The Daisy blossoms on the rocks, Amid the purple heath ; It blossom-* on the river’s banks, That thrids the glen beneath ; The Eagle, at his pride of place, Beholds it by his nest; And, in the mead, it cushions soft The lark’s descending breast. 11. Before the Cukoo, earliest Spring Its silver circlet knows, When greening buds begin to swell, And zephyr melts the snows ; And when December’s breezes howl Along the moorlands bare, And only blooms the Christmas rose, The Daisy still is there ! 111. Samaritan of flowers ! to it All races are al.ke, The Switzer on his glacier height,— The Dutchman by his dyke,— The sealskin vested Esquimaux, Begirt with icy seas—, And underneath, his burning noon, The parasol’d Chinese. IV. The emigrant on distant shore, Mid scenes and faces strange, Beholds it flowering in the sward, Where’er his foot-tops range ; And when his yearning, homesick heait Would bow to its de-pair, It reads his eye a lesson sage— That God is every where ! V. Stars are the Daisies that begem The blue fields of the sky, Beheld by all and everywhere; Bright prototypes on high : Bloom on, then, unpretending flowers ! And to the waverer be An emblem of St. Paul’s content, St. Steven’s constancy. # AGNES MAY. I kissed her lip and left her side, In spring’s young balmy time, When etery blossom seems a bride, And waters flow in rhyme. The birds were warbling in the bow’rs, Tne dew slept on the spray, And nature sought in vain with flowers . o rival Agnes May. When winter from its silent wing Hud shed the stainless snow, And crowned each forest tree a king, And sealed the wild brook’s flow, My footsteps sought her quiet home, But sadly turned away— Alas ! that I should live to come And find not Agnes May. She sleeps beneath the withered grass And knows not I am there, To cheat the tardy hour’s that pass, And mourn my 30 ,r ow’s prayer. They say again the Spring shall be, And make the mourners gay— Alas ! that were no spring to me, That brought not Agnes May. fur tjir REPRODUCTION OF VEGETABLE FORMS. In a number of the London Mechan ic's Magazine is the following curious statement, said to be an extract from a work of Oetinger, entitled, “Thoughts on the two Faculties of Feeling and Knowing: (j , ‘‘l chopped up some balm, put it into a large glass retort, poured rain water upon it, connected the. retort with a good sized receiver, and let it heat at a cuppel, gently at first,then more strong ly. Upon this there went into the wa ter a yellow-greenish oil; it took up the whole space of the receiver, and swam on the water the thickness of the back of a table knife. Th is oil had the foim of innumerable balm leaves, which did not lap over or run into one anoth er, but lay side by side, each perfectly diawn and with the distinctness of ail the lines of a balm leaf. I let it stand a long time,that all about me might ob serve it. At last I shook the receiver, because I had to pour it out; the leaves ran together, but in less than a minute restored themselves to their former position more distinctly.” A writer in the Magazine follows this quotation by saying : “Chemists show that the palingenese (being born again) or the resurection ot plants is very possible. Able che mist: in great numbers have made ex periments, by which, placing the ashes of a plant in a vial, these ashes exhale and arrange themselves as they can in the very figure which the Author of nature first impressed upon them. “Gafierel a very able chemist, states that M. Duchine, one of the best chem ists of the age, reported that he had seen a very able physician in Cracow, who kept in vials ashes of almost all plants, so that when any curious per son desired to see, for example, a rose in a phial, he took one, containing the ashes of a rose well preserved, and wanning it over a lighted candle, after becoming warm the ashes were seen to be in motion. A little cloud arose and after some motion of the nhial, soon assumed the form and colour of the rose, so fresh, and so perfect and beautiful that one would believe he could smell its sweet odour.” HOE SUPERSEDED. Galignani s Messenger gives the re sult of an examination, by a party of scientific persons, of anew printing machine, invented by M. Worms, of Paris. It is destined to effect an entire revolution in this department of indus try, It is called the rotative press, and prints from stereotype,instead of types. Its chief advantages consists in its oc cupying a very small space; its capabil ity of being worked by hand; its sim plicity and compactness; the absence of tapes and guiders; and the extraor dinary fact that, in feeding it, the la bour of three men is equal to that of sixteen ordinary presses. Connected with it, is a means of stereotyping which overcomes most, of the labour and time of the usual process. The mould for the stereotype is made of tissue paper, with a couple of sheets of common paper at the back, to give strength. The paper is wetted, and pressed on type. The mould is then dried, and placed on a cylinder. The metal is very liquid, flows rapidly over the mould, and, by the application of a C °i m s P un ß e ’ hecoms instantly solid, lhe mould is then removed, and transferd to the cylinder of the machine, ready for printing. The stereotyping occupies fifteen or twen ty minutes, lhe sheets of paper are not laid on sep era tely, for printing. A continuous sheet equal to 2,000, or more, sheets of a newspaper is rolled turns,the plate on the printing cylinder is upon a cylinder, and as the machine fed, and, by the action of the machine, the paper is divided and folded. Even the wetting of the paper is obviated, for it is placed on the press as it comes from the paper maker. Fifteen thou sand copies of a journal can be printed in one hour. It is asserted that twenty years service will scazeely reduce the sharpness of the letters. Grapevines.. —Almost every body now-a-days has a vine either Isabella or Catawba ; but not one half of us ev er get a good crop of grapes. The dif ficulty, when the seasons are long enough, is pretty much all owing to the ignorance of pruning—for pruning is to a grape vine what a pond is to young ducks, something not to be done with out. The two great mistakes in pru ning hardy grapes,is not cutting enough wood in the winter pruning, and cut ting too much in the summer pruning. If you wish to have your vine thrive and well open to the sun, prune it as clean in February or March as you please if you wish to stunt and dimin ish the size of your crop of grapes by one-half, delay summer pruning till they are as a large as marrow fat peas, and then making slashing work of it. Os course, in this way you will take off about a third of all the young leaves and give a check to the plant, like a jog on a Railroad, made by throwing a lo comotive off the track. But you have “let the sun into the grapes,” and the grapes will thank you for it, by grow ing about half as fast and two thirds as large, us they would have done if you had shortened the shoots ten days ear lier and taken off about half as much. The grape leaf likes the hottest sun— but nature hung the clusters of fruit un der the shade ofthe foliage, and if you won’t take the hint from her, she will set you to thinking why your vines “turn out so poorly.” If you find that your soil is poor, and if the crop does not act and swell off properly, give them a good dose of soap suds or li quor manure, at the roots once a week. Grape vines are cormorants, and if you want large and fine fruit, you must give them no homoeopathic doses of manure. 51 (Pnhlrt nf I'unrl). AMERICAN ELECTRICITY. It would rather astonish the world if the Presidency of the British Associ ation for the Advancement of Science should be filled, at the next meeting of that Congress of Philosophy, by Mr. Punch. All however, that Mr, Punch can say is, that there is a cor responding Society, of which he con siders himself to be the fittest person living for the Chairman. The learned body here alluded to is the American counterpart to our own, which blends amusement with instruction, observant of the Horatian adage respecting sea sonable tomfoolery. The American Association for the Advancement of Science trims the Professor’s cap with bells, and its President occasionally sits with his tongue in his cheek, list ening to a lecture, whose thumb is at the tip of his nose. This is a statement requiring corroboration; which shall follow, on authority no less trust worthy than that of our grave contern porary, the Athenaeum , given under the regular head of “Scientific Gossip.” “The American Association for the Advancement es Science has been hol ding its third Annual Meeting, at Newhaven, under the Presidency of Prof. A. D. Bache. * * * A communication was made by Prof. Loomis, of novel, and to us curious, phenomena ofelectrical houses. 11 is statement was as follows : ‘ Within a few years past, several houses in the city ofNew-York have exhibited electrical phenomena in a very remarkable degree. For months in succession they have emitted sparks of considerable intensity, accompanied by a loud snap. A stranger, on enter ing one of these electrical houses, in attempting to shake hands with the inmates, receives a shock, which is quite noticeable and somewhat un pleasant.’ ” The unscientific reader, who may not see the fun of all this, is to know that to be chargeable with electricity a house would require to be made of glass or resin. That the shock would be received immediately on touching the knocker, and that as its force would be equivalent to that of a small Hash of ligtning, the recipient would be electrified once for all. The next joke is more passable. “Ladies, in attempting to kiss each other, are saluted by a spark.” Very likely, if ladies will do such things in the presence of gentlemen. But to proceed with this tissue of shocking stories: “A spark is perceived whenever the hand is brought near to the knob of a door, the gilded frame of a mirror, the gas-pipes, or any metallic body, espe cially when this body communicates freely with the earth.” When Franklin got a spark from the string of his kite, he intercepted its communication with the earth by a non-conducting medium, and precisely owing to such communication have lighting conductors hitherto conveyed elecrricity harmlessly away. Jerking of course his thumb over his left shoulder, the Professor contin ued, addressing his no doubt winking audience: — “In the house which I have had the opportunity to examine, a child in ta king hold of the knob of a door, re c ived so severe a shock that it ran off in great fright. The lady of the house in approaching the speaking tubes to give orders to the servants, received a very unpleasant shock in the mouth, and was much annoyed by the elec tricity, until she learned first to touch the tube with her finger. In passing from one parlour to the other, if she chance to step upon the brass plate which serves as a slide to the folding doors 1 she receives an unpleasant shock in the foot.” Let the reader who has any doubt about the possibility of the last-men t.oned fact, get an electrical machine, and endeavour to electrify any given brass plate let into any given floor — except a glass or resinous one. The result of his experiment will be pre cisely equivalent to that of whistling a jig to a milestone, or of remonstra ting with Government on the inequal ity of the Income Tax. The funniness of Professor Loomis’ facts is nearly equalled by the drollery of his theory to account for them!— SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. “After a careful examination of sev eral cases of this kind, I have come to the conclusion that the electricity is created by the friction of the shoes of the inmates on the carpets of the house.” Punch need hardly observe that so extraordinary a consequence of walking must be all Walker. In order to the generation of a quantity of electricity sufficient to produce the alleged effect , by the means specified—“ sich a git tin’ up stairs” as mortal “never did siv” would he indispensable. Professor Loomis and his scientific associates might test the practicability of the thing by an hour’s exercise on a gi gantic treadmill, carpet id with wool or velvet—which, lie states, are the ma terials of the carpets of his electrical houses. And if he can electrify any house hut an insulated one, Mr. Punch will eat him, boots and all, or, what will perhaps he more pleasant to the Proefssor, his boots without himself, and will invite Professor Loomis to Greenwich to dine at the same time off” electrical cels. Improve your Ways in Chancery. We read that the Chancery suit of Attorney-General v. Trevelyan, has al ready lasted 1(H) years. A great out cry has been raised about improving chancery Lane. It is all very w ell, hut it strikes us as beginning at the wrong end. Is there not another Lane, as long, more tortuous in its windings, much narrower in all its ways, and which causes much greater obstruction, than Chancery Lane? hi fact it is a long Lane that has no turning, except ing to the workhouse. The reader will already have guessed that we allude to the Court of Chancery. Does that re quire no improvement? We should like to see a little agitation raised to pull down a few of the instructions that cause the cruel delays which take place every year in it. Imagine being detained waiting IGG years! What are a few-minutes lost in an omnibus, or a quarter-of ati-hour wasted inside a comfortable carriage, compared to a monster delay like that! Chancery Lane is doubtlessly a great nuisance; hut it is swallowed up, like a cock in the Maelstrom, in the whirl pool of the Court of Chancery. Im prove your Lane by all means, but do not forget the poor people who are wandering up and down that narrow Court, and have no means of getting out of it. In short, since public at tention has been directed to the matter, our cry is, “Improve all your Lanes in Chancery.” “ The Decline of England.” —We only know one instance, and that is, England’s declining to buy Monsieur Ledru Rollin’s book. 3 Column (Prrrtrii to jftin. EFFECTS < )F PI NCH DRINKING. One particular dark, drizzly, damp, dull, and disagreeable day, in the lat ter part of November, A. D., 184*2, a tall, gaunt, queer looking customer, dressed in blue coat with metal but tons, a brimstone coloured vest, and ! plaid pantaloons, with calf-skin termi nations, sat solemnly and alone, in a little room, situated in a certain little tavern in street, in the city f Philadelphia. Before him was a little round table, on whose marble top was not a little pitcher of smoking punch, “screeching hot,” and a wine-glass. The solitary individual was “York,” — nothing else, dear child, and that was his second pitcher full—nigh his second pitcher empty. Due minute after,and you could’nt squeeze a drop out of ei ther pitcher or glass by a forty-two ! pound hydraulic press. York rang the bell. The waiter poked his head in at the door : “Ring, sa? “Os course I did. Is it clearing off?” No, sa—damp, sa—fog so thick, sa, you could ladle it up with a spoon, sa. Have anything, sa!” “ More punch, and strong?” “Yes sa —immediately, sa.” The waiter withdrew, and in a few seconds the third pitcher stood before our hero, who attacted it zealously. York had just, drained the last glass fiom the pitcher, and was beginning to feel glorious, when on raising his eyes, he saw his own figure in a large pier glass directly opposite. lie rubbed his eyes, winked, stared, coughed, and rubbed his eyes again. “By Jove,” said he, “there’s some fellow sitting right before me. This is a private room for my sole accommo drtion-” He waited a moment expecting an swer, but the reflection in the glass on ly stared him, and held its peace. “1 was saying, sir, that this is my private room—mine, sir,” cried York- j fetching his voice an octave higher I than before. Ao answer made, and he rang the bell furiously. The waiter made his appearance again. “ Ring, sa ?” “Yes, 1 did ring. Did’nt 1 ask for a private room ?” “ Yes, sa, this is a private room.” “It is! why there’s a fellow sitting right before me now, on the other side of the table—rot his imj udence.” “Table, sa, fellow, sa.” “ Yes, there is—well—never mind. Bring me some more punch and two glasses.” “Yes. sa —immediately, sa.” In a very short time the fourth pitch er, with the two glasses, made its ap pearance. York filled one of the glasses and shoved it over the table. “Will you drink, sir?” said he, ad dressing the figure in the glass. “Oh you won’t drink, old fellow,” continued he. “ Your liquor is getting cold, and you look as if you were fond of the thing.” No answer being returned, York finished the pitcher, and rang the bell again. In popped the waiter. “ Ring, sa ?” “To be sure I did. Did’nt you hear the b-b-bell?” “ I did.” “ Did'nt I order a p-p-private room, eh ?” “Yes, sa—this is a private room, sa.” “ A pretty private room this is, with a f-f-f-fellow sitting opposite there, who won’t take a glass of purtch when it is offered him—and a red nose at that! Oh, never mind. I’ll try him again.” Presently pitcher No. V., with tum blers to match, was borne in with due state. “ B-b-better t try some, old chap,” said York, coaxingly, to his double. ‘Hie refiex merely looked good na tured, but said nothing. “Well,” said York, “if that is’nt the most infamous —well, never mind, I’ll drink the punch,” and so he did, every drop of it. About five minutes, sufficed to end the pitcher. York rung the hell superfuriously. The waiter came. “ Ring, sa ?” “ Why, certain ! why should’nt 1? \\ here’s the m-m-man who k k-keeps this house ?” “ Boss, sa—l'll send ’irn in.” Shortly after, mine host, a quiet looking little man, with a mottled cali co-patterned face, and a shining bald head, made his appearance. “ W-w-what’s to pay ?” demanded York, rising, and assuming an air of dignity. “ Five punches-five levies, sir.” “ There’s the money, sir,” said York, forking over the coin. “ And now I wan’t to know why, when I call for a p-p-p-private room, you should put me here with somebody else ?” “There’s nobody here hut you and | I, sir-” “ Nobody ! do you s-s-suppose I can't see? Do you th-th-think I’m drunk ? There—look there, two of them, by jingo!” “ W ell sir, I must confess I don’t see any hut two.” “Youcan’t eh?” and York dragged the landlord to the table. “Look | there,” continued he, pointing to the glass. “ Th-th-there’s the rascals now. One of eni’s enough like you to he your brother, and the other’s the d—d est, Lord-forsaken, meanest looking white man I ever saw!” EXTRAORDINARY. “ Ah ! Mr. C , when did you re turn from Roekaway ?” “ Just arrived, sir.” “ Any news ?” “None of importance—caught a shark to-day.” “ Ah ! how long was it ?” “Twenty-five feet, sir!” “ I low much did it weigh ?” “ Eleven tons and a half!” By this time the listeners gathered close about C , hut not a smile was to be seen upon his countenance, or anything to denote that he was tel ling aught but the truth. “By the way, Major,” continued C. I forgot to tell you that we had found the New-York Brass Band. You recol lect when I came up last week, I told you they took their instruments with them and went out in a sail boat. The boat was seen to capsize, and they were supposed to he lost; but when we captured the shark we caught to day, we fourd them all alive and hear ty, their liquor bottle empty, and Pe terson, the bugler, sitting near the gills, playing, “ Come rest in this bosom!” The following ticket has been nomi nated, and from present appearances, it is the most popular that could be named. All who vote for Barnum will doubtless be permitted to visit his Museum gratis: FOR PRESIDENT, j MADEMOISELLE JENNY LIND. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, PETER T. BARNUM. ♦ •*- “Dans, who do you vote for?” “ I votes for de beeples, I do.” “ Well, but what candidate?” “ Der Governor.” “ What Governor ?” “ Him what gits elected mit do bal lot box, dis next vear been ein fort | night!” E rulings nt Enniioiii. There’s a place in the pineries of Wisconsin, called “ Hell’s North Kitchen.” Oh! “ Let us prey,” said a fox to his wife, as they entered a farm-yard at | night. The Frost saw the pretty flower, and sought to marry. “Wilt thou ?” said the Frost, and the Flower wilted. “Sumtims,” says sumbody, speaking of Mrs. Shum, his mistress, “Sum times I get kisses, and sumtimes I get kix.” “ Cimon, did you ever take an emet ic?” “ Yes, one ; and blow me if I would take another if I could have it for nothing.” The man who got drunk on small beer, and tried to cut his throat with a red herring, has had his sentence com j muted. Giving her Jesse.— The Hutchin sons have called upon Jenny Lind, and sung a welcome to her, composed by Jesse. We read in an Alabama paper, an account of a grand “36 30 Ball.” This is anew mode of agitating, and bound to be popular with the ladies. Mr. Marcus, of Liverpool, adverti ses a railway trip, giving ticket hold ers “sixteen clear days in London.” An astronomer remarks that Mr. Marcus is evidently no star-gazer. “The British Empire, sir,” exclaim ed a John Bull to Jenatlian, “is one on which the sun never sets.” “And one,” replied Jonathan, “on ‘‘on which the tax-gatherer never goes to bod.” A “Perfect” Joke.— “ What is the reason ol a blow leaving a blue mark after it 1” asked an inquiring young gentleman. “Its easilvaccounted for,” answered * • a medical student, who was reading Boll’s Life; “for you know that Blow in the perfect makes Blew.” After Jenny Lind had concluded her second Concert in Philadelphia, and returned to her room, a servant came bearing an ice cream made in the shape of a lyre surmounted by a nightj ingale. Jenny received it “coldly.” What are the most unsociable things in the world ? Milestones—you never see two of them together.

CAUTlON.—Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil i.ott’b style of 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 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 eases where his N timbers 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 lias enabled Mr. Gillott to ring his Steel Pens to the highest state of perfec tion, and the liberal patronage which he has long enjoyed at the handsof theAmeriean public,will incite him to con tinued exertion to maintain the favor which he has ac quired HENRY OWEN Agent.
