• — •’ A poet's band and prophet's Cm,
Struck the wild warblinga of ius lyre."
THE HAUNTED HOUSE.
BY MRS. HEMAXS.
I seem like one
Who treads aloqe
Some banquet-hall deserted,
Whose lights arc fled,
"Whose garlands dead,
And all but he departed.
•Moore.
Scestthou yon gray gleaming hall,
Where the deep-tlra shadows fall!
Voicr.6 that have left the earth
Long ago
Still are murmuring round its hcartli
Soft and low;
Ever there :—yet one alone
Hath the gift to hear their tone.
Guests come thither and depart,
Free of step and light of heart;
Children, w ith sweet visions L>less’<3,
Iu the haunted chambers rest;
One alone uns'uraberimr lies,
V* hen the night hath sealec all eyes,
One quick beartund watchful ear',
Listening for these whispers clear.
tSeest thou where the woodbine flowers
O’er yon low porch hang in showers?
faces of the dead,
Pale, yet sweet,
One lone woman’s entering tread
There still meet!
Rome with young smooth foreheads fair,
Faintly shining through bright hair ;
dome with reverend locks ufsuow—
AJI , all buried long ago!
All from under deep sea*waver.
Or the flowers of foreign graves,
Olthe old and bannered aisle,
W here their high tombs gleam the while,
4?is;ng, wandering, floating by.
Suddenly and silently,
•Through their earthly home and place,
Cut amidst another race.
therefore unto one alone
Are those sounds and visionsknovvn?
XJ herefo re hath that spell of power,
Dark and dread,
On her soul, a baleful -dower,
Thus been shed ?
■Oh ! in those deep-seeing eyes
fs.o strange gift of mystery lies!
She is lone where oneo she moved
Fair, and happy, and beloved^
Runny smiles were glancing round her ;
•Aow those silver cords are broken,
Those bright looks have left no token,
•Not one trace on all the earth,
Rave the memory of her mirth.
heis lone and lingering now,
Dreams have gather’d o’er hor brow,
iMidst gay song and children’s play,
She is dwelling far away ;
Seeing what none else may see—
Haunted still her place must be!
. DANCING.
Dancing claims its origin from the earliest
ages of the world. Joy and pleasure were at
first expressed by the natural motions of the
body, by irregular jumps and springs, but, in
process oftime, these irregular movements
were regulated by the sound of tho voice and
of musical instruments. Then, the motions
of the body and arms wtd the features also be
gan to express, after some acknowledged
principles, the passions of man. According
to the impulse of these, the feet moved cither
slowly or quickly.
It is to dancing that young pcojletire in
debted for that elasticity of their limbs, that
case in the motion ol their bodies, those polite
and agreeable manners, and prepossessing
graces which are all so ornamental in society.
The domain of dancingis immense. This art
possesses unbounded advantages and well ac
know lodged attributes. It certainly enhances,
embellishes, and perfects the work of nature.
T-enter an assembly and salute the company
with unaffected ease: to approach a person
with affection; to present or receive any
thing ;to sit down with an agreeable deport
ment to do away awkward timidity and rnau
to e hontc which denote weakness of cliarac
r; to display a frank and open countenance,
sweet and agreeable manners; to bannisli fop.
pish and sometimes insipid appearance; such
are the objects and benefits derived from this
degant art.
Every person may study the art of dancing
Without having any natural dispositions for it;
because thesemay be acquired by steady ex
ertions. However, such persons as are en
dowed with those who are not favouicd with
them; provided they arc properly taught.—
Taste must be considered as one of tho prin
cipal natural dispositiens for daucing, and is
u sure guide to success; with a good taste
\ye -acquire perfection rapidly in that art; but
without any, every tiling grows flat and insi
pid, and he who has no "share of it is compel
led to-abandon the practice of a a accomplish
ment for which nature has not intended him.
It often happens, that, dazzled by the bril
liancy and variety of steps, many pupils ima
gine that by performing the hardest and most
difficult ones they will thus render their tal
ent aim happy dispositions the more conspicu
ous. They -are mistaken ; for it is not the
quantity nor tlm difficulty, but the mode of ex
ecuting the steps which comma ■ U the atten
tion of connoisseur*. Sometimes it will re
guire several months of continual practice
and strenuous exertion to bo aide to perform,
according to the principles iff the art, a step,
the acquisition of which has been neglected
at first on account of its simplicity. Those
yrho have thus erred will, hereafter, form a
better judgment. He who w ishes to learn
dancing must study the first principles of the
j art, ana his success will bp in proportion to
his attention and perseverance. If the prin
ciples arc correct, a good taste will he created
and the pupil will know how to rid himself
i those violent and ridiculous contortions
winch ure frequently made by young dancers,
vhe thus qmtilate and disfigure tire beauties
ft -is 'clfgrM ttft-hmplishtnPMl
It is by following right principles, it is by
studying and practising tlici'i, that a hand
some and next mode of execution and a h.gli
degree af perfection may he attained. W lio
soever wishes to improve must, as \vc have
already said, study with attention and pa
tiencc; and, above all, not interrupt the course
of his studies with too long intervals. IVrse
vcrance insures improvement,and never fails
crown labour with success.
Dancing is to the body what reading is to
the mind. Reading good books enriches the
intellect, and causes it to shed a lustre, an
I eclat more brilliant than if it was left to the
simple resources of nature. Thus a scientific
mode of execution in dancing gives the body
advantages, which nature alone does not iin
part.
The effects of exertion. —Many years ago,
the present governor of Vermont met one of
our oldest and most respected citizens, in an
other part of the state, and said to him, ‘Sir,’
! l am desirous of obtaining an education. -My
f parents an; poor—owing to a deficiency in
j one of my hands, I am incompetent to do any
, work upop the farm, and m\ father is unable
to do any thing forinc. If you will allow me
tocomeand study with you, I will serve you
faithfully, and do your menial offices.’ The
boy’s offer was accepted. He applied liim
solt faithfully to the acquisition of knowledge
and in six or seven years, had acquired an cd
ucation, and a fund of important information.
His patron then gave him twenty dollars, a
horse and waggon and bade him God speed.
A few years afterwards, lie learned that a
right application of his intellectual powers
had made him a member of Congri ss, and his
next step was to the Chief Magistrate’s chair
of the State of Vormon t.— Conn. Mirror.

them, for their refusal to join a combination in
fixing one tariff of prices for Crockery, throm- h
outthe trade. It is mainly attributable to the'ni
fluence of our Southern friends that wc have been
enabled to survive thus far, in this most trying
situation; exposed to the combined influence, and
capital ol the whole trade, endeavoring to effect
our ruin and expulsion from business. We pledge
ourselves to our friends to give them every satis
faction in our power as regards the quality of our
goods, the excellence of our packers and the low
ness of our prices for cash or city acceptances •
and in return solicit from them a continuance of
their patronage, and particularly request those
who have influence with their friends to exert it
in our behalf, as we trust the cause is one thev
are all interested in and much benefit will acme
to us from their friendly acts in this way. It has
been said, the Combination was broken up As
it regards prices, this is true, and all, we think,
friends or ioes w illaljow that we have effected this
change; hut wc do asure our friends, that at no
pi .'Hid since we commenced our system of un
shackled prices were we in greater want of as
sistance than at the present moment. This com
bination ol men are leaving no means untried for
effecting our min, that they may revive the old
system; our credit and character are assailed in
every shape, our importations waylaid and stop
ped in every instance where threats are sufficient
to intimidate the manufactures from supplyinir
us: in fine, no vexation or trouble which the
malice of men could devise has been neglected in
tins struggle to subdue us. We once more call
upon every friend ofa free trade to come up to
our support, and pledge ourselves to give them no
cause to repent ot the ir liberality.

! A tea is published by JAMES WATSON'
W BB & CO. in the city of New ?orf, daily
n.ad semi-weekly, on fine paper of the
siy.. in its politic* it is purely democratic—ad
i hering to the principles and usages of th* Hepuh
j can i arty, and advocating the re-election oftien,
JACKSON, to the Presidency. Its columns - ,’rs
alike devoted to Foreign Intelligence, Moral's,
Literature!, and the Fine Arts, In Morals how.
ever, it does not act upon the Creed of Fanatics,
or Bigots, buton the contrary, inculcates - those
principles of morality and religion only, which
are founded upon peace and good will to all man
kind—the fruit of which ife tolerance and brother
ly affection instead* of ■‘persecution for opinion’s
sake.” All Bigots, Fanatics, Sunday Mail Ad
vocates, and Church and* .-tale-men are opposed
on principle, and their hypocrisy and' machina
tions fearlessly exposed.
lu consequence of the other Daily Papers ia
New A ork, determining not to board vessels and
receive their news on Sunday ; the Publishers
ot the Courier & Enquirer have lately vested
nearly $4,000 in a seperate “New Establshment,”
the support of which will add about $3,000 in
their annual expenses. Vessels from Europe
will be boarded at sea, long before they reach
the harbor, and their news disseminated through
the country with moro titan ordinary despatch.
In incurring this heavy increase of expenditure,
the Proprietors look for remuneration to a II who
feel an interest in the affairs of the Old World,,
and if they have properly estimated the popular
feeling in relation to this matter,they will he effi
ciently sustained in the course they have adopted.
It. does not become them to speak of thn mat>
nerin which their Editorial Department is con
ducted—lt may be stated however, that Assist
ant Editors and Reporters are employed at liberal
salaries, and il the Commercial, Political, Litera
ry, Foreigr and Domestic News, wore not at leas:
equal to any other Journal, it would scarcely
have acquired in the short period of five years, a
greater daily circulation than any other paper in
America! Yet such is the fact, and at this me .
intis! the Courier & Enquirer circulates daily in
the city 01 New York more than one hundred per
cent more papers than any of its cotempornries.
Daily papers sent out of the city, are not prin
ted until 2 o’clock !*. M. when all the News re
eaived by the morning Mails, or Iff Foreign arri
vals, are inserted in a Second Edition —dudt
the Daily subscribers in the country, literally re
ceive a Morning and Evening Puper combined;
and this being the only paper collecting news on
Sunday, it follows of couroe that the news by
all foreign arrivals on that day, will lie found i
the cclumns of the Courier & Enquirer only.
A Price Current and Review of the Market will
he published weekly, and the Second Edition
will always notice any change which may occur
in the state of our market. Whatever appearsin
the Daily Paper, will of course also be published
in the Semiweekly.
TERMS—DaiIy Paper, $lO per annum.. Sem
iweekly Paper $ 1 a year— payable in advance.
N. IL—All Postmasters who have no objec
tions to act as our agents, arc requested to receive
subscriptions and remit the money at the risk ot
the publishers, at the time of ordering the pepor.
It is expected that they will retain in their hand
10 per cent of the amount received, as a retnune
ratiou for their trouble.
