WISHING.
BIZ JOHN G SAKE.

tN-af .I
OF all smusenents for the mind,
Prom logic down 70 fishing,
There isn't one that you can find
So very cheap as ''wishingl"
A very choice diversion too,
IF We but rightly use it,
And not, as we are apt to do,
Pervert 1t and abuse it.
IEish--a common wish, indeed
Ny purse was somewhat fatter,
That / might cheer the child of need,
Z. And not my pride to Aatter;
That l might make oppression reel,
: As only gold can make it,
And break the tyrant's rod of steel,
As only gold can break i'll
I wish-that sympathy and Love,
And every human passion
That hath its origin above,
.Would come. and keep in fashion;
That scorn. jealousy, and hate,
land every base emotion,
Were buried fifty fathoms deep
J Beneath the waves of oceanl
I wish-that friends were always true,
And motives always pure;
Iwish the good we're not so few,
wish the bad were fewer;
Iwish that parsons ne'er forgot
Tc heed their pious teaching;
l wish that practieing was not
So different from preaching!
I wish-that modest worth might be
Appraised with truth and candor;
wish that innocence were free
From treachery and SANDER;
Iwish that men their vows would mind
That women ne'er were rovers;
I wish that men were always kind,
And husbands always loversl
/ Iwish-in ine-that JOY and mirth,
And every good ideal,
May come, erewhile, throughout the
earth,
To be the glorious reall
Till God shall every creature bless
With his supremest blessing,
And hope be lost in happiness,
And wishing be possessing!

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY IN MIssoURI-We learn
from Franklin County, that Professors Litton
and Shumard, Of the Geological Survey, have
been for some days past examining the mine
raj region on the Meramec, west of the mouth
of the Bourbeuse, and have inspected the Mo-
selle Iron Mines. The Virginia, Sleeves d
Wales, Bertholds Generally's, Massy's and
other lead mines in that neighborhood-and
also the Copper Mines of the Stanton Com
panY, Gamble d Bredell, Andrew Park and
others. At the Stanton Copper Mine they
have made full measurement Of all the under
ground workings, with view of ascertaining
the course and power of the lode, and of form
ing an opinion of its probable richness. The
workings Of this mine give better insight
into the Copper formations of Missouri, than
is afforded by any other locality in the State;
but what conclusions the biologists have or
will come to in regard to any of these proper
ties, cannot of course be known until reported
to the next Legislature.
We are assured, by those who assume to
Judge from extended examinations, that al
though no copper mine has yet been fully de-
veloped in Missouri, yet there are indications
entitled to much consideration, going to show
that we have, IN all probability, copper re-
gion equal in value to that on Lake Superior.
At the Station Mine, the copper seems to be
associated with iron of remarkable purity, and
identical with that of Massy's Iron works on
the head ofthe Maramec, with the Pilot Knob
and I'm Mountain ores, and ores found in
various other localities. 1t is believed by the
members of the Stanton Company, that this
peculiar iron may probably be regarded as the
associate of copper wherever it appears in the
State; and this view is strengthened by the ap-
pearance Of small quantities of carbonates and
psritous copper associated with the iron at the
Massy Iron works. Should it turn out that
fhess remarkable iron formations are surface
