WOODWARD, Miss HESNER, and j Miss BUTLER, who were drowned together, January lUlli, IliO, near Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania [INSCRIBED TO THE HONORABLE O. W. WOODWARD] 'Tis sad to weep and wake Beside the severing tie, To woo in vain the shadows back That dim the loving eye ; But sadder far to see the blight Of undeparted bloom, That lelt no track from day lo night— From spring-time to the tomb. j Thus to this gentle trio came I be angel ol the grave— Quenched with a look the vital flame, And chilled the purple wave ; And drinking quick the precious breath, He lelt his ta>k abroad, i To bear th' unfading wreath of Death, And precious gems to God. 1 his is the bairn of bleeding love, In tile's dear purpose cross'd, J he shrouded here are winged above— 'l he loved, BUT NOT THE LOST ! 1 he smile o! Heaven had early won Each heart Irom earth awav ; And death was but the sudden dawn Ol" evetiasting day. Thou, Lllen, in thy childhood bright. The way but little trod, Jladsl turned from earth's delusive light, 1 o yield thy heart to God. An opening ilower, that caught the hue Ol Heaven's refulgent dyes, And dripping with the morning dew, Was gathered to the skies. 'I were sweet to have thee bloom in time, But sweeter far to thee To pout - thy lragratice in the clime Of immortality. Where blossoms close not for the night, Nor dread the storm to come— I he noon-day heat and evening blithe Are far beneath thy home. * This tale o'er many a soul will hang In shadows for a dav ; Bui there are hearts from which the pang Will pass no more away— Hearts that in after years w ill beat, Ev'n as to-night, m pain, And hear in dreams the coming feet That ne'er shall come again. God help the mother iri her grief, I'he lather in his wo! The hand alone can give relief That measured out the blow. Thy blessing on each lonely hearth, And grant the spirits riven, That loved and severed here on earth May meet and love in Heaven! CENTRE COLNTT, PA. H. J. M. JH tsc rll nuro us. j THE CEKIIU THERTIOPYLL; A Sketch of the American Revolution. translated Ir m the (J-rnißn f. r the Pittsburgh Post, by C F. Sa.NDKRS. There are, we presume, but few of our readers who have not heard of the beauti ful Wyoming Valley, that rich and fertile tract of land, situated in the State of Penn sylvania, and which has often been cele brated by poets and writers. This valley wa> tirsi ::;ul oiiieflv set'led bv Germans. It contains rich laruis, fields and meadows, together with valuable limber land, and was visited with lire and sword, by a party of American Tories, British, and Indians, in the \ 1 ar 1 <7B, at a time when the male population ol the settlement, which num ber amounted to about 350 souls, had joined tii" arinj of the great and immortal Washington, at a distance of several days journey, where they expected to encounter the main army of the enemv. i he ( olonel of these \\ yoming Ger mans was HOI.LEN UACH, a justice of the peace. He was an intimate friend nf Washington, who knew how to appreciate his distinguished qualities, as well as his rare intelligence; although as to matters regarding religion, their views and opin ions differed widely from each other, as it is well known that Washington was a strict believer in the Bible ; whereas Ilol lenbaeh did adhere to the doctrines of Thus. I'aine, who was a philosopher and freethinker. The heart-rending call in distress, of their parents, wives and children, which they had left at home, soon reached the cars of I lit? Wyoming Volunteers, and in an instant llolleuhach found himself sur rounded by his men, who urged him to meet the enemy, whose force consisted of more than 2,000 men. In vain were the representations of Washington, who, being aware of the su perior numerical strength of these barba rous and plundering hordes, had prognos ticated to all a sure death. Terror and agony moved the heart of every one at the thought of the dear ones which they had left behind and unprotect ed, and clinched their lists in eagerness for combat and vengeance at the gloomy pros pects of their ruined happiness ; and it was now no longer possible for them to remain with the army. At the sound of the trumpet, and headed by their Colonel, they began to return I homeward in great haste, marching day and night, until they arrived at their settle ment, where, instead of meeting again their peaceable abodes, they beheld the smoking ruins of destroyed dwellings, near to which the enemies had comfortably erected their tents, their morning lire blaz ing triumphantly in the air, intermingled with their huzzas. They soon recognised the red hordes of . Brant, the notorious spoiler of the 44 Ger man Flat," who had joined the rapacious and blood-thirsty Tories and British, which but a short time ago in Cherry Valley, had given such terrible proofs of their cruelties. \ ith dolelul looks Hollenbach regarded his gallant little band, who gnashed their teeth for rage and vengeance, stood near the place of destruction, and the looks of his men announced to him the inmost thoughts of their hearts. There was none who would have trem bled at an assault on these hordes of mur derers. 41 Brothers !" exclaimed Ilollenbach, • 4 against such cowards, who watch for our absence, and who now rejoice in victory over women and children only, every one ol us can stand the ground against eight of them. Let us send these brutes to h—l in such a manner that even the d—l himself must have respect for the Germans of \V yonting \ alley," and raising himself trom his saddle he waived his sword in the air, and spurred his horse onward. J hundering hurras followed his words, antl his men rushed forward, eager for the ensuing combat. At the tirst volley, more than one hundred of these red-skins, (who formed the advance guard ol the enemy,) were weltering in their blood. The ene my were quietly reposing in their camp, but in an instant the whole army was ap prised of tfte assault, and from all sides they rushed upon the gallant little corps. The sun rose, spreading its animating beams upon the exhausted Germans, who in a moment made arrangements to take the stand behind a row of ruins, and to watt tor the approaah of their enemies.— I he first assault of the enemy was re pulsed, and many kissed the earth in death, caused by the dense drift of bullets sent forth Irom behind the entrenchments. I he mockery about this powerful resist ance and bravery, which the appearance of the little band so openly demonstrated to wards the enemy, soon engaged its whole army in a furious combat, but they were not able to stand their ground against the discharge of the pieces of the little band, I which rattling, cleared their ranks. Re pulsed repeatedly, and again hurrying into the fight, the enemy couid not gain a foot ! of ground, although their guns began to clear the ranks of their powerful antagonists. During twelve long hours, these German Spartans manfully resisted the superior force of tlte enemy. finally, and with the last glowing of the -etting sun, the fate ol the day was decided ; 300 Germans had fallen in defence of their adopted country, and 50 more lay badly wounded, who would not seek for quar ters, and still striving to make a last effort against the enemy, who seeing their deter mination, had almost been driven to mad ness on account of their bravery. W hat a noble military achievement! W hat persevering heroism ! Had these men been Americans, thei/ would, up to this dot/, have been remembered by the na tion as the 44 Immortal If yoming Boys but they "were only Germans, and their memory, which is as worthv of immortal ity as that ot the Helens of Thermopylae, remains silently recorded in the book of History of two Pennsvivania counties ! A GRACELESS GRACE.—A scrimp who use 1 to raise particular purgatory about Mtddlebury College, had taken a fancv to the daughter of a staid old deacon, who frequently invited him to dinner. The deacon called upon him one diy to ask the customary blessing, and wishing it to lie understood that there was nothing he could not do. made the attempt. Hastily recollecting all lie could of the usual form, lie made an excellent start, but for his life could not tell how to close. It was easier to go 011 than stop. Finally, making a desperate dash alter a period, he finished thus : " In conclusion, my dear sir, I re main very respectfully and truly your obe dient servant!" CHURCH FUEL. —An ex-governor, whcsa name we suppress out of regard for his family, relates a good storv of a man whose life had not been entirely unspotted, who applied to a worthy deacon lor ad mission into his church. Unwilling to of fend him, and yet not inclined to receive him, the deacon replied, '• The church is full just now, when there is a vacancy I will notify you !" A lady making inquiries of a boy about his father, an intemperate man, who had been sick for some time, asked whether he had regained his appetite. U No ma am, says the boy, "not exactly ; his appetite is very poor, but his drinketite is as good as ever." CONUNDRUMS. —Why is an unwelcome visiter like a shade tree ? \\ e are glad when he fcavis. Why is a lawyer like a tailor ? He is always ready to commence a suit. Whv are two t's like hops ? They make beer better. A suit has been commenced, in New port, R. 1., against a man for stealing a house. That comes close upon the per formance of the man down east, who stole a saw-mill and got caught when he went back to steal the dam. \ew Series—Vol. -T—!\'o. 26. We cannot understand how it is that , delicate young ladies, too delicate to run up and down stairs in their own houses, are able to dance down the strongest men in a ball room. 'Tis a phenomenon of nature of which no one seems capable iof giving an explanation. What young girl ever refused a handsome partner at five o'clock in the morning on die score of being 4 so tired !' I To THE LADIES.—Kid gloves maybe i cleaned with milk. Husbands may be subdued by the use of the broomstick. Paint of adhesive quality may be removed from the cheeks by washing in strong: ley, and to prevent the skin from becoming rough anoint it afterwards with lamp oil. Monkey jackets, it is said, will not be the fashion this summer. In sickness there is no hand like a woman's hand—no heart like a woman's heart—no eye so untiring, no hope so fer vent. Woman by a sick man's couch is divinity impersonated. There is no religion like that of the heart, no charity like that which does not blow its own trumpet.
