THE FORGOTTEN.
BY MISS HALL.

A dirge for the forgotten
No place is for their name,
In solemn page Of history,
Orpoetry's roll Of fame.
They lived, and were cherished,
Lies grefs and Joys they bore,
But their memory hath persisted,
Their tomb.stones tellno more.
A few bright names are enshrined above
Rv the hero sisword and the poat'aloye
A few proud names with magic thrill,
In the hearts of men are lingering still
But we hear no more, by plain or shore,
The names that the forgotten bore.
The beautiful forgotten !
Their eyes Of love and mirth,
Their locks Of wavering sunshine
No moro rejoice the earth.
The proud hart bowed before them,
And monarchs owned their sway
The starry heavens DER them
Were less adored than they,
There are forms that Eden's selfmight own,
ChiselIed, cold and fair, in marble stone;
The painter has treasured the glance, the
smile,
Worn by some roster in royal piles;
But we see no more, the wide earth DER,
The looks that the forgotten wore,
The wise and brave forgotten
They Of the bearing high,
They Of the thought engraven brow,
The deep and solemn eye,
The generous emotion,
The deeds so brave and true,
The knowledge like the oceans
Whose depths no mortal knew.
Thechanee discoveries name we Ink
With mountain, peak, and rivers brink;
The conqueror's guilt, the traitors same,
The statesman's art save many name
But we hear no more, by plain or shore,
The names the wise forgotten bore,
The lovediandwept forgotten
The gentle and the sweet,
Whose voice and step and kindly smile
Twas happiness to greet
The sunlight, Of the princely board,
The joyof cottage hearth,
Free were theirwarm affections poured,
And innocent theiF mirth.
Though often the poets harp rings loud
With he melody Of title proud,
And wealth has craven bis memory where
Proud palaces rise and temples fair;
Yet We heaflno more the wild earth Ger,
re names that the forgotten bore.

A VERMONT JUDGE.

The author of"Letters from a Landscape Painter,
in a notice Of Burlington, Vt, says:
~ would mention, in this connexio1 Of Judge
and would remark, that his mortal part is six feet
and half high, and weight nearly four hundred
pounds, and perfect counterpart in body well
mind Of the immortal Jack Fatstaff lie is the pro-
prietor of the largest grazing farm in New England,
which contains three thousand and the pres
ent moment gives food to nearly four thousand sheep.
The Judge is Of the most hospitube of men, and
having spent portion of his life rapper in the
wilderness, and another as member Of Congress,
there is end to his fund Of Stories which he tells
with an admirable grace One concerning himself,
young, poor and somewhat idle in his habits, he
CHANGED TO stop at country store where he was
known, for the pupose of purchasing handkerchief,
which the shopkeeper refused to let him have on
credit The youth exasperated, that he
swore that he would one day purchase the whole
property Of the man, and is singular fact, that the
identical store, and all the possessions Of that
now Incorporated in the immense estate of Judge
Mech. A similar story is told Of MIR Aston, (who
dealt in furs Lake Champlain with the Judge)
and the Aston House, that it would seem that
some people born to become rich. And what is
the strangest thing of all, Nh Mech is great trout
fisherman, and Of course of genius. About
month ago he caught one thousand in three days.
which story readily believe, but cannot vouch
for the truth of the statement heard, that he ate
two hundred and forty of the little fellows at one

A GREAT NATURAL. CURIOSITY.

late number Of the Dayton (Ohlo) Transcript
mentions discovery Of most singular and exlraor-
dinary character, which is to be seen in Delaware
County, in Ohio, about miles north Of Col.
umbus, the seat of Government The Transcript re-
marks, that, although it is of the novel and
curious things in natural history yet has never been
made public, or been made known TO the scientific
world 1t mas, heretofore, entirely escaped the no.
ce of scientific men, from the fact Of its being in an
obscure place, and no account Of it over having
been in public prints. The Transcript says:--
"Some time about the year 1918, two men, by the
names OF Davis and Richards salt boilers by profess
sion, commenced boring for sal water in the bed Of
the Scioto river, near the place mentioned After
having bored about fifty feet through solid rock,
they came upon stream of white sulphur water, of
the strangest kind The auger with which they were
boring sunk suddenly something like Two feet, which
is, probably, the depth Of the stream bur- such was
the pressure Of the water, that the auger was forced
up agan-and large waits had to be attached to ii,
in order to keep it to its place, and enable them to
bore further. They continued TO bore on, however,
until they got about four hundred feet below the sui.
phur stream, when they struck upon salt The
size of the auger about two and a half inches in
diameter When they took it out the jet of sui hur
water up to the height Of about twenty feet a.
bove the surface of the river
ain order to obtain 10 the salt water below
they procured strong copper pipe, and attempted to
force il down TO the place where it was to be found
But, whenever it reached the sulphur stream, such
was its force and pressure, that the pipe was COM
Pleoly hattened, as entirely to prevent the pas
sage of winter through it All subsequent attempts to
insert pipe proved aoor,ive and after prosecuting
the work a, intervals, for several years, the project
was entirely abandoned. After enlarging the orifce
made by the auger at the top, wooden stock TWEEN
ty feet in height, was inserted; yet, the top
ofhis, such the force of the stream that il re-
in it. From this stock, pipe conveys Tho water to
spring house Of the bluff banks OF the river
! The stream has been running for twenty-sx years,
and yet its strength and force undated. Those
who have recently examined it, say that it is capable
of throwing up stream, ten inches in diameter from
eighty 10 ninety feet high; and the water can thus be
obtnned to turn lage mill.
"fhe whole matter lay in obscurty until sholt
time since, whcn our fellow citizen Mr. ~ Hart, ac-
cidcntaly heard Of the circumstance and bought the
land upon which j, is situated It was from him that
learned the foregoing facts. The stream furnish.
es good white sulphur as is now known It j.
strongly impregnaed with gas, and Possesses valuable
medicinal properties The place, in which it is stu
ated. il in fine healthy region; and the country
round about is beautiful and rolling, and admirably
| adapted TO fishing and hunting"

The election for Congress and members
of the Legislature takes place in the Old
Dominion about the 4th Thursday of April
We suppose it will be an animated one
Upon the result depends the reelection OF
Mf. Rives, the late Whig Senator, or a
Locofoco. We see that John M. Bolts is
again a candidate for Congress in the
Richmond district. 1t viii be remembered
that the Legislature Gerrymandered the
district for the sole purpose of defeating
Mr.. Bolts, which they did by 80 votes on
ly; and that by fraud, at the late election
We hope success may attend the manly
efforts Of Mr.. Bolts and his friends. He is
a true Wing.
