“come tiiou to me.
RY MRS. CORN WELL-BARON WILSON.
Come thou to me ! for .he sun is setting,
And the pale stars peep from their azure
screen ;
Light dews the violet’s leaves are wetting
And pearly drops on the grass are seen !
Night’s veil is tailing o’er land and sea—
Come thou to me! come thou to me .
Come thou to me! Daylight is fading,
And the young birds have iolded their weary
wines; , _
The vapours of twilight the mountains are
shading, . ,
And silver mists rise from the cold fountain s
springs!
Night’s robe is closing o’er land and sea—
Come thou to me! come thou to me !
Come thou to me !—for the bees are reposing,
Who’ve hum’d ’mid the thyme-bank the long
sunny day ;
The butterfly’s wings on the rose leaves aie
closing,
The ants from their hillock are up and away!
Night’s veil is falling o’er land and sea—
Come thou to me ! come thou to me !
Come thou to me ! the ring-dove is mourning,
Like the sigh of some lover amid the pine
trees,
Who waits with impatience the dear one’s re
turning,
And murmurs his griefs to the stars and the
breeze!
Night’s curtains close o'er land and sea—
Come thou to me! come thou to me !
THE SPRING.
From the German.
In the early morn,
Singing, smiling, pail m hand,
To .he Spring I went.
For water? No!
Huntsman Fritz went down the path
Leading to the Mary-spring—
“l go for water, Mother!”
Huntsman Fritz is there,
Leaning gravely on his gun.
“Ah, Fritz! thou here?”
(Wondering eyes!)
“Curious that we thus should meet ;
Seldom come I to the Spring
So early in the morning!
Fritz knows well the girls:
Winking, smiling, he replied,
“Oh, I know it all!
Behind a tree
I hid myself before thou cam’st;
Saw thee looking round for me—
Oh, the cunning Meta !”
Then there was a kiss,
Talking, laughing, there we stood,
Happy as the birds.
“Fritz, I must go ;
The mother for her breakfast waits ”
Another kiss. “Till next sunrise
Farewell, my little darling!”
Then home I went,
Singing, smiling, pail in hand,
Thinking of my Fritz.
“How slow thou art?
1 could have gone in half the time.—
Give me the puil, thou lazy thing,
Why, it is empty, daughter!”
How the Mother raged,
Scolding, frowning, full of wrath!
Trembling there I stood,
Beside the pail,
“Wicked girl! take care, take care—
I must watch thee day and night.”
But Fritz I’ll see to-morrow !

A LEGEND OF MEXICO.
Fernando Cortes and his handful of
adventurers were on their march toward
the imperial city of Montezuma. Night
overtook them as they emerged from a i
deep ravine among the mountains, into
an open plain watered by a small rivu
let, Reside the stream they halted and
pitched their tents ; and having parta
ken of a slight refreshment, the whole
troop threw themselves upon theground
in the attitude of attention, while Don
na Ma rina,the beautiful Indian interpre
tress, related to them a legend of her
native country.
“ 1 have already told you,” she be
gan, “that the city of Tezcuco was once
the capital of this empire. Nezahual
coyotl there held his court, which was
more magnificent than that of any pre
ceding monarch. Rut at the time in
which my story begins, his long and
glorious reign was drawing to a close
He had been, successively, a warrior,
a statesman, a poet, and a philosopher,
and so humane and munificent a prince,
■hat his subjects might easily have been
persuaded to pay him divine honours, j
Vll the nations of Anahuac rejoiced un
der the shadow of his arm, and though
lie had fought his way to the throne, he
needed now no warlike weapon to de
tend it. Rut Nezahualcoyotl was old,
a id he desired to see his son united in
marriage to the Princess Torquosa,
and firmly established as his sueces
or, before his departure to the land of
shades.
“ -Prince Xezahualpilli, was majestic
in person, grave in manners, and pos
sessed of a comprehensive and philo
sophic mind. He had made great pro
ficiency in mathematics, astrology, and
he science of war, while his royal fa
her himself had instructed him in the
rites of religion, charging him to wor
hip alone the invisible God and his
ministers, the sun, moon, and stars. —
fhis prince possessed, also, in his youth,
ocial and more gentle virtues. He
cas just, but generous, and though a
orave warrior like his father, like him
ne was also humane and merciful, lie
was more fond of retirement than a
ourt, and preferred study to the din of
arms; yet, in times of necessity or dan
ger, no prince was ever wiser in council
<r more brave in battle.
“ Such was Nezahualpilli, the heir to
he throne ofTczcueo, and the destined
husband of the beautiful and beloved
Corquosa.
“ Descended from that illustrious but
uenign race who brought to Anahuac
ust laws and purer faith, the Princess
Torquosa inherited their benignity of
manners, their loftiness and equanimity
of mind. Wherever she appeared she
vas regarded as a superior being. The
people prostrated themselves before
ler palanquin with as much reverence
is befere that of the emperor. She was
•ailed by the minstrels,‘theToltec maid
‘in,’ ‘the bird of the valley,’ and ‘ the
sweet singing bird of the royal eagle’s
nest. Her dark, sad eyes, her raven
tresses, her pearly teeth, and brilliant
smile, are still commemorated in our
songs; and still on the lake of Tezcuco,
■n a clear evening, a solitary boatman
wdl sometimes pass you, singing some
strain ot an ancient melody to ‘the Tol
tec maiden’s charms.
In the imperial palace a long suite
of apartments were appointed to the
rincess 1 orquosa. They overlooked
one ot the great courts and royal gar
dens, and were furnished with rare taste
and magnificence. Bright flowers or
gay landscapes were wrought in nee
dlework upon the carpets, while the
ceilings were of finest wood, and carved
by the most skilful artisans in the em
pire. IS he sat or reclined upon luxuri
ous cushions ; her food was served to
her in vessels of delicate porcelain or
gold, studded with gems, and fair maid
ens of noble birth surrounded and at
tended her, walked barefoot in her pre
sence, and wearing over their rich gar
ments the coarse robe of vassalage. Jhe
princess herself was clothed in tine cot
ton, ornamented with the emerald and
torquoise. She wore also, when she
left the palace, a mantle of gorgeous
feather-work, while ever her long, black
tresses and high, pale forehead waved
the white and graceful plume of the
ostrich.
“ It was her custom to walk often, at
evening, upon the roof of the palace,
accompanied by her maidens. The
prospect from thence was singularly
beautiful. On the one side lay the city
of Tezcuco, then the first in the em
pire; on the other, the sparkling wa
ters of the lake, so gay with its light
boats and floating gardens; while far
down in the distance appeared the fairy
island of the Lord of Estapalapan, and
right opposite the palaces, the teocal
lis and busy streets of the ancient city
of Mexico.
“ Rut 1 must hasten to my tale, for
the evening wanes.
“ The time had been appointed for
the marriage of the prince and princess.
Active preparations had been made
throughout the empire, and on the fol
lowing day that event was to take place
which had been so long anticipated.—
The palace was a scene of festivity and
joy. The fragrance of flowers filled all
the apartments ; cooling fountains were
playing in the courts and gardens ; the
countenance of the old emperor beam
ed with smiles; and the usually grave
and thoughtful expression of the prince
ly bridegroom had given place to one
of open gladness. The sweet bride had
sat all day in her own apartments, sur
rounded by her maidens; sometimes
sitting in pensive silence, the lights and
shadows passing by turn over her love
ly face, and sometimes singing snatches
of sweet songs, with a voice so full of
melody’ that they’ seemed to overflow
from her very heart. So the da}’ at
length passed on, and twilight was deep
ening into night, when the prince sought
Torquosa, and they ascended together
the palace roof. It was such an even
ing as this. The moon shone brightly
over the stately city and the clear wa
ters, while the royal lovers walked to
gether and talked of the glowing future,
with as much happiness as if their lot
had not been so high.
“ The large, bold eyes of the prince,
that flashed so terrible upon his ene
mies, were now softened into love ; and
the voice so high and loud, that it was
heard throughout his hosts in the midst
of battle, was now as low and sweet as
the music of the Castilian lute. And
well might he thus look and speak,
when he gazed upon those features, so
full of trusting affection and radiant
hope. The cheek of the princess seem
ed to glow with a brighter and richer
bloom than ever before, and an un
wonted light and beauty sparkled in her
clear eyes.
“ ‘They tell me,’ she said, ‘that this
world is one of sorrow; but 1 have
never found it so. My path has ever
been like that of yonder moon through
the serene heavens ; no cloud has cross
ed it; and such the astrologers tell me
it shall he to the end. I believe them,
and rejoice for thy sake. Yes, my be
loved, thy path and mine are the same,
and while 1 live it shall never be dark
ened.’
“ ‘Ah! truly,’ replied the enraptured
prince, forgetting his philosophy, ‘it
shall be as thou hast said ; while thou
livest 1 shall never know darkness, for
thou shalt be to me a perpetual light.’
“ While the prince and princess were
thus conversing, they did not observe
a female figure, which crouched at a lit
tle distance from them, and listened
breathlessly to their words. It was the
figure of an Aztec slave, who had been
taken captive by the prince in war, and
presented to his destined bride.
“ When they turned to descend into
the palace she was gone. She had en
tered their presence unperceived, and
unperceived departed. The prince ac
companied Torquosa to her apartments,
where they separated with a cheerful
‘good night.’
“ The princess was immediately sur
rounded by her attendants, who assist
ed to disrobe her, and she lay’ down
upon her couch with a light and happy
heai t.
“She had sunk into a soft and pleas
ant slumber, and her maidens also were
wrapped in profound repose, when a
light and stealthy tread might have been
heard in her chamber, and the form of
the Aztec slave bent over her. With
a malignant and envious gaze the
wretched menial bent her eye upon
that innocent, unconscious face. Tor
quosa’s long, dark tresses fell like a
cloud over her delicate bosom, one
glowing cheek rested on a slender trails
parent hand, a smile still lingered on
her lips, and over all, like a glow of
sunlight, was shed that lofty and serene
expression which marked her Toltec
origin.
“ ‘Beautiful and happy,’ exclaimed
the Aztec, ‘ beautiful and happy, royal
and beloved, thou shalt not live. The
prince 1 adore is thy lover—thy hus
band to-morrow. To-morrow ! —where
wilt thou be to-morrow? No! his
path shall no longer be illuminated by
thee ! So, ‘ the astrologers have fore
told that thy life shall be always hap
py,’ but thou canst die ! Ay, die in
thy youth, thy bloom, and by the hand
of an alien and a slave. lie thought
not of that last night—he thought not
when he scorned my love that 1 could
dream of vengeance. But soft—she
may awake. 1 must be quick, or ‘ the
bird,’ ‘the singing bird,’ will escape me
yet. Now, hated Toltec, thy time has
come!’
“So saying, the fierce Aztec drew
from her robe the fatal weapon. It
flashed a moment in the moonlight
which streamed like a guardian over
the sleeping maiden, and was then bu
ried in her bosom. She uttered no
groan, for the knife found a direct pas
sage to her heart.
“So passed the sweet Princess Tor
quosa to the laud of shadows. The as
trologers were right—she died before
her noon, but lived without a sorrow.
“ With a smile of savage exultation,
the slave drew the bloody weapon from
the bosom of the princess, and hastily
left the apartment.
“The morning dawned with more
than usual glory. The valley of Mex
i ico was all spread out in the sunlight,

glowing with beauty, and full of anima
tion and joyousness.
“ The population of the whole em
pire were abroad at early dawn, anx
ious to celebrate, with snitable festivi
ties, the marriage of their renowned
prince. They might be seen in gay
groups in the markets, public roads,and
gardens, on the roofs of the houses, and
on the boats and islands of the lake, in
their holiday dresses, adorned with
flowers, and carrying large nosegays of
fragrant honeysuckles and roses. Ban
ners waved, music played, and the
priests in long procession wound slowly
up the sides of the teocallis,with waving
censers and choicest offerings, seeking
to propitiate the gods.
“The young prince, with a light
heart, leaped from his couch, and having
been magnificently attired, sought the
apartments of his bride, followed by a
crowd of attendant nobles.
“ Alas ! alas ! tradition tells us that,
after the sight he saw there, Prince
Nezahualpilli was a changed man. He
became stern even to severity, and was
never known to smile, lie lived to be
firmly established on the throne of his
father, and then to see his empire pass
into other hands. Rut the changes in

his fortune affected him but little since
the dark and sudden night which had
fallen upon his youth.
“ lie died at last in obscurity. Some
say that the Aztec slave followed him
through life like an evil spirit, and at
last, in his age and decrepitude, des
troyed him with the same weapon
which had drunk up the life-blood of
the Princess Torquosa,in her youthand
bloom. But be that as it may, you
may still see, in a moonlight evening,
two stately forms hovering over the
palace roof of the Lord of Tezcuco, the
one resembling a warrior prince, the
other a beauteous maiden apparalledas
a bride.”
As Donna Marina finished her tale,
the Spanish general took up his guitar
and played a soft Castilian air. The
bold cavaliers around him were sub
dued by the plaintive strainand the sad
legend, and their thoughts wandered
alternately from the barbaric splen
dours of the New World to their native
country —from “ the Toltec maiden” and
her royal lover, to the homes and faces
so far away.

Sympathies of Sounds. —lt is owing
to the sympathetic communication of
vibrations that persons with clear and
powerful voices have been able to break
a large tumbler glass by singing close
to its proper fundamental note. We
have heard of a case where a person
broke no fewer than twelve large glass
es in succession. The sympathy of vi
brations, or tendency of one vibrating
body to throw another into the very
same state of vibration, shows itself re
markably in the case of the going of
two clocks fixed to the same shelf or
wall. It was known near a century ago
that two clocks sot going on the same
shelf will affect each other. The pen
dulum of the clock which is stopped,
after a certain time, will resume its vi
brations, and in its turn stop that of the
other clock. Mr. John Elliot, who first
observed these effects, noticed that two
clocks, which varied from each other
ninety-six seconds a day, agreed to a
second for several days when they were
placed on the same rail. The slowest
of these two clocks, which had a slower
pendulum, set the other in motion in
sixteen minutes and a half, and stopped
itself in thirty-six minutes and a half.
These effects are clearly produced by
the small vibrations communicated from
the one pendulum to the other through
the shelf, or rail, or plank, on which
they both rest. It has been found that
two conflicting sounds produce silence,
as two converging rays of light produce
darkness. — Herschel.
A Tall Chimney. —The New Eng
land Glass Company have commenced
laying the foundation for a tall chim
ney, which they are about to to build
for their glass works in Cambridge,
Mass. It is to be about 30 feet square
at the base,and carried up to the height
of 240 feet, 20 feet higher than the
Bunker Hill Monument! Flues under
ground are to connect their various fur
naces with this chimney, thus making it
do all the smoking (?) for their im
mense establishment.
Coffee for Weak Stomachs. —A
correspondent sends the following, be
ing the result of experience:—Those
who are not able to bear much liquid
should adopt the following method:
Place a quarter of a pound of ground
coffee in a jug, pour a pint of cold spring
water theron, and let it stand twenty
four hours; then strain off the clear ex
tract, which preserve in a well-corked
bottle. When y r ou wish for a cup of
coffee, boil half-a-pint of milk, to which
add a table-spoonful of the cold extract.
It will have the same effect as three
cups made in the ordinary way, and
possess a delightful flavour.
Volcanoes. —Vesuvius, the Neapol
itan volcano, is yet in its infancy ; it
only counts thirty centuries of erup
tions. The giant Etna, which has more
than four times its elevation, wasted all
its destructive force before the historic
times of Sicily and of all Europe. This
colossal volcano is now declining in its
old age, but the time which will elapse
until its total extinction, may be as
long as the whole of its past existence.
One may judge from this fact of the
prodigious antiquity of those volcanoes,
which formerly burned in France, of
which the fires had ceased a long time
before the first eruption of Vesuvius.
At the period of the entry of the Ro
mans among the Gauls they found the
lava decomposed and converted into
productive soil, covered with dense for
ests. — Two Worlds.
Suggestions for Safety in Thun
der-storms. —Sedulously avoid all con
ductors of electricity. Do not shelter
under trees nor go near them ; the great
majority of accidents arise from want
of this precaution. Do not handle or
be very close to metallic bodies : a ser
vant cleaning a silver fork at a window,
during a thunder-storm, the prongs be
ing outwards, was struck, but not kill
ed ; a young lady during the same
storm, sewing near a window, was
thrown from her seat and experienced
a glow. The centre of a room, if a me
tallic lustre is not pendant,is safer than
any other part of the apartment. It is
not safe to be betweeu the window and
door, or fireplace, where there is a cur
rent of air. A bed is the securest re
treat; so all ye who fear, and fail to de
rive pleasure, mingled with awe, in be
holding this, the grandest of nature’s
meteors, ensconce yourselves within
the wollen folds, and, sunk in your
downy couch, if ye cannot fall into a
gentle slumber, think at least that you
enjoy comparative safety. —Dr Thom

The Stubbounest Animal in the
World. —A crowd lounging about a

animal, of all others, was the most con

A Good Hit. —Dr. Pease, Dean of
Ely, was once at a dinner, when just as
the cloth was removed, the subject of
discourse happened to be that of extra
ordinary mortality among lawyers.—
“ We have lost,’ said a gentleman, “not
less than six eminent barristers in as
many months.” The dean, who was
quite deaf, rose as his friend finished
his remarks, and gave the company
grace —“ For this and every other mer
cy, make us truly thankful.”
A Curious Wish. —“ I wish I was
a ghost, blamed if I don’t,” said a poor
covey the other night, as he sat solilo
quising in the cold.
’ “ They goes wherever they pleases,
toll free ! they don’t owe nobody no
thing and that’s a comfort. Who ever
heern tell of a man what had a hill
against a ghost ?”
“ Nobody.”
“ They never has to buy hats and vit
tals and liquor, nor has to saw wood
and rim arrants as 1 do. Their shirts
never gets dirty, nor their trowsers out
at the knees, as I ever heerd tell on. —
Ghosts is the only independent people

Too Chfap. —“ Three-and-sixpence
per gal!” exclaimed Mrs. Partington,
on looking over the Price Current. —
“ Why, bless me, what is the world
coming to, when the gals are valued at
only three-and-sixpence!” The old la
dy pulled offher spectacles, threw down
the paper, and went into a brown study
on the want of a proper appreciation
of the true value of the feminine gender.

JOSEPH GILLOTT’S STEEL PENS.
MANUFACTURER’S WAREHOUSE,
91 JOHN-STREET, NEW Y'ORK.
A LARGE stock of these well known PENS constantly
on hand, tor sale as above.
CAUTION. —Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC
TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil
i.ott’s style or Label, his mode of putting up his
Pens, and also Designating Numbers, he desires to
give the following
NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.
That all genuine packages or boxes of Joseph Gil
lott’s Pens have a sac simile of his signature on the
reverse side. None other are genuine. This caution espe
cially refers to his original No. 303, the great popularity of
which has caused it to be imitated, and the number adopt
ed by a host of pretended makers.
Joseph Gillott would further advise the public that,
in all eases where his N umbers and the phraseology of his
Labels are adopted by the parties above alluded to, the
Pens are not made by him, although asserted to be.
An experience of thirty years lias enabled Mr. Gillott to
bring his Steel Pens to the highest state of perfec
tion, and the liberal patronage which he has long enjoyed
at the hands of tlieAmeriean public,will incite him to con
tinued exertion to maintain the favor which he has ac
quired. HENRY OWEN, Agent.
