I reach my home as evening' dies; -„
And WO what glinees Meet' my own--
A laaghing girl; witit_eager eyes, -
The,sweetest stars that ever shone; '•
An angel full,of mirth and grace, -
With fairy feet. mid heavenly face.'
• t.muse besid - e , the ebeerll2l fire,
And picture faces now no mora : -
As fancies - never seem to tire, -
But bring me back ; the scenes of yore;
The.village green, the tiny stream,
That bit before me like a dream.
And everything resplendant beams,
No sorrows o'er my musings roll;
Each moment with a treasure seems,
And realmi of gold entrance the soul,
While Eden's \ paths lies at my,fet4,.
My heait feelslheaceo at evexy. beat.
fi
My smiling angel climbs my knee;
And nought around my gladness mars;
Her sunny words gush fresh and - tree,'
And bpulent as Indian stirs.=
'Then opes her little rips of bliss.,
And shyly woes the proffered kiss !
And then I watch het earnest smile,—
All wreathed with dimples as it'grows;
With not a trace, of earthli guile.
While all its rosy'radience throws
• A blush like'sumEOCC on my cheek •
The more. it plays the less I speak.
And lore's rich heaven goes flOsting - hy,
While pleasures wear a deeper 'hue ;
Like.clonds In an autumnal skY,.
With tints of gold and ;abs of blite
'fhe sunsets have a softer flame,
Ald poetry a higher claim.
- . • . . •
I hold communion-meat divine, • ,
And clasp my darling to my breast
While.'tween her curls her 'beauties shine,
And, eyes closed in delicious rest;
Pnro as a daisy on the sod,
Whos dewy heart reflects its God.

The lungs - -were made - for respiration. Arid
the air was made to breath—not carbonic acid
gas, nor corritpted, foul or confined air, f tho'
it may still retain oxygen, but the pure sweet
breath of heaven. That is the thing. Noth
ing else will answer.. That is the element in
which tie live—or rather, 'it • must 'be said,
iri - whicli 're ought to live. 'lt is expressly..
adapted to,the purpose. A portion of blood
comes in contact with a portion of.air in the.
!nags at eapli inhalation. • The air • imparts
oxygen to the bloOd and receives carbonic,
acid from it. By thia.prOe'ess the blood . is
-
,received and purifiel. It is. then again .ye t
ceived by the heart from the lungs, and is
?hence sent through tike arteries,. to the mint'-
. r.
tests portions of the entire system, n here it
deposits Vitalized - niaterials'and•rerieVes effete
. ones, .and'aptin takes its journey- through the
veins to thelungs:Vid to the heart, to- be
again •vilified by contaet.with the air. The
whole blood of thesystem travels this round
about once per minute, continually: The
vjnous blood=;that - returning Me; lungs- -is
dark and turbid., The arterial blood on that
being dispersed,is of a trifle crimson. color,
provided it has met
,with pure air - in the
lungs..
Vital beat also depended upon the breath
ing of good air. It is the result of the unioa
oxygen and carbon in the production of car
boniu acid. The'breath exhaled is charged
with carbonic acid gas, and other 'imparaties.
And this exhald-breath is no more fit .to be
breathed again than food is fit to be eaten
twice. - •

We commend.the following thrilling

'the .'consiCleratioti - .Of the modern - order• of
Itnow Nothings, rho who had tha , . 'all . men 'of
foreign birth should be prr, - Cribeid as unfit
guard the' templ`Of freedom.' Pulaski was
a foreigner an. a Catholic : • -
It - was at the. battle of Brandywine' that
(fount Pulaski iti)peared in all his gljv.
°.-4N:she rode charging trier , , into:the..thick
est of the battle. L. was a.warrior to look up.:
on but.ont-;e. and never forget.
lMounted on a large black hoise,- whose
'strength and beauty of shape made you for
get the plainness of his comparisOn, Pulaski,
himself, with a form six feet in height, mas
sive chest, and- limbs of iron, was seen from
afar relieved by the cloud of battle.
':His face grim with the scars of.. Poland,.
was the face of a man Who had 'seen 'much
trouble, and endured much wrong.. It was
stamped with an exprsion of .abiding
mel
ancholy. 13ronzed in,hue, lighted by large
black eves, with the lip darkened hy a thick
moustache, his throat and chin were covered
with a heavy heard, while his hair fell in ra
yen masses from beneath his trooper's cap.
shielded with a ridge of glittering steel. rlis
hair and beard was of the same 'hue.
The that hung by big side, fashioned
of tempered steel; with a hilt of iron, was one
that a warrioralone could lift.
• It was in this array that he rode to battle
followed by a band of three hundred men,
whose faces burnt by the scorching% of the
tropical sun, .or hardened by northern snOivs,
,bore the sears of many a battle. •They were
mostly Europeans; some -Germans, some Po-
landers, and some deserters from the. British
army. • These Were the men to &ght. To be
taken by ,the , British would be death on the
gibbet; therefore they fought to . aaeir last
gasp rather than mutter a ward abot t "•
, I ff
When they charged, it was as one man,
their heads against the cloud .of.hatile. They
came down , upon tlitNeuemy in terible silence
'without a word spoken, not even a whisper.
You
-could hear the trainp pf their steeds.
yOu could hear the rattling of their scab
bards, but that, seas all. As they closed with
the BritiSh, youl,could hear the noise like the
echo of a hundred hammers beating the iron
on the anvil, youtcould see Pulaski himself
rising-yonder in his white uniform, his . black
steed riding aloft, as turning his head over
his shoulderibe spoke to his men :
It was but broken German,yet they under

faces wounds. and gashes. With ' c one - burst
they rushed upon the enemy. Fora few mo

grounn wasidovered with dead, while their
living enemy scattered in panic before their
path. - -

A Story ul the Setotattoo.
The 'following story, related -by a Mother
to her children, a few years-since,will . show
the spirit that existed among .the people of
NeW England at-a. trying period to which it
relates:
. Late in the. afternoon of one of the last
days in May, l'ifft, whew.' was a few mouths
short of fifteen years old, notice came to
ToWnsend, Mass., wiutre my, faller . used •to
five; that fifteen soldiers Were waated„
The training "band was instantly. called
out; and my brother next older • than myself
was one that was selected. it' did not re
turn till late at night, when. all were in bed.
When I rose in the morning' I found niy
mother in tears, who infurmed me that My.
biother John was to march the day after
to
mori-ow, at sunrise. My father was at Boston,
in the blassachnsekts . Assembly. Mother
saidlliat though Jolin was supplied with
summer clothes, he must
. be away sevel, or
eight months, and would suffr, fur want. of
winter garments. , There Was,_ at this
. tifiie,
no store, and no articles, to be —had,.exeept
such as each family would' make itself. The
sight of a mother's tears always brought all
the hider strength of the mind to action.. I
immediately asked her what garments : were
needful. She replied pant.c.louuS."
"Oh, if that is all." said I, "we will spin
and Weave him a pair before he goes."
• "Tut," said my tuotheri" tlivool is onlhe
sheep's back, mid the sheep are in
.the pat . -
ture." ,
I immediately turned to a younger brother,
and bade hint to take a salt-dish and call
them to the yard.
Mother replied, "Poor child, there are -no
sbeep-shears within three miles and a hall."
J have sonie small shears at the loom," said
"But we can't spin and weave in so 'Awl
a. tithe."
"I• am certain we can, mother."
" frow.cao you wealle it? There is a Jong
web otlineu in the loom."
"No matter, I can find an empty
By
. thiS time the sound ef the sheep made
me quicken my steps towards the sheep yard.'
I requeited my sister to bring me- the wheel
and cardS, while I went for the wool. I went
~to the yard withmy brother and
,secured
white sheep, from which I sheared, with my
tlown shears, half enough for the web ; we then
let her go with the rest of the flock. sent,
Ake wool in with my sister. .Luther, ran off
'for a black sheep, and held,her while Icut off
wool for my filling, and half' the Warp, - and
then we allowed her to go, with the remain=
ing part of her fleece. -
The wool thus obtained was duly . carded
and spun, wlshed sized, and dried; a locan
_was fohnd a few doors off; the web got in;
woven - and prepared, cut and made, two or
three hours before my •brother's departure,
that is to say, in forty hours from the 'cow:-
menet:went, without helrfrom ; any modern
improvement.' • ,
. .
The good old lady closed bi saying, "I
felt no weariness; I wept n0t. 77 :1 was serving
my country ; I was assisting poor 'nether ; I
was preparing a garment for my darling broth
er.. The garment being finished, I
,retired
and.Wept, : till my over* charged and . bursting
heart tvas relieved."
This brother was, perhaps,, one of Gen.
Starks best, soldiers, and with' such a spirit
• to.cepe with, need we wonder.that • Burgoyne
did not exeute his threat of marching through .
',the' heart bf. America Y . •
What CcpusUtutes
"To be rich," said. Air. Marcy, our worthy
Secretary of State, " requires only _a• satisfac
tory condition:of the mind.. One man may
be rich with a hundred dollars. *hit() anoth
er, in the possession of millions, may think
himself poor; and as the necessities of life
aro enjoyed by. each, •ft is evident that the
man. who is the best:satisfied -`with his poi
sessions, is 'the richer." -
To illustrate thisideti, Mr. Marcy related
the following - anecdote : While I waa Giiv
ernor of the State of-New York, said he, I
was called 'upon one , morning, at. my
,ollice,
by a rougit specimen of •js bn fl kwoodsman t
