STANZAS TO A LADY.
by c. l. whklkr.
A torm was in my early dreams,
By day and night—
A presence fair and well-defined,
An angel bright.
In thee that vision is renewed
(As vernal sun’s renew the flowers,)
All beauteous as that haunting form
Whose mem’ry lives thro’ all my hours !
Within thine eye’s blue depth of sea
An angel lies,
That seems to bid one strive to win
A kingly prize.
But oh ! unworthy and abash’d,
My action falters on resolve—
The riddle of thine April eyes
I cannot guess—nor dare evolve !
To praise the whiteness of the snow,
The light of stars —
To paint the morning walking through
The Orient’s bars,
Were tasks of lighter pains, meseems,
Than telling all my charms so rare—
Than painting beauties of thy face
While Love is reigning changeful there!
My harp hath never known the lays
That passion breathes;
My heart hath never bound the wreath
The lover wreathes ;
But oh ! if heart and hand could frame
A song and wreath as pure as thou,
My soul would quick essay the task
To tell how deep I love thee now !
But I am humble—very poor—
So pass me by—
Enkindle not my soul of flame
With word or eye !
Should I love you —you so star-like 1
Should all my days of dreaming be ?
Still my soul rebels to prudence,
And daily, nightly, dreams of thee.
The following beautiful lines, says the Mir
ror, have been sent to us (in manuscript) by a
friend of the lamented poet; and, as they will
only add another leaf to the ever green fame of
the author of “My Life is like a Summer
Rose,” we do not hesitate to give them public
ity :
ON MY BIRTH DAY.
BY RICHARD HENRY WILDE.
Another of my wasted years has gone,
And brought me nearer nothing but the grave;
And thus they wax and wane, and one by one,
Leave, as they found me—Melancholy’s
slave!
Each stamps its wrinkles deeper on my brow—
Each sheds its frost upon my scattered hair ;
And those who knew me once and see me now,
Speak of me as among‘the things that were.’
I’ve watched, through night, till dawn; the lin
gering sun—
It is my fortieth sun—at length appears,
And seems to question me—“ What hast thou
done
Through this long waste of miserable years ?
’Ere his eighth lustre, gallant Surrey died,
But, dying, left behind a deathless name ;
And hast thou, then, no honourable pride—
No noble aspiration after fame ?
Horace and Virgil, Caesar, Scipio lit
With glory, ere thy years, their sword or
page;
Ev’n while thou liv’dst, Napoleon, Byron writ
Their brief and burning annals on the age !
“And thou !”—Enough ! I know it all—’tis
true!
Wasting my head and heart on Love or
Rhyme;
While the irrevocable moments flew,
I perished, and bequeathed no name to Time!

CAST IRON BUILDINGS.
Public attention has been around to
the necessity of adopting some method
ot building which will effectually pre
vent the spread of a conflagration when
it occurs in the business portions of our
city, and the lamentable destruction of
property consequent upon it.
On many quarters it is strongly urg
ed, “That no building shall hereafter be
erected except it is Fireproof. ” The
operation of such a law would appear
at first impracticable, but a little reflec
tion will satisfy every one that it would
not only be entirely feasible, but would
attain the end so much to be desired,
without involving any new principle or
burdening the builder with any addi
tional expense.
The public probably do not sufficient
ly appreciate the fact, that we have at
hand a material destined, as if bv Pro
vidence, to be applied to just such a pur
pose : I refer to Iron—a material bet
ter adapted to the construction ofhouses
for living, manufacturing, or public pur
poses, than either brick, wood or stone,
and one susceptible of being worked
with more ease, beauty and economy
than any other in use.
The space of a newspaper article is
too limited to allow of a full discussion
upon the peculiar adaptation of Iron for
the purposes alluded to, but a few of
its most obvious advantages may be
enumerated.
P irst. — As regards form and shape.
Forms which stone never could be
made to assume,varying from the light
est fairy structures, to the most elabo
rate designs of the Grecian or Gothic.
Saving of Space in Foundations,
discarding the cumbrous piles of stones,
and substituting a firmer and more
compact base.
The capability of being speedily and
easily erected or of being taken down
and removed without a loss of time or
material.
Protection against Lightning—a phi
losophical certainty.
Security against Fire.—ln addition
to the iron presenting no “food for fire”
naturally ; in the formation of the parts
of an iron building, it can be shown,
that it can never be injured by contrac
tion in the event of internal conflagra
tion, or cracked by the sudden applica
tion of water, even w T ere it brought to
a white heat.
Ventilation —the nature of the ma
terial affording the best method of se
curing the most perfect system of ven
tilation.
Facilities for the transmission of
sound—a desideratum in all churches
or public buildings adapated for large
audiences.
Absence of Vermin—Avoidance of
mildew and absorption of dampness.
For the application of Paint—the
best known material, affording a beau
ty of external finish with a protection
from the weather.
Durability, strength and firmness, in
particular for factories employing steam
and heavy machinery.
Strengthening properties of Iron
for the Constitution, as a principle of
Health. 1 r
External and Internal Ornamental fin
ish by the means of Castings.
Economy.— The slight effects of time
or\\ear, the slight repairs necessary,
and the ease and small expense with
whicn additions may be made.
The lepetition of form, through the
medium of castings.—A single design
may be multiplied a thousand times at
the simple expense of the iron, saving
time and manual labor.
The peculiar adaption of iron to the
formation of circulinear and graceful
lines in contradistinction to the rectan
gular and perpendicular. The severe
iules which govern the Gothic or Gre
cian scructures in the laying of the
stones, can be departed trom in every
essential particular.
In connection with this last mention
ed advantage, much might be said in
regard to the adaptation of antique
forms to the wants of our commercial
community ; and whether shapes more
in keeping with the purpose intended,
would not be preferrable to the Gre
cian Temple or other structures of the
ancients, however beautiful they may
appear at Rome or Athens.
The foregoing are a few of the many
advantages which iron affords over every
other material in use for the construc
tion of our dwellings, factories, ware
houses or churches. The subject
ought to be examined into and treated
by men of science ; and the public, in
these days of burning down and build
ing up, should give their careful atten
tion to a material which carries with it
the three great essentials of house
building, viz : a saving of time, labour,
and expense. — Evening Mirror.
The making of Leather. —This has
been ever a very tedious process; con
sisting merely of the union of the gela
tine of the skin with tannin; yet the
combination has been only effected af
ter the lapse of months. Anew mode
has been invented, by the use of a ma
chine, which punctures the raw hide
nearly through its substance, and thus
gives the tanning a ready intercourse
with all parts of the interior. The punc
tures become closed, and the substance
more compact and tenacious. Punc
tured skins may be tanned in a few
hours by sewing them in a bag, and
applying presure, though this rapid pro
cess is not advisable. It is said that
the punctures effect the grain in such a
manner as to prevent the cracking of
the leather. — Charleston Eve. News.
A New’ Cuticle. —The Scientific
American says that plasters of dissolved
gutta pereha have been in use among
the “regular faculty” for tw T o years. —
Chloroform is employed to dissolve the
gutta pereha ; the solution is first rate
for cuts. If a printer gets the points of
his fingers cut, or the cuticle worn with
new type, let him go to a druggist and
get them pointed with this gutta pereha
liquid ; no sooner is it applied to the
fingers than they are covered with a
thin, white, hard, yet flexible and firm
ly adhering skin, the chloroform evapo
rates in an instant, and leaves the gut
ta pereha behind. Gun cotton dissolv
ed in chloroform makes a good plaster
also, but not like gutta pereha, for the
hands of a workman.
Etherization of Bees. —Prof. De
pays, of the veterinary school at Brus
sels, has successfully applied the vapor
of ether to bees, in order to deprive
them of their honey without taking
their lives. The vapour was blown in
to the hive through a glass tube, and
the bees were soon made entirely tor
pid, in which condition they remained
for some time, but subsequently re
vived, and were as lively and healthy
as ever.
51 (Snlilrt nf }3uttrjj.
My Stars and Garters. —The Star
and Garter, at Richmond, has lately
given rise to a scene of a very singular
character. The waiters have grown
sentimental over their chief, and have
been giving a piece of plate to him at
the Dysart Arms, Petersham. Seve
ral speeches were made, in which “old
associations were feelingly alluded to,
and the head w r aiter‘s health having
been drunk, the air of “Those Evening
Bells” was played, as being appropri
ate to the immense number of bells,
which may be heard, all ringing at
once, in the hall of the Star and Gar
ter, on a Summer Sunday’s Evening.
The head waiter, in returning thanks, so
affected his fellow-waiters, that they
were compelled to absorb their tears
in their napkins.
The piece of plate was a salver with
an inscription, in which the head wait
er was salved over with compliments,
to an immense extent, and there was
inscribed in the centre, as a motto, the
words “Coming, coming,” in allusion to
which, the recipient was frequently
spoken of, as “the Coming Man.”
We regret it is not in our power to
give any of the speeches that were
spoken on the occasion, but in the
course of the evening, a great deal was
said on the subject of the virtues of the
head w'aiter, who, it was stated, had
been known to hand five hundred
breads in forty minutes, wipe three
hundred glasses in half an hour, pour
out eighty glasses of champagne, and
exclaim “Coming directly, Sir,” to
eighty applicants at once,without going
near, or giving offence to any.
Thf Queen at Sea.— We could not
have a more appropriate Sovereign for
the British Islands, than her present
Majesty, who is perfectly at home at
sea. and who furnishes an excellent
representative of Brittania, of wave ru
ling celebrity. Among the luggage
put on board the royal yacht for the
contemplated cruise to Ostend, were a
cow and a piano ; a couple of articles,
showing that the Queen apprehended
nothing from the roughness of the
weather, to disturb her ordinary ar
rangements, but that she would be
able to enjoy her tea and music as
usual. The wind being somewhat
boisterous, it might have been raised
a good deal higher than concert pitch
by the pitching of the vessel. As to
the cow, its notions of a toss up would
have been a little extended by the
freaks of Neptune, but there would be
no immediate danger to the animal un
less any unskillful hand on board
should have got to the piano, and
struck up the tune the cow died of, in
an unguarded moment.
A Return in Kind. —We have often
chronicled the visits of King Leopold*
to Queen Victoria. At last Queen
Victoria has paid her return visit to
King Leopold. Let us hope that Flem
ish hospitality, unlike Flemish book
publishing, may produce something
better than a contrefacon Beige.
SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE.
The Imperial Bagman.— lt strikes
us that the “President’s Tour” is very
much in the style of a commercial
traveller, travelling about the country,
visiting the different towns, for impe
rial orders. Whether Louis Napoleon
will return with the crown and sceptre,
which he has started, (according to that
popular informant, Rumour, who is the
Editor of the poor man’s Moniteur ,)
with the object of bringing back with
him appears very doubtful. The re r
turn which the Maison Napoleon et Cie
have received at Paris from Besancon,
and the different parts of Alsatia, are
“Very flat, —nothing doing.”
■< ♦
In Medio (Non) Tutissimus. —The
Correspondent of a morning paper, de
scribing the street preparations prepared
for the Queen’s reception at Ostend,
speaks of “the Prussian Eagle, that
seems trying to fly both ways at once ;”
a happy emblem, surely, for a kingdom
that dare not be despotic, and can’t be
liberal; that halts in a half-and half
flight from the absolutisms of a Prus
sian Court, to the Anarchy of a Frank
fort Assembly.
The French Republican Caws. —
A short time ago an enormous number
of Crows alighted on the trees of the
Tuilleries, and on the roof of the Pal
ace, when it was found necessary to
call out some of the Chasseurs of Vin
cennes, who killed about five hundred
of the feathered visitors. We do not
exactly see what harm these birds could
have done, but perhaps the inhabitants
of the Tuilleries objected to being
crow’ed over.
The Gentlemen of Lyons. —Louis
Nopoleon, on his recent visit to Lyons,
recalled the w'ords of the Emperor, and
requested the City of Lyons to love
him. He did his best to clothe him
self in the second-hand habits of his il
lustrious uncle, and Louis Napoleon in
Lyons, must have reminded many of
the fable of the ignobler animal in the
Lion’s skin.
Railway Intelligence. —Mr. Punch
is authorized to contradict,in his strong
est manner, a malicious report that
Lord Brougham had been engaged to
work all the trains, up and down, on
the Eastern Railway, vice all the late
hands, discharged.
Neat and Appropriate. —They pre
sented Jenny Lind with a tea-kettle, at
Liverpool, probably from the well
known proficiency of that utensil in
singing.
Vulgar Amendment of an Old Pro
verb. —“In Vino-Veritable-Ass.” —Be-
cause, when a man is drunk, he is sure
to make an ass of himself.
The Most Desirable Settlement
for Emigrants. —The Pecuniary Set
tlement.

GEORGIA PECULIARITIES.
Someone who has recently travelled
in Georgia, gives a specimen of the
provincialisms in use among the Geor
gians, in the following imaginary dia
logue :
A traveller stops at tho house to
spend the night.
Traveller—Can 1 stay with you to
night.
Landlord —I reckon. We does not
like to turn people away. We does
not practice keeping people.
T.—lnterrupting him.) If it is not
convenient for you to keep us, we w T ill
go on.
L. —Yes, oh yes, we’ll keep you.
Alight. It will be dark before you
can overtake the next house, and it is
mighty hot too. Your horse looks
mighty sorry, and 1 reckon you can
take up with my fare.
T.—Have you corn and fodder.
L. —Yes, right smart of both.
T, —Well, take my horse.
L.—Here, Jack, carry this gentle
man’s horse -to the lot. Give him a
smart chance of corn and fodder. You
hear.
Jack.—Yes, Massa.
Traveller goes into the house and
asks for supper.
Landlady.—Ann, ho ! Ann. (Ann
answers.) Here, get some supper for
this gentleman. Fry some bacon and
make a hoe cake. Get a smart chance
of bacon. Make a heap of coffee. You
hear. (Ann answers.) Be peert now.
(Turning to the traveller.) You come
from Florida. I reckon.
Landlord—(To the traveller.) You
had a heap of bad road to-day. It has
been mighty hot, too. Shall I tote
your plunder (baggage) into the house?
In the morning, the traveller asks
for his bill.
Landlord—Well, I charges for eating
a man over night, 75 cents, 25 cents
for sleeping him, and 50 cents for eat
ing his horse. That makes, I reckon,
about a dollar and a half.
MRS. PARTINGTON
This lady’s name is so often taken,
that it may interest our readers to
learn something of her history. She
is supposed to be a fictitious person. —
This is not so. She is truly one of
flesh and blood: and with her presumed
sayings, and actual doings, should be
introduced generally to the American
public.
Mrs. Partington is, if not lately dead,
as was asserted by Burke, of the Tus
caloosa Moniter, a resident of Sidmouth.
In the winter of 1824, an extraordina
ry storm occurred in that town, and
the waters of the Atlantic rose, and
threatened to overflow it. Mrs. Part
ington lived on the beach, and seeing
the unusual breaches of the tide upon
her premises, resolved to adopt the re
medy, common with house-wives, on
occasions of floods. Mounted on her
pattens, with her mop in her hands,
she vigourously assaulted the Atlantic
ocean; as it rolled up its impudent
waves on the beach, and kept up a very
courageous pushing back, and wringing
out. As the Atlantic shook its main,
and rushed, more terrible, to the attack,
every moment encroaching a foot, Mrs.
Partington’s fury rose higher. But,
though Mrs. Partington had conquered
sundry duck puddles, and deluges of
rain; and had even beaten Mr. Parting
ton, in divers engagements; the swel
ling sea was too much for her. Dis
gusted, she fled from Sidmouth to
America,-and has ever since been ut
tering those wise things, which are ma
king her so celebrated.— Eve. News.
A MAN WHO DON’T READ PAPERS.
We heard, some time ago, a story
about a sedate, quiet, ease-loving citi
zen, who was much tormented by the
continual discussions and wranglings of
the village politicians, that he resolved
to saddle his horse, and proceed to
some remote quiet part of the country,
where politics were never talked, nor
newspapers ever read. After a long
and weary ride of many days, passing
many settlements and cabins, the se
date old gentleman reached the very
outskirts of civilization, and halted his
horse before a rude cabin, in the door
of which sat an elderly man, clad in
deer skins.
“ Good day, my friend,” said the
traveller.
“ The same to you,” replied the own
er of the cabin.
“My friend, continued the traveller,
“ have you any news ?”
“ No, sir.”
“ Any late papers !”
“ No, sir.”
“ Can you tell me what has been
done with the Compromise Act ! ’
“ Haven’t the honor to know him.”
“ Have you heard whether the Gal
phin claim has been settled !”
“ No, sir ; I’m a squatter —there are
no claims here.”
“ Have you any information of the
probable admission of California! ’
“ Cally—what!”
“ Never mind, sir. Perhaps, howev
er, you can tell me what will be the
probable course ofFilmore.
“ Who in the devil is he!”
“ That will do, my friend,” replied
the traveller, getting off his horse, “ I
desire to spend a month or so with you,”
and accordingly he entered the settler’s
cabin, and took up his quarters with
his agreeable companion, and , no
doubt, there now, far removed from the
turmoil and excitement of politics.

Weeds exhaust the strength of the
ground, and if suffered to grow, may
be called garden sins.
Buy not, sell not, where self-respect
is bartered, for that once lost, the
main spring of honor is rusted and de
cayed.
There is no policy like politeness;
and good manners is the best thing in
the world, either to get a good name,
or to supply the want of it.
Great talent renders a man famous;
great merit produces respect: great
learning gains us esteem ; good breed
ing alone insures love and affection.
Cure for Corns. —lt is said that
saleratus bound upon these trouble
some visitors for a few w r eeks, changed
occasionally, will effect an entire cure.
Plants derive the greater part of
their carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
from water, and of their nitrogen from
amonia and nitric acid.
To Fumigate a Sick Room. —Make a
strong solution of saltpetre, and thor
oughly saturate common brown paper.
When dry burn it in different parts of
the room. It will quickly remove all
unpleasant odours.
To Preserve Flowers Fresh. —When
cut flow r ers are withering, plunge about
one-third of the stem in boiling water;
by the time the water is cold they will
revive. Then cut off’ the ends and put
them in cold water, with a little nitre,
when they will keep for several days.
The bones of a bird are hollow and
filled with air. If a string be tied
round the neck of a sparrow, so that no
air can enter its lungs, and its leg be
broken, it will live. Respiration will
take place by means of the broken
bone.
Take a sponge and wash the skin
thoroughly with cold water, which must
be followed by a good scrubbing with
a coarse towel or cloth. Besides caus
ing special good, such an occasion
al practice contributes in the greatest
degree to the general tone and health
of the system.
A celebrated writer on the sight says,
that wearing veils permanently, weak
ens many naturally very good eyes, on
account of the endeavours of the eye to
adjust itself to the ceaseless vibration of
that too common article of dress. La
dies, then, should beware of hiding
their pretty eyes and faces, with veils.
A gentleman near Waltham Abbey
was experimenting a short time ago
with the electric light, and having a
wound in his left hand, he touched the
conducting wire with it, and at once
felt an irritation in his hand, and it be
came swollen, and his whole body was
soon covered with tumours.
An eminent French statistical wri
ter once took his station near the stair
case at a London ball, for the purpose
of ascertaining the proportion of gentle
men who arranged their hair with their
fingers before entering the room, lie
found them to average about twenty
nine out of thirty ; those who had least
or most hair, usually occupying most
time.
To make Blacking. —Take of ivo
ry black, tw r o ounces; sugar and
gum arabic (in powder,) of each
one ounce, and the white of one
egg. Mix these ingredients well to
gether, and then gradually add one pint
of beer. In application, it is only ne
cessary to free the boots or shoes from
dirt,and use the blacking with a sponge
or peice of rag. When dry, it assumes
a polish without the aid of a brush.
Dahlias. —Monseur de Candolle, in
his essay on Dahlias, has observed, that
it is not probable we shall ever see a
blue one, since the variation is from
purple to yellow'. He considers blue
and yellow to be the fundamental types
of the colours of flowers, and that they
mutually exclude each other; yellow r
passes readily into red or white, but
never into blue; and, in like manner,
blue flowers are changed by cultivation
into red and white, but never into yel
low. Until about forty years ago, no
variety was known that did not possess
a tinge of purple in its blossoms, and
it wes even doubted whether a blossom
entirely tinged with purple could be
produced.

EVERY MAN HIS OWN PHYSICIAN 1
A POPULAR WORK ON FAMILY MEDICINE.
THE Planters Guide, and Family Book of Medicine,
for the instruction and use of Planters, Families,
Country People, and all others who may be out of the
reach of a Physician, or unable to employ them. By Dr.
J. Hume Simons.— With a supplement on the treatment
of Asiatic Cholera, by a Charleston Physician.
The popularity of this book is attested by the rapid sale
of the first large edition; which induced the publishers to
stereotype the work, after a careful revision, and they are
now prepared to supply any demand for it. It has been
approved by the ablest physicians, and is itself the result
of a long practice, and thorough observation of disease in
the south. The Medical Tallies are arranged on a simple
and original plan, and the volume eontains more matter in
a small space than any work of Domestic Medicine now
lnUSe ’ EVERY FAMILY IN THE SOUTH
should have a copy of this book, as it may frequently
Save both their Health and their Money.
It is published at the exceedingly low price of 91,2,
and a liberal discount made to the trade or to agents

MANUFACTURER’S WAREHOUSE,

A LARGE stock of these well known PENS constantly
on hand, lor sale as above.
CAUTION.-Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC.
TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joskph Gil
lott’B style ok Label, his mode ot putting up Ins
Pens, and also Designating Numbers, he desires to
give the following
NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.
That all genuine package* or boxes pf 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
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 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 nas ac
quired. HENRY OWEN, Agent.
