drills from tjjf v urtn. SOME THINGS LOVE ME. BY THOMAS BUCHANAN READ. All within and all without me Feel a melancholy thrill. And the darkness hangs about me. Oh, how still! To my feet the river glideth. Through the shadow, sullen, dark, On the stream the white moon rideth Like a bark: And the linden leans above me, Tdl I think some things there be In this dreary world that love me, Even me. Gentle flowers are springing near me, Shedding sweetest breath around ; Countless voices rise to cheer me, From the ground: And the love bird comes—l hear it, In the tall and windy pine, Pour the sadness of its spirit Into mine ; There it swings and sings above me, Till I think some things there be In this dreary world that love me, Even me. Now the moon hath floated to me, On the stream I see it sway, Swinging, boat-like, as ’twould woo me Far away; And the stars bend from the azure, I could reach them where I lie, And they whisper all the pleasure Os the sky: There they hang and smile above Till I think some things there be In the very heavens that love me. Even me. Now when flows the tide oi even, Like a solemn river, slow, Gentle eyes akin to heaven On me glow; Loving eyes that tell their story, Speeding to my heait of hearts ; But I sigh, “ a thing of glory Soon departs.” Yet when Mary fades above me, I must think that there will be One thing more in heaven to love me, Even me. From the Literary American. LEAN OVER ME AT STARLIGHT, Lean over me at starlight, When my love is pure and wild ; Fold me lightly to thy bosom, My own, my undetiled .’ Shall 1 love thee—shall I love thee ! When the angels scarcely dare Twine their thin, transparent lingers In thy shining, golden hair ! Shall I praise thee—shall 1 praise thee, In my lisping, lyric strain ! While the pure lips of the angels Deem such melody profane ! 1 am weary—give me slumber, As the mother claims her child ; Fold me fondly to thy bosom, My own, my undetiled! THE ADIEU. FROM THE FRENCH OF CASSIMIO DELARIGNE. The brigantine, Rolls by the strand. To bear me from My native land, O, virgin Queen I turn to you ! Adieu, dear scene — Provence, adieu!

The road en tered on a lonely range of hills, the pedestal ot an abrupt spur standing out from the side of the volcano. The soil was covered with stunted shrubs and a growth of long yellow grass. I could see the way for half a league be fore and behind: there was no one in sight not even a boy-arriero, with his two or three donkeys. I rode lei surely along, looking down into a deep ravine on my right and thinking to “that is an excellent place for robbers to lie in wait; I think 1 had bet terload my pistol —which 1 had fired of! just before reaching Tequila. Scarce ly had this thought passed through my mind, when a little bush beside the voad seemed to rise up; I turned sud denly, and, in a breath, the two barrels of a musket were before me, so near and surely aimed, that l could almost see the bullets at the bottom. The weapon was held by a ferocious-looking native, dressed in a pink calico shirt and white pantaloons; on the other side ot me stood a second, covering me with another double-barrelled musket, and a little in the rear appeared a third. 1 had walked like an unsuspecting mouse into the very teeth of the trap laid be fore me. “Down with your pistols,” cried the first, in a hurried whisper. So silently and suddenly had all this taken place, that 1 sat still a moment, hardly real izing my situation. ‘‘Down with your pistols and dismount!” was repeated, and this time the barrels came a little nearer my breast. Thus solicited, 1 threw down my single pistol—the more iea lily because it was harmless—and got on my horse. Having secured the pistol the robbers went to the rear, nevei ot a moment losing their aim. fV e ;\ 1 Kll ‘'"h'red me to lead my horse ■.[ J OB, : a direction which they !ftl ‘ * ,m e 6 Went down the side f f lut a quarter of a to a patch of bushes and tall thovVlf VIOW ? om the road , where y a ec, one oi them returning, ap krarently to keep watch. The others, deliberately levelling their pieces at me, commanded me to lie down on my face—“ la boca a tierra /” 1 cannot say that I felt alarmed; it had always been a part of my belief that the shadow of Death falls before him—that the man doomed to die by violence feels the chill before the blow has been struck. As 1 never felt more positively alive than at that moment, I judged my time had not yet come. 1 pulled off my coat and vest, at their command, and threw them on the grass, saying, “Take what you want, but don’t de tain me long.” The fellow in a pink calico shirt, who appeared to have some authority over the other two, picked up my coat, and one after the other, turned all the pockets inside out. I felt a se cret satisfaction at his blank look when he opened my purse and poured the few’ dollars it contained into a pouch he carried in his belt. “llow is it,” said he, “that you have no more mo ney ?” “ I don’t own much,” I answer ed, “ but there is quite enough for you.” J had, in fact, barely sufficient in coin for a ride to Mexico, the most of my funds having been invested in a draft on that city. I believe 1 did not lose more than twenty-five dollars by this attack. “At lease,” l said to the rob bers, “you’ll not take my papers”— among which was my draft, “ No” he replied, “no me valen nada .” (They are worth nothing to me.) Having searched my coat, he took a hunting-knife which 1 carried (belong ing, however, to Lieut. Beale,) exam ined the blade and point, placed his piece against a bush behind him and came up to me, saying, as he held the knife above my head : “Now put your hands behind you, and don’t move, or 1 shall strike.” The other then laid down his musket, and advanced to bind me. They were evidently adepts in the arts; ail their movements were so carefully timed that any resistance would have been against dangerous odds. 1 did not consider my loss suf ficient to justify any desperate risk, and did as they commanded. With the end of my horse’s lariat, they bound my wrists firmly together, and having me thus secure, sat down to finish their inspection more leisurely. My feelings during this proceeding were oddly he terogeous —at one moment burning with rage and shame, at having neglect ed the proper means of defence, and the next, ready to burst into a laugh at the decided novelty of my situation. My blanket having been spread on the grass, everything was emptied into it. The robbers had an eye for the curious and incomprehensible, as well as of the useful. They spared all my letters, books and papers, but took my ther mometer. compass and card-case, to gether w ith a number of drawing-pen cils, some soap (a thing the Mexicans never use.) and what few little articles of the toilette l carried w ith me. A bag hanging at my saddle-bow', con taining ammunition, went at once, as well as a number of oranges and se gars in my pockets, the robbers leaving me one of the latter, as a sort of con solation for my loss. Between Mazatlan and Tepic, 1 had carried a doubloon in the hollow of each foot, covered by the stocking. It w as well they had been spent for priete, for they would else have certainly been discovered. The villains unbuckled my spurs, jerked oil’ my boots, and exam ined the bottoms of my pantaloons, ungirthed the saddle and shook out the blankets, scratched the heavy guard of the bit to see whether it was silver, and then, apparently satisfied that they had made the most of me, tied every thing together in a corner of my best | blanket. “ Now,” said the leader, w hen ; this was done, “shall we take your 1 horse!” This question was of course a mockery; but I thought I would try an experiment, and so answered in u very decided tone: “No; you shall! not; 1 must have him; 1 urn going to Gaudalajara, and I cannot get there without him. Besides, he would not answer at all for your business.” He made no reply, but took up bis piece, , which I noticed was a splendid article, and in perfect order, walked a short distance toward the road, arid made a signal to the third robber. .Suddenly he came back, saying: “Perhaps you may get hungry before night—here is something to eat;” and with that he placed one of my oranges and half a dozen tortillas on the grass beside me. “ Mil gracias” said I, “but how ami to eat w ithout hands?” The other then coming up, he said, as they all three turned to leave me: “Now we are go ing; we have more to carry than we had before we met you; adios.” This was insulting; but there are instances under which an insult must be swal lowed. I waited till no more of them could be seen, and then turned to my horse, who stood quietly at the other end of the lariat: “Now, prieto” 1 asked, “ how are we to get out of this scrape?” He said nothing, but 1 fancied I could detect an inclination to laugh in the twitching of his nether lip. However, I went to work at extricating myself a difficult matter, as the rope was tied in several knots. After tugging a long time, I made a twist which the India rubber man might have envied, and to the great danger of my spine, succeeded in forcing my body through my arms. Then, loosening the knot with my teeth, in half an hour I was free again. As 1 rode off, I saw the three robbers at some distance, on the other side of the ravine. It is astonishing how’ light one feels after being robbed. A sensation of complete independence came over me; my horse, even, seemed to move more briskly, after being relieved of my blankets. I tried to comfort myself with the thought that this was a genu ine adventure, worth one experience— that, perhaps, it was better to lose a few dollars than have even a robber’s blood on my head; but it would not do. The sense of the outrage and indignity was strongest, and my single desire was the unchristian one of revenge. It is easy to philosophize on imaginary pre mises, but actual experience is the best test of human nature. Once, it had been difficult for me to imagine the feeling that would prompt a man to take the life of another; now it was clear enough. In spite of the threats of the robbers, I looked in their faces sufficiently to know them again, in whatever part of the world I might meet them. 1 recognized the leader— a thick set, athletic man, with a short, black beard—as one of the persons 1 had seen lounging about the tienda , in Amatitlan, which explained the artifice SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. that led me to display more money than was prudent. It was evidently a preconceived plan to plunder me at all hazards, since, coming from the Pacific, ] might be supposed to carry a booty worth fighting for. 51 Column (Errrtrir to jFutt. = A EISII STORY] The second day out, our course wa west, and we took the N. E. trad winds. Whales of enormous dimen sions were seen in various directions, creating surprise and excitement to all who had never before seen the Levia than of the deep, and gave much inter est to the scene. The cry was “look here!” “see there!” “look yonder!” “what are they doing?” “how they do spout up the water!” The most vociferous of these inqui rers, was my dear friend, the Ver monter, who, it appears, had escaped the “negro fever,” and had not been carried off by alligators and sea ser pents. I was right glad to see him again, as 1 knew his curiosity would be all alive, and was in hopes that we should have another “ regular J ack on board, with whom he would scrape acquaintance in order to gratify it: and sure enough, 1 soon saw him board a sailor of the right sort, and I hastened forward in order to have the benefit of the colloquy. “Capting,” said he, “what are them orful big fish?” “Eishyou call ’em, eh?’ said Jack; “well, they are submarine steamboats, such as Jonah took passage on as he was going somewhere along the Persian Gulf.” “Jonah!” echoed the Vermonter; “(J now 1 know; they’m whales, ain't they? What almighty big fish they be! “Well, shipmate,” replied Jack, “you may call ’em what you like, but when 1 was bo’swain of the Ohio, 1 heard the chaplin, who has pretty much overhauled the log about such matters, say that they were no more fish than lie was.” “ Well, l always thought that a whale was a fish,” said the Vermonter. “So did 1 once,” answered Jack; “but we must always live and learn.” “ What in natur are they doin’ on, spouting up water so; are they mad at us for coining among them?” asked the V ermonter. “O no, thank God,” said Jack, “they are only laughing. A mad whale is another guess sort of a fellow; I’ve seen ’em to my sorrow, and I hope I may never see any more such. But,” he continued, in a serious tone, “I am afraid these steamers will meet with the rubbers one of these days.” “ What for,” asked the Yankee. “O they make such a thundering dashing with their wheels,and a rattling with their engines, that they wake up the whale babies, and that makes the old ones wrathy as blazes;” was the reply. “ Well, 1 don’t think they could do much hurt if they was to try,” said the Vermonter. “Just all you know about it,” re sponded Jack. “That fellow there,” he continued, pointing to a very large one near us, “would makes no bones of sending us to the bottom sooner than you could say Jack Robinson, if he took a notion to do it.” “You don’t say so?” said the Ver monter, aghast. “Yes 1 do,” was the reply. “1 know what they can do, as 1 have found out to my wist more than once. The last time was about two months ago, when I was third mate of the Blubber, Capt. Whalebone. It was somewhere about these latitudes, but rather farther to the westward—but I don’t like to tell the story.” “Du now,” said the Vermonter, “J should like to hear it.” “Well, to oblige you,” says Jack, taking a fresh quid, “I’ll tell it, though 1 had rather not. You see,” he con tinued, “these chaps are rather cranky, and get into a devil of a flurry some times, and then we have to throw over some of the crew to prevent them from staving into us. You’ve heard about throwing a tub to the whale, have’nt you?” asked Jack. The other assented. “But they know better now, and nothing will do but some live animal. Well, the last voyage of the Blubber, as we were standing up the coast N. W. and by W., with our starboard tacks aboard, the lubber at the helm, not minding what he was about, run us right into a she whale, as she lay upon her back suckling twins, and cut one of the little ones in two. Down comes her tail, and away went bowsprit and figure head, with all the for’ard hamper, and under she goes in a terrible phecze. Very soon we found that she had been only getting an offing; for up she comes again, about two cables length off, abreast the weather beam. “‘Standby all hands!’ said the Cap tain; ‘let run the lee braces! hard a port!’ says he to the man at the helm. This was, you see, to get her head round, so as she shouldn’t he struck amid ship. But, Lord love you! ’twas of no use, she was close aboard and made a breach at us. Letting go the lee braces, brought the ship upon her even keel, and she being pretty well down in the water, over she went just clearing the bulwarks, but carrying away the mainmast with everything aloft, and our long boat with it. I was standing near the break of the quarter deck, and came devlish near going too. “‘Mr. Harpoon,’ says the Captain to the second mate, “ somebody must go. Where’s the Kanaka?’ “That meant our cook, a Sandwich Islander, and just at that minute up he comes out of the cabin. In a jiffy Mr. Harpoon catches him by the scruff of the neck and the slack of his trowsers, and chucks him overboard; smack he went down the throat of the whale, and was stowed away under deck, I warrant you.” At this moment, the pilot sang out— “For’ard there! stand by to take in sail!” “Aye, aye!” responded Jack: and nodding to the Vermonter, “I’ll finish this log next watch,” he said, and bustled aloft. —Notes on California. Why is a good sermon like a kiss? Do you give it up? Because it only requires two heads and an application! “You had better ask for manners than money,” said a finely dressed gen tleman to a beggar boy who asked for alms. “1 asked for what I thought you had the most of,” was the boy’s reply. for tjjr DEPTHS OF THE EUROPEAN S LAS. In the neighbourhood of the Conti nent the seas are often shallow, and their bottom seems to be only the con tinuation by gentle slopes, of the re lief of the continents which border them. Thus the Baltic Sea has a depth of only 120 feet between the coasts of Germany and those of Sweden—scarce ly a twentieth part of that of Lago- Maggiore near the Italian Alps; farther north it becomes deeper. The Adriatic, between Venice and Trieste, has a depth of only 100 feet. In these two cases we see that the bed is only the continuation of the gentle inclination of the plains of Northern Germany and of Friuli, it is the same with the Northern Sea, and with those which wash the British Islands. Here is found a submarine plateau, which serves as a common basis for the coasts of France and the British Islands ; nowhere does it sink lower than 600 feet, and fre quently it rises much higher. Between France and England the greatest depth does not exceed 300 feet; but at the edge of the plateau, (south-west of Ire land, for example,) the depth suddenly sinks to more than 2,000 feet; we may say that here the basin of the Atlantic really begins. The seas in the south of Europe are distinguishd from the preceding by their much greater depths. The basin of the Mediterranean may be called a basin broken through and fallen in, resembling on a small scale what the Pacific Ocean is on a large one. All the short and abrupt slopes of the lands surrounding it fall rapidly towards the interior. The western ba sin, in particular, seems to be very deep; it is isolated from the Atlantic by a submarine ridge or neck, which, in the narrowest part of the Strait of Gibral tar, is not more than a 1,000 feet be low tin* surface. But a little farther towards the east the depth falls sud denly to 3,000 feet; and at the south of the coast of Spain and of the Sier ra Nevada, a depth of 6,000 has been ascertained by Captain Smith. Cap tain Berare indicates still greater depths on the coast of Algeria. If we may believe Marsigli, and if lie has not made some mistake in the statement, there has been found in the prolongation of the Pyrenees the enormous depth of 0,000 feet. Not far from Cape Asma ra, on the north-west of Sardinia, the plummet has been sunk, without touch ing bottom, at a depth of nearly 5,000 feet.— Guyofs Earth and Man. A New Eire Engine. —An ingenious citizen of Augusta Ga., bus invented a new Steam Fire Pump, or Engine, which is said by the Constitutionalist of that city to perform wonders. By the use of this pump two streams of water can be thrown over the largest three story houses, and it will easily convey two powerful streams as far as the hose attached will reach, and yet lose but little of its force. At any hour of the day or night, with two men to work it, steam can be raised, and the pump put in complete working order in the short space of ten minutes. This is is certainly a valuable invention, and by being brought into use generally in large cities would do more towards put ting an end to the disgraceful fire riots which so frequently occur, than all the laws the municipal authorities could pass on the subject in an age. Igfff The Trenton Gazette notices a novel instrument of destruction in the shape of a revolver with seven barrels, each of which is calculated to contain eighteen charges. These are fired in rapid succession, giving 120 discharges in five minutes. It is intended to be mounted on a swivel. Spontaneous Combustion. —At a late trial at Darmstadt, of John Stauff, for the murder of the Countess of Gorlitz (whose death had been attribu ted to spontaneous combustion,) some of the most eminent physicians of Ger many, Baron Liebig, and the other scientific men who joined in the report, declared not only that it was impossi ble in the case of the countess, but that spontaneous combustion of the human body in any case was impossible. They declared that the ordinary belief on this subject was a delusion; that they had carefully examined the evidence in ail eases of spontaneous combustion that had been reported, and found it all so defective as not to weigh for an in stant against their conviction of the physical impossibility of such an oc currence.
