NOR TJHL CAE O ti IN A SENfW JK1L. FROM THE SPANISH. Thou hast cat off the heart that I tfave thee, Like a weed that was worthless and vain An heart that had perished to save thee, Thou hast given to the bleak world I aain : Thine is false, that so oft thou hast told me Lived only to beat for my own, And the arms that were wont to enfold me Perhaps round another are thrown! When I gazed on thy beautiful tresses, On thy brow and thy bosom of snow When I lived amid thy can-esses Oh ! how little thine heart did I know ! When I felt that young heart wildly beating, I believed it could beat but for me ; The delusion was lovely, but fleeting, As all that is lovely must be ! . Yet who, when thy bosom was heaving, While he drank thy bewildering signs, Could think that thine heart was deceiving, And false the pure light of thine eyes ? Oh I who, when thine arms were around him, A.s his lip to thy kisses he press'd, Could think that thy falsehood should wound him, That pillow'd thine head on his breast 1 But go ! Though that soft breast were heaven , It's snows were a heaven alone To the chosen one, to whom it is given To rest on it, all is his own : Farewell! thou art false, and I leave thee I Farewell! my vain hopes I resign ; Farewell! I could never deceive thee fVo; the crfmc and the nun are thine ! SERENADE.1 From the Portuguese of Antonio Da Souza. Elvira awake ! awake, tove 'T Remember the bow'r of blisss ; O ! come with me and partake, love, Of joy on a night like this. Elvira, love, awake ! The splendid beams of yon moon love, Fall bright on that myrtle bower : Awake from thy slumbers soon, love, 'Tis past the appointed hour, Elvira, love, awake ! Soon the dawn will streak the east, love, Then awake.my only dear, I would on thy kisses feast, love, 'Ere those streaks of dawn appear ; Elvira, love, awake! ' -7 But never will I depart, love, Till I clasp thee to my breast, And feel the throb of thy heart, love, As against my own 'tis presss'd, Then, sweetest love, awake ! i . A HEART TO SELL! WHO'LL BUY. A new song, written expressly for Miss Clara Fish er, and sung by her with enthusiastic applause. The rausic composed by C. E. Horn. Oh yes ! Oh yes ! I've a heart to sell ! L : Who'll buy? who'll buy ? who'll buy? ?Tis new 'tis fresh, and furnished well, Who'll buy 1 who'll buy ? who'll buy 1 . 'Tis bosomed where 'tis never cold, j No prying eyes have seen it ; JTis Worth at least its weight in gold, For love ne'er dwelt within it. Who'll buy ? who'll buy ? who'll buy ? Does any one bid more 1 If sold, the bidder must be free. Who'll buy? who'll buy ? who'll buy ? if let. the lease for life must be! Who'll buy? who'll buy? who'll buy ? Ot if there's one with wlwrn resides A heart not prone to range, That's jkind, and free, and young besides, I'll take it in exchange. Who'll buy? who'll buy? who'll buy? 'Tis going ! going ! gone ! ! .... v MOTION OF THE PLANETS. These bodies, vast in magnitude, infinite in aiumber, and the tenants of space, are in rapid , motion ; but what imagination can possibly con ceive of that power which impels the move ment? An idea may be acquired of this rapid .motion by a reference to familiar objects, the velocity of a ship impelled by the wind, par ticularly if urged over the rolling billows by a furious tempest, the swiftness of a bird wing ing its flight through the air, eepeceially if pursued by an eagle ; or the motion of a ball projected from a cannon, which, in some cases is at the rate of 800 miles an hour. But these are creeping things. Saturn, one of ihe most tardy in its course of any of the planets, a globe 900 times larger than the earth, is impelled at ihe rale of 22,000 miles an hour, carrying with him a system of stupendous rings, and seven moons larger than the earth's satellite. Jupiter, whose vast circumference would com prise within it, a thousand such globes as we mnmtra !- n C 1A tCt ! . AjUiavit, uiutca ai mc ioic ui iu,vUU miles in an. hour. This earth is urged forward at the rate of 68,000 miles in an hour; and Mercury, SUil lasier, ueuig ui,wu iwiies m me same time but even these are slow when compared with tnat oi ine comei oi ioou, wnicn went half round the sun in ten hours and a half, and its tail (at least an hundred million of miles in length) turning round in the same time keep ing nearly in the direction opposite the sun the velocity of the comet, at this part of its or bit, (its perihelion,) was 830,000 miles in an hour; and so closely did it approach the sun, that supposing the centrifugal or projectile force to have been annihilated at this point of of its course, it would have fallen into the sun in less than three minutes ! In the sphere of the fixed stars there is reason to belie vexhat bodies are in motion, whose velocits is pror porttonably greater than any in the planetary system. One of the double stars completes its revolu rtSSt? fiffv"sevea -vears; in estimating the it w 11 rLbed by alessor sun ab"t a greater, it ? 5eceMy to suppose (though remoL frnn,16 lhe tw bodies are as remote from each other as the nearest fixed alar is from our sun, namely II nfmilMMu ' twenty millions cpnrt!An hviZZ1" ?hat the line of par then move at the rate of-12,00ofoo! an hour. This motion, observe " of the fixed starsVconfirras the belief tht sun, with its bright retinue of comets, plants and satellites, is moving forward through SDace with a velocity past "conjecture. It is, 7 therefore, probable; that the solar system will never in the course of its most' protracted du ration, revisit any part of the curve or line it has moved over since the creation. Time's Telescope. Plain Anatomy. Can any one read this summary of the parts of the human uouy, and not believe he is fearfully and wonderfully made ? 'The bones, by their joints and solidity, form the foundation of this fine machine : the liga ments are strings which unite the parts togeth er; the muscles are fleshy substance, which act as elastic springs to put them in motion; the nerves which are dispersed over the whole body, connect all the parts together ; the arte ries and veins, like rivulets', convey life and health throusrhout the heart ; placed in the centre, is the focus whre the blood collects, or the acting power by means of which it circu lates and is preserved ; the lungs, by means of another power, draw in the external air, and expel nuruui vapours; me stomach and in i . e 1 l i testinies are the magazines where verv thing that is required for the daily supply is prepar ed ; the brain, that seat of the soul," is formed in a manner suitable to the dignity of the in habitant. The senses, which are the souls min isters, warn it of all that is necessary either for its pleasure or use. Adorable Creator, with what wonderful art hast thou formed us? Though the heavens did not exist to proclaim thy glory ; Though there were no created being upon earth but myself, my own body might suffice to convince me that thou art a God of unlimited power and infinite goocrdness.' Bennet, i The Press at large. There are in Europe, ivith a population of2 7,700,000, two thousand one hundred and forty two periodical journals. In America, with a population of forty millions, upwards of one thousand. In Asia, with a population of 30,000,000, only twenty-seven. In Africa, with a population of 60,000,000, but twelve. In Oceania, with a population of 20, 000,000, nine. 'Thus it appears,' says a French journal, 'that in Asia there is one paper for every 14,000,000; in Africa, one for every 5,000,000; in Europe, one for every 106,000; in America, one for every 30,000 ; and precise ly in ihe same manner is the comparative pro gress of civilization in these different divisio'ns of the earth.' The Harmonicon mentions the fourth musi cal festival held at Colonsre, and says that there were 562 persons engaged in the per formance ; of these 357 were vocalists namely, 76 soprani, 62 mezzo soprani, 109 tenori, and 110 bassi. The orchestra consisted of 87 violins, 33 tenors, 6 violincellos, 14 double basses, 6 flutes, 4 oboes, 7 clarionets,4bassons, 8 horns, 8 trumpets, 3 trombones, 1 bass-horn, and kettle-drums, great drum, triangle and cymbals. The concert room contained 4000 persons. Koses of .Persia. Amongst the various flowers which adorn this earthly paradise, the rose is abundant and of a mild fragrance. The same inferiority in size, beauty and smell is likewise apparent in the cultivated rose, the far famed crul of the Persian gardens. One morning while at breakfast at Bushire, a ser vant of the residency brought to us a small nosegay, a peshcush, (or present,) the flowers composing which, were the first of the season. Among them was a rose, but of such small di mensions, that I was tempted to inquire wheth cr the Rose of Persia, the fabled favorite of the bulbul, was not generally considered brilliant and of powerful scent? I think Captain Hun nel then told me, that so far from the notion being correct, the flower was there so insignifi cant thouffh the trees were large, tnat it re- quired two hundred thousand of them to make one ounce of attar gul (attar of roses.) Stocqueler's Journey from India to Eng land. A fact which ought to be made familiar to all who go down to the sea in ships and do business on the great deep. To Allay Thirst. Many facts testify the action of cutaneous or external absorption. It is proved by direct experiment that the human hand is capable of imbibing, in a quarter of an hour, an ounce and a half of warm water, which for the whole body, is at the rate of six seven pounds per hour. An interesting nar rative is on record, of a ship's crew, who were exposed for several days in an open boat; they had consumed all their water; they had no fluid of any kind which they could drink ; they soon began to suffer from thirst ; their feelings at length became intolerable, and the drinking of sea water was soon found to increase it to in tensity. When nearly exhausted, they were exposed, during several hours, to a heavy show er of rain. As soon as their clothes became thoroughly wet their thirst began to abate and before the rain had ceased their thirst was gone. They did not fail to profit by this ex perience. From this time, each man, as soon as he began to feel thirsty, dipped his shirt in tne sea-water, and wore it next his skin, which had the invariable effect of removing his thirst, the absorbents taking up the particles of wcuer, dui rejecting the saline matter dissolved in it. oinguiai wsioms There s a custom C" 7 n . "' proper to icuy, which I must not foreet to !! ... menuon. i nis is a ngnt ol nurchase of a s n- gular kind. If any man buy an estate, be it house, land, vineyard, the neighbor of the pur- cnaser, ior uie space oi an entire vear after ward, may eject him by an advance of nrire In vain would the first purchaser give more to .i i Tk" i i tne original owner. i ins amguiai law is gen erally evaded by a falsehood. The purchase money is stated, in the articles of agreement, at a higner sum man nas ueeii agreea upon in the presence of four witnesse?. There is another no less singular law in Sicily, accor dinff to which any man can oblige his neighbor M T 1 1 1 to sell his house, it ne wilt give mm uiree nines its value. The intention of this law was the improvement of the towns. It was to encou rage'the possessors of large houses to purchase the humble abodes of the poor. Count Stol berfs Travels.
