She perished in the spring, When earl.e.t flowere began to bud, And earliest birds to smg; I laid her in a country grave, A rural, soft retreat, A marble tablet o’er her head, And violets at her leet. I would that she was back again, In all her child L-h bloom, My joy and hope have followed her. My heart is in her tomb. I know that she is gone away, 1 know that she is lied, I miss her every where, and yet ] cannot make her dead. 1 wake the children up at dawn, And say a simple prayer, And draw them round the morning meal, But one is missing there! I see a little chair apart, A little pinafore, And Memory hlls the vacancy, As Time will—nevermore. 1 sit. within my room, and wiite The lone and weary hours, And mi-s the little maid again Among the window flowers, And miss her with her toys beside My de.-k in silent play ; And then 1 turn to look tor her, But she has flown away! I drop my idle pen and hark, And catch ihe faintest sound, She must be playing hide-and-seek In shady nooks around; She’ll come and climb my chair again, And peep my shoulder o’er ; I heard a stifled laugh—but no, She eonieth nevermore. I waited only yester-mght, The evening service read, And lingered for my idol’s kiss Before she went to bed; Forgetting she had gone belore, In slumoerssoft and sweet, A monument above her head, And violets at her feet!

Flitors: Agreeably to ray promise, I have the pleasure” to hand you the following communication, be ing a brief examination of the compar ative merits of the two principal mate rials used in the construction of “Sus pension Bridges,” viz: Iron and Wood. Iron bridges are exclusively the in vention ot English artists. It is not generally known that the use of this material for purposes of bridge build ing is of so recent origin. The first Suspension Bridge was built in 1741, over the fees, for the use of the miners. Its length was 70 feet, and the lowest point ot the curve was 0 feet above the river. Ihe supporters were chains,and 1; is described as having a “ fearful vibratory motion.” It was not till within the present century, however, that Iron was used to any considerable extent in the csnstruction of bridges. Its extensive use at the present time, is the result ot a series of elaborate and costly experiments, made by .Mr. Tel ford, the distinguished English engineer. Mr. 1. commenced his experiments by proving what force would pull asunder lengthwise pieces of iron, from 1 1-2 inches to 1-20 of an inch in diameter. Tne experiments were made upon those of the largest diameters by means of an excellent hydrostatic machine, and on those ot the smaller by attaching weights perpendicularly, and repeating them at various times. lie then made various experiments upon different diameters from 1-10 to 1-20 ot an inch, drawn horizontally, and with different degrees of curvature. This was performed between points 900, 225, 140 and 139 feet 0 inches apart, and was repeated 200 times. Ihe result of the experiments was. that a bar of good malleable charcoal iron, one inch square, will suspend 27 tons; and that an iron wire, 1-10 of an inch in diameter, 200 feet in length, will suspend 700 pounds; and that the latter, with a curvature or versed sine of 1-50 part of the chord line, will support 1-10 of the weight suspended perpendi cularly, when disposed equally 1-4,1-2, and 3-4 its length. With a curvature ot 1-20 ot the chord, it will bear 1-3 ot the aforesaid perpendicular weight, when disposed in a similar wav. A bar of good English malleable iron, 1 inch square, will suspend 27 tons before it breaks, and will bear from 15 to 10 tons before its length is at all extended. ith a curvature of 1-20 of the length, malleable iron, besides its own weight, sustained 1-3 of what broke it perpendicularly. An inch bar would, therefore, bear 1-3 of 15 tons, without (hanging its parts; “but (says the \v liter) it is better in practice to assume t at an inch square in section should o.ily bear 4 tons.” ihe object in giving so minutely the manner ot making, and results, of these experiments (declared by the writer to be “important, and the “occasionof the introduction ot this material in con struction,”) is, to show what it is that in the construction of all wire Suspen sion bridges, a curvature or versed sine, of at least l-20th part ot its chord line, is always given to the supporter. It is because that any near approxima tion to a horizontal line greatly lessens its strength. Now, then, this fact renders it neces sary to use flexible supporters, either chains or small wires combined; it is also necessary to have towers or piers at each corner of the bridge over which the supporter is to be drawn, in order that the lowest point of the curve shall be above the water. From these sup porters, wires depend, and to these wires the timbers of the floor of the bridge are made fast. Now, from the very nature of the whole structure, there is, and must always be. a very great undulating and oscillating motion, and this is a well known fact in regard to all the wire Suspension bridges ever erected. Mr. Telford’s celebrated bridge over Menia Straits, had a span of 5?9 feet; its versed sine is 43 feet; the towers over which the supporters are drawn are 152 feet above the water level. This bridge, it will be remembered, was sadly injured by a gale of wind shortly after its completion. The Fribourg Bridge, constructed by M. Chaley, (a French engineer,) in 1832, lias a span of 870 feet; versed sine, 03 feet. To an American citizen belongs the honour of discovering that wood may be used in the construction of Suspen sion Bridges. In 1847, Mr. Remington erected his lirst Bridge for practical purposes, over the river Trent, in England. It is thus described in the Staffordshire Adver tiser: “We have lately described some of the wonderful bridges which a recent trip into North Wales had given us an opportunity of inspecting, including the tubular bridge over the Conway, and the Britannia tubular bridge now in course of erection, and designed to carry the Holyhead Kailway over the Menia Straits. We have much satis faction, this week, in bringing under the notice of our readers a work, in our own immediate neighborhood, which, though of much smaller dimensions, is as great a curiosity in its way, and per haps as vast a triumph of scientific in genuity and engineering skill as the gigantic structures to which we have alluded. We refer to a wooden bridge which has just been completed over the river Trent, near Ingestre, on an accommodation road of Earl Talbot’s, leading from Ingestre to Shirleywich. The architect is Mr. J. R. Remington, a gentleman from Alabama, in the United States of America, of several of whose inventions we have before had occasion to speak. “This bridge is remarkable for the length of its span, about 150 feet, and for the diminutive dimensions of the timber used in its construction. It will almost appear incredible to our readers when we state that the six stringers, or beams, which support the planks form ing the floor of the bridge are but five inches square at each end, and gradu ally diminishin size until at the centre they are only two and a half inches, their length being, as already intimated, 150 feet. The stringers are formed of pieces of oak timber, each about 20 or 25 feet long, attached together by the method technically known as “scarfing.” The abutments consist of oak posts, six inches square, and 15 feet long, sunk 5 feet in the ground, projecting outward at a considerable angle, and firmly clamped together with iron. “ idle main advantage of this de scription of bridge is its cheapness. The cost of the structure which we are de scribing is only about £2OO ; whereas a bridge to accomplish the same pur pose built on any other plan, would have required an expenditure of many thousand pounds. Another advantage is that such a bridge can be erected in situations where other wooden bridges would be impracticable. A third ad vantage is, that the span may, as we are informed, be extended ten times as far as an)’ wooden bridge ever yet con structed ; and it may be added, that the inventor is of opinion that such bridges will be more durable than those of any other make. “ When we state, in conclusion, that such has been the expedition used in the erection of the bridge that six weeks ago the timber of which it is constructed was growing, we think we have proved that ‘Novelty in Bridge Building’ was not an inappropriate title to the present article.” Although Air. Remington’s Bridge may be called a “ Suspension Bridge,” it is but proper to remark, that it has but one principle in common with wire bridges—it is fastened on either side of the river, only. Its versed sine or curvature is so slight, (about 1-100 of its chord,) that the floor of the bridge is made on the top of the supporters. Its power is so great, (being the entire longitudinal strength of the timbers used for supporters,) that it is made steady by weight placed upon it. Al tho’ the simple, unexplained statement of the fact, that we may so shape and fasten timber in a horizontal position as to obtain its entire longitudinal strength, seems preposterous, yet it is now too late to douubt it, —it is de monstrated, and may be seen at any time. The first most important advantage of the Remington Bridge over wire bridges, is the extraordinary cheapness of its first cost. A Remington Bridge may be built, of bOO feet span, for less than the cost of one of the four towers necessary in the erection of a wire bridge of a similar span. Second , each inch in section of the wooden sup porter has as much power with its slight curve as an inch of iron in section with its great curve. The tensile capacity of yellow pine is proven in a horizon tal position to be 5 tons to the inch, and 4 tons only in iron is assumed to be useful “in practice” by English en gineers. Third , it is safer than a wire bridge, not being affected by the winds. Fourth , it may be used for Railroads, and wire bridges cannot, in the matter of durability, alone, wire bridges have the advantage. I have endeavored, as briefly as pos sible, to give an answer to the enquiry so frequently propounded, “why not use iron for stringers?” I will close with a quotation from Mr. Evvbank, our Present able Commissioner of Pa tents : “All inventions or discoveries in Science or Geography, should be view SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. ed in a large and liberal spirit. If of real utility, they are a part of the economy of the world; and their direct tendency is to unite communities and States, and to raise mankind a step in the scale of civilization.” Very respectfully, Your ob’t servant, J.

American Eagle, (meeting British Lion.) Good mornin to you, old feller. You ‘re a lookin spry. And so you ort. You feel proud of yourself, don t you? Oh! in course you du. The thought that we’ve bin a behavin brave, and noble, and ginnerus, is a pleasant one to chaw upon, ain’t it? Oh! you’re a magnanimous beast, you are, and have just bin showin yourself such— that's a fact. There’s none of the cur in your natur, is there ? Oh, no! Not the least mixtur in you of the coward and the bully British Lion. What the deuce do you mean? American Eagle. Oh, you’ve bin actin a fine part toward Greece, han’t you? —goin to war amostwith that air great and powerful nation, for little more but to recover a debt for that sorter British subject, sorter Portuguese, kinder Jew, Don Pacifico. British Lion. Come, none of your chaffing. The honour of England de mands that the smallest wrong, offered by whomsoever, to the humblest of Her Majesty’s subjects, shall be re dressed. American Eagle. Now, you cantin, braggin, untruthful old loafer, have you got the face to tell me that air? When 1 know, and you know, and know that 1 know, that let the worst injuries be done to any on ’em, by them as you think you can’t afford to quarrel'with, and you’ll pocket the affront like dol lars, and eat humble pie as fast as buffalo-hump. British Lion. You are speaking in joke, of course; but really I cannot allow you to continue the use of this language. It won’t do. American Eagle. J in joke? I never was more serious at a camp meetin, I tell you. You can’t allow me to talk so! 1 should like to know how you are to hinder me, you blusterin old quadruped. Won’t do? It will do, every word on it, and I’ll prove it, and make you swaller it, in spite of your teeth, as easy as I’d give me old mare a hoss-ball. British Lion. Well, well— l shan’t let you put me in a passion. American Eagle. No, I expect you won’t; or if you do, you’ll shut up your feelins in your own buzzum tight. 1 ou'll tie the valve down, you will, and keep your steam in, and 1 hope it won’t bust you. And now, as all your Queen’s subjects is to have their part took agin the world, how about that air nigger of yourn, as was hauled out of one of your merchant ships, only be cause he was a nigger, and for no other reason on airth, by our free and inde pendent citizens, and locked up in the common gaol whilst the vessel stopped in port, accordin to law in such case made and provided, at Charleston, South Carolina, U. S.? British Lion. Diplomatic negotia tions are now in contemplation, with a view to remove an anomaly which, I trust, will not continue to exist much longer in the relations between Great Britain and the American Republic. American Eagle. And if your di plomatic negotiations fail, you’ll send Admiral Parker and a fleet to blockade New York, won’t you? You’ll seize all the craft you can catch off Long Island, till such time as we larn to respect the persons of your blessed niggers. But wouldn’t you have done all this long afore, if New York had been Athens, and Pacifico, the nigger, imprisoned at Charleston? Oh, you are an awful Lion to the weak, you are; but there ain’t a lamb milder to them that is likely to show you the smallest fight! RESIGNATION OF SOYEE. Considerable excitement has,for some time past, been occasioned at the West End, by the rumour of its being the intention of Mons. Soyer to resign his position as Chef of the Reform Club. A few days ago the melancholy rumour was changed into frantic certainty, and it became generally known that Soyer had resigned the basting spoon of ofiice into the hands of the Committee, and had put his spit at their feet. On the first announcement of this intelligence, the enquiries were very general whether Lord John would go out with Soyer, whose retirement, it was .said, had shaken the cabinet to atoms. But on inquiry, it was ascertained that the cabinet shaken to atoms, was a cabinet pudding, which was being prepared at the moment, when in a state of pitiable agitation the Chef resolved on trowing up the oflice lie has so long adorned. \ arious causes have been assigned for tlie step that has been taken, but nothing is positively known. By some it is estimated that there has long been a coolness over the kitchen lire, and that Soyer has vacated his office, in the hope of finding a much wider range for his abilities. Some insinuate that he was dissatisfied with his subordinates, and that on seeing a sirloin of beef go ing round on the spit with improper ve locity, lie expressed his horror at things taking such a turn. In some quarters it is whispered that there are certain provisions contained in a bill which the Chef tbought neces sary to the maintenance of his govern ment; but those provisions requiring a bill of enormous magnitude, were ob jected to in committee as extravagant, and not in accordance with the moder ate taztes of the members, but Soyer declared it impossible to carry on the culinary government on a paltry scale of economy. Many of his plans re quired very early peas, but he and the Committee having, it is said, split upon these peas, and the latter refusing to shell out, the Chef had no alterna tive. Others give out, with an air of some authority, that Soyer’s schemes were so gigantic, as to require a sup ply of five hundred new stew-pans; but the requisition having been char acterized by an “exquisite” belonging to the Committee as something ‘•'■really stew-pan-do ns” the pride of the Chef was offended, and he resolved at once on retirement. This affair will cause much embar rassment. as it will cause the tilling up of several offices which the genius of Soyer was enabled to combine. There must be a minister for foreign affairs including all the French dishes, and none but a successor of the President du Paty could hope to preside over the pies. As to the putts, the loss of Soyer will not be so severely felt. as most of the puffs he was so famous for manufacturing were for his own use. 1 Caltttntt tfrrrfrii tn jfitn. ENJOYING A LAUGII. Who does not love to laugh, at times? Where is the man or woman that doesn’t find it a relief to smile and be happy ? Ami who so dull but he can occasionally enjoy, right heartily, a well planned or a well-related jest? Perhaps we have been blessed with an extraor dinary pleasant disposition; and per haps not; nevertheless, we can laugh, and enjoy it, too. It is now some years since the old styled hymns, originally adopted and sung in the puritan churches, were laid aside, for the improved and beautiful poems of Dr. Watts and others. But we can recollect a good many stanzas that used to lie “deaconed off “ line by line, and sung by the congregation, which were emphatically amusing.— Imagine, dear reader, a meeting’us full of people drawling out the following, for instance;— “ The race is not forever got By him who fastest runs; Nor the battle by those people Who shoot with the longest guns.” Now isn’t that poetical? At least, there is a strong tincture of truth in these homely lines, which may be com mended to the notice of our “fast” young men. The following lines, ad dressed to the Sun, chime very well with the preceding, although of more modern origin: “ All hail, thou glorious Sun ! Bright as anew tin pan ! Thou roundest, fairest, purest source— Os bread and cheese to man!” Then we have a touching allusion to the pomatum, or Macassar, which old uncle Aaron swabbed his whiskers with on a certain occasion; vide the fol lowing : “ ’Tis like the precious ointment Down Aaron’s beard did go:— Down Aaron’s beard it downward went, His garment skirts unto.” The next couplet is a thrilling and masterly address to whales, vampires, sharks, tom-cod, halibut, scuppog, eels, crarpies, et id omne genus —really a beautiful verse to sing in church! “ Ye monsters of the bubbling deep, Your Maker’s praises spout; Up from the sands ye codlings peep, And wag your tails about.” The quotations made above are very well known, and have been chaunted scores of times, by many of our read ers —undoubtedly, in good old times. The poetry and sentiments of these couplets are equalled only by two gems in the way of epitaphs , which may now be seen on the grave-stones of two rivals, in a church-yard near London. The first reads:— Here I lie, Snug as a bug, In a rug.” The man who died afterwards, deter mined not to be outdone by his com petitor, caused the following to be cut upon his tablet, which stands close by that of his rival:— “ Here I lies, A little snugger, Than that other bugger!” The above may be set down as old time specimens of “grave and senti mental poetry.”— Am. Union. SODA WATER. “After gwine up as far as Yutaw street, 1 crossed over and cum down on tother side of the street, looking in at one thing and another till 1 got most down to Charies-street. By this time I begun to be monstrous dry, and as I’d heard till a good deal about flic sody water what they have in the big cities, I thought I’d try a little at the fust place whar they sold it. Well, the fust doctor’s shop I cum to had a sody wa ter sign up and in I went to git sum. Ses I, “1 want a drink of your sody water.” “What kind of syrup will you have,” ses he, putting his hand on a bottle of molasses. “I don’t want no syrup,” ses I, “I want sody water.” “Ah,” ses he, “you want extra sody.” And with that he tuck a glass and put sum white stuff in it, and then held it under the spout till it was full, and handed it to me. 1 put it to my lied and pulled away at it, but I never got such a everlastin dose before in all my life. 1 got three or four swaliers down before I begun to taste the dratted stuff, and von may depend it liked to kill me right dead in my tracks. It tuck the breath clean out of me, and when 1 cum to myself, my tongue felt like it was full of nee dles, and my stummick like I’d swal lewed a pint of frozen soapsuds, and the tears was runnin out of my eyes in a stream. 1 drapped the glass and spurted the rest out of my mouth quicker’n light inn, but before I could git breath to speak to the chap what was standing behind the counter starein at me with all his might, he ax’d me if 1 wasn’t well?” “Well, thunder and lightnin,” ses I, “do you want to pisen me to death and then ax me if I’m well?” “ Pisen !” ses he. “Yes,” ses 1, “pisen ? I ax’d you for sum sody water, and you gin me a dose bad enough to kill a boss.” “1 gin you nothin but plain sody,” ses he. “Well, ses 1, “if that what’s you call sody water I'll be dedfetch’d if I’ll try any more of it. Why, its worse nor Ingin turnip juice stewed down six gal lons hito a pint, cooled off in a snow bank, and mixed with a hurrycane.” Jest then some bilin hot steam come up into my throat, that lik’d to blow’d my nose rite out by the roots. “ Ses he, “ Maybe you ain’t used to drinkin it without syrup.” “No,” ses 1, “and what’s more, 1 never will be.” “It’s much better with sassyparilla, or gooseberry syrup,” ses he. “Will you try some with syrup ?” “No lthank you,”ses l,and I paid him a thrip for the dose I had, and put out.
