THE GIFT OF A ROSE
BY G. D. PEENTICE
I send theo, Mary, a sweet young rose,
That bright with the hues of the sunset glows ;
Its beauty, alas! is frail and brief,
It will come to thee with a withered leaf;
But the fervent kis3 that my earnest lips
Have left for thee on its crimson tips
Will not from the fading flower depart,
But come all fresh to thy lips and heart;
For oh ! ’tis a breath of the love and trust
That will live when our lips and bur hearts are dust.
Mary, dear Mary, pray love this flower,
Let it have for thy heart a spell of power;
For I plucked it fresh from its lovely stalk,
On the blooming edge of that garden walk
Where we strayed together, so deeply blest,
When the sun was low in the golden west
And murmured our loves in burning words,
With none to hear but the flowers and birds;
And lingered long on the dear sweet spot,
While our warm hearts kissed, though our lips did
not.
Mary, dear Mary, my thoughts still cleave
To each memory sweet of that blessed eve,
To each tone more dear than the sweetest lute,
To each vow, wo breathed when our lips were mute,
To the wild, deep thrill through each trembling
frame,
From fingers warmed with a pulse of flame,
To each gentle tear, to oach gentlo sob,
To each sigh that told of the heart’s deep throb ;
Ay, these memories dwell in this soul of mine—
Oh! Mary dear, do they live in thine ?
Mary, dear Mary, I pray thee say,
Po the roses bloom where thy steps now stray !
Do they look as morn on the sky’s soft blue,
Through the trembling tears of the early dew ?
When I come to thee, will they smile to greet
Thy lover’s steps with their fragrance sweet?
Will they list at eve to our tender vows#
Will they weave their wreaths for our gentlo brows ?
And when at last we are doomed to part,
Will thoy breathe a sigh for each breaking heart ?
Mary, dear Mary, I fain would know,
Do thy heart’s sweet flowers keop their fresh young
glow V
Are their eyes yet turned on the skies above ?
Do they glitter still with the dews of love ?
Has no blighting frost, has no bitter blast,
Cold, cold, o’er their buds and their blossoms past ?
If my namo is said, are their loaves yet stirred
To the oldon thrill at the cherished word ?
And say, oh, say, will those dear heart-flowers
Still bloom for me in Eden bowers?
THE KANSAS QUESTION.
SPEECH OP SENATOR BIGLER.
It is not my intention, Mr. President, to
spepk to the mere proposition to print the
message and documents ; nor do I intend,
to-day, to attempt to address the Senate
at length on the grave and difficult subject
which has been unhappily precipitated
upon this body. I never felt so muoh re
sponsibility in my life.’ I never felt a
greater anxiety to do my duty. Never
since I have been connected with public
affairs have I desired in my whole soul so
muoh to do what would jßst be best for
this great country. I feel my weakness,
and how much I regrot the suggestion I
made yesterday evening that I concurred
with the President of the United States in
the views he had taken and should endea
vor to defend those views, for I now feel
how much lam unprepared. But while I
shall not make a speech to-day, I desire
very briefly to notice some of the proposi
tions of my friend from Illinois, which
have fallen on my ears as most extraordi
nary.
It would be necessary, Mr. President
to a fair understanding of this question,
to trace its history, and nothing have I
regretted so much as that the Senator from
Illinois did not stop in the first instance to
look at this question in its true character.
Still more am I pained with the remem
brance that his feelings were not such as
I had hoped they would be on a question
so delicato and so dangerous, which he has
labored so long and arduously to allay.
Sir, 1 do not think it is entirely the part
of a statesman to handle this question as
though each particular yiew which he may
hold can be distinctly carried out. The
question should occur to his mind, what
is best for the country under all the cir
cumstances ? It will not do"to show to
me fhat the constitutional convention has
been guilty of sins of omission or commis
sion on the one hand, or that of the
Topeka movement was without authority of
law and in derogation of the authority of
the United States Government on the
other. I look at this question as it is be
fore us, in a spirit of concession and com
promise, and, I trust, that measures of
patriotism which will embrace all the
States of this Union and the interests and
rights of all the people, and inquire what
shall we do 1
Has my friend from Illinois persuaded
himself that, with the present state of
feeling in the Territory of Kanaas it is
possible to have any measure carried out
with precision and order ? Are there no
reasons to apprehend strife, and confusion,
and violation of principle there 1 Has he
any guarantee that whatever action Con
gress may take will secure a peaceful ex
ercise of the elective franchise there to the
entire inhabitants of that Territory 1 What
is there in the history of Kansas to bring
him to the conclusion that either party in
power there will wield that power with
moderation 1 I have long since abandoned
that idea, and I have persuaded myself
that patriotism and duty would require
that Kansas should be admitted into the
Union on the first allowable opportunity,
for the sake of Kansas and the Union.—
From the day that Senator offered his bill
in this Hall in 1854, to this hour, he has
never witnessed tbe same measure of com
plication in the affairs of that Territory,
or the same menacing aspect to the coun
try.
The extraordinary things in the Sena-
tor’s remarks that occurred to my mind
are these: the importance that he attached
to so mu*h of the Kansas Nebraska bill as
deolares that the people shall be left per
fectly free to select their own domestic
institutions. Will the Senator from Illi-
nois contend that the people of Kansas are
to look to that act for their right to form
their ordinary institutions? Will he tell
me that the Missouri line interposed
against any of those rights, or that the
repeal of it enlarged them or affected them
in any possible way ? Certainly noti The
Missouri line had reference to slavery
alone. His act of 1854 had reference to
the institution of slavery only. It is that,
and that alone, which has agitatejd the
country. It is that to which we have had
reference mainly when speaking of the
rights of the people of that Territory. —
That dangerous and agitating question it
was whioh constrained the wisest men who
have ever assembled in this Chamber, in 1
1850, to agree that this dangerous issue j
should be taken from Congress and Jjgiven
to the people. However that great fact j
may be obscured by logic, however it may j
be beclouded by a mass of—l shall not say
subterfuge or technicality, but I may say
special pleading —the great truth is before
the people of the United States thit that
is the only question to which we have not
had reference in all this long struggle.—
What I have desired, and what E have
thought would be conclusive, was that we
should have from the people of Kansas
such an embodied expression as jjwould 1
give us their will on that subjeot. Jj
1 certainly concur with the President of j
the United States in that part of hijj mes
sage in which he says he Would pre
ferred that the whole constitution should
be submitted to the people ; but tlije con
vention —exercising what he has conceded
(to be their right, to make a constitipn and
send it to Congress —submitted only the
slavery question. I do not say that the
whole of that constitution would haye been
adopted or rejected, but I can sayjto the
Senator from Illinois that 1 was jjin the
Territory before the delegates werej elect
ed, and for nearly a month afterwards, and
1 think I know some circumstances] which
influenced the action of the people. I
know what was said on the one side and
on the other side from the rostrum, for I
heard it. I heard the advocates ijof the
Topeka movement say to the men who pro
posed to form a constitution under the
laws of the Territory, “We will no!: judge
of any instrument you may submit; we
will not consider its merits at all.” ; Why!
“ Because we are determined that tl e laws,
which the President of the United States
has said shall be carried out, shall jjhe ren
dered null and void. Governor IjiValker
has told us that these laws are finding,
and that the convention has been )legally
convened; we do not subscribe to that
doctrine ; we will therefore accept no form
of government from a bogus convention.”
I heard more than one of them say that
even if the convention would give jo them
the Topeka Constitution, word for word,
and letier for letter, they would irample
it in the dust, because they deniedijthe au
thority of the law which the President of
the United States was administering there.
However unwisely members of contention
may have acted—and I,do not intend to
defend the details of their action !j by any
means —it will not do to say that there
were no surrounding to im
pel them to such action., Probably if the
liepublicans had the power at that hour,
they would have wielded it quite] as un
warrantably. The declarations tcj which
I have referred naturally begot retaliation.
The answer was, “If you will not judge of
this instrument why should it be submitted
to you V’ j|
Now, air, I will say to the Senator from
Illinois, in defense of his friend, tlfe presi
dent of the convention, whose idolj he has
almost been, that in all my intercourse
with him I never heard from himjjan un
reasonable or an unfair suggestion on the
subject. He did say, and he did write,
that he would agree to a submission of the
constitution to the people; but when he
was told, “ we will not judge of this,” his
views were different. He told mp to say
to the President of the United States that
if this spirit was persisted in, if they were
to be broken down simply togiveithe pow
er to their enemies and not because the
constitution was a bad one, he would not be
bound to submit it. He held that under
the organic act and according to the com
mon understanding of the counfry, they
were under an obligation to submit the
slavery clauses. That they did not sub
mit it in a proper form I agree, jit ought
to have been, one way or the other, dis
tinctly. They might have withheld the
constitution entirely and avoid thfe difficul
ty which the Senator raises as ti| force a
seeming assent.to the constitution. That,
however, is somewhat of a theoretical diffi
culty, for I never heard any issuaj in Kan
sas, nor will the Senator hear any serious
issue there, as to the main features of the
constitution. The virtue of the submission
is that is that it withholds the constitution
except that portion which relates tg slavery.
The Senator is perfectly aware| that as
late as 1849, when a constitution jWas fomr
med for Illinois, the same monsttous out
rage upon popular sovereignty was prac
tised, for a portion of that constitution was
put into operation without being Submitted
to the people. j
He was the able advocatj; of Mr.
Toombs’ bill, which did not emanate from
the people of Kansas. They didj not dele
gate their sovereignty in the firstSnstanee ;
they were not consulted at all; jthey had
not petitioned for it ■ and yet th& Senator
advocated and voted for. that bill. It pro
vided for an election of delegates, named
the time and place, and called together a
convention to whom the people jof Kansas
were to delegate their sovereignty. It did
more, sir. It put that constitution into
operation without ever consulting the peo
ple of Kansas. If the Senator’s feelings
had been awakened at that timejas to the
peculiar rights of the people of Kansas he
never could have voted for Mai. Toombs’
bill. That was non-intervention—very
peculiar, however. I was unwilling, as I
remember, in the first instance, to go for a
measure of that kind, because I thought it
contravened the principle of non-interven
tion. I
Now, if I understand rightly; the posi
tion of the Senator from Illinois; it comes
down to this ; although the constitution of
Kansas, when presented, may be fepublicau;
though there may be in it no Insurmoun
table objection ; though it may t|e a reason
able instrument, made by competent au
thority, in accordance with law jjind in the
proper form, Kansas shall not Jcome into
the Union because this right thjng was not
done though a particular process. Is that
consistent with the doctrine of npn-inteven
tion 1 I deny the right of Congress to go
behind the organic act, and eplquire into
all the details of how the of Kansas
have proceeded; but when Kansas presents
herself for admission at the doors of Con
gress with a republican constitution, form
ed in order, according to law, tie Senator
from Illinois is about to say to 1 those peo
ple, you shall not come into j the Union
“THAT OOUNTBY 18 THB HOST PROSPEROUS WHEBE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD.”—BUCHANAN.
LANCASTER CITY, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 22, 1857.
because you did not do this right thing in
the proper way. Sir, when the question
involves the peace of the whole country,
and, as I know, the prosperity of Kansas,!
will uot be pledged to say any such thing ;
but if the measure is right in itself, and if
I can see that it imposes no great future
wrong on the people of Kansas, in view of
the peculiar circumstances which surround
the case, the difficulty of getting any prop
erly administered there, the danger of
leaving the question open, I will, so far as
I have the power, assist to throw wide open
the portals of the Union and welcome Kan
sas as a State, thus settling this bitter
family feud forever.
Sir, I do not intend to follow the subjeot
further to-day. I thought, however, that
the positions of the Senator from Illinois
were so peculiarly forced that, though en
tirely unprepared. I should not after the
intimation I had given, do justioe'to myself
if, I should dave allowed those remarks to
pass unnoticed.
THE BRIEAIi;
Or, The Cliff of Death.
B Y WM. R. HAYDEN
In the northern part of Germany stands
an old pile of buildings known as Marl’s
castle, of which the following story is re
lated : <
Many years agq it was inhabited by the
noble Count Westcl, who had bttrothed
his daughter, much against her will, to Sir
Hubert Kandrof ; but let us return in fancy
back some hundred years, and witness the
scenes which were enacted there.
“ Weep not, dear Marion, for you may
yet be happy, though you wed not Walter.
I think Sir Hubert loves, and will be kind
to you.”
. “ Loves, Gertrude, he knows not love,
for it is a passion that comes from Heaven,
and will not mate with aught but its own
kindred spirit. His bosom is filled with
hate—his passion is evil or he.would not
seek posession of that which belongs to
another; but know, girl, that .1 would
sooner die than become the wife of Sir
Hubert.”
This was said by a beautiful girl who
was robed in satin, with flowers in her
hair, and oostly brilliants decked her snowy
neck. It was the eve of her bridal, but as
the last words fell from her lips, her dark
flashing eyes told that there was a fire
kindled in her soul that nothing but love
could quench.
“ You forgot that your father has re
solved that you must this night marry Sir
Hubert, and even now the castle is crowd
ed with guests; and hark I —the notes of the
bugle announce the approach of the bride
groom to claim his bride,” said Gertrude,
as the music broke forth on the evening
air.
“ Let him come; but when he carries
me forth he shall only convey dust to dust;
for come what will, I have solemnly sworn
in life or in death, to- be Walter’s only ;
and this little poignard shall still the beat
ing heart and set the imprisoned spirit free
ere I break the vow which has been regis
tered in the bright abodes above.”
Nay, my dear mistress, talk not thus
wildly, your father’s heart would break at
the loss of you, the only surviving heir to
his princely name and estate. Sir Hubert
is rich, and belongs to a long line of no
bles, while Walter is but a poor hunter.”
“ ’Tis false ! Walter is not poor ; his
heart is rich in all the noble qualities that
take to make up a man, and I would a
thousand times rather pass my life with
him on his mountains where he is lord and
king, than amid all the mockery and pomp
by which we are surrounded. But time
speeds, and we must devise some means
of escape.”
“It is impossible, sweet lady; every
entrance and outlets are guarded by the
servants, and we could not pass out with
out being discovered. But mercy on us,
how' the heavy thunder rolls over our
heads and the quick flashes of lightning
are almost blinding.”
“ Look, Gertrude—do you not see some
thing in yonder grove ?”
“ Nay—it is dreadful dark,” replied
Gertrude.
Wait until the next flash of lightning
and then see if you cannot discern a horse
and rider in the northern grove.”
“Ah yes, —I see him ; he advances
waving his hand for you to come to him.”
“ Yes, it is he—it is Walter ! he comes
to rescue me, but how can I fly to him V’
“ There is no way.”
“ Then I will leap from the window.”
“ It would be instant death.”
“ Then indeed I shall be free, which
would be better than thus remaining a pris
oner and becoming the wife of the cold
hearted wretch who even now awaits the
unwilling sacrifice.”
“ I implore you kind lady, do not throw
yourself from the window—aid may yet
reach' us ; but look—he has stolen softly
beneath the window and is attempting to
throw a silken ladder.”
“ Thank Heaven, I shall yet escape ;
fasten the doors, for even now I hear foot
steps —they come for me. Lower some
thing down so we may draw it up.”
In a few moments they had fastened the
ladder safely, and Marion descended from
the perilous height, and was clasped in the
arms of her faithful Walter.
“ Come love, lose not a moment—let
us fly or we shall be pursued and overta
ken. My Mountain Bird is at hand and
and will bear us away with the speed
of the wind to a safe retreat, where
the foot of no man save myself has ever
trod, and where they will be unable to
reach us ; say will you go with me 1”
“Yes, Walter—wherever thou wilt, 1
will go.”
“ Ah, bless thee, Mariou, but we have
no time for sweet words, let us haste to
mount and be gone.”
Lifting her lightly into tko saddle, he
sprang on to the of a noble animal
who was black as the iuky night, and im
patient to bound way. At this moment a
bright flash of lightning revealed to them
the forms of Sir Hubert and her father
looking from her window, who observed
them and the cry of ‘ to horse,’ resounded
through the castle, and in a few moments
thirty horsemen were in their saddles and
following in hot pursuit; Sir Hubert and
her father, the Count leading them on the
direction the lovers had taken.
“ Ten thousand thalers to him who
shall overtake them and bring my daughter
safe, and five thousand more for the head
of the villain Walter Marl.”
On flew the pursued and pursuers, until
they approached a mighty oliff, near the
dark waters which lashed madly against
the rooks. There was but one path to the
°water, and that was down the baok of the
cliff which rose frowningly, and then de
scended in a gentle Blope to the river.—
But there was a frightful gulf between the
cliff and the main land, which must be
leaped ere the cliff was reached. Walter’s
well trained animal had frequently made
the desperate leap, and with one powerful
bound he cleaoed the awful chasm, but on
the brink he staggered—trembled,—for a
moment it was uncertain whether he would
not sink back into the yawning abyss be
hind. But the horse regaining his bal
ance sprung back and was safe. The pur
suers observing that the horse had cleared
it in safety, with two on his back, had no
fear for their own steeds, and rushed on
with eager haste, each one hoping to gain
the promised reward. Putting spurs to
their horses they attempted to leap the
gulf, but out of the thirty, four only suc
ceeded, the rest sunk in the dark chasm to
rise no more.
By this time Walter had reached the
water, and placing Marion in a boat, and
fastening a strong oord to it he led his
noble animal into the water. Mounting
him and holding on to the cord, he was
soon on the opposite shore. The four re
maining pursuers attempted to ford the
river, but their horses being untrained, and
not taking a correct course, they were car
ried into the whirlpool and lost, with the
exception of Sir Hubert, whose powerful
steed bore him in safety to the shore.—
The clouds had now oleared away, and the
moon was shining brightly, revealing the
lovers and Sir Hubert in pursuit.
“ Dear Marion,” said Walter, “they
have all found open graves, save one who
seems to have been more successful than
the rest; and in his foul-heartedness pur
sues us with relentless fury. It shall
never be said that Walter Marl fled from a
single foe ; therefore, let us await the ap
proach of him who thus madly seeks his
own destruction.” f
“ Stay, fleeing miscreant, for though you
have escaped the thunderbolt of Heaven—
the rugged cliffs, deep chasms, and the
dark flood, yet you shall not esoape from
my good sword and renenge, for know, ca
tiff, that I am your rival, Sir Hubert Kan
drof, and in an hour honce, you shall lay
in the waters from which you have just
escaped, and the lady Marion, shall be my
reward.
“ Slay thy boasting, and meet the doom
thou hast pronounced on others,” and their
bright swords met in the terrible conflict.
Waller pressed hard upon him, until he
had retreated to the water, and then with
a sudden movement, he thrust his sword
into the body of Sir Hubert, up to the hilt,
and drawing it forth, he pushed the body
into the stream, where it sunk, coloring the
water with gore. Then turning to the
affrighted Marion, Walter pressed her to
his heart and said :
“ Now, my own sweet love, you are
mine, and none can claim the hand which
I have so hardly won ; but so rich a prize
were worth a thausand battles. To-night
then, come with me to my mountain home,
and with the morrow’s sun, wo will return
to your father’s castle, and claim your
rights.”
The approving look of her own sweet
eyes was all the response he required, und
pressing his lipß to those of the beautiful
girl, he'sought bis secret abode, and the
next morning returned to tbeoastle, where
he wedded the Lady Marion, and lived
many years in happiness.
Since that time, a bridge has been con
structed across the river, and the traveller
has still pointed out to him the Cliff of
Death,’or the Lover’s Rock.

LXX-A’S GRAVE.
BY MILLER D. EVANS.
One summer eve, when the soft rays of
the gentle Moon were playing o’er mead
and thro’ dell, and the plaintive notes of the
“ Whip-poor-Will ” sounded a mournful
requiem over departed day, I sat, thinking
ing and dreaming, by the side of Lila’s
grave. It was a bright spot, and one well
suited to the angel form that slept the sleep
that knows no waking, ’neath the sod that
smiled in its summer robe. Close by mur
mured a tiny rivulet, that warbled softly
as it flowed by the resting place of the
departed, and the wavelets that sparkled
in the' moonlight, seemed to shade their
brightness, as if in grateful memory of her
who would gaze on them no more. The
time, place, and objects around, harmon
ized with the feelings that filled my breast,
and my thoughts wandered back to other
scenes and other times. In fancy, I sat
by the old cottage, around whose walls the
merry laughter of Lila oft had sounded,
and I once more seemed to press her hands
within my own. The mellow tones of her
voice again were heard, as the story of her
youthful love was told—pure, trusting,
angel love—and the kiss that sealed our
vows is as warm now upon my lips as when
it first was given. When all was joy and
happiness —the bird that flitted thro’ the
azure of Heaven, without one thought to
cloud its pleasure, was not happier than
Lila and I in the possession of each other’s
love. But a change “ came over the
spirit of the dream”—-remorseless death
claimed her as his own. One mild after
noon in September, just as the sun was
shedding his “ good night ” rays over val
ley and stream, the spirit of Lila, attended
by angel forms, soared upward to the home
where death finds no entrance, and where
sadness ne’er is found. • I wept then—l
could not restrain my tears —it was my
first sorrow ; and tho’ it is as bright as
ever on memory’s tablet, yet the thought
that but a few years separate me
from her I love so fondly, has softened the
poignancy of my grief. The world cannot
present as bright a hope, the mind cannot
conceive of one more glorious than that
which is extended from the throne of Na
ture’s God, of everlasting joy and happi
ness—a hope that lights the Christian’s
heart with heavenly radianoe even in the
darkest hour of sorrow. To gain such a
resting place when the “ fitful dream ” of
life is over, is well worthy of a life-time
devoted to the service of our King and
Father—a home where we shall meet those
whom death has separated from us here, to
live with them thro’ unending years of
purest bliss. Suoh were the thoughts that
thronged my brain as I gazed on the grave
of her who was dearer to me than all oth
ers—the Lila of my youthful dreams, and
fervent and sincere was the wish of my
heart, tfjat they might all be fully realized
when time shall be no more.

I’LL THINK OF THEE
I’ll think of thee, my gentle friend,
Although thou’rt far away,
A prayer to God above I’ll send
That, in His holy sway,
He’ll shield thee from dark sorrow’s might,
And guard thee on thy way !
I’ll think of thee, thou cherished one,
Think of our student days,
Passed in the sacred old school house
Where first I learned to praise
Thy modest beauty, and thy worth
In Friendship’s truthful lays !
I’ll think of thee, as when we roamed
O’er sunny hill and glade,
With lore and gladness in our hearts, —
Those happy scenes, which made
This lone earth radiant with light,
Light, destined soon to fade!
I’ll think of thee, even though the thought
Bids tears of sorrow start—
Sorrow, that we may ne’er again
Meet, nevermore to part.
Farewell! thy image will remain
Forever in my heart!
Providence Twp., December, 1857.
7EB QUA EBB. FATRXOT.
BY ARCHOLA.
Throughout the land sounded the loud
summons —to arms ! Hundreds of our
countrymen were flocking to the standard
thrown boldly to the breeze, by those
leaders whom the minions of the King
had denominated ‘ Rebels.’ The battle of
Bunker Hill, with all its honors, was fresh
in the minds of the daring few who had
staked their lives, fortunes, and sacred
honor in their country’s cause—yet no
feeling of intimidation came to the breast
of a single man, for all felt that they had
a personal interest in the struggle. The
bar, the pulpit, the factory, the farm—all
contributed their stalwart sons to do bat
tle for the right. Age formed no exemp
tion! Youth assumed the powers of man
hood, and joined the tide setting towards
the bloody field. There was but one class
that seemed to be regarded as non-oom
batative. They were the ‘ Friends ’ or
‘ Quakers.’
Peletiah Payne had settled in early life
upon a farm in the town of Cold Spring,
Long Island. Here he had married, and
here he had seen falling from his side, one
by one, the children God had given him,
until, in his old age, he stood alone with
the partner of his youth and maturer years,
a childless man. He was one of the
leaders in the Society of Friends—and in
a pure worship of His Master his days were
drawing to an honorable end.
Th(f messengers of Washington, who
was then supposed to be near at hand,
were flying through that section, and call
ing recruits to join him. Old Payne stood
at his gate-way as the Courier approached.
“ What news from the oamp ?” he in-
quired.
“ The enemy is growing more formida
ble daily,” was the reply, as the rider drew
up his panting steed, “ and we are seeking
men in every direction. Pity you hadn’t
a son to represent you in the struggle!”
The aged Quaker bowed his head, as the
memory of his lost ones was thus rudely
awakened.
“But you are a ‘Friend,’ continued the
courier ; and don’t believe in resistance.”
“ Who says that Peletiah Payne, does
not advocate resistance to oppression ?”
cried the old man with animation. “ Who
can charge him with the baseness of inac
tion, when the foes of his country stand
at the threshold of that oountry’s honor 1
I am a Friend, in the sense that thee puts
upon the word, but I am no friend to the
enemies of my native land.”
“I am glad to hear you say so ! I would
that youth and strength were yours ! As
it is, we are e’en grateful for your good
wishes.” The courier rode onward upon
his mission.
« Yosth and strength !” soliloquized the
Quaker. “ Ay, I would they were mine,
indeed! But they have left me, as a
withered tree, almost useless ! Yet not
so! Why may I not join the forceß of
Washington 1 Why not stand beside my
neighbors ? My wife ! Yet she will
not bid me pause ! We must see ! —we
must see!” The gate was closed, and Mr.
Payne retired to the duties of his farm.
Gloriously and bright arose the sun on
the succeeding morning, as our Quaker
friend led his horse, already saddled, to the
gate. At the same moment his wife oame
from the house bearing a gun. With tear
ful eyes she handed the weapon to her
husband as she said :
“ May that God who has watched over '
thee and me, be with thee still, and if it
be his will to return thee to me ”
Sobs choked her utterance. The old
man stooped from his saddle and imprinted
a kiss upon her upturned cheek.
“ And what matters it, Judith, whether
I return or not. Better to die in such a
struggle, than live for years in the recol
lection that I bore no hand in the contest.
Be of good cheer! I will return if
spared! If not, thee will be proud to
know that I fell in my country’s service !
Cheer up, wife ! God bless thee !
Onward to the fight rode the noble man.
Joining the leader he had come to meet,
he bore bravely and well his position in
the front of battle. O’er many an ensan-
guined field he strode with others to con
quest, and no one amid the dauntless host
who have by their deeds enrolled their
names upon Fame’s scroll, were deserving
of a prouder position than the old ‘Friend.’
Nor did he turn back, until Washington
had bade adieu to his army, and viotory
was ours.
******
Leaning on the same gate we have spo
ken of before, stood the wife of the veter
an, watching the return of their neighbors
from the war. She had waited long and
patiently for the coming of her only earthly
treasure, but he came not. Day after day
passed, and yet no news of the absent one.
Hope had nearly died in her anxious heart!
A horseman approached! Mechanically
she enquired of her husband.
« I reckon he died at King s Bridge,”
was the answer. “ I know he was badly
wounded. But we will hear particulars in
about a month.”
The speaker spurred on his horse, im
patient to greet his own expeotant family.
« Dead ! dead !” murmured the sorrow
ing wife, as she sank overpowered upon the
green sward at her feet.
“ Judith, I am here ! Judith, arouse
thee!” oried the veteran, clasping the
form of his aged wife in his arms. “ The
battles are done! The viotory is ours ! I
I have oome to thee alive ! Well! ”
With the passion of earlier years he im
pressed kisses upon her quivering lips.—
Languidly she raised her dimmed eyes and
gazed upon the returned hero.
“ Is this a dream?” she sighed.
“ Nay, Judith ! rouse thee, wife ! , The
God of battles heard tby prayers, and bis
arm was over and around me. I am safe.”
The veteran and his wife rest in an old
burying ground near their former home. —
There were no children to mourn them dy
ing, yet the memory of their worth is
treasured by many a heart, and many a
tear has been shed upon their grave. The
name of Peletiah Payne occupies no place
on the historic page, but there are those,
yet living, who will smile with grati
tude for even this mention of “ the Quaker
Patriot.”

finish, forming a gem possessing rare merit, and which de
fies all competition to equal. #

in the United States, and had the experience and practice
in the different Hospitals for several years; a member of
the Analytical Medical Institute of Now York, and late
Medical Surgeon of the U. S. Navy, now offers himself to
the public to attend any professional calls.
The purest medicines always on hand direct from the
best Laboratories of our country, and the Botanical Gar
dens of the world. No patent medicines prescribed or
recommended. Medicines used only which will not break
down the constitution, but will renovate tho system from
all injuries it has sustained from mineral medicines.—
Chronic and difficult diseases mußt be treated upon analyt
ical principles; which is to know and ascertain what dis
ease is. Its nature aDd character require a knowledge of
the chemical constituent of every solid and fluid of the hu
man body—the changes those solids and fluids are capable
of undergoing. To know what medicines to employ to
cure diseases, requires a knowledge of the chemical con
stituents of all agents employed In medicines, and If we
are in possession of this knowledge, it is possible to cure
any disease—no matter of how long standiog—and leave
the patient in a healthy and perfectly cured condition!
Dyspepsia, that distressing disease and fell destroyer of
health and happiness, undermining the constitution, and
yearly carrying thousands to untimely graves, can most em
phatically be cured.
Rheumatism, in any form or condition, chronic or acute,
warranted curable; Epilepsy, or falling sickne®,*ll chronic
and stubborn cases of Female Diseases radically removed;
Salt Rheum, and every description of ulcerations; Piles
and Scrofulous Diseases, which have baffled all previous
medical skill, can be cared by my treatment, when tho
