SABBATH SONG
Sweet is the time of spring',
When nature's charms appear;
The birds with ceaseless pleasure sing,
And hail the opening year;
But sweeter far the spring,
Of wisdom and of grace, , [King,
When children bless and liraiso their
Who loves the youthful race.
Sweet is the dawn of day,
When light just streaks the sky ;
When shades and darkness pass away,
And morning's beams are nigh ;
But sweeter far the dawn
Of piety in youth ;
When doubt and darkness are withdrawn
Before the light of truth.
Come join our Sabbath song,
On this the holy day ;
We know that angel harps above
Unite to' swell the lay:
And in the house above,
Not made with human hand,
We'll sing at last the Sabbath song,
In one unbroken band !
Saviour, do thou appear,
Our sabbath school to bless;
Give to our youthful hearts thy fear,
And perfect righteousness.
Call us each one by name,
Receive each child as thine;
And 0, regard our youthful claim,
With benefits divine.
THE SABBATH BELL
The bells have rung, I cannot stay ; •
I'll haste to school without delay ;
I would be there to sing and pray,
And seek God's blessing through the day
These happy hours will soon be o'er,
When we shall meet in school no more;
But eon earth we do God's will,
In heaven above - we'll praise him still.
Oh that the Lord would gently move
Upon my heart, that I may love
His holy word and heavenly ways,
And learn to sing ou high his praise !
A incur Pu.oz.—ln Liverpool re
cently, while a lion-tamer named Mac
como was going through his performance
with Bengal tigers, at the Menagerie, a
tigress caught his hand in her mouth.—
Planting his knee in the small of the
tigress's back, and pressing her against
the bars of the cage, then siezing her
lower jaw with the right hand, he held
her powerless to do more than retain the
left band in her mouth. So cool was
Maccomo in this trying position that
lookers ou thought it part of the per
formance; but when he, called to one of
the keepers, "She has got my hand fast
in her mouth ; get a bar of hot iron, the
truth of his dangerous, position flashed
through the minds of those present, and
created the greatest excitement—one
lady fainted away, others running from
the, painful sight. Four or five minutes
elapsed before the iron was ready, dur
ing which time Maccomo stood as a piece
of statuary; not a quiver of lip to show
the pain he was enduring. When ready,
the hot iron was applied quickly and
surely by one of the keepers to one of the
large teeth in the tigress's upper jaw,
and, as though she had been electrified,
her mouth sprang open, Idaccomo, quick
as lightning, drew his hand away, caught
hold of a thick stick, Aruck the animal
a terrific blow on the skull, brought :her
down, and forced her to finish her per
formance before he left the cage. When
Maccomo came out of the cage, his bleed
ing hand testified to the frightful strug
gle which had been going on between
man and beast.
ta-Mr. Thaddeus Hyatt publishes a
card, defending himself from the charges
made against him by individuals in Law
rence, K. T., of having exaggerated the
amount of suffering in the Territory.—
He says that his assailants are moved to
their efforts because of jealousy of a rival
city, and of a Senatorial candidate, and
on account of a stupid idea that to tell
the whole truth about this if ansas fam
ine will destroy land values and trade,
and prevent immigration to the new
State.
IE3 - While the boys were out at "re

schools in South Adams, Itlass., a gen

of a bright looking lad, "What they did
in there ?" The urchin looked up, scan
ning his interrogator's face a moment,
and then with a wicked leer and knowing
wink replied, "They tan hides, sir l"
That boy had probably received his share
of smart in the aforesaid school house.
MARIETTA, PA., SATITRDAY, MARCH 16, 1861.
KENTUCKY LOOMING up : Kentucky
seems to be prominently on the carpet
just now,'as it has given birth to many
of the characters figuring in the drama
of the second American Revolution.—
President Davis was born in Todd coun
ty, Kentucky, in 1808. President. Lin
coln was born in Hardin county, in 1809.
Vice President Breckinridge was born
in Fayette county, in 1821. Senator
Crittenden, the great pacificator was
born in Woodford county, in 1786. Jas.
Guthrie, the Chairman on Compromise
Resolutions in the. Peace Conference,,
was born in Nelson county, in 1795.
Joseph 11olt,ithe warlike Secretary of
War, is a native of Breckinridge county.
Major Anderson was born in Kentucky,
in 1805. General Barney is also a Ken
tuckian, and Cassius M. Clay, both of
whom are somewhat connected with the
current crisis.
gir A lady writes from Washington
that Mrs. Lincoln is somewhat young
looking for the wife of a man of 52. She
is richly dressed, wearing a rose-colored
silk, and is otherwise handsomely deco
rated. She has a very fair complexion,
dark hair and a pleasant eye and voice.
Mrs. Hamlin is quite, young--far below
thirty—a lady of small figure, and like .
the President's wife, apparently highly
accomplished.
erHon. Horatio King, late Post
master General, entered the Department
over which

pine wood, are annually brought to the

sand cords are used by kindling-wood
companies. In the transportation of
this materiab. about a hundred schooners
are employed. The number has fallen
off somewhat lately through a contrac
tion of the business. Of this immense
supply of pine wood, New Jersey fur
nishes one-eighth, and Virginia the re
mainder.
110-A plain, hard-fisted old man called
upon Gov. Curtin, of Pennsylvania,,the
other day. The Governor, supposing, of
course, that the man wanted a place
somewhere, expressed his appreciation
of his past services, and said he was sorry
he could not reward him with an office.
"But I don't want an office," said • the
old man, "I merely called to see if ,you
didn't want, to buy a good dog I"
c...r"Electing" Postmasters is becom
ing quite common in the towns of Ohio
and Indiana. The Republicans vote for
the respective candidates, and the one
receiving the largest number Of votes

bad will at all events save the President
and Postmaster General a vast amount
of trouble and vexation.
The other evening a lady entered
a store in New York, for the purpose of
making some purchases, and while flier°
trod upon a match, which ignited, and
the flames communicatidg to her light
under-clothes, they were soon on fire.=
She thought she was over a furnace.—
Some one screamed and a dog ran V, her.
She was slightly burned and had a ner

trA_ woman named Margaret prett,
convicted of forgery and larceny, at Har
risburg, escaped from prison a day or
two since, by dressing herself in the

THAT LIBERAL JEW : It Will be rec
ollected by our readers that:Air. Morde
cai, orCharleston, South Carolina, pre
sented the empire with $lO,OOO, •to aid
in organizing and arming a new Govern
ment. The act was trumpeted aloud as
one of great liberality.and.patriotism.--
The Knoxville Whig, however, gives
some additional particulars, not much
to the credit of the "patriot."
Arordecai is a. Wholesale Druggist in
Charleston. He visited• New York,
Philadelphia, and Boston, just before he
did this act, and represented to his cred
itors that he *as insolvent, and settled
wrth:them by payibg 50 cents on a
dol
lar!`Such acts make Secession a glori
ous code of morals ! It is in • keeping
with the mo . rals of the Southern leaders,
with whom it is patriotic to rob the Gov
ernment, and religious to repudiate hon
est debts, we have the proof.
*FAlrs.'R,yves, the niece of George
has obtained a recognition of her
legitimacy from the - matrimonial causes
court in London, and thereby comes into
possession of the revenues of the Duchy
of Lancaster, amounting to £1,004,643
sterling, and also £105,520 as bequeSts
from the royal family, and is "Princess
of Cumberland and Duchess of Lancas
ter, as the- grand-daughter and lineal
representative, in -the female line, of his
late Royal Highness, Henry Frederick,
Duke of Cumberland, who died instate
in the year 1790." Like-the• Gaines and
Bonaparte cases, this hinged on a ques
tion.of legitimacy.
0 0-A grand tri-centennial anniversary
of the birthdaY of Shakspeare is proposed
to be held in England, in April, 1864.
An enthusiastic writer Proposes that a
temple be dedicated to him on that day,

A wild - cat,

CreJohn Quincy Adams asserted that
the '"abandonment of tobacco would add
five year t& the dierage 'of huinan life."

that a few days before the murder she
floured a man with a bottle, and she told
the officer whO arrested:her for the mur

MRS. DOUGLAS. A FIX.-A newspa
per contemporary says that the beautiful
and accomplished wife of Judge Douglas
made a wager of $lOO, prior to the late
election, that she would sleep With the
next President of the. United States.—
We think the Judge will prefer to ad
vance the money, and pay the wager.
Law.—The law is the standard and
guardian of our liberty ; it circumscribes
and defendk it; but to imagine liberty
without . law:kis to imagine every man
with his sword in his hand to destroy
him who "is weaker than himself : and
that would be no pleasant prospect to
those who cry out mast for liberty.

THE COOLEST TBING ON RECORD
As General Scott's army was march
ing triumphantly into the city of Mexico,
a procession of monks emerged from the
gate of a convent situated:on .the emi
nence at the right, and advanced, with
slow and measured tread until they met
the army at right angles. The guide or
leader of the processon was a venerable
priest whose hair was whitened with the
frost of many winters. He held in both
hands a contribution ,box, upon 'which
there was a lighted candle, and when
within a few feet of the army,the proces
sion halted. As: the army opropeeded,;
many a true believer in,SL Patrick.drop:t
ped some small coin or other, into the,
old priest's box.. And, when it was •ob
served that a soldier was searching in :
his pockets for something to bestow, the\
old priest would step ;ferward.and hold;
his box to receive the donation:. :Ulti
mately there came along a, tall, gaunt,,
limber-sided, grander-looking Irankaei-.
who, on seeing the poor: priest, thrust
his hands into the very depths of ;hie ;
breeches pockets, as if in search for a
dime, or something of the kind. The,
priest, observing this movement, advano4
ed, as usual, while Jonathan, holding
forth a greasy-looking roll of palm, coin,
menced unfolding-.:it. The old Airiest
anticipated a liberal donation,;and ;puts
on au air of the most exquisite satisfac4
tion. Jonathan continued to unroll
piece after piece of dirty paper, until•at
length he found a piece of tri-twisted
smoling tobacco. He next thrust.tos,
hands into another pocket, and ;drew
forth a clay pipe, which, with the utmost
deliberation, he proceeded ,to , 1111 .by•
pinching ell' small partiel4 of the tobac,
co. When this was done, having re
placed his tobaco in his breeches pock
et, he, stooped forward, and lighted his
pipe by the old prieet's_candle,amtmak
ing an awkward inclination of,.theliead-,
(intended, perhaps, for a bow 3 ) i he, said,
'Much obleeged to ye, 'Squire,!' and pro

cr"Antelope," the New York ..eort

while he was there, aid cencindee that
"while there is geniality it'd merited
worth speaking from that face, there is.
at the same time, an iron cast presented;
and an indomitable will. Indeed, at a
