The Weekly charlottesville beautiful steamer
Mnzeppa," Captain Griffin, makes her regular
trip this evening, after the arrival Of the O'Clock
cars, visiting the Bay of 81 Louis & Pass Christian.
None but those who have participated in these
pleasant excursions can imagine all their a,trac-
tons. On these calm moonlight nights to glide
across the slit'ering lake is, of itself, small
enjoyment, while a battle in the green, salt, sea
before the sun is up refreshes the feeble and
invleorates the strong. Oysters are there to be
had, grntutously, Of the finest quality, and in the
greatest abundance, while at St Cyr's and Saulnys
may be had such feast Of fish as ST Peter had
never q notion of.
Let those go no'c uho neuer trent before,
find those who Always go, no,o go the more.
The Washington Guards will take passage BY
the Mazcppa, and form their camp at Pass Chris.

We have asserted that the round or pebble
stone pavement was being exploded in all the
northern cities and in Europe. Not mail arrives
but brings US pnpers, containing strong and cogen.
arguments against it and in favor of the wonden
pavements and the osphalte. The following article
on the subject is from the Philadelphia United
States Gazette. 1t is less strenuous in support of
the wooden pavement than other papers we have
seen.
Wooden pavement can he laid at less cost in
this city than in New York, Philadelphia, or Bal
timore, and SO tar from costing twenty per cent
more than the round stone, no doubt can be enter.
tanned that if suitable person were TO contract
tor it on an extensive scale, il would cost con-
| siderably less at first, and not one twentieth az
much for repairs.
The experiments that hove been made Of this
mode of pavement in St Charles and Carondele,
streets were oa too small scale, the blocks were
not properly laid and yet, they are in every respcc,
superior to the round stone and will stand longer
without any additional expense.
| The advantages of hexagonn wood block pave
mcnt are numerous and evident. First, the whole
expenditure for such pavement, will be discussed
| among our own citizens, and remain with them ;
second contracts for laying i, mny be distributed
among many mechanics, thereby causing the
! general paving of the city to be acceera ed, and
sooner completed, and giving employment to many
worthy men, instead of fattenine with the public.
money, single rich monop"list; the pavement
when laid will require less Gust for repair, single
horse will haul heavier loads over it, with less
injury TO his teel and legs and ruin to his consti-
tuition, than three horses will now haul the same
load over the round stone pavement; will, this
kind of pavemt nj, drays, carts and carriages ma,

The round stone pavement has been the cnuse
why many persons decline keeping carriages; and
there can be no doubt, that if our streets were
paved with wood or square stone, the number Of
| hacks and private vehicles would be greatly in
creased, and the city revenue consequently greatly
augmented.
The people, yes nine-'enhs of the people OF this
city. are in favor of the wooden pavements CT

majority of them would prefer to sec our streets
laid with flat boat gunwales, temporarily, than
that the round stone pavement should be con.

their enormous power they might convey, to and

their towage would pay no inconsiderable portion
Of their voyages expense: and as recent news is so
vitality important to cotton growing community,
no charge would be deemed too high for the car

active IN procuring line of European steamers,
yet her proximity to New York renders such a

THE QUEER PACK.

A gentleman in an English village lately
went on journey, after leaving express in
functions to his house-keeper not to admit
any body whatsoever, to remain all night
at the house.
The third night after his departure, a
man, apparently pedlar, came with a
strange looking pack, and begged, as it was
nightfall, the privilege of staying all night.
This the housekeeper refused, but was at
length persuaded to let the pack remain,
saying, "there is no harm in it 'spose."
Shortly after the mans departure, Tom,
harum-scarum boy of l6, and the only
person about the place except the woman
and the old man, came in from hunting
with his gun.
Having learned how the pack came there

LOVERS.

Every observer of human nature must
have perceived that lovers not only do not
exercise the power of ridicule over each
other, but they cannot conceive that the idol
OF their Imagination should be the subject
OF 1t. AS intercourse in marriage becomes
familiar, and the little graces of etiquette are
laid aside, and the idol, though not less
worshipped, becomes less sacred. She is
not the deity ofthe temple, but of the house
hold; she is no longer the great Diana of
Ephesus, approached at a distance with
mysterious rites, but one of Lares, meeting
the familiar glance at every turn. This diff
ference is never felts keenly by woman,
as when she first discovers that it is possible
for her to appear ridiculous to her husband.
A man who differs from his wife and reasons
with her, selflove; but, the moment he
laughs at her, she feels that the golden bowl
of married sympathy is broken.

Radishes.-This root being liable TO be
eaten by the worms, the following method
is recommended for raising them: Take
equal quantities of buckwheat bran, and
fresh horse-dung, and mix them well an(
ploutsfplly.in the ground bJ.diggipg. Sid
denly after this great fermentation will be
produced, and numbers Of toadstool, (lind
of muchroom) VII start up in forty-eight
hours. Dig the ground over again and sow
the seed, and the radishes will grow with
great rapidity and be free from the attacks
of insects. They will grow uncommonly
large. Buckwheat bran is an excellent ma
nure itself.-Farmer' assistant.

Improvement Of candles.-It is found
by experience if you steep the cotted wick
in lime water, in which considerable
quantity of nitrate of potassa has been dis
solved, purer or brighter flame secured,
and superior light produced, a more perfect
combustion is insured, snufing is rendered
nearly as superfuence as in wax candles,
and the candles thus treated do not run.
The wicks must be thoroughly dry before
the tallow is put to them.

SPRING

"How beautiful Is spring with its buds
and blooms, and perfumes; covering the
earth with robe of glory: gay with the
voice of birds, the hum of insects, and the
laughter ofthe young spirits revelling in its
enjoymens How profusely doth it send
forth its ten thousand messengers to herald
the approach of summer. Nature so lately
paralyzed by the chill of winter, rouses her.
self from her lethargy; and the blue sky
CLEANS above scene of renovated light and
beauty. The grasp of man is upon the
spade and the scythe; labour and gaiety go
hand in hand; the promise of new harvests
is bright upon the earth. And yet how
cold does the accustomed eye look upon
the wonderful transition which il affected
by the magical power of this most beauti-
ful of seasons We behold the tall trees
which have been for months dark, sapless
and unlovely, graduly put forth their buds,
those buds burst forth with the richness OF
their own treasures, and expand into leaves
! and blossoms; we see the seed sown by the.
husbandman, and we think notin wonder of
the miracle, as we trace the tender green of
the young plants which have sprung from
that slight seed; we only exclaim in aston
ishment and vexation should an occasion
arrive wherein it falls. Beautiful spring;
firstborn of nature On whom she lavished
her most lovely gifts; like the hearts earliest
dream, decking every thing on earth in
new and brilliant garb; making the eye beam
and the spirit swell by the potency of thy
gentle spell Summer may boast its warm
skies, and its thousand blossoms; autumn
may be rich in fruits and grains; but from
thee came the first fair promise of all these:
from thee came the first blue heaven, the
first bright flowers, and the germ of the gold
en- harvest"

The following sweet ballad of" The Blind Boy" is
BIZ Mss 2. II. Gould.


o teIm the foIm of the summers soft air,
That tosses so gently the curs of my hair;
1t breathes on my lips, and fans my soft cheek,
But gives me no answer, though often speak;
feel itplay DER me refreshing and light,
And yet cannot touch it, because I've no sight
And Music-what is it, and where does it dwell 7
I sink and mount with its cadence and swell,
Whilst thrd to my heart with the deep going strain
Till pleasure excessive seems turning to pain,
Now what the bright color of music may be,
Will any one tell mel for cannot see.
The odOrs of flowers that are hovering nigh,
What are they! on what kind of wings do they fy?
Are these shining angels who come to delight
A poor little child who knows nothing of sight!
The face of the sun never comes to my mind;
Oh tell me what light is because ! am blind

he eyed it attentvely, and at length says
he "thats a queer pack dad, it's living
pack, and I'll shoot it." So saying, he lev
elled his gun towards it.
Nonsense!" said the housekeeper, .you
are surely not gong to hurt that mans
pack, TomP
The moment after Tom fred, a stifed
groan was heard, and the blood gushed
from the pack on the floor.
The neighbors were now sent for, and
on opening the pack, it was found to con-
tain the body of man, with butcherknife
in his hand, brace Of pistols, and whis-
tie tied to his neck.
Not doubling that he was one of a gang
Of robbers, the neighbors armed themselves
and about i o'clock blew the whistle; and
shortly afterwards hearing persons in the
yard, shot and killed four, who proved to
be citizens of the next village, that had in.
tended to rob the house, and no doubt mur'
der the inmates. On his return, the pro.
prietor rewarded him handsomely, sent him
to school, and dying five years afterwards,
left him the bulk of his property.
