Beaumont and Fletcher. 1 could not think her spirit fled ; [ could not make my sweet love dead ; Though oft they told me she was gone, And’t was but dust I looked upon ; I could not make her dead. She lay as if in dreamy rest, Her hands meek folded on her breast; Her lips which knew no word of guile, Half parted with a beaming smile ; I could not make her dead. A pale rose gemmed her raven hair, As’if it loved to blossom there ; Those silken locks, that without check Twined with the lilies of her neck ; 1 could not think her dead. The birds sang sweetly in their play, Beneath the casement where she lay ; And then I knew she only dreamed, For every thing so life-like seemed, 1 could not make her dead. The sun sank golden in the west, And left his last beam on her breast; And sweetly there it quivering lay, And shodk iier vest like the heart’s quick play ; I saw she was not dead. He tried to fright me with his speech, His solemn words, that cunning leech ; That the tide of life had ceased to flow ; In vain, I knew it was not so ; 1 knew she was not dead. Like two twin flowers upon one stem We grew, and loved, and bloomed like them; ’T was not in nature, then, that one Should lade, the other still live on ; How could my love be dead ? They told me of a cold, dark grave, And singing leaves that o er it wave ; Os the mottled worm would be the guest Os her I loved the dearest, best; I dared not think her dead. But when I pressed her sweet lips twain, And felt no kiss pressed back again ; And in her eye no tears could see, When mine were flowing mournfully, I knew her spirit fled. My hand stole o’er her marble breast; No gentle throb disturbed its rest; No thought lay there for me divine, As the rock heeds not the red sunshine ; I knew my love w r as dead. I saw’ it all; the purest soul That ever earth held in control, Had hushed its sweet melodious tone ; I knew that I was left alone— I knew my love was dead. Sleep came ; and bathed in its smooth stream, Her spirit floated through my dream; The same sweet smile and form were there, The same pale rose wreathed in her hair ; My dear love was not dead. She whispered me of sunny lands, Where time moved not by dropping sands ; Os singing birds and chanting streams; Os scenes more fair than pictured dreams, To which her spirit dear had fled. Morn came—a tear wason my cheek ; Os joy or grief, 1 could not speak ; The dead love by my side lay shriven, The living love w r as blessed in heaven ; In truth she was not dead. 1 HAVE SOMETHING SWEET TO TELL YOU. BY THE LATE MRS. OSGOOD. I have something sweet to tell you. But the secret you must keep; And remember, if it isn’t right, I am “ talking in my sleep.” For I know I am but dreaming, When I think your love is mine ; And I know they are but seeming, All the hopes that round me shine. So remember when I tell you What 1 cannot longer keep, W e are none of us responsible For what we say in sleep. My pretty secret’s coming! O, listen with your heart, And you shall hear it humming So close ’twill make you start. 0, shut your eyes so earnest, Or mine will wildly weep ; I love you ! I adore you ! but— “ I am talking in my"sleep !” €I)C linnj C’dlcr. AYSHE. We copy the following Oriental sto ry from a review of “ Two Years Re sidence in a Levantine Family, by Bayle St. John,” in the United Service Magazine , where it appears as an ex tract from the work under notice : Two or three years ago, there lived at Kafr Zerat, a young man named Ha run, who had a little sister named Ay she. They followed the trade of baboosh makers, and w r ere considered to be well to do in the world. lie sat all day in his shop in the bazaar, she w’orked at home in a half-ruined house on the outskirts of the village. One afternoon towards the asr, (about three p. somebody knocked at the door; shaped out, “ Min and a voice an swered “Ana Abu Samra, I the father of blackness. So little Ayshe under stood that this was a negro, who was inclined to joke with her, and paid no attention. Hut he knocked again, and said he was hungry and thirsty, and asked for a bit of bread and a draught of water. So she ordered a young black slave, who was sleeping in the sunshine, to arise and open the door, and give the man what lie wanted and send him away. The slave did as she was bid, and Abu Samra, as he called himself, walked impudently into the middle ot the room, and looked up at the gallery where she was sitting.— Upon this she covered her face, and said, “O, stranger, this is not wise con duct ; you have asked me for bread and water, but it seems that you have come here to gaze upon my cheeks.” He was a man of gigantic stature, so that his head reached almost up to the gallery, his arms were long, his should ers broad, and when he laughed, in re ply to this speech, she thought he was an efrit, who had taken a fancy to walk about thus in the light of the sun. She was very much afraid to hear him laugh, and called out for her slave, but received no answer. “ Thou wilt not hurt me,” said she. “Allah forbid, ’he replied. “ Thou art the light of my eyes—thy face is like the moon—thy breasts are little pomegranates. He said this in a jeer ing tone as he qame up stairs. She ran and hid herself, but he followed her, exclaiming , “ Ya, Mahu boubi,” (O, my beloved.) He had killed the slave in the pas sage below, and had thrown the body into the stable. Having bound Ayshe hand and loot, and put a gag in her mouth, he searched the house and took possession of all the jewels and the money t at were in it, to the amount ot a thousand piastres, and when Harun came home, he killed him also. He then cast the dead bodies into the well and said to Ayshe, “ O, my little jewel! I have spared thee for thy youth, and thy loveliness. Wilt thou come with me and share my fate. It is my calling to smite the strong and the powerful, and to live upon their spoils. 1 can break the bones of two men with one blow of my fist, and can kill a buffalo with a kick, for 1 am a man of might, and 1 laugh at the pasha and the seras kier, and the soldiers. If thou wilt be my little wife, I will spare thee; If not, 1 must throw thee also down the well.” Ay she reflected within herself—“lf I allow myself to be killed, 1 shall not be able to avenge the death of my brother Harun so she replied. “My master, it is a great delight to me to be the servant of a strong man who can kill two men with one blow of his fist, and a buffalo with a kick.” The black man took her away with him to a lonely house near the road to Janta, and he lived two years more, robbing merchants and travellers, and murdering them. The iittle Ay she would have been glad to escape, but she was so closely watched by a wicked old woman, who never left the house. Otherwise she was well treated, and Abu Samra loved her and gave her jewels and tine clothes, and made haste to return from his bloody expeditions to lay his head on her lap, and embrace her, and call her the light of his eyes. She played her part with cunning, and fondled his great ugly head as she whis pered to herself, “When will the cord or the sword do vengeance for the death of my brother Harun One night this accursed Abu Samra came back to his house, and said, “ Let us be merry. 1 have killed a Christian dog, who was coming from Alexandria with great wealth. Ilam dulillah, I shall go forth no more for a month, for this has been a lucky day.” She replied—“ O, brave Samra.— Now tell me, will it not be better to take your little wife to the fair, that she may see the fantasia and enjoy her self?” “ If it were not for fear,” he answered, “ I would do so.” “ Whom dost thou fear?” she cried, laughing. “Canst thou not kill two men with one blow, and a buffalo, with a If thou lovest me take me to the fair.” He was persuaded, and next day, in spite of the advice of the wicked old woman, he put Ayshe upon a tall don key, and took money, and walked by her side to Janta. All the way she sported and toyed with him as a kitten would sport and toy with a lion. “ Be ware,” said the narrator, parenthetical ly, “of a woman who caresses you over much, for she is going to betray you.” Thus was it in this case, for no sooner had they got into the centre of the crowd, and in sight of the bayonets of the guard, than she cried out, “ Help, O, good people ! Help, O, brave soldiers ! This black devil is the man that killed the Christian from Alex andria. This is he that murdered my brother Harun.” And he who boasted of his strength, allowed himself to be bound like a child, muttering, “ 1 have nurtured a serpent to destroy me. It is the will of God.” They hanged him in the market-place with a label round his neck, declaring him to be the murderer of sixteen peo ple. He submitted to his fate tran quilly, but he was observed to shiver when he heard the voice of a woman calling from the crowd, “ Remember my brother Harun.” far tilt projilr. PHILOSOPHY OF FREEZING WATER. We copy from the London Literary Gazette, the following synopsis of a paper lately read at a meeting of the Royal Institution, by Mr. Faraday, “On Certain Conditions of Freezing Water.” The facts brought forward are some of them new and all of them in- teresting: * “The first point illustrated was the extraordinary affinity of water for other bodies, the proof of w hich was the heat evolved w hen water was poured on dry, or anhydrous sulphate of copper. He could show, he said, a thousand in stances of attraction of water, yet, notwithstanding, ice (particles of wa ter associated together) exhibits the perfect expulsion from water of every other thing. There is no purer sub stance in nature than ice (a most beau tiful blogk, 140 lbs. weight, from Nor way, as transparent and clear as air, was in the theatre), and if water were made impure purposely, every impuri ty would be expelled in the actoffreez ing. One proof of this nature is, that in sea water ice there is no trace of salt. The proofs brought forward was the effect of tests on specimens of wa ter. Cistern and well water were clouded with muriates by nitrate of silver, but in the water from the melt ed Norway ice, there were none. And again, under the solution of soap test, proving the presence of sulphates, which render water hard, the ice water gave the lather at once to a single drop, but seven or eight portionsrof the test w ere required to produce the same ef fect in either of the others. This was a true measure of differences of purity, but, under the finest tests, no trace of saline impurity could be detected in the ice w ater. The next experiment, freezing a solution of indigo, showed how completely matter was expelled. To produce transparent ice artificially is difficult —it is always impure or tur bid from air ; he had tried boiling, and repeated distillation to drive out the air, but he never could get clear ice. He then thought of brushing over the water whilst it was freezing, and he succeeded. This operation he perform ed in the indigo solution by turning a feather round constantly in the tube placed in the freezing mixture; the particles of ice being thus kept sepa rate to allow the foreign matter and air to escape. A vesicle of ice, perfectly transparent, was withdrawn from the tube, which, when dissolved, was also perfectly colourless. Sulphuric acid was also similarly expelled. The ice of the acid water stirred with the same feather as in the indigo experiment ex hibited no bubble, no irregularity, no tinge of colour, and the ice water no acid power. Ammonia likewise, as being a body of an opposite class, was shown to be subject to the same expul sion. There was no trace of ammo nia in the ice or ice water, and the am monia left behind in the water whence SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. the ice was taken had increased its strength. The fact, however, of ex pulsion in regard to air is most curious; the affinity is stronger, owing to the ne cessity of air for the existence, in water, of animals and plants, and it is most difficult to expel air from water. — Freezing sets it free, although as in or dinary ice full of air bubbles, it be comes mechanically mixed with the ice particles. What particular condition there may be by which air escapes in the Norway and American Lakes, Mr. Faraday could not say, but he could say that if brushed or disturbed whilst freezing, the ice would be clear anVpure like the Norway block before him, like ice seen at waterfalls, or the icicles he remembered seeing after the burn ing of the Argyle Rooms. In both the latter cases the air is dashed away as the water was thrown against the ice or icicle. When Mr. Faraday found that ice contained no air, he wrote to Prof. Donnet, of Brussels, who dis covered that water free from air did not boil until its temperature was raised to 300 deg. F., and that it then bursts out at once, to ask him whether water from ice similarly explodes, and to try it under oil. lie did try it, and the ice water did explode. This experi ment, placing pieces of ice in small flasks of oil over spirit lamps, melting and heating up to explosion, was like the other several illustrations of the evening most successfully exhibited. — In conclusion Mr. Faraday remarked upon another curious point the philoso phy of ice discloses—namely: the power of solidifying possessed by par ticles in contact with two particles, and upon Prof. Thompson’s recent discove ry, that pressure influences the freezing of water or the thawing of ice. .51 (iahlrt nf A HINT TO JOHN BULL.

THE DIARY OF THE HIPPOPOTAMUS. As many of our country readers na turally feel anxious to know how the Hippopotamus passes his time in a strange land, where he is so far away from home and all his relations, we have gone to the expense of procuring the following particulars, which are now printed for the first time. The H ippopotamus gets up generally about six. The first thing he does is to wag his tail; he then grunts, nodding his head all the while to the Arabian, which is his peculiar method of saying “ Good morning!” At seven he has a pail of porrigde and maize, which he prefers to tea or coffee. After that he washes his hands—we mean his feet— in the tank which is put in his room as his washhand-basin. He sleeps till ten, when he turns out to receive the nu merous company that is always wait ing to see him. He takes several rounds in the park that is attached to his dwelling-house, bowing to his guests politely as he passes along. After this exertion, he lies down in the hottest patch of sand he can pick out, and curl ing himself up, till he looks like an im mense ball of india-rubber, he goes fast asleep. He rarely wakes up till the latter part of the day, when his first thought is to run and tap at the door of the Giraffes, who hang out in the next room to him. This act of civility over, he takes his bath, which some times lasts two or three hours. Du ring this time very little more than his nostrils are visible above the water. — The fact is, the Hippopotamus is of a modest, retiring disposition, and likes to hide himself as much as possible from the public eye. At six o’clock he leaves his bath and retires to his bed room. He never sees any one after six. A small bucket of porridge and maize, of which he is amazingly fond, is brought to his bedside, and the Arab boy feeds him with a spoon. After this he generally feels very sleepy, and lies down. He lays his head on the Arab’s lap, and, throwing his legs round his neck, is very quickly in the arms of Morpheus. Shakspeakf. ala Francaise. —To some tastes Siiakspeare, like railway accounts, must be cooked in order to be made pleasant. On the occasion of some recent festivities, M. Soyer, as we learn from the Morning Post , pro duced an invention in gastronomy. — Our contemporary informs us that “the new culinary innovation” (a rather pe culiar kind of innovation that must be), “was named Crovstade Shakspearienne and la HaUxnj Scribe.” Crovstade , friend Soyer? Oughtn’t it to have been salmi ? Surely, if you meant to concoct a Shakspearian dish in the style of Scribe and Ilalevy, you should have made a hash of it. A Joke from Mr. Speaker. —As the tellers on the Vote of Confidence division advanced to declare the num bers, the Speaker—with doubtless a prophetic sense of the majority of 40 —said, with a benignant smile at Min isters —“ Gentlemen will be pleased to keep^ their places.” Building Glass Castles in the Air. A huge dome, 200 feet in diameter— which, in point of size, is to make the domes of St. Paul’s and St. Peter’s and the Pantheon, look like very small dish covers—is run up, or rather, is intend ed to be run up, as the great feature of the proposed Building for the Industri al Exhibition. It is a question, howev er, whether this monster dome can be erected in the short space of time al lowed for the construction of the whole building. For ourselves, we have no hesitation in asserting, that if the open ing is made dependent on the comple tion of this great Daniel Lambert of a Dome, the Industrial Exhibition will most decidedly never be opened till Doom's-Day.

That Billy is the only Surviving heir to all that’s lelt; And that, they say, is nearly A good ten thousand dollars, ma— About six hundred yearly ! I did not hear, my daughter dear. Your last remark quite clearly ; But Billy is a clever lad, And no doubt loves you dearly ! Remember then, to-morrow morn. To be up bright and early, To take a pleasant walk with hint Across the field of barley ! CHERRY BRANDY: ITS HUMOUROUS EFFECTS. The Laird of Honniemoon was gae fond of his bottle. On one occasion he was asked to dine with Lord R , a neighbour of his; and his Lordship, being well acquainted with the Laird’s dislike to small drink, ordered a bottle of cherry brandy to be set before him after dinner, instead of port, which he always drank in preference to Claret, when nothing better was to lie got. — The Laird thought this fine heartsome stuff, and on he went filling his glass like the rest, and telling his jokes, and ever the more he praised his Lordship’s Port. “It was aline, full-bodied wine, and lay well on the stomach not like that poisonous stuff Claret, that made a body* feel as if he had swallowed a nest of puddocks.” The Laird had fin ished one bottle of cherry brandy, or as his Lordship called it, his “particular port,” and had just tossed off a glass of the second bottle, which he declared to be even better than the first, when his old confidential servant, Watty, came staving into the room, and making his best bow,announced that the Laird’s horse w as at the door. “Get out of that, ye fause loon,” cried the Laird, pulling off his wig and Hinging it at Watty’s head. “Do na ye see, ye blethering brute, that I’m just beginning my second bottle?” “ But, maister,” says Watty, scratch ing his head, “it’s amaist twall o’clock.” “ Well, what though it be ?” said the Laid, turning up his glass with drunken gravity, while the rest of the company were like to split their sides laughing at him and Watty. “It eanna be ony later, my man, so just reach me my wig and let the naig bide a wee.” It was a cold, frosty night, and Wat ty, soon tired of kicking his heels at the door—so, in a little while, back he comes, and, says he, ‘Maister, maister, it’s amaist one o’clock !” “ W ell, Watty,” says the Laird, with a hiccup—for he was far gone by this time—“it will never be any earlier, W atty, my man, and that’s a comfort; so you may just rest yoursel’ a wee while longer, till I finish my bottle. A full belly makes a stiff back, you know, W atty.” Watty was by this time dancing mad; so after waiting another half hour, back he comes, and, says he, “ Laird, Laird, as true as death, the sun’s rising.” “Weel, Watty,” says the Laird, looking awful wise, and trying with both hands to fill his glass, “let him rise, he has further to gang the day than you or me, Watty.” “ This answer fairly dumfounded poor Watty, and he gave it up in des pair. But at last the bottle was fin ished ; the Laird was lifted into the saddle, and off he rode in high glee, thinking all the time the moon was the sun, and that he had fine day-light for his journey home. “ Ilech, Watty, my man,” said the Laird, patting his stomach and speak ingawful thick, “we were nanethe worse for that second bottle, this frosty mornin’.” “ Faith,” says Watty, blowing his fingers and looking as blue as a bilber ry, “ your honour is, may be, nane the worse for it, but I’m nane the better: I wish I was.” “ Well, on they rode, the Laid grip ping hard at the horse’s mane and roll ing about like a sack of meal; for the cold air was beginning to make the spirits tell on him. At last they came to a bit of a brook that crossed the road, and the Laird’s horse, being pretty well used to have his own way, stop, ped short and put down his head to take a drink. This had the effect to make the Laird lose his balance, and away he went, over the horse’s ears, into the middle of the brook. The Laird, honest man, had just sense enough to hear the splash and to know that something was wrong ; but he was that drunk that he did not in the least sus pect that it was himself. “Watty,” says he, “there is surely something tumbled into the brook, Watty.” “ Faith, you may say that,” replied Watty, ready to roll off his horse w ith laughing, “ for it’s just yourself, Laird!” “ Ilout fie, no Watty,” cried the Laird, it surely canna be me.” “Surely, maister, it is yourself.” “It canna be me, Watty—-for I'm here /” _ _ Rich Joke, — An Irishman went a fishing, and among other things he hauled in, was a large sized turtle. To enjoy the surprise of the servant girl, he placed it in her bed-room. The next morning the first that bounced in to the breakfast room was Biddy, with the exclamation of-—“ be Jabers, I’ve gotyhe divil !” hat devil ?” inquired the head of the house, feigning surprise. “ Why, the bull bed-bug, sure that has been atein’ the children for the last two months.” Vicious.—To persist in kissing a pretty black eyed girl, when she reso lutely declares she w ishes you not to.

Philadelphia, June, 1850. ts JOSEPH GILLOTT’S STEEL PENS. MANUFACTURER’S WAREHOUSE, 91 JOHN-STREET, NEW YORK. A LARGE stock of these well known PENS constantly /% on hand, for sale as above. CAUTION.-Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil lott’s style of Label, his mode of putting up his Pens, and also Designating Numbers, lie 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 ot 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 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. An experience of thirty years has 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 theAmerican public, will incite him to con. tinued exCTtion to maintain the favor which he has ac quired.
