(gnus from tjir ports. THE LADY'S YES. BV ELIZABETH BAKKETT BARRETT. Ye^>!” J answered you lust night; “No !” this morning, Si , I say! Colours seen bv Candle-light, Will not look the same by day. When the tabors played their best, Lamps above, and laughs below— Lore me sounded like a jest, Fit for Yes or fit for No ! Call me false, or call me free— Vow, whatever light may shine, No man on thy face shall see, Any grief lor change on mine. Yet the sin is on us both — Time to dance is not to woo— Woer light makes fickle troth— Scorn of me recoils on you! Learn to win a lady’s faith Nobly, as the thing is high ; Bravely, as for life and death— With a loyal gravity. Lead her from the festive boards, Point her to the starry skies, Guard her, by your truthful words, Pure from courtship’s flatteries. By your truth she shall be true — Ever true, as wives of yore— And her Fes, once said to you, Shall be Yes for evermore. THE KEY OF THE COFFIN. FROM THE GERMAN OF JEAN PAUL. A mother knelt o’er her loved one’s tomb, And her eyes were red with weeping, For her cherished flower, in its morning bloom, Was now in the cold earth sleeping. The coffin’s key was in her hand, In her heart the deepest sadness; And her spirit yearned for the better land, Where grief would be turned to gladness. •‘I will keep the key,” she calmly said, “Os thy dwelling dark and lonely, So that none thy rest shall ever invade, But the mother who loved thee only. She turned her eyes to Heaven’s bright dome, Where the silent stars were beaming, And her spirit caught in child-like tone, These words of holiest meaning— “ Throw away the key, O mother dear, For the coffin holds not thy child, He has risen from earth and dwelleih here, For the Savior upon him smiled.” far fjir |3raplr. New Mode of raising Potatoes.— The Germans have recently taken a particular fancy to raising potatoes. The following is their method of pro ducing the greatest good for the great est number:—“ The potato is planted whole, without any preparation, only allowing a little more space than usual. When the plants have attained the height of the hand, they are also clean ed and hoed as usual. When, howev er, the time for drawing up the earth around them has arrived, the following process is adopted instead :—“The green stalks are divided and laid down by the hand on the flat soil, in the form of the spokes of a wheel, and cov ered with the neighboring earth—the operation being readily performed by placing the foot on the plant. Some weeks later, the leaves begin to push through the soil, when they are again laid down and covered with four inches ot earth. Thisis all the labour required, and occupies about the same time as the ordinary hoeing-up process, but it produces six-times more fruit. The subterranean stalks are covered with potatoes, in the form of a wreath or chaplet.” Tomato Preserves. —Prepare a syr up by clarifying sugar, melted over a slow fire, with a little water, by boil ing it until no scum rises, or good mo lasses may be clarified by adding eggs, boiling, and carefully skimming. Take the tomatoes while green, put them in cold syrup, with one orange sliced, to every two pounds of tomatoes. Some, when superior preserves are wanted, add fresh lemons sliced, and boil with the tomatoes, a few peach leaves and powdered ginger in bags. Tomatoes, when ripe, make a fine preserve, pealed and treated as above; but the fruit is apt to fall to pieces in the process of preserving, consequently, more care is required when it is desirable to pre vent this. Effect of Light on Plants. —lt is known that the solar light, by favour ing the assimilation of carbonic acid gas in plants, gives them the faculty of becoming green, and of forming the volatileand aromatic principles. These conditions are neeessary to their flow ering and fructification, insomuch that ripe seeds have never been obtained from plants kept in darkness. If, on the contrary, bleached plants are ex posed to the sun for three, four or five hours, they become as intensely green as if they had been reared in the sun. Vegetables reared in the open air be come pale, and fade in two or three hours, it they are transported to a dark place ; but those which, after growing in the shade, have been exposed for some time to the sun, can no longer support the privation of light; and water, impregnated with camphor or essential oil, which is highly favorable to vegetation in other circumstances, does not prevent them from fading and perishing. Improved Candlestick.— Mr. James Manning, of Middletown Connecticut, has invented a very useful improve ment on Candlesticks, for which he has taken measures to secure a patent, and which will be found to be exceedingly useful. It is a small top plate with an eliptical hole in it, and this slides round so as to bring the greater or less diam eter of the hole of the plate in a line with the opening down in the shank. To look at the candlestick, it would not be noticed as dithering in any manner from those in common use, but it can firmly retain candles of any thickness, the long eights and short sixes equally well. It is a very good and simple im provement on candlesticks. Messrs. M . & B. Douglas, of the above place, are the assignees.— Sci. American. M onderful Machine.— Tyler Da- V 1 jn - sa ys theClncinnatti Commercial ', yestei ay, showed us a wonderful spe <imen ot aitistic ingenuity, which came ou as near to perfection in its immi- Lin i n , atUreaS k is for hu man skill to approach. It was a small box, containing a delicate combination ot machinery similar to that of a watch which when wound up, caused a beau tiful little bird, with the richest plu mage, to start out from the lid, and af ter warbling sweetly for a while, return to its place, the lid closing after it. The bird seemed endowed with life, moving its bili to the time of its notes and fluttering as it sang. It was man ufactured in Geneva, and cost one hun dred guineas, or SSOO. Fumigating Mixture. —Two ounces of salt dried, two ditto of nitre. Mix, and add to them in a stoneware basin or plate, a half ounce of water, and the same quantity of good sulphuric acid. Remove k 11 polished metal articles from the room, as the vapour would rust them, and close all doors and win dows. To procure more advantage, when the process appears to cease, place the basin on hot sand. Cheap Stew-Soup. —Two pounds of beef, four onions, ten turnips, half a pound of rice, a large handful of pars ley, thyme, and savoury ; some pep per and salt, eight quarts of water. Cut the beef in slices, and after it has boiled some time, cut it still smaller. The whole should boil gently, about two hours, on a slow fire. If fuel be scarce, it may be stewed all night in an oven, and warmed up next day. You may add oatmeal, and potatoes. Grey peas will be a great addition. [Mrs. Hannah More. Scouring Drops for removing Grease.— lst. Alcohol, pure, 6 oz., camphor, 2 oz.; rectified essence of lem on, 8 oz. 2d. Cam phene, 3 oz.; essence of lem on. 1 oz., mix.

The Bull-fights in Paris. —It is said that Spanish Bull Fights are about to be introduced into Paris from Spain, and the journals are talking of the pro ject as one likely to be very attractive from its novelty. Bull Fights may be novel enough on the other side of the water, but they are no novelty here, which may account for their being so unattractive, for Smithfield and its av enues, where our London Bull Fights take place twice a week, are avoided by nearly all who are not compelled to re sort to them. If the Parisians really want to have a specimen of Bull Fight ing, let some of the French excursion ists—whom we rejoice to se among us—take a walk some Monday morn ing to Smithfield market, and there they will witness quite enough to initi ate them in the sport, which it is said, Paris is prepared to patronize. We have occasionally found ourselves o bliged to take suddenly the part of a piradone with the point of our umbrel la, and once or twice we have thought it prudent to resort to the banderillos , by brandishing our pocket handker chief, in a mischievous looking animal’s eyes in order to divert his attention from some more precious object. If Bull E ighting is to be turned into a public amusement, let it be done in the regular way, by the conversion of Smithfield into an arena, but a state of things which compels a quiet passenger to become every now and then a mata dore malgre lui is rather disagreeable. Science Head over Heels.— A Newspaper report tells us that an en thusiast attending a meeting of the British Association, desirous of testing the merits of a newly invented article, called a “Safety Stocking,,’ plunged headlong from the Newhaven Pier, re lying only upon the virtue of the Stocking in question. His life was thus allowed to hang, not perhaps on a sin gle thread, but upon a small quantity of cotton. We do not see how safety stockings can be of any use in water, unless to an enthusiastic savant, to whom it may be immaterial whether he is standing upon his head or his heels—and it is pretty clear that with a pair of hose not calculated to sink, the heels of the wearer, when in the water, must have been uppermost. It is to be regretted that there was no Pons Asinorum at Newhaven, from which the leap could have been made, for this was all that could have been required to complete the character of the experiment. ■ From a Very Old Friend. —Dear Punch, I say, old fellow, —you don’t appear to have any regular Poet’s Cor ner on your territories. However, 1 suppose you know the original one somewhere in Westminster; and for your information, there is another just begun at the corner of Queen’s Square, Bloomsbury, not to commemmorate dead poet’s but to show the talents of real live ’uns. The following has been perpetrated within a few yards of me, on a black board and white letters:— “ There is no thoroughfare At the north end of this square.” Pray, stop this. I am, dear Punch , The Queen Square Pump. Policemen in the East. —lt seems to be the destiny of the Police force to be kept continually ‘ moving on.’ They are themselves the pioneers in obeying the directions they are always giving to others. Recent advices in form us of Policemen having been es tablished at Constantinople, where the British Bull’s-eye will henceforth throw a light on the mysteries of crime, and the British truncheon smash the turban of Turkish turbulence. Thedrunkand incapable Mufti will now find himself compelled to ‘move on,’ and the hard and uncomfortable stretcher will be the fate of the luxurious Ottoman, who has been living, ‘not wisely, but to well.’ A Novelty in Travelling. —The Edinburgh newspapers contains adver tisements of “Cheap Excursions to Lon don and ‘back again.’ We do not think the latter part of the advertisement will be any great temptation to Scotchmen to join the excursion, however cheap. Now if the advertisement had said “ Cheap Excursions to London, and not to come back again,” it would have been much more to the tastes and hab its of travelling Scotchmen; and we doubt if the Railway Company would have been able to provide sufficient carriages for the extraordinary number of applicants. SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. Too Horrible to Contemplate.— If a lady who hesitates is lost, what must it then be for a lady who stam mers or stutters! Why are the “Parliamentary Trains” so called. From the extreme slowness with which every thing moves upon them. (Brlrrtir nf Wit.. From the Horn of Mirth. LATINGLISH. BY W. F. WIGHTMAN, Puerstetit on a fence, Caneus camiina aloud, Et in regular cadence, Et colens he ne’er had plowed. Canit of poor Mary Blane, lntcrmixta with Old Ned. Dixit that she gave him pain, Et ille had a smooth bald head. Voluit he had a cake— Cum a bottle of good beer . Juravit he’d ride the gate, Neque pro a king would care. Dum canebat. merrily, Taurus pitched across the yard ; Prohibuit his melody, Etprojecit him right hard. Sic upon this life’s high fence Stamus for a little while, Dum old mors doth put us hence, Tactus nos to Hades vile. HAWTHORNE’S “ SCARLET LETTER.” For Mr. Hawthorne it was truly quite super fluous, To call his book the Scarlet Letter, as it seems to us ; For the colour of all letters can easily be known, Since, without one exception, they are always read, alone. [Boston Post. “ I LOVE TO STEAL.” An amusing incident occurred in one of our down east churches, some years ago. The clergyman gave out on a pleasant Sabbath afternoon in J uly— “ I love to steal a while away, From every ’cumbring care, And spend the hour of setting day, In humble, grateful prayer.” The regular chorister being absent, the duty devolved upon good old Dea con M— —, who commenced, “I love to steal—” and then bagged down—and raising his voice to a still higher pitch, he sung “ 1 love to steal—” and as before, concluded he had got the wrong pitch, and deploring that he had not his ‘pitch-tuner,’ he determined to succeed, if he died in the attempt. By this time, all the old ladies were tittering behind their fans, whilst the faces of the ‘young uns’ were all on a broad grin. At length, after a despe rate cough, he made a final demonstra tion, and roared out, “ 1 love to steal—” This effort was too much, every one but the godly, but eccentric parson,was laughing, who rose, and with the ut most coolness, said— “ Seeing our brother’s propensities, let us pray !” It is needless to say that but few in that congregation heard the prayer. Editorial Courtesies. —The editor of the Clarksville Chronicle, in speak iuh of the Hopkinsville Free Press , says : “Mr. Noble is said to be a good writer, and we know him to possess a lively imagination, he being the self same individual who once charged us through his paper with being a robber of lieu roosts. We bear him no mal ice, however, on this account, and offer him our best wishes for his success.” To this, Mr. Noble, with noble mag nanimity, replies: “ Thank you Bob. We reciprocate your good wishes; and since we have learned something of your captivating beauty, we withdraw the hen roost charge, being satisfied that no hen of respectable instinct would let you get close enough to make her captive.” A Night Scene.— One cold night, Quashee woke from his sleep and ad dressed his shivering bed-fellow. “Hallo, Sambo! I want halfde cob bering!” “ lie! Quashee, you good more nor half already.” “Humph! dee tink disnigger fool, to ax for what he got already, eh! I want t’odder half, you fool!” “By jingo! den I quit, for I no see what business 1 got in dis bed.” “ No, you won’t quit neider, my broder—you sarb berry well for keep ing my back warm —so jist keep quiet and lay where you is, if you know what good for yourself, you nigger.” One of his neighbours once went to Nasserredin, and solicited the loan of a rope. The Koodjah went into his house, and after a delay of several minutes, returned, and told the borrower that the rope was in use, tying up flour. “What do you mean?” said the neighbour, “how can a rope be used to bind up flour ?” “A rope may be applied to any use,” replied the Koodjah, “when I do not wish to lend it.”— Turkish Jest Book. In 151(3, Philip II sent the young Constable de Castile to Rome, to congratulate Sextus the Fifth on his advancement. The Pope imprudently said— “ Are there so few men in Spain, that your king sends one without a beard ?” “ Sir,’ said the fierce Spaniard, “if his Majesty had possessed the least idea that you imagined merit lay in a beard, he would doubtless have have deputed a goat to you, and not a gentleman /” “If there is any place where I like to ransack business more than another,” said Mrs. Partington, with animation, untying from the corner of her hand kerchief a sum of money—“ if there is any place better than another, it is a bank. There’s no dilly-dalliance and beating down and bothering you with questions, till you don’t know whether your heels are up oryour head is down ; all you have to do is to put your bill on the counter, and they exonerate it at once without a word.” In the course of his luminous argu ment, Mr. Clay addressing the lltras, cried out with the voice of a stentor — “ What do you want?” A tight little Irishman, who was making some noise, while trying to es cape from the crush near the gallery door inside, replied quite audibly sup posing he was addressed— “ I want to get out ?” 1! railings nt Ilutiiuitn. People seldom improve when they have no other model but themselves tc copy. The trials of life are the tests which ascertain how much gold is in us. Shenstone says “ Poetry and Con sumption are the most flattering of dis eases.” Grief ennobles. He who has not suffered, can never have thought or felt. “You’re a hard customer,” as the man said, when he ran against a lamp post. Leisure is a very pleasant garment to look at, but it is a very bad one to wear. The ruin of millions may be traced to it. A lot of fellows went on a deer hunt, a short time since, down in Arkansas, and in less than five hours, actually captured Jive girls and a woman! On!—Rev. Mr. Nightingale’s toast was : “Our Fire Engines —May they be like old maids, ever ready but, never wanted. “Do you profess religion ?” “ No, sir, 1 profess my faith, and prac tice my religion.” Reader, do thou likewise. Campbel, the poet, being asked to write something original in a lady’s al bum, said that he had nothing original in him, except original sin. A dog who had lost a whole litter O , was seen trying to poke a piece of crape through the door of one of the saussage shops in New-York. An Irishman remarked that a true gentleman will never look at the faults of a pretty woman without shutting his eyes. The Buffalo Mercury says the ague has been so bad in ‘them parts’ that a person afflicted with it actually shook the toe nails off his Jinger ends. “I am going to draw this beau into a knot,” as the young lady said when she stood at the hvmenial altar. EPIGRAM. Fair Jenny came across the sea, Republicans to flatter, Gave up the smiles of royalty, To advertise a hatter. As winds the ivy round the tree, As to the crag the moss-patch roots, So clings my constant soul to thee— My own, my beautiful—my boots. A mathematicien being askad by a wag, “if a pig weighs 200 pounds, what will a hog weigh?” he replied “Jump into the scales, l will tell you immedi ately.” “ Did you ever know anybody to be killed by lightning?” “ Never by lightning,” replied Pat, in an under tone, “ It’s thunder, shure, as knocks them to peices in the ould counthry.” The hearts of boys resemble blades of straw hanging upon the bushes, and the beauty of the girls, the wind that carries them all in its train. “Teddy, mq boy, jist guess how many cheese there is in this here bag, an’ fiiith, I'll give ye the whole five.” “ Five,” said Teddy. “ Arrah, by my sowl, bad luck to the man that tould ye.” “ What are the chief ends of man ?” asked a Sunday School teacher of one of his pupils. “ Head and feet!” was the prompt reply. The teacher fainted. A gentleman meeting John Savage one day, looking very dolorous, said— “ Why, Jack, what ails you; isn’t your fiddle in tune ?” “No, sir,” replied Jack, “it is in pawn.” LEGEND OF ST. PATRICK. ’Twas on the top of this high hill, St. Patrick preached a sarmint, Whigh drove the frogs into the bogs, And banished all the varmint; The frogs went hop, the toads went slop, Plump dash into the water, And the beasts committed suicide, To save themselves from slaughter ! Avery worthy grocer put up a sign of “Vegetable Candles.” Someone asked him why he did so. “They are tallow candles,” said the grocer. “Is tallow a vegetable substance,” pursued the inquirer after knowledge. “Os course it is, don’t sheep eat grass ?” We can’t, for the ears of us under stand—miserable John-donkeys that we are —why every mercantile house recently smashed in England is called a ‘firm.’ It is on the same principle, however, we suppose, that the ‘Sound’ steamboats are always going to pieces. A doctor, on calling upon a gentle man who had been some time ailing, put a fee into the patient’s hand, and took the medicine himself which he had prepared for the sick man; he was not made sensible of his error till he found himself getting ill, ar.d the pa tient getting better. “ Elder, will you have a drink of ci der ?” enquired a farmer of an old tem perance man, who was spending the evening at his house. “Ah! hum—no, thank ye,” said the old man —“I never drink liquor of any kind—’specially cider—but es you call it apple juice, reckon I’ll take a drop!” ON WALTZING. What! the girl I adore by another embraced! What I the balm of her lips shall another man taste! What! touched in the twirl by another man’s knee! What! pant and recline on another than me !

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 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. 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 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 liis Labels are adopted by the parlies above alluded to, the Pens are not made by him, although asserted to be. Vn experience of thirty years lias enabled Mr. Gillott to bring his Steel Pens to the highest state op perfec 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.
