Alexander Ypsilanti.
[From the German of Wilhelm Muller.]
Alexander Ypsilantisate in Muneac’s lofty tower,
And the casement rattled in the wind that stormy inidnight hour,
O’er the troubled face of moon and stars black train
of clouds swept by,
And the ( reek prince sighed: “Alas, that I a captive
here must lie !”
On the far-off south norizon sadly gazing, see him
stand :-—
“Were I sleeping in thy dust now, my beloved Fatherland !”
And he flung the window open—'twas a dreary scene
to view—
Crows were swarming in the lowlands; round the cliff
the eagle flew.
And the prince began to sigh again:—‘Comes none
good news to tell
From the country of my fathers ?”—and his heavy
lashes fell—
Was't tears, or was't with slamber ?7—and_ his
head sank on his hand.
with
See, his face is growing brighter—dreams he of his native land ‘—
So he sate, and to the sleeper came a slender armed
man,
Who, with earnest gladness gazing on the sad dne,
thus began :—
“Alexander Ypsilanti, cheer thy heart, lift up thy head!
In the narrow, rocky defile, where my blood was freely shed,
Where the ashes of three hundred patriot Spartans
found one grave,
Grecian Freedom's banners once again victoriously
wave.
This giad message to deliver was my spirit sent to
thee;
Alexander Yy sil
i, Hellas’ holy land is free !”
Then awoke the prince from slumber, and in cestacy
he eres ;
“Twas Leondas!” while tears of joy are streaming
from his eyes.
Hark ! above his head a rustling—and a kingly eagle
flies
From the window, and in moonlight, speads his pinions to the
Tue Bravest Man at WaTERLOO.—
A bequest similar to the “Jackson Gold
Snuutf-Box” was once made in England
by a gentleman, who left a sword, to be
given to the “bravest man at Waterloo.”
It was referred to the Duke of Wellington to decide to whom the sword should
be given. The Duke would not say
who the brarest where a/l were was
the most severely tried on that memorable day were those who defended the
position of the chateau Hongoumont, and
that inquiry should be made regarding
those who fought at that point. This
was done, and the award was _ finally
madeto a British who, at a
French had
unexpectedly forced open the gate of
the chateau and were about to enter,
rushed forward, and, by the exertion of
great personal strength and determination, succeeded alone in shutting the
gate in the face of the French troops,
and holding it till his comrades :ame to
his assistance.— New York Post.
Gioomy Proseect.— The New York
Tribune predicts that by the first or middle of next December, ai teast one hun.
dred thousand persons in the city of New
York will be out of employment and
sergeant,
in New York are nearly idle, the foundaries but half working, and the great
clothing stores doing very little. It is
stated that women have recently come
to New York from places three hundred
iniles away in quest of work from the
clothing stores, only to be turned off}
with none and compelled to beg their
way home again. The Tribune adds
that places have looked tor servant girls
tor seme time past; soon servant girls
will look earnestly for places, and be
very glad to findthem. It is predicted .
that soup houses for hungry laborers
whe ean find no labor will be wanted
before January. The Journal of Com.
merce is of opinion that hardly, since
1837, has so gloomy a prospect for winter lowered upon the laboring classes of
New ork.
Tue Fane Fasuions.—The editor of rate, honoratle and jovial governor, and .
the Auburn American says gentlemen's may sometimes be seen in a flat-boat on .
fashions will not be 1auch changed.—
Gentlemen will continue to wear * Chapeau hatte ala bonnette; stocks and
crayvatte of silk and satine ; collaare of

Conclusion of the Honey Lake War.— .
Further accounts from Honey Lake
Valley bring the gratifying intelligence
that the Indian disturbances in that
quarter have been brought to a close,
and that amicable relations are being
restored between the settlers and the
Indians. The fight which was going on .
at the date of our last advices resulted
in the defeat of the Indians, and they
were then induced to make terms of
peace. ‘The distribution of the blankets .
and other articles taken up by Mr. Las.

of the Valley, at least forthe present.— .

REVULSIoN OF 1837—'40.—The last
great financial revulsions began in 1837
with the suspension of the United States
Bank and all the State banks, and ended in 1840 with the explosion of the
Manhattan Bank, the very one that beganthe war Within those years 30,000 houses broke, and took the benefits
of the-bankrupt law of 1841. Their
debts amounted to $400,000,000—their
assets to almost nothing.

A CuAPTER ON F. DDLEBAGGERs.—It
is curious to think how little # generally
known of the ancient order of Fiddlebaggers. Wehear of Free Masous, Odd
Fellows, Friendly Brothers, and a thousand other societies. but the ancient order of Fiddlebagges appears (although
not a secret society) to be almost less
known than those orders whose secrecy
is sealed with an oath, and whose laws
have lain for centuries
“In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.”
There can be no doubt in the world,
however, of the antiquity of this order,
as it ean be easily shown that Tubal
Cain was the head Fiddlebagger among
the ancients, having been, as we all
know. the first musical instrument maker
in the world, and consequently the original maestro of the Fiddlebaggers.
The order is neither numerically nor
professionally limited. For instance,
there are Ecclesiastical Fiddlebaggers,
Historical Fiddlebageers, Medical Fiddlebaggers, Poetical Fiddlebhageers, Aldern anic Fiddlelbaggers, Metropolitan
Fiddlebaggers, and though
least, Judicial and Legal tiddlebaggers,
besides a host of others far tou numerous
tu mention.
The sceciety also claims amongst its
members some of the most distinguished
men of all ages, such for example as

Tue Secretary of the Interior reeently submitted to the Attorney General
the question, whether the practice heretofore prevailing in the Pension Office
of allowing the children ef revolutionary soldiers to receive the pensions
{which their deceased parents had received, was according to law. The Attorney General has rendered his opinjion, declaring that the praetice has no
