A correspondent is furnishing the Baltimore Dispatch with a scries of amusing poetical effu sions. The following is a good parody on the song " I would not die in Spring Time" and contains much of what Sam Slick call3 "human nature." I would not die in Spring time, i ... - vncn worms begin" to crawl"; r " When cabbage plants are shooting up, And frogs begin to squall : 'Tis then the girls arc full of charms, And smile upon thc men ; When lamb and peas arc in their prime I would not perish then. I would not die in Summer, When trees are filled with fruit And every sportsman has a gun, Thc little birds to shoot. The girls then wear their Bloomer dress, And half distract the men, It is thc time to sweat it out I would not perish then. I would not dio in Autumn, When new-mown hay smells sweet, And little pigs arc rooting round For something nice to cat. 'Tis then the huntsman's wild halloo, Is heard along the glen, And oysters 'gin to fatten up I would not perish then. I would not die in Winter For one might freeze to death ; When blustering Boreas sweeps around, And takes away one's breath. When sleigh bells jingle horses snort, And buckwheat cakes are tall ; In fact : this is a right good world, I would not die at all ! MISCELLANEOUS Singular IMiciiomciia. A curious incident occurred here (New-York) yesterday. You arc no doubt aware that for some months past a number of men have been engaged in recovering things from thc wreck of the British, frigate Iluzzar, which was lost at Ilcllgatc, in the East River, during thc revolu tionary war. The object is to get at a large sum of money which it is said was in that ves sel at the time of her loss. Various articles, such as bottles, cannon balls, bombshells, &c, have been brought to light. I had in my hand yesterday, a small bomb shell or hand grenade, which came from that vessel, and being anxious to know if thc pow der which was in it had retained its virtue, I broke it and emptied its contents on a news paper. It had an odor of burned gunpowder, and in a few minutes after it was exposed, it became warm ; soon it emitted a smoke, and at length it burned through the paper. Fearing an explosion I threw water on it. This is a curious fact, and worthy attention. TIic Empress Josephine's Dia monds. By thc death of the Duchess of Lcuchtenberg, who was a Bavarian Princess, and thc wife of Eugene Bcauharnois, thc son of thc Empress Josephine the jewels presented to Josephine by thc Emperor Napoleon, and which had since belonged to thc Duchess of Lcuchtenberg, now become the property of her son, thc Duke of Leucbteiilerg, whose wife is a Russian Impe rial Princess, so that poor Josephine's diamonds will in future sparkle on the person of a daugh ter of thc Russian Czar. I'arsoit Iirovi mow. The whig editors are fond of picking up thc sayings and doings of their friend Tarson Brownlow, of the Joncsboro' (Tcnn.,) Whig. Here is one of his sayings which they have not yet echoed : "Mr. Fillmore or Gen. Scott will be thc Whig candidato for the Presidency, in 1852, as all can now sec. Should Mr. Fillmore be thc can didate, wc will do battle in his cause to thc very best of our humble abilities; should Gen. Scott be thc candidate, tee will not support him undtr any circumstances whatever, having no confidence IS THE MAN." Tlic lcrlls of llic Ocean. The foreign correspondent of the Detroit Advertiser, who has returned to his native land, after a perilous passage across thc Atlan tic, thns describes the appalling dangers he encountered when on ship-board : "Although I am well satisfied and much gratified with my journey to the Old World, as it is generally termed, yc I cannot advise oth ers to encounter the ills, perplexities and haz ards, which arc unavoidable on a sca-voyagc of that nature, out of mere curiosity, for wc were frequently enveloped in such dark and impene trable fogs aud mists, that wc barely escaped a collision with two large vessels, also filled with emigrants, which, in consequence of head winds, were standing on a different tack from us, and did not discover each other until they had ap proached within a few yards." J&31" A lady appeared in Eloonur roitume at Fairmount, Va., lrut week. General Iopcz. t AN INCIDENT IN HIS LIFE. Sime of the zealots in the Cuban cause are enOouvoring to magnify General Lopez into an extraordinary hero." He is no doubt a brave ingj, but judging from his history thus far, he g .iy.Jij MriUaani discreet. Thc Savannah iSews one of his warmest admirers, relates quite a thrilling incident in his history : " It is stated that during thc celebrated Car list war in .Spain, General Lopez and about seven hundred others wcro taken prisoners and carried to Cantavieja, a fortification among the mountains of Arragon. The Governor of thc castle was said to have been a heartless wretch, revelling in bloody massacres and delighting in acts of torture. During thc dreadful confine ment of these prisoners, thc royal army com manded by General San Miguel marched to Cantavieja, for thc purpose of raising thc siege. Thc place was defended admirably by nature, in a narrow defile of thc mountains ; but thc Spanish General, undismayed by thc apparent impregnability of thc fortress, continued to bc Eicgo it, until evidences of his 6ucccss were soon discovered by his enemies. Thc Governor there upon resolved upon a scheme which could only have entered thc mind of a tyrant in whose eyes thc sight of blood was a gratification. lie determined to put all thc prisoners to death, from General Lopez down, and requested thc General to notify San Miguel of his intention, hoping by this threat to stop thc siege. Lopez announced this bloody resolution in his letter, but requested General San Miguel not to allow this threat to interfere with thc prosecution of thc siege. Thc Governor, finding that the let ter produced no effect, and that thc works were rapidly advancing to consummation, announced to his prisoners that he had ordered their exe cution ; but that he would allow Lopez to go to San Miguel in person, and explain thc circum stances in which they were placed, first recei ving his word of honor to iturn after delivering thc message. Lopez was soon in thc midst of San Miguel's tfoops, who hailed his appearance with great demonstrations of joy. He explained the threat of the Governor, discussed the plans for thc siege, gave nil thc information he possessed as to thc weakest points of thc fortification, and then rose up to return to his fate. San Miguel objected ; the army loudly opposed his going from their midst to be put to death by thc bru tal Governor; but thc noble Lopez overcame all their entreaties, and surrounded by his sorrow ing but admiring friends, he bade them all a kind farewell, wishing them success, even though he himself might be thc sacrifice ! The siege proceeded vigorously, for San Miguel knew that he could only save Lopez and thc other prison ers by accomplishing his purposes with as much speed as his means would allow. Thc Governor and those defending thc castle had no time left to put their prisoners to death, as they were kept in constant occupation with the work of resistance and defence. The town was soon taken. The Governor and the garri son were dismayed ; but Lopez, thc patriot and thc hero, with his gallant band, were saved. Death of an Aged Indian. Old Bccktootii, a very aged Indian, expired a few days since at his residence, a short dis tance below thc mouth of the Little Valley Creek, in Cattaraugus county. He was thc last, with thc exception of Gov. Blacksnakc, of thc aged Indians who have lingered so long in the land of thc living. One by one, like our own fathers of thc Revolution, have thc Indian chieftains passed away, and soon the last will be on his way to thc " spirit land." Thc following notice of Bucktooth, from the pen of lion. S. A. Brown, recently appeared in thc Jamestown Journal: "A few months ago, when returning from a railroad meeting at Olean, curiosity induced us to travel out of the way a mile on foot, to sec an aged Indian by the name of Bucktooth, said to be 120 years old. His wigwam stood on thc banks of thc Allegheny. An abundant supply of corn, curiously fastened together by thc husks, Euspcnded over poles, with bark placed over it as a security against thc weather, decked the inclosurc around thc dwelling ; and within, on a long, low bench, placed against thc wall, on which was a mat, which was his scat by day and couch by night, eat thc livingrclic of by gone years. During our stay he arose from his scat, and stood as erect as a youth of twenty. Mcthought, as I gazed on this aged man, thy health has not been impaired, nor thy physical powers prematurely wasted, by means of thc luxuries which civilization bring3. A Candidates Withdrawal. A candidate for thc office of Coroner, in Lou isville, gives thc following good reason for withdrawing: In fact disappointments nave followed mo upon every hand. I had expected the assistance of a fellow to occasionally knock an individual in the head and tumble him into thc canal, but he turned virtuous, joined a cir cus company, and left these diggins. I could not get along without him and I mutt decline, and that positive JIUGE LEWISi TESTIMONY OF HIS WHIG OPPONENTS. The following, from the last "Union and Tri bune," of Lancaster, is a just aad honorable tribute to the worth of Judge Lewis. When wc consider that the Grand Jury of Lancaster county, drawn at random from thc wheel, must of necessity ue largely uuig, aau mcrpjp" which it is published and commented upon, is a leading Whig journal, it must be inferred, that thc Judge occupies a position among his neigh bors of a high and commanding character. If there was thc slightest truth in thc numerous slanders of thc scurrilous Whig prints, this tes timony to thc worth of Judge Lewis never could have been extorted from political opponents. Read, ponder, and reflect upon it, all ye who arc doubters, and you cannot fail to be satisfied that Judge Lewis is pre-eminently fitted for thc position of Judge of thc Supreme Court: Judge Eevis. The Grand Jury, in their report, presented to thc Court on Saturday last, allude to Judges Lewis, Grosh and Shteffer, in the following terms: "Thc Grand Jurors in closing their report avail themselves of thc occasion to tender to his Honor, Judge Lewis, and to his associates, Judges Grosh and Shacffcr, their respectful ac knowledgements for the faithful and efficient manner in which they havc discharged their official duties during their administration, now about closing by virtue of thc adopted amend ment to thc Constitution." In answer, Judge Lewis, on behalf of thc Court, returned thanks to thc Grand Jury for thc kind and complimentary terms in which they had been pleased to refer to his associates and himself, and proceeded to state that his connection with our Courts as Presiding Judge would cease with the present term. Judge Lewis has presided over the Courts of Lancaster county for a number of years, and now that his connection with thc Bench of this Judicial district is about to cease, it is but just to bear testimony to thc great ability, energy and integrity which have characterized his ad ministration of thc Judicial affairs of this large and populous county. The reputation enjoyed by our preceding Judges Franklin, Hayes, Champneys, &c, was such as to preclude any one of their successors from meeting the expec tations of the bar and the people except he were possessed of high intellectual and moral quali ties. In thc fact that Judge Lewis fully an swered such expectations and enjoys a reputa tion .surpassed by none of the Judges who pre ceded him, consists - his chief praise. Thc promptness with which he despatched business was such as to justify thc Legislature in dis pensing with thc Mayor's and the District Court -thus saving thc county a considerable eum annually. Judge Lewis, as our readers arc well aware, is now a candidate on thc " Democratic " ticket, for Judge of thc Supreme Court, in opposition to the Whig nominees as able and upright men as were ever placed in nomination for office. It is enough for Whigs to know that Judge Lewis is politically opposed to them, and that their own nominees are worthy their warm sup port. Wc have recently seen in the papers one or two articles personally and violently abusive of Judge Lewis representing his character and acts in terms which none who know him can be induced to credit. Thc publication of these at tacks is to bo regretted, inasmuch as they arc calculated to do thc Judge good and our ticket harm. They are, we know, deprecated on that ground; by intelligent and respectable Whigs. The Locofoco papers arc using thc same weapons against Judge Jcssup and, as the result will prove, using them to his advantage. For our own part, wc shall exert all our ener gies to insure thc success of the whole Whig ticket, but, in so doing, we prefer to confine ourselves to legitimate political warfare, be lieving such course to be best calculated to ad vance the interests of our party. Revolution in Italy. There is a general im pression, among the observant minds in Europe, that Italy is again on thc eve of a violent and sanguinary revolution. Almost every foreign newspaper that wc read every one which dares to intimate its opinions is full of forebodings as to some great trouble at hand. Even the conservative papers of London and Tari3 do not suppress their fears, and thc silent military preparations of Austria show that thc Govern ments arc not unaware of what is in thc wind. American travellers, recently returned from Europe, with whom the editor of the New YorkN Post has conversed, bring with them thc same conviction. Accounts by thc Asia state that if Turkey per sists in setting Kossuth at liberty on the 1st of September, Austria will declare war, anil with thc powerful aid of Russia, overrun Turkey and blockade Constantinople. Thc American frigate Independence and thc steamer Missouri were expected at Constantinople for Kossuth. A let ter adds: Thc United States appear to be on the watch for thc opportunity of taking a promi nent L-h:ue in the .i1ir cf the world. From Our Exchanges.

Sinco the adoption of the Tomboy costume by the ladies, thc tails of gentlemen's coaU arc growing smaller and beautifully less. By and by wc presume the men will be left without any tails at all. Ladies should remember that a small piece of linen, just moistened with turpentine, and put into the wardrobe or drawers for a ringlc dav, two or three times a year, is a sufficient preser vation against moths. What more precious offering can be laid upon thc altar of a man's heart than the first love of a pure, earnest and affectionate girl, with nu undivided interest in eight corner lots, and fourteen three story buildings. A young man, who wished to inform a la ly that decayed eggs had once been thrown at him by the boys, said that a "shower of eggs which had disappointed the hopes of a fruitful incuba tion fell in fearful proximity to his persou." Eyjs actly! Wc regret to learn, says, thc Bedford (Va.) Sentinel, that a little boy by the name of Luster, in attempting, the other day, to cut his name on the Natural Bridge higher than any ether, lost his footing, and fell a distance of 50 feet, lie was almost instantly killed. r Oeigin of tue Bloomer Costume. A country editor whose paper did not receive a sufficient amount of patronage to enable himTto " go tho whole figure," told his wife that a half drcs3 was much prettier than a whole one. She, poor simple soul believed Lim." Hence their adoption. Women have a much nicer sense of thc beau tiful than men. They are by far thc safer um pires in thc matters of propriety and grace. A mere school girl will be thinking or writing about thc beauty of birds and flowers while her brother is robbing the nest and destroying thc flowers. Wc believe, (says thc Gcrmantown Telegraph) that it is thc concurrent opinion of all farmers who have given it a fair trial, that the system of drilling in wheat, instead of sowing it as has heretofore been done, is a saving of seed and labor, and produces at least five bushels per acre more. The decease of the celebrated poet Thomas Moore, may be daily expected. The last ac counts state "there is no improvement in his health, and, as in thc case of Sontbcy, his mind is beyond the repair of medicine or of time." He has for many years resided at Sloperton Cot tage, near Chippenham, in Wiltshire. The Capitol City Fact "states that Mr. G. A. B. Lazell, a printer in that office,' at Columbus, Ohio, has, by the recent discovery of a will made some forty years ago, become entitled to the fee, after a life estate, in landed estates in Ohio and Massachusetts, worth cqnal to $75,000 to $100,000.
