The Lay of Love,
BY GEORGE D. PRENTICE
Yet (dice again I've seen thee,
And my .every thought is thine
Ay, I kneel to thee in worship
As to an idle shrine.
In my spirit's silent chambers,
Wnere hope may never be,
One lonely-light is horning—
'Tie a holy love of thee.
I see thee—oh, I see thee
In the shadows on' the river
I see thee in the moon's sweet•besres
That on the bright lake quiver ;
I see thee in the mists that move
Like spectres o'er the streams,
And at midnight deep I see thee
In the shadowy world of dreams
I see thee—oh, I see thee
In the gentle flowers of spring,
And in the tint the rainbow wears
Upon its fleeting wing;
1 see thee in the sunset ies i
That gush along the west,
And I see thee in the dew-drop
That gems the roses breast.
I hear thee—oh, I hear thee
In the murmuring of the waves,
And in the soft and twilight gush
Of fountains from their caves;
I hear thy voice's music
In each sound that wanders by,
In the cadence of the night bird,
And the wind's mysterious sigh.
I hear thee—uh, 1 hear thee
In the chime of evening hel4,
And in the tone that o'er the deep
At solemn twilight swells;
I hear thee in the forest-lyres
Swept by the breath of even;
And in the low, deep spirit voice
That tells the soul in Heaven'.
I love thee—oh, I love the—
There's naught in the bright blue skies,
No lovely thing of earth but brings
Thy sweet form to my eyes;
I love thee, and there's not a sound,
A tone to my spirit dear,
A breath from nature's lip, but:gives
Thy voice to my ravished ear.
I love thee—oh, I love thee—
Thou art in the darkest hour
To my soul, a star, a fount, a bird,
A music tone, a flower;
I love thee, and the dear thought thrills
Each fibre of my frame,
Like Heaven's own lightning, and my heart
In each throb calls thy name,
I love thee—oh, I love thee,
And 1 would these words were borne
To thee on every holy breeze
Of even tide and morn ;
I love thee, and I would these 'words
Were written on the sky,
And on each Star, and flower, and leaf,
'that greet the gentle eye.
Lydia Darrah the Quakereus
When the British army held prissession of Phil
adelphia, Gen. Howe's head quarters were in Sec
ond street, the fourth dour below• Spruce, in a
house which was before occupied by General Cad
wallader. Directly opposite, resided William and
Lydia Darrah, members of the Society of Friends.
A superior officer in the British army, believed to
be the Adjutant General, fixed Upon one of the
chambers, a back room, for private conference;
and two of them frequently met there, with lire
and candles, in close consultation. About the 2d
of December, the Adjutant General told Lydia that
they would be . in the room at o'clock, and re
main late; and that they wished to retire early to
bed, adding, that when they were going away, they
would call her to let them out, and extinguish their
tire and candles: She accorilingly sent all the fam
ily to bed ; but, as the officer had been so particu
lar, her curiosity was excited. She took ofF her
shoes, and put her ear to the key hole of the con
. clave. She overheard an order read for the British
troops to march out, late in the evening of the
fourth, and attack General Washington's army. then
encamped at White Marsh. On hearing this, she
returned to her room and laid herself down. Soon
after, the officer knocked at her door, but she arose
only at the ihifd summons, having leigned to be
asleep. Her mind was so agitated that from this
moment, she could neither eat nonsleep ; supposing
it to be in her power to save' the lives of thous
ands of her countrymen, but not knowing how she
was to convey the necessary information to Gen.
Washington, nor daring to confide it even to tier
husband. The time left, however was short; she
quickly determined to make her way, quickly
to the American outposts. She informed her fam
ily that, as they were in want of ,flour, she would
go to Frankford for some;, her husband insisted
that she should take with her the servant maid ;
but, to his surprise, she positively: refused. She got
access to General Howe, arid solicited—what he
granted—a pass through the British troops on the
linEs.
Leaving her bag at the mill,:she hastened to
wards the American lines, and encountered an
American Lkeut. Colonel Craig, of the light horse.
who with some men, was on the lookout for intbr
mation. He knew her, and inquired whither she
was going. She answered, in quest of her son; an
officer in the American army ; and prayed the Col
to alight and walk with her. a He did so, ordering
his troops to keep in sight. To him she disclosed
her momentous secret, attecbaving obtained from
him the most solemn promise never to betray her
indi ,, idually, since her life might the at stake with
the British. He conducted her to a house near at
hand, directed a female in it to get her something
to eat. and speeded for bead quarters, .where lie
made General Washington acquainted with what
he had heard. Washington made, of course, all
preparations for baffling the meditated surprise.
Lydia returned home with her flour; sat up
alone to watch the movements of the British
troops; but when they returned in; a few days after,
did not dare to ask a question, th r ough solicitous to
learn the event. The next evening, the Adjutant
General came in, and requested her to walk up to
his room, as he wished to put some questions. She
followed him up in terror; and when he locked the
door, and begged her with an air of misery, to be
seated, she was sure that she was either suspected
or had been betrayed. He inquired earnestly
whether any of the family were! up the night he
and the officers met ' - -she told him that they had
all retired at 10 o'clock. He observed—" I know
you were asleep, for I knocked at your chamber
three times before you heard me.; I am entirely at
a loss to know who gave General Washington in
formation of our intended attack, unless the house
could speak. When we arrived.nea r White Marsh
we found all their cannon mounted, and the troops
prepared to receive us ; and we have marched back
like a parcel of fools." -
DROPSY IN THE CuEsr.—The. Flushing Journal
says that a lady in that place Cured herself of a
dropsy in the.chest by using the roots of the gar
den parsley. A few cleaned roots were boiled in
a quart of water until it was diMinished to a pint.
Repeatedly during the day a small quantity was
taken, mixed with a portion_ of gin. After a few
doses the gin was omitted and,the decoction only
used. The Journal vouches tor the truth of this
case.

Now, girls, said Aunt Hetty, put down your em
broidery and worsted work, do something sensible,
and stop building air -c astles, and talking of lovers
and honey moon;; it makes me_ sick, it's perfectly
antimonial. Lbve is a farce—matrimony is a horn
boa; husbands are domestic Napoleons, Neros, Alex
antlers, sighing for other hearts to conquer atter
they are sure of yours. The honey moon is as short
lived as a lucifer match; after that you may wear
your wedding dress at the wash-tub, and your night
cap to' meeting, and your husband wouldn't know
it. You may pick up your own'. pocket handker
chief, help yourself to a. chair, and split your gown
across the back reaching over the table to get a
piece of butter, while he is laying in his breakfast
as if it was the last meal he should eat thi+ side of
Jordar; when. he gets through lie will aid your di
gestion; (while you are sipping your first cup of
coffee,) by inquiring what you'll have for. dinner.
whether the cold lamb was all ate yesterday, lithe
charcoal is out, and what you gave for the last
green tea you bought.. Then he gets up from the
table, lights his cigar with the last evening's paper
that you have not had a chance to read; gives two
or three whiffs of smoke, sure to give you a head
.iche for the afternoon, and just as his coat tail is
vanishing through the door, apologises for not doing
, that errand" for you yesterday—thinks it doubtful
if he can to-day—`so PRESSED WIT'S II USI MS."-

with some ladies at Vinton's, while you are at home

all day, cant get out to take the a'br, feel as crazy
as a fly in a drum; husband comes home at night,
nods a "hove d'ye do, Fan," boxes Charley:s ears,
stands little Fanny in the corner, sits down in the
easiest chair in the warmest corner, puts feet
up over the grate, shutting out all the fire, while
the baby's little pug-nose grows blue with the cold;
reads the newspaper all to himself, solaces his inner
man with a hot cup of tea, and just as you are la
boring under the hallucination that he will a-k you
to take a mouthful of fresh air with him. he puts
on his dressing-gown and slippers, and begins to.
reckon up the family expenses! after which he lies
down on the Sala, and you keep time with your
needle, while he snores till nine o'clock. Next
morning ask him to leave you a "a little money,"
lie looks at you as if to be sure that you are in
your right' mind, draws a sigh long enough and
strong enough to inflate a pair of bellows, and asks
you "what you want with i', and if half dollar won'.

stockings, and petticoats could be had for half a
dollar! Oh, girls! set your affections on cats, poo

Old time Winters.
In 156.1 the cold was so intense that the Thames
in England, was covered with the ice sixty-one
inches thick.
In 1693 the cold was so excessive that the tarn
ished wolves entered Vienna and attacked beasts,
and even men. Many people in Germany were
frozen to death in 1895, and IGgY was nearly as
bad.
In 17u9 occurred that lemons Winter, called by
distinction the cold winter. All the rivers and
lakes were frozen, and even the sea for several
miles from the shore. The ground was frozen nine
feet deep. Birg and beasts were struck d'ead in
the fields, and men perished by thousands in
their houses. in the south of France the wine
plantations were almost destroyed, nor have they
yet recovered that fatal disaster. The Adriatic sea
was frozen, and even the Mediterranean about Ge
noa; and the citron and orange groves suffered ex
tremely in the finest parts of Italy.
In 171 , 3 the winter was so intense. that people
travelled across the Straits from Copenhagen twthe
province of Senia, in Sweden.
In 1726, in Scotland, multitudts of rattle and
sheep were buried in the snow.
In 17-I(Pthe winter was scarcely inferior to that
0i . q709. The snow lay ten feet deep in Spain and
Pcirtugal. The Zuyder Zee was frozen over, and
thousands of people went over. And the lakes in
England froze,
In '1741 the winter was very cold. Snow fell
in Portugal to the depth - of twenty-three feet on a
level.
In 1734 and 1755 the winters were very: severe
and cold.. In England, the strongest ale, exposed
to the air in a glass, was covered with ice one
eighth of an inch thick. .
In 1771 the Elbe was irozen to the bottom
In 1776 the Danube bore ice live ieet thick be
low Vienna. Vast numbers of the feathered and
tinny tribes perished.
-The winters of 1774 and'l77s were uncommon
ly severe. The Little Belt was frozen over.
From 18.00 to 1812, also, the winters were re
markably cold, particularly in the latter, in Rus
sia, and proved so disastrous to the French army.

CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 2
FIRST ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
Inspectors of the Lancaster Co. Prison.
To the Honorable, the Judges of the Court
of Quarter Sessions of Lancaster County :
In conformity with the requirements of the Act of
the General Assembly, of 19th February, 1850. the In.
spectors of the Lancaster County Prison, submit tho
following report
The Lancaster County Prison was not completed un
til the close of August last. At the August term of
the Court of Quarter Session, for 1951. the Grand Jury,
on the 23rd day of August. decreed, according' to the
provisions of the IMr section of the Act of 19th Feb
ruary. 1350, that the Lancaster County Prison aas
fitted and prepared to receive convicts and other
prisoners," after which the Prison was taken posse , sion
of by the Board of Inspectors. and put under the keep
ership of Jacob Foltz. Esq.. and the furnishing of the
Cells and making the needful preparations for the re
ception of Inmates made in as speedy a manner as cir
cumstances would admit. •
'On the 12th September. 1851, the first prisoners were
received into the Prison, and a new era was begun iu
the treatment of criminals and the punishing of offen
ders in Lancaster county, which the Board confidently
believe, will do honor to the humanity of the County.
But the Board soon discovered that the Prison was
not in many material parts as properly constructed
and completed as to answer the ends contemplated. and
many changes and alterations had to be made.
The aparatus put into the building by the Contrac
tor for warming and heating the cells by STEAM. was
soon found to be entirely insufficient for that purpose.
and it was absolutely necessary. for the health and
comfort of the prisoners. that other and practicable ar
rangements be immediately undertaken. This the
Board did at considerable expense. The nectiAity for
this heavy expenditure upon a building that should
have been in so very material a part, at first perteet.
they very much regret. But the Board have the sat
isfaction of knowing that they have entirely overcome
the defects in the original beating aporatus. and that
instead of cold. damp, unhealthy cells, the whole pris
on department of Eighty cells can be kept constantly
warm, comfortable - and healthy. To attain this grati
fying state, of aliairs.four new furnaces were put up by
Mr. B. M. Peltwell of Philadelphia—two at each end of
the Prison department. or cell building. and heated
air now finds its way into every cell.
Water pipes had to be relaid and reconstructed. and
other changes and improvements made as necessity re
quired.
These defects and imperfections only could be dis
covered by the Board when the building was put into
practical operation for the great purpose of its erection.
Owing to the short time the Prison has been under
the supervision and direction of the Board. but litt.e
opportunity has been afforded for judging of the success
of, the system of separated confinement and labor.
Yet the Boar'd have no hesitancy in expressing it as
their opinion that it will be satisfactory and succeed
well ; and that prisoners will no longer, as is unfortu
nately believed to have been the case under the old
system of imprisonment, : be turned loose upon society.
more hardened in crime and schooled in new lessons of
villainy. Under the old prison arrangements in this
County the youthful offender and the gray haired crimi
nal were in close communion. and the most intimate
fellowship. and instead of reforming the novice in
crime, and restoring him 'to society a refocused man, it
only sunk him deeper in the mire of moral degrada
tion and fitted him better to -live out a life of useless
ness. misery and crime.
The health of the prisoners has generally been good.
and more particularly so. since the improvement in the
warming of the cells. There have been no deaths of
prisoners.

commitments to the Lancaster County Prison from
September 12th 1851, the day on which the first priso

JOSEPH GORNILEY,
WOULD call the attention of his old custo
mers and Blends and the public in general
to his new Clothing Bazaar, which he has upend in
North Queen street, directly opposite Vaukiumu'a
Hotel. His stock of
CLOTHS, CASSIMERES, VF.STINGS AM)
CLOTHING,
is entirely new, of the latest importation and style.
It would be unnecessary to say more than that his
long and well known. experience in business will
command him a very large share *of public patron
age.
His stock consists of all the different colors and
shades of
CLOTHS AND CASSIMERES
that are manufactured ; plain and twilled Cloths,
English and French,plain and doe-skin Cassimeres,
fancy of all sorts of stripes and bars, also
BLACK SATINS AND FANCY VESTINGS.
together with a large stock of Undershirts and
Drawers, white an d fancy Shirts, Collars, and Cra
vats, Hosiery or all kinds and descriptions. His
stock of
READY MADE CLOTHING,
which consists of Over Coats, Sack, Dress and
Frock Coats, Pants and Vests, which are all got up
in the latest and most approved styles.
JOSEPH GORMLEY solicits public inspection
of his Stock, being confident from its being entire
ly new and carefully selected, that he can offer in
ducements to buyers never before offered by any
one ; and by calling at his "Clothing Bazaar "
will
prove conclusively to the minds of all that he can
save them 'twenty per cent. •

WITH all due reverence fur the talents
and virtues of the illustrious philosoper, who
added so much to the dignity of humanity, Messrs.
YOUNG & O'ROURK would ask the distending
citizens of this enlightened republic—and particu
larly their friends in Lancaster City and County
the question 7 cloth it profit a man to be a full man,
a correct man, or a ready man, if he be ndt also
a well dressed man. In order to place within the
reach of every man the opportunity of adding this
fourth requisite of a perfect man—they have just
returned from the city of Philadelphia with their
Fall and Winter Goods of the choicest selections
ever brought to Lancaster, consisting of, black and
various colored Cloths, Pilots, Beavers and English
Kerseys of every color and shade, from the cele
brated manufactory of Bioley, Bishoff, Samones

Cassimere of all descriptions; also, Vestings or
Satin Florentine Silks, Ball Vestings, Fancy Silks
of all description; Woollen Gdods suitable for
winter ware. All the above of the very richest

Ready made Clothing for the. million, consisting

is the only establishment in the city where fashion
is carried to the highest perfection to please the
most fastidious, and art comes to supply nature's
defects. Please call and judge for yourselves.

This declaration'is based on the fact that it will
cure more than nine-tenths:of a class of very prev

FEMALE COMPLAINTS,
and which have heretofore resisted the skill and
exertions of the most accomplished Physicians of
all countries, to a degree, beyond that of almost
every other malady to which the human family is
heir. It has already received the approbation and
t
liberal patronage of very m ny prominentmembers
of the Medical Faculty in tl e United States, willing
do abide the truth, and ha,•ing due regard for the
welfare of their patients, and Min every way worthy
the confidence of the afflicted as a successful, sale
and cheap' remedy. Of thi?, additional proof will
be found in the pamphlet, to which the attention of
Ladies and Practioners is respectfully invited.
This medicine has never been introduced by
empty puffs and misreprelentations, nor is it in
tended that its present popularity shall be gustained
by any medium but its merits and the approbation
of the public. The Catliolcoa is not a "cure-all,"
but is imendcd expressly for Oise complaints incl.
dental to the respectable female whether married
or single—Prolapsus Uteri, or Falling of the Womb;
Fluor Albus, or Whites; Chronic Inflammation.and

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. .1. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by private and improper indulgeneics,
that secret and solitary habits, which ruin both
body and mind, unfitting them for either thisiness
or society.
These are some of the sad and melancholy ef

Weakness of the back and limbs, Pains in the head,
Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Power, Pal
pitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrim
bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions,
General Debility, Symptoms of Consumpti .6, &c.
Mentally.—The fearful effects on the mind are
much to be dreaded: Loss of Memory, Contusion
of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil of Forebo
ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of
Solitude, Timidity, Sec., are some of the evils pro
duced•
NERVOUS DEBILITY
Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and
premature decay generally arises front the destruct
ive habit of youth. that solitary practice so latal to
the healthful existence of Mil, and it is the young
who are the most-apt to become its Victims front
an ignorance of the dangers to winch they subject
themselves: Parents and Guardians are often mis•
led with respect to the cause or source of disease
in their sons and wards. Alas! how often do they
ascribe to oilier causes the wasting of the frame,
Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Indi,testion,
Derangement of Ilse Nervous System. Cough and
Symptoms of Consumption, also those serious
Menial effect,. such as loss of Memory, Depress

their country, a pleasure to their friends+, an orna•

Oh, how happy have hundreds of misgnMed

MARRIAGE,
shoulo reflect that a sound mind and body are the
most necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness. Indeed, withOill this, the journey turn'
life becomes a weary pilgrimage; ihe prospect
hourly darkens to the view; the mind becomes
shadowed with despair, and filled wall the melan
choly reflection that the happiness of another be.
conies blighted with our own. Let no false delica
cy prevent you, but apply immediately.
Ile who places himself under the care of Dr.
JOll NsTo IN, may religiously confide in his hon

ITIHE subscriber respectfully informs the public
1 that he has lately completed a. TRIPLE POW
ER INTERNAL GEARED HORSE POWER,
which outrivals any other in use. it is made en
tirely of Iron, both Frame and Gearing. The Jour
nals are Cast-Steel--its weight is 600 lbs. On trial
it has proved itself capable of performing from 50
to 100 per cent. more work'than other Powers with
the same labor of the team. It is warranted to
hold 8 horses.
I have also completed a combined THRESHER
AND CLEANER, which is capable of Threshing
and Cleaning from 300 to 500 bushels of wheat per
day, with from 6 to 8 Horses, and an equal number
of hands. 4 horses can thresh with it from 100 to
200 bushels per day of wheat, and 400 to 500 of
oats. It is very convenient for those who follow
Threshing, and for two or more farmers to own in
company; it is more convenient to move than any
machine in use. The Machine stands on the wag
on while threshing—the Power is loaded on the
same wagon in moving—two horses are sufficient
to move it; it will save enough labor in threshing
2000 bushels . to pay its extra cost. It will thresh
in the field or by a stack as conveniently as in a barn.
The cylinder and concave can readily be adjusted
so as to thresh with equal facility both tough and dry
grain. It is free from the complication and liability
to get out of order of other machines of the kind,
and of less cost—price $lOO,OO.
