There is not, says ADDISON, a more
useful class of society than Merchants.
They knit mankind together 10 mutual
intercourse Of good offices, distribute the
gifts of nature, find work for the poor,
augment The wealth of nation, and in.
crease the comforts and conveniences Of

POETRY.
From the .qmeriean Watelman.

On seeing Trumbull's NATIONAL PICTURE
OF the DECLARATION OF INDEPEN
DENCE, exhibited at New-York, October 10
1878.
ALL hail | all hail august and glorious band
Faithful and firm, in times that tried the soul;
Who, to an injured, dear, devoted land,
Spoke more than comfort in that sacred scroll;
That scroll-whose blazoned tale of early wrongs
Appeal'd indignant to the admiring world;
Told unto monarchs what to men belongs,
And in the tyrant's teeth, defiance hurFd :--
That scroll, immortal as the matches Mind
That pour'd his own bright spirit on the page,
Gave Freedoms grandest lesson 10 mankind,
And stamp'd his image on the noblest age.
Proud was the moment when that dread divan
PROCLAIMED in thunder, that the deed was done
And show'd to suffering, yet exu'ting man,
Despots dethron'd, aud liberty begun.
Then INDEPENDENCE took the Eagles form,
Mid consolidated stars sublimey scared,
Followed his chosen standard through the storm,
And lent his lightning to the avengers sword.
Reckless, before, Columbia's Champions fought,
Desp'rate their daring; effort without aim
Yict'ry was vengeance and no more they sought
Till wisdom show'd the path to loftier fame.
Fhe mighty magic of a nations name,
Gives to each heart new and rapturous thrill
Redress they scorn--a country is their claim,
Their universal shout, the peoples will.
IT'S done the eternal triumph is achieved
Beloved band in vain We did not cope;
Glory outstrips what dreaming youth believed,
And all is history that once was hope.
Amply the patriot passion swells the heart
That DER the glorious picture pants in youth
sLo how each scenic sketch of .fa6ling art
Fades in the fame of high historic truth.
That silent senate-how sedately grand
In more than Roman majesty, severe;
Patriots, all pure and primitive they stand,
Stern, incorrupt, beyond or fraud or fear
And here, where patriot forms the canvass crowd
Raptured gaze, and almost bend the knee,
And view each visage, awed but oh, how proud
In that high consciousness-I too am free
Free, as the WORTHLESS of my father land,
Who earn'd that glorious land its fairest fame
Free as the artist, whose historic hand
With theirs has eterniz'd TRuMBULL's name
Scenes from Shakespeare, by West, are sus-
pended in the same Gallery

ALEXANDRIA,:
FRID.4Y, AUGUST 81, 1918.

The unhappy individuals who persisted
on board the vessel, mentioned yesterday,
which foundered in the Potomac on satur-
day last, were Mrs. Mary Smith, wife OF
Mr.. Richard Smith, and her two children ;
Mrs. Elizabeth Fowler, and one child !;
Mrs. Brien, wife of Mr. Enoch Brien, and
one child; al of this city; and Miss ANY,
daughter of Mr.. Basil Alyy, of ST. Mary's
county. The men on board saved them
selves, but, we presume the violence OF
the storm rendered il totally impossible tor
them to afford any aid 10 he women and
children. This distressing occurrence look
place near Quantico creek. Several o'her
vessels are said to have been sunk eu'
none of their names have reached US, nor
the names of any sufferers but those men

AWFUL STORM


On Saturday last this town and vicinity
were visited with one of the most violent
storms of thunder, lightning, and rain, We
have ever witnessed. TIE water descend
ed upon us in unexampled torrents, End al
most simultaneously covered our Streets
The clouds which hung directly over us.
were profusely charged with the electric
fluid, which produced, by IFS discharge,
awful and melancholy effects. Many build
ings, situated at some distance from each
other, were struck and considerably shat
tered. In one house, three sons of Mr..
Loney, the eldest about Is years of age,
were instantaneousIy killed. In another,
lady was violently shocked, stunned, and
somewhat injured {; and in several other
places, the effects of the lightning were
sensibly felt, but in less violent degree.
The horses in the Frankfort stage, just en-
tering tile town, were all knocked down,
and one of them killed. The storm lasted
in its full force but short time, and, we
understand, extended only over small
space Of country.

cuhIous STORY.

The official Gazette of Christiana, in
Norway, contains the following article -
''About week before the Easter hoh-
days, several men who went Out on the cod
fishery, persisted in the storm. On Easter
day, in the evening, some fishermen took a
shark in their nets. They found in his
stomach, two barrels of oats, and man in
4 sailors dress, with clothes made OF skin
and sea boots, but without hat. As his
features were not changed, he was recog-
nized TO be one OF the persons who had Pc
risheG in the tempest which took place Sc
vers days before ne was therefore deli
vered 10 his family, and was buried at He
roes." 49,

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT
For eftctually separating garlic ]
Wheat. and other small grain.

For efeCtudily separating garlic from
Wheat, and other small grain.
This great object, which has so long re.
NAMED desideratum TO the agricultural
and commercial interests OF our country
and which baflled the efforts of our most in.
geniCus mechanics, and those particularly
Interested in mills. is now etfectually &C
complished.
Recourse has been had to various expedi-
ents, and particularly TO sitting and blow
ing but all experiments Of this kind have
failed, owing principally to the near APP
Proclamation of the garlic seed to wheat il
point Of size.
Merchants and farmers need not be fold
how important il is, that flour should be
brought to market free from any foreign
taste. Ii is mol onl y more agreeable TO the
palate, but, what is Of greater consequence
in commerce, commands better price both
in our own and in foreign countries. This
improvement is therefore an object OF ma
tional importance.
But this improvement, originally intend
ed only TO separate the garlic from the
wheat, proceeds in its operation, not only
10 accomplish its particular purpose, but to
separate whatever is Of greater or less size
than sound grain of wheat and also TO free
it from dust and soluble matter, which in
the usual mode Of treading wheat attaches
to it. Ii also separates and carries off all
smut or smutty grain, which in some parts
of the country is an evil equally pernicious
with garlic
Should this method be generally adopted
Of which there is but little doubt, it will by
furnishing the farmers with clean seed, Ell
fectusily prevent the sowing of garlic,
which now overruns large portions of the
country, where it has increased immensely
within few years.
We have no hesitation in stating that
judging from the experiments which have
been already made and frequently repeat

Gently arrived inthis city, and who pursuing
his journey on foot to the westward, had ar

with the coat. Thinking tina, only a jest
was intended, the traveller called 10 him
"Don't take away the old mans coat"
and he thereupon threw down the coat,

The two opposing sections Of the demo-
cratic party in Baltimore, as they alternate
b assemble in the different wards, are
making their respective nominations ofcan-
didates Tor the several offices in the gift Of
the sovereign people. lngratitude is said
TO be the vice OF republics, and a DISPOSE
ton to change is evidently trait in the de-
mocratic character for, rotation in office
is such a favorite maxim with democrats,
that they delight in the practice, right or
wrong. 1t is reasonable, therefore, to con-
clude, that in city where three-fourths Of
the voters boast of being Democratic Re-
pabiicans, the men in office will have the
worst chance in the approaching contest.
