ADVICE TO A VOIIUNO LA VVVEE.
B* THE LATE JUDOE tTOMV.
Whunt’er you speak, remember every cause
Simula not on eloquence, but aland, on few.—
Pregnant in matter, in eprnffi n bri. f,
Lm every sentence aland willi bold relief,
On iritiing poili e, nor lime, nor talenta waste,
A sad offence to learning and to taate /
Nor deal with pomnous phrase,’ nor e’er suppose
Poetic flights befeng to reasoning prose.
Loose declamation may deceive the crowd,
And seem more striking, as if g*ys mere loud ;
But sober sense rejects it wnh cjTdain,
As nought but empty noise, and weak as vain,
l'he froth of words, the schoolboy’s vaiu psrade
Os books and eases—all his slock in trade
The pert conceits, Ihe cum ing tricks and plav
Os tow attorneys, strung in long array,
The unseemly jest, the petulant reply.
That chatters on, and cares not tiow or wliv,
S udions, avoid—unworthy themes to scato
They sink the Speaker, anti disgrace the man.
L ke the false lights, by flying shadows enst,
Scatce seen when present, and for ot when past.
Begin with dignity; expound with grace
Each ground of reasoning in ns ttmn and place ;
l.et order reign throughout—each topic touch,
Nor urge its power 100 little or toe intleh
Give each strong thought its most M arctive view.
In diction clear, and yet severely true.
And as the arguments in splendor grow,
Let each reflect its agiit on all below.
When to the close arriv* and, make no delays
By prettv flourishes, or verbal pi- vs.
But sutn the whole in one deep solemn strain,
Like a strong current hastening to the main.

JUGGLERS OP INDIA.
STlic convetuion of a fitetid recently arrived front
ia enables us lo notice one or two of the surprts
mg performances ot the jugglers of that cmtnirv,
which, though familiar to persons acquainted with
eastern masters may he new to many of Ihe readers
of tho,e pages.
A parly of jugglers came forward on one
occasion to pertorm publicly in the yard ol
the barracks of Madras. Many hundred Os
people, of all kinds, ages and denominations,
including the soldiery of the es'ablislunent,
assembled to witness the exhibition, and
some little temporary arrangements were
made that all might hear conveniently.—
The leader of the jugglers, who were all, ol
course, natives of Hmdostan, requested the
commanding officer to place a guard of men
around the scene of display—a precaution
which was adopted, aud proved a very wise
one. The floor of the court, be it observed,
was composed of sand, fi in and well trodden.
On this ground then, after some preliminary
tricks ol an inferior kind, one mail was left
alone with a little girl, the latter seeming
about Bor 9 years old. Beside them stood a
tail narrow basket, perhaps a or 4 leet high,
by little more than a foot to w idth, and open
at the top. No other object, living or inani
mate, appeared upon the ground. Altera
short period spent by the man in conversing
with the girl, be seemed to get angry, and
began to rati loudly at her for ti6r neglect of
some wish of It is. The child attempted to
soothe him, but he continued lo show an
increased degree of irritation as he went on.
By degrees lie lashed himself into such appa
rent lury that the foam actually stood on his
lips, and being naturally ol an unprepossess,
ing countenance, he looked to the while
spectators at least as like an enraged demon
as might be. Finally his wrath at the girl
rose seemingly loan uncontrollable height ;
and he seized her and pul her beneath the
basket or rather turned the opeu mouth of
the basket over her person. She was thus
shut entirely up. the turned bottom cf the
basket closing her in above. Having thus
disposed of the child, spite of her screams and
entreaties, the man drew his sw< rd, which
was as bright as the surface of a mirror, and
he appeared as it about to wreak some fur
ther evil on the object of his ire. Aud after
somtunomcnls, during which he talked to
hiinseiratid to the enclosed girl, as if justify
ing his anger, he did actually at length plunge
the sword dowrn into the basket and drew it
out dripping with blood, or at least blood ed
drops! Tlte child screamed piteously forth
from her prison, but in vain ; for the man
plunged the weapon again and again into the
scene of tier confinement. Ashe did so,'he
cries of the girl became faint by l 'degrses, and
in the end died away altogether. The field
of death was consummated.
So,at least, thought most of the horror
struck persona who witnessed this action;
And w ell it was for the chief performer in it
that he requested a guard to be placed, for it
required all the exertions of this guard to
prevent the aroused soldiery, who believed
iliislo be no trick, but a diabolical butchery,
Iron, leaping into the arena aud tearing the
man to pieces. The excitable irishmen
among the number in particular, ground their
teeth against one another, and uttered lan
guage not very complimentary to the juggler.
Even ihe officers, whose better education and
experience made them less open to such
feelings, grew pale with uneasiness. But
observe the issue of all this.
When the man seemed to have carried his
rage to the last extremity, warned, perhaps,
by the looks of the soldiers that it would be
as well to close the exhibition without delay,
ho raised his bloody sword fur a moment
before (he eyes of the assemblage, and then
struck the basket smartly with it. The
basket tumbled over on a side, and on the
spot which it had covered, in place of the
expected corps of the girl whose last groans
hadjusl been beard, there w as seen—nothing!
No vestage of dress, or any other thing to
indicate that the girl had ever been there.--
The amazement of the spectators was un
bounded, and it was if possible, rendered
more intense, when, after the lapse of a lew
seconds, the identical little girlcame bounding
from the side of the court yard—from among
the spectators feet, it seemed, and clasped
the juggler around the knees, with every
sign ol affection, and without the slightest
marks of having undergone sny injury
whatever. We have said the astonishment
of the assembly was immeasurable ; and it
might really well be so, seeing that the feat
was performed in tiie centre of a court every
point of the circumference of which was
crowded with spectators whose eyee were
never off the performers for one instant. As
to the notion of a subterranean passage, the
nature of the ground put that out of the
question, and, besides, that nothing of that
kind existed was made plain tn all who
choose to satisfy themselves on the subject,
by looking at the scene of performances when
they had closed. Every one was sure that
the girl had been put below the basket, and
that she did not get out of it in the natural
way. Out site did get out, and how 1 It is
impossible to say, though there can be no
doubt that it was accomplished by some skill
ful manoeuvre.
A somewhat similar feat is sometimes
performed with animals. A juggler will
place a lean dog below one of the baskets,
and presio, pass ! when lie lifts up you will
behold a litter of as fine pups as ever whip
pei in ooulddesiie. But most people will
probably think the tree-trick a more wen
detlul one than any of these. A juggler in
performing ibis, chooses either a smalt spot
of earth, of the extent of two or three feet
[square, and fills it with mould lor his pur
pose. Either of rhe ways will do. Having
this small plat of earth before him, and his
spectator ranged around at ad is'a nee of
two or three feet, the juggler shows to (he
company a mango stone, or the stone found
in the centre t f the eastern fruit known by
that name; w hich variesin size from that of
an apple upward. This stone the juggler
then plants in the earth at the depth of s@v_
eral incites, and covers it up. Not many
minutes elapse until the spectators behold a
gfeeti shoot atise from the spot. It in
creases visibly in height and sizeevey mo
ment, until it attains the altitude ofa foot
or so. It then begins to send off branches
from the main stein ; on the branches leaves
begin to appear, bearing the natiiral hue of
vegetation. Buds next present themselves,
the whole affair, meanwhile, assuming tho
regular aspect in evety particular, ofa
miniature 11-ee solne (bur feet high. Tho
hutls are followed by blossoms, and finally
the green fruit of the mango meets tho as
tonished eyes of all the spectators. “Look,
nut touch not,” is all time the juggler’s
word, and he himself also preserves tlm
character of a looker on. When the fruits
have arrived at something like a far growth
for such a tree, the originator of this extra
ordinary vegetation plucks it and hands it to
the spectators. This is the winding up of
the charm. The assembled persons handle
the fry it, and see nothing in it, the slightest
degree different front the ordinary produce
of the mango, elaborated by the slow vege
tation ot months. Our informant on these
points ate a portion of the fruit brought
lourth by this jugglery, and found it to taste
exactly like the raw mango. The whole
process now detailed, usually occupies a
quarter ofan hour, from the planting of tho
slor.e to tht production oftlie Iruir. Thounlt
lie gives away the li uit; the perlbrmer doM
not part with the tree. This feat which is
perfectly familiar lo all who have been in
India, is certainty an extraordinary one, anp
affords the most effectual evidence oftlm
power of deception to which the race of
jugglers has attained.
A society has been lormed by certain cari
itali.-ts to forth a winter garden in Baris, com
posed of the ra.esl exotics and the choicest
indigenous plants. Jn the Champs Klysees,
not far from the palace built by Madame Leon,
is sitnaleit an establishment less luxurious
there is no indication, no bill to attract tho
oromenadere. The “wintergarden” ia in
the course of completion, and so little obser
vation has it yet excited, that I doubt whether
it has yet received its name; but, in the
meantime, ail hands are busy ; plants are be
ing selected from every part, ami individuals
are collecting floral rarities in Belgium and
America, la tw o months it is expected to be

Prf.ttt Good. —A correspondent of the
Independent Monitor, (Tuscaloosa,) who
la:ely visiled Washington City, objects to the
nudity of the Indian girl in Pers.co’s group,
representing the landing of Columbus.
This reminds us (says the State Journal
and Flag) of the old maid, who* after readinf
the account of the gallant rescue of Miss
Onslow, from the wreck of the Pulaski, by a
Mr. Ridge; to whom she was afterwards
married, and brought a fortune of 8200,000
remarked that Miss Onslow might be very
pretty and a great heiress, but for her own
part, she had rather be drowned any time
than be saved by silting alone on a piece ofa
wreck, with a young man, in her night gown/
V ery much like the Monitor’s critic was the
bashful young man who lately took some la
dies to see Powers’s beautiful statue of our
first mother. Seeing her standing before
them as large as life, and twice as natural,
be blushed immediately, and turning to tho
ladies, said hastily, “We’ve called too early.
She is not dressed yet. Let’s evacuate!”
THE DEATH LAMP.
A person writing from France mentions
the followig curious scene which presented
itsell on his visit to the vaults of the church
of St. Denis, in which the French kings are
entombed: “But the most singular of all
things is a lamp, which is kept burning on
the coffin of Louis 18th, and which, it is
said, is to be continued until Louis Philippo
die.—he being the next King (if he dies on
Ins throne) to whom the lamp will pass, un
til his successor dies Napoleon did not die
on the throne, neither did Charces 10th : con
sequently Louis 18th has not been buried
neither has the lamp ever been aloyved to go
out. It looks drear/ and dark as midnight
in the vault, and I involuntarily shuddered
as I looked through the iron grating into the
chamber of death aud viewing the dark pall
upon the tomb. The light of the lamp was
more like a star flickering through a dark
cloud. It was indeed the chamber of death.”
matrimonial agency.
Though we do not exactly follow in the
footsteps of the French and establish “ ma
trimonial agency offices,” we understand,
says the N. Y. Mirror, that the agency busi
ness, is nevertheless carried on to some ex
tent in this city, by private individuals. We
heard last night of a gentleman who has ac
tually undertaken to procure one of ourheir
esees, who is said to be worth $300,000 for
a friend of his, and that a regular contract
has been signed, agreeing to giro him 10 per
cent on the amount of her fortune upon the
performance of his part of the contract. We
are informed that contracts of this kind are
by no means uncommon. Young ladies of
fortune are little aware of the secret infer
esteomeof their friends take in promotim.
their matrimonial prospects. °
The following quaint epitaph was written
on the tomb-stone of a youth, at Frith, in
Derbyshire, England. The comparison is
seasonable: ,

Some wag took a drunken fellow, placed
him in a coffin with the lid left so he could
raise it, placed him in a grave yard, and waited
to see the effect. Afterachort time the fumes
