And Men go down in ships to the seas,

And backward and forward blows the breeze,
' And what is it all, when all is done ?
A lide,with never, a shore in sight,

—.And a hundred streams are the same as one
And a maiden dreameth her lore-lit dream;
And what is it all, when all is done ? •
The net of the fisher the burden breaks,
And after dreaming, the dreamer wakes.
How it Feels to be Blown up.

Most of our readers will doubtless tic
member.the explpsion of the steamer
.Magnelia,on., the Ohio river, some ten
miles above. Cincinnati,•in March last.
,Mention- was made at the time of the
supposed fatal injuries received by
Charles - B. Lewis, 4-" Em Quad "), ex
'Wed - editor of 'the 'Lansing Democrat,
who Wason his way to accept a situa
tion on the Maysville, (Ky.) Bulletin.
Being now, after a lapse of more' than
three months, partially able to resume
his dnties z he thus writes up an account
-of hia'Accident for r:the Jacksonian:
• "When I bought my ticket I asked
the clerk - if the Magnolia was consider
ed a safe - boat. He looked at me with a
half-sneering, half-pitying • expression,
and replied by inquiring if I had tray
*led'much. '• - •
-- 4 " Well,- no—not above the average.'
. • " Then you'll learn something- .by
and-by/ he continued.
"I did. Was seated in the - cabin, be
tween an ex-Colonel of a Georgia regi
ment' And' a Cincinnati pork dealer,
and were all talking over the impeach
ment matter. MS , fellow passengers
soon became heated and angry. They
Were cursing Congress and the Presi
•dent across my head—each one as he
felt—anal was looking for a muss,—
Their angry talk soon collectedA crowd.
I had just got up from my chair to keep
clear , of the' coming fracas, when I
heard a yell of agony, and before you
' could have counted three, up through
the cabin, and almost under our feet, •
came a huge. jagged mass of Iron.
' "For an instant thereaftir I was con
scious of everything goin on. I saw
the cabin rooflifted up, heard the angry
hiss of steam, the cu.shing of timbers,
and a cry from the injured and fright•
eued passengers that will toyer be for
gotten. Then I was lifted front my feet;
I felt an intense pain in the habit of m 3
head, and a biting sensation Over tr*
entire body. Sixteen days afterward ,
I awoke in the COM in email hospital at
Cincinnati. I knew that t wits
hurt, but could not remember 'how of
._when I was injured.
" As I afterw Irds ascertained, I was
blown out of the cabin into the river.
W hen the explosion occurred, the'steam
er was ;just rod - tiding the bend above
California, hugging pretty Close to the
Ohio shore to avoid the heavy current.
I must have taken a jump of at least
two hundred feet, as I was picked up
close to the shore. The survivors were
conveyed down to the city on a tug; and
here comes the only joke I eau discover
, in the whole affair.
"From some cause or other, my face
was turned to as deep a black as negro
ever wore, and I was! accordingly treat
ed as one. A dead cart was sent down
from the hoSpital, and side by side with
two wounded darkeys, lying on a mat
tress, I was carried up. The mistake
was not discovered until the surgeons
commenced shaving the hair off to get
at my broken skull. I was supposed,
for the first two days, to be a deck-hand,
but the telegram .from my wife to the
editor of the Enquirer, who came and
bunted me Up, soon set the matter right.
." On awakening in the hospital, 1
inquired • how badly was hurt. The
only answer I receiVed was to keep
still.' Considering that I could move
neither hand or foot, I regarded this ad
vice as entirely thrown away. 'But it
did not take me long to find ou that,
first, there was an uncomfortable air
hole' in the back of my head; second;
the sight entirely gone from the left
optic and the skin peeled off my face
and ears ; third that I had been 'steam
ed,' or rather cooked, from head to heels,
including both arms ; and lastly that
the doctors had just pulled me through
a severe attack of pneumonia. Remain
ed in the hospital twenty-nine days,
and then concluded to go home. Had
not yet been able to leave my bed, but,
- accompanied by my brother-in-law, C.
.Ifl. Rullson, Esq., who had nursed me
from the third day, I made the journey.
' " Getting home—my friends had been
looking to see me come in a coffin—my
wounds bad all filled up with proud
flesh.' This, of course, had to be burned
out; driving me crazy for a night and a
day, and compelling • memo use a solu
tion of blue'vitriol twice a day for forty
days. So you can form a slight idea of
the pain and suffering, and how much
• ye local' Can endure without becom
ing ' dead matter.'
" Now, after a lapse of almost one
hundred days, I find myself once more
about, but condemned to wear the sav
age marks of the steam-fiend to my
grave: A bald spot where the iron mis
sile crushed my skull, a ' piebald eye,
nface that resembles 4 beet, and over
my arms, body and limbs are scars that
resemble great slices of fresh beef laid
upon the skin. But after all, lam yet
alive and getting ready to once more
pursue the itemizing business,'
_which
you know is vastly better than being
fished out of the Ohio some torpid day,
with l no Coroner handy for an nquest."
NOSE BLEED.—There are two little
arteries which supply the -whole - face
with blood, one on each side ; these
branch off' from the main arteries on
each side of the w ndpipe and running
upward toward the eyes, pass over the
butside of the jaw-bone, about two
thirds of the way . back from the chin to
the angle of the jaw, under the ear.—
Each of these articles, of course, sup
plies just one-half the face, the nose be
ing the dividin line, the left nostril is
supplied with blood by the left artery
and the right nostril by the right ar
. tery. .Nov, supposing your nose bleeds
from the
-right nostril : with the end of
the right fore finger feel al ng the outer
edge of the right'jaw until you feel the
beating of the artery directly under
your finger, the same as the pulse in
your wrist, then press the finger har t
upon it, thus getting the little fellow
-in a tight place between your finger
and the jaw bone ; the result will be
that not a drop of bloodtgoes into that
Bide of your face while the pressure con
tinnea ; hence the nose instantly stops
bleeding for want of blood to flow ;
continue the pressure for five or ten
minutes and the ruptured vessels in the
nose will by that time probably con
tract so that when you let the blood in
to them they will not leak. Bleeding
from a cut or wound anywhere about
the face may he stopped in the same
way. The Creator pro ably placed
the-le arteries as they, are that they
might be controlled. Those to the back
of the head, arms, and legs are all ar
ranged very eon ven len tly for being con
trolled in like manner.
- -CrtoosE WELL.—The line of conduct
Chosen by a young man during the five
years from fifteen to twenty, will, in al
most every instance , determine his
character for life. As he is then care
,? ful or careless, prudent or i prudent,
dis
simulating. intelligent or ign rant, tem . -
porate or db3solute, so will he be in af
ter years ;:: and it needs no prophet to
cast his horoscope, or calculate his chan
ces in life.
" Why is the letter R very unfortu
nate ? Because it is always in trouble,
wretchedness, and misery, is the be
ginning of riot and ruin, and is never
found in peace, innocence or love.
Honesty is the beet policy. 1

The American Cooking Stove.
AFTER twenty years experience in the man
ufacture of stoves, we became convinced,
some -six years since, that a vast amount of
money was being expended by the peoplo of this
country, in buying cheap and worthless stoves, a
large piortion of which was wasted; and th ati
true economy consisted in buying the best stoves'
that could be made, notwithstanding the price
was higher. With this view wo proceeded to
construct the American Cooking Stove, and
spared no pain's or expense to make it the beet
and most perfect stove that could be made. And
we have experimented with it, and carefully
watched its operation for the last six years, and
,when an improvement suggested itself, we have
at once adopted it, and we have several of these
improvements secured by letters patent. In
this manner wo do not hesitate to say, we have
brought it to a higher state ofd perfection than
has heretofore been attained in cooking stoves.,
The recent improvements in ' this stove has
added largely to its convenience and effective
ness. In all the varieties of stoves wo manu
facture, we study usefulness, durability, conve
nience and economy in operation, rather ' than
cheapness in price, and in so doing we are satis
fied we study the interest of those purchasing
our stoves. SHEAR, PACKARD, & CO.,
