as some shad, are now being caught along the
Delaware river. Eight thousand herring were
caught in the locks MT Delaware CITY last Mon

they are effectual'y penned. Then they arc
taken cut on Monday morning by means of

A TElROBBING HEART.
h many throbbing heart of pain

All many throbbing heart fpain
Doth beat beneath a siiken vest,
And many a wild and paintiye strain,
Disturb the honest poor mans breast;
For life hath many a joy and care,
That oft concealed avoid gaze,
And this old world hath many a snare
Hidden within a golden maze.
The tickle smiles Of fashion lend
sickly charm to eartbward aims,
And men, alas in folly bend
To pay the debt which custom claims.
The world Is growing old in strife,
And gold, by man oft deemed divine,
Usurps the noblcr powers Of life,
And makes the pure in heart to pine.
Those spirits who but dare to soar,
Like eagles in their dauntless flight
The realms Of knowledge to explore,
And yield the minds Of men more light
All rarely will they know the bliss,
A peoples gratitude should raise
Their worth. A future agc--not this-
Shall recognize aud ring their praise.
oh IL there not a singing smart,
Deep felt when hackneycd worldings chido,
And hcndish Ike, cnslaye ihe heart,
To add more splendor to their pride
Mnd-hcart- Rifts Of priceless worth,
Are slaves 20 Mammon, and Oft crushed
while men, esirangcd upon the earth,
Go forth With features warmly Gushod.
Great Spirit of The World, how long
Shall Weakness. Purity and Truth
Remain oppressed MsmiDon strong
Makes earth the scene of joyleHs ruth
A plague moro fearful than the scourgc
That visits on the favored land,

Tho air is taiuird by IL, breath.

BENZINE IS DANGERoUs.--Says the
Pittsburg Gaaettc We are informed
that several cases of the spontaneous
ignition Of benziue have recently occur
red in our vicinity, two near East Lib
erty, and one in West Pittsburg. Cloths
saturated with this fluid, which had
been used by grainers, were carclessly
thrown in some tuck.a-way corner a
mougsr other rubbish, and combustion
generated by chemical action ensued.-
The article Of benzine is very demon
Of fire, and must be guarded with all
possible preoaution, or it will make sad
havoc. ltcannot be handled too care
fully.

he took horse from q pasture near
Camp Douglas, belonging to- j. i. Han
cock, formerly President of the Board

on suspicion Of having stolen the horse,
and was lodged in the Kankakee jail
He was taken out on writ Of hdbeas

him, he was discharged.
Coming thence to this city he obtained
