THE PILGRIM A
BY   PETBR   FI
A braco of sinners for no good
Were ordered to tho Virgin Mary's shrine,
Who at Lon.tto dwelt in wax, stone, wood,
An J, in a cori'd white wig, looked wond'roas fine.
Fifty long miles had those sad rogae3 to travel,
With something in their shoes mack worse than ¡jrayel;
In short, iheir toes, so gentle to amase,
TIil* priest had ordered peas into their shoe0 !
The knaves set off on the same day,
Pcasiii their shoes, to go and pray ;
But very diff'rent was iheir speed, I wot ;
One of the sinners gallop'd on,
Light as a bnjlet from a gnn ; :
The other limped as if hehad beeo shot.
Osf. saw the Virgin soon.—'ípuceavi" cried—
Had his soul whitewash'd ali so clever :
When home nga¿n he nimbly hied ;
Made fit, with saints above, to live forever.
In coming back, however, let me say,
lie met his brother rogue about half way;
Hobbling with outstretched rear and trembling knees,
Unrsing tlie souls and bodies of the peas :
Ilis eyes in tears, h¡3 cheeks and brows in sweat,
¿Deep sympathising with his groaning fec-t.
li How now ! " the light toed, whitewashed pilgrim broke ;
" I'oalazy Inbber! "
"Plague take it I " cried th' other, ':'tis no joke—
My feet, once ¿hard as any rock,
Are now as soft as blabber.
Excusa me. Virgin .Mary, if I swear ;
as for Loretto, I shall not get there :
But brother tinner, do explain
How 'tis that yoa are not in pain?
What power hath woiked a wonder for yonr toes.
Whilst I; j ust like a saail, am crawling,
Nowsweuring, now on Saints devoutly bawling,
Whilst not a rascal comes to ease my wues 1
How is't that yoa can like a greyhound go,
Merry, as if tbat nought bad happened, barn ys? "
" Why, "cry'd the other, grinning,-1 you must know,
That jus* before i ventured on my journey,
To walk a little more üt ease,
I took the Liberty to son, my peas ! "
Affairsof France —"Spectator," the correspondent, of the New Vork Commercial, writes
as follows:—
London, Dec. 23, 1851. France is still the
topic of attention, and yet the indi£ei*eneo to
] what is taking place there is remarkable.
The extinction of a free press, and the control
over the post office, prevents the possibility of
ascertaining the real balance of parties, and
all the news which comes from the government is estimated as if from a great gambling
house. This morning we have partial intelligence ofthe progress of voting ■'•yes" or "no1!
for a ten years' Presidency, and thus far, although the majority for Louis Napoleon is relatively enormous, the aggregate number of
suffrages is not large. If the votes were ever
so numerous, they would prove nothing more
for the stability of Louis Napoleon than the
forced loans in Lombardy prove with respect
to the financial credit of Austria.
Tickets with the printed word "yes"' were
freely distributed through the government
officials, and on the other side not only were
persons arrested who ventured to recommend
their friends to vote in the negative, but the
printers were afraid to print tickets, with the
word "No;" and the peasantry, therefore, a
large majority of whom are unable to write,
were left with no choice but to vote liyes" or
to abstain. The possibility of one individual
getting another to writs for him was almost
out of the question, since the request might
be made as a ticket, and the party employing
might be sent to prison. Previously to the
election, a notice was issued by M. de Moray,
the Minister of the Interior, that no sheet,
pamphlet, or book, of less than 160 pages,
would thenceforth be allowed to he published,
unless first submitted for his approval.
The total number of electors on the registers
is about ten millions. The votes in favor of
Louis Napoleon under the constitution he
has violated were six millions. Up to. the
presen t hour thc total reported on this occasion
is 3, 108,637- The negative amount to: 514,-
962. I entertain little doubt, however;*/that
the result will come tip tc
figure which the 'Mi'nistoi- of th. _
deem expedient, The whole thing"
is an im^MS^f^^^ttí Yve^u^. '
genuineness ofthe vote could be relied upon,
and if all the population of the country bad
joined in it unanimously, it would have been
of no value as an indication for tbe future.
It would merly show that the people had
got some fresh delusion, which tbeir new deity
ia to work out for them, the more monstrous
their faith, the sooner will they be disenchanted, and the more severe will be the whipping
for'their idol. Three years ago the grand
vision was the freedom of -'oppressed nationalities." now it is "order and the Catholic religion." All predictions of what wili take place
must consequently be vain, except such as are
inspired by a sense of the principles upon
which God rules the world. Those who possess that sense can look on and wait, and they
would regard nothing more than that the ignorant revenge of man, either by assassination/
or any other means, should avert what will
otherwise cometo pass.

Medical Reform. — A new system of Medicine has been founded in Europe ¡which threatens to give the coup de grace to the regular
practice, and even to throw homoepathy
completely into the shade. It is called
"kinesipathy," a.id ¡ts professors treat diseases
to "movements." M. Rush, M. D., of London
has issued a book of three hundred pages, describing this system. His interpretation of the
term movements is as follows:
"By the world movement, in a medical and
hygienic sense, is tobe understood every change
of position and difference of form, determined by time and amount, in the body, or
in any part of it, and which may be produced
by the organism itself, or by any animate or
inanimate mechanical agent."
Here is a description of one of the movements and its effects:
Chopping Movement.—Chopping consists in
alternate short blows, produced by the external
sides of both the operator's hands. Choppings
principally used on the posterior surface of the
trunk, chest, and also on the limb4!. If it is
desirable that the succession produced by this
movement shall be less and softer, then the
chopping is done with the external edges of the
two little fingers, while the other fingers are
spread apart, but not kept spasmodically fast,
so that they act also by striking upon the little
finger.
Effect,- Choppings produce generally a venous absorption in the capillary texture, not
only ofthe external skin and the tendinous expansions, but also, if more strongly used, in the
muscles and bones ; in imperfectly paralysed
muscles they excite the innervation both ofthe
motory and sensitive fibres. If directed on the
lower extremities, on the soles, they act very
well in hiemorrhoidal comlanints, headache,
&c. On the chest or along the spine, they are
efficacious specific movements in certain complaints of the chest, partly by their direct influence on tbe muscles of the chest, partly by
the tremulous, passive vibration communicated
to the lungs.
Besides tbis movement there are the ,! shaking movement." the " rising-up movement"
the " letting-down movement,"' " transversal
chopping," " vibrations,' &c. If this system
is well founded, prize-fighting must be one of
the most potent remedies in the new " materia
medica," and should be recommended in thc
most desperate diseases! Fancy a grave medical professor taking a round of fisticuffs with
his patient, and pummeling him almost to a
jelly, in order to produce "a difference of form"
in the animal organism !—Boston Journal.
New Use for Ice,—The scientific men of
France are at present speooiating on a recent
instance ofa young man brought to life after
being frozen up eleven months on tbe Alps, it-
has given rise to a revived belief in the Mieory
that life can be suspended at pleasure, and
criminals are about to be demanded of the
Government, to be frozen on experiment.
The reader will already have inferred what a
relief this offers to such unhappy ladies as
find themselves ¿not cotemporary with the
hearts they sigh to win. They have only to
be iced until overtaken. We should add, however, chat the above is hy on means a joke.
Tbe blood of a living man was iufused into
the veins of the frozen youth, and he moved
and spoke.    The   experiment   was afterwavd*.

ent.   In a triai «.u Cork for murder, the pri
pal witness swore strongly against the prise
er.    He particularly swore that the hat fou
near the place of the murder belonged to th
prisoner, whoso name was James.
"By virtue of your oath are you sure that this
is the same hat V
"Yes."
"Did you examine it carefully before you
swore iu your information that it was the prisoner's V
" I did."
"Nowlet me see," saidO'Connell as he took
up the hat and began to examine it carefully
in the inside. He then spelled aloud the name
of James, slowly, thus : J-a-m-e-s. "Now. do
you mean that- those words were in it when vou
found it V'
"1 did." _
"And this ia the same hat V'
"It is."
"Now, my Lord," said O'Connell, holding up
the hat to the bench, "'there is an end to the
case, there is no name whatever inscribed iu
the hat."    The result was an instant acquital.
8g^ The French Minister at Washington
has announced officially the change in tha
Government of France. He stated at the Department of State, that the President of the
French Republic had adopted a great measure
for the public safety. That the Chief of the
State owed it to 6,000.000 Frencmen who had
elected him. and to tbo world which had received his nomination as a new era of tranquility for France, to preserve her from a revolution of which the world might feel the recoil,
The Approaching Downfall of Austp.ia,
—Every arrival from Europe brings new indications of the approaching downfall of the
Austrian Empire. The London correspondent
ofthe New York Commercial Advertiser, in
his letter of the 25th ult., says :
i;At Vienna, tho Bourse remains in a state of
seige. Six gendarmes fully equipped are posted every day at tbe entrancc,and spies in plain
clothes throng the interior, and report

military authorities to prove that he was merely executing an order, and had no intention of
speculating, and any remark that can be construed into rn expression of distrust is calculated to bring down at once tlie penalty of Ln-
prisonment or expulsion. According to the advices received to ¿lay. th- correspondent of tho
Daily News has had a ,-tice to q* * the eity

ofthe people assumes every day a more serious
