De terred by no danger, awed by no presence, and shrinking from no responsibility, lie mores before us like some grand embodi ment of power. • The nations heave around him, and kings turn pale in his presence.

(Insilco rises clear and distinct ass trumpet call, as he still preached Christ and Him crucified. The whip is laid on his back till the blood starts with every blow, and then his mangled body is thrown into a dungeon ; but at midnight you bear that same calm voice—which .has shaken the world, poured forth in a hymn of praise to God, and lo ! an earthquake rocks the pris on to its foundations; the manacles full from the hands of the captives, the bolts withdraw of themselves, and the massive doors swing back on their hinges. One cannot point to a single spot in his career, where he faltered a moment, or gave way to discouragement or fear.— Through all his perilous life, he exhibited the same intrepidity of character, and lof ty spirit. With his eyes fixed on regions beyond the ken of ordinary mortals, and kindling on glories it was, not permitted him to reveal, he pressed forward to an it corruptible•crown, a fadeless kingdom.— And then his death, how indescribabl sublime ! Napoleon, dying in the midst of the midnight storm, with the last words that fell from his lips a battle-cry, and his pas sing spirit watching, in his delirium, the !torn heads of his mighty columns, as they disappeared in the smoke of the conflict, is a signal that awes and startles us. But behold Paul, also, a war-worn veteran, bat tered with many a scar, though in a spirit ual warfare, looking back not with alarm, but transport; gazing not on the earth, but heaven. Hear his calm, serene voice ringing over the storms and commotion of life: "I am dbw ready to be offered and the tline of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness." No shouts of the foe men, nor smoke or carnage of battle sur rounded hisapirit strugglirs to be free; but troops of shining angels, the smile of God, and the songs of the redeemed—those guarded him and welcomed him home.

James, the youngest, was ilf-tempered and obstinate, but muchzbeloyed by Paul: The teacher, one day, was about to punish James, when Paul stepped tip and said to him—. wish-you would punish me, and spare my role brother." "My dear Paul," said the teacher, in surprise, "you are one of my beet boys.r- You have done nothing to deserve punish ment. I can not punish you, mrboy," "But," said Paul, "I Anil suffer more to see my brother's disgrace and punish ment, thau I should from anything you can do to me." "Why, Paul," said the tesolier f .:"what do you mean Y I oan not puttiab you." "My brother is a little boy, younger than I am," said Paul. "Pray, sir, allow mete take all the imnishment. I can bear any thing from you, sir. Do take me and let my little brother go." "Well, James," said the teacher, "what do you say to this noble offer of Paul r James looked at his brother, and said nothing. "Do let me be punished, and let my dear brother go," urged Paul: "Why, Paul," said the teacher, "do you wish to receive the stripes instead of James F" "Jesus gave his back to the smiters," said Paul, "and received stripes for the good of his enemies. James is my broth er. Oh, sir, do forgive Lim, and let me be punished." "But James does not wish me to forgive Lim," said the teacher: "Why should you feel so anxious about it ? Does he not de- nerve correction ? "Oh, yes sir," said Paul, "he has broken the rules, and is sullen and willful, and somebody must suffer. Do take mo and spare my brother." Paul threw his arms around his brother's neck, and wept as if his heart would break. This was more than James could bear.— His tears began to flow, and ho embraced his generous brother. The teacher clasped both in his arms and forgave James, for he was more sorry for Ida conduct than if ha Lad been Punish ed ten times. WOMAN'S LOVS.—liow few women have ever been in love. How few even marry from election I They marry because they are asked, and because the marriage is sui table. It is their vocation to be married ; parents approve, and they have no other attachment. Any observant person, living in society where there is continual marry ing and giving in marriage, must be struck with this fact. Cupid's quiver must be exhausted, or his arrows blunt, as he pierces few hearts now. I incline to think that a girl really in love, one who bore the evident symptoms of the malady, would be thought very improper. Yet I have often fancied that there must be a man born in the world for every woman; one whom to see would be to love, to reverence, to a dore : one with whom her sympathil would so entirely blend, that she would recognise at once as her true lord. Now and then these pairs come together, and wo to her who meets this other self too late 1 Wo man would be more humble and more merciful, if they did not, through igno rance and thoughtlessness, measure the temptation of others through their owd ex petience.--litleaniares of a Beauty. by Mrs. Crowe. ORIGIN OP FOOLSCAP.—Every school boy knows what foolscap paper is, but we doubt whether one in a hundred that dai ly use it can tell why it was so called. When Oliver Cromwell became Protec tor, after the execution of Charles 1., he caused the stamp of the cap of Liberty to be placed upon the paper used by the Gov ernment. Soon after the restoration of Charles 11., having .00easion. to use some paper for dispatches, some of this Govern ment paper was brought to him. On look ing at it, and discovering the stamp, be in quired the meaning of it, aid on being told, he said, "Take it away; I'll have nothing to do with a fool's cap." Thus originated the term Athol), and which has eines hien applied to a else of writing paper, usually about 16 by 18. in- riever told -a' 1.116.1, 'Mr, Park, his travels in Afiim, - re lates that a party'of Moors having etude a Predattiti attack on the flocks of a Tillage at whicii4m was stopping, a youth of the , place was mortally wounded in the affray.

What is comosionl called friendship is no more than a paripiership ; a reciprocal regard for one another's interests, and an exchange of good Aces; in it word, a mere traffiie, wherein self-love proposes to be a gainer.

A Gono Oars.—Ludicrous blunders sometimes occur in cases where ignorant persons attempt the use of language about the meaning of which they know noth ing. Not long since, while travelling from Pittsburg to Cincinnati, two rather ver dant specimens of.the female sex came on board at one of the landing, who (or the sake of distinction we will call Mary and Jane. Now, Mary had rot her eye teeth, nr, in other words, was acquainted with the rules and regulations which .govern genteel society. Jane, the younger, had never mixed in society many peat extent. and was therefore in bliiisful ignorance as to any of the rules which govent refined society. Her language, too. was only such as she heard among her rustic associates. Mary was aware of this fact, and had there fore cautioned her to observe hbw she (Mary) acted, and to govern herself ac. cordingly. Jan* promised implicit obedi ence. 81tortly after, while seated at the dinner table, the waiter aimed Mary what part of the fowl she would have. She informed him In a very polite man ner that it was ••perfectly iminaterial."— lle accordingly gave her a piece, and then thquired of Jane what part she would choose.

THE WIT 011 A GIRRIIIAN LAWT)II/,—+ There are many stratagems in war, and as many, it may well be said, in love or law. We have heard oftentimes how the strata gems of love have outwitted parental vigi- Imee, hut we have never hoard of a carte where law so effectually aided Hymen as is related in a Bavarian journal.

Before fainting, he seems to have measured the range of the fire with mathemadeal precision. He must have telt, while lying "a few yards from the fire of the enemy," as Falstaff did at Shrewsbury ; "Though I could escape shot free at Concord, Ober , die shot here; here's no scoring butupon the pate. • • I sin as hot as moluip lead, and as heavy, too.

Pierce, as we have seen Hackett. in Fat staff, after the • tell of 'Hotspur. peeping cautiously over the field to see if the storm of strife wait clearing up. When the het, tie war loud in its insitnit.and terrible in ii. carnage, Gen.

Pierce suffered any in the way 'of ewounirig en the Ilet of August, the day after the battle of Cherubim:o,We cannot tell. On the 22nd he formed , one of the board for s arraeging an armistice, end went through these labors, for three con tinuous daya, 'without fainting once.

But, alas ! there came so order to hint to move his brigade, after dark', under the cover of a long range of buildings know as Molina del Rey,"which place,' General Pierce says most expres. •sively, is immediately -under the guns' of Chapultepee." This was enough for Gen.
