The OW Admiral.
none at last, .
That brave old hero of the Past I
_ .
His spirit has a second birth,
An unknown, grander, life -
All of him that was earth
Lies muteand cold,
Like a wrinkled sheath and old
Thrown off foreVer from the shithmering
blade
That has good entrance made - '
Upon some distant, glorious strife.
From another generation,
A simple age, to ours Old Ironsides came ;
The morn and noontide of the nation
Alike he knew, nor yet outlived hiti fame—
Oh, not outlived his fame t
The dauntless men whose service guards our
shore
Lengthen still their glory-roll
With his name to lead the scroll
As a flagship 'at her fors
Carries the Union, with its azure and the
stars,
Symbol of times that are no more
And the old heroic wars.
He was the one
Whom Death bad spared alone
Of all the captains of that lusty*ge,
Who sought the feeman where he lay,
On sea or shelterin bay, •
Nor till the prize was theirs repressed their
rage.
Tkey are gone—all gone :
They rest with glory and the undying.
Powers;
Only their name and fame and what they
saved are ours
It was•fifty years ago,
Upon the Gallic Sea,
Be bore the banner of the free,
And fought the-light whereof our children
know.
The deathful, desperate fight!—
Under the fair moon's light
The frigate squared, and yawed to left and
right.
Every broadside swept to death a score!
Roundly played her guns and well, till their
fiery ensigns fell,
Neither foe replying more.
Allin silence; when the night-breeze cleared
the air,
Old Ironsides rested there, •
Locked in between the twain, and drenched
•with ,blood.
Then homeward, like an eagle with her
re
0, it p
was a pliant fray,
That tight in Biscay Vay !
Fearless the Captain stood, in his youthful
hardihood:
Re was the boldest of them all,
Our brave old Admiral!
And still our heroes bleed,
Taught by that olden deed.
Whether of iron'or of oak
The ships we marshal at our country's need—
Still speak their cannon now as then they
spoke;
Still tioats„our unstruck banner from the mast
As in the stormy Past!
•
Lay him in the ground :
Let him rest where the ancient river rolls ;
Let him sleep beneath the shadow and the
sound
Of the bell whose proclamation, as it tolls,
Is of Freedom and the gift our fathers gave.
Lay him gently down :
The clamor of the town •
Will not break the slumbers deep, the beauti
ful ripe sleep • •
Of this lion of the wave,
Will .not trouble the old Admiral in his
grave.
Earth to earth his dust is laid.
Methinks his stately shade
On the shadow ,of a great ship leaves • the
• shore ; .
Over cloudless western seas"
Seeks the far Hesperides,
The islands of the blest, •
Where no turbulent Iffllows roar—
. Where is rest.
His ghost upon the shadowy quarter stands
Nearing the deathless lands.
. There all his martial mates, renewed and
• strong,
Await his coming long.
.1 see the happy Heroes rise
With gratulation in their eyes,:
"Welcome, old comrade," Lawrence cries
"Ab, Stewart, tell us of the wars !
•
Who win the glory and the scats?
• How floats the skyey flag—how many
stars?
Still speak they of Decatur's name,
Of Bainbridge's and Perry's fame?
Of roe; who earliest came ?
Make ready, all :
Room for the Admiral ! •
Come„ Stewart, tell us of the wars ?"

THE. DAILY EVENING. IitILIMIN-PH
. —officer,Elder, of Camden, last night ar
rested Catharine Welt% alias Moore, for drunk
enness. She was loCked„up- `ter -A hearing.
Catharine is an old rummy, and has several
times, been under lock and key: ,
' —Be acne your sLiai Will find , you ;out, is an
old, true saying, and was forcibly illustrated Iu
Camden yesterday. On the arrival of one of
the Morning trains, two peisnns,. giving' their
names as John Corbit and Henry Jones, were
taken before Mayor-. Cox on a Cluirge of having
been engaged in several burglaries. It appears
that when the train arrived at - Beverly, the fact
was communicated to the hands:. that; the sta-•
tion-house at that place had beep entered and
robbed the night previously of a Fold watch and
other articles. Consequently a vigilant scrutiny
Was had'of such passengers as' got on the train
after leaving Beverly. At one of the stations two
suspicious-looking individuals entered the cars,
each carrying a bundle carefully Wrapped up.
The robbery was the subject of conversation
in the Cars, and these men appeared very un
easy, and a close watch was kept on them. On
arriving at the Fish House, a ' shortdistance
above Camden, Corbit jmnped off the train and
ran into the woods. He was Seen captured,
however, and brought back to the ears; the
other, in the ineautirne,•being taken into cus
tody. Upon examination, before the- Mayor,
a large lot of various articleS were 'found in
their bundles, consisting of plated or German
silver spoons, forks; knives, pocket-books,
breast-pins, ear and finger-rings, silver pen and
pencil, a gold watch, studs,about $4O in money,
several silver quarter-dollars, and other things
of some value. In the afternoon -parties _from
Beverly recognized many of the articles. The
thieves bad entered the house of a Mr. John
Longstreet, at Beverly, taking from it a gold
watch, a chain and a pocket-book containing
$9, belonging to a Mrs. Smith, who was tem
porarily stopping there. They alio broke into
the house of a Mr. Stockton, and robbed it of
various articles. From this they proceeded to
the residence of Mrs. Mary Van Nossum,where
they secured a considerable amount of jewelry.
These burglaries were perpetrated on Tuesday
night. The prisoners were - committed, and
will be sent to Burlington county for trial.
' An interesting and valuable doetiment per
taining tollie history of German theatres has
just been found iu the archives of the city of
Zwickau, Saxony. It is a file of the records of
the Criminal Court of that city since the year
1712, and consists of two hundred and eighty
eight leaveS, bearing the . supoiseription "Acta
Gottfried Zornen, 'Studiosum, dui* mid
Fridericam Carolinam Weissenbornin, be
trelfend"-,--transaetions relating to Gottfried
Zorn and Frederike Caroline Weissenborn.
The latter is better known by the name "Die
Neuberin," the wife of an actor named Neu
her, and designated in German theatrical his
tory as the reformer of the German theatre.
Born in 1697, When scarcely fifteen years old
she ran away from her father's house with
Zorn,' a candidate of law; and wandered
through the country with him,' in great 'poverty
and misery, until they Were both arrested and
imprisoned for a space of seven MonthS.
The letters of the young woman,' now found,
show unusual energy, and from them it is
ascertained that on account of household dis
comforts and the rough treatment of her father,
she had previously run away from home with
an ex-court-inspector and advocate: The re
cords contain the warrants issued for herarrest
when with Zorn, and among other things is the
following: "The girl, Woissenborn is of un
common height, but slender, and Of a light
color." At the trial it was adduced that she
had been compelled to sell her hair at one
place, for one and a half dialers, to save
herself and companion from starvation. Five
years later she married air actor named
Neuber. She soon gained tame as au actress,
and was the first German actress Who had any
idea of verse and tragic action, and also played
pert comic parts with great success. In 1727
she directed a company of her own, and wan
dered in Germany as far as Strasburg and
Hamburg. As directress she collected around
her the finest talent. Under the influence of
Gottsched, with' whom she was on intimate
terms, she introduced translations of French
tragedies on the German stage, as well as
Gottscbed's and his friend's, and 1737 she
'solemnly banished the harlequin from the stage,
who had held sway up to that time.
• Her pecuniary affairs became embarrassed,
and in 1740 she accepted an engagement at St..
Petersburg, returnini , to Leipsic in 1744 'to
take part in the attacks on Gottsched, even in
troducing him in a prologue upon the stage.
She never regained her former fame, and died in
great poverty at Laubegast, near Dresden, on
'the 30th of November, 1760. A monument
was erected to her memory by friends of the
drama in 1776. She wrote prologues and dia
logues, some of Which are printed.
The newly-discovered document will throw
sonic light on the theatrical life of the early
part of the eighteenth century.
When Prince Arthur was at London, Canada,
he occupied the house of Alderman Glackmeyer.
After Prince Arthur left, the Alderman sent
In a bill in which he charged eighteen hundred
dollars for the use of his house. This was re
garded as an extortionate charge, and Glack
meyer was pronounced disloyal. It _was inti
mated that he should have sent in no bill, the
honor of entertaining royalty being quite suffi
cient. Glackmeyer failed to see it in this
light, and. so gave the items of his account,
from which we learn - that Prince Arthur is
_as wild a youth -as his big bmthers, who have
left so many unpleasant reminiscences of
themselves in various parts of the world.
It seems that Glackmeyer lost from his
house during the royal occupation, one and
a half dozen tablecloths, besides stockings,'
and finger-towels unnumbered. His sister had
only one pair of stockings left, and he lbst a
pair of trousers. The princely party made as
free with the property . of their lieges as did
ever prince or king of the most rapacious breed
of Tudor or Plantagenet. The indignant
Glackmeyer further says that "a splendid
Brussels carpet in the room occupied by Colonel
Elphinstone was almost ruined. Two tubs
had been sent for in which to wash, although
there was a bath in the house, and in the morn
ing the tubs were upset and the soapsuds were
all over the room." This was truly a right
royal method of repaying hospitality, and we
do not wonder that the Hamilton Times re
commends an official inquiry, and observes
that "nothing meaner or more contemptible
;than the accompaniments of the Prince's visit
to London has ever happened in Canada."
—The Members of the French House of
Representatives, according to a scale of
charges published by Leon Guillet in the
Rappel, pay the following prices (gold) for the
items of their uniform. 'What will strike our
readers is the relative cheapness of these ex=
quisite garments :
Coat, silk-lined, with embroidery and
pure silver trimmings $52 00
Blue and white satin breeches will side

White waistcoat ' 5 00

—Orders for a 'funeral salute to the late
Franklin Pierce were received at Fort Trum
bull, New London, only last week, and the
guns were fired. A Hartford paper fears the
New Londoners are liable to get up next
week and' tire a salute in honor of Mr. Baffin,
the discoverer of Baffin's Bay.

"Cadir.vs, SwerzEld.AND, October 21, lEkl9.
—To if. Victor Prrxident of the Peeos
Conyeess of Lituatoute : Sin—For years 1 have
been at a distance your admirer. Your devo
tion to the causes of Woman, of Liberty and
of Peace, which have engaged my own
humble efforts; has awakened my esteem and
enthusiasm. I came to Europe designing to
attend the Congress of distinguished men over,
which you lately presided. 'Prevented ac-:
cident from doing so, allow run to make in
this manner the remarlot which I should have
wished to address to you then.
-Peace, sir, is greatly &wired - by the ma
jority of every civilized pe..lople: The world
now knows that it is needtul to general happi
ness. Those who seek to promote it are true
benefactors of mankind. Their work must at
last succeed.
"But when the best known speaketa for
peace keep up a standing threat of war; when
Peace. Cong,resscs in effect declare that no
pease shall be lasting till more wars have been
fought; when, you yourself in many ways
openly approve and foretell insurrection, it
becomes necessary for me and, thoSe with
whom I act to protest.
"1 yield to none in earnest love for indi
vidual liberty. lint I fearlessly assert that
Europe nerds to-day nothing so much as a
general disarmament. • litieding armies are
the burden which makes taxes heavy and pro
Each soldier withdraws not only
himself, but his support, from the production
of society.
"Without standing armies war Ls
With them olticens and men crave
chances of distinction. A slight misunder
standing is a signal for glory based on
horror.
"Also, withoutstandirw armies, tyranny at
home is not easy. ifolilitary discipline teaches
the people despotism.
"Now what keeps up these standing ;AI-

"The fear of insurrection.
"What causes this fear?
"The rerolutionary attitude of the friends of
freedom:.
"As long as the latter plat to subvert govern
ments by arms, so long will governments

-The crushing reply JP M. Itouhe.r to 'M.
Thieves attack on the restrictions placed by
the Empire on the press, inwhick he showed
that when in power M. Tillers was less liberal
than the Empire. has made a profound Am
pression on .h.nglish-speaking men. This im
pression has been deepened by the late course
of the liberal French press. I must say that I.
share this view; that since 1813 governments
have been able t' remain despotic by reason
of the violence of the advocates of' liberty,
which has frightened and alienated the peo.;'
pie. They have said with 31. Guerori, that if
they are forced to choose, they are for the, pre
sent condition ; and with the 6ntrvons of the
ceft.'s of the Boulevards, that they desire no
change which destroys their means of getting
bread.
.‘ Ah, sir, let us be seikritttio• instead of
m tailb y cal ; practical . . instead of theoretical
We may argue the wisdom of Republican
ism, the illeffitinuicy of exbting governments,
triumph:Autry forever. But a fact like the state
of Spain, where 75 per cent. of the people can
not read our proofs. brushes our logic and our
theories aside like cobwebs.
" Sociolotcy has shown that gdvernmentre
flects the wishes of the mass of the people.
One which does not, changes or falls. The
French Emperor knew this, and founded the
empire, therefore,
.on universal suilrage. In
this he was wiser and more liberal than the
republic. 'The empire is peacefully changing
through popular suffrage ; it will not fall.
" If we wish 4)ermaneut change in govern
ment-change that. is worth effort—why shall
we not follow the.wise course of 31azzini, who
for thirty years peacefully organized the mind
of the Vahan people to desire change, till the
oppreesious of the past fell withscarce a blow?
Let W 3 show the people that theywill be hap
pier for a change, and they will make it them
selves. .
but try to force.new measures on them,
they will reject measures and uas—and rightly.
""In conclusion. allow me to say that r
gret beiug obliged to differ with one so illus
trious as yourself.

and suitably acknowledged. He added that
the Spanish Government strongly. desired
to enti the state of war in Cuba and to pre

prosperity.
For some time past .1 . .havo been among
you 'SLY a friend. 'I have studied yoUr country,
your institutions, ,yourseiv,es. ,Will„ you hear
me at a friend?: '
" I am told that you are too high-spirited to
listen with patience lo a foreigner. But I
cannot believe that you will repel or turn from
voice'-'rho of 'your Western brothers. ' So,
-standing witho,t4 your differences, looking on
parties as friends, ,I venture a few words'of
earnt counsel. .
'ilming My:visit to you I have seen mucti
to admire. Your climate is delightful; your
scenery lovely ; your soil wondrous rick, Year
history is impressiviv. and instructing; your an
tiquities are imand. Your .men are refined and
quick; your women are fit to be the mothers
of heroes and sages. You are a noble people,
and your nobleness has outlived misfortune.
" But in these misfortunes Iliad cause to re
gret as well as to admire.
"Once Spain was the freest and richest
country in the world. Her flag waved over
the trade of the earth. But tyranny crushed
her freedom, and her commerce passed to
others. For man,yyears she has been laid
waste by war. All who could, fled to Lauds
where civil strife was unknown. Those who
could not leave, sent their property where it
was safe. Thus has a long course of civil wars
stripped her of the wealth of America and the
East. Industry does not flourish. Her flag
Is rare on the seas. Your lan census showed
that 7.5 per cent. of her people could not read
or write. Armed bands have disturbed her
peace. Robberies and t murders have been
common.. Her govenntient has been too often
ineffective. By armed efforts to overthrow it,
that government has been led to despotic acts,
and to maintain a
clanger
standing army, which
is a lnirden and a to a nation.
"These' things 1 have learned from your
selves. But amid regret hope appears. Great
would be this bope but for another fact, which
I Liment more deeply than these.
"Of all the parties which divide you, I find
not one that is not passionate against men
who differ from it—that does not wish to en
force its policy by arms. I find that the lives
of men are unsafe because of their views, and
that foreigners fear to trade with you, as they
expes.l civil war.
"This state of things it is that forbids to me
a hope as strong as my desire. War breeds in
all parties a readines to exercise and to en
dure tyranny.
"Ott, brothers, mark the lesson of the past!
Tyranny destroys safety of person and pro
perty. When these are gone, national pros
perity has disappeared. 'War gives tyranny
opportunity.
" You cannot establish your ideas by arms.
Never have in.stittitions'succeeded unless
founded on the character and wants of the
people. Without this basis, though they
. litter with bayonets, they quickly rot and
To change institutions, then, change the
character of the people. To do this teach them
the farts that shape your deAres. That is,
educate them in sociology.

you, do not let the south wind of t war

It was this which gave Christianity its power;
that in an age of arms it labored to change the
character anttde.vices of the people.

to your beautiful land. Under this magic
charm dry fields shall glow with living green
and barren spots shall yield.
"Recognize. each other not as partisan foes,
but as Spaniards; sons of the same Heavenly
Father; natives of the same soil. Disprove, by
your example, the slander which says that the
Latin races are incapable of freedom. Sub:

MEDICAL
Ayer's
Hair Vigor)
For the Renovation of the Hale._
The Great Desideratum of the Age.
A dressing which
is at once agreeable,
healthy, and effectual
for preserving the
hair. Faded or gray
hair is soon restored
to its original color
and the gloss and
freshness of youth.
Thin hair is thick
ened, falling hair checked, and bßls
ness often, though not always, cured
by its use. Nothing can restore` the
hair where the follicles are destroyed,
or the glands atrophied and decayed.
But such as remain can be saved for
usefulness by ,this application. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free
from those deleterious substances which
make some preparations dangerous and
injurious to the hair, the Vigor can
only benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambric, and yet lasts
longer on the hair, giving it a rich
glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.
