He stood alimo at that shadowy horir, l!y tho swinginrr lamp dimly burning ; All silent wilhiu, save the ticking type, All without sava tho night-walch turniug; And heavily echoed tho solemn sound, As slowly he paced o'er tho frozen ground. And dark were iho mansions so lately that shono With the joy of festivity gleaming, And hearts that were beatinir in svmnatliv then, Were now living it o'er in their dreaming ; Yet the Printer still worked at his lonely post, As slowly ho gathered his mighty host. And there lay the merchant all pillowed in down, And building bright hopes for the morrow, Nor dream'd he that fate was then weaving a wand That should bring him to fear and sorrow ; Yet the Printer was there in his shadowy room And he set in frame-work that rich man's doom. The young wife was sleeping, whom lately hath bound Tho ties that death only can sever; And dreaming, she started, yet woke with a smile, For she thought they had parted fovever ! But tho Printer was clicking the typo that would tell On the morrow the truth of th:it midnight spell. And there lay tho statesman whose feverish brow An. I restlo.., pillow was pressing, l'or Ik- felt thro' tha shadowy mists of hU dream Ihe lottiest hopes now possessing; Yet tho Printer worked on mid silence and gloom, And du for ambition its lowliest tomb. And slowly llmt workman went gathering up His budget of grief and gladness; A wreath for the noble, a grave for tho low, For the happy a full cup of sadness ; Strange stories of wonder to enchant tho ear, And dark ones of terror to curdlo with fear. Full strange aro the tales which lhat dark host bear To palace and cot on the morrow, Oh, welcome, thrice welcome, to many a heart ! To many, a bearer of sorrow ; It shall go like the wild and wandering air, For life aud its changes are impressed there. ETHAN SI'IKES FIRST AND LAST VISIT TO PORTLAND. "Portland is all tha darndest places I ever seed. I was down there in '33, to see little about mv goin' to tho Legislator, and such a rum time as I hud, you uver heer'd tell on. Did I ever tell you about the ice cream scrape I had !" We answered in the negative, and he re sumed "Wall, I'd been down thar two or three days, pole in' in every hole an' tho't I'd seed every thinj there was to be seen. Hut one day towards sun down 1 was going by a shop in Middle street that looked wonde r ful slick there war all manner of candv, and peppermints an' what nots at the win dows. An' then thar war siarns with ''old letters on to them, hangin' round the door, teliiti' how they sold Soda, Mead, an' Ice cream thar. I says to myself, I havehecrn a good deal about this 'ere ice cream an' now I'll be darned If I don't be darned if I won't see what thoy's made of. S , f puts mv hands in my pockets and walked in kinder careless an' says to a chap standing behind the counter : "Do you keep any ice creams here f" "Yes', sir," says he, "how much will you have ?" 1 considered a ininit on't, says I "a pint sir." The young feller's lace swelled out, an' he liked to have laughed right out, but arter a while he asked "Did you say a pint sir V "Sartin,', says 1, "but p'reps you don't retail, so I don't mind taking a quart." "Wall, don't you think the feller snorted right out. Tell yer what, it "made me feel sort o' poison, an' I give him a look that made hiir. look sober in about a mi nit, an when I clinched my fist and looked so at him, (here Mr. Spike favored us with a most diabolical expression) he hauled in his horns about the quickest, an' handed me a pint of the stuff as perlite as could be. Wall, I tasted a mouthful of it, an' found it as cool, as the north side o' Bethel hill in January. I'd half a mind to spit it out, but jest then I seed the confectioner chap grinning behind the door, which riz my snunk. Gall smash it all, thinks I, I'll not let that white livered monkey think I'm uleared I'll eat the darned stufTif U freezes my inards. I tell yer what, I'd rather skinned a bear or whipped a wild cat, but ive:,tit. I eat the wnolo in about a ly.init. "Wall, in about a quarter of an hour I began to feel kinder gripy about here," continued Ethan, pointing to the lower parts of his stomach, "an' kept on feelin' no better very fast, till at last it seemed as though I'd got a steam engin saw in' shin gles in me. I sot down on a' chair and bent myself up like a nut-cracker, thinkin' I'd grin and bear it ; but, but I couldn't set Mill I twisted and snuirmed about like an angle worm, upon a hook, till at last the chap as gin me the cream who had been look in.' on shickerin' says to me.s "Mister," say l he, "what ails yer V : "Ails me!" y I, "that" er darned stuff of yourn is freezin up my inards," says I. vm,a,wiurr, jorainB, jromiw an Bomestfc iictok jfc- . -H; x' -i jj 1 H . SUN BURY, NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY PA., gATRDAI "You cat too much," says hei "I tell yer 1 didn't," screamed I, "I know what's anuf an' weal's too much without askin' you, an' if you don't leave off snickerin' I'll spile your lace. He cottened risht down and said he didn't mean any hurt, and asked me if I hadn't better take some gin. I told him 1 would. So I took a purty good horn and lelt the shop, "Arter 1 got out," continued Ethan, "I felt hettjf for a minute or so, but I hadn't gone lar afore tho gripes took me again, so 1 went into another shop an' took some more gin, then I set down on the State House steps and there 1 sot and sot, but didn't leel a darned mite better. 1 begun to think I was goiti' to kick the bucket and then I thought of father and mother an' old Spanker that's father's hoss and when I thought that I should never see 'em again, 1 fairly blubbered. But then I happened to look up and see a dozen boys grinnin' and laughin' at me, I tell yer what it riz my dander that had got down below nero rite up again. I sprung at 'em like a wild cat, hollerin' out I'd shake their tarnal gizzards out out, and the way the little devils scampered was a caution to nobody. But after the citement of the race was over, 1 felt wuz again, and I couldn't help a groanin' and screechin' as 1 went along. At last I thought I'd go to the theatre, but afore I got there the gripes got so strong that I had to go behind a meetin' house and holler. Arler a while I got up and went into a shop an' cat half dollar's worth of biled isters with four pickled cucumbers, and wound up with a glass of brandy. Then I went into the theatre an' seed the nlavs, bul I felt so tarnally that I couldn't see any fun in 'em, for I don't think the isters and cucumbers dun me any good. I sot down, laitl down, and stood up, but still it went on gripe, gripe. I groaned all the tune, an' once in a while I was obliged to screech kinder easy. Every body stared at me an' somebody called out "turn him out !" once or twice. But at last jiut as the nig ger Othello was going to put the pillar on his wife's face to smother her, there came such a twinge through me that I really thought I was burstin' up, an' I yelled out "Oh dear! Oh scissors!" so loud that the old theatre rung again. Such a row you never seed ; the nigger dropped the piller, and Deuteronomy or what you call her there his wife, jumped off the bed and run, while every body in the theatre was all up in a mus-i, some larfing, some swear in': The upshot of it was the perlice car ried me out of the theatre and told me ,to make myself scarce. Wall, as I didn't feel any better I went to a shop close by, an' called for two glas ses of brandy ; arter swallerin' it, I went hum to the tavern. I sot down by the winder and tried to think I felt better, but t'was no go ; that blessed old imagine was still wallowin' away inside; sol went out an' eat a quarter's worth of isters an' a piece of mince pie. Then I went back an' ioid the tavern keeper . I felt kinder sick, and thought I'd take some Caster ile, n mouthful of cold meat and a strong glass of whiskey punch, and then go to bed. He got the fixins, which I took and went to bed. But, tell yer what, I had rather a poor night. Sometimes I was awake groanin' an' when I was asleep I'd better bin awake, for 1 had such powerful dreams. Some times I was skiimin' a bear, and then by some liocusjvicus 'twould change t'other side to, nn' the tarnal critter would be a skinnin' me. Tlu-n again, I'd dream that I was rolliu' logs with the boys, a jest as I'd be a shout in' out "now then! hero she goes?" everything would get reversed again I was a log, and the boys were prying me with their handspikes. Then I'd wake up an' screek an' roar then off to sleep a'ain to dream that Spanker had run away with me, or that father was whopping me or some other plnggy thing till mornin'. When I got up I hadn't any appetite for breakfast, and tho tavern keeper told fne that if I was goin' to carry on screaming and groaning as I had the flight afore, my room was better than my company. "I hain't," said Mr. Spike in conclusion, "I hain't bin to Portland since, but if I live to be as old as Methusalem, I shall never forget lhat all-fired Ice Cream. Bloated Cattle. A friend of ouro, who, by the way, is a, person of much observation, and who withal, has had consideiable expe rience, lately in the management of neat cat tle, informs us lhat last August he noticed one of his cattle much bloated, evidently in great agony, aud groaning loudiy at every breath. His first movement was to cut off small portion of her tail. Ho then adminis tered a strong doso of tl'.oroughwuit, with a small cpiantity of t" nsy, which immediately started tho w.-mJ ; a ieooud bottle was then poured, down, uud the animal turned into the yard, aud driven briskly about for a few. miuntes, when the bloat wholly disnppered, uud tho uiiimal was in u short time u woll and hourly us ever. This is a very simple remedy, and wo Imvo frequently heard others usaeit, generally, if not ulways, au efficient one. Maine Farmer.'. Amiikrst Coilkuk bas . received a dona tion from Hon.

Gavan D;il!V, at the Com mission, before Justice Toneas, has been concluded, but tho iurv hns not returned a verdict.

Al 1 lie conclusion of the trial of Charles (nivaii Dnliy at Commis sion to-day, Justice Torrens addressed the Grand Jury in reference to the indictment a gainst Duffy, but the jury had noj returned their liudiug previous to post hour. i he state of the country presents a most deplorable picture through the failure of tho potato crop, tho want of employment, the meagre grain crop, and tho disposi tion d the. people to make off with the produce of the land regardless of the pay ment of any taxes er rent. The Meath Her ald says that the spirit of emigration was ne ver more ripe during the Spring of the year, than is now felt, although we are on the brink of winter. THE CONVICTS AT l l.OXMKI..

Tho new ministry of Cavaiguac has alrea dy sustained a signal defeat. Upon nn a memlment to the Constitution offered by it, for tho puipnso of abolishing the privilege of purchasing substitutes for the nnny, the As sembly defeated the Ministry by a majority of 523. The discussion on the Constitution tormiuutud on the evening of lite 22d Tho domestic news in tho Paris journals is notot great interest. There appears to bo a strong feeling iu the organs of the moderate party against the proposed prorogation of the National Assembly, under the dread of agita tion and excitement if that body should sepa rate. Some of Ihe Paris papers seem to think frem the Inst accounts from tho provinces that the election of Louis Napoleon, ns Presi dent of tho Council, is not so certain ns was nt lirst supposed. Iu Normnndv. says one journal, the peasantry aro disposed in favor of Gen. Cavaiguac, and another journal tells us that M. Rurryer intends to become a can didate for the Presidency, in which case, al though M. Borryer has not the slightes chance of being elivted, he will abstract an enor mous number of votes in llm departments 0f the South which would olheiwise be giveu to Louis Napoleon. The declaration of M. Diif.uue in the Na tional Assembly, that there is at present very little to be feared from the deuincuitic and social banquets then; having been only 1100 persons nt the last, au that only bvs 'lling the tickets. it reduced prices, although COOO had been expected has triven great satisfaction to tho friends of order. A great deal of siirpiise was manifested u pou the decision of the Chamber lliut iho election of President should take place on tho IOih of December. It had been generally supposed that the election would be postpon ed until February. One party was iu favor of establishing the organic laws in reference to the resjwnisibility of ministers, the appoint ment and functions of judges, tho elections, &c, previous to tho election of President ; while another would rather leave those sub jects to be settled -under the new govern ment. Tho ministers of the Interior and of Justice have addressed a circular to the Prefects nnd Prooureurg-Qeneraux, in reference to tho ile mociatic. banquets. The banquets are not to be prohibited, but government functionaries are forbidden to attend them.' At the sittingof the Assembly on tho 2Glh Prince Louis Napoleon ascended the tribune, and read from a juiper in reply to tho accu sation brought against him in Ihe.previons sit ting by M Clement Thomas. M. Thomas had charged Prince Lotus with aiming at Iho imperial dignity. lie at once admitted tlmt he w as a candidate for the office of President of tho Republic. Ho declared that it was his right to be so, aud he would not renounce llmt right, whatever provocations were addressed to hi. ii. This declaration was listened to by the Assembly, with chilling silence. M. Goudcliaux has resigned the post of Minister of Finance, and M. Trouve t'liauvel is appointed iu his stead. Tin- resignation of M. Goudcliaux is attributed to the dillic ulties of his position on account of the poverty of the treasury, rather than to any oilier cause. Tho tour of Lamaitiue in the provinces has been generally conceded as undertaken with a view to his b .coming a candidate for the Presidency. Tho ultra, democrats of all shades aro mak ing ii desperate eli'oit lo produce a, unanimi ty among their partisans as to iho candidate- ship for tho Presidency. The friends of'M. Led iu Rollin. AUSTRIA. Tho Vieir.m journals of tho 20th, contain nothing new relative to tho position of the ci- but travellers arriving at Breslau from Vienna, Prsth, and Ohnutz say, that Vienna is completely environed by tho Imperial troops, and t tint the note of the emperor or Russia, of which mention has been made, is ascertained to be a fact. The Viennois are much discouraged. Tho proclamation by which Wiudisgraeiz if created c immander- iu-chief, and ordered lo avenge iho death of General Lnlour, has produced a mournful im press irm. A telegraph despatch addressed by Prince Windischgrutz to tho Mujor-Gcnciiil Prerou orders him to treat the National Guards in tho snmo manner as thtise of Bielit, tho officers to be sent to Ohnut, uud Iho soldiers dis armed and sent to their homes. The Cologne Gazette,' under date Oct. 21, 10 A M., says the 1'ihice Wiudeschgrutz has taken possession f the island of Lobau, w ith 2lid) men ProvUioiiH aro becoming very soaioo in Vienna. The Comniaiider-iil-C'hicf announced iu tho Communal Council, that ho was now able to protect iho w hole extent of the city with tho men at his disposition, on. less ho w as allowed to luko the offensive iu case of need. Neither tho Council nor the Diet would undertake the responsibility of authorizing such a proceeding. ' Iu the evening -sitting ol the ISth, of Ihe Diet of Vienna. M. Schneider announced that tho National Guard of Bielitz, which had set out tinder the orders of its commandant Prince Sulkowsky, to assist Vienna had been made prisoners aud disarmed lay the troops. M.

Another address was voted lo the, Emperor, nnd u committee was chosen to draw up a procla mation to tho people. Wo have received intelligence from Vienna by extraordinary express, via Berlin. This news reached Berlin on the 23.1 October. No essential change has laken place in ihe state of the cily. There is a superficial calm, and although i,K1y f;lmii,.s ,. nJM.t and great uncertainty prevails respecting the impending fate of tho cily, lwta js increas ing confidence in mercantile iillai'is. Mes- senhuuser, the commander-in-chief of the National Guards, has issued s everal nroclama- tions, staling the progress of the armaments, ihe continued hopes of an amicable arrange ment, nnd an entreaty that the inhabitants will preserve tho pence. Auersperg, also, commander of ihe Inipe rial troops, has addressed a proclamation to the people of Austiia and Syria, iu which he refers the present disastrous slate of things to tho restless intrigues of a faction, and earn estly exhoi ts them to remain true to their emperor and to the law. PRUSSIA. Intelligence has been received t'loiu Berlin lo the 23.1. On the 23d tho L'eosin question was debated in the Assembly, and was de cided, after a stormy discussion, in favor of tlie non-s!paration of tho Grand Duchy into; a Polish and a German, part and consentient- i ly in favor of its non-aunextiou to th.v G i'i- man Confederal ion, by a majority of 7. The coininanderof the IiurtdeT Guard has issued another proclamation, in which In states lli.it he entertains n tirm confidence that a iceoneiliatiou between the Bmuher Guard and the workmen will be effected soon, ami that he trusts no furtlioili.v.iiihimces. of mdi- lir. .,;., .. :it ...!-,. ,.i ti. . ..i 'l" 1 j'.a. i. in- il'liUUIllMOU addressed to the workmen in this liroc'ama tion is very wanr ly expressed, and shows' Ilia', nevertheless, strong uppreh'-iisious are entertained that another collision b'-tween i iho Burgher Guard and the workmen might , ensue. Those apprehension are by no means ; unfounded, and it is considered that much excitement still prevails among t!i work- ' men. ' ITALY. Tcron. The Chamber of Deoaii-s :U Te- i rin, decided on the 21st iu favor of a motion j for iho prolongation of the ;:rmis'ico with Austria.
