A late London paper gives an account Of an
experiment made with Steam Carriage on
common road, that was entirely successful, and
induces the hope that short time will enable US
to do without the use Of horse power, where &c.
lerity Of movement is desirable. The inventor
of the new engine is Mr.. Walter Hancock, of
S,ratford, who was attended by several scientific
gentlemen from London, sixteen of whom took
seats in the cars in front. The carriage, guided
BY Mr.. Hancock in front, was put in motion by
his turning a lever connected with the steam cock
Of the boiler, and proceeded through Stratford,
up the hill, to the Green Man, on the Forest, at
a steady pace Of eight miles an hour. He then
turned short, and returned to the factory within
forty minutes. alter running about seven miles
in the pleasautest manner, and with a perfect
sense Of security to every one in the carriage
IL fact, the experiment was successful, and we
may henceforward look to the rapid introduction
Of safe and greatly improved mode Of travel.

Here's to thee, my Scottish lasse!
Here's hearty health 10 thee,
For thine eve SO bright, thy form so light,
And thy step SO firm and free;
For all thine artless elegance,

For the music Of thy mirthtul voice,
| And the sunshine of thy face,
For thy gultless look and speech sincere,
Yet sweet as speech canbe,
Here's health my Scottish lassle.
Here's hearty health to thee.
Here's to thee, my Scottish lassie!-
Though my glow of youth 10 Ger;
And I, as once felt and dream'd,
! Must feel and dream no mare;
Though the world, with all its frosts and storms,
Has child my soul at last,
And genius, with the foodful looks
OF youthful friendship past;
Though my path is dark and lonely,
Now, DER this worlds dreary sea-
Here's health, my Scottish AISLE!
Here's hearty health to thee!
Here's to thee. my Scottish lassie!-
Though know that not for me
Is thine eye 80 bright thy form so light,
And thv step so firm and free;
Though thou with cold and careless looks,
Wit often PASS ME by,
Unconscious Of my swelling heart,
And of my wistiul eve;
Though thou wilt wed some Highland loved,
Nor waste one thought, on me,
Here health, my Scottish lassie!
Here's hearty health to thee
Here's to thee, my Scottish lassie.
When meet thee in the throng
Of merry youths and maidens,
Dancing lgIlsomely along,
I'll dream away an hour or twain,
Still gazing on thy form,
And !, perhaps, shalt touch thy hand.
And share thy looks of glee,
And for once, my Scottish assie!
Dance glddJ dance with thee.
Here's to thee, my Scottish lassie!-
| shall think of thee al even,
When see Its first and fairest star
Come smiling up through Heaven;
shall hear thy sweet and touching voice.
In every wind that grievcs,
As it whrls from the abandoned oak,
Its withered autumn leaves;
In the gloom Ct the wild forest,
In the stiffness of the sea.
shall think, my Scottish lassie!
l shall often think Of thee.
Here's to thee, my Scottish lassie!-
In my sad and lonely hours,
The thought Of thee comes DER me,
Like the breath of distant flowers;--
Like the music that enchants mine ear,
The sights that bless mine eye,
The verdure of the meadow,
Like the azure of the sky,
Like the rainbow in the evening,
Like the blossoms on the tree,
ts'the thought, my Scotch asse!
Is the lonely thought Of thee.
Here's to thee, my Scottish lassie!-

10 a third reading in tho House Of Lords on
the sOth Of May. BY the appearance of
things 10 the newspapers. we are led To con-
clude that the opposition members withdrew
from the contest, probably on the ground that
it would be carried by the creation of peers,
if it could not be without, and therefore they
preferred the negative course, rather than
The establishment of such precedent as
would be the consequences Of the former meas
ure. The papers are unusually barren of

to M. Perrier had not been appointed in

GREECE.
By letters from Naupia, dated the nth

trias has resigned as President Of the Greek
Government; this was brought about by the
success Of Coletti, at the head of the Rou-
meliot party; he was stationed with his adj.
herents beyond the Isthmus of COrinth, at
Niagara and Perachora, and the passes Of the
Isthmus We're occupied by the Morea troops.
Culletti forced his way through them, and
frst marching upon Argos, made his appear
ance at the gates Of Nauplia. In this state Of
things general wish prevailed for the estab-
lishment Of provisional government on a
broader basis, and which would embrace all

already stated, then resigned his govern
ment was dissolved, and new provisional
government was to be framed immediately,
to conduct the affairs Of the country until thu
arrival of the pritfce destined for the throne
Of Greece.
It is stated in the French papers that the
project for placing Prince Ohio, of Bavaria,
on the throne Of Greece. has been abandoned,
as there appears no probability Of extracting
from the Greeks revenue adequate to the
maintenance Of force sufficient to ensure the
safety or permanently Of kingly govern

to contribute the sum requisite.
