SABBATH DAYS.
Types of eternal rest—fair bu<l« of bliss,
tu hcnvenh thiwcrs unfolding week bv week;
The next world’s gladness, imaged forth in this—
Pats ot whose worth the ehristiuu heart can speak.
Eternity in Time—the steps by whit b
Wo climb to future ugo<—lamps that light
Nan through Ins darker days, and thought enrich,
Yielding redemption fur the week’s dull flight.
A milky-way marked out through skies else drear,
Bv radiant suns that warm ns well as shine ;
A clue which he who follows knows no fear,
Though briars and thorns around his pathway twine.
Davs fixed by God for intercourse with dust,
Co raise our thoughts and purity our powers;
Periods appointed to renew our trust,—
A gleam of glory after six days’ showers.
Foretastes of heaven on earth—pledges of joy,
Surpassing fancy’s flights and fiction’s story—
The preludes of a feast that cannot cloy,
And the blight out-courts of immortal glory.
Boston, April 23, 1839.
The ProFf.ssdr and the Student. — A. professor of
Latin in the University of Edinburg, now no more, having de
tired the students to give liini a list of their names in Latin,
was greatly surprised at seeing written on a slip of paper the
name of “Joannes Ovum Novum.”
After in vain seeking for a translation of litis, he at last be
came convinced that it was one of those dark Latin passages,
to decypher which even the skill of Bentley would have failed,
or that it was a ii.mx. He therefore the next day, in the class,
read out the three dark words, and desired the writer of them to
stand.
One of his pupils immediately rose.
“What are you ?” said the professor.
“ A poor scholar, sir,” was the answer.
“A very poor scholar indeed, sir, or you would never have
written such stuff as Joannes Ovum Novum. That can’t be
your name, sir.”
“ I don’t see said the student, “ where yon could find better
Latin; mv name is John Agnew. Ovum for egg, (Ag) No-!
rum, for new ; Ovum Novum—egg new.”
The professor seeing that he bad rather the worst of it, im
mediately laid his finger on his forehead, and looking at his
hopeful pupil, who was standing somewhat in the altitude of a
drill sergeant, exclaimed in a pitiful voice—
“ Alas! alas! something wrong here, I doubt.” “Maybe
so,” shouted “Ovum Novum.” “ Something may be wrong
there ; but,” striking his hand upon his own forehead, “there
is nothing wrong here."
Theodore Hook.
A very pretty coquette resident at Saint Albans, had been pre
engaged to a country gentleman in that neighborhood, to accompany
him in a dance at a ball given at the Town-hall. A gallant captain,
however, ililervem (I, and in a jet ring mood, persuaded the young
ladv to abandon her previous engagement, in favoi of himself. To
this she assented. The plain yeoman, overhearing all that had pas
sed, with a frigid indifference moved towards a card-table and sat
■down to it rubber of whist. The captain in a few minutes afterwards
tripping! l stepped up to a lady, and bow’in”, made a hundred apol
ogies for an unl-ireven mistake he had fallen into, saying, that he
had quite forgotten the circumstance, but that lie had engaged him
self to hand a ladv down the following dance, on his fust entering the
room, but that her first engagement would stand good, and he would
attend her in the two consecutive dances. The neglected one over
heard all mat p:iss< d, and a short time had elapsed when the new fig
ure was ptoclaimed. The lady, approaching the whist-table said, I
believe, Mr. 8., it is time for us to take our positions. The old-fash
ioned suitor, in the act of dividing the pack for the next dealer, cour
teously replied, No! madam ; 1 mean to keep my position—when
ladies shuffie, 1 cut.
House of Coburg.— The house of Saxe-Coburg is indisputably
the most fortunate of all the existing great families of Europe. No
common lot lias attended them in our time, and they appear destined
to till a remarkable place in modem history. The reigning Duke
has sticceede I to the inheritance of the duclt .’ of Saxe-Gotha, which
he enjovs in addition to his original sovereignty ot Coburg. His
brother Leopold was born under an extraoidiuary star; he first mar
ried the heiress to the British throne, and subsequently a daughter of
the king of tie- French; two ladies t>oi kss amiable than elevated ;
and, after declining the tlitune of Greece, he has been chosen the
King of Belgium. One sister espoused the Archduke <'cnstanlitie
of Russia, and thus in the ordinary course of events would have be
come Empress of all the Russia*. The history of another sister, the
Duchess of Kent, is too well known to require comment; she is the
mother of the Queen of England. - Another brother has married one
of the greatest heiresses of the Austrian empire, the daughter of Hie
Prince of Kohary, and occupies the high post of Lieutenant Field-
Marshall in the service of the emperor. Finally, a nephew of the
Duchess of Kent is the reigning King of Portugal. An impartial
review of the progress of this distinguished family, compels os to
.4ldd)lhat it does not owe its success to unworthy intrigue ; its mem
iters bear their great estate with prudence, with good sense, and w ith
moderation ; and their domestic qualities form an antidote to the ve
nom which generally pursues a career of success.— Hawkins' Gtr'y.
New Dovetail.—A new method of dovetailing has re
cently been discovered, ami a machine to cut the wood, so that
jt is done with great ilespa ch. Instead of the two edges of
board which are to be fastened together being cut in alternate
notches and teeth, the hook and groove are cut perpendicular
upon the edges of the boards respectively, those edges being
each bevelled upon an angle of forty-five degrees, so as to di
vide the right equally. On the edge of one board, the groove
is cut, and the hook upon the other. It is a very pretty as well
as useful and economical invention. The inventor is Mr
Da vis, who has one of the machines in operation at Castle
Garden.— Jour, of Com.
A man without money and a heart full of philanthropy,
w hose coat is a little threadbare, is shunned like a thief; a man
with a pocket full of money, and a heart full of villainy, is
courted for his virtues. The re is a magic in wealth.
, -Jonathan Mason, a soldier ot the Revolution, died recently at
1 amworth, N. I)., in the 74th year of his age. It is related of him
that he was taken prisoner by the British, and on being brought be
fore Burgoyne, that General said to him, “Well mv lad, what do
youthink of yourself now 1” His reply was, “I think you will all
be prisoners within two weeks.” The General then exclaimed with
an oath, “All the Yankees in America cannot make a prisoner of
me. In three weeks from that day be and his army were prison

Attentionl
PEOPLE of a’d nations, of all religious denominations, and of all
occupations :
You are hereby respectfully invited to attend a sale on tho twenty
third day of July next, at 11 o'clock, in the forenoon, of the lots of the
new town of Summerville, Chattooga County, Georgia.
This town is situate on a gently undulating piece of ground in the en
chanting valley of Chattooga River, on its western bank, having Tay
lor's ex tensive ridge of mountains, in beautiful prospect to to the East,
and lofty spurs of the Lookout mountain to the West. Immediately at
the northwest end of the Town, is a beautiful blue limestone spring, issu
ing several hogsheads of the most limpid w ater per minute, and upon
the northeastern part of the town, several other fountains are to be found,
which have never ceased to issue pure and limpid water. Here rhe dys
peptic w ho has found nostrums and learned doctors* means ineffectual,
may come in the certainty of the use of these waters, and inhaling the
atmosphere of the most healthful section of country upon our Globe,
radically healing his impaired digestive organs. We would, therefore,
especially invite the dyspeptic, and all those who desire to keep free
from this fashionable disease, to come and purchase lots or farms in the
vicinity. The lots are admirably sized and shaped, for merchants’ stores
and dwellings, mechanic's workshops, their dwellings and gardens, the
horticulturist, and last not least the silk cuhurist. Here the merchant
may vend a reasonable amounlof goods, at fair profits ; the house joiner,
the brick and stone mason, the carriage maker, the black and white
smith, the watchmaker and the tailor, may get profitable employment,
in their respective line of business.
A seminary of high order, for the education of females, is about being
established in the vicinity of I his place. and the earliest attention will be
given to the establishment of a male academy.
We regret the inadequacy of our humble pen to describe nature’s best
effort for the grandeur of scenery of the surrounding country of this en
chanting spot; it would take the pen of a Cooper, or a Sytnmes, to do
justice to the subject.
Cotton, small grain, and silk, will be the staples of this country, and
believe him not. who will tell you, that the Georgia mountain valley*
will not produce as much cotton per acre, as the best lauds in Moigan,
Green, Jefferson or Burke comities.
The terms of sale will be one-fifth cash, the residue in equal instal
ments ar six, twelve, eighteen and twenty four months. Purchaser*
giving their uotes, which, on being paid, perfected titles will be given.
