The old Oaken bucket.

This most popular song was written by SAM
uel P. Woodwork, while yet he was journey
man printer, working in an Office at the corner
Of Chambers and Chatham Streets. Near by,
in Frankfort Street, was drinking shop, kept
by man named Mallory, where Woodwork
and several particular friends used to resort
One afternoon the liquor was super-exoellent.
WOodworth seemed inspired by it, for, after ia :
king draught, he set his glass upon the table,
and, smacking his lips, declared that MalIOry's
en.: de uie was superior to any thing he had ever
tasted No. said Malory, you are Mistaken
there was one which in both our esiimations,
far surpassed this in the way Of drinking
what was that7' asked Woodwork, obviously
The draughts of pure, fresh spring water that
we used to drink from the old oaken bucket that
hung in the well, after our return from the la
bors Of the field on a sultry day in Summer. =
The teardrop glistened for moment in Wood
worth's eye. True, true,' he replied, and
shortly after quilted the place. He immediOte-
Iy returned to tho office, grnsped pen, and in
half an hour the 'Old Oaken Bucket,' one Of the
most delightful compositions in our language
was ready in manuscripts to be embalmed in the
memories of succeeding generations. ---heW H0rt

The Berlin correspondent Of the PhiIa.
delphia Nort6 american, writes that The
German Newspapers have continued to
abound in accounts Of the late sickness oI
the Emperor Of Russia, and the various
mourning ceremonies before and at his fu-
neral, and adds:
'Ihe corpse lay in state in the chamber
OF the Princes Olga. 1t had been EN-
balmed, and covered with cloth embroidei
ed with gold, eoncealing the face and the
whole body. Three priests stood constant
y by its side, during the time in which it
was awaiting sepulture, and read the mass
BY turns. The thronging of sho people
was immense. To give all an opportunity
to approach the remains of the dead, each
person on entering was requested by the
pages in attendance TO make all haste pos
slble to give room for others. Every Rus
sian kneit before the cOllia, crossed himself
and kissed the, to his mind, sacred body
All classes came together. and the peasant,
in his rude dress Of skins and fsE, might be
seen beside the highest mobiles. Each day,
when the public had been shut out, came
the Empress to pass an hour in prayer and
meditation by the side Of her dead husband
When the day Of burial came. the deepest
sorrow seemed to have oVsrspread the city
the people who lined the streets kneeled as
the pompous procession passed, and tears
flowed from every eve. in mourning for him
whom, in their ignorant and exaggerated
loyalty, they worshipped as almost a god'
A letter from ST. PetersbuTgh says DR..
MoNT, homeopathic physician to the late
Emperor has left Russia 10 great haste and
secretly. He is reproached with with hav-
ing too long concealed from the august de-
ceased that his lung was attacked !; also
with having himself prepared the medicines
destined for the Emperor, instead Of having
them prepared by druggist. Great irri.
tation was manifested against him at ST.
Peiersburgh, and the Emperor ALExAN-
DER himself advised him, it is said, to leave
Russia.

ToRNADo-THE NIAGARA SUSPENSION
BRIDGE THOROUGHLY TEsTED.-The Buffalo
Democracy gives the details of fierce
storm which swept over Western New
York on Wednesday. Much damage was
done at various points. A car factory, the
Scotch Presbyterian Church, &c. were de-
molished at Niagara. The following par
agraph narrates the effect of the terrific
storm upon the new railroad bridge:
"At the Suspension Bridge the blow was
most violent, doing more or less damage.
The men who had just commenced work
on the bridge, painting, &c. ran off when
they saw the gale coming, and some were
blown violently from one side to the other
one narrowly escaped being blown over in
to the rirer. The wind howled and
screamed through the gorge with aperfsct
rush. One Of the workmen said it blew
like hell let loose The bridge, however,
sustained not the slightest injury, and no
vibration was perceptible, when the gale
was at its highest pitch" %

THE VALUE OF LoTs AND BUILDIHGs IN
NEW YoRk-The Courier d Enquirer

Al the latter valuation, per acre. it amounts

How TO GET THE REAL FLAVOR OF Cor
FEE.-In Kingdoms "Forest life in Ceylon, -
are the following hints on the preparation
Of coffee, derived from long experience
The subtle aroma which resides in the es-
sential oil of the coffee berry. is gradually
dissipated after roasting. and still more af-
ter being ground. In order to enjoy the
full flavor in perfection. the berry should
pass at once from the roasting pan to the
mill, and thence to the coffee pot: and
again after having been made should be
mixed at boiling heat with the hot milk.
Il must be bad coffee indeed, which, il
these precautions be taken, will not afford
an agreeable and exhilarating drink. Two
great evils are constantly perpetrated in
England, in its preparation, which are more
guarded against in almost all other countries
and which materially impair its flavor and
strengthening the coffee considerable
time after roasting or grinding, by which its
strength is considerably diminished, and
mixing the milk with it after it has been al
lowed partially to cool

A MORMON CoLoNY.-The ship SiddOns,
which arrived at Philadelphia on Friday
night from Liverpool, had on board 425
Mormon emigrants, destined, as the marks
upon their baggage indicated, for "Salt
Lake City" The American says, they
were composed Of British families, all ap-
peared well dressed, healthy and intelligent
The women, especially, had that ins ro-
bust, rosy, British look about them of which
we hear so much. They were to proceed
Immediately by railroad and steamboat, to
the western frontier, and there start over
land for their new home in the valley Of the
Salt Lake, where the leaders of the Nor
mons seem fast gathering populous and
flourishing community, mostly accumulated
from the European hive of nations.

A SINGULAR PHENoMENoN.-We have
never seen in print notice of tie following
strange fact although every steamboat man
acquainted with Green River navigation,
can verify its truth. Just above the locks,
when the river is low, for several miles
steamboats, shut down their furnace doors
and allow no torches to be lighted, for fear
of what the deck hands call "setting the
the river on fre!" Frequently boats using
torches or keeping their furnace doors open
at this particular place, and have found
themselves engulphed in blue flames,
greatly to the alarm of the passengers, and
in several instances setting the steamers on
FIRE. In some instances the passengers
have only been prevented by the strenuous
exertions of the officers from leaping over
board in their alarm. The cause of the
singular phenomenon is simply this:
The bottom of the river becomes covered
with forest leaves and rubbish to the depth
of some inches, probably several feet
Boats in low water run through this bed of
vegetable matter, their wheels string it up
thoroughly. An inAamable gas is thus
permitted to escape, which, on communica-
ton with fame, at once takes FIRE, and
burns with blue blaze. At such time
the boat is stopped and the fame ceases
When out, the boat goes on again, taking
the precautions mentioned above. Unless
allowed to continue some little time, this
burning gas is not apt to communicate its
flame with woodruff il is quite sufficient
to seriously alarm those not acquainted with
its cause.-E EVansviNe Journal.
