He sleeps, hut not 'a id tbe Arctic snows, On which his deeds shed glory ; lie sleeps, but not where Bravo ftiws, Where his name is linked witb story. He has wandi-r'd wide o'er tbis ea, th of ours, And now where the palm trees wave. He has cloKt-d his eyes in a land of flowers, The beautiful, the brave. But be may not rest |a far from home ; And solemnly and slowly They have home him o'er the ocean foam, Wrapp'd in dealh'K slumber holy. And tnniiy a heart is clouded now By Ihe thought pf his waiting graTe, But there r-stw no shadow on his brow, Tbe beautiful, the brave 1 nis fiery soul has reachM its goal • What thou rh in youth he perish'd.

And toll tbe bell of.-tate for him We would have died to save j But let no tears his triumph dim, Our beautiful, our brave 1 We must; we must; 0! many eyes Even uow for liim are weepiu*?, And mournful sound* of woe arise From the land where be lies sleeping, And a nation's tears the banner dim Which o'er his bier they wave, But not for him ; O! not for him, The beautiful, ibe brave ! The sparkling cup of his fame was fiiPd,- Earth's trfgfai st boons were given,' And for him no vaulting impulse still'd, What more could we ask but Heaven ? We do not mourn when the eagle tree, Spurns bonds that but enslave, Yet. yet. 'tis hard to part with thee, Our beautiful, our brave! Purget Tim*J "Forget thee?''—-If to dream by night, and muse 01: the by day ; If all tl'm worship deep and wild, a poet's heart can pay ;: If praters in absence breathed for thee to Heaven protecting poWer j If winged thoughts that flit to thee—a thousand in an hour ; If tmsy fancy blending thee with all my future lot; If this thou call's!

Hid thirsty flowers forget to driuk the eve's refreshing dew! Thysell forget thy native laud, and its mountains wild and blue :■ Forget each old familiar face, each long-remem bered spot ; When these things are forgot by thee, theu thou shall be forgot! r,Ol' course—you men have no taste in such matters." We were silent for a moment; I am afraid we both felt a little cross and out of humor with one another. In fact, on my journey home, X had entertained serious thoughts of exchanging my old Ivcr watch for a more" modern time piece of gold, ai.d had mentally appropriated ten dollars to furthering that purpose. Savings Bank reflections hud come later, As we sat before the Arc each wrapped in thought, our neighbor, Mr. Wilnot, knocked at the door. He waa employed in the same stote as myself, and his wile was an old family friend. " I want you to congratulaU me,:' he said, taking a seat. " [ have purchased that little cottage out on the Hloomingd iie road, to day." " What! that beautiful little wooden cottage with the piazza and lawn, and Iruit garden be- hiud?" exclaimed Kitty, almost enviously. "Is it possible I" I cried, A little cottage home Of my own. just like that I had often admired on the Bloomiugdale road, had always been the ohe Crowning ambition of my life—a distant, and almost hopelefs point, but no lesn earnestly desired. •'Why, Wilmot." said I, "how did this happen? You've only been in business eight or teu years longer than 1, at a salary but a trifle larger than mine, yet I cou;d as soon buy up the Mint aa purchase a cottage like that." "Well," said my neighbor, " we have all been working to this end for years. My wife has darned, patched, mended and saved—we hav lived on plain fate, and done wilh the cheapest things. But the magic charm of the whole affair wbb that we laid aside every penny lhat was not needed by actual positive want. Yes, I have seeu my wile lay by red coppers, one by one." " Well, you are a lucky fellow," said 1, with a sigh. " Times are hard, you know, just now; tbe owner was not what you call an economical man, and he was glad to sell even at a moderate price, ^o you see that even 'hard times' have helped me!" When our neighbor was gone, Kitty and 1 looked meauingly at one another. " Harry," said she, " the rug isn't so bad after all, and my green silk dress will do for a year longer, with care." "And a silver watch is quite as good for all practical purposes as a gold repeater," said 1_ " We will set aside all i i.agiuary wants!" "The ten dollar bill must go to the bank," said Kilty. " and I'll economize tbe coppers, just as .Mrs. Wilmot did. Oh, how happy she will be among the roses in that eottage garden next spring!" Our merry teakettle sung us a cheerful little song over the glowing fire that night, and the burden was. " Economy and a home ol your owu, amid the roses and the country air!" How to .Kani a Haiiie. The other evening 1 came home wiih an extra ten dollar bill in my pocket—money that I had earned by out of hours work. The fact is, that I'm a clerk in a down town store at a salary of §600 per annum, and a pretty wife and baby to support out of it. I suppose this income will sound amazingly small loyour two or three thousand office-holders, but nevertheless we contrive to live very comfor table on it. We live on one floor of an imprfc tending little house, tor which we pay one hun dred and fifty dollars per annum, and Kitty—my wife, you'll understand—does all her own work, so that we lay up a neat little sum etery year- I've got a balance of two or three hundred dollars in the Savings Bank, the hoard of several years, and its astonishing how rich I feel now !• Roths" child isn't a circumstance to mel Well, I came home with my extra bill, and ex hibited it triumphantly to Kitty, whir ot course was d'dighted with my industry and thrift. "Now. uow, love." eaid I, "just add this to our account at the bank, aud with interest at the end of the year " Forthwith I commenced* casting interest and calculating in my brain, Kitty was silent, and rocked the cradle musingly with her foot. "I've been thinking, Harry!" she eaid after a moment's pause, " that since you've got thiB extra money, we might afford to buy a uew rug. This is getting dreadfully shabby, my dear,'you must see." 1 looked dolefully at the rug ; it was worn and shabby enough, that was a fact. " I can get a beautiful uew velvet pattern for seven dollars," resumed my wile. '■'Velvet—seven dollars," groanedI. "Well, then, a common tufted ru-g like thisi would only cost three," said my cautious better halt, who, seeing ebe could'nt carry ber first ambitious point, wisely withdrew her guns. "That's more seusible," said I, " Well, we'll see about it." " And there's another thing I want," continued my wife, putting her hand coaxingly on my shoulder, "and it is not at all extravagant.-cUker." " What is it ?"' I asked, softening rapiiiiy. " I saw such a lovely silk dress pattern in Canal street this morning, and I cat: get it for six dollars—only six dollars, Harry. It is the cheapest th ng lever saw." "But haven't you got a very pretty green silk dress ?" "That old thing. Why, Harry, I've woru ib ever since we were roiirrie*.'' '■ Is it soiled or ragged ?" "No, of course ; but who wants to wear the same green dress forever? Everybody knows it is the only "ilk I bave." " Well, what then?" "That's just ft- man's question," pouted Kitty. " And I suppose you-Have uot observed how old' fashioned my bonnet is getting.'' •' Why I thought it looked very neat and tasteful since you put on that black velvet winter Maiming.- "Marriage resembles a pair of shears," saysSiil- ney Smith, " so joined that they cannot be nepar- aied. often moving in opposite din-ctions, yet always punishing any one who comes between them."

Naturally indignant,' our traveler refused to pay such an exorbitant de- ma' d, and he was arrested at the Knit of tk« son of Vulcan. There being no other resOuice, Mr, McMurrai* was escorted to the magistrate's office, back of that bar. Af er being introd-iced" to the most augusv presence ofthe Squire, and th* charge stated, tho' following dialogue occurred : " Well, sir, what is your nameV " McMurrau, air." " Humph, Mr. McMurrau—no other namet" "John McMurran, sir." " No, Mr. McMurrap—no alias." " Of course I have not, Bir—I have bo need of oue." " Where do you live, Mr. Carrion ?"

" Then, Mr. Burton, you acted, sir—excuse me —like a tool 1" '•I don't come here to be insnlted, sit, aud no* man shall talk so to me 1" cried Mac. " I know you did not, Mr. Fulton—keep silence,- or I'll fine you—you ne'tetl, sir—don'l coutradiot me—like a perfect fool—and let tbis be a warning*,' sir. never to tru.it such a scoundrel an Kum Bildo (Ibe smith) fariler than you cwi sling a bull by the tail, sir ; (,o the plaintiff) I uiniu you—you! skunk! You'd steal the copper off youx dead mother's eyes, you poor, uo-souled hog." " The sentence of the court is. thut you, Enoa Bildo, shall have two dimes for your work, wliich is all it's worth, and if you say another word I'll kiiLck you down. Clear this court." Fully satisfied with this verdict, and highly amused with this adventure, Mac wentou his way.- This way of confounding names was a favorito hobby of lhe Squire's, and be was an adept iu the art. On one oceasi-on, When he Was summoned as a witness before a State Court, one of the lawyers1 undertook to pay him off in hiB own coin, Whcrr the Squire took the witness' stand, the following.' dialogue occuried :' " What is your name, sir?" "Peter laar'd." " How old are yon, itfr. Lizzard f" "My name is Izard—Peter Izard." " I beg your pardon, Mr. Gizzard, but I am a Utile baid of hearing this morning." " Izard, eir- Izard." "Ah, I understand. Well, Mr. Buziard, how old are you?71' " Now, look here, miBter, that's not my aamo, and I won't answer." " You won't answer my question, Mr. Trizzle— we'll see about that I Now, sir, -what's your age,' Mr. Drizzle t" The witness maintained a dogged ailfiWev " Perhaps he'd better spell his uame for you," laid the court, choking with laughter. "Eye," cried the witness, " zed-ay-ar-dee '." " Well, your honor, I called bim by that nanio all along—Weasel." "Auy fool might know it spells Izard!" Bhout- ed Peter." "May it please tbe court,-" said the attorney,- throwing himself up with an air of dignity, "either this witness,- Meaaels, must be removed, or 1 shull withdraw from the bar." ' You rascal!'' bellowed the infuriated Peter. "SberiH take charge ofthe witness," cried the' court,- stifling for a moment its mirth, for the only' sober laces in the assemblage were those of tho' lawyer and the witness.- "You be hanged!" called out Squire Izard— you and the court, too, you low-lived vagabond!'1 "A mittimus to the jail for ihfeo days, and $2V fine!" cried the court. He, the Sheriff, came up to Peter to carry him off. What's my name, Tom ?" cried1 tne Squire ft* he was led out. •' Prter Izard," was the prompt response. The following day the Squire waa pardoned1 and his fine rentitled ; btit never afterwards did* he venture to use the weapon that had been so effectually turned on himself.■ Tub Advantaob of 1;i;n i.oi.rs ovir Bachelors/ ■The following brieTmoral of wisdom was uttered by one who evidently is well acquainted with the ropes:" " Every scliool boy knows thst a kite will not fty 1,i'-v-- it lias a string tying it down. It is just u life. The mau who is tied down with half a dozen blooming responsibilities, and their mother,- will make a higher and stronger Sight than the bachelor, who, having nothing to keep htm steady,- igalways floundering in the mud. It you want to' lise in the world, tie yourself to somebody." The BntoE—I know oT no light more charming and touching than that ot a young and tender bride, lo her robes of virgin white, lerl' up trembling to the altar. When 1 thus behold a lovely girl, iu the tenderness of her years forsake the house of her childhood—and the implicit confl- dnnce and the self abandonment whicb lie longs to women, giving up all ibe world for the man of their choice ; when I hear,- in the good old language ol the ritual, yielding herself to him, " for better or lor worsi-, for richer, lor poorer, iu sickness and iu health, to love, honor, and obey, till death us do part,'; it biings to tbe mind the beau-" t lul aud affecting d' volion of Ruth—" Whith<T lhou guest I will go, and where lhou lodges! I- will lodge—thy people shall he my people, an* thy God my God."—Washington Irving,
