iscetfaneous;, THE DEEP. . There's beauty in the deep: The wave is bluer than the sky. And though the lights shine bright on high, More softly do the sea gems glow That sparkle in the depths below: The rainbow's tints are only made When on the waters they are laid; And sun and mbtn most sweetly bhine Upoti the ocean's level brine. There's beauty in the deep. There's music in the deep: t is not in the surf's rough roar, Nor in the whispering, shelly shore They are but earthly sounds, that tell How little of the sea-nymphs shell That sends its loud, clear note abroad, Or winds its softness through the flood, Echoes through groves with coral gay, And dies on spongy banks, away. There's muoic in the deep. There's quiet in the deep: Above, let tides and tempests rave, And earth-born whirlwinds wake the wave Above, let care and fear contend, With sin and sorrow to the end. Here, far beneath the tainted foam, That frets above our peaceful home, We dream in joy and wake in love, Nor know the rage that yells above. There's quiet in the deep. THE SKY. There's beauty in the sky: Its vault is of a brighter hue Then ocean with its wave of blue; And there the stars arc thickly set, Bright diamonds on night's coronet; The rainbow's grand and glorious form Smiles like an angel on the storm, And lifts its arch divinely fair, A type of love ar?d mercy there. There's beauty in the sky. There's music in the sky: It is not in the thunder's crash, Nor in the lightning's red-wing'd fash; These speak from darkness and from gloom And tell of ruin, death and doom. But birds are on the buoyant wing, And their soft love-notes murmuring; And oft, at midnight, fancy hears The harmony of rolling spheres There's music in the sky. There's quiet in the sky: Below, let strife and hatred dwell Unhallow'd rage make earth a hell; Belotv, let "sin and sorrow" reign, And stamp on man their seal and stain; But oh! how still yon cloudlets bear Their light forms through the silent air, Or, crown'd with evening's glory, rest Serenely in the glowing west. There's quiet in the sky. ine, and on Wednesday, after din ner, he procured from one of his neighbors a piece ot rope, went to the narrows, a distance of one mile, and tied one end of it to his body, and the other to a stone weighing about thirty pounds, and plunged intb the water where it was nearly fifteen feet deep. , His body was found after it had re mained in the water about thir ty six hours. New- York. The Grand Lode of this State held its annual meet- in?r the week before last. We understand that the Lodge, with great unanimity, made a grant of money from the treasury, to re purchase the Clinton Vases, which were sold at auction some time ago, and present the same to the family. This munificent act was done as a testimony of respect for their late Grand Master.. stinct which dreams, or is it mind!i If so, memory is a mere matter ot instinct, and so is hope. Look through all the animal creation; look at the beaver building his dam; the bird constructing her nest, and the spider weaving his web; see with what polite cunning tho bald eajxlc makes atoolof the fish hawk; call to mind the story of the monkey, the cat and the chesnuts and then make a dis tinction between reason and in stinct if you can. What is the reason brutes -arc subject to suffering! Brutes as well as men, are subject to the same sort of pains and diseases so far as their cases coincide. They suffered with man in the anguish of the fall. They have perished with him in deluges and confla grations, in famines, pestilences and destructions by the sword. As brute animals have attended man in all great and capital ca- Suicidc. Captain Wincken bach, of Waldoborough, Maine, drowned himself a few days ago. No reason can be assigned for this act his worldly affairs were prosperous, his character good, and he had never exhibited any signs of mental derangement. He has left a wife and twelve children. The circumstances preceding this event are singular and peculiar. About the first of April, he purchased cambric for a shroud, and a few weeks since had it madewhen questioned upon the propriety of this, he re marked, that, as he was becoming old, and the term of his existence might be short, he conceived such a preparation to be needful. Un til within a few days of his death he had been engaged in making out his accounts, and arranging his papers he at one time obser ved to his brother that, as he ex pected soon to be taken away, he wished him to take charge of his pocket book and papers, and, should his predictions prove true, to dispose of them as he thought proper.

He placed his foot on the bridge, looked very wise, gave a dissatisfied shake of his head, and drew back. The man of reason urged the brute of instinct to try again he did so and again drew back. A third time, his keeper goaded him for ward -the submissive animal o beyed the bridge gave way, and down went quadruped instinct, and biped reason, to the damage of both their bodies Which was the fool in this easel The truth is, man values himself overmuch, in comparison with the brute. Give an experienced elephant the faculty of speech, and he would make a better stale counsellor than many a biped. The brute have all the passion and affections of humanity; why should they not have its reason! The race horse is ambitious; the war horse brave; the tiger is a plotter of treason, and the lion is impelled by the lust of dominion.
