(Brins from tjje ports. From the Louisville Journal. the coral. Low beneath the waves of ocean, Up the coral toiieih .'low', Heeding not the wild commotion Os its ceaseless ebb and flow ; Through the weary lapse of ages, Yielded) never to despair, Though the watery demon rages, ’Twixt it and the reaims ot air. Now above the deep uprearing, S.ow, niajestical its head, Greeteth it the sunlight cheering; O'er its dews of heaven a.e -hed ; And the subject waves are bringing, Wnh a blind. submissive toil, Earthly mould, that, clo ely clinging, Tunis die coral lees to soil. And it riseth high and higher, By ihe earthquake’s hidden throe, Still to heaven approaching Higher From its watery gulf below ; Till, at last, a verdant island Siandeth in its beauty there, Where, from valley and fiom highland, Goeth up the voice of prayer. ***** Low beneath the sea of Error Up the truth is toiling slow, Heeding not his waves of terror, Ua.kiy surging to and fro: Th.ough ihe of ages weary Y.etde h never to de.pair, Though a darkness thick and dreary Shutieth out the upper air. Now above the false uprearing Slow its calm and tadianthead, Moral night is disappearing Whe.e i.s holy light is shed ; And the w.ongs of tormer eras, Vanquished by its heavenly might, Biing, iranslormed, their old chimeras, Handmaids, now, of truth and right. And it riseth high and higher, Wi.h each strife of liberty; Still to heaven ascending mgher, Heaven, its summit’s destiny ! Till it stands a mountain hoa.y, Resting oil foundations broad, Over which a path ol glory Leadeih earnest souls to God. From the Home Journal. THE FLAG OF OUR UNION. “A song for our banner!”—The Watchword recall. Which gave the republic her station : “United we stand, divided we fall!” It made and preserves us a nation. The union of lakes —the uuion of lands— The union of States none can sever— The union of hearts—the union of hands — And the Flag of the Union for ever And ever! The Flag of our Union for ever ! What God in his Infinite Wisdom designed, And aimed wnh Republican thunder, Not all the earth’s despots and factions com bined, Have the power to conquer or sunder ! The union ol lakes—ihe union of lands— The un.on of Slates none can sever— The union of hearts—the union of hands— And the flag of the Umon for ever And ever! The flag of our Union forever ! HOME. BY CALDER CAMPBELL. The Homeless! Who a.e homeless? All who have No kindred heart to which for sympathy In gne! or gladness (as the case may be) To tuin: and therefore through life’s journey ciave The home they find not here, within the grave, Whose nariow doors to wide Eternity Unclo. e a path which holy hope doth pave With ihe soli blooms of Immortality ! Whate’er is human clings to home. Alas! For such as have no shelter from the roar Os physical or moral storms! For rest We ptt.e, knowing, while Time doth pass, Thai how. oever high the lark may soar, It always hovers o’er its little ne=t! [ The Critic. Iprapliij for tljr Trojilr. IRON HOUSES. A young man in New York, has in vented anew mode of constructing iron houses, oi which tiie Tribune gives the following dese; iption: “It embraces a ligid frame of east iron pillars, with other parts of sheet iron. Pillars ot peculiar construction are placed at equal distances, and each interlocks with the girders and cross sills, as well as the lintels, door and window'traiues, and all the parts which require to be firm, or to biace other pa:ts. 1 lie panels are of sheet-iron, as also are the floors, ceilings, and shut ters for the doors and windows. To every part of the house there is an in e'ior and an exterior wall, leav ing an air-chamber between. By this means, each room, if desired, may be made fire-proof. The root is also of iron, and couples to the walls and floors. Ihe frame may be ornament ed in the casting, as taste shall dictate, and the whole may he painted to per fection, equal to the finest fresco work. Ihe house will resist any kind of at mosphere m the most perfect manner, and when put together, is so strong that it may be turned over and back again, without injury. These buildings will be more desirable than any other, and may be taken apart in a few hours,and reputtogetheron another site with entire facility. I laving been taken apart, one may be packed in a small space, as the whole is in small sectional pieces, so as to be fitted for rebuilding, and for changing the form, or extending in either direction, or in the height, with in a few hours, without preventing its use while being so altered or added to, and without loss of any of the material ot the original building.’’ •• Self Waiting Dinner Table.”— This is the title of an invention by Mr. Lamb, ot Howard county, Indiana, which is thus described by the State Journal: The table is circular in form, and so arranged that the portion on which the various dishes are set revolves slowly round, so that you can help yourself to whatever you wish, without calling for the aid of a servant orany one else. It is a very independent way of eating, and may come into general use at taverns and boarding-houses. In the centre of the table, a fan and fly-brush are so ar ranged, as to pass round that portion of the table containing the di-hes, with such rapidity as to drive off all the flies, and to keep up a tine circulation of air. In a hot day day, this part of the con cern w'ould be comfortable. Critical Niceties. —ln speaking of numbers of flocks, we must say, a herd ot deer, a bevy of roes, a sounder of swine, a rout of wolves, a richess of martens, a brace of bucks, foxes, or hares, a couple of rabbits, a covey of partridges, and a nide of pheasants.— 1 here are also terms for their lodgings: a hart is said to harbour, a buck lodges, a roe bed-, a bate seats or forms, a rab bit sits, a fox kennels, a marten trees, an otter watches, a badger earths, a boar couches, a patridge lies, a phea sant roosts. THE FIRE ANNIHILATOR. Some experiments were exhibited by Mr. Phillips at the London Gas-works, Vauxhall, last week, to show the pow er of his invention for extinguishing tires, by surrounding them with an ar tificial atmosphere of a gas which will not support combustion. A large com partment of an open building, twenty feet high, was fitted up inside with par titions and joistings ot light wood soak ed in turpentineand covered with pitch, and was overhung with drapery charged in ihe same manner. On the applica tion of a flaming brand the building was alight throughoutalmost instantly, and in a few minutes the spectators were driven to a considerable distance by the scorching urgency of the towering body of lire. \\ hen the stimulated ca tastrophe had reached a height beyond all control by water, Mr. Phillips pro jected from a hand-machine into the building, a volume of incombustible vapour, which, in halt-a-minute, per fectly extinguished the fire ; and short ly after, when the building had Ibeen ventilated by the breeze, lie passed through the divisions of the compart ment with a lighted taper in his hand. The appatatus used is thus described; —“ It was rather larger than a good sized coffee-pot, and consisted of three tin cases, one within another, and mu tually eommuieatmg. r lhere was a small quantity of water in the bottom ofthe machine, and in + he centre ease was a composite cake of the size and colour of peat, containing in the mid dle of it a phial of sulphuric acid and chlorate of potash. In order to put the machine into action this phial is bro ken, and a gaseous vapour is generated so rapidly and in such quantity that it immediately rushes out from a lateral spout with great impetuosity.” Acom eompany lias been formed to bring the invention into practical use. —Loudon Paper. A MONSTER BALLOON. A discovery, which, if successful, is destined to change the whole social system of the world, is to be tried, in the gardens of the Observatoire, in a few days. M. Patin, the aerostat, after a series of ruinous experiments, has succeeded in fabricating a balloon, or, rather, a collection of balloons, calcu lated to convey through the air as many as three thousand persons at a time. The whole machine is said to be of dimensions as vast as those of Notre Dame. He has rejected entirely the ancient system by which these ma chines have hitherto been guided. “The talent and eneigy of the whole human race combined have never been able to create,” says he. “ Mankind may com pile, may combine, and may apply ; but the Almighty is the sole creator of all things, the first navigator was taught his science by the fishes of the deep; why, then, have we neglected so long the lessons which the birds of the air have conveyed to us, from the beginning of the world ?” Guided by this principle, M. Patin has constructed the machine of his balloon in exact imi tation of the acting musclesofthe wings of birds. If it should succeed, what then becomes of war and conquest —of import duties and of export duties—of sanitary cordons and of “prohibitory clauses'?”— Paris Paper. Novel Application of Vulcanized Indian Rubber. —In an ingenious trea tise “ On the Physiology of the Horse’s loot,’ illustrated with drawings, Mr. W. G. 1 Jeeve shows the importance of | supporting the frog, and giving it a bearing from the ground ; and for this purpose he recommends, and applies, Vulcanized Indian-rubber, by which, he adds, “ the frog and navicula joint are shielded from the blows of stones and the injuries of sharp and pointed bodies; whilst the increased amount of friction-surface obtained by restoiing communication with the ground, ena bles the horse to maintain his hold, and save himself when in danger of slipping.” Preserving gathered Flowers.— For the benefit of our lady readers, w e copy from an Eastern paper the follow ing recipe for preserving the beauty of gathered Howers: Procure a flat dish of porcelain, into which pour water; place upon this a vase of flowers, and over the vase a bell glass, with its rim in the water. The air that surrounds the flowers being confined beneath that bell glass, is con stantly moist with water, that rises in to it in the form of vapor. As fast as the water becomes condensed it runs down the side of the bell glass into the dish ; and if means be taken to enclose the water on the outside of the bell glass, so as to prevent it evaporating into the air of the sitting room, the at mosphere around the flowers is contin ually damp. The plan is designated the “ Hopean Apparatus.” r l he exper iment may be tried on a small scale by inverting a tumbler over a rose bud in a saucer of water. Sub-Marine Telegraph. —lt is esti mated by an experienced, scientific civil engineer, that a sub-marine Telegraph can, without difficulty, be established between New’ York and Liverpool. He proposes to lay down a wire rope of twenty strands, coated with gutta percha, each strand being a distinct channel of communication, so that twenty machines could be in operation at once. He states that it would re quire eight miles of this wire to break of its own weight, so that there wmuld be no difficulty in reaching the deepest part of the ocean. The rope would be reeled off from steamers. The esti mated cost of w ire for such a Telegraph is set down at £875,000 for 3500 miles, the distance between New York and Liverpool, via Boston and Newfound land, with allowances; to which is add ed £425,000 for the service of two steamers in laying it, and the construc tion of station houses, landings, and telegraphic machines, making a total for the line in complete operation, of $1,300,000. By the time the Lactic Railroad is completed, w r c expect to see the Atlantic intersected by the Electric Telegraph. Cement for Attaching Metal to Glass or Porcelain, recommended by M. llerberger. —Take two ounces of a thick solution of glue, and mix with one ounce of linseed oil varnish, or three quarters of an ounce of Venice turpentine. Boil together, agitating until the mixture becomes as intimate as possible. The pieces cemented should be fastened together for the space of forty eight or sixty hours. SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. SI tCulunm it'rrrtrii tn ,lbtn. From the Comic Almanac for 1850. COCKNEY EPIGRAMS. No. I. — On the Letter H. I dwell in the Hearth, and I breathes in the Hair; If you searches ihe Hocean you’ll find that I'm there. The first of all Hangels in Holympus am Hi, Yet I’m banished from ’Eaven, expell’d from on ’lgh. But, tho’ on this Horb I’m destined to grovel I’m ne’er seen in an ’Ouse, in an ’Ut, nor mi ’Ovel; Not an ’Ose nor an ’Unter e’er bears me, alas ! But often I’m found on the top of a Hass. I resides in a Hattie, and loves not to roam, And yet I’m invaiiably Habsent from ’Ome. Tho’ ’ushed in ihe ’Urricane, of the Hatmos phere part, I enters no ’Ed, I creeps into no ’Art. Only look, and you’ll see in the Heye I appear, Only hark, and you’ll ’Ear me just breathe in the Hear; Though in sex not an ‘Ee, 1 am (strange para dox !( Not a hit of an ’Effer, but partly a Hox. Os Heterniiy Hi’m the beginning ! And hark, Though I goes not with Noar, I'm the first in the Hark. I’m never in ’Hlth—have with Fysic no power; I dies in a month, but tomes hack in a Hour. No. ll.— On the Letter W. The Vide Vorld you may search and my fellow not find ; I dwells in a Wacuum, deficient in Vind ; In ihe Wisage I’m seen—in the Woice I’m heard, And yet I’m inwisible—gives Went to the Vurc, I’m not much of a Vag, for I’m Vanting in Vil; but distinguish’d in Werse for the Wellums I’ve writ. I’m the head of all Willains, yet far from the Vurst— I’m the foremost in Wice, though in Wirtue the first, I’m used not to Veapons, nor ne’er goes to Vor; Tho’ in Walor invincible—in Wictory sure. The first of all Wiands and Wictuals ism.ne— Rich in Wen’zon and Weal, but deficient in Vine. To Wanity given, 1 in Welwets abound ; But in Voman, in Vrfe, and in Vidow a’nt found; Yet conspicuous in Wirgins! And I’ll tell you, between us, To persons of taste I’m a bit of a Wenus ; Yet not take me for Veal—or for Voe in its stead, For I ranks not amongst the s-veet, Voo’d, Vun and Ved. Odd Signs.— ln the Ninth avenue there lives a man who has put upon his sign, 1 Hater. Let him hate her —who cares ? but why “ keep it be fore the people 1” Speaking of signs, there tire some queer ones about the diggins. In thirty-fifth street, near the Seventh avenue, one reads : Tar for Sale, Hear. And not far from opposite, Milk and Butter Depot, AND CHAPE grocery’s. Then, in the Seventh avenue, there is this terrible “warning to young men,” painted in staring capitals over two sep arate entrances to a woodshed : Beware of a Werky Savidge Dog. These are poor indications of intelli gence and education. Ihey are bad signs.—New York Paper. On a “Bust.”— “What a censorious liar! exclaimed old Mrs. Partington, as she read in a certain newspaper an account of anew counterfeit which was said to contain three women and a bust of Washington on each end. “What,” said she, “General Washington on a ‘bust;’ ’tis not so,” and the old lady lifted her specks and declared site had known the old gentleman for the last thirty years, and she never heard of his being on a bust—much less with three women. A CALIFORNIA LETTER. “Mister Editor: Marridgeable fe males is remarkable seace on the Sa rah Nevady, but the fellers bein’ con tinually at w ork with their cradles, lias no time to think of the pettycots. Gold is very plenty, and is the occashun of much gilt, the fortynit miners bein’ shot and rifled. lam diggin’, myself in the bed ot Feather river, which is as full of gold as a quilt of cotton. Socie ty is mixed, ihe Sandwiches has mus teied strong, and so has the Polly Nesh uns. Also the Chinese is beginnin’ to come in ; but the boys don't like their long tails, nor the way their eyes is sot in their heads. They’re a proud, lazy, sheepish looking set, and unless they mind their peas and queus they'll get a lammin’. Why can’t they use to bacco and work tor their betters and wushup God like Christians, instead of chaw in’ their infarnal opium andloatin’ and wushupin idles? There’s quite a number here, too from the Society Islands. Nice socie ty they have there, l guess. There isn’t a petty-cot nor a pair o’ breeches in the hull crowd, and they’re all iled up as if they was afraid o’ rustin’.— &>oap-fat and stale goose-grease is a pa. fume to the snits one gits on the lee ward side o’ one on ’em. Then there’s Irish and Scotch and John Bulls and niggers and yaller bel lies —so, as stated aforesaid, the socie ty is a mixture and no mistake. The nateral featers of the sile is sand and rocks. In the sand the gold is gener ally sought for near the current, and in the rocks we look for it in vein. There is one kind of deposit they call a pock et. The pocket is generally found in ihe natural breeches of the mountain and can only be dug into w ith a pick. Ihe miners who work these deposits are known as the pickpocket gangs. In the sand the preshus mettle is found in grains and gobs. Some say that the gobs is not the real stuff, and that no oody can tell what’s what until the es sayer has crucified it; others say that proosie acid will tell the story. Not bein’ a kiunnist or an essayist, 1 cannot decide. The principle quadrupeds is prairie dogs, turkey buzzards and centipedes. The climate is pretty healthy in the mountains, but we suffer with agur in the wilderness. Gold is procured in various ways. Some specylaters has done well by hiring gangs of Indians to dig, and shootin”em as soon as they’re got enough to make it worth w hile.— I've got a purty smart chance that way, and intend to boat it down the Saery mento to San Francisco, where you can always find a sale for your oar. Frigging and murder is punished with death when any ofthe boys is suf fers, but we don’t take no complaint from furriners, Mexicans and Injuns. — A grape-vine halter and a maple limb is the usual method of exekushun. The turky-buzzard, which is a bird of won derful instink, and is parshall to cold vittals, sits on the adjining trees untill the vitle spark has fled, w hen they come in a body round the corpse, and car ry off’ the carrion with theirgreat talent i. Funerals is done up quite rough here. When it digger dies, his mate takes his close (w hich is generally siled,)his pick and shovel and his gold, and then holes him. A few of the deceased leaves wills behind ern, but they mostly die detested. — Boston Post. ?1 ißoblrt us jritml]. A BLACK KALNBUW. Among the newspaper wonders, upon which the petmy-a-imers sometimes ameliorate their condition by obtaining an extia meal, we have lately noticed a fivepenny phenomenon—just four lines and a ha.f in length—under the title of a black rainbow. This remark able triumph of nature over the ordina ry rules of meteorology lias been seen by an American newspaper’s “own correspondent,” who has probably not been particular to a shade in the view he hits taken of the marvel he has par agraphed. We suspect the rainbow is not so black as it has been painted, though we confess that we have observ ed in our own political atmosphere an appearance almost equally discour aging, namely, that of the rainbow ot taxation which spreads entirely across the sky from one horizon to the other. r lhe affair looks rather black, but w e are not without hope that the prospect w ill soon brighten. —♦ ■ Parliamentary Natural Philoso phy.—Condensation of \ apour takes place when the newspapers epitomise Mr. Disraeli’s speeches. Evaporation occurs (among Honour able Members) whenever Mr. Chisholm Anstey rises to speak. Evolution of Heat is invariably oc casioned when anybody comes into col lision with Lord Brougham. Street Luxury. —We have had pine-apples hawked about in wheelbar rows —we have seen gojfres sold at the corners ofthe streets like hot potatoes —and last Sunday we witnessed in 11 ungerford Market the epicurean sight of ices being sold at a penny a-piece ! We know that habits of luxuriousness led to the downfall of Rome, and when we reflect that the ice, which generally fetched a shilling, and never brings in less than sixpence, is being sold for the price of a common bun, we cannot help trembling—it may be weakness, but we cannot help it—for the safety of the British Empire. The Earth hath Bubbles. —There are reports that gold is, after ail, not so plentiful as it was expected to be at California. The diggers are turning crusty at the precious metal forming merely a crust over the soil, and ill-na tured remarks arc being made upon Nature, for having condescended to use the electrotype process, instead of ma king the ground one solid mass of the precious metals. We hear that hospi tality abounds in California, and that, whenever a stranger presents himself, the host, putting a pick-axe into his vis itor’s hand, requests him to sit down and pick a bit. King Alfred Going, Going—Gone! We felt mentally knocked down by tm auctioneer’s hammer, on reading in the Hampshire Independent the announce ment following:— “The tomb and the remains of Al lred the Great are to be offered for sale by Auction on Thursday next, by or der of tiie county magistrates. We wish the immortality whichthis notice w ill confer on the magistrates of Hampshire were such as the} might have earned by erecting a fitting mon ument over Alfred’s dust. A hand some piece of architecture, forming a second Winchester College—a College for the County, in which there is not too much learning—would have been an appropriate testimonial to the mem ory of the great patron of education.— It may be well, however, that Alfred’s burial-place lias passed from the pos session ofthe Hampshire magistracy. Perhaps it is now in better keeping.— Our Southampton contemporary adds : “We should have thought that the lowest depth of degradation had been reached w hen the site of the splendid Abbey where his remains were depos ited was covered with the buildings of a bridewell.” Fancy the treadmill revolving and the rogues’ hornpipe danced over Al fred’s grave ! Had the truly w ooden Bench, the authors of this desecration, lived in later days, they would per haps have dug the hero’s bones up, and sent them to Andover to be crushed. For the future w e hope that the people of Winchester w ill be enabled without blushing to point out to the stranger the spot where Alfred lies. The WOrld’s “ Multum in Parvo.” We are told that a company is on loot for the purpose of buying up Lord Brougham, ihe object ofthe purchase is to send in the honourable lord at the forthcoming Exhibition of 1851. With his lordship the company feels sure of winning the great prize, as there is scarcely a thing that he does not know something of; and if they can only keep him from talking, they feel per suaded they can palm him off as the most wonder ful specimen of British in dustry. We are sorely afraid, howev er, that the company, let it have the wealth of California added even to that of Monte-Christo, must be ruined, if it is compelled to take Lord Brougham at his own valuation. A Hint for the Publishers. —As the publishing season will soon be in full play —which means that there w ill be plenty of work—we suggest the following as titles of books, to succeed the publication of “People lhave Met,” by an American: — “ People I have Taken into Custody,” by a Policeman. “People that have Met me Half way,” by an Insolvent. “ People I have splashed,” by u Scav enger. “ People 1 have Done,” by a Jew Bill Discounter. “ People 1 have Abused,” by a ’Bus Conductor. “ People 1 have Run Over,” by a Butcher s Boy. “ People 1 have Run Against,” by a Sweep. Garibaldi’s favourite aide-de camp, a Moor of enormous stature, was, the papers teli us, killed during the last attack on the city of Rome, ihen he is no Moor now, poor fellow ! llrniiings ot llntttium.

They receive their name from the ladies appearing in calico dresses.

The Albany Patriot says : “ One of our Methodist clergyman last Sunday, remarked that if all the world believed the second coming was to take place on the 23d of March, 1851, at 3 o’clock, P.
