IF YOU will and must wear SPECTACLES, get them exactly suited to the eye, or they will do more ruin* than good. TflE OPTOMETER is an instrument invented by Prof. Stampfer, of the Polytechnieal School of Vienn •, for the purpose of measuring with scientific exactness the degree of convexity the eye had lost by age, and it applies < accurate Dumbers of glasses to counteract the de fect. None. then, need hereafter complain that their spectacles pain their eyes, who call on us to , :be fitted with Spectacles. Come and see for your selves.

Messrs. Pike. I can now read common print with ease with the lowest magnifying glasses. I have i used thorn agreeably to your directions about four | weeks. I see not why I may not expect, in a short ! time, to havo my sight quite restored by continu : ing the use of the cups I cannot but regard this , ; discovery as of great value. Yours, truly, (Signed) C. G. Finnet. P. S. lamin my sixtieth year, and have worn i glasses about ten years. Feb.lv. 7, 1853.—Prof. Finney writes—l have, , i ibr the last six or eight months, used them (tbo I Cups) but seldom.

IIV offering tho services of the steamer FASHION, (the first boat of this line) to the merchants of Georgia and Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee, we would ask for her that patronage which her construction and light draught of water merits. The Fashion is a home enterprise and owned ex clusively by Capt. T. N. Philpot (her commander) and myself, whose entiro attention will be given to the interest of her patrons. This boat was built in this city, and great care has boon taken in her construction to make her w r orthy of the trade for which she is intonded. Her capacity is about 2000 bales Cotton, her draught of water only 13 inches, which will enable bor at all seasons of the year, to deliver herfreight promptly. Her entire cargo will be taken between decks, which will not only prevent damago to goods in case of snagging, but will add much to tho condi tion of packages discharged from hor. Mr. M. A. Cohen is the agent of this line in Savannah, where suitable wharves and warehouse have been provi ded in a central situation for tho reception of Cot ton, Merchandize, Ac.

We met—’twas when her silver chain ] The midnight moen was weaving l 1 Across a darkly rolling plain ; Os waters wildly heaving— } Our hearts were not mora still and calm Than Tas that roaring river, ■ For we had sung life’s morning psalm, And met—to part forever. There waved a beauteous forest sea Beneath that moon’s illuming, But sorrow, in our sandal tree, Her axe had been perfuming ; And sadly gazed we on the grove Which girt that foaming river, And mourned to think, with all our love, We met to part forever. The nightengale flung on the breeze Her ricbest vocal treasure, But grief, on life's low minor keys, Had struck a mournful measure ; And coldly fell the night bird’s song. Wo could but weep and shiver To think our broken hearts were strong, To meet and part forever. The dew fell on the blooming vines Our sylvan bower that shaded. But in our spirit’s shattered shrines The rose of love was faded. Youth’s golden dew, which bathed it erst, Again would bath it never, And only blinding tear drops burst To meet and part forever. The Archer stars sat on the sky, Their silver arrows glancing Against each wave that shouted by, To ooean's waste advancing ; But we had felt the poisoned darts From griefs exhaustless quiver, They rankled in the writhing hearts That met to part forever. ’Tis many a year since then wo met, And sorrows have I numbered, But bitterer brine hath never yet My faded cheek encumbered, And memory, like a guilty spirite, Still haunts that lonely river, Where, in the moon’s unclouded light, Wo met to part forever. “ Out of Ch.aos Cometh Immortality.” Such is the language of an eastern poet. The sentiment is a noble oue—so encounging and true. It teaches us when the storms of destiny break wildly upon us, and when distress and confusion seem to ride rampant over broken fortunes, that then is the hour to put forth our whole strength—and that if with undaunted heart we still strive onward, we may yet attain the consummation of our proudest wishes— “ The race must como before the prize, The cross before tho crown.” A few years since a wealthy Boston mer chant was leaving a store in New York where he had occasion to transact some business ; his eye was arrested by the appearance of a man who was removing some boxes from the store. In him he thought he recognized one whom he had seen before in a far different station. “Is net your name G said he,“ and were you not a since, at the head of a large and flourishing establishment in V’ “ Yes sir,” was the reply ; “ but I failed in business a few months since and alter losing every dollar of my property was obliged to be gin the world anew. Rather than call upon my friends tor assistance, I accepted this situation as porter. I wished oniv to get a foothold. Call twelve months hence and inquire for me.” Twelve months after that conversation the por ter’s name was inscribed as a member of the firm, and honor, respectability and wealth were soon associated with his name. Too many there are who become discouraged by a single failure—a single obstacle in the journey of life. Cases are constantly occurring where men of known busines-ability, who have by some unfortunate stroke of the wayward goddess lost their alt, have resigned themselves positively to their fate, and with crushed ener gies blighted hopes, floated, poor and dependent, down the current ot declining life. with hardly a feeble effort to recover the position they have lost. Is this right ?—is this manly ? A man should rather start anew, at the very bottom of the ladder, and with redoubled energies strive to achieve a worthy rank among his fellow men. Fortune is coy and will not come at its bidding. He must achieve her by the sweat of his brow. He may not succeed in six mouths or a year but let him try. Let him turn to the ladder with a Arm step and a fearless heart, and endea vor to gain a foothold. It he labors earnestly he »iuj/ rise. Try! for “out of chaos cometh immortality.”— Boston Daily Journal. Remarkable Cask of Supposed Petrifac tion.—There arrived, within a few days, at the Depot ol the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, in this city, an oblong box represented to contain a corpse, and it struck us as somewhat singular, it weighed live hundred and fifty pounds, according to the freight charges upon it. Curious to know something more about this mysterious box than the external marks indicated, we instituted some inquiries, and derived the foliowin information, which as we got it from pretty good authority, we are inclined to consider correct until we shali receive a better explanation: The wife of a gentleman living in Nelson county, in this State, died some four years ago, and was interred in the usual manner. Being a native of Woodford county, Kentucky, she hatl requested, before her death, to be buried beside her kindred and in the home of her childhood.— From accident or delay, her request was not complied with until quite recently her relations caused her remains to be disinterred, when they were found to be of the extraordinary weight mentioned above— over five hundred pouuds / At the time of her death her weight w'as about 110 pounds. Only the foot of the coffin, which was still in a good state of preservation was broken open, when her feet were found to be in a perfect state of petrifaction, the stone partak ing of the character of the hardest limestone formations in the locality of the grave. The in ference is that the whole body is thus complete ly petrified.— Wheeling Intelligencer. A young lawyer riding on horseback through the streets ot St, Louis a lew weeks since, lost his pocket-wallett, containing S2OO in cash, and several notes left with him for collection. Ha advertised his loss, offering a reward through the papers to the finder. In a.day or two.after his advertisement had been published, he received the following through the Post Office : u Dear Sir :—l was fortunate enough to be the finder of your wallet, and assure you that the ‘needful’ it contained, was quite a Godsend to me, as an y pocket had caved in a short time since. Like my friend Micawber, I had long indulged in a hope that ‘something would turn up,’ and you can imagine my feelings, when, as mys'eye lit on your wallet, I cried ‘Eureka.’ You doubtless think I ought to disgorge; but l regard this as a true case |of fosom. jetsumand li gar,’ (as you lawyers call it) which being inter preted, means, l believe, that the finder ‘ex offi cio,’ (isn’t that the term ?) acquires a property therein. The papers not being conveitable into cash, in their present shape, I send them to you for the proper {endorsement, with the remark Jthat if you want them collected, all you have to do is to send them to me in the proper order. Yours, affectionally, Bumblebee. P. s.—ls I ever get a sufficiency ot the Toot of all evil’ on hand, I shall feel under obligation to liquidate.” Heavy Damages. —The Boston Mail is in formed that a gentleman whose daughter was killed at the collision on the Providence and Worcester railroad, at Valley Falls, last July, demands $50,000 damages. This is his ultima tum, and the company having refused it, are to I be allowed one year for reflection on the sub -1 ject.
