POETII Y . 4 From the Rural R>por,tory. COLUMBUS 1 FIRST STOIITOF LAND. BY MISS tttEHOKK TAYLOR. M’ido o'er tho blue Atlantic's breast, An hymn of praise swendil high, Startling the sea-bird from its nest And soaring to the sky.- O whence arose that lofty song To the lich Ibernian longue, With its solemn tones, O'er that lone sea which ne’er lias heard Aught but the screeches of the bird, Or zchyr's varied moans' A small, but joyful company Are in those three frail ships, The hymn of praise that swelled so high Ascended from their lips. Who is that man of stately mien Who towering o’er the rest is seen From whose bright glistening eye, The gushing tears of rapture flow O’er cheeks, endindled with a glow Os holy ecstacy? I* is the daring Genocso ■ Who fearlessly unfurled I!is sails upon the unknown seas To eeok an unknown world. flo many a tedious year has borne Neglect and poverty and ecorn In preopect of this hour, — This glorious hour, in which his Maine Is written on thoeeroll of fame Beyond oblivion's power What wander, then, that joy should gleam Forth from his dark, bright eye, Or, down his cheek, that tears should stream Os holy ccstacy 311 SC E LLAN EOU &■ Muddy Wit —A black servant not a humirud miles from St. Andrews, being examined in the Church Catechism, hy the minister of the parish, was asked—‘What are you made of, Jack V lie said, 1 of mud massa.' On being told he should say *of dust,’ no replied ‘no massa, it no do, no stick togedder. A butcher about to hill u cow, employed an Irishman to hold her. Tho butcher squinted, and when looking at tho cow ap peared to look at tho Irishman. Pat, fear ing that he should get tho knock-iostead of the co w, said, in much h my, ‘Arrah, man, do you strike wlicro you look ; ,To bo sure I do-wher do you think I’d strike?’ ‘then you may howld tiie cow yourself, till I get out of tho way, just.’ A lawyer, engaged in a causa before the Judge tormented a poor German witness so much with questions, that the old man declared he was so much exhausted that he must have a drink of tv iter before ho could Sty anything more. Upon this, the Judge called out to tho teazing lawyer, 4 1 think, sir, you must Imvo done with that witness now, for you have pumped him dry.’ A Mistake. —A minister in a certain town not many miles from Dundee, some time since leceived a visit from an old friend whom he hao nol seen for a consider able time. It was evening, and tho stran ger had come from a distance; ho was therefoto invited to sup with the family, &. following the law of hospitality, was (con trary to tho wishes, and iu spite of the side winks and frowns of the minister’s better hall - ) pressed to remain with them all night. Before returning to their separate places of rest, tho worthy minister proposed family worship. His wife withdrew to gotthebible; nod the stranger shortly after left the room to take off his shoes in the passage, that his feet might bo eased after travelling. lie was in the act of stooping to effect his pur pose, when tho hostess Returning tothoroom and mistaking, in the unccrtnin light the guest for her husband,raised the folio testa ment which site carried, and, makiuk it *a lijlit on the cranium of the now prostrate stranger—‘That's for garin’ him stop a' night!’ said tha energetic gudewile: am: walked into the apartment which they I*«*J jnst left. It is needless to say how the parties felt under the circumstances. Who shall hate the Prize. —There was once to be a meeting of tho flowers, and llie judge was to award a price to the one pronounced tho most beautiful. “Who shall have the prizt?”said the rose, stalking forth in all the consciousness of beamy, “ Who shall have the prizi ? ’ said the oilier flowers, advancing each with conscious pride, and each imagining it would bo herself, “I will take a peep at these beauties,’ thought tho violet as she lay in her humble bed, not presuming to at teud the meeting: “I will see them as they pass.” But as she raised iici lowly head to peep out of her hiding place, she was observed by tho judge, who immediately pronounced her the most beautiful, because the most modest. Beauty. —Socrates called beauty a short lived tyranny; Plato; privilege of nature; I Theophratus, a silent cheat; Theocritus, a | delightful prejudice; Carneades, a solitary! kingdom; Domiti in said, that nothing was * more grateful; Aristotle affirmed that beau- j ty was better than all letters of recommen dation in the world; Hi mer, that ’was a glorious gift of nature; and Ovid, alluding to him, balls it a favor bi-stoned by the god*. It is computed that there are upwards of forty thousand tuge drivers in the United States.

To the Public. r rUIE FACULTY of tho College would ro JL respectfully notify the Parents and Guardians of the Students, that the conflagration of the new’ building, however serious, will not interfere in the smallest degree with the regular duties of the College. The course of instruction will not be affected, as every accommodation will be ready for tho students by the first of January. The Library it is truo has been destroyed, but we feel confident from the munificence of tho Legislature that the loss will lie so far repaired by the opening of the next term, as to prevent any injury arising from its destruction. Tho Mat hemal ical instru ments can be easily replaced. The fine Philoso phical Aparatus and Chemical Instruments are uninjured, and consequently full instruction iu the higher classes ran bo given. | As to tho personal accommodation of the young men, no difficulty will exist, as the old building hitherto devoted to the residence of the two low er clases, is, uninjured, and will consequently con tain all who now compose these clases. or who may coino by the commencement of the next •erm. Tho two upper classes will bo accommo dated with lodging and study rooms in private families or the boarding houses in town, and that without any additional charge, until tho College building shall tie repaired.
