POETRY.

Why need strive and sigh for wealth
Il is enough for me,
That Heaven hath sent me strength and heaitf
A spirit glad and free;
Grateful these blessings to receive,
sing my hymn at morn and eVe'
On some, what floods Of riches flow
House, herds and gold have they;
Yet life's best joys they never know,
But fret their hours away.
The more they have, they seek increase;
Complaints and craving never cease
A vale of tears this world they call,
To me il seems so fair;
Il countless pleasure hath for all,
And none denied share.
The little birds on new aedged wing,
And insects revel in the spring.
For love of US, hills, woods and plains
In beauteous hues are clad;
And birds sing far and near sweet strains,
Caught up by echoes glad.
"Rise," sings the lark, ''your tasks to ply;"
The nightingale sings LULLABY"
And when the golden sun goes forth,
And ali like gold appears,
When bloom o'erspreads the glowing earth,
And fields have rlpening ears,
think these glories that see
NY kind Creator made for me.
Then loud thaaL the Lord above,
Aad say in joyful mood,
His love, indeed, is Fathers love,
He wills to all men good,
Then let me ever grateful live,
Enjoying all he deigns to give.

MARR1AGE.-The following are the o.
pinions Of two prominent ladies upon the
subject Of marriage:
aMarriase is to woman state of slavery
II takes from her the right to her own prop.
erty, and makes her submissive IN all
things to her husband. Lucy Stone.
."Marriase state of slavery aye, but
the bonds are silken and easily worm
Marriage is the sanctier Of love-an instl-
tuition which acknowledges the right OF wo'
man to be protected, and the duty Of man
to protect her. The Offices of wife and
mother are not those Of slaves. What higher
destiny beneath the skies than to instruct
The infant mind in thoughts of purity -
What holier mission than to soothe the tur'
bid torrent of mans passions by wori-
a look-a smile II Is to woman that tins
work is given. Woman, in her vocation,
NAV cheer the tired spirit, may lend hope
10 the desponding, may whisper love to the
lonely-while man may toll, and trafiic,
and fuss. and fret, aud grow savage. Who
would exchange places with him '"-EHa

MISCELLANY.
The Wrecker.
A CORNISH LEGEND.

Towards the close Of the sixteenth cen
tury, horrld custom prevailed on the coast
of Cornwall, England of luriug vessels to
their destruction in stormy weather, by fas-
tening lantern to a horses head, and
leading it about on the cliffs, in order that
the bewildered mariner, mistaking it for the
light of vessel, might be induced to shape
his course towards it. This atrocious ex-
psdient was often successful. The devoted
crew dreamed not of their danger until
warned oft, too late, by the foaming break
ers that burst upon them from the shore (;
and the vessel speedily became the prey of
a set of ruthless barbarians, who, 10 secure
themselves impunity in their punder, often
murdered those who escaped drowning, and
then called their booty "God-send."
In a small hovel, on the crasgy shore of
deep aud dangerous bay Oh the coast of
Cornwall, dwelt one of those wretches, an
old hardened desperate, who united in him
self the fisherman, the smuggler, and the
wrecker, but the last was his favorite occu-
patton; and such was the confidence of his
companions in his experience in this capa-
city, that he was usually appointed their
leader, and rarely failed in his office. His
wife, too, encouraged him, and not unfre-
quently aided him in his iuiquitous exploits,
Disguised with the wickedness of his pa
rents, their only son left his home in early
life, and sought to obtain an honorable sub
sistence as the mate of a West India trader.
1t was at period when long and profit
less summer and autumn had nearly pass
ed away, that Terloggau, like the vulture,
ever watchful for his prey, was more than
usually obscrvant Of the signs of the heav-
ems; nor was any one more capable than
himself of discovering the most distant in
dication of tempest Nature had for sew
eral months worn placid aud most encour-
aging aspect. The soft and azure sky SEEM
ed to rest upon the transparent sea, and
the slow-expandlng waves swept with slow
murmurings along the shining sands of the
deep bay with a wild and monotonous plash-
ing, that seemed TO strike like the voice OF
a prophecy upon the ear. Not more hate
iul were the glorious beams of the orb Of
day 10 the fallen Lucifer, as described by
our great poet, than was the quieScent state
of nature to the dark mind of Terloggan.-
In his impatience he cursed the protracted
season of tranquility, and hailed the ap'
preaching period of storms as more congo
nial not only to the gloomy temper of his
soul D. but TO his interests. AT length he
saw, with smile Of savage satisfaction,
the sun sink in angry red ben ath the dim
and cloudy horizon heard with secret ex-
ultation the hollow murmuringS fthe winds;
and beheld the blackening waves rising in
TO fury, and lashing the lofty rocks with
their ascending spray. As the night ad-
vanced in chaotic darkness the horrors of
the tempest increased ; aad the loud and

BE Gentle TO thy Wife.

Be gentle! for you little know
How many trials rise;
Although to thee they may be small,
To her Of giant size.
Be gentle though perchance that lip
May speak nurmurlng tone,
The heart may beat with kindness yet,
Aud JOY to be thine own.
Be gentle weary hours Of pain
'Tis woman'S lot to bear,
Then yield her what support thou canst,
And all her SORROWS share.
Be gentle for the noblest hearts
At times many have some grief,
And even in a pettish word
May seek to find relief.
Be gentle for unliindness now
May rouse an angry storm,
That all the after years of life
Ia vain may strive to calm!
Be gentle none are perfect
Thou'rt dearer far than life,
Then, husband, bear and still forbear-
BE gentle TO thy wife.

eS- Candle-making, by the use Of peat.
is exciting much attention in Ireland. The
peat is cut in the bog and thrown into q
huge retort, and there distilled, the volatile
products being condensed in vessel of the
required capacity. From 100 tons Of peat.
as much tar is extracted as yields 350pounds
of parapine, and 300 gallons of oil and 9th.
er valuable products. The parapine is OBJ.
tanned by boiling the tar an hour, IN water
containing 8 per cent. of strong sulphuric
acid, when the acid unites with the tar and
falls 10 the bottom, leaving the parapins'
with the oil. The liquid is then re.distiled.
and the paraplne Obtained in Aakey cakes
Of blackish color; these are then bleach
ed with chlorine gas, then steamed and
pressed into cakes, and afterwards made in.

EGGS IN ENGLAND.-It is said that the
number of fducks and hens eggs used in
England last year was fifteen hundred mil
lions, valued at about fifteen million dollars
One-third of these are brought from Ireland;
and the London and North Western Rail
road Company have frequently forwarded a
million eggs from Liverpool in single day
Holland, Belgium,France and Germany FUR
nlshed to England eleven millions OF eggs
in 1852; and these were worth two cents
each in London.

EYELAsHEs.-In Circassia, Georgia, Per.

IS to promote the growth of her children's
eyelashcs, by tipping and removing the fine
gossamer like points with pair of scissors,
when they are asleep. By repeating this
every month or six weeks, they become, IN
time, long, close, finely curved, and OF 3
silky gloss. The practice never fails to
produce the desired effect, and It is partic-
ularly useful when, owing 10 Inflammation

II HOPED ON-HopED EVER !''-Thus
spoke one who had reached the peak Of
victory. Storms had come upon him
shadows dragged their heavy skirts over
the hills and mountains Of his life 4: cares
and sorrows lashed their burdens on his
shoulders trials ard vicissitudes assailed
him-but amid them all, he had kept his
hope, and now, ere the middle watch was
passed, the angels had set their seal upon
him, and dropped upon his brow the wreath
of triumph. The gloom was gone forever
and as he stood with his feet within the
goal, the sunshine from the Eden hllls''
fell around him, and far out in the valley
of the Future, he saw the "fadeless laurel
tree" within whose shade his evening days
should ebb away, softly and gently as .
dream of Heaven.
"Hope on-hope ever" this is the true
philosophy. lfliie is chilled by passive
woe, or dlmmedby care, Hope is as a song
bird in the heart breathing hymns contin-
ualy. Yea. it runs through all the weary
years as a golden chain let down from
Heaven, to lead the soul TO holy thoughts
and the pure communion of the Immortal,
When Alexander, as he was about to
undertake his expedition against Persia.
distributed the estates of the crown among
his countrymeD, he was asked what he had
reserved for himself? He answered 'Hoper
So every soldier in Iife's battle fields should
reserve his Hope, for it shall lead him on,
no matter what opposes, to fame and con-
quest.
Brother, give all else you have, if you
will, but, like Alexander, keep your Hope |!

or by day-in bed. or out of bed-at table
Teasing. or away from the table fasting

ed, his thoughts still run upon money; and
he always makes the most of his time
The following incident, which occurred on
board the steamship Winfield Scott, lately
wrecked on the Pacific coast, illustrates in
a very forcible manner, that peculiar love
of gain which characterizes the Yankee
under all circumstances. When the ves-
sci struck, all was confusion and dismay
on board. One poor little fellow was en-.
deavoring to initiate life-preserver, but all
his efforts proved fruitless. Terrified at the
prospect Of going down, he shouted out,
"For Gods sake, will no one help me blow

watching the proceeding, coolly answered,
II will. if you give me ten dollars" The

of filthy lucre at such time but the Yam.

yincing, and he pocketed the spondulies.
