Boisterous IVeelher — For the last two days
'ho weather has been boisterous, accompanied
by heavy mins. The wind has principally been
from N. E., and all of yesterday blew a pot feet
gale.
The schr. Empire has been ready for aea since
the 1st in*t., but has bsen kept in port by
reason of bend winds.
The rain which has fallen for the last two days
lia« bean much needed. Vegetation was suf*
feting much from the drought.and the Morn*,
of which crop it may lie said that it is unequal
led in the United States, had rotnmetired cast*

Tho whole proces* of reducing tho‘rough ash

immediate application to building, is porformed
by tho machine, and, as we ntiaorslood by the
person who Imd it in care, at an immense saving
of labor. We cannot speak a* to the exact sav

Tha m.tuhuiH is truly ingenious, working with
wonderful oxuctnes*. and we should think that
every machinist in tho city would feel gratified
to observe its motions, while stone cutters and

BY Mias T.ANDOtf.
ITOh.weop no more, sweet mother,
Oh. weep no more to-night;
And only watch th* sea. mother,
Beneath the morning light.
Then the bright blue sky is joyful,
And th* bright blue sky i* clear,
And I can see. sweet mother,
To kisa away thy tear.
But now the wind goes wailing
O’er i he dark and trackless deep;
And I know yuiir grief sweet mother.
Though I only hear you weep.
My father's ship will come mother,
In safety o’er the main;
When the grapes are dyad with purple,
Ha will be buck again.
The vines were but in blossom
When he bade me watch them grow,
And now the large leaves, mother,
Conceal their crimson glow.
He’ll bring n* shells nnd sea weed,
And birds nf shining wing;
But what are these, dear mother?
It is himself he’ll bring,
Our beautiful Madonna
Will mark how you have wept.
The prayers nfearly morning,
The vigils yon havo kept.
Sho will guide his stately vessel.
Though the sea be da>k nnd drear,
Another weok ofsiiit'hine—
M> father wiII he here.
I’ll watch with thee, swoot mother,
But the •tarn fade from my light;
Come, come and sleep, dear mother,
Oh, weep no more touiight

eticy of his speech, nud the strangeness of hi*
maimer, told him that the law furbnde his ni ll-
ing it, unless tho purchuser was accompanied
by a witness; the applicant then went out and
immediately returned with another person, iu
whom it seemed he was a stranger, but who for
a ‘treat,’ had consented to accompany him to
tho shop, though ho was ignorant ol the renl ob,
jt*cl of the farmer. Tho druggist still suspect
ing that ‘all was not right,’ made up a pucket.not
of arsenic, but of cieain of tartar; his ciistumei
then departed. The farmer went homo, retired
|o bed, and secretly took liis supposed pni-un;
immediately after which, feeling un ‘awful’ in.
terual rumbling, he called his wife and family lo
his beside, confessed that the reproaches of hi*
conscience had diiven him to desperation, that
he had bought arsenic, hod taken it. that he felt
ins death wu* at hand, und therefore hs conjured
all tho idle to take warning by his fate; anil lur
sake, before it wos too lato, the paths of indot

confession occasioned may be imagined, though
il cannot be described—the poor wife in liyuter-

heartily joined. Ou Tiiesd y last his wife came
to tho city purposely tn thunk tho druggist f 0f
