“NO POETRY IN RAILWAYS.”
No poetry in railways! foolish thought
Os a dull brain, to no fine music wrought, 1
By though-tiio people prize -
The gold alone, yet si,all we not despise
The triumphs of our tune, or fail to see
Os pregnant mind the fruitful progeny
Ushering the day fight of world’e new morn.
Look up, ye doubters, be no more forlorn.
Smooth your rough brows ye'lifctjo wiser rejoice -
Ye who despond: and with exulting voice
Salute, ye earnest spirits of our time, ‘ ~ ■ ’
Tlio young improvement ripening to her prime,
Who, m t.ie fullness of her genial youth,
Prepares the way for freedom aud for truth,
And bieaks the barriers that, since earth began,
Have ipade mankind a foreigner to man.
Lay down your rails, ye nations, near and far:
Yoke your foil trains to steam’s inumpha);
Link.towfi t town; and in these Jiron 1 bands
Unite the estranged and oft-embattied lands.
Peace and improvement round each train shall soar,
Aud knowledge light the ignorance-of yore;
Men, joined in amity, should wonder'long~
That hate had power to lead their fafhers wrong;
Or that false glory led their hearts astray,
And made it virtuous and sublime to slay.
Blessings on science ! When earth seemed old,
When Uitn grew doting, and tiie season coid,
’Twns uncovered that lire world was young,
And taught a language lo its lispingkoiigue : ~
’Twas she disclosed a future to its view,
Aud made old knowledge pale before tbe new.
Blessings on science 1 In her dawning hour
Faith knit her brow, alarmed for ancient power;
Then looked again upon her face sincere,
Held out her hand, and hailed her sister dear;
And reason, free as eagle on the wind,
Planed o’er the fallow meadows of the mind,
And clear of vision, saw what she would grow
011 the hill slopes, or in the vales below;
What in the sunny South or nipping North,
And from the talons dropped it as she soared.
Blessings on science, and her handmaid,steam!
They make Utopia only half a dream;
And show the ferven* and capacious souls,
Who watch the ball of progress as it rolls,
That all as yet completed, or begun,
Is but tub dawning that precedes the sun.

THE POTATO PANIC. •
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in
Ireland to a friend in Baltimore, dated Nov.
30,1845 :
*’ I suppose you imagine from the newa
papar accounts that we shall all starve m
Ireland before next harvest. No such thing
is feared here, es there is quite a plenty of
pl-ovisions in the country if they are left in it.
A great deal of the potato rotted ;
but even if one fourth ofthe whose was lost,
(whiqh I doubt,) there is*y et au average one
remaining sound, as, in the memory of man,
there has never been such ah abundant one,
both as to the quantity planted and the return
from the planting.*
“ 1 had from thrte English acres of land
about eight thousand stone of potatoes—
(stone 14 lbs.)—in quality like flour ; nor
did I lose, eight, stone out ofthe whole of
them, having taken timely precautions. The
best-arc now selling in this market at 2£d.
(5 cents) per stone.”
The Law or the Finger Ring.—ls a
gentleman wants a wife, he wears a ring on
the huger of the left hand ; if he is engaged,
he wears it on the second finger; if married,
on the third ; and on the fourth, if he never
intends to get married. When a lady is not
engaged, she wears a hoop or diamond on her
first finger ; if engaged, on the second ; if
married, on the third ; and on the fourth, if
site intends to be a maid. When a gentleman
presents a fau, a flower, or trinkets to a lady,
with the left hand, this, on ins part, is.an
overture of regard ; should she receive it
with the left hand, it is considered as an
acceptance of his esteem ; but if with the
right hand, it is a refusal of tbe offer. Thus,
by a few simple tokens, explained by rule, the
passion of love is expressed.

The Head opjßichelieu.—T he head of the
chief Minister of a great nation must be an
object of dead or pbva,
and none more so ihiMi that of the “real tvich
elieu—from which emanated such ledoubta
ble combinations and resuits of genius, and
intellectual power; among the latter, for in
stance, the abasement of the Austrian power
in Europe to its just level, and the downfall
of tfe proud aristocracy of his owu France.
This head at present forms the chief feature
of attraction of a cabinet of curiosities pos
sessed by a member of the present French
Chamber of Deputies, M. Armez, and is oc
casionally.but very rarely shown t o his friends,
with a mystery becoming the fact of its verv
equivocal possession—or rather, the right to
6uch possession.
The history of this curious relic is as fol
lows : “It is well known that the Sorbonne
owed its existence to the tnuniticient liberality
of Richelieu, and'that at his death he was,
by his own previously expressed desire.’butrieJ
there, in the chapel attached to the establish
ment. His monument, containing the mor
tal remains of the great Minister, is still
shown there, but the head is wanting ; and
it is understood that during on#of trio most
terrible days of the Iteigu of Terror, the Pa
ris uiob entered the chapel where ilur monu
ment was situated; bfoko open the tomb, sev
ered the head from the body, as that of ‘a
traitor to the Majesty of.tue People,’and bore
it about the streets of Paris on a pike. The
father of M. Agmez, the present possessor of
the head, witnessed thp exhibition above de
scribed, and feeling a strong interest in the
relic, watched it with the utmost care, from
place to place, uihil the public, tired of their
plaything, abandoned it to his, possession.—
lie preserved it during his life-time with the
utmost care, and at his death left it as a lega
cy to his son, the present possessor.
“It is said that the head, even in its present
shrivelled state, bears a remarkable resem
blance to the authentic portriit of the great
Cardinal Minister. We are further assured
that it baa lately been aquestiou whether the
possession of the relic may not become a
subject for the exercise of the talents of the
gentlemen of the long robe in Paris, the title
of its present possessor being a very doubtful
one.”

We learn from a letter just received from
Germany, that the Congress of .the Zolh
Verein States is to convene early next year
at Berlin, when it is tery certain the doty
on English twist will be increased from two
to lour rix thalers per zoll centner. This
measure, at no distant period, will open a
large tnaikct for our cotton-wool, thus taking
the control of prices from English manufac
turers and English speculators. The fluc
tuations in the value of the article would be
infinitely less frequent if We could create
more markets for it, instead of our being
confined to Liverpool. The time has striv
ed when we must support our liberal cus
tomers, who are writhing under the exigent
commercial policy of Great'Biitaii*. Let
ns aid them to make their own twist, instead
of forcing them to purchase it, to the value
0f512,000,000 or 13,000,000, from the
spinners of York and Lancaster. As they
putchase our tobacco freely, let us enable
them to pay sot it in their own products as
far as possible.— Union.
The Magnetic Telegraph.—We un
derstand that the line of telegraph from
Philadelphia to New York (twi wires) will
probably be completed next week. But it
will scarcely be in operation uulil a week

until they have all broken out —[i6.
Outrageous —We find the following
going the rounds of the papers. Doubtles* it
was invented by some crusty old bachelor
who should have the “canons of the church’ -
fired off at him for hie manifold ungallamry :
“It is said that a girl was struck dumb at
Pittsfield by the firing of a cannon. Since
then a number of married men, says an ex
change, have invited the artillery to discharge
their pieces on then- premises.”

TIIE WAREHOUSE SYSTEM;
This subject, first brought prominently be
fore the countryi by Lu Maury of the Navy,
in a seiics of articles in the Southern Liter
ary Messenger, under the signature of
••Harry Bluff',” is beginning lo attract gen
eral attcution, and has been made the sub
ject of especial recommendation to Congress
by the Secretary of Ihe Treasury.
Its advantages to the country at large and
particularly to Southetn Cities, are clearly
set forth in the following article Ironi the
Sew Orleans Delta.
TEE WAREHOUSE SYSTEM.
Aiqocg ISij him imporiu-s matters brought to the

of the EjtcroUrv is c ear, and strongly in fa
tor of the system. Ife •ays;
“If the ca-n duiips are retained, a* it is believed
they should be. the only sure method of rie'.oring this
trade ie ike adoption ofthe warehousing system, by
wharh the foreign imports may be kept in store by
ilie government until they ate required for re eipor
-lat ion abroad, or consumption at hotur—in which
latior couiingt ccy, aid at the time when for that pur
pose they are taken out of these stores for consump
tion, the duties are paid, ami, if re-exported, they
pay no duly,hut only the expense of storage. Under
the present system, the merchant introduces foreign
tmporu of the valup of SIOO,OOO. He must now,
be-idvs the advance for the good* make a further
advance m cash, in mai\y cases of $50,000, for the
duties. Under such a .system, but a smalt amount
of goods will be imported for drawbacks; and ths
higher the du-y, the iurger must be the advance, and
me smaller-the imports for re exportation.
“The import* befor#t!j payment of dudes, under

We have been surprisM that the - merchants of
Charleston, Savannah, Mobile, and Now Orleans,
have not btfor o this takcutiiy subject in h&nfl, and
mude such applications and statements to Congress
•e would secure beyond a doubt the success of the
the measure. To N. Crle-ns it is.abovo all other pla
ces important. This is the largest exporting city in
tho Union, ml yet its importsaru really insignificant-
Our |ieo|>le and oiir customers depend upon Boston,
Now York and Fli.ladelphia, for their supplies of
foreign goods; and they do so lor.the- simple rea
os inat cash duties and advanced payments rmder
it impossible for any person of small capital lo en

system were adopted, it would have the effect—
Firxt, To produce coin petition in Ihe foreign trade,
which la now eoufined almost entirely to a few large
trading houses, trading principally upon foreign cap
ital and for t lie b< nclit of foreigners.
Second, It would save for the South and West
the co.st oi'reshipinnnt, freight, insurance,aiul|interest
on duties, which tiiey now have tu pay on ail import
uni -leu, received from the North.
Third, It would give lo New Orleans aifd Mobits
nearly tho entire trade of tho West Indies and Mex
ico.
Fourth, It would enable all merchants to do a
safer and more profitable business; lor knowing at all
times the stock on hand, they could calculate with
precision the relations between the supply and de
mand. hud make their arrangements accordingly.
