THE HOUR OF DEPTH,
BY MRS. HEMANs.

Leaves have their time to TALL.
And flowers 10 wither at the north winds breath,
And stars TO set--but all,
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, oh Death
Day is for mortal care,
Eve for glad meetings round the joyous hearth,
Night for the dreams of sleep, the voice OF pray
But all, for thee, thou Mighliest OF the Earth! err
The banquet hath its hour,
Its teserish hour of mrth, and song, and wine er
There comes day for Griet's erwhelming pow
A time for softer tears--but all are thine
Youth and the opening rose
May look like things too glorious for decay,
And smile at thee but thou art not Of those
That wait the ripen'd bloom TO seize their prey
Leaves have their time TO fall,
And flowers to wither at the north winds breath,
And stars TO set-but all,
Thou hast al seasons for thine own, oh Death
We know when moons shall wane,
When summer birds from far shall cross the sea,
When autumn's hue shall nge he golden grain;
Blu. who shall teach us when TO look for thee
Is il when Springs first gale
Comes forth to whisper where the violets lie:
Is 1t when roses in our paths grow pale:
They have one season-Gu are ours TO die
Thou art where pillows foam,
Thou art where music melts upon the air;
Thou art around us in our peaceful home,
And the world calls us forth land thou art there.
Thou art where friend meets friend
Beneath the shadow Of The elm TO rest;
Thou ART where Toe meets foe, aud lrumpets rend
The skies, and swords beat down the princely crest
Leaves have their time to fall,
And flowers TO wiiher OF the north. winds BREATH
Aud stars 10 set-bul all,
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, oh Death.

ELECTRlCITY.-The Philadelphia Gazette re.
marks that Mr.. Lukins Of that city is now engaged
IN making lightning rods for ships. For rod, in
joints, one hundred feet long, and with plana
point, he asks only ten dollars.
Mt tew OF the vessels Of which we have no ac-
count, are probably destroyed by lightning. Ships
being the only prominent objects on The ocean,
must OF necessity attract the electric fluid and when
the great quantity Of iron which enters into their
construction is considered it seems remarkable that
they should ever be exposed TO a thunder storm and
escape without damage.

last, for his residence in the county of Lincoln,
and is supposed to have lost his way and Pc
rished, as his horse arrived at home the day

for him for several days without success. He
was of small stature, aged about seventy years,
and had become very weak and infrm. The
place of his nativity to me is unknown, but BY
his papers lie seems formerly to have been a
merchant in the City of New-York, of conside-
rable note; and in the year 1916, to have
come % the town of St. LOUIS in the then
territory, now state of Missouri, to transact
business for David Smith, jr. & Co. of said city.
He died without will, and without any known
heirs to his estate. Administration has,
therefore been granted. and bis personal es.
tate appraised at the sum of one hundred and
seventy-hve dollars and sixty-nine cents
