Hi 0 t t V $ THIS WORLD IS \OT ALL CIIEERLE9*. The Work! is not cheerless, Though some times dark and drear, There's a calm for every tempest. A smile for every tear ; There's a ray of golden sunshine, To make each desert bright, A glittering star to gladden. The deepest, darkest night. This world is not all cheerless— The heart most lone and sad, Has some times pleasant memories, To cheer and make it glad ; For love is ever twining, It's roses o’er our way, And friendship’s light is shining, With pure, unchanging ray. This world is not all cheerless, Though hope may pass away, And the things we cherish dearest, ’Neath time's cold hand decay ; For every grief that wrings the heart, And every tie that’s riven, But brings our footsteps nearer To happiness and heaven. This world is not all cheerless, Then as we journey on, Let every heart be breathing A grateful, gladsome song, Lor the rich and countless blessings, Around our pathway shed— For the hope of in heaven. When life’s shore dream has lied. T II E RIVER. BY A1KI). {One of the ‘•Brilliants” of the Boston Transcript.) Infant of the weeping hills, Xarsing of the springs and rills, Growing river, flowing ever, Wiinpling, dimpling, staying never, Lisping, gurgling, ever going, Sipping, slipping, ever flowing, Toiling round the polished stone, Kiss the ledge and journey on, Here’s a creek where bubbles come, Whirling make your ball of foam ; There’s a nook so deep and cool, Sleep into a glassy pool, Breaking, gushing, downward racking, Narrowing green, against the bank, •Wuere the alders grow in rank— Thence recoiling, Outward boiling, Fret, in rough shiugly shadows wide, Your difficult way to yonder side, Thence away, aye away, Bickering down the sunny day, In the sea, in yonder West, L->se yourself and be at rest. Kansas. W c are indebted to the Hon. W F DeSaus sure, Chairman ts the first Kansas committee, ibr the following letter from a friend in Kansas. It renders it extremely important that our second committee should make a strong effort to aid in the important work of settling Kan sas with Southern hands and hearts. Kansas, June 18th 1850. Hon. IF. E. DcSaussure. Dear Sir: I received your letter with the draft annexed for seventy-seven dollars eighty ceuts, payable to the order of David G Fleming, of which he shall be informed forth with; he has received the drafts first scut. The South Carolina boys at Atchison are well pleased and will nearly all of them see the thin” through, many of them will settle for life in the country. The Border Ruffians willfur uish them, without cost, meat and bread, and, assist to furnish them with the means of com mencing farming. They will give them cows and calves, and sows and pigs, and lend them horses, mules and oxen, indeed do all that we can for them, yet I hope that South Carolina will not relax he exertions in this cause, but send more men and more money to be used for the benefit of her own children I have con sented to act with them on their committee, and i endorse them in all things; my house is open to them; so indeed do many of our people —so much so that that they are better pleas ed with Missouri than Kansas, yet duty com pels them to remain in Kansas. You will see from the Charleston Mercury their address and their plans; your State must and will sustain them. Remember the stakes we are playing for". The Abolitionists are mustering all their forces for an incursion this fall,perhaps sooner. Wc will be 1 trust, prepared to give them a hearty reception. The poor devils have paid dearly for their murders and assassinations; they are humiliated, aud hundreds are leaving the territory now; how many of them will re* turn, is doubtful, but that others will come with arms in their hands, there can be no doubt The United States troops are in our wav. Execution* of Wm. Palmer.— During the whole of yesterday, says the European Times, 14 tli ult, the railway trains poured in their thousands of souls who were this morning to be spectators of the dreadful tragedy, which was at so early an hour to be enacted. They were not to be deterred from witnessing the ex ecution either by wind or weather,and although the rain decended pitilessly the greater part of the day, accompanied by convulsive gusts of wind, there was no lack of eagerness dis played to be present on the mournful occasion. The elements lent a melancholy air to the in tended proceedings, and pervading gloom was only relieved by the commotion of the visiters, who were endeavoring to secure favor able spots of observation. Asuigty, came on, all the approaches,’of the jail became more crowded than during the af ternoon, and up to the dawn of this morning there was no abatement of the interest mani fested all day. Here they remained in the mul, rain and in darkness for several hours; once a position taken it was retained most ob stinately, and by eight o’clock this morning there were not l ess than 20,000 persons pres ent who exhibited the utmost decorum and regularity. Every available inch of ground was occupied both in front and around the jail Prcciscly.at the hour appointed for tho execu tion (eight o’clock) the culprit appeared on the drop. He looked exceedingly well, and had passed an excellent night. It .had been announced that he would ad dress the multitude ou.thc scaffold, and consid erable anxiety was apparent as to the tenor of his observations, lie did not, however, say anything. He was accompanied by the Sheriff, chaplain, and other officials connected with the prison; was dressed in the prison dress--a suit of grey. None of his relatives were pres ent, but many of his friends of the turf were witnesses to the sad spectacle. Upon the un fortunate man’s appearance, the cap was plac ed over his face by Smith, of Dudley, who per formed the duties of executioner, and the rope having been adjusted, in an instant the earth ly career of the greatest criminal recorded in the annals of history was at an end. Be ©ade no confession; even yesterday he desired that the visits-of Mr. Wright, the prison philantro pist, should be discontinued, it being alleged that he did not desire to be induced to disclose the truth of the offence wi'h which he wrs charged. As Palmer is now numbered with the dead, his name, as associated with crime of the deepest dye will be spoken of and riiud erod at for centuries to come. “None but himself can be his parallel.” Power of Mind Over Be :y. The mysterious influence excrete* bv the mind over the body is well iced in the following case, contained in J)* Warren’s treatise ou the ‘preservation of .ic-aith.” ‘Some time since a female presented herself to me with a tumor or swelling ot the neck. It was about the size of an egg, had lusted two years, and was so very hard that I con sidered any effort to dissipate it by medicine to be vain, and advised it removed by operation. To t!:is the patient could not bring her mind; therefore, to satisfy her wish, some applications of considerable activity were directed to be made to the part, and these she pursued for a number of weeks without any change. After tli's she called on me, and with seme hesitation begged to know if an application recommend ed to her would in my opinion, be safe. This consisted in applying the hand of a dead man three times to the diseased part. One of her neighbors now lay dead, and she had an op port unit” of trying the experiments, if not. thought dangerous. At first, I was disposed to divei t her from it, but recollecting the power of the imagination, gravely assured her that she might make the trial, without any apprehension of serious consequences. A while after she presented herself once more, and with a smiling countenance, informed me she had used this remedy and no other, and on exam ining for the tumor, it had disappeared. A Scene for Abolitionists. —Though it would not convei‘L it might have instructed the fanatics of the North to have witnessed a slight scene iu front of the theatre Thursday night. Mr. Macallistcr was having one of his gift entertainments, and the drawing of some four or live prizes had proceeded in the usual way, when ‘an elegant gold watch’ fell to the ticket of a black man, who was desired to come down from the gallery and receive his prize. The man advanced through the parquette on the plat form, where his ticket Was examined and the watch delivered. Ho received his prize and retired to his place, amidst the victorious cheers of the crowded citizens It might have enlightened some of the truth ful Abolitionists of the North to witness this undoubted evidence of the great cruelty prac ticed on our colored population. But they would not believe even their own eyes. —Mobile llegistei A young gentleman, residing in the neigh borhood of Richmond, had occasion, a short time since, to drive his pretty cousin Fa ny down to Windsor in a gig. Little Charlie, a brother of Fanny’s, accompanied aud sat between them in the gig ; but, as he was only five or six years of age, of course he was considered nobody. Unfortunately, however, the urchin had got anew hat that very day, of which he was exceedingly proud. Finding on his arrival at Windsor, that it had sustained some injury during the journey, he rushed to his mamma to complain : ‘I declare mamma,’ he cried, ‘l’ll never ride in a gig between sister Fanny and cousin George again.’ ‘Why so my, dear V inquired mamma ‘Because, he replied, ‘they’ve brushed LiV ire.. hat all to pieces with leaning over me to less each other all the way from Richmond.’— Exchange. More Fusion in New York. — Or Saturday night last a meeting of the Killmore National Club of New York, was’held, at \v : hit was resolved to abandon the* nominees of the American party, and to support ,tl: uididates of the Blaek Republicans* Fremo.it and Day ton, for President and Vice President. The meeting passed strong anti-slavery resolutions, and changed the name of their club* which is hereafter to be known as the “American Re publican National Club.” Damages of $5,000 for Seduction. —In the Circuit Court; holden at Newport, R. I. last week, the only case tried before the jury, was Francis B. Fairweather vs. Alferd H Willard, all of Providence.
