POETRY
THE LOST SHIP
BY MISS LANDON.

Deep in the silent waters.
A thousand fa,homs low,
A gallan, ship lies pershing--
She founded long ;go.
There are pale sea-nowers wreahing
Around her port holes now,
And spars and shining coral
Encrusl her gallan, prov.
Upon the old deck bleaching,
White bones unburied shine,
While in the deep hold Hidden
Are casks Of ruby wine.
There are pistols, sword and carSine,
Hung on the cabin wall,
And many a curious dagger,
But rust has spoiled them all.
And can this be The vessel
That went so boldly forth.
With red flag of old England,
To brave the stormy north!
There were blessings poured upon her
When from her port sailed she
And prayers and anxious weeping
Went with her DER The sea.
And once she sent home letters,
And joyous once were they.
Dashed bul with fond remembrance
OF friend SO far away.
All! many heart was happy
That evening when they came,
And many a lip pressed kisses
On a Beloved name!
How liuIe those who read them
Deemed FAR below the wave.
That rhld, and sire, and lover.
Had found seaman's grave!
But how that brave ship perished,
None knew, save Him on high
no island heard her cannon,
No other bark was nlgh.
We only know from Eog5od
She sailed far o'or the muo--
We only koew v E q'aod

IL Is SAID, bu: we cannot vouch for ia
correctness, that several public spirile /
wing gentlemen of the city of Utica felt so
much interest in domestic manufacturers.
and were so anxious TO give employment
to laborers, that previous to the late e!ec--
ton they conceived the project OF erecting
n large factory in Utica-lhe wheel which
was TO put the machinery in motion to be-
turned by wafer taken from the Mohawk
river, and carried in buckets, by two til III
sand men, up five hundred feet, and emp
tied on the wheel. Since the result Of the
election has been ascertained, and the pros
pect Of The modification oflhe tariff made
SO apparent, this magnificent project has
been abandoned, and thousands Of laborers
thrown out Of employment in Consequence.

HrRTITAGE ToMB.-The editor of the
Detroit Free Press, who recently made ali
excursion TO the residence Of Gen. Jackson
thus describes the family vault:
One Of the most interesting scenes about
the Hermitage, and one eminen,y charac-
teris,c Of its distinguished occupant, is the
monument erected by Gen. Jackson in his
garden to the memory of his deceased wife,
The whole, from top to base. is built of
marble. First there is vault of circu'a
form, twelve or fifteen feet in diame,cr.-.
In the centre stands pedestal of square
hewn marble, six or eight feet high, and
the whole is surmoun,ed and sheltered by
marble roof In the vault, on one side
Of the pedestal, are the remains Of his wife,
covered with marble slab. on which is
engraved a sublime inscription Of her vir-
tues and worth On the other side is a
place prepared for his own remains, which
is also covered with marble slab, on
which there is no Inscription and long,
