The camp has had its day of song; The sword, the bayonet, the plume, Have crowded out of rhyme too long The Plow, the Anvil, and the Loom ! Not upon our tented fields Are Freedom’s heroes bred alone; The trainings of the work-shops yields More heroes true than War has known ! Who drives the bolt, who shapes the steel, May, with a heart as valiant, smite, As he who sees a foeman reel In blood before his blow ot might ! The skill that eonque's space and time, That graces life, that lightens toil, May spring from courage more sublime Than that which makes a realm its spoil. Let Labor, then, look up and see, His craft no pith ot honour lacks ; The soldier's rille yet shall he Less honoured than the woodman’s axe ! Let Ait lus own appointments prize, Nor deem that go and or outward height Can compensate the worth that fies In tastes that breed their own delight. And may the time draw nearer still When men this sac.ed truth shall heed, That from the thought, and trom the will Must all that raises man proceed ! Though Pride should hold our calling low, For us should Duty make it good ; And we from truth to truth should go Till life and death are understood. From the International. THE RAINY MORNING. BY WM. C. RICHARDS. There is a gloom on the sky, and its shadow Lies chill on the morning’s pure breast; The sunshine is hid from the meadow, And Nature with tears is oppreat: Not a carol of birds wakes to cheer us, The (lowers sleep late in their beds; Not a bee in its flight ventures near 11s, And the cattle are drooping their heads. Rolls sullenly by us the river, Its waves tie.titer sparkle nor gleam ; The autumn leaves mouinluily quiver, And silently drop on the stream ; All around and below, as above us, The sky’s gloomy shadows are cast; And Nature to joy cannot move us, Till the cloud from Iter bosom is past. But what if the vision be cheerless, Outside of the home that we love— The sunshine w.thin it is peerless, Be the skies bright or somber above ; The light of our home is affection, And clouds cannot li.de it from view ; No in. tier how deep our dejection. Its rays will be sure to break through. SONG. From on unpublished Poem. BY G. H. BORER. Lovelorn Lucy On a bank sat sighing, Ah, well-a-day !—ah, weil-a-day ! My tickle love has flown away, And left me here a dying. False, false pledges! Why did 1 receive them ? Vows are but words, words are but air, And air can blow both foul and lair; — Why d.d I believe them? Ah, light-hearted! Would tny scorn might slay me ! Or would ttiy wrongs might end my pain ! Or would that thou might’st come again, And again betray me! (Srugnijiljij. NICARAGUA. There is no portion of this continent more deserving the attention of the people of the United States, than that embraced in the limits of the Republic of Nicaragua. The commercial posi tion is the finest, perhaps, in the world ; and with the construction of the pro posed ship canal, it must command to a great extent the commerce between Europe and Asia, and the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of our Republic. The following accounts of the climate, &c., of Nicaragua, we take from the report submitted by Mr. Squier to the De partment of State, in obedience to in structions received in entering upon his mission. CLIMATE OF NICARAGUA, &c. There are other circumstances be sides the actual typographical features of the country necessary to be consi dered in estimating the practicability of a grand work like the proposed ca nal, the means of subsistence, climate, ability of procuring and applying la bour, &c., must all be considered. — Situated between latitude 18“’ and 13 a North, the climate is essentially tropi cal, but is favourably modified by a variety of causes. Upon the Atlantic declivity it is unquestionably warmer than in the interior, or upon the bord ers of the Pacific—more humid and more subject to rain. The country, too, is low along the coast, with numer ous lagoons and inlets, and consequent ly more infested with annoying insects, and more subject to fevers. The cli mate, however, is more salubrious than would be supposed under the circum stance-;. This is illustrated by the fact that in the months of March and April, 1549, a party of American emigrants— -130 in number—spent upward of six months at this point, and notwithstand ing the sudden transition tVom mid winter to tropical heats, not to mention inadequace shelter and indifferent food, not one was seriously affected by ill ness. The same party, it may also be mentioned, passed up the San Juan under the worst of circumstances, suf sering great exposures, and remained in the interior and upon the northern coast until the middle of August,.with scarcely any sickness among them, and that little generally the result of care lessness or excesses. But a single mem ber, whose health had been shattered by dissipation atjiome, and whose ha bits would soon have proved fatal in any climate, died during this period, it cannot be doubted that the surveys, excavations, &c., on the San Juan, will not only prove the most difficult of any section of the proposed canal, but, from the nature of things, be attended with greater injury to the health of those engaged there. The forests which line c j O . that river are dense and dark, and the removal of the trees and other vegeta tion, and consequent; exposure of the rich earth —the accumulated vegetable deposit of ages —to the sun, would prove a prolific source of fevers and kindred diseases. The evil conse quences could only be arrested by em ploy in,- here, as elsewhere, the natives ot this latitude, inured to labour and hardened to exposure. In fact, the prin cipal reliance throughout must be upon this kind of labourers, who, for two reals (25 cents) per day, (the standard price,) would flock in all desirable num bers from all the States of Central America. For a medio (op cents) per day each man provides his own support, without further cost to his employer. The labouring population is eminently docile, and can soon be brought to per form any kind of simple labour, as ex cavating, clearing, quarrying, burning lime, &c., in a satisfactory manner. In a country where there are so many fes tival days, it would be necessary to keep them a little in arrears, or possess some means of forcing them to comply with their contracts to secure their con stant attention to their w< >rk. The val ley of the San Juan once passed, the the climate is unsurpassed for salubrity by aa equal extent of territory under the tropics, or perhaps in the world. The year is divided, rather anomalously to the stranger, into two seasons—the wet and the dry ; the first of which is called Winter, and the latter Summer. The wet season commences in May, and lasts until November, during which time, but usually near the commence ment or close, rains of some days’ du ration are of occasional occurrence, and showers are common, but do not often happen, except late in the after noon, (commencing about four o’clock,) or in the night. They are seldom of long duration, and often days and weeks elapse without a cloud obscur ing the sky* During this season, the verdure and the crops which, during the dry season, became sere and with ered, appear in full luxuriance: the temperature is very equable, differing a little in different localities, but preserv ing great uniformity all over the coun try, except in the mountainous regions, t he range of the thermometer is from 78“ to 88“ in rare instances sinking to 70° during the night, and rising to 1)0“’ in the afternoon. During the month of June, tit Grenada, the average bight of the thermometer was 82“ of Tah.; in Leon, during the months of July, August and September, 83°. Out of the sun this weather would prove agree able to most persons. There is almost constantly a cool and pleasant breeze blowing, for the most part from the north-east. The nights are delicious, and sleep is seldom, if ever, interrupted bv heat. For weeks together the ther mometer has marked 79“’ at 10 o’clock in the evening, and 78“ at sunrise.— During the dry season, in January,the temperature is less, the nights posi tively cool, and occasionally the winds arc chilling. The sky is cloudless, and trifling showers fall at rare intervals. Hie fields become dry, cattle are driven to the bills and forests for pasturage, and the dust in the towns becomes al most insupportable. It penetrate every where, permeating even through the tiled roofs in showers, and sweeping in clouds through the unglazed windows. Were it not for this, the dry season would not be pronounced unpleasant. It is esteemed healthier than the wet season. not more than one-half the amount of rain falls during these six months in Nicar agua than falls in the latitude of New York during the same period. lltniiings nt Tumiiaiti. Whenever you see a small waist, thing how much health is wasted. Why is a restless man in bed like a lawyer? Because he lies on all sides. A singing mouse, with notes like a linnet, has been trapped at Rochester, England. The man who has never taken a newspaper was seen in Cincinnati late ly. lie was inquiring the way to the poor-house. ANSWER TO “printer’s KISSES.” But yet, methinks, it might be mended, Oh, yes! 1 see it in those eyes ; Our lips again together blended, Will make th’ impression a revise A client once burst into a flood of tears after he had heard the statement of his counsel, exclaiming, “I did not think I had suffered half so much till 1 heard it this day.” There is a fellow in Connecticut who has invented a patent kissing machine. A man having one can kiss a gal so easy that she will not know it, unless the amiable swain is so vulgar as to smack-. A modern poet*thus criticises some church-going people: “ Attend your church,’ the parson cries To church each fair one goes, The old go there to close their eyes, The young, to eye their clothes. An Arabian having brought a blush to a maiden’s cheek by the earnestness of his gaze, said to her —“ My eyes have planted roses in your cheeks; why forbid me to gather them? The law permits him who sows to reap the harvest.” An inebriate Irishman,on being kin il ly questioned in a very narrow lane across which he was reeling, as to the length of the road lie had travelled, replied: “Faith! its not so much ‘he length of it as the breadth of it that’s tired me.” “O vis! O yis!” cried an Irishman in the street a few days since, ringing a bell, “lost, between twilve o’clock and McKinney’s store on Market-street, a large brass kay. Til not be afther tel lin’ye what it was, but it was the kay to the bank, shore.” A client complained of a painter, who had broken his written contract to paint a house; and the case stated that A would prove this, B that, and C the other fact, and concluded with this question— ; “ Will an action lie?” To which Erskiue answered, in terms as laconic, “ Yes, if all the witnesses will lie too.” Two Ir.shmen were talking together just after the landing of Jenny Lind at New York, when one of them remark ed —“Sure Jemmy Lynn’s come, did you hear that?” “Deed l did not,’ answered the other. “Who is he?” “Hear to the like o’ that now,” rejoined his companion, “it is not a he at all , it's a moBT-ingal!” At a debating club the question was discussed, whether there is more plea sure in the possession or the pursuit of an object. “ Mr. President,” said an orator, “ suppose 1 was courting a gal, and she was to run away, and 1 was to run after her, wouldn’t 1 be happier when 1 catched her than when 1 was running after her.” SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. pililosojiljii fur flit From theClironotype. THE GIANT PROJECTS OF THE AGE. There are certain periods in the world’s history, when the advancement of the age depends on the genius of one man. Such were the days of Jesus, of Constantine, of Galileo and Coper nicus, of Guttenberg, of Christopher Columbus, of Isaac Newton, of Robert Fulton, of George Washington, of Na poleon the first. There are other age-, when the intellect of no one man stands pre-eminently above its fellows, but the whole mass of mind stirs like the ocean—presenting one broad wave of progress, surging onwards with a vio lence that sweeps away old landmarks and buries beneath its waters the sci ences, the social wants and require ments, the enterprise, the religion, the superstitions of the past. Such an era, in an inferior degree, was that of the Reformation; and such, in a vastly su perior measure, is the age we live in. There is no standing still in human affairs. They must either advance or recede. Wo be to that man or that country, the tide of whose fortune has turned towards its ebb. Where is lyre, the centre of oriental commerce? Bagdad, of manufactures? Arabia, of arts and sciences { Venice, of commerce and conquest? Holland likewise? and Spain, the magnificent? And where in a century or two, will England be. since the tide of her prosperity is evi dently past the full. In our own country, we are sailing, or rather dashing impetuously onward, on the full wave of progress. Not only the star of empire, but the star of sci ence has winged its way to the west ward. The characteristics of the cen tury are thoroughly scientific. Among the giant projects now en gaging the attention of the world, is the practicability of passing an electric telegraph around the globe. Already the initiative has been taken in this matter by the accomplishment of a line between Calais and Dover, and the survey lor another wire from England to Ireland, acros i the English Channel. Leaving out of account the practica bility of circling the planet landwards by Behring’s straits the next maratime link must be, and doubtless will be, from Ireland to the Azores. From the Azores to Newfoundland—from New foundland to the American Continent is but a step. It follows that the hem ispheres brought together by this cable of wire would speedily find themselves on such friendly terms as would re duce the War Navies of the world into commercial fleets, and make the occupation of peace societies like Othel lo’s —gone. It is impossible to estimate the changes which the establishment of a world girdling telegraph would devel ope within a tew years. The post office would be the fir. t thing knocked on the head. And how long would nations remain in barbarism with electricity preaching the doctrines of civilization in every end of the earth ? Not long indeed. Morse, House, Bain and other apostles would speedily baptize all na tions, and bring the most distant sheep of the human flock within cry of the pea. Another project of this age is arrial navigation. America generally, and Mr. John Taggart, of Charlestown, Mass., in particular, England, France and (Spain, are striving one against the other to reduce it to practice. Why should they not succeed. The science isin its infancy it is true. Erelong it may be breeched. \\ hat. is the use of a new-born child ? It may become a man. This brings us to the subject of mo tive power. Steam begins to be blase. It is too ponderous an affair for gen eral use. A gentleman cannot carry a coal binn and a piston in his coat tail. But he may carry a series of magnets, and by adapting these to a pair of wheels, conveniently stowed away in the crown of liis hat, he may at any time construct a vehicle, and go ahead. Again, electro-magnetism is not at all likely to be the ultimate motive power. It is well in its way, but there are no doubt other powers imprisoned some where in nature’s laboratory. We don’t remember that the elasticity of water, or of air, or to the contractility of metals, has been used as a motor, yet we don’t see why some visionary might not hit upon a secret of that kind when trying to pick the locks of Nature’s cabinet. By the bye, fuel is a very unneces sary thing. They light the Astor House with water gas, and if water burns in the Astor House lamps, there is no reason why it should not cook the Astor House beef steaks, —and, if in the Astor House, —there is no reason to prevent its warming and cooking in the cottages of the poor. One more gigantic project now in process, and we have done. We mean the improvement of water-courses by damming the rivers at various points connected by telegraph, and thus, by opening or shutting the reservoirs, ex tending navigation to inland distances at present impracticable. The experi ment of Ellet on the Ohio river is one of this nature. This is a lirst step to universal water-carriage, a measure of the highest value, that is to say, if it be not superceded a little too soon by the employment of balloons. Let none say these projects are Uto pian. The practicability of some of them has been tested, while experi ments made in others give promise of successful issue. Already the A riels, the Calibans, the spirits of fire, earth and water are having the supernatural business taken out of their hands. We live in go-a-head times. By and by we shall see what we shall see. Revolving Cylinder Steam En gine.—Mr. A. A. Wilder, of Detroit, Michigan, has invented an engine, the nature of which is designated tty the caption above, and for which he has taken measures to secure a patent. It has iu> valves, strictly speaking, the steam being cut off and let on in a pipe which forms a side gudgeon or trunnion at the middle of the cylinder. The piston rod is connected bv a crank pin to a Jong crank, the shaft to which is set at such a distance on the other side of the cylinder as enables the piston rod and throw of the crank to obviate the dead points. An engine construct ed on this principle is now in opera tion, and it has created no small sensa tion among engineers and others who have seen it. We have seen a number of certificates from distinguished men, all of whom speak in no stinted terms of Air. Wilder’s invention. —Scientific American. Cdritir nf tbit. DUCKING. BY W. WALKER. “ Mary, you are my duck, my dear,” Said Tom, w.tli loving look ; Her brow contracted, as she said, “ I wont be call’d a duck; You surely think that I’m a goose, Or else a silly elf.” Tom cried, “ Oh! don’t be angry, oi l’ll go and drown myself!” Poll laugh’d, and said, “ why it appears The best step you can take, By doing so you’re sure to get A duck , and no mistake !” THE KING AND THE IRISHMAN. Frederick William, of Prussia, father of the ‘’Great Frederick, - ’ had a mania for enlisting gigantic soldiers into the “Royal Guards,” and paid an enor mous bounty to his recruiting officers for getting them. One dav a recruit mg Sergeant chanced to spy a Hiber nian who was at least seven feet high; he accosted him in English, and pro posed that he should enlist. The idea of a military life and a large bounty so delighted Patrick that he at once con sented. “ But,” says the Sergeant, “ unless you speak German the King will not give you so much.” “O, he jaliers,” said the Irishman, “shure it’s i that don’t know a word of your German.’ “But,” said the Sergeant, “three words will be sufficient, and those you can learn in a short time. The King knows every man in the Guards, and as quick as he sees you, he will ride up and ask you three questions ; first his majesty will ask you how old you are. You will say twenty-seven —next, how long have you been in the service— you must reply, three weeks —finally, if you are provided with clothes and rations, you answer both.” Patrick soon learned to pronounce his answers, but never dreamt ot learn ing the questions. In three weeks lie appeared before the King in review.— 11 is majesty rode up to him ; Paddy stepped forward with “present arms.” “Hon old are you?” said the King. “Three weeks!” said the Irishman. “ How long have you been in the service?” asked his majesty. “Twenty-seven years!” “Am 1 or you a fool?” roared the King. “Both!” replied Paddy, who was in stantly taken to the guard-house. An Apology. — Old Mr. H ,who resides in a certain village in Maine, and who is a member of the church militant, got in a passion one day with Air. M , one es his brethren, and, among other naughty things, declared he was not fit to carry swill to the hogs; whereupon M had him ar raigned before the church, on which oc casion he was requested to make an apology. The proper time having ar rived, II arose and addressed the brethren as follows: “Afy Christian friends, 1 feel that 1 have deeply injured brother AI ,for which lam heartily sorry. 1 did say lie was not fit to carry swill to the hogs, and 1 now take it back, being firmly of the opinion that he is amply qualified io fill that office.'’ II having made a clean breast, his apology was deemed satisfactory by all but, brother AI , who de clares to this day that he heard II say, in a low tone, that he was fit to carry swill, and for nothing else.” • [ Yankee Blade. Cracked Before. —Mrs. Brougham, mother of the ex-Chancellor, (says an Edinburgh friend,) was a most excel lent and thrifty housewife. One one occasion, she was much troubled with a servant addicted to dish-breaking, and who used to allege, in extenuation of her fault, “it was crackit before.” One morning little Harry tumbled down stairs, when the kind mother, running after him, exclaimed, “Oh, boy, have you broken your head?” “No, ma,” said the Chancellor, “it was crackit before.” — Glasgow Daily Mail. E was death on a joke. I recollect once that the Profes sor called him up on a question in as tronomy on the eclipse of the sun. Tom was somewhat fashionable among the seniors, but was unable to give the desired information. “Well,” said the Professor, in his quizzical growl, “suppose you were appointed astronomer general to the United States, and they wanted to know the time of the next eclipse.” “ Why,” said Tom, as sober as a deacon, “ I'd resign the office.” Sharp. —“My love,” said an ami able spouse to her husband, “don’t sell that horse, I like him, and I want to keep him.” “He’s my horse, and I’ll sell him,” replied the loving lord; “didn't 1 buy him?” “ It was my money that bought him,” retorted the aristocratic lady. “ Yes, madam,” said the husband, “and by Jupiter your money bought me , or you never would have got me.” The Best Hit at Hydropathy.— The following hit at the Water Cure was made by Charles Lamb, and no one but himself could have had so quaint a conception. “it is,” said he, “neither new nor wonderful, fur it is as old as the Deluge, which, in my opin ion, killed more than it cured!” The following advertisement recently appeared in the Saunders’ News Letter , published in Dublin, Ire land : “ Wanted —A young woman to act iMdiouse-maid in a small private family; iiRO a milch cow —must be of the es tablished church.” Shrewdness and Sweetness. —The Blade says the proprietor of the re freshment room at the West Brookfield station is a very shrewd man.

Philadelphia, June, 1850. ts JOSEPH GIL LOTT’S STEEL PENS. MANUFACTURER’S WAREHOUSE, 91 JOHN-STREET, NEW YORK. ALARGEstock ot these wellknown PENS constantly on hand, for sale as above. CAUTION. —Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil lott’s style or Label, his mode of putting up his Pens, and also Desiunatino 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 foe simile of Ids signature on the reverseside. None other are genuine. This caution espe. cially refers to his original No. 303, the great popularity ot which has caused it to he imitated, and the number adopt ed by a host of pretended makers. Joseph Gillott would further advise the public that, in all cases where bis N umbers and the phraseology of bis 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 bis Steel Pens to the highest state or perfec tion, and the liberal iratronage which he has long enjoyed at the hands of tbeAmeriean public,will incite him to con tinued exertion to maintain the favor which lie has ac quired.
