When everything was hushed and still. Which made each hair stand straight with fright, Stiff as the porcupine’s last quill. Methought that petticoats had grown To such a vast and monstrous size, . That there was room for them alone— And noue for man—beneath the sk:os. The beasts and every creeping thing Had died. The flowers bloomed no more, The grass and tender herbs ot spring Were withered on the desert shore ; Ten million leagues of crinoline Stretched over like a funeral pall; And on the cold and cheerless scene, The sun's warm rays could never fait. On Ararat's cloud-curtained peak. The last man stood with pallid face. Sick, trembling, weary, worn and weak— Sad remnant of a smothering race. In vain—alas : poor man in vain— His footsteps sought that rest of old. For clouds of skirts soon tilled tho plain, Ai.d hid the mountain in their fold. Still bigger grew these spheres of white, Until they reached the summit high, And streamed above the wretched wight, Like snowy banners in the sky, The man looked o'er the precipice, “Make way for petticoats!” he cried. And plunging down the dark abyss. Made way for petticoats—and died. BYWEYIAL. To all the young misses who wish to be wise, I beg you will open your ears and your eyes, And candidly listen to iny good advice— Be sure that you marry for money. Don’t marry for beauty—it soon will decay, Y'our lover’ll grow toothless and shrivel away, llis pretty mustaches will all turn so gray— Be sure that you marry for money. Don't marry for learning—away .vith your schools, Y'ou know that to college they always send fools, And some of them come out most wonderful tools— Be caieful and marry for money. Don’t marry for intellect—such a dull man Is always discussing some subject or plan ; lie cannot talk nonsense, or won’t, if he can— I charge you, look out for the money. Don't marry for honor—for what is a name ? A bubble that’s burst up—a broken glass pane ; A foot-ball that's kicked round the ring, for a game, Then marry alone for the money. Don’t marry of LOVE! such an old fashioned thing Will only disquiet and penury bring; But good bread and cheese—THAT HAS THE TRUE KING. Provided you marry for money. But look ere you leap—do not jump in the dark, Or fall in love with a fop or a spark ; But take a sfiauch bachelor—that is the mark— If he should have plenty of money. EARLY HEflORIE!*.

CATHARINE WILLIAMSON, Adm’x. July 24th, 1858. (j.h. 8.) 12 9t. Matrimony on the Decline.—While it is to be deplored, it is nevertheless true, that there is less marrying than in times past. YVhy is it so ? This question lias been discussed in the pub lic press—aud it has been asserted, with much truth, we tliiiik, that it is ou account of the ex travagance of the Fair Sex—voting men would marry, but they can’t afford it: the young ladies think of nothing hut the ’fashions, anJ imagine that after marriage all their extravagant ideas will be realized. Now “a, wife looks prettiest, if she did but know it, in her neat morning dress of calico, than in an incongruous pile of finery which she dignifies with the title of full dress. Many an un married female first, wins the heart of her future husband in some simple, unpretending attire, if consulted about which, she would pronounce too cheap except for ordinary wear, but which by its accidental suitability to her figure, face and car riage, idealize her youth wonderfully. If the sex would study taste in dress more, and care less for costliness, they tvonld have no reason to regret it. That's so ladies, depend upon it. It is perfectly natural and proper. A foolish and silly man is no.; worth marrying, and a sensible mau will sure ly judge you advantageously in exact ratio to the plainness and simplicity of your dress.” But oth ers who gallantly come forward and defend the ladies, assert that this decline in matrimony is ow ing to the extravagance of the young men—they can’t ‘‘afford” to give up their cigars,'old wine, fast horses, &c., and will not give up their liberty, and tie themselves to a woman’s apron-string—unless— forsooth, she is rich. When will young men learn that dissipation does not bring happiness? When will the young ladies lay aside tlieir adora tion of dress, and become the sensible, reasonable beings God designed they should he? We fear it will be when time has faded the cheeks of the one—and wine has ruined the constitution of the other. The ladies can work a reformation—will they do it ? A lady recently cleared her house of flics by putting honey cm her husband’s whiskers when lie was asleep. The flies stuck fast, and when he went out of the house lie carried them off with him. How many volumes might be written on the power cf trifles! A single atom, like a cipher in arithmetic, may assume incalculable importance from its position. A spider web saved Mahomet from his pursuers. The frailty of Count Julian’s daughter introduced the Saracens into Spain.— Cromwell came near being strangled in his cradle by a monkey. Henry VIII was smitten with the beauty of a girl of eighteen, and lo ! the Reforma tion. An honest Norfolk farmer, who had seen Rich ard III performed one night, waited upon the man ager next morning to say that it the gentleman who wanted a horse on ilie previous evening held his mind, he had got an abundance of cattle in his meadow, and should be happy to deal with him. Human life is one great Saturday, in which the world should get ready for Sunday, closing up ac counts with time, and putting things in order for a holiday. Gentleman asking young ladies to ‘share tlieir lots in life,’ should be particular in stating the size of the lot aud its value per acre. “My dear Polly, I am surprised at your wear ing another woman’s hair on your head,” said Mr. Smith to his wife. “My dear Joe. I am equally astonished that you persist in wearing another sheep’s wool on your back.” “Tha deacon of an Arkansas church, upon whom a new pastor had been settled, was praising his many good qualities to the deacon of a neigh boring church. He declared that their naw minis ter bad but one fault in the world, and that was a propensity to become a little qtutrreltome when he was drunk." From the Montgomery Mail. Another Hat-full. Joel.” A short yarn was spun to us last evening, of and concerning the experiments in milling of a couple of friends of ours, now or lately sojourning for health and pleasure at the Talladega Springs. It is unnecessary to give the names of these gentle men, but for convenience we will call them, re spectively, John and Joel. They, it may be re marked, have great similarity of tastes, and among other penchants, are very fond of fishing : aud everybody knows that the vicinity of Talladega Springs offers fine opportunity to the skillful knight of the fly. Thus, John and Joel—there being no religious services at the Springs that day—went out, Sun day before last, to the Mill of Mr. P , a mile or two down the creek, with a view to a dinner of small trout and bream. With them went their invi ted guest, Mr. Smith, and “Miles” “contrived” them down a bottle or two of wine. The party was snug : the wind was propitious : and the fish amiable. A cosy, nice dinner of brown and crisp mountain fish was soon washed down wiih a few glasses of champagne; and then ci gars were lit. As the smoke curled languidly about their noses, Satan (who was invisibly pres-: ent, without an invitation,) suggested to John, that that mill was a “slow coach,” and couldn't cut much lumber; and John expressed the same opinion to Joel. Joel thought differently, and so did Smith. w “Let’s try her,” said John. “Agreed,” said Joel and Smith. It was short w ork; a large pine long lay at right angles across the carriage of the mill: and it was agioed to “let her rip” through this. Accordingly, the gate was raised and immediately the stillness of “the grand old woods” was broken by the ra pid, sharp stokes of the saw. In a minute the log was brought up and the saw went rapidly through. “Now stop her,” said Joel—and Smith and John essayed to do so. But the mill wouldn’t bo stopped, but went clat tering away, as hard as ever! “Stop her, John, or liy the Lord she’ll split her self in two,” shouted Joel. But all the fixtures were obstinate and refused to yield to the exer tions of John and Smith. On weut the saw, while John and Joel perspired. Presently the carriage presented some metalie obstruction to the passage of the saw, but “true ns steel,” it went against the obstruction—and then the teeth flew. [Some pieces of mill iron had been left npou the carriage way.] But yet it ceased not—up and down! up and down ! the true steel to the dull cast iron, until suddenly a small flame broke out among the dust and splinters near the point of contact. “Great G—d. John,” said Joel; “the infernal machine is on fire YVhat shall we do?” “Run down to the creek aud bring up your hat full of water,” said John. Joel looked affection ately at his handsome tile which is always kept neatly brushed, but submitting to a dire necessity he straightway made it a tire bucket and commen ced fighting the flames. John and Smith’s straws were unavailable ; nevertheless, they did all those wild, inconsiderate things which most persons will do, in case of tire, when there is no possibility of doing any good. Still that toothless saw ripped on, singing a de mon soug as it scraped against the dull, cast iron. Aud the fire kept gaining a little. Joel labored faithfully, and every two minutes brought up his hat full ot water and threw it upon the fire. John stood despairingly leaning against a post in the mill, and hullooed to his friend, as he seemed to pause at the brink of the stream— “Another hat-full, Joel, for God’s sake! The infernal thing will cost us at least $1200 apiece, if it burns!” “Besides my hut!" said Joel; hut he brought the water and poured it on. On went the dcvelish saw, rakiug, rasping, and tearing itseif to pieces. At this juncture, Mr. P., the owner of the mill, having seen the smoke, came down to the mill, and with great difficulty the saw was stopped and the | fire put out. Joel was grievously “blown” with i carrying water in his hat and John was quite used j up with excitement, while Smith njjwi breathless , from his exertions at some lever whict) he suppos- i ed might have some influence in quieting the de-; mon law. i “Gentlemen,” said the proprietor, very politely, I “It is easy enough to see why you couldn’t stop the saw after you set it a-going. This mill has! some new arrangements which I can easily ex-1 plain—-” r„.i-n.... j,.n a going and / shall neter start another! Just send us your bill for damages, aud let’s say no more about it. The “boys” paid $60 for not knowing how to stop a saw, and that night John, in a feverish sleep, (he has that blessing, chills and fever,) shouted to his room-mate— “One more hat-full, Joel!” Cretn, the Diver. The New York Courier Sf Emjuirer gives the fol lowing narrative of the descent of Green, the diver to the Atlantic, lyiug at the bottom of Lake Erie. Poor Green! his daring was too severely punished: Not many months since a vessel was lost in a water whose depth at the place of the foundering was about one hundred and seventy-four feet. There was a portion of the cargo so valuable that it became advisable to use every effort possible to recover it. It was scarcely possible to do any thing. It was so far beyond all ordinary means of human action; it might be reached, though it would be a bold attempt by the diver. He was sought and found, and a recompense, which, on land, would be a princely one, was guaranteed to him. Men will do more than “does become a mau” for rich reward. To feed him with air, a powerful pump, worked by six men, was brought, and a hose doubly strengthened, was made. All the appliances that the most liberal management could suggest were ready for his aid. He was surrounded by intelligence and courage aud hu manity. He dared the deep water once, twice, seven times. The men at the break of the air-pump wrought with the might of earnest strength. They fed the vital current of the bold diver, and he had the courage to trust them. Their work was his breath. YY’lien he came up he told the gentleman that superintended the trial, that the air at that depth, as the machinery forced it to him, crackled and hissed like the frying of hot fat, and that every movement of the pump fell ou his breast like the blow of the crow-bar! Y’ou go down no more for me, said the kind-hearted gentleman who stood by him, as he came on deck. In the intensity of ail his experience, this too daring man besought for the opportunity lor another trial. The gentleman refused, but the diver insisted on going for him self. lie went, and returned a paralysed man, aud just holding life, now crawls along. The claret bottle at his girdle; corked tightly and empty, was filled when he came hack, though the cork was not disturbed. The water had forced itself beyond power of cork or glass. Looking on the Bright Side.—Here is a letter from a wife in Missachnsetts to her husband in*Califor- nia. She don’t intend going through the world with the blues: "My Dear Husband-. As it is some time since you left for California, I suppose you would he glad to hear how we are getting along in your absence. I am happy to say that we are all enjoying very good health on the whole. Just at present, two of the hoys have got the small pox. Amanda Jane has got the typhus fever. Betsy is down with the measles. Samuel got hocked by a cow the other day, and little Peter lias just chopped off three of his ringers with the hatchet. It is a mercy he did'nt chop them all off. With these trifling exceptions, we are all well aud getting along nicely. You needn’t be at all anxious about us. I almost forgot, to say that Sarah Matilda eloped last week with a tin peddler. Poor girl! she’s been waiting for the last ten y£ars for a chance, and I’m glad site's got married at last. She needn’t have taken the trouble to elope, though, for I’m sure I was glad to have her go. She was a great eater, and I find baked beans don’t go off near so fast now as they did. The way that girl would dip into pork and beans was a caution to the rest of tho family. The cow took it into her head yesterday to run away,- which was very fortunate. I’m sure, for the barn caught fire last night and was consumed. I was in hopes the house would go too, for it’s very inconvenient, but the wind was the wrong way, so it didn’t, receive much injury. Some boys broke into the orchard the other dav and stripped all the fruit trees. 1 am very glad of*it, for it they hadn’t I presume the children would have made themselves sick by eat ing too much fruit. Hoping you enjoy yourself in California ns well as we do at home, I remain your affectionate wife.” The Bottom of the Atlantic.—It has now been satisfactorily ascertained by Lieut. Maury, that the basin ot the Atlantic ocean is a long trough, separating the Old World from the New, and ex tending from po’e to pole. From the top of Chimborazo to the bottom of the ocean at the deepest place reached by the plummet in the Northern Atlantic the distance in a vertical line is nine miles. The deepest part of the Northern Atlantic is probably some where between the Bermudas and the Grand Banks. The waters of the Gulf of Mexico are held in a basin about a mile deep in the deepest part. There is at tbe bot tom of the sea between Cape Ifcce m New Foundland and Cape Clear in Ireland, a remarka ble steppe, which is already known as the tele graphic plateau” The great circle distance be tween these two shore lines »s sixteen hundred miles, and the sea along this route is probably nowhere more than ten thousand feetdeep. TkMuu Jcflfcnaa. .. Jefferson _ was a public professor of his be lief in the Christian religion. In all his most important early State papers, snehasa Summary View of the Rights of British America, his portion of the declaration made by Congress * on thtt Causes of taking up Arms, the Declaration of Independence the draft of a Constitution for Vir ginia, etc., there are more or less pointed recog nations of God and Providence. In his two in- nagural addresses as President of the United States and in many of his annual messages, bri makes the same recognation—clothes them on aefoeral occasions in the most explicit language—substan tially avows the God ol his faith to be tbe God of revelation—declares his belief in the efficacy of prayer, and the duty ot ascriptions of praise to the author of all mercies—and speaks of the Chris tian religion as professed in his country as a benign religion evincing the favor of Heaven. Had his wishes been consulted, the symbol borne on our national seal would have contained P u il!i c P r . 0,esSi on of Christianity as a nation. 1 here is nothing in his writings, or in the bisto ry of his life, to show that his public declarations were insincere, or thrown out for mere effect. On the contrary, his most confidential writings sus tain Ins public professions, and advance beyond them into the avowal of a belief in a future state of rewards and punishment. He coutrinuted freely to the erection of Chris tian churches, gave money to Bible societies ana other religious objects, and was a liberal aud regu lar contributor to the support of the clergy. Let ters of his are extant, which show him urging, with respectifnl delicacy, the acceptance of extra and unsolicited contributions, on the pastor of his parish, on occasions of extra expense, to the latter, such as the building of a house, the meeting of an eccelesiastical convention at Charlottesville, etc. ni these letters he assumes that he is only per forming a duty, and pleasantly compares it to the discharge of a special service, by a feudal inferior to his lie^e lord, on those extraordinary occasions when it was required by the feudal law. He attended church with as much regularity as most of the members of the congregation—some times going alone on horseback, when his family remained at home. He generally attended the Episcopal church, and when he did so, always carried his prayer-book, and joined in the respon ses and prayers of the congregation. He was bap tised into the Episcopal church in his infancy; he was married by one of its clergymen; his wife lived and died a member of it; his children were baptised into it, and when married, were married according to its rites; its burial services were read over those of them who preceded him to the grave, over his wife, aud finally over himself. No person ever heard him utter a word of pro fanity, and those who met him most familiarly through periods of acquaintance extending from two or three to twenty or thirty years, declare that they never heard a word of impiety, or any scoff at religion, from his lips. Among his numerous familiar acquaintances, we have not fond one whose testimony is different—or who entertained any doubts of the strict justice, sincerity, truthful ness, and cxemplariuess of his personal character' [ Randall's Life. Lore iu the Cars.—The editor of the Harrisburg Telegraph is informed of a singular adventure which occurred on the passenger train of cars ar riving at Harrisburg from the East oil Saturday evening last. In one of tho cars a young gentle man was seated, apparently deeply occupied in- reading a book lie held iu his hand, until he got to Lancaster. At this place a very handsome young lady entered the cars and took her seat op posite to him. Before they had been long in the train, the eyes of both met, and they recognized one another ns old acquaintances—when very young, having been separated by their parent# moving apart—those of one to the West and the other to Philadelphia. The two soon became en- rapt in earnest conversation, fell ardently in love with one another, and by the time, they arrived at Harrisburg had resolved to.be united as man and wife and trayel on their journey to the lady S home together. Accordingly they took lodgings at a hotel, sent for a minister, and were united in the bonds of connubial bliss, and taking the next train, were off on their bridal tour. The Tele graphs informant says he is acquainted with the parties, and that they both occupy high positions in society. Spurgeon, the Distinguished English Divine.— As Spurgeon, the celebrated English Divine, whose preaching has created suc.h an excitement in Great Britain, is about to visit this country, a short description of him will not be uninteresting. Mr. Field, the London correspondent of the New Y’ork Evangelist, who heard him preach lately, to an audience of eight or ten thousand persons, it) Musical Hall, in that city, says: Never had a public speaker a more unpromising exterior than Mr. Spurgeon. He is very short and very fat, and altogether what we should call chubby, and as he goes waddling up the stairs he looks more like an overgrown hoy than a fully developed man. Nor does his countenance be token superior intellect. His forehead is low, and his upper lip is so short that it shows qtrencS^annofcome^Suf ol^suchamoutnisTSaL But the impression which a phyisognomist might form from these dull and heavy features is dispelled as soon as he begins to speak. Then his countenance lights up with animation. His voice full and clear, and rings through the hall like a clarion, tilling every ear with melodious sound. He speaks extemporaneously, without a bote, and his singular eloquence and simplicity of language are most remarkable, and have given him greater notoriety than any other clergyman in England. So great arc the crowds that flock to. hear him that a small fee is charged for admission, in order to prevent confusion and disorder. He speaks twelve times a week, and yet enjoys excellent health. Solecism in Manners.—There are few things more disagreeable than to be kept waiting in a drawing room or library, when you have come to pay a visit to the lady of the house. To be kept waiting indicates either that your call is intrusive, the lady is not acquainted with the rules of good breeding, that you are upon such an intimate foot ing that any liberty can be taken with you, or that an elaborate array is absolutely essential to thehos- ess being at all presentable. This evil prevails to a disagreeable extent, aud its prevalence manifests a degree of carelessness in domestic dress which is worthy of all reprehensions. It is presumed that a lady is always neat, and derives no adven titious succor from the circumstances of the toilet. She should therefore, on the announcement of tb« presence of visitors in the drawing room, hasten to receive them in the same attire in which she ap pears in her family circle, and by the readiness of her reception, evince its cordiality and welcome. A delay of a quarter of an hour should be taken as a tacit hint that a repetition of the call will be considered a bore, while any further delay should be construe 1 into a decided am] most unequivacal affront. “Railroad Car stopped by a Frog.—Those who have traveled over the Fifth and Sixth street Pas senger Railroad, to its nothern termius at Frank- ford, are aware that there are quite a number of ponds along the upper section. These ponds abound with frogs, who nightly hold Italian con certs for the benefit of all persons who don’t under stand the language. It appears however that one of the Conductors, who ny the way is a clever, energetic, and accommodating man, and who un derstands the language, stopped his car a night or two since, in consequence of an old frog calling out in hoarse tones, hold up! hold up!! hold up 1 !! —The night was dark, and the gloom was only relieved by the rays from the red light on tbe trout of the car.

Hold up! hold up!! still rung upon the midnight air “I am holding up.” shouted cut the Conductor, why, don’t you come. After wait ing patiently forseverai minutes the truth became apparent.

A plain flat slab, with the simple inscription of the names of Benjamin Franklin and his wife Deborah, marks the spot. Directly over this grave runs a telegraph wire, across which the lightening which Franklin first con trolled is constantly flashing communications of intelligence, noting daily the progress of events and incidents of consequence in the world. So a gentleman informs us, who has recently visited the grave.—Hartford Times. A young lady that live* near 9 railroad crossing appears to have no occupation except perpetually poking her head out of the window. A wag, tho other morning, hailed her from the street:— “Hallo, Miss!” “Hallo, Miss?” “What do you want?” said she, after the first flush of indignation at being thus accosted. “The bell ain’t rung yet,’ r was the answer. • “What do you mean?” asked Miss. “Why,” was the reply, “that sign says you’re to ‘look out when the hell rings, bat you are look- ins? out all the time.* F l’he young lady’s head disappeared with a j id the window went down with a slam. •jerk, ia \ and A person who was recently called in court for the purpose of pro ving the correctuess of a doctor’s bill, was asked if “the doctor did not make several visits after the patient was out of danger?” “No,’' replied the witness, “I considered the patient in danger as long as the doctor continued his visits'”
