THE DEATH OF HENRY D.

"Thore is no name given under he7yen whereby
men can be saved but our Lord Jesus Christ"
The village of c. is situated on the
southwestern coast of England, in one OF
those cxquisi,cly beautiful valleys, which
seem secluded by the lofty hills, which cm-
brace every side but that which is washed bv
the ocean, from the world and all its turmoil.
Twenty years before the period at which |
write, c. had been merely small fishing
town, scarcely known beyond its immediate
precincts. But, about that period, gentle
man who had succeeded to an estate in the
neghborhood, struck by the exceeding bean
" of the situation and the sofIness of the eli
mate, built a small residence for IA part of the
summer months. Some of his visitors
charmed with the loveiness of the spot, were
induced to follow his example. House after
house was added, until c. became water

for those afflicted with pulmonary diseases.

pendages Of bathrooms, and libraries. c.
was happy alike in what it had and had not.
| The small town remained nearly in sta;u quo.
The clear and rapid stream which wound
round the base of the hills was too shallow to
bear a boat on its waters and the road
which ran by its side. and which afforded the
only means of access for carriages, was none
of the most easy. In word c. posses
sed, in addition to its other advantages, that
of tranquility. The parish church was sit
uated at distance of four miles ; and the in
cumbent, true and faithful minister of his
Lord, had associated with himself three cler-
gymen as curates, to assist him in the care OF
an extensive and populous parish. One OF
these, lately appointed, had the town Of c.
especially committed TO his charge. The
archdeacon who held the living had felt tina,
"A place, whittier SO many resorted in the
| hour of sickness and sorrow, had peculiar
need of the spiritual aid and consolation of a
minister of Christ. Ii was from the gentle
man who filled this Office, learned the fol-
lowing narrative.
Towards the close of a fine autumn day, a
carriage was seen winding down the road
which led to c.. 1t drove to the door OF

Coat AND Coal MINES OF OUR COtN.
rnY.-Thcre are two theories concerning
the origin of Mineral Coal
First, that it is decompo.ed Vegetable
matter.
Secondly, that it is the result of chrys,ai.
cation. The former theory is generally re-
ccivrd by Geologisls-from the following
proof
jet, (Which is of vegetable origin) by be.
ing heated m a gun barrel may be reduced
to coal. 2. 1t is often of woody, fbrous
nature.
Vegetables are CONVEX ted into coal by the
united action of moisture, heat, and exclu-
sion Of air. The heat is produced by vol.
canic action, either by the volcanic contents
being poured upon the vegetables, or by the
internal heat below. Dlercn, degrees {
heat make different degrees of coal. The
Bf"m'nons is made by the last degree of
heat; anthracite may be made from tie

SONG OF THE LADIES.
Arr" Washing Day"

The bards of late have done us wrong,
We deem it but fair play,
Monopolizcd our good old song,
The dreaded Washing Day"
The women on that day, of old,
Would storm and fret away,
No,c-no Bit they ever scod,
But sing and talk of Clay.
We knit and sew, and chat and sing,
And write and work away.
And all the proceeds we will bring
To aid the cause of Clay.
"The very kittens" too, would fain
Our mirh and elee partake,
Hurrah for Cloy-thcy speak as plain
As ever kittens spake.
Our knitting balls they nimbly roll,
And frisb, and jump, and play;
Poor kitiens-if they had a SOUL
They'd lo'l the ball for Clay.
Wen knit and sew, &c.
The loros make dreadful rout,
And call us "Biiush Wings"
But that we care no more about
Than Jcremiah's figs.
To work upon materials raw,
Such tools will never do,
Wnh Polk and Texas for their saw,
And libel for their glue
Well knit and sew, &c
They ask, "what Henry Clay has DONE"
That trc revere him so,
We shink that every mothers son
or common sense should know.
And we in turn would ask Of them,
What they're conrending for
We 20, say ev-ahem-ahcm
For Polk-frce Trade and Dorr.
We'll knit and sew, &c.
And if to QUIZ us is their plan,
We're ready for tie joke,
A, any time we'll weigh our man
With little Jimmy Polk;
For as ninny 10 a whale,
Would be the odds we deem,
M sooner woull they MONT The scale,
Than Polk would kick the beam.
Wen knit and sew, &c.
They tell us ire had better drill
1.-THE young ideas TO shoot
Yes, gallant sirs. we surely will,
And find the game to boot.
Wen teach them first, to take good aim,
And then to fire away,
AT Migrants, who would blast the fame a
OF our own Harry Clay.
We'll knit and sew, &c.
Denied our vote, well make amends
And work some other way,
With all o~learts, and heads and pens,
Wen aid the cause OF Clay;
Where'er defcen, in their might,
Our sinewy friends are found,
Our my strength we will unite
And give the ! all bound.
Wen KIM and sew, &C.
Yes! gallant Whlgs-wha,'cr beiide,
Till you the victory gain,
Like Har and Aaron by your side,
Your hands we will sustain.
And when the lautels you have won,
TO us the prize convey,
Oh! were it ours to place them on
The noble brow of Clay. IRah,ray A
