THE AouARIA AT THE MUsEUM.--The proprietors
of the American Museum have walled themselves
of the growing mania for 'Aquaria," and will or
Monday next open for exhibition a magnificent col
lection of fishes, sea-plants and oil sorts of marine
monsters and curiosities, gathered from the ocean,
river and lake. We had the pleasure of examin-
ing their collection yesterday. The Aquaria oc'
cupy a large room, on each side of which are ar
ranged rows of glass water-tanks, thirty two in
number, and ranging from one and a half to six
feet in length. Within these tanks are displayed
from eight hundred to o thousand different speci-
meos Of the vegetable and animal lie of the water
The bottoms of the Aquaria are covered with an
inch or two of clean coarse gravel, upon which
are placed miniature piles Of rocks, fanciful!y ar
ranged, and growing upon these are various many
hued specimens of marine moses, plants, &c.
There is a large number Of zoophytes, which grow
upon the rocks like little palm trees, with spreading
branches but upon the slightest alarm suddenly
collapse, draw their branches ~togethes, and gather
into the smallest possible space.
The vegetable life keeps the water supplied
with oxygen, and many sorts Of curiously shaped
water snhils creeping among the rocks and plants
gather up the d~ecaying vegetable matter, and keep
he water pure and wholesome for the fishes
Considerable skill is required to properly adjust
the proportions of vegetable and animal life
Each aquarium has it's little assorted colony of fish,
es, sporting coutentedly among the rocks and pl ants
There are star fish ,sea-spiders soldier crabs, porgies
sun fish, bass. sinners, pike, club suckers, nevis,
lizards. trout, pike, pickerel, a host of fishes with
Latin names, and two Or three specimens whose
names are unknown, if they have names at ALL
The gambols and tricks of these gaily-colored
throngs are exceedingly pleasant to look upon as
well as instructive, and we are sure that the aquar-
ia will prove a decided chit" The effect Of the
rainbow hues Of the fishes, sporting among their
submarine groves and caves by g~as-lighU, we are
assured, is splendid. All the children at least
want to zee the aquaria.

From the Liberator.
II SLAYE.MOTHER

Lol a woman-trembling, frail,
With grief her tears express,
In the Market stood, for sale,
With her frst-born at her breast
But the babe was not her own:
For the child that God had made
Offspring of her flesh and bone
Was a living ware of trade!
Ere she wept her sorrows calm,
Lol her human heart was sold
For the silver, which the palm
Of human hand could hold
Gods own image in the martl
All! twas fragile merchandise
Broken in the breaking hearth
Melted in the weeping eyesl
Then another ~wounding thorn
Pierced the heart already stung:
Lo! the sucking babe was torn
From the bosom where it clungl
Then her mothers cry was wild
Then afresh her tears were shed
And she mourned her living child
Living but to her as deadl
Now the Slave was doubly bound
For, beside the chain she wore,
Grief enclasped her soul around,
Like a %fetter, evermore!
Never, though she quelled her cries,
Was the broken heart made whole
Never, though she hushed her signs,
Went the sorrow from her soul!
Ye whom human hopes or fears
Stir to gladnes or to woe;
Ye who weep at others tears,
And would wipe them when they flow;
Ye who feel another's pain,
And will hear another's plea
Go and break the bondman's chain
Go and set the captive free

GONE TO DINNER.--"Gone to dinner. Back in
fifteen minutes" That notice stands on your office
door.
My gobbling friend eating is rot a process whose
operation and results are wholly confined within
the stomach as flesh is nut to seethe or soak within
an iron pot, 1t tells upon muscles and vitals, and
brain and nerves-up0n mind and souls. Fifteen

cracker in and to drink Il glass of water and see

How dare you bolt these chunks of meat al
soaked with gravy, and that greasy, sodden pie
and hot cakes. and Kissing and colored coffee, and
then. while your miserable, over-worked old stom'
ach is calling for all the disposable nervous energy
of your system to help it drudge in its tyrant's
task, jump h~eadlong back into your dark, close
counting room. and demand that same nervous en-
ergy from the sames source to engineer your Brain
and eyes in the absorbing ~exertion Of making

Well, poor fellow. it's of no use to scold at you
after all. Pity is much more appropriate tt
your sad case. Who would be such a juiceless
dirt complexioned, d~ried-up husk, for all you
money. or all everybody's else? 1t is but a manned
soul and a deformed body that you have acquired
under that regimen. And when your old cracked
shaky constitution quite breaks up, and you die pre-
maturely--wretched man, who knows what miser

A HOME WITHOUT A MOTHER.

What is home without q mother ?
What are all the joys we meet
When her living smile 10 longer
Greets the coming Of our feet?
The days seem long, the nights are dreal
And time rolls slowly on
And o, how few are childhoods pleasures
When her gentle care Is gone.
Things we prize are first to vanish
Hearts We love to pass away;
And how soon even in our childhood, =
We behold her turning gray,
Her eyes grow dim her step Is slow. +
Her joys Of earth are past,
And before we learned y know her,
She hath breathed on earth her last.
Other hearts may have their sorrows
Griefs that quickly pass away;
But a mother lost IN childhood.
Grieves the heart from day To dav,
We miss her kind anI willing hand,
Her fond and earnest care
And o, how drear IS life around u.s.
What's home without mother there
