The dark winged angel, death, did come, And to the spirit land, He bore the fairest of our group, The loveliest of our baud. Just ns her ways so winning sweet, Around ou* hearts did twine; Death claimed our little rose-bud, And we were left to pine. Like a pure white w.vxen snow-drop, In loveliness she lay; Oh ! it was sad, to place that form In the cold dark earth away. And vet, our Ruth is happy now; How sweetly doth she rest, * Folded within the Saviour's arm. Close to his loving breast. The little flower, too pure for earth, In heaven unfolds its charms. The angel mother has met her babe, And clasped it in her arms. . Oh. Father! full of every grace, Os mercy, truth and love; Oh! gran , that we may meet our Ruth, In her bright home above. Willow Dell, Ga. ilthirnLnnjtuu CHARACTERISTIC SAYINGS OF AMERICANS. [Columbus (Ohio) Journal ] Someone wuh a good memory for surh tltinoK, might make a very readable article from the bent remembered arid must charac teristic savinoe of Americans. Here are a few which may serve as specimens of what might be done with time and opportunity. Samuel Adams, known for many things, Beid -m has bis name associated with the phrase first applied by him to England— ‘‘Nation ot shopkeepers. ” It was John Wesley, and not Charles Sumner, who first spoke of slavery (the slave trade) as “the sum of all villames.” Franklin has said many things that have passed into maxims, but nothing is better known and remembered than: “lie has paid dear, very dear, for hie whistle. Washington made but few epigrammatic speeches. Mere is one • “To be prepared for war is the most effectual means of pre serving peace.” Did you ever hear of old John Dickinson ? Well, he wrote <d Americans, in 17G8 4 By uniting we stand, i»v dividing we fait.” Patrick Henry, as every schoolboy km ws gave us; “Give me liberty, or give me death.” and, “If this be treason, make the most of it ” Thomas Paine had many quotable epi grammatic sentences : ‘ li .se like a rocket, te l like a s.ick "‘Tunes that try men’s '■ouls ‘ One step fr m sublime to ridicu lous ” etc. J‘if rsori’s writings are so besprinkled that it is difficult to select. In despair we jump at “Few die and ..one resign,” cer tainly as aj plic ib’e to office-holders now as in J-If-rs m’s time. J istiih Quincy. Jr., said, “Wheresoever, whensoever, or howsoever we shall be call ed on to make our ex.t, we shall be free men.” Henry L>*e gave Washigton his immortal title of “F rst in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen,” Charles Ootesworth Pinckney declared in faV'.r of mil ions for defence, but not one cent in favor of tribute.” “Peaceably if we can, forciblv if we must,” is from Josiah Quincy, 1811. J .hn Adams did not say, ‘Live or die. -urvivc nr parish, I’m for the constitution.” but Daniel Websier did say it fur him. T e revolutionary age alone would give us one ariide, had we time to gather the pearls. Coming down we pass greater, but not m -re famous men, for D tvid Crockett, the il!ustri us author of “Be sure you are right, and then go ahead ” Andrew Jachson gave us “the Union—it must be preserved.” Benton almost lost his original identity in “Oi l Bullion,” from his “hard money” doctrines. G vernor Throop, of New Y'ork. was call ed “Small Light Throop” for years, from a phrase in n Thanksgiving proclamation. Scott’s ‘ hasiy plate of soup” lasted his life time. Taylor’s battle order. “A little more grape. Captain Bragg,” will be quoted alter he is forgotten by “all the world and the rest of mankind.” Seward is known for the “irrepressible Conflict,” wherever the Euglich language is spoken. Marcey’s patched breeches are as well remembered as his state papers. Rufus Choate gave us “glittering gener' alities.” Our own Bill Allen, the ‘Chinese Gong,” is responsible for “54-40, or fight.” Tom Corwin’s “We come with bloody hands to hospitable graves,” gave him more unenviable criticism than any other saying of his life. Col Win, S. Rockwell was known in the late war as “the man who swallowed the brass drum.” A pri-oner in the Detroit court, when asked where he lived, replied: “Live? Live? I live in the region of eternal bliss. I own a farm of a thousand acres there. I plow roy land with angels, and raise cab* bages, cabbages, cabbages, beets, beets. You’re are a cabbage ; you’re a beet; you’re an angel; you’re a horse ; you’re an ass, an ass ! W hoop l” ‘ls your father living?’ •I’m my awn father —I am the father of all nations.’ II ive v >«i gO’ ;mv m rher ?* ‘Yes, voting m-Mi ; 1 .ts f ’“in Ya ; ok as Plough \ 'U need and a no t er; y u va .t pursing; v i ai ’ heal'hy Mv '.noth r shaM In* your m rher a l of ’em.

This showed tbc versatility of hie genius. the SEA OF GALILEE.* W ho has not longed to staitd beside it? About no place iu Palestine do sweeter memories gather. Yet if we may Mark l wain,—who, however, is »>o irrever* ent in his “Innocents Abroad” touching many sacred associations that his testimony is not wholly satisfactory,—this hallowed sea should not he looked upon rn the glare of day t» fully realize all anticipation. For «*nce the humorist feels tenderly sober amid holy scenes, and thus writes: Nig >t is the time to see Galilee Gen essaret. with th(* giirtoring reflections of the flecking its surface, al me regret that I ever saw the rude glare of the day upon it. Its history and its associations are its chiefest charm in mv eyes, und the spells they weave are feeble in the searching light of the sun. Tnen we scarcely fetl the fetters. Our thoughts wander constantly to the practical concerns of life, a .and refuse to dwell upon things that seem vague and unreal. But when the day is done, even the most unimpressibie must yield to the dreamy influences of this tranquil starlight. The old tradition* of the place steal upon his m -inory and haunt his reveries, and then his fancy clothes all sights and sounds w th the supernatural. In the lap[#ng of the waves upon the beach he hears the dip of ghostly oars ; in the ecret noises of the night he hears spirit oices ; in the soft sweep of the breez'% tin rush of invisible wings. Phantom ships are on the ,»ea, the dead of twenty centuries come forth from their tombs, and, in the dirges of the nLh-t wind, the songs of old, forgotten ages find utterance again. In the «tarlight, Galilee has no bounda Ties hut the tr al compass of the heavens, and is a theater meet for the birth of a re ligion able to save the world: and meet for the stately figure appointed to stand upon its stage and proclaim its high decrees. But, in the scnlight, one says: Is it for the deeds which were done and for the words which were spoken in this little acre of rocks ani sand eighteen centuries gone, that the tells are ringing to day in the re mote islands of the sea, and far and wide over continents that clasp tjje circumference of the huge globe? One’can comprehend it only ween night has hidden all incongru ities and created a theater proper for so great a drama. Intellhctual Pk — The most marked failure in the intellectual world at present, is the freedom of thought and expression. For ages the mind has been trammeled by the formulas of school-men and the bigotry of the church. Men were forbidden to use their reasons at all, or if permitted they must start from certain eon es aid reason by certain rules. T e results were, to debase the man by destroy m g within him the use of his higher facul ties. I fie Church has had much to do in thus dwarfing ihe intellect She has demand ed ttie bl.nd accepiance of her dogmas, and t underei her anathemas, threatening most fearful punishments against those who dared think for themselves. F>r eenturie she had the power to inflict temporal pu - ishment, and thus controlled the world of mi and. Now she can but promise a future retr.bution, and this by many is little regarded. There are very many good persons yet. who have die fear of the church so strongly Before f heir eyes, that they dare not think. These peculiar sectarian dogmas are repul sive, and rot accepted by reason, yet reason must he hHd in accepted as a saving Jaith. RiJjHKs is passing away, an' 1 , mind is regairm^ that freedom that it hai been so long and so unjustly deprived if. Every man owes it to himself to believe nothing tint is not approved by his rea-on, or by fiis religious sense which is above reason. Ibis skepticism and >es not lead to infidelity, is many w>ud h.ve us believe, but is the proper foundation for our mental and spiritual life. Salvation in thi> world or tlm wild to come doe* not depend up >n baptism. >r upon foreknowledge and foreor dination, or vicarious atonement, or indeed upon anytenet sostronuouwiv insisted upon by churchmen. A I Hi at is essential is Love and Charity, and without these there is no religion, — Ihe Eclectic. The Siratogiao gers off the following: “Ir is one of the most amusing sights in the world to watch a young md inexperienced flv attempt to peregrinate slantindicularlv across the head of our short-haired young men. We mean one of thone heads that has been scissored and >wn, rasped, tiled, and finished off with sand-paper and emery, so that t:>e minutest phrenological ‘bump’ stands out in as bold relief as a bill of po tatoes. He (the fly) travels so loosely, and mixes his feet up very much like a hashful bachelor learning to skate. No use trying to enjoy a sermon with one of those heads on an exact line between you and the preacher, and an unfortuna efly on it essay* ing desperately to get across from the northwest to the southeast corner to see a friend.# When Not to Eat —Never eat when very much fatigued. Wait until rested. Never eat just before you expect to en gage in any severe mental or physical ex ercise. Never eat while in a passion, or while under any great mental excitement, wheth er of a depressing or elevating character. Never eat just before taking a bath of any kind. Never eat just before retireing for the night. Never ent between regular meals.—Her ald of Health. The Columbia Spectator don't “puff” now nke ir did Listen: “A fiig-bearted farmer send- us about three rhirnb'e'Tul of rancid cider with tho request that we so uld notice it as a fir-t cia-s article m eider vinegar.

The Evangelical alliance will not be po tpm.ed on account of the war, but the European deiegttcH, whom it detains, will end the papers they have prepared to be road.
