TIt Departure of Summer.
There is a lone in every gaie,
Which speaks of blossoms gone ;
Which seems to pour a lonely wail
O'er hope and beauty flown :
The ttees, the fields, which wore but now
The glory of the year,
Have lost the light and blosoming glow
They kept, when Spring was hero.
Yes, the pure radiance of the, sun
On them no more descends ;
The freshness of their birth is gone,
Like smiles of early friends ;
The blight is on the forest tops,
And on the waving corn,
Their richness passed, as fade the clouds
Of some gay summer morn.
Thus, looking at the-goltien Hours
That passed so sadly sdoif, '' .
Like dew from the huxurrant' flowers, "
That melts before the noon," u
I feel how fleeting are the joys
Thai human lile can give;
How every hope the heart employs
On earth, is fugitive.
All save that faith-enkindled hope, "
From virtue's fount that springs,
To lilt the undying spirit up,
As on the eagle's wings :
A hope sublime immortal pure
Jn Jove to mortals given
Traced in the Word of Promise sure,
Andjixed on God and Heaven.
How soon the dark, autumnal storm
O'er Rummer's sheen is borne !
The sad tree stands, a wasted form,

And bright till, rolling years
Sweep each younu; vision from the view,
And dun the eve withtears.
And still, an ever-restless tide
The stream of time sweeps onjj , t
Within, its bosom sink the pride,
And hopes and raptures gone ; ,
A troublous waste of-moving years, ,
Beneath whose depths go down 1
The peasant, with his joys and fears
The monarch with his ennvn.
The beauteous form the clinging love,.
That thought the world. its own ;
And deemed no earthly power .could move
Its hold from that alone ; ...
These, with their charms, are rent apart

Ambition finds its grave.

If in thy little span - ..7

Above the world of man !

And friend departs" from friend !

In the free ciiy of Frankforl-on-thc-Main, ihe
bodies of ihe dead are not kept for several days,
as with us, in the house of mourning, but are
promptly removed to a public cemeitiery. In
order to guard, however, against premature in
lermeru, the remains are always retained above
"round until the certain signs of deeomoosilion
are apparent ; and besides this precaution, in
cases of suspended animation, the lingers of

In the adjoining room reposed the death

Why is it there are so many female unmar

and all the qualifications requisite for the mar

reasonable man happy? Why is u they re-,
main year after year in a single stale ?. Surely

men enough to give all young women husbands,
lo support them well, and help them bring up
and ediicaie a family if they would set about

do u ? They are fearful of changing iheir
filiations, lest poverty come upon ihem, or
they be taken in by those, who are lull oi love

For the last two' weeks, L. B. Ward & Co.,
have been hammering out, at the Hammersley
Forge, at the foot of 59th street, .North River,
New York, the largest gun, as it is said, thai
we have any record of. It is fourteen feet
lonj!, ihreo feet in diameter at the breech, and
weighs thiriy thousand pounds, or two tons.
It is made for Government aitd will be placed
oh board the Princeton steainer. Capt, Stockton
now at Philadelphia. This extraordinary gun
is hammered out with a hammer weighing fif
teen ihousand pounds. The process of heating"
and hammering such an immense. shaft i won
derful. The machinery for placing the gun in
the furnace, ol pulling it on ihe anvil, of turn
ing, cutting and hammering, are so complete,
that it is moved-with a precision and facility
truly astonishing. Cast iron guns of this size,
and larger, aro frequently made but no attempt
we believe, has ever before been made to make
a gun of this size from wrought iron. It is
calculated that the strength and power of this
piece when finished, will carry a ball of one
third greater weight and one fourth increased
disiaiieo than the bcst'cast irbn guns.

Here. is " a crumb of comfort" for moihers
who have squalling children : Children's tears
are very innocent ihoy neither do hariuuor
good ; ihev are merely an outlet to peevishness,
which soon relieve them, and from the quanti
ty they sometimes shed, it might be supposed
they were in little danger of a collection of
water on the brain. And now L think of it,
this may be the reason why some are called
sap-heads ; but block-heads and dough-heads
do not yield tears plentifull)'. They retain
them in iheir heads, and become dolls.
