RISK.
In the qnlet of the evening
Two are walklnt? in unrest;
Man ha touched ajealons natnr-
Anger burns In woman's breast.
(These are neither wed nor plighted.
Yet the maybe hanjrs as near
: And as fracrant as the wild-rose
-Which their garments hardly clear;
: And as briery, too, you fancy?
Well, perhaps sosome sad morn
. One, or both, may, for a moment
Vibh they never had been born).
Happy quips and honest pleadings
Meet with silence or a uneer;
'! But more keenly has she listened
Since she vowed she would not bear.
Now a Erect oali parts the pathway.
' Nature'll jrratify your mood: : .
-. To tlierlu'ht let tills divide you;
It will all be understood."
So Caprice, with childish weakness.
Yet with subtlety of thought.
Whispered in the enr of woman.
' Iove, with dread, the answer sought.
Was it superstitions feeling .
Struck at once the hearts of twe?
Had he seen proud eyes half sorry ;
P'or what little feet must do?
For he stretched an arm towards her,
Folding nothing but the air.
Saying nothing fust the motion
Drew, without offending there.
In the quiet of the evening
' Two are walking back again ;
At the oak their happy voices
. Whisper ot a vanlbhed pain.
What if they to-night be plighted,
And the maybe hangs more near
And more fragrant than the wild-rose
Which their garments hardly clear!
And more briery, loo, yon fancy T
Well, perhaps so. Thorns are ill, '
But love draws them out bo kindly.
One must trust him, come what will?
Atlantic Monthly. .
'An Appeal to Nebraska.
My Hoick, Salixx CorsTY, Nkb., Feb. 22, TO.
' Thinking that no more fitting diiy
could be chosen for an appeal to Lib
erty, I have selected this day, when
we of the greatest Republic celebrate
the universary of the birth-day of the
greatest of patriots. The sentiments
inspired by such a celebration are no
ble, and therefore it-is a proper time
for any one to ask if it is becoming,
when a people is heroically struggling
for Independence, that we should re
fuse them a. helping hand !
The deeds of Lafayette (internation
al laws to the contrary notwithstand
ing) are to-day recorded in letters of
gold upon the great book of History.
The hearts of all Americans beat with
admiration and love for the French
men who came over the Atlantic ' to.
help Washington in his great deeds.
We owe it to these men, to our good
fortune, and to our independence, to
land in Caba and help the patriots to
force th? Spanish 'ro stack arm and
retire.11 .-
For God's Pake, one more alter to
Liberty! What! we, the mightiest
nation of the world, are kept back
from doing what is human, by fear of
Euroneau diplomacy? What! shall
we allow the last of. the Cubans to
spill the last drop of his blood in vain,
when Independence should be the
price of his valor? Is it possible that
Cuba will be left to bleed ? Shall we
continue to insult Jier sufferings by a
criminal inaction, and when, upon the
cross of Lilcrty, she implores ; shall
we present her nothing tut sympathy?
Ay! but, when Liberty will ascend
the throne of the world she will judge
the Nations, and she might then say :
"I have called but you were deaf to
my voice; return to slavery!"
So many sacrifices, such deeds,
must they remain ineffective? Upon
their country's field will the blood of
these martyrs only produce a triumph
to tyranny?
Whtit do you hear in her forests?
The sad murmurs of the wind brings
me the tidings of a patriot shaking his
chains.
What do you see hovering pver her
plains? Liberty, looking for one more
social monument.-' : '
A people is not worthy of indepen
dence if it does not more than sympa
thize with the weak against a power
ful tyrant !
Symyathy! sympathy! It is a
query who we are sympathizing with
the Cubans or Spanish ? -Again I
say there is but one sort of sympathy
for -us to have, and that is a helping
tympathy. $0ur inaction encourages
Spain, and gives the tyrant means to
strengthen his chains upon the liber
ty of a people. I tell you, we as a
country are doing nothing else but
helping Spain in crushing the patriot
ic spirit of the Cubans.'
I ask again, is all this becoming?
In vain did we play the part of a fool
by attempting to purchase Cuba ; the
tyrant was not yst tired of his crual
ties. What! wo are to purchase u
people from Spain, when the people
fights and dies for independence ? Are
we to change his chains by the pur
chase? A Republic like ours can
trust in the honor of the Cubans. Let
the spirit of Washington and Jackson
inspire Grant so help us God, and
we will not be set to the- shame of a
human bargain.
Cuba should be free because the Cu
bans say, VWe must be free or die!"
became they are besprinkling their
deeds with their Mood I because
why, there would be no end to the&e
causes. Suffice it to pay that if Euro
pean diplomacy is oppposed to the in
dependence of Cuba by fear of her an
nexation to the United States, Ameri
can diplomacy commands us to view it
just exactly the other tray. I know of
no better reason than this one a con
dition sine qua non. . -
That Cuba must give way to Spain
is certain, if the patriots are not assis;
ted ; for, what can five hundred thou
sand do against fifty millions? They
can die! Yes; but every day precious
lives are lost. Shall we wait to go to
Cuba until the greatest portion of the
patriots are exterminated, so aato have
it all our ow,i way ? Shall we run the
risk to allow some other Lafayette to
come from La Belle France (the land
of devotion) ond surpass us ixi magna
nimity? If England to-day was to
come and help Cuba, where should
the Alabama claims be?
The public sentiment, if. I am not
mistaken, is greatly in favor of help
ing the Cubans; and why, if public
sentiment favors this, do our legisla
tors and the Executive oppose it? .Is
the will of the people supreme law no
longer? Are we, toor losing our lib
erty; our privileges? iBy. what right
are Americans kept from assisting the
oppressed? and by what right, again,
have the Spanish been allowed to take
a fleet of gunboats from or docks to
more effectually blockade the tmhap
py island the pera of the Mexican
oean the key to the Gulf of !.Iexico?
. I will ncrc.Vrto what we have had
to submit to from Spanish rule ; I will
not refer to their proverbial tyranny ;
only let me say, that the country that
has given me birth still trembles, with
hate when it remembers Ferdinand
and -Isabella. - Four centuries have
not effaced from my native soil the
signs of Spanish terror; &daI many a
dark subterranean dungeon did I see,
with irpn hooks firmly affixed in the
arch roof where my countrymen wee
hanged by the throat because they
loved their country too well! In the
ruins of some feudal castles many a
very deep well did I see, where those
saints of the Inquisition used to pile
women, men and children, thrown in
there alive and left to die the most
terrible of deaths, because they would
not submit, to tyranny! Grasping
firmly the iron railing, when I looked
over in the abyss of these graves, a
cold sweat would cover me at once,
my heart would almost cease to beat,
and from all the greatest sufferings
in there endured you can ;preeeive
nothing but darkness. Ay; but the
crime is dark yet, and retribution has
already called upon Spain to answer
for several of her hellish deeds.

be submitted to some Spanish tribunal,
another ' sample of . Torquemada's
courts of justice, -perhaps. What!
Americans art! insulted by mobs, when
those Americans are down and bleed
ing, rj be mortally wounded ; they
are trampled on by fanatics, for to see
the last drop of Llood gush out of the
ghastly wounds. The government
which is weak enough to even allow
such thoughts in- the minds, of. its
citizens should be blotted out from the
roll of nations. Nn-poleon, for a le?3
offense than this from Portugal, pro
claimed to the. world,' "The house of
Bragancia has ceased to reign." While
the star-spangled banner is unfurled
to the breeze upon the flag-ship of the
Gulf , squadron under the guns of
Moro Castle, must JSpanteh steel epill
our blood and our cannons refrain to
speak f If Farragute had been on
board that flag-ship, Havanna to-day
would be in ashes, in spite of all the
artillery of the terrible rock of Moro.
To think that even a recognition of
the beligerency tof an. oppressed peo

U. S. Congress, is a stain upon our na

It seems that laws must be made or
amended before we can rush to the
rescue. If so, why have they not been
made long ago? Did Lafayitte wait
for laws wheri he came over a distance
of three thousand miles, with Laroch
ambeau, Estaingand Suffren, to assist
Washington to crush Corn wallis?
Had France anything to gain by it?
And we have about one hundred miles
to go, and we might save the Cubans,
if not gain Cuba! Great God!
What more absurd than to say to
the people:. Be not devoted; have
no enthusiasm ; think only of your
interests. 'With such a deep policy,
when the;hour 'of devotion will ar
rive, every one will shut his door, go
to his window, and see liberty pass

The Wedding Ring Finger.
This is the fourth finger on the left
hand. - Why this" particular digit
should have received such a token of
honor and trust beyond all its con
geners, both in pagan and Christian
times, has been variously interpreted.
The most common explanation is. Re
cording to Sir Thomas Browne, "pre
suming therein that a particular ves
sel, nerve,, vein or artery, is conferred
thereto from the heart ;" which direct
vascular communication Browne
showj to be .anatomically, incorrect.
Macrobiusgivesanother reason, which
niay perhaps satisfy those anatomists
who are not satisfied ,with the above.
"Pollex," he .says, yor thumb, (whose
office and general usefulness are suf
ficiently iudicated from its Latin de
rivative poello,- and ..from its Greek
equivalent antichicr, which means,
'as vood as a hand'), is too busy to be
set opart for any such sjecial employ
ment; the next finger to the thumb,
being but half projected on that side,
beside having other work totlo, is also
ineligible: the opprobrium attaching
to the middle finger, called medians,
puts it entirely out of the ' question ;
and as the little fingerstands exposed,
and is, moreover,, too puny to enter
the lists in such a contest, the spousal
honorsdevolve uattiarlly on pronobus,
the wedding fintrer."
In the British Apollo,, 17C,V it is
urged that the fourth finger was cho
sen from its being not only lo.-s used
than either of the rest, but more capa
ble of preserving a ring from bruises ;
having this one quality peculiar to
itself, that it cannot be extended but
in company with some other finger,
whereas the rest may be stretched out
to theilr full length nnd straightness.

I Worked, and Earned It. .
A few weeks ago, a gentleman liv
ing in an Eastern town, wes ct.lled
out of his bed one morning Ly several
vigorous raps upon his front-door.
Hastily dressing hircself, he respond
ed to the call, and found standing up
on the steps an uncouth, roughly clad
boy, with an ax on his shouhier, who,
hastily thrusting his hand into his
pantaioons pocket, drew out a small
roll, and handing it to Judge II ,
sai d : "
"There's seventy-five dollars, which
I want you to put in the savings
bank,',' and hastily tamed on his heel
and started away.
The Judge, slightly disconcerted at
the curious proceeding, scarcely knew
what to say, till at length, recovering
his wjts,. he cried out after the boy :
Stop! come back here. How did
you come by this money ?"
"I WORKED, AND EARNED IT, sir.
My time was out last night, and I got
my money. - I' ve got a job choppiug,
which-1 began on this morning, and I
thought I'd leave the money with you
a3 I-went to work, and 'then it
would'nt take up my time this eve
ning when I want toj-tudy."
"What is your name, my boy?"
asked the Judge.
"I wrote it on the paper that I wrap
ped the monejr up in," shouted the
little wood-chopper as he passed cn to
his work.
That boy's note for a thousand dol
lars due ten years hence would be as
good as gold. If, he has his health,
he will be worth double that then.'
He Is beginning in the right way.
The very day his time, was out for the
summer, he entered upon another job,
and immediately placed, the money he
had worked for where that would
work for him and with an econorqy
of time which is more to be praised
than his wise forethought with regard
to money, he could not endure to have
a moment devoted to any thing but
his books when the long evenings
came. -
Five years from to-day, with a good
education, with good habits, with a
few hundred dollars, which he has
earned by work, his chances for place
in the business and political world
will be far greater than those of the
spendthrift boy who, born with for

The Little Cup of Tears.
We find the following North Ger-;

Stories," and of Bohn's antiquated
stories. It is too beautiful to remain
in the sole keeping of autiquitaries.
There was a mother who loved her
first child with, her whole heart, and
thought she could not live without it ;
but the Almighty sent a great sickness
among the children, who seized this
little one, who lay on a sick bed even
to death. Three days and three
nights the mother watched and prayed
by. the side of herdarling child, butit
died." . ' . ..
The mother, "now alone in the
worldgave vay to the most wild and
unspeakable grief;, she ate nothing,
and drank notning, and wept, wept,
three long days, and three long nights.
This mother did without ceasing,
calling constantly for her child. The
third night as 6he thus sat overcome
with 'suffering, in the place where the
child had died;' hpr-eyes- lathed in
tears, and faint from grief, the door
softlj' opened, and the mother started,
for before her stood herdeparted child.
It bad become a heavenly angel, and
aud -smiled sweet as innocence,
was beautiful like the blessed. It had
in its hand a small cup that was almost
running over, so full it was. And
theehild spoke : "Oh ! dearest moth
er weep no more for me. If for me
you shed but one tear more it will
overflow. I shall have no more rest
in the grave and no joy In Heaven.
Therefore, oh,: dearest mother, weep
no more for your child, for it is well
and happy, and angels are his com
panions."'. It-tbcu.Yauished. The
mother shed no more tears, that she
might not disturb her child's joy in

. Take life just as though it was as
it is earnest, vital, essential affair.
Take if just as though you personal
ly were born to the task of perform
ing a merry part in it as thor h the
world had waited for your coming.
Take it as if it was a grand opportu
nity to do and achieve; to carry
forward 'great nnd good schemes; to
help and cheer a suffering, weary, it
may be a heart broken brother.
. The fact is, life is undervalued by a
majority of mankind. It, is not made
half as much of as should be the
case. Where "3 the man. or woman
who accomplishes one tithe of what
miglit be done?.. ..Who cannot look
back upon opportunities lost plans
unachieved, thoughts crushed, aspi
rations unfulfilled, and all caused by
the necessary and possible effort? 1 If
we knew better how to take life and
make the most of life, it would, be far
greater than it Is. Now and then a
man stands aside from the crowd,
labors earnestly, steadfastly, confi
dently, and straightway . becomes
famous for greatness of some sort.
The world wonders, admires, idolizes;
yet it only illustrates what each may
do if he takes hold of life, with a
purpose. If a man but says he xv'dl,
and 'follows 'it up, he may expect to
accomplish anything reasonable.

A system cf treatment for habitual

The old common law maxim that

and however much they miht Ikj sus

But now, under the new. Act recent

treatment previJls. Supleuicntary to

What may be the practical working
of this new law cannot, of course, be

method, for it is monstrous to assume
that as wealth or what is the same

'' A Death-Bed Seraoa.
.The New York Daily Star says the
following occurred in New York re
cently : A gentleman died last week,
at his residence in one of ourup-town
fashionable streets, leaving $11,0X),UK).
He was a member of the Presbyterian
Church, in excellent standing, a good
husband and father, and a thrift y citi
zen. On: his death-bed, -lingering
long he suffered with great agony of
minutand gave continual expressions
to his remor.se for what his conscience
told him was an Ill-spent life. "Oh!"
he exclaimed, and his weeping friends
gathered about his bed "Oh! if I
could only live my years over again.
Oh! if I could only be spared -for a
few years, I would giveall the wealth
I have amassed in a life-time. It is a
life devoted to money-getting that I
regret. It is this which weighs me
down and makes me despair of the
life hereafter!'.'- His clergyman en
deavored to soothe .him, but he turn
ed his face to the wall. "You have
never reproved my averaciou.s spirit,"
he said to the minister. "You have
called it a wise economy and fore
thought, but I now know that riches
hesbeen only asnare for my poorsowl!:'
In this sad state of mind, refusng to
be consoled, this poor rich man be
wailed'a life devoted to mere atjuisi

'A Singular Warning.
Some weeks ago a prominent citizen
of Auburn was in the city of Chicago
transacting business connected with
his manufacture in the place.- One
evening, after an . active day's work,
feeling somewhat fatigued, he retired
to his room at the hotel a little earlier
than usual, and made his customary
arrangements for the night -but just
as he had composed himself for 'sleep
lie experienced a singular senratlon.
and lie'ard a voice, apparently very
near, and as plainiy and distinctly as
though it issued from the throat of a
human, . prounce 'the words "Your
mother died to-day," and with the
words came an assurance that the an
nouncement was indeed too true to
doubt it. He arose in the morning.
after Jiaving passed a sleepless night,
and made immediate preparation for
a journey home.
As he started for tne depot lie met a
boy with a telegraph dispatch in his
hand, and calling him to his side he
asked if the message was not for him
giving the name and sure enough
it was from his family, concerning the
truth of the announcement of the un
seen Informant, that his mother had
died the day previous. He had re
ceived no intimation but that she was
enjoying her usual health, nor had
there been anything to excite, in the
slightest degree, hi" apprehensions
for her safety, until the occurrence of
the iucident related.
A story is fold of a temperance man
being at a wedding, who was asked to
drink the bride's health in a gla of
wine which was offered him. He
refused to partake of the intoxicating
liquid, aud said when he drank her
health, it. would be in that which re
sembled her most in purity, and he
knew nothing better than water
pure water, lie then drank her health
in a glass of God's beverage park

the occasion, immediately stepped
forward and mnkinga respectful cour

compliment he had just paid the fair
bride, when it was resolved that all

What Women Seed First.
' The women of this country Lave
one grief which exceeds all others.
This is not their legal wrongs nor
their political disabilities, nor their
lack of educational facilities. It ia
the homely matter of domestic l.f-lp.'
It is impossible for the great mul;i-.
tude of American housekeepers to
obtain competent and reliable domes
tics. Consequently they are harassed
and worn between physical exhaus
lion from overworking themselves on
the one hand, and vexation from
incompetent and untrustworthy help
on the other, until their burden is lit
erally greater than they can tear.
The Liberator, whom the ladies will
hail with the greatest gratitude, will
be the one who rescued them from'
thid insufferable bondage. Can not
the combined wisdom of the emigrant
women who are laboring so effectively
for the enfranchisement of their sex,
devise needed relief in this respect?
And are the eminent ones not in a.
great error in seeking first to repair
the wrongs which the oppressed
scarcely feel at all, because of this
more immediate and palpable suffer
ing which they can not escape, no,
not for an hour? And Is it not proba
ble that if women could enjoy the
surplus strength and leisure which
adequate relief in their . domestic
again would afford, they would ex
hibit a far greater interest In the re
form of their civil and political status?
