Til IE PIETY. I
To be the thing we seem;
To do the thing we doom
Enjoined In duty;
To walk in faith, nor dream
Of questioning God's scheme
Of truth and beauty.
Casting seif-love aside,
Discarding human pride,
Our hearts to measure;
In humble hope to bide
Each change in fortune's tide
At God's good pleasure.
To .trust, although deceived;
Tell truth, though not believed,
Falsehooh disdaining;
Patient of ills received,
To pardon when aggrieved,
Passion restraining.
With love no wrongs am chill,
To save, unwearied still,
The weak from falling;
This is to do God's will
On earth, and to fulfil
Our lievcnly calling.
The Headless Horseman.
'God speed you, and a safe .journey
to you Charley,? ejaeutaied the master
of the little shebeen horse at Ballyhooloy,
alter his old friend and good
customer, Charley Culnane, who at
length had turned his face homeward
with the prospect ot as dreary a ride,
and as dark a night at* ever fell upon
the Blackwater, along whose banks he
was about to journey.
Charley Culname knew the country
well, and, moreover, was us bold ami
as daring a rider as any Mallow boy
that ever rattled a four-year-old upon
v i? i i
urumrue race course, lie mm gone
to Fermoy in the morning as well lor
the purpose of purchasing some ingredients
required for the Christinas dinner
by his wile, as to gratify his own
vanity by having new reins lit led in his
snathe, in which he intended showing
off ilie old mare at the approaching
St. Steven's day hunt.
Charley did not g"t out of Fermoy
until late; for although lie was noi
one of your very particular sort in anything
relating to the common occurrences
of lite, yet in all the ipp'?intments
relating to hunting, riding,
leaping, in short, in whatever was connected
with the old mare, Charley, the
saddler said, 'was the devil to plaze.'
An illustration of this fastidiousness
was afforded by his going such a distance
for a snaffle bridle. Mallow was
lull twelve miles nearer Charley's farm
(which lay just three-quarters of a
mile below Carrick) than Fermoy, hut
Charley had quarreled with all Mallow
saddlers, and no one would ' content
hi in in all particulars but honest Mick
Twomey, of Fermoy, who used to assert?and
who will doubt it??-that he
could sticli a saddle better than the
lord lieutenant, although they made
him all as one as king over Ireland.
The delay in the arrnngcrm tit of the
snaffle bridle did not allow Charley
Culnane so long a visit as he had at
first intended to his old friend and
gossip, (Jon. lSuckley, of the Haip ol
Erin. Con., however, knew the value
of time, and insisted upon (/hurley
making a good use of what, lie had to
spare. 41 won't bother you waiting
for water, because I think you'll have
enough of the same before you get
home; so drink otF your liquor, man,
it's as good parliament as ever a gentleman
tasted.'
Charley, it must be confessed, nothing
loth, drank success to Con., and
success to the jolly "Ilarp ol Erin,'
with its head of beauty and its string*
of the hair ofkgoid, and to their better
acquaintance, and so on, from the bottom
ol the bottle reminded him that
Carrick was at the bottom of the hill
on the other side of Castletown Uoclie,
and tiial ho bad got no iurther on hi*
gossip's at Rallyhooley, ctoec to the
big gato at Conuamoro. Catching
hold of his oilskin hat, therefore, w hile
Con. Buckley went to the cupboard
for another bottle of the 'real stuff,' ho
regularly, as h? termed it, bolted
from his friend's hospiliality darted
to the stable, tightened his girths, and
put the old inare into a canter toward
home.
Charlev cantered uravlv. regardless

had anticipated, tell in torrents; the
good old woman's currants and raisins

Charh y, who wax proud of showing
that ho belonged to the Mloyal Mallow
light horse voluleers,' always strapped
belorts him, and u>ok care to never
destroy the unlit.uy ellect by putting
it on.
Notwithstanding that the visit to
the jolly Mlarp ot Erin' had a little increased
the natural eoinplaeeney ol his
mind, the drenching of his snaffle
reins began to uisturb him, and then
followed a train of more anxious
thoughts than even were occasioned
by the dreaded del eat ol the pride of
his long anticipated turn-out on St.
I Olepheu's day- In an hour ot goodfellowship,
when his heart was warm,
i and his head not over cool, Charleyhad
backed his old mare against Mr.
Jepaon's bay filly Desdcuioiia, for a j
neat hundred, and he felt sore inisgiv- I
ings as to the prudence ol the match. '
lie now arrived at the bottom of
Kilcununer Hill, and his eye fell on the
old walls that belonged, in loruter
tunes, to the Knights Templars; but
the silent gloom ol tin.' ruin was broken
only by the heavy rain which spashod
and paltered on the grave stones,
lie then looked up to the sky to see if
there was among the clouds, any hope
lor the mercy on his new snaffle reins;
ami no sooner wtn; his eyes lowered
ihan his aiicuiion was nrresled by an
object so extraoidiimry as almost led
bin: to doubt his senses. The head i
apparently ot a while horse, wiih short,
cropped oafs, laige, open nostrils, ai?d
immense eyrs, seined rapidly to follow
l.yin. No eonneciiou with body, legs
or rider could possibly be iraced.
1 he head advanced. Charley's old
mare, loo, was moved by this unnntur
al sight, and, snorting violently, increased
her lrot up tne hill.
The head moved forward and passed
on, Charley pursuing it with asLouishing
gaze, and wondering hv
what means and lor what purpose llns
detached head thus proceeded through
I le air; lie did not perceive the coresponding
body until ne was suddenly
Mauled by tiuding it close by his side.
Charley turned to examine what was
thus so socially jogging on wilh him,
when a most unexampled apparition
presented itsell to Ins view. A figure
whose height lie computed to be nt
least eight teet, was seated 011 the
t?ody ;*11?J legs oi a winte horse lully
eighteen hands and a halt high. In
this ineasnrenienl (./hurley could not
be mistaken, tor his own mare was
exactly Hltcen hands high, and the
body that thus jogged alongside, he
couid at once determine, was at least
three hands ami a hall higher.
Alter the first feeling of astonishment
was over, he exclaimed, Tin sold
now forever!' But still lie directed
his attention to this extraordinary
body, and having examined it with
the eye ol a connoisseur, he proceeded
to reconnoiter the figure so unusually
mounted, who had li therto ivniained
perlectly mute* Wishing to
see whether his companion's silence
arose irom bad temper, want of conversational
powers, or fiom a distate
to water, and the tear that the opening
ot his mouth might subject him
to having it tilled with rain, he endeavored
to catch a sight ot his eompanon's
lace, in order io form an opinion
on that point . But his vison tailed in
carrying him luriher than the top ot
the collar ot the figure's coat, which
was a scarlet single-breasted hunting
trock, having a waist ol a very oldfashioned
cut, reaching to the saddle,
with two huge shining buttons al
about a yard distance behind.
I "bVoht. t o see tun her than this.
too,' thought Charley, 'although he is
mounted ofthis horse, like my cousin
Darby, who was made baronr constable
last week, unless it is Con's whiskey
that has blinded me entirely.
Huwover, ^0 farther he could not, and
alter straining his eyes lor a considerable
time to no purpose, he exclaimed,
with pure vexation, 4By the big bridge
ol Mallow, it is no bead at all he has!'
'Look, again, Charley Culnane,' said
a hoarse voice that seemed to proceed
Ironi under the right arm ol the ligu
re.
Charley did look again, and now in
the proper place?lor he clea.ly saw,
under the aforesaid right arm, the
Mi'Std from which the voice had It)'')
cctded, and such .1 head no mortal
ever saw before. It looked like a
large cream cheese hung around with
black pudding. No speck or color enlivened
the ashy paleness of the depressed
features; the skin lay stretched
over the uucarLhly surface almost
like the parchment head of a drum.
Two fiery eyes ol prodigious circumfieuce,
with a strange and irregular
motion, flashed like meteors upou
Charley, and a mouth that reached
from cither extremity of two ears,
which peeped forth from under a profusion
of matted locks of lustreless
blackness. This head, which the figure
had evidently hitherto concealed
from (/barley's eyes, now burst upon
his view in all it* Indeousness. Charley,
although a lad of proverbial courage
in tho county of Cork, could not
but feel his nerves a little shak?u by
this unexpected visit from the headless
horseman, whom he considered
- 1 - 1 1 v '
ndent J ournnl.
UllDAY NOVEMBER
this figure must doubtless be.
The crop-eared heud of the gigantic
horse moved steadily forward, always
keeping from six to eight yards in advance*
The horseman, unaided by
the whip or spur, and disdaining the
use of stirrups, which dangled useless
from the saddle, followed at a trot b>
j Charley's side, his hideous head now
lost behind the lapel ot his eoat, now
starling lorth in all its horror as the
motion ot the horse caused his arm to
move to and fro. The ground shook
under the weight of its supernatural
harden, and tile water in the pools was
agitated into waves as he trotted by
them.
On tbey went?boa.Is without bodies
and bodies without heads. The
deadly silence ol night was broken only
by the teartul clatter of hoots and
the distant sound ot thunder, which
rumbled above thu mystic hill ol Ceeanno
a Mono Kiuuea. Charley, w ho
was naturally a merry-hearted and
rather talkative fellow, had hitherto
fell tongued-ticd by apprehension; but
finding his companion showed no evil

I'atagoniun dimensions of the horseman
:in<i his headless steed, plucked
up all lus courage, and thus addressed
the stranger:
'Why, then, your honor rides mighty
well without stirrups*'
'Hump!'growled the hejy.1 from under
that horseman's right arm.
'This is not an over civil answer,'
thought Charley; 'hut no matter, he 1
was taught in one ol them riding
house*1, may-he, and thinks nothing at
all about hunipting his leather breeches
at the rate ol ten miles an hour.
I'll try him on the other tack. Ahem!'
said Charley, elearing his throat, and
leeling at the same tune rather daunt- 1
ed at this second attempt to establish 1
a conversation. 'Alum! that's a <
mighty neat coat of your honor's, al- ,
though'tis a liitlc too long m the
~ O (
\vai*>t lor ihe present cut.'
'Humph !' growled again the.
This second humph was a terrible I
thump in I ho lace to poor Charley,
who was fairly both?Tod to know |
what subject tie could start that would
prove more agreeable. ' l is a sensible 1
head,' thought ho, 'although an ugly
one; lor 'us plain enough the man I
doesn't like Hat lory.' A t bird attempt. (
however, Charley was determined to j
make, and having tailed in his observations
as to the riding and the coat
ut his lellow traveler, he thought he
would just drop a trilling allusion to !
the wonderful headless horse that was j
jogging on so sociable by the side ol
t lie old mare; and as Charley was considered
about Curriek to be very
knowing in horses, besides being a :
private in the Hoyal Mallow light :
house volunteers, who were every one i
ol them mounted like real Hessians, i
he felt rather sanguine as to the result ,
of his third attempt. . ]
'To be sure that's a brave horse
your honor rides,' recommenced the
pi rsevenng Charley. I
'You may say that, with your ugly, <
mouth,' growled the head. ,
Charley, though not much llaitered
by the compliment, never1.belt ss chuckled
at his success in obtaining nil an- 1
swer, and thus continued! :
'May-be your honor wouldn't he a I- ,
ter riding him across the country?' '
'Will you tiy me, Charley?' said the
head, with an inexpressible look ol '
ghastly delight. i
'Faith, and that's what I'd do,' re- <
sponded Charley; 'only I'm alruid, the ,
night being so dark, ol laming the old ,
in.ire, and I've ever halfpenny ol a
hundred pounds on her heels.'
This was true "enough. Charley's |
cuuiiigu wits noimng dashed at the .
headless horseman's proposition; and
there never was a steeple-chase, riding
or leaping, in the country that Charley
(Julnane was not at it, ami foremost in
it.
'Will you take my word?' Raid the ,
man who carried his he id ho snugly
under his right arm, 'lor the safety oi
your mare?'
'Done,' said Charley, and away they
started, heller skelter, over everything,
ditch and wall, pop; the old mare never
went in such style, even in broad
daylight, and Charley had just the
start of his companion, when the
hoarse voice called out; 'Charley
Culuune, Charley, mail, stop for your
life; stop?* ,
Charley pulled up hard. 'Ay,' said
he, 'you may beat me hy the head, because
it always goes so much heloie
you; but if the bet was neck and neck,
and that's the go between the old marc
and Desdemona, I'd win it hollow]'
it appeared as it the stranger was
well aware of what was passing in
Charley's mind, for lie suddenly broke
out quite loquacious.
'Charley Culnone/ sajs he, 'you

Lies and their numerous applications, v
iiiusl bo evident'. NVbat shall tie '
diange be? What reiorms shall in ?
introduced ,in our present studies, and
what new studies shall bo adopted?
I'lino will permit me to make only a [
few cuiggesiions in root) to these important
(jnestions. '
Tb?? lhnimiry School should give a *
Knowledge ol otyeots, their forma ami
i-olors and nHes. In doing this, draw- ?
ing will he found highly useful, and it
will {trove an agreeable change lroin '
studies less interesting. It is, too, the
i I
Inundation ol le.'huieal education, and
is important to a'l of every trade and
profession. By training the eye to
keenness, and the hand to accuracy <
tnd rapidity, it will prove a valuable 1
ml to penmanship., orthography and 1
reading, in all ol which close obscrva- t
Lion is necessary. In its higher forms, ^
i?c mutrio, model, mechanical and j
trcliilccural, it should be continued
hrough the higher schools and col- \
egos. It is not mere picture-drawing ^
>f which I speak, but something high- c
r and more nselul. As a result ol ,
.his study, wo shall have better art- t
sis, engineers, media tits, arc I i ects,
\nd designers. Many articles, such as I
glast-pottery, cabinet furniture, prints,
ind other manufactures, may be renlered
worthless, or have their values t
increased many-lold according to their '
designs. Good designs increase the j
value ot prints from 'JO to 30 per cent. |
So important is this art of designing I
considered now, that a firm in New 1
York pays a designer in shoes $">,000
a year. By I he beauty ol bis designs
i iuamiluct?rcr of silverware in Taun
ion, Mass, drove every other tri iinilacturer
otit of 1 he maikel. A single
rnanuluetiuii'g company in Massachu
sttls 8tat"?J that their designs cost J<
them 0,000 annually, every dollar ol ! |
which went Io England, France and I
Germany. This sum should We saved '
to our own country.
Workmen do not sufficiently nmler
-tand the importance oi drawing, li I
is Haiti that if thin art were understood
by every journeyman wi a machine '
shop, the productive efficiency would 'J
be increased 33 per cent. I?y enabling
workmen to work Irom a design in- ;
stead of expensive models, this art
would save a vast amount of time and
money. A manager of ail .important
branch of industry at Wopcheritor,
Massachusetts, says that, when a lad,
be was oue oi a class ot thirteen, who
spent all their iei?iiro time ui studying
drawing- At the prevent time, every
one then in the class haa attained an
important position either aa manufacturer
or manager, and each haa owed
