POETRY

We copy from the New York weekly
Messenger rich specimen Of poetry, said
to be extracted from 40 Irish Magazine
the date is NOT given II bears close re
semblance to Lord Byron's apostrophe TO
the ocean, in Childe Harold; and IS pro
badly designed as an imitation Of that eel
ebrated passage:
THE OCEAN.
Likeness Of Hcavenl
Agent OF Powerl
Man is thy victim,
Sbipwrecks thy dowerl
Spices and jewels
Form valley and sea,
Armies and banners
Are buried in thee!
What are the riches
OF Mexico's mines,
To the wealth that far down
In the deep water shines?
The proud nayies that cover
The conquering vest
Thou fling'st them to death
With one heave Of thy breast
From the high hills that view
Thy wreck making shore,
When the bride of the mariner
Sbrieks al thy roar;
When, like lambs in the tempest,
Or news 10 the blast,
Ger thy ridge broken pillows
The canvass is cast.
How humbling to one
With heart and a soul,
To look on thy greatness
And list to its roll;
To think how that heart
In cold ashes shall be,
While the voice Of eternity
Rises from thee!
Yes! where are The cities
Of Ihebes and of TyreP
Swept from the nations
Like sparks from the fire;
The glory of Athens,
The splendour of Rome,
Dissolved--and forever
Like dew in thy foam.
But thou art almighty
Eternai-subhme-
Unweakened-unw
! Twin brother of Time!
Fleets, tempests nor nations
Thy glery can bow;
As the stars first beheld thee,
Still chainless art thou!
But hold, when thy surges
No longer shall roll,
And that ornaments length
Is drawn back like scroll;
1hen-Mea shall the spirit
That sigbs by thee now.
Be more mighty more lasting,
More chainless than thou!

Original Aaecdote. During the pas
sace down Sound Of one OF our ele-
CANT steamboats,, says correspondent,
the last summer, a gentleman not much
accustomed to polished society, came
so late to the dinner table, that he
found It difficult to obtain seat. He
stood some time with hands in pocket,
BOOKING wishfully at the smoking viands.
He was at last noticed by the captain,
who relinquished to him his own chair
and plate, when he commenced cary
ing pig that lay before him.
Having finished, he passed portions
of the dish TO all the ladies in his i'm
mediate neighborhood, and then heap
ed plate for himself. He soon per-
ceived lady who had not been served,
and inquired if she would be helped to
some pigi She replied in the affirma-
tive, and he accordingly handed her
the plate which he had reserved for
himself. Her ladyship feeling her Dig
nifty somewhat offended at so bountiful
a service, observed with protrudedlips,
loud enough to be heard all around
~ don't to0nt cart lOddi"-The gen.
tleman, at her remark, became an OBJ
lect of attention of all at his end ofthe
table, and determining to retort upon
her for her exceeding ciYility, watched
her motions, and observed that she had
dispatched the contents o. the plate
with little ceremony. When this was
accomplished, he cried out "Madam
if you'll back your cart up this way, III
give you another loadr'-N. y. Gaz.
Rirer of Vinegar.-In South Amer.
lea, near Popayan, is river called in
the language of the country Rio Vina-
gre. 1t takes its source In very ele.
waited chain of mountains, and after a
subterraneous progress of many miles,
il re-appears, and forms a magnificent
cascade of upwards of 800 feet in
height. When a person stands beneath
this point, he is speedily driven away
by very fine shower Of acid water,
which irritates the eyes. NJ. Boussing-
alt, wishing TO ascertain the cause OF
this phenomenon, analysed the water
of the river, and found among other
substances sulphuric and hydrochloric
acids. The foihwing is the result OF
the analysis:-Sulphuric acid, 0,000I0;
hydrochloric acid, 0,0009I; alumine,
100000; chalk, O,0OO13; soda, 0,O00-
IL; sick, 0,OO023; oxyde of iron and
