. The fodr that remain,
cd stood upon its confines. Yet lliey.chirped chccri
ly over their glass, though they could scarcely carry
it lo thoir lips, if more than half full; and cracked
their jokes, though ;thcy articulated their words with
difficulty and heard bach other with still greater dif
ficulty. They mumbled, they chattered, they laugh,
ed, if a sort of strange wheezing might bo called a
laugh; and when the wines sent (heir icy blood in
warmer pulses through their veins, they talked of tho
past as if it were.but yesterday that had slipped by
them—and of the future as if it were a ,busy century
that lay bo ore them.
They were just the number for a quiet rubber qf
whist ; and for three successive years (hey sat down
to one. The fourth came, and then their rubber .was
played with an open dummy; a fifth, and whist was
no longer practicable; (wo could play otriy at crib-'
huge, and ertbbuge \yas the game. . But It wWjilllc
more than (ho mockery of ploy. Their palsied hands
could hardly hold, or their fuded sight,
(ho curds, while (heir torpid /acuities made them
doze each deal, ’ * . • .
At length on mo. the Iqsl'dlnnor; and the survivor
of tho twelve, upon.whose head fourscore and ten
winters hud shmyered their snow, nto his solitary
meal.' It so chanced ihat it was In .his house arid at
his table, they had celebrated (lie first. In his cellar
too, had remained for eight and fifty years, tho boltlo
.they had uncorked, rccorkcd, and which he was that
day to uncork again. It stood bcsido hlm; with a
feeble and reluctant grasp, ho'took the frail memo
rial of a youthful; vow, and for a moment memory
was faithful to her office. She threw open her Iqng
vista of buried years; and his heart (ravelled through
them alt. Their Jusly and biUhsomo spring,’ (licit
bright and fervid summer—their ripe and temperate
autumn—thqjr chill but hot too frozen winter. ’ Ho
saw, ns in a mirror, how one by one, tho laughing
companions of the merry hour, at Richmond, had
dropped into eternity. Ho fell all the loneliness.of
his condition,(for he had eschewed marriage, and in
tho veins of no living crcalu/e ran a drop of blood
whoso source, was in lias own;) and as-ho drnlnc'd a
glass which lie filled, «to (ho memory of (hose who
were gono,” tho tears slowly trickled down tho deep
furrows of his aged Dice. '• r
Ho hud thus fulfilled ono part of his vow, and ho
prepared himself to discharge the other, by sitting
the usual number of hours ul his desolate table.—
With a heavy heart fie resigned himself to’llio gloom
of his own thoughts—a lethargic sleep stole over him
Ins head fell upon Ins bosom—confused images
crowded into his mind—ho babbled by, himself— was
silent—ami when his servant entered tho room,
alarmed by a noise which bo hoard, ho found his
master stretched upon the carpet nt the foot of the
easy chair, and out of ho hud slipped in au
npoplclio fit. Ho never spoko again, nor oneb open,
cd his eyes, though tho vilol spark was not still ex.
linqt till tho following day. And (his was tho last
dinner. I
Lawyers on Ivissino.— Tho Providence Journal of
.Monday-contains a report of the trial of John Dona
hue for nn assault with an attempt to kiss one Mary
Gorman, whom ho alleges is his second cousin. The
Journal says that, tl.o evidence gave riso to some
very interesting questions of law,especially to young
men. .
“The counsel for Mrs. Gorman did not contend
that tho usual proposal to kiss a lady was an assault;
but the. parties should, before proceeding to extremi
ties, ascertain beyond any reasonable doubt that tho
lady would not bo unaccommodating, and especially
should forbear from such attempts in tho. presence of
a third party. ..All men, especially young men, would
bo justified in using reasonable diligence ip ascer
taining the disposition of the Indy under such oir*
cumstunceß,.bul ho must bo careful not to press his
suit after it became apparent that his fondness was
not reciprocated. Currcy, counsel for J. Donahue,
did not fully concur with lips view of tho law, but
contended that the transaction was all in good nature,
os ,fur as John was concerned—that Mrs. Gorman
was his second cousin, and there was no intention of
committing on assault on'hls part,
*■ Tho court found John guilty, and lined him 61
and costs.' Tho, fact that Mrs. Gorman was the se
cond cousin pf John yyus not''considered a sufficient
Justification for his persisting in .the prosecution of
his desire. Tho court gave \no opinion as to whul
would have been their decision, if the parlies had
boon first cousins,'or. if the. kiss had been stolon bo
fore the lady had objected,;. Without mooning to
commit ourselves fully'on so.lmpoftantn ’question;
wo would intimate (hq opinion that such astute of
facts would bo ii perfect justification.”
PIRMNEiIS.
Mun should bo firm—-woman 'shOuld bo firm—all
our decisions and doings should show firmness and
reason. What can wo effect by a trifling vibrating
course? Does any one know of a man who became
rich, or lmppy on account of there being no depen
dence tb.be put on-him ? Wo presume not. Firm*
ness of character carries a i*nnn through the world
easily and makes him respected by all, gains for him
a good name, and sheds around him innumerable
blessings. Without it.ho is despised by his friends,
led into a thousand snares by his enemies, enticed
from virtue by tbbso wo least expect, and finally may

A PRETTY LITTLE STORY.
u Cast thy bread Upon the waters, and after many
'days'it will,return to thee;”—(his is a Scripture
. truth, whichi like all lr ( uth has been verified a thou
sand times; .The following -little. ?lory. may serve to
illustrate the Verity of this text. Allow me to promise
that my story is a true one in all particulars. .»„
I Some thirty years since a lad of one of.our jßastorn
Slates about ten years of age, was serit by his employ-
I er to. carry a basket, heavily ladcned with wares, to
a purchaser—whilst staggering under its weight up
. a somewhat steep hill, a gentleman of about thirty
years proffered his assistance, and beguiled the tcdU
nusness ofthe.woy by plea'santnneedoles,good advice,
and kind words. They parted—fifteen years passed
away—thesbniorof these.two,now neatly fifty ycats
of ago, sal in his study with melancholy countenance!
and heavy, heart. . His door opened, and his yonng
and fascinating daughter just blooming into woman
hood, entered to knnounoe that a gentleman, an old
gentleman,.desired to sco her father. “Show him in
my r darling daughter,” said the father,V “ and do
you my child leave ns to ourselves," She obeyed.—
The, old gentleman entered—" Weil sir,” was his
salutation— M have 'you 'considered my; proposition?”
“I hove—and havodetermined, happen what may, !
will not fbteo or sway,- by any act of mine, (be will
of my child. She shall be loft to her own free choice.’’
“Then,' sir, to-morrow, by 3 your properly
mustgo Into (he hands of the Sheriff*, unless you find
some friend to pay the twenty thousand dollars,”—
This he said with a sneer, and.coldly bowing ho loft
the house. The poor-father's.hOatt was racked. I
am a beggar—my. daughter is homeless’—l have no
friend to offer, assistance in this hour of my severest
trial. ' * . '
In,the, midst of these bitter reflections, again' his
daughter 1 ctatcrb{),lntroducing a gentleman bf.sdmo
twcnly-6igKi years of age—u stranger. “Ami in
the presence of Mr. G ?” was his dpening remark—
which being affirmatively answered, ho continued by
saying—that ho was a subccssful. rticrdhartt ofltfew
York—had'heard oT the misfortunes of Mr. G.,land
had copio oh purpose to ask' the,amount of liabilities,
that ho might loan tho necessary hinds to relievo his
.wants. Wop Was ho shocked at tho mention of the
largo amount of twenty thousand dollars, tie han
ded him his chock, which was duly honored—the
father was once more a happy man—his daughter
was not houseless—ho had found some friend to pay,
despite the sneer of his hard-hoartod creditor.' “but,
pray; sir,” said the. agitated father, “ to wliat am I
indebted for this unusual—this munificent kindness,
from an entire stranger?” you lidvo for
gotten," was the reply, “that some eighteen years
since, you aided a friendless boy of ten years bfage,
to carry his loaded basket up the hill, that you gave
him good advice, and kindly words; lam that boy.
I followed your advice—l have lived honestly—l
have gained Wealth, and now.oflcr many.years, have
come to return to you, kind sir, the broad 'which then
you cast so freely upon tho waters.” ’
It is said, gentle' reader, that our yoUng friend
caught n glimpse of a beautiful girl of nineteen as he
passed through tho entry, and that ho called again,
and still, and won at last the heart of the old man’s

As to her fortune, it is in tho liltlolchrt that attends
her. Tho object of her journey is never mistaken,
ino body wonders, at it, nor Is there occasion for n i

. A BTRANOE CLABB IN PARIS.
The city roaider has no doubt frequently observed
of"a certain class of persons, men women
and children, who fro about the streets ofNew York,
with a Hitle bag- or basket, and a small iron rod hook
ed at the end, grub|>ing/up ruga, old shoos, scraps of
food, and. every other description of refuse that can
lio turned to tho least account. These arc invariably
foreigners ; and though the occupation is a low one,
it is fur, very far higher, than to obtain a living by
.stealing or any. dishonest means.
In Paris, this clasp of people form a regular trade,
;and number altogether about 4,000. They are cal
led chiffoMf-iss They have among themselves a reg
.ulac organization, and exorcise their vigilance and
iron hooks ‘in allotted districts, that each may not
interfere with the other. Indeed, this bond of union
Is strong enough to-resist any invasion upon their
rights, which-tho government may threaten them
with. In 1832, thocholora raged dreadfully in Paris,
for a more copgcrfjif locality for that destructive in«

Egypt..“from tho nature of ilhocfcupntion, is disgust
ing in (ho extreme, though naturally ,it is a noble
object,” . How much -more disgusting is 'the aspect
of that-, far nobler, being, man, when covered with
rags, picking out a taretchod subsistence from the of.
the streets ! ' How degraded when, instead of
living on'.lho spontaneous productions.of nature, like
the savage, he subsists on the refuse, of oilier incn t
left to pntrify in the,streets. '
Of course, the Persian chiffoniers live most mise

residences, choosingUhc fields,around. Paris for their
summer beds, but patronizing tho 'brokers temporary
accommodations in-winter. When they have a fixed
habitation, it is of the filthiest description. They
deposit.tho dirty pfpdpcc-of their researches, and
there they assort them in (l;o midst, with the help of
their children. Tho'Qoor is scattered with rags, frog,
ments of broken mOat, glass, paper, &c. These ore
crowded In every corner of tho room, and under the
bod ;so (hat it is impossible .to enter without being
almost stifled by a'stench which habit alone mokes'
endurable. • To incl'oase (ho misasmi arising from
tho place, tiiQsl of the chifToniers keep a groat dog,
and sometime two,;ln their chambers, which accom
pany them in their nightly rounds.
Such is a brief description of n grade in Paris.—'

beggars, arc, if-posQiblc, still more extensive, and

AN EpiTOR KlLLEtii
The Vicksburg Whig, contains farther particulars
of the fatal difficulty between Mr. Crabb and Mr.
Jcnkiiis, the editor of the Vicksburg Sentinel, -
As they met, says the Whig, Mr; Jenkins used the
i customarywords of salutation. This seems to have
been the unfortunate causa of the bloody, scene which
followed;.whatever may huvp been,llivir,.intention,
(ho words were interpreted, Under J,ljc clrcUfpslaijccs,
as an insult of taunt, .and the. reply, may.,almost be
anticipated. It was—“ What do you mean by speak*
Ing to me, sir," in a stern tone of voice. Mr Jen*
kins made some rejoinder which was not distinctly
heard, at the sspie tjme putting bis hand Under Ills
vest, as if with, life intention of drawing a weapon.
Mr. Crabb dropped 'a cane and seized the hands of
Mf.-Jehkms—a struggle, enoued—tho hands became
parll/dlscngagcd—a knife was parties
fell, to the pavement, Mr. Crabb being, uppermost.—
While in this position Mr. Jenkins stabbed Mr. Crabb
several times In the back and neck.,,.All this; was
the work of a moment. - Two gentlemen (Drs. bhnan- 1
uel and Drou'dinax) immcdiutely look hold of the
parlies and’sepnrated them; Mr. Jenkins stepped in
to a door within a few paces, and Mr. Crabb bleeding
very profusely, was soliciliited to enter the drug
store, one door above where Mr. J. had entered.
This ho positively refused, and turning immediately
walking within sight of Mr.. Jenkins, and deliberate,
ly presented otyslol, which ho had drawn from his
pocket after tie was slabbed and us the parlies were
polled apart. Hp lowered the weapon, however,
without firing, and turning awdy with the remark—
-111 do not wish to kill him—and I will not kill him,
even now,”-or words very nekrly to that effect,
After walking a few paces, ho turned again and Mr.
Jenkins stepped out pflho door where ho was stand
ing’ and came, towards Mr. C, with his knife in a
striking position: then Mr. Crabb raised bis pistol
add bred—Mr.'Jenkins still advanced more rapidly
than before olid inflicted another wobnd upon Mr.
C.’s neck—when-Dr. Broadnax: not believing that
tho shot had. taken effect; caught Mr. J.*s arm and
besought him to strike tip.more; at that.moment he
commenced sinking, and tho Doctor caught him in i
his arlhsj and in a few moments afterwards ho expi
red.
These ore the facts, as related to as, by the eye
witnesses of an occurrence which has shrouded our
community in gloom.
Hoaxing John Van Bures.—A number of Jokes
