The description of the poet,
In communion with the nanses,
When ho pen'd the sacred verses,
Verses, sung by many christiana,;
Chrisians, taught by revelation
When he of its description,
And the place of its locatitin,
Throws u mystery around it.
He describes it as a city,
As a great and spacious city, . ,
By its massive walls protected,
Gates of pearl as white as crystal;
And with massive golden pavements, . '
Where the angels sing their praises,
Unto God, who has rededied them,
Day and night without cession;
'Tis the song of humble christians
Of enlightened humble chrlsthuar.
'Tis the song, they sing of Heaven:
But the song of its location,
Adds encha &tient to the story, A.
Adds enchantment by the distance.
Time and space annihilated,
In a single line he's pen'd it;
He has fixed for the location, i
Tho location of his Heaven,
Heaven feedisembodied spirits,,
And their dwelling place In future,
On a place, somewhat romantic,-
'On a place, beyond all place,
And where time's too short to roach it ;
On a place, "beyond the'b.mndsof
'Pima and space," which are eternal;
Two absurdities together,
As no bounds knJwn to either.
Gu I, by his dscree, eternal,
lies from mortals, hid the futtiri ;
'Tie his plan, his will, unaltered;
Leaves them all - in common tiiiiidness,
Common blindness of the futurk'
Common blindnets of its detail
Each one forms his own opiuluti,
Own opinion of the future, ;
Own opinion of a Heaven,
Of a May - 0 lied like to dwell 15,
Such, as would best suit has notion,
Such, as would best suit her wishes,
And would gratify his passions;
Theologians, ease and comfort,
Heathen, a good place for, hunting ;
•
But professors, who are worldly,
Would prefer a golden city.
Could we trace each generation,
'Trace each generation backwards,
'Trace ea.,.h backwards, tall we some to
Eve and Adorn in the garden;
We mull never find two persons,
Find two persons in our searches,
Just alike in mind and body ;
Wo should find each one, possessed of
Certain traits, and certain notions,
Notions of his own, peculiar,
Of the present and the future, •
And each person, quite tenaeioui,
Sanguine in her own opinion,
Of the duties of a christian.

Book.
BY LU LIGHT
I caught the sparrow's note from heaven,
Singing at the dawn on the alder bough
I brought him home in his nest at even
Ile sings the song but it pleases not now
For I did not bring home the river and sky
Ile sang to my earollemo sang to my eye
Every vein but a silver vein leads
back to the heart.
A certain author says that a lady offi
cer,if she wanted to give the word •halt;
would do so as follows: " You soldiers,
all of you, now mind, I order you,as soon
as I have done speaking, to stand still
every one of you, on the spot you hap
pen to be; don't you hear me lialt
say, all of you l"
There's many an empty cradle
There's many& v.teant bed,
There's many a lonesome bosom,
Whosejoy and light has fled,
For thick in every graveyard,
The little hillock represents,
An angel in the sky.
" Mr. Timothy," said a young lady,
who had been showing off her wit at the
expense of a dangler; "you remind me
of a barometer that is filled with nothing
in the upper story." " Divine Almira,"
meekly replied her adorer, "in thanking
you fur that compliment, let me remind
you that you occupy my upper story en
tirely."
Youth is not rich in time, it may be poor
Part witkit as with, money, sparing ;
/To moment but in purchase of its worth,
And what its worth ask death-beds; they can tell.
She lived ns peaceful as a dove ;
She died as blossoms dio
And now her Spirit floats above
A seraph in the sky.
"Bobby, what is steam?" " Boiling
water." "That's right—compare it ?"
" Positive, boil; comparative, boiler ;
superlative, burst."
Enjoy your little, while-the fool seeks
for more.
A wise man changes his mind; a fool
never.
Quiet consciences never produce in
quiet conversations.
Speak vrell of your friend of your
enemy say nothing.
By forgetfulness of injuries we !show
ourselves superior to them.
Too much we give unto the things
that perish.
There are evil moments in our life,
when but a thought, word or look has
power to dash the cup of happiness aside
and stamped us wretched,
Cornmsonuats.—Why is a letter with
a ten dollar bill in it like the Popes an
athems? Because it is an X communi

What is the difference between your
great Coat and a bibi? One Yon wear,
the other yo . 9.fras . qk
Why is a WhajilWe a yraterAY? Be

What is the difference between your
mouth and a bandbox ? NOV much.—
Either is ajood place to put a muff in.
Why is the bride-groom more expen
sive-than-the bride ? Bee"ause the bride
is always given away, while the bride
groom is usually sold.
Why will the emblem of the United
States outlive those of England, France,
Scotland and Ireland ?
The "rose" may fade, and droop. "the.
thistle wither and the shamrock die, but
the stars are enema).
Why is a gavien's wildered maze, like
a young widow fresh and fair? Because
it wants some liand to raise the weeds
that have no" business the"re.
Why is a fence, with a hen sitting on

Why is a kiss like creation? Because

A New Cure for Hydroph)bia
Dr. Buisson, of Paris, was lately called
in to treat a woman who had been seized
with hydrophobic, one in whom the dis
ease" had reached its final crisis. Having
bled the patient, he wiped his hands
with a cloth, moistened by the saliva of
the dying Berson. On the forefinger of
the left hand he had a trifling with the
skin lii•okeri. lie at once perceived his
i:uprud.ince, but trusting to the method
of cure lately discovered by him, he was
satisfied with washing in water. 'Think
ing,' says M. Buisson, "that the malady
would not declare itself before the for
tieth day, and having many patients to
visit, I put off taking any remedy of va
pour baths from one day to another
On the ninth day, being in my closet, `I
felt all at once a pain in: my 'throat, and
one yet more keen in my eyes; my body
felt so light that I thought if I jumped I
could rise to a prodigious height, or that
if I threw myself from the window I
should be able to float in the air; the
hairs of my head were,so, sensitive that
it seemed to me as if without seein.:
them I could have counted them ; saliva
rcse continually' to my mouth ; contact
with the external air caused me fright
ful pain, and I shunned looking at any
thing bright ; I had an incessant longing
to run after and bite, not men, but ani
mals and even objects about.= ; I drank
with difficulty and I may mention that
the sight of water tried me more than
the pain in my - throat ; I believe that by
shutting the eyes every one with hydro
phobia may always drink. An attack
came on every five minutes and I observ
ed that the pain began in the forefingers
and stretched along the nerves of the
shoulder. Thinking that my system was
only preservativ, not curative, in its na.
ture, I tJok a vapor bath, with the in
tention, not of healing, but of suffocating
myself. When the bath was at a heat of
fifty-two degrees, centigrade, all .the
symptoms disappeared as if by enchant
ment, and I have felt nothing of them
since. I have treated more than eighty"
persons who have beat bitten by animals
in a state of madness, and all hive been
saved by this method." fThen a person
has beet bitten by a mad dog, he should
be made to take seven of the so-called
Russian vapor baths, from fifty seven
degrees to sixty-three degreasdentegrade
hot, ono every day, by way of preventive.
in case of the malady haiing distinctly
shown itself the vapor bath should be
heated rapidly to thirty-seven degrees
centigrade, then slowly to sixty-three de
grees. The patient should strictly confine
himself to his room until he is quite well. ,
Dr. Buisson mentions some other curious
facts. A man in America was bitten by
a rattlesnake, about six miles from home.
Wishing to die in the bosom of his family
ho ran home, went to bed, perspired
plentifully, and-..the would healed like
any simple sore. ;The bite of the taran
tula is cured by dancittg, the virus being
dissipated by perspiration. 14an infant
who has been vaccinated is made to take

A Chapter of Mormon Life. ( which I had taken passagic This4rts
The following history of one of the I about midnight, that solemn and:•awftti.
victims . of Mormonism is from the St. hour when."ghosts troop forth," lhf.,and
Joseph, Missouri, Herald:
Somewhat over one year ago, a young
lady left her Lime in • Pennsylvania—a
home where all the luauries'of life were
at her command. Her parents were in
dulgent, and al.a, r.a only child : was loved
by them with all the fondness of true pa
rental affection. No wish of hers re
mained ungratified. fit she was the idol
of those parents,and the light of the home
made•desolate by an act which will forev
er cast its shado . ir on her heart. In Feb-
. -
?nary, 1864,-she beceme acquainted with
a Mormon preacher, who painted to her
is glowing the glories of Utah and the
Mormon region. He told her of the
beautiful valleys of Utah, fortified on all
sides by giant mountains, whose peaks,
burnished by eternal snows, looked down
upon the valleys of perpetual green, peo
pled by God's own chosen kindred who
were free as the mountain torrents that
leap the rocks of lofty Timpanago's range.
He told her of the' content 'and peace
reigning among the saints, and assured
her that the Mormons were God's own
peculiar people, and so worked upon her
imagination that she finally consented to
leve friends, family, and all the endear
ments of home, and go with him to tha
Valley of the Saints. Arriving at Chi
cago he forced her to marry him, the
ceremony being performed by a mock
priest, without either record or license.
In April she left Wyoming, Nebraska
with-a_ Mormon train, for the land of
promise, ; and finally arrived in the city of
the saints. Here she found that her
husband- had four other wives, who re
gar:ded her with no tender emotions; but
heaped abuse and contumely upon her
head. After a few months her liege lord
told her he had concluded to sell her to
another, who had taken a great fancy to
her; that his other wives were jealous,
and declared his last wife should live
with him no longer. She declined she
would die before she would thus be put
away and forced to live as the wife of a
man with whom she had no acqUaintanee
and has seen but once in hei•
husband told her that it was Brigham's
order that she must do so or lose her life•
Determined not to be thus sacrificed she
started to run away, with the intention
of making her - way to. Camp Breckenridge
in .Cedar Valley, then garrisoned by Uni
ted States troors, 'and claim protection
there. . She started on foot, and after
traveling about ton miles was.caught and
brought back, placed in a dungenn, or
rather a cellar, and was there kopt for a
month; with just food enough to sustain
life. The man whom she refused to live
with, frequently visited her, and besought
her to change her resolution in order to
save her life. Through force of circum
stances sheat last yielded, and was duly
installed in the family as his sixth wife..
Here she found, as before, jealousies and
quarrels arising wore intolerable,and shu
again determined to escape or die in the
attempt. This time she succeeded in
reaching the headquarters of General
Conner, to whom she told her tale of
suffering. The General sent her through
to the,States with a Government train
bound.4for Fort Kearney, which place
she reacheda few weeks ago. She is now
in this city which she will soon leave, a
repentant and sorrowful child, for her
home in Pennsylvania—that home she
was persuaded to desert through the
misrepresentations and wiles of a crafty
scoundrel.
Bean Hackett Snapaed up by a Bridal
Party
A honeymoon is a sweet thing. You
Gill observe that a joke is intended some
where between 'the words honey and
sweet, which I have not the time and
apace to elucidate. The partial expla
nation is made in the Selief that you do
not furnish your readers with microscopes,
with which to see the point of fine jokes.
Well ! As I said before, a few even
ings since, I loft the Garden City, whioh
owes its nicknrme to the fact that there
are so many dead beats there,) and journ
ied by rail to Porkopolis. Aod here I
am. Chicago is a good place to live, es
pecially- when the summer wagon ap
proaches apace, and the ambrosial odors
of the Brigaport slaughter houses begin
to ascend beavalward_and nostrilward.
I advise all blind people, -who want to
enjoy life, to remove to Chicago, for if
they Can't see it thej can smell it, and
thereby have the satisfaction of knowing
that they are somewhere at least.
On my way down per jail, (not astride
of it, however,),l met with an adventure,
the first I ever had, and I want to tell
you,all about it. Away up in Indiana,
