(©tins from tjjr Tfimts. BABEL. BY MRS. JAMES GRAY. It rose - amidst the spacious plain In soLtary pride; Beneath it, like a billowy main, The city’s roofs lay wide: It was a wonder in the earth, From wh.ch the fabric took its birth. The gazer’s upward glancing eye O'er ridged galleries went; Still up and up, till with the sky Its roofless height seemed blent, And the thiek-columned balustrade Seem’d dwindled to a bennett’s blade. And he who scaled that height might hear The city’s distant hum, Dying upon the atmosphere, Till all around was dumb— Then start at his own lonely breath, So much it seem’d the realm of death. The rushing eagle deem’d that tower Only a darker cloud, And borne on wing of fatal power Against its summit proud, With sudden shriek and shock was hurl’d Down lifeless to the distant world. And tower on tower and pile on pile The monstrous building grew, Still vainly rising towards the smile Os heav’n's celestial blue— Or ’midst the tempest and the storm Rearing unscath’d its giant form. How swell’d the builders’ hearts with pride To see that tower of might— “We will not ask for wings,” they cried, “ Towardsheav’n to take our flight: Some stories more, a little time, By our own tower its walls we’ll climb.” Vain hope! vain boast! the lightning came, And wrapt the building round— God sent his messenger of flame To smite it to the ground: And a great nation’s impious trust At once was levell’d with the dust. Are not there builders even now Like those on Shinar’s plain ; Do they not heavenward strive to go By paths as false and vain 1 How many in thei’ wayward will Are bunding other Babels still! And bitter must the anguish be When that dread hour shall come— When each with sudden thrill shall see How high, how pure the dome Os heaven is o’er them, whilst the clay 01 their poor works all melts away. From the Dublin Nation, EVER! EVER! By the sunlight, by the moonlight, By the starlight all the same; In the paleness of the winter, In the music of the sweet wind, And the summer’s crimson flame— Or its wailing sad and low— Still I gaze and still I listen, Tho’ none else may dream or know. In the song-voice, in the speech-voice, There is but one far-off tone; In the silence of my bosom. But one burn.ng throb alone— But one form of shade or brightness In the mazes of my sleep, One pearl of snowy whiteness In my memory’s heaving deep! How I glory, how I sorrow, How I love with deathless love— How 1 weep before the chilling skies, And moan to God above ! I am higher, 1 am prouder, Than if stars were round my head ; I am drooping, I am lonely, Asa mourner o’er the dead.’ Yet I part not from my sorrow, -My glory and my gloom ; For the smiling of the May time, The sunshine or the bloom ; From the throb of burning quickness, That is answer’d far away, Over mountains, over waters, In the night or in the day! • €ljr Itiorli) of jfnsjjiatt. PARIS AND LONDON FASHIONS. Carriage Costume. Dress of rich drab grosde tours; the skirt closed up the front by silk ornaments in the form ot bows and tassels ; the latter repre senting acorns. ‘Hie corsage is high to the throat, and the sleeves loose at the ends, with under-sleeves of white mus lin. Pardessus of glace silk ; the col our bleu royal. The skirt or basquine ol this pardessus, which is rather long, is trimmed with five rows of silk fringe, each surmounted by a triple row of braid. r J he sleeves are loose in the Chinese style, and trimmed with rows of fringe and braid corresponding with the basquine. Bonnet of crinoline, trimmed on the outside with white lace, having a deep vandyked edge. Un der-trimming of small pink and w hite flowers. Gloves of pale yellow kid. Walking Dress. A small shawl mantelet of dark violet-coloured silk. It is cut out in scallops at the edge, and trimmed with narrow black edging, above which there is a trimming com posed of silk braid or soutache stitched on in a fanciful arabesque design.— Dress of sea-green silk, ornamented up the front with four narrow frills, pinked at the edges. These frills are so disposed that two turn to the right and two to the left side. The same trimming is carried up the front of the corsage. Ihe dress has loose under sleeves of white muslin. A straw bonnet, trimmed with straw-coloured ribbon, and a bouquet of mixed flowers on one side. White Lace Canezou. This elegant novelty is suited to evening costume, and its effect is extremely pretty when w’orn with a dress of coloured silk or satin. It is made very much in the style of the black lace jackets, except that the basquine at the waist is ex ceedingly small, consisting, indeed, merely ot a double row- of lace. This style of basquine is preferable to a deeper one, though in black the deep basquine is decidedly elegant. Cane zous are very fashionable when made of worked muslin, and worn with dresses of barege. In this manner they constitute a very elegant style of in door n'glig ‘. The Canezou is of sprig ged net, and it is trimmed with lace. The sleeves are gathed up at the inner part of thfe arm by a bow of ribbon. Apron for a Young Lady. The ma terial is black silk, and the trimming consists of silk braid and lace de laine. Gne row of lace is sewed at the edge °f the apron, and above it are several row s of braid. The epaulettes are trimmed in” corresponding style. The trout consists of horizontal bands of silk, on which are run row’s of braid, to the lower edge of each band is run a row ot | ace? an j at t h e et |g C t jj e u ppei land a row of lace stands up. it * rt {*• -1 his berthe is composed of re ~ s o lace, and it is made on a foun- tulle ’ Ihe rows of lace are f ■ ? , so as to narrow to a point in • he top is finished by a row of narrow insertion, beneath which is run a puik ribbon, and a berthe is fas tened in front by a large rosette of rib bon, with two short ends. The piece filling up the space in front should be made detached from the berthe, and may be fixed to the corsage of the dress before putting on the berthe. This piece is composed of drawn tulle ; and between each drawing a row of inser tion, with pink ribbon beneath it- General Observations on Fashion and Dress. The varieties of silk par dessus introduced for the present sea son, are very numerous; but mante lets still retain their supremacy for ele gant walking costume. Pardessus are usually plainly and simply trimmed, w hile rich lace and fringe are more gen erally reserved for the trimming of mantelets. The latter, when of colour ed silk, are frequently embroidered with black soutache ; whilst for black silk mantelets the soutache is of colour ed silk. We have seen a very prettv mantelet composed of black silk, and almost entirely covered with embroid ery in dark blue soutache; the mante let is edged with a row of very wide fringe—blue and black. Another man telet, recently received from Paris, is unique in its kind, but suited only for the carriage. The colour is cerulean blue, and it is embroidered with bou quets of roses in white silk, and trim ed with two rows of Honiton lace, headed by a ruche of narrow blue rib bon. For walking costume the new chine silks are favourite materials. Some very pretty walking dresses have been made of plain coloured silk, ornament ed with embroidery in soutache, either black or of the colour of the silk. There are many different kinds of new bare ges; some are quite plain, and others are figured with designs of flowers in every hue. The most favourite tints for the ground are dark blue, green, maroon, and violet. Flouncing is the most fashionable stvle of trimming for barege dresses, and they are worn over silk skirts of the same colour as the ground or the barege. On a former occasion we recommended the adop tion of this plan, which has the advant age of throwing out the colours of the barege. Our suggestion is now gener ally adopted. The new Chine silks which we have already noticed continue to enjoy a a high share of fashionable favour. — Many dresses of this elegant and showy material, intended for dinner costume, have been madej|ith double skirts, and with shawl of the silk itself. These berthes are edged with quillings of narrow ribbon, the space in front of the corsage being till ed up by an echelle composed of quil lings of ribbon. We have seen one of these dresses having the skirt trimmed with pinked flounces, and the corsage made with a shawl berthe trimmed with three frills—two of lace and one of pinked silk, the latter between the two Jace frills. The front of the corsage was ornamented with an echelle com posed of alternate rows of lace and rib bon. Ball dresses of tulle or tarletane, ornamented with straw’ embroidery or with straw’ trimmings, are very fashion able for young ladies. A dress of this description, worn last w eek at a fash ionable soiree, was peculiarly pretty. The dress was of white tulle, and the skirt w as ornamented with six flounces, each embroidered with straw at the edge. Another we have seen had the flounces scolloped, embroidered with straw, and edged with straw’ fringe. — The berthe and short sleeves of both these dresses were trimmed to corres pond with the flounces. Ladies having occasion to give or ders for evening or ball dresses may possibly obtain some useful hints from the following descriptions of a few ele gant dresses recently completed by fashionable London milliners: 1. A dress of white tulle with three jupes, worn over a skirt of pink silk, the latter of a tint sufficiently deep to render the colour quite decided, when reflected through the third or uppermost jupe. The jupes are gathered up at each side by bouquets composed of moss roses and buds, each bouquet di minishing in size from the lower one upwards. 2. Dress of pink crape. The skirt with four deep flounces, the upper one gathered in with the fulness at the waist. The berthe, which is of the same materials as the dress, is finished at the edge by a full trimming, and, descending over the shoulders, it unites with and forms a continuation-of the trimming on the short sleeves. With this dress a large bouquet of moss roses was worn in the centre of the corsage, and the coiffure was a bouquet of the same flowers at each side of the head. 3. Dress of amber-colour crape, with seven flounces. The berthe (alse of crape) as well as the sleeves, covered with narrow frills. Head-dresses, a wreath of olive, (fruit and foliage) the effect of w'hich was at once novel and elegant, and perfectly in keeping with the dress. 4. Dress of tarletane muslin, with five flounces. Berthe of Honiton lace. Bouquet de corsage, composed of ca melias, intermingled with hawthorn.— A w reath of the same flowers for the head. We have no nevelty to notice in the shapes of bonnets. The wide open front continues to be almost universally worn. There is, however, sufficient variety in trimming to compensate for the uniformity in shapes. For a supe rior style of promenade costume, or for the carriage, there are a number of beau tiful bonnets of French chip, or of tulle and crape lisse bouillonnce. For neglige walking dress and for the country straw bonnets are, as usual, preferred. Great numbers of straw bonnets have recently been made in Paris; they are intended for visitors to the provinces, or to the seaside, and many of them are very pretty. They con sist for the most part of fancy straw, and of white and black straw inter mingled, and they are usually trimmed with a mixture of ribbon and velvet —the ribbon of some bright colour, such as blue, pink, or light green, and the velvet either black or of some deep tint. A bonnet of black and white straw’ has been received within these few days from Paris. It is lined with pink silk, and trimmed, outside and in, with black ribbon and black velvet. — Another straw bonnet, also imported from Paris, is trimmed with wheat ears, and with Maroon and dark blue velvet ribbon intermingled. The same trimming ornaments the inside of the brim, and the strings are of velvet rib bon. Parasols are of every hue, but for the open carriage, white, pink, and blue, are the favourite colours. Many white SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. parasols are lined w'ith pink. C’hin6 silk is employed for parasols, but those composed of plain silk w ith rich bro caded borders, or edged with fringe or lace, are much more general. We have seen a lilac parasol ornamented with four rows of narrow’ black lace inser tion, placed at equal distances from the edge to the top, the edge of the parasol being trimmed with a fall of rather broad lace, and a circular frill of the same round the point at the top. A marquise parasol of white moire, w ith a coral handle, formed part of the trous seau of a foreign princess recently mar ried. j.Mjiii)3iifijji[ for tljt jXnplr. ASPHYXIA. As this is the season when sudden deaths from drowning &c., are very common, we publish the following modes of treatment which will be found to be invaluable : Cautions. —l. Lose no time. 2. Avoid all rough usage. 3. Never hold the body up by the feet. 4. Nor roll the body on casks. 5. Nor rub the body with salt or spirits. 0. Nor in ject tobacco-smoke or infusion of to bacco. Restorative Means. —ls apparently drowned send quickly for medical as sistance ; but do not delay the follow ing means; I. Convey the body care fully, with the head and shoulders sup ported in a raised position to the near est house. 11. Strip the body, and rub it dry ; then wrap it in hot blankets, and place it in a warm bed in a cham ber. 111. Wipe and cleanse the mouth and nostrils. IY T . In order to restore the natural warmth of body — • 1. Move a heated covered warming pan over the back and spine. 2. Put bladders or bottles of hot-w ater, or heat ed bricks to the pit of the stomach, the arm pits, between the thighs, and to the soles of the feet. 3. Foment the body with hot flannels; but, if possi ble : 4. Immerse the body in a warm bath, as hot as the hand can bear with out pain, and this is preferable to the other means for restoring warmth. 5. Rub the body briskly with the hand ; do not, however, suspend the use of the other means at the same time. V. In order to restore breathing in troduce the pipe of a common bellows (when the apparatus of a doctor is not at hand) into one nostril, carefully clos ing the other and the mouth; at the same time drawing downwards and pushing gently backwards, the upper part of the windpipe, to allow a more free admission of air ; blow the bel lows gently, in order to inflate the lungs, till the breast be a little raised; the mouth and nostrils should then be set free, and a moderate pressure made with the hand upon the chest. Repeat this process till life appears. Vl. Electricity to be employed early by a medical assistant. VII. Inject into the stomach, by means of an elastic tube and syringe half a pint of warm bran dy and water, or wine and water. VIII. Apply sal volatile or hartshorn to the nostrils. If Apparently’ Dead from Intense Cold. —Rub the body with snow, ice, or cold water. Restore warmth by slow degrees ; and, after some time if necessary, employ the means recom mended for the drowned, in these ac cidents it is highly dangerous to apply heat too early. If Apparently Dead from Noxious Vapours, 6z c.—l. Remove the body into a cool fresh air. 2. Dash cold water on the neek, face, and breast fre quently. 3. If the body be cold, ap ply warmth as recommended for the drowned. 4. Use the means recom mended for inflating the lungs, in di rection V. 5. Let electricity (particu larly in accidents from lightning) be early employed by a medical assistant. If Apparently Dead from Intoxi cation. —Lay the body on a bed, with the head raised ; remove the neckcloth, and loosen the clothes. Obtain instant ly medical assistance, as the treatment must lie regulated by the state of the patient; but in the mean time apply cloths soaked in cold water to the head, and bottles of hot water, or hot bricks, to the calves of the legs, and to the feet. If Apparently Dead from Apo plexy.—The patient should be placed in a cool air, and the clothes loosened, particularly about the neck and breast. Bleeding must be early employed bv a medical assistant; the quantity rcgu lated by the state of the pulse. Cloths soaked in cold water, spirits, or vinegar and water, should be kept applied to the head, which should be instantly shaved. All stimulants should be avoided. Incases of coup de soleil, or stroke of the sun, the same means to be used as in apoplexy. Scientific American. Vegetable Phenomenon. —About this time last year the cane upon seve ral islands in the rivers of East Ten nessee was discovered to be producing small grains which very much resem bled rye, both as to size and shape.— It grew in heads and was covered with chati’ like that of wheat. Tho produc tion was then considered remarkable, and so unusual that not even “the old est inhabitant” had ever seen any thjng of the kind. The conjectures respect ing the cause of the appearance of this unusual grain were very numerous— many persons (and some of them skill ed in botanic learning) supposed that the cane had, by some means, been inocu lated with wheat. This year we are told that the cane throughout East Tennessee is bearing, in almost incredible quantities,the same grain. At some places it would not be difficult to collect as much as twenty five or thirty bushels per acre. Some persons owning cane lauds have already gathered large quantities of the grain, which they find makes a flour equal in appearance to that of wheat, and equal ly as palatable when cooked in form of cakes, &c. Hogs and fowls eat the grain as it falls from the cane with the same greediness that they devour any other small grain. Another remarka ble feature about the matter is, that so soon as the grain begins to mature the cane begins to die, and the indications now are that all the cane in East Ten nessee will die out this season. It has been suggested to us that the farmers, by collecting this seed, might sow it upon their woodlands, and thus have excellent cane pastures for their stock, as there can be little doubt but that the grain will germinate, especial ly in moist lands.— Knoxville Kegister, 51 Column Crrrtrii to .fun. ‘Tlaughable blunder^ Two young gentlemen met i few evenings ago, at the house of an ac quaintance, some young ladies, for one of whom both gentlemen entertained tender feelings. In a spirit of frolic one of the young ladies blew out the I lamp, and our two friends, thinking iit a favourable moment to make known the state of their feelings to (lie fair object of their regard, moved seatt l at the same instant, and placed them selves, as they supposed, by the lady’s side ; but she had also moved, and the gentlemen were in reality next each other. As our friends could not whis per without betraying their wherea bouts, they both gently took, as they thought, the soft little hand of the charmer, and when, after a while, they ventured to give a tender pressure, each was enraptured to find it returned with an unmistakeable squeeze. It may well be imagined that the moments flew rapidly in this silent interchange of mutual affection. But the rest, wondering at the unusual silence of the gentlemen, one of them noiselessly slipped out, and suddenly returned with a light—there sat our friends,most lovingly squeezing each other’s hands —and supreme delight beaming in their eyes. Their consternation, and the ecstacy of the ladies, may be imagined, but not described. Both gentlemen bolted, and one was afterwards heard to say, “ That he thought all the while Miss ’s hand felt rather hard !”■— Liverpool Times. Timing it. —A minister in the High lands of Scotland found one of his pa rishoners intoxicated. Next day he called to reprove him for it. ‘lt is wrong to get drunk,’ said the parson. ‘ I ken that,’ said the guilty person ; ‘but then I dinua drink as meikle as you do!’ ‘Why, sir, how is that?’ ‘W by, gin it pleases ve, dinna ye ave take a glass o’ whisky and water after dinner ?’ ‘Why, yes, Jimmy; sure 1 take a glass of whisky after dinner, merely to aid digestion.’ ‘And dinna ye take a glass o’whisky toddy every night when ye arc gangin to bed V ‘ Yes, to be sure ; I j ust take a little toddy every night to help me sleep.’ ‘Well,’ continued the parishioner, ‘that’s just fourteen glasses a week, and about sixty every month. 1 only get paid once a month, anil then if I’d take sixty glasses, it wad make me dead drunk for week. Now ye see the on ly difference is, that ye time it better than I.’ The First Spree. Niver vos drunk but vunce in the whole corse o’ my life; niver means to be agin. The street seem’d to be wery steep, and 1 lifted my leg at ewery step as if 1 vos gettin’ up stairs ; seweral cart veels vos maltin’ conwolutions in my brain, and at one time I fancied my head vos a large carvin’ and turnin’ establishment, the lathes of vitch I vos keepin’ in mo tion with my feet.

Well, sure enough, the ground soon flew up and struck me in the forehead ; and as soon as the stars clear’d away I commenced climbin’ up with my hands and knees. ‘The next thing 1 saw vos a big brick house come full split round the corner, and 1 b’lieve it went right over me, but I don’t re member any more.— Old Newspaper. Definition of Dogmatism. —“ R obert, my dear,” said Jenny, with the deferential air of a scholar, “ Robert, what did Mr. Carraways mean when he said he hated dog—dogmatism?”— lopps was puzzled. “ Robert, my dear,” Jenny urged, “what —what in the world is dogmatism ?” Now it was the weakness of lopps never to confess ignorance of anything soever to his wife. “A man should never doit,” Topps had been known in a convivial moment to declare, “ It makes ’em con ceited.” Whereupon Topps prepared himself, as was his wont, to make a solemn satisfying answer. Taking oft” his hat and smoothing the wrinkles iff his brow, Topps said; Humph! what is dogmatism? Why, it is this, of course ; dogmatism is puppyism come to its full growth!” An Ordinary License. —A neat lit tle girl, apparently about nineteen, says the Frederick Herald, a few days ago entered the Clerk’s office, and removing her bonnet, enquired if Dr. Bradley Tyler was in. The Doctor, who was present, promptly and politely respond ed in the affirmative. “ Are you,” says the lady, “ the gentleman we are to have for Go vernor ?” “Why madam,” said the docjtor, with modest confusion, “there has been some talk on that subject.” “ Then you are the very gentleman I want. Have you any Licenses to dis pose of?” “Yes, madam ; will you have a re tailers or an ordinary License?” “ Au ordinary will do , doctor; lam only going to marry a little Dutchman .” “Not Slow-” —The Chambers (Ala.) Tribune tells the following anecdote of a famous liar in those parts, who would have beaten Sam Hyde “all out,” and given him “six for a start:” A friend of ours was telling us. not long since, of an acquaintance in South Carolina who was noted for his men dacity. He related of him the follow ing anecdote: Said someone to the liar, “Do you remember the ‘ time the stars fell,’ many years ago?” “ Yes,” said Mendax. “Well,” remarked the other, “1 have heard it was all a deception—that the stars did not actually fall.” “ Don’t you believe it,” returned Mendax, with a knowing look; “they fell in my yard as big as goose aiggs.

MANUFACTURER’S WAREHOUSE, 91 JOHN-STItEET, NEW YORK. A LARGE stock of these well known PENS constantly 011 hand, tor sale as above. CAUTlON.—Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil lott’s style op Label, his mode of putting up his Pens, and also Designating Numbers, he desires to give the following NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC. That nil genuine packages or boxes of Joseph Gil- Lott’s Pens have a foe simile of his signature on the reverseside. None other are genuine. Tiiie caution espe cially refers to his original No. 303, the great popularity of which has caused it to he imitated, and the number adopt ed by a host of pretended m akers. Joseph Gillott would further advise the public that, in all cases where his Numbers 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. All experience of thirt, 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 the American public,will incite him to eon tinned exertion to maintain the favor which he has ac quired.
