' li&M oa the Death of "Weiie" B...... and
Annie 21.... .
'Tis hard to part with those we love,
" Though 'tis the Savior's will;
Bat if we always heavenward move,
We can behold them still.
'Tis sweet to look on them in death,
And think of where they've gone ;
Were they not numbered with the dead,
Still suffering would bo borne.
Deep in the earth they now are laid,
The mould is on them spread
To him that form'd to him that made,
Their spirits both have fled.
And now dear parents, weep no more
For those we know you love ;
Bright angels welcomed "YTesie" home,
To that bright world above.
Sweet Annie too, is now with God,
Her spirit rose on high,
And there 6ho will forever be
An angel in the sky. Nkttif.

SexatorG wis 's Talk with Bccuaxas. The
correspondent of the New York Evening Post
says that the President asked Senator Gwin
the other day, "How comes on the Pacific
Railroad Bill V The Senator replied : "A
good deal mixed, Mr. President. I am cer
tain, Sir, if you had done half as much to for
ward the measure (the justness of which you
never expressed a doubt about) as you did to
urge the passage of Lecompton(tho righteous
ness of which you did think doubtful) a Paci
fic Railroad would to-day be a reality, so far
as its passage is concerned." The Presidont
chaDged the subject.
One of the churches in Columbus, Ohio, is
supplied with quite respectable parlors, near
its entrance, where once a month or oftener,
thmembers of the congregation meet in so
cial circle, have a good supper, and enjoy each
other's smiles and conversation to the fullest
extent. A tax of a dime or a quarter from
each attendant provides for the expense, and
gives a largo sum annually for the support of
the church. At Columbus, in the church to
which we refer, $600 was raised in one year.
A Blockade or the TJ. S. A pamphlet has
Just appeared in Paris, entitled "A Letter to
' His Majesty the Emperor, on French Influence
In America." The writer, who styles himself
"A Man of the Latin Race," recommends that
the United States be immediately blockaded,
"and yon will see these feoblo and imbecile
people eat each other up. Shut them out from
the rest of the world, and they will soon dis
appear from the face of. the earth." It is
quite clear that all the fools are not dead yet.
Thbs Toxsaob Tax. The PbiladelphiaVe

The Vicksburg, Mississippi, Sun of the 4th
ult., informs us that a runaway negro was
caught at Black Hawk, a few days age, with
the hand of a white man in his pocket, It is
aaid the negro confessed that he had exumed
the body, and cut the hind off the dead man's
arm, to act as a charm in keeping the dogs
from following his track, and on the strength
of his confession be was hung. A white silk
glove was on the hand when it was found.
A New York paper says that Rev. Mr. Cor
bitt, an eloquent Methodist preacher of that
city, was formerly a tailor. That class of me
chanics naturally aspire to tha cloth, and its
adoption by them is nearly invariably attend
ed with brilliant success. The best volume of
sermons in the language is the production of
Jer. Taylor.

azine, to be called The. 'Great Republic' Monthly.
It is intended to make this magazine superior
in every respect to anything everXefore issued in
this country. The general scope of its character
can best be understood by its name. It will be thor
oughly national in no wise sectarian, iftid wholly
impersonal. It will offer to the writers and think
ers of this Union a common field, where they can
meet on the highest ground of cotemporary liter
ature. It will aim to gather about it every varie
ty of intellect. The range of articles will be a
wide one, covering, among other grounds, Essays,
Sketehes. Hamerons Tales, Stories. Historical In

Articles, Travels, Table Talk, Dramas, Politics.
Poems, Ballads, Stanzas, Sonnets. Music, Corres
pondence, Gossip, etc., etc. The Magazine will be
profusely illustrated in the highest style of wood
engraving. The Literary department will present
greater variety, combined with more thorough ex
cellence, it is believed, than ever before offered in
the American public in a single periodical. Each
number will contain an original piece of music,
composed expressly for this wor'i. Of the superior
excellence of the Magazine in every respect, and
of tho certainty of its permanent success,, very
little more need be said. The Term and general
