Some Of the cconng is extremely beautiful, particu-
larry the hill on the let OF the grand bridge from
which the materials oil the building have been obtain

spccptcr. The idea OF such apaintlng in realization
OF Mptons sublime conceptions is altogether orpina
and Is executed as ekilfully and faithfully as IT is
body designed. The figure which occupies the mos,
forward place that Of the Great Dragona strange
shaped but beautifully, green monster who is yawn

poa on the other side of the bridge. The inquire of

Ethereal temper-indssy large, and round,
Behind him cast"
he appears dilated with haughtincss and surveys his
regions and his hall of council, with the dir of one ac
tuated by
"Theunconquerable will
AUD study of revenge, immortal hate,
Ana courage never 10 submit ycd."
The Paudemoniun is ornamented with rows Of
serpcnts, eymbohcal of Satan, and supporting
Starry lamps aud blazing orcsse,s, fed
With naptha and ssphaltus"
There are also figures of eleph,nts and o,bcr ,p;.

East The architecture is massive aud rnrtakcs
rather ct the Egyptian character, which is perhap
OF all others, The best adapted to mn,ense cdiices by
Expressing with awe rather than by exciting almra.
ti"n' We think 1t very likely that this Panorama
wli' from It's novelty, be, we trust it nav an
exceedingly profitable speculation to Mr.. Burfurd.-
IL Is indeed splendid and terrific exhibition and n
sIpasses IN effect all that has yet bcne attempted in
thus way Wequite agree with the reasons he ASSIGNS

HODBLEDEHOYS.
No, a man-nor boy,
"Bm a Hobbledelloy."-IOtd Sol,

''Ba Hobbedenoy."-fon Song.
IF there is time. happy time,
When boy is just half man;
: When ladies may kiss him without crime,
And hrt with him like FAM
When maumas with their daughters will leave him
alone,
Fhe only will seom 20 fear them; ~
, While, were he man or little more grown,
They never would let him come near them.
These. LiIly,-these were the DAYS when YOU
Were my 1oyhoods earliest fiame,-
When thought an honour to tie your shoe,
Aud trembed to hear your name:--
When scarcely vontured to take Hiss,
rho your lips seemed half to invite me:
But, Lilly! soon got over this
When kissed-and they did not bite me- &
OH those were gludsome, and fairy times,
And our hearts were then i'm the spring.
When 1 passed my nights in writing you rhymes,
And my days IN hearing you sing
-And don't YOU remember your mothers disnlav
When she found in your drawer my sonnct
And the beautiful verses wrote one day,
On the ribbon that hung from your bonnet
And the seat We made by thc fountains rush.
Where your task you were wont to say
AND how lay under the holly bush ?
I'm your goveruess went away:---'r
And how, when too long at your task YOU eat,
Or whenever kiss ] wanted,
urdyed Ike an ass-or mewcd like a cat,
lilslle deemed that the place was hauntcd>
And do not you, love, remember the DAVIS
When dressed you for the play
when pinned your kcrcliief and laced your siays
In the neaiest and tidiest wuy9--
And do You forget the kiss you gave,
hen tore my hands with the pint
And how you wondered men would not shave
The boards from their horrible chin,
And do you remember the garden wall
climbed up every night
And the racket we made in the servants hail
When the wind had put out the light
When Sally got up in her pettcoat,
Aud John came out in his shirt
And silenccd her with a guinea note
And blinded him with squirt?
And don't you remember the horrible bite
l got from the gardeners bitch,
When John let her out the kennel for spite
And she seized me crossing the ditch:-
And how you wept when you saw my blood
And numbered me with Loves nlartyrg
Aud how you helped me out of the mud,
BY tying together your carriers?
But. Lilly. now am grown man,
And thDse days all gone Bly,
And fortune may give the best she can
And the brightest destiny;
But ] would give every hope and JOY
49,. That my spirit may taste again,
That once more were that gladstone boy,
And that you were as young as then

MoRE IEMALR MISCHIEF We have, from
time TO time, noticed thu entertainments made
by the ladies upon the rights and privileges Of
the lordy sex. They have at last capped the
climax Of their enormities, and reached the
Ultima thule" of their aggressons. Two la
dies-,he one French, and The other German
la,cly quarrelled at Stra'sbourg about young
miniature painter. The latter is BARONESS E;
the former, wife 10 General of Division. The
German lady challenged her rIval-female Sc
ccnds were appointed, and the parties belligr>
rent met, pistol in hand. The fair German in
sisted upon Sighting muzze TO muzze-but the
more prudent French woman stood out for
twenty five PAGES. The word was given, FIRE.
and hey did fire with great nonchalance, borh
a, the same moment, and both missed. Here
upon Germany became little excited, aud in
sisted upon advancing and firing until the one
or the other should fall. France demurTed-
did not like the plan al aIl--was wiling to try
another shot at twenty five PAGES, but was a.
verse 10 approximation. The seconds inter
posed-dec Jared that the laws OF honor were
satisGed--took away the pistols, and put
stay to further proceedings. Before leaving the
ground, France, in very handsome terms, dis
claimed all personal hostility, saying "she had
though, it die 10 her honour TO lake a shot
with the German, but now that the affair was
al an end, the lady was welcome to the NINA
,ure painter, whom she had forbidden her
presence that very morning." Thus Germa-
nv got the painter, and so ended this tragedy

Yesterday stated the fact Of FIVE individuals
having been executed by order Of the usur2er,
who had only been sentenced by the legal tri-
bunal to transportation for ile-an unheard.of
interference with the judgment of a criminal

of our late London papers, gives clrcum-
slanta accoun, OF The execution OF these un'
fortunate men, the mere recital OF which Is sui
ficient to chill the blood Of any one having

got on his shoulders, riding on him and swing
ing about with one OF his feet upon the victim
hands, (Which, being tied together, made a
kind Of siirrup) whilst another hangman pull
ed him down by the feet. The others were
served in the same manner, and the bodies
were then cut down and laid on the ground,
when their heads were chopped of, and stuck
upon iron points fixed on the posts OF the gal,

commissions, which had been made out for IN
,corthy persons, have been recalled, and others
made out for better men; and this, strange as
i, may seem, is mentioned in proof of the abili-

REVOLUTIONARY RELIcs.-In removing the
earth for the foundation Of he Greene and
Pulaski Monument Yesterday the workmcn
discovered what is called half tile, Of abou,
nine inches diameter, in perfec, preservation,
upon which Is cut the inscription a. D. 1882;
together with portion of log Of pine, five
lret in leng h, considerably <decayed. The lie
we have no doubt, was deposited when The
Liberry Pole was raised in Johnson's Square,
oil the evacuation of this city by the British
and the log or stick is probably The stump o.
that very symbol Of The present freedom and
independence of our soil, exhibited upon that
occasion. This discovery gives additional in

to be erected; on none other could j, more ap.

HUME David Hume observed that all the
dev out persons he had ever met with were
melancholy. On this Bishop Horne remarked,
this might very probably be, for, in the first
place, i, is most likely that he saw very few,
his friends and acquaintance being Of another
sort; and secondly, the sight Of him would
make devour man look serious at any time.
