sAm that CIilters is not Cold,

Our readers will neither rclinquish their
hats nor take OF their bonnots when we in
form them that sall that glittcrs is not gold,
but some Of them will doubtless conclude
that they have heard the remark before. Old
as lie the saying, we frequently meet with
new instances OF the truth.-Whcn we see
a gentleman in white hid gloves, a golden
headed cane in his hand, large quantti Of
hair about his face, and rings and cha ms dis.
played in great profusion, we are forcibly re.
minded of the saying, 'all that gtters is net
gold,'
When we sec a man making extraordinary
protcnsions TO piety, distributing religious
tracts and magazines, making long aud loud
aro)cr5 in the synagogue, and at the same
time know him to be destitute Of ail tho
fine qualities (such as faith, hope and char
ityD which would be characteristic Of the
devoted Christian, we naturally conclude that
'all that gitlers is not goJ.'
When we see the hungry politician minglc
with the dear people, and hear Tim inquire
SO kindly about their loving wives and alice
tionate children-manifos'in the greatest in
tercst in their wefarc--it appears 10 Us thar.
'aiI MA, gl,vcHs IS not gold,
When we see a man giving Narcc and FASH
ionable parties, inviting to his house the cod
lings OF a whole city, and at the same lime
know him to be without sufficient food and
clothing for his family, are we no. right in
thiDeiDg that 'all that glitters is not gold.'
When we see young Miss, of whom it may
be said, 'She tolls not, neither does she spin,'
and yet fares sumptuously every day. sup
ported by ndulgent parents, and worship
ped by numberless butterflies of fashion it
occurs to US that 'all that glitters is not
gold.'
When VIC see a young man reclining on
the laurcls OF his ancestors, and hear him

himself on the fact that their blood flows
through his Gins, and at the same time know
him to be utterly worthless aud Abandoned,
and somewhat indebted to divers useful me.
chanics We have slight impression that sal
that gIiiters is net gold.'
'All that glitters is not s5ld,' we exclaimed
the other evening, as sitting ia the Theatre,
we listened to the remarks Of a friend
bout a gentleman on the opposite side. The
subject of conversation was dressed in the
extreme Of fashion. His hair was thoroughly
oiled and nicely combed over his ears-his
vest was Of sTotless white, and his kid gloves
of the best qualr on his fingers were sew
eral costly rings; dimond breast pin was os-
tentatiously worn; and with the assistance OF
BARRIERS and cologne, he was perfumed like a
milliner.'
'who is that distinguished looking individ-

Captain.

THE ETERNAL RIVER.

BY oTwAY CURRY.
Beyond the silence, beyond the gloom
OF the vale of death, and the dreary tomb
Beyond the sorrow, beyond the sin
OF earthly ages, its waves begin.
Along the slope of its margin bright,
The groves rise upi land of light,
A nd shining floods Of the crystal rills
Come leaping down from the jaspar hills.
md all the millions who take their birth
In the dark old chimes of the ancient earth,
When the strife, and grief, and pain of the past
Are all forgotten, will glide at last,
Ay, crowned with glory and gladness glide
Along the sweep of that radiant tide;
While all before them, and all around
Shall the ceaseless song of the seraph sound
Amidst the murmuring fountains
OF everlasting life,
Thy spirit, like bounding bark
With songs and gadness rife,
Goes gliding to the palmy shore
That lies in sunny light before.
Glide on, glide on, rejoicing
The glores Of that strand
Are tinted by the golden morn
OF an immortal land,
Whose lingering hope and pearly ray
Shall never fade nor feet away.
The silvery tide will bear thee
Amid the sound and bloom
Ofmany green and blessed isle,
Whose shining banks illume
Each wandering bark andpathway dim.
Along the passing pillows brim.
A nd soon the winds shall wait thee
Among the groves that lave
The emerald of their bending boughs
In life's eternal wave:
And round thee shall the music rise
of happier worlds and calmer skies.

LETTERS OF MARouE.-Information has been
received in this city of the fact that the steam
er Tay in its last trip from Vera Cruz to Hs-
vans took ont three hundred letter. Of nsarqte,
with naturalization papers comforting the rights
and privilege Of Mexican citizens upon all
who would sail under them. This information
comes in an authentic form. Il was express
ed from Mexico on the evening Of the Both
ult, and reached Vera Cruz in time for the
Tsy-the vessel By which it was taken TO
Havana, and thence 1T was brought here by late
arrival.
A letter from Havana has also been received
announcing the arrival there Of these letters
Of marque. The writer was Of the opinion
that the Spanish Government would not per-
nit the letters to be used in the port Of Ha-
vana, but adds, as naturalization papers offer

it is probably some Of them may slip out upon
