COME HOME !
BT A. SISTER TO HKB LONG ABSBST BROTnER.
Come home!
Would I could send my spirit o'er the deep,
Would I Could wing it like a bird to thee:
To commune with thy thoughts, to fill thy sleep
With these unwearying words of melody,
Brother, come home.
Come home!
Come to the hearts that love thee, to the eyes
That beam in brightness but to gladden thine;
Come where fond thoughts like holiest incense rise
Where eherish'd Memory rears her altar's shrine .
Brother, come bome.
Come home!
Come to tho hearthstone of thy e;irly days,
Come to tho ark like the o'erwearied dove ;
Come with the sunlight of thy heart's warm rays,
Come to the fireside circle of thy love:
Biother, come home.
Come borne!
It is not home without thec—the lone seat
Is still unclaimed where thou wert wont to be ;
In every echo of returning feet,
In vain we list fof what should herald thec;
Brother, come home.
Come home!
We've ntlfsed for thee the sunny buds of Spring,
Watched every germ a full blown flowret rear;
Saw o'er their bloom the chilly winter fling
Itt) icy garlands, and thou art not here ',
Brother, eome home.
Cotne home
Would I could send my spirit o'er the deep ;
Wotild I could wing it like a bird to thee ;
To commune with thy thoughts, to fill thy sleep
With these unwearying words of melody,
Brother, come home.
THE RESPONSE.
I come!
Swiftly onr good ship with the rising gale,
Rides the green billows ofthe swelling sea j
liy country and my home I soon shall hail,
And all my fears forget at meeting thee i
Sister, I come.
I come.
In every zephyr from our favored land,
I bear thy voice ; and the wild ocean's roar
Cannot diver! m n from the beckoning hand,
Of lost afftcti ui on the distant shore :
Sister, I come.
I come.
My spirit lingers round our childhood's home,
In the deep midnight, when the world 13 still;
And to thy plaintive call, "come, brother come,"
Answers its sister-spirit of the hill.
Sister. I come.
I come.
Blest will the exile be to meet his sire
And welcoming mother at the cottage door,
To stt with thee beside the evening tire,
And tell the tale of his adventures o'er:
Sister, I come.
I come*
When Spring awakens earth as with a charm.
And earth again her vernal pleasures yields,
How beautiful 'twill seem, as arm in arm,
We thread the walks of our Elysian fields;
Sister, I come.
I come.
Swiftly our good ship with the rising gale,
Rides the green billows of the swelling sea,
My country and my home I soon shall hail,
And all my fears dismiss at meeting thee :
Sister, I come.

WHERE I WOULD SLEEP,
BY BEATRICE.
■0 bury mc net where the willow bends,
Where the land-bird's song to heaven ascends,
Where the violet sends forth sweet perfume.
Aud the fair, pale lily in beauty blooms;    '
But when I enter the infinite rest
Let me calmly sleep ou old ocean's breast.
There the sea-Sowers around me shall bloom,
And forests of coral shall be my tomb;
The murmuring tones of the sparkling surge,
Shall chant for me a funeral dirge;
And the stormy ps-trel his wmgs°will lave
In the bounding sea which shall be my grave.
In the hereafter my soul will arise
On the pinions of faith to its native skies-—
'Twill arise in joy from the briny flood,
Purified, cleansed in Christ's own blood ;
But until that glorious day shall be
O let me repose in the deep blue sea.

Another Lynching niiV.tr at San Antonio.
MORE Of THE P.ep-WOOP RANGERS.
We are indebted to Mr.   Fried!a-dor,   proprietor
ofthe Mansion House at San Antonio, forthc follow
ing account of a murder perpetrated near that place
on the night ofthe first instant, py a party rt{ men
supposed to be a company of Red Wood Rangers-—
About ten o'clock on Sunday  night a man applied
for lodgings at the San Antonio hotel,   kept by a
female.    He was invited to enter and was ushered
into a back apparlmcnt, where a youug man by *h
name of John Fanning was sitting.    After having
closely inspected   the  apartment, the stranger remarked that he had seven companions outside who
also desired lodgings.    The landlady replied thai
she would endeavor to accommodate them, and tin
stranger went out saying that he would inform his
comrades. Presently a party of twelve men entered
the house, and one ol them, a very tall man, beckoned to Fanning, who got up and accompanied him
outside the house, whither the otherssoon followed.
The tall man was   then  heard to  exclaim,  'all a
broad,'and immed ately the whole party  was in
motion, and from the sound of their footsteps they
were evidently retreating hastily from the house.—
Although the proceedings were deemed somewhat
singular the circumstance created no particular interest until the afternoon of the day following, when
tbe continued absence of Fanning'induced some in-i
qniry, and towards evening his body was discovered ,r0TTrP „ *,",'
hanging by the neck from a beam fixed between two' J\ the foiiowi'- <k*s
trees, about half a mile distant from Sau Antonio.' nfn»r««»"="™= *«*„ «•■
The only reason assigned for this outrage is. that
Fanning was suspected of having set lire to tho house
occupied by Judge Walker, of San Antonio. The
house was the property of a man named Bingham,
between whom and Fanning there had existed foi
some time a strong feeling of enmity:—previous to
the destruction of Bingham's house, (which occurred about two weeks since,) some one remarked iti
the presence of Fanning that it was the lines', house
in town—Fanning replied 'yes, but he, (meaning
Banning,) will not own it long.' There was nothing
of evidence sufficient to warrant the arrest of Fanning, although his remark was generally canvassed,
and had created a strong impression against him —
Fanning was formerly employed on the farm of
Messrs. -Matt! ews and Sanford, and has latterly beeu
engaged in breaking wild horses. The facts narrated above wereelic ted before the Coroner during
the inquest yesterd y morning. The case will be
submitted for further investigation to the Grand
Jury of Alameda County.

Shooting Big Game.—A female natned Mrs. Cat-
roll was accused of threatening the life of Mrs
Margaret McKenzie. The latter exhibited to tli-
Court a very pretty countenance, and her case immediately drew the sympathy of the audience. In
the evidence it came out that complainant's pig
had devoured certain young ducks and chickens,
the property of dclendant; whereupon the latter
watched an opportunity and shot the porker as it
•was sleeping, under her neighbor's house. Mrs.
McKenzie understood that Mrs. Carroll had intimated that she would think as little of shooting
her as the pig. His Honor advised Mrs. Carroll to
discard the use of her shooting irons. The amiable
Mrs. McKenzie was not disposed to urge the prosecution, but only desired to state that Mrs. Carroll
was the owner of a goat that gave a great deal of
annoyance—[S. F. Herald.
Takinq Aran ins F*thbr.—Tfo once heard of
ran eccentric old man in the " Nutmeg State," in its
northern part, who went by the familiar title ot
" Uncle Aaron " The old man had raised a large
•family of boy?, the youngest of whom— a wild
roystering blade-was named after himself. In
speaking ofhis family, the old man said, with a
very long face : "Among all my boys, I n--ver bad
but one who took after his lather, and that was my
Aaron ; he took after me—with a club .'"
Libelous—The following paragraph, saysan exchange, is from the regular report of the proceedings ofthe Legislature of Connecticut:
i;Bill to tax geese.cats,and bachelors. Mr4 Morrison was opposed to the bill taxing bachelor,.
There was a lax already laid upon i goose, iiiidauy
man who had lived twenty-five years without get
tiug married, could be taxed under that section !'■

RoBREitY by a Babbie r—Chlohqpobm Used.—On
Thursday evening, tho 15th inst., a gentleman
named Pleasant Field, who was returning westward
trom Elmira. New York, where he had just befort
Ifected the sale of a farm in Wisconsin, with the
money, over $1490, chiefly iu bank bills, in a package in his pocket, being detained in Dunkirk a few
hours, put up at the Loder House. During the
fvening, about 10 o'clock, b.3 went into a barber's
hop under tbe hotel to be shampooed and shaved.
He sat down in the chair, and having previously
taken off his coat for the purpose of having the
sleeve cleaned by the barber, be removed the package from the side pocket of hia coat to his pacta
loons pocket. Soon after the negro had commened
tbe shampooing Mr. Field co upluined of feeling
suddenly sick, and on the barber assuring him thai
',f he would lay down on the lounge he would put
something on his bead that would cure him in a
minute, he got out of the chair and laid down, as
directed. Ho woke up at three o'clock the next
morning perfectly unconscious of anything thai
had occurred in the meantime, and miuus his money
and every thing else he bad in his pocket the evening before. The fluid used by the barber in rubbing
Mr. Field's head was undoubtedly chloroform, as
some was found in the shop the next day.—Cleveland (Ohio) Herald.
Or.D rnoxsiuKa off Cuba.—The N. O. Delta publishes a lette**- written on board the U. S. ship Con
stitutiou, and dated South side of Cuba. May 8th.
the material portion of which is as follows:
"On the 22d ultimo, we were within 10 days'
sail of our port of destination, Portsmouth, N. H..
(after serving more than a two years' cruise on the
coast of Africa.) when we boarded an American
four days from the Deleware. She informed us that
tlie Uuited Stsiti-s Government were sending as tnanv
of ourships-or-war to Cuba as could be uunned. and
the papers received from our countrymen induced
the Commodore, [Mayo,] togive the 'oider to put
the helm up. and make all sail for Cuba; that our
presence was required there, fern rking at the same
time that he called no council of war: he asked n<>
opinion or advise ofany officer; that he alone wa?
responsible for his movements. And here we are
within four days' sail of Havana, where Com. Mayo
will offer the secvices of 'Old Ironside?,' to Coin.
McCauley.
We know it was trying to Com. Mavo io disap
point the officers and men of the Constitution from
meeting their wives and families, but he said onr
duty to our country is our first consideration. Our
Commodore is a prudent officer, but woe to the Spanish cruiser wbo offers any indignities to our fla- "
his presence.
If our presence is not required at Havana,
may speedily be expected home."

Terrible Hail Storm.—The severest hail storm
that ever visited this section of country passed
down the East side of Keot-vea river, in the afternoon of Friday, the 18tli inst. It extended shout
two miles in width, aid mged with great (liry,kiil
ing hogs, fish, birds, fowls, and insects; maiming
and braining the eattte, and stripping vegetation
of_ every vestage above ground. The growing crops,
with the exception of corn, is completely ruined.
R. Steward. Esq.. informs us that on the third day
after its fail, the hail was from one to two feet deep
and. in many places, six feet. The average depth
on a level, after the storm, was lo'ir inches. We
are informed by several persons that the largest
hail-stones measured ten inches in circumference,
and others four incheb in length. Tt fell with such
force that the boards on several houses were split
to pieces, and that now the stench arising from the
decaying vegetable matter is very offensive.
We are indebted to the kindness of W.J. Parsons.
Esq., for a small carpot-bag full of the hail, gathered upou yesterday (the eighth day after its fall.)
Some of the stones were as ljirge as 'guinea eggs
and had been taken from an open field, the thermometer standing at 90 during the two days past.
The storm extended from the mountains in North
Carolina East—[Pickens, (S. C.) Courier.
The Neiv Governor ok Jerusalem.—Letter*
from Jerusalem, says the Pai'is Unioers. announce
that Kiamii Pasha, the new Governor, had arrived
in that city three days before, and that his first acts
had produced a most favorable impression on the
Christians. Before entering the town an unfortunate Greek Christian, with ""his face covered with
blood, presented himself before him, complained
that he had been ill-treated by a Mussulman. JOa
mil immndijiteljr had the Mussulman brought bo-
fore bun. and finding the complaint well founded
he caused a bastinado of 250 to be at onceadminis-
terad to the man. who was besides sentenced to
three months imprisonment. In addition to this
it was known that, though Kiamii, on passing
through Jaffa aod Ramie, had allowed presents ol
mules, horses, ic, to be made to htm, in accordance
with the usual custom, he had. an hour atter, returned them, to the great astonishment of the do-
uors.

In the spring of 1840. Tutle, of Acton , sold a cow-
to Brown. ofCotieord, for (if'tv dollars. Soon after
the purchase, Brown diisovered that the cow had
one dry teat. He then raqaested Tuttle to allow him
a discount of twelve dollars and fifty cents on the
bill and stated that he was ready to pay ihe balance.
Tuttle refused to make any allowance for the dry
teat, and sued Brown for the whole bill, The case
was decided in his favor, but was carried up on appeal, aud again returned to the Common Pleas where
it has remained on the docket until last Thursday
whxjn it was decided in favor of Brown. 'Die cos't*

Whent and  Stock.
The following article from tho Alta California,
will give oar wheat und stock grovrers som*"* reliable information:
" The now crop of Whent ia coming to but slowly so far, but the probabilities are that in a week
or two, we will have a pretty full supply. At present, singular as it ma^ appear, we an! Shipping to
tho interior, and engagements to a con.-iiderable extent, we being made thera for milling put-poses.
Wehave all along been of the opinion, asd-have 30
expressed it, that the yield Ehrtftighottt the State
would be extremely large; but i: believes tb^ae
interested to look at the matter very particularly
and carefully. At this time last year, when we entered upon tlio harvest, wc had in store from 250,-
001) to 300,000 bbls. of imported Flour, or equal to
l,2o0,000 to 1^00,000' bushels of Wheat. This we
have-not on hand now, and in our calculations re-
gMdiog the crop this deficiency must be taken into
account. Within the past year, from Juiy 1.1854.
to July 1st, lSy'i, we have exported 90,000 bbls. of
Flour, or its equivalent in Wheat. We must make
an allowance of all of this before we commence our
calculations for exports during the coming season.
and it is on this account that we call attention to
it at the present tims.
The following article from the United States
Economist, will be read with interest. The writer
is necessarily not sufficiently acquainted with our
businees here to understand the difference between
Spanish and American cattle. Within the pact
month, at Los Angeles, the first named description
has been sold !br $5.50 per head, and the quality
of the beef is better, or at least equal to, than the
ordinary ran of tlie article in the west and south.
The cost of driving cattle from the extreme south,
to San Francisco, or the Minos, is, however, great,
and consequently they command here much higher
prices. The increase of stock iu California, is also
exceedingly great, the yearling heifer here reproducing, while the sheep prodnees twice a year.
However, we pass to the article :
'•'Beef cattle have now become so numerous in
California, by the numbers taken out by emigrant.-,
the herds driven from Texas, and the natural increase of lhe stock there, thtrt ihey are worth but
•SIC a head, while in New York they command from
$70 to $88."
We find theabove item in an exchange paper, and
have vainly searched onr California papers for a
Cattle Sale, to enable us to ascertain its correctness.
Still we do not doubt that it is true, for the numbers of cattle taken overland to California have
been.very great. In it is this which hascut olfour
natural supply from the west, and sent up the price
of beef in all our markets to fabulous rates.
_ The fact that Flour has been selling for five and
six dollars a barrel in California, when it haa been
thirteen dollars here, shows the absurd manner in
which the business of furnishing the supplies for
California has been going on. Before the gold discoveries, California had vast herds of cattle, valued
chiefly for their hides, which ware exported hither
in large quanti ties. What became of them all when
the gold fever broke out, we coald never ascertain,
hut irom the way in which hundreds of acl venturers engaged in the business of driving cattle over
the plains to California, to furnish supplies, everybody has supposed there were noue in the country.
in that region everything increases very ;-ap;dly.
and now wehave once more the announcemeui that
California has abundance of beef cattle. And yet
it 13 only the Indiau hostilities on the plains that
has uow put a stop to the driving of live stock in
herds to California. Under such circumstances it
is no wonder that the price of previsions range so
high here,
While engaged in tbe business of supplying everybody else, we have forgotten to supply ourselves,
and hence the famine rates to which flour aud meat
have run up. Unfortunately this short supply of
beeves is a thing which cannot be remedied &f a
favorable season like the supply of bread-sin if-, and
our only hope seems to be that some enterprising
merchant will engage tn the business of importing
beeves from South America.

iiniis l>cforc Sebastopol,
Our readers could not fail to have remarked iu
the telegraphic summary of the foreign news the
remark of Gen. Canrobert, that he had hurled
atmk-pots" with great success against the Russians. The Philadelphia North American, in commenting on this last resort of the allies, rcmarl;-*:
But we come now to a feature in the late advices from the seat of war, which, we confess, haa
staggered our credulity more than anything that
has ever reached us from that quarter. It is announced iu a dispatch from Gen. Canrobert. that
the allies have been throwing camouflets, or stinkpots, iuto the enemy's fortifications, and that the
measure has been eminently successful. If this be
true, it merits the contempt ofthe civilized world.
It is a mode of warfare to which a brave antl honorable adversary would not descend, and which,
even a savage might be ashamed to employ. The
fortunes of the besiegers nni.'t, indeed, be desperate, when they arc driven to expedients so unworthy this age. Defeat, the most absolute and mortifying, would be preferable, one should think, to a
generous enemy, to a triumph achieved by such
cowardly and infamous means. To conquer a gallant foe, whom the usual irts and implements of
military science cannot vanquish, by smoking liim
to death with poisonous gases, 13 an act at which
the moral sense of this century must revolt. I* the
balls from the allied lines cannot batter down the
walls of Sebastopol; if the shells thrown iuto them
cannot induce the Russians to capitulate or Sttntm-
der ; if they cannot be invested and subdued by
famine ; or, it they cannot be bravely assailed and
cariicd by storm, then, wc submit, it were be tier
to abandon the siege altogether, than to attempt
its conquest by raining into the fortress a show-.T
of stench-balU, nud destroying the garrison by
asphyxia. We have turned with disgust from seeing the hunter, who had chased his prey to its den,
pile a burning brush-heap at the entrance of tho
refuse, either to lorce the poor brute forth again,
or to kill it by suffocation ; but that proceeding is
tolerable in comparison with the base inhumanity
of attempting the capture of a citadel in war by
strangling its forces with deadly fumes emitted
from smoking missiles.'"'
Culture ofthe Tomato
ai mt-UAii cAor.[.ro.v, tfirtr uniGimw, hrstrastaam.
Itis very likely that many ofyourniimerouH readers will consider it very snperfluous to be writing
about so common a Buttject as the Tomato, — the
more common and often more needed,—so at th«
risk of being thought out of matter, I will venture
to ofi'er a few remarks on tbi*** generally acocptttd
edible.
The Tomato was originally a-native of South
America, but it may now be considered as indegent
ous to nil wartnor temperate regions; for, like tb*
Grape,.it has been introduced to all countHeswliere
there has been any prospects of Its flourishing.—
Wherever the climate is sufficiently suitable lo perfect the truit, it seems to be universally a favorite;
and yet there is perhaps no other vegetable which
is dressed in the kitchen, that represents so-nrarly
the normal condition, from a small, bitter tatie, an
the Potatoe is in its aboriginal state, there bfwbeeu
obtained the good-flavored f'urinaaetroa product we
often teed upon; by tin.' sunie MM «»d skill'in improving the loose, open-leaved Kale—a mere weed
in some placer,, has produced the burly, closrhead-
ed Cabbage and the tender Cauliflower; tbe nutric-
ious and sugary 'Carrot hits enianatettfrom-onc of tht
farmer's most troublesome weeds; andsGiant Asparagus, from a comparatively mere pigmy of its
own character, found on the sea-shore ; while the
Tomato,because nature was more lavish in hei* bouu-
ty, had been almost left to itsel-f, 10 improve by accident. It i.s true that there are a tew varieties of good
merit, but there is much room for improvement.—
Why should a hollow tomato be recognized as worth
culture, so long as the same care which- 1»oh been
bestowed on other things would accomplish solidity?—and why tolerate ihose of unequal surface,
when they may fie shaped like the 1'ippin Applet*
Tbe flavor like-wise, notwithstanding the present
acknowledged excellence, may become considerably better.
How to bring about this improvement,, is a quei-
tion that is easily answered. Lei every one who has
a Tomato plot,—and who that has a garden has not
—notice the plants wheu in full bearing—aud one
or more will show more excellence than tbe Mhcrt
—pick from the very best, the most desirable fruit,
and save (fawn for -ced. Kepeat this each teason,
always having an eye to form, color, productiveness, flavor and size ; and if uo improvement taket
place, t&en consider the writer an ignoramus. I
have followed ths above plan forsevcral years, and
the result is quite satisfactory'* and so it will be
to others if adopted. Let thia bt more generally
done by private growers ; let them raise tbeitstandard of excellence, and the awarders of prizes at
the public exhibitions follow suit, ami tbe larga
grower for market will soon be forced to take a
belter sample to the eity, instead of die thick skinned, hollow subjects, which are too often seen on
the huckster's stal}. and which 'bounce' like a foot
ball. Wc shall then save weight and quality, in
return for good mouey.
An extract from the farewell address of Andrew
Jackson,
"Tou have no longer any oause to fear danger
from abroad ; your strength and power t»re well
known throughout the civilized world, as well at
the high and gallant b.aring of your sons. It it
from within, among yourselves, from cormption.
from disappointed ambit on, and inordinate thirst
for power, that factions will be formed and liberty
endangered. It is against such designs, whatever
disguise the actors may assume, that you have
especially to guard yourselves. You have the
highest of human trusts committed to your care.
Prorid.-nce has showered on this favored land
blessings without number, and has chosen you ax
the guardians of freedom, to preserve it for tht
human raoe,"

had reached Great Nemeha Mission on the 8th,
with news that Fort Laramie was in hands of
Indians. No particulars of the capture are given.
The Indians were a-scmbled nt the Fort in great
numbers. Mcssts. Nave and McCord, of Ash Hot-

Holyoke (Mass.) Mirror relates a somewhat carious affair which occuned in that place a few days
ago. A young lad was brought belore a magistrate
upon a charge of housebreaking, and the magistrate
ordered him to be remanded for trial, in default of
$200 bail. Al this moment the counsel for the
prisoner discovered that the^ complaint had not
been sworn to, and that, consequently, the poceed-
ings were illegal, and. turning to his client, ordered him to run. The Court ordered the officers to
pursue; and off ihey all started, the boy io advance,
progressing at railroad speed, closely followed by
the officers, the complainant, and several members
ol the complainant's family. The fugitive, however, was too fleet for his pursuers, aud reaching
the Connecticut State line, he ••jumped over," and
the chase was abandoned,
