Who from restful love would wander ?
Let me pitch my happy tent
Where its music streams meander
Though the valley of Content!
Lessons of divinest beauty,
Acts which scent the very thought,
Circling round Life’s lowliest duty,
To the loving heart are taught.
Glimpses of a pure ideal,
Not removed from sight and sense.
Bloom in beauty round the real,
Like a fragrant effluence.
From the vale the lofty summits,
Light-enchanted, show moie fair ;
Yet within Love’s peaceful limits,
Flowers are planted every where.
* What the ever toiling seeker,
Vainly sought on fame’s bleak height,
Unto humbler hearts and weaker,
Yielded a perpetual light.
Peacefully the plant upgroweth,
Peacefully the planets move,
Tempests reach no tide that floweth,
Nature’s deepest art is Love.
Life shall not through aspiration
Over Nature’s law transgress ;
Only in her limitation
Are the bounds of happiness.

THE MUSE’S WORKSHOP.
ALTERED FROM THE ITALIAN OF LEOPARDI,
BY ROBERT FERGUSON.
In youth, I had my trade to choose,
And paid a visit to the Muse ;
She kindly showed me through the shop,
All from the bottom to the top ;
And there, in order due displayed,
Explained her different tools of trade.
I saw the anvil and the bellows,
The hammers—rare old stalwart fellows ;
I marked the new self-acting planes
That smooth and level without pains,
And much the process did admire
That spins a bar to miles of wire ;
There, likewise, tastened to the flooring,
Were plenty of machines for bor(e)ing ;
And high amid the rafters dusty,
The brave old models growing rusty.
I watched the process for awhile—
At length I asked her, “Where’s the file?”
“The file !” she answered ; “bah !
Nous avons change tout cela ;
This, my young greenhorn, is, you see.
The era of machinery.
As for the files, we never miss ’em—
We go on quite a different system ;
And our advantage is, that then
Boys do the work iustead of men.”
From the Baltimore Clipper.
SONG.
Air — Otoe vie a Cot in the Valley I love.
Oh! give me a dram of the liquor I love,
A lounge in some Hotel, where tippling friends
rove,
I care not how vulgar the bar-room may be,
So I have the money to lavish there free.
The boxes so cozy shall be our bright bowers,
The odor of rum casks, the perfume of flow
ers—
There with glasses o’erbrimming, we’ll wish
not to roam,
Ah! who would envy the Toper his home.
Oh ! would’st thou be free, to the Ale House
repair,
’Twill steep every sense in forgetfulness
there—
Oh! would thou be free, a light pocket to
sway,
Come visit the Taverns, by night and by day,
Then when substance is squander’d, and dark
is each hearth,
And the hearts that still lov’d us we lay in the
earth—
When the bright eye3 we’ve faded, in death
lose their spell,
Oh', say, who would envy the Drunkard his
Hell ?”

ESCAPE FROM A SHARK.
Hardy, in his travels through Mexi
co, gives the following lively account
of an escape from a shark:— “ The pla
cer de la Piedra Negada, which is near
Loretta, was supposed to have quanti
ties of very large pearl-oysters around
it—a supposition which was at once
confirmed by the great difficulty of fin
ding th s sunken rock. Don Pablo,
however, succeeded in sounding it, and,
in search of specimens of the largest
and oldest shells, dived down in eleven
fathoms water. Ihe rock is not above
one hundred and fifty or too hundred
yards in circumference, and our adven
turer swam round and examined it in all
directions, but without meeting any in
ducement to prolong his stay. Accor
dingly, being satisfied that there were
no oysters, he thought of ascending to
the surface of the water; but first he east
a look upwards, as all divers are obli
ged to do, who hope to avoid the hun
gry jaws of a monster. If the coast is
clear, they may then rise without appre
hension. Don Pablo, however, when
he cast a hasty glance upwards, found a
tintetero had taken a station about three
or four yards immediately above him,
and, most probably, had been watching
during the whole time that he had been
down. A double-pointed stick is a use
less weapon against a tintetero, as its
mouth is of such enormous dimensions,
that both man and stick would be swal
lowed together, lie therefore felt him
self rather nervous, as his retreat was
now completely intercepted. Put, un
der water time is too precious to be
spent in reflection, and therefore he
swam round to another part of the rock,
hoping by this artifice to avoid the vigi
lance of his persecutor. What was his
dismay when he again looked up to find
the pertinacious tintetero still hovering
over him, as a hawk would follow’ a
bird! Ile decribed him as having large,
round, and inflamed eyes, apparently
just ready to dart from their sockets
with eagerness, and a mouth (at the re
collection of which he still shuddered)
that was constantly opening and shut
ting, as it the monster was already in
imagination, devouring his victim,or at
least, that the contemplation of his prey
imparted a foretaste of the gout! Two
alternatives now presented themselves
to the mind of Don Pablo; one, to sutler
himselfto be drowned;the other,to be ea
ten. He had already been under wa
ter so considerable a time, that he found
it impossible any longer to retain his
breath, and was on the point of giving
up for lost, with as much philosophy as
he possessed. But what is dearer than
life 1 ? The invention of man is seldom
at a loss tofind expedients for its preser
vation in cases of great extremity.
son a sudden he recollected that on
one side of the rock he had observed a
san y spot, and to this he swam with
a imaginable sp ed; his attentive
ne . n ) st . watching his movements,
aiK eeptng measured space with him.
As soon as he reached the spot,he com
menced stmng it with his pointed stick,
m such a way that the fine particles
rose, and rendered the water perfectly
turbid, so that he could not see the mon
ster, nor the monster him. Avaling him
self of the c loud by which himself and
the tintetero, were enveloped, he swam
very far out in a transvertical direction,
and reached the surface in safety,altho’
completely exhausted. Fortunately
he rose close to one of the boats; and
those who were within, seeing him in
such a state, and knowing that an ene
my must have been persecuting him,
and that by some articifice he had
saved his life, jumped overboard, as is
their common practice in such cases, to
frighten the creature away by splashing
in the water; and Don Pablo was taken
into the boat more dead than alive.
SULTAN AND DERVISE.
An incident, which occurred soon af
ter the accession of the present sultan,
shows that, in some respects at least,he
is not indisposed to follow up the strong
traditions of his race. At the begin
ning of his reign, the Ulema was resolv
ed, if possible, to prevent the new sul
tan from carrying on those reforms
which had ever been so distasteful to
the Turks, grating at once against their
religious associations and their pride of
race,and which recent events had cer
tainly proved not to be productive of
those good results anticipated by Sul
tan Mahmoud. To attain this object,
the muftis adopted the expedient of
working on the religious fears of the
youthful prince. One day as he was
praying, according to his custom, at his
father’s tomb, he heard a voice from
beneath reiterating in a stifled tone the
words, “ I burn.” The next time that
he prayed there the same words assail
ed his ears. “1 burn,” was repeated
again and again, and no word beside,
lie applied to the chief of the imans
to know what this prodigy might mean,
and was informed in reply that his fa
ther, though a great man, had also been,
unfortunately, a great reformer, and
that as such it was but too much to be
feared that he had a terrible penance to
undergo in the other world. The sul
tan sent his brother-in-law to pray at
the same place, and afterwards several
others of his household; and on each
occasion the same portentous words
were heard.
One day he announced his intention
of going in state to his father’s tomb,
and was attended thither by a splendid
retinue, including the chief doctors of
the Mahometan law. Again during
his devotions, were heard the words “1
burn,” and all except the sultan trem
bled. Rising from his prayer-carpet, he
called his guards, and commanded them
to dig up the pavement and remove the
tomb. It was in vain that the muftis
interposed, reprobating so great a pro
fanation,and uttering dreadful warnings
as to its consequences. The sultan per
sisted. The foundations of the tomb
were laid bare, and in a cavity skilfully
left amoung them was found —not a
burning sultan but a dervise. The
young monarch regarded him for a time
fixedly and in silence, and then said,
without any further remark or the slight
est expression of anger, “You burn ?
We must cool you in the Bosphorus.” |
In a few minutes more the dervise
was in a bag, and the bag, immediate
ly after, was in the Bosphorus; while
the sultan rode back to his palace, ac
companied by his household and min
isters, who ceased not all the way to
ejaculate, “Mashallah. Allah is great;
tKora iw no God But Go<l, and Maho
met is his prophet.”
\De Vere, Sketches.
Worthy of Imitation. —Dr. J. V.
C. Smith,in a recent letter from Ant
werp, says: —“ It is one of the national
customs, both in Belgium and Holland,
to plant the roads with trees —secure-
ing comfort to the traveller, protection
from the sun’s rays to animals, while
excellent timber is raised in abundance
for the construction of bridges, and for
all public necessities. Between the
city of Brussels and Waterloo is one
continuous magnificent forest of lofty
beeches, the shafts free of all limbs 40,
50, 60, and 80 feet. For miles in suc
cession, the tops of these magnificent
trees meet over the track, at an eleva
tion of perhaps 90 to 100 feet, in the
form of a gothic arch, completely in
tercepting the sun’s rays. It is not un
like passing through some of the large
cathedrals, which are found strewn in
profusion all over this theatre of for
mer human activity, and present moral
deterioration.”

Ml ASM A
Dr. Charles Richardson, of Balti
more county, Md., has recently pub
lished a small volume on the “potatoe
rot,” which is spoken of as a valuable
contribution to knowledge on that in
teresting subject, in the course of which
he has touched upon a presumed kind
red topic of especial interest to the
low country of the South. Os this part
of his book, the Baltimore Sun has the
following notice:
“A part of the work consists of an
essay on miasma,its nature, the manner
in which it acts on the human system
in producing disease, the character of
the disease, the mode of treatment and
manner of its prevention. This is
quite an interesting portion of the
work, and one which is worthy of par
ticular attention in many parts of our
country. Wc extract the following
statement from amongst a series of
similar experiments, in which the re
sults sustained Dr. Richardson’s the
ory ;
“ Mrs. Westley, living in the forks
of the Patuxent, in Anne Arundel
County, had for many years never es
caped having miasmatic disease in the
majority of the members of her fami
ly, which consisted of four children,
five servants, and herself. In Septem
ber, in the year 1822, I was called to
see her. She was ill with billious re
mittent fever. I had two of the chil
dren and two servants, put into a sepa
rate room to sleep. The countenances
of all these indicated approaching bil
iary disease. The other two children
remained in her room, with one ser
vant to wait on her. The other two
servants lived in an adjacent house. J
took a long-necked glass retort, placed
it on the hearth in the chimney,
the point coming through the fire
board. To this was attached a long
crooked tube, which opened into a large
tub of water, setting some little dis
tance from the hearth. The children
laid in a trundel bedstead, about one
foot high—the servants slept, on the
floor. In this retort was placed a cer
tain portion of black oxide of maga
nese, on which was poured sulphuric
acid, and the flame from a strong lamp
SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE.
was applied to the bottom of the retort
which caused the oxygen to be disen
gaged, and thrown into the room
where these four slept. This, at first,
was done every night, and after awhile
every other night, until the frost came.
All these four appeared perfectly ro
bust, healthy, and soon regained the
usual florid color of countenance, w hich,
when they commenced to use the oxy
gen. was of a pale yellow, sickly cast.
All the rest were down with remittent
or intermittent fever. The following
year the experiment was repeated on
all that slept in the house. All who
used the oxygen remained free from
disease. Os the two servants in the
outhouse, one was attacked by disease
w hich was so violent that all efforts
were in vain to save him. This sec
ond year, miasmatic disease, as is so
common in that locality, was generally
prevalent.
The author presents a system of ven
tillation, in connection with this branch
of his subject, which, he is confident,
would render any place, habitable,even
the black hole of Calcutta. The sub
ject discussed is of such universal im
portance, that Dr. Richardson’s theory
and practice may well command par
ticular attention.
Drying Plants. —Plants may be
dried in such a manner as to be ex
tremely beautiful, retaining the whole
of the volatile oil and aroma, and their
true colours. To effect this, they must
be dried in a dark and close room, and
not, as is usually t cease, by exposure
to a current of air, and the action of
light. When the separation of their
acqueous particles is effected by their
evaporation, and they are tolerably
dry, they are to be submitted to pres
sure in small quantities, enveloped in
a slightly absorbed paper, until the oil
appears on the surface, and which is
known by its discoloration ; by this,
all change of colour, by the action of
the light or further loss of volatile
matters by evaporation is prevented.
In pot herbs, as w r ell as medicinal
plants, this will be found a very deci
ded improvement.

Discovery of a Yellow’ Camelia.
—Mr. Fortune, the English traveller,
and botanical collector, has lately un
expectedly discovered a real yellow
camelia. It proves to be one of the
anemone flowered race, the exterior pe
tals being French white, and the cen
tral ones of a rich primrose yellow.
He found it in blossom in a nursery
garden, in one of the towns in the
North of China, which he had visited
in search of tea plants.
Ants. —To drive away ants, use sul
phur steeped in water; in the gravel
walks, strew the gravel with salt, and
then water it; this will apply also to
worms. Boiling water is also effica
cious, but drowning them out wfith wa
ter useless.

TAKING THE CENSUS.
Great as is the glory of being a gov
ernmental functionary, and sweet as is
lh<> oo.tlofa.otion of* iHruotlng one’s lmml
now* and then into Uncle Sam’s money
chest, we confess we do not envy the
Deputy Marshal’s their fun in count
ing the noses of all the men, women,
children, and negroes, in their districts.
Many rich scenes will occur, probably,
during the execution of their present
job, which would stagger the combined
genius of a Boz and a Titmarsh to do
them justice. Already the fun has be
gun, and the wags of the press stand
ready with tablet and pencil to daguer
reotype it in all its richness.
The Buffalo Republic tells a capital
story of a rubicund visaged old gentle
man, with nose bestrid with green
spectacles, to add to the awful dignity
of his appearance, going to take the
census of an Irish shanty. Mrs. Mur
phy is at home, with the new-born ba
by in her arms, and about a dozen of
the “rising gineration” about the floor.
The Marshal, assuming an official air
of importance, opens his book, points
his pencil to the virgin page, and look
ing up, asks the question :
“ What is your name ?”
“Why, thin what’s that to you,
now ?”
“ My good woman —”
“ Arrah, don’t give us any of your
blarney, I’m no more a good woman
than your mother was.”
“ Madam—l wan’t to know the ex
tent of your family—l am taking the
census.”
“ Oh, you bloody old thief! Is it
wanting to take away our sinses ye
are ? Bad luck to me, but I knew ye
war some sort of a necromancer, sure
enough !”
“ My dear madam—”
“ Out, you ould schemer ! Jemmy,
let Tiger loose, and bring me the pick
axe, quick!”
Exit Marshal, in a hurry.
HAD A HAND IN IT.
The following squib was “perpetra
ted” in one of the public schools in
Philadelphia county. We are not
aware of its ever having appeared in
print, and its too good to be lost.
It seems that a few hours’ exemption
from mischief had greatly enlarged the
bump of “treachery” in the upper sto
ries of some of the young “ideas,” and
they took and smeared the ballustrade
from top to bottom with tar, and when
the master came in, he very naturally
laid his hand on it, when he mounted
the stairs. lie was soon aware of his
mishap, but said nothing about it until
the scholars had all been called in and
had taken their seats, when he acquaint
ed them with the fact, and said he
would give any one five dollars that
would inform him who had a hand in
it.
At the moment, up jumped a little
red-headed urchin, who said—
“Tliir, you setli you’ll give any one
five dollerth who’ll tell you who had a
hand in it ?”
“ Yes.”
“ Now, tliir, you’ll not whip me, will
vou ?”
“No.”
“Well, thir, y Now you won’t
whip ? 4 ’
“ You young scamp, I'll lick you if
you don’t tell pretty soon.”
“ Thir, y-o-u Oh, I don’t like to.”
“ Go on, or I’ll skin you alive !”
“ Well, you had a hand in it /”
The master gave in, and forked
over.
How Bridget dried the Candles. —
Aw’ay up in Vermont, n long time ago,
an Irish “help” had spoiled a lot of can
dles, by letting them fall into a hogs
head of rainwater. Her mistress’ pa
tience gave way entirely, under this
disaster, and she retired to her room
in a passion. While trying unsuccess
fully, to calm her excited feelings, by
taking violent exercise in the rocking
chair, an odor, more penetrating than
agreeable, assailed her nose, and
caused her to exclaim —
“Sakes alive, Bridget, what’s the
matter now?”
“Nothin’ ipa’am,” replied Bridget, “I
only put the candles in the hot oven,
for to dhry /”— Blade.
Aunt Dilsey. —“ Forty dollars for
the higher branches,” read Aunt Dil
sey, the other day, in a school adver
tisement. “Well,” soliloquized she,
“ if that ain’t a new T kick, I’m a heathen.
In my day, when children went to
school, they were taught to read and
write, but now they must have ’em
playin’ in the branches. My mother
used to keep me out of the branches
when I was a little gal. particularly
when they was high. But now, peo
ple pay forty dollars to have their
children put into the ‘higher branches.’
Well, well, that dreadful critic, the cri

A Half Price. —The following con
versation took place at 10 o’clock, last

famous Gumbo Gaul, Esq., Extraordi

Cholera and Cucumbers. —Two in
dividuals met on Saturday evening, one

“ Smith, what’s the cholera report to

“By George ! that’s a falling off, 1 11

THE HAPPY PAIR.
Says Dick to Jack, “your neighbours say
You wrangle with your wife each day
“Poo, poo,” says Jack, “they only joke,
Tis now a fortnight since we spoke.”

us that a man should attend to his dress
and to his address; in youth that he

“Mr. Jenkins,” said a tradesman at
Sydney to a recent arrival there, “ will
it suit you to settle that old account of
yours 1 ?” “ No, sir, you are mistaken
in the man—l am not one of the old
settlers /”
“ 1 say, Pat,” said a Yankee to an
Irishman who was digging in his gar
den, “are you digging out a hole in
that onion bed?” “No,” says Pat, “1
am digging out the earth and leaving

The following request was made at
church : “A sailor going to sea, his
wife desires the prayers of the congre
gation for his safety.” It happened to
be read thus : “A sailor going to see
his wife, desires the prayers of the
congregation for his safety.”
“Pray, Mrs. Zapriska, why do you
whip your children so often?”
“La, Mr. Worthy, I do it for their
enlightenment. 1 never whipt one of
them in my life that he did’nt acknowl

“What’s the matter, Johnny Bull ?”
said a fellow to a limping English
man.
“Ho, dear, ho, dear,” said the En

Without sorrow, life would he no
better than a dream. Grief is reality,
and though bitter as wormwood, mor

each other.
“So you would not take me for

“ For better or for worse,” replied

John Adams ex-President of the

“Is there any thing really the matter

who had sent for him.
“I don’t know how it is,” was the re

“Very well,” said the doctor, “I’ll
give you something to take away all
that.”
A gentleman travelling on horseback,
not long ago, came upon an Irishman
who was fencing in a most barren and
desolate piece of land. “What are

he. “A herd of cows w’ould starve

MANUFACTURER'S WAREHOUSE,
91 JOHN-STREET, NEW YORK.
ALARGEstock of these well known PENS constantly
on hand, lor sale as above.
CAUTlON.—Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC
TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil
lott’s style op Label, his mode of putting up his
Peris, 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. Thiscaotionespe
cially refers to his original No. 303, the great popularity ol
which has caused it to be imitated, and the numberadopt
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 or perfec
tion, and the liberal patronage which he has 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. HENRY OWEN, Agent.
