The Bolton ClaiTUoyGnte. The Manchester
Guardian contains long account of the second
interview between Mr. Haddock friend OF Sir
John franklin and the Bolton cIairvoyante. She
professed 10 have interviews with Sir John Frank
lin and Sir James Ross, described their position in
the ice, with sundry other minutie. She said she
had had some refreshments with Sir John Frank
lin, who had his provisions in thick tin boxes -
He had also some hard meat in big tub Sir John,
she said, would be out OF the ice in less than nine
months. That it was ten minutes past eleven by
Sir Johns time and quarter pas: ten good
while after by Sir James Ross's time. That she
went good way further than Sir James Ross,
where it was very dark. and the stars wentround
and did not twncle, but she sure that it was
quite ridiculous to attempt to find road for ships
over there. That she found Sir John IN house
made of large blocks of ice, about nine yards from
the ship. That Sir John had been great way
over the country, but had returned to his ships.
That Sir John franklin had seen the natives, but
not Sir James Ross; and that there were two ships
on their way home, which would bring good news.
The statements OF this girl have excited great in
terest all over the country. 1t has excited the
attention of the Admiralty, and the matter is said
to have been inquired after in high quarters.

"TO DE-"
" What thoughts come rushing to the

ITO die y What thoughts come rushing to the
mind,
Az we repeat-," to die !" Earth fades away;
Bright hopes of earthly kind forsake the breast,
And take their unknown fight. Long cherished
plans .
Prove vain, and burst like bubbles in the air.
Desires, that reach beyond the present scenes,
And grasp at distant objects, all expire
Beneath the glimmer of life's Pickering lamp.
The show of wealth, the pride or worldly pomp,
And fame's bright crown with diamonds set, and
thrones
OF dazzling splerdor--and royal titles,
All nothing seem beside the truth, "to die"
Then friends are weak, and words have lost
power;
Then spirits faint and hearts yield valor up;
Then friendship weeps as breaks the silken tie.
The grave-durk vestibule to future world,
Invites Death-dread commissioner OF God,
Stands arrayed in sepulchral robes, to cut
The thread when life's whole web is filled. And
now
Eternity-the word, how full of thoughts
Great thoughts too big for mortal utterance;)
TRANSCRIPTS all other views and wraps the soul
In contemplation, serious and sublime.
Jehovah sits upon his blazing throne,
And light his garment is. Transcendent power
Uplifs the arm that moves the ceptre Of
The world. An awful majesty divine
Surrounds the searching Judge. His hate to sin
Speaks in the dreaded thunder of his voice,
And lightens in his eye. A shining throng-
Ten thousand angels spread their flaming wings
Beneath his glory, and wait adoring
Round the judgment bar An awful silence
Regns through all the congregated world
As bursts the seals of that unpublished Book
Whose pages TEEN with deeds of human life;
Tremendous thoughts fill up the deep suspense,
Thoughts of the plaudit welcome, and the doom
Depart; and all this congregation of
Momentous scenes rush in upon the soul
When man lies down upon his couch "to die"
