mory steals upon us like dizziness up
on .he brain. Some object around
which our hopes clustered may have
vanquishea when almost within our
grasp. We felt the keenest Of disap-
pointment and even now the remem-
brance brings sadness to tho soul. We
may have seen the grave close over
those whom we loved, and that grave
seemed the sepulcbre Of our hopes J.

A BACHELORS COMPLAINT.

They're stepping of. the friends knew,
They're going one by one
They're taking wives to tame their lives,
Their jovial days are done,
Ican't get one old crony now
Tojoin me in spree,
They've all grown grave domestic men,
They look askance on me.
hate to see them sober'c down
The morry boys and true
hate to hear them sneering now
At pictures fancy drew.
care not for their married cheer,
Their puddngs and their soups,
And middle aged relations round
In formidable groups.
And though their wife perchance may hare
A comely sort Of face,
And at the tables upper end
Conduct herself with grace
hate the prim reserve that Teigns,
ho Ceutiou uuu kuc btuto,
Ihate to sec my friend grow vain
or furniture and plate.
o! give me back the days again
When we have wander'd free,
And stole the dew from every flower.
The fruit from every tree
The friends loved-they will not conc
They've all deserted mo
They sit at home and toast their toes,
Look stupid, and sip tea.
BY Jove. they 60 to bed atten,
And rise at halfpast nine
And seldom do thoy now exceed
A pint or SO Of wine
They play at whist for sixpences,
They very rarely dance.
They never read word Of rhyme,
Nor open a romance.
They tslk--good Lord .--of politics,
OF taxes, and Of crops,
And very quietly, with their wives,
They 60 about to shops
They get quite skill'd in groceries,
And learn'd in butcher meat,
And know exactly what they pay
For every thing they eat.
Alas I! alas for years gone by,
And for the friends I've lost.
When no warm feeling Of the heart
Was child by early frost.
If these, be Hymen's vaunted joys,
I'D have him shun my door,
Unless he'll qucnch his torch, and live
Henceforth Bachelor.

OCEAN PHENOMENA.

A naval friend of high responsibility
and intelligence, who has seen in a re-
cent number of the Journal, an account
of u singular ball Of fire which fell on
board of the ship Sir Edward Hamilton
has given US the annexed extract from
the Journal of passenger on board the
ship Pactolus, Capt George Wilson,
while on passage from vaIperaiso to
Marblehoad, Massachusetts -
| AFTER succession of heavy gales
from the time we sailed from Valparai-
SO, till we were nearly up with Cape
Horn, in which we lost our boat, &c,
&c. and while in the act Of taking in a
close reefed foresail, having scudded
her under that sail as long rs a due re-
gard for the safety of the ship would al.
low---at about IL o'clock A. NJ. we were
onveloped for a few seconds in almost
total darkness by large black clond
from which came wind and hail, either
Of which was sufficient to take person
of his feet, provided he had hold OF
nothing out Of this cloud came ball
of FIRE, about the size Of 80 ID. shot,
1t descended to within 8 or feet of the
long boat, where it was seen by every
person on board, previous to Its exple-
sion which was several seconds after its
first appearance. The report of this
non descript thing, was as loud as that
of4 or sharp muskets fired together.
1t had the effect to knock down nearly
every man on deck---without, however,
iniuring any of them, if ercept tho in
Jury received from the fright. which was
almost death. The air was sulphurous
for some time after the bursting Of the
ball. The chief mate was the first who
came to his senses, and observing that
the men were, from fear, unable to at
tend to the duty of the ship, he called
out, Come on /! It's only Cape Horn
snoU baH!'
| cannot describe the effect it had up
on me, better than by comparing it with
severe shock Of an electric mechine-
to which it was very similar. Its effect
upon the chief mate was. he said, as il
an immense weight was pressing him
down, and think he remarked at the
same time, that he had once been struck
with lightning and that the sensation
was similar. No person on board (and
we had some old, very old SALTS, had
ever witnessed any thing of the kind
before. 1t leN no trace Of its having
come on board, except upon our menl-
orics. and from mine am certain il
will never be erased. PROV. Jour.

Interesting Chemical Discovery. Par
is, Oct. IL. A singular aud highly i'm
portant discovery has recently been
made by Messrs. Capron and Boniface,
chemists, at Chaillot. BY a process
which they keep a secret, and to which
they have given the name Of 'Mumifi-
cation they have succeeded, after pass
ing number of years in experiments, in
50 modifying and perfecting the known
processes of preserving bodies as to re-
duce them to mummies, leaving all the
forms unaltered. All the elements ol
disorganization which show themselves
in :he human body so soon after death
are completely destroyed, and not only
the external body but the vescera, the
lungs, the hears, the liver, and even the
brain, are perfectly preserved I; the fea-
lures also remain so perfectly uninjnred
that correct portraits may be taken al
any length of time after death, and ns
the body is not enveloped in bandages
as in the Egyptian method, the natural
forms are perfectly preserved. The
operation requires but few days, after
which the dead bodies may be preserved
in room or vault, or inferred il the or
dinary way, without being accessible to
worms. They may also be exposed to
all the variations Of the air, either in a
standing or sitting position, without un-
dergoing any alteration.

MEMORY.

Plaintivs, even melancholy as it Oft
times may be, how frequently does the
mind love to turn back upon the scenes
that are gone by. How often are the
thoughts, drawn, insensibly as it were.
from the darkness of the future to the
twilight Of the past--to scenes that faint
ly glimmer though the cold and SOM
brous lapse of days, and months, and
years A pleasing melancholy comes
over the full soul, as the green spots on
the desert oflife come up before the eye
of the imagination, and ties US as strong
as those of'6rst love- bind US uncon-
sciously to scenes where once centered
all our joys. Such are the reminescen-
cos Of childhood and youth, such are the
forms pictured upon the sunny surface
Of the past--when the heart beats JOY
ously-when every path was strewed
with fowers--when all above was e
cloudless sky--and when all around us
was sunshine If ever man enjoys
happiness, it is ia the spring time of life
whom his hope first begins to bud and
blossom. To his Elusive eye the future
appears bright as the visions Of an ely
sian dream. But soon the frost of dis
appointment comes-old age, steals a.
long with silent tread'--and all but the
recollection of enjoyment perishes.
Still memory, like every thing else
connected with our worldly enjeyments
has its pleasures and its poins--its joy 9
and its sorrows. The latter too often
hold a melancholy predominence. Me-
mory's page is the record Of events
which have marked our chequred course
