There la a magnetic neatness, so to speak, throughotit the following lines. The wires which feimnect the visible of nature with the visible of man's heart, are here touched most skilliblly. We do not know Ulm present time of a more delicate composition to rhyme, always excepting Alfred Tennyson, who Is a male faery among poets: Along the smooth and .lender wire, The sleepless heralds run, Fast as the clear and living rays Co streaming from the sun; No peals or flashes heard or seen Their wondrous Bight betray, And yet their words are plainly felt, In cities faraway. I • No summer's heat, nor winters hail, Can check their rapid coon,: They meet unmoved the fierce wind's rate— The rough wave's sweeping force In the long night of rain and wrath, As in the close of day, They rush, whir news of weal or wo, To thousands far away., . But:taster still than tidings borne On that electric cord, Rice the pure thoughts of bier who loves The Christian's life and Lord— Of him who. taught in smiles and tears, with fervent lips ter pray, 'Maintains hiah convene bare on earth With bright worlds far away. Ail though nor orttWani with la breathed, Nor outward answer given, The sighing of that bumble heart is known and felt in heaven : Those long frail wires may bend and break, Those vie*less heralds stray, But Faith's lea et word shall reach the throne Of God, though far away. "THY NAME !" • It tomes to me when health, go round. And o'er the wine their garlands , wreathing The !lowers of wit with music wound Arp freely from t he"goblet breathing: Prom sparkling song and sally gay It comes 0, steal the heart away, And fill my soul, 'mid festal glee, With sad, sweet, silent thoughts of thee. It comes to nie upon the mart Where Care in jostling crowds is rife; - Where-Avarice goads the sordid heart, Or cold Ambition prompts the strife : It tomes to whisper it I'm there, 'Tis but with thee each prize to share, For Fame were not success to me, Nor riches wealth, unshared with thee. It tomes to me when smiles are.bright On gentle lips that murmur round me, And kindling glances dash delight In eyes whose spell world once have bound me Ir.comes—but comes to bring alone, Remembrance of some look or tone, Dearer than ought I hear or see. Because 'iwas worn or biealhed by thee. It comes to me where cloistered boughs Their shadows cast upon the sod; Awhile in Natures fans my vows • Are lifted from her face to Cod;' It comes to tell that all of worth I dream in Deaveri or know on Earth, However bright or dear it be, Is blended with my thought of thee. ROPE AND FAITH. 1 • Even now a radiant angel petit forth, A spirit that bath healing on Ili wings,— 1 And (hob east and west, and mirth and south, To do the bidding of the King of(kines : Stirring men's hearts to compasstelter things, -And leaching Brutherhood,tm that 'meet source Which boldetli In Itself all blessed springs ; 'And showing how In guide Its silver course, When it shall flood the world with deep exulting force. And some shall be too indolent to teach,— And some too proud of other men to learn,- -And some shall clothe their thoughts in mystic speech, So that we scarce their meaning can discern; But all shall feel their hearts within,them burn, (Even those by whom the Holy is denied.) • And in their worldly path shall manse and turn, Because a Presencewalketh by theirside, Not of their eanblier mould—but pure and glorified. And some shall blindly overshont.the mark, ' Whichmilters, feeble handed, fail to hit; And some—like that lone dove that left the ark,.., With reatless and o'crwearied wing to flit Shall seek firm landing fur a deed of worth, And see the water-floods still toter it ; For 'there are many languages on earth, But only one In heaven,' where all good plans have birth. Faint not, 0 Spirit, In dejected mood, Thinking how much ie planned, how little done; Revolt not Heart, though slit. miquiderstood; For gratitude, of all things 'math the sun, Is easiest lost—and insecut est won Doubt not, clear Mind, that workest ont the right For the right's sake—the thin thread niust bt,spun, And patience weave It, ere that sign of might, Truth's banner, wave aloft, full flashing*. the light." Select ktale.f PROPOSAI,S.-4' Sketch for Bachelors. —lt will be deemed vanity at my age to say that at twenty-five, I was possessed of a full share of the ordinary personal charms of youth. Within a little of the ebesterfieldian standard of height, five feet ten, with locks black eMI glossy as the raven's wing. (alas, the driven snow is not whiter now !) with fair complexion, cheeks glovviag with the red tide of youth and health, ae,4 possessing what is generally considered sufficient goud sense and education for all the practical purposes of life. it may he thought that my experience in matters of the heart ought to have proved an exception.to the rule, te that the course of true love never did run smooth." But, alas not so! Itwas my for tune to become acquainted with a young lady pos sessed of so many charm:, mental, morel. and per sonal, and so supereminent in each, that it was indeed impossible for me io avoid falling, as I did, desperately in love with her. As fat as glances of the eye, tremors of the voice, and occasional inuendoes might go, I doubt not that I succeeded full well in imparting to her's knowledge of the state'of my heart ; arid I will not presume upon your patience so much as to detail the erstacy of joy with which I first discovered, through similar media, a reciprocity,offeeling on the part of the young lady.. Let it euffice to say that this was the cast, and that the time came when it was incumbent on me to make a distinct avowal of ,tny love. This, alter long and. per. plexing mental debate, I resolved to do by letter; and after writing some forty, epistles on as many sheets of gilded paper, I finally succeeded in form ing a letter, amounting to about six lines. contain ing, as i thought, the condensed quintessence of everything that could or ought to be said on the subject Of this precious moreeau. I whin now but slight recollection. That it abounded with terms expressive of pure, warm, ardent, glowing, undying, eveilisting and unprecedented affection, I have not the least doubt. But unfortunately,. this littler specimen of epistolary excellence was scarcely finished, when, chancing to peruse some of dhe experiences of a predecessor in the paths or love, I read that nothing was more unwise or dan gerous than making an offer of one's band and heart by means of pan and paper. With the credutitt of a simple mind, I et once gave implicit credence to this doctrine, and fright ened at the fearful pretipice. which I bad sonar. rawly avoided, I immediately destroyed the letter, and resolved to declare myself in person,?with my own lips and voice, and to hear with my owneara, the reply which was to seal my destiny. = Never did an A'exarider, a Wallace, or; Napo leon, feel the inspiring effects of an hernia reirolu- Von more powerfully than I felt the influence of this.

I Walk ed the streets with a proud consciousness of the heroism of my resolution, and in the heights of my pride, fairly feared' lest, in the words of a poet, I should strike the stare with my lofty head., But sensible of the imperfection id human pawets.and conscious that mine, in particular, were liable to fail in so delicate an emergency,•l resolved, at least, to write and commit to memory my declar atory speech. This undignified and foelish thing, I did.. Instead of trustiog to the warm- eutpeur .ing of an ingenuous heart, which, in some way at least would have managed to make iteclf under stood and fat, I committed to memory a cold for mula of words, to, be delivered as the school hey, , recites his speech, ] of which it is sufficient for the purpose of this article to recollect the following 1 sentence: Adams! will you allow ire to offer you my hand and heart!" • • i .

The time,the silence. the scenery—everything was appropriate; :and she, the beautiful, the allied unearthly, seemed, by intuition, to noderstand my thoughts and in tentions, as with bead bent down she gazed (and with a alight blush upon the fair cheeks around which her auburn curls were playing,) upon a moss-rose which the wuearnestly engaged in pul ling to pieces. I was employed in-the equally serious occupation of opening and shutting a snuff-hoz which I bed in nay hand. . ... Alas! where noir was the Alexandrian or Na poleon courage .that" . inspired met I felt my valoroozing out of the palms of my hands. But at last, summoning resolution, like sedan upon the scaffold who wishes to die.with at least Seem ing fortitude, or to use ' a more forcible Mosul'rtur, gathering togethet and concentrating, as it were, all the energies of the mind; after the manner of one about to submit 'to the molt inhuman of all earthly tortures; the extraction of a tooth; I say, With such energy as this, I raised my eyes to those of Isabella, and in the language of my pre pared speech said, "Mira Adams!" The unearthly and startling emphasis with i 'which this rather formal commencement was de livered, seriously frightened both parties. The rose dreppeil froni her fingers, the berfrom mine, and I was only able to follow up this impressive exordium with some common place remark about the beauty of the evening, after which we re lapsed into our former silence. Gathering, however, energy from defeat, I made after a alight pause, a second attempt: s• Miss Adams" said I, in a slow, solemn, sepulchral . voice, ? w ill you--tvill you—SHOW me to offer you—offer you— a pinch of snuff!" 0 Witkpleasure, air," replied a soft, sweet voice. which, in contrast with my own, sounded Ike a', strain of soft music following ur.i the rumblings of an earthquake.

At one time raised to the next highest rank possible for a free people to bestow; a . candi date fur . th e Pre.ideney, idol zed by all—his son shone the brighter only to make the darkness which (o:towed its obacurement appear the more ifoomy. His rise was sudden, still more - sudden WWI his fill. By nue act, which Whim end many oihers, appeared 'one of unavoidable necessity, he was forced to flee his country, hie home. I allude to his duel wittalernilion. It were useless in me, at this late hour, to say aught in extenuation. Hamilton fell; 't is past—let it be forgotten: Again, we find him accused of treason—aye, accused, but acquitted. He crosses over to France, remains there in exile some time, even reduced to extreme poverty. At length he wishes to return to his native land, his mother country. But this is rut allowed—he fails in procuring hie passport... Ultimately he succeeds in reaching New Yuri, and he wires to Es daughter, urging her to meet aim thtle. She consents—he awaits impatiently her arrival—bat she came not. Fearing that she too had deserted him in his hour of need,ha wrote to her husband, who informed him that she had left some three seeks previous. The vessel never reached its destined port, and to this hour we are in ignorance of her positive fate. Now indeed was the cup of the broken-hearted old man full to overflowing. He lingered out a few years of misery, then sank into the grave,' unmourned by those who a few years previous, humbly bent to him the sycophantic knee. Of Theodolite Burr Allston, the beloied daughter, I would speak Ow words.

When the world lost her it lost one of its brightest ornaments. WHITFIELD'S ELOI:iIIENCE-.--The, elo quence of this justly 'celebrated men was at times irresistible. The accomplished skeptic, Chester field, was present when this popular preacher pre sented the votary of sin under thefigure of a blind beggar, led by a little dog. The dog had broken his string. The blind cripple, with his star bo. tween both hands, groped his way unconsciously to the . side of a precipice. As be felt along with hiastaff, it dropped down the descent, too deep to send back an echo. Ho thought it fell on the ground, and bending forward, took one step to recover it. But he OW on vacancy !' (pausing roe a mom ent,) and as he fell_ headlong, Chesterfield sprung from his seat; exclaiming: My heaven ! he's gone!" JAMES late (Thencellor was remarkable for quickness and brevity of. speech. - A Correspondent of the Buffalo Express relates the following ariecdtite of him: Many years ago, when he . was on the circuit, end accompanied by, his lady. he happened CO stop at a log•cahin in the Western part of the State. :The owner'of the cabin was absent, but his wife'ifulfilled his duties, and did all in her power tt accammodate her guests. '/There was but one bed in the haute, and this; when the retiring hour arrived, was kindly, given to the Chancellor and his lady, while the hastens resorted to a temporary bed in the garret of the cabin. About,midnight the husbandef the hosiers arrived, and when strikin; a light, was suddenly aecostedby an unknown human tieing with the following words—•'.My name is Kent; that'd my. wife there; your wife is up stairs." Whereupon the speaker jumped .between the sheets- again, and left his landlord to take care of himself as beat he could. MEMORY AS AFFECTED BY .DISEASE.— It ii stated in several papers that Mr. Hotchkiss, of Brooklyn, who was waylaid by robbers and almost killed some months ago, is entirely recov. erect' in his physical health, but his mind seems much- shattered. He seems to have . forgotten everything ha 'learned during his life;.and is now learning his letters again, as if he were i child. The sounds of his voice, constitute his p;incipal source of amusement. This is or.e,of the many striking instances of disordered 'memory. Dr. "Beagle related the case . of a gentleman who, in consequence of a violent blow cos the head, lost his knowledge, of Greek, but did not appear to have lost anything else. Dr. Abercrombie also relates an instance not less remarkable, of a lady who, in eonrequence of protracted Blom lost the recollection of a period of about :ten or twelve years, but spoke with perfeetsoctsisteney of things as they stood beforsi that time. A cue very rimilarto that related by Dr. Beat tie felt under our 01 , 0 oburestien soma ren'yesre ago.

Woman's Influenee.—How few''the women who are dispored to turn to goad account the.Mfluence they may acquire over men ! In deed, most women 'are incapable of doing ao. Furnished by nature With no sympathies 4 - or men's higher aspirations, they reluct at purposes they ccrniot comprehend, andi_whosc pursuit com petes with their affection ; and thug, as the,brace lets of the Sabines clew Taipei', the love that should have adorned, crushes him. Then ,of the few who natumily• respond to man's loftier aims, most are too timid to encourage them. They con ceive their soft dominion is put in jeopardy by the admisions to his heart ofAuch formidable com petitors as ambition, general benevolence, or the like. They do not understand that lofty desires and a life of earnest action are the best allies of love. ' As the heart becomes nobler, its love becomes nobler also; deeply and truly it cannot lore unless it aspires too. Thus most women fail ot their mission. They regard the love they waken as an end; they look upon it as a means to make a man smolder being. They' were cent to make us not so much lovers as heroes; and come such there are, of that rare order to which belonged L ady Elizabeth.

How is it possible for happiness to reedit from the union of two printiVes so diametri cally opposed to each other , in every point of view, as virtue is to vice! And yet now often is wealth considered a better recommendation to a yoting man than virtue! How often is the first question 'which is asked respecting a suitor of a daughter, “ Is be rich!" la ha rich? Yet, he abounds in wealth ; but does that afford any evidence that he will make a ktihi and affectionate husband'? Is he rich 1 Yes, he has thousands ,Iloating on every ocean; but do not riches sometimes take wings to themselves and fly away 1 and will you consent that your daughter shall marry a man who has nothing to. recommend him but his wealth ?

It took me to find sums and biers for her ; and we'd swell 'em out in a manner shOckin' to hardened !Angers ; and then we'd mosey hum together, while the gait; and fellers kept n lookin" on, as though they'd like to mix in. I'd always stay to supper ; and the way she could make injun cakes, end the way I wood click 'em over with mediums and 'put away, was nothin' to nobody. She was dreadful ci‘il. tew, always gettin' somettlin' nice for me. I was up to the hub in love, and was goin' in for it like a locomotive. Well, things went on in this wiry for a spetl,lill she tilt:4l'6e had me tight enough: Then she began to show off kinder independent like. hi hen I'd go to meetin', there was no room in the pew, when she'd cum and she'd streeke oil with another chap, end leave me euckin' my fin gers at the door. Instead of atickin' to me es she used to do, she got cuttin' around with all the other fellers, jest as if she cared main' about me no more —none whatever. I got considerably riled, and thought I mite as well cum to the end nn it at sermst ; so down I went to have it. out with bee; there was a hull pistol fellers there. They seemed mity quiet till I went in; .then she got talkin' all manner of nonsense—red nothin' to me, and darned little of that. I tried to keep my, dander down, but it warn% any use—l kept twin' about as if I had a pin in my irowsers, I and sweat as if I had been threshin'. :My collar hung dnwc as if it had been hung over my stock to dry., ' I couldn't stand it; so I cleared nut as quirk as I cool; for I seed 'twas no use to say nothin' to her. I went strata to bed, and thought the matter over a Spell— thinks 1, that gal is jest tryin' of me: %sin% no use of our playin' possum: I'll take the kink out of her; if I don't fetch her out of 'that high grass, use me for massage meat..

Ephraim Noway had used to go to see her; he was a clever feller.but he was .dreg Ifal jelus. Well, I went to meetie' with Pa tience, and set rite afore Nancy ; I didn't set my eyri on her till after meetire; she had • feller with her who had a Wain' red head, and legs like a pair of compasses; she bad • 'fare as long ac a thankigivice dinner.

Kept coy eye on Nonce, seed how the cat was jumphe ; she didn't cut about like she did, and looked rather solemnly ; she'd gi'n her tew eyes to kits and make up. I kept it up till I like to have got in a Ellen about Patience. The critter thought I was goinF after her fia good, anti gut as, ,proud as a tame tur k ey. • One day Ephe cam down to our place, lookin' 'at rathy as a English) , omeer. on a trainin' day.

't" Well," sea he, (rather cooled down,) "I em the unluckiest thing in creation.

Scicnce anb 21rt. • -.l;Ein ATMOSPIIERI6,-.4/8 7'emperature. =The presence of the sun is undoubtedly one of. the principal sourcos of heat, as its obeince is of cold ; but if those affections of the atmosphere depended solely on the two causes,an equal tem perature would at the same seasons, prevail in all. places situated under the same parallels. This however is far from being the case ; for the tempe • rature of the eastern coast of America is far colder than that of the western shores of Europe, in the' same latitudes; and the some observationi may with some degree of variation, be extended to they whale of these two continents. It is equally observable, that the trophies) heats of Africa are far greater than those of •the West, India Islamic, and some . other parts of America, situated in iffetarlrigne ; and indeed, art abun dance of proofs might be adduced to show that the temperature of the air in different countries depends on a. variety of circumstances besides geographical psition. One Omit source of heat exists'in the earth ; but whether this arises from any central fire, or from eleMentary beat diffused through the whole mass, it a problem of no easy solution. The warmth which the earth imparts to the atmosplfene, lauds greatly to moderate the cold; and it has by various observations, been found that the same degree of heat exists in all its sulderraneous situa tions at the same depth, or at least, that the varia tions ire extremely small. The condensation of vapor also is another cause of heal, of which It is well known that vapor contains a great quantity. This condensation is often formed hyr the attract , lion Of en electrical cloud, and hence arisen that sultry heat whiCh in summer- is often fell before, rain,, and particularly before a thunder storm. As the earth is the source of heat, distance from tLe earth must consequently be a cause of cold ; and in confirmation. of This theory, it is in variably found that cold increases in proportion to our elevation in the atmosphere. !fence we find even in the equator, mountains of a certain height have their,tops covered with snow. An elevation of 500 yards produces the same ef fect as a distance j 5,000 miles from the equator. Accordingly at an elevation of 13,000 fret we find the frosts of the frozen zone; and at 15 and 16,000 feet, the mountains, based upon tle most , al:torching plains, are capped with perpettail snow and ice.. . The heat of the atmosphere is further augment ! ed by the accumulation of the sun's rays at the surface of the earth. The rays then reflected ihro the air and to surrounding objects, so that. the I reflected heat is often greater than the direct heat ~Of the sun. On this account the heat in valleys,. where the heat is reflected by hills and mountains, is sunartimes very great. In an elevated valley in switmland, the heat is so much increased by reflection that in the centre there is a spot of per petual verdure, in the midst of perpetual snow and glaciers; and there are plains or. the Him match mountains, 15,000 feet above the level of the sea, which produce fine pasturage; and at the height of 'll,OOO feet, which is above the region' of perpetual snows on the Andes, in the eama latitude, barley . and wheat aro known to flourish. " From these and vatiolta other considerations, it is evident that some pelts of the globe are, from, the nature of .the soil, Aid other topographiLel etrettateteneal, .etelosive .of their geogriphical position with lisped' to the equator end the poles, better adapted for the reception and com munication of beat than several others in the tame latitude,. Stones end sands cool end heat more readily, and. to a greater degree than Mould or clay. From this cause proceeds, in a great measure, the excessive hi:stain the sandy desetta Of Arabia and Africa sod th e intense cold of Terndel Fuego. and othei etnny countries in high latitudes. ,Countries that ere nnealtivated,..and coveted with wood, are mneh colder than time which are . . h former its ;open ssst i lsitissted; as proven. accessed solar rays to the earth ar to the 'PM oti*b.thel;tnll3 eo Icel.'. end also prevent is greater number of-eveporathig surfaces than the latter.
