“MUCH VET REMAINS CSrSING.”
From the N. V. Evening Mirror. •
TO DR. KIIG, AT ATHESS.
Stand fast, lone Sentinel of God,
On proud Athena’s noblest hill!
Hark! comes there not from every sod.
By Glory’s feet for ages trod—
A voice to make the Christian thrill?
“Hold on, thy station keep—
Let pore Religion's hanrer wave,
On Suniom’s sea-dividing steep,
And where the F.gean breezes sweep
O'er every hallowed grave!”
O conhl the men who lived and died
For Greece, in all their lofty pride,
The great, the brave, the deified,
Come hack, for once, an hour;
Anil crowd in one awakening word,
All they have thought, or felt, or heard,
Os wisdom and of power—
Then would their voice conjure thee loud,
Thou man ol'God to stand.
Untired, unwavering, unbowed,
Amidst the dark, degraded, proud,
But ever lovely land.
Bat mightier than the rising dead,
Than all which sages ever taught,
Or poets sumr, or heroes wrought,
Must he the Power, whose thrilling tread
Shall nerve the soil o( Greece;
The Holy Spirit from above,
.Shall spread his wingsoftrulh and love,
And Freedom shall increase,
Nobler than after Allien’s ever knew,
And brilliant as the morning dew,
With holiness itfid peace!
Oh, is there not some yearning mind
In thy own native land,
Fired, raptured, strengthened, and refined,
Bv Grecian works, of all mankind
Most beautiful and grand.
Jly those deep thoughts and glowing words
Which holy prophets blent
In that dear language which the birds
Their richest carols lent,
Some gifted mind—that will not rest
Nor smother in its heaving breast
The heaven-enkindled flame;
Till the free spirit of ntir sires,
.Shall re-illnmine with holier fires,
The land, whence world-enchanting lyres,
And laws, and Freedom came?
Stand .last, lone sentinel of Truth,
Star oi'the blue F.gean deep!
Be not afraid, hut firmly keep
Thy station as in youth! <
What though as yet our feeble age
Can yield no prophet, bard, or sage
A champion for the time—
The day shall come when thou shalt see
A chosen hand along with tliec—
And Greece, evangelized and free,
Shine glarious and sublime!
When Superstition’s horrid lair,
That sullen hag with serpent hair
Shall never more pollute the air
Os that resplendent clime!
Hold on! thy station keep,
Let pure Religion’s banner wave
On Sunium’s sea-dividing steep,
And where the F.gean surges sweep
By every hallowed grave !
“ Huy some Matches !"—“Will you l>uy
some matches?” said the voice of a boy,
as we were seated ia our sanctum in a
mood contemplative, about eight o’clock
a few nights ago.
“No,” vie answered, in a tone that
might not have been altogether courteous
or good-natured, because the same ques
tion had often been asked us before, twen
ty times a day. This answer we gave
without looking at the child, or a second
thought to the matter.
“ Please, sir, buy some matches,” said
the youth ; “I’ll give j’ou five boxes for a
bit.”
“I have no use for them,” we remarked.
“Vet you will have use for them by-and
by, sir, and you don’t know bow much
good even a picayune would do my poor
mother and little sisters at home, just now.
I hav’nt sold a box of matches to-day.—
Please, sir, will you give me a dime for
six boxes ?”
The tones of the child’s voice were so
plaintive, his manner of speaking and his
pale haggard countenance bore such evi
dent marks of truthfulness and honesty,
and his bearing was so manly, that wc
could not, if we had tried, do otherwise
than listen to his tale.
“How many sisters have you?” we
asked.
“Three, sir.”
“Are they cither of them able to assist
your mother ?”
“Oh bless you, no, sir! Mary is but
seven years old, Pauline only four, and
liulc Kale can barely toddle across the
door. Mary, though, takes care of Kate
some of the time, and that saves poor mo
ther some trouble.”
“And what,” we asked, “docs your
mother do for your support ?”
“She binds shoes, sir. Ma sends me to
the shop with them every morning, and
the boss is cross sometimes, and says
things that make me mad. And then 1
go home and tell mother, and she says I
shouldn’t get angry, for it is perhaps her
fault that lie is ill-tempered, but I don’t
think so, sir, do you ? Poor mother never
in the world said or did anything that
wasn’t right and proper.”
We bought of the boy matches enough
to last us for a year, and stopped his > :,;ce
of gratitude by promising soon to call at
the home of his mother, and see to the
welfare of Mary, Pauline, and “ little”
Kate.
Poor match boy!—would that every
heart was as pure as thine ! The storm
of adversity rnay rage around thee, its
chilling breath may penetrate through the
thin covering poverty has left you, but it
can never lake from thee that invaluable
honesty a good mother has instilled into
thy youthful heart. Cheer up, then boy!
Be patient, be virtuous, frank, manly and
honest, as now, and a time will come,
though it may be afar off, when you need
not ask “ Buy some matches, sir !”— N.

Anti-Slave party in a Slatx State. —
The Liberty Party have an Organization
in Virginia, and at the late election are
said to have polled a considerable vote in
a few counties.
A good custom. —We see it stated
that in Munich, Germany, all boys found
|in the street asking alms, are taken to an
1 asylum established for that purpose. As
soon as they enter the door, and before
! having been cleaned, ortheir dirty clothes
removed, a portrait of each is taken, rep
resenting him in the same form as when
found begging. When the portrait is fin
ished, he is demised, and presented with
anew and neat suit of clothes, After
going through a regular course of educa
tion, appointed by the directors of the a
sylum, they are put to learn a trade, at
which they work until they have earned
[enough to’liquidate all their expenses
| from the first day they entered the institu
tion. When this is completed, they are
i dismissed from the Institution to gain their
livelihood. At the same time, the por
trait taken when they first entered is pre
| sented to them, which they swear they
: will preserve as long as they live, in or
j tier that they may remember the abject
Icondition from which they have been re
j deemed, and the obligations which they
are under to the institution for having sa
lved them from misery and giving them
the means of feeding themselves for the
future.
A fair Let fairly won. —Said Phil to!
Richard, the other day—“ Did you ever
hear how rough-hided I am ?”
“ I never did,” replied Dick—tougher
than common folkses?”
“ I reckon ’tis, a few—why, I’ll bet
you drinks, Dick, that you may take aj
cow-hide and lay it upon my bare skin as)
long as you like, and 1 won’t even flinch.”
“Done—l’ll take that bet. If I don’t
make you squirm like a half skinned eel,
the first cut, I’m sadly mistaken.”
“You take the bet, then.”
“ I do."
“ Well, wait till I go up stairs and bring;
down tnv 6c</r-skin, and”—
“O ho! youj bear skin? No, no—lj
meant”—
“I dont case what yeu meant —it’s a fair;
bet fairly won. My bare skin is my bear
skin, and it aint nothing else.”
“I’ll give in,” said Richard, looking‘
foolish and flabbergasted—“ let’s adjourn
to the Pewter Mug, and say no more a
bo::t it.”
n i
Anecdote.—The decision of a Dutch
Judge, in someone of the villages along
the Hudson, in a caso before him, which
the right of opinion was brought in ques
lion, it was argued for the party whose 1
right was questioned, that in this country
every man had a right to express freely
his opinions. To this the judge, who it
seemed was determined to give it against
the man, replied with great complacency,
“O yah ! —every man had a right by that
law, in dis free Republic to link for him
self, provided he links with the Court.”
Love.—Love is at once the best temp
tation for a hermit, and the best cure for a
misanthrope.
VaNity.—Vanity is love’s sister, and
often more powerful than his master.
