Spiritual Presonces.
BY RICHARD 8. JAMES.
“ Our intercourse and communion with them
has not ceased. Rather let us feel that they
are nearer to us-that they hover o’er our path
——that they are with us in the night watches,
and in the day-spring-messengers of peace
and love.”—Letter of a bereaved Mother.
When loved ones from our circle go,
At dea.th’s command, how sweet to know—-
How cheering ’tis to faith-
That our communion doth not cease ;
But, messengers of love and peace,
They haunt our path.
And now methinks I often hear
Sweet voices in the listening air,
Like broken strains of song-—
A brother and 9. sister blest,
Seem whispering from their place of rest,-—
“ Brother be strong.”
When floods of grief around me pour,
That they, the loved ones, move no more
Terrestrial scenes among,
and cypress flowers my heart enwreathe,
0, then those angel voices breathe,-
“ Brother be strong.”
As through the busy streets I press,
Doubts, troubles, cares and deep distress,
The weary hours prolong;
0, how revived I am, as oft
Come those same whiaperings, low and soft,
" Brother be strong.”
At evening’: social hour I hie
To a. friend’s hear-th——from eye to eye,
Joy, glistening, floats along;
But in the laugh I join with pain,
Until those loved ones breathe again,
“ Brother be strong.”
When midnight waves her sombre wings,
And s1umber’s deep imaginings, .
My restless pillow throng ;
Two air-clad spirits kiss my cheek,
And smiling to my spirit sneak-
“Brother be strong."
Oft, as in an unguarded hour,
The tcmpter’s dark insidious power
Would lure my heart to wrong;
Those guardian angels flutter nigh.
To shield me, while they softly sigh,
“Brother be strong.” _
Yes, loved ones! though 9. cheerless maze
Obscure life’a path; I'll firmly face
The foes that round it throng;
Nor quail the final foe before,
But joining your flight celeltial, soar,
Blood-washed and strong.

er as we had last week, writes as follows:
“The pavements are all hissing hot, the sky
above is brazen,
And every head’s as good as dead, the sun can.

The lean, lauk, walking skeletons, go ata.1klng_

The fat, like red hot frying pans, send hotter

From the Knickerbocker allagazine.
“ A Provnising Young Man.”
'AN AUTO-BIOGRAPIIIW
[Tun following extraordinary history is said
to have been found recently in the corner of an
old rickety shed, near the steamb'oa.t-landing in_
the city of Buffalo. A small pile of straw, it
few herring-bones, and potato-pariugs, indica-
ting thut some person had found a night’s lod-
ging there, and 9. manuscript containing this
history, were all that proclaimed the occupant
of the desolate premises. The ma.nuscript was
indistinct, and difiicult to decipher, having ev-
idently been written with a very trembling
band. The wrifer’s nervous system must have’
been completely shattered by intemperance.]_
“I was left an orphan and poor, at a
very early age,but being esteemed a boy’
of good parts, the friends of my parents
obtained for me a good school education,
and I was received into college as a char-‘
ity-scholar. I graduated when I was
twenty with a reputation for decided
“smartness." More democracy prevails
among students in college than, in the
world "at. large. Young men, generally,
do not have the disposition or feel
the necessity to " crook the preg-
nant hinges of the knee where thrift."
may follow f'awning;” and the unreflec
ing generosity of youth prompts students‘
to do more than justice, perhaps, to their
poor companions. Be this as it may,
was a good deal flattered in my college
career, and was led to form too great ex-
pectations in consequence. I was foolish
enough then to believe that wit was a
positive quality. I afterwards discover-
ed that it was no such thing; that it. was
merely relative. It was necessary that‘
certain other subordinate qualities should
accompany it, in order to have it higlily
prixed. Like a. diamond, its brillihncy
was not perceptible unless it was highly’-
polished, and richly set in gold. ‘
"The professor: of the college were in-
terested in me, and offered to procure me
a situation as teacher of a school, with a
salmry of one thousand dollars a year. I
determined to study law, and had every
expectation that I might become «judge
at least, by the time I was twenty-five.
I had read of the high positions that ma-
early age, and saw no reason why I
might not. The professors, who very
easily understood my feelings, did not
urge the matter, no doubt thinkingit best
that the conceit should be taken out of
me in the natural way.
“Well, I studied law, went to Phila-
delphia. hung out my sign, ready to cgm.
menco practice. But my own exper-'1-
ence, taken in connection with that of 1-.
good many other young lawyer's soon‘
convinced me that waiting for clients
was very much like waiting for the mil-
ieninm. \Vl1at often happips to young
law crs, occurred to me. ailino to of‘:-
tainypractice at that bit which repclenish--
as the pocket, strengt ens the mind. and?
brings influence and honor, I practised
too much at flint. other but which emp-
ties the pockets, destroys the mind, body“
reputation. and all. I became reduced
to the most extreme poverty, and was
obliged to seek some other employment,
ny distinguished men, had attained at an. .
ii
or starve. ' The question-at once-arose,
<C_?
experience in mercantile life, wrote a
miserable hand, and was every way un-
fitted for a clerk. My dissipated habits,
which my whole appearance too plainly
proclaimed, were not calculated to throw
any particular prepossession in my favor
with those of whom I sought a situation
It was very evident that I must not be
over-nice about the employment I might
obtain. .
“There wasa billiard-room adjoining
the bar--room where much of my time and
money were spent. Aftenu long and
successful search for almost any thing to
do, my small supply of money-being en-
tirely exhausted, I got a temporary situ-
ation as billiard-marker in, this saloon.—
This was suhighly responsible and Intel-
lectual office, but notwithstanding the
great amount of intellect required to dis-
chargé the 1 duties faithfully, it seemed
that 1 had not sufficient capacity for -the
situation; I could not confine my atten-
tion to ther,-‘game, but my thoughts were
constantly running off to something else.
Tl1c consequence was, I was accused of
partiality, dishonesty, etc. Fights ensued;
and such a state of things could not last.
I was discharged, and forced to seek some
new employment, or starve. I had long
had misgivings aboutpossessing any lat-
ent natural qualifications as a billiard-
marker, and doubted if by long practice
I could ever hope to attain to any partic-
ular preeminence in the callinv.
“My efforts to procure employment
again were more unsuccessful than at
first. I applied for the situation of clerk
to a lawyer, but on ascertaining that the
duties of billiard-marker bad prov_ed‘to in-
tricate and burdensome for me, he face-
tiously remarked that if I found mv for-
mer employment too metaphysical, he
should distrust my abilities for the work
he require of me. ' -
“I at last obtained a situation in a sta-
ble; slept there nights, and cleaned hor-
ses through the day. Some skill in
the management of horses procured
for me the charge of a superb stai-
lion, which for one season I attend-
ed upon his circuit. An unfortunate
accident deprived me of this delicate and
confidential trust. On a certain-occasion
as I was leading the ‘noble animal, from
the stable, he broke away from me, slip-
ped, fell; and broke his leg. '-
“This was a.sad blow. Most of my
employer's property was invested in him
and his domestic affections centered up-
on him.‘ It was said that he was.more
attached to him than to his wife and
children, "and those‘ who were acquaint-
ed with all the parties had no doubt on
the subject. I-lis indignation against me
(the innocent cause) was very great..----
After using the most abusive language
toward me, be discharged me without
paying any of the arrears which were my
due. I was again cast upon the world
without a shilling, and no stable to sleep
"For a week or "more I was a vaga-
boud about the-‘streets of thetown, ob-
taining a precarious sort of support by
occasional jobs -of work. Sometimes'I
procured a lodging under a roof, but of-
tener in the open air. On one occasion,
when I had -fond a comfortable resting-
place by the side ofa large tent which
inclosed a caravan, and after I had bee
asleep some time, I was suddenly awa
kened by feeling some one apparently
endeavoring to pick my pockets. The
first emotion‘ I experienced was one of
consolatioh, for the fact of some one try-
ing to rob me suggested the‘ idea of deg-
radation still lower than my own. But
when I discovered that it was not a hu-
man being, this feeling vanished.
“It appeared that a monkey had esca-
ped from his cage,‘ and was trying to re.-
lieve my pockets of the orange-peel I
had picked up in -the street, and had
thrust into them. I now captured him,
and fastened -hipm to a stake. In the
morning, I took him to the proprietor of
the menagerie. To make the acquain-
tance'of a man through the introduction
of a monkey, does not certainly‘ strike
one as the most. favorable auspices under-
which ‘an acquaintance might be com-
menced, but I thougbrnothing of that.
My only apprehension was, that the mo.n-
key mightbe asbn1'ned‘of his company.
But he was not, and his owner was so-
glad to recover him that he gave me a
dollar for my trouble.
“Noticing my" forlorn appearance, he
asked me if Idid not want to ‘let myself’.
I replied at once in the affirmative.‘ He
then said he wanted to get a mate for _the~.
ourang-outang he had, and that if I would
consent to be covered all over with hair,
andmade to resemble as nearly as possi-
1 . ble an ourang-outang, he would pay me‘
- liberally. Giving me a scrutinizing glance
he ‘ remarked that the change would be
attended with less trouble than I antici-
pated, as the transformation was already
partly effected.‘ I was afraid to ask him
whether he had reference to my mental
or physical endowments, but rather hes-
the latter. -The‘ nature of the employ-
ment. did not impress me very favorably,
burl was :by; no means fastidious, and
gladly"accepted the proposed offer. Al-
though at that time I ' did not esteem
myself a very superior animal to the on-
raug outang, it yet required a good deal
of labor to render me a fit companion for
my future "chum.” By dim. of ‘great pa-
‘-tience and unwearied exertions, I was
«deemed arlast to resemble quite nearly
my ‘more renowned prototypt; and: I
was place by his side in the cage, ready
for‘ exhibition‘ with the other animals.
"1 nevér ”w’a'sa proud rnamand there-
='fore felt no particular elevationcf spirits
'-even at this time. I forbeat to mention
-my experience when on exhibition. Al-
“ most. every one -has visiteda menagerie,
:and knows what respectful and indulgent
itreatment monkeys, ourang-outangs, et.c.,
‘receive from oven Vagabond-boys, and
.!".he multitude generally. It was, howev-
--er,.too exciting a life for me ; I lost twen-
'-ty pounds of flesh in-a short time ; my
..health failed me, and I was obliged to
give up the business, although it proved
the lnost lucrative of any in which I had
ev or been engaged. ~ . ,

. losopber was lecturing upon the origin

“What.I was-fit for'.",' I had, had no-
’ common to the human family.
itntingly' flattered myself that he meant‘
on-exhibition in the city, I resolved to
goaandzhear him. ’ He drew large audi.
ences and was looked upon as a "new
light.” . Some of his assertions, howev.
er, his audience seemed toregard as very
paradoxical; one, in particular, I recol-
lect; that he had no doubt that in ten
generations even, the offspring of such
an animal as myself. great pains being
taken with their cultivation and improve-
ment, would possess most of the attribjutes
his
opinion was highly cheering to me, and I
could hardly repress my exultation. He
dwelt at considerable len th on the faint
pqiuts of resemblance I ad to man. ob-
servin , however, that my eye was great-
ly _ iufgerior to-that of the human eye.-—
The particular inferiority in this feature
he "said, waspeasily accounted for. The
eye was considered the window of the
soul, and as ourang-outangs were not
supposed to have any soul, hence the dull
andstupid look mine possessed.
(‘This reflection upon the expression
hardly refrain from getting up and expo-
sing him. But. I soon though: that an
ouraug-outang was out of place, speak-
ing in public, and held my peace.
“When the lecture was over, and the
audience had gone, 1 went up to the lee-
turer, and in rather a consequential and
imposing manner said :
" ‘Well, Sir, you have made outa fine
case, truly!”
'°Eine case! how sir‘!
derstand you !”
"lpxvill explain, Sir,’ replied I. ‘and I
think after you have heard my explana-
tion. you will have a very exalted opin-
ion of your philosophy. You must know
Sir, that I" personnted that ourang-ou-
tong‘ whose attributes you have so elo-
quently descanted upon this evening...-
Yes, Sir." raising my voice. as he seem-
ed to be__ unmoved by the announcement’
,“I'rr_r‘;z/self was that ourang-outang !”
“I expected the man would be com-
pletely confound; but instead of that, be
manifested no surprise whatever. “Ah '
are you indeed?" he exclaimed, hardly
looking at me ; “well, you are just the
man I wanted to see. The proprietor of
the menagorie told me you’was a capable
f'ellow,‘and I have a proposition to make
to you. But how do you like being an
ourang-outang T I became tired enough
o_fit._ I used to act the same part you
have béen playing, but the other ourang-
outrang and I quarrelled, and I was ob-
ligedto give it up. However the pro-
prietor of the meuagerie pays me the
same for ‘lecturing’ that I received in the
other capacity. Well, the menlgerie is
soon to be taken about the country, and
the. proprietor wants me to precede it
w_ith_my lectures. Now I have a call
in _another direction, and would l1ke to
have. you take my lectures and deliver
them about the countty instead of me.-—
He' will pay you the same wages that
you Have been receiving. What do you
say to the proposition?” I
"This was said by the lecturer in the
most serious and business-like manner
imaginable. "When he had finished, I
burst out into an immoderafe fit of laugh-
ter. "Well,” exclaimed I, as soon as I
could compose myself, ‘this is enough to
make an ourang-outang philosophize E-
truly, this world is a two-edged lie,
which seems, but is not!”
‘Any change from an ourang-omang
seemed desirable. and a bargain between
us was soon struck up.
ed me the lectures, he remarked that I
srould have to study them a little, and if
Ifound anything obscure in them, Mr.
Versatile, who lived in Oxford street, and
who wrote them, could explain. The au-
thor he said, ‘observed when he gave them
to me, that they had been mitten in great
lmste, but be presumed none of my au-
diences would be very profound critics,
either in philosophy or asthetics.’
“ ‘2Estbetics’ ?’ said I. ‘what are Irey-?’
“I don’t know,’ replied he; ‘I asked
the proprietor of the caravan. and he said
he had heard of them, but be presumed
they were no very great curiosity, and
that nothing could be made by exhibit-
ing them ’ ’
-“I had very good success in lecttnring.
and made quite a sensation 1hro11;hm1't
the country. The phllfisophy I taught
gave new confidence and boldness to the-
intidels and materialistic who flocked to
hear me, and they considered that 1 ap-
proached as near an Inspired person as
they could conceive of. This new em-
ployment was more gratifying to nu» r1.-.-n

occupation was gone, and the lectures
were only worth what they would bring
for paper-rags. '
"I. was again cast upon the great oys-
ter, the world, without a knife to openit
with. I became successively, essence-
peddler, scissors-grinder, street-organ
player, a shipwrecked Italian beggar,

The lnd’s anployer, a wealthy, miser-
ly, and unprincipled nmnufncturer, had
made use of it, for a purpose of what
he called testing the boy's honesty. It
was placed where, from its very position
the lad would oftenest see it, and least
suspect the trap. A day passed, and the
master found to his mortificatlon and
chagrin, that the coin remained un-
touched. Another day passed. and Ye‘
his object was not gained. He was
however determined that the boy should
take it and so let it remain.‘
The continued temptnuon _wz1s too
