THE GREAT SEA SERPENT AGAIN
We hear of great wonders above and below,
But the marvellous serpent's the topic just now;
So we take up the subject by way of a change,
There's nothing in this so remarkably strange.
So listen a moment, for now is the time
To speak of the Serpent in tangible rhyme.
The Serpent's a wonder—but still the acute
Protest 'tis a seal ! hence arises dispute.
So we turn from the monster to things on the land,
Where wonders, like noonday, indelibly stand !
The wonders NY hiell lIYAM produces each day,
Are such as might carry our fancies away:
But still 'tis a fact which some thousands can show,
That the wonders of II YAM abundantly flow !
His Over Coats wrap, like a Serpent, around,
In their genial warmth, oh what comfort is found 1
The chills of November fall pow'rless away,
You heed not how stormy or drizzling the day ;
The Serpent's a query. lIYAM'S clothing is not,
'Tis the cheapest and best that the nation e'er got

REVIEW Or THE MIRK.

La'Mert on the Infirmities of Touth and Maturity.—" There are
scenes in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but
Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the
mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf
into which such scenes must plunge him 1 In the book before us
such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the
erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al-
ready tutored by the vices of which It treats. It is written in a style
of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of
philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a
production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally,
upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and
propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By nn
taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed ; but wherever
laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing In these
pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of
a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine."

AUSTRIA.

The election of Smona.A. as President of the Diet
of Kremsier has excited great surprise and disap-
pointment at Olmutz, and has caused the Ministry to
modify considerably in favour ci liberal opinions the
programme wbich they intend to present to the Diet.
The Cologne Gazette of the 27th says—
"On the Bourse to-day trustworthy reports from
Vienna were current, to the effect that Austria had defi-
nitively resolved to separate herself from the German
National Assembly, and would withdraw her representa-
tives from Frankfort."

The Wiener Zeitung of the 24th announces the
tic^n ^r thy. occupation of the city of Oedenburg by
the Imperial troops.
" A Servian deputation is still at Olmutz. It demands
a Servisn waiwode (a governor) similar to what has bewn
given to Croatia and Sclavonia. It requires the aboli-
tion of the Magyar ministry, the free federation of all
the people of Austria, with a ministry at Vienna, and a
single Diet for the whole monarchy. The Servians
have elected as their own chief their patriarch, in the
person of Rajecie,.and their waiwode in that of Suplicae,
and they require that the Emperor should sanction
these elections.
" The commissioners from Frankfort have arrived at
Vienna. All the documents relative to the trial of Ro-
bert Blum, and upon which he was condemned, have
been submitted to them."
The price of provisions in Vienna is increasing
every day.
The Emperor of RUSSIA has desired that the names
of " Alexander " and " Michael " shall be withdrawn
from the two Hungarian regiments who have joined
Kossuzu, and has ordered the officers of these regi-
ments to send back all the Russian orders with which
they may be decorated, as he considers them un-
worthy to wear them.
London, England, 1848-12-01

L 0 V E is the leading feeling of the human
breast. More exalted than mere passion, it soars high above
every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice,
but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from
its Influence, or can avoid its sway ; and business, pleasure, philo-
sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under the enthralling
power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity
with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage.
When union does not take place, however, this passion, this
fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly
poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright-
ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un-
changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life-
time spent in the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con-
tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind?
It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early
habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be
disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been
instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important
ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be
beyond measure deplorable ! Loving and beloved, he entails the
most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon
himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of
natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of
unalloyed happiness The subject is interesting, and deserves the
attention of all. Those desirous of investigating it will find the
fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work entitled
SELF-PRESERVATION,

Illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology,
and diseases of the reproductive organs ; with practical observa-
ions on the secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from
solitary habits, excesses, o? infection.

Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of
Edinburgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Mall, London, Honorary
Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Bce.
This treatise is the result of a long course of study in a peculiar and
muck liegleeted branch of medical practice, and the author having ob-
tained the highest medical honours, is a guarantee for his profes-
sional experience, Ivhich has reference almost solely to the treat-
ment of these diseases.

RUSSIA.

Sr. PETERSnURGH, Nov. 19.—The night before
last the Neva, inside the city, was frozen. .As this
river broke up this year on the 2d of April, it has
been free from ice 231 days this summer. The mean
time for the settling of the ice is the 26th of Novem-
ber, consequently it is rather earlier this year than
usual. Yesterday the bridge for foot-passengers was
thrown across at the usual place, and thus the com-
munication is restorEd between Wassili-Ostrow and
the populous side. Early in the morning the ther-
mometer was 15 deg. R.

the asylum, and on their way thither the fair
ugitive was heard to ask her lover " Whether he
intended to make a fool of her, or to marry her?" He re-
plied "To marry you, most certainly, as he would play
the fool to no lady." He then offered her his arm, but
she replied, " No, you shall not run away with me,
but I will run away with you." Near the bridge a ve-
hicle was waiting for them by a fellow-servant of Norris,
and on entering they urged their flight to the Boar's
Head, near Wigan, and, in order to evade detection,
they got out of the vehicle and passed on foot through
the tollgate. Upon reaching Warrington, they obtained
a horse and chaise, and got to Chester, and on Sunday
morning they were married at St. Oswald's Church,
both parties being described as of Liverpool.
The wedding day passed away, and information of the
journey had now reached the ears of the police. Sergeant
Hetherington, of Standish, was dispatched after and
surprised them on Monday, soon after breakfast hour, at
their private lodgings in Chester. He took the lady into
custody, according to the instructions he had received,
and told Norris he might follow if he chose. They re-
turned together to Chorley when Mr. Seed gave orders for
Norris to be also taken into custody. On Tuesday he was
bailed out, and hundreds of people thronged the streets of
Chorley, all on the qz!i vine, and anxious to hear the cause
tried before the magistrates, who met about one o'clock
in the afternoon.

The prisoner was charged before the magistrates with
breaking into Mr. Seed's dwelling-house for an unlawful
purpose, and stealing Miss Elizabeth Thule, from motives
of lucre, to marry her, she having then an interest in
real and personal estate. No evidence being offered, the
prisoner was discharged.
Norris then demanded his wife, but the Bench said
they had nothing to do with her, and the Chairman said
he did not know that he had got one. The fair fugitive
—now Mrs. Norris—was taken back to the asylum, and
the last reports described her as being like a caged dove
without its mate. Upon leaving the police-station
Norris was loudly cheered by the populace, and flags
were hoisted to greet him with welcome when he arrived
at Chorley-moor. He told the people he was determined
to get back his wife, let the consequences be ever so
dreadful. _ _

_
There will, no doubt, be some further inquiry into this
extraordinary occurrence.—Preston Guardian.
The Manchester Guardian states, on " unquestionable
authority," that instead of 3,0001. a year, Miss Durie has
no fortune whatever of her own. With regard to the
lady's insanity, the same paper states that she was
placed in the institution on the certificate of two leading
physicians of the county.

FRANKFORT.

The draft of Chap. IV. of the Constitution was
distributed on the 28th, with a brief report by Pro-
fessol Dahlmann. Of the Lower or popular House
the report says nothing, except that its members are
to be elected for four years ; whereas the senators,
or members o f the Upper Chamber, will be elected
for a sexennial period. The remaining details ara
left to be decided by the election law, which is al-
ready in active preparation, and will be brought out
as soon as the Constitution is vottd in toto. Thus
much is known, however, viz.—that the basis of
the popular representation is one member to every
100,000 inhabitants, so that the Chamber will consist
of some 440 members. The Upper House evi-
dently perplexed the Committee the in( st. It differs
in two respects from the American system—first,
inasmuch as it possesses no competence of itself
distinct from the Lower House; and second, inas-
much as it does not give an equal representation
the other. No state is en-

F.HANKFORT.

In the sitting of the German Parliament on the
27th November, a note from the Minister of Justice,
addressed to the Presidial Board, for communication to
the National Assembly, was read, in which it was
stated that, on the evening of the memorable 18th of
September ult., a Member of the Assembly, whom
the riot prevented from proceeding homeward, was
obliged to remnin for a while in a public-house out-
side the city, in which he had heard a man boast of
having dragged Prince LICHNOWSKY from his retreat.
The Frankfort Criminal Court, through the medium
of the Ministry, petitioned the Assembly to resolve
upon measures for the identification of the deputy in
question, in order that his evidence might be heard.
RIMER, the officiating President, thought this
simple notification would suffice.

RUSSIA.
ST. PETERSBURGII, Nov. 19.—The night before
last the Neva, inside the city, was frozen. As this
river broke up this year on the 2d of April, it has
been free from ice 231 days this summer. The mean
time for the settling of the ice is the 26th of Novem-
ber, consequently it is rather earlier this year than
usual. Yesterday the bridge for foot-passengers was
thrown across at the usual place, and thus the com-
munication is restored between Wassili-Ostrow and
the populous side. Early in the morning the ther-
mometer was 15 deg. R.

The Lieutenant-General of the Germanic empire
has published the following decree
The law of 28th June, 1848, ha, defined the attri-
butions of the Central Power, as well far the direction
of the army as for international relations and the exer-
cise of the executive power in all affairs connected with
the safety and well-being of Germany. Paragraph 14
of this law imports that, in measures of execution,
the Central Power is to place itself in accord with
the plenipotentiaries of the governments. On July 15,
the Central Power declared that it relied upon the co-
operation of the German Governments. in the exercise
of its rights and in the fulfilment of its duties ; and
that they, in concert with it, should pursue one and the
same end. F.iithtul to this declaration, and seeing
that all the Plenipotentiaries are named, it proclaims
as follows:—The Central Power acknowledges the
grandeur and importance of its engagements—it knows
that the solution of difficulties depends upon the strength
and firmness of its measures, and in cases where cer-
tain rights of separate states may be infringed, those
of the German Union ought to prevail. These are the
principles upon which must be founded the relations
between the Central Power and the plenipotentiaries.
They will facilitate the execution of the deci-
siens of the Central Power without having the
right of controlling them by exercising a collective ac-
tion. The Central Power reserves the right of placing
itself, according to circumstances, in relation with the Go-
vernments of the separate states and their organs, ex-
pecting that they will act iu like manner with regard to
it; but tor carrying into execution measures resolved
upon, the Central Power will address itself to the Pleni-
potentiaries, and receive their communications in
writing. The Central Power will keep itself constantly
informed by these communications with the Plenipoten-
tiaries, of the wants, the wishes, and the desires of the
separate states, so far as they may be compatible with
the interests of Germany in general."

nesses.

The elections were approaching. The factions
which wished to overthrow the Government of the
moderate Republic, and to confiscate the Republic to
the clubs, and to the dictatorship of certain con-
spirators who employed those clubs as their
instruments, began, after a few days, to
meditate a most desperate adventure. A hundred
thousand men, under their immediate direction,
began to assemble upon the Champ-de-Mars, prEpa-
ratory to marching in a dense mass upon the Hotel
de Ville, for the purpose of expelling from the Pro-
visional Government those members who resisted
the domination of the clubs, of proclaiming a Com-
mittee of Public Safety, of inaugurating a Dictato-
rial Government—a reminiscence of the Despotism
of the Convention—a parody of the 31st of May
against the Girondists. We were informed of these
preparations. We had already made the most pa-
thetic appeals to the populace, with the intention, if
possible, of deadening the menaces of this insensate
attempt against the sovereignty of the people, and
especially at the very moment when that sovereignty
was on the eve of evidencing its existence through
the exercise of universal suffrage. We did not suc-
ceed in our endeavour. The coup detat of the clubs
was inexorably resolved upon. We were only ig-
norant of the day upon which it was to be adven-
tured.

" A report has been in circulation since the day before
yesterday, that the Ministers Doblhoff and Schwarzer are

exhausttun of his physical powers, resolved to consecrate
himself for some time longer to the weal of the State.

This bankrupt, a builder, at West Cowes, came up to
pass his last examination.
Ur. Duncan appeared to oppose, and Mr. Lucas sup-

On Wednesday this contest was resumed and brought
to a conclusion, when it will bo seen, on a perusal of the
final score, which will be found attached, that the Eleven
were the victors by 137 runs. Indeed, from the eerly
part of the first innings, it became apparent that our
friends of Sunderland did not possess such a necessary
completion of their studies and practice in the game us
was at all likely to enable them to make even a reason-
ably good stand against the amount of accomplishment
in the scierco which was opposed to them. The Eleven
thus became the winners by 157 runs. The ultimate

NARROW ESCAPE OF THE ARIADNE YACHT.—
About half-past ten on the evening of Sunday, the 3d
inst., Lord Godolphin's yacht the Ariadne, of 84 tons
then standing down channel, with a south south-east
wind, when off Portland, with scarcely wind enough
to stem the tide, they saw a large steamship standing
up towards them, at about half a mile distance. The
captain showed a lantern and burnt a blue light to
no effect. He burnt a second, and the distance was
reduced to a quarter of a mile, but to no purposd ;
the fiery monster bore straight down on them till
they were within two hundred yards, when the shout-
ing of all on board the yacht at last made her situa-
tion known to the officers of the steamer, who called
out " Hard a starboard !" which was immediately
done, and they passed within a few feet, never even
stopping their speed or taking any further notice.
Those in the yacht had given themselves up for lost,
and had their cries not been heard at the moment,
and the steamer's course altered, the yacht would have
been cut down, and it is more than probable all on
board would have perished. It is said that the steamer
has since proved to be the Hermann, from-New York.
The burning of blue lights having so often failed to
give the necessary notice, it is suggested to try
rockets. If a sky-rocket had been let off from the
yacht right over the steamer, it would have given
notice, not only to the men who ought to have been
on the look-out, but to all on the deck of the steamer,
while the blue light would not be seen by any aft of
the steamer's lights.
