deems from tjjr GOOD NIGHT. Good Night, dear Love, good night, The languid flowers their leaves are closing, The Bee is from her toil reposing— Good night, dear Love, good night, Though starry skies are bright, Yet chilly dews are ’ne.ith them weeping, Each httie blade their pearls are steep,ng— Good night, dear Love, good night. Yon orb, whose liquid light The massy trees were deeply drinking, Fast from the da.k blue heaven is sinking— Good night, dear Love, good night. Soon will it leave us quite, Yet that will cause our hearts no sorrow— ’Twill ise like Hope for us to-morrow, Good night, dear Love, good night. And through from my fond sight, Thou, like you gentle moon mua vanish, “ We part to meet again,” shall banish, My sighi, dear Love, good night. Sweet dreams and slumbers light, On angels wings around thee hover, Bless in thy piayers thy absent Lover— Good n g.,t, near Love, good night. EARLY RISING. Did you but know, when bathed in dew, How sweet tae little violet grew, Amidst the thorny brake ; How fragrant blew the ambient air, O’er beds of primroses so fair, Your pillow you’d forsake. Paler than the autumnal leaf, Or the wan hue of pining grief, The cheek of sloth shall grow ; Nor can cosmetic* wash, or ball, Nature’s own tavonte tints recall, If once you let them go. Herrick. YOUNG POST’S PLAINT. God release our dying sister! Beauteous blight hath softly kissed her: Whiter than the wilJ, white roses, Famine in her face discloses Mute submission, patience holy, Passing fair! but passing slowly. Though she said, “You know I’m dying,” In her heart green tiees are sighing ; Not of them hath pain berelt her, In the c,ty, where we left her : “Bring,” she said, “a hedge-tide blossom!” Love shall lay it on her bosom. Elliott. JfiiartUmnj. BKAR HUNTING. We resumed the search for the bears, which we continued until near three o’clock, and until it was beginning to get dusk. At this time, I was to the right of the line, which was proceeding in a westerly direction; when, in the distance to the Northward, and in a part of the forest we had not yet beaten, 1 heard my old dog Paijas giving tongue. I now lost not a moment, but leaving the people, ran as fast as the broken nature of the ground would permit, towards the spot where the dog was challenging, which might be at one hundred and titty or two hundred pa ces distant. This was in a rather thick part of the forest; and in a clu .ip of pines, around the foot of which, though at some paces distant—for he probably remembered the rough treatment he had received on a former occasion— Paijas still kept furiously baying. Though the dog had found the bears, 1 did not, at the first moment, observe the entrance to their den, which was an excavation in the face of a little ri sing, situated between, and partly formed by, the roots of the surround ing trees. But on discovering it, lat once sprung on to the top of the hil lock ; and though, at that time, imme diately over the den, the bears still re mained quiet. O.i my hallooing, they felt so little inclination to leave their quarters, that the old bear simply con tented herself with projecting her snout. At this, from its being the only point exposed to my view, I levelled my rifle, which was then pointed in a per pendicular direction. On reflection, however, I refrained from firing, as I considered that, though I might have smashed the fore part of her head to pieces, there was little chance of my killing her outright. Instead, therefore, of firing whilst in that situation, I stepped (and it certainly was not “ the most prudent step” a man ever took,) with my left foot in advance, directly over her, to the opposite side of the hole, when wheeling about on the in stant, and having then a full view of her head, from which the muzzle of gun was hardly two feet distant, and j my left foot still less, for it was partial ly in the entrance of the den itself, I 1 sent a bullet through her skull. I now ! called loudly to the people, none of j whom, nor even the other dogs, who had been questing to some birds in another part of the forest, had as yet come up—for 1 was rather apprehen sive the cubs might attempt to make their escape. To prevent this, 1 stood for a while over the den, in readiness to give them a warm reception with the but end of my rifle. Butth ee or four minutes elapsed before Jan x’inne, who was to the left of our line, Svensson, and the peasants, made their appear ance : for, strange to sav, though Pai jas had been in Jan Finne’s possession far stveral years, he either did not rec ognize his challenge, or he had not a suspision it was to the bears; and, in consequence, neither he nor the people moved from where I had left them un til they heard my shot. My apprehen sions as to the cubs attempting to es cape, were, however, groundless, for they still continued quiet; at first, in deed, we could see nothing of them, f>r the old bear, as is usual with those animals, when they have young, was lying in the front of the den, and we therefore, almost began to think we had hit upon a bear distinct from those of which we were in search. But on the people introducing a stake, and moving the old bear a little to the side, one of the cubs, and subsequently a second and a third, exhibited themselves, all of which I dispatched, either with my own, or with Jan Finne’s rifle. The work of death being at length comple ted, we drew the bears out of sheir den .—Lloyd, A thrilling scene. Toronto , (U. c.) Aug. 24, 1850. An affair occurred at our exhibition,on . uesday last, of the most intensely exci ting and terrific description, and which, but for the intrepidity, daring, and pre sence of mind of Van Amburgh, would certainly have resulted in the horrible death of yonroid friend, Sig. Hydral go. The circumstances were as follows : At about nine o’clock, Hvdralgo went into the cage, in which had been placed our largest Panther, the Bengal Tiger, the African Lioness, the spotted Leop ard, a Cougar, and the Hyena. The exhibition proceeded, and Hydralgo seemed to have the animals completely under his control, and the audience seemed to be both delighted and inte rested at the daring of the “Tamer.” The performance had progressed nearly to its close, when, from some unac countable cause, the Tiger became sul key and refused to leap. H. struck him with his whip, which so enraged the furious beast, that breaking through all discipline, with one bound, and a yell of fury that terrified the audience, he* rushed upon Hydralgo, and brought him to the floor of the cage. He could do nothing—he had lost all control over the brute. Everything was in confusion, women fainted, others screamed in terror, children cried, and the men seemed paralized. It would have been all up with poor H. had not Van Amburg who was on the other side of the arena, rushed to the spot. In an instant he was in the cage, and in less time than it takes me to write it, he had the enraged animal under his feet in perfect subjection, and released his friend from his perilous situation, fortunately more frightened than hurt. Van Amburg’s presence of mind, his courage and intrepidity, are deserving of all praise, which he received in three hearty cheers from the audience. For the time it lasted, about two or three minutes, it was the most exciting scene 1 ever witnessed. WATER OXEN. We notice the arrival from Constan tinople, per the barque New-World, via Liverpool, of two pair of Asiatic Buffalo Calves, or, as they are general ly called in the books, Water Oxen. These animals have been imported by Dr. Davis for Mr. \\ illiams Mid dleton, who, we understand, some time since, adapted (by wire iencing) a large extent of land for the rearing of Cattle, and in which he has about one thousand head, sustained entirely by the natural resources of the land, not only giving him a large revenue, but adding greatly to t e supply of the veal, butter and beef markets in our city. A pair of these Water Oxen, brought out by Dr. Davis over a year since, are really objects of curiosiiy (and of course of corresponding promise) from their rtmarkable fatness, and this from feeding on the marsh grass on the Doc tor’s farm. Mr. Middleton has in his enclosure, a great deal of this marsh land, now valueless, which, we believe, he is now about to turn to good ac count with these animals. These Water Oxen disregard mud and bogs, and are hence, well adapted, as working Oxen, in such lauds. A great of the day they spend in the Ashley River, and an artificial pond on the Doctor’s farm, with only the nose out of water. They grow to an enormous size, are fair milkers, and very fair as beef cattle. We are thus particular in this no tice, hoping that the planters on our extensive marshes and rivers, where the freshets are so destructive to cattle, will examine into the capacities of these animals, and avail themselves of this facility of importation. The cost of each, including all ex penses, is only about sixty-five dollars, and with the acquaintance of the Doc tor, in the East, can be easily procured. We will take occasion some time hence to report in detail, the success of Doc tor Davis in his attempt at acclimating animals from abroad into this climate. [Charleston Mercury. far tljc (Braplc. GOLD AND SILVER GLASS. Anew method of manufacturing or namental glass has lately been discov ered, which presents the brilliant ap pearance of highly polished gold and silver. This inode of silvering glass is anew invention, which is now being carried out by a company in London. The various articles are blown of two separate thicknesses of glass through out, and the silver is deposited upon the two interior surfaces of the double hollow glass vessel. The silver is de posited from a solution of that metal by the reducing agency of saccharine solutions; in short, the process is entirely, a chemical one. Ihe dou ble hollow vessels are hermetically sealed, and thus the silver deposit is protected from wear and from at mospheric influences. The brilliant silver deposite being seen through the coloured glass, communicates to that substance, in a curiously illusive man ner, the appearance of being entirely formed of gold and silver itself. When the glass is cut, the brilliancy of the silver is heightened ; and, on the other hand, when the glass is ground, the effect of frosted silver is produced. By staining, and the employment of vari ously coloured glasses, the effect is modified in a variety of ways; thus, with certain yellow glasses, the effect of gold is produced ; with deep green and ruby glass, coloured metalic lus tres, equal in effect to the plumage of birds are obtained. As every form in to which glass can be blown is silvered with facility, the extent to which this beautiful invention can be carried is perfectly unlimited. The new process extends to flower vases, chimney orna ments, and, in fact, to every article usually made of glass. Forornaments it presents all the lustrous brilliancy of highly polished gold and silver, at a great reduction in cost, and for imi tation jewelery and illuminations it will far surpass any thing known. In fact, the invention is at present quite in its infancy, and promises soon to fill the houses of the middle classes, usual ly destitute of brilliant ornaments, with cheap articles, presenting all the striking appearance of costly, plate, &c. The Ladies’ Newspaper lately gave several engravings of vases, &c., made on this new principle. ANIMATED HORSE HAIR. Do you want to make your fortune in the philosophical world ? If so you may thank Owen Lloyd for the hap piest opportunity that was ever put in to an aspirant’s hands. You must have heard the vulgar notion that a horse hair, plucked out by the root, and put in water, becomes alive in a few days. The boys at Brathay repeatedly told their mothers it was true, that they had tried it themselves, and seen it tried. Her reply was, show it me and I will believe it. While we were there last week, in came Owen with two of these creatures in a bottle. Words worth was there, and to our utter and j unutterable astonishment did the boys SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. try to convince us that these long thin black worms were their own manufac ture by the old receipt, they lay hold of them by the middle while they writhed like eels, and stripping them with their nails down on each side, acrually lay bare the hor-e hair in the middle, which seemed to serve as the back bone of the creature, or the substra tum of the living matter which had collected round it. Wordsworth and I should both have supposed that it was a collection of aui malculae round the hair, (which, how ever would only be changing the nature of the wonder,) if we could any way have accounted for the motion upon this theory; but the motion was that of a snake. We could perceive no head, but something very like the root of the hair. And for want of glasses could distinguish no parts. The crea ture, or whatever else you may please to call it, is black, or dark brown, and about the girth of a fiddle string. As soon as you have read this, draw upon vour horses tail and mane for half a dozen hairs; be sure they have roots to them ; bottle them separately in water, and when they are alive and kicking, call in Gooch, and make the fact known to the philosophical world. Never in my life was I so astonished as at seeing, what even in the act of seeing, I could scarcely believe, and now almost doubt. If you v erily believe the experiment, as Owen and all his brethren will swear must be the case, you will be able to throw some light upon the origin of your friend the tape worm, and his di abolical family. No doubt you will laugh and disbelieve this, and half sus pect that lam jesting. But, indeed. I have only told you the fact as it occur red ; and you will at once see its whole importance in philosophy, and the use which you and Gooch may derive from it, coming forth with a series of experi ments, and with such deductions as your greyhound sight, and his beagle scent will soon start and pursue. And And if the horse’s hair succeeds, Sir Domine, by parallel reasoning, you know, try one of your own.— Southey's Life and Correspondence. 51 Cnhram €rrrtri) tn jftm. THE TWO TOMKINSES. A little incident occurred the other day, which is to constitute the plot of the next new farce. A zealous politi cian, who is always to the elbows in every well fought contest, entered very warmly into the support of a candidate for the nomination, and in the course of his labours called on Tomkins, who is always liberal, though not quite as ac tive in the support of “the party,” for a contribution in aid of the cause. Tomkins assented forthwith, but not having any tiling out of the bank at the moment, promised to send it. In the course of a few days, a gentleman called at the residence of our political friend, and in his absence left forty dollars, saying it was from Mr. Tom kins. The forty dollars was according ly scattered, with sundry other sums contributed for the same patriotic pur pose, where it would do most good for the “common country ” So far so good. But there was another Tom kins in town, to whom our politician had loaned, a week or two previously, the exact sum of forty dollars. Meeting him a day or two ago, the subject of the loan came up—Tomkins remarking— “Oh, Claude, you got your forty dollars all right, 1 suppose?” “ No, 1 didn’t.” “ Why, I sent it to you.” “You did —when?” “ Why, last Monday. I sent it to your house.” “ You don’t say so—that was your forty dollars, was it ?” “ Certainly it was.” Away went our friend Claude to Tompkins the first. “ Oh, Tompkins, did you send me forty dollars the other day?” “ Forty dollars ! no; what for?” “Why, you promised something for the cause.” “Oh, yes; well I meant to have sent you a five or a ten, but it escaped my memory, and as the thing is over now, I’m that much in pocket, ain’t I?” “You are, that’s a fact,” said Claude, at the same time remarking to himself, as he walked away, “and I’m forty dollars out.” A WEBSTER-BOY. The W ebsterian aphorism, “ I take no step backwards,” is becoming a pet phrase with the people, and, like other notable sayings, is beginning to he ap plied in ways quite foreign to its origi nal signification. The New-Orleans Delta tells of a case in point A Yan kee from the Old Bay State—“ a Bun ker Hiller, and nothing shorter,” as he declared himself, who had strayed down South, applied to a Terpsichorean professor in the Crescont City, to induct him into the mysteries of the “poetry of motion”—or, in his own words, to “learn him to dance them Polkas and other foreign fixins!” The terms were made known and agreed to, and the pupil was placed on the floor to learn the first lessons of “advance and retire.” “ Look-e-here, Mister,” said the young scion of Massachusetts, “I may as well tell you before we begin, that I go my death for Dan Webster—for Old Black Dan. He is a real Massa chusetts Monument in that ere Senate, l tell you; and if you have any South ern prejudice against him, I may as well clear out right off; for I can’t stand it, no how.” The professor assured him he had not, and the lesson commenced. The pupil was first instructed how to make his obesanee to his partner; next the “positions,” and next to ad vance and retire. Professor: “Advance, one, two, three, dal, al, al. Very good, retire now — same—one, two, three, dal, al, al.” Instead of retiring, however, the pupil stood at the point to which he had advanced, as if he were transfixed to it. Professor: “What are you about, sir? retire —tread the same steps back wards—just as you advanced.” Pupil: “No, I’ll be darn’d if Ido ; 1 told you 1 was a Webster-boy, and I ain’t any thing else—l believe in Old Dan. Now he has said that he ain’t agoin’ to take no step backwards , and I’m blamed if 1 will, any how you can fix it —good mornin’, stranger. “Saying this, he picked up his hat, placed is on his head, and eloped. GLIDDON’S MUMMY AGAIN. Mr. Gliddon, in the Boston Tran script, explains how he was mistaken in the gender of his mummy, and con fesses that he was mistaken , not the mummy-makers. He argues also that his mummy was a high-born Egyptian priest,named GO T-THOTAI-Al. NKI I, and that he lived in the 19th century before Christ, or some 2700 years ago. He has not yet procured a translation of the inscription on the papyrus scroll, found on his mummy. Our special te legraphic correspondent in Boston as sures us it is as follows, the message having come by the House Printing telegraph: “ Wh-enyan-ke-el-ect-ure-rsst-inny-du sta-nd-str-ipm-ef-ora■ nexh-ibition i l-lsho wthe-mcent-uriesc-antb-epie-rce-db-yee-nt j h-esha-rpesty-ank-eev-isio-nilh-sh-owthes [ emush-ro-omsag-estha-twetheb-ansh-av-es | omes-ec-retsh-idde-nth-atca-ntbes-oun-ded i toth-eir-dep-thsbyev-engre-aterb-or-es-th-a -ng-lidd-on. GOT-THOTHI-A UNKH. P. S.—The compositor, in putting • his mysterious inscription in type, has ; discovered that, by a proper division of the words, it reads as follows : When Yankee lecturers stir my dust, And strip me for an exhibition, I'll show them centuries can’t lie pierced By e’en the sharpest Yankee vision. I’il show these mushroom sages that We Thebans have some secrets hidden, That can’t be sounded to their depths, By even greater bores than Gliddon. GOT-THOTHI-AUNKH. HeaMngs at Honiara. “ Well, it’s no use talking,” as the boy said to his deaf daddy. “’Tis false,” as the girl said, when her beau told her she had beautiful hair. If sedentary habits are so bad for health, how comes it that oysters thrive so ? Why is a minister like a locomotive! We have to look out for him “when the bell rings.” Why are a handsome young lady’s lips like a persimon ? Because the more you taste them the more they draw. Somebody who has evidently been abroad a good deal, says that “ if an ass goes travelling, he will not come home a horse.” Every lady ought to know that fruit stains may be readily removed from linen or cotton, simply by immersing the article, before being wet in suds, in clear boiling water. The funny editor of the St. Louis Reveille , in speaking of the weather on the 9th ult., says the mercury stood for some time at 100 degrees, and gives his readers the gratifying intelligence that a “thaw” may soon be expected. The Arabs allow a man to divorce himself from a wife who does not make good bread. Were such a law in our country, half the young married ladies, we fear, would be in danger of single blessedness. A young lady says they may talk as much as they please about the virtues of the galvanic ring, but, for her part, she believes that the wedding ring is the most potent cure for all young la dies. “ Illustrated with cuts,” said a young urchin, as he drew his pocket knife across the leaves of his Grammar. “ Illustrated with cuts,” reiterated the schoolmaster, as he drew his cane across the back of tbe young urchin. “ Pomp, was yer ever drunk ?” “ No, I was intoxicated wid ardent spirits once, and dat’s nuff for dis dar kie. De Lord bless you Coesar, my head felt as if it was an outhouse,’ while all de niggers in de world appeared to be splittin’ wood in it.” “Do you believe that?” asked an old crony of Mrs. Partington. “Lasakes! relieve it? why sartain. It's in the papers , same as if it was gospel, in my destination,” and it was some time before the good lady could recover from her wonderment at the strangeness of the question. An old Jew, being in an out of the way ale house, treated himself to some ham and eggs, but just as he was about to raise the forbidden morsal to his mouth, a clap of thunder startled him. He dropped the fork, saying— “ Mine Gott! all dis fuss chust because old Moshes is eating a little bit of ba con.” Satirical.— A little fellow, who had “begun to learn Latin,” occasionally mixed his mother tongue with a spice of the dead language ; it thus chanced, as one day he was reading aloud to his master- that he astonished him by the translation ; “Vir, a man ; gin, a trap ; vir-gin, a man-trap.” “You young rogue,” exclaimed the pedagogue, “your father has been help ing you with your lessons.” “ Mine fren, have you seen von lit tle trunk, what I left to-morrow, as I will come from ze steamboat bv ze ho tel ?” “ I did not, Monsieur, and expect to do so for the remainder of the day.” “ By gar, if he gets stole, I will kill ze rascal what will take him till he choke; —Sacre ! vat a countrys !” “ Hanse, where was you born ?” “ On de Halderbarack.” “ What—always?” “ Yaw, and before to.” “ llow old a'’e you then?” “ When de old school house is built I was two weeks more nor a year, what is painted red as you go home mit yer back behind yer —on die right hand side by de old blacksmith shop what stands where it was burnt next year, will be two weeks.” Sheridan being on a parliamentary committee, one day entered the room, as all the members were seated, and ready to commence business ; perceiv ing no empty seat, he bowed, and look ing round the table with a droll expres sion of countenance, said : “ Will any gentleman move that I may take the chair V HOG AX <fc THOMPSON, WHOLESALE BOOKSELLERS AND STATIONERS, No. 30 North Fourth street, Philadelphia.

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 or Label, his mode ot 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 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 ol which has caused it to be imitated, and the number adopt eil 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 Pen? are not made by him, although asserted to be. \n experience of thirty years has enabled Mr. Gillott to bring his Steel Pens to the highest state or perfec- TION, and the liberal patronage which he lias long enjoyed at the handsof theAmerican public,will incite him to con tinued exertion to maintain the (Hvor which he has ac quired.
