THE MEHIIV SLEIGH.
BT LIEUT. rATTEX, U.S. X.
Jingle, jingle, clear the way,
, 'Tis tiie merry, merry sleigh,
As it swiftly scuds along,
Hesr tLe burst of happy song ;
See the gleam of glances bright,
Flashing o'er tbe pathway white ;
Jingle, jingle how it whirls,
Crowded full cf laughing girls.
Jingle, jingle fast it Cies,
Shooting shafts from roguish eyes ;
Careless archera I'll be bound,
Little heeding whom they wound ;
See them with capricious pranks,
Ploughing now the drifted banks,
Jingle, jingle mid the glee.
Who among them cares fur me ?
Jingls. jingle on they flow,
Caps and bonnets white with snow,
And the faces swimming past
Nodding through tho fleecy blast ;
Not a single robo they fold
To protect thorn from the cold.
Jingle, jingle 'mid tbo storm,
Fan and frvlic keeps tbcia wariu.
-
Jingle, jinglo down the bill,
O'er tho meadow., past the mill,
Now 'tis slow, now 'tis fait,
Winter will not always last;
Every plca5uro ha3 its time,
Spring will come and 6top tho cblzne.
Jinglo, jingle clear tho way,
, 'Tis the merry, merry sleigh.
Oxe or tiie Speeches. Job Ko';ick was
one of 'cm" cn tho stamp. A double bar
icllcd throat, and lungs as large as two bush
el baskets, enabled him to .electrify bis consti
tuents np to alighting point in less time thaa
it would take for a Susquehanna raft to go
over Niagara Falls. His great speech deliver
ed in Bob Stubb's ten acre lot, was a crusher.
For the sake of posterity ro give an extract :
"Feilow-Citizexs! You might jist as well
try to dry up the Atlantc ocean with a broom
straw, or draw this 'ere stamp from tinder my
feet with a harnessed gad-fly, as to convince
mo that I ain't gwino to bo eleceted this heat.
My opponet don't stand a chance not a sniff.
"Why he ain't ns intellectual as a common
sized shad. Fellers, I am a hull team with
two bull dogs under the warron and a tar buck
et I am. If therc'B anybody this side of v, bar
the tun begins to blister the earth that kin
wallop me, let bim show himself I'm ready.
Boy's I go ta for the American Eagle claws,
tars, stripes and all, and may I burst my evcr
lastin' button hole!, ef I don't knock down,
drag out, and gougo everybody as denies it.'
"Novr's the Time. This, wo were remin
ded the other day, is Leap Year, and if the
girls could induce congress, 01 the rerpeciivo
State Legislatures, to pass some such act as
the following, our.cted'by tha Scotch Parlia
ment '4in 12S3, specially for. Leap Year, they
might get many a bacLoler in a tight place.
Suppose they try :
"It isstatut andordaint that during therein
of her insist blissit ilegestie, Us. fourth year,
known as Leap Year, ilk maiden ladye of
baith high and low cstait shall baa liberty to

A YiiSiE Boast. A correspondent furn
ishes the following report ol a conversation
which took place in s tiers in Boston. He
says:
An innocent and pure minded Jonathan, in
a warm argument with a John Bull, on our na
tional institutions, was endeavoring to floor
his antagonist, who had sneeringly remarked
that fortunately the Americans couldn't go
further wcstwaid than the FaciCc shore.'
Yankee searched Lis pregnant braia for an in
stance, and triumphantly replied, 'why good
gracious, they're already leveling the Rocky
Mountains, and carting tho dirt out west; I Lai
a letter iroin my cousin last week who is liv
ing two hundred miles west of the rac:5c
hore on made ground.

Mutations op Matter. It is stated in an
interesting article, recently published in the
Scientific American, that,'with a very near ap
proximation to truth, the human family inhab
iting the earth has been estimated at 700,000,
000; the annual loss by death is 18,000,000.
Now the weight' of tho animal matter of this
immense body catt in tbe grave, is no less
than 921,000 tons, and by its decomposition
produces 9,000,000,000,000 cubic feet of gas
eous matter. The vegetable productions of
the earth clear away from the atmosphere thus
generated, decomposing and assimilating them
for their own increase. This cyclo of changes
has been going on ever since man became an
occupier of tho carth. IIo feeds on the lower
animals, and on the seeds of plants, which, iu
due time, become part of himself Tho low
animals feed upon tho hefbiand grasses, xrl'
in their turn, become the animal; then X" . ;
death, pass again into tho atmosphere, and t . ?
ready onco more to be assimilated by j!"tt,
tho earthy or body substance alone rcrrL"
where it ia deposited; and not even this, i
less suIEcieutly d.'cp in tbo soil to be out
tho absorbani reach of the roots of plants tt
trees. '-Nothing appears moro caniordizin.x j
to see a Cock of . fcheep grazing in a country
church-yard, knowing it to bo nn undeniablo
fact, that the grass they cat has been nurtured
by tao gaseous emanations from our immcdi
ato predecessors j then following p the fact
that'tbis said grass is actually assimilated by
the animal, and becomes mutton, whereof wo
may perhaps d'no neit week. 'Truth is stran
ger than fiction,' and here is a truth that ex
emplifies the provcib. It io not at all diC'cult
to prove that the elements of which tho living
bodies ol tho present generation are composed,
have all passed through millions of mutations,
and formed paits of all kinds of animal and
vegetable bodies, ia accord tnea with tic un
erring law of nature, and consequently, we
may say with truth, that fractions ot tho ele
ments of our ancestors form part of ourselves.

riIIE NEW-YORK TRIBUNE, 1834-6
X Ihk Tribune is now in the middl uf ita jr
teenth year; Vol. XV. of its weekly issu commen
ced on tho 1st of September last. Tho American
public need not now be made acquainted with it
character yr claims to consideration. ' With but a
subordinate regaid for prudenca, policy and pop.
ularity, it Las aimed to stand for Righeousneij.
for Truth, for Humanity, against fortified luioui!
ty, Fraud und Oppression. There is not a slave,
trader on this Continent, tho' he may never re4
anything but his bills cf sale and notes-paybie
who docs not know and hate the Tniuusr.; there is
not an extensive fabricator of drugged and poison
ous Liquors who does not consider it a very dan
gerous and immoral paper, and wonder why iu
iiublication is tolerated in & commercial, cotton
buying City like New-York. The Netcarl Mercu
ry once forcibly remarked that it Lad never known
a Lard, griping, screwing avaricious employer whd
w-as not hostile to the Tuiar.NE, nor one eminentlr
generous and kindly w ho d id not like it ! Prompt
and plain-spoken in its denunciations of iniquity
rtnd ubuses of power, whilst claiming no exemp
tion irom human fallibility, it may Lave done
temporary injustice to individuals, but it has cov
er been unfaithful to Principle, nor deaf to the
cries tho wronged and suffering. In its coluruci
the ad vocates of uovol aud unpopular theories cja
teniplating tho melioration of human woes, c"e-'
cially those of the voiceless and down-trodd'an
bare ever found uudicuce and hospitality ; while
it has already resisted, and will persistently coru
bat. every attempt toproseribo and degrade any,
th us hecuuso of diveisilies of Nativity, or Creed.
In defiance of calumnies the most atrocious. and
of boltilitics the most deadly and untrue, the Int.
bi sk has grown steadily in public appreciation
from tbe day of its origin. Its means of serving
tho public have been augmented in proportion.
lustead of a single editor with one or two assist
ants, its organization now comprises a lumorou
body of writers each fitted by special accoinplieh.
ment acd esperienco for the particular line of
discussion to which his pen is devoted ; the daily
amount of rending matter given more than quad
ruples that of its earliest issues ; a staff of valued
correspondents encircles tho globe, transmitting
early and intelligent narrations of whatever ia
mo.-t worthy of attention; whilo Folities, Legisla
tion, Literature, Art.. History in short, whatever
affects tho social well-being of mankind. Polemics
Theology alone excepted finds here the freest
and most searching disseussion.
Attached by profound conviction to tbo benili
ccnt policy of Industrial development and Intern
al Intercommunication whose most conspicuous
champion through the laat half-century was llr.j
n v Clay imbued, moreover, with the spirit of for
bearance towards our weaker neighbors, and tow
ard tho much wronged Aborigines of this Conti
nent and of Peace with All which will hallow the
name of Whig, the Tuiui ne, while surrendering
no jot of its proper independence co-operated ea
nestly and ardently with tho Whig party so lonj
as its vitality was preserved. When in 1S50-2 an
attempt was made to interpolate slave-hunting in
to its creed, we sternly resisted that imposition;
when, at tho close of "the last Preidntial can
yats, it was seen that a large portion of the Whigs
preferred to defeat their own party rather than,
allow its Anti-Slavery wing to share its triumph,
even under a conservative Chief on a Pro-Slavery
platform, we knew and proclaimed that the .Whig
party was no more. Subsequent events, including
the rise and calumniation of the Know Nothing
conspiracy, and tho speedy absorption therein of
the whole foreo of Pro-slavery Wbigism, only eon
firmed our undoubting anticipations. With no
sickl- lamentations, therefore, for the inevitably
bygone, but w ith hope, aDd joy, and sympathy,
and words of cheer, have we hailed the beginning
and watched tbo progress cf that mighty REPFB
LICAN movement w hich impelled ly the perfidi
ous violation of the Missouri Compact, and stimu
latod by tbe astounding outrages whereof the
rights of the Free Settlers of Kansas have been tho
victims by repeated aud utter vitiation of their
elections by an armed mob collected by conspiracy
and hurled suddenly upou them from the border
counties of tho neighboring Slure State, is destin
ed to sweep away tho landmarks of old party
feu Is. and unite the true hearts and strong arras
of tho free-souted in one mighty effort to confine
tho sjourge and scandal of our country within the
Iimilu of the Elates which unwisely uphold it. To
the success of this effort, the energies of the Tri
bune will be sternly devoted: while the TEMPER
ANCE REFORM, including tho entire suppression
of the trufic in intoxicating beverages, will find ieil,
as hitherto, an earnest and unflinching champion.
Commencing as a daily folio sheet of moderate
si;o, and with scardely a shadow of patronage, the
TniBPNE is row issued in quarto form Daily (Three
distinct editions), Senti-M etL'y, and WexV.y, on n
.sheet 44 by o l inches, eight ample pagss of six col
umns each. 'Its eircttlation has steadily grown
from nothing to the following aggregate:

: Wo believe no other newspaper in the world bus
a subscription list over half so large as this ; and
no periodical of any sort can rival it. And wbile
its extreme cheapness rendering an increase of
paying readers only as indirect pecuniary advant
age to us. has doubtless largely swelled it sub
scriptions li.it, it would bo absurdity not perceive
in this unprecedented patronage some evidence
of public approval and esteem.
TESHS: Tbe Tcisunb employs no traveling
agents and sends out no papers on trust. If it Is
not stopped when the term paid for expires, and
tho subscriber does uot choose further to pay for
it. we resort to no legal process to compel him. On
the Weekly, we mean to stop every paper on the'
expiration of the advance payment, awaiting
fresh remittance-from the subscriber. If noio
comes tho account is closed. We pay no local
agents wisn no money paid to any when the pay-'
or cannot trust him to mail or other wi.o a.-ndit to
us; onco mailed, its safety is at our risk, (and se
rious risk it often proves); but are grateful to CTe
ry one w ho deems it a good work to obtain and for
ward the names mid money of Lis friends and
