They have parted, met and spoken, They have sighed and trembled, yet Each too proud "for explanation, Suffers anguish and regret. She has taken from her finger . The remembrance of his vow, For the costly gems he gave her Are as nothing to her now! They have parted, and forever, Less in anger than in pain ; For the mvstic chain is broken— They may never meet again; She has drawn the cherished likeness From her bosom’s belted zone, And her farewell eyes are drinking All the glory of his own. They have parted, and now the vision Of their sunny dream is o’er; To the coming ot his footsteps She may never listen more. She has laid aside the token Of his love that was her pride, When he pressed her to his bosom As his own, his promised bride. They have parted. She has gathered All her cherish’d presents there— Jewels, rings and golden lockets, With the interwov’n hair; She’s returned them with his letters, Blotted over with tears, And the foolishness of moments Leaves a blight upon their years. lUSCELLANEO US. maiden’s Mistake; OR, A KISSING ADVENTURE. Say what you will about it, I am readv to swear that I never was kissed, as far as 1 remember, but once. But that. It must be noted however, that buttei thus cured requires to stand three weeks or a month before it is used. If lfc J s . so ° n er opened, the salts are not sufficiently blended with it, and sometimes the cool ness of the nitre .will be perceived, which totally disappears afterwards. The above is worthy the attention of every dairy wo- Once has not been forgotten, and if you will heave your main yard aback 111 tell you the story, though it won t do for me to catch you laughing at it. It lacked only a half an hour of midnight, I had been on visit to one of my neighbors, and found such agreeable company that the hours passed by unnoticed—by me, at least; bu finally got under way for my lodgings. 1 he night was cool and nearly starless,- and the wind blew fresh from the north; but it did’nt hurry me much, for I sauntered a- long whistling the familiar tune of Oh, no, I never mention it. . . Suddenly, while passing an aristocratic- looking mansion, I saw a front window m the second story softly raised, and a white hand seemed to beckon me to approach. Wondering who it could be, and what was wanted, I darted through the front gate and •was under the window. ‘‘Is that vou, Charley?” asked one of the sweetest voices you ever dreamed of hear ing- I was surprised—astonished as yo may readily believe, considering ng ly for me to ascend; but I fell back aghast. However, I was spared the agony of a refusal. I saw in an instant that the lady was about to descend to the ground; I saw her suspended between heaven and earth. Oh ! how I wished that the ropes might give way, so that I should have and opportunity of catching her in my arms. But they did not break, she fl reached terra firma in safety. And oh, joy! the instant she touched the ground she threw her arms around my neck and kissed me again and again. Wasn’t I happy ? Of course I pressed her to my bosom with a lover’s arder, and re turned her kisses with more than com pound interest. ‘Oh, I am so glad you have come,’ mur mured the fair creature, in tones that filled my heart with delight. ‘I have taken noth ing but my jeweis and ready money, for I have hopes that a reconciliation will be ef fected. If not we will love and be happy in a little world of our own. ‘Yes, we will,’ I replied in an emphatic , manner, for I felt that she was all that mor tal man could desire. I now really thought that I had secured a bride; and then “jew els,” “money” and “reconciliation,” rang in my ears like a dinner bell in a one-eyed tavern. ‘And let us hurry away before we are discovered,’ said the lady, taking my arm and leading the way. No doubt she thought me backward, but to tell the truth, I didn’t know where to direct my steps Following the‘bent of her inclination,’we passed rapidly up by the street. ‘Go ahead, my beauty, I’m yours till death,’thought I. But a sad change soon ‘came o’er the spirit of our dream. Oui rapid pace soon brought us to the gas-light on the corner, and then, for the first time, she caught a glimpse of my features. The effect of the look was electrical. She dis- engaged her arm from mine, recoiled a few paces and murmured wildly. ‘Merciful heavens! You are not my Charles!’ Her face was turned towards mine, and never had I seen woman more beautiful. Her eyes were as dark as the starless night that enshrouded us, and expressive of her gifted soul. While I was gazing upon her 1 heard some one in the direction of the house we had just left whistling the same tune I had been indulging in a few mo ments previous. As 1 was about to make some sage remark upon the singular coin cidence, my fair companion darted away in the direction of whistler No. 2. The whole adventure seemed a mystery to me, and there I stood’ wondering what would be the next move. The cup of my bliss had been overturned. Five minutes might have passed, and then the lady made her appearance, leaning upon the arm of a noble* looking man of a- bout mv own age. I w’as just about to ask myself who could furnish us with pistols for two and a coffin for one when the lady took my hand, and looking archly up into my face, she asked— “Will you accompany us to the Kev Mr. Smith’s residence; and see us married V The truth flashed upon my mind in an instant. The lady was the daughter wealthy parents, and they were opposed to her lover considering him too poor, as he was a young merchant who had just setup in business. He was forbidden the house and as a natural consequence, the lovers planned an elopement. She was to be ready on a certain night, and he was to give no tice of his whereabouts by whistling the tune of “Oh,” no, I never,” &c. Well, there was no law against my whis tlino-, and at the appointed hour I happen- to be near the ladv’s residence, and whis tled my favorite tune, which chanced to be the signal agreed upon by the lovers. It was thus that she mistook me for her lover whose name was Charles. To make a long story short, I accompa nied them to their place of destination, and saw the lovers united in the holy bonds ot matrimony. The rest of the night was pass ed in rejoicing, and the next morning called upon the lady’s parents—gradually imparted the news to them, received their forgiveness for the lovers—saw them conciled—and agreeable to the vequest of the newly married couple have made their house my home ever since—but never sha I forget the kisses I received by reason ot the ‘Maiden’s Mistake. Settlement of olina. The following description of the settle ment of South Carolina by the Huguenots, was given by Rev. Dr. Humphrey, of Louis ville,^before the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, (0. S.,) which assem bled in Charleston on the 20th May ulti mo; Nearly one hundred and sixty-seven years ago, the revocation of the edict of Nantz drove from the kingdom of France more than five hundred thousand Hugue nots. They fled to all the Protestant States of Europe, to England, to the Cape of Good Hope, and to the shores of the Western Continent. Invited by the genial climate of the South to the infant colony of Caroli na, large numbers of these exiled people of God found rest, some on the borders of the Santee, and others on the banks of the Cooper River. The latter company built their house of worship in a little village a few miles distant, called Charleston. Thither, on the Lord’s day, they were borne on the bosom of the river, by the gentle flow of its waters, or the motion of the oar, or the ebbing of the tide. In the.r forest homes, and in their humbler sanctuary, they wept for joy as the voice of their sup plications and the melody of their songs, rising upon the tranquil and fragrant air, stood contrasted with the carnage and ter ror from which they had fled. This is the ancient Carolina. This too is Charleston^ Near us is the site of their first house of prayer. Yonder is the Cooper Rivei. There are the fields in which they set up their dwellings and domestic altars. There the rich and odorous vegetation of the early summer repeats for us the life it lived for them. Around us lies their dust, awaiting the resurrection to meet their kindred dust, as that too shall rise from the graves of mur dered saints beyond the seas. Here, in this presence, are their children The blood which moistened the beautiful alleys of Lenguedoc and Tours, which stained the waters of every river, and the pavements of every city, from the English channel to the Mediterranean, now runs in the veins of those with whom we woiship God this morning. With what unanimity these adhere to that aincient faith, a stran ger may not presume to inquire. But they are our witnesses this day, that faith, order and worship, our church is identical with their own ancestral church in its pure and heroic day. Nor these alone; for here are they also, whose fathers brought hither, many generations ago, the living and fi uit- bearing stock of Presbyterianism. Let these, our own brethren, partakers with us of the root and fatness of the olive tree, and let believers of every name, and they who be lieve not, discover in our proceeding and in , no spirit of contention and uncharitable ness or evil speaking. May they see noth ing in this august council but a pious zeal for the theology, the spirituability and the extension of the church, and for the gloiy of its eternal King. Democratic No mi nees. A pamphlet of 96 pages, entitled “The Life of Gen. Franklin Pierce, the Granite Statesman; with a biographical sketch of Hon. Wm. Rufus King, has been issued in New-York bv Cornish, Lamport & Co. The work, says the Boston Transcript, has been rushed out to meet the popular inquiry, “Who is Franklin Pierce ?” We quote a couple of paragraphs as specimens of the style: . Frank Pierce lacks two inches of six feet. He has a robust and vigorous frame, inu red to fatigue, and capable of great endu rance. He lives (just*as a man ought to live, before ne is nominated for the Presi dency of a great Republic,) in a small white bouse, near Main street, in Concord. In front of it is a yard.of beautiful green trees and little flower-beds, purifying and re freshing the air, and loading it with fra grance. He is a man of moderate means, as that expression is understood by the American people. He has been so gener ous through life that he has never laid up much money. The Pierces generally, as a family characteristic, never have amassed or regarded money for their own purposes. They have always been politicians, but they have never used the public money except for public purposes. None of them have ever been rich; none of them have ever been poor. Frank Pierce will spend every dollar of his salary in keeping a hospitable house, when he goes to Washington. There will be no show, or parade or sham; but there will be hearty cheer and cordial greeting to all, as far as his time and means enable him to g°- . 1 Such is his personal character, and such are his personal habits. If these, with his eminent qualities as a public man, and a statesman, do not qualify him to adminis ter the government at Washington with a- bility and acceptance, we honestly confess that do not know of a man who could. In every State cf the Union, the Democrats, and the lovers of their country, will rally to his support. He will not only bring out the entire democratic strength of the nation History of A Steel Pen. The history of a steel pen is among the wonders of the present day; it is to us what pin-making was to our ancestors a thing to be wondered at. We have the ore smelted and converted into iron, and the same changed into steel; then it is rolled into ordinary sheets, in which state it is re ceived from Sheffield, when it is cut up into strips, pickled to remove the scale, and re duced also by rolls to the requisite thick ness. In this condition it is passed into the hands of a female, who is seated at a small press, worked by hand, and who cuts out with a single blow a thin flat piece of steel, which is the future pen ; side slitting and piercing then follows, which is also performed- by hand-press, fittedup with punched bolster; thereafter all the blands in this condition are annealed in considera ble quantities in a -mufle; stamping with the maker’s name then follows; pressing into the concave form is the next process, and the operation of forming the barrel (if a barrel pen) is now completed. Harden ing-, an operation which requires no little care and attention, is also performed by h ating in a mufle, and when at a proper heat they are immersed in oil; the oil is then cleansed off them by agitating in a cylinder, and scouring follows by the same method, with the exception that pounded crucibles and other cutting substances aie introduced along with them, which in the end produces on one and all a bright sur face. The grinding on the point, &c., is performed on andeinory wheel, and is ef fected with great rapidity. In this state the pens are passed to the “slitter, tv ho is pio- vided with a pair of cutting tools, which are fitted into a hand-press. Their accuracy in fitting is such that a careful examination is necessary to detect that they are not one. The pen is rested upon the portion attached to the bottom of the press, the handle turn ed and the slit is made. The blue and straw color with which the pens are orna mented, is also produced by heat; the pens are introduced in large quantities into a cylinder which is made to revolve on a charcoal stove, and the change of color is An Arkansas Story* About the year 1830, politics ran ter/ high in Arkansas. Col. A. H. Sevier was a candidate for the office of delegate to Con gress, and Ben Desha was his opponent. Judge Andrew Scott was a warm friend of Desha, and utterly hostile to Sevier. He had a neighbor living about fifteen miles from him, on the “far side of Gallery creek* named Logan, commonly called “Stutter ing Jim Logan,” who was exactly “wice wer- sy” in his politics; and so frequent had been their encounters, that the two neigh bors had come cordially to hate each oth er. and noble a man to the Chief Magistracy.

It is a delicate pleasure, which makes its way through coarse organs; it is a creature whose eves are opened: it is the sense of the beau tiful, a faculty of the soul which is awaken ed; colors, forms, odors, are perceived for the first time, and these charming objects have at last s ectators. Those who have travel led in the country can testify, that a rose- tree under the window, a honey-suckle a-1 round the door of a cottage, are always a crood omen to a weary traveller. The hand that cultivates flowers is not closed against the supplications of the poor, nor agams the wants of the stranger. Flowers may be called the alphabet of angels, wherewith they write on hills and plains mysterious truths. ^ [from THE NEW YONK TRIBUNE llTH INST.j New Telegraph. “Professor” Barnes, a “medium” of the “Spiritual” order, favors us with a “Super nal” despatch he has just received from the unseen country as follows: “Sir John Franklin is perfectly safe, and will in due time be delivered from his pres ent imprisonment in the Arctic Ocean. He will then prove to the world the fact ot the existence of a North-West passage, as he will come out through Behring’s Straits. Benj. Franklin.

At Guillott’s manufactory up wards of 500 hands are daily engaged in the production of pens, and order and clean liness, whether in the personal attire of the work people or in their workshops, is the distinguishing characteristic; of the num ber engaged, 400 are females, employed in the acted production of the pens ; the re mainder are workmen, who are engaged in the more skilful or laborious departments, where female strength is not available. Some idea of the extent to which this man ufacture is now carried may be gathered from the fact there are annually upwards of 180 millions of pens produced here. Slaves and Coolies in Californio. The Legislature of California adjourned sine die on the 4th ult., apparently to the great rejoicing of all parties. The bill for submitting the question of a Convention for amending the Constitution of California to the people, was rejected m the Senate by a vote of 11 to 9. Thus it will be seen, the party in favor of the intro duction of slavery in California, or the di vision of the State, have been defeated by a close vote. . Before the adjournment, Governor Bigler sent a special message to the Legislature, in favor of a bill restricting the Chinese immi gration, as a measure necessary to enhance the prosperity and preserve the. tranqi^hty of the State. The Governor objects especi ally to the “Coolies,” who visit California under contracts for a term of years, at the expiration of which they return to their na tive country, having never assumed the du ties of citizenship, and exporting the huffs of their labors. He argues that they do not assume the habits of our people; that, in a spirit of cupidity, they visit California for .. r - e—m that thev do the acquisition of gold alone; A Rattlesnake. The New York Commercial Advertiser of the 12th instant, tells the following thril ling tale : . . . . Last fall a woman residing in the vicini ty of Worchester was picking blackberries in a filed near her house, haviag with her her only child, a bright-eyed little fellow of less than a year old. The babe sat upon One pleasant morning in the spring, when • the sun shone out warmly, and all nature was green and fresh after a heavy rain of two or three days duration, Logan was down from his house, through the little strip of creek bottom, to the bank of the creek, and sat himself down on a “lick log,” musing, perhaps, as Colonel Jack McCar thy once said—“on the evanethenthe of all thublunary thingtb.” The creek was about twenty yards wide, and the rain had raised it, so that it was swimming, covered with foam and running like a mill race with a full head of water. Where the road crossed, on the edge of which Logan, was sitting, was the only ope ning in the woods, which fringed the stream on each side. Above and below the trees leaned over, and their branches hung grace fully in the water, and swung to and fro in the swift current. After Logan had sat tLere a little while, Judge Scott came riding down the road on the other side, halted when he reached the water’s edge, and looked across without saying anything, but looked as if he thought, “Hang you, if it’s swimming, why don’t you say?' 5 Logan took out his jack-knife, split a piece off from the iickfog and commenced whittling it, looking steadily across towards Scott all the while. Logan was a large, stout, heavy looking; Scott small, wiry passionate, petulant, and as brave as a bull dog. After waiting a moment—for each bated the other too much to speak—Scott tight ened the reins and rode into the water. His horse had not taken more than six steps, before kerchug! he plunged in over head and ears. In a moment more Scott was washed from his back; the rider went one way, the horse the other, and the saddle bags a third. The horse- turned towards the side, which he went in and got ashore some little way below; the saddlebags float ed down the stream, and Scott, managed to reach Logan’s side of the creek, and caught hold of the swinging limb of a sycamore which dipped in the water. “Help, Logan, help!” cried Scott. I shall be drowned! Help!” “S-s-9-say you’ll v-v-vote for Sevier. bawled Logan.
