Some time after this. the old man expe rienced one 0! thou: inexplicable sensa lions which, to certain powerful organiza tions, are a premier! ol death. He'called his servant. an ollereton, who had wai ted on him lor lorty years. with the pa} tienre 0! a beaver, J; the fidelity of a dog. 'Jean.’ said he. laying his hand on the shoulder of his ancient serviror, ' remem ber well what I am going to say to thee. nml swear to me to do what I am going to ask ol thee.’ , ‘ I wear it." said the Breton. 'lf I should die suddenly, make me take an ice as soon as it shall be evident that I am dead.’ -7. The Breton, accustomed to passive obe ’dience. promiSed to do so without making any observation. ‘ From that day, every evening during a whole month. the notary repeated his commands to the old servant. One morning the notary was struck with apoplexy. The physician declared that every remedy was useless, and that it would be impossible to call him to‘lile again, even [or five minutes. The rattling in the old notary’s throat was frightful. . Ilia bloodshot eyes stared upon the Bre ton with terrific fixity. Fora moment he ‘raiaed himsellon his elbow, reached his hand toward the servant, and said to him in a voice which seemed like the last Cry 0! the death agony. ' Remember." And he lell back on the pillow a Me less mass. He was dead. It was known that the notary had ma ny arrangements to make; he had he'- quently stated his intention ol leavme leg acies to a grandson whose mother was dead, and to several ol the servants. In this patriarchal family. in iihich respect for the paternal authority was preserved entire, the old notary’s death excited. in, the mind of his eldest son, a pious regret‘l that he was unable to obey wishes, which, though'he had partly divined them. he did not clearly comprehend. ' A protound srlence reigned in the cham— ber of death. that terrible silence which is interrupted only by subs. Jean, kneeling in a corner, was praying With that lervent ardnr which the Breton peasantsdrink in with their tno'her’s milk. When he had done praying he arose. -' Monsieur.’ said he to his son, 'this is he momentv.’ he son looked at the servant as one who does not comprehend. ' Yes tnnnsieur.’ continued Jean; ‘ per haps it is a sacrtlege. but I have aworn;l must nbey.’ . The son suddenly remembered the be. liel “huh the old notary hatl entertained since the visit of the Italian Count. - Thou art a brave. a worthy aervitor,’ said he to Jean; 'but dost thou believe that what my poor lather has demanded ol thee. can possibly be ol any ure P’ ‘I believe in God.’ replied the Breton ; ‘ il my action is criminal, I have prayed that the lault may rest with me only. I must tlo as I pmmised.’ ‘ Go then,’ said the son. Juan went out, and soon returned, with tan H 0 upon a tray. He approached the lttotaty‘s bed. and raised tlte sheet which a pious hand had thrown over the lace.— l'l‘nc leatuves uercnlready stamped with llhat character at eerene grandeur and ma jesty, which death imprints upun the fore head of men. ' Jean laid his hand upon the nntary'a breast ; it was already cold as marble; the heart beat notlnnger. Stiffness had enter ed Into the limbs when the vital warmth tlepar'ed. ‘ The old servant opened the lips of the dead. and slipped nepOonful of ice be tween his teeth. Jean himself was an pale as the corpse 0! his master. He continu ed his work, which borrowed. from the end which he proposed to himself. a char acter of mystery, eolemnity. and expectat tion. Snddany. a shudder passed throngh the frame of the notary; he opened his eyes and sat up. ' ‘My father!’ cried the son} springing toward the bed.

The following extract from some re marks made by General Pierce. of New Hampshire, at his public reception in Con cord. on the 26th uult . shows how many ofour brave soldiers died to Mexico: And Concord, too. was well, represen» ted among them. There was Henry Cald ‘well—one ol the bravest and most deter mined soldiers in the army. There was Sergeant Stuttell, who was shot plump through the heart at Clierubusco. As his last breath flowed. he whispered to me tlo the boys sav I behaved well P 11l have. write home to my people, Then Ithere was Sergeant Pike, who had his leg shot oil in advancing alone on a causeway swept by three batteries. The amputa tions. which did not answer the purpose. were performed. and a third was deemed hopeless. Die he must, it was thought. I know better than they do. he said. I’ll ltry another; and when they cut it again I hope they will cut it so that it will stay cut. A third amputation was performed. and he lived through it. He and the oth ers named were printers. In the new lev ies. the printers exceeded by twenty per cent., those of any other vocation; and on laccount of their intelligence and high spirit they have proved the most elficientsol. diers in the field. Gen. Pierce also named Brown & Swett, of Connecticut, as particularly distinguish ed; and Captain Cady and Lieutenants Potter and Dana. of "mold line. Nor did he. forget Sergeant West. of Manchester. who fell at the head of his column, and was always there when there was any figh ting to be done. But in mentioning thel men 0' New Hampshire. or of New Eng land, he would claim J for them no superi ority over others. The sresent army was made up of artillery. cavalry. the army and the new levies, representing every State of the Uhron. and it was' not in tho-power of man to say which ltad done the best ser vice. 'l‘o many it had been a matter of great surprise that the new levies should have fought as they had done. But it isl in the race. He would take lrom the su dience before him a 'regiment who would do ths'same. In executing manmuvres; and forming combinations in front of an enemy. by wheeling. countertnarchrng, &c., old soldiers are undoubtedly better; lbut when it came to close fighting. as in storming or charging. it was the man that did the work and notthe manoeuvring; and In such work the men who had never be fore been under fire or handled a bayonet, stnod well side by side wtth the long train ctl soldier. Another cause of the success of our troops. new and old. was the conduct oi the officers, who, from the highest to the lowest, led and cheered on their columns. Hence the disproportion in the loss of offi cers and men. Hence the loss oftha: most brave and accomplished offi:er'ol' the tenl new regiments—Colonel Ransom. He ' k‘ept pressing lip—pressing up—-ul| he was Iho! dead or lhe head of his column. The same War; [we ofCol. Marlin Scou, lhe firol ehol in the army—a son of N. Hamp shire.

This is a very important qdehtion for our wise men ‘to look into; and lortha reason that. as through more‘lhan three some years and ten ’0! our national exis tence we have never'once been in the right. It‘ is highly important lor them to consider whether they can tor'm or devise any plan by which We may. at some time. be'right lnr once. lt is n quellinnlnr the counsels of our wise men. For seventy-tho years we have never yet been right. but always wrong. Cannot their united'wisd'om‘dé vise some way or means by which,‘t’o‘r one time we may get in the right. “"25me go back to the days of IWa‘shmgton'hhd John Adams—the father of that venerable man there—and the days ‘nl'Matlison and Jeflerson. and all the departed patrtots"ot our Revolution. and listen a little to what they said. because they all denied the power which was then claimed—the di vine right nl king: to control the'pcople. Yes, sir. they had the audacity to c’om'a out and to proclaim to the world that we. ——the Old Thirteen—we have a-righ’t'ft'o be tree and independent, and we Will lat?- knowlcdge your divine right to control us no longer. Yes, they did this. But in all this they had their opponents nml. who looked upon the ground taken by these Presidents and sages as wrong.".as wicked. as against the authority of'Hesv en. and who thought that it was all done under the frown ol the Almighty. “ ‘ Why. sir. here was the man Adams. who. in he sure, had some hand in produ cing the Revolution ; he wrote a greatitna ny fine articles in a book called the Fed eralist. (I wish it had some other name';) but this man, alter the‘ Government'bad endured for more than a quarter of scan tury. brought us 'into the greatesldange’r otan unconstitutional and a wicked war. Thus. sir, we were wrong in the Revolu- . tion. wrong under the'eltler Adams; and wrong again in 1812, when the man Mad ison had the audacity to do the same thing: and I see a man over there (lookingtowatd a part of the hall where Mr. Clay stood among some ol his friends) who had the audacity to sustain him. (I wish he would only do the same now.) In sotne'portio'ns ol the country this war otlBl2 wasd'eem ed so wicked that they kept. their‘militia marching rounrl and round the boundaries ofthetr own State. but torbade them to cross the line. The war was so impious. so wicked. so against all, the precepts‘of Christianity, so Heaven-daring. that it was wrong for a moral and, religious people to rejoice in the victories of our own armies. Sir. the war was declared wrong from the pulpit. wrong from the stumps, wrong ev’ cry where—all wrong, all wicked. Sir, not only that; so wrong was it held to be that they held :1 Convention at a place caller] Hurllnrtl,to take sides against their own country and in tat-or of the enemy. it was held by people so religions that they raised blue lights on their coast to give notice to the enemy whenever one of our gallant little barques entered on the broad field at the ocean that they might be token. ‘ ' ’ Sir. It was held most wicked for that wicked President "to take the ground that Great Britain had no right to clear the deck! of our ships of what men'shechose (0 select. and take them by torce into her own cervico. They claimed the right to bond our voasels ot 'w'nr because the had a shooger fleet than we had.
