Under a spreading chesnut tree The village smithy stands; The smith, a mighty man is he, With large and sinewy hands; And theinneeles Of his brawny arms Are 'strong as Iron bands. His hair is crisp, ,and black, and long; His 'race is like the tan; His browis wet, with honest sweat; • - • He earns whate'er he can, And looks the whole world in the face ? For he owes not any man. Week out, week in, from morn till night, You can hear bis bellows bloW ; Yoti can hear him swing his heavy sledge, With measured beat and stow, Like a sexton ringing the old kirk chimes When the *riming sun is low. And children corning home from school Look in at the open door; .They love to see the flaming forge, And bear the bellows roar, And catch the burning sparks that Of Like chaff from a thrashing floor. He goes on Sunday to the church, And sits among his boys, He hears the palson pray and preach, He hears his - daughter's voice, tinging' in the village choir, And it makes his o heart rejoice. It sounds to him like heernother's voice, Singing in Paradise! He needs must think of her once more. - How in the grave she lies, . And with his hard rough hand he wipes A tear from one his eyes. Toiling—rejoicing'--sorrowing— Onward through life he goes: Each morning sees some task begin, - Each evening sees it close; - Something attempted—something done, Has earned a night's repose. Thanks, thanks to thee, my worthy friend, For the lesson thou hast taught! Thus at the flaming forge of Life Our fortunes must be wrought„ Thus on its sounding anvil shaped Each burning deed and thought. THE SEASON'S, la a quaint, thoughtful little poem, written by a Get man who died n 1676: In fair Spring's fresh budding hours, What adorns our garden bowers? When departing Spring we mourn, What is shed from Summer'si horn 1 Ray and corn What is autumn's bounteous sign Mark of Providence divine 1 When old Winter, hobbling slow, COMPS, what do we gain, d'ye know Ice and snow. Hay and corn, and little flowers, ice, snow, fruit and wine are ours. Given to us every year, By Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, As they each in turn appear. Spring gives treasure; Summer pleasure, Autumn gladdens, Winter saddens, Spring revives, Summer thrives, Autumn pleases, Winter freezes. Therefore, friends, we all have reason To extol each coming . season, Spring and Summer, Autumn, Winter Honor, counsel, deeds sublime, Are the precious gifts of time. From the Friendship's Offering, for 1841. MY BROTHER. Is this my little brother ? .How cold he is and still. Do take him up.4dear, mother! Is he not very ill? No, no ! my child, the dear one Will suffer no more pain, 'Tisdeath makes him so silent: He will not move again. Not hold his little Buns oat! Nor make that plea':::ant noise ! Nor open wide his tiny hand to take the pretty toys. 'Twas little brother's spntrr Which made him laugh and play, That which you loved you. see not; There's nothing hore but clay. Why.do you weep,- thin, mother You said the other day, To.die was only going home: Did brother went to stay ! Will God love to see him, And show pretty things! • And if he cries to come to you, Won't be give him, little wings He has not gone away, child ;, If we love him'with our heaits, His spirit will stay . With us, When this little forte departs. • • • If you are good and gentle, He will always be with you ; And I willtry to grieve no more, • If you are kind and! true. • - We'll kiss once more those lips, ; Then we will go away ; _ And God Will give us happy thoughts, .

Philadelplita, Nov. 15,1840: England.—An American, writing from Liver pool, says : The principal things which struck me' in England in the way 'of improvement since my last visit were' the Railroads, the Galvanic Telegraph,lhe Rude • Light (truly a new one.) and the glass and silk man ufacture for curtains and dr pery. Of the first, the railroads—they may be said, I think, to approach perfection as nearly as possible. They are built for ages, remarkiible for their massiveness and magnifi cence, are architecturally, for the taste, comfort and ; solidity of the cars an d locomotive. I travelled on all that are opened; the Liverpool and Birmingham, the Birmingham and London, the London and South. ampton, and, as finishtd, the Great VVestern, , wlitch is much superior, in every point of view, to any yet constructed.' I havelled at the rate of forty miles an hour upon it, breakfasting in Reading, Berkshire, at. half past eight, and walked the streeti of Londcn be- fore_ten ! It was not without interest to me, that, on a branch road front Birmingham to Cheltenham, just opened, I was whirled by a locomotive made by Norris, in Philadelphia. The Galvanic Telegraph is in use on the London and Blackwell railway—the cars on which are Work- I ed with a rope—and when full, a galvanic wire is 1 touched, and successively, rapid as two treks on a watch is the signal and motion of the cars. The dis tance is tour miles, and were it lour thousand, I am assured the signal would be instantaneous and faith ful. They are laying one. down to Windsor for state purposes, and it is expected they will be in use all over England.' Do we not live in an ago of ne e cromancy, and are not the men of science the only pure and lawful aristocracy of human nature. The Bade Light is a beautiful thing in its way. ft produces an atmosphere of light, concealing the means by which it is done. Passing by the kfoise Guards, I exclaimed—. How brightly the moon shines! You can read the clock by it." 0!" re plied my. friend, as cool as moonshine, that's the Bude Light." I begged an explanation, and,, ap parently astonished at my ignorance, he gave it. Lime and gas are brought into some peculiar con tact, and the effect, as it struck me,. was that of in tensely bright moonlight. The Houses of Lords and Commons are lit in this manner and it is to be intro duced into the theatres. It is very beautiful—and do not think me moonstruck" when I tell you that the chillness and repose of moonshine reminded mm sen sibly while regarding it, that .Juliet's apostrophe, Come thou day in night," is now realized. Alas! for the imaginative race, if matter of fact people upset every thing in this manner. The new manufacture fur curtains and other dra peries is a very gorgeous affair. The rich damask pattern is woven in glass and silk, producing a daz zling effect, beyond silver and gold in richness of I display. ' • A capita) invention is used for the foundation of houses) an invention, too, the more valuable on ac count of its simplicity. The clay that is dug out of the foiindation is mixed tviih a preparation of lime on the very ground of the building, and thus hardened or tt calcined" into a strong substance, makes the best and certainly the cheapest material for foundations yet discovered. It is now universally used in Eng land. MECHANICS The transactions of the present wonderful age, es though guided by the touch of magic influence, have more than fulfilled the bright vision of fancy. The solid rock has beer. dissolved, and a high way established on the mountain's brow, and the earth has been made to throw up treasures more valuable than the diamonds of Golconda. The ocean, with itiz heaving billowe, has became tributary to oante of man, and the land and the air have combined to minister to his comfort: •Everywhere we behold the mighty influence of mind subjecting nature to its authority, and moulding matter to its, will. On all sides the active industry of man is employed in perfecting the monuments of its triumphant skill ; splendid architecture adorns our cities, convenience and utilty abound in every thing which can conduct to happiness. The means of communication I be. tween distant places has been maqe more easy, and as a consequence,.more friendly feelings have been indulged, by those who formerly were encouraged to regard each other as strangers. The earth strides under the cultivating hand of the husbandman, and plenteous crops reward his toil, and chger his heart with joy, No nation can lung maintain its dignity when the arts are not encouraged and fostered with a ,lib era protection. In the same proportiun as they; are held in respect, shall we prosper in strength ind'na. Lions! glory: and when they shall fall into disrepute, and be thought unworthy the cultivation of a tree people the stability of our institutions may, well be doubted. The mighty achievments hourly being effected in the world, proves how immeasurably el. evated above the mere profeisional lean is the me. chanic. Chron.

To Molhers—Children's Food.—A lady of York shire observes in a letter, that in consequence of loosing bee first three children, one during teething, and two of inflamation of the bowels, she gave her fourth child a little lime-water with every article of food, adding a desert, and sometimes only; a tea spoon full of lime-water to every article, whether liquid.or thick. It succeeded is keeping up healthy digestion, and a regular stale of the bowels; the child instead of , being• feVerisb. flatulent, and fretful, as her preceding children had been, continued cool and cheerful, free from-any symptom of indigestion, and cut 'his teeth without — any constitutional distur bance. iSbe has continued thisi practice with • two Mole' children with the itoMe good effects. We have known this simple additioci to the food of children prove very efficacious in incipient cases of rickets and of irritable bow'els, attended with lOoseneds, &c. but if the Child be disposed, to caltiveness on account of its astringent quality, a little u.agnesia should be occasionally added to it. Railways in England.—The following results of calculations made on the subject of railways in England, will be found interesting :—Opened;find to be opened within the year 1840, 1,260 miles, to be opened within the year 1841, 160 miles; to be opened. subsequently, 330 miles; total for which ode have heen•obtained, 1,756 ; of which the shares are now at a premium, 783, miles; at a discount, not exceeding 20 per cent. on the amount of share, 514; total, 1,758 miles. Of the share capital for the above; there is now uncalled for 7,028,0001., of which there are estimated to be called for by the end of ' 1841 about one-half. Of railways entirely opened eteeed ing 20 miles iniength, there are still at a digcount 120 miles.—Railway Inundation of a Colliery.--It is our painful duty to announce one of those fatal colliery accidents which are so prevalent in this dtstrict, from the sod den breaking in of water into a mine, by which five men have unfortunately lost their lives. The I pit is situated near Ravensworth Vale, is called the Farn acres Colliery, and has newly commenced working, and belongs to Messrs. .1. Smith, & Co. On Friday 'morning, the 23d inst. a little before ono o'clock, the bankeman heard a noise, somewhat resembling thun der, and in a little time he discovered that the , pit was 'completely 'inundated with ,water, there being upwards of 16 fathoms in the shaft, and in a few boors more it overflowed. the top of it, where it has continued without any decrease up to the period (Thursday afternoon,) when our reports lett. , The depth of the pit is twenty-one fathoms, and although an engine of forty horse power has been applied to endeavor to pump the water out, it has hitherto proved unavailing; and they are now making some alterations in her stroke, to increase her power, when she will be enabled to pump 740 gallons in umla ute, instead of 244. which addition, It is hoped, will prove effectual in clearing the,pit, or at least in lead ing to the recovery of the bodies of the tinfortinate sufferers. Nothiug certain es yet has been ascer tained. to show where the water camefrom. brifrons the sudden manner in which the pit was filled,' it is supposed to have issued from some old working; The following are , .the names of the sufferers:— James.

Frbm an early tour carriages were continually 'aniving; and by ten o'clock the' town was quite full. At eleven o'clock•the 'prcicesaion formed end pioeeeded to the Sititty, about a mile out of the town, where it was met by the Prisident; John` Rolls, Esq., of the Ren dre; and his ftiends who were loudly cheered. • An address was then read to the president in Welsh end English, to which be replied in a long and able ad- dress, in which' he pointed qut, the benefits which at tended the cymreigyddion, and dwelt upon the an nual increase of members, and money distributed, and the gratifying prospects of the Society.., The Rev. Mr. Price and Sir B. Hall, severally addressed this - meeting at some length, and various prizes were distFibuted. The Bishop of St. was then addressed in Vtielsh . by Jeuan - ab Grtiffydd, the Sec retary of the Cymreigyddion Society, and. his lord ship's,reply was received with the post rapturous op- Planse.- On the Thursday evening a grand full.dresv bail took place at the Angel Inn, Abergavenny, to close the festivities of the bardic session, at which were present nearly 200 ladies and gentle Men. Indeed, the whole affair went off with great eclat, and the, Bishop of St. David's remarked, that he had,never etijoyed two niore delightful days than those passed at the Cambrian festival.

Some excitment has existed in the Forest of Dean during the last week in consequence of the myste rious disappearance of a young woman from the parish of Bream. As there was reasons for suppo sing that she had been murdered, a vigorous searcii was made and the coal pits in the vicinity dragged. After being away six days she, however, returned.

It caused great excitement here; about five or six hundred personslissembled in Victoria-square, near the West gate Hotel; the meeting dissolved very peaceably: Special Constables were sworn..

For want of re ligious and moral instruction, the workmen about the Monmouthshire iron works and collieries are in a state of discontent and chartism, although they have fuU work, and are well paid. say from 14a to 50s, per week: Then look at the contrast about Ross, where the people are better educated ; they earn little, but are happy and contented. It is worthy of remark that none of the Newport rioters were from. Sir John Guest's works. - T. L."
