From the Deinocratic Review for April;
Vie ship Buithers.
av .1. 0. WIIITTIEU.
The eky is ruddy in the East,
The earth is gray below,
And, spectral in the river-mist
Our btre white timbers show.
Up:—let the sounds of measured stroke
And prating saw begin;
The broad-ax , to the gnarled oak,
The mallet to the pin
Hart:—Roars the [allows, hlastran blast,
The sooty smithy Jars, -.
And fire •spatka rising far and fast
Are fading with the stars.
All day for us the smith shall stand
Beside that flashing forge;
All dal for us his heavy hand , •
The groaning anvil scourge.
Gee opt—Gee ho! --The panting team
For 11.4 is toiling near
. . For te,the raftsman down the stream
Their island barges steer:
[Wigs out for us the az-man's stroke
•
In forests uld and still—
For us the century-circled oak .
Falls crashing down his hill.
Up !--in nobler toil than ours
No craftsmen bear a purl:
We make of Nature's giant powers
The slaves of human Art.
Lay rib to rib and beams° beam,
And drive the trunnels free;
Nor faithless joint nor yawning seam
Shall, tempt , the searching sea!
Whore'er the keel of our good ship
• The sea's rough field shall plow--
Where'er her tossing spars shall drip
With salt spray caught below—
That ship must heed her master's beck,
•
Her helm obey Iris hand,
And seamen tread her reeling deck •
As if they trod the land. ,
Her oaken ribs the vulture beak '
Of Northern ice way peel-- t •
The Sunken rock and coral peak
May grate along lier keel: I '
And know we well the painted shell
We give to wind and move,
Must float, the sailor's citadel,
Or sink, the sailor' grave!
Ho!--strike away the bars and blocks,
And set the good ship Ave!
Why lingers on theile dusty rocks •
The young bride, - of the sea I
Look I--how she anOikeir adown the grooves
In graceful beaky - now I•
How lowly on the breast she loves
Inks down tier virgin prow
God bless her, wheresoe'er the breeza
Iler snowy wing shall fan, . ,
Aside the frozen Ilebridcs
Or sultry Ilindostan
Where'er, in mart or on the main,,
•
With peaceful flag unfurled,
t She helps to wind the silken chain - •
Of Commerce round the wo rlds .
, ••
, .
.Speed on the shipi--But let her bear '
No merchandise of sin,
. No groaning cargo of despitr
Her roomy bold within.
No Lethean drug for Easterh lands, •
Nor poison draught for burs,
But honest (rails of tonn. hands
And Nature's ion anishowers.,
•
Be hers the Prairie's golden grain, •
The Desen's'goltlen sand, •
The clustered fruit's of sunny Spin,
The spice of Iddriiing hind:
Her pathway on the open main
May blessings follow free, _
And glad hearts weleenie back again

This is the title of a capital thing in the "Janua

mentil. The addition of the sauce when there
1338 a full, supply of. gravy in the dish, to them
seemed a superfluity; but, the, exploring genies of
Ajax Telamon was-irresistibly excited by the pep
per; a condiment that was altogether new to him;
and perceiving thaOhe effect was grateful and ap
petizing, he eiclaitned : •
"Pray sir," said be,"would you have the good.
ness to leemetaste a little of your red sirs?"
"With, pleasure," replied the parson;' "Gut I
must apprize you that it is pepper, and nut salt;
pepper of the strongest force, tout I received from
a friend in the tropics, and," said he, us he hand
ed it to him. "a few grains`go'a great way."
- A' half derisive glance at the size of my uncle.
and then at his own pdrtly figure, seemed to inti
mate that he thought thel caution very little worthy
of notice by a man of his cuticular inches. He
rapped the bottle on ; the sides art - he had seen the
parson !unser' theigrains of Ins fiery .stimulant, up
plied it - in the saute sway, but without the same
caution,to 'his gravy,;and used it freely with' his
meat.
The pepper wes`not long in making his'acquain
lance, but lie resisted manfully the first intimations
of this internal assailant;' hemmed stoutly and re
peatedly, as if he ehre determined to maintain his
ground ,;',his face then - became scarlet ; an unnat
ural warmth tookt, posscssion . of hie'. frame; the
tonsils of his threat began to swell ; eyes glis.
tened;:he dashed away a tearlrom his obstructed
sight, apread abroad his arms like Sainson groping
for the remaining pillars of.the temple of Gaza, -
and rose in an agony of distress rind 'pain, unima-`
ginable by biro in his dreams before. His first
note was that of the - great brindled hull in his own
cattleyard at home. The word uoandoeti no jus
tie whatever to the sound.
.Fortunately be did not cough. Itly,unele, much
conc. rued at the incident, recommended him to
allay- the pungency with a. glass of water. He
Caught at the word. He endeavored to say, "Will
thtit pin it out?" and making for a huge stone jug
that bad 'been replenished, ho raised it boldly to,
his tips; and took a 'draught that, had its contents
been more gentle, night, for its length.and breadth,
and depth and beighth, have won 'frotnHacchus
the whole conquest of the Indies. .
"Jederliah," said he, Its soon 'as he:could articu
late, for the land's sake, does My mouth blaze?"
. "No," said the 'other with imperturbable cool
ness, "but .it smokes consumedly, 'Hirai:n.l tell
you. . .•
Another :Ora wafer seemed to reassure him of
his 'safety against internal combustion; and his
powers of speech in some measure returning; and
with .them his self possession, he strode in front of
my uncle and accosted hint : "Ho you knoW, mis
ter at I took Yoor a arson?"
"I th am, indesd, u "

EIWCATION. —Every boy should have his head,
his heart'and his hand educates. Let this truth
never be foremen. 'By the proper education of
the head, he will be taught what is good and what
i t evil—What is wine and what is foolish—what is
right and what is wrong. By the proper education
of:the heart, be will be taught to love what is good,
wise anOiglit, .and to hate •what is evil, foolish
and wrong; and by the proper education of the
harid, he will be enabled to supply - his wants, to
add to !his comforts, and to assist those around
him. The• highest objects of a good education are
to reverence end obey God, and to !nee and serve
mankind—everything that helps us in attaining
these objects is'of great value, and every thing that
hinderit us• is comparatively Worthless, i When
wisdom reigns in the head, And love in the heart,
the head is ever ready to di good; order and peace
smile around, and sin and sorroware alMost un

-n. HISTOUT OF J FIENO.—eA suit of law has Mi.
, rmenced within a short time in New York, which
bas brought to light tne conduct of a fiend. which
`fur basene4s and turpitude, can - find- no parallel,
j;.we should think, in the crviliied world; Thegi- I
I : ress relates th particulars as follows :
I `•The individ al to whom , we have alluded is a
native of Spain or Cuba. married a young
girl a few years ago at Havana, by whom he had
a daughter He thin seduced the mother of his
wife, was arrested for the crime, and - tried and
condemned to transportation: The vessel on hodrd
of which he was placed; with other'Oritcts, Was
wrecked in a : storm on our coast, by which he 4.
civet' and - made his,way to New York. After
being - some, time here, he sent to Havana for his
wife and child,who in due time arrived, being tic
companied by his will's sister: Subsequently, he
seduced the sister, who had offspring by him—and
now_comes the dreadful point of our story. When
his own child had , arrived at the age of fourteen.
or fifteen years, she also became the object of his
hellish lust, and proved crwiente by
.him. The
authorities hearing of the matter began to stir in
the business, when he thought it best to fly, which
'he did carrying off his own daughter as a mistress,
and leaving-his wife here, with' one or two other
children. J
• r,
As to businesa, he had been engaged for some
years as agent to a House at Havana. „Previous
to leaving New York, he placed his• good's in the
1 hands of a third party.. The, house at Havana
I ;hearing of the transaction, sent a power donor
new Loa gentleman here to obtain end take chargel
of the goods which had been in the individual's
hands. • The gentlemen applied to the third party
who had them.in posses-ion,
,hut who refused, - to
give them up, claiming to owii them. The gen.'
tlemen then commenced proceedings at law, but
. in.doing a., gave an opportunity .to the lanai to
bring a, counter suit againet• him, which he did,
laying the damages at $20,000, and the gentle :
man was ordered to be held to bail in $6,000.1--
This, we believe, he Las not been able to obtain.
and may have to go to prison, and his little bitsi
'ness and family are broken up—truly -verifying
the old adage, 'One man comtnitteth sin, and
thousands feel the evil `effects thereof.' "
POLITENESS.—True politeness is an accOm.
plishmtnt-of a very high order. Ceremonial ex
'cess is exceedingly offensive. Great attention to
forms which do not breathe either 'poetry or-'feel
ing, is indicative of great weakness; but forms
which do breatheauch fragrant atmosphere, which
communicate pleasure or remove unessiness,:are
important. To distinguish between thgse is no
easy matter. We cannot teach people to be poets
and poetesses, painters, sculptor's and musicians;
but we can tell them, that they will fail to please
the common sense of taste or propriety in either
of these capacities, if they do not conceal their art
as much as possible, and hide themselves in' the
exhibtion of nature. Self is always effensive.:. 'lt
is self that makes affectation, that spoils the.sinile
and tone of %%dee, and the air and attitude of those
.who make the utmost efforts to please. These
very efforts displease. They are in manners'what
labor is in • poetry or painting,. They show art
and hide nature. They are to manners what cant
is to religion. Soft piping tones that' are agreea
ble 01 children are often offensive to adults,• who
are not pleased to be talked to as if they were, ba
bies. Musical tones introduced into conversation
savor greatly of art, and require more skill and
'and talent to manage well than belong to ordina
ry people; In general nothing pleases so well as
the common:conversational tone. This is easily
known. 'Gs a species - of countenance by which
we rCeognize a friend,. Who is otherviiise disguised
by the changes of time or Climate. Just ;as the
natural countenance is better than a made-up face
—a twisting and writhio of the muscles of' the
Mouth and nose—so is the uttural,voice. ;. We
cannot alter it.'ond if we attempt it, wb show our
effort; and we displease by the outrage we commit
upon ourselves, but most of - all-by the self which

feet. One might suppose that there 'cannot be
much selfishness in trying to . please; biut then'the
perfection of politene-s requires that we please
without an effort. A generous confidence in one
another is the true atmosphere of social politeness,
and that will please without showing either the
•
desire or the fiuspici;in. •

generally, denominated as 'boot': two dollars in
cash, three gallons of whisky, two pounds of tonuk

SCENE is A WESTERN COUILT.-- 1
. While a :Mr.
Estes was giving his testimony in a case trying at
the Justices' Court, in Van Buren enunty,..Mo., in
a,trifling suit, a 'Mr. Anderson called him a liar.
The ittsult wasresented. Anderson being the
stronger man, got Estes down, and
~;:vas dealing
heavy blows upon him, when Estes drew a pen
knife and stabbed him.some half dozen times, and
he fell back a lifeless corpse. Estes wilt admitted
to bail, and it is rumored that he has since elev.
peartd ; some suppose for the purpose of 'evading
justike, while others think _that he has been sum
marily dealt with', by Anderson's friends. ..!:,
uallttalir EXIGRANT6,—It appdars from 'the
annuli report of the New York German Society,
reed at their anniversary a few eVeginga since,
that ; during. the year, ending at that date; 30,812
German emigrants had arrived.at that port, which
is 12,000 more than last year. A leading object
of this Society is to protect and provide for the
German population, anikparticularly emigrant: —,
Their. expenditures-durinthe year were shout
$5,500, and their receipts so 500 more.

to such individuiils may appear like respect:lbut

- Tug WITE.--A BEING. TO COBS
After all, what is it that man seekein the compan
ionship of a woman? An influence like the gen.
tle dew, and the cheering light, more felt through
out the' whole of his existence, in its softening.
healing. and harmonizing power than acknowledg
ed by any single act or recognised by any certain
rule. It is in fact a being to come home to, in the
happiest sense of tnatexpression, Poetic lays Of
ancient times were wont to tell how the bold war•
"tier, returned from thefight, would doff his plum.
ed helmet,'and reposing from his toils, lay bare his
weary limbs that woman's hand might pour into
their wounds the healing balm. But never wea
ried knight nor warrior covered with the deislof,
the battle field, was more in need of woman's
,soothirig power than are those care-worn sons of
'the soil, Who struggle for the bread of life; in our
more peaceful and enlighiened days. And still,
though the romance of the castle, the hamlet, the ,
waving-plume, and the
"Clarion wild and high,"
•
may all have vanished from the scene, the charm
of woman's influence lives as . brightly in the,pic
lure of domestic joy, as when
of victory on the hero's brow. Nay, mote so, for
there are deeper sensibilities at work, thoughts
more profound and paSsions more intense, in .our
great theatre of intellectual and moral strife, than
where the contest was fdr martial fame, and force
of arms procured fur each competitor his share Of - 1.
glory or of wealth-
' Among all the changt:s which have taken place
in the condition of mankind, it is then not , the
least of woman's privileges, that her influence-re- • .
mains the same cicept Only as it is deepened and
perfected as her own character approaches toward'
,perfection. It is not the least of her privileges, •
