PULASKI. A LtQEVD 0FTH8 AMERICA REYOLVTtOJf. BY CIOROI UPPARS. It was at the battle of Brandywlne that Count Fulaki appeared in all his glory. As he rode, charging there, into the thickest of the battle, he was warrior to look upon but once, and never forget Mounted on a larg. black horse, whose strength and beauty r shape made you forget the p.a.nness of his comparison, Puaski himself, with a form sit feet (.:.!.. : . . .,,,. cnesi ana t.mss or tron, ...... ..-u ... . -vuue uniiorm, mat was seen from afar, relieved by the black clouds of battle. His face, grim with the scars of Foland, was the face of a man who had seen much troubled ured much : wrong, it was stamped witth an expression of abiding melancholy. Rronzed in kue, lighted by largg,black eyes., with the lip darkened by a large moustache, his throat and chin were covered with a heavy beard, while his hair fell in raven masses from beneath his trooper's cap, shielded with a ridge of glittering steel. His hair and beard were of the same hue. The sword that hung by his side, fashioned of temper steel, with a hilt of Iron, was one that a warrior alone conld lift. It was in this array he rode to battle, followed by a band of three hundred mem with faces, burnt with the scorching of a tropical sun, or hardened by northern snows, bore the scars of many a battle. They were mostly Europeans; some Germans, some Inlanders, some deserters from the British army. These were the men to fight. To be taken by the British would be death, and death on the gibbet; , therefore ihey fought their best and fought to their last grasp, rather than mutter a word about "quarter." When they charged it was as one man, their three hundred swords flashing over their heads, against the clouds of battle. They came down upon the enemy in terrible silence, without a word spoken, not even a whisper. You could bear the tramp of their steed, you could hear the rattling of their scabbards, but that was all. Yet when they closed with the British you could hear a noise, like the echo of a hundred hammers, beating the hot iron on rte anvil. You could see Pulaski himself, riding yonder in his white uniform, his black steed rearing aloft, as turning his head over his shoulders he spoke to his men: ''Forwabts, Brcoerm. Fobwarts!" It was but broken German jet they understood it, those three hundred men of sunburnt face, wounds and gashes. With one burst they crashed upon the enemy. For a few momentsthey used their swords and then the ground was covered with dead, while the living enemy scattered in jpauic before their path. It was this battle-day or brandwinc that the count was in his glory. He understood but little English, so he spake what he had to say with the edge of his sword. It was a severe Lexicon but the British soon learned to read it, and to know it, and fear it. All over the field, from yonder Quaker meeting house awsy to the top of Osborne's Hill, the soldiers of the enemy saw I'ulnski come.and learn, ed to know his name by heart. That white uniform, that bronzed visage, that black horse with burnin eve and quivering nostrils, they knew the warrior well; they trembled when they heard him say: "Forwa'-ts, Bmdern, Forwarts!n ' w " e retreat Of Brandywme, j that the Polander was most terrible. It was when fie men of Sullivan badly armed, poorly fed, shabbily clad gave way, step by step, before the overwhelming discip'ine or the British host, that Pulaski looked Ike a battle fiend, mounted on his demon-steed. His cap had fsllen from his brow. His bared head shone in art occasional sunbeam, or gre.n crimson with a flash from the cannon or tifle. His white uniform was rent and staineJ; in fact, from head to foot, he was covered with dust and blood. Siill his right arm was free still it rose xCtci executing a British hireling, when it Tell still his voice was heard, hoarse and husky, but strong in its every tone 'Forwarts, BrudernP He beheld the division of Salli van retreating from the field; he saw the British yonder, stripping their coats from their oacRs in the madness of pursuit He looked to the Sunth for Washington, who was hurrying in the advance, but the American Chief was not in view, Then Pulaski was convulsed.with rage. He rode madly upon the bayonets of the pursuing British, hw sword gathering victim after victim; even there, in front of their whole army, he flung his steed across

i the path of the retreating Americans, he besought them in his broken English, to

turn, to make one more effort; he shouted in boarse tones that the day was not yet lo.it They did not understand his words, but the tones in which he spoke thrilled their blood. The picture, too, standing out from the .clouds of battle a warrior convulsed ! With rsinn rnrrt writh h!nmt l.r.: over the neck of hi. ...! .kiu L. . " eeemed turned to fire, and the muscles of his bron2eJ face wrhh,d ,ike ge nts

""thai picture, I say, filled many a heart

wilh new COurage, nerved many a wound;ed arm for the fii-htarjain. Those retreating men turned, they faced the enemy again like greyhounds at bay bclore the wolf they sprang upon the ncck. of lhe fdeanJ hroU lheinj0WI by one desperate charge. It was at this moment that Washington came rushing on once more to the battle. Those people know but lit;Ie of the American General who call him the American Fabics, that is, a general compounded of prudence and caution, with but a spark of enterprise. American Fabius! When you will show me that the Roman Fabius had a heart of fire, nerves of steel, a soul that hungered for the charge, an enterprise that rushed from the w ills like the Shippack upon an army, like the British at Germantown, or started from ice and snow, like that which lay across the Delaware, upon hordes like those of the Hessians at Trenton then I will lower Washington down into Fabius. This comparison of our heroes, with the barbarian demigods of Rome, only ill us ,rate8 ,he poverly of ,he mni tha, mJe it. Compare Brutus, the assassin of h'uj friend, with Washington, the Savior of the people I Cicero, the opponent of Calaline with Henry, the Champion of a continent! What beggary of thought ! Let us laarn to be a little independent, to know our great men, as they were, not by comparison with barbarian heroes of old Rome. Let us learn that Washington was no negative thing, but all chivalry and genius. It was in the buttle of Brandy wine that this truth was made plain. He came rushing on to battle. He beheld his men hewn down by the British; he heard them shriek his name, and regardless of his per sonal safety, he rushes to join them. Yes, it was in the dread havoc of that retreat that Washington, rushing forward in the very centre of the mel ee, was entangled in the enemy's troops, on the top of a high hill, south-west of the MeetingHouse, while Pulaski was sweeping on with his grim smile, ti have one more bout with the eager red coats. Washington was in terrible danser i his troops were rushing to the south the British troopers came sweeping up the hill and around him while Pulaski, on a hill some hundred yards distant, was scattering a parting blessing among the hordes of Hanover. It was a glorious piize, this Mistbr Washington, in the heart of the British army. Suddenly the Polander turned his eye caught the sight of the iron grey end his rider. He turned to his troopers, his whiskered lip wreathed with a gtim smile he waved his sword he pointed to the iron grey and its rider. There was but one moment. With one impulse that iron band wheeled their war horses, and then a dark bvdyt solid and compact, was speeding over the valley like a thnuderbolt, sped from the heavens three hundred swords rose glittering in a faint glimpse of sunlight and in front of the avalanche, with his form raised to its full height, a dark frown on his brow, a fierce smile on his lip, rode Pulaski. Like a spirit roused into life, by the thunderbo't, he rode his eyes were fised upon tne iron grey and its rider his band had but one look, one ill, one shout for Washisgtos I The British troopers had encircled the American leader already they felt secure of their prey already the head of that traitor, Washington, seemtd to yawn above the gates of London. But that trembling of the earth in the valley, y nder. What means it? That terrible beating of hoofs, what does it portend? That ominous silence and now that shout uot of words or of names, but that half yell, half hurrah, which shrieks from the Iron Men, ts they scent their prey? What means it all? Pulaski is on our track! The terror of the British army is in our wake I Anion he came, he art 1 his gtllant band. A moment and he had awept over the Britisher crushsi mangled, dea

and dying they strewed the green sod he had passed over the hill, he had passed the form of Washington. Another moment I And the iron band had wheeled back in the same career of death they came! Routed, defeated, crushed, the red coats flee from the hill, while the iron band sweep round the form of George Washington they encircle him with their forms of oak, their swords of steel the shout of his name shrieks through the air, and away to the American host they bear him in all a soldier's battle joy. It was at Savannah that night came down upon Pulaski. Yes, I see him now, under the gloom of night, riding forward towards yonder ramparts, his black steed rearing aloft, while two hundred of his own men follow at his back. Right on, neither looking to the right or left, he rides, his eye fixed upon the cannon of the British, his sword gleaming over his head. For the last time they heard that warcry "Forwarts, Brudern, forwarts'-" Then they saw that black horse, plunging forward, his fore feet resting on the cannon of the enemy, while his warriorrider arose in all the pride of his form, his face bathed in a flush of red light. The flash once gone, they saw Pulaski no more. But they found him, yes beneath the enemyVj cannon, crushed by the same gun that killed his steed yes, they found them, the horse and rider, resting together in death, that noble face glaring in the midnight sky with glassy eye. So in his glory he died. He died while America and Poland were yet in chains. He died in the stout hope that both, woull one day, be free. With regard to America, his hope has been fulfilled, but Poland Tell me, shall not the day come, when yonder monument erected by those warm Southern hearts, near Savannahwill yield up its dead? For Poland will be free at last, as sure as God is just, as sure as he governs the the Universe. Then, when re-created Poland rears her eagle aloft again, among the banners of nations, will her children come to Savannah, to gather up the ashes

of their hero, and bear him home, with the chaunt of priests, with the thunder of cannon, with the tears of millions, even asrepentjut Ftuncebore home her own Napoleaa. Yes, the day is coming when Kosciusco and Pulaski will sleep side by side, beneath the soil of Re-created Poland. The Female Heart. There is nothing under heaven so delicious as the possession of pure, fresh, immutahle affection. The most felicitous moment of man's life, the most eeiaiic of all his emotions and sympathies, is that in which he receives an avowal of affection from the idol of his heart. The springs of feeling, when in their youthful purity, are fountains of unsealed and gushing tenderness the spell that at once draws them forth is the mystic li?!it of future years and undying memory. Nothing in life is so pure and devoted, as a woman's love. It matters not, whether it be for a hausband.or child, or sister, or brother, it is the same pure unquenchable flame, the same constant and immaculate glow of feeling, whose undeniable touchstone is trial. Do but give her one token of lure, one kind word, one gentle look, even if it be amid desolation and death the feelings of that faithful heart will guh forth as a torrent, in despite of earthly bond or mercenary tie. More priceless than the gems of Golcond. is the female heart; and more devoted than the idolatry of Mecca is woman's Love. There is no sordid view, or qualifying self-interest in the feeling. It is a principal and characteristic of her nature a faculty and infatuation which absorbs and concentrates all the fervor of her soul, and all the depths of her bosom. I would rather be the idol of one unsullied and unpracticed heart than the monarch of empires. I would rather possess the immaculate and impassioned devotion of one high-souled A enthusiastic woman than the sycophantic fawning of millions. Frmness of Character, There is no trait in the human character so protential for the weal or woe as firmness of purpose It is wonderful to see what miracles a reaoliite and unyielding spirit will achieve. Before its irresistible energy the most formidale obstacles become as cobweb barriers in its p th. Difficulties, the terrors of which cause the pampered sons of luxury to shrink back "ith dismay provoke from the man of lofty determination only a ini!e. The whole history of our race all nauue.indeed, teems with examples to show what wonders may be accomplished by resolute perseverance and patent tefl.

No Faculty. . '1 shall never be anything.' You know better. Are there more obstacles in your path than in the paths of others? What hinders you Irom rising? 'I haven't the faculty.' Nonesense! Are you a natural fool? If so, you may well hide yourhead from human society and spend your days in playing with straws and tin trumpets. But it is not so; you are a man stout, strong and healthy. Yott have the physical power to become what you please. Open your heart to the fires of energy; let the sparks of ambition play around it, and you wili not long remain silting on a rotten stump, surrounded by cob-webs and musquitoes. You have the same faculty as hundreds of others.who rose from their degradation burst the bonds of ignorance nnd sloth, and became eminent in the world. The brightest geniuses the world ever saw, would have died fn iaypers hovel and been buried Vt the expense of the public, had they sank under their early discouragement and suffered ihHr 7eal to staguato and their power, nf mind to lie dormant. Many a gifted man has died in want and poverty, without blessing the world, because, forsooth he was discourage and thought he had no faculty to rise and overcome the difficulties in his path. Thousands have thus ijnob'y perished.

And yoit have no faculty? Shame on you stout and able-bodied as you are. With a wife and a pair of children on your hands, it is provoking to see you lie still, or only move along to the tune of fifty cents r day, when you could earn four time that amount and mak your family comfortable. No matter if you are in debt and called upon everyday of the week for payment? So much more reason have you to exert yourself and tnaAe the faculty you think you lack. Energy and determination will work wonders in less then three months. It will raise you from dust to glory from earth to Heaven. You can look every man full in the face w ithout a siah or a b!u-h , and more than all, feel a happiness within that is nvire valuable than a crown. Let us hear, then, no mare about your lack of faculty; if we do, we shall at once set you down as a drone, and treat you as such till you Bre completely routed out. Sterling .Va.ri'm.. Never be Cast dow it with triflles. If a spider breaks his thread tvventv times, twenty limes will he mend it again. Make up your mind to do a thing and you will surely do it. Fear not, if trouble come upon you; keep up your spirits, though the day be n dark one. If the sun goes down, look up at th stars; if the earth is dark, keep your eyes on Heaven With God's presence, and God's promise, a manor child may be cheerful. Fight hard against a hasiy temper. Anger will come, but resist it stoutly. A spark may set a house on fire. A fit of passion may give you cause to mourn all the days of your life. Never revenge an injury. If you have an enemy.act kindly lo him and make him your friend. You may not win him at once but try again. Let one kindness be followed by another, till you have compassed your end. By little, and little, great things are completed. And so repeated kindness will wear away a heart of stone. Whatevej you do, do it willingly. A man that is compelled to work, cares not how badly it is performed. iu uiongnis are worse enemies man lions and tigers: for we ran keep out of the way of wild beasts, but bad thoughts win their way every where. The cup that is full will hold no morejkr pp your heads and hearts fi ll of good thoughts, that bad thoughts may find no room to enter. Superior Made nf Curing Hams. Agreeable to your request, I herewith send you the process of curing the hams I sent you in March, which recently called forth the admiration of the Amer.can Agricultural Associatiation, and the Former's Club, at New York. I made a pickle of two quarts of salt, to which I added one ounce of summer scvory, one ditto all-spire, half ditto sa'tpetre, and one pound brown sugar; boiled the whole together and applied the mixture boiling hot, to one hundred pounds of ham, and kept the'pickle three or four weeks. My process of smoking was not the most expensive, but may not be the less available on thu account. I smoked the hams in a seed cask, with one head in, with a small hole for the smoke to pass out, hung my hams to the head, and used nuum a pel. iv tu iitanog in y sawuusl lur j U . I. . r 1 1 . r fuel, which 1 happened t have on hand j for packing goods. I smoked them but onewee k. An. Ag luultuiut.

Things that t Doubt. I doutrf the pro

priety of a pretty girl's making a fuss about a kiss when she is almost dying for another. I doubt the existence of such a thin j as honesty in politicians. I doubt the utility of ladies painting their lipa, it's so very inconvenient to gentlemen. I doubt that specie is a plenty as it ought is be. I doubt whether this passage is in Aristotle, 'hoppete kickete corum hie, hac, com tickle me.' I doubt whether this is good grammar 'nobody din'nt see nothing of no hat nor nothing no where about here as nobody knows on did there.' I doubt whether Decamp-abscondisqua-tils-loco-swart-jubalised is in Johnson's Dictionary. What is a Kiss. A. kiss is, as it were, V ial.evpressi'ogour sincere thanks the fiS?.of fuvure liiiW a dua.b.but audible language of a loving heart a present which, at the time it is given, is taken from us the impress of an ardent passion; an ivory coral press.a crimson balsam for a lov;-wout:d; a sweet bile of the lip; an affectionate pincbi'i of the mouth, a delicious dish, which is eaten with scarlet spoons: a sweetmeat, which does not satisfy our hunger; fruit which is planted an 1 gathered at the same moment; the quickest exchange of question and answers of two lovers; the fourth degree of love. The Creation. What an inextricable confusion must the world have been in but for the variety which we find in the face and writing of men! No security of person, o r possession; no justice between men; no distinction between good nnd bad, friends and foes, father and child husband and wife, male and female. All would have been exposed to malice, fraud, forgery and lust. Cut now, eveiy man's face can distinguish him in the light, his voice in the dark, and his writing can speak for him: though absent and be his witness to all generations. Did all this happen by chance? Ileary Postage. A present of a very heavy cheese was sent from Connecticut to the worthy Post Master General, but instead of being sent as a package by the agency, some mischievious person sent it by mail. the postage on which was $120. The Post Master General declined receiving tha preseut, and it has been sent as usual to the Dead letter ofSce. Monlieys. The monkeys in Exeter Change used to be confined in aline of narrow cages, each of which had a pan in the center for its tenant's food. Chancing to be present one evening at snpper time, we observed that when all the monkeys were supplied with messes, scarcely any one of them ate out of his own pan. each thrust his arm through the bars, and rob!ed hie right or left hand neighbir. Half of what was seized was spilt and lost in the conveyance.an l while one monkey wasso unprofitably employed in plundering, his ownpanwas exposed to similar depredations. The mingled knavery and absurdity was shockingly human. Had a monkey reviewer however, admonished the tribe of the agjreg ale loss to the animal stomach, and beseecbed them to commence the reform of honesty each for himself, what monkey would have had sufficient reliance on his neighbor's honesty lo commence the virtue of forbearance? Placing the cases more apart seemed the more rational scheme f reform. Gettins rid of False Fried3.
