LINES ON A SKELETON Exactly forty years ago the London Morning Chronicle published a poem entitled, "Lines on a . Skeleton," which excited much attention. Every effort, even to the offering of a reward of fifty guineas, was vainly made to discover the author. All that ever, transpired was, that the poem, in a fair, clerkly hand, was found near a skeleton of remark able beauty of form and color, in the museum of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lincoln's Inn, London, and that the Curator of the museum had sent them to Mr. Perry, editor and proprietor of the London Morning Chronicle: Behold this ruin ! 'twos a skull, Once of etherial spirit full, This narrow cell was life's retreat, This space was thought's mysterious seat, What beauteous visions filled this spot, What dreams of pleasure long forgot: Nor Hope, nor Love, nor Joy, nor Fear, Have left one trace of record here. Beneath this mouldering canopy Once shone the bright and busy eye; But, start not, at the dismal void— If social love that eye employed; If with no lawless fire it gleamed, But through the dew of kindness beamed, That eye shall be forever bright, When - stars and sun are sunk in night. Within this hollow cavern hung The ready, swift and tuneful tongue: If falsehood's honey it disdained, And where it could not praise, was chained ; If bold in virtue's cause it spoke, Yet gentle concord never broke! This silent tongue shall plead for thee When time unveils eternity. Say, did these fingers delve the mine ? Or with its envied rubies shine? To hew the rock, or wear the gem, Can little now avail to them ? But if the page of truth they sought, Or comfort to the mourner brought, Those hands a richer meed shall claim, Than - all who wait on health or fame. Avails it whether bare or shod, These feet the paths of duty trod? If from the bowers of ease they fled, To seek affliction's humble shed— if grandeur's guilty bribe they spurned, And home to virtue's cot returned, These feet with angel's wings shall vie, And tread the palace of the sky. THE COLONEL. Holey stretched out on an old pine log, By his one-eyed horse and his bob-tail dog, And his breeches were showing by many a rent That their lease, although a long one, was almost spent. And as real estate you might class his shirt, For its cotton was long since buried in dirt ; And the brim of his broad-brimmed beaver was gnawed. But it was broad brimmed still, for the brim was a-broad. The rays of the sun were pouring down On the place where his hat should have had a crown. With emotions of pity I drew near his bed, And, gently to wake, I punched at his head With the point of my fishing-rod ten feet long, For you see the Colonel was burly and strong; And as he turned over he slipped off the log , And fell on the bank of his curtailed dog. The quadruped howled, the biped bawled, Then laiily back to his bed he crawled. qAwake, thou who sleepestawake•thee!" I cried ; "Oh, man, while thou elumb'rest, is passing the tide, Which, taken when rising, will bear thee to fame— Will lead thee to fortune—will gain thee a name." lie grunted out something, perhaps 'twas a damn, And said, “Not so drunk as you think I am." He winked his eye and he scratched his head, And (omitting the oaths) this is what he said : "Hello, Squire's that you? Did..you think I was drunk Because 1 laid here on this old pine trunk? A greater mistake, sir, you never have made, I was only waiting to make a horse trade ; Old Shepherd will come here, and thinking me slung, I'll take him for fifty, or may I be hung.'' I left him there on his old pine log, By his one-eyed horse and his bob-tail dog, And I thought to myself, as I sauntered away, How many are sleeping and losing the day As we think. But not so, for if they do sleep 'Tie only with one eye, the other doth peep; In a moment they're ready, with might and with main, To seize the occasion some profit to gain. COLONEL DEVNEAUX. BY GRANT OLIVER I first knew Devneaux when I attained to the dignity of bearing the colors of the glorious old —th. We were quartered at o—y, (a precious dull hole,) and the rural coquettes and garrison belles of that famous town having failed to make an im pression on his heart, endowed him with the reputation of invincibility. Neverthe less, he was the idol of the fair sex ; there was something irresistibly attractive in him ; he seemed to carry fascination in his dark piercing eyes ; and his voice—which I've heard above the crash of a cavalry charge—became, in the presence of women, as soft and musical as their own. I've heard young ladies—readers of Byron --say he was their ideal of Conrad, and express a belief that he had been, in early life, the victim of a hopeless love ; but little was known of his past history, and, as to evincing any curiosity on this subject in his presence, the pluckiest, and most impudent Sub ' would sooner "have charged a battery single-handed. Well, after we were pretty well tired of C—y, having flirted with all its eligibles, dined with its dinner-givers, and exhausted the credit list of its worthy traders, there came the welcome order to change quarters. When winter set in we were snugly settled in N--h, and had opened a very promising campaign in the pleasant old city. Here we made the acquaintance of the Herberts, who lived in one of those quaint, dull-looking houses within the Close. Miss Herbert was a handsome, rather fast girl, of about twenty-five, who would have been the toast of the regiment but that her sister Eleanor was a marvel of beauty. I have seen nearly all those called the most beautiful women in Europe, and yet the mere recollection of that one perfect face and figure, as I saw her at first, casts them all into the shade. I can give you no idea of her. To say that her eyes were black —her hair of that beautiful depth of dark ness one so seldom sees--teeth, lips, fore head, feet, hands, all perfect—this is noth ing to what she really was ; and she seemed born for the admiration which everywhere met her. It was a fearful visitation for the —th (always an amatory regiment;) mess and guard-room became mere temples for her worship, and we—down to the most un whiskered a Sub'—her most fanatical worshippers. There was but one exception —Colonel Devneaux was free from the contagion. He had not yet seen her, and took no interest in the subject of onr admiration. His turn came soon. One day he informed us that, having received more than one hospitable invita tion from our friends the Herberts, he had felt it a duty to accept the one for that evening. By Jove ! Fancy it a duty, whispered one of Eleanor's most ardent admirers to me, when the Colonel made the announce ment; _And certainly this duty was one performed with much greater pleasure than things of that name nettaliy woke in the I saw Detneaux introduced to our divinity' ' and watched him - anxiously, not by any means from a feeling of jealousy, bat an indefinableinterest in their meeting and its results. I hula vague hannting idea of something which would come of it, and, though not usually superstitions; I felt that a shadow of evil-boding hung about them that night., Poor Devneaux ! I little guessed what it-would be then. He had, as we might' have: known, a heart most tender, and susceptible to the higher and'pnrer graces of woman. Here was something differingaltogethei from the . usual stamp of our barracks beauties—an. angel in beauty, with.e. soul full of genius; and culture which had developed it far beyond the results of fashionable educa tion. Eleanor had heard of Devneaux' i s hatred —as ,we called .it—of the fair sex, and seemed resolved to establish her right to admiration ; she evidently made unusual efforts ; and, with true womanly instinct, divined what would most charm a man of his character. I saw in the first hour of their - meeting that she had succeeded. Who could fail to be charmed when a woman L-and such a woman—devoted her energies to - thelask I saw his eyes involuntarily following the sound of her voice, or the ,light, ,graceful figure, as it glided about or was-whirled in the grasp of some panting but . happy terpsichorean hero. Then followed a long conversation in the shadow of-the embayed window—a half hour over the piano, while she played as perhaps no woman played before, and where he listened spell-bound by the witching music of her voice. I I won't moralize or talk about moths and candles, but I thought about them when I saw Eleanor's beautiful eyes turning full upon his as he bent over her there. Time'passed on, and Devneaux was a con stant visitor at the Herberts. Poor fellow ! he was fairly caught at last, and never was there a more devoted, worshipping lover than be. Often, I think now, I feared for him, even then, and doubted whether, with all that wealth of beauty, she were worthyfvf such a heart. There was a something too roving and restless in the brilliant eyes, which made me think it would be well to pause before trusting his hopes and happiness to her keeping. Perhaps he saw nothing of the kind ;- and even my own suspicions were of a vague character until long afterwards, when I fouud they were but too true. One evening, heated and tired, I had left the room and strolled into the garden which lay calmly beneath the shadow of the old Cathedral. I had paced it a few times, and had turned to re-enter the house, when I saw Devneaux and Eleanor leave it. Not caring to interrupt their tete-a-tete, I turned into the dark shrub bery and waited until they should pass ; but, as luck would have it, they sat down upon a seat near me, and there I was ashamed to come out, not caring to play the eaves-dropper. There was no help for it, however; so, like a wise man, I resigned myself to see and hear as much as 1 could. I soon saw that I was not going to wit ness a lover's pleas and confessions. That stage was evidently passed ; for the beau tiful form was drawn towards him, and the soft dark hair lay lay like a summer cloud upon his shoulder—things I knew from experience to denote a perfect understand ing ; and, possibly, a something in the manner of both satisfied me that these pleasant familiarities were, not indulged in now for the first time. Forgive me, love,' Devneaux said, bending over and kissing the beautiful lips ; mine is not a foolish jealousy ; you are too noble t creature for drawing-room admiration, and I am grieved at seeing such folly please you.' Then why lot such folly grieve you r was the reply. I cannot be mopish and miserable. If you loved me, you would desire to see me happy and admired, if, as you say, it pleases me.' Here's a precious lover's quarrel, thought I, crouching still deeper in the shrubbery, and waiting patiently for more words on the subject ; but I heard nothing more ; there was something spoken in Devneaux's softest voice, and certain little passages, from which I concluded that the question was settled amicably.— Then Eleanor complained of gold, and both returned to the house, whither I followed them, mentally saying, So Devneaux has found out the spot on his sun already ;' and thinking it would be well if it never became more conspicuous. To make a long story short as possible, only a few months elapsed before Devneaux —to quote the language of a fashionable morning paper—s led to the altar the love- ly and accomplished,' &c., &o. He left us on his marriage, and I heard that, after passing the summer in Italy, the happy pair' had returned to his estate in D— shire. For some years I heard but little of them, until, passing sometime in London, I found that my.old friend was in town, and his house one, of the gayest of the season. I was astonished! What could have transformed him into a votary of pleasure or fashion ? What Sons had he to g place ?' or daughters to marry ? These were the questions I naturally asked my self, and I had soon an opportunity of answering them. I met him, was invited, and went. Eleanor had changed little in beauty, she was still peerless as of old ; but I soon saw there was a change, and that she had grown from the pure, high-souled girl, into a mere pleasure-worshipping, fashionable woman, to whom the admira tion and flatteries of the gay crowd that surrounded her were of more importance than all the duties of home and a hus band's love. What a wife for Devneaux ! I could see, while mingling with her in all these gaities, and by his love anticipating her lightest wish, -that care sat at his heart, and he was a miserable; disappoint.. ed man. So things went on; then there were whispers of a coldness between them, of angry remonstrance, and quarrel—with all the particulars and causes, of which the world seamed perfectlyseequainted-- and then came amore appaling whisper, which coupled her name with crime. I could not believe that of the pure-hearted, beautiful creature I . had knovvn years be fore ; but her conduct was mysterious, and she seemed to become totally: reckless. Then her owti sex -shrank from 'her, and the holtee became one ef. those Yon know' . • couNTßar Is THE MOST PROEM/30UB WIIERIS Leacts oommeims figs eugA*.air RIVARD. • • • - , LANcAsTER. - ..c,1TT.,...1).A;,. iTUE§DAT tiTORNINO,,,:,O CTOBER 23, -jsp!),:,':. i so well—aplace where men can throw off that restraint which the presence of pure Lwomeia hiposes, Poor. Devneaux! I never saw a more ,melancholy picture than he looked .on his own hearth—patient, devoted, and,. per.. haps, hoping for that change' which never came.

''DeeplY I,pitied,. and yet deploied his 'blindness , blindness, for I knew It must' come, and what would be the effects of his knowledge I scarcely dared to think. , • One morning I was breakfasting, and, I believe, thinking of the poor fellow, when I heard his footstep's and sharp knock at ' the door of my rooms. When he entered; I was appaled at he expression . of .his face ; it was lixid i v and there was a settled cruel determination in his eye- more . terri ble than passion. He held in his hand a letter. I saw in a moment what it was. Some of those kind people who, interest themselves ,in the affairs of their neigh bors had,anonymouily made him acquaint& ed with what all those around, him bad known so long. , Read this,' he said y quite calmly, but in so altered a voice. I read it, and returned the paper, scarce ly venturing to : say that, being anonymous, no credit could be _attached to • the eon tents. It is true—too true,' he • replied; there is no kindness in deceiving me now. I see it all. Fool that I have been.' And his head sunk into his outspread hands, as if to shut out the sight of her shame. Tell me,' he said, calming the convulsive workings , of ' his face with a strong effort, will you see me through this ? You are the only friend in the world I could trust in now, and there is but one course to take. Would that my death or his could wipe out the blot.' I murmured my deep sympathy, and said I would undertake what I knew he required ; then, bringing him wine, of which he partook, I went on my mission, leaving him, bowed and grief-stricken, in the place where he sank on entering my room. My object was soon accomplished. Mr. R— was, like Devneaux himself, a most skilful shot, and as careless of death or the law as men of his principles usually are. I arranged with his friend ; and as both knew the circumstances, no attempt at an arrangement was made; we simply settled preliminaries, and fixed the time for six the following morning. I returned, and told Devneaux what I had done ; and he pressed my hand with a fervor which made me shudder. He never returned to his own house—l had almost called it home—but remained with me, writing ; and only when long past the hour of midnight did he listen to my en treaties, and stretch himself on the sofa for an hour's repose. Poor fellow ! there was no rest for him even then. We were on the ground a few minutes before the time, and as he took my arm and paced backwards and forwards, a strangely vivid recollection of his former t 3 elf rose in my mind, and 1 could see how fearfully it contrasted with him now be side me. You will bear me witness,' he said, g should I fall, that I have given up all my life—conquered my very nature for her—that I might draw her by ceaseless love towards me. I thank God for that which once was my daily prayer and hope. We have no child. 1 saw soon after our marriage that rooted love of pleasure which has borne such deadly fruit, and I prayed for this to wean her from the world. Thank Heaven, it was not grant ed. Then the thought came upon me that I might show her the world's mad ness, and she would sicken and pine for the old home and love. I was deceived, and none can tell the sorrows I have borne for her sake. I say this that you may know why I mingled with and gave myself up to a society I despise. Per haps I did wrong, and my duty was to shield her From temptation. If so, I erred through love for her, and in the hope for which I would have sacrificed life itself— that she might once more give me back her heart. I have thought of this, and have left her all the wealth I possessed: If the fault be alone mine, my death may expatiate it, and she—God forgive her— she may live to repent, and sorrow even for me.' I listened with an almost burning heart to the fellow's heart-broken words, so utterly crushed he seemed to be under the merciless blow which had fallen upon him. I could not speak, but pressed his hand and pointed to where Mr. R— 'and his second came towards us. As the former, with an ostentatiously polite bow to us, threw off his cloak, I noticed a small locket on his breast. Devneaux observed it, for he started ; his desponding look disappeared, and his eye grew fearful in its steady brightness. Not for a mo ment did he remove his eyes from this during the processes of measuring the ground and loading; then, as .I handed him the weapon, I heard him mutter through his teeth, I shall shoot him-- there.' I felt by that fierce steady glance that there was small chance but he would, and never did my blood run so cold as when I gave the signal. They fired together—l saw B spring forward and fall on his face, and thoughlwe had lifted him in a moment, he never moved again. He was shot through the heart ; the locket was shivered to atoms . ; and in the wound, whence the life blood was streaming, were the shattered remains of a woman's hair. I saw Devneaux bend over it. It was Eleanor's ! the same that I had seen, in the days of her innocence and love, lying upon his- shoulder. There is little else to tell. Devneaux gave himself up, and went through the form of a trial, but was acquitted. Then he returned to his old place in the regi ment, which was just starting for India, and you all know how he fought and fell there. He never breathed the name of Eleanor, or spoke even to me of his past life. I was beside him when he died, and never saw the stroke of death more welcome than to him. Of Eleanor I heard; long afterwards, that she, too, was dead. Perhaps her remorse was great—it deserved to be so. The world heard nothing of her, but that she died; 'how? God—who knew her heartean only tell. A. GREAT SPEECH. ' At the first monster mass;motingof Unicia men at tke Cooper Institute in'New York city, a meeting at which it was estimated there were fifty thousand people present—many able • and ; eloquent speeches were delivered by distill guished orators from all portions of the Union; I but there was none more, able,• or more lila : quent, Or more effective, than that &livered by the Hon. Henry W. Hillier& of Alibitea, I Mr. Hilliard' was formerly a Whig member of Congres, but for several years past bas :effiliated with the Democracy and supported f their candidates for office. We can offer our readers, to.day, nothing that would be more acceptable than.the following strikingly been tiful and blocitiont passages from Mr, speech on the occasion above refinied to•: All that the South asks is that the Coned• tution be upheld; she demands nothing but that the Government he administered in .the -Ispirit of that -instrument. Her enemies are the enemies of the Constitution, :and they, can reach her institutions only by trampling that under foot. She does not envy theprosperity, of the North. She rejoices -in the increasing 'wealth and power of a kindred people ; she witnesses your rapid advancement, your pow erful growth, with just, pride, and she bids you on in your course efexpansion and eiv• ililatiOn I; she sees your splendid cities With hearty satisfaction, and glories in your corn , nierce, which bears the flag of the Republic to the remotest seas of the globe ; she is. content withher own lot; she asks no special :legislation for her benefit ;all that she demands is a full participation in the benefits of a common government, a full recognition of her rights, and a clear vindication of her honor. [Loud applause.] Wronged, degra ded, excluded from the full benefit of her own Government, she will never consent ,to be,; nor will she suffer her institutions to be brought under the ban of that Government. When we survey the wide 'picture of national :power and glory and happiness that 'spreads - out before us, we can hardly repress our in , dignation against those wild and wicked agitators who seek to destroy it ; and we exclaim in the language of Milton's nervous and earnest prayer against the enemies of the people of England, " Leave us not a prey to these importunate wolves, that wait and think long till they devour thy tender flocks ; these wild boars that have broken into thy vineyards, and left the print of their polluting hoofs on the souls of thy servants. Oh, let them not bring about their wicked designs, that stand now at the entrance of the bottom lees pit expecting the watchword to open and let out those dreadful locusts and scorpions, to re involve us in that pitchy cloud of infernal darkness, where we shall never more see the sun of thy truth again, never hope for the cheerful dawn, never more hear the birds of morning sing 1" [Loud and repeated ap plause.] This is a grand struggle between national ism and sectionalism. The very existence of the Union is involved in it ; men of extreme opinions seek to grasp the reins of government and if they succeed, they will plunge the country into irretrievable ruin. They must be put down. National men—statesmen— who stand by the Constitution and love the Union, and desire to see the laws enforced— they must be sustained, and to their hands we must commit the government. Rash men of sectional views cannot govern this great country, A perfect illustration of what would follow is found in the classics. Phmton desired but for one day to drive the chariot of the Sun ; he seized the reins—in his feeble hands the wild steeds flew from their accus tomed track. The universe was threatened with destruction, and not until a bolt flew from the uplifted hand of Jupiter, hurling the impetuous driver from his seat, could order be restored to nature. Better, far, to I keep rash, sectional, incompetent men out of the seat of power than risk the task to the aroused majesty of the American people of restoring order and hurling them from their places. [Applause.] It is not the first time, it is true, that the candidates for the highest offices in the Republic have been taken from one section of the Union ; but it must be re membered that this election is made to turn alone on a sectional issue ; every question of legitimate national policy is ignored, and slavery is the only question discussed. To take candidates now from one section—to proclaim war against another section—to denounce the institutions of co-ordinate States —this is the issue before the country ; this the policy exhibited to our view; and it never till now threatened to take control of the government. If they come into power it will be the beginning of the end ; this government cannot be administered upon that plan. The day that witnesses the election of Mr. Lincoln, if that calamity is to be visited upon us, will witness a convulsion which will shake the institutions of this country to their deepest foundations. [Tremenduous enthusiasm.] Public confidence will expire—stocks will go down—property of every description fall suddenly in value—commerce will feel the shock as if a storm had swept the sea and rent the sails of mighty ships—and this grand republican system—this glorious confederacy of free and powerful States, seated in friendly alliance upon a continent over which the gorgeous ensign of the Republic streams to day, the symbol of peace, of union, and of strength, will rock as if under the throes of an earthquake. The mariner can discover" with his practiced eye the signs of the rising tempest, and even far in upon the laud a bird is sometimes seen flying before the fury of the coming storm, which threatens to sweep its billowy home ; and I do not doubt that men of experience, sweeping the horizon with their glasses, begin even now to read the signs of danger in some of those aspects, which the times disclose to their view, while they escape the observation of a casual observer. I have always been for the Union—l am for the Union to-day ; but the best friends of the Union may be overwhelmed, as a faithful helmsman is sometimes driven from his post by the fury of a resistless tempest. Gentle men, let me see you arise like one man, and give three hearty cheers for our noble,Union. [The whole mass here rose with a common impulse and cheered right lustily.] Let us put down now and forever, sectional men •, they exult in the hope of victory ; they spread their fierce legions all about us, as Leslie's army shut in Cromwell ; let us, like that grand old Christian soldier, rise in our impet. uous strength and cut their lines to pieces. The Union must be preserved ; glorious objects lie before-us ; our destiny as a nation is not yet fulfilled. - [Loud Applause.] Mexico, Cuba—those great prob:ems—can only be solved by us. Europe is just now rising under the inspiritidg teaching of mar example. Let us accomplish the grand and beueficent objects of our destiny as a nation. Upon you, gentleman of the State of New York, depends everything at this crisis; do not be dismayed by the magnitude of the task wlitah lies before you; think of your vast strength;think of the glory which will crown you if, meeting the surging billows which have just broken over the State of Maine, you say to them " Thus far shalt thou come, and no farther, and here shall thy proud waves be stayed." [Renewed applause.] It is glo rious to see great strength displayed in the beneficent work of saving, and not of destroy ing. You can save a nation—you can rescue a republic—you can cover yourselves all over glory. The Lacedemonians stood at the - pass of Thermopylae, and, dying, earned, im mortality ; they perished because they were feeble; they counted but hundreds against a best. But you are mighty—you are invinci ble ; rise to the full grandeur of your position. Yriends ef.the Constitution, friends of Liberty, frienils - of the Republic, rise in the full majes -ty of your strength and crush the enemies of I your country.
