From the Rome Courier. Fool hath said In his Heart tKekV Is no God.” j When nature folds her veil around, The scenes of noonday joy, ’When all is still, and not a sotiw! Is heard to breathe annoy— The mind may rest from labor free, Ou Father, Son and Spirit three. When night wraps earth iu sable gloom, And twilight fades away— When life is silent as the totnb, Clad in its dark ‘ar?asS ’Tis then the Christian soul may rest In safety on Jehovah’s breast. When Lunft’s beads dance o’er the lawn When gentle zephyrs bloW—• When rippling rills glide smoothly on, And in sweet uniou flow, ’Tts then and there the soul may fly. And read new lessons from on high. God’s presence dwells in every place, About, behind, before— He moves in endless, boundless space, And fills creation o’er, Not moved like man by storm or blast, He’s here and elsewhere, first and last, Go look beneath the Ocean wave, And gaze on every star — Go wake the cold and silent grave. And God will meet you there. He's here, He’s there, lie’s everywhere, In Heaven; in Hell, in Earth, in Air. Above* beneuth, without, within, -Ahd past the pale of being, The burning eye of God is seen, An awful eye all seeing. For all of life and light is His, Where all things are, where nothing is. The high, the low, the great, the email, The Nat ions bond and free, Before the great Jehovah fall, And own his power to be. And heathen, too, with blessed accord, Praise one Jehovah, Jove or Loid. Oh ! fool, lift thou thine erring eves Where Angels’ songs resound, -And seek for life beyond the skies Where God’s elect are found. For soon, alas! thy soul must dwell High up in Ilcaveu or deep in Hell. Oi.d Type. S&uthey ox Dueling.— Lord Byron, as is Veil known, was much galled by some severe strictures made by Southey ou his character end writings, and announced his intention of •demanding “the satisfaction due to a gentle* laan.” For some reason the challenge was ne ver sent, but iu anticipation of it, the Laure ate prepared the following reply, which was found among his papers c “Sir : I have the honor of acknowledging the receipt of your letter, and do myself the pleasure of replying to it without delay. “In affairs of this kind, the partners ought te meet upon equal terms. But to establish the equality between you and me, there are three things which ought to be done, and then Ti fourth also becomes necessary, before I can taeet you ou the field. “First, you must marry mid have four chil dren—please be particular iu having them girls. “Secondly, you must prove that the greater part of the provision which you make for them depends upon your life, and you must be under -a bond of four thousand pounds not to be •hanged, uot to commit suicide, and uot to be killed in a duel—which are the conditions up on which I have effected an insurance of my own life, for the benefit of my wife and daugh ters. “Thirdly, I must tell three direct falsehoods “concerning you, upon the hustings, or in some other not less public assembly ; and I shall neither be able to do this, nor to meet you af terward in the manner you propose, unless you can perform the fourth thing, which is, “You must convert me from the Christian religion. “Till all this be accomplished, our dispute must be carried ou without the use of auy more iron than is necessary for blacking our ink or mending our pens ; or any more lead than en ters into the composition of the Edinburgh Re view. “I have the honor to subscribe myself, sir, yours with all proper consideration, Robert Southey.” Earthquake in Malta* On Sunday, the 25th of October, at eleven minutes before 2 o’clock A M the Islands of Malta and Gozo were visited by shocks of an so violent in their nature, and so doug iu duration, that the oldest iuliabitants do toot remember ever to have experienced any thing so severe. The first shock made itself perceptible by t remulous motion similar to that caused by the passing of a heavy gun carriage a thousand times repeated, accompanied by a rumbling noise, of distant thunder, which rapid ly increased in violeuee until every building trembled. Scarcely a minute had elapsed when a more violent shock, accompanied by a louder noise, occured. The alarm occasioned was gen eral throughout town and country, “Men, women, and children, suddenly arous ed from their slumbers, issued from every house rushing into the streets made the best of their way to the squares, and other spaces which soon became full of people. The sentry at the Treasury left his post and ran to the main guard which he turned out, under the impres sion that shells were being thrown into the town by an enemy from some steamfleet. The two shocks, the interval being so brief as to be incalculable, lasted two minutes. In the city of Valetta scarcely a building escaped injury, and all corner structures have more particularly suffered. Os the Roman Catholic churches these of San Giacomo, St. Orsolo, and St Do minico appear to have suffered most. At Fiorina and each of the three cities, as well as in the harbor, the shocks were felt with considerable vigor, and at Sengles, Cosp cua, and Vitorioso, many of the buildings are injur ed. Persons on board ships in the port des cribe the effects of the earthquake, as felt by them, as of letting go the ships boats from the davits by the run, only much stronger. The sea receded two feet and a half. The night had been without a breath of air, with a sultry sen sation, the sea perfectly calm, and the moon shining in a clear sky, with a brightness that seemed to transform night for day, it being within twenty one hours of full moon. At Civita, Vechia, in the interior of the is land, all the churches, monasteries, nunueries and hospitals (the church of St Auguistine ex- sustained greater or less damage. The ilome of the cathedral is reut, so as to admit the.light, and the belfry is much shaken.— [Ex LEGAL SALES. Pike Mortgage Sheriff Sale for De* cember.

It is now a’dark brown, (the original color,) smooth and glossy. The only application I have made to it, has been the Ilair Restorative, prepared by you, and which, from the result iu my own case, I can most cordially recommend to others.

It entirely cleanses the head of dandruff, and with one month's pro per use, will restore any person's hair to the original youth ful color and texture, giving it a healthy, soft and glossy appearance ; and all this, without discoloring the hands that apply it, or the dress on which it drops. I would ; therefore recommend Its Use tocVery one desirous of having a line color and texture to hair. Respectfully vours, WILSON KING. St. Louis, June 29, 1553. Prof. Wood : As you are about to prepare and vend your recently discovered Hair Restorative, and as you request my opinion of it. I will state that my hair was, a few month's ago, very grey, and after using two bottles of your Hair Restorative, it resinned its original color, and since its ap plication, all dandruff has disappeared from my head, and 1 have been troubled with no disagreeable itching of the scalp. 1 ain satisfied that those whu Use it, Will not regret it, as it gives the appearance of having been recently oiled. lam prepared therefore, to recommend its use to all who are desirous of having a beautiful head of hair. I am, sir, yours, etc., H L STEWART. Cincinnati, 0., Feb. 10, 1854. Prof. Wood—Dear Sir : My hair had for several years, been becoming prematurely grey, accompanied by a harsh ness which rendered the constant application of oil neces sary in dressing it. When i coiuiivenmi using yout Heii v - I Restorative, about two moot -s ago, it was in that condi tion ; and having continued its use till within the last three weeks.it has turned to its natural color, and ttssWHed a softness and lustre greatly to be preferred to those produced by the application of oils or any other preparation I have ever used. I regard it as an indispensable article for every lady’s toilet, whether to he used as a Hair Restorative, or for the simple purpose of dressing W beautifying the hair. You have permission to refer to me all who entertain any doltbt of its performing all that is claimed for it. MRS C SYMOXDS, 144, 3rd Street. Watertown, Mass., May 1. 1854.
