0-The plate deposited in what is called
the Golden Cupboard" in Windsor Castle,
is valued at ninety millions of dollars. A
writer in the New York Courier. who notes
this fact, mentions that among other Clancy
goods" is the head of a lion of the size of
life, made of solid gold, the eyes of which
are of some precious stone, the teeth of very
large crystals; also, a peacock composed en-
tirely of diamonds and other precious stones.
These two pieces were taken from Tippoo
Sab at Seringapatam, and only form a very
small portion of the riches stolen at that
time by the English.

man for the job of catering for the city on his
own account. Their honors doubted his
ability to get mp a dinner equal to those of
Brigham and Wright, but he suggested that
he probably could, as he had himself got up
those for which the aforesaid gentlemen re-
ceived the credit. So this job was given
him and he clearly surpassed, in the ele-
gance and Injury of the affair, all that had
been done before. But we sec the papers do
not worry themselves TO give him any special
credit for the taste and genius he displayed.

the effort, the day being ~uncommonly sultry
and close.
During the whole course of his long life,
he has never been known TO have been med-
died with by other dogs, or TO have taken
any notice Of his species, nor to have receive
ed any i'll usage from any individ ual, man or
boy, by whom he is extensively known and
regarded as a privileged character. Hum
dreds having business at the post office, who
would unhesitatingly kick any other dog out
OF the road, step aside carefully, however
great the throng, rather than tread on or in
suit the noble brute. He may be seen occa-
%sionally summing himself at the door of the
Trust Company or Franklin Bank, or the
Bank Exchange, but is never guilty of lying
at the door of a private residence. My friend,
Rabbt Jonas, who believes in the %transmigra-
ton OF souls, suggests that the spirit which
anlmates LEAR was once that of "a public of
ficer, and of an individual of the most %aristo-
cratic bearing. Apart from the usual. instincts
and remarkable sagacity of dogs, there is
much that is mysterious and unaccountlble
in the history and habits of Lear, a part only
of which are here stated.
There have been more s%onnets, addresses,
&c. of which Lear is tie subject, than Stel-
la or Vanessa of Swift, or the Eaura of Pet
ldlIus OlG VI IleSt, WTllltn, as L DellGVe,
by a young lawyer of Cincinnati, whose
name is an heir loom of genius, military, po-
lltlcal, and oratorical, is rcpublished from
the Cincinnati Daily Gazette as appropriate
to this notice:
There is an old brown dog,
That roams about our streets.
But no one knows from whence he came,
Or where he sleeps or eats.
HIS name-his race-and business here,
Are hidden in IA fog,
lhere seems to me a mystery
About this old brown dog.

Which leads to the Gazette,
But never asks the news
Nor seems disposed TO bet.
lie dogs no master round,
Like most of his degree,
But through the longest winter day,
In one lone spot is he.
And there with head between his paws,
lie lies mid snow and rain,
AS though some Dogma wild and vague
PerpleXod his troubled brain.
Aud oftentimes | stop
And gaze, and try to trace
The mournlul thoughts that seem to fit
Across his wrinkled face.
Perhaps he dreams of older days
When filled was pleasures cup,
Ofdays Of sunshine, mirth, and Joy,
When he was but a pup.
The voice he once obeyed
May long have died away,
But still he waits to hear its call,
From weary day to day.
He dreams Of ancient times,
Nor can he quite suppress
A ~sigh-when visions real rise
OF bones-now m~arrowless.
Enough do not wish
TO pry in his affairs,
But on his breast he seems to bear
A weight of heavy cares.
His name-his race-his business here
Are hidden in a fog,
There seems TO be a mystery
About that dro'Cn old dog.

From Cist's Advertise,
The Old Brown Dog of the POSt-Ollcc.

One of the greatest curiosities of Cincin-
natl is LEAR, the old brOwn dor, who may be
seen at almost any hour of the day in the
purlieus of our city post Office, and as he has
not, and probably never had an owner, NAV
be numbered as one of the familiars of that
establishment.
Amidst the various succession Of pos tmas-
ters-during the whole incumbencies of
Burke, Taylor and Crawford-amidst all the
Presidential changes of Monroe, Adams,
Jackson, Van Buren,, Harrison, Tyler, and
Polk, he still holds his post. How far back
he made his first appearance the oldest inhab-
itants cannot tell, but | can find several who
have noticed and recollected him for twenty
years and more. During this period he was
known 10 follow no individual, even when
tempted by caressos or the offer of food in
fact he has never been known to receive food
from any person, invariably refusing when
offered at his post. He has been followed
by persons curious to ascertain where he
feeds, but by some singular process c~ontrives
to defeat their purpose, by disappearing the
instant their eye is turned to any other OBJ
ject, if but for one moment.
In each successive removal of the post-of-
hce he has always gone along, as if consider
ing himself a part of the establishment In

moveables, and remaining at the new office
ever since.

From Douglass JerrOid'S Magazine;
Man was not Made TO Mourn.

lilun huO lUb l1uuC w INlUulU.
There is a voice which haunts me still,
Where'er on earth | be
In lonely vale, on lofty hill,
And on the distant sea.
| hear it in the silent night,
And at the break of morn:
And aye, it crieth-dark or light
Man was not made to mourn!
In ev'ry stream that scaward flows,
That voice sllutes mine ear;
In every wind that round me blows,
Its thrilling notes | hear;
In ev'ry sound of Natures heart,
The cheerful or %forlorn,
This ever bears the better part
Man was not made to mourn!
The sun that glads the summer noon,
The light that blesseth all,
The myriad stars, the quiet moon,
The showers from heaven that fall,
The flowers which in our meadows grow,
Our mountain paths adorn-
All, all in their own fashion show
Man was not made TO mourn!
All Nature cries aloud-but man
Regards not natures voice
Peryerteth her benignant plan,
Her workmanship destroys;
From her fair book the brightest page
With impious hand was torn,
Yet still she cries, from age to age,
Man was not made to mourn
o gentlest mother! may thy child
Ere long thy lesson read
Embrace thy precepts, loving, mild,
Thy fraternizing creed;
Then shall the blessed end be known
For which he had been born;
And all shall feel, from zone to zone,
Man was not made to mourn!
