His years and strength begiii to fail My father's growving old." They tell me, in my youthful years, le led me by his side, And strove to cahn my childish fears, Aly erring steps to guide. But yers with all their scenes of change, Above us both have rolled, I now nitist guide his faltering steps. ily father's growing old." When sunset's rosy glow departs, With voices full of mirth, Our household band with joyons hearts Will gather round the hearth. They look upon his trembling form, His pallid face behold, And tuirn away with chastened tones "My father's growing old." And when each tuneful voice we raise, ln songs cf7 lung ago." His voice which minglea in our lays Is tremlisis and low. It used to seem a clarion's tone, So musical and bhld, But weaker. fainter. has it grown My father's growing old." -The same fond smile ie used to weair Still wretilhes his pales lips now, But timte with lines of age and care Has trne-I his placid irow. But yet amid the lapce ofyears His heart has not grown cold, Thongh voice and footstelis pla'nly tell "My rather's growing old." Mly father! thon did'st strive to shara Aly joys, and caln my fcars. And now thy child, with grateful care, In thy declining years. Shall smoods thy path, and brighter scenes By Faith, and lope unfold; And love thee with a holier love Since thou art groiving old.

A young candidate lately presented himsel'be'ore a certain medical society for examination and, if accepted was to receive a degree frim the society. The censors went on with the examination, so far as to find him groqqly ignorant. Ilis embarrassment and morifieation had thrown him into a violent sweat. In thick pickle. one of the censors asked him what course he would take with a patient afflicted with rhtuematism; he replied, I would streat him-, Well," said the cen sor "and what method would you take, to sweat him 1" The poor fellow, Wih be gan to be a little anary upon the occas ion replied.

The proceedings of these bodios were cerralinly not without interest, ahd when published in full will emboJy much useful information. For this we s9all be as ready as others to thank then. But these proceedings will infalihly dimonstrate that the avowed pur pose of the. Conventions-the giving prac tical elfect to some one of several projects for buildini a Railroad across the conti nent ; was ionceived in t hespitit of dreams and not ofitober wakefulness. At the S. Louis Convenrion, estimates were made!by a distinguished engineer, of the COSL offtnRaihway fromi the Mississippi River across the Rocky Mountains at the South Parl- thenco through the central part of thi California basin. across the Sierra Ne k da, to the waters of the San Fiancisco ay. Considering the natore of the counji-y, its extent of near two thou sands nilei and the very little of proper exploration to which a large part of i: has been subjected, it was a rather hold thing to attempr'un estimate of cost. But he set it down at thiimoderate sui oreighty-nine millions ofi dollars. and the Convention were so farifrom being scared by such a suin. that 1tny voted with great unanimi. ty that theisaid Road, from some point near the Wesrern boundary of Missouri, ought to bemadie to branch in three diree tions-to Aiemphis, Sr. Louis, and Chi cago; and they were of opinion that when the Federal, Government shall have fab. ricated thisf monster, with a main trunk of fifteen hundred miles, and three tails of five huadred miles each, it will bimaply have done:is. duty by proving for wants of the cournry, vtnal in magnitude to ithe works by hich they are to be satisfied. That well ibforned men should advance such prop( itions waus to us a matier of great wont. and might have continued so but for ilbsequent developments. The St; Lonis Convention was speediiv followed 4y"One equally well uttended anil respectab Ie, at Memphis. the outward manifestaW- of which were not unkile to have admitted some scruples na to the propriety of setting the General Govern tment anut such w ork. Still, for ill their published proceedings told us, were war ranted in concluding that they were only a little less visionary than their brelhern of St. Louis,-not that they were truly in their sober senses. Fortunately for them, the people of Mobile Ield a tublic meeting on the re tura of the delegation, at which Mr. Sie wart, one of the number, gave an account of the trte intent and effect of the doitigs at- Memphis. According to him, the re. suit of the only constitunions of the mem hers of the Conventiot, wias a general con. viction that the R:.ilvay acraiss the con. iinet was unless at some distant point in the future, altogether a hope!ess project. That all the best informed men, (Lt. Maury, the President of the Convention, aiming them,) admitted that the China trade could never he carried over that route, nid that conseqnently the resources of the Road would be limited to the trade arid iravel of tihe people of the United States. Mr. Stewart thought however. that tho Cenvention wotild do inuch nod; that it would give an imupulse to Snuthrn enterprisP; wouldl contribute to the more speedy completion of the comntntticatitons between the Atlanitic andl the Mississippi, through Georgia anti Tennessee, and wonld britng into favorabile light rte proposed untion of tire oceans by the Isrihmnrs of T.-huatntepec, in which Mobile was great ly initerested.

DREADFUL SHIPWRECK AND Loss OF LwV !-The followitig melancholy account (says the Mobile Adverliser) of the loss of the bark Elij-th Swift, was furnished us last evening: The bark Elijah Swift, D. A.Nye mis ter. from New York bound to New Or leans. with 26 souls on board. Our enbin passengers, eilit in nmiber, were all wo men and children; two infants, one six weeks and the other fite months old. On Monday. 20th ult., at 2 P. M., anchored off the Great Isaacs. about two miles from thle shore, in nine fathons water; the wind moderate from the S. S. W.. with pleasant weather. At 1 A. M., the wind hauled suddenly to the N. W., and blew violently, with constant heavy rain. The ship com menced dragging her anchors, with the en tire length of both chains out; we cut away the foremast, and while in ise act ofentring away the inainmast, she struck the rocks, and in one hour went to pieces During the time we were on the wreck, the sea was coutinually breaking over us; After several i'neffectual attempts to get a rope on shore, we at length succeeded, and landed all on board, though many of tbem much bruised and, lacerated by the drift wood and surf dashing them against the sharp enral rocks. On landing, we deemed it safest to gain the hights or south easternI part of the Islal, as the sea had already commenced breaking over the North-western poit where we stood. We had scarcely pro ceeded fifty yards on our way, leading the ladies -at a slow pace, they being in their niahi-dresses and bare-footed, when a tre mendous sea broke over the rocks atid washed away twenty of our number, eight of % bich we saved-the other i welvo were drowned. Among those lost were Parker Flower, 2d officer, antd James Lane, searnat, both of New-York, who lost their lives in endeavoring to save those of Mrs. N. A. Bailey and Missj Heurietta P. Itay two cabin passengers. The rest of our number succedeedin reaching a place of safety. Our feet lace rated and bleeding at evel-y step. mjny gave out and were obliged to be carried. ''he next mrorning. itn searching for fresh water, we found an infant, six weeks old, ed ashure. which we could not eat on ace etiIs of creatine thirst.- On the third day we were rescued by the ship Bangor, Capt. W. J. Philbrook. who kindly answered our signals of distress. took us on board and trented us with all the kindnuess that disinterested I innity could suggest.
