VOL. XLIX Select Jpoetrg. BE-UNION IN HEAVEN. If yon bright stars which gem the night, Be each a blissful dwelling sphere, Where kindred spirits re-unite* Whom death has torn asunder here How sweet it were at once to die, And leave this blighted orb afar, And soul meet soul to cleave the sky, And soar away from star to star. But 0, how dark, how drear, and lone, . Would seem the brightest world of bliss, If wandering through each radiant one, We failed to find the loved.of this ; If there no more the ties shall twine, That death’s cold hand alone could sever; Ah ! then these stars in mockery shine, More hateful as they shine forever. It cannot be —each hope, each fear, That lights the eye, or clouds the brow, Proclaims there is a happier sphere Than this bleak world that holds us now ; There is a voice which sorrow hears, When heaviest weighs life’s galling chain, ’Tis Heaven that whispers-j-dry thy tears, The pure in heart shall meet again. From the N. Y. Tribune. The Peasant’s- Prayer, Almighty God! and is it just, — Is it Thy holy will, That lords should waste our land’s produce ; While starving peasants till ? That they in wine and vile debauch, Should Erin’s wealth apply; While we, who earn it wearily, Famish for food—and die ? Thou art the friend of the oppressed, The guardian of the poor ; And wilt Thou not,o God ! avenge The wrongs that we endure ! Father ! shall Famine waste our land, And fever blight our isle 1 Till every foot on Erin’s shore Shall be a fun’ral pile: Oh ! shall it be forever thus? . May we not hope for good, — Shall Erin’s sons be ever slaves, Their children pine for food ? “ Forbid it’ God ! the famine stay, Our isle from tyrants free : 'Give to our suffering people bread ; To Erin, Liberty! Jfliacrllcutmts. A Domestic Sketcl>. 111 MRS.* LYDIA Jl. SIGOURNEY. It is the duty of mothers to sustain the reverses of fortune. Frequent and sudden as they have been to our own country, it is important that young females should possess some employment by which they might obtain a livelihood, in case they should be reduced to the necessity of support ing themselves. When lamilies axe unexpectedly reduced from affluence to poverty, how pitifully contemptible it is to see the mother desponding or helpless, and permitting her daughters to embarrass those whom it is their duty to assist and cheer. “I have lost my whole fortune,” said a merchant} as he returned one evening to his home; “we can no longer keep our carriage. We must leave this large house. The children can no longer go to expensive schools. Yesterday I was a rich man— tonday there is nothing I can call my own.” “Dear husband,” said the wife, “we are still rich in each other and our children. Money may pass away, but God has given us a better treasure in those active hands and loving hearts. “Dear father,” said the children, “do not look so sober. We will help you get a living.” “-What can you do, poor things?” said he. “You shall see, you shall see,” answered several cheerful voices. “It is a pity if we have been to school for nothing. How can the father of eight children be poor. We shall work and make you rich again.”, “1 shall help,” said tly* youngest girl, hardly four years old. “I will not have any new things bought, and I shall sell my great doll.” The heart of the husband and father, which had sunk within his bosom like a stone, was lifted up. The sweet enthusiasm of the scene cheered him, and his nightly prayer was like a song of praise. They left the stately house. The servants were dismissed. Pictures and plate, rich carpet and fur niture were sold, and she who had been mistress of the mansion shed no tears. “Pay every debt/' said she, “ let no one suffer through us, we may yet be happy.” He rented a neat cottage and a small piece ot ground a few miles from the city. With the aid of his sons he cultivated vegetables for the market. He viewed with delight and astonishment the economy of his wife, nurtured, as she had been, in wealth, and the efficiency which his daughters soon acquired under her training. The eldest one assisted her in the work of the household, and also instructed the younger children. Beside, they executed various- works which they had learned as accomplishments, but which they found could be disposed of to advantage. They eiribroidered with taste some of the ornamental parts of female apparel, which were readily sold to a merchant in the city. They cultivated flowers, and sent boquets to market in the cart that conveyed the vegetables— they plaited straw, they painted maps, they ex ecuted plain needle-work. Every one was at her post, busy and cheerful. The cottage was like a bee-hive. “I never enjoyed such health before,” said the “And I never was so happy before,” said the ‘‘We never knew how many things we could do when we lived in a great house,” said the children, "and we love each other a great deal better here. You call us your little bees.” “Yes,” replied the father, “and you make just such honey as the heart likes to feed on. ’ Economy as well as industry was strictly ob served; nothing was wasted. Nothing unneces sarily purchased. The eldest:, daughter became assistant teacher in a distinguished female semi nary, and the second took her place as instructress to the family. The little dwelling, which had always been kept neat, they were soon able to beautify. Its con struction ’Was improved, and the vines and flower ing4rees were replanted around it. The merchant was happier under his woodbine covered porch, in-a summer’s evening, thamhe in his showy dressing-room.. are now thriving and prosperous,” saicLhe, 41 shall we return to the city?” 44 Oh, no, no,” was the unanimous reply. > “Let us remain,” said the wife, “where we have found health and contentment” “Father,” said the youngest, “all we children hope you are not going to be rich again—for then we little ones were shut: up in the nursery, and did not see much of you or mother. Now we all live together, and sister, who loves us, teaches us, and we learn to be industrious and useful. We were none of' us happy when we were rich, and did not work. So, father, please don’t be a rich man any The Paris Beggars. They trot along the crowded streets in a shuffling gait, in their dirty blouses, and look into the shop -windows as if they had fully imbibed the precept of M. Prudhom, I: that’property is a robbery.”— They bear themselves as if the time was near at hand lor that social "redemption" of which Louis Blanc italks as irreverently as flippantly. They look you in the face with a scowl of defiance that makes you tremble. Yonder, now, a stout man upon the corner, takes off his dirty cap to a lady who is passing—she gives him nothing; he grinds his teeth, and claps his cap upon his head with an emphatic action. Such is the beggar now-a-days in Paris! The women are no better; indeed they are more open in their threats. Only last evening a gentleman and lady upon the Boulevard, below me, were beset by a stout w*t&nan, who would not cease from her importunities; at length the gentle man hinted at finding the'police: “And you, sir," said the woman, "shall find the barricades again." You will hardly be prepared to believe the fact, yet it is, unfortunately, true, that thousands of the malcontents look upon the triumph of their syste matic oppressors; as a re-establishment of tyranny, as odious to them as that of the late regal dynasty. The National Guard, the army, and all the lovers of order are regarded as aristocrats, who are leagued into a system oppression. They look • for an escape for them, only by exterminating them. And there are those, better informed, who are yet dastardly enough to encourage such delu sions; they talk of an approaching triumph of the people—or their ultimate victory over the aris tocracy. Universal suffrage, and free discussions, are become valueless; they look for such thorough equalization as shall be belie all precedent, and all previous decisions of human reason. With such teachers to encourage, it is by no means strange that beggars should threaten. Beautiful Extract. Oh, if there is one law above the rest Written in wisdom —if there is a word That I would trace as with a pen of fire Upon th’ unsullied temper of a child — If there is anything that keeps the mind ♦ Open to angel-visits, and-repels The ministry of ill —'tis human love. God has made.nothing worthy of contempt: The smallest pebble in the well of truth Has its peculiar meanings, and will stand When man’s best monuments wear fast away. The law of Heaven is love , and tho’ its name Has been usurped by passion, and profan’d To its unholy uses through all time, Still, the eternal principle is pure ; And in these deep affections that we feel Omnipotent within us, can we see • The lavish measure in which love is given. And in the yearning tenderness of a child For every bird that sings above its head, And every creature feeding on the hills, And every tree and flower and running brook. We see how every thing was made to love, And how they err who in a world like this Find any thing to hate but human pride. A Good Plan’s Life* The beauty of "a holy life constitutes the most eloquent and efficient persuasive to religion, which one human being can address to another. We have many ways of doing good to our fellow-crea tures; but none so efficacious as leading a virtuous, upright, and well-ordered life. There is an energy of moral suasion in a good man's life, passing the highest efforts of the orator’s genius. The seen but silent beauty of holiness, speaks more elo" quently of God and duty than the tongues of men and angels. Let parents remember this. The best inheritance a parent can bequeath to a child is a virtuous example, a legacy of hallowed remem brances and associations! The beauty of holiness beaming through the life of a loved relative or friend, is more effectual to strengthen such as do stand in virtue's way, and raise up those that are bowed down, than precept, command, entreaty or warning. Christianity, itself, I believe, owes by far the greater part’to its moral power, not to the precepts or parables ot Christ, but to his own char- The beauty of that holiness which is en shrined in the four brief biographies of the Man of Nazareth, has done more, and will do more, to re generate the world and bring in an everlasting righteousness, than all the other agencies put to gether. It has done more to make his religion of the human heart, than all that has ever been ; preached or written on the Chris tianity. Profanity. —There is nothing in our estimation so degrading to the character of a man, as the use of profane oaths—it lessens his dignity in the eyes of all who come in contact with him, and is indica tive of a coarse and vulgar mind. “To swear is neither brave, polite or wise,” is a true adage, and should be borne in mind by such as are addicted to profanity. It is heart-rending to the “virtuous part of our community, to hear the blasphemous ex- that emanate from the mouths of men who wear the exterior of gentlemen—but more withering is it to hear the horrid oaths that spring from the tongues of many of the lads who peram bulate the streets. Hear the Father of His Coun try, the illustrious Washington: “The foolish and wicked practice of profane swearing and cursing, it is so mean: and low, that every person of sense and character destests and despises it.” Don't ltSe his Looks. —A sheriff's officer was sent to execute a writ against a Quaker. On ar riving at the; house he saw the Quaker’s wife, who, in reply to the inquiry whether her husband was at home, replied in the affirmative, at the same time requesting him to be seated; and her husband would speedily see him. The officer waited patiently for some time, but the lair quakeress coming into the room, he reminded her of her promise that he should see her husband. “Nay, friend, I promised that he would see thee. He has seen thee! He did not like thy looks; therefore he avoided thy path and has left the house by another path.” TRUE WEALTH, The way to make thy son rich is, to fill His mind with rest, before his trunk with riches, For wealth* without'contentment, climbs a hill, To feel the tempests which fly over ditches. But if thy son can make ten times his measure, Then all thou addeat may be called his treasure. THAT COUNTRY IS THE .MOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD.

THE astonishing success 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.
