deems from tlje |)nrts. From the International. friendship. BY WILLIAM C. RICHARDS. How oft the burdened heart would sink In fathomless despair, But for an angel on the brink— In mercy standing there: An angel bright with heavenly light— And born of loftiest skies, Who shows her face to mortal race, In Friendship’s holy guise. Upon the brink of dark despair, With smiling lace she stands ; And to the victim shrinking there, Outspreads her eager hands: In accents low that sweetly How To his awakening ear, She woos him back —his death ward track, Toward Hope’s effulgent sphere. Sweet Friendship! let me daily give Thanks to my God tor thee ! Without thy smiles t'were death to live. And joy to cease to be: Oh, bitterest drop in woe’s full cup— To have no friend in need ! To struggle on, with grief alone— Were agony indeed! From the London Literary Gazette. THE HUSBAND’S SONG. BY CHARLES SWAIN. Rainy and rough sets the day, There’s a heart beating for somebody: I must be up and away— Somebody’s anxious for somebody. Thrice has she been to the gate— Thrice hath she listen’d lor somebody ; ’Midst the night, stormy and late, Somebody’s waiting lor somebody! There’ll be a comforting fire— There’ll be a welcome lor somebody ; One, in her neatest attire, Will look to the table for somebody. Though the star’s fled from the west, There is a star yet for somebody, Lighting the home he loves best— Warming the bosom of somebody ! There’ll be a coat o’er the chair, There will be slippers for somebody ; There’ll be a wife’s tender care— Love’s fond embracement for somebody. There’ll be the little one’s charms— Soon ihev’ll be waken’d for somebody ; When I have both in my arms, Oh, but how 7 blest will be somebody ! Tis r Bianca, let Me pay the debt I owe thee for a kiss Thou lentest to me. And I to thee Will render ten for this. If thou wilt say Ten will not pay, For that so rich a one. I’ll clear the sum, If it should come Unto a million. By this I guess Os happiness Who had a little measure, He must of right, To the utmost might, Make payment for his pleasure. Herrick. for tlic CAUSES OE RAIN. Heat and water are the fruitful pa rents of winds and clouds. When aqueous vapor is precipitated in rain or snow, heat that was latent becomes again sensible, and by increasing the capacity ot the air to hold water in the form of vapor, prevents a disastrous deluge of this abundant element in na ture. Ihe laws which restrain the pre cipitation of water from the clouds are no less curious than those which cause it to rain at all. The atmosphere must approach saturation before it can rain, and it usually happens that the quanti ties which will fall on a given area, one hundred feet above the ground, and on the earth, are unequal. Large drops, in falling through many feet of dry air, become smaller by constant evapora tion, and may be wholly dissipated be fore they reach the earth. On the other hand, quite small drops formed in cold regions, high in the air, con stantly condense more vapor in falling through a saturated atmosphere, and will be many times larger when they reach the ground than at their starting point. To illustrate the production of rain, let us suppose that a current of air at 70 deg. temperature, saturated with moisture, meets and mingles with another current, also saturated, but having a heat of 50 deg. Now, if the atmosphere at the mean temperature of 00 deg. had a capacity to hold wa ter as an invisible vapor, equal to the mean of 70 deg. and 50 deg., it is ob vious that no precipitation would take place. But such is not the fact. The quantity ol water held in air heated from 00 to 70 degs., cannot be contain ed in that heated from 50 to 00 degs. In other words, whatever cools air sa turated with moisture, causes a cloud, dew, mist, or rain. [lhe above is a short extract from the Agricultural Report of the Patent Office, presented to Commissioner Ew bank by Dr. Lee, who was appointed for this purpose. The Report is not yet officially published, but we hope it soon will be, for it is one of the most able and valuable Reports we have ever read, and will be of immense bene fit to our farmers— Scientific American. The Season of Fruits. —The har vest of Southern fruits has come. Deli cious peaches, pears of exquisite deli cacy, apples of domestic growth, can telopes of richest fragrance and rarest flavour, watermelons unsurpassed when frozen by surrounding piles of ice, figs of every colour and taste, pomegran ates abounding with nectared juices, are seen at almost every place of public resort, lhe South is truly unsurpassed by the abundance and delicacy of her summer fruits; and yet, but little la bour is expended in cultivating or im proving them. Northern and tropical productions may be made to ripen here together, if proper labour and care are used. Mr. Affleck, the author of the admirable letter in our agricultural column, has no doubt but the whole family of Northern plums may be suc cessfully grafted upon the stocks which are indigenous to the South.— La. State Republican. V aluable Mineral Paint Disco vered.-—On the west side of Agawam * n (} st Springfield, near the rails and Factories, a quarry of stone material, suitable for paint, has recently been discovered and purchased bv Skinner & IlaneoY r rw~. • J • . , , x - Ihe premises con sist ol a high bluff of four or five acres, on the top of which Springfield may be P ai"b s f® n * ‘lhe tract contains an inexhaustible supply of the material, which is a soft, reddish brown stone, with some veins of blue, which, when exposed to the air, slacks or softens, and crumbles. To prepare it for mix ing with oil, like lead, it is first w ashed, then ground. Nothing of the kind be sides this has yet been found in this vicinity. According to Dr. Jackson’s analysis, it contains a larger portion of the hardening qualities than any paint material yet known. It is consequently more impervious to fire and water. — We have seen some specimens of it, painted on wood and dry, and it looks well. The cost is not half as much as lead, and it is thought to be more dura ble, beside its protection against fire and water. Should this material prove to be what is now believed of it, by those who have examined it, the result will be fortunate for our community, and a source of profit to its enterpris ing proprietors. Similar discoveries at the west have been already favourably introduced to the public; but this one in West Springfield presents, as we have said, more substantial qualities for the use to which it is found adapted, than any other discovery of the kind yet made known. Gout. —In a recently published trea tise on gout, by Dr. Toulmin, he re commends strongly the use of what he terms a Thermrclin , or hot-air bed, which, being air-tight, and the patient placed therein, causes profuse perspi ration, and, as the writer argues, is the only certain cure for gout. This pro cess, combined with cold bathing, pure air, moderate exercise, and a little me dicine (but on no ’account the so-called specific, eolehicum), w ill effectually pre serve the patient against any future at tacks. Mr. Toulmin is also a strong advocate for high and dry localities as residences for gouty individuals, and in stances Blackheath, where many of his patients have been completely cured. Paine’s Gas Discoveked by Anoth er Man. —The Pittsburgh Gazette makes the following statement: “ Nlr. Solomon Sutter, a highly re spectable mechanic of Alleghany City, has, we understand, discovered a me thod of decomposing water by mechan ical means, and without the use of a galvanic battery, at a merely nominal expense. lie made this discovery by mere accident, in the pursuit of his bu siness as a blacksmith, and was first made aware of the fact by the hydrogen evolved from the water exploding, though fortunately without doing much damage. Sugar Cane in the High Lands of the South. —The Baton Rouge Adver tiser says: “Are the highlands adapted to the growth and culture of cane ? It is no longer an experiment. Instead of going to the low-lands to open a plan tation, the former are now selected as combining several very important ad vantages —security from overflow with out the expense of building levees, is the first and most obvious. The cane does not grow so large as on the coast, but makes equally as good sugar —the juice requiring less boiling and a less quantity is required to make the same quantity of sugar. So that all things considered, the balance is in favour of the highlands. The last two years have brought a vast quantity of this land into cultivation, more, perhaps, than for any previous ten years. In this section, the sugar mill is rapidly taking the place of the cotton gin; the unoc cupied lands are coming into cultiva tion, and even the worn out and aban doned cotton fields are found well adapted to the raising of this crop. [S cientific American. 11 tailings at llnniiaiit. An elderly lady has imbibed such an extreme horror of Popery, that she has renounced the Cardinal virtues. Starch up, brush your whiskers, and lay in a plentiful supply of soft non sense, and the girls will call you a nice young man. Soon after the battle of Lobau, a wit observed that Buonaparte must now be in funds, for he had lately re ceived a check on the hank of the Da nube. “Julius, are you convalescent dis morning?” “ No, 1 was convalescent yesterday, but 1 took medicine last night and worked it off.” A lady in this vicinity, on consulting a neighbour on the loss of her son, was answered iu tears. “If Billy’s grand mother is in heaven, 1 know she won’t see Billy abused.” When you see a gentleman at mid night, sitting on the stoop in front of his house combing his hair with the door-scraper, you may conclude that he has been out at an evening party. “I and protl er Ilonce, and two oder togs, wash out hunting next week, and we drove nine wood-chucks into a stone heap, and kilt ten out of de nine before tey cot in.” The “man with a shirt collar” has come to an untimely end, according to the Milwaukie Advertiser. Visiting that city, he indulged his ‘collar’ in too much starch, and while turning a corner, it cut his throat. “This is really the smallest horse 1 ever saw,” said a countryman, on view ing a Shetland pony. “Indade, now,” replied his Irish companion, “ but I’ve seen one as small as two of him.” A lady reading that a man had been sentenced to six months hard labour for dog stealing, observed to a friend with a shudder, ‘Gracious, my love, what would certain of our sex have to endure for entrapping puppies.’ Mrs. Partington wants to know if printers can’t find anything better to publish than that “pork is quiet.”— “ Why,” said the old lady, “our pork is always quiet during such hot weather. You can’t scarcely drive them out of the mire.” In a German advertisement for the sale of the machinery of a theatre, is a N. B. “To be sold at the same time, thirty two good substantial old ghosts , with a very fine new devil , a striking likeness of Buonaparte.” SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. (frlrrtir af tbit.. From Noah’s Weekly Messenger and Times. THE GOBLIN TELEGRAPH. When first the lightning’s stylus traced • Its characters of wonder, We stood amazed as folks conversed A thousand miles asunder ; But what are lightning-messages From Buffalo to Natchez, Compared with news from Kingdom Come By underground dispatches! The goblin telegraph’s at work!— A hollow kind of rapping, As if the ghosts of publicans Were empty barrels tapping, Is heard in old Connecticut— Perhaps for her demerits. In showing by her license law Antipathy to spirits. But no—that cannot be the cause; For in our western cities The operators down below Are bothering the committees; And unbelief, however bold, To superstition truckles, As ghosts their strong impressions make With telegraphic knuckles. Some sneering editors at first, Deemed these revealings fables, But when they went to Rochester The spectres turned the tables. Some messages from Heaven were sent, Ami some from regions warmer, And lately sundry knocks were heard From Knox the great reformer. The apostolic hierarchy Have made new revelations, And criminals have got mixed up In saintly conversations, And sundry sinners down below, As questioners and repliers, Have proved themselves sans doute to be The most consumed, liars. Where it will stop Heaven only knows— The lines are fast extending, And messages both east and west The spirit-world is sending. ’Twas once said, “ Dead men tell no tales;” But now a murdered man, sir, If asked who knocked him on the head, Knocks back the name in answer. BOOTH THE ACTOR. He had been playing a very success ful engagement at one of the western theatres and his benefit night had ar rived. In anticipation of the amount of dimes he would linger, he “tarried” a little longer than was safe over his customary “tod,” and when he reached the theatre had no insignificant amount of “ brick ” in his castor. However, the play went on, and proceeded to the fifth act, when at a shrill signal, back slided the front scene, and discovered Richard in his tent, taking that troubled sleep which was to be his last on earth. If it was to be his last sleep it was evi dent that the hunch-back tyrant intend ed that it should be a sound one, for the ghosts of murdered Edward, Cla rence, Hastings and Queen Anne pass ed in succession, pouring upon his guilt laden soul their damning curses without his giving the slightest symptoms of being disturbed. And when the ghost of butchered Buckingham had added his curse and passed on, instead of rising from his couch in bewildered terror, and exclaiming, as he should have done: “ Give me another hoMe—bind up my wounds. Have mercy, Jesu!—Soft; I did but dream,” &e. King Richard to the surprise of the audience and dismay of the manager, still slept soundly on, when entered Rad cliffe, exclaiming— “ My lord —” K. Richard —“Who’sthere!” (spring ing from his couch, and rushing on him with his sword.) Rat.—“Ratcliffe, my lord ; ’tis I the early village cock,” (when becoming alarmed, he forgot his part, and repeat ed, “’tis 1, the early village cock,” and stopped.) K. Richard. —“ Why don't you crow then /” A yell, like the roar of a young earthquake went up from the pit that will live in the memory of the oldest inhabitant; the manager fainted, the lights went out, and the curtain fell. FREE TRANSLATION. “ Well, now', you’ve been to college two years; 1 supppose you can translate Latin some, can’t you ?” “Yes, I can translate anything.” “ Can you ? Well, what does this mean— Poetu nascitur not Jit “Oh ! that means, a nasty poet is not fit!” “ Not tit for what ?” “ You did’nt quote the whole— pro decentibus societate —not fit for decent society!” “Ah! indeed! and what does ne sutor mean ?” “If you in popping the question should drop on your knees, you would be a knee suitor .” “ Very good. Now what is jam satis “Oh ! that’s what the fellow r said in a crowd, he meant he was jammed enough!"’ “ Well, this college lamin’ is a great thing. 1 s’pose you did’nt know that 1 can translate some myself?” “ No ! can you ?” “ Oh yes!— clam et palam you know what that means, eh ?” “ Not exactly ; what is it ?” “ That means, eat clams by the pail ful!” “ You may take my hat!” ——■—♦ A Dose for an Apothecary.— Three small boys went into an apothe cary’s store a few days since, when the youngest urchin cried out: — “ A cent’s worth of rock candy.” “ Don’t sell a cent’s worth,” w as the reply. The boys adjourned outside and held a consultation and then entered, all smiling. “ Do you sell three cents’ worth ?” “ Yes, I will sell three cents’ worth.” “Well, we havn’t got them,” was the quick response, as the boys left the store. A Civil Request —An old woman observing a sailor going by her doorand supposing it to be her son Billy, cried out to him, “Billy where is my cow gone? The sailor replied in a con temptuous manner, “ Gone to the d—l, for what 1 know.” “Well as you are going that way,” said the old woman, “ 1 wish you would just let down the bars.” Boz versus Dickens. —We were much amused yesterday by an anec dote related of an exiled Hungarian, who, with a very limited knowledge of our language, endeavoured to read the title page of one of Dickens’ novels. After the word “Boz,” followed “Dick ens” in a parenthesis, which he thought must be the pronunciation of the word before it. “ B-o-z, Dickens; B-o-z, Dickens,” he repeated in utter aston ishment. “Oh, I will give it all up. It isth no use to try and learn von such language as vil make B-o z spell Dick ens !” —Springfield Republican. I uf RAPID ACT OF ASSMANSHIR There is at present such a glut of the balloon market, that the aeronauts are jostling each other in the air, and the veteran Green’s car is stopping the way of the car of the veteran Graha a. A mere act of simple straightforward bal looning has, however, lost its effect on the public mind, which refuses to be aroused by anything less exciting than an aeronaut on horseback, who runs a fearful risk of being sent on the same journey that a beggar is said to be likely to take, when he turns equestrian. Last week the veteran Green was an nounced to ascend in a balloon on horseback; and when the evening came a poor little pony was brought forward, with his legs stuck into sockets—like a couple of pairs of candlesticks —and the veteran, supporting his feet upon a pile of ballast-bags, ascended in the balloon with the animal between his legs, but resting none of his weight on the diminutive quadruped. The whole atiiiir was a piece of child’s play, which would have been much more complete and far less disagreeable, if the sensible advice of Mr. Norton, the Lambeth Magistrate, had been taken, and a wooden horse had been used instead of a real pony. If the veteran Green must have his hobby, let it be a hobby in the strict sense of the word, and he will then spare the feelings of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to the Dumb Species. The air is not the proper element for equestrian performances, nor ought an attempt to be made to get up a rivalry to Astley’s in the skies above the suburbs. THE JEWISH OATH QUESTION A CENTURY HENCE. (From Posterity’s History of England.) The singular inconsistency which marked the conduct of our ancestors during a period which has deservedly been styled the Age of Humbug, was strikingly exemplified, just a century ago, in the course of the course of the struggle of Baron Rothschild to obtain possession of his seat in the House of Commons. The opponents to the J ew ish claim to participate in the Legisla ture, first resisted the demand of the Baron to be sworn on the Old Testa ment. Defeated on this point, they next objected to his omission, from the prescribed adjuration, of the words “On the true faith of a Christian.”— They thus refused to recognize the va lidity of an oath unaccompanied by the profession of a creed which, if plain gospel is its exponent, forbids all oaths whatever; they disallowed a request to be sworn on the book which alone contained their own justification of swearing; and required as essential to the juratory act that it should be per formed on that very volume which seems expressly to prohibit it. Peel and Wordsworth. —Statues and monuments of many kinds are to be erected to the memory of Peel. We rejoice thereat; and, rejoicing, wish the number doubled. But how’ about Wordsworth? No monument to him—or only one at most ? Shelley has called poets “the unacknowledged legislators of mankind.” Wordsworth has been a most potent legislator; something more than M. P. for Rydal Mount. Nevertheless, as only being a legislator in print, and not in Parlia ment, he is a legislator unacknowledg ed. Lord John proposes no statue for him. The Statesman’s Dream.—Aider man Humphrey, in the course of a de bate on the new’ House of Commons, said, that in consequence of its limited accommodation, Members would often go out to take a nap in the Library. We are quite sure that no Member anxious for a nap will take the trouble to go out into the Library. He will merely keep his seat during a debate, and exhausted nature w ill soon find re pose. Places not Wanted. —By an act lately passed there are certain appoint ments to be made of persons who are to be styled “Directors” of various prisons. The salary is good, but there is such a horror of the very name of “ Director,” with the odium and liabili ties attached to the office since the bursting of the rail-way bubble, that it is feared no one will be found willing to accept the office of Director of any thing. BALLOON SCIENTIFIC PREPARATIONS FOR THE ENSUING WEEK- Monday. The veteran Green will ascend on the veteran tortoise (aged 11)7 years), lately arrived at the Zoo logical Gardens. Tuesday. Mr. Barry, the Clown, will mount on a donkey, and sing “Hot Codlins” at the altitude of 600 feet. Wednesday. The veteran Green will, in the character of an old witch, mount on a broom, and dance the witches’ dance in the air. Thursday. Lieutenant Gale will dis guise himself as the Courier of St. Pe tersburg, and ascend on the backs of six blind horses. Friday. Mrs. Graham, or Madame Wharton, will make her ascent on horseback as Lady Godiva. Saturday. Grand race between six balloons with six horses, and six bal loons with six donkeys. N. B.—None but English donkeys allowed to com pete. Hear! Hear! —We don’t wonder at the delay in getting through the Ap peal business in the House of Lords, notwithstanding the activy of Lord Brougham, for in that house everything is very hard of hearing. “Terms — cash only.” —The debates last week contained a discussion upon “ turnpike trusts.” This sounds rather like a misnomer; for we always thought that a turnpike was one of those things that insisted upon ready money, and never gave any trust. It is the Cause. It is the Cause. — Many persons are continually asking the cause why there is absolutely no thing doing in rail ways. Our answer is, that is impossible there can be any thing doing when everybody has been done. lIOGAN At THOMPSON, WHOLESALE BOOKSELLERS AND STATIONERS, _Vw. 30 North Fourth street, Philadelphia.

That all genuine packages or boxes of Joseph Gil- Lott’s Pens have a sac simile of his signature on the reverseside. None other are genuine.

Joseph Gillott would turtlier advise the public that, in all cases when 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. experience of thirty years has enabled Mr. Gillottto bring his Steel Pens to the HIGHEST state or perkec tion, and the liberal patronage which he has long enjoyed at the hands of theAmerican public,will incite him to con tinued exertion to maintain the favor which he has ac quired.
