THE GIPSY'S WARNING.
Do not trust his, gentlo lady,
Though his voice be low and sweet;
Heed not that he kneels unto the
Softly pleading at thy feet.
While thy life is in its morning,
Cloud not thus thy sunny lot,
List unto the gipsy's warning.
Gentle lady, trust him not.
Do not turn so coldly from me
I would only guard thy youth.
From a stern and withering sorrow—"
I would only tell thee truth.
I would shield theo from all danger, —
Woo the from the tempter's snare ;
Lady, shun the dark-eyed stranger.
I have warned thee ; oh, beware !
Lady, once there lived a maiden
Young and pure, and like thee, fair;
Yet, oh yet, he woo'd and won her,
Filled her gentle heart with care. c
Then he heeded not her weeping,
He cared not her life to save ; ~
Soon she perished—now she's sleeping
In tho cold and silent grave !
Keep thy gold ! I do not need it!
Lady," I have prayed for this—
For the hour when I might find him,
Kob hipi of expected bliss !
Ay! I see thou'rt filled with wonder
At my words so fierce and wild ;
Lady, in that green gra\e yonder,
Sleeps the gipsy's only child !
A Ship of Death Floats Into a Port of the
Shetland Islands.
Since the time when the Ancient Mari
ner told the terrible tale of the cruise-laden
ship, with het crew of ghastly corpses, no
more thrilling story oi tbe sea has been re
lated than that of the whale ship Diar.a,
that recently drifted into one of the Shet
land Islands.
A year ago she left the Sbet'iands ou'a wha
ling voyage to the Arctic regions, having
on board fifty men- From that time noth
ing more was heard of her. The friends of
those on board became alarmed. Money
was raised and premiums offered to the
first vessel that would bring tidings of the
missing ship, but alt to no avail. Hope
was almost abandoned.
On the 2d of April the people nearßona's
Voe, in one of the Shetland Isles, were
startled at seeing a ghastly wreck ot a ship
sailing into the harbor. Battered and ice
crushed, sails and cordage cut away, boats
and spate cut up for fuefin the terrible Ar
tie winter, her decks covered with dead and
dying, the long lost Diana sailed in liks a
ship from Deadman's Land. Fifty* men
sailed out of Lcrick in her on a bright May
morning last year. All of the fifty came
back on her an the 2d of April, this year;
the same, but bow different.
' Ten men, ot whom tbe captain was one,
lav stiffened corpses on the deck : thirty
five lay helplessly sick, and some <3ying, two
retained sufficient strength to creep aloft,
and the other three crawled feebly abont
the deck.
The ship was boarded by the islanders,
and, as they climbed over the bulwarks,
the man at the wheel fainting from excite
ment, one of the sick died ixi he lay, his
death being announced by the fellow occu
pant of his berth feebly moaifing, "Take
away this dead man." On the bridge of
the vessel "lay the body of the captain, aS it
had lain for four months, with nine of his
dead shipmates by his side, all decently laid
out by those who soon expected to share
their fate 4
The survivors could not bear to sink the
bodies of their comrades into the sea. but
kept them so that when the last man died
the fated ship that had heeh their common
home should be tbAr common tomb. The
surgeon of .the ship worked faithfully to the
last, but cold, hunger,-scurvy and dyscnter
j were too much for him. The brave old
Captain was the first victim, and died bless
ing his men. Then "the others fell, one by
one, until the ship was tenanted only by
the dead and djiug. One night more at
sea would have left the Diana a cof
fin. Not one of the fifty would have lived
to tell the ghastly tale.
A WORD TO YOUNG MEN. —One of the
meanest things a man can do, and it is
now no uucommon occurrence, is to mo
nopolize the time and attention of a young
girl for a year or more without a definite
objectjand to the' t exclasion qf any pUaer gen
tlemen who supposing him to have matrimo
nial intentions, absent themselves from her
society. It prevents the reception of eligi
ble offers of marriage, and fastens upon
the young lady, when the acquaintance is
finally dissolved, the unenviable appella
tion of "flirt." Let all your dealings with
woman, young men, be frank, honest, and
potle. That many whose education and
position in like manner would warrant our
looking for better things are culpably
criminal on those points, is no pxcuse for
short comings. That woman is often in
jured or wronged; through ber holiest feel
ings, adds but a blacker dye to your mean
ness. One rule ie always safe. Treat ev
ery woman you meet as you would
an other man to troat your innocent, con
fiding sister.
POPULAR ERRORS.— That editors keep
public reading rooms. Tbat they have
plenty of time to talk, to everybody. That
they are delighted to get anything to fill
up the paper with.,. That they like to be
asked " what's ihe news." , That every
man's own special axe is a matter of "pubr
lip interest" jThat it dees'nt make much
difference whether copy be writen on one
or both sides. That they return rejected
manuscripts. Tbat they can afford to-print
and 6end a man a newspaper for five or six
years without being paid for iU :•
THE BUSQ.UEHANNA RIVER,
If there be a more beautiful spot on
earth than that which tha men of Faxon
settled, we have not seen i{. From its
source in Ostego Lake, where the great
American novelist has described it in lan
guage which will never cease to bfe read ;
along by its lovely winding, where the
Chemung intersects the North Branch,
whose beauties have been embalmed by
one of our most graceful poets ; by the
Valley of Wyoming, which lives forever in
the imagination ot Campbell, but which is
fairer even than the eemi-tropical fancy of
which he was enamored ; on by tbe bold
scenery of the meetings of the waters at
Northumberland, to its broad glory, cele
brated in the New Pastoral, and its mag
nificent union with the Chesapeake, every
mile of the Susquehanna is beautiful.—
Other rivers have their points oflovliness
or of grandeur; the Susquehanna has every
form of beauty or sublimity that belongs to
rivers. We have seen them all ; Con
necticut, Hudson, Delaware, Ohio, Missis
sippi, Missouri . There is nothing like the
Susquehanna on this continent. Its pe
culiar character depends upon its origin
in the New York meadows, "its passage
through the magnificent Pennsylvania
highlands and the mountains. Every
where its course is defected ; begins a
wooded lake ; it winds a limped brook by
meadows and over silver pebbles; makes
its way through mountains; it loiters,
restingly, by their bases; it sweeps in
broad courses by the valleys. Its vast
width, iu its mid spring freshets, when
swollen by the melted snows, rushes from
tbe hills with irresistible force, sometimes
causing frightful inundation, leaves, with
its falls, islands in its channel, of the rich
est green, and most surpassing beauty;
while passes through the mountains af
ford points of scenery far finer than any
one would believe them to bo from any
description, if he had Hot seen them.
The Susquehanna makes the grandest
of these passages, just below the mouth of
theJuniata. Its course there is several
miles long, before it entirely disengages
itself from the rapids, called Hunter's falls,
which are the rcmaius of the rocky barrier
which once resisted its way. Entirely
at liberty, it pours its stream, a mile wide,
along a channel some fifty or sixty feet
beneath its bank.. About seven miles be
low the mountains, at a point where they
look blue in the distance, a sheltering well
from the northern blasts, flows in a little
strearfi which the Indians called I'axetang,"
Paixtand, or Paxton. This mountain is
the northern boundary of the Blue Ridge
which, underlaid with blue limestone, cov
ered originally with the richest and noblest
forest growth, and including within it the
gardeo of all tbe Atlantic ilopc, extends
from Easton, on the Delaware, by Read
ing, Lebanon and Lancaster, by Cham
bersburg, Ilagerstown and Winchester, un
til it loses in the North Cirolina hill*. —
The point of greatest beauty in all that
valley) is the spot where it is cloven by
the Susquehanna.
A hundred and forty years ago, an en
terprising young man from Yorkshire, in
England, bv. descent, probably one of
those Scandinavians, who, under the great
Camite, held possession of the North of
England, atfd gave its main character to
it, mnde his way to ! Philadelphia- He
married hero a lady who came over with *
welL-known Yorkshire family of this city.
Impelled by the same enterprising spirit
that brought him from the old world, and
naing the inevitable eye that was charac
teristic of him, he went to the banks of
the Susquehanna. He settled for a brief
period at a point above Columbia, where
the village of Bainbridge now stands, a
place mnch frequented by the Conoy or
Gawanoso Indians. But he was not satis
fied with the location. Exploring up
wards aloDg the eastern bank of the Sus
quehanna, he advanced until, instead of
the, Conowega hill at his back and on the
opposite side of the river, he found the en
trance opposite to him of that most beau
tiful valioy, already described, with two
fine streams flowing into the river about
five miles apart, and on the eastern 6ide
an elevated plateau unsurpassed in loveli
ness in the wide world, with the little
Paxton flowing at the base of an elevated
slope or ridge of land. Here he settled,
and the ferry across tho river to the en
trance of the Cumberland Valleys was
called after him.
His son, the first white child born West
of the Conewaga hills, subsequently laid
out a town on the spot, and with a singu
lar forethought set apart six acres on a no
ble hill whiclqrises on the northwest, whioh
be conveyed to the State for public pur
poses. The Capitol of Pennsylvania is
now built upon it and the city ot Harris
burg bears his name.
A.young lady went into a store a few
days since, selected her outfit, and gave or
ders for the articles to be sent to her* " Rec
ollect," "said she to the accommodating
clerk, u rats, mice, waterfall, net, crimpers,"
etc., etc. An unsophisticated elderly lady
who witnessed the transactions, lifted her
spectacles and gazed after the departing
piies ; then turning to the proprietor, in a
tone df sincereSt pity, " poor thing !" said
she,"she i 3 crazy, ain't she ?" the smile at
tins Was audible,— "Rural New Yorker.
Vile and debauched expressions are the

A THRILLING INCIDENT.
The tragedy of Nacogdoches, and its ro
mantic incidents which led to the Texas
War of Independence, find their parallel
only in the romantic history of Lucretia
aud the elder Brutus.
Juan Costa was a person of influence
and bravery in the wild forest, but he fell
undelr the displeasure of Santa Anna and
his minions, Pedras, the commandant of
Nacogdoches, was sent to arrest him. He
arrested the father at the sapper tabje, at
tended by his only daughter, a young girl
of surprising beauty and intelligence. He
loaded him with chains, and cast him into
prison, not withstanding her tears and en
treaties. Finally he prbposea to free the
father, if the daughter would consent to sac
rifice heb innocence and honor. She reject
ed the infamous proposal with a blow in the
face. The armed ruffian swore a horrible
oath to execute his will on them both.
With dark eyes, tearless and fixed as
those of a corpse,yet flashing a double por
tion of luminous fire, 9hc mounted a horse
and hurried away wildly around the coun
try. She halted at every house, no matter
whether Mexican or American, and rehears
ed in tones of thrilling horror her father's
wrongs and her own.
All timid modesty, all weakness had van
ished from her tongue,{utterly consumed by
the scorching thirst for revenge. She bar
ed her virgin bosom, and showed the livid
marks of the ravisheris anger among the
azure veins aloug the surface of snow, now
soiled, but before as ynre as a gleam of an
angel's wing.
And still, wherever the beautiful mail
wandered, a deafening yell of wrath and
veugance rose up against the tyrants.
The people of both races and all classes,
flew to arms, appointing a general rendez
vous for the 11th of June, at the residence
of the absent and now imprisoned, Juan Cos
ta,
It was here debated by tbe people who
should be their leader, but nothing being
done, the whole assemblage bade fair to
break up in confusion, wheo a tall, power
fully built strange, who had just entered'
Texas from the States, came forward and
addressed the multitude.
" I am a stranger, but I am also a man,
and I owe my life, soul, body, health, hap
piness, all—all to wOMkN—to my mother!
—aud if I turn a deaf ear to the prayer of
an inocent woman. askiDg my aid against a
villian, may my mother, and my God curse
me ! If you stay behind, I go for one, to
fight Pedras, and his armed ravishers of
your wifes and daughters !
The speech received with three tremend
ous cheers, and a shout that seemed to
shake the solid earth, uttered the first peal
of revolution.
We will go ! Death to the tyrants! —
Freedom for Texas, and the giant shall be
our leader 1
The next day he led his raw recruits to
the attack of Nacogdoches, ar.d stormed
every position against immence odds. Af
ter an assault of four hours, the carriage
being dreadful on both sides, fortunately
among the slain, was the dead body of the
atrocious Pedras,
And then, for the first time, was heard
in the land of tbe wild, the name destined
to become, and echo to the pulsation of all
hearts—the name of THOMAS J. RUSK.
Such was the debut of Rusk in Texas,
and from that day his popularity has gone
on steadily increasing, without even $
sitory eclipse, or even so much as a cloud
to dim its splendor. In vain for three years
General Cos demanded his arrest. Mex
ico had not soldiers enough Jo take him,
and in 1846 he assisted to chase the last
one of the country. Afterwards he amass
ed h fortune at the Texas bar, and was cho
sen one of the first Senators of the new
State annexed, a place which he ably
adorned.— Henderson Times.
POETRY IN UNDRESS.
An English paper which rejoices in the
name of the Ladies' Own, thus play 6 tricks
with rhynee and reason :" It is
many years since I fell in lave with Jane
Jerusha Skeggs, the handsomest country
girl by far, that ever went on two legs.
By meadow creek, and wood and dell, so
often did we walk, and the moonlight smil
ed on her melting lips, and the night winds
learned our talk. Jane Jerusha was all to
me, for my heart was young and true, and
loved with a doudle twisted love, and a
love that was honest too.. I roamed all over
the neighbor's farms, and I robbed the
wildwood bowers, and I tore trousers and
scrached my hands in search of choisest
flowers. In my joyous love I brought
these to my Jerusha Jane, but wouldn't be
so foolish now, if I were a boy again. A
city chap then came along, all dressed up
in fine clothes, with a shiny hat anda shi
ny vest, and a moustache under his nose.
He talked to her of singing schools (for
her father had a farm,) and she left me,
the country love, and took the pew chap's
arm. And all that night I ne ( yer,slppt, nor
could I eat Ue next day, fot; I Ipped that
girl with fervent love that BjfagW. y could
drive away. I strove to win her back to
me, but it was all in vaip; the city chap
with the hairy lip married Jerusha Jane.—
And mf poor heart was sick and 6ore until
the thought, struck me, that just as good
fish ptill remained as ever was caughtin the
sea. So I went to the Methodist church
one night and saw a dark brown eurl peep
ing from under a gipsy hat, and I married
that very girl. And many years have pass
ed and gone, and I think my loss their
gain ; and I often bless thst hairy chap that
stole my Jerusha Jane."

"A womau's, glory is io her hair," hat
often been quoted. If it be, she is deter
mined to dim it iii these days of artificiali
ty and fashionable folly. Now she twists
not only her own hair, but as much as
she can purchase, into the most unseemly
and grotesque shapes, marring, as if with
premeditated bau taste, every graceful
curve and every line of beauty. A fash
ionable woman's head at present, is a won*
der of uusightliness. One would not think
so many of the sex could, without positive
genius for the hideousness, so deform
themselves, as they do, in a single sitting.
They rise in the morning, go from the
bath comely and charming as nature crea*
ted them. They appear two hours later,
fresh from the hands of their maids, or their
own manipulations, elaborately wrought
out of all symmetry and attractiveness, es
pecially in regard to the hair.
Ingenuity appears to have been exhaust
ed of late years, to make woman's hair
look like anything else ; o give her head
a size and form and proportion little less
than repulsive. Curls, crimps, bands, wa
terfalls, aud we know not what, vie with
each other in destroying the fair semblance
of the human head. The more homely a
fashion, the more likely it is to be a favor
ite ; the more unbecoming, the more apt
it is to endure. One eannot go into com
pany that pretends to be elegant, without
having his eyes pained by the uncouthnes's
of the hair dressing, and distortion of all
that good taste would suggest. lie is re
tnindod of stage goblins, or of his childish
notions of the monsters of the Arabian
tales. 0, for a brave, sensible woman,
who would dare to be natural, dare to de
fy the dictate of fashion, when fashion ar
rays itself against simplicity, fitness and
grace. Those few could reform the fol
lies and insantities of dress. What othera
did, they would be bold to do, and beauty
begin again.
The present style of wearing the water
fall on the top of the head—it was bad
enough.behind it —is simply adefoiraity,—
It destroys the proportion of the head,"and
is an cxcresenee that no one can refrain
from desiring to see removed, even by vi
olence. A woman might as well hare a
hump on her back, or walk on stilts, as it
13 said she did in the early days of Venice,
or cover one of her soft cheeks with a
black plaster, or wear rings in her nose.
But she will not believe it; for no woman
would consciously mar her beauty, or di
minish the grace she had inherited. Who
does not long for the simple arrangement
of the hair, as we see it in Grecian statues,
plainly put back from the face or falling
over the ear and cheek, with a neat coil
behind, or a braid, if variety be needed?
No woman has a right to spoil her ap
pearance for fashion's sake. She owes
more beauty to nature, than to the mantu
maker or to caprice; and we must believe
the time will come when the really fine
woman will consider carefully the extent
and sacredness of her debt and discharge
it conscientiously and religiously.
BE HAPPY AS YOU ARE.
Wife and mother, are you tired and out
of patience husband's and chil
dren's demands upon your time and atten
tion ? Are you almost tempted to speak
out angry feelings to that faithfnl, bat,
perhaps, sometimes heedless or exacting
husband of yours ? Do you. -groan and
say : "\Y hat a fool I was to marry and
leave my fathers house, where I lived at
ease." Are you, by reason of the care and
weariness of the body, which wifehood
and motherhood bring, forgetful of, and
ungrateful for their comforts and joys?—
Oh ! wife and mother, what if a sudden
stroke should smite husband aad lay
him low? What if your children should
be snatched from your arms, and from
your bosom ? What if there were.no true
and strong hearts for you to lean upon 1
What if there were no soft little innocents
to nestle ia your arms, and to love and
receive your love ? How would it be with
you then ? Be patient, kind, dear wife—
be unwearying and long suffering, dear
mother—for you know not how long you
may be with your best and dearest treas
ures —you know not how long thev may
tarry with you. Let there be nothing for
you to remember which will wring your
heart with remorse, if they leave you
alone ; let there be nothing for them to re
member but love and sweetness unuttera
bio, if you are called to leave them by the
way. Be patient, be pitiful, be tender to
them all, for Death will sooner or later
step between them and you. And Oh 1
what would you do if you should be dopm
ed to sit, solitary and forsaken, through
years and years? Be happy as you are,
even with all your trials ; for we believe
it, thou wife of a true aud loving husband,
there is no lot ia life so blessed and hap
py as thine.
* fiT Of Mr, Greeley's visit to Rich
