srlla Pass of Death.

( 1t was d narrow pass, 8 %
Watered with human tears,
I ForD Death had kept the outer gate
4 Almost six thousand years. VI
And the ceaseless tread Of a worlds feet ="
Was ever in my ears
/ Thronging, jostling, hurrying by,
j AS if they were only born to die.
"A stately king drew near, '''' '-.'...'-'
This narrow pass to tread, :.
Around him hung q gorgeous robe,
And a crown was on his head I;
But Death, with look Of whitening scorn,
Arrested him and said,.,
In humber dress must the king draw near; :.
For the crown and the purple are useless here"
Next came a man of wealth,
And his eye was proud and bold,
And he bore in his hand a lengthy scroll,
Telling of sums untold;
But Death, who careth not for rank,
Careth as little for gold a.
!" Here that scroll cannot allow, w.
For the gold of the richest is powerless now"
Another followed fast,
And n book was in his hand,
Filled with the flashes of burning thought
That are known in many land;
But the child of genius auailed to hear
Deaths pitless demand
Here that book cannot enter with thee :
For the bright flash of genius is nothing to me-"
Next came maiden fair,
With that eye so deeply bright,
That stirs within you strange sweet care,
Should you meet on q summer night;
But death, ere the gentle maid passed through,
Snatched away its light
+" Beauty is power in the world he saith,
sBut what can it do in the Pass Of Death"
A youth of sickly mien
Followed in thoughtful mood,
Whose heart was filed with love to God
And the earthly brotherhood;
Death felt he could not quench the heart
That lived for others good
Z" l own cried he, q the power of love,
must let it pass to the realms above!

Big FISH AND TALL FrsH1NG.-Under this cap.
ton the Mobile Register, of Thursday morning, has
the following fish story:
To thousands of cur citizens the enormous size
and occasionally large number of g Devil Fish, seen
at, about the mouth of bay are quite familiar
and of the biggest, became yesterday the prey Of
all indomitable sea hunter, Captain Trelethen of the
ship Robert Parker. While on board, or alongside
the Col. Clay, the feet the Captain espied some
three or four of these monsters of the Deep and has
ening to get his harpoon, proceeded in chase of the
largest. With the praGticed aim of whaler, he
drove the harpoon through him, and the wounded
eviathen leapt high in the air before he dared off with
the Captain and his cinker-built gig rushing
through the water at an awfulspeed. 59
After chase of some ten miles the harpoon drew
out, but the wounded brute marked his place in the
water by his blood and even returned upon his trail
but the Captain, having spliced his weapon, again
drove itsecurely into the huge beast, who. far from
being exhausted, carried his boat away again with
even accelerated speed. After a long and exciting
chase the Captain returned with his prize, which is
reported to measure sixteen feet from fin to fin
acrossaud nearly forty feet in length. 1t is expect
ed that the will be forwarded up to the city
to-day, in order to convince all sceptcs that save in
the simple and unusual matter of TRUTH this is no fish
story.

DERIVATION OF THE WORD "CAsH"-There can
be but little doubt that the word cash is derived from
the Italian cassa, the chest in which Italian mer-
chants kept their money, do at the present time
the Spaniards in their cgia, and the Portuguese in
their cara and the Frech in their caisse.
The application Of the word cash to money is alto
gether English, it not having corresponding term in
any other European language
Cash having been so inconsiderably adopted instead
of casa, (chest entries in the cash book lit should
be chest book) are made in English contingencies
in this unmeaning way: Cash Dr." and Cash Cr;n
whereas the chest and not the money is DR.. for what
is put into it, and CIR, for what is taken out
Great mischief has too often arisen, as is well
word cash. in which large deficiencies often appear,
and which would not be the case if the word chest
were used it ought to be- Instead of the cash &C.
count in the ledger, it should be chest account but
we have yet much to learn in England regarding mer
camille bookkeeping. Notes and Queries.

DR.. Mayo relates that an idiot in the hospital of
sazburg, appearing to be sngularly nsusceptible of
fear, an experiment of an appalling chaacterand APP
paliing consequences was made upon him as means
Of putting his susceptibility to the test 1t was pro-
posed TO produce in him the impression that he saw
dead man come to life. A person, accordingly, had
himself laid out as corpse and enveloped in. a
shroua; and the idiot was ordered to watch over the
dead bnty. The idiot pereeiying some motion in the
corpse desired TO lie stll but the pretended corpse
raising itself spite of this admonition the idiot
seized i Ratchet, which unluckily was within his
reach, and cut off first one of the feet of the unfor
thnate counterfeit and then, unmoved by his cries,
cutoff his head. He then calmly resumed his station
by the real corpse.n

Tue STORM IN LAFAYETTE PARISH. : The Ver-
inonsille Echo, of the 10th inst has the following
disastrous rain Storm such has had no parallel
in these regions for the last twenty years, came in
rafting and roaring last Sunday, and continued its
frightfal work during two days and nights, tearing
down houses, trees, and fences swelling, beyond de-
scrption, our bayous, gulhes and ponds.
The bridges of the parish were swept away, and
we stand without possible communication with the
neghhoring parishes for some days yet to come.
Our village has mournful appearance; very few
trees have withstood the wind and several houses
have heen upset and considerably damaged. We
learn that Messrs a. Moutons and Valsaint Martins
sugar houses have been torn down by the gust. A
mulatto boy, belonging to Mr.. Lewis Mouton and a
Mexican, lost their lives in the prairie. We hear OF
