AWAY WITH GLOOM.
by JOHN YEoMAN.

Spun The lines which sorrow ,racest
Laugh the ills Of life away,
They who Wear the gladdesl faces
Always live the longest day.
Why complain, though fortune press thee
Why repine at lowly birth,
While contentment still may bless thee
With the joys of pealiog mirh?
Art though rich in pounds and rubles Z!
Dost thou sleep on beds OF downa
Laugh 10 see how vain the baubles
Which deceive the gaping clown.
What though now thy years are many,
And thy locks are turning gray;
Hast thou TO, hope of any
1op beyond thy mortal day.
Thou hast dreamed perhaps of glory;
Fate has held Thee under ban;
Still unknown to song or story,
Thou cansi be merry man.
Toll not afier gilded sadness;
Let not woe thy soul entice;
For the world Is full of gladness
Offered thee without price.
Dos, tnou speak Of cares and ,roublesi
Cares and troubles what are theyt
Nothing more than floating bubbles,
Which laugh may drive away.
Laugh, and charm the Fales TO listen;
Hoot all gloomy fancies down;
Thus shall Time forget TO hasten,
And cen Death relax his frown.

shreds or filamen,s, SO that it will appear like
huge broom or bundle OF lalhs. Light.
ming bolts will occasionally dash through re.
sisling objects by tearing great openings, as
in Cornish church, where ape,tures were
made in the solid wall of the belfrey iour-
teen inches deep, and as II cut ont by art. Ia
other instances small holes are drilled which
are surprising for their perfect citcularily Of
form. Window panes have been frequently
pierced in this fashion, without effec,ing the
rest of The glass. In forming these aperlures,
burr or projection is left upon the edges.
Juvenile electricians are in the habit OF
making holes in cards by passing discharges
through them when burr OF projection will
be observed on both sides of the orifice--
Sometimes single discharge will produce
two holes in card, each puncure marked
by single burr, one on the upper and the
other on the under part of the card. In some
instances the results are such as TO suggest
that flash may be split up into several fiery
filaments before it strikes an object. In
1777 a weathercock Of timed copper was
hurled by ihrnderboll from the top of a
church in Cremona, and, upon inspection,
was found to be pierced with eighteen holes (;
in nine of them the burr was conspicuous
on one side, and in nine ii was equally
prominent OIL the other, while The slope Of
the burr was identical in all.
Among the cunosilies of lightning are
what is termed "fulgurities, or tubes, which
the lightning constructs when il falls upon
sillicious spot, BY fusing the sand, They
may be called casts of thunderbolis. In
some hillocks Of sand in Cumberland, Eng
land, these hollow tubes have been found
from one-fiflieth to two inches in diameter,
iapering perhaps 10 mere point. The en-
tire extent of the tubes may be thirty feet,
but they usually separate into numerous
branches, and have the appearance of the
skeleton of an inverted tree. They are lined
with glass as smooth and perfec, as If il had
been made 10 glasshouse.

DISASTERS ON THE LAKEs.-The present
season has been remarkable for the great
number Of marine disasters which have oc-
cuned. The losses upon our inland seas ate
greater in number and fatality than have
ever been known before in the same length
OF time. From an imperfect list of lost YES.
sells which has been published, we see there
has been six steamers, nine propelers, two
tugs, five brigs, and ,wen,y.eighl sohooners,
either burned or wrecked. Several have
never been heard from. At least Two hnn.
dred lives have also been lost.
