THE LEG I LEFT BEHIND ME.
SANTA ANNA'S SOLO.
I'm stuinplet? quite, since from the shot
Of Ccrro Gordo pengin',
I loft behind to pay the Scott
My grub, and gave my log in.
I dare not turn to view tlio plaoe,
Lest Yunkeo foes should find me;
And, mocking, shako boforo my faoo
Thy Log 1 left behind inc.
At Liuoua Vista 1 was suro
' That Yankee" to surrender:
And bade my men " Hurrah ! for yon'ro
All going on u bender."
That all my hopes and plans wore dashed,
My scattered troops remind mo ;
But though 1 thero got soundly thrashed,
I left 110 leg behind me.
Should Tati.or of my track got scent,
Or JScott beat np my quarter.-*,
I may as well just bo content
To go across tho waters.
But o'on should that my fortune be.
Fato has not quito resigned mo;
For in tho Museum I shall sco
Tho leg I left behind mo.
The Miserere ill Home.
The night on which our Saviour is supposed
to have died is selected ibr this service.
The Sistine Chapel is dimly lighted, to correspond
with the gloom of the scene shadowed
forth. The ceremonies commence
with the chaunting of the Lamentations.
Thirteen candles, in the form of an erect
triangle, were lighted up in the beginning,
representing the different moral lights of
the ancient church of Israel. One alter another
was extinguished as the chauut proceeded,
until the last and brightest one at
the top, representing Christ, was put out.
As they one by one slowly disappeared in
fhr? <U>f>nr>m"nrr (rlnmrv n liiirhf ?onm
.*.Q ) ? o ?--edgathering
over the hopes ami fate of man;
and the lamentation grew wilder and deeper.
But as the Prophet of Prophets; the L'ght,
the hope of the world, disappeared, the lament
suddenly ceased. Not a sound was
heard amid the deepening gloom. The
catastrophe was too awful, and the shoclc
was too great to admit of speech. He who
had been pouring his sorrowful notes over
the departure of the good and great seemed
struck suddenly dumb at this ^realest woe.
Stunned and stupified, he could not contemplate
the mighty disaster. I never felt a
heavier pressure on my heart than at this
moment. The chapel was packed in evfcry
inch of it, even out of the door far back in
the ample hall, and yet not a sound was
heard. I could hear the breathing ol ihe
mighty multitude, and amid it the suppressed
half drawn sigh. Like the chaunter, each
man seemed to say, "Christ is gone, we are
orphans?all orphans!" The silence at
i? i? ,r..i i .i.~ i.. i

should shriek out in agony, when suddenly
a low wail so desolate and yet so sweet, so
despairing and yet so tender, like the last
strain of a broken heart, stole slowly out
from the distant darkness and swelled over
the throng1, that ihe tears rushed unbidden
to my eyes, and I could have wept like a
child a child in sympathy. It then died
away as if the grief were too great for the
strian. Fainter and lainter, like the dying
tone of a lute, it sunk away as ii iiic msl
~u 1 1 _ 1 1 1 i

there burst through the arches a cry so piercing
and shrill that ii seemed not the voice
of song, but the language of a wounded and
dying heart in its last agonizing throb.
The multitude swayed tu it like the forest to
the blast. Again it ceased,and broken sobs
of exhausted grief alone were heard. In a
moment the whole choir joined their lament
nnrl cnAmprl in \imnn tuifli A C
tcr a few notes they paused sixain, and that
sweet, melancholy voice mourned on alone.
Its note is still in in\ car. I wanted to sec
the singer. It seemed as if such sounds
could come from nothing but a broken
heart. Ohl how unlike the joyful, the
triumphant anthem that swept through the
samcchapelon the morning that symbolized
the resurrection. .1. T. Heawijiv

turn from a passage round the world. We
therefore give it another start:
Mr. Chandler, in his lucent response of
a vote of thanks of llie common council of
Boston, of which he is the presiding officer,
cites the following parable told by a Turkish
dervis, to a traveller. It is even more
beautiful thqn Sterne's celebrated figure of
the accusing spirit and the recording angel.
"Everv man." savs he. "has two anrrnls ?
* / J ? 1 o 1 *
one upon his right shoulder and one on his
left. When he does anything good the angel
on the right shoulder writes it down and
seals it; because what is once well done is
done forever. When he does evil, the angel
on the left shoulder writes it down, but
does not seal it. Ho wails till midnight.
If before that time the the man bows down
his head and exclaims, '-Gracious Allah !?
I have sinned!?forgive me!,?the angel
rubs it out; but if not, at midnight he seals
it, and the angel upon the right shoulder
weeps."
Singular Anecdote.?Several vears arm
- j ?;
a charity sermon was preached in a dissenting
chapel in tho west of England. W hen
the preacher ascended the pulpit,-he thus
addressed tho hearers?"My brethern, before
proceeding to the duties of this evening,
allow me to relate a short anecdote. Many
* years have elapsed since I was last wthin
the walls of this house. Upon that evening,
. among the hearers came three men with the
intention of not only scoffing at the minister,
but with their pockets filled with stones
for the purpose of assaulting him. After
I
I he had spoken a few sentences, one said,
I C,D n him, let us be at him now but
the second replied, "No, slop till we hear
what he makes of this point." The minister
went on, when the second said, 'We've
heard enough now, throw I" but the third
interfered, saying1, "He's not so foolish as I
expected?let us hear him out." The
j preacher concluded without being interruptI
ed. Now, mark me, my bretheru?of these
j men, one was executed three months ago.at
j Newgate, for forgery, the second, this moment,
lies under the sentence of death, in

Guerrilla. War.? The tenn guerrilla \
| is a dimutrvo of the Spanish word guerra, 1
"war," and literally signifies a "little war." j
| It is a mode of warfare scraeely, if at all re- J
! moved from that adopted by the aborgines, J
! both being characterized by want of con- .
c.eit in the leaders of difiurt parties, and by j
| the merciless destruction of women, child|
ern, and unarmed prisoners. The only
I countries in which this system has ever
; been practised are Syria, (Jircassia, Algeria
, Spain, and Mexico, and it seems therefore
j that the Arabian blood is necessary to give
! disposition for this suni barbarous mode, of
i warfare, distinguished for cruelly and its
j concomitant vice of cowardice. Wo need :
; nut remind our readers that the Mexicans
j derive this Arabic characteristic lrom their
I ilispanio-Moorish ancestors.

A O RIC U I. T t: It A Ij .
From the South Carolinian,
Tlic Cut Worm.
i The ravages of this troublesome doprei
dator in llie corn fields of South Carolina duI
ring tlic last Spring, has caused many inj
qurics to be m.ade respecting their provenj
tion. Perhaps more corn, is annua It)/ Inst
in our State Ironi these insects than is made
by ma mir ing; and this remark is true, when
we reflect that they attack the early planting
in rich moist lands, and that an early crop
has two chances to one over lute planting,
in our uncertain climate to make a heavy
a\r~ J ? i
it.ii/p. ?v u iiavu uusurvcu ui'ii pour suns,
I this season, have the best stands of corn and
! that on rich alluvial soils in some places,
! three unsuccessful attempts have been made,
jand a stand has not been secured as yet. !
; If the seasons do not continue laic, this will
j tell a had talc for the corn corp when the j
j bushels are to be measured up. The folio wj
ing practice is the only information we have
| been able to lay our hands on, which seems
j at all practicable, and added to the practice
J of steeping the seed in Saltpetre, might
i prove available as a preventive. It has
reason on its side, and therefore deserves a
trial. As soon as the corn is covered with
earth let a hand follow and apply a dressing
of ashes and ground plaster, at the rate of
one-third of the latter to two-thirds of the
former; or if plasters cannot be procured.
ashes alone, leached or unleached?the latter
would be preferable, of course. A handful
to each hill would be sufficient. A
slight dressing of lime would answer instead
of ashes, but in order to preserve the
hands, it should be dipped out with a proper
dipper, which should be made of a size suitable
to the quantity intended for each hill of
corn. We tell our readers candidly, the
suggestions contained in the above, have the
sanction of phylosophy as well as experience,
and also that this dressing will exercise the
further result of being decidedly beneficial
to the growth of the corn. The labor and
expense of making the application are
I comparatively trivial. It is probable the I
caustic qualities of the alkali afforded by the
I ashes and lime, keeps the worm from the
circle of its influence or destroys it. Wo
request our readers to give the above a trial,
and to give us an accurate account of the
result, both as to its efforts in preventing the
ravages of the Cut worm and in increasing
the crop. It should be dropped on the hill
after the corn is covered, and as it will not
blow away or evaporate, after it performs its
task of driving oil" the Cut Worms, it will
i bo covered up in working the corn, and
| thus add a substantial amount of nutriment
1 to the growing crop, by fixing the ammonia
i and stimulate the corn plants.
j Daiky Utkxsils.?.Vil dairy utensils
i should be scalded, rinsed, and dried every
j time they are used. Glazed pottery is not
: considered desirable for milk or cream, as
| the acid contained in them acts upon the.
glazing, (which is generally an oxide of
lead,) and converts it into an active poison,
vessels made of wood are preferred by many
others, Cor this purpose ; although they
are liable to become tainted with the acidity
of the milk, iti which csise they can only be
thoroughly cleansed by boiling, and when
this fails, a little salairatus added to the
boiling water will effectually neutralize the
aeitl. The vessels must afterwards be. im
merged for two or three days in water, which
slioukl occasionally ho chunked. iMilk vessels
may be made of'maple, white ash, hickory,
or white pine.
D?:i:r Run.? V lawyer in one of ihe
northern cities having a very red lace,
which it was understood was not the eflect
ol living on skimincil milk, was told that he
was not much of a lawyer.
"Why, sir." said he, ';l have been called
the '/('! p/'sl read lawyer in the city."
