The importance Of apples, as food, has not

pies nearly as nourishing ns bread, and more so

on baked spplcs without meat, whereas pota-

and Germans nse apples extensively; indeed, it
is rare they sit down, in the rural Districts,
without them in some shape or other, even Of
the best tables. The labOrers and mechanics

POETRY.
AN AUTUMN MORNING.

ny j. q. WHITTIER.
'Iis morning over Norridgewock-
On tree and wigwam, wave and rock.
Bathed in the autumnal sunshine, stirred
AT intervals by breeze and bird,
Aud wearing all the hucs which glow
In heavens own pure and perfect bow,
That glorious picture Of the air,
Which summers light-robed angel forms
On the dark ground Of fhding storms,
With pencils dipped in sunbcams there
And, stretching out, on either hand,
O'er all that wide and unshorn land,
Till weary Of its gorgeousncss,
The aching and the dazsled eve,
Rests, gladlcned on the calm blue sky
Slumbcrs the nightly willcrnessl
The oak upon the windy hill,
Its dark green burthen upward heayes-
The hemlock broods above its rill
Its eone-likc foliage darker still,
While the white birch's graceful stem
And the rough walnut boueh receives
The sun upon their crowded leaves,
Each colored like topaz gent
And the tall maple wears with them
The coronal which autumn gives,
The brief bright sign Of ruin near,
The hectic Of dying yearl

to understand whether they are not your worst

A AYAsKsE FRIeATE IN EscLAsD.-The Eng-
lish papers express much admiration at the ap-
pearance Of our steam frigate .Merrimac, which
has been in Southampton. II they are so as
tonished at the appearance Of the Merrimac what
will they say to George Steers Niagara, which
is so universally her superior. The London
Times says Of the Merrimac; ''Those intelli-
gent Yankees who would whip creation know
at least how 10 build steam frigate They
have inst sent us one to look at, the Merrimac,
screw steamer of $500 tons, 500 horse pow :
er, and carrying forty guns of the heavies, cal
ibre She is one Of the six frigaies recently
built and of the same class, or probably small
er than the twelve recently laid downior build
ing. The Morrimac, on her arrival, made for
the neighbOrhood of Spilhead, so as to give our
dockyard and naval authorities an opportunity
OF inspecting the style of vessels which would
have 'chawedrup' some Of our eighty-fours on
the West India station, had impolicy OF acei-
dent precipiiated MS into war. Now there
are not many, if there are any, vessels in the
British navy, Of the same class, a match for
the Merrimac The royal dockyaids, il they
are not behind the age in ship-buiding, are GER
lainly not ia advance of it. Our Surveyors gen
eral would seem to possess only the initiative
talent ola Chnaman. They originate nothing.
1t is only when every private ship-owner and
every foreign power that owns bumb,boat, has
adopted new discovery or improved an old
one, that we take il up, content TO follow in the
rear, when we ought to lead tho van. This is
bad ship-bulding poicy for great naval pow
er. Ii our navy ahoai be large or small, it
should be The most powerful and efficient of its
kind. We trust that the Merrimac may slim
ulale the energies Of our present surveyor-gen-
eral. He has just been made X C.B. Knight
Commander of the Bath for doing nothing he
can boast Of; let him now set to work and pro
mote such plans as will place our steam frigatG
navy individually upon an equality with, if moi
pre-eminently over, the vessels Of every Other
power"

THE TRUSTING HEART.

ny CHARLES NAcEAY.
Trusting heartl tho mon deceive thee,
Tho good fortunes neon be past,
Tho the friends of summer leave thee,
Fearful Of its wintry blast;
Love remains, If these forsake thee,
True, aye, truer than before;
Why should worldly sorrows break thee
Heart! take couragc-sigh no more.
What tho tempests gather o'er us;
Storms not always yex the sea;
Sunshine yet may CLEAN befure US;
There are calms for thee aud me.
Fortunes gills are unayailing,
Ours are giits she never bore;
Love unchanging, hope unfailing;
