his present positions:

The tOatyniqWet shake is the next in i'm
portance. 1t takes its name from the in
strument made use of by surgeons to stop
the circulation of the blood, in a limb
about to be amputated. 1t is performed
by clasping' the hand of your friend as far
as you can lRHohr own, and then contract
ing the muscles of your thumb, fingers,
and palm, till you have induced any de-
gree OF compression you may propose in
the hand of your friend. Particular care
ought to be taken, if your own hand is
hard and big as fryingpan, and that OF
your friend as small and soft as a young
madcn's, not to make use of the tOt1'n'-
gttet shake to the degree that will force
the smaltrboncs of the wrist out OF place.
1t is also seldom safe to apply it to equity
persons.
A hearty young friend of mine, who
had pursued the study of geology, and &C
quired an unusual hardness and strength
of hand and wrist by the use of the ham,
mer, on returning from Il scientific excur-
sion, gave his gouty uncle the tourniquet
shake with such severity as nearly reduced
the old gentleman's fingers to powder; for
which my friend had the pleasure Of being
dis inherited, as soon as his uncle's finger
got well enough to hold pen.
The c9sAliI grGpple is shake of some
| interest. 1t is q hearty, boisterous agita-
tion of your friends hand, accompanied
with moderate pressure, and loud, cheer
full Explanations of welcome. Its an ex-
cellent travelling shake, and we'll adapted
to make friends. 1t is Unfortunately
performed. The Peter Gr5evous touch is
Opposed-to the cordial grapple. 1t Is a
pensive,; tranquil junction, followed by a
mild subsultory motion, cast-down look,
and an inarticulato inquiry after your
| friends health. 49,.
The 9'raeae major aud 7,rade minor are
nearly mouepohzed by the ladies. They
can not be accurately described, but are
constantly to be noticed in practice. They
never extend beyond the fingers, ami the
prude major allows you to touch even
then only down to the second joint. The
prude minor gives you the whole of the
fore finger. Considerable skill may be
shown in performing these with nice varia,
tons, such as extending the left hand
instead of the right, or stretching a new
glossy kid glove over the finger you extend

The King stood still

The sackc!Oth from his brow, and laying back
The pail from the still features of his child,
He bowed MS head upon him, and broke forth
In the reslst!eSS elUquence OF wO:-
"Alasl my noble boy! that thou should diet
Thou, who vert made So beautifully fair!
That death should settle in thy glorious eye,
And leave his stiffness in this clustering hair!
How could he mark thee for the silent tomb,

Cold is thy brow, my son! and an chill,
As to my bosom have tried to press thee.
How was wont to feel my pulses thrill,
Like a rich harm string. vea"nlng to careSs thee,

The grave has won thee I shall hear the gush
OF music sad the voices of the young;
And life viii pass Inc in the mantling blush,
And the dark tresSes 20 the soft winds tung;-
But thou no more with thy sweet voice shall come

But oh! when am stricken, and my heart,
Like bruised reed, is waiting to be broken
lIow will its love for thee, as l depart
Yearn for thine to drink its last token!
It were SO sweet, aud deaths gathering gloom,
To see thee, A5saOm!
And now farewell IT'S hard to give thee up,
With death so like gentle slumber on thee
And thy dark SIN oh! could drink the cup,
If from this wo its bitterness had won thee.

lie covered up his face, and bowed himself
\ moment on Lis child: then, giving him
\ look of melting tenderness he clasPed
His hands convulsfvcy, if in prayer;
And, as strength were given him of God,
He rose up calmly, and composed the pail
and decpntly and left him there.
AS if his rest had been breathing sleep.

SORGHUM FLoUR.-We have sample of this -four,
made Of the seed of chinese cane, which may be
seen at our Office. The planter who sends it to us
had no means of beating this -FOUR nor had he
AIKEN off the hull of the seed before grinding, the
consequence is, that the -four has pinkiSh color
Those who have made trial of this excellent
-four represent it to be an admirable substitute for
buckwheat Made into hoecake it is very savory
bread 1t is likely to come into very general use
II prepared like wheat -four by boiling. The price
at which it can be offered in market may be assum,
ed at Sl5 to $40 per sack. But as an acre of sor
ghum yields from 80 to so bushels, $40 sack
would be remunerating price. The production of
his grain, the present year, in Georgia must
amount TO five millions Of bushels. We have this
great supply of food to fall back upon in the event
OF deficiency of the common cereals, wheat and
maize
The season for buckwheat cakes comes in next
month, with frost Let the lovertcf this bread try
tine substitute of Sorghum -four. 1t is represented
as being very Similar when prepared as the form
er is.
AS substitute for coffee no purchased grain or
vegetable ordinarily used as substitute is at all equal
to Sorghudfseed And what is still more valuable to
know, in the present scarcity OF sugar. small ouan-
tty of the syrup boiled with ground seed makes
the coffee substitute very pleasant and paatable-

From the Daily Telegraph

"FIAT JUSTITIA, RUAT CGLUM."
Mr.. EDITOR AS. there seems to be a
general feeling Of dissatisfaction with the
conduct Of Admired buchanan in the ma
val engagement off Fort Morgan, think
it but fair and just, fact generally I'M
known, but which in a great measure con-
tributed to the disaster, should be made
fully known in vindicatiCn of his course.
Admit ting all That has been said about
the Tennessee" her thickly coated shield,
powerful ram and heavy armament, still
there is one defect not mentioned, which
was her weak point and the principal
cause of this noble vessel striking her col
Ors. Hor tiiier ropes, or more explicitly
speaking, rudder chains, We're exposed
from her rudder head, along her transom
and quarters TO her shield; to conceal this
from view, hollow semi-circular piece of
cast iron, about all inch in thickness, was
placed over it. This, Of course was no
protection against the shot and shell of the
enemy's men of var; but this was the
fault of the contractors and constructors,
not of the naval officers.
Such was her condition when she went
into action, in which she gave SO good an
account of herself until she ceased TO obey
her helm. Alter the flimsy covering was
knocked to pieces, her steering gear became
visible and was soon shot away by the
belching cannon of the Northern fleet :;
then as a necessary consequence, she was
both ungovernablo and unmanageable.-
With her smokeStack and her escape pipe
RACED even with the grating of her air
ports, and her gun deck filled with smoke
and steam, she would still have been able
to continue the fight, or retreat under the
guns of Fort Morgan, had her helm been

to maneuvre or stir, pours broadside after
broadside, in quick succession, into her
with telling and deadly effect, while she
still defantly sends missiles of death and
destruction amidst her numerous assailants
from her fixed position.
Yet this is on y desperation, the inevi-
table result of the contest is apparent to
all.
1t must indeed have been CALLING TO
those brave hearts, who hoisted the signal
of "don't give up the shipl" entered the
fight SO gallantly and bore themselves so
well, 10 ina thelr vessel rendered helpleSs
and themselves in the hands of their adj
versaries through the fatal oversight of in
experienced ship builders. Their situation
was now torlorn and hopeless They must
now very soon sink and all hands perish
or surrender. The skill and proves of
Nelson could not save them. In this try
ing hour, suffering agonizing pains. from
his wound, and Indifferent of self, yet with
that regard for the lives of the men placed
under his charge which every commander
should have, the lion hearted Admiral re-
luctantly displays the white flag. Soon
after the great guns hushed in silence and
the Tennessee is lowed away as a prize to
the enemy.
Thus ended ono of the most terrific and
memorable naval battles on record. One
