Advocate.
From Prone tiketcLex ar.d Poem, by
Albert Pike.
Oh who with the sons of the plain
can complete,
When from west, south ar.d north
like the torrents they meet'
And when doth the face of the white
trader hlanch,
Except when at mrcnric he hears
the Cumanch.
Will you speak in cur lode of a hold
CaUwah?
lie is brave, but it i when our braves
are afar.
Will yoa talk of the gun cf the
Arapeho?
Go first sec the arrow spring off
from our bow.
The white wolf with us where-
cver we ride,
Fcr food can he find then on every
side
And Mexican bones he has plenty
to c ranch.
When he follows the band of the
flying Cumanch.
The Toyah exults in his spear and
his shield.
And the Wequah, but both have we
taught how to yield:
And the Hanana horses onr women
now ride,
While their scalps in our dges are
hung side by side.
Let the Wawsashy boast he H1
run like a dcrr.
When afar on the prairie cur wo
men appear
The shaven scalps hang in each
lodge three or four
Wc will count them again, when ere
long we take mere.
The Gromonts came down 'tis three
summers ago
To look for our xalps and to hunt
buffalo
Ikit they turned to the mountains
their faces again,
And the trace, of their lodges has
gone in the rain.
The Spirit above never sends us his
curse
And the buffalo never gets angry
with us
We are strong as the storm we are
free as the bi eeze,
And we laugh at the power of the
pale Ikaneve,
Let them come with the pipe we
will ti ead it to dut:
And the arrow of war shall ne'er
moulder with rust
Let them come with their hosts to
the deserts we'll ftee:
And the drouth and the famine or.r
helpers shall be.
The mountain Shoshones have hearts
big and strong,
Our brothers they are, ar.d they
speak the same tongue.
And let thtm in battle but stand by
our side,
And we scorn Ikanese and black
Spaniard allied.
Oo-oo-ha! come out from the Brazo
cannonlf
Let us range to the head cf the salt
Semaron
For our horses are strong, and
there's hair to be won.
When the Ikanese wagens their
track are upon.

yone.

1 have just time before the pack
et sails to send you an anecdote
that is bought out of the London
papers: A nobleman, living near
Belgrave Square, received a visit
a day or two from a police officer,
who stated to him, that lie had a '
man servant in bis house who had
escaped from Botany Bay. His
lordship was somewhat surprised,
but called up the raale part of tits
household, at the officer's request,
and passed them in review. The
culprit was not among t'uem. The
officer then requested to see the
female part of the establishment;
and, to the inexpressible astonish
ment of the whole household, he
laid his hand upon the shoulder
of the lady $ confidential maid, and
informed her she was his prisoner.
A change of dress was immediate
ly sent for, and miladi's dressing
maid was re-metamorphosed into
an effeminate looking fellow, and
marched off to a new trial. It is
a most extraordinary thing that
lie had lived unsuspected in the
family for nine months, perform
ing all the functions of a confiden
tial Abigail, and very much in
tavor with his unsuspecting mis
tress, who is rather a serious per
son, and would as soon have
thought of turning out to be a
man Lcrself. It is said that the
l!tiband once nettle a riilark np
n the fuiskhiess of the maid's
v'olce. but no other comment was
ver marie reflecting in the least J
upon hfr qua'itiesas a member ot
the beau ut. The story is quite
authentic, but hushed up not ol
regard to the'Iady. N. P- W
Mourning. In Europe, black
is --f.trally u-ed because it rep-re-.f7nts
darkness, unto which
death is like, as it is a privation
of life. In China, white is used,
because they hope the dead are
in heaven, the place of purity. In
Egypt, yellow is used, because it
represents the decaying of trees
and flowers which yellow as they
die away. In Ethiopia, hrown
is used because it denotes the col
or of the earth from whence we
came, and to which we re
turn. In some parts of Turkey
hlue is tistil becau-e it represents
the sky, where they hope the
dead are gone; hut in other parts
purple and violet, because being
a mixture of hlack and hlue, it
represents, as it were, sorrotv on
one side, and hope on the other.
(JUA March merchant lately
died in Holland, leaving a for
tune of a million to each of his
six children. The secret of his
giins consisted in feed in some
three or 4000 hog yearly, upon
the refuse of his manufactory,
which is generally thrown away
for its offeriMVeness but which
consists chiefly of the gluten or j
mot nutritious portion of vegeta- j
bio matter. j
A Mother's three Holidays. i
The interesting Cora in the trage- j
dv of Pizarro, thus describes the
three holiday?, "allowed by Na
ture s san tton, to a iona moth
er's heart:"'
'When first the white blossoms '
of his teeth appear, breaking
through the crimson buds that did ;
encase them, that is a day of joy.
Next, when from his father's arms
he runs without support, and
clings laughing and delighted to
Ids mother's knees, that that is
the mother's heart's next holiday;
and sweeter still the third, when
ever his little stammering tongue,
shall utter the grateful sound of
Father, Mother. O, that is the
dearest joy of all.'
CTHere, Sam, stand behind
my back, said a hump-backed fel
low. Oh, yes, sir. And Sam
goes behind him. Why, Sam,
when you are behind me, you are
before my back! Sam, thus non
plussed, goes round in front of the
fellow. Why, Sam, that's before
me, not behind my back! Why,
dang it, sir, you're all back; and
as for knowin this side from that,
I'll be darned todarnation if I can
tell tother from which!
