THE success of the illustrated Botany is n.
longer an experiment. For although il has been in
existai ce hut one year, already has circulation
Of about five thousand, sufficient number to
arr ant its support, which canno, be said Of any
other work OF The kind. Indeed. il is the only
work OF this chara, Ter published in this coul.
Try. which promises stability and long life. We
think tho pr osreci Of the second year of hi,
Botany are very flat'erirg. O:.e reason for the
opinion is, the fact that it is now very popular,
havil 6 ii large circle Of friends. Another very
ml or,al' reason is, the securing of an Editor for
the coming year, whose popularity as an auth or
in the various branches OF Natural Science, is so
extensive as to ea' e his name familiar TO evry stu
deaf IN the science in this country. We are full
y satisfied that the Botany will under The pres.
emf Editors, bear the seveIesi criticisms, and We
intend II shall become the standard work.
In the course OF It's publication, il will contain

The S:sy.Mill.
~ WILLIAM c. BRYANT.

n yonder mill rested
And sat me down to look
Upon the wheels quick glimmss,
And on the flowing brook.
A. in dream before me,
The saw with restless play,
Was cleaying through fir tree
It's long and steady way.
The tree through all its fibres
With living motion stirred,
And, in dirge-like murmer,
These solemn words heard:
ooh, thou who wanders, hither,
A timely guest thou art!
For thee this cruel engine
Is passing through my heart.
"When soon, in earth's still bosom,
The hours of rest begin,
This wood shall form the chamber
Whose walls shall close thee in"
Four planks-I saw and shudder'd-
Dropped in that busy mill;
Then as I tried to answer,
At once the wheel was still.

Mortality.
pY CHARLES SWAIN.

The house is. old, the house is cold
And on the roof is snow;
And in and out, and round about;
The bitter nisht-winds blow,
The bitter night-winds howl and blow,
And darkness thickens deep;
And oh, the minutes creep as slow
A. though they were asleep.
II used to be all light and song
And mirth and spirits gay;
The day could never prove too long,
The night seemed like the day;
The night seemed bright and light - day;
Ere yet that house was old;
Ere yet its aged roof was gray,
Its inner chambers cold.
Old visions haunt the creaking 1oors,
Old sorrows sit and wall;
While still the night-winds out Of doors
Like burly bailiffs rail
Old visions haunt the floors above,
The walls with wrinkles frown;
Ana people say, who pass that way,
'Twese well the house weredown.

TINE undersigned has been duly appointed an
i Agent of the Protection Insurance Compa-
ny Of Hartford. Conn.,, at Iowa City, Iowa, and
is authorized to insure dwelling houses, stores
and ware houses, mills, manufactures. barns
stables and the contents Of each, together with
every other similar species Of property against
loss or damage by fire. The rates OF premium
offered are as low as those Of any other similar
institution, and every man has an opportunity
for tritling sum, 10 protect himself against the
ravages Of this destructive element, which often
in single hour sweeps away the earnings Of
MANY years.
There are two situations, in either Of which
the value OF Fire Insurance can be adequately
appreciated, viz: While standing upon the ruins
OF PERSONS own property. receiving from the
Insurance office the full amour: which he has
lost; or standing upon the same spot surrounded
perhaps, by destitute family. lamenting that
stupidity and folly which failed to provide
against such contingency.
