AIR, MD. FRIDAY MORNING. JULY H. 1865

"Bingen on the Rhine" Indeed, we
think Mrs. Norton the Queen of woman
poets. Her Dedication of her poems,
addressed to the Duchess of Sutherland,
can, in impassioned beauty, vie with any
poem Of Byron's, while in its moral tone
it is pure and elevated. We cannot for
bear quoting verse from it:
'Thy pale and pearly cheek was never made
To crimson with faint, false-hearted shame !;
Thou didst not shrink-of bitter tongues afraid,
Who hunt in packs the object of their blame !;
To thee the sad denial still held true,
its mercy drew"
Miss Proctor is also very happy in her
lyrical poetry. Her best pieces, we think,
are ga Woman's CUES ion," and "The
Legend of Provence" All her poetry
inculcates lessons of Christianity
But we have too long monopolized the
attention of the reader, SO we will close
our essay with those lines of Miss Cook,
from piece called "Nature's Gentleman
1t teaches lesson many might learn with
great advantage to their manners:
"The orphan child the triendless one, the luck
less or the poor,
Will never meet his spurning frown, or leave his
bolted door;
His kindred circles all mankind-his country,
all the globe;
An honest name his Jewell'd star, and truth his
ermine robe.
He wisely yields his passions up to Reason firm
control;
His pleasures are of crimeless kind, and never
faint the soul; . .r
Hea0ounds no breast Nth jser or jest yet bears no
honied tongue;
He's social with the grey-hair'd one, and merry
with The young;
He gravely shares the council speech, or joins
the rustic game, .'T
And shines as Natures gentleman, IN every place
tie same"

COFFIN CANvAss.-Two Spanish officers
recently met to fight duel outside the
gates of Bilboa, after the seconds had fail.
ed to reconcile the belligerents. At this
moment poor fellow approached the
second, and in a lamentable voice, said {:
"Gentlemen, am poor artisan, with a
large family, and if you would" "My
good man, don't you see my friends are
going to spit each other? We are not in
a charitable humor" cit is not aims /
ask for" said the man; 81 am poor
carpenter, with eight children, and my
wife is sick; and having heard that these
gentlemen were about to kill each other,
I thought of asking you to let me make
the collins" At these words the individ.
uals about to commence the combat burst
into loud ct of laughter, simultaneously
throwing down their swords, shook hands
with each other, and walked away.

EARMERS'
WEATHER INDICATOR,
OR,
WO0druff's Portable Barometer.

THIS INSTRUMENT should be in
i the hands Of every Agriculturist, as it
unerringly points out any change in the
weather, and thus directs the farmer how
TO shape his work and save crop that,
without a Barometer, might be caught out
and seriously injured, if not destroyed.
II is simple in construction, cheap in
price, not liable to get out of order, and
the only perfect, portable Barometer in
use. Being Mercurial Barometer, it is
accurate and reliable for scientific pur-
poses, and is used by the q. S. Coast Sur
vey, and at the Smithsonian Institute,
Washington, besides being recommended
by the most distinguished agriculturists Of
the country, as well as by a host of pro-
fessors and scientific journals.
We name few that have endorsed this
Barometer as superior to all others: Sci
entifc American, American Agriculturist,
Country Gentleman, Boston Journal, Phil.
Ledger, Marshall P. Wilder, Orange Judd,
Professors Henry, Hackley, Holmes, Carr,
Williams, Douglass, SC.
lie Cost OF lne instrument is Wltnln
the reach of all, ranging in price from ~
to 1928. We have five different styles,
from plain maple case to the finest carved
rosewood Most of these styles have a
Thermometer attached. Styles of this in

A SAILORS LOVE OF FAIR PLAY.

A SAILORS LOVE OF FAIR Play
In ship yard in Pembroke, the other
day, tar from a man-of war was OBJ
served watching two men dragging a
scven-foot cross-cut saw through a huge
oak log. The saw was dull, the log
very tough, and there they went-see-
saw, see-saw, pull, push, push, pull
Jack studied the matter over a while,
until he came to the conclusion that they
were pulling to see who would get the
saw, and as one was an immense big chap,
while the other was little fellow, he de.
cided to see fair play; SO, giving the big
one blow under the ear that capsized
him, he jerked the saw out of the log,
and giving it to the small one, he sung
out, Snow run, you beggar."

THE UNwRITTEN POEMS.

There are poems unwritten and songs unsung,
Sweeter than any that ever were heard
Poems that wait for an angel tongue,
Songs that but long for Paradise bird.
Poems that ripple through lowliest lives
Poems unnotei and hidden away
Down in the souls where the beautiful thrives,
Sweetly as flowers in the airs of May.
Poems that only the angels above us,
Looking down deep in our hearts may be-
hold
Felt, though unseen, by the beings who love
us,
Written in lives, all in letters of gold.
Sing to my soul the sweet song that thou
Invest
Read me the poem that never was penned-
The wonderful idyl of life that thou givest
Fresh from thy spirit, 0 beautiful friend

Reconsideration In Price.


ncan-Reductioni In Price.
From and after the first day OF August, 1865,
the price Of the DAILY REPUBLICAN will be
THIRTY cents per month.
When we raised the price Of our paper in July,
1854, we were compelled to that step on account
OF the Increase In the price OF labor and material
of all kinds. The cost Of paper has fallen con-
siderably during the past month. The price Of
labor has not fallen, and there Is no probability
that wages will be reduced for some time to
come. But, believing that we shall receive large
accessons TO our list Of subscribers by being lib
eral in our prices, we have decided upon the re-
duetlon named above.
II Is the purpose OF the proprietors to con.
tinue to make the REPuBLIcAS q first class news
paper, improving as we go along, giving more
attention to local and departmental affairs than
we have been able to do In the past, because Of
the pressure Of war news upon us
The space aud time heretofore necessarily
given to the promulgation Of "bloody battles, +"
on sea and land, will be much more agreeably
devoted In the future to the development Of the
resources Of tho country through the various
bureaus Of the several Departments Of the Gov
eminent.
The local news Of the city will receive the
special attention Of tho proprietors OF the REPUD
LcAS. Thorough and accurate reports Of all pub
lie and noteworthy events in tho District will be
promptly published.
We have made arrangements to have the RE-
PUBLICAN delivered promptly and regularly to
subscribers In all parts Of this city and George

promptly notifying us Of any remlssness on the
part Of carriers.
