The New York Knickerbocker copies the follow ing beautiful liues, and asks fir the name of their amhor. They have been attributed to Bulwer, but whether justly or not, we cannot say : ‘ Into my heart a silent look Plashed from thy careless eyes, And what before was shadow, took Th* light of summer skies. The First-born Love was in that look ; The Venus rose from out the deep Os those inspiring eyes. • My life, like some lone solemn spot A spirit passes o’er, Grew instinct with a glory not In earth or heaven before : Sweet trouble stirred the haunted spot. And shook tho leaves of every thought Thy presence wandered o’er. * My being yearned and crept to thine, As if, tn tunes of yore Thy soul bad been a part of mine Which claimed it back once more ; Thy very self no longer thine, But merged in that delicious life Which made us one of yore! ‘There bloomed beside thee forms as lair, There murmured tone* as sweet. But round thee brcaibsd the enchanted air ’Twas life and death to meet; And henceforth thou alone wert fair, And though the stars had sung for joy, Thy whisper only sweet.’ From the Louisville Journal. BEAU fY BY J. HUfISBLL BARRICK. There’s beauty in the balmy spring, When the forest flowers bloom, And Ni 'ure wears a lively hue Un'ike her autumn gloom : When ibe blue skies look soft and fair, With sunshine all the while, And ail tnegiud and joyous earth Seems with delight to smile. Th-re's beauty in the summer days, When by the running brook, We read the language of the flowers, As fnn an open bo- k ; When the f. ee streams with fresher speed, Flow wi h a sweeter strain, Aud ail th air, the wind-harp’s strings, A bird-l:ke bir.e attain. There’s beauty in the autumn time, When sadness and decay Stea! -.’er the placid face of earth, And its flowers fade away • When skies grow pale, and forest leaves Droop languishing and low, And the streams with a mournful dirge To sadder music flow. There’* beautsJn winter shade. ■ And Nature of her verdure rest Seems barren, bleak, an I old I When ice-bound streams forget to flow, And little birds to sing, Their vo'ces hushed in silence long Togreet the coming spring. There’s beauty in the freshening mom, When o'er the eastern sky The golden sun looks forth In pride and in ijnsty ; Whan mist nml daw from earth ascend, To blend with the mid air, And Nature lifts her happy voice In thinktill praise and prayer. There’s beauty in the glorious eve, When sunset’s lily skies Are glowing withx thousand hues — A thousand Eden dyes: V* hen twilight stars steal gently out, To gaze on all aiound, And lovers’ heaits, to cons’aacc vowed, With thoughts of love abound. There’s beauty in the quiet night, When moon and star* above Shine out of their eternal spheres, Like sentinels of lave : W on the bright spirit, free from earth, On wings of thought can rise, ’ Till tn the future it beholds The beauty of the skies.

A CONVENIENT DISTANCE. There are few of us who do not feel, at some time in life, the desire for change. In deed, change of place corresponding, as it does, in outward nature, to change of s.ate in the mind, it is not at all surprisinf that wo should, now and then, feel a strung desire to remove from the old, and get into new loca lions, and ain id different external associations. Thus, w r e find, in many families, an ever re curring tendency to removal. Indeed, I have some housekeeping friends who are rarely to be found in the same house, or in the same part of the citv in any two consecutive years. Three moves, Franklin used to say, is equal to a fire There are some to whom I could point, who have been, if this holds true, as good as burned out, three or four ti*nes in the last ten years. But I must not write too long a preface to tny story. Mr and Mrs Smith and myself cannot boast of larger organs of Inhubitaiive ness—l believe that is the word u.-ud by pine nologi.«ts—than many of our neighbors. Oc casionally we Lave felt dissatisfied with the state of things around us, and been me pos sessed of the demon ol change. We have moved quite frequently, sometimes att lining superior comfort, and soineiimee. getting rath er the worst of it for ‘ the change.’ A few years ago, in the early spring lime, Mr. Smith said to me one day : 4 1 noUccd in riding out yesterday, a very pleasant country house on the Frankford Road, to let, and it struck me that it would be a fine thing for ite, both as to health and com fort, to rent it for the summer season. What do you think of it ? ’ ‘ I always loved the country, you know,’ was my response. My heart had leaped at the proposition. ‘ it is such a convenient distance from the city,’ said Mr Buiith. * How far ? ’ ‘ About tour miles ’ * Do the paws frequently ? ’ 4 Every half hour; and the fare is on’y twelve and a half cents ’ 4 So low ’ That is certainly an inducement ’ 4 Ye?, it is. Suppose wc go out aud look at 't«e h‘*u»a 1 ’ 4 Very well,’ said 1 And then we talked ove the pica, ure and advantage that would result Iroin a re»'dence in the country at such a convenient distance from the city. On the nezi. day we went to lo'»k at the place, and found inuc.i, both in the house and ground, to attract us. There was a line sha ded lawn, ai d gardm with a stock of small and Urge fruit 4 Wnni a d< I ghifnl place for the children,’ I exclaimed. * And at such a convenient distance from the city,’ sai.i my husband ‘ I can go in and out to business, and scarcely miss the time. But do you think you would like the conn try 1 ’ 4 We can move back into the city when the summer closes,’ said Mr. Smith. 4 Why not remain here permanently ?’ 4 It will be too expensive to kuep both a city and country hou<e,’ I returned. 4 it will no to i dreurv through the winter.’ 4 I don’t ihmk <o. 1 always feel cheeriu! in the country. And. then, you know, the house is at such a convenient distance, ami the stages pass the door at every half hour. You tau get to business as easily us if we reside 1 in (no city.’ I was in the mood of a change, aud so >• happened was Mr. Smith. The more we thought and talked about the matter, the mure inclined were w» to break up iu the city, and go permanently to the country. And, finally, we resolved to try die experirusijt. So the pleasant country house was taken, and the town hou-o given up, and, in dtto time, we took our flight to where nature had just carpeted the earth in freshes green, and caused the buds to expand and (hn trees of the forest to clothe themselves m verdure. How pleasant was everything A gardener had been employed to put the garden and lawn in order, and soon we were delighted to see the first shoo s from seeds that had been planted, making theii way through the ground. To me, all was delightful. I felt almost as light hearted as a child, and never tired ol ex pressing my pleasure at the change. 4 Come and see us,’ said I. to one city friend and another, on meeting them. * We’re in a most delightful place, and at such a convenient distance from the city. Just get into the Frankford omnibus, which starts from Hall’s, in Second street above Market, every half hour, and you will come to our very door. .And 1 shall be so delighted to have a visit from ■ you.’ in moving from the city, I took with me two good domestics, who had lived in my family far over a year. Each had expressed herself as delighted at (he prospect of getting into the • ocuntry, and 1 was delighted to think they were so well satisfied, for I had feared lest they would be disinclined to accompany us. About a month after our removal, one of them, who had look dissatisfied about some- I thing, ca ue to tne and said— • 1 want to go back to the city. Mrs. Smith, I don’t like living in the country.* 4 Very well.’ I replied, *Y on must do as you please But i thought you preferred this to the city.’ 4 1 thought I would like it, but I don’t. It’s too lonesome.’ I did not persuade her to stay. That error I had once or twice, ere this, fallen into, and learned to avoid it in future. So she went back to the city, and 1 was left but with a single girl Tnree days only elapsed before thia o:,e announced her intended departure • But you wrl stay,’ said I, ‘ until 1 can get some one in your place. 4 My week will be up on Saturday,’ was re plied, ‘Can you gel a girl by that lime ? ’ 4 That leaves me only two days, Hannah ; I’m afraid not.’ Hannah look unamiable enough at this an- Rwor. We said no more to each other. In the afternoen I went to the city to find a new domestic, if possible, bu*. returned unsuccess ful. Saturday came, and to my surprise and trou ble, Hannah persisted in going away So I was left, wi h my family of six persons, with- out any domes.tc at all. Sunday proved to me any thing but a day of rest. After washing and dressing the children, preparing breaklast, cleaning away the table, ; making the beds and putting the ho ise in or der I se. abo > getting dinner. This meal fur nished and ca an, ai d the dishes washed and put away. I found myself not only completely tired out, but suffering from a most dreadful ’ headache. I was lying dewn, about four o’-' clock, in a half-waking and s.eeping state, wi h my head a little easier, when my husband, who was siding bv the window, exclaimed— ••lf there isn't Mr. and Mrs. Peter® and their three children, getting out of the stage I” ••No; coming here !” »uid I, starting up m bed, while, at the same moment, my headache returned with a throbbing intessity that almost blinded me. “Yes, coming here !” replied Mr Smith. “How unfortuna-e!” came from my lips; as 1 cia-ped my hands to aiy tempies. Now, Mr. anu Mrs. Peters werepeop e for whom we had no particular friendship. We visited each other scarcely once a juar. and never reciprocated an eveaing to tea. True, I had. on:he occasion of meeting Mrs. Peters about a week before, while stopping in the ‘ city, said to her, white praising my new conn f try home, I "••You must come and see me sometime du- > ring the summer.” r The invitation was intended as a compli ment more than anyUnng else. 1 didn't particu larly care aboot a visit from tier ; and certain ly bad no idea that she would lake ma at my word. So much for insincerity. “Go down and ask them into the parlor,” 4 said Ito .Mr Smith. “I will dress myself ’’ and join you in a liule while.” In about half an hear 1 kft my room, feeding ’’ really quite unwell. I feund ray visitors g walking in the garden, and their cht'dren r ranging about like wi d colts, to the partica d iar detriment of choice snrubbery and garden io beds. r- • Oh. what a delightful p'ace exclaimed ie Mrs Peters, on my meeting her. “1 really dBwyoo! You see that 1 have accepted your very kind invitation I said to my nut band to aay, sava I wouldn't it be n:ce tc make the Smiths a nUt this afternoon The? five at such a convenient distance ; and it wil AUGUSTA, GA., WEDNESDAY’ MORNING, MARCH 19, 1851. be such a treat to the children. Well, just as you like, said Mr. Peters. And so, as soon as dinner was over, we got ready and came out. Oh, I’m delighted .’ What a sweet spot you have chosen. 1 shall eotne and see you • often.” And thus she ran on, while I smiled, and responded with all due politeness, and to a certain extent, hypocritical preten ce of pleas ure at the visit. They had cone to spend the afternoon and t take tea with us, of course, and, as the last stage went by at seven o’clock, I was soon l tinder the necessity of leaving my guests, in > order to engage in certain acts j that looked towards an early supper Oh, > how my head did throb ; and with what an ef fort did I drag my weary feet about! But, the longest trial—the most painful or deal, has au end ; and theend of this came at s length. Our visitors, after spending a few > hours, and being served with tea. took their i I departure, assuring us, as they did so, that they had «>pent a delightful afternoon, and would > be certain to come again. , In ten rnmu es after they left the house I i was in bed. i Two whole weeks elapsed before I sue i cceded in getting a girl ; and six times during • that period, we had friends from the city to P take te* with us; and one young lady spent ' three whole days .’ When the season of fruits came, as we had a few apple and pear trees, besides a s:rawber ry bed, and a fine row of raspberry bushes, our city friends, especial y those who had children, were even mure particular ia their I attention*. Our own children we could make understand the propriety of leaving the small I fruit to be picked for table use, so that all , j could share in its enjoyment. But, visitors’ children comprehend nothing of this, and ri fled our beds and bushes bo constantly that, al- I though they would have given our table a fair supply of berries, in the season we uever - i once could get enough to be worth using, and ■ so were forced to purchase our fruit tn the . city. I After a destructive visitation of this ra- I ture, during s rawberrv tune, I said to Mr. Bm:t t. as he was leaving for the city one moru i ‘ ing— -1 wish you would take a small basket with , you, and bring out two or three quarts of strawberries for tea I’ve ou'y tasted them ■ once or twice, and it’s hopeless to think of get ' , ting any from our garden ” Well, when Mr. Smith came home with his ( two or hree quarts of strawberries, we had ; six women and children visitors from the city to partake of them.

After Colonel Campbell took posee*«uon of Savan nah, in 1778 the whole cou try was overrun j I with irregular marauders, wider and more - ruthless ihan th« Cossacks of the Don. As 1 ( many of tlie inhabitants a* cctild retire frem 1 1 the storm did so, awaiting a happier time to renew (he struggle. One es these who had j . sough refuge in Florida was Mr. Spaulding, ] whose establishments were on the river St. ' > John's. He Dad the whole Indian trade, from < the Aharnana to ti.e Apalachicola.

Under these adverse circumstances, and distressed cn account of the lees of her father and brothers, who had taken arms in the American cause, Mrs. Spaulding performed • ■ her arduous duues with a true woman’s fidelity f and tenderness. Sue followed her husband; ith her child when fl ght became necessary. „ and twi-e during the v. ar traversed the two * . hundre4 miles between Savannah and St. n John’s River in an open boat, with only black servants en board, when the whole country was n a desert, without a house io shelter her and ber infant von.

In January, 1800, 1 she, with her son and his wife, ■ left Savannah in a British ship of ’ twenty guns, with filly men, built in ail to resemble a sloop of war, j without the appearance of a car- . go. When they had been out about j fifteen days the captain sent one morning, at daylight, to request the presence of two of his gentlemen passengers < n deck. A large ship, painted black and showing twelve gun* on a side, was seen to wind ward, running across their course She was obviously a French priva te© r . The captain announced that there was no hope of outsailing her should their course be altered ; nor would there be hope in a conflict, as those ships usually carried one hundred and fifty inen. Yet he judged that if no eflbrt were made to shun the privateer the appear ance of this ship might deter from an attack. The gentlemen were of the same opinion. Mr. Spai-I ding, heart sick at the thought of perilous situation of his wife ane mother, and unwilling to trust him self withan interview till the cr:si> was over, requested the captain to go below and make what pre>- ariiHL !’ f - *ohid so» th;'* • ende a most*touching scene. Mrs. Spalding had placed her daughter-in law and the other inmates of the cabin, for safely, in two state rooms, filling the berths with coals and bedding from the outer cabin. She had then taken her own station beside the scuttle which led from ths outer cabin to the magazine, with two buckets of water. Having noticed that the two cabin boys were heedless, she had determined herself to keep watch over the magazine. She did so till the danger wa past. The captain took in his light aaile, hoist ed his boarding nettings, opened his ports und stood on upon his course. The privateer waited until the ship was within a mile, then fired a gun to windward, and stood on her way. This ruse preserved the shio. The in cident may serve to show the spirit of this matron, who also bore her high part in the per ils of the revolution.” Venice.—There is no ci y like it in the world.

Paper —The materia s upon which man kind have contrived to display their sentiments to the eye, have, in different ages and in differ ent eoun rtes. been extremely various. Tr>e most ancient were stone and plates of me al.— Tables of wood, particularly of cedar, were afterwards used. Tfie«e were followed by tn blets. written on, according to the fashion of the time, either with iron bodkius, the bones •f birds, or reed pens. The papyrus was next invented. Ii was formed of the interior of the stalks of the papyrus.a p ant abund tnt ly produced in Egvpt. The date of its dis covery is still in dispute, though there is strong evidence of its having been ised iu Egypt ‘4OOO years before the Christian era. It whs generally employed as a writing material down to the end of the century. Parchment was the nest material used It had been invented some ten centuries previous, but was not ex tensively employed uulii tbe eighth century es our era. Parchment, cn accGnnt of its great durability, is still used upon all important occa sions. The next improvement in paper was its manufacture from cotton.

The Mosaic account of the Creation* Prof. Mitchel's Lectures.— ln his second lecture—already briefly noticed in our columns i —the Professor in detail, eloquently and lucid ’ ly, alluded to the process of tho French aatron i omer, and the contemporaneous calculations of Adams in England, in pointing nut the ’ precis© place in the heavens to which astrono i mors might direct their telescopes, and behold ' a new and as yet unknown planet. Although i this discovery has been variously discussed and often explained in the public journals du ring the last four years, no audience has per haps met an exposition so clear, connected and pertinently and forcibly stated. Subsequent investigations had net verified the perfect ac curacy of the prediction of Le Verrier. Still fits extraordinary power as a Geome’or. and the herculean task he accomplished, in begin ning de novo, an entirely new examination of the planetary worlds, and the fact, that a new world was found nearly in the spot ho pointed out, hud justly wreathed for him an unfading laurel. Had he marked the place of this new planet with even less of mathematical preci sion, the honor of tne discovery would have been given to him alone. He then discussed the harmony between the Mosaic account of the Croatian, as given in Grenceis, and some of the mere import-nt truths disclosed by modern discoveries in As ronomy—ail of which ware in elucidation and in direct proof of the inspiration of the Bible. So far from invalidating it, every ray of light Ahich came to u« from tho new discoveries in his science, seemed to him to converge in a ’’;“ct focal light to prove its inspiration with ' ithout admiuiug it as tno true theory of the formation of our system* he explained briefly the Nebular Hypothesia. This theory suppo ses that the sun once filled the entire orbit of the most remote planet, which row is Neptune —an orbit of six hundred thousand mil'ion miles in diameter; that out of a mighty mass of matter tu thia nebulous stats a system Idea oars has been formed. This maos once put id motion, and left to itself, would soon assume a globular fcrao, as water or aay other liquid. The effect of this rotary motion might be illustrated as follews:—A ball attached to a cord, and put in rotary motion, will draw upon tho cord, and the baud or the point to which it ia attached, with more and more power as the motion is increased. Now take this iiameuse miss, and attach it to a radius in space, and it will go on moving mors rapidly. As the motion increases, the surface will tend to fly off*. If the motion of the earth wore seventeen limes more rap’d, there would be an exact counter-bahnce with gravitation, and, if it increased, things would riy off. The equator of the revolving mass would come oft', and. in niseteen cases out of twenty, it would be a ring. It now becomes a planet, aud the sun has power to keep it iu ► pace. As ages roll away, another flies off, and becomes stable. The first planet will move in the orbit of the equator at the time it came off, and in the direction of that body, and hence we account far the fact that all the planets move in the same direction Now in re erencc te the account of the Cre ation given by Moses, if we adopt tho general ly believed opinion, that God began the crea tion about seven thousand years ago, then vve must admit that He caused this immense river of light, which is now being poured on the earth, to flash forth instantaneously ; otherwise the light from many of the stars would not yet hase reached us. since, in some cases, it re quires many thousands of years. Such an admission would be doing violence to nature. All the processes of formation and growth ia nature were gradual. We are told that in the beginning God cre ated the heavens aud the earth. We know no? when this beginning was, and the arithmetic of heaven only can tell. If you fix the time to be about seven thousand years since, then you cannot reconcile it with the secund verse, for here it is said that the earih was without form and void. If you wished to describe thi*i mass as it then existed, you could not have selected better terms. Ono step farther and it is said that darkness was on the ace of il e deep, all was sunken in darkness and not a ray had yet broken on tho face of the earth. Motion and gravity were both unknown as yet Now we com© tn the second grand movement, and the spirit of God moved upon the face of the wa ters; another step, and God *aid let there be light. Here we have one of th3 most sublime expressions th. it was ever used oy any writer Did tho light fl ish through, or d'd it come gra dually the mis* condunaed 1 IT our theory be right, here is where light must have appear ed. The mass hud become ao condensed that it had just arrived at tint point from which it could evolve light. Wo now arrive at tho end of the first day’s creation, and wh it are wo to understand by the term day a* 11 aJ hero? It cannot have, the meaning whic*. is ordinarily given it. W« now como to the third great pe riod, whan God divided tho waters from the waters.

The grass, herbs, and the fruit trees aru now brought forward. Thai such was lhe condition, ia such by thu revulatioas uiade by tke earth. But we now hasten to the fourth great period, when the I’ghis are created on the fourih day. This atatesweiit he eaid had perplexed many a wiser head than his. It was his opinion that the aimunphere surrounding this globe was not then condensed as new, and that this condensation must have taken place before these luminaries were visible. If you look at the sun now, you will find an immense atmosphere «urrounding it. Bat we were told that these were given us for “signs and for setons.” How wonderfully is the assertion of this verse verified ! How utterly impose! hie would it he to mark die progress of time without these. By them we tread the labyrinth of time, and go back and stand with the as tronomer of eld, and view the same heavens that he aid; by them we are also enabled to stand with the astronomer of future years, and view the heavens. The above is merely an outline of the train of thought in this lecture, which scarcely dees justice to the lecturer or his subject. Domestic Life iu Germany. “There is certainly a kind of simplicity about these Gormans, which one does not see in America,” I thought to myself, as I sat in my friend’s parlor, in a oemfortab’e house, looking out ovei the Alster. It was rhe house of a man of fortune, a retired merchant; yet the whole, though bearing marks of a cultiva ted tasta, stowed a very remarkable plaincss. The par’or tn which I sal—a high, handsome room. with prettily painted ceiling and tasteful papering—had no carpet The ferniturewas plain ; there was ne grand display of gilt and crimson anywhere; and it was evident very little had been laid out on mere splendor. Yet one could net but netico how carefully even very common implements had been chosen with reference to grace of form. The candle standi, the shade lamps, and even the pitcher, or the common vase, had something exceed ingly graceful and almost “classical” in their shape. Th • pictures on the walls ortho table were net expensive—often mere sketches; yet they were very pleasant to look at, and had not hewn placed there, evidently, mere’y be cause ‘ pictures rr.uft be hung in every respec table parlor.” The groups of the daguerreo type showed the same traits; not formidable ranks of stiff forms, but easy groups around some animal, or in same natural position. There were flowers, too, everywhere ; and especially that most graceful of all fl»wer-pots. which I bare seen alone in Germany, though I believe it came from Italy, called the “.Imps/,” It i« simply a half vase, very much like the old Grecian lamp, hung with cords from the ceiling, with some flowering vine in it, which twinesand wreaths around it; yet the beauty of it all can hardly be imagined. P rhaps the only exception in thia hou-e to the general good :aste, was ths high white Berlin stoce. looking hke a porcelain tower wi h gilt battlements; but possibly on; who is accustomed to our quiet, sombre machines, must need a little dis cipline to get to these gay articles. Nearly every bouse I have visited in Ham burg has been without carpets, though of course many are so only during the summer. Ono notices the same kind of simplicity every where. People do not spend as much money aa those of the same rank would in America Men of the higher chases travel in away a Hernan would be ashamed to with us. In my mode of travelling I have gore much in the third class cars and cheap conveyances, nnd I have been surprised al the respectable class of persons one finds in them, iu company with the "Banner.” Students, you know, in Ger many always take the third class cars. It was only the other day that, travelling in thia way, 1 n.3t a gentleman from one vs the first litera ry families of Germany, a personal friend of ' Chevalier B*jn«>n, who evidently thought it no more etranae that be shou’d econnmise by travelling with the peisaau, than that he wore woolen instead of satin. I talked with him a ' ht'le in regard to it, and he said ha was thankful _ “there were very few circles yet in Germany 1 where poverty wm a disgrace?” Tftis gen ‘ Hemau meant to live iu one of the principal c ues of Prussia and have, as he said,‘ all the p ! easuresof a gentleman,” such a* music, and the e-ijoywents of arts and society, for about S2OO a year * And lam disposed to think, • from al toy observe*, io a, that throughout Eu ■ rope the middle classes spend less money, and • are contented to retire from business with lesj, 1 ’han the name classes in our country. Os • course, when one comes to the higher classes J uu comparison can be made. But among ths *. lawyers, and merchants, and literary men, 1 there is much less money circulating, and it is I made with considerable more difficulty; so that naturally there wou'd be a difference in 8 tiie spending of it. I have heard Amerioaos fe sometim is call the Germans mean in money • ma-.tors. but I think it has been from an igno- II rance of thia fact. For certainly in all that be > longs to hospitality, and kind, liberal treatment 15 of strangers, they are beyond any people 1 >! have ever met. But the more I see them, and >r especially those of the cui ivated classes, the n mare lam surprised at thia trait I mentioned 1 above—this simplicity, and this opeuh&artcd e good nature, or “GatmuPag&eit,” as toey call ‘d it For al these qualities are connected, and they certainty give an aspect to the German character which scarcely any other nanon has. I have sometimes thought something of the p- tame tai s appeared in their literature, one ns flails so hit e sumie wit or honor in it; and whoa wit does appear, it is so broad or gro tesque that one could hardly call it wit. For 1 instance, no Punch could ever be sustained among tho Germans at the present day ; and ' I believe no satiriat like cither Swift or Dickens > 1 has over appeared among them lam not dis posed to attach quite as much value to this i “good nature” of the Germans as I did once. : 1 It seems rather the result of circumstances than of any hard struggle with ‘ bad nature.” ’ The nation has long been in a ©ituatien where they were shut out from many of the most ' absorbing and intense struggles of life; and 1 their activity has expended iteeif very much on j abstract subject. They have become easy and good-natured because there was so little to dis turb them. However, this is mere theorising, and may be taken lor what it is worth We should remember in regard to lhe econ omy of the Germans, that it is not a mere at tempt to save money lor the sake of saving. . It seems to bo merely the choosing of one class of pleasures rather than another. The Haus frau prefers being without an expensive carpet for the sake of having many tasteful objects around her, or that she may have more means for social company. Tne gentleman goes on tho fore-deck of the steamboat, so that he may have more money for the next concert, or may be able to fill his library belter.—C. S. in lhe Independent. The Norman Face.—The beauty of the Norman is a proverb all over the world. Nor has the universal admiration bestowed upon it inthe slighted degree exaggerated its lofty and exquisite character. The men, in their way, are as handsome as the women. They have the fine oval face, sedate, bright ©yes, and dear complexion of the eld raoe. You U*»ok in ' • ii.n of ibeir Teutonic decent in these sculptured features; the skin and hair alone suggesting a remiitisesnee of their Saxon ancestry. The women are remaikable for the natural digoity of their carriage, which harmonizes strikingly with their tall and commanding figures, and the gravity and reserve of their expression. Like lhe men their faces are oval, with the slightly acquiliue nose, large flashing eyes, and curved lips. Their complexions are peculiarly transpa rent, the cheeks mantling over with a blush, rich in color, but delicate in its diffusion. A smile sits in their eyas, but the most inquisi tive observer cannot delect in their looks or manners the remotest indication of levity. A sweet seriousness is their predominant char acteristic It is strange enough to an English manto meetgroups of these people, men and women, reproducing before our eyes that famous Norman head with which we all are so familiar. It carries us back at once to the eleventh century. Wherever we turn, we see. as in a magic glass, William the Conquer or moving up lhe streets and highways.— Bayside Pictures, in Bentley's Miscellany. Compliment to American Ship Builders —An English mercantile house in New l r ork received by lhe Pacific orders from parlies is England to have a clipper ship of 1,100 tuns built in this country. Tne admirable running qualities of the clipper line between our pons and San Francisco seems to have waked up the English merchants, and the receipt of such an order hero is a tracit acknowledgement of the superior skill of Anrricau shipwrights. We may also mention, as another complimen tary circumstance, lhe fact that the British Government lias chartered tho American clip per ship Raman, to convey troops to Bombay. Balt. Sun.

Newnan Seminary.—During court week at Newnan, we had the pleasure of visiting the Seminary, and are constrained lo say, in our opinion it will favorably compare with any similar institution in the S'ate, or indeed in the Sjuth The principal Mr. M P. Kellogg, has spared no pains or reasonable expense to famish the institution with suitable Apparatus —among which, we were pleased to notice Wightman’s Improved Leslie Air Pump, with the accompaniments, in which is a High Lifter of sufficient power t7 raise a man by pressure of Air.

England.— Liverpool, 22d Fob., 1851.—Tho political nows is interesting in tho extreme. On Monday the Cheneellor of Exchequer brought his *• budget’ before the House of Commons, from which it appeared that the surplus revenue for the year, was £2,500 000, nearly half of which he proposes to apply r.o the liquidating of the National debt. With the remaining portion es the surplus, he deals as follows: He proposes to abolirb the windew duty altogether, which produced £1,800,060 and ho imposes a henae duty which is estimated to yield £1,100.060. All houses uuder £2O a year arc to be exempt from the duty; those above£2o a year are to pay two- birds of the amount now paid for window duty. New Hanses above the value of £2O, are hereafter to be charged at the rate of five per cent., excepting shop and farm aauds, which, in certain cases, will only pay 9d on the pound. By this arrangement, he contends 160,000 houses will be exempted frees taxation altogether. The duty on coffee of all kinds is to be reduced from six pence to three pence per lb., and foreign chicory is to be charged the same duty as coffee. The loss to the exchequer is calculated at £l7O 000. This is considered tube the most judicious feature in the budget. To encourage the ship building, the Chancellor proposer to remit half lhe duty on foreign timber, the loss on which wll be £2BO 000. The reduction of lhe differential duty on sugar this year, w’ill entail a loss of £330,000. The other remissions are £3O 000 on seeds used by farmers, and £150,000 at present incurred by lhe agricultural districts for the conveyance of pauper lunatics, which is to be transferred to lhe consolidated fund. Ho also proposes to continue the income tax for another three yean?, and with these state ments callfl upon the House to sanction the es timates. The debate upon the main features of the budget was to have taken place last night, but Lord John Russel begged amid the pro found silence of tho House, to have it post poned until Monday next. This motion wan agreed to. The following is a copy of the address pre - sented to Her Majesty in tho Royal closet on the 1 Ilia ult., by the Lords Vaux* Dormer, and Lovat, and signed by 400,000 English Catho lics: “ To the Queen’s Moat Excellent Majesty.— May it please your Majesty, we, the undersigned, eubjects of your Majesty, residing in England, and proft ssing the Roman Catholic religion, beg to ap proach your Majesty’s throne, there to express our sentiments of unimpaired and unalterable fide'ity to your Ma jesty’s Royal person, Crown and dignity. “ At a moment when attempts are being made to impeuch our loyalty, we consider it a duty to give fresh utterance to these our feelings. “ During centuries of exclusion from the privileges of the constituiioß, and from tha rights enjoyed by the r fellow subjects, lhe Catholics of England re mained true to their allegiance to the Crown of this realm, and yielded to none in their readiness at all limes to defend i(s rights and its prerogatives against every fee. And now that, under your Majesty’s wi* e rule, we enjoy equal participation with others in the benefits of the constitution, wc are more than ever animated with the same sentiments of fidelity and attachment, and are equally ready lo give proof, when occasion may present itself, of the sincerity of cur loyal professions. “ The dearest of the privileges to which we have thus been admitted by the wisdom of the British Le gislature is that of openly professing and practicing the religion of our lathers, in communion with the See of Rome. Under its teaching we have over learnt as a most sacred lesson to give to Caasar. as wo give to God the things that are of God. In what ever. therefore, our Church has nt any time done for establishing itt- regular system of goverament awioog rirs inernbmtTiWx beg roost fervently nd ? nnsi Kin merely, to Mai city that ths organization granted to us is and its authority purely spiritual. 41 But it leaves untouched every title of your Majes ty’s rights, authority, power, jurisdiction and prero gative, as our Sovereign and ae Sovereign ovsr these realms, and does not in the least wi-e diminish or impair our profound reverence, our loyalty fidelity and attachment te your Majesty’s august person and throne. And we humbly assure your Majesty that among your Majesty’s subjects there exists no class who more solemnly, more continually, or more fer- vently pray for the stability of your M• jetty’s throne, for the preservation of your M ijesty’s life, and for the profperitv of your Majesty’s empire, than the Cathcltca es Rngland. in whon religion loyalty is a Mori>d dsty and obedience a Christian virtue ” Ilia Excellency, the American Minister, and Mrs. Aho t Lawrbiice had a grand reception on Thursday night at the Ametiean Legation in Piccadilly, London ; and no withstanding the unfavorable state of th * weather, Hot less th in 400 personages of rank graced the beautiful saloons of the legation by their presence.

We in ll formed our readers.-, last week, of the re»olu g cion taken at Dresden, under the sar ction <»f h he Emperor ot Russia, to admit Austria into ii the new German Confederition, with all her i.
