irlng last week the waters In the
fuity of Pine Grove furnace and Lau
forge, rose to such a height that the
rations at were filled
water to such a depth as to prevent
pumps from working. Eecently a
erful pump bad been erected to keep
mines clear of water, but the bank
id in and stopped opeiations. During
heavy ralu on Saturday night and
day morning the waters rose rapidly
ill the mountain streams, rendering
roads impassible, while many dwel-
Were entirely -surrounded with

imentsof the South Mountain mil
were also wa-hed away,.
Monday morning, at the request of
Ames, Superintendent of the Com
i, the " Good Will” steamer of our
igb was loaded on the cars. The
, encountered great' difficulty, after
id proceeded a short distance beyond
Holly. The water ran in torrents
ig the Iraofe. and in two places the
ankment and ties' were.comn'elely
lied away. These had to. be rebuilt
ire the train could pass, and after
ililhg the furnace, a corduroy bridge
built, to run the steamer over the
salble roadi for a distance of 400 or
set- Since it was placed in position,
jteamer has lowered the water at the
of an inch an hour. The design is
duce the water sufficiently to enable
lork'nien to clear away the rubbish
,nd the large pumps, and get them in
infug order. This will probably take
■ral days. '
is Stringency op Money.—About
time every ye4r money Is “ tight,”
lustnowit Is unusually so. In.the
ern cities, we learn that many mer
mts and businessmeu have fulled, and
prospect-is that others will also go
ler. Wesuspeotthls isowingns much
over-trading as to the stringency of
<iey, and also- to the. foolishness of
illng on for higher prices. As It is',
i days of high prices and enormous
iflts are surely passing away, and sooq
r people will be enabled to purchase
) necessaries of life at reasonable rates,
>n after allowing the speculators a rea
ipble profit. The Indications now are
it those In the West and elsewhere,
10 have been controlling the pork mnr

to an unheard-of price, will Ispeedily

in will commiserate their fate.
'he best remedy for hard times Is for
?ry one, particularly at thecommence
it of theyear, to pay their small debts.
mey Is by no means scarce, at least it
always plentiful enough to accomplish

aid prosper and money be kept in oir
latlon. Our own books-show that there

all sums, which, if liquidated, would

comfortable living accommodations.—
Within a year /past some very handsome
buildings have been erected in the bor
ough, as also many small tenements, as
appeared from a detailed statement puh
; lisbed ID the Volunteer last fall. Yet
more people have poured in than can be
accommodated In the new buildings, as
Is evident from the constant rise In rente.
The business of Carlisle Is constantly in
creasing, and 'mechanics and laboring
wen are making it their home. These
must be provided with comfortable tehe
mcnte.at a moderate rent, and wo know
et no better Investment nor a more pres
sing want of the town, than several blocks
c'medlum sized dwelling houses. Next
season we hope to see the houses brought
up sufficient in number and capacity lo

South-East Missouri.— The South
eastern portipn of the great Stale of Mis
souri contains some of tho
most fertile lands iu that State or in the
world. This is (he concurrent testimony
of all persons who are acquainted wiih
that locality. The climate,' which is
semi Southern, is one of tin* most inviting
qualities that appertains to that portion
ofcounlry. Were may be cultivated with
wonderful success and profit, corn, wheat,
oats, rye, barley, both common and sweet
potatoes, all or which yield immense
crops, with even indifferent tillage. In
addition to these hemp is grown with
greatsuccess, and has always been regard-,
.ed as a crop which pays a very large
profit. Cantor beaus and the peanut are
also cultivated successfully,' ami tobacco
is*'very common and highly remunera
tive crop. Cotton, us a mixed crop, is
also raised, and, as every body knows,
always commands money. All varieties
ot fruit, grapes, peaches, pears, appl-s,
cherries, plums, quiuces.'&c., are grown,
and never tail There is indeed, no por-
tion of.the VVeat which now’offers such
inducements to the emigrant or thespucu
jutdrus Soutb-ea/t Missouri, (food lands
may also be bud there, cheaper, at this
time, than in any other portion of the
West. Blit this cheapness cun not long
remain ; for the system of rail roads now
in process of construction in (hat part of
the State n ust- soon operate to. tuiug us
the price of lands. The Iron Mountain
railroad which is now completed had
served to direct attention to thatcouutry,
and feveral other rail roads which are in
process of construction, can not fail to
add immensely and speedily to the pre
sent price of these lauds. No finer tim
ber can be found any where than
upon 'these lands, consisting of black
walnut, ash, elm, hickory, oak, sugar
.maple, Cyprus, pecan, &c. .Stock grow
ing is also .highly profitable,- because
cattle, sheep and hogs cah be reared at
so little cos(. The mildness of the climate
and the voluntary vegitatlon enables the
stock to run out all winter, without
housing or feeding. - The native blue
grass grows with extraordinary vigor,
and cattle, males and horses, aubsistauce
keep fat upon it the whole seusou.
Mr.,Taylor, who is offering these lands,
is still in our borough, and may be found
at the Beutz House.

Flowers and Fossil-s and other I'okmh; by
John IC. Suiyman, Professor of Ancient Lan
guages and Classical Literature la Dickinson
College—Published by Clnxton, Rumsen & Hel
feillnger, Philadelphia, . t
Tbo appearance of a volume of Foetus
from the pen of a borne author is au
eVout of sulUciutu itnpuriuuce to justify
uu extruded notice. lu this prosaic age,
when the ideal seems to have been driven
Irom the bold of literature by our sturdy
utilitarianism—pouts are not born every
day; and noth withstanding the culture
and refinement, of this community, wo
believe no one bas ever belore entered
the lists for poetic laurels. Indeed tbis
is scarcely to be wondered at, for tlie
I ‘l**) ol great poets seems to be past, livery
field in the realm ol nature and ol thought
bus been occupied by muster minds. Tbe
ripe harvest, with its wealth of golden
sheaves, bus not only been gathered Id,
but the fields.have heeu gieaUCd to bare
ness. It requires no little self-reliance,
tbeiefore, to present a volume of poems
to tbe reading public, when tbe author
is compelled to travel over tbe beaten
paths which hundreds nave trod before
him ; and thus to Jay bimseifopeu to tbe
charge of base imitation, at tbe bauds of
envious and unfavorablecriticism. That
Prof. iStuymau is willing to brave these
charges, serves to heighten our admira
tion Jor bis pluck, and to prepare ut to
do lull justice to tbe *OllOlOB of native
genius, wbeiever we see it flashing aloug
the pages ol his poesy. When we apeak
of lull Justice,, we do not mean iudis
ciimiuute praise, for that would be alike
distasteful to- tbe author, discreditable
to the critic ami unjust to the public.
Rather let it be our duty to present, as
truthfully as we may, a sketch of the
impressions which these poems have
made upon our own mind. We can do
this in no more satisfactory manner than
by quoting, pt some length, from the
volume itself, /'•
‘■ Flowers and Fossils " are essen
tially poems of nature. We haveAouncfs
by the Sea-Song of the Wind—Arcady —
Song of the Water—A Heading from the
Rod/cH—The Mill Stream—Pretty Violets—
From Dawn to Dusk, and fifty others lu
a similar strain, to. which the main ob
jection will bold true, Ibiittfbere Is a too
frequent recurrence of the same ideas,
which grow wearisome by iteration. Tbe
idea of life from death—that
rocks worn to dust, and leaves grown
sea r and brown, form tbesnl) from which
new plants spring to life and beauty—is
constantly recurring, and loses all Its
freshness by tbe repetition.
The poems divide themselves into didac
tic. descriptive and! sentimental. The
following, from Flowers & Fossils, may
be taken as a fair sample of the fitst class:
“Who shall truly any
What thing Is old and wholly passed away,
Withiu tbo rouud of birth and growth and death,
Swlit change or slow transitin'- 7 See the <uw
That moves and quickens all, os with the breath
Oi the Eternal! 1 hough the aajs may d aw
To dim conclusion; and the tireless sun
May wake the East, and climb awhile, and fall
To dank and sllenc»*; and the years may run
Tbe circle of the seasons; yet through all
Tbls.nlght, steep, winter, change and dust,
Life find* renewal, and Uih soul a (rust ‘
That out of wreck and death hall only come
Bhupes that are fairer and a sweeter doom."'
And again, in Endurance :
Not happiest of the sons o( earth are those
Whose work • awake In us the sudden I brill,
Whose strength out-inaichos death, whose Iron
will.
No shape of force or wrong can stay or break
Sickness and want: the dungeon an I the stake.
Anguish of heart, earth strip!of all d I -guise,
H ve laid life's secret hare before their eyes,
And pain endured hath made them strong and
wise.
The shont of praise, t he oymbols and the'drum
<ireat monarohs while they live. The worthiest
men
Are laurelled m their ashes.’’
As of - the descriptive, w©
quote tbe
so Ka of •tub wind. .
“T nm lord of (ho realms of the air;
.Many a palace of cloud [ own; .
Gold and purple ami azure, there,
-Are round about ray throno.
Hero on tho breast, I rock
Tno'Jitzy miles and flags to Bleep;
-There I dash with a thunder-shock
Across the billowy deep.
!Now the darkening fog I drift,
Blowing the blindness whither I list;
Now, from the upland slope, I lift
The trailing skirts of mist. .
Now I wonder among the leaves,
Far in the gloom of the woo is; And now
frill the sails of the ship that oleavt-s
The sea with arrowy prow.
Look, I flutter each garden-shoot,.
Daintily kissing the white and red;
Look, the foiest is out by the root,
For the nurrlcane hath sped.
Close by the lattice I whisper low,
Where the happy lovers are met
Round the howling gahl* s I go,
When the ulghtls dark and wet.
Thus I travel over the woi Id <-
Now in the tijue and now In the green 1
The oak Is crashed, and the cloud Is curled,
. But I am all unseen.”
The sentimental finds expression in
the poet's pen-picture of bis saint. In
our humble Judgment it is a gem of po
etry which will stand comparison with
anythlug our American poets have writ
ten :
MY SAINT.
11 No fairer form, no sweeter face
Haih pout dreamed nor limner painted ;
No heavonller shape of life and grace
Hath love portrayed or worship sainted.
O she Is fair, surpassing fair;
The very light that fails upon her,
Makes golden halo round her hair,
And smiles and glows to do her honor
The sweetest breaths In all the sky, .
Quit budding bough and op ning hlhSHom,
To syllable hern »fwst. nig »,
And rest lu rapture on her bogom.
But fairer tbanthlsontward show.
The soul of love that dwells within her;
Shine golden light, winds whjsper low,
And tell mo, tell me how to .win her.”
We trust-the rwullr will agree with us
that this Is all very, creditable poetry
poetry worthy of a place on our library
shelves by the side of Hokerand Buchan
an Read—and yet It has its demerits.—
The first general impression made upon
the mind, after a casual perudhi, is that
Prof. Stayman has been a close aud
thoughtful student of the standard poet-*,
aud unconsciously has woven into the
woof of his song many of their ideas and
similes. The lines last quoted will serve
to illustrate our meaning. The first
verse forcibly reminds us of Scott's de
scription of the M Lady of the Lake ’ *
With looks flung back, amt lips apart
Like monument of Grecian art—
And ne’er did Gieolon chisel trace
A nymph, a naiad or a grace,
Of finer form or lovelier face.”
And again,;when he tells ns,
" What, moifttbrs wallowed In Die mad,
And sprawled and crawled among thehllme;
« • « • • •
Whattoeth and tunks ond raverfnua Jaws— .
Hepu'chral throats to growl and howl—
And things with leathern wings and claws, 1
, - •’ • (
In the ** auoiem. clays of tire end flood,’
the mind unconsciously recurs to Tenny
sou’s “In Memorium," whore the poet
slugs of
"The dragons of .the prime,
That tare each other In the slime.
• - *!,.*,• . • * O'
. , While picture, red In tooth and claw
~. ,/ With ravlhi shrjpked agalpst fda freed.” .
In the lines addressed * To tbo liß©,' we
tiud the following:
“ Wandering away from your homo no far,
ity wlmt compass or guiding slur
Trade you the pathless air, and lly *
Straight -lor the hive, through thechartlesa
sUy?” ' * ,
In Brvnnt’a lines to n WnforhnW we
read: '• ;
•'There m a pdwer.whose car®
Touches thi’ wiry atopg the paLhlnHsoya'it—
The desert and llllipltuhlo air—
Lone wandering but ,not lost,/
And - Anally, wh'.n the poet’s work la
Hi©, and lie “slitkH to rest,” while
silence umdrlnuatlie lute,” he declares:
“If any Kopg that I have sun*
Huh ill rilled a pulse or h tiered n tear,
If any thought hua found a tongue
To make some dearness dnubiy dear, 1
« » - « • • t <* ■
Then I am even more than blest. 1 ’
In the concluding vei>o of llit* la.-t
canto oiChilde Harold, Byron nlngs :
•• Vo who hove traced the pilgrim to the scene.
Which Is his last, If In vnunhemojleadwejl
A (hmight which once was his, if on yo swell
A single recollection, not In vain
Ho wore his sandal-Khoon,and scallop-shell.
We regret tbes*e reaemhlrnces, because
they have so seriously marred, our own
enjoyment of Prof. Stuymaii's poems.
That they have unconaoioutfy mingled
wWhj:he current of his thoughts, we feel
entirely satisfied from the very manner
of thdir reproduotlqn. * *
The want of sustained elevation of
thought—the sudden transition from
conceptions worthy of Immortal verse to
Ideas that are commonplace mid desti
tute of poetic inspiration—i» painful In
the extreme. ‘ Wecannotbetterillustrate
than by quoting the "Three (ailed Pacha.”
When the mighty Pacha rides by,
With nIH three tailed badge of station,
'TIs an emblem. I take Ir, to signify
Thnt he and his drows' nation
In the march of non, do oocupy
The fag-end of civilization*
It seems scarcely ci edible that the au
thor of" My Saint” and of tide doggerel
is the same person ; and we trust we may
be permitted to doubt whether the lattei
contains either poetic fire, creditable
rhyme, or passable'wit. We wish it had
been omitted entirely from .the collection.
Another rather doubtful attempt a
wit occurs In “ The Mill Stream”:
Then lot the heavy wheel go round
And let the mill be crammed;
What care 1 T I was happy once,'
But now. alas I I’m damned.
To say the least, the pun is of questiona
ble propriety at tiie end of those really
pretty verses, and In point of dlgulty re
minds us of .Mr. Tony Weller's accustom
ed : " veil I cmdamued!”
Of the same questionable propriety is
nn occasional distorted expression given
to a word, as *‘au early
world done in fossils." Artists speak .pro
fessionally of paintings
statues done in marble, J 6ut’lt scarcely
comportes with, the dignity of didactic
poetry to speak oi a ‘‘ world done in Fos
sils."
There is here and there an obscure and
awkward expression, as, for instance,
'* I hear the music of the ancient sages,
Blown from earth’s early morn.
Or Close doth pntn
Fo low on pleasure, shadow at once and foil
To light and life.
Our examination of these poems ba«
necessarily been somewhat cursory, and
we have fully realized the difficulty of
reviewing, r in a few hours, what Imp
doubtless been the labor-of years. We
hav« spoken wit h candor of some of the
individual merits and demerits which
caught our eye, and now that we have
closed (he volume upon our table, we
cohtemplate .lt, as a whole, with the,
liveliest gratification. There are some
pnasaees ln.it which are very sweet, some
which are very sensible, and some which
are truly elevated In thought and expres
sion. There are some jingling rhymes
which will continue to sound in onr ears
for days to come. It Is a book l
mbeen horn to live, and* we trust it wl’l
command a larire sale, especially, In this
community, where the author Is known
as a gentleman of culture and genius.
Fair.— The falrof the Union Fire Com
pany, which has been In progress for ten
days past, closed on Tuesday evening.—
It‘bos b*en quite, successful, the gross
proceeds reaching about $lBOO,OO. The
Union hoys have dotietheirbest to please
the public, and we are pleased to learn
that iheir fair has been so handsomely
encouraged.
Death of. a Minister.— We regret to
announce the death of that most excel
lent Christian gentleman, Rev. VVrn. JR,
Mills, who was stationed at this place
last year as the pastor of the old Metho-
ciist congregation. He died 'at York,
suddenly, oh the 19th ult. He was a man
much beloved, and was a shining light In
his profession. He was at/be time of Ms
death, Pastor of the Methodist congrega
tion In York.
