-trlrrtrii [From the “Herald of the Future Age. ”] JERUSALEM. Ancient of Cities! admir’d of the nations! Rest of Jehovah! his chosen delight; Well may we mourn thee with sad la mentations, Fallen thy greatness and faded thy light; And the rainbow of promise that gleamed on thy brow Is hid by the cloud that hangs over thee now ! Land of tho Prophet! whose mystic reveal ings Dimly enlighten all tribes but thine own ! Thine are tho records of wonderful deal ings, Lost or unmark’d by thy children alone; And strangers and aliens, whilst they are forlorn, ‘ Rejoice in the birthright to which they were born! Land of the Minstrel! so sadly foreboding Woe after woe on thy children and thee ; Link’d with tho joy, and its sweetness cor roding, Justus the blight-worm is linked to the tree. Vet the post e’en now, when he touches his lyre, Must wake at thine altar the spark of his fire. I -r 1 of the Martyr! whose seed, sown in weakness, is whitening the earth with a harvest of grace— Thine was the worship all gorgeous with splendour, Trumpets, and cymbals, and anthems of praise : ’Twas in thy wide cradle Messiah was lain. And in thee, for the sins of the people was slain. Where is the outenst that shared in thy glory ? Where is the lost one so favored of yc.ro 1 Driven from thy temple, its stones lie un builded, Danish thy vineyards, they blossom no more! And the soil that enamell’d with verdure thy lawns, Now, lie is an exile, bears briars and ; thorns. Vainly the infidel plants on thy border Corn for his garner or grapes for his enp; Dew from tho Lord is withheld that must water, Blights are around thee, that wither it up : And the land in her Sabbath is waiting the day W hen the dew shall retorn and the des- ! ert look gay. ’Twas not for him thon wtist placed in the sunlight. Gilding thy temples, and paintiug thy flowers, Lebanon’s cedars have languish’d before him, Carmel and Sharon look sore in their bow ers ; And sower and reaper but labor in vain, And wealth may not purchase that splen , dour again, Sadly the wauderer mourns thee, in nbsence; Waking or sleeping, his home is in thee ; Feeds on the water and bread of affliction, A proverb, reproach, and a by-word is he ! Poor child! and the stranger that looks on thee now Reads the price of his sin in the brand on thy brow. Weary of wand’ring, and worn with oppres sion, , Own’d of no country, and favour’d by few! Who shows thee kindness to lighten thine exile 1 Or yields to thy sorrow’ the sympathy due ? In the hour of affliction mankind is thy foe, And no brother has thou but the brother in woe! Who could but weep to behold thee de graded ? Beauteous for station, the joy of the earth. If 1 forget thee in my exaltation, Yea, if 1 hold thee not chief in my mirth, Then may my right hand her cunning forget. And my tougue in the silence of sorrow be set! Lift up thine eyes to this burthen’d horizon! ( hiid of the promises what dost thou see ? Bright golden streaks, growing wider and brighter, Break through tlio darkness and gleam upon thee ! And the shaking of nations in nature’s last groan, Is paving the way of thy King to his throne! He comos! O Jerusalem! wake from thy slumbers, And shake oft* the dust that encumbers thy strength ! The dust of defilement long years have roll’d on thee; The day of redemption dawns on thee at length : Tliy temple shall rise from its ruins more bright, And the nations around thee shall walk in thy light. The Triumph of good Humor. — Waiting while a stuttering man gets through the word “ p-p-p-p-pre-p p-p-poa-s-a-a-s-t-t-t-t-t-terous.” A LANDLORD GRATIFIED. < A Yankee—but whether he was a trader or not, I can’t say —stop- ped ata tavern ‘away up north,’ in the State of New York, called for ‘ fixins,’ and after swallowing a pretty darned considerable bill, re tired. Meanwhile the landlord and interlopers, were busily engaged in conversation. By and b}’, Yan kees and Vankee tricks were dis cussed. The landlord informed his bar room company that there was a live Yankee in the house, and it ’t were possible, he would have a trick or two out ofhim before he left, while the aforesaid ‘ hangers on ’ or 4 lingerers ’ were to be witnesses. — After a ‘ pleasant smile ’ all around, at the landlord’s expense, ihey miz zled. Next morning, landlord and com pany were ready to snap at Mr. Yankee as soon as lie made his ap pearance. Breakfast being over, in walks Jonathan, with an air pecu liar to folks * down east,’ paid his bill, and was about to depart, when the landlord accosted him with : “You,it’s plain to be seen that you’re a Yankee. Can, or will you oblige us with a trick or two for lean assure you we are ready to be tricked if you can do it.” “ Wal, dunno ’bout that. Ilev done a hew in my time ; but durum as I kin dew anythin’ smart this morn in.” “Oh do. Lei’s have a trick,” ex claimed the eager crowd. “ Wall, seen’ iis yeou, I’ll dew it jest to please you. But 1 swowyou musn’t git mad. * “Oh, no, not at all,” says land lord.” “ I’ll go his security,” chimed in old Rum nose. “ I reckon,”says Jonathan, “you sell a prodigeous sight of licker in these parts, and good at that. Yeou have a pipe of w ine in the seller, eh.” “Oh yes, rale stuff too, I tell you.” “Wall,” says Jonathan, “come alone: all yeou that want to behold the miricle performed ; ” and down they went in the cellar. The said pipe was pointed out. “ Neow,” says the Yankee, “ gentlemen, yew see that pipe of w ine, dew yew ? ” A nod of assent went the rounds of the crowd. “ Wall, now I kin take brandy out of one end, and gin out of tolh er.” “ Do it, and you can take my head for a foot ball,’* exclaimed the land lord. Jonathan coolly drew from his pocket a small gimblet and bored a small hole in one end of the pipe, which hole the landlord was reques ted to cover with his thumb. He did so, and soon a hole was bored in 4 tother end.’ Jonathan kept a sober phiz during the operation, and requested the landlord to stop up tother, while he w r ent after some thin tew put the darned stuff in.— The landlord complied with his re quest, and stretched across the pipe, resembled a man of war’s man a bout to receive a dozen with the cat. Jonathan meanwhile decamp ed, he did. The landlord’s hack be gan to ache, and he began to think the Y'ankee was a long time getting vials to put the licker in. Soon the vials of his wrath began to bile over, and words too deep for human ears were struggling for utterance, and he, holding on, endeavored to keep the wine from leaking out. — Soon the hoax began to leak from the heads of the ‘ outsiders.’ Bv and by one gave a laugh, and guess ed the landlord was done a leelle the brownest of anything he had ever seen ; and didn’t the walls of the old cellar ring again with bursts of laughter? Well they did. The landlord raved, and almost swore—he was a deacon in the church, and at last he broke forth with, “Dog my eternal cats, if I haint been tricked by that confound ed Yankee.” lie tried to get someone of the crosvd td supply his place, but the old * Rumnose ’ never let a good opportunity slip, he thought it vyou and be well, inasmuch as the landlord had allowed himself to be tricked by Mr. Yankee- Doodle, that he, (the landlord) should treat all hands, which landlord did, and was re leased from his tiresome position af ter losing his patience and some of his wine. WE ARE COWARDS IN THE DARK. A medical friend of ours, who some years since visited Paris, un der circumstances most favorable to an entree to a most interesting cir cle —that of the survivors and ci devant supporters of the “Lmpire —tells a capital story as he heard it related by the celebrated General Excelmans, one off Napoleon’s pal- Indians. Jt was at a dinner party composed of some of the survivors of Waterloo, a few of their young er relatives and the section of an ex-king, on a visit from his home in America, and to whom our friend owed his introduction to the circle. Some question arose about brave ry, when the younger members of ihe company were electrified to hear the venerable and heroic Excel mans gravely and seriously declare that men were oil cowards in the dark! The General smiled at their expres sion of dissent, remarked that it was “ very like youth,” and pro ceeded to tell the follow!wz anec dote in support of his strange dec laration : There was a young hot head in the Emperor’s service, who, burn mg for action, and his duties for the C 1 time affording no opportunity, at last res lved to fight a duel, and choosing to construe some remark or other of an old superior officer into an insult, challenged him. The 7 O old soldier, waiving all considera tions of rank, agreed to meet the 3*o ung man, but on the following unusual terms : The time should be night—the place a room, in oppo site corners of which they were to stand. The seconds having placed their men, were to withdraw out side the door, taking the candles with them. The words should be given from without, when he who had the first fire should discharge his weapon, and the seconds, bear ing the light, should immediately rush in. These strange conditions were ac cepted, the time arrived, and the seconds placed the parties as agreed u pon wdthd ra wing imm ed iat el y, and leaving the room in the dark. The word was given, the fire was heard, and there stood the eldest of the two, bolt upright in the corner, his adversary’s ball having entered the wall so close to his head that the escape seemed little, less than miraculous. It was now the old soldier’s turn to fire. They were again left in the dark, the w’ord was again given from the outside, and instantaneously with the discharge, the seconds rushed in, and found he challengei prostrate on the floor — not having re covered himself from the trick to avoid the ball, which on examination, it was found must have killed him. The young man w r as covered with confusion, and the seconds were overwhelming him with ex pressions of their scorn, when the veteran stopped them. “ Not so fast my jmung friend-s,” said he, ‘‘you will grow wiser.— Where do you suppose I w*as at the first fire? On my hands and knees in the corner; but ma foil I was up quicker than he! Par Dicu ! Messieurs , we arc all cowards in the dark. It was afterwards whispered to our friend that the story was an ac tual fact, and that the elder of the parties was no other than the brave warrior Excelmans him self. Woman's Love. —Oh how cruel to value it as a piece of common mer chandise. It is the only thing upon this rounded earth that suffers no purchaser but itself. Love is the equivalent of love—the invaluable jewel that must eiiher bo freely giv en or forever unenjoyed, be buried. , (Schiller.
