1 do not sing the joys of Spring:
'Tis not the rroper season ;
Nor wake my lento summer gay,
Just for the selfsame reason.
The autumn's throng. the reapers' song
Have pase'd on hurried pinion,
And Winter's snows, and frosty blows
Assert his cold dominion.

The gleesome note hath left the throat
Of woodlark, wren and aparro,v ;
And croakings drear assail the ear,
Thro' pathways broad and narrow:
Ev'n Whip -poor -will, whose carping bill
All night. oft times, did boron.
To warmer climbs hath borne his chimeal
To swell the forest chorus.
The tinkling rills, that down the hills
In sunny sheen careering,
Gave Echo's velem a thougand joys
To charm the rambiees hearing.
The Iceking fell, with frigid spelt,
In boreal rigour breathing
Above them all, his snowy pall
With savage ire is wreathing
The little flow'rs that decled the bow'rs,
Are all of bloom divested
And erush,d, and cold. in darksome fold
Their fragile stems lie wasted.
No glowing gales by banks, or dales,
Impart their scented pleasures; -
And all benumb'd, thebees that hummed
Amidst their balmy ti easnres,
From naked boughs, the wildeed Crows
Their hungry plaints are croaking;
Arid snorting hogs amongst the logs
For'savoury beechnuts sneaking.
Squiels. brown and black. with tail o'er back
Are -round the fences risking ;
And brainless fools, on frozen pools
Their useless lives are Asking -
With pious face, and skulking pace,
The sly Racoon is prowling
Where poultry feed on barnyard meed
To ply his craft in fowling 1
Whilst famish'd rats, defying cats,
On pantry viands revel
Midst all this strife, to prop up !life,

TESTIMONIAL TO Dr. TEMPLE.- A. meet-
ing of 'old boys' of Rugby School was held
at Willis's Rooms on the 9th Dec., for the
purpose of promoting steps for presenting
a testimonial to Dr. Temple. The Rev.
E. D. Sandfore, chaplain to the bishop -
elect, .presided. In opening the proceed-
ings he said that Dr. Temple possessed a
wonderful power of sympathy which made
him the friend. ofevery boy in the institu-
tion over which he had_worthily presided.
Besides that, he had taught the world the
lesson of tA'eration ; and they knew it
would be far4nore agreeable to his feelings
that they shoold keep silent at such a time,
believing that the right would ultimately
triumph. Whoever else shoald distrust
him, there were 1,200 'old boys' of Rugby
wno would ever be true to him, and, if
need be would speak un for him They
•
owed to him the blessing of the teaching
and friendship of a loy-al and honorable
man. Mr. Walker moved the first reaolu-
tion : That old Rugbcearis, pupils of Dr.
Temple, wish to marktheir sense of the
services he has rendered to Rugby School
by seine memorial worthy of his name.
Mr. Algernon Butler seconded the resolu-
tion, which was carried unanimously. The
chairman observed that it was. the wish of
Dr. Temple that the testimonial should be
a memorial rather than a present. - The
masters and scholars at Rugby had deter-
mined to present Dr. Temple with his
portrait, independently of any extraneous
assistance. The funds raised itmouated at
the present time to between 2300. ' Mr.
Haines seconded the resolution, and it was
carried unanimously.

A pertinent text was recently preached
by a young. clergyman near Boston, who,

-arises how this large,pirty of Sioux imp-

ments were controlled -by Col. Dennis' or-
ders, for his influence could stop them.
When Col. Dennis claiins he stopped them,
his cause was crushed and he. was a fugi-
tive fleeing to American soil to escape
from the indignation of the insurgents.
This boasted merit of stopping the Sioux
when his personal safety depended on it,
does not at one for the iniquity of setting
them in motion for the'purposes of killing
Americans at Pembina. We hope these
seemingly authentic reports which reach
Pembina of preparations for an Indian
raid may prove untrue. If we could be-

Following up the foregoing comes a fur-
ther telegram, as follows :
"ST. PAUL, MINN:, Jan. 4. -Pembina
letters of the 22nd tiltto the St. Paul
Pioneer, confirm the news'of yesterday re -
garding the arming of Sioux by Canadian'
officers, and says a party of these Indians
were on their way to clean out the revolu-
tionists and plotters at Pembina, when the
arrest of forty-five royalists, near Fort
Gafry, induced Colonel Dennis to turn
them back."
Appended to the above was a note from
our local correspondent. stating that he
would, if possible, obtain Col. Dennis's
own statement, and at a late hour we re-
ceived the telegram below :-
Sr. PAUL, MINN., Jan. 4.
Colnnel Dennis, who remaine.0 behind,
called to -day on General Hancock, who
commands this district. and protested
strongly against any action, being taken by
him, based on the News received from
Pembina yesterday, saying that the report
to the effect that tke Sioux were preparing
to attack the American settlers, is a pure
falsehood, and does not dererve to be
credited. The Collector of Customs from
Pembina also called on General Hancock,
snd presented Itim with a copy of the noti-
fication sent by the American Consul at
Fort Garry to the War Departnient, an-
nouncing the probable attack from the
Sioux. General Hancock will forward
both reports* Washington, and await in-
structions.
Pembina dates of the 22nd ult., say
that the people of St. Joseph and Pembina
are much excited, and are arming and pre-
paring for the trouble from the Sioux.
They believe that unless the United States
Government affords them military protec-
tion, there will be bloody work in the
spring.
ST. PAUL, Minn., Jain 5th.
Mr. Laurie, editor of the Windsor
(Canada) Record, arrived in this city yes-
terday with two companions direet from
Fort Garry, which he left on the 1 lth inst.,
but he brings, very interesting news from
Pembina up to Dec. 26th, in advance of
the mail, having made arrangements to
have the latest -intelligence sent him from
Pembina. We are indebted to him for
important information regarding the result
of the Court-martial held on the political
prisoners at Fort Garry.
The Court sentenced the whole of them
to bantshment from the Territory, except
four prisoners • to wit: Dr. Shultz,
Charles Muir, J. A. Snow,t and Wiliam
Hallet ; the latter a half-breed employed
as a spy by Mr. McDougall's party. What.
is to be tile fate of these four is unknown ;
though,probably, Schultz is held as hestage
for the good behaviour of the Sioux ; aed
it is perhaps not deemed prudent to set
them at liberty for other reasons.
in accordance with this 'sentence there
arrived at Pernbina the day after Cairist-
mas, under a strong guard, 45 prisoners. all
of them Canadians, and comprising nearly
all the Canadia,ns whom curiosity or politi-
cal motives.have recentlylattracted to that
country. They were sent acress the line
and wanted not to return.
Before Governor McDougall left fur
Abercrombie ha received ru rue ars that such
a result was probable.; and he therefore
sent instructions to Pembina to have the
prisoners taken care of and seta through
to !Abercrombie, with pecuniary means to
e,arry these instnictionsinto effect ; and at
Fort Abercrombie he made arrangements
with the sutler at the post to send them
through to St. Paul. • iP
Mr. Laurie was employed while at Red
Raver in the offiee of the Nor' -Wester, and
assisted in issuingthe variousproclamations
th-Canadian interests. He says there
is no foundation whatever for the report-
ed gunpowder plot in Dr. Scjoiltz's house,
and that stories of inciting the Sioux to
the war path rtre equally void of truth.
He says that the politic,a1 prisoners were
not well treated., being poorly supplied
University buildi nga, overlookingthe quiet
little town ot Ithaca.
The students, considering their numbers,
are very quiet and orderly ; I think there
is, no University in the land with as many
students, and so little lawlessness ; with
the exception of an occasional rush be-
tween.the Freshmen and Sophomores, no
collegeiayines are ever violated. In other
Universities we hear of continual strife
and envy between the stUdents and citizens;
bet here, the students respect the citizens
and the citizens respect the students.
The other evening the Sophomores com-
mitted the remains of an old "Trig" to
his final resting place. They %ere all
dressed in long white gowns and black
visors, and presented rather a hideous -ap-
pearance, as they marched about' the
streets in solemn silence to the sound of
the muffled drum. The evening proceed-
ings were ended by a splendid supper, at
which there was neither wine, nor any
manner of strong drmk ; this of itself
shows the morality the students.
Drunkeness invariably punished by ex-
pulsion.
Professor Goldwin Smith is almost idol-
ized ; he 'is the theme of the conversation
or speech, of nearly everybody from Pre-
sident Wai
White,, own to the student who
gets up to make his five minutes speech
in some debating club or literary society.
Protessor James Law, late of the new
Veterinary College Edinburgh, is a man
of great ability, add is complete master of
the Veterinary art. He has the way of
making every student in his class feel that
he ts hie friend. The New York Tribune
has employed him as Veterinary corms -
pendent.
Professor Burt G, Wilder's lectures on
Physiology and Hygiene were very in-
teresting, and instructive; his laws of
Hygiene, I think, are unsurpassed. One
if his lectures, entitled True Temperance,
created quite a sensation amongst the
students, and citizens also. Beholds that
true temperance consists in the raoderate
use of an fermented liquors; diatilledliquors
only to be used as medicines.
I was glad to see that so many of the
students held to the good old principle of
total abstinence from all intoxicating
drinks.
There is quite a fine paper published in
Casca,dilla, called the arrnell Era, edited
by sonie three or four students, it has a
'healthy appearance and is considered one
of the best college papers in the United
States.
Notwithstanding the name which has
gone ont to the world of this Univeraity's
irreligiousness, the .Christian Association
is largely attended 14, the students, a few
of the professors also attend; and Presi
dent White has offered $100 to help fit up
a room in which to hold their meetings.
Promiuent as the Americans are in ai-
m -sting " woman's rights" they seem
determined not to allow them the right
of studying in Cornell University, and
are going about the erection of another es-
tablishment in which the fair sex fire to be
taught practical horticulture and floricul-
ture. Certainly this is a work of superer-
oga' tion ; what more harm can there be
in allowing both sexes to study together
in the University, than in the academy in
town. One young man who had left the
Academy and entered the University, re-
marked ineny hearing that "he did not
know why he could not get on with his
studies now as well as when he was in the
Acadeiny, unless it was because there were
se many faces there to encourage
him on."
Why is it that America, that boasts of
her go-ahead principles is so much behind
the Old World iti this respect I hope
that the day is net far distant, when the
halls of Cornell University will be graeed
by the laireet of the fair. A. M. C.

HAVANA, Jan. 2. -Intense excitement
prevads here in consequence of the an
nouncetnent of the Havana journals. ef
this evening, that the revolution has ti ”-
minated, according to the published st.,: • -
ment. The editors of the journals have
seen a copy of the circular, signed by the
members .of the Cuban Junta, in .New
York, ordering the insurgents to lay down
theirarms-forthe present, giving., asreasors
for the abandonment ot the insurrection,
the failure of the recent fillibustering ex-
peditions and the inability of the Junta to
send more men, and further, the dispa,v
aging ;dation of the American Government
in perthiging the gunboats to sail front
New York. Don Miguel Aldama, of the
Cuban Junta, in this city, communicated
the followipg : The Cuban Junta, of-thia

Press from Havana.atander date of yester-
day, stating that theeditors of the Havana
journals affirm that they had seen a circul-
s.r signed by members of this Junta, .0-
dering the Cubans to lay down then. arms.
Taken in connection with the reports in-
duattionsly circulated of late, both in Hav-
ana and this country, that the patriots are
presenting themselves in large numbers til
the ;Spanish authorities fer pardon, the
above news shows a deep laid and unscru-
pulous scheme to pervert public opinion
respecting the progress of our revolution.

thus hospitably enforced was very impress-
ive. He would draw out a young man in
conversation. and learn what studies he
was deficient in, which were essential to
his success, and then assist him to acquire
she mastery of them. Another most valu-
able way of aiding a young man whom
social dangers threatened, was to make

Mr Laurie and his companions, Thames

Smith and Grand Vicar Thibault will be

besides preventing a world of evils. This
Christian duty of hospitality is too much
neglected by Christians. They lose by'
inhospitality many precious opportunities
of doing good and of getting good. There
is nothing that endears the heart of the
young and of the stranger more than
warm home welcome'from those on whom
they have no claim. It opens the heart's
door wide to receive impressions of good

and onee when sick, had taken him into
horhome and nursed him sith a Mother's

the memory pf those little kindnesses will
