POETRY ANB MISCELLANY.
From the Baltimore Patriot,
Death of Edgar A- Poe.
We sincerely regret to hear of the melancho
ly dead) of Edgar A Poe, who expired in this
city on Sunday morning about five o’clock, at
the earlv age of thirty-eight years, after an ill
ness of about a week- His disease was con
gestionof the brain.
Mr. Poe was equally remarkable for his ge
nius and his acquirements. He enjoyed un
common advantages of early education, hav
ing spent his boyhood at a school in the neigh
borhood of London, and afterwards received
instruction at William and Mary College, and
al West Point. These advantages were im
proved with considerable assiduity, and by the
time he reached his majority he had acquired
accomplishments rarely attained by men far
more advanced in years. He was acquainted,
in a greater or less degree, with the ancient
languages, and with French, Spanish, Italian
and German, and had an accurate knowledge
of most branches of science and art. His ac
quirements in Astronomy,Natural Philosophy.
Natural History, Botany, Chemistry, &c , are
said to have been both extensive and accurate,
and there were few branches of human know
ledge to which he had notdirected his attention
and with which, at least, he had not such fa
miliarity as to enable him, in bis writings, to
draw upon them for the purpose of illustration,
with aptness and effect Mr. Poe’s writings,
both in prose and poetry, have for several
years past, had an established reputation.
They were peculiar, and far from being with
out striking faults; but there is scarcely one of
them that can be read by a person of judgment,
without leading him to the conclusion that the
author was a man of genius truly original ; of
a taste refined by diligent study and compari
son ; and of information varied, comprehen
sive and minute. It is greatly to be regretted
that his extraordinary capacity was not more
appropriately employed than in the field of
literary labor, to which circumstances obliged
him to confine himself For, under better
auspices, he might have produced works which
would have been of enduring value to posteri
ty. His writings disclose the most remarkable
powers of analysis, and had his efforis been
steadily and judiciously directed, he would
have left behind him a reputation inferior to
that of no other American writer whatever.—
As it is, what he has written will not fail to be
rescued from the common fate of the epheme
ral productions of the day. The learning,
genius, taste, originality and nice discrimina
tion. mellifluous flow, and often exquisite ima
gery of his verse, will never cease to be ac
knowledge and admired. His criticisms of his
cotemporaries were universally admitted to
discover the most acute perception of the
faults as well as merits of those whom he re
viewed ; and although often impeached as
wanting in impartiality, are now generally con
r ceded to have been equally just and discrimi
nating. .
r«.n ne co 11 oq 11 ial powers, warm
and amiable impulses, and of a high and some
times haughty spirit. It is deeply to be de
plored that his great powers, which might
have enabled him to soar so high and to have
acquired for himself so much of fame and
prosperity, were obscured and crippled by the
frailities and weaknesses which have too often
attended eminent genius in all ages.
Il may be regarded as a singular coinci
dence. that several days ago we received a
note from a “Lady Friend,” asking us to pub
lish two poems by Mr. Poe, “The Raven” and
‘•Ulalwme/’ and that we had prepared to
publish the former, on this very day, and even
were on the point of sending it to the compos
itor, when we heard of his death. We still
publish it in connection with the above notice
of his decease. “The Raven” on the first
publication about five years ago, excited a
deep interest, and was copied far and near, at
home and abroad. It is a rare effort of the
peculiar genius of the writer, and is one of
the most remarkable and metrical poems ever
written.
THE RAVEN.
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak
and weary,
Over many a quaint and carious volume of forgotten
lore—
While i nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came
a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my cham
ber door.
“’Tis some visiter,” I muttered, “tapping at my
chamber door—
Only this and nothing more.”
Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak De
cember ;
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost
upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow, —vainly I bad sought
to borrow
Prom my books surcease of Borrow—sorrow for the
loot Lenorc —
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels
name Lenore
Nameless here for evtrmt re. .
And the sad, uncertain rustling of each pur
ple • i.dain
Thrilled u.a —filled me with fantastic terrors never
felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood
repeating
“*Tia some visiter entreating entrance at ray cham
ber door —
Some late visiter entreating entrance at ray chamber
door; —
This it is and nothing more.”
Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no
longer,
“Sir,” said I, “or Madam, truly your forgiveness I
implore ;
But the fact is 1 was napping, and so gently you came
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to
dream before;
But the silence waa unbroken, and the stillness gave
no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered
word, •‘Len »re!‘*
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the
word “Lenore?”
Merely this, and nothing more.
Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within
me burning,
Soon again 1 heard a rapping somewhat louder than
before.
“Sutely,” raid I, “suerly that is something at my
window lattice
Let me see, then, wliat thereat is, and this mystery
explore—
Let my heart be still a moment, and this mystery ex
plore ;
'Tibthe wind and nothing more?”
Open here I flung the shutter, when with many a flirt I
and flutter,
In there stepped a stately Raven of the saintly days
of y«»re;
Not the least obeisance made he ; not a minute stop
ped or stayed he;
But with mein of lord or lady, perched above my
chamber door—
Perched upon a bust of Pallas, just above my cham
ber door —
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.
Then thia ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into
smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance
it wore,
•‘Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,” 1
said, “art sure no craven,
Ghastly, grim and ancient Raven, wandering from
the Nightly shore—
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night’s Plu
tonian shore I”
Quoth the Raven, “ Nevermore.”
Much I marvelled thia ungainly fowl to hear discourse
so plainly
Though its answers little meaning—little relevancy
bore;
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human
being
Ever yet waa blessed with set ing bird above his
chamber door—
Bird or beast upon the sculptured bust above his
chamber (Kmh,
With such name as “ Nevermore.”
But the Raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke
only
That one wt rd, as if bis aoul in that one word he did
outpour.
Nothing farther then he uttered—not a feather then
he fluttered—
Till I scarcely m»re than muttered “Other friends
hava flown before—
—_ On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have
Then ibelurd sINT
Startled at the Millnesa broken by reply so aptly
spoken,
aaid I, <• what it utter* is its only stock
and store
Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerci
ful Di«t«er
Followed fast and followed faster till hi* songs one
burden bore—
Tilt the dirges of hie Hope that melancholy burden
bore
Never—nevermore. 1 ”
But the Raven still beguiling my sad fancy intosmil-
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird,
and boat and door,
Then, upoa the velvet sinking, 1 betook myself to
linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of
yore—
Meant in croaking “ Nevermore.”
This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable ex
pressing
To the fowl whose fiery eye* now burned into «v
core;
This and more I sat divining, with my head at ea«?
reclining
On the cashion's velvet lining that the lamp-light
gloated o’er;

Leave my loneliness unbroken I—quit die bust above
my door!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form

Quoth the Raven “ Nevermore.”
And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is
sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber
door;
And bis eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that
is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his
shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating
on the floor
Shall be lifted—nevermore !

AN AUTUMNAL FRAGMENT.
How wonderful, how glorious and grand
This world of ours? How full of loveliness!
Os majesty and beauty ! O how full ’
in all its various changes, how sublime!
When Spring unfolds the tender buds, and plains,
And mountains, hills and valleys, woodlands and
meads,
Are all clad in her bright and beauteous hues ;
When every grove is vocal with the songs
Os Nature s sweetest warblers, and each breeze
Bears soft and fragrant odors on its wing—
Who can go forth and view the glorious scene,
And murmur, “Earth is one wide realm of wo
Atid misery—a prison-house, where Man
Was plac d to sorrow for some crime?” —And who,
When Summer’s heavenly graniture is cast
O’er Nature’s face, and every sale is laden
With the delicious sweets of full bloom flowers,
And every bower fill’d with the soothing hum
Os bee, inviting softest slumbers, who,
That has a heart for happiness, would ask,
Or wish a world more glorious than this ?
In Autumn still our earth is beautiful!
And though it comes in sadder garb than Spring,
Or Summer, yet of all the seasons, none,
Methinks, hath voice more eloquent, or speaks
In deeper language to the heart of man.
Go forth into the woods and mark the scene !
The flowers are dead ; lhe leaves are blown and
And if a breeze pass by they fill in showers [sere ;]
Upon thy head. The birds, to whose soft notes
It was a bliss to listen—save the jay
And raven, whose lune cry sounds from the top
Os some bare oak—have flown to sunnier climes.
Go forth! and though sad thoughts, perchance,
may flit
Across thy mind, as thou dost gaze around,
And dark forebodings of thine own decay
' Come o’er thee, they will pass away full soon ;
For hope shall picture to thine eye the Earth
Cover’d with brighter and with fresher flowers ;
The trees with greener foliage; and the fields
In garbs more beautiful and lovely clad.
’ So *hou —when the sere Autumn of thy days
Shall come, and Death sieze on the crumbling clay,
Bidding thy spirit quit its tenement —
Shalt rise to worlds of purer beauty, where
1 No tempests rage, no clouds obscure the sky,
1 But one unfading Summer decks the scene.
Mobile, Oct. 22d, 1849.
SPEAK NO ILL.
Nay, speak no ill! a kindly
Can >
■ —'*e l *!*''llle eiich tale we’ve heard
Is far beneath a noble mind.
i Full oft a better seed is sown
By choosing thus lhe kinder plan,
For if but little good be known,
Still let us speak the best we can.
i Give me die heart that fain would hide,
Would fain another’s faults efface;
How can it pleasure human pride
To prove humanity but base?
No; let us reach a higher mode,
A nobler estimate of man ;
Be earnest ir. the search of geod,
And speak of all the best we can.
Then speak no ill—but lenient be
To other’s feelings as your own ;
If you’re the first a fault to see.
Be not lhe first to make it known.
For life is but a paxsing day,
No lip may tell how brief its span :
Then, oh! the little time we stay,
Let’s speak of all the best we can.
October*
BY THE LATE WILLIS GATLOBD CLARK.
Solemn, ye\ beautiful to view,
Month of my heart! thou dawnest here,
Wi'h sad and faded leaves to strew
The summer’s melancholy bier.
The moaning of thy winds 1 hear,
As the red sunset dies afar.
And burs of purple clouds appear,
Obscuring every western star.
Thou solemn mouth ! I hear thy voice;
It tell* my soul of other days,
When but to live was to rejoice,
When earth was lovely to my gaze !
Ob, visions bright—oh, blessed hours,
Where are their living ruptures now?
I ask my spirit’s wearied powers —
I ask my pale and fevered brow.
I look to Nature, and behold,
My life’s dim emblems rusting round,
In hues of crimson und of gold
The year’s dead honors on the ground :
And sighing with the winds, I feel,
While their low pinions murmur by,
How much their sweeping tones reveal
Os life and human destiny.
When Spring’s delightsome moments shone,
They came in zephyrs from the West,
They bore the wood-lark’s melting tone,
They stirred the blue lake’s glassy breast;
Through Summer, fainting in the heat,
They lingered in the forest shade ;
But, changed and strengthened now, they beat
In storm, o’er mountain, glen and glade.
How like those transports of the breast
When life is fresh und joy is new,
Soft as the halcyon’s downy nest,
And transient all as they are true !
They stir the leaves in that bright wreath,
Which Hope about her forehead twineu
’Till Grief’s hot sighs around it breathe,
Then Pleisure’s lip its smile resigns.
Alas, for time, and death and care,
What gloom about our way they fling !
.ike clouds in Autumn’s gusty air,
The burial pageant of the Spring:
Che drcams that each succtvsive year
Seemed hatheljn hues of brighter pride,
It last like withered leaves appear,
And sleep in darkness side by side!
The Irish Emigrant** Adieu to Ireland.
The following stanzas were written by the daugh
ter of (’omtuotlore Stewart—who is a daughter of
also of Phila<>elphia—dated A vandale, county of
Wicklow, Ireland, August, 1849:
Dear home of my soul, O Erin farewell I
My sad heart now beats but thy sorrowing knell;
Thy spirit is fled and thy glory Iks low,
And daik the despair where once hope shed her'glow.
Too long have thy sons in deep anguish wep* o’er thee,
Too long have but felt and but spoke to deplore thee,
Their tears dropp< d in vain o’er thy youth’s early
giave,
They brought thee no blessing, no power to save.
Where the sun sweedy sinks, there’s a haven o< rest.
And thy children must seek that far land of the West
But enshrined in their hearts, thy lone image they’ll
bear,
And oft to weep o’er thee shall mem’ry repair.
Soon to meet the cold billows, their salt tears shall
stare.
And sad to the tempest shad echo each heart;
O, not deeper the waves o’er their dark bed shall roll,
Than the tnem’ries of thee o’er lhe emigrant’* soul!
(>, Erin, mavourneen ! their hearts bleed lor thee.
They mourn thy paled radiance, lair Star of lhe Sea !
In the dark nights of absence, of sorrow afar,
They’ll long fur thy rising, sighing “ Erin go bragh’’
So fair was thy premise ! lhe world spoke thy praise
But scarce ’mid the nations thy form could’st thou
raise ;
Ixmely child of misfortune, in infancy crushed !
Scarce, scarce through thy deep pulse lhe life-blood
bath rushed.
Thy dark skies prophetic have wept o’er thy tale,
Ami mournful hath sounded the ocean wind’s wall;
On thy iron-bound const the full swelling surge,
With its sad hollow beat, seemed to utter thy dirge.
And now, though with anguish thy son* must forsake,
And near thee no more their lament shall awake,
All nature shall grieve, for her loveliest child,
Brightest jewel that e’er in her coronet smiled !
Thou dear land of my sires ! must I bid thee fare
well !
May ny fond eye ne’er more on thy fair beauties
dwell!
But the stranger may gaze—yet not with the pride
Os this poor bleeding heart rudely torn from thy side!
Ye loved haunt* of my youth ! ne’er at morn shall I
greet
The scene* where my soul-cherished mem’riea would
1 meet ;
At eve, when fatigued, shall it never be mine,
On thy bosom of verdure refreshed to recline!
( Tho* dark are thy annals, which crime may have
traced,
Yet by pity and candor their foul blot *s effaced ;
To those whom no no party deceive,
To the fair judging future thy siory we leave.
’ Then blame nut my eonn f rvn»en —sad is their fate,
And firm is their love, though deep bo thek hate ;

But wither and die ’reaih the cola wintry skiesl
The river, that ever flows brilliantly on,

Nelson and Lady Hamilton*
In June, 1798. Nelson, hr all .acquainted with
the history of tho<e times will vividly retnem
-1 ber, was in search of the French fleet. How
he discovered it at Alexandria towards the end |
s of July, and what havoc in the course oftwelve
hours be played with it on tho Ist of August,
1 no Englishman is ever likely to forget But
there are incidents connected with this wonder
ful pursuits, and this noble victory, with which
i our readers are perhaps not so familiar. They
belong rather to the history of Lady Hamilton
than to that of Nelson, yet how evidently do
they affect the character and fate of both.
Sir William and Lady Hamilton were arous
ed from their slumbers one morning in the
aforesaid June, by the arrival of Captain Tron
bridge, with letters from Sir Horatio Nelson,
“requesting that the Ambassador would pro
cure him permission to enter with his fleet into
Naples, or any of the Sicilian ports, to provi
sion, water, &c., as otherwise he must run for
Gibralter, being in urgent want, and that con
sequently he would be obliged to give over all
further pursuit of the French fleet, which he
had missed at Egypt, on account of their having
put into Malta. It was much easier for Sir
Horatio to make the request than for the Am
bassador to comply with it. At that very time
Naples was at peace with France, a French
Ambassador was resident in the Napolitan cap
ital, and Ferdinand had stipulated with France
that no more than two English ships of war
should enter into any of the Neapolitan or Si
cilian ports. What was to be done? Sir
William Hamilton did lhe best he cotdd, he
jumped out of bed, hastened to Sir John Acton.
Ferdinand’s Prime Minister, who convened a
Council immediately, at which the King him
self was present. The Council sat down to
consider Sir Horatio's demand at half past 6 o'-
clock, and took one hour and a half exactly to
come to a determination, for they did not rise
until 8 Capt, Trobridge accompanied Sir
Willian Hamilton to his residence after the
Council had broken up. but Lady Hamilton
on had already gathered from the countenances
of the King and Sir John Acton lhe dismal con
session that Naples break with France,
that the fleet of Nelson could receive no help.
We are reaching a point in the narrative at
which the craft of the penmen fails him, and
tho superiority of lhe painter becomes striking,
ly manifest. Imagine the vexation of the dis
appointed Ambassador, picture to yourself the
bitter regret and downcast looks of the faithful
Troubridge, and then behold, close to them
both, a form as lovely as an angel’s, a face
beaming with the animation of triumph, and the
ecstacy of an irrepressible delight, observe her
hand trembling with the anxiousness of the
precious treasure it grasps, and then see her
waving high up exultingly in the air the order
which the Council had refused, and lhe King
himself could not obtain. Dr. Budd’s nursery
maid had positively in her possession the per
mission for which Nelson had petitioned in
vain, and without which it was impossible sat
isfactory to carry on the war. Oh, how the
sorceress must have ihCKiiMt* 11
Mi*»j-»- -- <1 ~ !- * -» Wfr from their
fiS'emn consultation with their lugubrious vis
ages indicating helplessness, inability, and un
utterable disgust!
We have had occasion to observe that the
King of Naples was a fool, and his Queen very
much the reverse. This was unfortunate
enough for his Majesty; but what was worse
still, bis loving people were cognizant of the
fact. The King certainly commanded in his
dominions; but hi* wife was obeyed. Who
knew this better than Lady Hamilton ? That
very clever lady suffered Sir William to wake
up Sir John Acton, to get the King outofhis bed
to cause the Council to be summoned, and
when all was done, and lhe wise men were
fully engaged in discussion, she herself quietly
slipped into the Queen’s bedchamber, and got
up a little council of her own. The reader
bears in mind the consummate ability of this
actress. He has been told that Siddons could
not have been more tragic, O’Neil not more
pathetic; and lie has seen how exquisitely she
performed in the presence of her quondam
protector, when that gentleman found fault with
her imprudence, and she in suitable costume
humbly begged leave to be dismissed from his
roof. Domestic drama in the apartment of
Majesty gave place to classic tragedy. Not
a moment was to be lost, and Lady Hamilton
came at once to the catastrophe. In the most
passionate manner she threw herselfupon her
knees, and told the Queen that the fate of the
Two Sicilies now depended upon her resolu
tion; the Council were sitting; let them de
cide upon negative or half measures, and the
family of Ferdinand was doomed. The great
French force must be followed: it could not
be pursued unless the English fleet found re
freshment in the Sicilian ports; and if allowed
to go free the peril, not to England, but to
Naples, could not be overrated. The terrified
Queen became alive to the danger of the situ
ation, but she had faith in tbe King, then sitting
in Council, and was sure he would provide
for the emergency. He might, replied the pe
titioner, or he might not; and, if not, who
cnuld reflect with patience upon the fate that
threatened Naples and the Royal family ? Her
Majesty, with the stroke of the pen could be
her own deliverer. Why liesita e? Her sign
manuel was respected throughout the King’s
dominions; aline, and her country, her hus
band, and hi* crown, were rescued from de
struction. No doubt lhe word was suited to
the action, and lhe action to the word ; pen,
ink and paper were in lhe room, Lady Hamil
ton dictated, and the Queen with her own right
hand directed “ all governors of the two Sicilies
to receive with hospitality the British fleet, to
water, victual, and aid them.” Lady Hamilton
enclosed (hat order to Nelson, and' bade him
commit the Queen no farther than lhe glory
and service of England required. Nelson an
swered that if he gained a battle it should be
called her’* and the Queen’s, for to them alone
would his country be indebted for the victory.
He did gain a battle, and it was that of the
memorable Nile; had bis fleet not been fur
nished with the necessaries of life at Syracuse,
ti*e battle would eot have been fouglß
As may be supposed, the French Ambassador
at Naples was not slow to remonstrate against
the Neapolitan breach of faith. Lady Hamilton
took advantage of the remonstrance to break off
that connection altogether. So plausibly did
she argue with the Queen upon the advantages
to be gained from an open rupture with France
that tbe said ambassador and his suite were
requested to go home at 24 hours’ notice. The
step was not without its evil consequences A
Ne politan army was raised to defend the Two
Sicilies from French aggression, but the gene
ral in command did not understand his busi
ness, and the soldiers were either traitors or
cowards, or both. In the month of December,
1798, the French w ere marching on the capi
tal. and lhe King and Queen were obliged to
decamp. But for Lady Hamilton there is no
doubt that the stupid Ferdinand would have
fa'len a victim to popular fury, and Maria
Caroline might have shared the fate of her
I sister, Marie Antoinette. The conduct of
Lady Hamilton at this emergency is above all
praise. The Royal family, their properly,
their immediate friends, were to be conveyed
iroin the palace to the British ships waiting to
receive them, and not a score of the King’s
subjects could be asked <o help in the under
taking. The labor was performed by Lady
Hamilton alone; her genius designed the plan
t of escape ; her activity rendered the plan suc
cessful
‘•Lady Hamilton,” says Southey, “ like a
heroine of romance, explored with no little
danger, a subterraneous passage, leading from
' the palace to the sea side; through this passage
ihe R« ya t easures, the choicest pieces of
painting id -culpture. and other property, to
the amount of two millions and a half, were
conveyed to the share, and stowed safely on
board the English ships.” During the whole
proceeding lhe movements of Lady Hamilton,
as well as those of her husband, were closely
watched, but ineffectually. Lady Hamilton
, seemed, in the words of Nelson, “tobean an
gel dropped from Heaven,” for lhe preservation
of the Royal family, and she performed an
angvi’s part in conducting them from the rum
that awaited them amongst their ow n people to
the protection and security of British ships.
» The loss to Sir William Hamilton and his wife
by lhe service was great, in order to lull sus
picion and prevent discovery the Ambassador
was obliged It* abandon his house, and to leave
i behind him, belonging to himself, property
amounting to £30.000 and moveables to the
I value of £9.000, the property of his wife.
Nelson received the King and Queen. Sir Wil

guard, and conducted them all in safety to

How to außDus a viciocs Horse.—The
following fact occurred recently: A beau
tiful and high spirited horse would never allow
a ?hoe to be pul on his feet, or any one to han
dle his feet, without a resort to every species
of power and means to control him. At one
time he was rieafy crippled by being pot in the
stocks; he was afterward thrown down and
fettered: at another time one of our most ex
perienced horse shoers was unable to manage
I him by the aid of as many hands as could ap
proach In aa attempt to shoe this horse yester
day, be resisted all efforis, kicked aside every
thing but an anvil, and came near killing him
self against that,and finally was brought back
to his stable unshod. This was his only defect;
iu all other respects he is gentle and perfectly
docile, especially in harness But this defect
was just on lhe eve of consigning him to the
plough, where he might work barefoot, when,
by mere accident, an officer in our service,
lately returned from Mexico, was passing, and
being made acquainted with the difficulty, ap
plied a complete remedy by the following sim
ple process:
He took a cord about the size of a common
bed cord, put it in Ute mouth of the horse like a
bit, and tied it tightly on lhe top of the animal's
head, passing his left ear under the string, not
painfully tight, but tight enough to keep the ear
down and the cordiu its place. This doae, he
patted lhe home gently on the side of his head
and commanded him to follow, and instantly
:he horse obeyed, perfectly subdued and as gen
tle and obedient as a welt trained dog ; suffer
ing his feet to be lifted w ith enure impunity,
and acting in every respect like an old stager.
That simple string thus tied made him at once
as docile and obedient as any one cou'd desire.
The gentleman who thus furnished this exceed
ingly simple means of subduing a very danger
ous propensity, intimated that it is practised in
Mexico and South America in the management
of w ild horses. Be this a* it may, he deserves
the thanks of all owners of such horse*, and
especially lhe thanks of those whose business
it may be to shoe or groom the animals.—X Y.

The Hungarian Crown, which was carried
off by Kossuth, when he fled into Turkey, is
I fabled by the Hungarian legends, to have been
sent by angels to St. Stephen, who wascrown
led with it in 1001. The truth, as related by
history, is, that it was presented to Stephen by
| Pope Silverier IL A golden circlet, present-
I ed to Duke («eiza by lhe Greek Emperor, was
; incorporated wth it afterwards. It has seen
many curious adventures in the eventful histo
ry of Hungary, when rival claimants contend
ed for it. It was once packed away in a cask
by a royal fugutive, wno, iu jourueyit g thus,
tost it. but recovered it again. This same king :
Otto, had it forcibly taken from him by Way
wode Ladislas. who kept it three years, and
then was forced to return it. la 1439 it was
| stolen by a maid of honor, at the instance of
• the widow of a deceased monarch, who wished
:to have her infant son crowned with it. In
1461 the widow pawned it to ihe Emperor
■ Frederick IV, for 2500 guilders. It was re
domed, but soon stolen agai- by another wo
man to crown another royal claimant, and after
several changes fell into the hands of lhe Turks,
whose leader, Solymnn, returning from lhe
Seige of Vienna, exhibited it as the crown of
the famous Persian King Nushiveon. He af
terwards sent it back to lhe person from whom
he obtained it, and it then was given up to the
Emperor Ferdinand. After many other changes
it was sent to Hungary by Leopold, and there
it remained until Windischgratz took Peslh,
when Kossuth removed it, and has ever since
kept it in his possession.
Sociallmpokta>ce of the Working Class
es.—The three elements ofthe resources ofihe
great commonwealth, are labor, intelligence,
capital; the last is gathered and adiuinstered by
the wealthy; the second is contributed by the
gifted and studious; but the first great contri
bution of endloss toil is supplied by the work
ingclasses. There are they in your fields and
your mines, your ships, your warehouses and
your workshops, giving an amount of manual
and physical effort, which do nature, no patience
but that of men bred to labor, could sustain
Hardly less consumers than producers, they
form that great elastic power in the community
which endures privation and adjusts demand
and supply. Amidst scarcity and high prices,
their unavoidable privations, diminish con
sumption; and. amidst plenty and cheapness,
their increased enjoyments restore the remu
neration of capital and the profits of trade. In
national policy, their judgment, once enlight
ened, would have immense force and equal

A rare Raffle.—-One who hasjust return

rather dandily dressed, and having while kid
gloves on his hands, appeared a lew months
since in lhe streets of San Francisco, and made
a prodigious sensation. The white kids wen
the first that had been seen there, and at once
attracted the attention and excited the curiosity
of even the busy gold-diggers. A crowd soon
gathered around lhe man in gloves, and ex
pressed their determination to dispose of him
by raffle, as being the greatest curiosity of the

Dr. Hart’s Vegotable Extract.
ASTONISHING success which has at*
JL tended the use of this invaluable medicipe for
Epileptic Fits, (or falling sickness.) Spasms, Cramps,
Convulsions, Ac., renders it the most valuable medi
cine ever discovered, in fact, as a remedy for the
Epilepsy is incurable. This, however, is not the fact.
Dr. Hurt's Vegetable Extract has and is constantly
curing this distressing complaint, as the following tes
timony received from Physicians and others will
show ;
Judge Rundnll, Henry-st., New York, having
used the Vegetable Extinct successfully in his family,
highly recommends it to all persons who are afflicted
with Fits.
Mr. Stephen E. Pratt, corner of Sixth Avenue and
Twenty-sixth-st., New York, states that Mr. Chas.
H. Boughton, a member of his family, has been so
severely afflicted with Epileptic Fits for many years,
that he was obliged to relinquish his business. Hav
ing used Dr. Hart’s Vegetable Extract (says Mr.
Pratt) he u r as sixjn restored to perfect health, and left
this city for the State of Ohio to resume his business.
Rev. Mr. Smith, RectorofSt. Peters Church, Spots
wood, New Jersey, who has been afflicted with Epi
leptic Fits for more than forty years, states that he
has used Dr. Hart’s Vegetable Extract and his health
has been so much improved that be hopes by Divine
blessing, to have no more Fits.
EPILEPTIC FITS.
Os twenty-seven years and six months, cured by
the use of this truly wonderful medicine.
Read the following remarkable case ot the son of
Win. Secore, Esq., of Philadelphia, afflicted with Epi
leptic Fits, twenty-seven years and six months. Af
ter travelling through England, Scotland, Germany
and France, consulting the most eminent physicians,
and expending for medicine, medical treatment and
advice three thousand dollars, returned with his son
to this country in November last, without receiving
any benefit whatever, and was cured by using Hart’s
Vegetable Extract:
| Mr. William Secore's Letter to Dr. Hart.}
1 have spent over three thousand dollars for medi
cine and medical attendance. I was adviced to take
a tour to Europe with him, which 1 did. 1 first vis
ited England. 1 consulted the most eminent physi
cians there in respect to his case; they examined him
and prescribed accordingly. I remained there three
months without perceiving any change for the bet’er,
which cost ine about two hundred and fifty dollars,
pocketed by the physicians, and the most that I re
ceived was their opinion that my son’s case was hope
' less and POSITIVELY INCURABLE. I according
a ly left England, travelled through Scotland, Germany
' and France, and returned home in the month of No
vernber last, with my son as far from being cured as
when 1 left. I shw your advertisement in one of the
’ New York papers, and concluded to try Harts Vege
] table Extract, seeing your statements and certificates
of so many cures, some of twenty and thirty years
’ standing, and I can assure you lam not sorry I did
so, us by the use of Hart’s Vegetable Extract alone he
was restored to PERFECT HEALTH. His reason,
which was so fur gone as to unfit him for business,is en
tirely restored, with the , rospeet now before him of life,
health and usefulness. He is now 28 years of age,
and 27 years 6 months of this ti ue has been afflicted
with this most dreadful of diseases, but thank God
1 now enjoying go«d health.
Now, sir, faith without works I don’t believe in.—
To say I shall be ever grateful to you is one thing, and
as I here enclose you one hundred dollars, I have no
doubt but you wiU think this another and quite a dif
ferent thing. The debt of gratitude I still owe you;
but please accept this amount as interest on the debt
in advance. Yours, very respectfully,
(Signed.) WILLIAM SECURE.
The time is not for
now trembling untfeFThe hand of this dreadful dis
ease, and fearing that every attack may prove fatal
will find permanent relief and be restored to new life,
■ by using this celebrated medicine.
