Lilly Lee
I did love thee, Lilly Lee,
As the petrel loves the sea,
As the wild bird loves the thyme,
As the poet loves the rhyme,
As the blossoms loved the dew—
But the angels loved thee too.
Once, when twilight's dying head
Prest her golden sheeted bed,
And the silent stare drew near,
White and tremulous with fear,
While the night's repelling frown
Strangled the young zephyr down,
Told all my love for thee,
Hoping, fearing, Lilly Lee.
Fluttered then her gentle breast,
With a troubled sweet unrest.
Like a bird too near the net
Which the fowler's hand hath set ;
But her mournful eyes the while,
And her spirit-speaking smile,
Told me love could not divert
Death's pale arrow from the heart.
Hushing from that very day
Passion pleading to have sway,
Folding close her little hand,
Watched I with her till the sand
Crumbling from beneath her tread,
Lowered her softly to the dead,
Where in peace she waits for me,
Sweetest, dearest Lilly Lee.
As the chased hart loves the wave,
As blind silence loves the•brave,
As the penitent loves prayer,
Ae pale passion loves despair,
Loved I, and still love I thee,
Angel-stolen Lilly Lee.

HE THE AUTHOR OF A MARRIAGE ON THE EVE OF
The town of Herringhausen, not a hundred miles
from Frankfort, is one of the most picturesquely
antique in Germany, and contains about 1'2,000
inhabitants. I like to prepare my readers with a
tolerable idea of the locality wherein the events
narrated transpire—for then I may hope to impress
them with at least a two-fold sympathy in my
dramatic persona'—The street in which Herr Born
garten had his residence, was among the oldest in
the town aforesaid, and his residence the oldest in
it.
He was himself, also, a high dried piece of an
tiquity, usually enveloped in a cloud of smoke from
sunrise to sunset, except only when his fair daugh
ter sat beside him at their evening meal and talked
over the affairs of the day. On such occasions he
would narrate incidents in his progress through
life, and dwell upon acquiring the independence
they then enjoyed. He had one passion in excess
—an intense love of music; and had at one time
been no mean proficient on the violin. At the fes
tivals held periodically in all the principal German
towns, his judgment was appealed to; and, indeed
no meeting of the kind was considered complete ii
he, by any chance, was absent. It may, therefore,
naturally be inferred that his daughter had already
been instructed in the art ; and at twenty she was
a pianist of considerable attainments. These cir
cumstances formed the basis 01 a desire which be-
came stronger with its years, and which confirmed
a resolve that she should wed one of the most ac-
complished musicians of the age. They say that
when all other passions die ambition survives, and
acquires a force proportioned to its solitariness
and singleness of aim. Certainly it is, that out of
the many suitors whom the beauty and gentleness o
the disposition of Azalia attracted to the domicil
of Herr Bomgarten, not one (so scrupulous was he
on the score of musical perfection) was permitted
by him to continue his visits. Anxiety for the
fulfilment of a hope being usually in proportion to
its strength, her sire, a- the young lady approached
twenty-three, began to experience a dread that he
might not see her settled. This preyed upon his
spirits deeply, and urged him to publish, as wide
an possible, his intentions. To that end he invited
to his house, on a certain day, all the class musical
who chose o compete for his daughter, declaring
that at midnight he would decide on the claims of
the aspirants. Now it is necessary that I should
inform my readers that in the grand apartment of
Herr Bomgarten's mansion there was a piece of
furniture supposed to have been fabricated by a
Hungarian 'magician, and which exibited so much
apparent wilfulness that it had been denominated
by common consent the Devil's Clock.
This time-keeping edifice struck all manner of
hours in all manner of ways ; but whatever might
be its vagaries, was always true to the solemn
"twelve" at midnight; so that Herr Bomgarten, not
without reason, fixed upon that hour to decide his
long cherished scheme.
The day at length arrived, and it may be imagin
ed that not a little preparation had been made. The
piano forte (one of Korner's latest improvements)
was placed under a mirror of immense size, and
exactly opposite to the (fatal) clock.
Axelia was dressed in eholiday suit, and look
ed lovelier than usual, and, from this circumstance,
her father augured a prosperous finale. At about
eight o'clock in the evening, the suitors were as
sembled; and the players who ventured to offer
themselves as competitors for so beautiful and so
rich a prize were four in number. They severally
sat down to the instrument, anti each appeared,
more than his predecessor, to astonish the audience;
and it was generally imagined that the last per
former would be entitled to become the fair girl's
husband.. But ere Herr Bomgarten-had quite re
solved in his own mind the exact merits of each
candidate, another stood beside the instrument, and
rather by signs than words, indicated that he too,
must try his skill,
The guests seemed extremely puzzled at this
singular apparition; for up to that moment the Fn
tleman had not been observed in the room at all!
One or two persons, indeed, declared that he had
actually stepped from the clock case as the last
player of the four concluded his fantasia! Be it
as it may, he sat down to the piano, and produced
—but it is wholly impossible to describe the sensa
tion. He now withered up the heart with the in
tensity of his pathos; and again enchanted the soul
with multitudinous images of delight. Then would
he pour over the imagination a storm of harmonies
that exalted it almost to frenzy ; and, anon, sub
dued it to the placidity of childhood. He was a
man; yet, who was het The question was a fear
ful one. He was handsome—his aspect was singu
larly wild and melancholy. He executed with
• marvellous ease, but his mind appeared (judging
from his eye) to be wandering over fields of shot'
remote from that in which he was engaged. He
rose. Her Bomgarten sprang from his seat: and
would have embraced him, but was repelled by his
peculiarity of mein. Few minutes had he to decide,
for midnight was at hand. As to the pretty Azalia,
she wore no expression save only that of extreme
palor, and of internal agitation ; but when the stran
ger, as the clock struck •twelve," touched her hand
to depart, she rose at once, and without apparent
reluctance. The most surprising part of the whole
business was this, that the stranger holding the
hand of the young lady, proceeded at once to the
Devil's Clock, and -giving one melancholy glance
at the company, touched a spring and retired
- within its case.
As the door closed on the fatal couple, a mur
mur of horror ran through the assembled guests.
The unhappy father was so affected that he fainted
away, and as sensation returned, declared that he
repented him sorely of hiving, as it were, interfered
with the decrees of Providence. "Ah!" he exclaim
ed, "would that I had selected some honest youth"
among our neighbors for her husbandl—Carl von
Muller, for instance, who loved her dearly, and was j
beloved in.return, and whom I drove from the house.
Scarcely had he made his avowal when the clock
case again opened, and the stranger, stepping from
it, said in a sepulchral voice, "If your daughter, 0
man of ambitipus views, were now married to!
Carl von Muller, would you give you her blessing ?'
"I would! I would !" exclaimed the old man sob
bing. "Then," exclaimed the appiration, "come
forth, ye happy pair!" At these words the door
of the room opened, and Carl von Muller and his
lovely bride entered, approached the master of the
house and knelt at his feet. °Now," said the stran
ger, •let me turn this gloom into merriment. My
name is Mendelshon, the composer: I have just
returned from Italy ; I am the bosom friend of Carl
von Muller: that clock has a communication with
the church of St. Roque, (the choristers who al
ways set it right at twelve at night, from supersti
tious feeling, play a variety of tricks with it by
day;) and I have been the means of doing an act
of friendship and justice." As to the moral—but
no ; we will think of that some other time: for now
it behooves us solely to be joyous—and a merrier,
a happier evening, was never spent in the good
old town of Herringhausen.
Two Years in Heaven
• - - - • - - - - •
Tiara yeirs ago to-day, he went to heaven. With
us they have been long, long years, since we heard
the sound of his sweet voice and the merry laugh
that burst from his glad heart. He was the young
est of our flock. Three summers he had been with
us, and 0! he was brighter and sunnier than any
summer day of them all. But he died as the third
year of his life was closing. The others were older
than he, and all we had of childhood's glee and glad
ness were buried, when we laid him in the grave.
Since then our hearts have been yearning for the
boy that is gone. "Gone, but not lost!" eve have
said a thousand times; and we think of him ever as
living and blessed in another place not far from us.
Two years in Heaven! They do not measure
time in that world; there are no weeks, or months
or years; but all the time we have been mourning
his absence here, he has been happy there. And
when we think of what he has been enjoying,
and
the rapid progress he has been making, we feel that
it is well for him that he has been taken away.
Two years with Angels! They have been his
constant companions, his teachers too; and from
them be has drawn lessons of knowledge and of love.
The cherubim is said to excel in knowledge, while
love glows more ardently in the breast of seraphim.
He has been two years in the company of both, and
must have become very like them.
Two years with the Redeemer! They have told
him of the Saviour in whose blood they wash their
robes and whose righteousness, is their salvation. The
child while with us, knew little of Jesus and his dy
ing love; but he has heard of Him now, and has
learned to love Him who said, "Suffer little children
to come unto me." There are some among those
redeemed who would have loved him here had they
been living with us; but they went to glory before
him, and have welcomed him now to their compa
ny. I am not sure they know him as our child;
and yet do we love to think that he is in the arms
of those who are gone from our arms, and thus bro
ken families are re-united around the throne of God
and the Lamb.
Two-years with Christ! It is joy to know that
our child has been two years with'the Saviour, in
his immediate presence; learning of him, and ma
king heaven vocal with songs ut rapture and love.
The blessed Saviour took little children in his arms
when he was here on earth, anll he takes them in
his bosom there. Blessed Jesus! blessed children!
blessed child !
He often wept when he was with us; he suflered
much before he stied; seven (lays and nights he was
torn with fierce convulsions ere his soul yielded and
fled to heaven. But now for two years he has not
wept! He has known no pain for two years.—
That little child who was pleased with a rattle,
now meets with angels and feels himself at home.
He walks among the tallest spirits that bend in the
presence of the Infinite, and is as free and happy as
any who are there. And when we think of joys
that are his, we are more than willing that he
should stay where he now dwells, though our hope
is darkened by the shadow of his grave, and our
hearts are aching all the time for . his return. Long
and weary have been the years without him, but
they have been blessed years to him in heaven.—
"Even so, Father." 'Not our will, but thine be
dune."
CISOLERA ore lows..—PoisoNiNa or Two COIL
DHEN.—CAIITTON TO DitIIGGISTS.—We saw a letter
says the Boston Post, received in this city, yester
day, from Dubuque, lowa, dated June Bth. from
which we are permitted to make the following ex
tract terrible disease made its appearance
here yesterday, which is called by some cholera,
by others plague, and by others ship-fever of a very
Malignant type. It has already swept oft large
numbers, how many, none but the undertakers can
know, because the facts are kept as quiet as possi
ble for 'fear of spreading alarm. Three funeral pro
cessions have just passed my window, and I don't
know how many more have taken place during
the day. The cases are confined chiefly to the poor
Irish and French in the lower and most filthy parts
of the town. The river has been unusually high
this spring and overflowed that section, rendering
it naturally unhealthy., One of our Main street
merchants was taken (sick last night with the
same disease and died in a few hours.
A most distressing e4ent occurred here last week,
which, together with the above named calamity,
has cast a gloom over the city. ,Two lovely little
children of a Mr. Fennimore were taken with
measles (which diseasejis also prevailng here to
considerable extent). A physician was called to
them and left a prescription for a simple mixture,
and the druggist through-a most unpardonable mis
take put up a compound containing a large pro
portion of morphine. This was given to the chil
dren during the night, at intervals, creating a deep
sleep. The parents had no cause for alarm, until
five o'clock in the morning when a physician was
sent for, but it was to late too save the little ones
and they died the samelafternoon, within an hour
of each other. Mr. Fennimore's eldest and only re
maining child was kicked in the head by a horse,
a few weeks since, an& it is thought cannot live.
He is truly afflicted." !
TROUT FISHING ERTRAORDINARY.—The Potts
ville Emporium of the .17th inst., says:—Our young
friends and fellow-townsmen Capt. Womelsdoff. T.
F. Beatty, J. M. Beatty. and Solomon Hoover, re
turned on Thursday last from an excursion to Sul
livan county of about a week, which must have
yielded more glorious sport in the way of Trout
fishing, than usually falls to the lot of fishermen in
any part of our country. The scene of their ope
rations woo the Loyalsock creek, about ten miles
below the Berwick and Towanda turnpike at Ellis'
tavern, where they were engaged in fishing between
four and five days, during which time they caught
about fifteen hundred . Ttout, some of them of extra
ordinary size. A bountiful "mess - was kindly sent
to the editor of the Emporium, (the largest Trout
measuring full fourteen inches in length.) for which
he begs the young gentlemen to accept his unfeign
ed.acknowledgment. May they never fish in vain.
A &LOCKING IticinEwr.—The Mobile Tribune
says:—'A terrible and bloody incident occurred a
few days ago, which illustrates the sanguinary na
ture of the Indian. A member of the Choctaw
tribe, which has an encampment on the line of the
railroad near Citronelle, recently murdered another.
The deed, we believe was committed' in Mobile.—
The victim was a son of 'Billy" a drunken Choc
, taw, whom, doubtless, the reader has frequently en
countered in the streets begging, and exhibiting
written testimonials of his claims on public charity.
The body of the dead man was borne on the rail
road cars and buried according to Indian rites.—
Billy, it is stated, subsequently threatened to sliiot
and skin the slayer of his son; and it seems that he
and his friends in the tribe have literally fulfillea
the oath. We learnt
hltateromffeenaddeorwwaansdsettzeerde,
tied in the woods near
deliberately shot. The body was then taken and
skinned, as hunters skin a dear, and the skin was
stretched and hung up on the limbs of a tree. The
flesh was. cut into pieces, borne about on sticks and
afterwards burned. The skeleton, as we are told,
was absolutely brought afterwards to town and of.

"THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR COMMANDS T GREATEST REIVARD."-,Buthanan,
CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 6, 1852.
Our New York Correspondence
NEw Yuan', June 24, 1852.
EDITOR the rank and file of the Whig
Party of this city, and indeed, of the Union, were
left to pursue the prompting° of their own inclina
tions and their better judgment, the Democratic
candidates for the Presidency and Vice Presidency
would he elected next fall, by a large majority.—
,But the masses, having little leisure or inclination
to investigate the merits of rival candidates, are
obliged either to abstain from voting, or to follow
the advice of those who assume to profess .a full
knowledge of the wants of the country, and of the
capability and disposition of different men to con
tribute to satisfy those wants. Every man's first
duties are to his family and to himself—those per
formed, he will give attention to other things :lc- .
cording to the bent of his mind.
Now, there is no disguising the fact that, as mat
ters now stand, the nomination and election of can
didates for any office depend mainly on the press,
and on a few intimate and influential friends of theas
piranta wno have the leisure to attend to the details
of politics, or who have adopted patriotism as a
profession. This, of course, should not be the case,
and it will all be made right, in good time, by the
influence of sound Democratic principles working
directly on, and permeating indirectly, the entire
social fabric.
But while, as good Democrats, we keep working
to make the world what it should be, we must nev
er forget what it is. Hence the importance of re
quiring of our leading and most active politicians,
to whom much discretionary power is often given,
the most sterling integrity, unsuspected love of re
publican institutions, and dogged faith in the pow
er of God and the people.
I ant happy to be able to say that the men who
now stand at the head of the Democratic party in
this city are men of sterling private character, and
untiring energy and perseverance. They are de-.
termined also to take all fair and lawful means to
'put Franklin Pierce and Wm. R. King in the two
highest offices in the gift of the people. It grieves
me much as a N. Yorker, to be obliged to confess that
it would be difficult to rake and scrape together from
the four quarters of the globe, a more reckless, un
principled set of fellows, in private as well as in
public life, than the men who pull the wires for the
Whig party of this city. They have already com
menced to disseminate, orally and through the
columns of their newpapers, the - vilest slanders of
our nominee; and many Of them openly avow their
determination to beat him—fairly if they can, but
at any rate heat him. But they can't. We have
God and the Right on our side.
The news from California is quite encouraging
for those who are interested in quartz mining. The
most successful mine that is worked upon a large
scale is the " Quartz Mining Company" in Grass
Valley, most of the stock in which is held by two
gentlemen formerly of Massachusetts, Mr. Crosset,
of Boston, and Mr. Cook, of Nantucket. These
gentlemen were the original proprietors of the
" claims" of the company. The California papers
state that the stockholders receive monthly divi
dends of from:fen to fifteen per cent. and that other
companies having " claims " in Grass Valley will
soon be started with equal chances of success.—
A company called the "Manhattan Company" of
which Mr. J. A. Collins is President, and Horace
Greeley Treasurer, has lately opened an office in
Broadway, and is selling a good deal of stock.—
The shares are put low- , --at 8100, which accounts
in some measure for their rapid sale. Greeley and
those interested with him are said to have feather
ed their nests handsomely, by mining; but, like Ol
iver Twist, Horace wants more."
Rowdyism has become so alarmingly prevalent
in this city, that a number of respectable men have
met for the purpose of taking the preliminary steps
for forming a society similar to the famomi " Vigi
lance Committee" that struck such terror into the
rogues of San Francisco, and finally succeeded in
restoring that riot ridden city to comparative order.
Our policemen, aldermen, and even our justices
and judges, are so completely under the influence
of grog-shop politicians, and rowdies of the very
lowest class, many of whom have served two or
three terms in State Prisons, that assaults, robbe
ries, rapes, and even murders, are almost nightly
perpetrated with impunity—the rowdies managing
through the influence of the officials, to hush up
the matter and keep it from the reporters. But,
before many more murders, rapes, robberies, or
assaults are committed, some very fierce demon
stration will be made by our indignant citizens; and
a' this is to rctually occur, it is imperatively need
ful that those citizens should he as well organized

Yesterday, the Collector of the Port of New
York showed me some valuable articles which he
has just received from the State Department at
Washington, presented by the British Government,

rende-ed to British seamen in distress, viz : a box
containing a splendid gold medal and a sextant-be
stowed upon Capt. Alex. Baxter of the Cleone of N.

and crew of the British brig, Elizabeth; and three
gold medals, one to Capt. W. rl. Howard of th e
U. S. packet ship, Daniel Webster; one to Captain
Levi Marston of the U, S. brig, Harriet ; and one

Webb of the Courier has had another severe

Business in dry goads is quite fair ; but there is
no bustle. There has been more demand for sum
mer goods ; and both clothiers and jobbers have run
short of stock. Early buyers from the south west
ern States are also looking round; and sales are
more numerous than has hitherto been usual in
June; while the prospects for July are very bright.
The shipping demand for California is active ; and
the foreign export demand is very considerable.

ROTARY STEAM-PLOUGIL—This is the name of a
new plough, just introduced among the agricultu•
ralists of Scotland. It is got up on a new plan.—
The ploughs, or rather the iron horns, which act as
ploughs, revolve on a shalt like a water-wheel. It
stirs up about three feet of earth at once, and so scat
ters and pulverizes it as to make it look like the
work of a spade. It moves at a good pace being
no less a velocity that 2550 yards per hour, plough
ing about six acres in one day. The price of it is
£3OO, or $1455. It requires an engineer and two
laborers to attend it. Altogether this plough is
very useful, and a decided improvement on all for
mer steam-ploughs. It will never be introduced
into America, for the reason that it is too large and
expensive. But while it will hot become domesti
cated with us, it will be a production of much
good. It will show our farmers what is doing in
other parts of the world to make steam-power sub
servient to man in tilling the earth. It will, no
drat, also afford many good hints to some of our
inventors, for steam power will yet be employed
more extensively for agricultural purposes in our
country than it is at present, especially in the West
and Southwest regions. This plough, wh'n not
tilling, can be thrown out of gear with the engine,
which can then be made, by pully and belt, to
drive a threshing machine and many other ma
chines.—Scientific ./American.

DR. JOHNSTON,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, Graduate from one of the most eminent Col
leges of the United States and the greater part of
whose life has been spent in , the hospitals of Lon
don, Parts, Philadelphia, and elsewhere, has affect
ed some of the most astonishing cures that were
ever known. Many troubled with ringing in the
ears and head when asleep,great nervousness, being
alarmed at sudden sounds, and bashfulness, with
frequent blushing, attended, sometimes, with de
rangement of mind, were cured immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. J. addresses all those who have Injured
themselves by private and improper indulgencies,
that secret and solitary habits, which ruin both
body and mind, unfitting them for either business
or society.
These are some of the sad and melancholy ef
fects produced by early.. habits of youth, viz :
Weakness of the back and limbs, Pains in the head,
Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Power Pal.
pitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita
bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions,
General Debility, Symptoms ot Consumption, &c.
Alentully.—The tearful effects on the mind are
much to be dreaded : Loss of Memory, Confusion
of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Gail of Forebo
ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of
Solitude, Timidity, &c. are some of the evils pro
duced'
NERVOUS DEBILITY.
Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and
premature decay generally arises from the destruct
ive habit of youth, that solitary practice so Fatal to
the healthful existence of man, and it is the young
who are the most apt to become its Victims from
„an ignorance of the dangers to , which 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 of . .en do they
ascribe to other causes the wasting of the frame,
Palpitation of the Ilea ~• Dyspepsia, Indigestion,
Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and
Symptoms of Consumption, also those serious
Mental effects, such as loss of Memory, Deprea•
sion of Spirits or peculiar fits of Melancholy, when
the truth is they have been caused by indulging
Pernicious but alluring practices, destructive to
both Body and Mind. Thus are swept front ex
istence thousands who might have been of use to
their country, a pleasure to their friends, an orna
ment to society.
WEAKNESS 01 , THE ORGANS
immediately cured and full vigor restored.
Oh, how happy hare hundreds of misguided
youths been made, who have been suddenly resto
red to health from the devastations of those terrific
maladies which result from indiscretion. Such
persons, before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
should reflect that a sound mind and body are the
most necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness. Indeed, without this, the journey thro'
life becomes a weary pilgrimage ; the prospect
hourly darkens to the view ; the mind becomes
shadowed with despair, and filled with the melan
choly reflection that the happiness of another be•
comes blighted with our own. Let no false delica
cy prevent you. but apply immediately.
He who places himself under the care of Dr.
JOHNSTON, may religiously confide in his hon
or as a Gentleman, and confidently rely upon his
skill as a Physician
TO S'TR'ANGERS.
The many thousands cured at this institution
within the last ten years, and the numerous im
portant Surgical Operations performed by Dr. J.,
witnessed be the Reporters of the papers and ina
ny other persons, notices of which have appeared
again and again before the public, is a sufficient
uarantce that the afflicted will lied a skilful and
honorable physician.
