Will swell in tho wood thickets. Yet few

The bird shall look into the last years nest,
And sing 10 the young morning Weeds shall spring
Glossy and green beside the fountains marge,
And tremble in the sunshine. Flowers shall bloom
Upon the woody hills, and by the side
OF the rough forest roads, and in The depths
OF the green thiclots, and upon the graves:
Nor longer shall tho fIosts orwinter shine
Amid the letters ulptured on the tomb.
The seasons keen severity shall pass,
A nd soft winds fresh with scent Of evergreen,
Shall warn the husbandman when it is time
To wend unto his labor. He shall go
Rejoicing TO his fields, for not in vain
Hath God given promise that The earth shall WELD
Her fair increase in season. Winters snow
Whitens the hill tops, and the blast comes strong
And icy through the woods, but in due time
The yellow grain cast IN the falow land
Springs up into the harvest. Wisely TINS
Runs the perpetual harmony Of things;
Thus Weakening to now youth, beyond the change
And grossness of tins dull moraliy
From wo's dark winter tme the soul shall burst,
And seek lis proper country. Calmly goes
The good man 10 his slumber-calmly thus

PHONOGRAPHY-A NEW SCIEN CE
A late English work has the following
account of this new discovery, viz: the
art of writing By sound:
"Another art has been lately added att
various forms Of abbreviated writing
which seems far more available than any
which have been hitherto invented. .Itis
called PhonographW or literally writing
by sound-that is, writing each word ex.
actly as it is PRONOUNCED. 1t does away
with the tedious method Of spelling, for i,
has distinct signs for all the sounds of the
human voice. II is applicable to all Ian.
guages. We have before us a book con.
tanning part Of the Scriptures in the En-
glish, French, German, Chinese, and He
brew, all written in the photographic
character. Nothing has yet been invent.
ed whicheSmes so near to s'the universal
character,n| so much desired by Bishop
Wiliins. IF generally introduced, it
would be~a-Sery valuable acquisition to
the deaf and dumb, enabling them 10 ex-
press their thoughts with almost as much
rapidity as we can do by speech"
1t is but simple Justice to an excellent
teacher Of ours (Mr. Hitchcock), to state
that he has shown us an engraved illustra-
ton of this new art, which he had caused
to be executed long time ago--long be-
fore the notice in the English paper ap-
peared. He has also the most incontro-
vertible evidence that he is the original dis
coverer OF the new science of writing by
sound. We shall take another occasion to
speak of him and his claims.
We observe that the subject has been
presented to Congress. Mr.. Merrick, in
presenting memorial in the Senates en-
tered into quite an animated explanation
of its nature, origin an progress,and spoke
of it as calculated to produce more impor-
tant results than any other science of the
age, as it aimed at the establishment Of a
universal language, composed of natural
sound, by which all nations, whether
savage or civilized, would be ena-
bled to communicate and interchange
ideas. Mr.. Merrick, in lauding the new
science, even went so far as to advocate
the notions of some oriental phi loso-
pliers, that animals have language by
asserting, that it would enable us even to
comprehend the sounds Of animals, and
understand their speech. The memorial
was from citizens Of Baltimore, asking the
assistance Of government in prosecuting
the study Of the science Saturday Cour-
ter. No.
