Trip lightly over trouble. Trip lightly over wrung. We only make grief double By dwelling on it long. Why clasp woe’s hand so tightly? Why sigh o’er blossoms dead? Why cling to forms unsightly? Why not to joy instead? Trip lightly ovei sorrow*, Though this day may bo dark: The sun may shine to-morrow. And gladly sing the lark; Fair hope has not departed. Though roses may have fled, Then never bo down hearted, But look for joy instead. Trip lightly over sadness, Stand not to rail at doom, We’ve pearls to string of gladness, On this side of the tomb; While stars are nightly shining, And Heaven is overhead, Encourage not repining. But look for joy instead. Y ery beautiful is the k following ‘Remembrance' from tne pen of Praed: There are tones that will haunt us, tlio’ lonely Our paths be o’er mountain or sea, There are looks thav will part from us only When memory ceases to be. There are hopes which our burdens can lighten, Tho’ toilsome and steep be the way. And dreams that like moonlight can brighten, With a light that is clearer than day A weather prophet, writing to an agricultural paper, says:—-When you wish to know what tho weather is to be go out and select the smallest cloud yon see: keep your eye upon it, and if it decreases and disappears, it shows a state of the air which will be sure to followed by fine weather; but, if it increases in size, take your great coat with you, if you are going from home, ter falling weather w ill not be far off. The reason is this; w hen the air is becoming charged with electricity, you will see every cloud attnctingall lesser ones to wards it, until it gathers into a shower; and on tbe contrary, when the fluid is passing otT or diffusing itself, then a large cloud will be seen breaking to pieces and dissolving. We are decidedly in favor of early marriages (says tbe Hartford Courant,)and on that account congratulate Marcellas Clark, Esq., the Postmas ter at New Britain, upon his new life partnership signed, cealed, and witnessed, on Wednesday afternoon. As the happy bridegroom passes on to middle life, and thence to a ripe old age, may I10 never repent his early mrrriage. “Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them; [children] they shall not he ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.” Y F es—and break down every “gate” on his premises., swinging on them. Still, we second the motion of our brother Day, as applied to friend Clarke. For far more joy “Marcellus” married feels. Than a poor “bach”—no children at his heels. Some years ago two twin brothers residing in the city of Boston. Mass., met w iili an accident on tho same day. One broke a fine cambric needle in the palm of his hand, the point was so very minute that it could not be discovered, but the hand became extremely painful: mortification supervened and in a few days the gentleman died in the greatest agony from lockjaw The same hour, the other brother in attempting to cross Dock Square, was run into by a sulky, the right shaft of which ran completely through his body, inflicting a severe and apparently a very danger ous vvounu. He was carried to his residence seemingly more dead than alive, but he fully re covered aud is now as healthy a man as can be found.

No au- j thority was given by the Legislature to the Trus- . tecs of the Academy or to the Commissioners to 1*1.11 out their privileges, or to transfer the profits jot’ the lottery to 8 wan *V Co., or tunny other party. The expenses of the lottery were to bo j paid, and when the profits amounted to five thous and dollars, the authority granted hy the Legis- j lature expired. I Swan A Co. have been indicted in Richmond very important Superior Court for doing a lottery business under “ fT ** * 1 ~ this act, and if they justify themselves, it must he on the ground that the profits of the lottery, ver aud above its proper and necessary expenses, amounted to five thousand dollars; or, that the Trustees have a legal right to conrcr up on them, for an indefinite time and at any price agreed upon, the rights and privileges granted by the Legislature ot' I*“26*, w ithout any regard to the leal aud legitimate profits of the lottery from the sale of tickets, Ac. The first ground will not be plead, for doubtless tin* profits have been much more than • The second ground would be absurd. The Trus tees of Sparta Academy could doubtless dispose t the right which w as conferred upon them, but lays since, and heard that Messrs. Swan A Co.; had been presented to the Richmond county, at the instance of Mayor Tie maun, of New York, on a charge of acting under a fraudulent charter. But we certainly discovered no evidence of unusual excitement. We saw Samuel himself, looking as “cool as a cucumber,” The Constitutionalist, ot yesff-rday morning says: The affair created no “great excitement” here, nor excitement of any kind, that we heard any-j thiug about, nor has a single paper in this city or this State made any reference to it so far as we i have noticed. [After the statement from the New York papers, i with Mr. Wood’s card, the editor adds]: That our readers may determine in their own * minds whether the charter under which Messrs Swan A: Co are acting is a good one, we publish the original act of 18*26 granting it.

Tin- very pleasur able feelings which accompany drowning and hanging, have been recorded by uumbers who have been recovered after consciousness bad ceased. Death from cold we should suppose to be one of the worst forms in which the kind «>f terrors could approach: but instead of the frosty heroes wo picture, the victim finds himself rocked at last into a soothing slumber “I had treated.” says Dr Kan*-, iu his Arctic Explorations, “;lic sle* yy com fort of freezing, as something like the embellish ment of romance. 1 had evidence now to tho contrary.

Whereas, hy the thirteenth article of a treaty made and concluded at Washington on the sixth day of May, ono thousand e ght hundred and titty-jour, between the United 8taets of America and the Delaware Indians, a grant of four sections of land was made to the Christian Indians, fur which a patent was to b** issued to the said Indians, “subject to such restrictions as Congress may provide;” and whereas a pa tent was so issued to them on the twenty-first day of May, eighteen hundred and fifty-seven; and whereas, it fully appear*, by the evidence and papers on file before the Committee on In dian Affairs, that the four sections of land set apart by said treaty was, on the twnity-ninth day <ff May, eighteen hundred end fifty-seven, sold and conveyed hy said Christian Indians to one A.
