Galpinism Of the AdministratiOn.-Th was
to be not only very brilliant" but a pure
administration. The operations connected with
the Gadsden treaty have however very effectu.
ally dispelled these ideas. A correspondent Of
the Independent Democrat writing from Wash.
ington says:
dare not name to you the rumors current
among members of Congress and others, in re-
lation to the corrupt implication of the men
nearest the President in the matter of the
twenty millions stipulated to be paid Santa An.
ma by the Gadsden Treaty. If the facts are
as generally reported and believed, not only one
or more members of the Cabinet, but Pierce
himself is involved in scheme of robbery and
peculation before which, Galpin and Gardiner
shall hide their diminished heads forever. An
effort has been made by Gen. Shields and other
Senators to dissolve the injunction of secresy
and let the facts be revealed; but without sue
cess.

Observing Currents at Sea.-One of the
most interesting as well as curious experiments
which has been made by Lieut.. MAURY in his
scientific researches, is that for ascertaining the
under currents Of the ocean. The boat is first
anchored, ,as itwere either by lowering her sound
ing line to great depth, or by suspending a
large iron kettle SO far beneath the surface as to
counteract the effects Of the surface current up
on the boat. The set and velocity of the sur
face current is then observed. A large wooden
box, loaded just sufficiently to make it sink is
then attached 10 the end of line of the re-
quired length, say one hundred fathoms, and
thrown overheard. To the other end Of the
line is fastened small empty keg which float
ing lightly upon the waves, prevents the box
from sinking beyond the length of the string
The box being under the influence of any cur
rent that it may find one hundred fathoms be-
low the surface, carries the cask on the surface
in the same direction, and with the same veloc.
ity as ITSELF Mr.. WALSH says, in an account of
this experiment:
'Jt was wonderful indeed to see this barrica
little barely move off against wind and sea
and surface current at rate of over one knot
the hour, as was generally the case. and on one
occasion as much as II knots. The men in
the boat could not repress exclamations of sur
prise, for it really appeared as if some monster
of the deep had laid hold of the weight below
and was walking off with it." .

TO AN ABSENT LOVER.


The following poetic lines were written by Q
young lady in answer to letter she had reseiv
ed from her lover in the West:
In mingiing with the lovely fair,
With all their charms and golden hair,
Some splendid girls, perchanee you'll see,
As ever dwelt IN Tennessee.
But dear Ebert, one thing know,
No warmer heart did ever glow
With purer love than dwells in mine,
In that dear heart youleft behind.
Some girls perehance with whom you'll NEE,
Will look as handsome and as sweet;
But none can be more kind and true,
Than have always been to You.
If you should roam ten thousand miles,
And see thousand beauties smile,
There's none among that smiling fhrong,
Has loved so true and loved so long.
remember each word you said,
