I love tfic memory of iliat hour
When first iu youth ! found thee ;
Tor infant beauty gently threw
A morning freshness round thee ;
A single star was rising there,
With rnild and lovely motion;
And scarce the Zephyr’s gentle breath,
Went o’er the sleeping ocean.
I love the memor- of triat hour—*
If wakes a pensive feeling ;
As when within the winding shell,
The plavful winds are stealing.
It tells inv heart of those bright years,
Ere hope went down in sorrow,
When all the jovs of yesterday
Where painted on fenuorrow.
Where ait thou now? thv once lov’d flowers
Their yellow leaves are twining;
And lnight and beautiful again
That single staj is shining.
But where art thou ? the bended glass
A dewy stone discloses;
And love’s light footsteps print the ground,
Where all mv peace reposes.
Farewell 1 mv fears were not for thee,
’Twere weakness to deplore thee ;
Or vainly mourn thine absence here,
While angels half adore thee.
Thy days were few, and quickly told ,
Thy short and mournful story
TJath ended like the morning star,
That melts in deeper glory.

STEAM CARRIAGE.
An extraordinary sensation was cre
ated on Thursday evening in the neigh
borhood of the Regent Park, by the sud
den appearance of Gurney’s newly inven
ted steam carriage,or self-moving machine
which coursed rouud part of the new road,
up the ascent of the Albany road, at the i
rate of ten miles an hour, carrying sever- j
al persons inside and behind. It seemed |
to mote with the most perfect case, and, j
without any appearance of smoke what- i
ever. The conductuer evidently held the
carriage under complete command ; and
whenever the crowd which gathered about
it became troublesome,shooting away from
them with speed equal to that of a mail
coach.—London Observer.
Twilight.—‘The Sun had already sunk
behind the mountains, whose undulating
forms were thrown into dark shadow a-
gairist ihe crimson sky. The thin cres
cent of the new moon floated over the
eastern hills, whose deep woods glowed
with the rosy glories of twilight. Over
the peak of a purple mountain, glittered
Me solitary star of evening. As the sun
drooped, universal silence seemed to per
vade the wli de face of Nature. Tiie
voice of the birds was still; the breeze
which had refreshed them during the day
died away, as if its office were now com
pleted: and none of the dark sounds and
sights of night yet dared to triumph over | jecls of his Majesty,
the death of day. Unseen were the cir
cling wings of the fell bat; unbeared tho
screech of the waking owl; silent the
drowsv hum of the shade-born beetle !
VVliaf heart has not acknowledged the in
fluence of this hour—the sweet and
soothing hour of twilight!—the hour of
love, the hour of adoration, the hour of
rest!—when we think of those we love,
only to regret that we have not loved
more dearly: when we remember our en
emies only to forgive them !”

Novel Emigration.—The unprecedent
ed increase of Red Squirrels on the bor
ders of the river in this vicinity, and their
unseemly location in almost every wood

have excited no little curiosity. The mys

From the Philadelphia Palladium
Yesterday, about five minutes before 3
o’clock, P. M. there was a great sensation
created in Chesmit st. by the appearance
on that fashionable promenade, of a
charming little girl, with a most graceful
form, but wearing a hat which beggers
description. It was not the color of the
silk, nor the gaiety or quantity of the rib
bons which decked it, nor the beauty of
the face it shaded, which attracted the at
lention and fixed the wondering eyes of
the crowd, but the size and sweep of the
hat, which were beyond any .thing we ev
er saw, or ever read of in those fruitful
sources of the romantic, ihe eastern (not
yankee) tales. It could not have been less
than six feet around ihe “rim.” Every
body stopped to look at it, some put on
spectacles, others drew out their glasses,
and not a few ejaculated “prodigious!”
others appeared to be infected with the
same eager wish to “ touch k,” which seiz
ed die inhabitants ofStrasburg, when the
“stranger with the nose” made his ap
pearance in 1 iieir city. Altogether it was
an extraordinary sight, and will be record
ed in our mem rv as the “Hat Scene.”
[From the Wilmington, N. C. Recorder]
A letter from Madrid,dated January 1st.
1S27, and placed in our hands bv ihe per
son to whom it is addressed, gives the fol
lowing agreeable intelligence of this gen
tleman :
“ Our distinguished countryman Wash-
i.vgton Irving, is at present in this place.
He came here for the purpose of trans
lating some documents relating to Colum
bus, but finding them not likely to pay the
trouble, he has given up the intention, and
commenced an original work, now nearly
finished ; and which will be read with deep

T HIS Medicine lias acquired a very extend
ed and established celebrity both in Hos
pital and Private practice, which its efficacy alone
lias supported for these seven years past.
As a spring or fall purifier it has given new
constitutions to thousands, it is by its operation
on the Blood that such surprising cures have been
performed in numerous diseases.
The effect of this medicine is such as not to in
terrupt either business or pleasure, and requires
only the common restraint of moderation in diet.
It is conveyed by the circulating fluids, and cor
rects their tendencies to all those diseases which
originate in vitiated blood, diseased liver, or de
praved appetite, it is a safe medicine, and re
moves those evils which an unsuccessful use
of mercury so often occasions. No one, how
ever is advised to take it without first fully con
vincing himself of the truth of what is here stated
and the r-ctitude of the Proprietor’s intentions.

fails to show evident tokens of anger and

quite enraged ; pecking the offenders leg

nothing less doubtful than the sincerity of

They weave the goods in houses belong

and at Leghorn and Florence, to which
places they are sent, and from whence
they find their way over the greater part

the hope of any one day resting from thd

quil interval reflection, of when with feelf

sions not exhausted but mellowed, we raaj
look Vainly on the past without regret, am
on the future without apprehension. Bu
in the tumult of the world, this vision fo
ever recedes as we approach it; the pas
sions which have agitated our life disturb
our latest hour; and we go down to the
tomb, like'the sun into the ocean, with no
gentle and gradual withdrawing of the
light of life back to the source which gave
it, but, sullen in its beamless descent, with
all its fiery glow, long after it has lost its

“ Felons on the finger may be effectu
ally cured, it'is said, in three hours, with
a poultice, of the size of a small bean,
made of quick lime, slacked with soap,
bound on the spot, and renewed even-
half hour.”
We can add our own experience in con
firmation of the statement of the curative
properties of this prescription. We once
had occasion to test its efficacy. The
writer mentions that it is necessary to re
tain the poultice on the affected part for
the term of three hours. This is not the
fact; an application of three quarters of
an hour, will effectually break up the
most inveterare felon, besides human for
titude could not endure the pain occasion
ed by its application for a longer time.

This MHicine has the singular fortune, a just

fers an argument so plain and conclusive, that it

From Dr. Wm. Price, formerly Surgeon of the
Pennsylvania Hospital, k.c.
Liverpool, (eng.) Sept. 1823.
The Vegetable Syrup, called Swairu’s Pana
cea, prepared by Mr Svvaim, of Philadelphia,
has recently been introduced here by Dr. Price,
from the United States of America, where it is
now extensively used in the treatment of a varie
ty of Chronic Diseases.
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
patticularly 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 effects 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 lias, likewise, very re
cently been administered with decided advant
age by Olio of th" Sorccmrs til
London, in a case which had entirely destroyed
the right eye of the patient, and a great portion
of the side of the face. WA1. PRICE, M. D
