opposite the mouth of the river. Raleigh
arriving at Trinidad, stopped some days

the Spapiards had lately built there, and

The Beauties Of Creation.

Ours is lovely world! how fair
Thy beauties, even on earth, arpear:
The seasons in their courses fall,
ADd bring successive Joys: the sea,
The earth, the SLY, are full Of thee,
Benignant, glorious LORD OF ALL.
There's beauty in the break of day;
There's glory in the noon tide ray;
There's sweetness in the tSiIigLt SHADES
Magnifcence in night; thy lose
Arched in the grand heaven Of Blue above,
And all our smiling earth Pervades.
And if thy elories here be found
Streaming with radiance all around,

Chean Beds.

Beech leaves are said 20 be one of the
best articles ever used for beds as a sub
stitute for straw or husk, and much bet
ter than either of fthose. as they are elastic,
clean and very swe,t-favored, and not
liable to get musty like straw in damp
weather. The leaves should be gathered
ia dry autumn weather. Perhaps the
leaves OF some other sp5ci, S-of tree may
be equally good as the beech, though gen.
orally they are not so tough aud free from all
unpeasautuess arising from use or damp
weather. They would be valuable for
filing sea going mattresses.
