THE TOAST. The feast :s o'er! Now lrinring wine In l.rdly cup is seen to sline -B1Metre-eheh eager ruest ; And ilentee fi's the erowdtld ball As deep as when the lu ral(i's eall Thrids in the loyal breast. Then up arosc the noble host And smiling eried, " A toast ! a toast i To al our ladyes fair. Here, before all I p-ledge the name Of Stanton's proud and beauteous dano The Ladye Cundetnre!" Then to his feet enel: gallant sprung, And joyous was the shout that rung As Stanley g:ve the word: And every eup was raikt-in high, Nor ceased the lbud and gladlsome cry - Till Stanoy's voice was heard. " Enough, enough," liean:iling sail, And lowly bent his haughty head, " That all may have their due, Now enelh in turn must ilay his p.:rt, And pledge the lailye of his heart, Like gnllant knights and t:ue,!" Then one by one each guest sprung up And drained in turn the briming cup, And nimed the loved oie's naiae; And each, as hand on high lie raised, Ilis lalye's grace or beauty pra:sed, H1er constaney and fame. 'Tis now St. T.con's turn to rise, On himt are fixed-those countless eyes A ga!!ant knight is he ; Envied by some, atlaired by all, Far famned in !adye's bower and ha:, The fliwer of chivalry. St Leon raised his ki:dling eye, Anal lifts the sparkling cup on lhigh : I drink to one," he sad:d "Wlose image never nny deapart, Peep graven in this grateful heart, Till memory be dtad. "To one whose love for m2 shall last When lightcr Iassions long hare past, So ho'v 'tis and true: To one whose love hath hinger dwelt, More deeply fixed, more keenly felt, Than any picalged by y.,u." . .:<h guest upstartt d at the word, A nd 'aid a lonil upon- his isword, 'i:hh fury fl:shing t ye, And ::,tan)* said : " We crave the name, 1'roud knight, of this most peerles danme, hos- love you count so high.' * St. Leon pausei as if lie woull . Not breathe her name in e.:rtss tool --Thus li ltvy o another: 'Then bent his nUble hral as though Tlo g~v that word the reverence einei., Atnd g< htily saidl: " My mnoh r i Touchinig Remniniscence cf General *Washiingten. Try ~ revolution was over. Eighit years' coid!iet i;d ceased, and the wanliors were noiv*.th sepatrate forever, turingti their.~u eap-: ens into ploughislhares, and their'canmps into .wiorkcshops.. The spectaile,-thaough. a sulime an d glo-. rious one, was yet attenided wvith sorroutful fleeings ; for, alas ! in the remtainis ohf thi.t g:dilanti armoy oaf patriotic solders, inow about to di.,band w ithout p:ay, wihout supiport, - stalked poverty and disease. T1he country had not the means to he grateful. The details of the cotndi:ion of mainy of' the offieers and soldiers of that period, ac cordiarg to histormy amnd oral tradition, wer tuelancholy in the extreme. Possessinig no~ me~anis ofl patrimttoral itnheritanice to 1all back up~on-thrmown out of evenz the perilious sup. porait of the soldier at th~e cojnaneneement of in ter, and hatrdly fit for any other duty .1hani that of the camp- their tituation cani better be imagine'd than described. - A single instancee, as a samnlle of the situ. .ation of miany of thae ilicers,.as related of the conduct'of Baron Steuben,.may not be anmisp., When the manin body of- the. army-t traslisiantded at Newt burg, and the veteran -soldi-er- weme bidldinag a partinig ftirzwuell to to each other, Lient. Col. Coerain, an age d soldiers of the New-l1amnpshire line, remnark ed. ith tears itn his eyes, ats lie shook hands withi the Baron: "For mysvelf I could stantd it ; but my wtife and daughters are in the garret of th:.t wretched tavern, and 1 have no means of rem o'ing them.". -' Comie, come," said the Baron, " don' jive- wvay thus. I will pay nmy respects to Mrs. Coeran and her daughters." When the good old soldier left them, thenr countenances were warm itih grratitud for lhe left there all lie had. In one of' the Rholide lantd regimenits were several conmpaies of' black troops, who had served through the wrhole wvar, atid thL ir biravery anid diSciplineC wero unurpatssed. TJhe Barotn observed one of thiese poor ne groes on the wharf at Newburg, apparenitly in great distress. "What is the mattor, b)rothter soldier ?" " Why, master Baron, I w'ant a tdilar to get homie wvith, now the Conagress has no further use for mie." . The Baron was absent for a few moments, and then returnaed with a silver dollar, which he had borrowed. " There, it's all I could get. Take it." 'rho negro received it with joy, hailed a sloop whbich was passinug downi tile riv'er to New York, mand as he reached the deck, took off his hat artd said. *"God bless you,.Master' Baron !" These are only sinagle illustrations of the army at the close of' the wvar. Indeed, Washington had thisvtiewv at the close of his farewell address to the army at Rocky 111ill, in November, 1793. " Andc beimng nowv about to conclude these his hst public orders, to take his ultimate leave ina shiort time of the tmiitary charac ter, and to bid a fin~al adieu to the armties he has so long had the honor to command, lie can only again offe-r in their btehalf, his re commendations to) their country, and his prayer to the God of armies. "May ample juste lbe donte thenm here, and may the chioiceet of the lleaven's favors, both her-e and hereaf'ter, attend those who, 'under divine auspices, have secured ininutmer arble blessinmgs for others. "-With these wvishes and this benedictioni, -the Commainder-in-Chief' is about to retire fromt service. The curtain o1' separation will soon be. irawn, and the military scenes to Linm will be closed forever. -The closing of the " military scenes" 1 am about to relate. New York, had been oceupied by Wash ington on the 25th of N~ovembe~r. A few datys afterwards lie notied the Presidenit of Congress, which bodly was lthen in session -at Annapolis, in .Maryland-that as the war was now closed, he should consider it his ,duty to proceed thertco and surrender to t. t body the coninission which he Ld re erived tom tl.ei seven years befoV'. The morning of the 5th. of December, +783, was a sad and heavy one to the iem natt of the American army ii the city of New York. - The ioon of that day was to witness tire farewell of Washington-he was to bid adieu to his iilitary comrades for ever. The officers, who had been with himl in soleti council, the privates who had Tought and bled iin the "heavy fighlt," under his orders, were to bear his commainds no longer. The manly form and dignified coun. tenance of the " great captain" was hence. forth to live in their imemoties. As- the hour of noon apprnached, the o garrison, at the request of Wasl.ing. ton hiiself, was put in motion, and mareht d down Broad street to Francis's tavern, his headquarters. le wished to take leave of private soldiers alike with officers, and bid them all adieu. His favorite light i:fantry were drawn up in lite facing in wards, througi Pearl street, at the foot of* Whiteh.dl, where a barge was. in readiness to convey him to Pou ell's' look. Within the-dinitg roomt1 of the tavern were gathered the generals and field otlicers, to take their farewell. Assembled theie were Knox, Greene, Clin. ton, Steuben, Gates, and others, who had served with him faithfully and truly in the tented field," but alas! where were others that hal entered the war with him seven vears :efore ? Their bones crumbled in the sil from Canada to Georgia. Montgonery had yielded up his life at. Quebec, Wooster fel:l at Danbury, Woodbull was barbarionts ly murdered while a prisoner at the aitmHe ott Long Islami, and Mercer fell mortally wc,unded. at Princeton ; the brave and ch:v ahiC Laurens, after disp1laiying the most lie. roie eourage in the trenehes of Yorktown, died in :I tilling skir.oish ia South Caroli m; the brave but ceceti: ic Leo was no longi r livinlg, and I'utnam, like a helpless child, was stretched upon the bed of sickness. IndodL, the batte!-field and time had thitied the ranks ubich entered with him ott the coit filet of Intdependence. 'ashiigton entered the room-the liner of separation hat come. As lie raised his eye and glanced on the iaces of those as Eembled, a tear coursed down his. chtdek, and his voice was tremulous as he saluted thetm. Nor was lie alone. Mei, " alhi.;t unused to the mehing mood," stood arout d him, whose uplifted hands to cover the'r brows told that the fears which they in vaitn attempted to conceal bespoke the angui: they could not hide. After : mont' s coivermatiOn, Washtiig ton eal!d or a of wine. It was brouiht to himo. Turnb;g to -h o!ieeis, lie thu.; :sid-(e-ed them : " W ih a heart fu!l of lov and grnii!ib., I now take iy final leave of yu. uid mest devoutly wish your litter days may i as propperous and hiaipy as your firnei ones have beeni glorious and honorable," Lie then raised the glass to !;s lips, and ad dued, " I canntot enm to eac of y*ou ta~ke my leacve, but shiall be' oblige'd to you if each of you uill take nme Iby the htatd." G.eneral Knox, w'ho sood ntearest, um st into tears, atid adh-anced, itteapiiable of utt e: hand, and etmbrae.d thim. [IThe oflivers c:tue up successively, ad tookl ani effec iitinte leave. No w'oulds wete spmken, lnt. all was the "' siletnt elot;uece of tears." \\ hiat were inure words at such at scene ? N. .il.inig It was the fet hings of the hieart-thillitng, though un.spoken. WVhen the last officer had embracd hitm, Waishiirgton left the roomt, followed by his comiradles, and paussed tld~oughi the line <I light intfatry. llis step was stow amid mtens ured, huis head unicovered, anLI tenrs tlow~ irg thick and fast, as he looleil from side to side at the veterains to whom lie niow bade adieu fort ver. Shortly ani ev.enit occurred iore toucl.ing thi' all the rest. A gig'an tic solier, who had stood by his sitde at Treniton, steppevd forth f'romi the tanks, and entendedIC his handu. . "Fatrewi t1l, myi belovedh general, farewell." Wash.inigtott grasped his handt ini conivil sive emotion int boith of h5s. Ail discipline was ntow at ain enid. .'Te oflice'rs could niot restraint the mcen ts they rushed f'orwcard to taike Washiingtotn by the hanuid, anid the rio lenit sobsj antd'tears of the soldiers told howh deply enigraved uponi thir all'e:ionis was the love oef t hir conuidlter. At h.-nmth~ Wasigtonm ecached the barge att Whitehall, and (etrd it. At t!.c fit strokeo of the oars tic ro.-e, and tutring to the com pantions of his gImyut, by wainig his hiat, bade thiemt a silenit adieu. Thecir ant swer was otnly ini tears: and the ofiie.rs and men, with glistening eyes, waitebhed the re ceding boat till the fonn of their noble cent muander was lost sight of itt the di.,tance. [N. Y.

Nov i if 45 THE MARRIAGE STATE; Shall Happiess and enIlth, or .fllsery and N'cknesa, nfend l I MOST STARTLING CONSIDERATIONS I Reflections for the Thoughtful. Strange that countless human beings exist and drag through life as do the beasts of the deld, or tle insects of the carth, eviicing no more thou;ht or reflection than though the noble faculties of mmd were not vouchslafed to them. Mtfary such are husbands and fathers, upon who a are depeldcent the health, the well-being, and "e hapinoess tif a confiding and affectionate wife, with perhaps a famnily of childlren. 110W OFTEN :T ltAPPEFNS TrtAT THEP WIFE LINGERs FROM YEAR TO YEAR In thlat pitial~he condi.inn as not even for one day to feel the happy anid exhierthtig lituence incident to the etny iuent of health. tShe inny not be an in~valid confined to her bed, or even to her room; as her pride, ambition ahd eergy induce and nerve her to take personal charge of her hlousehold, even when her health will not admit oc it ; but she is nevertheless perceptibly sinkinig from daty to day, antd always ailling. Thus, tda'y after day, and month aifter month tran spire. 1ier health daily sinks, till fiually even the huipe of recovery nto lunger remains. And thus THE BLOOMING BRIDE,. Bult a few' years ago in the Buesh of henaith and yonlth, and buoncy of spirits, raupidly, andI apepa rently inexplicably, becomes a feeble, sickly, de bilitated wife, with frame emnaciaited, nerved un strunlg, spirits depressetd, countenantce bearing the ilup~rers of sufring, and an atter physicaf and inenltal prostration. deinectimes5 this deplorable change mnay and tines arise from torganuic or costitutiolnal dauses. But oftener, by far oftener, to gross and ino~Xcutsable ignoran~ce of thle simplest and plainest rules of health as connected with the marriage state, the violation of which entails disease, suffering and misery, tnt only to the wife, but often llereditary Coniplaints up~on the Childfent " UNTo THiE TvitD AND FOURiTt GENERATION," Trnismittinog CONSUMPTION, SCRIOPULA, HYPO50i1ONDItlA, INSANITY, GOUT, KING'S EVIL, antd other dIseases, as a DREADFUL INHERITANCE froma tihe Parents. And most this continue I Shall we be wise in all that concerns the caittle of otur fields, our horses, our sheep, our cows, our oxen, the nature and chlaracter of the soil we posses.s, the texture and quality of onr goods andi merchandise ; but in all that concerns ourselves as human beings, with human functions and passions, subject to greatt derange mncut, in~volvin~g our future peace and happiness in all that concerns the heal th and welfare of the wife of our ntractions, anad the mother of our chil dren ; in all that concerns the mental and physlcal welt being of those children, we should be ia mersed in the darkest and mnust BENIGHTED iGNORANCE, ais cL'LIrAm2.3 AS :agxcustaLKx! Ilow long shaull this ignorance prevail so p reo.. tire of its hitter fruits I How long shall the wife antI 0nother be ignlorant of the nature, character andi causes of the various womb and sexual colleaints, etubitteriing her days by suff'ering-sui'oring often prolunged to years, eventuating in a complication of di.rases utterly and hopelessly ineurable 1 Shall we fur ever close our eyes to the results of physio logical science by which we may arrIve at an understanding of ourselves as men and women suhject to serious life-long enduring diseases, anti perpetuating them to our children.
