A Swiumburnian Parody.
Certain stanzas in Swinburne's "Atalanta
in Calydon" have been widely quoted.
They begin thus . :
"Between tbesunsei find the sea ,
My , love laid handepand dlps on me
' Of sweet came sour, of day came night,
Of long desire camdbrief delight.
Alt, love, and whatthing came tif thee,
Between the sea-downs and the sea?"
A Writer 'lithe London Orchestra thinks
that this poem is'"euphonions bosh," and. '
-writes the following as quite' as rytlamical,
and much more sensible :
"Between the teatell and the tea
My brand was drawn and passed to me;
Of soup came fish, of fish came meats, , •
Of roasted joints came puffy sweets,
Alt, nuts, andwhat.thing came of ye,
Between the tea-cups and the tea?
"Between the tea-tray and the tea
Bock grew to gripes, gripes grew to me;
Wine turned to drunk and drunk to -
tears,
And general joy to maudlin fears;
Drunk tears, drunk wines, there seemed to be
Between the tea-pot a-pot and the tea.
•
"Between the tedium and the tea
Jones Ignored up an hoar with me;
'Then all among the rocitr9 wares
His feet tolled down the kitehemstaire ;
I eaw 'em go flea .
Between the tea-cakes and the tea."
Inaugural of Governor Bullock, of Mass.
sachusetts—Bis Views on State and
National Affairs. ,
BOSTON, Jan. 6.—Governor Bullock was
inaugurated at noon today, and delivered
his message to the Legislature. The Gov
ernor commericeA:by congratulations that
we assemble for organization under the
auspices of a national peace, and refers to
the sacrifiees of the wax, and its debts and
burdens bequeathed'us, and says:
"But the whole people of the State have
received in return a grand and enduring
remuneration. The practical solution of the
qteation, hitherto open, but now closed, of
a permanent and consolidated Republic for
North America; the Gpvernment of the
United States secured and re-established
beyond a doubt', arid for future ages; and
the freedom of all the races of men secured
by arms and organic law needing only the
sense of political integrity and justice on
the part of the Government to make the
gaaranty universal and unalterable.
%The public debt, the funded and unfunded
debt of the State, amounts in the aggregate
to $23,122,872. :Of this amount the portion
which should be charged to the war ac
count is $15,108,437. The funded debt is
$19,131,435, of which should be set aside as
having accrued from loans to railroad cor
porations, secured by mortgages and cal
lateral securities, in addition to the sinking
funds established for the redemption of the
scrip, $6,574,485. Of the residue, namely,
$12,557,000, all but $450,000 is, amply pro
vided tbr by the sinking funds, whose ac
cumulations from year to year, graduated
upon the most careful computations and
unfailing resources, will be ample for the
payment of the debts for which they are
pledged at their maturity."
After detailing the public debt and means
of payment, the Governor says:
'Every, holder of a Massachusetts bond
in England, on the continent of Europe, or
wherever he may be, at home or abroad,
possesses a security which is as certain of
payment as the existence of the State, and
which is as immutable in the matter of its
payment as gold and silver, which are the
bases of confidence in the commerce of na
tions."
The number of depositors in Savings
Banks is nearly three hundred thousand,
and the deposits sixty million dollars.
The Governor recommends the appoint
ment of a special commission to look after
them.
- All the various local interests, including
popular education, institutions of charity,
- reform and correction, hospitals and alms
hallties, receive considerable space in the
"•`"--sage.

The five hundred thousand

Agricultural interests of the Common
wealth have been sustained with unusual
vigor the past year. The prevalence of an
alarming and destructive disease among
the cattle of Great Britain, known as the
cattle plague, suggests the expediency of
continuing the commission upon contagious
diseases among our own herds and of pro
viding it with an adequate appropriation,
to be used in case of emergency.
-Suggestions are made toward a more sat
isfactory and perfect organization of the
State militia.
The subjectef taking proper care of sol
diers and sailors who fought our battles
is discussed at length, and tpe Governor
says:
"I am satisfied that repectful deference
should be paid to the wishes of the parties
most interested, and that no soldiers or de
pendents of a soldier of sufficient age to
judge for themselves, should against their
will, be - consigned to a public home, or
separated from their friends, or removed
from the town of their residence, unless
mental or moral obliquity should ihmand
it, as is alleged. The great majority of the
disabled would prefer to maintain the do
mestic relation, or to choose a home for
themselves, if destitute of such ties, in some
private family. They should not only be
encouraged, but aided in their efforts, and,
to meet in part the debt of gratitude due
from the State, it has been suggested that
some system of half-pay be devised, which,
like the pay of retired officers, should be
awarded and receited, not so much as a
charity, but as a right.
"Some provision should also be made for
the widows and orphans of the fallen. Bat
for the clastwho cannot, from extreme dis
ability, card for themselves, and prefer to
reside in a "Soldier's Home," provision
might be made, by continuing and enlarg
ing the temporary institution now aided by
the State, in view of the threatened epidemic
which has afflicted the Eastern hemisphere,
and apparently waits only the opening
season to make its advent in the Western,"
The Governor suggests the expediency of
an examination of the statutes defining the
powers and duties of Boards of Health, that,
by suitable amendments, local authorities
may have greater facilities, and, if need be,
greater powers for meeting the possible
emergency.
Referring to Western trade, the Governor
says:
"There can be no doubt that new facilities
and new avenues for transportation between
the West and the East are now absolutely
needed. Our lines of prosperity and growth
are the parallels of latitude which connect
- us with the rich mines and stocks and pro
duce lying around the lakes. -- Manufacturin g
and commerce must have more thorough
fares through which the currents of trade
and life may pass to and fro unobstructed
and ceaseless between the Atlantic and the
nations/ granaries, or decay will at no dis
tant period touch alike her wharves and
her workshops. Let us avert the day in
which our. Commonwealth shall become
chiefly a school-house for the West and 'a
homestead'over which time shall have si
, lently and too soon left the marks of dilapla
6 dation. Any policy which is not broad
enoughto secure to us a New England,
having a proper share in the benefits of this
'new opening . era of the West, be assured,
will not receive the approval of the , next
generation." ' • •
The Governor concludes his message as
follows: -
"Massachusetts and the Union. In this
connection I have thought it proper -to con
fuse myself within those ,subjects which
belong . to" our domestic administration.
Another field lies beyond, broad as the
Republic, laden with painfal anxiety, but
blossoMing with transcendent hopes. It

" If they shall withhold from their own'
People rights of human nature, or of civil;
( ..4overnment those who are thus deprived:
should be supported in their claims by the'

The return of these States 'to the national
council, whether called restoration or read
mission, should be conditioned upon eman
cipation in fact as well as by name, upon
their full and solemn recognition of the
equality of all men before the law. I have
confidence that the President will fulfil the
mission of his predecessor, as the restorer
of the lJnion and the liberator of a race.
But the Congress must be held also to per
form its part. In war it was inevitable that
the Executive overshadowed Congress; in
peace it is necessary that Congress should
resume the exercise of its prerogatives
'under the Constitution.. 'I, for one, am
willing to intrust to the Senators and Repre
sentatives of Massachusetts in that body,
the interest and the convictions of this an
cient of States."
The Republic of Chili.
Chili, or Chile, as it ,is indifferently
writt4Sn, the most
. popnlouS and important
of the South American Republics,: is 'a strip
of land between the Andes and iePacific,
in length of coast line about two thousand
two hundred and seventy miles,,,and
breadth averaging from two hundred miles
to twenty. The harbors along her extensive
coast are neither numerous nor good. The
best of them is Talcahuano,
.in Talcahuano.
Valparaiso,gthough the busiest port of the
country, lies open to winds from the north
ward, and accidents to the shipping in the
harbor are frequent. Besides Chili proper,
the Chiller' government exercises jurisdic
tion over a largenumber of outlying islands.
The population, according to a census,
taken, probably, with the looseness of
Depew, in 1857 was 1,558,453.
The population is very heterogeneous. It
is estimated that only between one-fourth
and one-third of the Chilians are of pgre
Spanish blood, the remainder being made
up of domesticated Indians, and the fruit of
their intercourse with the dominant race.
The industry of the country takes mostly
an agricultural, at least a bucolic turn. The
labor is done by subjugated Indians, who
are reduced to a sort of peonage ; and the
territory is chiefly in the hands of great pro
prietors. The farms often comprise
thousands of acres, and the elevated plains
afford pasturage for immense herds of cattle,
which are bred and slaughtered for the
horns and hides. The tillage is very rude,
and but for the singular fertility of the soil,
would be almost without profit. But the
washings from the mountains which are
spread by the freshets over the lowlands,
and further diffused by a system of irriga
tion which, like that of the Egyptians, is
more advanced than the other processes of
the country, makes the soil so rich that
the surface scratching which is given to
it is rewarded by a yield of from thirty to
sixty bold.
The mineral wealth of Chili is very great.
Gold is found in the Cordilleras near the
coast, and is mined for after a fashion; but
the region which contains it is so inacce_isi
ble, and so exposed to the incursion of pre
datory Indians, of whom bands infest tua
whole interior country; that the amount
obtained yearly is reckoned at less than
half a million of dollars. Silver is worked
more successfully.
In 1858, the last year of which we have
exact inlormatien of their condition, there
were exported of the product of the UAL es
over four millions of dollars. But copper
is the mcst important of the minerals of
Chili, the export in ISSS amounting to SlO,-
700,000, considerably more than half the
value of the entire exports of the year.
The commerce of the country, against
which the existing blockade is directed, is
not, it would seem, of such extent that its
destruction would seriously cripple Chili.
In 185 S the merchant fleet numbered two
hundred end sixty-nine vessels of all sorts.
The government of Chili is, in name, a
republic; but, as always happens when
freedom is thrust upon a race not fit to re
ceive it,-it is a dictatorship. But the forms
of freedom are sedulously preserved, a
cabinet of four ministers—of honie and
foreign affairs, of finance, of war and ma
rine, and of religion and education is or
dained, to assist the President in his exalted
functions, and their integrity is assured by
a constitutional provision that they shall not
depart the realm within six months after
he expiration of their official term.
The Splendors or a winter's Ni;
mintiesorn.
[From the Chnske. (Minn.) kterald, Dec. csd.]
On Thursday evening tyre was presented
to the wondering eyes of cur citizens a most
beautiful and singular display of lunar
light. It differed widely in extent and
beauty from anything of the kind we have
ever seen, reminding one of the descriptions
given by Dr. Kane of the phenomena wit
nessed by Lim in the Polar regions during
his Arctic explorations.
The moon, which had not quite reached
its first quarter, was about twenty degrees
above the western horizon when the celes
tial exhibition was opened by a beautiful
ring of light extending from the moon com
pletely around the heavens parallel to the
horizon, while to the northeast and south
east, in this ring, were two bright sows of
light, or "moon dogs," which seemed the
more remarkable from their being almost
in the opposite side of the heavens.
Around the moon there was a bright cir
cle, as is often noticed before a storm; and
on each side of it, where the small circle
intersected the larger one, were two more
bright spots of light.
This, in itself, was a wonderful sight; but,
to add to its splendor, four beautiful fans
of light, like the trains of as many comets,
stretched away above, below, to the right
and left, at right angles from the moon,
while far up above, in the zenith, a golden
crescent some ten degrees in diameter and
bright with the hues of the Bow of Promise,
that shone over Arabia's desert mountain,
shed down its soft light, crowning as
with a diadem of glory the splendors of the
night.
During all this wonderful display the air
was filled with sparkling crystals of frost
falling in a gentle shower and Sprinkling
all the cold earth with rich jewelS of purity.
indeed it was a beautiful sight and one to
be not soon forgotten. We are unable to
see how any one can look upon such a
display of the Infinite power, as portentous
of evil to come—we are informed that the
world is coming to an end next year—
rather, is it not a fit symbol of the glories
which that goodness is waiting to bestow
upon unworthy man?

CARSON GOLD MINING COMPANY,
NORTH CAROLINA.
The Land of this Company consists of 120 ACMES
Iffecklenberg county, North Carolina. sse• miles from
the town of . Charlotte, on:a branch of Sugar Creek,
which stream hinishes gook-water power for grinding
the ores. This Mine was first opened in 1833 by amen
named Carson, who worked it duccessfally for a num
ber of years. He died in the town of Charlotte, in
1846, worth over half a million dollars. -
• Two shafts have been sunk on this property, one of
them - 80 feet, the' other 60 feet, - on different veins,
averaging from two to three feet in thickness, which
veins still continue on down increasing in width and
richness. These shifte axe in good , order, and ore can
be readily taken out atany time. Other veins havebeen
discovered on this property,, and tested and proved to
be very rich in gold. The ores of this mine are known
se the brown ore, and very rich, yielding readily $lO
per bushel. This is believed to be one of the best and
most certain mines in the State, ori ; account of the
abundance and quality of the ore, and ease in which
it is obtained and reduced. This property has been
worked bg Major Z. A. Cid& teem 1840 to the breaking
Out of the war. This Company have purchased this
property, and intead to erectmachinery and put the
mines in immediate operation. The many advantages
, of this mine over the mines of. Colorado and Nevada
ata hardly be estimated.' It is more readily reached,
and has abundance of fueli with cheap labor. it can
I be worked all the year, and not, as In the case of Colo
redo and Nevada, be compelled to lie idle for three or
four months in consequence Of the severity of the
' winter.
This mine having been worked for a long time
proved to be a rich paying one. We do not, therefore
have to incur the risk there is in an undeveloped pro
perty. but can count on large and Immediate returns
on the investments. HaVing an ore that readily yields
110 per bushel, some' estimate can be made of the
value of this property. With the present imperfect
system of mining in this locality, and absence of pro
per machinery, ten tons of this ore can be taken out
daily from every shaft opened. Estl,,,,atug, say 15
bushels to the ton, the daily yield will be el,soo from
one shaft, allowing poo perday for expenses. The net
product will be $1,210 Per day; counting 300 working
days to the year, the yearly proceeds will be P60,c00,
which yield can be largely increased by extending the
works. This Is considered a very low estimate of the
capacity of this mine by experienced miners of that
locality. The Assayer of the United States Mint at
Charlotte, in speaking of this property, sank it has few
equals in productiveness in that country, and with
proper management and machinery the above Pro
' duct can be doubled.

Sifter, then, - turning the crank, the filour , passees
through the s eve with great rapidity. Glean, very
tine and light.. This Sitter has ; ,no India rubber
rollers to grind up the dirt. such as bugs, worms. flies,

in the sieve; the Sifter is made of tin, is very neat
easy to keep clean. It is the only Sifter , now in use
