POETRY.
From the Salemßegistcr.
The following lines were written by a Stu
dent of the Theological Seminary in Ando
ver, on hearing that a young Lady and Gen
tleman, on passing the window of his lodg
ings, made some remarks on the shabb) ap
pearance of his window curtains :
My window-curtains are not made of silk,
Nor yet of gorgeous calico, bedight
With various uncouth figures—trees, and
nymphs,
And cottages, and dogs; and shepherd swains,
And fleecy flocks recumbent ; —no, they’re
made
Os paper-hangings, not those splendid ones
From France imported, and all pictured out
With Grecian ruins .and French gallantry ;
But genuine Yankee stuff—the ground pale
blue,
Deck’d with alternate stripes drawn parallel,
Alternate red and purple ; —add to this,
That they arc torn, and ragged as the bear
That sleeps in savage Greenland's icy cave.
Such arc my window-curtains —even such;
Y’et homely as they are, I love them well.
And is it strange tnat 1 should love my cur
tains 7
Who does not love the hoary, moss grown
oak,
Upon whose roots his infant fe. t have trod?
Tho’ now perhaps the winds and bolts of hea
ven
Have riv’n the branches and the wither’d
trunk
Stands leafless —shapeless —and who does not
love
The spot which or.ee he called his Happy home?
Though now perhaps the home of desolation.
It is with such affection, that I love
My poor old curtains. The; have shielded
me
From many a scorching summer’s sun, and
oft
By twilight, win n the ev’ning breeze arose,
I’ve watch’d them softly waving like the sea,
When kiss’d by gentlest zephyrs ; often too,
I’ve seen them proudly flapping in the g ale,
l.ike the dark eagle’s pinions wh. n on h'gh
1 le soars above the lightning and the storm ;
And sometimes have I seen them, wet with
rain,
And, even like a mermaid's dripping locks,
When rising from her bower in the deep,
She rears her sea-green head above the wave,
To chaunt her song, in luckless sailor’s ear—
Her song portending danger, shipwreck, death.
Such arc the ties—the dear remembrances
W hich made me love my curtains. What is
love ?
The l’oet and the Novelist can tell,
And I can tell.—’Tisnot a sudden feeling—
Not a romantic rapture—not a blaze
That flushes for a moment, and aspires.
It is that feeling—’tin that deep ash etion
"With which I look upon my poor old curtains.
Yes! this is love; and tho' sonic Theo
logue,
With lofty heels, and ivory-headed cane,
And head erect, and hat forever new,
That vies in blackness with the raven’s wing,
May laugh, and w ith a sneer pronounce them
vile;
And tho’ the passing fair may smile, and ask
ft hat youth so slovenly inhabits here ?
I love them still; —then let tlum hang,
And flap with every breeze, and drink the
beams
Os every morning sun.
But such is earth —
Such the frail tenure, of all earthly things,
Then when the ties which bind them to the
heart
Arc closest, strongest—then they flee away !
So must my curtains perish—for tlieir rents
E’en now are large and dreadful! —l have
watch’d
Each rent, and seen it widening still,
Till now they are so wide, my curtains fly,
Like the loose tresses of a mountain nymph,
Or like the streamers of a seventy-four.
0, mv poor curtains! for yc soon must
perish!—
O when I see your scattered fragments fly,
Borne on the pinions of some rushing blast
That sweeps across the mountains—then
farewell.
Optical Phenominor. —A cloud
■w as lately observed, near Dover in
England, which seemed to rest part
ly on the sea, and extended along
the horizon nearly as far as the eye
could reach, beginning at the Dover
Point. Every vessel was not only
reflected from it, but thore appeared
to be two distinct images of each
vessel—one immediately above (be
real object, and inverted; the other
in its proper position, on the cloud,
sailing in the air. The French cliffs
had a most curious appearance, re
sembling a white castle, or extended
fortification, suddenly raised upon
the sea, at a distance of less than a
mile, and covering a space of ten
miles. Between this and the spec
tator, clouds were so disposed as to
render the whole a magnificent ob
ject. The town of Sandwich also,
with the beach he. were seen in the
air in an inverted position. This
spectacle lasted an hour and a half,
and on the aproach of night gradual
ly faded away— U■ S. Lit. Gaz.
Singular Eastern Custom. —ln a pa
por on the natural history, itc of the
llimalayah Mountains, by Dr. Govan,
in Brewster’s "Journal of Science,”
he states that while at Nahan. which
is from 3,000 to 3,200 feet above
tie levelofthe sea, he first noticed
1 he custom which has been frequent
ly observed to prevail in those dis
tricts, of laying the children to sleep,
apparentlv'inuch to their satisfaction,
at the commencing heats, and until
the rainy season begins with their
heads under little rills of the coldest
w ater, directed upon them for some
hours, during the hottest part of the
day. Here it was practised in the
case of a life no less precious than
than that ofthe young Rajah of Si
moor, a boy about ten or twelve
years of age, a sufficient evidence of
the estimation in which the practice
is held. It is most commonly, how
ever, followed in the case of infants
at the breasts.
The temperature of the water, I
have observed to be from 4G to 56
and 65 deg. and have only to add,
that it seemed to me most common
in those districts which having a
good deal of cold weather, are nev
ertheless, subject to very considera
ble summer heats It was a great
preventative, the people aliirmed,
againsr billious fever and affections of
the; spleen, during the subsequent
rainy months.— lbid.
The following is from the Medical Rercorder,
a work conducted by Samuei. Colhous
M. D. cf Philadelphia, and replete with
important original papers and intelligence,
in Medicine and Surgery.
Prevention of Drunkcness. —Our
readers art; aware that the Volatile
Alkali, [Spirits of Hartshorn] has
been considered as a remedy for in
toxication. We said in a former
number, that should this be the case,
it is doubtful whether the antidote
would not encourage the vice rather
than tend to suppress it. In one of
the foreign Journals it is stated that
a German Physician (M. Brulh Cra
mer) has discovered that the exhi
bition of diluted sulphuric acid, with
occasional bitters, causes, at length,
such a disgust against brandy and
other spirituous potations, as to er
adicate the disposition to inebriety.
It'this should prove true, it would
he a far more valuable discovery
than that of a medicine which ren
dered a drunken man sober, and en
abled him to return to his favorite
potations with impunity.
Extinction of Fire. —The Parisian
Conucil of Health report, that pow
dered sulphur, thrown on the fire in
a grate, extinguishes very quickly,
a fire in the chimney above. A
pound of the substance sprinkled on
the fire, is said to be quite sufficient
for this purpose.— lbid.
Although the following relation
may he viewed by some as scarcely
deserving credit, it may be relied on
as authentic ; the circumstances re
corded in it took place in the county
of Flint, about 80 years back. A
woman having been convicted of a
capital crime, was ordered for exe
cution, and was actually hanged.—
Having remained suspended during
the usual time, she was removed
from the scaffold, and carried into
the church; it was soon discovered
that the vital spark was not totally
extinct, and moans were immediate
ly adopted by her friends for the pur
pose of fully restoring animation.—
The executioner having been in
formed of what was going on, and
apprehending that he should incur
censure for the incomplete perform
ance of his sanguinary duty, repair
ed to the church with an intention
to despatch the woman. The fe-
males, however, who were around
the body, became furious when ac
quainted with the hangman’s design,
and immediately attacking him with
the most violent rage, he was oblig
ed to fly for safety up the steps which
led to the belfry : thither his pursu
ers followed him, and seizing him
by the heels, they dragged him down
the stairs, and so much injured him
that his death was the consequence.
In the mean time, the body of the
woman was carried away, and the
measures for restoring life ultimate
ly proved successful. But perhaps
the most astonishing portion of this
narration yet remains to be told:
this woman, who might be said to
have experienced a resurrection from
the grave, not long afterwards ac
tually committed another crime of
which she was convicted at the next
assizes, and for which she suffered
death. The sheriff, in this instance,
determined that the intention of the
law should not again he frustrated,
caused a grave to be dug near the
gallows, in which the corpse was im
mediately buried after the execution
was carried into effect.

MATHEMATICAL DIARY;
CONTAINING new researches
and improvements in Mathema
tics : with collections of questions,
proposed and resolved by ingenious
Correspondents ; in quarterly num
bers : conducted by R. ADRIAN,
LL D. F. A. P. S F A. A. S. he.
and professor of Mathematics and
Natural Philosophy in Columbia Col
lege, New-York.
Published by James Ryan, at th-
Classical and Mathematical Book
store, 322 Broadway, New-York.
The principal object of this little
work is to excite the genius and in
dustry of those who have a taste tor
mathematical studies, by affording
ihcm an opportunity of laying their
speculations before the public, in an
advantageous manner ; and thus to
spread the knowledge of mathema
tics in a way that is both effectual
and agreeable. It is well known to
mathematicians, that nothing contri
butes more to the developemcnt ol
mathematical genius, than the efforts
made by the students, to discover
the solution of new and interesting
questions ; and accordingly we find
that many attempts have been made
to apply this fact in such a manner
as to render it most beneficial to so
ciety.
With this view, many periodical
works, embracing mathematical in
quiries, have been published in Great
Britain : as, The Ladies’ Diary, The
Gentlemen’s Diary, The Mathema
tical Companion, Dr. Hutton’s Mis
cellanea Curiosa, Leybourn’s Mathe
matical Repository, &c.
These publications have had great
influence on the state of mathemati
cal science in that country ; and, ac
cording to the opinions ol‘some per
sons well acquainted with tho sub
ject, have advanced the knowledge
of mathematics more rapidly and ex
tensively than many other works of
greater magnitude. Indeed, there is
scarcely any thing that can give a
better view of the very general dif
fusion of mathematical knowledge in
Great Britain, than an examination
of the works which wc have just
mentioned.
The English Ladies’ Diary, which
is published annually, was b£gun in
1704, and has continued till the pre
sent time. Among its successive
conductors, were the eminent mathe
maticians, Simpson and Dr. Hutton ;
and in the list of its contributors are
enrolled the names of many of the
best mathematicians that England
has ever produced ; it is sufficient to
mention Emerson, Simpson, Landen,
Lawson, Vince, Hutton, Dalby, Ma
jor Henry Watson, Wales, and
Mudge. It contains a great num
ber of useful and interesting prob
lems in all the branches of mathe
matics.
Leybourn’s Repository is a work
of great merit, Many of its prob
lems, solutions, and researches, are
learned and ingenious. It is sup
ported by the labours of the first
mathematicians in England, as Bar
low, Ivory, Professor Wallace of Ed
inburgh, and many others of distin
guished abilities.
Similar works have been long in
use among the mathematicians of
Ireland. The Ladies’ Diary and the
Belfast Almanac are publications of
considerable utility in extending the
knowledge of mathematical science
The latter is under the direction of
Professor Thompson, of the Belfast
Institution, a gentleman extremely
well qualified for the work by his
talents and impartiality.
In this country,also,several similar
works have appeared, and have been
productive of some advantages in
improving, as well as in disseminat
ing, the science of mathematics , but
their usefulness has been limited to
various causes, which, it is hoped,
will not operate on the present un
dertaking. These works, as they
successively appeared, were, The
Mathematical Correspondent, con
ducted by the late ingenious Mr.
George Baron ; The Analyst, by the
Editor of the present work ; The
Scientific Journal, by Mr. Marrat;
and the Philosophic Magazine, or
Gentleman’s Diary, by Mr, Nash.
Among the contributors to these
publications, were several ingenious
and learned mathematicians; as
Gummerc, the author of two good
elementary treatises, the one on sur
veying, the other on astronomy ; the
very ingenious and much lamented
professor Fisher ; and the profound
mathematician, Dr. Bowditch.
In the present work, which will be
published in quarterly numbers, con
tributors of new discoveries or im
provements in mathematics, or of
new problems and solutions, shall
have their communications publish
ed with accuracy, and ascribed to
their respective authors.
A prize question will be proposed
in each number of the work, and the
choice of the question will depend
on its elegance, curiosity, or utility,
in improving or extending science.
For the best solution, a prize will lie
given of ten copies of the number
containing the solution ; and that
number will be designated by the
name of the person w ho obtains the
prize.
N. B. Specimens of this work may
be seen at the Book Store of A. M.
Hobby, Millcdgevillc, where those
desirous to have the Work, can
have their Subscriptions.
