Proud dream rsplendcnt fate

Before eternity subdued alone,
A troubled glance did up TO heaven ascend
That mercy's sign had touched the scorniui ma1,

Our deeds and heroes not weighed the same.

Speak without dread, He compEehends thy thought,

IMPROVEMENT IN NAvIGArloN-Lieut NJ. f.
Maury of the T. S. Navy, and present Supcrin-
tendent of the Photographed Office, has pre-
scented paper to the National Institute recon-
intending that all merchant ships eprovided with
Ncharts of sailing directions on which shall be
daily registered al observable facts relating 10
winds, currents and other phenomena OF import
ance and interest, for the foundation OF a true
theory of the winds. The substitution of :. great
circle sailing" for the usual method of "rumb
sailing particularly by steamers, is also recon-
mended; and there can be no doubt OF its being
the course to which navigatorS at all times, in
open sea, should make the object of their approx
imation, and this simply because the great circle
is to the sphere what straight line is to plane
surface. Georgetown ID. c. Adv. Is, Aug.
