AND AGRICULTURAL AND MERCANTILE- INTELLIGENCEB. The Jmacellanlst. From the Baltimore Minerca. A NIGHT IN A TOMB. , The following recital we put down from, memory. It was given lissome years ago bv a friend and relation, v. ho happened to be I "■hut up with the death for about twelve-hours : during his sojourn at Genoa. “It was a delightful afternoon, ar.d I had i hecn sauntering from street to sreet, gazing j in the shop windows, and marking with qu ger curiosity all that was worthy of notice. J Tired of theneiseand bustle ef the city, tho pressure-of the crown, and the continual plea dingof beggars, 1 determined to take u stroll round the suburbs, and, it possible, indulge aglow of romance, which seldom fail to over take travellers who sojourn in Italv. The sun tv as but a few degrees front the western horizon, and from north to south stretched a. lonir, narrow cloud ol a thousand hues, the nether edge ot which looked like a stream of molten gold- The clear blue sky—the hal. lowed silence which seemed to rest upon the lull and glen—the cxhilirating incense that rose front the lap of nature, invited me forth, and I wandered, scarcely knowing which way I was bending my step. I always loved to saunter in butial places, there is a pleasing kind ot melancholy sur rounding a-tomb, which-accords well with the long and solemn sleep of the dead. It is plea '.mt to contrast the simple epitaph of the hum ble and virtuous dead with the pompous os cutchcns and gilded eulogies of the illustri -0,13 reflect on the unerring hand which places he humble on a level with the proud : the beggar with the king. I entered a burial ground by the side of the road, and contem plated the form and structure of every monu ment, moralizing without the aid of Harvey or koung, upon the mutability of human great nes3. At the extreme end of the ground 1 observed a man at work, repairing an ancient and decayed vault; and, thinking I might have an Opportunity of meditating on a skull, I advanced towards him, and for a while, con versed with him upon his occupation. The fellow was shrewd and witty, and like the grave digger in Hamlet, turuWoJ th c dry i bones about as ii they were lumps of* wood". ! It was a tomb Ix.!onging to ancient and illus trious family ; l therefore entered it that I I might tacc note of the manner in which it was arranged, and meditate more copiously on the perishable Bring calk'd Man. A solemn silence of course, reigned in the house of the dead, and the cotfins, with their, contents—-the crumbling remnants of mor tality,lay on each side, some still bearing the polish of the maker, others rotten arid worm eaten. I seated myself on one of them, ami very naturally begun to meditate on the frail ness of human vanity, the little span of life, and the power ot dearii. .My meditation might have filled volumes—beautv, wealth, honor, strength, vanity, deceit, virtue, valor and hy pocrisy, all lay on a common level before ine —what they bad been 1 asked not, what they were I know. How long I meditated I know not; but J fathomed the mysteries of the grave—-I plunged into the bottomless abyss of eternity—l revelled with multitudes of de parted beings, and even Scanned the laws of everlasting life. Suddenly a mist passed over my eyes, and 1 groped in midnight dark ness; then again I was arraigned before tho awful Court of Death, and ghastly forms stood before me, while gibbering spectres veiled most unnatural sounds in tny cats. I heard the rattling of dry bones, and the hollow groa ning-i of unfledged souls that were preparing to , f’tdcr ?ho ghostly court. Lambent streams ot fire ever and anon darted before my vision, and gave me a bright glimpse of the glorious heaven that lay beyond the horrible tribunal bolero which I stood. I caunot describe the dreadful phantoms that beset me.on all sides —the cold and bony lingers that grasped my hand and welcomed me among the eternal— tho rattling jaws that pressed my checks, and the putrid smell of tongneless mouths ! 1 screamed with horror and ogonony, but my -creams were only echoed by a wild veil anil' unearthly chattering—l stood, in truth, a liv ing one aunyig the dead of ages—flesh a tnoug bones, vanity "amidst, nothingness. I would have fled, but horrid skeletons besot’ me on every side, and I stood passive until my flesh became animated, and thousands of living things crawled over my body, consu ming it mite alter inito, until nought was left but an anatomy of bone ; my brains then he g.tn to wither, my eyes melt in their sockets, tny teeth rattle in the fleshless jaws—l stood alone the last fragment of mortality. ..Sud denly the earth gave way with a loud crash ami—l awoke ! but not in the blessed lie-ht —my weight broke through the lid of the ; coffin on which I had stretched myself, and hot/ many joints and ribs of its senseless in mate I dis.ocatcd, I cannot suv, tor I dul not take the time to count them. My first thought,' after wiping the cold sweaf from my brow, was to make lor the entrance of tho sepulchre but I was enveloped in total darkness and and knew not which way to turn, f could hoar the steady dropping of the water front the damp ceiling of the vault, and now and then the cheerful croak of a solitary toad—at periods a low, rumbling noise like distant thunder was heard above, and then the sol emn. peal of the convent clock as it tolled out twcltc —‘the dread hour when restless spirits are said to stalk-forth, when the clntrch-vard yawns, and its ghostly tenants wander over tlio earth. 1 turued to the right, amt my hand i'< 11 upon the damp ltd of a rotten collin—the’ lilootl gushed back to my heart; it was real itv—it was no dream—and l was entombed alive ! Oil! the agony of that moment,• home tricuds, and the most trilling enjoyments of lite were now a thousand times more dcaT to me t.tan they ever had been. j'o starve to death—to commune thus with the d< ad and j to 1 ),: helped to a sepulchre before my tittle, ; were tho ughts not in the l turned to the left, in ltopss ot finding the j door. and 1 stumbled over skulls and rotten j bones— horrors upon horrors ? < old -Iroj>s ran down my checks, and I tr-m --bled, though at flip time I was ashamed ofmy iears. J’bns the whole night passed, thought alter thought, and dread after dread. In t| )C morning the vault door opened, and the glo rious cf tho reinjriri hurst :a upon nr —I never hailed it with more joy; and after low he irty curses upo i the workmen for his carelessness in iockingine up in to uncom fortable a domicile, .1 made the best of iny way borne determined never again to meditate among the tombs.” 1 —>9e— From the Casket. THE TOWER OT ELOQUENCE. lie that reposes his confidence in the lofty to\v< r, or the jmiiderous gate, and thinks that they will afford sufficient protection against outward a&*ault-or internal excitement, will he most assuredly disappointed. An indivi dual standing alone, unprotected, but by the overshadowing heavens, without hope of safe ty or triumph, but in his own muscle*—and destitute of counsel, except from the man dates of an aspiring soul, or the directions of an heroic spirit, can do more for himself and for those who depend upon his single arm, than thousands trembling behind an impene trable rampart., or speeding their arrows from the high battlement. The strength of such an individual is seat jed in the heart—the fountam of human gym i pathv. M hence issue the stern decrees of judg ment as well as the playful imaginings of pas sion. Mo ved by its ardour, his frame is in vigorated—under its inl’ueinfe he laughs at fear, and scorn fatigue—be bravely courts I the rude shock of battle—he listens to the loud clash af arms without a shudder; and and when grim Danger presents her haggard form, he meets her fearlessly—lie rushes on with a zeaLnot to be crushed by the vicissi tudes of fortune—he fights till the death-blow | —he fights even while groaning amid the ag onies of convulsed nature, i When the vital spark is extinguished, then I sinks to ashes the fire of the warrior’s courage, ! hut till that moment lie .is a hero, weak in bo dy, but mighty in soul as ever. Such is the ardour (halt btrtnsin the bosom of the patriot. We soft in the true ’statesman, jeal<ips of hie country’s honor, and regardful of the people’s interest. It walks with him and gives an aw ful sublimity to his counsel. When aroused to its warmest blaze—when it rages with its own peculiar energy, it is this thunders from riic tongue of the orator —yes, this ardour be comes a sound and bursts upon the startled ear—infuses itself injo the united heart of a melted, an admiring, a fascinated audience, and carries with an irresistable impetuosity every feeling or passion of the heart onward with its< If. This is eloquence—this is its power, which lias in all ages been a proud and fearless con queror, which has melted down hearts of mar bic—made tyrants tremble on their thrones. With but a single exertion—with but one loud! peal it can “Stir a fever in the blood of age, And make infant's sinews strong as stc-e!.’’ It is a powerful engine, which, though often' the cause of misery, has advanced to an ox-1 alted point cf tho situation of man. In polit-1 ical affairs it is an indispensable attendant, j for if the man of wisdom do;,-- not possess the ! happy faculty of appealing to the passions as well as to the judgment—to the heart as well as to the mind—he is comparatively insigni ficant. He is like a candle hid under a bush el, whose light is not seen. The cultivation of eloquence therefore is of the highest im portance t.) him who would shine conspicu ously in the legislative hal;—to him who would see his name high on the list of Fame. To tho advocate, of what advantage is it— he may plead the widow’s cause successfully —lie may wipe the tears from the eye of the orphan, and maker oppifg, lien’s self Uu.all of her ow n turpitude. To all men of all condi tion, the power ot eloquence is above every thing desirable—let it then be cultivated,anil let our own lands continue to be as it lias been, a land famed lor her eloquent states man: Let not the names of Webster or Clay or Henry or Hamilton, be the la.-d of Ameri can orators, but let our youth follow on in their track, and fill those high places, which they now fill on the bright picture of their country ’s renown. D. 11. T. Reputation.*—• Reputation is every thin?? in the world. It is the paper currency of life ; of much more personal convenience than weighty and cumbersome reality. The meth ods and short cuts to this attainment are va rious :—Would you be thought patriotic : talk loud and often of your sensitive regard (or the interests of your country ;—pledge your “life, fortune and sacred honor —you will probably never be called upon to make tile sacrifices Would you be thought a hard stu dent, and learned—be seen walking 'through tlie streets,'tltten, w ith a great hook in hand, it is far easier to carry knowledge under the arm than in the head ; and watking is a more healthy than sedf’rftury study. Is the repu tation of piety your wish ! look more to the hearts of others t han your own ;—make long and loud .prayers with your windows, open.- Would you be a business axßi—fhriviug— rich? Bustle; talk of the pressure of busi ness,—of your gains, stocks, dividends, Ac. You will get credit in this way, and most of the advantages of wealth, without its weights and all the anxiety of mind it brings along with it. Naina Observer.
