THUNDER SToRMs.-The safest situa-
ton during a thunder storm is in the Gel
lar; for when a person is below the sur
face of the earth, the lightning must
strike il before il can reach him, and will
probably be expended upon it. DR..
Franklin advises persons aPprehensire
of lightning TO sit in the middle OF The
room. not under a metal %lustre, or any
other conductor, anG 10 place their feet
upon another chair. l, will be still safer,
he adds. to lay two or three beds or mat.
rasses liz the middle OF The room and TO
place The chairs upon them. A ham
mock suspended with silk cords viii be
an Improvement on this apparatus. Per-
sons out of doors should avoid trees, &c.
The distance Of a thunder storm and
its consequent danger can easily be
es,imated. AS light travels a, the rate Of
1872 600 miles in a second, its effects
NAV be considered as instantaneous
within any moderate distance. Sound
is transmitted at the rate of l,l42 fee. in
a second. BY observing therefore, the
time which mtervenes between the flash
Of lightning and the thunder which ac-
companies II a very near calculation may
be made Of lis distance.

CHE WILL NOT woo AGAIN."

Twas but a word-a careless word,
In pride and passion spoken;
But with that word the charm that bound
Two loving hearts was broken.
The hasty wrath had passed away,
But bitter words remain;
In vain she looks with tender glance
He viii not woo again.
No other love may lighter path:
Noother nov his heart;
Yet changing seasons come and go,
And find them still apart;
Her once bright cheek is paler now;
His bears a trace of pain;
Their days are weary, sad-and yet
He will not woo again.
They meet as strangers, calm and cold,
As calmly, coldly, part;
And none may guess that tranquil mein
Conceals a wounded heart.
To him the world hath lost its light;
For her all joys are vain;
For hope, nor memory bring relief
He will not WOO again.
Alasl that love, long tried and warm;
Should wither in an hour;
Alas! that pride DER human hearts
Should WELD such fearful power;
Oh! weep thou not for those who die
For them all tears are vain;
But weep DER living hearts grown cold
Who ne'er can love again.

SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The Intelligencer, TO show that Mr..
Benefits land bill is more strictly in
keeping with the spirit of the deeds of
cession from the States under which the
General Government acquired most of
the public domain, quotes from the deed
made by New York a clause saying q
the lands thus coded, that they "shall
be and enure for the use and benefit of
such Of the United States as shall become
members Of the federal alliance of the
said States, and for no other use or benefit
lchaterer."
From Virginia's deed of cession, the
editor quotes, as follows: nf
THAT all the lands within the terri
tory so coded to the United States, and
not reserved for or appropriated to any
OF the aforementioned purposes, or dis
posed of in bounties to the officers and
soldiers of the American army, shall be
considered as common fund, for the use
and benefit of such of the United Stat s
as have become Or shall become members
of the United States, Virginia inclusive,
according to their usual respective pro-
portions in the general charge and expen-
diture. and shall be faithfully and bona
.Fds disposed of for that purpose, aud for
no other use or purpose whatsoever"
The Union, commenting ON the vote by
which Mr.. Cuttings proposition was re-
Gently laid on the table in the House,
says:
owe cannot be misunderstood when
we hail that vote as good omen. We
welcome it as the expression of the dem
ocratic majority in Congress that discord
shall not extend to other States, and as
the eloquent and effective appeal of the
same majority to our political friends in
New York, that dissension may soon be
banished from their ranks"
The Sentinel defends Senator Bright, in
two earnest columns, against the suspi-
cion of being against the Administration.
So we go.
