Reynolds intended his song as a sec ond part, and in conclusion to his well known song of Green were the Fields," which he bad written in 1792, in the form, aud uuder the disguise, of a street ballad. In the first part he painted from actual observat ion, the sorrows of the ex- iled Irishman, driven from his beloved home. In the second part he described the same exile expiring on a foreign shore, and pouring forth with his dying breath a blessing on his native land. The subjects in both parts are nearly similar; but in the second, they are handled with much more poetic power, 'and are freed from the vulgar disguise of the street ballad. The thoughts imperfectly enounc ed in the first part, after having lain some time longer in the rich crucible of the poet's mind, were in the second part poured forth refined, and energized by reflection, and glowing with enthusiasm, the very essenccof beautiful and perfect poetry. Roth of these poems are written in the same metre an unusual and difficult one, adopted to the Irish melody of " Erin go IJragh," a tune which ap pears unsuitcd to any poetry, except such as tells of Irish sorrow, and which in part has never been united to words possess ing poetic merit upon any other subject. The noble and melancholy air seems formed to waft abroad the tones of Irish suffering, and like some time-sweetened bell, as often as its music is awakened by the poet's wand, it ever rings the sweet and mournful knell for some departed joy, or blighted happiness, or buried hope of Ireland. The " Exile" is a record of domestic trial, pointing to the causes of popular excitement showing the heavings of the Irish heart, before it was driveu into wild rebellion. On the ocean of Ireland's sor rows, it is the starlight which arises from the dim aud indistinct stupor of oppres sion. The sounds have their birth in the storm, and their melody in the tempest. They relieve the throbbings of the suf ferer, and inspire the desolate. The first part was written in 1792 and the second in 1798. THE EXILE OF ERIN. BY liDOKUC MOUNT UKYNOLD8. PART I. 1702.

When a boy, he said he took lessous in singiug, and one Sunday morning he went into his fa ther's garret to practice by himself. When in full play he was sent for by tho old gentleman. " This is pretty conduct," said the father, " a pretty employment for a son of pious parents to saw boards on the Sabbath morning, loud enough to be heard by the neighbors. Sit down and take your book." The young man was excused from singing the proposed song. Remember the Drunkard. Cannot Miuisters of Christ agree to preach more against the dangers of the cup? From many pulpits this whole subject is entirely excluded. The drunk ard is r.arely prayed for; the young not warned against the ensnaring devi.ee of the devil; the law of God against drunk enness is substantially ignored? And yet. it is undeniable that the bottle is sending more souls to perdition thau all the infidel tongues aud pens in the land.

Important arrest of Counterfeiters in Philadelphia, , Philadelphia, Sept. 27. Dr. M. V. Garman, Nat. Kinsey, and a Miss Caroline Heron were arrested last night on a charge of manufacturing counterfeit bank notes. The officer also seized 22.600 of finished and 100,000 of unfinished notes. They also captured the plates for printing notes ' on tho Fourth National Rank of New-! A Sermon for the Discontented. York City and 50-ccnt fractional currency j together with the presses, inks, &c. Since j the arrest of Dr. Garman it has been as certained that he had a contract to sup ply notes on the First National Rank of our city, to be executed next week. Garman is suppose! to be the man who first issued counterfeit fractional currency notes. The parties will have a bearing before the United States Commissioner immediately. For years past Garman has been sus pected of beiug engaged in the counter feit business, and the detectives have been after him through Ohio and this State, but never could obtain svTfficient to warrant them iu arresting him. Garman has been living in this for nine months past, but has been very careful to conceal his place of residence. He would some times consume nearly a half day in reach ing his home, taking a very rouudabout course, in order to throw off of their guard any persons who might be watching him. It was finally ascertained that Miss Heron had relatives in Ohio, with whom she corresponded. Last -evening she made her appearance at the Post-Office, and was followed to a home No. 44 Dickcr-son-st. The house was surrounded, and a watch was kept for Garman ne was seen to cemc out, and was followed to Eleventh and Spruce-sts., when he was captured, with Kiusey, who is an engrav er. The officers who had been left to watch the house in Diekcrson-st. then took possession of it, and found Miss He ron there. The presses, paper, ink, &c, employed in the manufacture of the money were all found in the hou:e. The busi ness was carried on so quietly that it was not suspected by the neighbors, and in order that no noie might be heard, india rubber was placed under the press. How to Become a Millionare. John McDonouirh. the millionare upon of New Orleans, has engraved upon his tomb a series of maxims he has inscribed as the rule for his guidauce through life, and to which his success iu business is mainly attributed. They contain so much wisdom that we copy them : Rules for Guidance of My Life, 1S04. Remember always that labor is one of the conditions of our existence. Time is gold ; throw not one minute away, but place each one to account. Do unto all men a3 you would be done by. Never put off till to-morrow what you can to day. Never bid auothcr do what you can do yourself. , Never covet what is not your own. Never think any matter so trifling as not to deserve notice. Never give out that which docs not first come in. Never spend but to produce. Let the greatest order regulate the transac tions of your life. Study in your course of life to do the greatest amount of good. Deprive yourself of nothing necessary to your comfort, but live in an honorable simplicity. Labor, then, to the moment of your existeuce. Pursue strictly the above rules, and the Divine blessings and riches of every kind will fiow upon you to your .heart's content ; but first of all remember that the chief and great du ty of your life shoulJ be to tend, by all means in your power, to the houor and glory of our Divine Creator. The conclusion to which I have arriv ed is, that with temperance there is no health ; without virtue no order; without religiou no happiness ; aud that the aim of our being is to live wisely, soberly, and righteously. New Orleans, March 9, ISO! The Roston Journal relates the follow ing incident, which may have an applica tion to persons further west : Not long since a gentleman who owns a country residence became dissatisfied and concluded that it was not the place that suited him at all. lie talked with his wife and she gradually arrived at the conclusion that the lawn was not what it should be, that the trees were not suf ficiently umbrageous, and that various details were wanting to make the place : acceptable. The couple having reached this unhappy frame of mind became daily more dissatisfied, and it was finally con cluded that the estate should be offered at private sale. After some delay the owner accidental ly met Mr. Samuel B. Walker, the well known auctioneer, and informed him of his intention, stipulating, however, that the advertisement should contain a full description of place. "You know," he continued, "that L don't want Tom. Dick and Ilarrv run ning down ' to inspect the place out of mere curiosity, and as my wife says she will not consent to a pblic auction, I pro pose to sell it at private sale." "I enderstand," said Mr. Walker. "I will announce it in such a way that, with out naming the locality, it will attract the attention of any one in waut of such a country seat, and then they can apply at my office." "That is exactly what I want," replied the gentleman, "and you had better drop down and dine with me, and look it over, so that you can give a good description." "No need of that," replied the auc tioneer, "for you forget I sold it to yoa and I described it then, and I never for get a place I have once seen ; of course 1 shall allude to its present condition." ."Certainly," replied the gentleman, and I leave it entirely in your hands though there is no immediate hurry, for I caunet give possessions at present." In the course of a few days the gentle man took up a newspaper and read the descriptiou of a place which Mr. Walker had advertised. It was iu the peculiar style or the auctioneer. After perusing it carefully and making note of the "gras sy slopes," the "splendid vista,', and the "conveniences which grace the residence of a gentleman of wealth and refinement,", he read it aloud to his wife. "That is just the place we want" the said. "My idea to a dot;" added the husband" "of what a place should be. I will call in at Mr. Walker's, and inquire about it this very day." "Mr. Walker received his visitor, and anticipating some congratulatory remarks, asked him to take a seat. "Mr. Walker," said the gentleman, "you have advertised in to-day's paper just the place I want." "Just the place you want to sell," ad ded Mr. Walker. "No, sir, the very place I want to pur chase," replied the geutleman. "Which oue do you mean inquired Mr. Walker, handing him a paper. "Why, this oue. to be sure ; dou't you suppose I read it ?" The auctioneer adjusted his spetacles and looked broad at his latest literary production. His spectacles fell from their place to the tip of his uose, and peering at his visitor, he burst into a laugh, ex claiming, "Why, my dear man, that is your place." "My place," exclaimed the astonished owner ; "my place : let's see. "Grassy slopes,' 'beautiful vistas,' 'couveniences of a gentleman of wealth " "Why. ves : havcu't you a charminrr view of the oeeau ? can t you look John McDonouch. The New York Times is responsible for the following : "Yerymany divorce suits are conducted in a manner so ex ceedingly confidential, that oncf the parties most interested is not informed of the proceedings at all, until astounded by the presentation of the decree. We are congnizant of a case wherein an estimable lady, innocent of all wrong, and ignorant of even auy dissatisfaction on the part of her husband, parted with him affection ately at the steamboat dock as she start ed on a journey to see some friends ; some hours after in the privacy of her state room, she found leisure to examine a paper her husband handed her at the last miuute, aud discovered it to be a copy of a decree of a divorce rendered by an Il linois judge. Before the steamboat had been six hours gone her late husband had married auother wotua-n." A few weeks ago a hotel keeper in Laucaster "smelled a mice" in this wise : Two countrymen took lodgings at his place, and sumptuously, drinking three bottles of wine daily. Tho last day, and before they had settled their bill, a dis pute arose about the speed of horses. They at last settled upon a race, aud ap pointed the landlord judge. Wheu tlfy Vere ready tho judge, like those of the Olympian games, gave the word one, two, three, ami go. Away they weut, aud have neither been seen uor heard of since. No doubt they aro running at this moment (a bill in some other place,) leav ing this landlord fully compensated by having had the honor of beiog jud-e. from the most ' queried yoar dining room window upon beautiful lawn you ever saw? Mr. Walker. "Well, so I do," added the surprised individual, and after a moment's hesita tion he said : "Just make out your your bill for advertising, for, by George, I wouldn't sell the place for three times, what I gate for it." Old Daddy Ramsey was a couscicntious man, fond of Ids Bible aud his bitters. He was summoued as a witness before our Couuty Court. On entering the ho tel ho stepped up to the bar, called for a littlo tanzy whisky, poured out a tumbler nearly full, and proceeded to get outside of it, which he did withentire success. The usual sixpeuce was laid on the coun ter iu paymeut. Landlord handed back three cents. "What!" said Ramsey, "don't yoa charge but three ceuts?" " Not where I sell at wholesale," .was. the reply. The old man shoved back tho change and said: " Well, if it's as cherp as that you take the three cents aud I'll take some more!" Excluxmje. Important Arrest. .
