The Shadows of tbe Talley,
There’s a mossy shady valley,
And the waters wind and flow,
And the daisies sleep in winter,
’Neath a coverlid of snow;
And vioiets, bine-eyed violets,
Bloom in beauty in the spring,
And the sunbeams kiss the wavelets,
Until they seem to laugh aud sing.
But in autumn, when the sunlight.
Crowns the cedar-covered hill.
Shadows darken in the valley—
Shadows ominous and still;
And the yellow leaves, like banners.
Of an Elfin’s host that’s fled.
Ting’d with gold and royal purple,
Flutter sadly over head.
And those shadows, gloomy shadows,
Like dim phantoms on the ground,
Streched tln-ir dreamy length forever,
On a daisy-covered mound.
And I loved her, yes I loved her.
But the angels love her too,
So, she’s sleeping in the valley,
’Neath the sky so bright and bine.
And no slab of pallid marble,
Rears its white and ghastly head,
Telling wanderers in the valley,
Of the virtues of the dead.
But a lily is her tombstone,
And a dew-drop pure and bright,
Is the epitaph an angel wrote,
In the stillness of the night.
And I’m mournful, very mournful,
For my soul doth ever crave.
For the falling of the shadows,
From that little woodland grave.
For the memory of the loved one
From my soul will never part;
And those shadows in the valley.
Dim the sunshine of mv heart.
Hlisttlhnfous.

Eilraur Jlnary Sjdri ual Ranifeslatiens in
Southern Illinois.
A correspondent of the Du Quoin Min
ing Journal, vouched for by the editor
as “a man of truth under ordinary occur
rences,” gives the following account of
some very singular manifestations near
that -place, of which he says he was an eye
witness:
About the middle of the month of March
last, after I had retired to bed for the night
and was thinking of my plans for the next
day, I heard a loud knocking upon the
door, and opening it found my nearest
neighbor, Mr. L., awaiting me. He was
trembling from head to foot, at which 1
was greatly surprised, as the night was
quite warm considering the time of year.
“ForGod’s sake,come tomy house imme
diately. Satan or some of his crew have
taken possession of the premises and are
playing the the d—1 generally!”
He would give me no time to ask ques
tions but was exceedingly anxious I should
accompany him. I had scarcely got my
clothes on until lie took me by the arm and
hurried me along towards his residence.—
He entered the main room of the building,
closely followed by myself. There the
most wonderful sights I ever beheld pre-en-
ted themselves to my view. Mr. L’s wife
and two eldest daughters were huddled up
in one corner of the room, and each was
the personification of terror. They were
clinging to each other and sobbing violently
Near the fire place was the youngest
daughter, a very prette v girl, moving round
in a kind of waltz like dance with arms in
a horizontal position, seeming paralyzed
and humming a singular air. Stranger
than all, every piece of furniture in the
house was keeping perfect time with the
movements of the girl, and a clock on the
mantlepiece bad ceased running, but a
continuous stream of sound rung from its
bell, and added gieatly to the confusion
then prevalent. A Square table cut the
queerest antics of anything in the room.—
First it would tip forward on the two front
legs, then on the two hinder ones, and
lastly spin around on one leg like a top,
and agai.i tip backward and forwards. A
tire-shovel was dancing a jig on the hearth
the wood was rolling about, and pots and
skiilets made an outlandish racket.
Suddenly the young girl ceased her
waltzing—-stood like a statue—and instan
taneously every article of furniture settled
in their accustomed places. The lighted
candle, which was standing on the man
tlepiece, was suddenly extinguished, as if
by an invisible person. The fire upon the
hearth was quite low, and gave a very faint
light. Immediately after the extinguish
ment of the candle, a green light, inter
spersed with orange colored rays, seemed
to itivelop the upper portion of the girl’s
body, giving her a supernatural appear
ance and most melodious sounds followed,
resembling the music of the -dEolian harps,
appearing to be around, below, and above
the occupants of the room. This lasted
about five minutes, when the music ceased
and the green light disappeared; hut, as if
by magic, the candle oy the mantlepiece
was again ignited and the girl fell insensi
ble to the Hoor. Some two hours elapsed
before she was fully restored from her
trance-like sleep; but every vestige of the
singular performance in which she had par
ticipated had escaped her memory. Al
most nightly since, spiritual demonstra
tions have occuredat my neighbor’s house,
yet differing in many respects from those
witnessed by me.
Pearl Fishery in Tew Jersey.
In February last Mr. David Hower, a
carpenter, residing in the suburbs of Pater
son. (N. J.) discovered a large pearl in a
muscle which he had fished out of the
great Notch brook, three miles south of
Paterson. This pearl was unfortunately
not discovered until it was discolored and
nearly ruined by being boiled with the
muscle. It is said thaQ had it been ex
tracted in perfect order it would have
been worth $25,000! Since Mr.Hower’s
discovery others have discovered pearls
in muscles taken from various brooks near
Paterson, and the search for them has be
come general. A writer who went to see
some of the specimens of the treasure
describes the following pearls as being
in the hands of Mr. Jacob Quackenbush,
his three brothers, and Mr. Templeton,
partners:
One genuine, very beautiful, perfectly
round, pink colored pearl, three-eighths of
an inch in diameter.
One pearl as large as a pistol ball,
perfectly round, light rose color, (the
largest vet. found that is undisposed of.)
Two perfectly round white pearls, about
the size of a ri He ball.
Three pearls, rose and pink-colored, and
the size of peas.
Fourteen pearls, about the size of buck
shot, of various colors and forms, some of
them being imperfect.
Six of the same size, but of good color
and perfectly round; besides a large num
ber of very small pearls, and others of va-
ri‘»us sizes with but peculiar or imperfect
colors. This entire lot is estimated by
the possessors as worth $3,000
were all obtained on Monday and Tues
day of last week by the four parties who
ownthem.
Another lot in the hands of Jacob Quack
enbush, consists as follows:
Two beautiful and pefectly-rounA
pearls, pink color, and the size of a large
pea.
Two of the same description as large as
a common pea.
Two of the same description the size of
a small pea.
Ten of the same description of the size
of No- 3. shot.
I ourteen of irregular form, different col
ors, and the size of peas.
One large as a pistol ball, of oblong
form, and pink color.
1 his lot is estimated as being worth
$250.
David an Ordin has fourteen pearls
the size of pistol balls, all perfectly round
and of good colors. He has several
smaller ones, worth one one or two shil
lings each. His lot is estimated at
$5oO.
Henry Conklin has a large one, the size
of a small marble, perfectly round, pink
color, and valued by him at $400. Be
sides these a great many have been sold
lately. One of the Messrs. Quackenbush
has sold a pearl to Tiffany & Co. for $900,
which is valued by the present holder at
$1,500, and may yet be be disposed of for
a much larger sum.
That pearls have existed in this region
of New Jersey, and been found occasionally
for many years past, will appear to many
surprising; hut such, nevertheless, has
been the fact. Mr. David Quackenbush,
the father of Messrs. Jacob and John
Quackenbush, and several other old in
habitants ot Paterson and vicinity, state
that about torty years ago there was a
similar discovery, which created a good
deal of talk. The true locality of the
treasures was at that time-- kept carefully
from the public, and a few knowing specula
tors bought the “pretty stones” of the boys
for $1.50 or $2 each. Why the business
was discontinued, whether the fishery was
exhausted or whether the fishers could
not find a market, does not appear.
Hotc to Select Flour.—1. Look at its
color, if it is white, with a slightly yellow
ish or straw-colored tint, buy it. If it is
very white, with a bluish cast or with
black specks in it, refuse it. 1. Examine
its adhesiveness; wet and knead a little of
it between your fingers; if it works soft
and sticky, it is poor. Flour made from
spring wheat is likely to be sticky:—
2. Throw a little lump of dry flour against
a dry, smooth, perpendicular surface, if it
adheres in a dry lump, the flour has life in
it; if it falls like powder, it is bad. 4.
Squeeze some of the flour in your hand; if
it retains the shape give it by the pressure
that, too, is a good sign. Flour that will
stand all these tests it is safe to buy.—
These modes are given by old flour dealers
and w e make no apology for printing them
as they pertain to a matter that concerns
everybody, namely, the quality of the
“staff of life.”
The editor of the Charlottesville Jef
fersonian visited the Blue Ridge tunnel
last week, and, with the exception of one
hundred feet in the Central road, passed
through it on hand cars. There is a large
force at work night and day drilling; about
five hundred feet of the western side of
the tunnel is to be arched with brick, for
which preparations are now making. The
entire track will be laid by the 15th of
June, thus accomodating a large of part of
the travel to the springs this summer.
One of the most remarkable facts in the
life of a sailor has occurred in the life of
Jethro Collin, now a resident ofNantucket.
During seventeen voyages in the whale
fishery, occupying thirty-nine years, Cap
tain Coffin never witnessed a burial at sea,
nodeath ever taking place onboard ofany
ship to which he belonged.
A Valuable Roai*.—The Memphis Bulletin
publishes a statement shewing the net profits of
the Memphis and Charleston Railroad, tor the
month ot its operation, to be §36,966, a sum more
than double its expenses, and this at a time, too,
when the products of the country along the line of
the road were quite all in, and the merchants, both
in town and country, had mostly received there
stocks of spring goods. Another fact worth of
mention is, that during that month the plauting
community were engagtd at home, which lessened
the travel over the road to a certain extent. Ta
king the former receipts and earninings of this
end of the road as a criterion, the mouth of April
is not a fair average for the whole year; in fact
there are but three months of the year which show
a less amount of business then April; still, if we
take the above as ati average, it will show the net
earnigs for the year to be about four hundred aud
forty-four thousand dollars During the business
season some months will, no doubt, show the
net earnings to be nearly double that of tbe above.
A Score of Printers.
In this office are twenty printers engaged. On
ly look at them! Iu ages, ranging from twenty
to forty; in size and complexion, from the ordinary
stout (wenever knew a fat printer) to some that
might crawl thro’ a greased flute, as white as
Circassians and others brown or rosy—as your
“Georgia cracker,” or Pennsylvania publican.
Some bearded like the Pard, others smooth faced
as the Greek Slave. One has travelled all over
the North American coutineut, hunted bears in
Arkansas, and the wild horse in the Pampas of
South America; another has been out on the broad
ocean, and has seen life before the mast; another
graduated at West Point, served in the army, and
accompanied Col. Doniphan in his Xenephonic
grand campaign all over New Mexico.—What a
book he can write. Another has kept tavern,
sold goods at auction, travelled over the Uni ed
States several times, been well off and broken—
often. Two have been “on the stage,” a profes
sion printers are much addicted to, for about half
the actors on the American board are printers.
One we believe h.as preached sermons, another has
lectured to crowded houses. Another has served
in Mexico, with General Scott. A sixth has been
a stump orator, member of the Legislature “out
West," and fought a duel, we believe. Tlnee have
practiced medicine, kept sloreaml dealt in horses,
cotton, aud negroes. Two have held municipal
offices. Four or five have been officers or privates
iu various military companies. One served with
Gen. Houston in tlie Texan revolution and one in
the Candian rebellion. Six or eight have edited
and published newspapers in various parts of the
United States. Oue has been officer of a packet on
the “raging canawl.’’—One was wounded—leg
off—at the storming of Monterey. Another has
clerked it on a Mississppi steamer was blown up
and slightly killed. Some are or have been mar
ried; some are old batchelois. All have seen more
or less or life and its changeable scenes. They
are all live men, good practical printers, speaking
various languages, and form a newspaper corps
hard to surpass or equal.—Cincinnati Unionist.
Correspondence of the Journal of Commerce.
Anuriran Treaty With Persia.
Constantinople, April 15, 1857.
The vast Empire of Persia possesses immer se
resources ot a commercial and agricultural nature,
which it seems the present Government of tuts
country is desirous of developing. It is about
making treaties of commerce with several of the
Governments of Europe, and thus withdrawing
from its heretofore exclusive system. The
Official Gazette, published at Teheran in the
Persian language, contains the following article
on the subject ot the treaty with the United States,
which is not without interest:
“For some time past negotiations, have been
carried on between our Ambassador and the
Minister of the United States of America for the
conclusion of a treaty of commerce between this
Government and Persia. Latterly, during the
mission of the H. E. Feruk Khan, at Constantino
ple, under the command of the Shah, these negotia
tions were renewed with H. R Mr. Spencer, the
Minister of the American Government at that
place, and a treaty of friendship has been concluded
between the two countries. This treaty has been
now ratified by bis Majesty the Shah.
“This treaty of happy augury will strengthen
the friendship’already existing between the two
Governments of Persia (^ginnistan) and the
Republic of the United States of America. May
it be everlasting, aud promote tha interests of the
merchants aud inhabitants of the two countries !
We have a strong conviction that it will be of great
service to the future relations of the two countries,
as well as to the respective Governments.”
What these relations, political or commercial,
may hereafter become between Persia and tbe
United States cannot now be foreseen. Persia
has certainly a large commerce with Europe by the
way ofEraeroum and Trebizond, and it is’believed
that of tbe Persian Gulf is worth the attention of
our merchants. American vessels have, from time
to time, proceeded to that Gulf, and for the first
time two American ships visited last year Trebi
zond. It is true that, at the present time, the
trade overland from Trebizond is mostly In the
hands of the English, the French, and the Austrians,
and amounts to §20.000,000 annually; but there
is no reason why a portion of it may net hereafter
be taken by Americana.
