ELOQUENT ExrRAcr.-We copy the following
extract from a new work entitled, " The Old House
by the River"
Go preach to block and stones, We who believe
that love is clay? Go preach to the dead We who
deny the immortality Of the affection. Go reason
with trees, or hills or images Of wood or with your
own motionless, ~Efeless, icy souls, ye who believe
that, because that there is no marrying yonder,
there shall be no embracing, or because we may
not use the gentle words, "my wife" we may not
clasp these sanctifed forms in our own holy arms
l tell you, man, thatimmortality would be a glorious
cheat if with our clay died all our first affections.
l tell you that humiliation would be heaven, if I
believe that when my head at length rests on its
coffin pillow, and my lips sink to the silence and
repose OF death, these loving eyes will never look
into mine again, this pure clasp never be around
my neck, this holy caress never bless me more.
PIRATES ON THE LAKEs.-The people along
Lake Michigan, from Alegan north to the M~anistee,
have been thrown into a state Of the most intense
excitement by the operations Of a gang of maraud-
ers, who are reported to be Aormons from Beaver
Island, and who have carried on their operations
with a boldness, c~oolness, and desperation rarely
in the records of highwaymen. They are
to have burned saw mills and robbed
stores north of the Grand River. At Grand Haven
they made repeated attempts to break into stores.
They made their appearance at the mouth Of
Kalamazoo, and after looking about m pushed
up South as far as the ~tanneries in the town Of
and broke open Robinson l. Plummer's
robbed them of 81, 800 worth Of goods, and
made back again down the lake. Off Port Sheldon
they were seen by a vessels crew anchored there, |
with their plumber all open to view, and were pull
ing On down as c~arelessly and as ~fearlessly as though
they were pursuing a legitimate calling. There is
SAID to be upwards Of twenty in the gang. They

QUEEN VIcToRIA's PoRrRAIr.-A Paris cores
pondent of the New York Tribune, writing of the
Queen Of England as she appeared at Paris, inns
this pretty pen-picture:
At twenty, her Majesty was doubtless pretty. and
merited the touching title of Sweet Rose of En-
gland" She must have always been pretty rath-
err than beautiful; her form never can reach the
matchless grace of Eugenie's. Victoria has, how
ever, still her charms. Her figure is naturally mi
gnom, though time has rounded it into fullness. l
think she must count less even than the feminine
height Of the Venus de Medicis' beauties. Years
sit lightly on her Mejesty, though they have cast
their rosy shadows over the blonde face. 1t is a
pity to affirm it, vet folly to deny, that the Queen
is now often positively, and without qualification, red.
Her Majesty's hair is light, and sandy; her forehead
and eyes are fne-the latter large, of beautiful
form and expression. Her nose is exquisitely deli
cate, and rather aquiline. The upper lip is pretty,
but the pearls are sadly long, and the small mouth
in attempting to close over them, becomes even
in expression. In short, the Queen
should never shut her mouth-she looks better
with it open. Her smile is agreeable and affection
ate. Her quiet dignity inspires respect, and her wo-
manly and motherly graces, united to intelligence,
and ~faulsless domestic virtues, render her
the idol Of her people. The English love their
Queen, as the French do the Virgin Mary.

To Sugar Planters.

THE undersigned respectfully offers his services
l. to sugar Planters for the manufacture Of sugar by the
Bisuphite Of Lime process. Last season he gave to all
tn Sc who employed him, the fullest possible proof of the
superiority of his process, as he can prove by the umerous
certificates which he can exh bit. Should any planter doubt
the beneficial effects and numerous ad, antages received
from it, Their are respectfully referred to those who have
employed him.
The undersigned also deems it his duty to inform the public
that there are ma y qmacks who pretend to be masters Of
his process. They are humbugs and imposters and the
unfortunate pl rer who trusts to them, and follows their
instructions, will learn at the cost of his whole crop, that
they are only base pretenders. Many have ALREADY given
a sample in that line, during the past season. Let planters
be on their guard.
