LIGHT OF HOME. BY THOMAS BfCHANAN SIAD. Oh, thou whose beauty on u* beam# With glitnsesof celestial light; Thou halo of our working dreams, And early star that crowns our night: Thy light is magic where it falls; To the deepest shadow yields; Thou bring 'st unto these dreary halls The lustre of tha summer field*. There is a freedom in thy looks To make the prisoned heart rejoice; In thy blue eyes I see the brooks, And heartheir music in thy voice. And every sweetest bird that sings Hath poured a charm upon thy tongue; And where the bee enamored clings, There surely thou in love hast clung. For when I hear thy laughter free, And see thy morning lighted hair, As in a dream at once I see Fair upland realms and valleys fair. I sec thy feet empearled with dews, The violet’s and lilly’s loss: And when the waiving woodland wooe, Thou lead's! me over beds of moss: And by the busy runnel’s side, Whose waters, like a bird, afraid. Dart from their front, and flashing glide Athwart the sunshine and the s«de. Or larger streams our steps beguile, We see the cascade broad and fair, Dashed headlong down to foam, the while Its iris-spirit leap s to air! Life in Cuba. A Havana correspondent of the New York Times gives the following account of some of the national amusements of the Cubans: Cock-fighting seems to be the favorite sport with the Cuban. I visited the ' Valla,' wheie 1 saw the heaviest gambling. The Marquis de Almendarcs pitted a favorite bird with a celebrated Vuelba Abajo cock, for the sura of 810,000! The fight was over in about five minutes, and resulted favorably for the Marquis. 1 noticed that the Captain General, his wife and children, also took part in the betting and won some hundreds of dollars. A friend at my side told me that more than 850,000 had changed hands on this one fight! The Marquis de Almendars is one of our most celebrated cock-fighters, and keeps a great number of ‘game birds.’— It was very amusing to see how carefully they were brought to the pit, wrapped up in silk handkerchiefs. I dare say he takes more care of his chickens than he does of his slaves. A grand ball was given at this gentleman's house last night, and I went to see the dancing and ‘monte.’ I afterwards understood that it was no great distinction to be invited, as the principle object of the 'reunion' was to enliven the tables of the ‘monte’ players. His excellency and' many of the principal iristocratic families of Havana were present. After the small hours had announced the departure of our Governor, the ladies and gentlemen flocked around the ‘monte’ tables with a ‘ffusto’ peculiar to old hands. Young Count F ain my presence won 817,000 in a very short time. I am sorry to say, some of our most beautiful and accomplished Senorites took an active part in the gambling. Gambling is a national vice here, indulged by all classes. The poor are generally hotly pursued by the police, but the rich find away of being permitted to break the laws. We heard of a Yankee, (we do not mean one of those whining and guesting specimens from the eastern states) who was at a theatre in Montreal, when the ochestra struck up the tune, God save the Queen. As is customary the audience all took off their hats, except the yankee, as a token of respect to queen vic. A police officer noticing the yankee’s hat on, came to him, when the following dialogue ensued: Officer—Take your hat off. Yankee—What for? Off—Don't you bear the orchestra playing that air? Yan—Yes, what of it* Off—That’s God save the queen. Yan—The h-1 it is! Off—Take off your hat. Yan—What for? Off—Out of respect to the queen and the tune. Yan I care nothing about the queen nor the tune. Off—Take off your hat or I’ll knock it off. Yan—(rising slowly and indignantly.) See here, Mr. Officer, I shall not do it, and if you attempt to knock my hat off, I'll cut a regular old fashioned fourth of July over your eye. Love with out money is like pstvnit keetbvr boots witbeut aolea. •• ’ I

Cowhiding Affair. A merchant in New York, was cowhidedata fashionable boarding house in that city, a few days since, by a California widow. It appears that there were some sixty boarders in the house, including merchants with their families, clerks, and the charming California widow. One of the merchant boarders put into circulation unpleasant reports about the fair widow, when she determined to cowhide him, and communicated her intention to some of her friends in the house, together witlrthe dav and time. The place fixed upon was the dinner table. After some fifty of the boardes had been seated at the table, the widow approached the merchant and demanded, before the company, a retraction of the scandalous reports he had circulated, and an apology. This he declined, when she drew from the folds of her dress a strong cowhide, which she applied with a will to his head and shoulders. So severe were the blows that his face was completely marked lengthwise and crosswise with red lines. Some of the ladies screamed and were sorely agitated, and many of the gentlemen remonstrated, but the lady paid no attention, but still dealt her blows vigorously upon the head of the offending merchant. At length one of the gentlemen intefered and wrested the cowhide from her hand. The victim was removed to bis room, where he was confined several days in consequence of the mutilation of his physiogray.

Pat Purdy’s Coat. ‘One of the byes on the jab’ stole Pal, Purdy’s coat. Pat had Intn arraigned ' before a justices ‘coort’ for ‘stalin,’ The' justice said—‘Pat how do you know that, to be your coat.’ Is it how do I know me own coat, yer worship? Is it how do I' know the coat, the dirty thavin black«uard stole before me own eves, and in o • spite o’ me own nose, ■ bad scran to him and all the likes of him? Is it how do I know? A purty question for a gentleman like you to be axing an intelligent Irishman like meself—A citizen of Araeriky too! Sure bow does a blind pig know its own mudher when she spakes to it? How does a young duck know it can swhweem wid out iver bein’ in the water at all, at all? How does a man know when the hunger overtakes him? How does yer honor know when yer honor is dry—long life till yer honor? Will yer honor pleas to lind me yer iiligant knife a minit? The justice handed Pat his knife when be took it and cut a hole in the lining of the coat and took out two peas about the size of a buckshot, each, and holding them up with an air of triumph he again addressed the court: ‘ls it how do I know me own coat? Does yer honor see them I two small payJ Will you mind now?—■ Me name is Pat Purdy; and here’s ona , pay and that stands for Pat; and there is | the other pay and that stands for Purdy; ■ and the two pays sewed in me coat stands for Pat Purdy. Is it how do I know me own coat? nr -- — ■ A Spunky American Girl ; According to a buffalo paper, some two or three weeks ago several deserters from the British troops stationed at Kingston, Canada, made their way across oolf Island and the St. Lawrence to the United States. Some of them were badly frozen on the way, and were taken in and cared for by Mr. Pluehes, on Carlton Island, within the jurisdiction of the United Slates, On the 29th of January a British officer with a file of men, came upon the Island and endeavored to capture them. Mr. Pinches with one of his men was absent. Another man was chopping wood at the door, and Mrs. Pluehes and two daughters were in the house. The women sent the man for’ Mr. Pluehes, and soon afterwards the officers ordered the deserters to be brought out. Five soldiers rushed into the house but the others were prevented from enI tering by the eldest daughter, who dashled the fifth mar- back as he entered, and .and he rolled upon the ground outside. ■She then closed the door and locked it, and taking her position before it, declared that if the four who were lelt inside took the deserters out, they won Id have topass o»er her dead body. By this time Mr. Pluehes and his men were seen returning, and the officer out doors cal- 1 led for his men to come out and run.— The thing was easier said than done, however, as the girl mantained her position, and it was only on a solemn prom-' ise being given by them to respect the laws of the United States in future, that the imprisoned soldiers were released, and with their officer allowed to beat a retreat
