A REQUIEM.
BY MRS. H. J- LEWIS.
Bending near the altar dim,
Breath a low funereal hymn
For a young soul called away
Ere the noon-tide of its day.
For the sleeper on the bier
Drop no more regretful tear.
Lo ! the tranquil dust you see
Is but dust —the soul is free !
Earth one bounding step hath lost;
Busy hands are sohly crossed ;
Eyes whose gleams were spirit-born,
Ope no more to greet the morn ;
Lips, once wreathed with smiles, are now’
Pale as is the sleeper’s brow,
And their tones of love were hushed
In the storm that o’er us rushed.
Give the sleeper back to God !
Dust to mingle with the sod,
Soul to rise on cherub’s wings
To the source whence comfort springs.
She by death w'as not dismayed—
’Twas but passing through the shade
To the land where such have rest
On the gentle Saviour’s breast.
Stormy was the road she trod,
But it led her back to God !
MOWN.
By the strange beating of my heart,
Finding no place for all its joy—
By those soft tears that wet my cheek,
Like dew drops from the summer sky—
By this wild rush through every vein
This choked and trembling tone,
Surcharged with bliss it cannot tell—
I feel thou art my own.
And yet it cannot all be true,
I’ve dreamed a ihousaud wilder dreams;
But this is brighter wdlder far,
Phan even the wildest seems,
I’ve dreamed of wondrous spirit climes,
Os glories and ot blisses won ;
But ne’er before did vision come,
To say thou we t my own !
My own ! my own! thus gazing on,
My life-breath seems to ebb away ;
And o’er and o’er and still again,
The same dear words I say !
I know—l know’ it must be true,
And here with heaven and love alone,
I hold thee next rny heart of hearts,
For thou ait all my own !
THE BIRD’S SONG.
ONE OF JENNY LIND’S MOST POPULAR SONGS.
Birdling ! why sing in the forest wide ?
Say why ! say why !
Call’st thou the Bridegroom or the Bride ?
And why ? and why ?
“ I call no Bridegroom—call no Bride,
Although I sing in the forest wide,
Nor know I why I’m singing.”
Birdling ! why is thy heart so blest ?
Oh say ! oh say !
Music o’erflowing from thy breast ?
Oh say ! oh say !
“My heart is full—and yet is light,
My heart is glad in day or night,
Nor know I why I’m singing.”
Birdling ! why sing you all the day ?
Oh tell! oh tell!
Do any listen to thy lay ?
Oh tell! oh tell!
“I care not w'hat my song may be,
Now this, now that, I warble free,
Nor know, yet must be singing.”

SPECTACLES.
A simple Hibernian, who knew not
one letter from another, once bought
a pair of spectacles to enable him to
read ; and we must say that there are
thousands who, if they do not buy spec
tacles for the same object as Paddy,
yet they have no more knowledge con
cerniyg their nature and true office
than he. A pair of spectacles is an
optical instrument, which is made from
a knowledge of the laws of light. The
minutest point of an illuminated ob
ject darts out its rays in all directions,
like the spokes of a wheel, and strike
the eye through the whole extent of
its outer surface: millions of points of
light are discharged upon the eye, and
its office is to reduce these rays to order.
A ray bends when it enters anew sub
stance,if that substance is rarer or dens
er than the substance through which it
passed before. The eye gathers as it
were, the spreading rays into a bundle,
till they meet in a point, like that from
which they started. The eye, therefore,
bends the rays of light, and brings them
to a focus, and the picture of an object
must be painted on the retina, at the
back of the eye, therefore the rays of
light must not be brought together be
fore the retina, nor behind it, but
upon it, otherwise the sight will
confounded ; it is this confusion of sight
which spectacles are designed to cor
rect. In advancing years the eyes lose
a part of their bending power, for the
ball and crystalline lens get flatter, and
their globular shape has a principal
share in producing the effect. The
rays are not drawn inwards with suffi
cient force, and arrive at the retina be
fore they can meet in a point. A curv
ed glass operates upon light like the
eye itself, but interposed before it does
a portion of its work. The rays are
bent in passing through the glass, and
the eye, which was incompetent to the
entire task, is able to complete what
the glass begins. \\ hen the organ is
nearly equal to its duty, a slight curva
ture, just enough to make good the
deficiency, is given to the spectacles,
and as the eye fails, there rotundity is
increased; an exact proportion is thus
kept up between the demand of nature
and the supply of art.
Though near objects require specta
cles to show- them distinctly, those
more distant may be seen in perfection
without their assistance. Since the rays
of light from a point keep separating
as they travel, all which bianchout wide
ly, are soon too far asunder to fall
within the narrow circle of the eye.
The least divergent alone hit it, and
these are the easiest reduced to union.
But an eye brought close to the object
catches the divergent rays at there source
and, if its capabilities are diminish
ed, is unable to master them. Here
spectacles are a necessary aid, while
the lesser task is readily performed by
the naked eye. One of the earliest in
dications of an alteration in sight is
the holding a book further off than be
fore, to get rid of the unmanageable
part of the light.
Some eyes, which are over-round, re
fract the rays in excess, and bring them
to a focus in front of the retina ; the re
sult is shortness of sight. The eye
must come nearer to what it wants to
distinguish, and imbibe those spreading
rays which demand an additional bend
ing equal to its own superfluity of
power. Hollowed or concave glasses
obviate the need for greater proximity.
As round or convex spectacles draw in
the rays, so these turn them out till
there increased divergence is equivalent
to the superior force of the eye. Thus
spec’ acles are a remedy for opposite de
fec.s One sees obscurely what is un
der Ins nose—another is blind to all
that is not.— Sci. American.
Pumping a Lake Dry. —Dr. J. V.
C. Smith, the editor of the Boston Med
ical Surgical Journal , who is now on
a visit to Europe, gives an interesting
description, in his editorial correspon
dence from Holland, of the manner in
which the Lake of Haarlem is being
drained by steam engines, and its wa
ters sent to the sea.
“Six miles from Amsterdam is the
inland lake of Haarlem, ‘2l miles long
by 11 in width, which, three hundred
years ago, was found to be preceptibly
increasing bv shooting its waters fur
ther and further, and covering up the,
land, threatening the first commercial
port of the realm with destruction by
flowing in upon its bank. Various
schemes at that remote epoch were de
vised by able counsellors to stay the
threatening danger. Three Ducth en
gineers, of acknowledged abillity, pro
posed draining oflf the water, first rais
ing it by wind mills. They are entitled
to remembrance, from having suggest
ed the plan adopted in 1849 for avert
ing an impending calamity.
Seven years since, delay being no
longer safe, a canal was dug around the
whole circumference of the lake, aver
aging “200 feet in width by ten deep.
Three monster engines are housed on
the sides of the lake, some six or eight
miles apart, each moving eight mon
strous pumps. All the pistons are raised
at once, at every revolution of machine
ry raising 15,000 gallons of water, which
is emptied into the canal, whence it is
hastened on by a fourth engine faster
than it would otherwise move to the
Zuyder Zee, and thus it reaches the sea,
fifteen miles distant. In April, 1849,
the pumps worked by three of the
mightiest steam engines perhaps ever
constructed, were set in motion, and up
to this, July 25th, have lowerd the con
tents of the lake seven feet. By next
April it is anticipated that the bottom
will be fairly exposed, and all the wa
ter conveyed away from this ancient
basin. All this is executed at the ex
pense of Goverment”
How to get to Sleep is to many per
sons a matter of high importance. Nerv
ous persons,who are troubled with wake
fulness and excitability, usually have a
strong tendency of blood to the brain,
with cold extremities. The pressure
of blood on the brain keeps it in a sti
mulated or wakeful state, and the pul
sations in the head on lying down are
painful. Let such rise, chafe the body
and extremities with a crash towel, or
rub smartly with the hands, to promote
uniform circulation, and withdraw the
excessive amount from the brain, and
they will fall asleep in a few moments.
A cold bath or sponge bath, and rub
bing, or a good run, or rapid walk in the
open air, or goi> g up or down stairs a
few times, just before retiring, will aid
in equalizing circulation and promoting
sleep. These rules are simple,and easy
of application in castle or cabin, and
may minister to the comfort of thou
sands who would freely expend money
for an anodyne to promote ‘nature’s
sweet restorer, balmy sleep.’ So says
somebody ; we don’t know who.
Wine Making. —Gather the grapes
when very ripe; pick ofl’ the unsound
and unripe berries. The bunches are
then mashed in a mashing tub, or press
ed through a small mill, breaking skin
but not the seed, and thrown into the
press, and the screw applied until the
skins are pressed dry.
Fermentation is very simple. The
juce is put into clean casks, in a cool cel
lar, and the casks filled within about
four or five inches of the bung and the
bung put on loosely. The gas escapes,
but the wine does not run over. In
from two to four weeks, generally, the
fermentation ceases, and the wine clears;
then till up the casks and tighten the
bungs. In February or March, rack
off into clean casks. In the spring, a mo
derate fermentation will again take
place; after that, the wine refines itself,
and is ready for bottling or barreling.
Use no brandy or sugar, if the grapes
are sound and well ripened. Keep bun
ged up or corked tight, and in a cool
cellar, and the wine will improve by
age for many years.— Sci. American.

It is said there is a man down town
so lean and thin that he can’t feel him
self in a dark night.
A clergyman told an Indian he should
love his enemies. “ I do,” said the lat
ter, “for 1 love rum and cider.”
A lady asked her physician if snuff
was injurious to the brains? “No,”
said he, “for nobody who has any
brains ever takes snuff.”
The figures expressing the number
of these United States have at last
changed, the old “ 13” is turned round
into 31.
A Kentucky editor, strongly opposed
to camp meetings, says he has no no
tion of “camping out on his road to
heaven.”
“lam like Balaam,” said a dandy
on meeting pretty girl in a passage,
“stopped by an angel.” “And 1 am
like the angel,” said she, “stopped by

“Jim, does your mother ever whip
you?” “No; but she does a precious

“ Why she washes my face every

A movement has been made in Phil
adelphia, with a view of establishing a
school of design for women.
An’t there designing women enough

The original Mrs. Partington re
marked to us, quite recently, that there
were so many intimations of her, now
a-days, she hardly knew 7 how to indem

“Tom, stand out of the way of that

“ How do you know he is a gentle

“ Because he has got on striped trow

SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE.
51 Ueulilrt of
A REGULAR ( H A MMER. “
A recent advertisement in the Times
commenced as follows;
“A lady of the highest qualifica
tions is desirous of a bed-room and
dinner.”
We presume the “ highest qualifica
tions” must be construed as applying
to the “dinner,” and we may infer,
therefore, that the “ lady ” is blest with
an awful appetite. Taking this into
consideration, we suspect that the ad
vertiser will meet with very few who
would not prefer her room—that is to
say, the bed-room she is in want of—
to her company. One might as well
admit a young wolf int* one’s family
as a lady “desirous of a dinner,” and
possessing the “highest qualifications”
with regard to it. When poor little
Cuffey, the Chartist captive, was asked
hew he liked the prison fare, he can
didly declared his ability to “dispose
of more;” but the avowal of the ad
uertising lady is still more to the point,
and if we let lodgings, we should differ
from Othello in thinking it a hardship
to be able to “call such delicate crea
tures ours, but not their appetites.
LAYING THE DUST.
Ladies can, we know, sometimes go
to very great lengths in dress ; but the
gown has lately got to such a pitch,
and so much latitude is taken in the
way of longitude, that there is no
knowing where it will end. We have
found, occasionally, very great incon
venience in our walks, by following,as
excursionists, such a train as that which
female fashion seems to entail on all its
votaries. It says as little for the ankles
as it does for the understandings of the
fair sex of the present day, that they
are compelled to hide their bad feet by
at least one yard of superfluous dra
pery. In addition to the untidy and
unsightly character of the proceeding,
the dust raised is so great a nuisance,
that every lady appearing in the cos
tume of the period ought to be com
pelled to have a page in attendance,
with a watering-pot, wherever she goes.
THE SUMMIT OE HIS AMBITION.
Louis Napoleon is busy practising in
climbing a Mdt de Cocagne. The hoop
on the summit is festooned with legs
and shoulders of ham and large joints
of cold veal, and embellished with a
beautiful garland of bottles of Cham
pagne. The whole is surmounted with a
glittering prize of the Imperial I )iadem.
Louis Napoleon practices several hours
a day in climbing this greasy pole,
which is stationed for his especial study
in one of the inner Courts of the Ely
see, but he begins to find “ how hard it
is to climb,” and that he makes but
little way with all his violent attempts
at progress. He still clings to the
slippery hope, however, of being able,
by the time the next election for Presi
dent, comes on, to get to the top of the
Pole!
THE STATE OF THE SERPEN
TINE.
Quidnuncs used to inquire What’s
in the Wind 1 ? but the question that
really waits for solution in these days
is, What’s in the Water? The Ser
pentine is a subject that now invites
inquiry, hut we are not at all disposed
to go deeply into it. Its bed is in such
a dirty state, that a clean sheet of wa
ter is thrown away upon it, and when
the public apply to the Commissioners
of Woods and Forests, the only an
swer returned is a wet blanket. It
lias been proposed to draw off public
indignation from the Serpentine by
drawing ofl’ the water altogether, hut
there is something at the bottom of all
this, which renders it unsafe to try the
experiment.
SHALL ENGLAND SWALLOW
THE LEEK?
An attempt is being made to get up
a sort of political excitement in Wales,
in favour of the Welsh language; and
Ap Somebody, whose name begins with
half-a-dozen gutturals, supported in the
centre by three or four W’s, and end
ing with a rush of labials, wants to
know, in reference to the adoption of
plain English in Wales, “whether the
W elsh tongue is to he torn out by the
roots.” We have no wish for such an
act of violence ; but, all we have to say
is, that the Welsh tongue does not at
all suit the English palate.
STRANGE, BUT TRUE.
We have been told—for really our
ignorance of Debreet’s Peerage almost
amounts to an insult to the House of
Lords—that the English title of the
Duke of Athol 1 is “Lord Strange.”—
This is, to say the least, very strange;
but, at all events, no one can call the
liberal-minded Duke—considering the
habit he lias of blocking up public
thoroughfares,and closing everything—
“ Loud Passing Strange.”
How to Rise in France.— The way
to rise in France is to take your stand,
early in life, on an inkstand. The
shortest cut to the Chamber is through
an editor’s room. To become a leader,
you must have been in the habit of
tossing off one every day, in some
newspaper or other. The best plan of
gaining a portfolio is to prove you are
possessed of a pen; and, the portfolio
once gained, it depends upon the power
of your pen how long you can keep it.
Every Frenchman, as soon as he lias
learnt to write, carries a portfolio in
his head.
Temperance Wine. —There is a wine
advertised, called “Exhibition Wine.”
This is an unhappy title, we think, for
w hat man in his senses w ould drink
much of a wine that, with every sip he
took, held up before his eyes the re
proving word “Exhibition?” He would
naturally count his glasses, lest, from
drinking too much, he should ultimate
ly make an Exhibition of himself.
Charity Begins After Dinner.—
That peculiar kind of Charity which
excels in eating a dinner and giving a
subscription after it r has been ably
characterized by a waiter at the Lon
don Tavern as “The-Knife-and-Fork
out-Charity.”
No Thoroughfare. — A Court is
generally a cul-de-sac. This is why w 7 e
call Chancery a Court; because when a
person once gets into the Court of
Chancery, he never can find his way
out of it.
The Leading French Actor.—A
man ought to be a good actor to govern
the French; and some say that Louis
Napoleon plays his part, as President
of that melodramatic people, pretty
well. But, in his acting towards the
Press, he is a vast deal too liberal with
his “gag.”

Poetry. — Would that some of our
poetical correspondents would follow
the advice which we here subjoin. The
Knickerbocker says:
“There are some good stanzas in the
‘ Lines to Julia,’ but’as a whole, the
piece is deficient. We annex two of
t In’ best verses:
‘ I know a tender maiden,
As gentle as the spring,
As summer showers, or summer flowers,
Or any lovely thing.
But yet this tender maiden
Gareth no more for me
Than ’mid the stars the pale moon cares
For the poor love-sick sea.”
Then don’t bother her, if she don’t
‘care any thing for you!’ Don’t go
about whining like a sick monkey. —
Look up somebody who will care for
you, if you are worth being cared for.
‘ P’r’aps you ain’t.”
W ioked. — Pete. (Slightly coloured.)
Sambo, this ere sinner insinuate that
you being a self-respectable gemman
of colour loves darkness rather than
light.
Sambo. Well I does make like of
darkness. 1 confess. But I is not wicked ,
and 1 want you to tell me what sort of
wickedness always seeks the light.
Pete. Nothing could be more im
possible, Sambo.
Sambo. No? Well then, it is the
wickedness of all luminaries, such as
lamps and candles.
Pete. You may go out, Sambo, you
is distinguished.
Two Impediments. A hand ;ome
young Yankee nedler made love to a
buxom widow in Pennsylvania. lie
accompanied his declaration with two
impediments to their union.
“ Name them,” said the widow.
“The want of means to set up a re
tail store is the first,” replied the
pedler.
They parted, and she sent the pedler
a check for ample means. When they
me s again, the pedler had hired and
stocked his store, and the smiling fair
one begged to know the other impedi
ment.
“ 1 have another wife !” cried the no
tion dealer.
Coleridge and his Schoolmaster —
Coleridge, I am told, said he dreamt of
the master all his life, and that his
dreams were horrible. A bon mot of
his is recorded, very characteristic both
of pupil and master. Coleridge, when
lie heard of his death, said, “It was
very lucky that the cherubim who took
him to heaven were nothing hut faces
and wings, or he would infallibly have
flogged them on the wav.” — Leigh
Hunt’s Autobiography.
A Cool Reply. —An Indian prince,
remarkable for his pride and ill-humour,
once walking to the window of his pre
sence-chamber with a foreign ambassa
dor, said to him—“ Do you know, sir,
that one of my ancestors forced a per
son of your description from this bal
cony into the street.” “It may be so,”
was the reply, “hut probably it was not
the fashion then, as it is now, for am
bassadors to wear swords.”
Fireman’s Toast. —At an entertain
ment given by an Engine Company at
Burlington, Yt., the other day, J. G.
Saxe, Esq., uttered the following excel
lent toast:
“ If Prometheus was worthy of the
wrath of heaven, for kindling the first
fire upon earth, how ought all the gods
to honour the men who make it their
professional business to put it out ?”
Darkey Colloquy. —“Sambo, why

“Yes, I guv him up.”

ger you is! Bekase it is dis cord , you

MANUFACTURER’S WAREHOUS E,
91 JOHN-STREET, NEW YORK.
A LARGE stock of these well known PENS constantly
on hand, for sale as above.
CAUTION. —Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC
TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil
lott’b style ok Label, his mode of putting up his
Pens, and also Designating Numbers, he desires to
give tlie 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 m akers.
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
Pen? 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 ok perkec
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.
