And when the night comes on I stand, VVheie ouce I used to wa.t, To see him coining t'.oin the tie Ids And meet hnn at the gate. Then I used to put my hand in his, And ea.ed uot more to play ; But I never meet him coming now, However long I stay. And you tell me he’s in heaven, and far Far happier than we; And loves us still the same—but how, Dear mother, can that be ? For he never left us for a day, To market or to fair, But the be.-t of all that father saw, He brought for us to sha.e. He cared for nothing then but us— -1 have heard father say, That coming back made worth his while Sometimes to go away. He used to say he liked our house Far better than the hall; He would not change it for the best, The grandest place of ail. And if where he is now, mother, All is so good and fair, He would have come back long ago, To take us with him there. He never would be missed from heaven: 1 have heard father say How many angels God has there, To praise hiin night and day. He never would be missed in heaven, From all that blessed throng ; And Wc*—O! we have missed him here, So sadly and so long ! But if he come to fetch us, then I would hold Ins hand so fact, I would not let it go again Till ad the way was.past. He’d tell me all that he has seen ; But I would never say, How dull and lonely we have been Since he went tar away. When you raised me to the bed mother, And I kissed him on the cheek, His cheek was pale and very cold, And his voice was low and weak. And yet I can remember well Each wo.d that he spoke then ; For he .-aid I mu t be a dear, good girl, And we should meet again ! And 01 but I have tried since then To be good thiough all the day ; I have done wnate'er you bid me, mother, Yet father stays away ! Is it because God loves him so 1 — 1 know ihat in his love, He takes the good away from earth, To live with h.m above! O ! that God had not loved him so! For then he might have staid, And kissed me ache u.ed of nights, \Y hen by his kuee I played. O ! that he had not been so good, So patient, or so kind! Oh! had we but been more like him, And not been left beh.nd ! THE CHAPELBY*THE SHORE.

POISONING BY COLOURED CON FECTION A BY. Caution. —Hannah Martin, aged four and a half years, Jane Embden, aged ten years, and Amelia Leir, also aged ten years, were admitted into the Lon don Hospital, on Sunday, April ‘2Bth, suffering from violent sickness and great prostration of strength. It appears that they had bought some sugared orna ments and coloured confectionary fioin a Jew in Petticoat Lane ; and that soon after they had partaken of these sweet meats they became very sick, com plained of a burning sensation in the mouth, sauces, and oesophagus, of great pain in the stomach and abdomen, and were seized with violent retching, which was attended, after a few hours, with profuse purging. Whin they were ad mitted into the hospital they were se riously ill, for the features looked pale and shrunk,the extremities were deathly cold, the pulse was in each case small and feeble, and the surface of the body, especially of the last-named child, was covered with a clammy perspiration. Emetics and sulphate of zinc were in stantly administered, and the vomited matters were saved for analysis. An tidotes of milk, white of egg, and de mulcents w e e also given in great abun dance, and after the sickness had subsi ded, they were permitted to sleep, f.mn which state they awoke considera bly revived. The vomited matters were evaporated to dryness, and the solid residue, not amounting to two drachms in weight, yielded abundant evidence of the presence of arsenic, copper, lead, iron, and zinc, all of which metals, excepting the last named, had doubtless been derived from the con fectionary of which the child'cn had partaken. On making inquiry into the matter, w r e were informed that between thirty and forty children had been at * tacked in a similar way, and that they had all purchased sweetmeats from the Jew in question ; but it does not appear that he was acquainted with the poison ous nature of his merchandise, foP he had purchased it (so he stated) as the refuse stock of a large and very respec table firm in the City- It is not gener ally known that the ornamental kinds of confectionary are frequently tinted ■with poisonous pigments—that the gieens, for example, are commonly pro /e u means °f arsenite of copper ( c eeles green), veidigris, or a mix ture of chrome and Prussian blue; the chromate of lead ; the reds, by verimllion (bisulphate of mercury) or oxide of iron; and the whites by carbonate of lead, oxide or carbonate of zme, chalk, or sulphate of baryta; an 1 that bequently the fine frosting fc which covers the commoner kinds of twelfth-cakes, and the hard white sugar of comfits, contain from 10 to 30 per cent, of plaster of Paris or of whiting. In the month of September 1847, Mr. iletley, who is the visiting surgeon of Bt. Marylebone Infirn ary, reported in the Pharmaceutical Journal that he was requested on the 14th of that month, to go as quickly as he could to the re lief of some persons, who had been taken suddenly and dangerously ill. lie found three adults and eight child dren severely affected with vomiting and retching, the ang.es of their mouths and linen being coloured green by the ejections. On seeking into the cause of this, he w r as told that one of the chil dren had brought two pennyworth of some coloured confection-ornament, ot which they had all partaken. Some of the offending article (a thin cake of su gar and Paris plaster covered with a layer of bright green) was found, and it at o.ice ma e the ease clear. In com meriting on the above, Dr. Guy states that “ an accident on a larger scale, but happily unattended by any fatal result, occurred in our own experience—one of the patients having been brought to the King’s College Hospital on the day af ter the accident. An oi namental green basket, after having been used at an evening party, was given to one of the attendants, who distributed the frag ments among the inmates of a large workshop. Vomiting and purging was the result. On inqui.y at several con fectioners’, we ascertained that arsenite of copper was commonly used to give a green colour to confectionary, and an ana ysis of a fragment of the basket confirmed this statement-” At the very time that the preceding article was going through the press, an inquiry was being inst tuted at Northampton, before the county coroner, Mr. H ieks, respecting the death of Mr. \V il.iain Cow field, w ho, w ith twenty others, were poisoned at a public dinner given in that town, on the 7lh of June 1848, w hen it appeared that the deceased had partaken of a blanc-mange, the top of which w as coloured with emerald green (aisenite of copper), of which he died. month of February 1840, Dr. \\rl’ergus published the ease of three children who were poisoned by eating the green sugared ornaments from a twelfth-cake. Aud in the month of June following, Professor Christison exhibited to the members of the Edin burgh Medico Chirurgical Society a green powder, w hich lie had purchased at a confectioner’s in that city. It was a portion of the stock employed to col our jellies, &e.; and on examination be found that it consisted of sugar mixed with verdigris and arsenite of copper. His attention was drawn to it by the severe illness of two maid servants, who had partaken of some jelly covered with it. Two years since, Professor Louyet, of Brussels, wrote to inform and caution us concerning the fact that bon-bons, coloured with an unusual quantity of chromate of lead, were be ing manufactured largely in Londyn and exported thence to Belgium. The bon-bons in question consisted of a spe cies of aromatised sugar, coloured yel low throughout its mass, exhibiting the scent and flower of lemon, and encrus ted with a species of transparent red currant shell. Very recently some cheap almond and carraway comfits have been sold at the grocers’ and con fectioners,’ in many parts of London, which are coloured by means of this pigment. This dangerous practice of colouring sweetmeats, &c., with poi sonous substances is, unhappily, not peculiar to the English; for very re cently some have been reported by MM. Houze and Jaubert, in which four persons were seriously attacked after having partaken of some bon-bons which were covered with arsenite of copper. One of the patients (a child aged six years) died from the effects of the poison, after an illness of two days ; and a second child w as brought so near to the grave that she did not recover for two years after the accident. So, again, it is recorded by Cheva ier, that at a breakfast given on a festive occa sion by an eminent Parisian lawyer, a boar’s head was decorated in a very artistic manner with masses of fat, w hich w ere coloured of a lively red and tint. One of the guests, who was well acquainted with chemistry, suspecting that the pigment might be poisonous, retained a portion of the fat for further examination, and he found that it con tained about two ner cent, of arsenite of copper Medical Times.

(ANN IBALISM IN TAE ARMY. We have heard occasionally <4 awful scenes on board ship w hen provisions ran out, but really we can find no ex cuse for the state of things dimly showed forth in the following adver tisement which lately appeared in the Times newspaper: “ Messman wanted lor a Cavalry Regiment quartered in England. He must be a person without encumbrance, who cooks himself !” We ask the reader, is there not some thing frightful ia the very idea of a man cooking himself, and does it not sug gest the still more awful question— when he has cooked himself who is to eat him? Humanity shudders, the hlood turns to curd in the middle of its way, the heart takes a pantomimic leap into the mouth, aud the brain com mences a reel at the bare supposition of a messman “cooking himself,” and the sti. ulation that he must be without encumbrance add s to the horror of the suettestion, for it shows that an act is on ... , contemplated which might leave a wife and family desolate. We know that the epicure, or rather the gourmand, will, by excessive in dulgence, so vitiate his taste and de stroy his appetite, that something ex traordinary will be required to rouse his deadened powers of enjoying food of the customary kind; but this adver tisement for a “messman who coch in m self,” is an outrage, not only on the best, but on the second best (and we might add the every-day suit for com mon wear), feelings of our nature. — We w onder that the advertisement did not add an intimation that the “mess man must be in quarters a week before he begins to cook himself. 1 It is to be hoped that the War-Office will inquire into the circumstances of this case, for the “Cavalry Regiment” has something dreadfully wrong in either its humanity or its grammar. Wherever the fault lies it ought to be corrected. THE REPUBLIC POUR RIRE. If it is true that “nothing kills like ridicule,” the French Republic must, by this time, be vitally dead, for although the upsetting of dynasties, thrones and constitutions must generally be regard ed as “no joke,” there never was any thing more universally laughed at, both at home and abroad, than La Rejyub lique Francome. It is burlesqued on the stage, squibbed in the press, cari catured in the shops, and quizzed every where. For some time there has been a show of outward respect for it within the doors of the Assembly, but now the Republic has become one of the standing jokes of those men who are entrusted with making its laws and carrying on its government. A few days ago the Member of Justice term ed the whole concern a “catastrophe,” amid the applause of all but a few, who, when they attempted to vindicate the dignity of the Republic, were met with shouts of laughter, as if the idea of there being any thing respectable or agreeable in the new order of things, was one of the wildest vagaries that an ill-regulated brain could have wandered into. The Assembly was, in fact, thrown into a state of contemptuous hilarity by every effort at expostulation against the word “catastrophe” having been applied to the revolution, and when an insignificant little knot of avowed Re publicans threatened to resign, the guf faws were loud and general. The only wonder now is, how long the F ench will put up with a system that one and all repudiate. A joke’s a joke, but no farce ought to be allowed to last too long, and if, therefore, the French mean to have a form of government intended for other purposes than to be jeered at in every possible manner, the sooner they set about it the better it will be for their interest as well as for their dignity. the economics of smoking. BY JOSEPH FUME. The man who smokes half his cigar, and puts the remainder by, knows no thing about smoking. The man who carries no cigar-case, has no right to levy contributions on those who do. Never buy a cigar at a chemist’s, they are sure to remind you of their origin. I once knew a chemist, who also sold wine and cigars, and 1 am sure he could only have had one work shop for his three businesses, and that was his laboratory. Mistrust the tobacco that is given in half-payment of a bill. Such dealers may be clever in drawing a bill, but it is rarely that their cigars are distin guished for being good “drawers.” The man who smokes with wine is quite capable of taking sugar with oysters. ♦ ■ A FAIR SPORTING OFFER. “Sir —l ave to arks yer parding for this here letter, wich l wood ave sent it direck to the Government if Ide ad the office were to send to, but if you will lie good enutf to forard it.

This game has been not only very popular in England lately, but is quite the rage at present in France. We do not like the game ourselves, for though you begin very low r , there is no know ing what it may rise to in the course of the evening, or where you will stop when once you have begun. The game is subject to too many drops to induce us to be carried away with it. We are not fond of playing so high; for let your plans be ever so perfect, the chances are that you will be com pletely thrown out; and, if you do win the pool, the pleasure is somewhat damped by your being thrown right into the middle of it. A French gen tleman has been riding the high horse at Paris with this game, and bent on carrying every thing before him, as cended with a balloon on horseback. — All w r e know is, that we should not “bet a pony,” much less a horse, upon any such jeu , w hich has too many “ups and downs” for our mundane taste. (t'rlrrtir of Wit. CELESTIAL LAW. A short time since a gentleman of this city was passing by the premises of a Chinese homhre , who keeps a res taurant not far from the corner of Sa cramento and Kearny streets. Perhaps not keeping the line of travel very cor rectly, as it was late at night, he fell into a cess-pool that was not very well inclosed, upon the bounds of the China man. Having sustained considerable damage, both in mind and costume, he called on an attorney to bring suit upon the ca>e. Previous to commencing, the man of law sent a note to the celestial delinquent, calling upon him to make amends to the complainant, or that he would be obliged to commence pro ceedings, and would send an officer for the purpose. In a short time the at torney received a note done up in the regular mandarian style, in full Chi nese characters. This was a puzzler; but our legal friend is not one of the, ‘scared sort,’ so he never rested until he found an interpreter, who rendered the document faithfully into English, of which the following is a copy: [translation.] By the law sos the Celestial Empire, which have been in force from the time of Confucius to the reign of the present illustrious Tau-kwang, it is provided that when a man trespasses upon another’s grounds, and thereby fill lot h into a sink, he shall get nothing but dirty clothes, unless lie happeneth to be an outside barbarian, in which case he shall also get laughed at. As-Sing be lieves those laws still in force in all parts of the world, and also in Califor nia. But, if Air. E. thinks otherwise, he can trot that officer along with the writ. This answer had the desired effect. All have stood in awe ever since, and As-Sing has not been visited by the men of law. — Pacific News.

The farmer said he should know them any where,and went on to describe their peculiarity. ‘Why,’ said the counsel for the pri soner, ‘they can’t be such a very rare breed—l have some very like them in my yard.’ ‘That’s very likely sir,’ said the farmer; ‘these are not the only ducks of the sort 1 have had stolen lately.’ Young man, will you be good enough to tell Mr. Jones that a gentle man wishes to see him.” “Yes, sir.” “Well, why don’t you go, then?

Philadelphia, June, 1850. ts JOSEPH GILLOTT'S STEEL PENS. MANUFACTURER’S WAREHOUSE, 91 JOHN-STREET, NEW YORK. ALARGEstock of these well known PENS constantly on hand, tor sale as above. CAUTlON.—Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil lott’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 ftte simile ol 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 hy a host ot pretended makers. Joseph Gillott would further advise the public that, in all cases where his Numbers and the phraseology of his Labels are adopted hy the parties above alluded to, the Pens are not made hy him, although asserted to he. An experience of thirty years has enabled Mr. Gillott to bring his Steel Pens to tiie highest state or pekfec thin, and the liberal patronage which he lias long enjoyed at the hands of the American public, will incite him to con tinued exertion to maintain the favor which he has ac quired.
