Alter toiling oft in vain, Baffled, yet to struggle fain ; After toiling loug, to gain Little good with mickle pain ; Let me ie t, but lay me low, Where the hedge-side roses blow ; Where the little daisies grow, When the winds a-maying go : Where the footpath rustics plod ; Where the bieeze-bow’d poplars nod ; Where the old woods worship God ; Where His pencil paints the sod ; Where the wedded throstle sings ; Where the young bird tries his wings ; Where the wailing plover swings Near the runlet’s rushy springs, Where, at times, the tempests roar, Shaking distant sea and shore, Still will rave old Barnesdale o’er ; To be heard by me no more ! There, beneath the breezy west, Tn’d and thankful, let me rest, L ke a child, that sleepeth best On its gentle mother’s breast.” ANN. “ The broken heart, that loves in vain, Resigns the loved one never, But, in despair, st.ll hope.- to gain, The lost for ever: Then, greet the shy morn’s treacherous glow, Thou pale, autumnal blossom, Ere chill November’s sleet and snow Beat on thy bosom ! So Ann still loved : it was her doom To love, in shame and sorrow t Chailes came no more ! but “he will come,” She said “to-morrow.” Oh, yet for her, deep bliss remain’d ; She dreamed he came, and kiss’d her! And, in that hour, the angels gain’d Another sister, Elliott. |4jjilosojii)i| fur flit AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE. 1 he Scientific Convention, in August last at New Haven, seems to have been a good gathering. A great number of papers were read, the following brief notices and curious points of some of which, and of the discussions, we se lect fiom the reports of the New York Tribune. Electrical Discharges. Professor Henry mentioned instances where or dinary electrical discharges had affected a circle of twenty miles in diameter, — By an apparatus, simply constructed for the occasion, he had” succeeded in magnetizing a needle by a flash of light ning so tar ofl that he could not hear the thunder. Unity of Structure in the Vertebrata. Professor Agassiz compared the face of fishes with that of other vertebrata and man, and from the lowest type of vertebrates up to man, traced one com mon structure of frame. lie opnosed the racial angle theory, as calculated in eflect to place some families of animals above the human race. Sedimentary Rocks.— Professor Sil- Jiman junr., attributed the origin of a spheroidal structure in certain sedimen tary rocks from the Niagara group to the agency of great numbers of small giegaiious fishes which were known to have existed at that period. Professor Henry considered the peculiar concave I and convex forms to be due to rain i drops. Domestic Lightning.—Professor E. Locomis described a curiously electri fied house in Fourteenth Street, New lork, where the shuffling of a slipper across thick and heavy carpets pro duced a sudden and violent electrical discharge. The phenomena are ob served only where the house is large and dry, warmed by furnaces, and fur nished with heavy carpeting. Professor Agassiz held that the yoik is the animal itself already |v mg, t lough only in a very inferior condition. Electro-Magnetism as a Motive Force. In re g a >'d to the expense of the new power (see page G 77), Prof. Page, at New Haven said its remarkable cheap ness had been a matter of surprise even to himself. Ilis present estimate is, that twenty cents per day will be the cost of a horse power— that is, provu c cd the principle can be made to work for so long a period as twenty-four hours uninterruptedly. He had suc ceeded in operating a machine of four horse power three hours, but was as yet dubious of the continued power of t e uttei y, which is liable to attain its maximum at about this period, and then decrease in a similar ratio. The Prime Meridian.— The Naval Committee of the House of Represen tatives of Congress, guided by replies to circulars issued by the Committee on the Prune Meridian appointed at the Cambridge meeting last year, have deemed that the Greenwich zero of lon gitudes should be preserved for the con venience of navigators, and that the meridian of the National Observatory should be adopted by the authority of Congress as its first meridian on this continent for defining accurately and permanently territorial limits, arid for advancing the Science of Astronomy in America. J fermentation. — Mr. Erni’s investiga tions have led him to the conclusion that alcoholic fermentation is caused by the development of fungi. He could ne\er tiace fermation without ob serving, at the very first evolution of cai bonic acid, the formentation ofyeast cells, although it is very difficult to de cide cei tainly which precedes the other. He was rather in favour of the yeast cells being the original mover—the re- suits ot Mitscherlich’s experiments.— Air. Erni adduced u number of experi ments to show that different kinds of formentat on are due to different fungi. Dimorphism of Copper , deduced by -1’ Blake from the prod uctum of crys tals of copper in small hexagonal pn>ms the results of electrotype ex-; peuments; and from his having also sem a ciystal of native copper from < ; , t . 1 America—a hexagonal prism, pI T 4 1 an Qc “ 111 diameter. ° f Vermillion.

Some samples examined | did not contain a particle of mercury, yet strikingly resembled the pure arti cle. The principal adulterations used were chromate of lead, red lead, car bonate of magnesia, and sulphate of lime. Professor Horsford recommend ed as a test fur the purity of Vermillion, to apply the agency of heat until all the mercury present became volati ized. The residue consist i of impurities. The Aurora Borealis —Professor Olmsted’s paper on the late periodic visitation of the Aurora Borealis we shall give entire in a future number. The Grand Junction Canal of South America. —Mr. Squier mentioned, as a most interesting and important fact, not only as connected with the proposed work, cutting through the Isthmus of Panama, but with the whole question of steam navigation in the Pacific, that a large bed of coal had recently been discovered in San Salvador, on the banks of the river Lempa, about sixty miles from the Gulf of Fonseca. It is semi-bituminous in character, resem bling the Mount Savage Coal. He had sent specimens to the Department of State jn Washington. Coal Formation. —A communication by Professor Johnson, on the coal for mation of Central North Carolina, seemed to prove that there is a devel opment of Coal beds in America younger than the new red sandstone of Europe. Nest Building Fishes. —In Alai lie, upon the shores of Lake Labago, Pro fessor Agassiz observed the true phe nomenon of fish taking care of their young. While engaged in collecting insects along the shores of this lake, he was attracted by the actions of a couple of catfish, which, at his approach left the shore suddenly and returned to the deeper water. This movement be ing several times repeated, he was led to a closer observation. The peculiar black appearance of the place which the fishes had left, first attracted his I articular attention. Examining more closely, a nest was discovered, in which were discovered a number of little tad poles. These were at first taken for the tadpoles of frogs, and to test the attachment of the old fishes to the spot, Professor Agassiz took some pains to experiment upon them. Pausing for a few moments, the two fishes returned slowly and cautiously, looking anxious- ly towards the nest, to see if it had been disturbed. They approached to within six or eight feet of where the Professor stood ; he being very quiet, in order to observe their movements. They were evidently, he said, not in search of food; and he became con vinced that they were seeking the pro tection of their young. Large stones, threwn repeatedly into the middle of the ne<t, after these fishes had returned to it, only served to frighten them away for a brief period ; they invaria bly returned to the spot within ten or fifteen minutes afterward. This was repeated for the fourth and fifth time, with the same result. Exhibition of 1851. Prof. Walter R. Johnson, in a few remarks upon the ■‘Scientific Interest of the Industrial Exhibition of 1851,” urged the impor tance of the Association’s co-operation with the efforts now making, to render the United States a well-represented and valuable component of that exhi bition. Copies of the pamphlet issued at Washington, in respect to this mat ter were distributed among the audi ence. The American Association for the advancement of Science is to assemble next year at Albany, under the Presi dency of Professor Agassiz. 51 (fiolilft us I'mirlj. THE IRISH SEA SERPENT. On my arrival at Kinsale, faithful to your instructions to get a sight of the Sea Serpent at all hazards, I took a vessel, and put out instantly,in spite of wind and weather, both of which were dead against me, determined, as Mr. Roger W. Travers says, “to go any lengths” to satisfy myself and your readers of the existence of that mon ster. My desire was soon gratified. An object resembling the letter S, after the lapse of about three quarters of an hour, appeared in the horizon, and gradually neared us, getting larger as it approached. At the distance of a mile we could plainly see that it was an enormous reptile, but whether of the ophidian or sauren class we could not tell, till it had come close to us. Even then our zoological knowledge proved inadequate to its exact classifi cation. In your scientific opinion, we think it would have appeared very like one of the cetacea. Mr. Travers is in correct in stating that it is rather over than under thirty fathoms long. The reverse is the case, I should say, by an inch and six eigths. In diameter, it may be about seven feet, 1 will allow But the length and size of the Sea Serpent—for serpent, on the whole, it appears to be—are not half so wonder ful as its conformation, which sets eve ry canon of natural history at defiance. Depend upon it that comparative anat omy is all a delusion ; and that Pro fessor Owen, although he may be a re spectable man, deceives himself com pletely if he believes in that impos ture. The head of this anomalous inhabi tant of the deep, being covered with scales, in some measure resembles that of a reptile, and this similitude is height ened by the form of the snout, which is that of a crocodiles, though termi nating in a sort of trunk, like an ele phant’s. The mouth is full of long, sharp teeth, besides a pair of enormous fangs in the upper jaw. But the latter are like the canine teeth of a huge ape, and this mark of alliance to the si mite extends to the cranium, the frontal portion of which is as elevated as it is in the chimpanzee. In spite of the length of the jaw, therefore, the facial angle is considerable. Unlike any oth er reptile that 1 have ever seen or heard of, the Sea Serpent, moreover, has un deniable ears, which 1 can affirm, from close observation, are as conspicuous as those of an ass. Its eyecare furnished with moveable lids, as it proved by continually winking the left one, whilst it stopped looking at us. From the bloodshot appearance of this eye, lhave no doubt it was that which Mr. Tra vers and his friends fired their four balls into. The crown and nape of the neck, are surmounted, not with a mane, ‘as has been erroneously stated, but with a crest of feathers, and from above each eye protrude a species of horns, which the creature draws in and out like those of a snail. Its body was certainly not that of an eel. It had no gills at all ; its respira tory appai atus consisted in a series of spiracles, or breathing holes, arranged in a row on either side of it, along its whole length, marked by a line of a greenish hue. Above this line, and over the back, the integument had a leathery appearance ; below, it consist ed of scales of ilvery whiteness. Be tween the spiracles, of which there were forty in each row, were situated the organs of locomotion, being an al ternation of flappers and fins- Its tail was of a spiral form, like a corkscrew, and terminated in an apparatus of loose bones, the collision of which, I should have mentioned, proclaimed its ap proach when at least two miles off. It remained stationary on our larboard bow about ten minutes, and then sud denly dived and disappeared. Two large mammae, situated between the pectoral flappers, seemed to indi cate that the creature was a female. From the above description, the sci entific naturalist will discern that the Sea Serpent—the Irish variety at least —is a combination of a lizard, the ele phant, the ape, the cockatoo, the snail, the fish, the rattlesnake, and the cater pillar. On the anatomical difficulties involved in this complicated structure, 1 need not dilate, but, commend them to the consideration of the College of Surgeons. Whether for our amusement, or its own, the Sea Serpent, whilst under our inspection, kept alternately tying itself up in knots, and untying them, accom panying each contortion with a peculiar whistle. I had a capital opportunity of shooting it, which I waived, aware that you disapprove of the wanton destruc tion of animal life. Among the products of Austrian in genuity. which are to figure in the ex hibition of 1851, there will be exhibi ted an ingenious instrument (patron ized by Ilis Majesty the Emperor and King,) for flogging ladies. It has been found highly useful in the Milanese, and most effectual in Hungary. An Escape for the Rhine.— Gen eral Baron Haynau was not ducked at Cologne. 51 Column Crrrtrii to jfint. TO WHO! TO WHO!

Liquor made from the grape is port, but that made from malt and hops is porter. An exclamation of indifference is pooh, but a person in distress is poor.

If Ipounds make one hundred w eight, how mans will make your wife wait ? SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. HONESTY. A spice merchant of Constantinople, carrying a piece of fine cloth to a tai lor, desired to have a cloak and tunic made of it, and inquired if there was enough. The artist having measured the stuff, declared it sufficient, and then requested to know the cost of it. “ Five sequins,” replied the custom er, “was the price; and considering the quality, it is not at all dear.” The tailor mused a moment. “ I am but a beginner in trade,” said he to the spice dealer at length, “and ; money is an object to me. Give me I two sequins and 1 will show you how you may save three in this affair.” “ I agree,” said the other, and the money was produced and paid. “ It is well,” said the man of the nee dle—“l am a person of my word. — The cloth has cost five sequins, and I have promised to save you three. — Take it to some other taiior, and Al lah direct you to one of more experi ence—for I have never made such a dress as you want, and if I attempt to it will be spoiled.” Part of the Prize Song. —A wag gish friend writes us : “ You are one of the ‘Jenny Lind Song’ committee. I want forty dollars for the inclosed. It is the first verse of a song which I know must take the prize; and ifyou’ll send me the two double ‘saw-buck’ you shall have the rest of the two hundred dollars’ worth pretty soon : ‘Welcome,.Jenny Lind ! Swedish Nightingale! May you escape the wind, The lightning and the gale !’ This verse was composed in less than half a dav, and on a sultry August af ternoon at that; and that same night, before twelve o’clock, I’d halfcomposed another almost as good !” The eccentric Dr. Byles had, at one time a remarkably stupid Irish girl as a domestic. With a look and voice of terror, he said to her in haste—“ Go and tell your mistress that Dr.Byles has put an end to himself.” The girl flew up stairs, and, with a face of hoiror, said at the top of her lungs—“ Dr. Byles has put end to himself!” The astonish ed wife and daughter rushed into the parlour —and there was the Doctor, calmly walking about with a part of a cow’s tail, that lie had picked up in the street, tied to his coat or eossack be hind. The following question is said to have created tremendous excitement before the Hardscrabble Debating Institution: “W hat is the difference between there being conscience enough in all women and women enough in all conscience?” After three week’s discussion, the pre sident decided “there was a difference, but wherein it consisted he was quite uncertain.” We once heard of a young lady who said there were but two things which, O 7 on looking over her past life she regret ted ; and one of these was, that she did not eat more cake when her sis'er Fan ny was married ! Probably the other was, that it wasn’t her wedding cake, in stead of Fanny’s. “Look Up!” said an Admiral to a darling son,who had climbed to the top mast of the vessel, and was already diz zy—the boy obeyed, and was saved. Young man, look up, and you will suc ceed. Never look down and despair. Leave danger uncared for, and push on.

CAUTlON.—Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil lott’s style or Label, Ins 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 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 parlies 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 Ins Steel Pens to the highest state or perpeu. thin, and the liberalpatronape which h hgs long enjoyed at the hands of the American public, will incite him to con. tinued exertion to maintain the favor wlnrfe he has ae nuwed HENRY OWEN.
