FRIENDsHIP.-By w. RAY.


d Without friend The world is but ssiidernes'"
Without afiend-w.hout friend,
The world is but wilde ness;
Though sun arise and rams descend,
Yet all is dark aud comforlless:
How sad without one CLEAN Of hope,
Through this lone wilderness to grope.
Buds may expand, and flowers awhile
May blossom, only to decay;
The trees may bow their heads and smile;
Kiss'd by the breezes of the day;
But 20 northumberland see
Nought but the weeping-willow tree.
Those beas Of prey-the passions dire,
Infest tine forest OF the mind
Not purified by cultures fire
Enlightened by it, OF retin'd;
But LET in friendships vivid ray,
And all is Eden-all is day.
The wilderness begins TO bloom
Atresh-and fruits begin to grow
Philosophy dispels the gloom
That settles on our path below,
And blesl Religion points above,
Where all is friendship love-
On Him who is the friend of all,
My soul in safety shall depend,
Though earth may sink, and skies may fall;
He is my everlasting friend;
The favor of whose friendship is
Unfading and eternal bliss

The Connecticut Mirror has been favored with copy
OF the Poem delivered by Dr. Perceva before the p b.
H. Society at New Haven last September 1t is phosu-
phicay abstract and relates matters that enthusiast
can best understand OF Truth, he says, beautifully,
"Truth
Comes to with slow and doubtful step,
Measuring the ground she treads on, and forever
Turning her curious eye, to see that all
Is right behind, and with keen survey
Choosing her onward path"
In touching upon those feelings which constitute
poetic MARTYR and enable him carry his independence
through all tine trials and orments that his soul may suffer
OH earth, he speaks in much fervour of DAME,
who with his capacious mind
Mas cred his age, and held the golden key
of all It's wsdom-he who equally
Sang of the bliss of Heaven and woe of HE'LL
Cropping through the dim of Erebus,
And winding up the peniteDtial mount
Then soaring through the widening orbs of Heaven;
Up 10 the Hoest-how his native Florence,
Ills dear ungrateful Florence, thrust him out,
And on him closed her pondeous iron doors,
Barring to the last moment all return,
And with stern and savage cruelty
Chasing him in his exile, till they left
No pillow for his head-no dying pillow,
Where he might iid an instant of repose,
Even for his last confesson-Now he went
Sadly from court 10 court seeking shelter.
And all too bold and free, to please the
of princes, command the turbulent crowds
Now after many wanderngs, be found
Twas hard to climb another's stair and bitter
To eat anotIer's bread, and leaving this,
His only legacy, went to his grave
Willingly, as laborer to his couch
Seeking in death the kindness he had never
Found in his home-thus telling to the world,
How desolate and cold the height of fame"
We are glad the book out for the author have
fair chance of being fairly judged. The defects of de-
The memory, certainly not proper subjects of crit

A DEEP WELL.-The modern system Of

practice of digging, when duly persisted in, was ca

French author Tin the Traits de perite y relaes
an instance where laborers had been employed for
several months in digging we'll, without finding
water; and a, length, after getting through various
strata they came to broad flat, whi!ish stone.
Upon this they struck for considerable time, until.
as ,hev were wondering at its extreme hardnesss
one of the workmen fancied that he heard voices
somewhere beneath. This was actually the facts
for they had, without knowing it, reached the An
tpodes; and upon listening between the blows of
the pick axe, they could plainly distinguish the
voices of women, crying to one another to come
