SUBMARINE SEARCH FOR LOST QUIcKsILvER:
A VALUABLE STONE FoUND.-A company
OF submarine workmen are now making a
second effort to recover seventy or eighty
thousand dollars worth of quicksilver, lost
by the sinking of the clipper ship Flying
Dutchmdn, on Brigantine Shoals, near Allan
tic City, New Jersey, in 1857. They are
meeting with much success. Among the
relics which they have already recovered is a
large, dark marble slab, measuring four feet
long by two feet wide and eight inches

ONE OF WALKERS MEN.-Col. Hen
ry, who recently died at Truxillo from a
wound received in a personal difficulty
with one of Walkers men, is the same
person who was so well known in this
city for his combativeness. He was a
man of remarkable courage, but of vi
client and turbulent temper, and was fire.
quently involved in personal broils and
duels. Perhaps no man ever lived to
his age who had received and survived
so many dangerous wounds. In every
battle and in nearly every duel in which
he was engaged, he was wounded. He
began his career in the ranks of the
American army in Mexico, and by his
daring and his dangerous wounds attract
ed the attention of his commander, and
was selected as one of the privates who
were promoted during the war to a COM
mission. At the battle Of Chepultepec,
Henry was one of the first of the storm
ing party to scale the walls of the enemy,
and, though dreadfully wounded, never
halted until he was within the walls of
the fort.
After the war was over, Henry, as
commissioned officer became involved in
some broi which resulted in his retire
ment from his position. He then went
to Nicaragua, joined Walker, and was
prominent in all the combats fought in
that country, and invariably received
wounds in every action. As if the ter
rible and uninterrupted conflicts of Wal
ker were not enough to satisfy his COM
bative spirit, Henry occupied his mo-
ments of leisure in personal combats
with some of his own companion in arms
aud was frequently wounded. In one o.
his duels in Nicaragua his thigh wa;
broken, which famed him for life.
Returning to this city after the expul
sion of Walker, he became involved il
a broil with one of his companions, ant
was badly wounded by him in a due
fought in the rear of the city. Not lon:
after, he had another difficulty with
gentleman of this city, by whom he wa
severely wounded. These are by N
means all the combats in which this re
markable man was engaged. Their
were those who had favorable opinio
of Col. Henry, and who gave him credi
for some good qualities. He was IN
doubtedly man of astonishing fortitudt
endurance and courage.-N. o. Delta.

WOULDN'T WORK WITHOUT Rum
Lewis and Sam d., couple of residents
of Long Island, who loved rum and ha-
ted snakes, some years since went down
to the salt marsh to NOW. They hung
their scythes and were about common
cling work, when Lewis proposed to Sam
that they should take drink of the quart
provided for the occasion. Sam agreed,
of course, and as it was hot day, and a
hard task was before them, they conclu-
ded to rest awhile under the shade of a
tree, and then take another drink, in or
der to get readily on. The bottle had
passed two or three times, when Sam
said to Lewis, Lets drink the darned
stuff up and we won't be hankering after
it." 1t was a bargain, and betwixt the
two the balance was soon disposed Of
A pause ensued. Lewis rose to his feet
and threw his scythe over his shoulder,
declaring, ''Tll be darned if I'll NOW
without rum" "Darned if l will, Ell
ther," says Sam, and with that they
shouldered their duds and trudged home
without cutting a swath.

END OF SUNDAY THEATRIcALs IN
New YoRK.-According to the New
York Times, the places where theatricals
have been performed on Sunday in that
city are now closed. The friends of mo-
ral;ty, religion, law and order, by wise
course of action have succeeded in en-
forcing the law. The result must be
truly gratifying to all who recognize the
Sabbath as divinely appointed institu-
ton. The Times says:
We are happy to record the general
subsection of the Sunday-Theatre propri-
etors to the laws of the State. A single
notorious offender still resists public sem
timent and defes the authorities; but a
little experience of the penalties OF vlo-
lated law, as soon as the indictments
hanging over his head can be reached,
may teach him a valuable lesson. We
understand that Eustachi's Volks Thea

From the Home Journal
THE HAWTHORN.

In a grand old garden, once there grew
Numerous flowers of every hue;
And gaunt old gardener, with silver hair,
Tirslessly toiled, through the proud parterre,
And fostersd the flowers which fiourished there u
And in that garden, but yet apart
FROM the stately circles Of formal art,
Withdrawn from the floral brotherhood,
On the verge of a sylvan solitude,
An unpretending Hawthorn stood!
And little OF beauty the Hawthorn blest,
With bis threatening spires and russell vest;
Yet, at times, he adorned that dreary place,
Wearing his blooms with a woodland graeei
So the kind old gardener gave him spaced
But the Hawthorn was without a mate,
And grieved in his solitary fate
He had, in his breast, vacant throne,
And wanted some gentle sway to own,
To love, and be loved-but he stood alone!
Alone-'tll It CHANGED one day he espied
A fair young ioweret by his side
A sweet Musk Rose, who seemed to raise,
TO the rugged Hawthorn trustful gaze,
As she timidly shrunk from the suns bright
blaze!
Time passed. and the seasons rolled away,
And the Rose grew fairer every day.
With graceful branches, and delicate stem,
Ard leafy, emerald dadem,
Where every dew-drop cleaned gem
And the Hawthorn sheltered her tender form
From the burning heat and the chilling storm;
A shade by day, and a shield by night
And the Rose reposed in the Hawthorn's might
And he loved the Rose, and his heart was light
But the gardener came, in an evil hour,
And placed by the Rose another flower
An Indian Jasmine, tall and fair,
Who tossed his bells in the odorous air,
And the Rose withdrew from the Hawthorn
care!
Then, about his figure the Hawthorn spread
fragrant mantle Of green and red
And he tried each art, which might restore
The love that had gladdened his life before,
But the Rose regarded him-no more!
And the Hawthorn grew lonelier day by day,
And sadly, and slowly, he pinned away
And when the old gardener next passed the BEE
He paused, and he bowed his trembling head.
And wondered to see the Hawthorn dead
Then, the heavens grew dark-and Temps
came,
With drifting foods, and wind, and flame
And, to and fro, as the Rose was swayed
In the pit;less blast with heart dismayed,
She turned to the Jasmine's arm for aid
But the fragile Jasmine had no power
To save the Rose in that fearful hour
And then she remembered the Hawthorn's car
And she cried to him with wild despair;
But the Hawthorn was gone, and the storm W
there!
And when the gardener came again,
He looked for the beautiful Rose in vain;
And the old man wept, wheE, at length, he foul
