There tones that will haunt us, though lonely
Our paths be DER mountain or sea:
There are looks that will not part from us only
When wemory ceases to be;
There are hopes which our burthen can tighten,
Though toilsome and steep be the way:
And dreams that, like moonlight, can brighten
With light that is clearer than day. rPraed

The voyage Of a Dream.

Sweep downwards, streams Of airl
And thou, my cloudy chariot, drop thy shade,
And draw round earth the triumph of our march,
Gee where, from zone to zone, the shadow moves

OF oceans foamy azure. lBayard Taylor.

The MAMMOTH STEAM BArTERY.-The n.
Y correspondent Of the National Intelhgea-
GER has the following in regard to Stevens
Steam Battery:
The great iron steam battery, building
for the Government by Mr.. Stevens of Ho-
boken, believe, is nearly at stand still
for want OF funds; the amount appropriated,
and which it was understood was to finish
her, being nearly Or quite exhausted. Great
secrecy is observed as regards her, and no
one is allowed admission. From an inteli-
gent party who had charge of portion of
the work upon her, | learn she is upwards
OF four hundred feet long, and is to be built
entirely of iron, and perfectly ball-proof,
even to the immense and powerful missiles of
the most modern invention Estimates
understand, have been forwarded to Wash
lngton that it will require 100000 more to
finish her; and if all hear about her is cor
rect, even that large sum will fall short of
the actual amount that will yet be wanted
She has two propellerS and three engines to
work each propeller Now as each shaft
has thus three engines to work it, they must
all move with the most uniform and mathe-
matical precision to work at all; for, of
course, one cannot make the smallest frac-
ton of revolution more or less than the
other two without deranging the action of
the propeller There are to be on board
other engines besides the above six, among
them two small ones as blowers, to keep up
high state of Ignition of the stone coal'

REsUscITATIoN FROM APPARENT DEATH
The Rockport Register gives the particulars
OF singular case of resuscitation after sup
posed death in that city:
A child had to all appearances died, and
was laid out in its little winding sheet upon
a board in an upper room, while the other
preparations were going forward for the
funeral. The sexton was notified and the
grave dug. Some time after, the father
went into the room where the child was.
and was astounded at its calling him by
name, and complaining that it did not lie
good. OF course the little sufferer was sup
piled with better bed at once 1t had
evidently fallen into trance, from which it
was awakened by hard bed and cold cir.

IHE JUVENILE OlblLEE.-I l. uC lOllOhlu
article, from the editorial columns of the
Vide West, was occasioned by a celebra-
ton and festival, at Russ Garden, by the
schools of San Francisco:
Life is q tree which in the spring time Of
existence brings forth those blossom-blesS-
ings we call children. And it is privilege,
an enjoyment, no less than grave duty, to
guard these promises of future fruit careful
ly, so that manhood shall not give the lie
to their early prophecy. In the share Of
public attention which the recent public
school examinations and exhibitions have at
tracted as evinced in the full reports given
in the daily press, we note cheering phase
in California existence. Blessed are the
homes whose bright tiny stars clustered in
these Observation-Disclosures blessed the re-
turn their beaming little faces gave to the
earnest hearts Ct those who listened or pre-
slider. at their gleeful gatherings If there
be an approach to idolatry which We may
ask Omnipotence to pardon, = is our souls
warnings toward the young; and he whose
ambition and accomplishment it is to win
the heart of an innocent child, lessons by a
long step the distance that divides him from
Heaven.
The common school is the guaranty of our
political liberty as it is principal element
of our social happiness. Happily is it termed
common, for such are natures sweetest gifts.
The pure air, that borrows perfume from the
flowers, and bears it to our grateful senses,
the generous sunlight, the smiling sky, the
refreshing rain, all are common-all are
blessed Let it be our proudest task to sec
not only that schools shall multiply, but
that they shall improve SO that from then
may be reared men who shall be worthy Of
the future that patriots picture for the re-
public. If we cannot give to the coming
past of which they may be as proud as We
are Of the deeds of our own foretathers, lei
them at least have occasion to thank us fol
having prepared them for the great work o.
redemption which is their destiny.
1t may not be our fate to witness either
Californias complete regeneration or even
her approximation to her destined greatness
1t may be that the Past chronicles all which
those now living of her adult children may
be able to accomplish for the Pioneer Pa
cihc State. 1t may be that our ears shall
not listen to the rattle Of the cars and th'
whistle of the locomotive that bridges tht
barbarous region which divides US from ou
sisters in civilization. 1t may be that evel
the telegraph, which elsewhere consigns dis
tance to death will never bear for us the
magic messages which bind interests to in
terests hearts to hearts, in spite of space
If it must be so, we have only to turn our
energies to efforts which, if more protracted
shall no. be less effective Climate oppor-
tunities and resources, combine to give US
aid in raising on the Pacific the finest race
of men the world has yet SEEN Let us then
earnestly and vigorously sustain the com
mon schools and if fatigue give us pause,
find new energy in the thought that Cali
fornias hope is California's children.

A MAN SHOT AT CoLUsr.-The Marysvile
Express of Friday, May 9th, is indebted to
Mr.. Berude, Lieutenant of Police, for the
following information. On Wednesday NOR
ming, at about 10 o'clock, Mr.. George Cow
hite, of Colusi, entered the American Hotel
with drawn dirk, and said he would have
revenge on John Purdy, proprietor of the
House. AS he was attempting to carry his
threat into execution by stabbing him, Pnrdy
drew o revolver and shot Cowhite in the
left side, breaking two ribs. The wound is
believed to be mortal. Purdy gave himself
up, and has been examined and discharged
on the ground that the shooting was in self

NV Cottage Home.

Ny cottage home is DER the hill,
Beside the waving trees,
The ivy clings around it still,
Unsever'd by the breeze;
The violets bloom as fair and sweet
AS when In mirth and joy
trod its walks with nimble feet,
A thoughtless, laughing boy.
The meadows look as bright and gay,
The streamlets onward onward run,
The rillets gambol on the way
And glitter in the sun;
Still on the mountain track hear
The gallant hunters horn,
Whose cheering cadence charms the ear
And wakes the drowsy morn.
But where are those used to love !
Their forms cannot see,
Fond youths and maids around me move,
But all are strange to me;
Some now lie hidden in their graves,
Cut off in hope and pride,
And some are toss'd upon the waves
or life's contingent tide.

LIFE IN AFRIcA.-Rev Mr.. Beachman, a
member Of the London Wesleyan Mission,
has recently returned from visit to Africa,
aud in his sketch of the social condition of
the negroes nhabting the Gold Coast and
its vicinity, he furnishes a truly awful pic
ture, as follows:
Scarcely oneiof their barbarous and bloody
customs have been abandoned, from the ear
liest period of which anything is known of
them They will even pave their court
yards palaces, and even the streets or M. r
ket places Of their villages or towns with
the skulls of those butchered ir war at
feastS, funerals, or as sacrifices 60 Bossum.
Still their wives and slaves are buried
alive with their deceased husbands or mas.
ters. when AG.abazen died, two hundred
ana eighty 81 his wives were butchered be-
fore tie arrival of his successor, which put
a stop to it, only to increase the flow OF
! blood and the number Of deaths in other
ways. The remaining living wives were
buried alive, amid dancing, singing, and be-
wailing, the noise of muskets, horns, drums,
marching by headesS trunks, bedaubed
themselves with mud and blood Their vic
tins were marched along with large knives
passed through their cheeks. The execu-
tioneers struggle for the bloody Office, while
the victims look on and endure with apathy.
They were too familiar with the horrible
sacrifice to show terror, or to imagine that
all was not as it should be- Their hands
were chopped off, and then their legs sawed
off, and then their head9 sawed off, to pro-
| long the amusement Even some who as
sisted to fill the graves were then hustled III
alive, in order to add to the sport or soem
nifty of the scene. Upon the death of the
Kings brother, four thousand victims were
thus sacrificed.
These ceremonies are often repeated, and
hundreds slaughtered at each rehearsal
/ Upon the death of the king of Ashantee, q
general massacre takes place, in which there
can be no computation Of the many victims
At their Yam customs, Mr.. Bowditcl
witnessed spectacles of the most appalling
nature Every cabocer, Or noble, sacrificed
a slave as he entered the gate. Heads and
skulls formed the ornaments in their posses
sion. Hundreds were slain; and the stream
ing and teeming blood Of the victims was
mingled in one vast pan, with various vege-
tables and animal matter, fresh as well as
putrid, to compose powerful Fetchie At
these customs, the same scenes of butchery
and slaughter occur The kings execution
ers traverse the city killing every one they
meet The next day desoiaton reigns over
the land. The king, during the bloody sat
urnalia, looked on eagerly, and danced in
his chair with delight.
The king of Dahomy paves the approaches
to his residence, and ornaments the battle
ments of his palace, with the skulls of his
victims; and the great Fetchie tree at Bo-
dary has its widespread limbs laden with
human carcasses and limbs. The want Of
chastity is no disgrace and lhe priests are
employed as pimps.
Murder, adultery and thievery, says Bos
man, are here no sim
