The Living Temple.
Not ir. the world of light alone,
M here God has built liis blazing throne,
Nor yet alone in earth below,
\\ ith belted seas that come and go,
And endless isles of sunlit green,
Is all thy Maker’s glorv seen;
Look in upon thy wondrous frame—
Eternal wisdom still the same!
The smooth, soft air, with pulse like waves,
Flows murm'ring through its hidden caves,
hose streams of brightening purple rush
Fired with a new and livelier blush,
^ nile all their burden of decay
The ebbing current steals away,
And red w ith Nature’s flame they start
From the warm fountains of the heart.
But warmed with that unchanging flame
Its living marbles jointed Etrong,
ith glistening band and silvery thong,
And linked to reason’s guiding reins
By myriad rings in trembling chains,
Each graven with the threaded zone
Which claims it as the master’s own.
See how yon beam of seeming white
Is braided out of seven-hued light,
Yet in those lucid globes no ray
By any chance shall break astray.
Ilark how the rolling surge of sound
Arches the spirals circling round,
Wita the hushed spirit through thine ear
With music it is Heaven to hear.
Then mark the cloven sphere that bolds
All thought in its mysterious folds.
That feels sensation’s faintest thrill
And flashes forth the sovereign will;
Think on tho stormy world that dwells
Locked in its dim and clustering ceils 1
The lightning gleams of power it sheds
Along its hollow glassy threads!
Oh Father 1 grant thy love divine
To make these mystic temples shine!
When wasting age and wearying strife
Have sapped the leaning walls of life,
When darkness gathers over all,
And tho last tottering pillars fall,
Take the poor dust thy mercy warms,
And mould it into heavenly forms 1

sT The public mind is very thoroughly
rased upon these Into acta of English impu

ta Administration. Not only is the press of

ta expressions of popular feeling, that show
idnp-seated determination to be satisfied with

Ostrich Hunting.
With raucheux’s reyolvep, a couple of soutli-

The recent annoyance consequent upon the
suspension of specie payments by the banks,
brings to mind an incident which occurred
something like twenty years ago in a Western
city. The story may have been published,
but we do not remember having seen it in
print; at all events, we will tell it and run
the risk :
At the time we speak, a gentleman having
in his possession ten or twelve hundred dollars
on a certain banking institution away out
West, went up to the counter one fine morn
ing, and addressed the teller in the following
language:
“ Good morning, sir. Beautiful weather !
Ahem! I have something over a thousand dol
lars’ worth of your money in my pocket. Do
you redeem ?”
The teller says “goodmornin,” smiles bland
ly and answers: “ We redeem, sir, but we do
not pay specie.”
“Do not pay specie, hey ? Suspended, I sup
pose ?”
“Suspended.”
“What do you redeem with then ?” was the
next question.
“With bills on the other banks,” replied the
clerk most pleasantly.
11 And those, I presume, are also non-specie
paying banks ?"
“Very probably they arc, sir,” bowing very
politely.
“Well, then, what kind of bills can you giv
me ?”
“Most any kind sir. Give you Red Cat,
“Can’t staud it!”
“Well, then how’s Grey Cat ?” •
“Wouldn’t give a straw for a barrel of it
“What do you say to Black Cat ?”
“ ’Taint worth a cuss!”
“ Well, I’ll try and accommodate you with
White Cat."
“ It would’nt be any accommodation at all
I don’t want your infernal Wild Cat Money—
neither Red Cat, Grey Cat, Black Cat, White
Cat, or Tom Cat. I wonld’nt use it to litter a
horse with. Have’nt you got some money on
Eastern banks ?”
No, sir”—softly and very polite—“East
era banks are principally specie-paying insti
tutions.”
‘If not Eastern, then, have you bills on any
other banks that do pay specie ?"
No, sir, bowing most courteously.
Well, then,” drawing his package from his
pocket with a desperate expression of coun
tenance, “ Can you give me tolerably cxcuted
counterfeit bills on any bank that does pay
specie /”
“No, sir!” very loud and looks as if he
felt himself insulted.—Evening News Letter.
Irish Drollery.
An amusing story of Daines Barrington, Re
corder of Bristol, is related by one of the Brit
ish press. Having to appear for the plaintiff in
Clonmel, he “let,” into the defendant in no
ensured terms. The individual inveighed
against not being present, only heard of the
invectives. After Barrington, however, had
got back so far as Dublin, the Tipperary man
lost no time in paying his compliments to
the counsel, ile rode all day and night and
covered with sleet, arrived before Barrington’s
residence,in Uarcourt street, Dublin. Tlirow-
ing the bridle of his smoking horse over the
railing of his area, he announced his arrival by
a thundering knock at the door, which nearly
shook the street. Barrington’s valet answer
ed the summons, and opening the 6treetdoor,
behold the apparition of a rough coated Tip
perary fire-eater, with a large stick under his
arm, and the sleet sticking to his busby whis
kers.
“Is your master up,” demanded the visitor,
in a voice that gave some intimation of the ob
ject of his journey.
“No,” answered the man.
“Then give him my compliments, and say
Mr. Foley, (he’ll know the name,) will be glad
to see him.”
The valet went up stairs and told his mas
ter. who was in bed, the purport of this visit.
“Then don’t let Mr. Foley in for your life,”
said Barrington, “for il’s not a hare and a
brace of ducks he lias come to present me
with.”
The man was leaving the bedroom, when a
rough wet coat pushed by him, while a thick
voice said, “your leave;’’ at the same moment
Mr. Foley entered the bedroom.
“Yon know my business," said he t
Barrington. “I have made a journey to teach
youmauners, and it is not my purpose to return

A Reckless Experimenter
A young fellow named Sellers took a bal
loon ride at Dayton, Ohio, on Saturday. In
stead of a silk balloon, properly rigged and
arranged for the trip, he had provided a huge
muslin concern, coated with glue and “white
washed ” with yellow ochre, in size and shape
very much resembling the canvas under which
the small showmen on the outskirts of the cir
cus exhibit fat women and big snakes. It was
to be set afloat by building a fire under it and
nfiating it with ratified air. Sellers is twenty
five years old, and weighs one hundred and
fifty pounds; and in this frail bark lie started
for the upper regions, after two ineffectual at
tempts on account of the high wind. While
the process of inflation was in progress the
balloon took fire, just above tho neck, and
quite a large bole was burnt before the flames
could be extinguished. The repairs were
speedily made by getting the edges into a roll
and tying a cord around it.
Another opening was made afterward, and
was closed in the same way. Finally the aeri
al ship was made ready for the voyage, and
tho aeronaut stepped into the basket, a com
mon clothes basket, about three feet long and
two feet wide, secured to the cotton-ship by
ropes tied to each handle, another around the
bottom. These four cords were the only at
tachments of the basket to the balloon. Eight
men who held the rope now let go and up ho
went, as he says, in the highly inflated account
of his trip and its impressions, fully a mile
high. After being at this height for a brief
period, the rent in the balloon, allowing the
rarified air to escape rapidly, he began his per
ilous descent, which was nearly ns rapid as lie
had traveled upward. At one time he was in
danger of a cold bath in the swollen Miami,
but a current of wind struck him, and he came
down safely in a marsh about a mile from the
starting poinL
A Talc of Terror,
The following rather marvellous story is
told by one of tho Vienna Journals:—As a
farmer of Orsinovi, near that city, was a few
nights ago returning home from market,he stop
ped at a roadside public house, and imprudent
ly showed the innkeeper a large sum which he
had received. In the night the innkeeper,arm
ed with a poignard,stole into the farmer’s cham
ber, and prepared to stab him; but the farmer,
who, from the man’s manner, at supper, con
ceived suspicions of foul play, had thrown him
self, fully dressed, on the bed, without going
to sleep, and being a powerful man, he wrested
the poignard from the other, and using it a-
gainst him, laid him dead at his feet. A few
moments nfter, he heard stones thrown at the
window, and a voice, which he recognized as
that oftho innkeeper's son, said:“I’lie grave is
ready!” This proved to him that the father and
son had planned his murder, and to avoid de
tection, had intended burying the dead body at
once. He thereupon wrapped tho dead body
in a sheet, and let it down from a window; he
then ran to the gendarmerie and stated what
had occurred. Three gendarmerie immediate
ly accompanied him to the house, and found
the young man busily engaged iu shoveling
earth into the grave. “What are you bury-
jng ?” said they. “Only a horse,which has just
died!” “You arc mistaken,” answered one of
them, jumping into the grave and raising the
