The Contraband Trade Of the Rio Grande
is said to be very extensive, goods being
Struggled across the frontier into Mexico
with the utmost IMMUNITY, and in large
quantities. The Matamorss Blen Pno'ico
has the following estimates of the amount
of goods struggled over the Rio Grandc
in year:
We know from reliable sources, that for
one year the impor,a,ions into Brownsville
have been GG,OOO,OOO yards of cotton
goods, the value Of $4,000 600; there is
no doubt whatever that these goods have
not been consumed in Brownsville, nor is
there doubt as to their having been in
troduced clandes,inely into our codntry.
If,hese goods had paid the moderate duty
of two cents per yard, our national treas
ury would have received into its Golfers
$4,000, instead whereof. the amount
received in this maritime custom house
is scarcely $4,000.

Effect of q Mothers Fear.


First impressions made on the fears Of a
child, are as apt to he enduring as first
impressions Of any other kind. Hence
the mischief Of frightful nursery tales.
Writ, in his recollections OF his first ten
years, thus describes the lasting effec, Of
childish sympathy with his mothers fears'
"On the evening that am speaking Of:
there was one Of the most violent thunder
storms have ever witnessed. My aunt
got down her Bible, and began to read
aloud. As the storm increased, she read
louder and louder. My mother was ex-
ceedingly frightened. She was one ofthe
most tender and affectionate Of beings
but she had the timidi,y Of her sex in an
extreme degree; and, indeed, this storm
was enough toappal the stoutest heart
One fash Of lightning struck tree in
the yard, and ripped of large splinter,
which it drove towards Us. My mother
shrieked aloud, flew behind the door, and
took me with her. My aunt remained
firm in her seat, and noticed the peal in no
other way than by the increased energy
Of her voice. This was the first thunder

go and come with all the regularity of

be full reward forfall her tolls. All
things went on peacefully and happily, SO

signs of uneasiness Indications Of secret

RESIGNATION.

RESIGNATION.
BYH. LoNoTELLow:
There is no flock, however watched and tended
But one dead lamb is there!
There is no fireside, howsoe'er defended,
But has one vacant chair
TIE air is full of farewells to the dying,
And mourning for the dead;
The heart Of Rachel for her children crying,
Will not be comfortedl
Let us be patient! these severe Affections,
Not from the ground arise,
But oftentines celestial benedictions
Assume the dark disguise.
We see but dimly through the mists and vapors
Amid these earthly damps,
What seems to us but dim, funeral tapers
May be Heavens distant lamps.
There is no Death what seems so is transition;
This life Of Mortal breath
Is but the suburb Of the life elysian,
Whose portal we call Death.
She is not dead-the child of our Affection
But gone unto that school,
Where she no longer needs our poor protection,
And Christ himself doth rule;
In that great cloister's stiffness and seclusion,
by guardian angels led,
Safe from temptation, safe from SIMS pollution,
She lives, whom we call dead.
Day after day we think what she is doing
In those bright realms Of air;
Year after year, her tender steps pursuing,
Behold her grown more fair.
Thus do we walk with her, and keep unbroken
The bond which nature gives.
Thinking that our remembrance, tho unspCken
: May reach her where she lives.
Not as child shall we again behold herr
For when with rapture wild s& a4- sEaaa
In our embraces we again enfOld her,
She will not be child; ....
But fair maiden in her fathers mansion,
Clothed with celestial grace; ....
And beautiful with all the souls expansion,
Shall we behold her face. .
And though at times impetuous with emotion
And anguish long suppressed,
The swelling heart heaves moaning like the ocear
That cannot be at rest.
We will be patient! and assuagc the feeling,
We cannot wholly stay;
BY silence sanctifying, not concealing
The grief that must have way.

Our democratic contemporary ofthe Pos:
is playful on the subject Of the intro
duction into Boston of the custom of ma
king servants wear livery. 1t is astonish-
ing how soon the sunshine of prosperity
sweats the democracy out Of a man, and
reconciles him TO abuses, which would
once have excited his indignant hostility.

1.-THE author had occasion TO witness an
instance Of this most interesting applica-
ton Of astronomy 1.-THE Interpretation Of hi
eroglyphical characters) in ascertaining
the date Of papyrus, sent from Egypt by
Mr. Salt, in the hieroglyphical researches
Of the late DR. Thomas Young, whose pro-
found and varied requirements do honor
10 his country, and to the age in which he
lived. The manuscript was found in 4
mummy case; it proved TO be a horoscope
Of the age of Ptolemy, and its date was de-
termined from the confguration Of the
heavens at the time of its construction"
at is singular that the decimal division
Of the day, Of degrees, weights, and meas
ures, was employed in China 1000 years
ago; and that at the time lbu Junis made
his observations at Cairo about the year
1000 Of the Christian era, the Arabs were
in the habit Of employing the vibrations Of
the pendulum in their astronomical obser-
vations as measure of time"
In section XVI, when treating Of sound,
&c., and relating the researches Of NJ. Sa-
var! in acoustics, the author says ''that
the human ear can appreciate sound
which only lasts the 24,0C0th part Of a
second. This note was distinctly heard
by NJ. Savart and by several people who
were present, which convinced him that
with another apparatus, still more acute
sounds might be rendered audible"
The apparatus employed was wheel
twirty-two inches in diameter, with 72O
teeth, set at equal distances round its rim,
so that while in motion each tooth success
sively hit on piece Of card.

Higher yet than these for me -
Something greater FAR must enter
Into life's majestic spanj
Fitted to create and centre
True nobility In mani
What is noble? 'tis the finer
Portion of our mind and heart:
Linked To something still diviner
Than mere language can ifnpart;
Ever prompting-erer seeing
Some improvement yet to plan;
To uplift our fellow being
And, like man to feel for man!
What is noble? is the sabre
Nobler than the humble spadep
There is a dignity in labor
Truer than e'er Pomp arrayed!

Aids the world-in aiding mind!-
Every great commanding movement
Serves not one-but all mankind.
Der the Forge's heat and ashes
Der the Engines iron head
Where the rapid shuttle flashes,
And the spindle whirls its thread;
There is Labor lowly tending
Each requirement Of the hour,
There is genius still extending
Science-and its world Of power!
,Mid the dust, and speed, and clamor
OF the loom shed and the mill:
,Midst the clink of wheel and hammer,
Great results are growing stilll
Though too Oft by Fashions creatures
Work and workers may be blamed;
Commerce need not hide its features!
Industry is not ashamed!

What is noble? that which places
Truth in its enfranchised Will!
Leaving steps-like angel traces
That mankind may follow still!

Prove him poorest Of his clan,
