IT was with sincere pleasure that the pub lisher mentioned last season, the arrange ment by which THE LADY’S BOOK and LADJES’ AMERICAN MAGAZINE, were united, and to be edited by Mrs. Sarah J. Hale. It is with equal pleasure that lie now informs the patrons of the work, that he has made an arrangement with Miss Leslie, au thor of Pencil Sketches, Mrs. Washington Potts, &c. &c., who will be connected with Mrs. Hale in lending interest to the pages of the Lady’s Book. Her powerful aid will com mence with the January number, 1838. In addition to the above every number of the work next year will contain a plate of su perbly colored fashions. The subscriber endeavors by extraordinary exertions to show his gratitude for the very many favors he has received from his kind friends, the public. From among the many fe male writers of America, perhaps no two La dies could have been selected, whose varied talents are so well calculated to adorn a work like the Lady’s Book. When it is also men tioned that Mrs. Sigourney, the Hemans of America and Grenville Mellen are con tributors to the poetieal department, it will be useless to waste argument in endeavoring to show what is apparent that the Lady's Book will stand unrivalled among the periodicals of the country. Each number also contains two pages of Fashionable music—in many cases original. SOME OF THE CONTRIBUTORS. Mrs. S. J. Hale, editor, R. S. McKenzie,L LD. Mrs. L. H. Sigourney, Joseph R. Chandler.

POETRY. TEARS. BY THE nOX. CHIEF JUSTICE MELLEN OF MAINE. Crystals, where are your recesses, Where the home of your repose, When the world around caresses, And the heart no sorrow knows ? Then, the eye is bright and gleaming Asa summer’s smiling day; Joy and peace may there be beaming, Still uninfluenced by your sway. Why should sudden bursts ol feeling, Why should transport flood the eyes? Why, when from your fountain stealing, Do ye flow mid rapture's sighs ? Where’s the fount, whence pain and anguish Call ye forth for their relief? Causing agony to languish Into deep and dark’ning grief ? Crystal tears, so freely pouring, Prompt their duty to perform, Tell when gentle gales are blowing Round the heart, and when the storm : Messengers of gladness, rushing, Bearing orders from the heart; Showering cheeks, in beauty blushing, Laughing at the painter's art. Messengers of deepest sorrow, ' From the seat of cruel pain ; Hoping still that of to-morrow, While hope’s promises ar» vain ! Messengers of tender passion, Melting sympathy and love, Hearts o’erflowing with compassion, Warm’d with influence from above. Messengers from hearts despairing, And front Conscience, in alarm : Its frightful catalogue preparing, And no aid from mortal arm; Messengers from hearts repenting, Washing qpt the stains of sin : Mercy smiling—Heaven assenting— Peace around and peace within ! MISCELLANY. [From the Philadelphia Saturday News.] A QUEER CUSTOMER. ‘lt is most amusing,’ said Richard Mer vyn, as he relinquished the attempt to rise from the gutter at the corner of— and— streets. ‘lt is really astonishing how soon this dreadful climate of America brings on old age. I shall never survive to get home and write a book about tjie place—never. Here I am, six feet two, without my stockings, sprawling in a dirty, republican gutter, without being able to help myself out of it. There’s a lamp winking and blinking in my face, as if it wants to laugh, and would, if it had a mouth, and a big brute of a dog just now nosed me to see whether I wa3 good to eat. What a country! what gutters! and what liquor! I only took nine small ers of whiskey, and what with that and premature old age, I verily believe I am as sassinated— I’m a gone chicken!’ Mr. Meryyn now clamored so loudly that assistance soon came. ‘Silence there! what’s the matter?’ ‘Matter yourself—l’m being done, or as some people say, I’m doing. The march of mind has tripped, and Richard Mervyn is too deep for himself. Help me out—gently—there. Aint I in a pretty pickle? This is what the doctors call gutta serena, is’nt it?’ ‘When I was at school the boys would have called you a guttural.’ ‘They would’nt have known much gram mar, if they did. I’m a liquid—see me drip.’ ‘Oh! ho!’ said the watch, ‘don’t try to be funny; I know you well enough, now you’ve wiped your face. You’re the chap that locked me up in my box once, and I when I hurst open the door, you knocked I me heels over head, and legged it.’ ‘That’s me. I did that thing. llow do you like the ups and downs of public life? Is’nt variety charming?’ ‘lf it was’nt that I’m a public function ary, and mus’nt give way to my feelings, I’d crack your cocoa, and ease my mind of doing as I was done by. I’ll m-.ke an | example of you, however. You’re my prisoner. Hally roos/ta to the watch ’us. | That’s the Dutch for being took up.’ ‘Well, give us your arm. Don’t be a fraid of the mud. Gutter mud is very wholesome. Look at the pigs how fat it makes ’em : and if you like fat pork why Jshouid’nt you like what makes pork fat? I So—so—steady Now I’ll tell you all a bout t’other night. I was passing your box in a friendly promiscuous sort of a i way, I thought you were asleep, or had i run down, and I turned the key to wind you up. If a watch aiut wound up, it i can’t either keep good time, or even go.’ ‘Well, what else?’ ‘W hy, then I watch’d the box, and when you came out, I boxed the watch. That’s - all. It grew out of my obliging disposi tion.’ ] ‘Ha! very obliging. Now it’s my turn to wind you up, and to do it in the same way. I’ll take you before the watch-ma ker, to be cleansed and£regulated. You go too fast, but I’ll put a spoke in your wheel; he’ll set you hy the State House, and make you keep good time.’ ‘Why, watchy, you’re a wag. Why don’t you say that I was a horizontal, and that you lifted me up like a patent lever? You’re awake now; but that night you was’nt up to trap, or you would have caught me; I caught a weazle asleep that time—l put fresh salt on you for once.’ To add one more to his vagaries, Mer vyn now refused to walk a step further ; and sitting down on a step, loudly avow ed his resolution, and declared his name was not Wafker. ‘Whether your name is Walker yon must go.’ ‘Not without a go-cart —you can’t force me to go—l’m a legal tender, and you must take me. Hav’nt I got an office, or at least a public situation here on the steps? If I must go, it shall be on the yankee principle of rotation ; bring me a wheel-barrow. Reform me out regularly.’ It was procured, and away they went. ‘So we go,’ said Mervyn, ‘Charley’s making a barrow night of me. Gently over the stones! I don’t like bumpers except when I get them of porter. This is the way to Wheeling—hurra! cart be fore the horse!’ - '■> Arrived at the watch-house, he insisted upon being wheeled up stairs, and styled the place a &amiio-nral castle. ‘l’m a modest man,’ said he, ‘and no stairer. If I can’t have a ride up l think myself en titled to a draw-back.’ So saying he at tempted to escape, but was soon caught, being, as he said, ‘like Goldsmith's works,’ beautifully chased.’ The punster was soon carried aloft, and next morning, sober and penitent, paid his tipsy fine and his carriage hire with a doleful countenance. Annihilation is Impossible. It is now ascertained, and is capable of the clearest proof, that the simple elements of which all substance is composed, can not, hy any conceivable means he destroy ed. They may indeed be so changed as to present not the least resemblance to their previous forms; they may he so min gled with other bodies that their identity cannot be traced—they may be dissipated into invisible vapor, and he apparently an nihilated; hut we learn from the science of chemistry, that in every shape the same elements remain inextinguishable and un altered. The phenomena of solution af fords some of the most obvious illustra tion of complete change produced in bo dies without causing their annihilation. If a‘'piece of silver he immersed in] di luted nitric, in a short time the silver will he entirely dissolved. Its hardness, its?lus tre, its tenacity, its specific gravity, all the characteristics which distinguish it as a metal are gone. Its very form has vanish ed, and the hard, splendid, ponderous and opaque metal, which a few minutes be fore was immersed in the mixtures, is ap parently annihilated. The liquid, howev er, remains as limpid as before; it presents no difference in appearance to indicate a change. What then, has become of the solid piece of silver which was placed in the liquid?—must we conclude that it is annihilated! Put some pieces of copper into the solution and the silver will re-ap pcar, and fall to the bottom of the glass in small brilliant metallic crystals. Though solution is one of the simplest processes of nature, the limited faculties of man will not permit him to comprehend the mode in which it operates. There is not one phenomenon of nature that the mind of man can fully comprehend, and after pur suing the enquiry as far as the mental ca pacity will admit, he is still obliged to confess that there is an operating power beyond the reach of his comprehension. [Bakewefi. Col. Stone, the editorof the N. Y. Com mercial Advertiser, and lie is an experien ced judge in such matters, says — “If you wish to procure a good cup of coffee, never ser.d for that which is roast ed and ground outside of your own house. | See that your cook roasts your coffee eve ry morning. Do not hurry it, but let it I only he moderately browned. Let it he icooled in the roaster, air-tight, so that the ! aroma does not escape, and let it not be | ground until wanted for the urn. Then, jif well cleared, a goodly sized lump of Stewart’s best refined sugar, and a spoon : fill of cream, to a large cup —and mind that the china be white—will render the amber liquid fit to be swallowed by the (grand Turk himself. N. B.—ls you have no cream, use milk, but be careful to boil it before you mix it with your coffee; and remember that the proportions between coffee and boiled milk are very nearly half and half; or say ! three-fifths coffee and two-fifths milk.” A person once said to a father whose son was noted for laziness, that be thought | his son was very much afraid of work.— , ‘Afraid of work,’ replied the father, ‘not at all—he will lay down and go to sleep ■ close by the 9idc of it.’ • The Pirate and the Dove. The fol lowing interesting fact is related by An dubon in his Ornithological Biography.— In speaking of the Zenaida dove he says —A tnan who was once a pirate assured me that several times while at certain wells dug in the burning, shelly sand of a well known key which must be here nameless, the soft and melancholy cry of the doves awoke in his breast feelings which had long slumbered, melted his heart to repentance and caused him to linger at the spot in a state of mind which he only wlro compares the wretchedness of guilt within.him, with the happiness of former innocence, can truly feel. He said he never left the place without increased fears of futurity, associated as he was, although I believe by force, with a hand of the most desper ate villains that ever annoyed the naviga tion to the Florida coast. So deeply moved was he hy notes of any bird, and especially by those of a dove, the only soothing sounds he ever heard during his life of horrors,that through these plaintive notes and them alone, he was in duced to escape from his vessel, abandon his turbulent companions and return to a family deploring his absence. After pay ing a parting visit to those wells, and list ening once more to the Zenaida dove, he poured out his soul in supplication for *mei>cy. f aud once morq become what one has said to be, ‘the noblest work of God,’ 9n honest man. His escape was effected amidst difficulties and dangers; but no dan ger seemed to him to be comparable with the danger of one living in the violation of human and divine laws; and now he lives in peace in the midst of his friends. Saturday Night. It is good when the week is ended to look hack upon its bu siness and its toils,and see wherein we have failed of our duties or come short of what we should have done. The close of the week should he to each of us as the close of our lives. Every thing should be ad justed with the world and with our God, as if we were' about to leave the one to appear before the other- The week is, indeed, one of the regular divisions of life, and when it closes it should not lie with out its moral. From the end of one week to the end of another, the inind can eari ly streach onward, to the close of exist ance. It can- sweep down the stream of time to the distant period when it will be entirely beyond human power to regulate human affairs. When for the mercies of the week we are thankful, aud when our past months and years come up in succession before us—we see the vanity of our youthful days, and vexations of manhood, and tremble at the approaching winter of age. It is then we should with draw from the business and cares of the world, aud give a thought to our end, and to what we are to be hereafter. About one million of dollars lias been paid into the Treasury of Pennsylvania during the fiscial year ending on the Ist instant, on account of the tolls received during that period from the Canals and Railroads owned hy that Commonwealth. Had not the disaster occurred, which swept away some thirty miles of Canal on the Juniata in June last, the tolls would probably have amounted to a million and a half during the year. We see hy annun ciations in the interior papers that the danger is at length repaired, and that the entire line of Canals from the Susquehan na to the Ohio would he again navigable during the present week. Should the sea son, therefore, he not unusually cold, there is yet a prospect of some weeks of active business before the navigation is closed hy ice. In this respect the works of Pennsyl vania enjoy a positive and important ad vantage over those of New- York, the more Southern location of the former having the effect of opentng them from a month to six weeks earlier in the Spring and to keeping them open longer hy the same period, in the Fall.—[Balt. Ameri can. Benevolence. ‘Not for ourselves but for others,’ is the grand law of nature, inscribed by the hand of God on every part of creation. Not for itself, hut for others, does the sun dispense its beams: not for themselves, but for others, do the clouds distil; and does the earth unlock her treasures; not for themselves but for others, do the trees produce their fruits, or flowers diffuse their fragrance, and dis play their hues. So not for himself but others, are the blessings of heaven bestow ed on man. He who lives only to him self, and consumes the bounty of heaven upon his lust, or consecrates it to the demon of avarice, is a barren rock in a fertile plain—he is a thorny bramble in a fruitful vineyard—he is the very Arabian desert of the moral world. There is not a man, or a thing now a live, but has tools to work with. The basest of created animalcules, the spider itself, has a spinning jenny and a WUrping mill and power loom within its head, the stupidest of oysters has a Papin’s digester, with a stone and lime house to hold it in. How unnatural then, is idleness! [TElfMs.....*# ttt ADTAIfCKj jy u MBZSRI Wm -■ "■ r On looking over the report of Iff. Cotting, State Geologist, to the Governor, of October 14th, 1838,1 find that daring his exploration of Morgan County, lie discovered, ‘‘for the first time in Georgia, the substance technically termed griHfm. sward, which is highly prized in Franee and England, as an application to lihjjs, and considered far superior to the fidse and marl.

Constitutionalist. t - - T-, The Biter Bitten. —A man, in the dress of a workman, was lately walking in the streets of Berlin with a packet in his hand, sealed with five seals, and in scribed with an address, and a note that it contained one hundred tbalera in trea sury hills. As the bearer appeared to be at a loss, he was accosted by a passenger, who asked him what he was looking for. The simple countryman placed the pack et in the enquirer’s hands, and requested that he would read the address. The reply was made as with an agreeable sur prise. “Why! this letter is for me: I have been expecting it for a long while!” The messenger upon this demanded tm thalers for the carriage of tho packet, which was readily paid, with a liberal addition to the porter.—The new posses sor of the packet hastened to an obscure corner to examine his prize, but, on breaking the seals, found nothing but a few sheets of blank paper, on which was written “ Done!” Maxims op Bishop Middleton.—Per severe against -discouragements. —Keep yout temper.—Employ leisure in study, and always have some work on hand.— Be punctual and methodical in business, and never procrastinate.—Never be in a hurry.—Preserve self-possession, and do not be talked out of conviction.—Rise early, and be an economist of Maintain dignity, without the appearance of pride; manner is something with every body, and every thing with some.— Be guarded in discourse; attentive and slow to speak.—Never acquiesce in immoral or pernicious opinions.—Be not forward to assign reasons to those who have no right to ask.—Think nothing in conduct unimportant and indifferent.—Rather set, than follow example.

Military Concert. —On the recent arrival of the Emperor and Empress of Russia at Berlin, all the bands, drummers and fifers, of the nine regimeuts of infant ry and eleven of cavalry, amounting to 1074 men, were asseinbled-in front of the royal palace, and disposed on three sides of an oblong square, 120 paces by 65. The longest side was occupied bf the infant ry hands, one of the small |Me* by those of the cavalry, composed oPtMnd instru ments, and the remaining bide by the drummers and fifers. Ail the general and field officers in full uniform Mok their places on the fourth aide. In the centre of the square there was the leader of the hand, aud at a certain distance from him, opposite to the regimental bands, their separate leaders„all armed with their short wands. At a signal given by the leader* the concert commenced by the hymn “God preserve the Emperor," and finished at nine o’clock with the Russian Retreat and an evening prayer. The execution of the concert is stated to have been ad mirable.
