TO THE RESCUE.
“ This is no time to stickle about trifles. Every
moment** delay increases the danger to which our
brave countrymen are exposed.”— Commercial BuU
lei in, 4th of May.
Awake ! sound the tocsin! for danger is nigh!
The slumber of peace must be broken at last.
Then up at the signal—re-echo the cry, [blast!
And wide thro* the land bear the war-trumpets
Hark! the foe ia upon ua—the peril it near!
The Mexican comes, like s flood in its might!
Now, nine is the hour “ to do and to dare!"
Up freemen! up fearlessly—on to the fight!
Will ye rest liere in safety, regardless of thoao
Who call for assistance your rights to defend T
Can ye pause for a moment while kindred blood
flows, [sccnd!
And the Mexican hawk on tlicir ranks may de-
Will ye coldly consider, while those who have come
To share in tho blessings so proudly ye boast,
Still ask your protection for children and home,
And all that by true men is valued the'most?
Up, up Louisianians! The cry has been brought
Eroin tho fair Rio Grande invoking your aid!
No lessons for valor to you need be taught—
Ye all know your duty; the call ban been made.
11a! hark! The loud cannon already replies!
The summons “ to rally” is hastening by—
Tin- music of drums on tho distant air dies, [fly!
And banners unfurled thro* each crowded street
On, on to the rescue! Your forefather’s fame,
Embalmed in each heart, is cinhluxoncd in story !
Remember! ye all have somo kindred or name
Enrolled thro* their deeds on the annals of glory!
Then on Isoulslanians! again rouse tho spirit
As certain to conquer as prompt to repel!
Away ! with the birthright yo proudly inherit,
To the rescue of Taylor—to Point Isabel.

ADAM AND THE CHE HUB OF PARADISE.
From he desman </ Krummacher.

there came lIn* Cherub of Paradise to the
lather of die human race, anil stood si
lently by his side, mid his countenance

“1* this sf type of die race dial shall
spring from tnc? mid shall ever the blood
ot brethren, shed by the hand iif brethren,

The Cherubanswered—“Thou sny’sl!”
“Ah! by wlml mime shall inen call
this terrible deed ?" said Adam.
Wilh a tear in his eye, the heavenly
visitant answered—“War!" Then shud
dered the fathei of mankind, as be sigh
ed and said—“Ah! why must then the
noble-hearted and the good full by the
band of the unjust f”
The Cherub was silent.
But Adam still more sorrowful mourn
ed, nnd said “Whut consolation now
remains fur me, in iny lamentation (or (he
blood-stained earth?'’
' The Cheruhnnswered and said—“Thy
glance towards Heaven!” He vanished.
Adam stood until the sun set ; and as
the stars shot up into the sky. lie stretch
ed his arms upwards toward Orion ami
the Wain, and exclaimed—“O ye glisten
ing watchers at the portals »l Heaven!
why walk ye on so silently ? If it is per*
milted for mortal to hear the sound of
your voice, Otellofibe silent Land above
and of Abel my loved one!”
Yet was it more silent than ever all a-
round him, and Adam cast himself upon

his soul a gentle whisper, “Lo! Abel' rby

Thence be went forth in trustful hope,

WRONG HABITS.
, h >• wrong habit to he continually fiod-
■Og fault with our ncigldmrs. It alienates
friendship, destroys good feelings, and
gives occasion for quartets, animosities,
agd litigation,.
ft is wrung habit, undone that is attend^*
ed with the most serious consequences,
for patents to lm always finding fault with
their children. *
_ R fs very wrong habit] nnd one which
give to the English Senate many eminent
Sc dignified members; but it is after all, a
transmissible talent, which riches and ed
ucation have uniformly developed and
strengthened. The many self-made men
who, from the most bumble beginnings,
have elevated themselves to the highest
rank, and are now in Congress, are char-
arterislic trails in the history of ourcoun*
trym-n, and show how superior nature it
to artificial embellishment, and what per
severance anc! indomitable energy will
finally rflc.t.
Look at this newspaper, said one Sen
ator recently to another; see how that
scamp abuses me!
Well, the freedom of the press must be
sustained. There is no ‘divine right’
which exempt senators from its scruti
ny.
Very true: but the ungrateful hound
of an editor should never have attacked
me. Why, sir, he came into our village
n ragged fellow, nnd I bought the cloth
and made him die first good suit of clothes
he e\ er wore.
The devil you did ! Why, then, you are
a tailor?
To lie sure I am.
Why, how came you to he a lawyer ?
Oil, that was one ol the contingencies
ol getting on in the world. I was once a
common soldier under Gen. Jackson du
ring the Indian wars, nnd lM*sidcs that
honor 1 hid fair to become a common drun
kard ; and when I got hack to ourvillage
I got into so many scrapes—whipped so
many fellows—that I was thrown into
jail for the Sheriff's fees.
How did you manage to get out of that
difficulty.
Why, my brother finally paid the costs
nnd invited me to study law with him.—
You made rapid progress no doubt ?
Not very rapid. The dilficulty was,
that 1 Imd never learned to reud ; so 1
ducated tnysell and studied law ul the
same titm—got admitted—went further
west—got into practice—got into the leg
islator!—got into Congress—and, cccc
siguum, here I am in the Senate.
That Senator is a sensible, well-inform
ed, intelligent citizen, fit for tiny station.
Sum Houston, Senator from Texas, is on-
oilier of those rough and remarkable gems
—like the rocky ami sterile surface of
the Alleganies, full of mineral riches be
neath. Sam was originally a carpenter
in Nashville—turned out the shaving from
his plum*, ami resolved to go ahead while
making grooves ami uiorliscs ami nailing
up posts and sashes, lie liecatuc gover
nor of Tennessee, fought as a common
soldier in the Indian wars, and secured
by his courage, and perseverance, the
lilwrty and iudc|M-mlcncc of Texes.
Then*, said Gen. Jackson, having a
map of Texas before him—there is Ala
nm! Now, il the Mexicans separate their
forces and come down this pass, and Sam
can catch them under the brow of that
range of hills, he’ll lick’em, and take San-
ly Anny. You’ll sec.
’ Just as the old General predirted, so
il lurncd out at San Jucinto. The En
glish would have made Gen. Houston a
duke for achieving such a victory. We
see the progress ol events—Gen. Houston
is in the Senate.
One dnrk, stormy evening, some years
ago, a little alter tea time, we were com
ing down Nassau street, and on turning
Fulton, came upon a tall athletic man
wrapped in a blue cloak.
Win* goes there ?
A Irtend! It was Sam Houston.
I am going by invitation l > a Hireling of

We did go and beard a most able and
interesting discourse, showing his famili
arity with the red men, and deprecating
the’course pursued-lo reform them, by
giviog ihem religion first, and tbeu edu
cation and industry. He was practical
and convincing; but they did not carry
out his propositions. .This is a class of

THE SPIRIT OF THE PEOPLE.
The government is “assuming (to use
Mr. Madisnu’s celebrated language)the

crisis.” The President antf his cabinet

A BENEVOLENT ACTION.
A Paris correspondent of the Courier
dcs Etats Unis relates an interesting an
ecdote of Mr. M , a rich but eccentric
individual iu Paris. He had retired from
husinesb with a yearly income of one
hundred and fifty thousand livres. He
was catcful to preserve his principal un
touched, hut was in the habit of spending
all the interest. His ordinary expenses
eie manage,! wilh method and econo
my—but the amount which he disposed
of in charities was quite large—and he
always kept oo band a considerable sum
to be expended in any emergencies which
might occur, and sometimes he found no
little embarrassment in getting rid of this
reserved fund.
Not long since he found, he had on hand
one thousand crowns, which he was anx
ious to dispose of. While be wa3 debat
ing with himself how he should spend it,
one of die chimneys ot his hotel took fire.
The ularm was given—the firemen were
first tailed—afterwards the chimney
sweeps to sweep the other chimneys: a-
mnng them was a little bright-looking Sa
voyard,who, ragged, and soiled as he was
with soot, gaily sung his song. Mr.
M regarded him with interest. The
song was nmusingand caused him to smile
—and his heart was warmed towards, the
little sweep.
My little friend," said Mr. M. , “I
think I must make you a New Year’s
present.”
“Manv thanks, my good Sir,” replied
the Savoyard, showing two noble tiers of
polished ivories, “I shall be pleased to
receive it.”
"You seem to he perfectly happy,”
continued Mr. M , you sing in excel-
nt spirits. You are of course contented
wilh your condition.
Yes, Sir, I am contented—hut—I
should he much belter contented il l could
have remained in my own country, with
tnv dear mother nnd sisters.”
“Anil what hinders you from return-
mg ?”
Oh," said tho little sweep, “it is very
easy to talk al out il—hut I cannot quit
the business of chimney-sweeping until I
e made a fortune.”
How! a fortune? how much is that ?”
A great deal! No less than two thou
sand francs, which I shall have to collect,
sous by sous, which will require at least
ten years. Y’es, ten years .roust pass be
fore I shall be able to see my mother a-
garn and my dear native mountains!”
said the boy, while a tear glistened in his
eye.
You shall go lo-morroic, if you like.”
saiil Mr. M
Are you joking with me sir?”
No—I tell you, you may leave Paris
ns soon ns you like. Your fortune is
made!”
AVhat! my two thousand francs!”
Yes and more—l will give you three
thousand. Go, find your master—and
bring him here.
The master was found, the whole mat
ter arranged, and the bright little Savoy
ard, weeping with joy, and clad in his
appropriate costume departed the next
day for his native mountains to embrace
his mother and carry happiness into her
humble collage.

THE USE AND ABUSE OF WEALTH.
Most of our readers have heard of John
Jacob Astor, of New York city, the Roths
child of America. Commencing wilh small
means, he has pushed his adventures
in (be fur trade, in real estate, and otli-»
er enterprises and speculations so earnestly,
so steaddy, and so successfully, that lie
has accumulated wealth which is lold only
by millions and tens of millions. It is sta
ted in the book of (he “Rich Men of New
York,” that those knowing his affairs best
place it al thirty miliums. Al a moderate
estimate, his income must be two millions
a year, or $168,000 a monih, which is a-
bout $41,500 a week, $5,760 a day, $240
an hour, and $4 00 per minute.. Sleep or
awake, active or idle, this income comes
pouring in with such d profusion, that room
can hardly be found lo store it.
And what is the benefit to John Jacob
Astor ? The sunny days of bis youth and
manhood are over; the elastic step, the
bright eye, the flush look, the clear con
ception, the energetic will are gone, leav
ing neither ability lo acquire, nor Ihe power
to enjoy, if ever he enjoyed. He is descri
bed as an old man—a very old man—de
crepit, bent-down, almost deaf and blind,
seldom leaving hit room, and when a* rare
intervals he bobbles into the street, suppor
ted by friendly - bands, that he may enjoy
-for an hour the sweet sun, whichsnine* for
all'as well as for him, common pity ia mo
ved by’ihe sight. Indeed, it has been sla
ted, whether truly er in exaggeration we
will not sny, that a poor man reduced lo
starvation was rushing by with ibe purpose
of terminating bis existence by plunging
into the river, when the .spectacle of this
aarae old millionaire changed bis purpose,
thinking he ought to be reconciled to his
lot, v hen he saw one whose condition was
so much worse than hi* own.—Congrtgo-
