Tbe folio wing beautiful line? (sy the Boston
Centinel) it is supposed were written in ablu
tion to • wedding which took place m Woroe.-
ter on the lOthNov. We think we can rec
ognize the writer of them.
THE WEDDING.
The bright beings 1 saw, in unsorrowing youth*
Pledge their holiest vows in the language of truth.
And declare that while life’s bounding pulses
shall roll— ... ,
Thus lastingly:—soul should be blended to soul.
Ift stood in the pride of his youth—a fair form—
flis spirit yet noble—his feeling* yet warm—
An Eagle—to shelter the Dove with his wing—
An Elm—where tbe light twining tendrils might
cling.
Some dark colour’d tresses—a beautiful braid.
Interwoven with flowers, on her forehead *va laid ;
A pure golden chain o’er htr white neck was
thrown.
And a pale azure girdle encircled her zone.
Her robe was as white as the ocean’s wave foam,
Or as snow when it rests in its far away home,
£re it leaves the high heavenly place of its birth,
To melt and be last on our desolate earth.
And I thought too,while silently gazing on them,
That their besoms were brightened by love’s peer
less gem,
And that hope had thrown over lift’s thorn-plant
ed way,
Her lovliest bloom and her sunniest ray—
That laughing-eyed Joy had just routed old Care,
And crown’d with new roses, was revelling there ;
He smil’d and declared that his day should uot
end,
While Mustek would sooth him or Beauty would
tend.
I sigh’d too, to think, aod I trembled to fear,
That Love might be jogging in one little year ;
That Hope’s mountain rose might soon wither and
fade,
And toy in the cold grave of Sorrow be laid.
But I pray’d and 1 hoped that it might not be so,
That still they should love both in weal and in
woe,
And the chain they have link’d in Jile’s sorrowless
prime,
Might not be corroded or weakened by time.
MISCELLANEOUS.
Prom the Connecticut Mirror, Nor. 15.
The following is furnished by a friend on the
accuracy of whose statements we can rely, and to
whom we should like to be indebted for further 1
communications. The result of these experi
ments seems to settle a question about which the
learned have disputed so long.
1 had lately an opportunity of crossing the At- ‘
lantick to make some experiments, with a view
to satisfy myself as to the alleged fact, that water ‘
will force itself through the sides of an empty bot
tle when sunk deep in the ocean. Tbs result is
at the service of the Mirror.
In the first place J sunk to the depth of 120 fa- ]
thorn* an empty porter bottle, stopped with a
strong cork and sealed with wax. It was drawn j
up full of water,, the cork unmoved, but the wax ,
evidently clacked. I noticed that considerable ,
wafer flowed out in small bubbles through tbe s
seal. 1 believe it was a similar phenomenon f
which led Mr. Perkins to infer the compressibility a
of water.
I then prepared (wo strong phials and three boL ,
ties and sunk them together to a depth of 120 fa- j
thorns.
1. A phial with a ground glass stopper sealed
with wax, came up with about a spoonful of wa- ,
ter iu it. ,
2. A square thick phial with a lead stopper
sealed with wax, was broken by the pressure of
the water.
3. A porter bottle with a lead stopper sealed
with wax, came up with about a gill of water in
it,
4. A porter pottle with a pine stopper carefully
adapted and driven in,and the neck covered withs
a tight cap of shee* lead and sealed with wax, 1
came up perfectly empty. r
This experiment demonstrates the error of the r
supposition that the water will force itself through I
the sides of the bottle, and leads to the inference
that in the preceding experiments a* well as in
those upon which the supposition has been eraun- “
ded, the water was forced through some imper
fection in the seal of the bottle.
5. The fifth bottle was filled with fresh water, ’
and strona'y slopped with a cork. To my aston j ‘
j-hoient it came up filled with sea water! This I
result must have arisen from the difference of spe
cifick gravity between fresh and salt water.
* I
We perceive by a London paper, that bet* i
to a large amount have been offered and taken
upon the issue of the trial of Fauntleroy, who it
will be remembered stands indicted for forgery to
a great amount, and that the penalty of this
crime is death by the law of England. Here
ihese miserable wretches have a direct pecuniary
interest in the death of a fellow being, and would
exult to bear of his execution, not because he
was a guilty man, but because their own pocket*
would be replenished will) money. They are the
gambler* of life and death, and should be shunned -
and abhorred as monsters not belonging to the i
species of man. Wien ‘English tourists think i
proper to abuse American manners, they may be
defied to point out an instance where a coffin has
been substituted for a gaming table.— Balt. Jim.
Pulmonary Consumption. —ln the incipient,
and, nideed, in more advanced stages of this un
happy complaint, the inhaling of the fumes aris
ing from the burning of a composition, the basis
of which is supposed to be common tar, has been
of singular utility. A Mr. Timewell, of Poole,
Dorsetshire, has employed it with extraordinary
success; the modus operandi he thus explains—
“ The first symptoms of this horrid disease are
generally accompanied by nn irritation which
arise* from the excoriation of that beautiful and
delicate structure, the lining of the air tubes,
which no medicine can possibly reach ; these- ex
coriations aggravated by the cough, gradually de
generate into open and destructive ulcers,whereas
the fumigation coming in immediate contact with
these excoriations, or, perhaps, small ulcers, it
heals them, the cough ceases, the patient gains
strength, and ultimately recovers.”
Post Office Department . — By the annual report
of the Post Master General, it appears, that the
total amount of receipts for postage for the three
quarters ending 30th June last wa* $870,066 33;
that the amount of expenditures during the same
period was $068,121 50; leaving the sum of $lO,-
714 03 more than the expenses of the Depart
ment. The Increase of the receipts during the
above period over those of the corresponding
quarters of the year preceeding, is stated at $42,-
767 14; the estimated increase in the 4th quar
ter is put at $15,000; making an augmentation*
of receipts for the four quarters of nearly $68,000.!

never corrected any of his mistakes ; and be who ‘
wa never wise enough to find mistakes iu him-’

Taxing Pedlart, —A committee of the Vertaoß*
Legislature having reported a bill for taxing ped
Im, Mr. Deming moved that the Bill be dismissed.
Mr. Haight said he was walking by a pedlar’s
cart the other day, and heard him cry out, Uo
tor strops for tale, warranted to shaft without a
razor .’ audit is so, sir, with those who go about
with calicoes, Ac. They will be very likely to
shave your family, wife end children, without a
razor.” He believed it would be good policy to
pas* the bill on the table,
Mr Knapen was in favonr of dismissing the
bill,and said he would inquire whether there were
not some merchants who shaved without a rotor f
Mr. Arnold said he believed that pedlars were
not in the habit of carrying about anient spirits to
give to their customers, as merchants are in the
habit of doing, to encourage people to trade—and
he thought this praatice frequently incapacitated
people to guard against being shaved “ without a
razor,” as the gentleman from Monkton tells
about.
Mr. Keyes said, a* for himself, he cared very
little about this hill, but said he was for preserv
ing equality among merchants (for a pedlar is a
merchant with bi*"store on his back, travelling
from house to house to accommodate hi* custom
ers and sell his goods ) Gentlemen are afraid to
trust their women to trade With them, but, Mr.
, Speaker, I*ll risk my wife with a pedlar; and if
other gentlemen will get such wives as they can
risk property with, there ran be no trouble !
On the question, Shall the Bill be dismissed ?
The yeas were 120—nays 73.
Lord Byron and the Women.—From the ex
tracts we have read from Lord Byron’s Conver
sations, it cannot fail to be a popular work One
thing is quite clear, that he will never more be a
favourite with the Ladies. He declares in so roa
nv words, that he “ had a great contempt for
woman.” He thinks that in the civilized Chris
tian nations of Europe, women are in an unnatu
ral state of society. The Turks and Eastern
people, said he, manage these matters much bet
ter than we do. They lock them up and they
are much happier. Give a woman a looking
glass and a few sugar plums, and she will be sat
isfied.” Os bis own exquisite descriptions of wo
men he says, he only drew them as a painter or
statuary would —as they should be.
Dem. Press.
Rhyme and /Jenson.—A letter recently passed
through Maysville, Kentucky, on which was the
following ingenious inscription :
“To John Williams , a labouring man,
Who shoes can make, and leather tan,
Tbi* letter mut go to, if e’er so lucky,
A place called Lexington, in Kentucky .”
A circumstance of a similar nature occurred in
London some time since The rhyme in this in
stance, however, was not original ; but the appli
cation of it was not the less amusing. An honest
cordwainer, a namesake of Pope’s hero, Balaam ,
received a letter thiongh the post office directed
in this manner.—A*. Y. Pat.
“ Where London’s column pointing to the skies,
Like a tall bully lifts its head and lies,
There dwells a citizen well known to fame,
A plain, good oau, an.l Balaam is his name.”

We copy the following qaeer notice from the 1

my breakfast, on credit , which is contrary to my .
wishes—therefore, caution all persons against :
giving my cook, my *e]f, or any other person con- ,
