POETRY. From the Boston Palladium. THE SEAMAN’S HYMN. 4 Lord op the Sea ! Thy potent away Old Ocean's wildest waves obey; ■ The gale that whistles through the shrouds. The storm that drives the frighted clouds— If but thy whisper order peace,* How soon their rude commotions cease! Lord op-the Sea! The silent hour, And deep, dull calm, confess thy power; The Sun, that pours his welcome light. The Mood, that makes the dark scene-bright, The guiding Star, the fav’ring Wind, Display a good, a sovereign mind. Lord of the Sea ! The Seaman keep • From all the dangers of the deep ! When high the white capp’d billows rise, When tempests roar along the skies, W’hen foes or shoals awaken tear— O! in thy mercy be thou near Lord of thf. Sea ! When safe from harm, The sailor rests, in slumbers warm, May. dreams of home his spirit cheer— Dreams that shall never false appear; May thoughts of friends, of peace and thee, His solid consolations be ! . Lord of the sea ! A sea is life, Os care, of sorrow, woe and stj-ife! With watchful pains we steer along, To keep the right path, shun the wrong; God grant, that after every roaru, We gain an trcrlasting horns MISCELLANY. REMARKABLE PRESERVATION FROM DEATH AT SEA. From, Blackicood's Edinburgh Magazine. [Concluded from p. 172.] The night before I had had a severe rheumatism in my head, and now remem bered that 1 had somewhere about me a phial of laudanum. I swallowed the whole of it—and ere long a strange effect was produced. I fell into a deiinum, and felt a wild pleasure iif dancing along over the waves. I imagined myself in a vessel and cn a voyage, and had a dreamy impression that there was connected with it somelhiog of glory. Theh 1 believed, in a moment after, that I had been hound, thrown over hoard, and forsaken, by a mutinous crew. As these various fancies alternated, 1 recol lect, in my delirium,’bursting out into loud peals of laughter—singing to myself—and huzzaing with a mad kind of eijjoyment. Then, suddenly, a cold, tremulous sickness would fall on me—a weight of sadness and j despair. Every now and then tljpre came j these momentary'flashings of reality; but I the conviction of my personal identity soon ; gave way to those wilder fits, and I drifted along through the moonless darkness of the roaring night vrilh all the fierce exultation of a raving madman. No wonder. The laudanum, the cold, the wet, the dashing 1 , the buffetting, the agony, were enough to account for all tbi?, and more than my soul dare even now to shadow out to her shud-; dering recollection. But asGodpitied the j miserable, so also has he forgiven the I wicked thoughts of that unimaginable night. During one of these delirious fits, — whether it was a dream or a reality I know not, —but melhought I heard the most an gelical musick that ever breathed fromj heaven. It seemed to come on tlie winds ; —to rise up from the sea—to melt down from the stormy clouds. It was at last like a full band of instrumental musick, soft, deep, wild, such as I have heard play ing on board a ship of war. I saw a white gleam through the snow—l heard a rush ing noise with the musick—and the glori ous ghost of a ship went roaring pa*t me, all illuminated with lamps—her colours flying—every sail set, and her decks crowd ed with men. Perhaps a real ship sailed by with festivity on board. Or was it *a vision? Whatever it was, 1 felt no repining when it passed me by; it seemed some: thing wholly alien tp me ; the delirium had 3vallowed u[t all fear, all selfishness; the past and future were alike forgotten, and 1 kept floating along, Sell-questioned no lon ger, assured that I was somehow or other a part of the waves and the tempest, and that the wonderful and beautiful vision that had sailed by me was an aborigirtal Creature of the Ocean. There was unspeakable pride and grandeur in this delirium. I was more intensely conscious of a brightened exis tence than 1 ever was in the most glorious dream, and instead of fearing death, I felt as if I were immortal. This delirium, 1 think, must have gradu ally subsided during a kind of sleep, fori dimly recollect mixed images of pain and pleasure, land and sea, storm and calm, tears and laughtej\ J thought I had a com panion at my side, even her I best loved: now like an angel comforting me, and now like myself needing to be comforted, lying on my bosom cold, drenched, despairing, and insane, and uttering, with pale, quiver ing |ips, the most horrid and'dreadful im precation*. Once 1 heard, methought, a voice crying from below the waves, “ Hast thou forgot Theresa?” And looking down, I 6aw something like the glimmering of a shroud come slowly upwards, from a vast depth, to the surface of the water. I stooped down to embrace it,and in a moment a ghastly, blue-swollen fate, defeatured horribly, as if by gnawing teeth of sea- dashed against mine; and as it sank again, I knew well to whom belonged the hlaclr streaming hair. But I awoke. The delirium was gone, and I was at once a totally different creature. I awoke into a low, heartless, quaking, quivering, fear haunted, cowardly, and weeping despon dency, in which all fortitude was utterly prostrated. The excitement had worn out my very soul. A corpse rising out of a cold, clammy grave, could not have been more woe-begone, spiritless, bloodless. Every thing was seen in its absolute dread ful reality'. I was a castaway —no hope ot rescue.. It was broad day-light, and the storm had ceased; but clouds lay round the horizon, and no land was to he seen. What dreadful clouds! some black as pitch, and charged with thunder: others like cliffs of fire ; and here and there all stream ered over with blood, it was indeed a sullen, wrathful, and despairing sky. The sun itself was a dull, brazen orb, cold, dead and beamless. I beheld three ships atar off, but all their head3 yvere turned atvaj from me. For yvhole hours they would adhere motionless to the sea, while 1 drift ed away from them; and then a rushiug yviud would spring up, and sarry them one by one into the darkness of the stormy dis tance. Many birds canie close to me, as it to flap me with their large spreading wings, screamed round and round me, and then flew away in their strength, and beauty, and happiness. 1 now felt myself indeed dying. A calm came over me. I prayed devoutly (or for giveness of my sins, and for all my triends on earth. A ringing was in my ears, and l remember only’ the hollow fluctuations ol the sea with which I seemed to be blended, and a sinking down and down an unfathom able depth, which l thought yvas Death, and into the k ; *gflorn of the eternal Future. I avvokp from insensibility and oblivion with a hideous racking pain in my head and loins, and in a place of utter darkness. I heard a voice say, “ Praise the Lord.” My agony yvas dreadful, and 1 cried aloud. Wan, glimmering, melancholy lights kept moving to and fro.* 1 heard dismal whis perings, and now and then a pale silent ghost glided by. A hideous din yvas ov.er head, and around me the fierce dashing of the waves. Was lin the land of spirits? But yvhv strive to recount the mortal pain of my recovery, the soul-humbling grati tude that took possession of my being? 1 tyas lying in the cabin of a ship, and kindly tended by a humane anil skilful man. 1 had been picked up’ apparently dead and cold. The hand of God yvas. there. Adieu, my dear friend. It is now the hour of rest, and 1 hasten to fall down on my knees before the merciful Being wjio took pity upon me, and who, at the inter cession of our Redeemer, may, I hope, pardon all my sins. Yours, &c. , A GANDER TURNED FISHERMAN. From a Dumfries paper. Several years ago, a farmer who resided in the immediate neighbourhood of Loch tnaben, kept a ganJer, who not only had a trick of wandering himself, but also delight ed in piloting forth his cackling harem to weary themselves by ‘ circumnavigating their native lake, or in straying amidst for bidden fields cn the opposite shore. Wish ing to check this vagrant habit, he one day seized the gander just as he was about to. spring into ihe pure breast of his favourite element,and tyiug a huge fishing hook to his leg, to which was attached a part of a frog, he suffered him to proceed upon his voy age of discovery. As had been anticipated, this bait soon caught the eye of a greedy pike, which swallotving Ihe deadly hook, not only arrested the progress of the aston ished gander, but forced him to perform half a dozen of sommersets on the surface of the water ! For some time the struggle was most amusing; the fish pulling, and the bird screaming wilh all its might; the one attempting to fly, and the other to swim- from the invisible enemy ; the gan der the one moment losing, and the next regaining'h's centre of gravity, and casting between whiles many a rueful look at his snow-white fleet of geese and goslings,who cackled out their sympathy for their afflict ed commodore. At length victory declar ed in favour of the feathered angler, who, bearing away for the nearest shore, landed on the smooth, green grass, one of the finest [tikes ever caught in the Castle-lock. This adventure is said to have cured gander of his propensity for wanderit* ; hut on this point we are inclined to be a little skeptical ; particularly as we lately heard, that, at the reservoir near Glasgow, the country people are in the habit of em ploying ducks in this novel mode of fishing. We cannot, to be sure, vouch for this last fact; but in the days of yore, hawks were taught to bring down woodcocks and muir fowl, and why might not a similar course of training enable ducks to bring up pike and perch ? PANEGYRISTS. Paul Allen, editor of the Baltimore Mor ning Chronicle, observes : “ There is a mode of writing, frequently adopted amongst our countrymen, which, if carried much farther, will serve to confound all propriety and just discrimination, and that is exorbitancy of panegyrick. If the character of a man, for examples is drawn after deceasp, lie is, sans ceremonie, turn- j ed into an angel. Language is ransacked for new combinations, and these are all crowded as thick as possible into the char acter, ur.til it resemble* a moral firmament thickly studded with stars. In process of time, we are taught to look upon such shameless and glaring departure from truth as allowable licenses—Flatterers are em ployed to spread out panegyrick by the yard; one such violation of truth is pleaded in justification of another, until every thing , like congruity, taste and propriety is tram pled under foot. Prosperity (says Anachar&ii the Scythian phi losopher) bears three grapes—of drunkenness, pleasure and sorrow ; and happy it is, if the last can cure the mischiefs which the two former work. 176 CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS. A correspondent in the National Intolag of the 24th ult under the signature of Old ir tele, humourously relates the following inelanc ly accidents yhich have occurred in the ci } o Washington qnce th late improvement o 11 ! r streets. 1 _ , • . “On the 28th of last, month, as a 1 redericK county wagoner was whistling, his teuin,consis ing of six tine horses,all merrily jingling their bell!-, jus as he came nar the valuable improvement ale coriier by the Office of the Secretary ot ae, both driver, wagon, hoises and all, suddenly < is anpeared. Luckily, however,, the end ol toe driver’s whip remained visible above grounj, which being laid bold of by a hackman, broug ) the whole affair to light. The same day, a dandy sunk into a great hole near the Mansion House Hotel and wool,l certain ly have disappeared entirely, had not the immen sity of his pantaloons buoyed him up till a plan was launched to his assistance, by the am ol which he floated to Terra Firina. Two days after, a lady in a large hat, was pul led out of a hole near the corner of I street, by the feathers, ns it happened, very luckily, that her hat was fastened to her Irnad by three dozen and a half of hat pins. N. B. I,'he lady did not wear false hair. Last Wednesday, a poor lame sailor, in at tempting to make his way to the Navy Office, stuck in the mud, and was extricated only at the expense of his right leg, which was left in the hole. Luckily it happened to be a wooden leg, or there is no knowing what would have become of the poor man. * All persons are hereby cautioned against travelling in the aforesaid places, as it is very much suspected that several worthy persons, who have been missing some timefrom this place, are at the bott(iu of this bottomless business. During the Evolutionary war, when draughts were made frort the militia, to recruit the conti nental army, and certain captain gave liberty to the men who were draughted from his company, to make their objections, if they had any, against going into the service.. Accordingly, one of them, who hal an impediment in his speech, came up to the captain and made his bow. “ What is your objection ?” said the captain. “ I can’t go,’’ answers the man, “ because 1 st-st-sfut ter.” “Stutter!” says the captain, “yon don’t go there to talk, but to tight.” “Ay, but they’ll p p-pot me upon g-g-guard, and a man may go ha-ha-haif a mile, before J can say, “ wh-wh-who goes there?” “Oil, that is no objection, for they will place some other sentry with you, and he tyill challenge*, if you can fire.” “ Well, b-b-but I may be ta-ta-taken, and run through theg-g-guts, before I can cry qu-qn-qu-quarter.” This last plea prevailed, and the captain, out of humanity, (laughing heartily) dismissed him. _____ The prince of Aniabco, when he was in Eng land, walking out in St. James’ Park, in the af ternoon, observed one of his acquaintance driv ing in a phaeton, with four horses. The prince burst into a violent fit of laughter, and being ask ed the occasion of his mirth, he exclaimed, “Vat de divvel! has dat fellow ate so much dinner, dat it now four horses to carry him ! —1 rode out with him this morning, and he “was so light that von little horse ran away witli him. He must be either a great fool or a great glutton.” Another tinae his Friends insisted on his going to the play. He went, but was soon tired, and re turned to Vs companions. “ Well prince,” said they, “what did you seer” “Vat did I see ? 1 did see some men playing de fiddle, and some men playing de fool.”— Brydon's Tour through Sicily and Malta. Drawing the wrong Tooth. —One of the most curious applications of galvanism to the useful purposes of life is itjs recent employment as a means of distinguishing bad teeth from'good. The test which galvanism has now supplied to remedy the frequent mistakes made by dentists, who, instead of ridding you of a bad tooth, will draw the best you have in yonr head, is consider ed to be one of infallible certainty in its applica tion. The method is thus described by professor Aldini, the nephew of Galvani. “ He,” the dentist, “ first insulates the patient, and then places in his hand an electrick chain ; he then applies a small piece of wire, and draws it gradually over the surface of the tooth; he then applies it to the next tooth in the same man ner, and proceeds in the like method with the rest, until he comes to the diseased tooth, which is discovered by violent pain being produced, and an involuntary emotion in the body. It has always been remarked when the tooth has been extracted, that it exhibited a carious part, which in its proper situation was not visible.” Need we add, that after the discovery of so simple a test, drawing a wrong tooth ought to be made felony at least. Macklin's Advice to his Son. —“ i have often told you, that every man must be the maker or marrer of his own fortune. 1 repeat the doctrine: He who depends upon incessant industry and in tegrity, depends upon patrons nf the. noblest, the most exalted kind ; they are the creators of for tune and fame, the founders.of families, and never can disappoint or desert you. They control all human dealings, and turn even vicissitudes of unfortunate tendency to a contrary nature. You have genius, you have learning, you have indus try at times , but you want perseverance ; without it you can do nothing. I bid yon wear your mot-* to in your mind constantly— persevere.” Hints for Orators —Mr. Wortley Montague (the husband of Lady Mary Wortley Montague) was a gentleman of moderate capacity, with a good deal of phlegm in his constitution. We once saw a manuscript speech which he delivered in the House, and which he must have held with his hat before it while hespolce; and we recol lect certain notable hints which the orator had carefully arrayed along the margin; such as— -1 pause for a minute’— ‘ cough’— ‘ look round’— ‘ slow’—* loud,’ &c. Os a genius so tame and mechanical we can form no very exalted notion, either as a patriot or as a husband for Lady Mary; and suspect that if she had scuttled away to be married to the man of her father’s choice, she would have stood a better chance for happiness. [Quarterly Review. A filthy wretch, in a red jacket, who frequepts Merrion-sqnare, Dublin,observing an elderly Lady alone, implored charity in the name of all the Saints of the Calendar, vowing to God, if she did not give him a tenpenny, he would that day be driven to do a deed his nature shuddered at yet he would do it before sunset. Alarmed at his sit uation, the pious old lady, imagining he meditated suicide, gave him the money, and implored him to think of his immortal soul, and do nothing rash ly, adding—” But pray, my poor friend, what is it you would have been driven to do ?” ” Ah, my Ja j dy,” said the arch wag, tossing up the tenpenny, i “ I should have been driven to’ work for the bit, which I won’t do, please God, while this holds, any how.” Anecdote of George IV.- The twoOwyheeChiefs were introduced to his Majesty the other day at Carlton Palace. The King was amused with their conversation, through an interpreter, and asked a good many questions. Among other things, the elder Chief told him, he had six wives: upon which his Majesty good-humouredly observed “ Notwithstanding which you left vrfur country 1 —well, ! have but one, and I find that enough to I manage! t” uses Mew way of procuring a Job. —Last week a lad carrying on the buisnese of a (trolling glazier, stepped into a hardware store in this city, to pur chase a few nails. He staled that lie wanted them very sharp, and much pains were taken by the storekeeper to accomodate the lad, though little j dreaming at the time that his wit was sharper | than his nails. Having made his purchase he lelt the 6tore, but soon sought an opportunity to stick one of these sharp nails into the shutter tu such a manner, that in closing the window, the nail would come in coutact with the glass and break it. The plan succeeded, and a pane ot glass was broken. On examining into the cause, the nail was discovered. In the course of the next tore noon, along came the lad, and wished to know if they wanted “any glass set,” when the store keeper seized him, charged him with the ar tifice, and after a little threatening, he confessed it. As it appeared from the lad’s parents that this act was his debut in his crime, and having been made to “ see through his error” in the pain that it cost him, he was dismissed upon a promise never to be guilty of a like offence. 1 [JV.
