The Three Fishers.
Threefisherswent Bailing out into the West,
Out Into the West as the sun went down;
Each thought on the woman who loved him the beat.
And the children stood watching them out of the town;
Far men must work, and women must weep.
And there's little to earn, and many to keep.
Though the harbor bar be moaning.
Three wives sat up in the light house tower,
And they trimmed the lamps as the sun went down.
They looked at the squall, and they looked at the shower.
And the night rack came rolling up ruggef^and brown!
Bat men must work, and women must weep,
.Though storms be sudden and waters deep,
And the harbor bar be moaning.
Three corpen lay out ou the shining sands
In the morning gleam as the tide went down.
And the women were weeping and wringing their bands
For those who will never come back to the to#n;
For men must work, and women must weep,
And the sooner it'* over, the sooner to sleep—
And good-bye to the bar and its moaning.

T h e Spectre a t a
I stood on the walls of Sumter
As the solemn night came down '
On the lone, beleaguertdjp<>res«.
On the traitor camp and town;
While through the lurid heavens
Sped the red-hot shot and shell.
As u by mad fiends driven
From the open months of hell;
While the flag of a sovereign nation.
On the palpitating air,
Still waved from its lofty station
Amid the fiery glare.
And I saw where fiercest, direst,
Raged the terrible battle s t o r m Where the banting shells fell hottest.
There towered a spectral form:
I knew by its prond erectness.
By its calm, determined mien.
By the strong arms sternly folded,
By the deep, clear eye serene,
Twas that old man, lion-hearted.
Of tho dark and terrible frown,
Th® Genius of Retribution—
Old OSAWATOXW Bnowx.
*-T1B well!" he murmured softly,
•• O traitorous, coward band I
Ply your engines fiercer, faster,
'Gainst the flag of your native land!
Rain your dreadful hail more hotly
On the heads of that fkithful few.
Stifled, and faint, and famished.
With their flag of truce in view!
" Roar louder, ye murderous cannon!
With every echoing boom
O'er the hills of the sturdy Northland
Sweeps tho story of Sumter's doom;
And I hear above your thnnder
The shout of a parlors band,
Waked suddenly from slumber,
To strike for their native land.
. "As the lion of the desert
Ixiaps Hercoly from his lair,
And gazes down the distance
' With fixed and fiery glare—
— As the bolt along the storm-cloud
Quivers in fierce unrest,
Ere it burst In triple vengeance
On earth's rent and quivering breast—
E'ec sSlhe sons of Freedom
- Vor one dreadful moment stand,
—'Till your murderous hand uplifted
Is struck at your native land.
"StHko fiercer,' faster, murderers!
Steeped to t o the core in sin,
See, the flag of your country drooping—
Aim at itonee again!
All Sumter's guns are voiceless.
And the flames are hot within.
And faint are her brave defendersAim at her onee again!
"" 1 dastards,«ravens, cowards,
JTe are brave and knightly men!
Your loes disable^ silenced—
Pire on them once again!
"Ah! mine is tho unsealed vision,
And mine is the prophet ear:
Yc may laugh In your mad derision,
But the day of doom is near!
New England's hills will echo
With the warrior'a battle cry,
And New York's Excelsior banner
'Mid shouting* kiss the sky:
From the free North's lakes and rivers,
O'er the distant prairie's breast,
From true-souled Pennsylvania,
And the bold unlettered West—
- Like the roar of the mountain torrent.
Like the shriek of the tempest comes,
• God and our country ever ! •
Our Banner and our Homes'.'
'«Oh! this ia the day 1 prayed for,
When against the wintry sky,
r
,With
a rope aronnd mv throttle
"i Ye hung me up to die—
The day wnep my free-born brothers
In their lofty laith will rise,
And wipe from their fair escutcheon
The Main that on it lies—
When Manhood, crushed and blighted.
Trampled, and bruised, and torn;
And Womanhood, lashed, pointed,
The victim of luat and acorn,
From their fainting spirits lifted
The burden and the blight,
May wake from their loathsome serfdom
To revel In Freedom's light
" My countayl oh, my country!
Ihave called on you oft before,
Would God that my strong appealing
Might enter vour souls once more!
As you value the boon of Freedom,
So fearlessly won for you.
Strike home for your firesides bravely,
.. And a whole Freo Country too!
Let your proud Flag Was the heavens
With nevera blot or stain;
O'er bleeding human chattels
Never to float again 1"

summit of the pyramid, having resolved t o pass the
night there. I retained tho sheik of the Bedouins aod
two of his men. and sent down another to bring op the
pipes and coffee I had brought fiom Cairo. The promise
o f a backsheesh silenced their protestations and fears.
T h e Bedouins kindled a fire with charcoal under the lee
of the stone, and made me some excellent coffee after
their manner. Washing the coffee down with a bumper
of claret to the memory of old Cheops, we lit our pipes,
the Bedouins leaving mo to contemplate the darkening
landscape, while they, gathered in a group, indulged in
suspicious surmises as t o my object in sleeping on the
pyramids.

.
T h e last rays of light were gradually fading from the
horizon, and the landscape was every moment becoming
darker and darker. On one side stretched a green p l m
dotted with Tillages and clumps of palms; the bright
crest of tho Nile, gleaming in the expiring rays of the
sun, and meandering through it in gentle curves, relieving the dark green of the landscape. Beyond the minarets of Cairo were indistinctly seen, tinped with the
departing light. Turning to the north, the eye ranged
over the great desert of Lybia, which stretched away a
blank expanse of sand, upon which not a human being
was to be seen. The solitude was as profound as that
which ranged within the chambers ol the pyramid beneath us. Across tho plain, as day declined, the villages
were indicated only by flitting lights and tho baying of

with pencillings of light, while tho rest of the heavens

(Confessional Discovered.
A new style of confessional has lately been discovered
in a monastic establishment near Florence. I t is described
as handsomely carved and gilded, on the upper pannel being painted a head of our Saviour, the lower panel showing a painting of the cross. I t i3 about six feet high.Jand
appears to have been made in the sixteenth century. The
remarkable feature of the confessional consists in its internal mechanical contrivances. T h e priest, w"ho may be
interrogating a sinner; and pointing to the panel representing the Saviour, has only to tonch aspriug, when the
scene suddeuly falls, and a figure representing the devil,
the size of a man, falls forward.
H e is no chjef of the fallen angels such as Milton paints,
but such as Luther used to see. A horned, brown head,
with large round protruding eyes, rolling fearfully; the
tongue hanging out of the.mouth, and made to move; a
few tufts of negro-like hair; in f a c t a monster. The
hands are like the long-Dailed claws of a quadruped The
body is boldly carved; in fact, there is a sort or pronounced art treatment in the figure which makes,one remember the Michael Angclo period of Italian art, although
this example is simply rude. When the figure appears
a sort of infernal rattling noiso comes from the internal
machinery. An old trick this, accompanying subterranthunder, as old as paganism, the superstitions and imr . :ures of which proved that the ancients were familiar,
with the science of acconstics. *
T h e " E x t r a o r d i n a r y " N u m b e r Seven.
On the 7th of tho 7th month a holy observance, was
ordained, to the children of Israel, who feasted 7 days
and remained 7 days in tents; the 7th year was directed
to be a Sabbath of rest for all things, and at the end of
times 7 years commenced the grand jubilee; every 7th
year the land lay fallow, every 7 th year there was a grand
release, l . j m all debts, and bondsmen were set free. From
this law-might have originated the custom of binding
young met) .to 7 years apprenticeship, and of punishing : «corrigible oftjeders by transportation for 7, twice 7,
three times 7 vears. Anciently a child was not named
before 7 days, not being accounted fully to have life before that periodical day. The teeth spring out in the 7&
month, and are shed in the seventh year, when infancy, i
changed into childhood A t thrice 7 years the faculties
are developed, manhood commences, and man becomes
legally c o m p e t e n t ^ all civil acts; at four times 7 a man
is in full possession of his strength; at five times 7 b e is
fit for tho business of the world; at six times 7 he becomes graver and wisef, or never; at seven times 7 be is
in apogee, and from that decays; at eight times 7 he is in
his arst climcateric; at nine tiroes 7, or 63, he is in his
grand climacteric, or year of danger; and ten times 7,
or three score years and ten, was by the Royal prophet
pronounced the period of life.
