tn’ THE AUTHOR. OF “ Itrciir-:i.iUE.”
I’ve sat and seen one bright wave chase
Its ‘fellow on the strand,
They fall away, nor leave a trace
Upon the printkss sand-
Though scarce the pebbles felt the shock
The waves have worn the solid rock!
I've sat and heard the autumn wind
Amid the branches play,
So softly mild. so blandly kind,
It scarcely stirr"d the spray-
Yet soon it bore spring’s verdant birth
To wither on its native earth.
I’ve sat and seen the evening sun
Sink from the golden sky,
IIis long bright race of glory run,
And close his golden eye; _
So slow he passed, scarce changed. the light,
And yet he left the world in night.
And like you sea is humble life,
Events, like billows, roll,
Moment, on moment, strife on strife,
That change us, to the soul ;
And joys, like’iiuttimn leaves fall fast-
Ilope sets—a.ud being’s light is past.
I’ve stood on earth's most daring height,
And seen day's ruler rise,
In his magnificence of ligltt .
To triumph through the skies.
And all the darkness of the world.
Far from his shining presence hurled.
All. too, that fades upon the earth,
Too weak to linger here,
Re-blossoms with a second birth,
To deck the coming year;
Shall hope, then, man's eternal dower,
Be frailer than a failing flower!
Ah no ! like autumn leavestliat die,
That bloom again in spring,
Fresh joys shall rise from those gone by,
And purer incense bring,
And when, like suns, hope sets in night.
Shall she not beam from worlds more bright!

A SAILOR’S DREAM.
Capt. N , ofthe UniiedSta'es Navy,
a highly meritorious oliicer, was ordered,
in the year 1817, to take out the flag ship
to the West Indies. (It was, I believe,
the Constellation.) At the Island of St.
Thomas, several of our vessels of war were
to rendezvous; and Com. Perry would
there come on board the Constellation,
and take the command ofthe squadron, for
the purpose of scouring the pirates from
the haunts they infested. Perry had sail-
ed a short time before in the corvette John
Adams. Capt. N. sailed on slowly, an-
noyed by head winds and detained by
calms. One night he dreamed he was
standing on his quarter deck admiring the
view of sea and sky, when he suddenly ob-
served that sort of confusion at the gang-
way which announces the arrival of a vis-
itor. He looked in that direction, and saw
advancing, Capt. Gordon, who had died
some years before in the Mediterranean
service. He felt, as we usually do, when
we dream of the departed, a conscious-
ness that they are dead, yet no surprise to
see them alive and performing all the ac-
tions of living menodiscrepiiucics that
dreams alone can reconcile. Gordon po-
litely saluted him,and then inquired,“wItli-
er he was bound P” Capt. N answered “I
am going out as Perr_v’s captain, who will
hoist his flag on board at St.. Thomas.”-—
“No,” said Capt. Gordon, “that you ninst
not expect to see, for Perry now belongs
to my squadron ; look round, and you will
be convinced.” He then pointed over
the side of the ship. Capt. N. looked in
the direction designated, and saw what
appeared to be an island, with a town and
fort; flags of various vessels and of the
fort were hoisted half—tnast high ; minute
guns were firing; a vessel lay out in the
road, at a distance from the land, also with
marks of mourning;--presently, two or
three boats shot into view from the side
of the vessel nearest the land, containing
officers, and rowed slowly by with muflled
oars; then another boat with music and
muflied d:ums, playing a dead march ; and
last of all came a boat with a coffin, cov-
ered with black, a military hat and sword
lying on it, and surrounded by several offi-
cers, seemingly in deep grief: he saw the
procession glide with measured strokes to-
ward the town, and plainly heard the min-
gled sounds of bells ringing, music playing,
and the cannon firing. Ile continued
looking, lost in anxiety and wonder,
when some accidental noise in the ship
aroused liitn from his sleep. He felt his
mind so strongly impressed with this awful
dream, tha‘. to sleep again was quite im-
possible; he lay restless till morning: he
then assembled his oflicers, and told them
all the particulars—for sailors are proverb-
ially superstitious—they agreed to put
down the day of the month, &c.
After a few days sailing they iriade the
island of St. Thomas, wheielay the cor-
vette John Adams—a boat soon put oil‘
from her, when they were informed that
Commodore Perry had died on board, of
yellow fever, and been actually buried on
shore with a procession of boats and on
the very day of the month on which Capt.
N had had the wonderful dream.
I may have made some unimportant er-
rorsin this account of time or place, as
it was told to me seven or eight years ago ;
but my memory as to the essentials is cor-
rect .and I believe I tell it, (without any
attempt at making a fine story,) exactly as
Capt. N. told it himself to me.
TIIRILLING STORY.
_An extr_aoidinary story is told by Cap-
tain Wallace, ofa lover and his mistress,
who were saved in a singular manner from
the jaws of a shark. A transport, with
of Colney; one of the officers . was lean-
ing over the poop railing conversing
with a young lady who had inspired him
with the tender passion. The fair was in
the cabin-, and in the act of handing a pa-
per to her lover when, over reacliiiig her-
self, she fell into the sea, and, supported
by her clothes, drifted astern; the officer
lost no time in plunging in after her-, and
upheld her with one arm. The sails were
quickly backed, the ship lay in, and pre-
parations were made to lower a boat,wlion,
to the dismay of all on board, a large
shark appeared from under the keel of the
vessel, and gliding towards his victims; a
shout of terror from the agonizcd specta-
tors called the attention of the officer to
the approaching danger ; he saw the mon-
stei’s fearful length nearing him; he made
a desperate effort. plunged and splashed
the water so as to frighten tlie;sharl~., who
turned and dived out of sight. The cur-
rent liad now carried the officer and the
lady close to the vessel; then the shark
appeared a second time alongside, and was
in the act of turning on his back to seize
one ofthe hapless pair, when a private of
the officer’s company, who was standing
in the hammock iiettings,_jumped fearless-
ly overboard with a bayonet in his liaud,
which he plunged into the back of the
shark, which, instantly disappearing, the
three were released from their perilous
situation.
A LAW ANECDOTFY.
A plain well iritentiotied man, a far-
mer, who appeared to be blessed with
strong intellectual faculties, once set a
matter very clear in the Court of King's
Bench.
On a trial before Lord Mansfield, an
action was brought to ascertain sotne priv-
ileges concerning the boundaries of two
parishes, upon which a great deal of mo-
ney was spent, to elucidate a qucstioti
which was not oftliiee-pence consequence
to either party. In the course of the ti ial,
Lord Mansfield having taken notice of
some strong pointed observations which
had fallen from the farmer, he begged
leave to ask him a few questions, merely
for information, concerning the customs
of overseers, and other officers, who uran-
aged the parish money. The farmer, with
great clieerfulness, appeared ready to sat-
isfy him, and his Lordship said. " In the
course of your evidence, I think you nieii-
tioned, that the parish money was often
very iniprudeiitly applied : now. I don’t
mean to insinuate that you would be likely
to misuse it ; but as you have mentioned
that you were once a cliurcliwarden, ifyou
have no objsction,I should wish to hear
what was done with the niouey at that
time.” “ Why, my lord,” said the far-
tner, “I’ll tell you : the money was worse
applied when I was cliurchwarden than
ever I knew it in my life." “ Indeed,"
said his lordship, ‘ I should be glad to
know how.’ ‘ \Vhy my lord,‘ said the
farmer, ‘ a gentleman who had lived some
time amongst us, went into Yorksliirc,
where he died ; in his will he bequerulied
about 1201. to the poor ofour parish. We
applied for it often, and often, but it would
not do--tlie executors and the lawyers,
and one ornnother, were glad to keep the
money in their hands; for you know, my
lord, ’tis an old saying, that ’ might can
overcome right ;'--well we did not know
what to do ; I came to your lordship for
advice ; you were then Councellor Mur-
ray. I renieniber, my lord, you advised us
to filea bill in Chancery : we"did so, and
after throwing away a great deal of good
money after bad,we got, I think what they
calla decree, and such a decree it was,
that when all expenses were paid, I reck-
on we were about one hundred and seven-
ty five pounds out of pocket.
“ Now, my lord, I leave you to judge
whether the parish money was not worse
employed while I was chui-chwarden,tliaii
ever it was before.”
‘From the New York Farmer.
Grafting.—Tlie new method is thus de-
scribed in a letter from David Powel, Esq.
inserted in thcLondon llorticultural Trans-
actions, vol. v. I shall only introduce
the essential directions.
“Grafting wax properly prepared, when
in a melted state, is spread evenly on sheets
of moderately thin brown paper, which
when cold is cut into strips about three
quarters of an inch wide. When one of
these strips is to be used, warm it with the
breath, and bind it round the stock and
scion, pressing it gently with the hand,
when it will be found to adhere so close-
ly as totally to exclude both air and moist-
urc. No further care is necessary, though
it may be as well to look over the grafts
occasionally, pressing the paper close
with the hand where it may have before
been occasionally missed.” This plan of
applying wax cements instead of clay,
struck me at once, as not only exceeding-
ly simple, but admirable for its neatncss.
I accordingly treated 100 grafts in this
mode. I procured some course, but strong
and flexibleibrown paper, made of taired
cordage, and having pr.-pared the grafting
wax, by the recipe suhjoined, I spread it
with great facility by a common table
knife, "over the paper evenly. It cools in-
stantly. then cut it into strips of about
an inch.wide. In a warm sun it requires
no heating—- but in a cool day, the hrealh
will warm it sufliciently. As soon as the
graft is inserted and tied with matting, or
twine, the Strip is wound round from the
bottom of the cleft, to the insertion, and
‘ sawed end, and doubled over that. The
Opertititin requires five seconds only, and
the air is. most effectually excluded",
I put in grafts with clay, and with this
new method, and the success of the last
was much greater than with the clay. Six
weeks have now elapsed and the covering
a part of a regiment on board was sail-
ing with a gentle breeze along the coast

George Schafif and the Salamandtr
Hat.—Wliils‘t Scliaffur was at a tavern in
Epping, N. H., be noticed a raw looking
would be dandy sort of a fellow, strutting
about, with all the consequence allowable
to persons who wear new hats and fine
clothes’: and thinking this to be a fine op-
portunity for enjoying a little sport at the
pumpkin’s expense, he accordingly addres-
sed himself in a very respectful manner
to the fellow, in the following words:-—
“ A beautiful hat that of yours, sir: pray,
young gentleman, ifI may be so bold, what
did you give for that liat P” " Eight dol-
lars,” said the fellow with an air ofconse-
quoncc. “ But eight dollars? Indeed,
‘sir! VVliy Ipreteiid to know something
about hats, helm? a batter myself,-—-and I
consider that liiit to be as hiiicli worth
twenty dollars as the one I wear myself,
which I gave twenty five for, by the gross.
Why, sir, they are very scarce--very few
ofthe salamrzncler hats imported now-a-
days.” “ What are they ?—-salamander
liats I” said the fellow.—“ To be sure,”
said Schaffor, “did you never hear of the
salamander hats, that are made of a sub-
stance called Asbestos, which resists the
action of heat 'l—-so that if you should
leave one in the fire an hour, it wot.ldu’t
burn.” “ What,” said the fellow, “wont
my hat burn, if I should go to stick it into
that are grate '9” “ Burn I” bellowed
Scliaffer, starting in his peculiar mariner.
" to be sure the salamander hats nt-ver
burti I" “What will you but now, that
my hat wont burn .7” said the fellow, ta-
king offhis hat and examining ii. “ Bet .7”
said Schaffer, " I never out; yet, as 1
am positive in this c:i:c, I will bet a glass
ofpop, that that hat, (as it is a salamander
hat,) wont burn, ifyou should leave it in
the fire two minutes.” “ Yon’ll bet that
my hat wont burn, ifI should go to poke
itinto that are grate '3” “ Yes,” replied
Sclialfcr. “ Dorie,” said the o.lior, and
immediately thrashing his hat into the
grate, (which was well filled with Lehigli)
he had the satisfaction of seeing it con-
sumed in less time than was stipulated in
the bet ; while he was prevented from
rescuing it by the company, who afli med
that they could see no cheating in the mat-
ter, anéi that the hat sliouldremain the ap-
pointe time. After the hat was consum-
ed, Schaifcr turned rouiitl, and said in a
melancholy manner, “ here, landlord, give
the yotihg gentleman a glass of pop-I’ve
lost my bet !"
Popular Sentiment —New York is the
largestand most powerful state in the Un-
ion; yet in no one ofthe twenty-three
others is popular sentiment so fltictuaiing
or political revolutions so rapid and fre-
quent. VVithin a very few years they have
had all sorts of names; which have risen
tip and flourished for a iime,and then re--
ceded to give ascendancy to some new
combinzitiou. The watch-word now is
“ The People ;"’ and the elements of the
last new party, whose orgatiization is not
vet completed, are made up of “ Farmers,
Mechanics, and \Vorking Men.” These
are sounds which must tickle the ears of
the laboriiig classes. composing of course
ti large majority; and if slirewd managers
take the helm, the state will soon be again
revolutionized; and the hopes of many
aspiring i-oliticians,like bubbles in the air,
will explode, ere they have yet seized up-
on the reward of their intrigue and corrup-
tion, which seemed almost within their
grasp.
The New York Daily Sentinel, condtic-
ted with great ability and tact, is foremost
in this cause; and the Working Meti’.~i
Advocate at Albany, the Examiner at Ro-
chester, and other scntinels posted in diff-
erent parts ofthe state, will prove power-
fit! and "c-flicient auxiliaries. As a spe-
cinien of their spirited language, and the
tone ofsentinient which they plainly incul-
cate, we may quote a paragraph from the
second number of the Rochester Exami-
ner :— Travclfer.
“ With all existing parties we have no-
thing to do, but to fight them to the extent
of our abilities. VVe are neither Mason
nor Anti-Mason, Jackson nor Aiiti-Jack-
son, and from the leaders oftht-so we ex-
pect nothing but squibs and denunciations,
until they shall grow lean, upon their mad
wailiiigs over their ruined projects and
lost power ofabuse. We hurl defiance
at them all."
NATIONAL APPROPRIATIONS ——-In the
speech of Mr. ltlic/zardson, of Massachu-
setts, delivered in the House on the 30'h
tilt. we find the following statistical facts,
which may be useful for reference.
By a report made to the Senate during
the present session of Congress by the
Secretary of the Treasury, it appears that
for the ptirposes of Education, and the
