and excessive joy. are generally well
understood. But. in report Of the
Bethlehem Hospital. England, we find
some causes assigned which to say the
least, are curious and almost increI ible
Thus. two meh became mad from fear oi
the cholera, two women from living with
insane persons; one from attending a sing
ing class; one from terrier at the Partisan
revolution Of 848. and one from the ex.
citement Of travelling, for the first time
in a railroad car. In several cases insa nj.
ty resulted from bodily sickness. Three
men became crazeL from exposure to a
hot sun. One poor fellow went mad from
excessive sea sickness. Generally. women
are more liable to hereditary insanity than
males; and it is known that their seden.
tary occupations render them more subject
to it, from most causes. than the other sex
In the Bethlehem Hospital, during one
wear. twelve females were admitted who
had gone mad from love; but not one male.

The DEER RIVER LOCKS. learn
that ten RATS Of lumber and timber passed
lately thro' the locks above Fayetteville;
and were carried over the shoals by the
water which flowed thro' the locks causing
a trifling swell in the river. These RATS
were brought into our market and dispes-
ed Of at 80 and $40 per NJ. Without the
aid ofthe locks. we are Informed. these
RATS could not possibly, for some time to
come, have reached this place. We are
pleased at this information. hope that it
may be correct, and that this auspicious
commencement may be continued with
similar results for many fsture years. If
by means Of the locks our market can be
supplied with timber, &c, at all seasons
Of the year. in times Of drought and other
wise. the Deep River improvement will
be source Of benefit, which throwing
out its other advantages, cannot be easily
estimated. The impression prevails to
some extent however in this place that
they cannot accomplish this purpose.
which we hope is an entirely erroneous
one. AT all events the work should be
hurried on with prudent dispatch that the
experiment may be tested. as we hear that
there are about 60 RATS above and below
the locks detained by the low state Of the
water, and our mill owners are suffering
much Inconvenience If not damage by the
scarcity Of supplies Herald.

LOOK OUT FOR FRAUD.
This article has become so popular that many
urprincipled persons who have found beds Of
rotten stone, uniformed red sandstone. or any
minerals which resemble the genuine article in
color, &c. have published that they have found
beds of 'Fire-proofPaint,' - which (wthout wait
ing to test their propertes) they offer to the
public for sale, and state that they are superior
to everything. whereas none of them have been
got up more than two years. and many of them
not yet two months. l have the statement of
more than 20 men of the highest standing in the
vicinity Of the Mines, who have and some
of them used these counterfeit stuffs, which says
there has been such complete failure in all the
different articles got up and offered for sale there
as ''Fire- proof Paints,'' except mine, that mine
only is considered worth using. Besides all this.
I have patent upon the genuine article which
has been submitted to some of the most able
referees in the country, also to the Hon. Danl
Webster, ali of whom decided in the most ex-
plicit terms that it was valid, and all persons
manufacturing. selling using this article, un-
less obtained of me, would be liable to me for
damages.
Every person therefore to be safe. should see
that my brand is every package; for should
they purchase any substance which will make

useless article, they of course lose their

COMMUNICATION BETWEEN EUROPE AND

what will no doubt prove successful moveI
ment is now on foot. to bring the United
States and England by means ofthe tele::
graph and steam within five days commu-
nicatlon with each other, The Newfound-
land Electric, Telegraph Company, noworr
ganizing in New York, with a capita! OF
100000, design connecting New York by
a submarine telegraph either with Cape
North, at The Nothern extremity of Nova
Scotia, or with Prince Edward's Island,
the point of terminus not having yet been
decided on. The adoption of the latter
point will render necessary one. hundred
and thirty miles of submarine wire, but
will reduce the distance some three hundred
miles. All the steamers both of the Collins
and Cunard lines pass in sight of Cape Race,
Newfoundland, at which point the telegraph
company will have steam-yacht TO run
OUT and exchange dispatches with the out
ward and inward bound steamers. The
steamers of the proposed Quebec and Liv-
erpool, and New York and Galway lines
will also touch at Cape Race.
The route of the proposed line of tele-
graph has already been surveyed and an
agent will shortly be dispatches to Europe
10 contract for the necessary submarine
wire. The Company is guaranteed the ex-
elusive right TO telegraph across Newfound-
land for thirty years, and is granted boz
nus of thirty square miles of land and $50
600. 1t is expected that the whole will be
and in operation in six months
from the present time.

AN ANEcDoTE.-Th inhabitants of a
small town in Ohio were recently put in a
great state of excitement by the announce
ment that Kossuth would pass through their
village at certain hour. Accordingly ev-
cry person that could walk, man, woman
and child, was at the depot at the expected
moment, prepared to give warm welcome
to the nations guest. 1t so happened that
Kossuth did not arrive in the train of cars,
but returned Californian was there, who
prided himself on magnificent moustache
and heavy growth of black whiskers, and
sported Kossuth hat and plumes. Upon
seeing the parade, he stepped forth upon
the platform to the great amusement of his
fellow-passengers, and was received with
three times thirty cheers He raised his
hat and plumes, and bowling gracefully to
the assembled company, remarked that ow-
ing to his past labors he was in delicate
health, and should not be able to address
them at any length, but thanked them most
sincerely for their sympathyiwith down trod
den Hungary, and amid deafenlng hurrahs
returned to his seat in the cars. The con-
ductor gave the signal, the train moved on,
and was soon out of hearing. The inhabi-
tants of that village will undoubtedly go to
their graves with the firm conviction of
having seen and heard Hungary's great
patriot.

POETRY Y,
TIE HEART--rHE HEART.
BY Eliza COOK.

BY Eliza COOK.
The heart-the heart oh, let ii be
A true and Sounteous thing:
As kindly warm, as noby free,
AS eagles nesting wing.
Oh, keep it not, like miser's gold,
Shut in from all beside,
But let its precious stores unfold,
In mercy, far and wide.
The heart-the heart, that's truly oiest,
Is never all its own,
No ray Of glory lights the breast
That beats for self alone.
The heari-the heart oh, let it spare
A sigh for others pain,
The breath that soOthes brothers. care
Is never spent in vain.
And though it ,hrOb at gentlest touch,
Or sorrows fainlest call,
'Twere better il should ache too much,
Than never ache at all.
The heart-the heart, that's truly blest,
Is never all It's own.
No ray OF glory lights the breast,
That beats for self alone.
