The Returning Pestilence.
BY JOHN C. LORD, D. D.
By river and fountain.
By desert and plain,
Over valley and mountain
-I am coming again.
To execute judgment—an Angel of Wrath,
With Terror, and Anguish, and Death in my path
In the East I began,
O’er the dark jungles sweeping
In the old Hindoosta^i
Was wailing and weeping.
From the plague-smitten city e’en the Parians (lee,
And Gunga, corpse-burdened, rolls on to the sea.
On the flower sccnted-gale,
Is the taint of my breath,
And Persian wives wail
For the Angel of Death. .
In the land of the rose his shadow had cast,
And darkened the hopes of their heart as he pass’d.
Then Siberian^snow
In my passage I crossed,
And the death-wail arose
In the regions of frost.
In the Ice-Monarch’s mantle was there no defence,
’Gainst the life-quelling touch of the pestilence.
By the sign of Salvation
1 paused fora time ;
From each Christian nation
Rose voieps of crime. [gone,
•Though the symbol was there, the substance was
To the harvest of death 1 went speedily on.
Then Russia—the cold —
In my pathway I swept
And in Moscow, the old.
The grey-bearded have wept
Who saw, without tears, their palace:; fired
For him whose commission at Moscow expired
And onward advancing,
Like a strong man from whip,
Where tun-browned are dancing
in the land of the vine.
With the step of a giant, Death’s wine press 1 tread
Before me the living—behind me the d^ud.
Weep maids of Vienna !
Howl, Paris and Rulin' !
The gates of Gehenna,
, Are opening lor doom.
The plague-cart shall wait at your mansion d!‘ pride,
The ric-h with thejjoor to the Dark-House shall ride.
At last I shall sail
For the star-bannered West,
And my barque shall not Tail
O'er the Ocean's broad breast,
To land me—long dreaded —though my shipmate
shall sleep,
Where o’er the sea-buried the meriuaidens weep.

Woman.
Hono nF.iObe woman! Shame on those, who
would speak to her. or of her, in other than terms
ol kindness and vesper.t. A gallant cotemporary
thinks that tills world would be hardly worth living
ill, \vere*it deprived of woman. Listen to the raj>-
sliody:—Whowould remain in a garden from which
’ the flowers have been taken, or in a grove from
which the birds have departed, or beneath a sky that
the sweet stars had forsaken ' Let cynics prattle
as they may, our existence here without the pres
ence of the other sex, would be only a dark and
cheerless void. 'The light, the smiles and aflertions
of woman, are the low bow of beauty and promise,
which spans the life of man from his cradle to his
Another writer says, George Channing always
cherished the tenderest love for the humble mother
that bare him. So soon as his resources would per
mit, he made ample provision for her support; and
for years afterwards he entered Parliament, and even
when a foreign Ambassador, he wrote her a weekly
epistle, breathing the kindliest affection. Though
he could never elevate her taste and associations
above the connections of her youth, he used to
throw aside the cares of office, that he might visit
her and the humble cousins with whom she dwelt,
at Bath, and there, when in the zenith of his fame,
would walk out with his plebeian relatives, and re
ceive the homage of his lordly visitants at that fash
ionable place of resort, in their company. This
makes him a noble man. He delighted in literary
pursuits—was a brilliant essayist and wrote Latin
and English verses with much grace and beauty.
How entwined around the heart of the best and
greatest men, are the thousand recollections of ma-
ternal love! In looking back through the desert
of years, to the first years of life, the rosy spring
time of existence, the soul beholds a molher's form
shining like an angel in Paradise. Around her
clusters ill that is beautiful and holy ; —site is the
child's divinity: and the memory of the man recog
nizes and recalls all that w.as. heavenly and pure
in past life, by reverting to the dear thought of
viother.
Lamartine, in his “ Voyage en Orient. touchingly
adverts to his mother's teaching. “’My mother,”
he says,‘“had received from her mother a handsome
Bible of Boyoumont from which she taught me to
Tead when I was young. This Bible had engrav
ings of sacred subjects, on nearly every page. When
1 had read a page with tolerable correctness, my
mother allowed me to see a picture; and placing
theibook upon her knees she explained the subject
to me, as a recompense for my progress. She was
most tender arid affectionate by nature, and the im
pressiveness and love, which still resounds in my
heart, after that voice has, alas, been long mute!"
What bora wonder is it that the child who list
ened to such teachings, from such a teacher, should
have become the great and good man Lamartine ?
Our own Washington had likewise such a mother.
Never can the soft, gentle whisper of a mother's
• early teaching be forgotten—never can her influence

The Trappe—“ Ich Ersteige s ’— I The
Burial Place of Gov. Shiuik.
BY JAMES REES.
There is a pleasant little village called the
Trappe, situated in a most delightful' part of our
State, about 28 miles from Philadelphia, on the
main road leading to., Reading. Its rural beauty,
the salubrity of the vicinity to the romantic
Schuylkill, the intelligence of its inhabitants, all
unite in making it as lovely a spot as the heart of
man could desire. Not long since a question arose
as to the origin of its name, and many were the
strange interpretation o given to its cognomen, and
genealogy. Some have asserted, and roundly too,
that it took its name from a house of doubtful
character, into which strangers were entrapped,
murdered, and robbed. To this version some, cogent
arguments have been adduced, and if it were not
for proof in our possession of the real origin, this
one could be sustained by many facts in relation to
such a house. Another version is given of an old
settler being lost in the snow, and afterward found
in one of the ravines trapped by underwood, &c. &c.
As the true origin is somewhat curious, we send
it to you for publication. Upwards of an hundred
years ago there stood a small house at the foot of
tliV hill, which runs back from the now main road,
kept by an old man. an intimate acquaintance
of the Rev. Air. Muhlenberg,* who had located,
or rather was in the habit of preaching there to
the few inhabitants,'as well as to the settlers in
various parts ol the State. He made this little
hotel his resting place, and it is stated by old people,
residents of the place, that letters were received
from the old country to his address, post-marked
li Jit the Trcppe , Providence , Jhnerira" This house
was built Upon a little rising ground, some few feet
above the level of the road, leading tp which were
thhkk KTKi's, it had neither sign or signal, but was.
universally called the house of steps, and the Ger
mans, perhaps Mr. Muhlenberg himself, gave it the
name ol the ‘ ; Tuephe," meaning steps. In progress
of time the harsh sound of Treppe was soitened
down to Trappe, and by which name it lias been
called and known ever since. It is invariably writ
ten Trap, and thirty years ago, if it had been spell
ed or written Trappe , one-half of the people in that
section of the country would not have known its
locality. Hence it is that merchants and others
have fallen gradually into the custom, and we find
it so written even to the present day, nor has the
old German termination of sound been lieard since
tin* days of old Patriatich Muhlenberg.
There is one other curious fact connected with
tins place worth relating. The private seal of our
worthy’ Governor, Francis R. Sliunk, had on it the
impress of three steps , with this motto I, lch Hu
stkioe,*’ raise yourself aud when we take into con
sideration that he was born at the Trappe, the true
origin of its name cannot be doubted, nor will we
bo convinced it bus any other until
“ Thou ean'st rail the seal from off my bond,’
which is here annexed in proof of our position.
Apart lrom the curious coincidence of the three
steps being engraved upon the seal of Governor
Slumk, there is a voice in the “/»•/< Ersteii'e." which
his high station makes almost prophetic. It may.
for aught we know, be ihe same insignia T
His graudsire wore about bis neck
In three seat rings.” — Shuk.
And probably possess a charm which will serve
as an amulet against
“ The guilt, belli of deceit and malice.
‘The reader will understand this to be the grand
father of Henry A. Muhlenberg, deceased.
lladame Lamartine.
The wife of Lamartine is an English woman,
whose maiden name is Birch. We learn from the
Manchester Guardian, that, while no longer in the
bloom of youth, she became passionately enarmored
of Lamartine from a perusal of his “ Meditations.”
Becoming apprised, from a newspaper statement,
of the embarrassed.condition of his affairs, and the
necessity of calling a meeting of his creditors, she
immediately wrote to him with an offer of the loan
of the whole of her fortune unconditionally, and
with the smallest possible reserve of her own im
mediate wants. It appears that Lamartine was
touched at this proof of generosity, that he imme
diately set out to throw himself at the feet of his
benefactress. Believing that such unsought interest
could have its mainspring in one sentiment alone,
he chivalrously resolved to make an offer of his
hand and heart. The pair were soon after married,
the fortune of the bride amply repairing every
breach which youthful extravagance had made in
that of her husband. She is remarkable for her
religious enthusiasm, and is ”ery popular with the
priest, from whose influence, it is said Lamartine
has derived a good deal of support. —Boston Trans

Progress of the Soul.
We wonder, indeed, when we are told that one
day we shall be as the angels of God. I apprehend
that as great a wonder has been realized already on
the earth. I apprehend that the distance between
the mind of Newton and a Hottentot, may have
been as great as between Newton and an angel.
There is another view still more striking. This
Newton, who lifted his calm, sublime eye to the
heavens, and read, among the planets and the stars,
the great law of the material universe, was, forty
or fifty years before, an infant, without one clear
perception, and unable to distinguish his nurse's
arm from the pillow on which he slept. Howard,
too, who, under the strength of an all-sacrificing
benevolence, explored the depth of human suffer
ing, was, fo riy or fifty years before, an infant, whol
ly absorbed in himself grasping at all he saw. and
almost breaking his little heart with fits ot passion
when the idlest toy was withheld. Has not rnan
already traversed as wide a space as separates him
from angels?
Newspapers.
A man eats up a pound of sugar, and the -plea
sure he enjoyed has ended; but the information he
gets from a newspaper is treasured up in the mind,
to be enjoyed anew, and to be used whenever occa
sion or inclination callsffor it. A newspaper is not
the wisdom of one man, or two men; it is the wis
dom of the age, and ol past ages too.
A family without a newspaper, is always half
an age behind the times in general information,
besides they never think much or find -much to
think about. And there are the little ones grow
ing up in ignorance, without any taste for reading.
Besides all these evils, there's the. wife, who,
when her work is done, has to sit down with hands
in her lap, and nothing to amuse her mind from
the toils and cares of the domestic circle. Who
then would be without a newspaper? —Benjamin
Franklin! . .

Dr. Franklin’s Opinion of’ Luck.
THE astonishing auccoss of JOS. GORMELY,
in the CLOTHING BUSINESS, excites the
surprise of some and the envy and jealousy of
others His unparalleled success some attribute
to one cause, and some to another* And some,
more envious than the rest, attribute it to any cause
that best suits their purposes, no matter how unjust,
or how foul the misrepresentations. Again, there
is another class more easily satisfied, and content
themselves by saying—“ Well, it is all luck—better
to be born lucky than rich. Born under a lucky
planet,” &c, “ Pshaw says Dr. Franklin, of luck,
all the luck Fkiiow of is in proper managejnent.”
Precisely so, Dr., and just the operating cause in
the 'extensive business done at the great LANCAS
TER HALL OF FASHIONS. The only eecret in
this large business,, and the only reason that it of
large, is because lie is careful in the selection is
good materials, and has all his goods well made —
and then the fit ol his garments cannot be surpassed;
and are sold at prices that defy competition. This
is the cause of his astonishing success at the great'
LANCASTER HALL OF FASHIONS, N. Queen

and the National House. [May 9, ’48.-tf-15.
