BENEATH THE DEEP SEA

THE MERMAID'S song.
O, come, love, and dwell
Forever with me,
In bright crystal cell
Beneath the deep sea,
Where rich coral wreaths
In red clusters glow,
Our warm vows we'll breathe
As We wander below.
The sweet voices tone,
Like soft-murmer'd rhyme,
Shall mingle alone
With the waters low chime;
And the glance of thine eye
Through the clear depths shall glow,
Like stars of the sky
When reflected below.
Then come to my home
Beneath the deep sea,
Where the pcarly beds glitter
A welcome for thee,
And the sweet gentle tones
OF the mcrmaid's song,
Fill all thy soul
In its bright crystal home.

IMPORTANT MEDICAL FAcT.-One of our
Philadelphia exchanges gives an account OF an at
tempt to commit suicide, few days ago in that
city, and saws that though two ounces and half of
laudanum had been taken, and nothing had been
done for several hours, the unfortunate man was
saved and restored rapidly by artificial respiration
This is an important discovery in medical science,
if true, not so much on account of wOuld-be sui
cides, as to those who sometimes take over doses OF
laudanum or other preparations of opium through
mistake The experiment is worthy the trial II a
case should unfortunately occur in which It's ettl-
cacy could be tested.

WHY DISTINGUISHED MEN HAVE uNDIsTIN-
GU1sHED CHIIDREN-At the meeting of the
New England Historico-Genealogical Society, the
Rev. Mr. Richardson, of bingham, read paper on
the cause of Dcgeneracy in Offspring of Excellent
and Illustrious Progcnitors. He summed up
his argument follows: Two causes seem to
me the greatest and most efficient in producing
degeneracy or decline of families, and Of States
and Empires l. Institutions of government and
religion, or education based in principles
and managed by selfish ambition for power and
fame. 2 Domestic culture managed to subserve
the causes that lead to degeneracy.

THE AGE OF MAN.-But few men die of age
Almost all die of disappointment, passion, mental
and bodily toll, accident. The passions kill
men sometimes, even suddenly. The common
expression, "chokcd with passion" has little
cxaggcration in it; for, even though not suddenly
fatal strong passion shOrtens life. Strong bodied
men often die young; weak men live longer than
the strong; for they their strength and the
weak have none to The latter take care of
themselves, the former do not-As it is with the
body, so it is with the mind and temper The
strong are apt to break, or, ike the candle, 1un
the weak burn out. The inferior animals which
live, in general, temperate lives, have generally
their prescribed terms of years. The horse lives
% years, ID or 20, the lion about 90 the dog
about 10 or - the rabbit 8, the Guinea pig from
to 7. These numbers all bear a similar pro-
portion to the time the animal takes to grow to
its full size but of all the animals, is the one
that seldom comes up to this average. He ought
to live hundred years according to this physologi-
cal law; for five times twenty are one hundred-but
instead of that he scarcely reaches on an average
four times his growing period; the cat six times
and the rabbit even eight times the standard of
the measurement The reason is obvious-man is
not only the most irregular, and the most intem-
perate, but the most laborious and hard worked
Of all animals. He is also the most irritable of all
animals; and there is reas on to believe, though
we cannot tell what animal secretly feels, that
more than any other animal man cherishes wrath
to keep 1t warm-and consumes himself with the
fire OF his own secret reflections
