The officers of 'he U. S. frigate Con
stellation save a splendid ball on ihe eve
ning of the 24th ulr. to the Ladies and
Gentlemen of Pensacola, on board that
frigate. A Florida Poet thus describes
the scene.
CONSTELLATION’S BALL,
Beauty and gaiety were there
And mirth and music loud resounded,
And every breast seemed free from care,
And every heart with pleasure bounded.
The myrtle takes the laurel’s place—
The stern command now yields to pleading.
The glittering- arms their racks now grace-?-
And love’s the only foe they’re heeding.
Oh ! how unlike *the scenes i* is deck
Has witnessed, when the tempest lowered.
Or when the Insurgent lay a wreck,
Beneath the broadsides which she showered.
Emblem of our own fickle state—
Now bending ’neath the gale’s rude roarings;
?et may we lie, no distant date,
Ip pleasure’s harbor', at safe moorings. TV.

HYMEN’s BALL.
Hymen afforded a ball
On the outside of his castle >
Some count it Happiness Hall,
Others account it a bastde.
Be that as it may, in a trice
Dancing we had and hilarity;
Hearts that were bound up in ice
Melted to amorous charity—
Beauty looked smiling on Faith,
Coyness grew into festivity,
Pairs as they whirled out of breath,
VT altzed themselves into captivity,
-Crowds to the castle v iio more
Single to pine am. to pout again)
Flocked—and behn.t, them the door
Was shut that lets nobody out again.
Stunned as it slammed ou then’, some
Looked ra.her sheepish,Tm vexed to say,
Bur for one face that's glum,
Twenty brighteu’d with extacy.
Chorus.
Wedlock’s a glorious thing,
blessings be on the beginning o’t ;
Should your, neck Dreak with the string,
Sweet is at least the springing o’t.

j Description of a Cow.—At lire sale of
ja farming stockin Glocestershire, in Eng

! extempore description of a cow :
I Long in her sides, bright in her eyes,
Short in her legs, thin in her thighs,
! Big in her ribs, wide in her pins,
Full in her bosom, small in her shins,
Long in her face, fine in her tail,
Aud never deficient in filling her pail.
A short Story told by Mr. Matthews.
“ My friend and myself, when in Devonshire,
were visiting an acquaintance who had a daughter
not remarkable either for her wit, beauty or ac
complishments. She had passed the grand cli
macteric, and was certainly on the wane : but
her heart had lost none of the susceptibility to la
grand ■passion. She had for ten years been con
spicuous for her dress,airs and “beau-catchers,”
but alas ! she had '“toiled all night” at balls, routs
and levees, but had caught no beau. Being as
vain as she was simple, we thought her fair game
for a quiz. Miss Lucretia Elvira, said 1, have
you heard of the late act of parliament, by which
all ladies with small mouths shall be allowed to
marry two husbands ? No sir. said she, (screwing
■up her mouth into a pucker) what a curious law !
You are wrong, Edward, said my friend to me,
those ladies with large mouths, are to be allowed
two husbands “Laiome'. exclaimed she, (open
ing her .mouth as bigas a bucket.) “What a curious
law.'

It is conveyed by the circulating fluids, and cor-

Always Happy.—An Indian Bishop
strmrgled through great difficulties without
repining, and met much opposition in the
discharge ofhis episcopal functions, with
out betraying the least impatience. One
ofhis intimate friends, who highly admired
those virtues which ho :bought impossible
to imitate, one day asked the prelate it he
could communicate the secret of being
always easv ?—“ Yes,” replied the old
man, “ I can teach you niv secret, and
with great facility. - It consists in nothing
more than making right use of my eyes.”
His friend begged him to explain himself.
‘Most willingly,’ returned the bishop:
‘In whatever, state I am, I first of all,
look up to Heaven, and remember that
my principal business here is to get there;
I then look down upon earth, and call to
mind how small a place I shall occupy in

A man who was accustomed to deal in
the marvellous, told a country cousin of
his, that he liad three great curiosities in
his house ; an ox that could go 300 miles
a day,a cock that told the hour ofthe night,
and a dog that could read in a supetior
manner. Says the cousin “these are ex
traordinary things indeed ! I must call up
on you, and beg a sight of them.” The
liar returns home and tells his wife what
had happened, saying he had got into a
scrape, and did not know how to extricate
himself. “Oh, never mind.” says she, “I
can manage it.” The next day the coun
tryman called and inquiring after his cou
sin ; is told that he was that morning gone
ofi'to Pekin. “ And what time is he ex
pected back?” “In seven or eight days.”

“The remedy consists ofhydroclort (liquid oxy

externally. The wounds caused by the bite of
mad animals are to be washed with it. This sub

when used several days after the fatal bite. Nu

Of the efficacy of this preparation Dr- Price
has had abundant and most satisfactory evidence,
during a course of experiments made under his
direction, whilst Surgeon of the Pennsylvania
Hospital; and since his arrival in England, he
has had the good fortune of witnessing many ad
ditional instances Of its successful administration.
The diseases in which this Medicine has been
paiticularly useful, are those arising from con
stitutional causes—as in the various forms of
Scrofula, whether affecting the bones, joints, or
soft parts ; and in cases, where a disposition to
this disease is manifested by debility only, it
operates as a preventive to the local disease by
its beneficial gflects on the constitution. It is
equally efficacious in mercurial, disease, and in
the secondary forms of Sypilis, and has lately
been gi*'en with marked success in chronic dis
eases of the Liver, which had resisted the careful
exhibition of mercury It has, likewise, very re
cently been administered with decided advant
age by one of the most distinguished Surgeons in
London, in a case which had entirely destroved
the right eye ofthe patient, and a great portion
of the side of the face. WM. PRICE, M. D.
