ORNAMENTAL BRIoKs.-A style of ornamental
bricks has recently been introduced into Eng
land, and patented by Messrs. Bowers, Challi-
nors and Wooliscraft, Of the Staffordshire potte-
ries These bricks, or rather they are kind
of pottery-ware, are made, the Scientific 1mer-
can says, from mixture of clay and other in
grediants, calculated to vitrify with the clay.
They can be painted and grained with the utmost
facility, so as to initiate any kind Of oak, rose,
satin, or other woods, or sculptures in stone, or
be gilded without injuring the brilliancy of the
gold-leaf. They may supply the place of wood
carving in architectural decoration, and, from
their fre-proof nature, add to the safety Of the

nation FIVE dollars, letter A, dated October lst,
1850, and no other date that we have heard Of
The signatures of the president, J. r. Amman,
and cashier, II. Bruce, are tolerably well exc
cuted, but can only deceive the unwary. The
paper is of inferior quality, and the engraving
is of that muddy character that generally dis
tinguishes counterfeits. The note is nearly an
eighth of an inch longer and somewhat wider
than the genuine. We do not know whether it
will hold good in all cases, but in those we have
seen there is this difference between the genuine
and the counterfeit. In the genuine there is a
Jewel distinctly seen in the ear Of the Indian
woman at the top of the note; in the counter
felt this is not visible. II is supposed that
these notes were manufactured in Allegany

ny THE REV. H. noNAR,
That cline is not like this dull cline Of ours
All, all Is brightness there
A sweeter influence breathes around its flowers
And far milder air. .#8 H.H..
No calm below is like that calm above, ..
No region here is like that realm of love;
Earth's softest spring neer shed SO soft light,
Earth's brightest summer never shone so bright.
That sky Is not like this sad sky of ours, ..I
Tinged with earth's change and care;
No shadow dms It, and no rain-cloud lowers,
No broken sunshine there. @ii 'i
One everlasting stretch of azure pours y ~ Ljl45
Its stainless splendor DER those sness shores :; E I
For there Jehovah shines with heavenly ray,
There Jesus reigns, dispensing endless day
The dwellers there are not like these of earth,
h.E No mortal stain they bear; sr. ..
And yet they seem of kindred blood and birth
Whence, and how came they therei A0
Earth was their native soil /; from sin and shame
Through uibulation they To glory came,
Bond-saves delivered from SINS crushing load,
Brands plucked from burning by the hand of God.
Those robes of theirs not like these below
No angels half so bright
Whence came that beauty, whence that living glow?
Whence came that radiance white -
Wash'd In the blood of the atoning iamb,
Fair as the light those robes of theirs became;
And now, all tears wiped of from ev'ry eve, +.
They wander where the freshest pastures lie,
Through all the nghtless day of that unfading sky

FUNNY.-The Providence Or. I.) Mirror in
forms us that the State treasury is numbered
with about SIS, 900 more than can be accounted
for by the books. All the late treasurer can
say is, that it is there, but he does not know
where it belongs. The auditing committee
have entirely failed to discover any record of
the surplus funds. How easy it would be to
make them columns balance, and without any
help from auditing committees The Yankees

The TonET.-Parker's Journal says: "The
toilet of woman is IN altar, erected by self
love to vanity" 1t is oftener an altar erected
by love to hope. Women are apparently, and,
indeed, really absorbed in dress, because they
are taught from childhood that it is the shortest
and surest way to please those they desire the
good opinion of. Who ever saw a dowdy child,
and well-dressed one together in a room full
of company, without remarking how many more
caresses and praises are bestowed upon the
latter than upon the former? We SOW the seed
in the childs heart, and wonder the plant should
grow so strong as to oyershadow the woman.
