OVER T H E RIVER.

Over the river they beckon to me,Loved ones who've crossed to the other side,

The gleam of their snowy robes I see,But their voices are lost in the dashing tide.

There's one with ringlets of gunny gold.And eyes the reflection of heaven's own blue,

He crossed in the twilight gray a id cold.And the pale tnist hid himtrom mortal view;

We baw not the angel« who met him there,The gates of ihe city wo couldnot see.

Over the river, over the river,My brother stauds waiting lo welcome me.

Over the river the boatmen paleCarrying another, the household pet ;

Her brown cuils waving in the gentle gale,Darling Minnie ! I see her yet.

She crossed on her bosom her dimpled hands,And fearlessly entered the phantom bark,

We felt it glide from its silver sands,And all our sunshine grew strangely dark ;

For none return from those quiet shores,Who cross with the boatman cold and pale;

We hear the dip of the golden oars,And catch a gleam of the snowy soil;

And lo ! they have passed from our yearninghearis,

They cross the stream and are gone for aye.We may not sunder the veil apart

That hides from our vision the gates of day.We only know that their barks no more

May sail with us o'er life's itormy sea;Yet somewhere I know on the unseen shore,

They watch, and beck, u, and wait tor me.

Arid I sit and think when the sunset's goldIs flushing river and hill .ind shore,

I shall one day stand by the water cold,A ud list for the sound of the boatman's oar;

I shall watch for a glaem of the flapping sail;1 shall hear the boat as it gems the strand,

I shall pass from sight with the boatman palefTo the better shore of the spirit land.

I snail know the loved who have gone before,And joyfully sweet will the meeting be,

When over the river, the peaceful river.The Angel of Death shall carry me.

BT WASHINGTON IRVING

I have often had occasion to markthe fortitude with which women au.itniuthe rnor-t overwhelming reverses of for-une. Those diMiste.ro which break

down the spirits of a wan, ana prostratehitri in the dust, seem to call forth allthe < nergtfcs of the softer sex, and give(such intrepidity aud elevation to theircharacter, (hat at times it approachesto sublimity. No hing can be moretouching than lo behold a soft and ten-der female, who had btmn all weaknessand dependence, and alive to everytrivial roughness while treading theprosperous paths of life, suddenly rising

As the vine which has long twinedts graceful foliage about the oak, and

I can wit>h you no better lot," saidie,.with euihiihiasru, " than to have awife and children. If you are prosper-

u», there they are to tihnre your prospentv ; if otherwise, the}' are to com•ort you." And, indeed, I have^ob-lerved that a married man fulling intonisfortune is more apt to retrieve hisiiuation in tho world than a singleine; partly because he is more stimu-ated to exertion by the nececsities ofhe helpless and beloved beings who de-•end upon him for cubsis ence; buthiefly because his spirits are soothednd relieved by domestic endearments,nd his *elf-rer.pect kept, alive by find

by a succession of Biidden disasters, itwas swept from him, and he found him-self reduced to almost penury. For atime he kept bis situation to himself, andwent about with a beggard countenance,and a breaking heart. His life was buta protracted agony ; and what renderedit more insupportable, was the necessityof keeping up a smile in the presence ofhis wife, for he could not bring himselfto overwhelm her with the news. Shesaw, however, with the quick eye3 ofaffection, that all was not well with him.She marked his altered looks and sti-fled sighs, and was not to ba deceivedby Ii is sickly aud vapid attempts atcheerfulness. She tasked all hersprightly powers and tender blandisli-meiits to win him back to happiness;but obe only drove ihe arrow deeperinto hid soul. The more ha saw causeto love her, the more torturing was thethought that he was s> on to make herwretched. A little while, thought he,and the smile will vanish from thatcli«ek—-fhe song will die away fromthose lips—the lustre of thosa eves willbo queuched with sorrow—and the hap-py heart which now beats lightly inthat bosom will be weighed dovru. likemine, by the cares and miseries of theworld.

At length he came to me one dayand related his whole situation in n toneof the deepest despair. When I hadheard him through, I inquired, "Doesyour wife know all this ? ' At the ques-tion he broke into an agony of tears." For God's sake !" cried he, "if youhave any pity on me, don't mention mywife; it is the ihought of her that drivesme almost to madness I"

" And why not ?" said I.know it sooner or later;

" She mustyou cannot

keep it long from her, and the intelligence may break upon her in a morestartling manner, than if imparted byyourself; for the accents of those «elove, soften the harshest tidings. Be-r-ides you are depriving yourseif of thocomfort of her sympathy; and notmerely that, but also endangering theonly bond that can keep hearts together—an unreserved community of thoughtana feeling. She will soon percei'-ethat somuiiing is secretly preying uponyour minW, a'id true love will not brookreserve; it feels undervalued and out-raged when even the sorrows of those itloves are concealed from it."

" Oh, but, my friend ! to think whata blow I am to give to all her futureprospects—bow I am to strike her verysoul to the earth, by telling her that herhu-baud in a beggar!—that shs is toforego all the elegancies of life—all thepleasures of society—to shrink with meinto indigence and obscurity ! To tellher that I have drugged her down fromthe sphere in which she might have con-tinued to move in constant brightness—the light of every eye—the admirationof every heart I How can she banrpoversy ? She has been brought up inall tho refinements of opulence. Howcan she boar neglect ? She hua beenthe iiJol of society. Oh, it will breakher heart—it will break her heart!"

"I saw his grief was eloquent, nod Ilet it have its flow, for sorrow relievesitself by words. When hm paroxysmhad subsided, and he had relapsed intomoody silence, I resumed the subjectgently, and urged him to break his sitnation to his wife. He shook his headmournfully, but positively.

" But how are yon to keep it fromher? I t is necessary she should knowit, that you m y take the steps properto the alteration of your circumstancesYou must change your style of living—nay," observing a pang to pass acrosshis countenance, " don't let that afflictyou.

—to fancy himself lonely and ub.uuou-d, and hjs heart lo fall to ri,iu, hireome deserted mansion, for want ol annhahitant. Thtso observations call toaiud a liltle domestic story of which !

[was once a wiuiesg. My iiitiiimtefriend, Leslie, had married a beautifuland accomplished girl, who had boonbrought up in the midst of fashionablelife, rthe had, it is true, no foituue,but that of my friei.d was aiapl«; ttndhe df lighted ' 'dulgiug herandtastes aud fancies that spread a kind ofwilctibry about the sux. " Her life "said he, "shall bo like a fairy tale."

The very difference in their charactws produced a harmonious combina-tion ; he was of a roinar.tii; and some-what fenous ci.st; t-he was all life andgladness. I have often noticed tlu-mute rapture with which he would guzeupon her in company, ol which hersprightly powers ni^de her the delight,aud how, in the midst of applause, hereye would still turn to him as f theroalone she sought favor and acceptance.When leaning on his arm, her slenderform contrasted finely with his full.manly person. The fond confiding airwith which sho looked up to him seem-eu to call forth a fiosb of triomphmo*pride and cherishing tenderness,' as ifhe doatcd on his lov.'lv burthen for itsvery helplewnan. Never did a coupleset lorth on the flowery path of e^rlyand well suited marriage with a fairerprospect of felicity.

I t was the misiortune of my friendhowever, to bave embarked »'« proper-

orn dowu with her into poverty and thedi.^t! I could—I could—God blessher! God bless he ' ' I ' cried he, bursting into a transport of griof and tenderness.

" And believe ma, rriy friend," said I,stepping up and grasping him warmlyby the himd, " believe me, she can b«the sa.ne with you. Aye, mor« : it willbe a soutCH of pride and triumph t<> her—it will call forth all the lutunt ener:;ies and fervent sytiijjaihies of her > »-ture; for she will rejoice t> prove thatshe loves you for yourself. There is inevery true woman's heart a gparK ofheavenly fire, which lie* dormant in thebroad daylght of prosperity; butwhich kindles up and beam-* ami blazesin the 'lark hour of adversity. No njanknows what, the «ife of his bosom is—no man knows what a ministering angelshe if, until he ha-< gone with herthrough the fiery trials ol this world."

There was something in tho earnest-uess of my manner, a 'd the njnirsjiivestyle of my language that caught theexcited imagination of Leslie. I knewthe auditor 1 had to deal with ; and,following up the impression 1 hadmade, I finished by persuading him togo home and unburthen his sad heartto his wife.

I must confess, notwithstanding' nil[ had said, I felt tome little solicitudefor the result. Who can calculateon the fortitude of one whose wht>)e lifehas been a round of pleasure ? Hert;ay spirits might revolt at the dark,dowuward path of low humility sudden-ly no uted out before her, and mightcling to the sunny regions in whichthey had hitherto reveled. Besides,ruin iu fashionable lite is accompaniedby so many galling mortificatious, towhich, in other rank* it is s itraDger,

had made the disclosure." And how did,she bear it ?"" Like an angel 1 It seemed rather

to be a relief to her mind, for she threwher arms around my nock, and asked ifthis was all that had lately mada meunhappy. But, poor girl,1' added he," she cannot realize the change we mustundergo. She has no idea of povertybut in toe abstract; she hae only readof it in poetry, where it is allied to love.She feels as yet no privation ; she euffai s no loas of acoustomed conveniencesnor elegancies. When we come practically to experience its sordid cares, itspetty humiliations—then will be thereal trial "

' But," said I, "now that you bavegot over the severest task, that of break-ing it to her, the sooner you let theworld into the secret the better. Thedisclosure may be mortifying; butthen it is a single misery, and soonover; whereas you otherwise suffer it,in anticipa'ioo, every hour ID the day.I t is not poverty so much as pretence,that harasses a ruined man—the strug-gle be ween a pi oud mind and an emptypurse—the keeping up a hollow showmust soon come to an end. Have the

to appear poor, and you disarmpoverty of its sharpest sting." On thiapoint I found Leslie porfcelly prapai-ed.He had uo la'lse prida himself, and as tohis wife, she was only anxious to conform to their altered fortune,

Some days afterwards he called uponme iu the evening. He had disposedof his dwelling-house, and taken a smallcottage in the country, a few miles fromtown. He had been busy all day insending out furniture. The new establisliment required few articles, andthose of the simplest kind. All thesplendid furniture of his lat« residencehaj been sold, excepting his wife's harp.That, he said, was too closely associ-ated with ihe idea of herself; it be-longed to the little story of thoir loves ;for some of the sweotest moments oftheir courtship were those when he hadleaned over that instrument, and listen-ed to the melting tones of her voice. Icould not but smile at this instance ofromantic gallantry in a dontiug hus-band.

He was now going out to the oottage,where his wife had been out all day su-perintending its arrangement. My feel-ings had become strongly interested inthe piog;ess of this family story, andas it was a fine evening, I offered to ac-company him.

H B was wearied with the fatigues ofthe day, and as he walked out, loll intoa fit of gloomy musing,

" Poor Mary!" at length broke witha heavy sigh from his lips.

" And what of her?" asked I ; " has.|anything happened to her?"

" What," said ho, darting an impa-tient glance, "is it nothing to be re-duced to this paltry situation—to becaged in a miserable cottage—to beobliged to toil almost in the meuial coucerns of her wretctied habitation ?"

" Has she, then, repined at thechange ?"

"l iepined! She has been nothingbut sweetness and good humor. In-detd, >he seems iu better spirits than Ihave ever known her ; she has been tome all love, and tenderuuas, aud com-fort."

•' Admirable girl !" exclaimed I."You call yourself poor, my friend ;you never were so rich—you neverknew tho boundless treasures of excel-lence you possessed iu that woman."

"Oh ! but, my friend, if this firstmeeting at the cottage was over, Ithiuk I could then be comfortable. Butthis is her first day of real experience ;she has been introduced into an humbledwelling—she has lor the first timelooked around her OD a home destituteof everything elegant—almost of every-thing convenient; aud may now be sitting down, exhausted and spiritless,brooding over a prospect of future pov-ertv."

excellent creatn—and everything is sosweet and still here. " O h ! " said she,putting her arm within his, and lookingup brightly in his face, "Oh, we shallbo so happy I"

Poor Leslie was overcome. Hocaught her to his bosom-— he folded hisarms around her—he kissed her againand again—he could not spoak, but thetears gushed into his eyes; and he hasoften assured me that, though the worldhas since gone prosperously with him,and his life has indeed been a happyone, yet never has he experienced a mo-meut of more exquisite felicity.

(Signed) D. D. PORTHII,Rear Admiral Commanding.

Admiral PORIBR is evidently ot thethe opinion of the Richmond papers,that Gen. BUTLER wao the "Jonah" whomarred the success of tha first expedition ;Gen. GRANT, in demanding BDTLSR'S re

moval, gave evidence of the same opin-ion, aad the publio will concur. Good-bye BuTLBB.

For forty five yuars he hats bfonproroineotfy before the public as a writer,t> irastor, an orator, & statesman and aJTuliiiuuui, In al! ho was ilistinguishod,but he linsbeon most celebrated for hisjpft of oratory and Jo* his scholarship,which gave liiin ;IB Kuropean as well &•an Ameiiean reputalior. This was rec-ognized in England by the bestowal ofdegrees by Oiford and Cambridge, andin this country by professorships andhigh, positions in our most distinguisheduniversities and colleges.

In private lifo he erjoyad the love r.ndesioem of all who knew him ; and, per-haps, no publio man who . has ever beenin political life iu this country has escap-ed with tis little peison;il enmity or abuseIt was left to the closing years of hislife to witness bu his part a narrowing ofviews and a manifestation of sectionaland fanatical feeling that large'y de-tracted from his previous reputation.

Mr. Everett was born in Dorchester,Massachusetts, on the 11th of April,1794. He graduated with tho highesthonors at Harvard College in 1811, hisliterary ability having already begun todiiplay itself. While an under graduatehe was the principal conductor of a magasine called the " Harvard Lyceum,"aud he left behind him in that institutiona reputation as a scholar and a writerthat became traditional. In 1812 hedelivered a poem before the Phi BetnK»ppa Society on American poets. Iu1813 he became the pastor of BrattleStreet Church in Boston, and soon wongreat admiraliou by the eloquence and

of the closing acts of ex-Qor. Blair'sadra'ni tration, was the pardoning out ofBtrte Prison of one of the parties whowere recently o tivioted of robbing Mr.Q orgo Peck's dry goods store in thiso'uy.—Dttrok Tribune.

PARDONED.—We understand tlmt oneof the firat act* of Grov. Crapo's admin-istration, was the pardoning out ofState Prison of ouo of the parties v»howere recently connoted of robbing Mr.George Peck's dry goods store iu De-troit.—Jackion Citizen.

Gov. BLAIR, in his farewell message"confessed" to numerous pardons, andgave his reasons. GOT. ORAFO, in that" inaugural," denounced the f'equent ex-eroise of tho pardoning power, and illustrates that denunciation by the pardon inquestion. A good beginning.

3 Had tho meinbers from Hills-dale been obedient to the almost ucani-

power of his pulpit discourses. " Iu 181-J j uiotis wish oi those that eleoted them;published his " Defense of Christi-

anity." In :he saaie year ho was ap-pointed to the Professorship of GreekLiterature of Harvard College, and lorfour years subsequently he devoted him-self in Europe to qualifying himself forthe duties of this post. While iu Eng-land he became the associate aud friendof Byron, Sir Waller Scott, Jeffry,Campbell, and o'.her distinguished liter-ary men. Iu 1819 Lti returned homeaud enterod upon tho duties of his Pro-ftjs^oiship, iu addition to which he editedthe North Ameriom .Review, which, underhis macagetnetit increased wonderfully iupopularity. Ia 1824 he first tsok partin polities, being in that year electedfrom the Middlesex district of JIassaohusetta to Congi ess. For ten years he•wfls a working member of Congress, andon leaving it in 1838 was elected Gover-nor of Massachusetts, to which office hewas re-elected for four years, duringwhioh his administration was dignified,useful r.nd popular. In the discharge ofriio ceremonial duties of this aud theother offices which be held ho was emi-cflntly happy, being dignified, gracefuland courteous. In 1839 he was defeatedby Gov. Morton by one voto, and soontherenftar he departed for Europe for thabenefit of his health. In 1841 he wnsappointed to represent the United Statesat the court of St. James, and althoughhe served there under four Secretariesv( State of various politics, he enjojedthe confidence and approbation of all.

Ilia cultivation and accomplishmentswore evoiywhoro recognized in England,and bis public addresses were receivedwith enthusiasm. In 1843 ho was offer-ad the inission to China, but felt com-pelled to decline. On his return to thoUnited Slates, in 1845, he was chosenPresident of Harvard University, whichofSoe he resigned in 1849. On lhadeath of Mr. Webster, in 1852, he wasappointed by Mr. Fillmoro, Secretaryof State of the United States, whichoffiao ho resigned iu 1853 for a seat intke Uuited States Senate, but in May,1854, he was compelled by tho LeblelUte of his health to resigh this a'so. Afuw months of rest and quiet restoredhim, when he devoted himself to literarypursuits, among which may bo mentionedan engagement with Robert Bonner, ofthe New York Ledger, to furnish an artiole weekly for ono year, in considerationof $10,000, to bo paid in advance to thafund for the purchase of Mount Vernon.

Ia 1860 be was cominited by a con»er?ative party, known as the Bell-Everett party, for the Vioe Presidency. Thispnrty was formed of tho more moderatetrsgic'ents of the other political partiesof the day, and was defeated. Fromthis time Mr. Everett held no officialposition, bat until 1862 was recognizedas an old stylo statesman, of tho Wobstorand Clay school, strongly conservativeand liberal ;n his views, and a strict con•titutional constructionism Subsequentlyho was induced to write and speak in amanner indicating that ho had been carried away by the fanatical, auti slaveryand anti-constitutional, policy of tho administration..

He is tho only private citizen of th<Uuited StiUes whose death has been ordored by the President to be announoecofficially by the State Department to thipaople, aud to be mourned as a nationabereavement.—Free Prtts,

had a fo-.v members elsewhere done thosame, Gov Blair would have received theeight votes ho lacked to securo his uoai-iii.-ition in caucus.—Jackson Citizen.

' ',Its none of our funeral," but thenwe can't help reminding the Citizen thatthe old proverb, " curses, like chickens,come home to roost," has been reriSedin this instance. Gov. BLAIR, after de-claring in his annual message that a lawauthorizing soldiers to vote in the fieldwould be unconstitutional, and if oon-stitutioual, against publio polioy, re-ceived " n«w light," put the State totho expense of an extra session, procuredthe enactment of n soldiers' voting law,and imaginod himself surejof being eloc-ted to the Senate. And nuw comes iutha " poetic ju&tioe" that ia said toov«rtake men.

The Board of Supervisors mat inadjourned session on Tuesday last, forthe purpose of approving tha bond ofthe Treasurer of the County. It friedthe nmount of bail to be given, at $150,000, and then "ivhereased" that it had notyet been determined who was Treasurer,and adjourned to the first Tuesday inFebruary. We can not see that anything is to be gained by this dilly-dally-ing on the part of the Board, but cansee that tho county bas been subjected un-necessarily to the expense of ona adjonrn-ed session, and may be to half a dozenmoro before the Supreme Court sbal'have determined the question of doubtfor the Supervisors. Mr. BLUM holdsthe certificate of election, and the Supervisors can neither injure his claim to b«the Treasurer, nor help the claim of MrM.CCOLL, by neglecting to approve tb«bond as required by She law.

the contractors do not desire a tormina-.ion of the war, and are doing everythingo continue it, that the great mass of the)eople want to oome back into the Unioninder the constitution, but are restrain-d by military power, and as the free-

Among thewounded are tha, commanderB of thethree leading brigaaes^Gen. Curtis beingwounded, not severely, but Cols. Pennibacker and Bell, dangerously. The landfront was a formidable one, tho parapetn plaoeg 14 or 15 feet high, but the men

went at it nob'y under a severe musketryfire. The marines and sailors went upgallantly, but tbe musketry fire from tbaeast end of the hind front was so severethat they did not suocecd in entering thawork. Tho navy fire on the work, judg-ing from the holes, must havo been ter-rific. Many of tbe ^uns were injured.How many thero were on the point Icannot sav—perhaps 30 or 40.

HISTORY OF THEWOSLD.BY PHILIP SMITH, B A.

One of the principal Contributors to the Pict>onariet ofGneh and Rutrtan Antiquities, Biography, and Gnographg.

PLAN OF THE WORK.Since Sir Walter Raleigh solaced bis imprisonment

iij. the Tower by tho composition of hu •' Uiutorj oftho World," the Literature of Kugland has never

ftd tho work which he loft unfinished. Therehave been " Universal Histories*" from the bulk ofau encyclopedia to the most meagre outline, in \vhiciithe annals of each nation aro eeparateiy recorded;but without un attempt to tra.co tbe -stury of DivineProvidence and human progress in one connqcted narrfttive. It ifl proposed to suf^ly this wan*, by ?. vrofk,condensed enough to ke-p it within a re&conftbie aize.but yoL fcofuli y« to be free from the dry baifiae<» ofepitome. The Literature of Germany abounds in ttory,—suchas those of ^Luller, Scnloifiw, Karl vonRottock, Dunoktr,and others,—which at provethedemaud for Kucha, book, and farnUh model.*, in some degree, for its execution. Bat even toose great work*are somewhat deficiont in that organic unity which iithe ch.j! uim of this "Hist, ry of theWorld,"

The story of ourwholo race, like that of oich seps'ata nation, has '* a beginning , a middle ^ d an end.Thatatory we propose to follow? fi,om i u beginning intb«4aor«d reeorda, and i>^m the dawn Q£ civilisationiu the East,—tfcrcugli iho successive Oriental Empire)—the risp of libwrty anl tbo perfection of heatheipolity, arts, and literatmo in Greece and Homo,-thechange which passed over the face of tho world 'ylthe light of Christianity sprang up,—tbe origin andflrat appearance of those barbarian races which over-throw both divisions of tlie Koman Empire,—the annals of the States which rote on tbe Kinpire'? ruins,including the pietiueoque details of medieval historyaud ihbsteady progress of modern libeity and L-irilizatjon,—and the extension ot these iniluerces, by diacovery, Cunqueat, colonization, and Christian muM'ouito tho remotest region.3 ol tbe earth In a word, asi(*parat(fbiitories reflect the d<*tnehed syeneo oiaction and suffering, our aim is to bring into one viewtha *uvt>riil parts which assuredly t'i.rin one fjiwholo, ruovicgonwardu, under the guiiJauco of DnProvidence, to the unknown end ordained m tbe Diipurpose.

No pains wiHbe Bj*at0d to nrKke this history scholarhiie in aubalanctj ai-d popular ii> style, it will be lounded on the best authorities,ancient and modern, origiual and-aeonndairy. Theraiit progress recently madein historical and critical investigations, the results obtftiuedfiom tho mouoru scienco of oojqpar*ti I e philology, and the d;Bcoveries which have laid open neisources of infofmaticn concerning the East, sfforsuch facilities a? to make tue proaent a fit «po«b. f urovr undertaking.
