ALL II AIL TO THE BRAVE AND FREE.
AJ1 hail to the brave and free,
On land or rolling eea,
Whose hosts advance with sword and lanoe,
In the cause of liberty.
And whether in triumph's car,
They follow vic'trys star,
Orpatriots fall 'neath glory's pall.
They still are the pride of the war.
Then hail th the brave and free,
On land or on rolling sea,
Whose hosts advance with sword and lance,
In the cause of liberty.
Oh, who on the rolls of fame,
. Shall boast the highest name t -Or
who shall bear, from woman fair.
Those smiles which tho world would claim ?
For whom shall the song arise.
Which a people send to the skies?
For whom shall bloom, on the battle tomb
The laurel which never dies ?
Oh. none but the brave and free.
On land, Ac.
Tbn raise our Sag on high,
A meteor 'gainst the sky ;
With rolling drum, we'll proudly come,
To guard it, or to die.
Finn place the lance in rest,
Against a faithful breast;
The trumpets call, obey we all,
And valor shall do tho best.
And then with tho brave and free,
On land, kc.
Ifazarene Women.
Miss ITnmley, in her journal of travels in
Palestine, gives the following description of
the women of the city of Xazaretb. There had
been a wedding on the afternoon of her arri
val; and in the evening, thebride with abundle
of clothes on her head was escorted by a troop
of girls, with music, round the town to the
house of her husband, where they remained
clapping their hands and with a few drums
succeeded in making a great noiso until a late
hour.
The Syrian Greek women, are beyond com
parison, the loveliest in the world: we saw
many of those of N'azaretb, who came down
with their pitchers to the fountain of Nahor
lor water, in whom were visibly united all that
painters may in vain endeavor to picture all
that poets dream. Their features combine the
perfect proportion of the Greek model, with
the character and expression of the daughters
of Israel ; their figures, the united delicacy
and voluptuousness of form which the finest
Grecian statues possess. The costnme of those
we saw this evening was well suited to its
wearers. Their long hair, which was plaited
fell over their shoulders and was in many in
stances ornamented with a great many gold se
quins, and some pearls ; the others, flowers of
brilliant . -hues replaced the pearls and gold,
but all wore the full loose trowsers drawn
tight at the ancle, which not unfrequently
was encircled with silver bracelets. The pet
ticoat reaching only to the knees and the up
per vest open, at the breast.
A Protestant Cow. An Irishman who is
the proprietor of a boarding house on the C
O. Railroad, east of this city, recently pur
chased a cow, which being rather wild, he had
to halter l.er to lead her home. His better
half opened the conversation, thus:
'Well, Pat, where did you get that brute?"
Sure, I got her of Mr. II."
"What!" said she, "did you buy a cow from
a Protestant I But as you have done so, it
won't be any harm to put a little holyater on
her."
"Faith, that's well thought of," said Pat;
so, without relinquishing his hold of the brute,
he held out his hand to receive the holy water,
and rubbed it on the animal's back, making
the sign of the cross at the time of performing
the operation.
It so happened that the woman handed him
by mistake, a bottle of vitriol, and Pat being
unaware of the fact, felt astonished that the
cow should wince so under the operation, but
on rubbing the supposed holy water a second
time, the infuriated animal kicked up her
heels, aad broke loose from Pat, gi eat to the
astonishment of Biddy, who exclaimed:
"Ilowly mither of Moses ! Isn't the Prot
estant strong in her yet ?"
Certificate of Character. A Iloosier
out west was called upon the stand to testify
to the character of a brother Iloosier. The
testimony was as follows :
" How long have you known Bill Whack ?"
" Ever since he was born.'
" What is his general character ?"
" Letter A. Xo. 1, 'bove par a great ways, I
judge."
"Would you believe him on oath 7"
" Yes, sir-ee on or off, or any other way, I
conclude."
What, in your opinion, are his qualifica
tions as to a good character ?"
" Tie is the best shot on our prairies or in
tne woods. lie can shave the eye-winkers of a
wolf as far as a shoot in' iron'll carry a ball.
He can drink a quart of grog any day, and
chaws backer liks a hos3."
The Crystal Paxace. Seen the Crystal
Palace, Tommy ?' asked a little urchin ot a
newsboy.
Oh, yes ; I've been up several different
times,' replied another newsboy as they both
stood in Nassau street waiting for the Extras
to come out.
Wall, I know a man that would give fiv
hundred dollars to see that place.'
You do, Jim V
Yes-sir-ee.'
And you know it, Jim ?'
Yes.'
Bet a quarter on it that you don't.'
Done ;' and the money was put up in Billy
Mulligan's hand.
Now, who is he V
Why he's a blind man-'
That 'tother fellow was badly covered.

THE BAPTISM OF POCHAHONTAS.
The name of Pochahontas has descended to
posterity as the great benefactress, the tutela
ry genius of the first successful colony planted
within the limits of the United States, who
when famine raged, or conspiracy menaced
with swift destruction, ever interposed her be
nign and gentle influence to supply their wants
and ward off their danger. From all that his
tory and tradition have preserved, as well as
from the testimonials of the object of her kind
ness and protection, from the particulars of
her life that have come down to us, and from
every authentic memorial now extant, she ap
pears to have been both in mind and person,
one of the choicest models the hand of nature
ever formed. With the purest simplicity she
united the kindest heart, and to the timidity
of a spotless virgin she joined a sagacity of
mind, a firmnesss of'spirit, and an adventurous
daring, which more than once, when the exis
tence of the colony was at stake, prompted
her to traverse the midnight forest alone, and
brave the indignation of her kindred, to givo
advice aud warning.
Inseparably interwoven as is the name and
history of Pochahontas with the very existence
of the first permanent Christian community of
this great confederation, and clothed as she is
with every attribute to call forth our venera
tion and gratitude, she most undoubtedly de
serves the dignity of a historical character.
Though a simple Indian maid, her life aud ac
tions are closely associated with events, which
in their consequences, have assumed a magni
tude that fully entitles her to be placed among
those who exercised influence in the destinies
of states and the course of human events. She
was, therefore deemed a fit subject for a Na
tional Picture painted by order of Congress,
to commemorate the history and actions of
our ancestors.
But she had another claim, not less venera
ble and touching, to the remembrance of pos
terity, and which addresses itself to all Chris
tian people and churches. She stands foremost
in the train of those wandering children of the
forest who have at different times few indeed,
aud far between been snatched from the f angs
of a barbarous idolatry to become the lambs iu
the fold of the Divine Shepherd. She therefore
appeals to our religious as well as our patriotic
sympathies, and is equally associated with the
rise and progress of tho Chriatiau church, as
with the political destinies of the U. States.
It was a memorable Sabbath moruing when
the souud of the church bells echoed through
the silent forest about Jamestown, to gather to
its consecrated aisles the first dedicated to
the worship of the living God in British Amer
ica the pioneers of civilization and Christian
ity in the new world, to witness the sublime
spectacle of this converted heathen girl, Po
chahontas the daughter of Powhatan "the
first Christian of her nation," turning from
her idols to God.
How long and earnestly the "winning of
this one soul" had been looked to in the colo
ny, and by its friends and promoters in Eng
land, numerous letters and chronicles of that
day express in terms that cannot be mistaken
for transient impulse. They placed their hopes
of lasting prosperity in bringing the savage
within the influence of the light of the gospel;
and when the pure minded girl Knelt at the
altar of God, they indulged in pious exulta
tion at the glorious beginning and prospect of
peace, security and prosperity, that seemed to
dawn upon the colony.
In obedience to the regulation of the town,
the captain of tho watch had gone his usual
round, to shut the ports and place sentinels,
and the bell having tolled the last time had
searched all the houses of the town, to com
mand every one, of what quality soever, (the
sick and hurt excepted,) to repair to church,
after which he accompanied all the guards,
with their arms (himself being last) into the
church, and laid the keys before the governor.
The sergeants took their stations, and the In
dians gathered about the place of ceremouy, as
Rolfe supported his destined bride to the rude
baptismal font, hewn from an oak of her native
forest. Nanttquaai, her favorite brother, whom
Smith calls "the most msinliest, boldest spirit
he ever saw in a savage," stood nearest to her
own kindred; an elder sister, with her Indian
boy, sat in mute, anxious interest and curiosity
in front, while her uncle, the sullen, cunning,
yet daring Opechankanouga shrunk back, and
prooably even then brooded over the deep laid
plan of massacre which he so fearfully execu
ted years after, when that spotless Indian girl
had gone to reap her reward in heaven.
The book of prayer is closed, for not until
after that time was there an established form
fortho baptism of those of riper years iuthe ser
vice of the church of England. She bears upon
her forehead the record of her vow, she renoun
ces the idols of her nation has confessed the
faith of Christ, and is baptised. The Indian
child clings closer to his mother, a gay snowy
mantle of swan skin, tipped with the plumage
that may be still seen among the thickets and
along the shores about Jamestown,fallingfrom
her shoulders, discovers to her own the cos
tume of her adopted people, and an unguard
ed movement of momentary excitement among
the savage spectators is repeated through the
congregation, as hands fall instinctively on
match-lock and sword-hilt. At the movement
of the picture another, and she is received
into the fold of Christ, and as pure and beauti
ful a spirit as ever knelt at his Holy Sacrament.
To-morrow- To-morrow is like a juggler
that deceives us ; a quack that pretends to cure
us; and thin ice that will not bear our weight.
It is a fruit beyond our grasp; a glittering
bubble that bursts and vanishes away; a Wil-o'-the
wisp that leads many into the mire ; and
a rock on which many marriners have struck,
and suffered shipwreck. It is au illusion to
all who neglect the present hour, and a reality
to those only who improve to-day.
