He rests, but ncT47rest of sleep, AVcighs downs sunken eyes; The rigid slumbtats too deep, The calm tooli;lathless lies! Srunk are the wateicaing veins that streak The fixed and trble brow; There is no life-1 l 1 on the check— Deatd death! liknow thee now! Pale King of Terr rs: thou art here— in all thy dark y: But 'tts the imni 'cep and fear Beneath dixectiemay: Bring flowers afid n trown the early dead, Their hour of Bandage past— But woe for thoseixho mourn and dread, And linger till tlAr last. Spring bath its music and its bloom, And morn its glaiimas But still a shadow front the tomb, A sadness and a light, Arc ever on cardis 4veli:,t things; The breath of clyauge is there, And death his dusk - shadow flings O'er all that' loved and fair.

THE El,' : The followinfrin .e n t;:l frerCtitritlwtirin / /t/W: Firra Kane Relief Expedition. The Esquitnaux here sketched inhabit the region between Capes Alexander and Datherton. The writer is at the village of Etah, making in quiries for Dr. Kane and his party and he thus pictures the DIRTY HABITS OF THE These unsophisticated children of the fur -1 est land never wash off dirt—for the simple reason that, of dirt, as such, they have no conception or idea. If their faces get so foul as to clog their nostrils, they open the air passages just as they clear away the of fal from the door of their tent, when it im pedes their ingress and egress. On our ex plaining to a woman that we wished her to wash her face she at first refused; but being bribed with a paper of needle., she caught a bird, skinned it. and spitting on its fresh bleeding skin, polished her face with it.— My friend Mayonk had dirt on his face one quarter of an inch thick when I first saw him. The next time I met bins I did not recognize him, and and actually requested Mayonk himself to send Mi.yonk to me.— Two of our sailors had caught him, and in spite of his struggle., insisted on washing his face. He did not seem to appreciate the improvement made in his appearance; on the contrary he was quite mortified, for he had become the laughing stock of his companions. I would speak plainly of the personal habits of these people if it were only fur the benefit of a class of philosophers among us who delight in chanting tho vices of civiliza tion, and dreaming of what man might be if he could only get back to a state of nature. But there are pictures, and life-like ones, that we cover with a curtain. =I Improvidence is another trait of these 'fresh children of impulse.' We . were at their village as late as the 19th of August. Yet, although the auks were flying around them in such quantities that one man could have been able to catch a thousand an hour, they had not enough prepared for winter to last two days. They were all disgustingly fat, and always eating—perhaps an average ration of nineteen pounds per diem—yet they had lost seven by starvation during the last winter, though relieved, as far as we could make it Out, by the "Doeto Kayene". =I They suffer dreadfully from cold, too, yet there is abundance of excellent peat which they might dig during the summer. They know its value as fuel, and are simply too lazy to stock it. The little auk which forms their principal food, may be said also to bo their only fuel. Indeed it quite fills the place the seal holds among the most southern Esquimaux.— I Their clothes are lined with its skins, they burn the fat, and setting aside, the livers and hearts, to he dried and consumed as bonbons during the winter, they cat the meat and lintestines cooked and raw, cold and at blood heat. I remember one night a child woke up crying with cold feet. His mother reached out to one side of the bed, took up a pair of birds, killed them, turned the skins inside out, and drew them while still warm on to his feet, to serve as stoekingl, pulling his little boots on after them. They are very hospitable; the minute we arrived, all hands began to catch birds and prepare them fur use. Tearing off the skins I with their teeth, they stripped the breasts to be cooked and presented to us, with the juicy entrails and remaining portions to cat raw, to stay our appetites. The viands did not look inviting to us who had witnessed their preparation; but they appeared so hurt at our refusing to eat, that we bad to explain, that it was not cooked, but raw birds we wanted. This was satisfactory.— They set out at once to catch some for us: and in a few moments three of them were on their way down to our boat laden with birds. Their way of catching them is peculiar.— They have small scoop nets, attached to long poles, not unlike those fur catching en tomological specimens. A man will take one of these, and having stripped of"' his jumper, and tied its sleeves so that he may Use it as a sack, will lay himself down on the hill side, and net the birds, three or four at a time, taking them out une by one and biting their heads; ur, if he d_c.; not wish to take their lives at once, merely locking their wings. We saw piles of auks flying about the village in this cmliticn. They have no regular hours for meals or sleep, but each sleeps, wakes or eats as best pleases him. I don't know anything which impresses one more forcibly than the dis gusting nearness of man to the brute, than to sea a human being, thus wake front sleep stretch out his hand, sieze a bird, and after devouring it raw like a wolf, turn over and go to sleep again. Aad yet they are not wanting in courtesy of quite an elevated character. For instance, Mrs. Mitch, the widow of a chief apologized to me for her see.ning want of hospitality on one oseasion, and explained to me by most expressive signs, and no inconsiderable exposure of her person, that she hoped she was about to present the house of Mitch. wit to heir.— She was as fortunate asshehar; for I saw her not quite an hour afterwards, walking about with a fine boy, both parties looking as unconcerned as if nothing unusual had ever happened to either. The small animal was the imago of his father, and dressed in a costume similar in cut and color to that of hoiaaNwp.nd...LumEtaz nil complete—the only difference being that the skin of the white fix was substituted for that of the bear. NAUX. p_'o'Stract we Us They always take off their clothes on go ing to sleep; and men, women and children all lie coddled up together to keep them selves warm. If you come on them, sud denly, in this plight, they aro not abashed, but will politely offer to make room for you to join the group. It is well however to ac cept these hospitalities with some reserve.— Burns had not slept in an Etah but, or he should never hare sung of that Notitary 'beastio' on the lady's bonnet. THE SMITH OF RAGF,NBACH 1 In the Principality of Holtenlohe, Lau genburg, is a village culled Ragenbach, where about twenty years ago the following heart-rending but also heroic event took place. One afternoon in the early spring or autumn, my kind intirmant did not ex :wily know which, in the tavern room or Ragenbach, several men and Nvomen hating assembled front the village, sat at thch ease, none anticipating what would happen on that eventful day. The stnith formed ere of the merry company, a strong, vigorous man, with a resolute countenance and daring mien, but also with such it good natured smile upon his lips that every one Rho saw him admired him. E%cry evil disk:used per son shunned him, fur the val:ant smith would allow nothing wrong in his pre: ence, and it was not ads isable to have anything to do with him except in a proper manner. His arms were like bars of iron, and his fists like forge hammer., so that few could equal his strength of body. The brave smith sat near the door chatting with one of his neighbors, I know not what; all at once the door sprang open, and a large dog came staggering into the room, a great, strong, powerful beast, with a ferocious, frightful aspect, his head was hanging down and his eyes bloodshot, his red colored tongue hanging half way out of his mouth and his tail dropped between his legs. Thus the ferocious beast entered the room, out of which there was no escape but by one door. Scarcely had the smith's neighbor, who was bath keeper of the place, seen the animal, when he became deathly pale, sprang up and exclaimed with a horrid voice, "Good Heavens, the dog is mad:" Then rose an outcry! the room was full of men and women, and the foaming beast stood before the only entrance; no ono could leave without passing hint. He snapped savagely right and left, and no one could pass him without being bitten. This in creased the horrible confusion. All sprang up and shrank from the furious dog, with agonizing countenances. Who should deliv er them from him? The smith also stood among them, and as he saw the anguish of; the people, it dashed across his mind how many cf his happy and contented neigh bors would ho made miserable by a mad dog, and ho formed a resolution, the like of , which is scarcely to be found in the history of the human race for high mindedness and nobleness. Certainly his brown cheek paled a little, but his eyes sparkled with divine fire, and an elevated resolution shone from the smotrth brew of the simple minded man. =EI I= 150 P : • . C $2 0 - IV. "Back all!" thundered he with his deep strong voice. ''Let no one stir, for no one can vanquish the Least but I. One victim must fall in order to save all, and I will be that victim, I will hold the brute, and whiLt Idu so, make your escape." The smith had scarcely spoken these words, when the dog started towards the shrieking people. But he went not far. "With God's help!" cried the smith, and rushed upon the fAttainr Least, siezed him with an iron grnsp, and da-Led hire b, the P.ccr. Oh, what a. tsrrible strug.le Collowed!

"De quiet, my; friends, do not weep for me," he said, "one mt,,t ale in order to save the others. Do not thank me, for I have only performed my duty.— When 1 ant dead think of me with love, and now pray for me that God w:11 tot me quflcr lout; or too much.

The rest I leztVe to God; into his hands I commend my spirit." Nothing, could race the brave smith, neither tears, lamentations, and prayers.
