JOHN' AND JONATHAN.
BY CHARLES mAOKAY.
Said brothcr Jonathan to John,
"You are the elder born ;
Audi can bear. another's hate
But not Your lightest Scorn.
You've lived a life of 'noble strife,
'You've made a Werld: y'eur own,
-Why, when. 1 follow inyour steps,
ReoeiVe me with a groan'
'I lcd the prornptings of in youth,
TEat urge me evermore:
To spreado.nY ame, my race, my fame,
. From Core to furthest shore,
1 feel the lightning's in my blood,
The thulider's inmy hand, .
And must work- my destiny,
Whoever may Withstand
"And if. you'd give me, brother John,
(The SymPathy I crave,
And. stretch -your warm frateritai hand.
• Across the Atlantic way%
I'd give it such a cordial grasp
That earth shoull. start- to see,.
An(1 ancient eros,viis and sceptr4s-slis,ke
That fear bOtli you and. me."
Said. brother John to Jonathan,
"You do My nature wrong ;
I never hated never seorned,
- But loved. you well _mid long.
If children of the self -same sires,..
We've (pimpled now and then; '
TWaS Only in onr early youth,
And not since we were men, •
"And if with cautions, cooler 'blood,
Result of sufferings keen,
I soiTietlineS-think you move too fast, •
Mistake not; what 1 mean. .
I've felt the follies of my youth, -
The -errors of my prime
And dreamed for you—my father's sorb—
& future more sublime, 1
"And. here's my'hand—tis freely given --
I stretch it o'er the brine,
And wish you, from my heart of hearts,
A hirther life flan mine,
'rept* let us rule the world;
Together let us thrive;
For if you're only twenty7one.
Pin Scarcely thirty-five.
"And I have strength for nobler.work
Than ere my hand has done..
And realms to r ule, and -truths to plant
Beyond the rising sun.
Taken you the West. and I the .East.
We'll spread ourselves abroad,
With trade, and spade, and wh olesome laws
And faith M man and God.
Take you the West, and I the East;
We speak the self -same tongue
That Milton wrote and Chatham spoke,
That Burns and Shakespeare sung;
And from our tongue, our hand, our heart
Shall countless blessings flow,
To light two darkened hemispheres
Thot know not where they go.
"Our Anglo-Saxon name and fame,
Our Anglo-Saxon speech,
Iteceive their mission straight frOm Heaven
To civilise and teach.
So here's my hand—I stretch it forth;
Ye meaner lands, look on!.
From this day forth there's friendship firm
'Twixt Jonathan and John !"
# .
They -shook their hands, this noble pair,
And o'er the "electric chain"
Cacee daily messages of peace
And love betwixt the twain.
When other nations, sore oppressed,
Lie dark in sorrow's night,
They look to Jonathan and John.
And hope for coming light.

Gladstone on Irish Affairs
-The inangural banquet Of the Lord
Mayor of London took place at Guild-

the Ministry; -Foreign Am baSsadors,
and a large. and distinguished company
were present. Mr. Gladstone replic-d
to the toast of 'Her Majesty's_ Minis-
ters' On rising he was loudly cheered
He returned thanks- for the honor, a
said the good feeling Of the citizens to-
wards the Govermirent Wa8 an omen;
and indicative of the. commcia senti-
metals pervading -the land.' He 'con-
tinued : 'Whatever the tendencies of
modern civilization, whatever its tri-
umphs' may be, I do not undervalue
them. They have not had, nor . are
tney likely to have in our day, or in
our chiiidren's, the effect of lightening
the responsibilitles Of the GoVeillrnent.
,As the standard of our ideas and wants

demands on those in office.' Iu is to

know that throughput the country one
sentiment prevails in respect to _the

WaS more seriously addressed than for-
merly, towards making endeavor3 to
.put an encito what, has been a problem
and speek on the fair fame of our coun-
try for -so many geeeratiens. In Ire:
land we see society socially diseased.
We see.people of noble capaeity and
quick srisceptibility, Whoze heart in
many CaSeS aoes not beat with warm
and Lvely attachment to her sister
countries, and. who do not in all res-
pects yield to the -authority of laws
which we gladly recognize on this side
of the channel. This year has been
marked by the augmentation of agrar-
ian Outrages from whieh this country
is singulaety free. The. general tend-
encies to crime there acquire paittful
notoriety, and -Strike the hearts of
Englishinen with deadly chill. As to
the causes of these outrages it would
probably be premature and- (alien) t
now to- decide. To those connected
with these outrages, I- would suggest
that, it is not the way to obtain success
in the Legislature. The committers of
outrages are the enemies to the inter-
ests of.the country. • We, -are glad to be
eheered in oin own endeavbrs to give
all Ireland the strength and unity
which a considerable part of Ireland
now enjoys. For that end we shall
labor, encouraged- by . our generous
countrymen. In regard' to our _ for-
eign poticy it would be idle to say
that thik department ot affdirs has small
interest for England. Important in-
terference; -I hope, we shall always
avoid. A meddlesome and ambitious
desire for influence we shah always
forswear. But the sentiment _9f, true
'brotherhood for those Man tries. with
which we ai'e united. by 80 many costly
ties, every monarchy is bound to quit',

nounce,--eHappily we are disconraged
from prosecutioa quarrels with the -
world in general, having none tosprose-

England, though not Obtruded, is

had no small influence in allaying diet
torltanceS and compromising differences
which have,.and migh t *have a risen `in
various parts of the world. His noble

Onepartial exception 1 onglit to make,
and it is an exception which is of the
deepest interest .to Englishmen, namely,
Our relations with . America. But
there is no occasion'on which I conk]
more appropriately refer to these rela-
tions, or better describe the& than as
those .of peace and .concord. Were
to at empt to depart from that friendly
strain I should be .admonished to judge
more correctly, and to speak more
wisely by the event whin has happened
Within this city during tee last few
days, 1 refer to the death of George
Peabody, a mat whose splendid bene -
factious will seCure immortality for his
name in that which he regarded as his
old mother country, but whose fame
likewise, caid in a broader sense; is ap-
IrOR COPY
plicablei- to all humanity. He has
taught the mosb needful lessons how
man can be master of his fortune, and
not its slave, and it is most touching to
know tha 1 have learned from his
friends that while, some men. would
have been nilhappy at the idea of dying
in a foreign land, his :affections were
so divided between the laid of his birth
and the land of his ancestors, that that
which had:. been his fondest wish may
now be realised, to be buried in Ameri-
ca but the in England. With Pea -
body's country We are not likely to
quarreL Jt is true that care and
skill in diplomacy, animated though it
1)as been by the purest and most np-
right feelings, although it has not im-
perilled onr peace, has failed Lolead to
thc first issue up to the pr .(?xent moment
upon the tangled questions or law which
have been in discuson between the
two coriptries. Considerable delay
has taken place. Yet every delay,
instead of leading to (la aer was prompt-
ed by cOsiderable good
derive to allow the intervention of a
limited time in order to obviate the
difficulties. 1 betiel e the world wonld
view with horror a parricidal between
England and America. But snch a,
state of things is not likely to arise
from our pretent relations, and -my con-
fidence is in the seni,iminsts yhich
know animate the American Govern-
ment as we11. as our rown, and which
'ho a uimate the initas of the people of
thesetwo great countries. Another
source. of confusion -is *comsected with
the changes which we witness in every
co Lai t ry,late Internal public opinion
has been growing into the standard of
international conduct higher than that
formerly set out, and becomes necessary
for our own interest that the conduet
of the country not only conforms to
otir own ideas of its claims and rights,
but to that sense wh.ch is. entertained
of International tights and duties by
the' whole 111DSS of the civilized com-
munity.
Worna,n Marrying a Woman.
An account of a very eKtraordinary
marriugo conies to us frcm Chili. It
is probably without a parallel in the
annals of the law. --,Near Santiago,
the capi al of Chili, are the baths of
Colina. The people of fashion. crowd
this watering place in the proper sea-
son, to find rest and quiet there. Near.
the oaths have beere.woht to meet a
young man who otfeied for sale newly .
laid eggs, awl many other articles, for
whieh be found a demand among the
fashionable society of the place.—
There was one peculiarity c.bont this
young which attracted the attention of
the nteice. He always w' -re a• cloak.
Whatever the. occasion the cloak was
never removed. But that was all.
Further io vestigation revealed nothing
except that the youth WaS a handsome
and indusrions young fellow, making
an honest living oy ,-,selling eggs.
Among the beautiful sencritas in the
habit of•resorting to the baths was a
dark haired young heiress from Santia-
go. The engaging -demeanor of the .
seller of eggs. and pet haps the air of
tiiystery- about hips, attracted heratten-
it was not long before a courtship had
tion. This be quickly perceived; and
resulted in the betrothal of the humble
youth and the rich girl. They suc-
ceeded in satisfying the parerits of the
ung lady, and the mai riage took
place. Only a few days paseed, when
the city was scandalised by the report
for divorce, brought by the wife. Site
had mrrried m wometr. The youth
wearing the cloak, and with the dress
and manner of a- Than, was one of her
own sex. A divorce was, of coerse,
immediately granted, but a serious
cinestion was presented to the court, as
to the wife's property. it seems that
the 80 called husband, whose object
,was to obtain -the property of her
victim, had already made - purchases
and contracts in her wife's 'Jame.
Should these Le regarded as valid'?
The husband certainly acted as the
agent of the wife, and with the wife's
consent. 'Still, though the pretended
husband is subject to other punishment
through her fraudulent assumption, it
seems hard to compel the wife to ,ipplv
her money to the -fulfillment of the
contracts made under such cireurnstan-
ces. The case is yet undecided.

Eands and Feet.
I went into a snop the other dfiv to
buy what the drapya.s calf " genes Close.'
A smiling young lady was behind the.
counter, and when 1 made an appeal
to her to show me s.ome socks, .i was
somewhat , doubtful w:rat com.se of
action I ought to pursue in order to
demonstrate to her the length of my
feet As I am not a burlesque write4,
it was clear that I could not Lly tnv,
boot on the counter ar.cl say "with all
my sole ;" nor cohld I paraphnise Did -
bin's Jack Tar, "when he spoke of the
dancer who so dailitly handled her
feet." The little woman however,
speedily removed my first perplexity,
though only to plunge me, into another.
." Will you please double up your
fist and and lay it on the counter !"
I replied that I did not want gloves
but socks.
"siAaicl.1 icI -want to take your measure,"
siae
But,," I urged, "it is the measure
of my foot that you require." -
" Yes,' she replied, "And .1 can get
it as Well foul Your hand. Once round
your clenched fish at the knuckles is
the-lengtb of your foot."
And she took the measure of my at.,,
and I took the -socks on the faith of
the d a m se 1 's repi esen tatiork; and, in
.due course, I found that it was quite
right, and fitted me to a nicety.—Cur-

Webster and Fessendon.
Some thirty-five years ago—perhaps
mo-e—Daniel 'Wel)ster contemplated a
journey to our Western States and
territories, which he had never visited.
The great statesman felt inclired to
have some talented young man to ac-
company him, and, in looking over
New 'England for such a -companion,
his attention -was ,attraeted to Fessene
den, and he extended -to him an imi-
tation to travel with him, which *as
eagerly accepted. Many a, time, says
the editat of the Portland Argus, Mr.
Fessenden has spoken to us of the ad-
vantages and impressions of hat trip.
Mr. Webster treated him with great
kindness, and gat e him much good mi.-
-vice which lie trwasured up in his
memory.. Webster -told bin) how hard
°he had studied, and how careful be was
in making out pipers when he commen-
ced tne practice of law. Be said he
never let a writ Or -other legal docn-
nlent pass front his bands unti,1 he read
it over three times at least. And he
frirther remarked that while , many
young men we; e idling away tlit;ir ti‘e
be was trimming the midnight lamp.
"Now,' said Webster, "1 have ac,
quire() some fame As a lawyer and art
orator, and have made speeches in
which have occurred some figures aria
illustrations often quoted and which
haNte already passed into mottoes. And
now do you suppose these teme sayings
%Vete made from the stur of the mo-
ment' By no means ; they were the
result of previous stutly;----and close
study too. Some of my oe,st illustra-
tions of thought have been stndied and
ttinimed down when the fishing -rod
was in my hands. The words which
so fitly represent El gland's power, 80
often -quoted, and so math praised,
were stung together 'white I stood on
the A merics.n side, of the Niagara Riv-
er near the Fall, and beard tl,it British
drum beaten on the Canada side."
Many other statements he ma -de to
young Fessenden which proved pretty .
conclusively that there is ro royal roasi
to learning.
