"LOYLST TEOU ESE?"
BT BfART IIO WITT.
Mother ! bending o'er the cradle
Of thy earliest Lorn,
Watching till tbe blue eyes open
To the rosy dawn ;
Pouring fcrth its purest fountain,
Earth's idolatry :
Listen to the voice that rnwrniurcth,
" Lovcst thou me?"
Sister! by the " tniJuhjht taper,"
Counting labor light,
For thy cluldhood's best beloved,
Iu his manhood":; might ;
Still for Lira thiue eye to Heaven
Lifting tenderly ;
Back to thec that whisper stcaleth,
"Lovest thou Mo?"
Maiden ! with a deeper trusting
Than a sister's own :
With the silent stars to watch thee,
Dreaming all alone ;
Dreaming of the star that lighteth
Earth and Heaven to thee !
Start not when another tskoth,
"Lovcst thcu Me?"
Watcher ! by the fainting night laisp
O'er a fainter gleam,
Flickering on the lips thou lovcst
Love's last earthly beam
With that last, convulsive quivering.
To thine agony,
Comes the comforter's still whimper,
"Lovcst thou Me f"
Oh ! our hearts by earthly loving,
Learn the love of Heaven ;
Not to weaa from the Creator,
Was his creature given ;
lie who tunes our spirits' harp-strings
To such harmony,
Well may breathe upon theni sweetly
"Lovest thou Me ?"
Answer to a Health to my Erc-thcr.
BT WM. It. SUnil. OF W1300XSIX.
Yes, brother, quaff the gcn'rcu3 bowl,
Though tears have mingled with the wine ;
Our pledge let each congenial soul
Respond Thy joys, thy griefs, are mine.
Our suns of youth rose brightly glfcaming,
And promised flowers in every path ;
How soon aroused from blissful dreaming,
We struggled with the whirlwinds' wrath !
Now, in the world alone, my brother,
Two scions of one parent tree,
Soon shall the earth, our common mother,
Reclaim her own, and set us free !
Religion teaches souls immortal
To bear submissive worldly pain,
ForsoariDgup to heaven's portal,
Tho puro in bliss shall live again.
Then let us hear our griefs awhile
No cause exists to shed a tear,
When wo look backward with a smile,
And forward gazo without a fear.
From America's Own.
A NIGHT AT A GAI.IIIJG TA3LE
Ail EiIsortc of F.enl X.lfe
BT WAT-TEH OIIA1IAAI.
A few years since the stesmer3 en the west
ern rivers were harvest fields that yielded gamb
lers golden fruit. Many a young man, who had
been entrusted with produce to dispose of at New
Orleans, has fallen a victim to the wily gambler
on board of western boats. The thirst for wealth;
gold, glittering gold has hurled hundreds of
promising young men over the precipice down
the dark abyes of Vice. They risked not only
their all, but more than their all, on the hazr.ard
of their die, and Fate decided against them.
Thus placed, they lacked the moral courage to
retara to their employer, Lut choose to float
with tho cvilcumat out into the Sea of Deprav
ity. In tho year Iol a. party were seated around
a table in the social hall cf a steamer on the
Mississippi, playing cards. They Lad played
from about 9 o'clock in the evening till near mid
night. Tks party consisted of four persons ;
two of whom were notorious gamblers, the otlic
two were frank, unsuspecting countrymen who
bad been to New Orleans to dispose of produce
and were returning horuc. At near midnight
one of the countrymen arose frcm the table, say
ing to his partner :
" Luck's against us, Bob ! Might as well try
to beat the devil himself as these fellows !"
" Oh, for God'a sake, don't quit yet ! Give
"No use, Bob, I'm nigh busted! Pretty near
clean swept out."
Despair seemed to be written upon every linea
ment of Bob's features, whea he found that he
could not persuade his friend to play. At last,
he said to several who had been watching the
game :
" Won't some of you gentlemen take my part
ner's place?"
There was a pause of a few moments, then a
young man, scarcely onc-and-twenty, took the
vacant seat, saying :
" If youhavo no objections, 111 try my hand."
" Agreed !"
" Here bar-keeper, give us another pack cf
cards," said the young man.
Another pack was brought the stranger open
ed them, end then handed them back, saying : "
" I want a pack of another color. These are
the same color as these they have been playing
wiih. Wc might as well chance the color, just
fur luck."
The gamblers exchanged glances.
Another pack was brought the game com
menced and the gamblers wen. Bob grew uneasy.
" Come, let's double the stake !" said the
stranger, whoso turn it was to deal.
" Just as you like," replied the gamblers.
The stakes were doubled, and the stranger and
his partner won. A gleam of sunshine illumed
Bob's countenance. Another game played, Bob
and his partner pgain suceessTul. The stakes
increased the gamblers losers.
"Bar-keeper, bring us another pack ef cards
of a different color from these," said the stran
ger, who was about to deal.
One of the gamblers looked at his partner
while a dark frown overspread his features.
Three more games were played and Bob had
retrieved his losses. The stranger again called
for another pack cf cards. At this enc cf the
gamblers exclaimed :
No more changing: Wc play with these!"
' You may play with what you please," re
plied the young man, as an almost imperceptible
smile passed over her features, " But if my
partner and myself play we must l ave another
pack."
Bob looked at his partner and then at George.
' Stick to what yeur partner says, Bob. He's
the right stripe and will come out head horse, r
I'm a nigger !" exclaimed George, slapping Bob
on the .shoulder.
" I agree to what m)r partner says," 6aid Bob,
in reply to the gambler's looks of inquiry.
The glumbleis exchanged looks and then con
sented to the arrangement.
Four more games were played and each time
Bob and the stranger won.
It was again the stranger's deal. One of the
gamblers watched him closely, and suddenly ex
claimed " You young villain ! Cheating arc you ?"
" Playing with you at your own game. I
have watched you all i:ight. and saw you cheat
my partner and his friend, liven now yov've
got a dozen cards in the sleeve of your coat. I
never play oa the square with thieves !" replied
the stranger hastily, as a deadly paleness stole
over ills leatures.
A knife gleamed in tho gambler's hand, and,
as the blow aimed at the stranger descended, a
dozen cards fell from his sleeve on the table. This
was noticed by all the by-standers. The stran
ger avoided the blow, and with a rnpid move
ment caught the assailant by the throat, giving
his cravat a suddcu twist, and Hey both rolled
on the floor.
While this was taking place, the prxctators
prevented the other gambler from inteifering,
and in this struggle a number of cards dropped
from his coat sleeve. The social hall was now a
scene cf confusion.
"Game! clear grit, by thunder!" exclaimed
George, as he with others separated the combat
ants.
The gambler's face and breast was covered
with blood as was also th' young stranger's hand.
" lias the white-livered thief stabbed you, my
young hickory ?" inquired George as he pulled
the young man towards the light.
" No, I guess not."
But the blood droppeel fast from the young
man's hand, and upon washing off the blood it
was discovered that his right thumb was nearly
severed. In the scuffle he succeeded m disarm
ing the gambler and thus probably saved his
life. The wound was dressed and bound up,
and the stianger returned to tho Social IIa.ll.
The gambler who w as chaffing with rage, eyed
him with a demoniac look then shaking his first
at him exclaimed
" I allow no man to call we a thief, and you
must give me satisfaction !"
"I'll give you any satisfaction you want, ynu
cowardly cat-throat." was the reply.
" Ann if he can't I'm the chap that will !" ex
claimed George, throwing oil his coat.
" Stop my friend, this is my quarrel, and I'll
allow no one to take my place i:i it !"
" Good ' my young Davy ; but that fellow ii
big enough to swallow you."
" Yes, butir.ay-bc he caa't digest mc."
" It wouldn't "be a fair fight," interposed scv
cadl by-standers. . .
" Well, there is ona thing that modifies brute
force arid places all on an equal footing."
"That's the talk, Davy. Ycu'r my man!"
exclaimed George, slapping the stranger oa the
back.
"He's right!" said one cf tho by-standers. a
man cLout forty, stepping forward- "The
young maa is right, and I'm his friend in this
matter. It Li as clear as day and the affair can
very soon be settled.
The speaker had been a major ia the Texas
Revolution, and he led the stranger down the
cabin towards bis state room, telling the garab-
; ler to hare matters arranged within tea minutes.
When they reached the state room the major said
j to him
How is it that a person of your ae under -
I stands so much about cards as to beat these old
gamblers 1 :
" Curiosity led mo to study them, bvtl never
play except for amusement. Most, f not ail
of tho tricks I learned cf a fellow Voaidor, who
had formerly spent a great part of life time at
the gaming table. I noticed these horest coun
trymen had been swindled and thougH that it
would be but an act of charity to boat lie gamb
lers with their cwu weapons, and recover the
money for my partner and his friend. J Every
time I noticed the gambler secrete cards t culled
for another pack of a different color ; and I-.vo'j-h-cd
them too closely to give them a chaticc to
cheat in the eleal. They did not suspect mc un
til near Lhe finish of playing. Yoi: know tht
rest.
" Pretty good but do you think that you could;
fior. n.nt frllMi-V firr Tin fin oM l.mi.l ! f flmt
sir.css.
"But he's a coward or lie would not h;ive -
drawn a knife upon me. Vet, if it can be avoid-
cd, 1 would rather not meet him. I would not
like to have him meet his death at my hands,
nor would I like to sacrifice my own life for so
unworthy a purpose."
" It is too late to back out now."
" Can it not be settled V
" No ! If you refuse to meet him most every
one will renounce you a coward."
" Wei!, if it must be, I suppose it must but
I have no weapons."
" Never mind that, I have a prime pair cf
duelling pistols, and so if you Lave any arrange
ments to make, be about it, for the time is thort,
and the affair should be settled before it geL.
noised about the boat. I'll sec to the other mat
ters." " Stay ! Make the distance short."
" Only the breadth of the boat."
"That will d I will be prepared in time.!
So saying the young man went to his own
state-room, but soon returned and se ated him
self by a tabic in the cabin and comintncew
writing. His face was pale, deadly pale, bui
there was a fixedness of features, which at ones
told that las mind was made up. A tear cours
ed down his cheek as he wrote but probably
that tear was for those who were far away, yet
still to memory dear. Strange thoughts flitted
through his mind so young, and yet to stand
on the brink of death to make one f.aiful
plunge into that dark, unknown river, and be
carried by its current out into tLe Ocean ef Eter
nity, to return Lr.me no more". A lifetime passed
in review ia a moment. Yet tLe evil genii said,
" Go oa too late!" To die cr kill either was
a dreadful reflection. Yet the proud passioned
youth would not submit to reflection. It must
be done, and the sooner it is over the belter so
reasoned pasion,nnd passion triumphed. When
lie had finished hi: writing he gave it to the ma
jor, requesting him to follow the directions
which he would fiml written ia a note addressed
to himself, in case he should fail. Also to give
his winnings to George to make up cr the loss
he had sustained.
They then went upon the upper deck cf the
boat. It was a calm, still night, and ihc moon
shone forth in all its pale splendor. As far as
the eye could reach, nothing but forests end
w ater met the gaze. The pulling cf the high-
pressure engines, alone disturbed the stillness of j
the scene. The boat had just rounded to for the
purpose of wooding ; and w hen she was again
under way, the young stranger, his second, and
three other persons, anxiously awaited the ap
proach of the gamblers. Scarcely, a word was
spoken noue felt disposed to dhttub ;ho silence
that reigned half an hour passed, and the
gambler came not. It was now suggested that
some one should go in search of him. The mes
senger soon returned and reported that both the
gamblers had left the beat at the weodyard.
When the young man heard this, a fervent
"Thank God!" escaped his lips, and the party
retired to seek repose in sleep.
A Wise Landlord. One night, a judge, mil
itary ci'dctr, and a priest, all applied for lodging
at an inn where there w as but cne spare bed, and ,
the landlord was called on to decide which Lad
the better claim of the three.
" I have lain fifteen years iu the garrison at
B." said tho oP.icer.
" I have sat as Judge tw enty years at R."
said tlie Judge.
" With your leave, gentlemen I have stood in
the Ministry twenty-five years at N." said the
priest.
" That settles the disputesaid the landlord.

The great sul jects of discussion here arc the

by hard fighting. South of that phice, along the
coast and in the interior, the people and the Man

T!is Qicnc-l cf the French ZSinicicr
with tho Turkish Governni&itt,
CoxsTAN'i ixcri.i:, April 27, lt51.
The great event of the hiat twenty-four hours
is a serious difference between the French Am
bassador and the Porte w ith respect to the right
of Fiance to protect the Catholic ILlenncs.
When the expulsion of the subjects of KingOiha
was resolved on, it was expected by these who
knew the country that the question ( f religion
would 1-e brought in'o the dispute. It was as
serttd that the Catholics would be permitted to
remain, and the Archbishop proceeded to give
certificates of orthodoxy to all w ho applied, Gen.
Baraguay il'llilliers is then stated to have made
a f.,r,.:-d d, ,,ui,id:h.:f cUCaHiolhs should he excrt.
eJ J'rwrt the l-:cne, as being under F.ur.eh protec
tion, and that his guarantee fr the .;-ot beha
viour (f the members cf his own Church should
h-e considered sufficient. It was represented in
return, that such a distinction would p'ace the
act of the Porte on a wrrvg basis, give an fir of
relijious perstcu'.i
what wr.s a p li'ierd pre
caution, increase the t-ail leeimg w men airtaesy
prtvai's among the Rayahs, and lend some thow
of justice to the demands of the Czar.
The Ambassador then withdrew his more gen
eral demand, ur.d merely reques'c-d that certain
persons to the iiuuibt r e f fifteen , should be e xcep
ted from the r.ec.-.-aty of having. This was al
lowed, and a form of permission prej ared by the
Turkish Government, to be f.iied up with the
names of the individuals. This form was appro
ved by Gen. Baraguty d U.'.'.iers, w ho w as to send
in a few days for the required number ef such
documents. In the mean ime, aecui'ding t ) the j

" And erne o'er Ler the myrtle bhowers,
Its leaves by soft winds fanned :
She faded midst Italian liowers
Tl'.e last of that fair band."
'Twas in the land of Italy what a rr.ngnia
eer.t scene! A .a!e ema 'iited girl lay upon her
bed of death. Oh! it was hard for her to die,
far from her !: iGio, ia this beautiful land, where
liowcrs bloom perennial, and the balmy air
comes freshly to the pining soul. Oh ! no her
star had set ihc brightness ef her dream had
faded, and her heart"was broken. When ties
have been formed on earth, close, burning ties,
what is more heart-rending and agonizing to tho
spirit, than to find at last tha beloved one snatch
ed away, and all our love is given to " a jiass
injr llower." Enough; she died, the betrothed of
Robert Kir.met.the love!y Sarah C'urran. Italy
contains her la t remains ; its Cowers breathe
their frurrrauee over her grave and the lulling
tones of the shepherd's Cute sound a requiem te
her memory.
Aa Zspcso cf the "IZnorr Nothings."
Ye.-terday morning, a pamphlet cf thirty-two
rr.ces was i -sued from the- press of one ef the
ehe n;i pu
and s-M at a shilling. It is
entitled " The Knew Nothings: an Eipofe cf
tlie See-ret Order ofNaow Moihmcrs: tne most
h: .licroii.3 and f.tartling Yankee Notion ever con
ce i ed. By a ' Know Nothing, ' late of the Grand
Cour."ih"" The author states in the introduction,
that the objects of the association have never
L; en made known, as many of the " Nnow Noth
ings" theinse-lves are unaware of tho. ultimata
ob:ect of the cr'. r. The writer does not give
.i'i"v account ef the nbjects f ir w hich the order
v. as established. He" ttutes that it now num
bers five m hiiins ofmembcri:, and that it is in
creasing at the rate of five thousand per week.

A c.' .rdir.tr to this pamphlet, the real name
adopted by the er l. r ia general is BaUdorium,

into three det rees, tneh separate from the other.
The first is called the Mamsome degree: the
