. '.LAND OF LIBERTY.
To Liberty's enraptured sight,:
ri When firt fcolumbi,8 region shone, ,.
She hailed it from her starry height, -,-
And, smiling, claim'd it as her own. " -"Pair
land," the goddess cried, hbefree..
6oil of my choice! to fame arise!" ; -She
spoke, and heaven's minstrelsy
Swelled the loud chorus thjongh the skies
All hail, forever great and fret,
Columbia land or libertt.
Columbia's genina heard the strain,
And proudly raised his drooping crest, ,
His sons impatient fill'd the plain,
While painted high each patriot's breast;
Their fetters they indignant spurt'd,
They waved their falchions in the air, -And
where the Goddess' altar bnrn'd,
' Prom kneeling warriors rose the prayer,
- ; . , To die be ours, if thou art free, ,
Colombia LAND OF LIBERTY, v.
War blew tho clarion long and loud :
Oppression led his legions on ;
To battle rush'd tha patriot throng,
And soon the glorious day was won
Eaeh bleeding freeman smiled in death ;
. Flying he saw his country 1 foes,
And wafted by hUl-ticst breath.
To heaven the cheerful pean rose
Content to die, for thou art free !
; Columbia LASD OF LIBERTY.
And shall we ever dim the fires
That flame on Freedom's hnndred shrines?
Ehall glory's children shame their sires ?
Shall cowards spring from heroes' loins? -
?io, by the blood our fathers shed,
O Freedom! in thy holy cause,
When streaming from the martyr'd dead ,
. : It tcal'd and sanctified thy laws , , .
We swear to keep thee great and free!
, Columbia land or liberty.

Hikts for Omsibus Ridees. On 1 getting
in, care neither for toes or knees of the pas
sengers, bnt dive your way headlong in, keep
ing a decent equilibrium by the arms, chests,
or even faces of those seated.
' Seat yourself with a jerk, pushing against
one neighbor, and thrusting yourself into the
side of another. You will thus get plenty of
room. . : .
If possible, enter with, a stick or umbrella,
pointed at full length ; so that, by any sudden
move of the vehicle, you may thrust it into
some one's stomach.
- When seated, occupy, if possible, the room
of two ; your ride will thereby be rendered
more comfortable. .
Open or shut the windows as it suits you ;
men with colds, or women with toothache,
nave iro Wim in omnibuses- If they don't
like it, they can get out ; no one compels them
lo ride. '
Young bucKs may stare any decent woman
out of countenance, put their legs up along
the seats, and if nessary, wipe their boots
on tk seats. . They are only covered with
Brussels or Wilton carpeting.
Most 'Excellent Advice. A handsome
young widow of our acquaintance applied to a
physician to relieve her of three distressing
complaints with which she was afflicted.
'In the first place said she, I have little or
no appetite. What shall I take for that Doc
tor?' For that, madum, you shall take air and ex
ercise. And, Doctor, I am quite fidgetty at night,
and afraid to lie alone. What shall I take for
that V
'For that, madam, I can only recommend
that you take a husband!'
'Fie! Doctor. But I have the blues, terri
bly. What shall I take for that ?'
For that, madam, you have, besides taking
air, exercise and a ! husband, to take The1
Newspaper!'
Makiso Believe. 'Is he alive V- inquired
a little boy the other day, as he gazed on a
large turtle, crawling in front of a restaurant.
'Alive!' exclaimed a fat gentleman, who
was also looking at the fat monster with in
tense interest, 'sartingly, sartingly, boy. He
acts like a live turtle don't he'?' . ' ' '"
'Why, yes, he acts like one,' answered the
little querist ; 'but I thought perhaps he might
be makiu believe.' . - .
CP"' Well, Mrs. Mundy, how are you this
evening V
'Oh, 31 rs. , I am very unwell; am quite
out of spirits. .
- 'Bless you, ma'am, don't take on so,' said
the servant, 'there's three bottles left yet.'
, . 'Go down stairs directly, BettyV
CyJSvery hour that a man is in debt is a
year spent in slavery. Your creditor is your
master j. it matters not whether a kind or se
vere one, the sense of obligation you incur
saps the feeling of manly independence, which
is the first charm of youth ; and, believe me,
it is always through the rents in moral feeling
that our happiness comes out quickest. ; .,
- Scbipiu.be ros. it. A distinguished writer
says "There is but one passage in the Bible
where the girls are commanded to kiss the
me, and that is in the golden rule, 4 Whatso
ever ye would that n should do unto you,
do ye even so to them.' "
Scblime. A down east editor, in a leader
on the momentous subject of civilization, per
jpetratesthe following : The inarch of civili
zation is onward, onward, like the slow: 'but
intrepid tread of a jackass towards a peck of
oats.'
v CTTbe editor of the Ohio Statesman asks
the following question : If a fellow has noth
ing when he gets married, and the gal has
nothing, it her thingthtzzia cr his tbirgs hem?'
"We go ia fcr tia negative. '-' " ; '
; What CossrrriTTEa a Gzhtlkxas. The
Washington correspondent of .the New York
Sun says: ; , .
; 1 he Colonization meeting at the Copitol
last evening was very interesting. One of
the speakers, with a view of showing the stan
dard of morality amcng the African Princes
their idea of what constitutes a gentleman re
Iated the following anecdote:
A Missionary, at an inteyiew with one of
the Princes, incidently spoke of certain gen
tlemen In the United States.
The Prince said, Ah, I wish I were a gen
tleman' .
The Missionary was surprised, and asked
him if he had not great wealth and plenty of
servents.
Yes.' said the Prince, 'but that does not
make me a gentleman.,
'What does, then' replied the Missionary,
'make a gentleman?'
A proper number of wives,' said the Prince.
'Why, how many wives have you?' -
'Only two" said thj Prince, 'but I must have
six before I can be a gentleman.'
The idea of it, requiring six wives to make
a gentleman, create l no little mirth among
the female portion of the audience. There
were some hard looks at the bachelors," as
much as to say. 'What miserable creatures
must you be then?'
A Discriminating Shot. In a speech made
by Col. Bingaman, lately, somewhere in Mis
sissippi, he told the following good story.
We leave the politicians to make the applica
tion of it, each to suit himself:
Two men, Jones and Martin, went deer hunt
ing. After remaining together a while, they
separated, and soon Jones, hearing the report
of Martin's gun, went to him. Seeing no
game, he asked him if he had shot anything.
'Xo-o,' replied Mai tin very carelessly, 'did'nt
shoot any thing.' What did you shoot at?
asked Jones Martin seemed confused and eva
ded a reply. Jones looked around a little and
saw a calf crazing a short distance oil". 'Did
yon shoot at that calf V asked Jones. Y-e-s,
replied Martin, I shot at it.' 'You didn't hit
it, though,' remarked Jones. Xo, I didn
hit it,' and Martin went on to explain. 'You
see,' said he, 'I was uncertain whether it was
a calf or a deer, and shot so as to hit it if it
teas a deer, and to miss it if it uuis a calf "
Dr. Ckvsty growing more Facetious.-
Have you ever remarked' Dr. Crusty,' quoth
Mrs. Stimps yesterday, 'that my children Lave
different ways from most people's ?'
'Frequently,' retorted the doctor.
'Entirely different ?' continued Mrs. Stimp.
'Entirely different,', echoed the doctor.
'Well, how do you account for it, Doctor ?'
asked Mrs. Stimp, inquiringly.
'Because,' rejoined the doctor, 'you have
humored them so much that they have ways of
their own. I noticed it particularly when little
Benny threw that apple core at you, right -1n
your faco, and told you he'd do it again if he
wanted to."
Mrs. tiiBp has not alluded to her children
since. JV.O. Pic.
Witty Repartee. The Abbe Keiguies, Se
cretary of the French Academy, received one
day in his hat the subscription toward certain
public improvements, and not knowing that a
certain avaricious man present had contributed
his share, he presented his hat to him the
second time. The miser assured hira he had
already given money, to which the Abbe re
plied, 'I believe it, but I have not seen it.'
Fortenelle, who was by his side, exclaimed,
'Well, I have seen it, but I don't believe it.'
A Kiss. The following answer was made
by a gentleman to a young lady, who had sent
him a kiss in a letter.
s Thanks to my gentle absent friend
A kiss, you in your letter send :
But, ah ! the thrilling charm is lost
' In kisses that arrive by post ;
That fruit can only tasteful be
When gathered, melting, from the tree!
C7 A person out west met with an amusing
rebuff a short time since. Walking 'tip to. a
quiet old gentlcaian in the midst of a crowd,
he held out his hand and remarked w ith a
smile 'My dear sir, I cannot call your name,
but I am sure we have been together some
where.' '.!'
'Perhaps wc have,' said the old gentleman,
'for I have been in some very bad company in
my day !' ;

from tho known talents of his contributors, that he

He shall not, however, hesitate to publish, from

writers, provided tho pieces have never before ap
peared in print in this country. Essays on impor

play the choicest periodical.
The Editor does not feel, that with his own rea
ders, he can increaso his claims to respect by in
sisting on any very great superiority of -Graham'
over several similar publications, but thinks ho
may safely confide in their friendship for tho
Magazine, and in its past management for its pre

of an extended circulation .in a country where
readers are multiplying so rapidly..
Of tho January number the first odition will be
30,000 copies, and the editor trusts his old friends
will bo so prompt in renewing old clubs, and ex
tending the list among new ones, that the first
