LITERATURE OF THE ScILLY IsLEs.-The
whole library of one of the Scilly Isles. consist
ed about a century ago, of the Bible and the
history of DIR. Faustus. The Island was popu-
leas and the western peasants being generally
able to read, the conjurer's story had been
handed from house to house until, from perpet-
ual thumbihg, little of his enchantments or his
catastrophe was left legible. On this alarming
conjecture meeting was called of the princi..
pal inhabitants, and proposal was made and
unanimously approved, that as soon as the
season permitted any intercourse with Corn
wall, supply of books should be sent for.
A debate now being in order to ascertain
what those books should be, and the result was.
that IN order should be transmitted TO book
seller at Penzanee, for him to send them s'soth-

MELODIA


by AMELIA
met once, IN my giIlish hours,
A creature soft and warm
Her eottage-bonnet filled with flowers
Hung swinging on her arm;
Her voice was sweet as the voice of love,
And her teeth were pure as pearls,
While her forehead lay like snow-whit
dove
In nest Of ut-brown eurls;
She was thing unknown to fame
Melodia was her strange sweet name.
| never saw an eye so bright
And yet so soft as hers;
1t sometimes swan in liquid light,
And sometimes swan in tears;
1t seemed beauty set apart
For softness and for signs,
But oh! Melodia's melting heart
Was softer than her eyes;
For they were only formed TO spread
The softness from her spirit shed
I've gazed on many brighter face,
But ne'er on one for years,
Where beauty left so sofia trace
AS it had left on hers;
But who can paint the spell that wove
A brightness round the whole,
Twould take an angel from above
To paint the immortal soul
TO trace the light, the Unborn grace,
The spirit sparkling DER her face.
Her bosom was a soft retreat
For love, and love alone,
And yet her heart had never beat
To loves delicious tone,
1t dwelt within the circle free
From tender thoughts like these,
Waiting the little deity
AS the blossoms waits the breeze,
Before it throws its leaves apart
And trembles like the loYe:touched heart
She was creature strange as fair,
First mournful and then wild,
Now laughing on the clear bright air
AS merry as a child,
Then melting down as soft as even,
Beneath some new control,
She'd throw her hazle eyes to Heaven,
And sing with all her soul
In tones as rich as some young birds
Warbling her own delightful words.
Melodia! oh how soft thy darts,
How gentle and how sweet!
Thy song unclaimed thousand hearts
And drew them to thy feet;
And as thy bright lips sang they caught
So beautiful ray,
That, as gazed, almost thought
The spirit of the lay
Had left while melting on the air
Its sweet expression painted there.
Sweet vision of that starry even!
Thy virgins beauty yet;
Next TO the blessed hope OF Heaven,
Is in my spirits set;
1t is a something shrined apart
A light from memory shed,
To live until this tender heart
On which it lives is dead,
Reminding me of brighter hours,
Ofsummer eyes, and summer flowers,

ANOTHER WING TRIUMPH--A special cleo
ton was held on Monday in the tenth Congress
ioaal district of Massachusetts,, to fill the seat
in the House of Representatives now occupied
by MFR. Henry Williams, one of the two Van Blu.
rem men now in Congress from that state. The
reader will recolect that at the general election
in November no choice was effected in that dis
trict. We have now the pleasure ofannouncing
the election of Mr. Borden, the Wing candidate,
by clear majority Of 3Ss. His plurality is $50.
His majority ever Williams is 729. Thus have

dent, his passions strong; and, amidst the null
tiplied scenes of temptation and excitement
through which he passed, it was his constant
effort and ultimate triumph to check the one
and subdue the other. His intercourse with
men, private and public, in every walk and
station, was marked with consistency, fit
ness to occasions, dignity, decorum, conde-
scension and mildness, respect for the claims
of Others, and delicate perception of the
nicer shades of civility, which were not more
the dictates of his native good sense and in
comparable judgment, than the fruits of long
and unwearied discipline. Sparks Life q

WeRDERFUL CLocKs.-Two very extTaor-
binary clocks were some time since presented
by the East India Company to the Emperor of
China, being entirely manufactured by English
artists. They were in the form of chariots,
each of which contained lady seated, leaning
her right hand on part of the chariot, under
which was clock, little larger than a shilling,
that struck, repeated, and went for eight days,
without requiring winding up. A bird was on
the lady's finger, finely modelled, and set with
diamonds and rubies, with its wings expanded
as if TO tly, and was made to flutter them for
considerable time on touching diamond but
ton. The body of this curious bird, in which
were the wheels that animated it, was less than
the 10th part of an inch. In the lady's left
hand was golden tube, with small round
box on the top, to which was fixed circular
ornament set in diamonds, which went around
in three hours. A double umbrella was over
the lady's head, supported by small 1uted
pillar, and under it was a bell that struck the
hour, though apparently unconnected with the
clock; and at the lady's foot was golden dog,
before which were two birds, set with precious
stones, and apparently flying away with the
chariot which, from another secret motion, is
contrived 10 run in any direction, while boy
appears to push forward. There were also
flowers, ornaments, and flying dragon all
set with precious stones, or formed of them,
and all the rest was made of gold most curl
ously executed, and presenting a wonderful
specimen of ingenuity and talent.-Lon. Pc.
