Tile I?omg Pout. BY PERCY BT36HE SHELLEY. [This poem is one of several discovered in manuscript bj Mr. W. M. Rosettl, and ls now pub? lished for the flret time In his Life of the poet:] Like the ghost of a dear friend dead Is time long past. * A tone which is now forever fled, A hope which is now forever past, A love so sweet it could not last. Was time long past. There were sweet dreams m the night Of time long past: And, was lt sadness or delight, Each day a shadow onward cast, Which made us wish it yet might last The tune long past? There ls a regret, almost remorse, For time long past; TiB Uke a chilf.'s beloved corse A father watr.nes, till at last Beauty is Uko remembrance cast From time long past. THE WATS OF THE WICKED. Some of thc Rascalities of Xcw York Merchants Repealed. A New York correspondent, who was him? self for thirty years engaged in mercantile operations in that city, writes: The business men of New York are very dishonest. This I know from close experience. They have certain "tricks of trade," as they are called, which are nothing less than abso? lute stealing. Boxes of Castile soap and simi? lar goods are sold to country customers, who 41ttle think that they pay for box and all at full ?rlce. Tu? e!:a!uinfif on tare is outrageous, ea in chests is estimated at twenty pounds tare, which is always allowed by thc irij.ortor, but a country dealer seldom get&cWOrc than eighteen pounds. On half "chests, twelve ?pounds is allowed, while at the same time the dealer marks the chests up a pound or two. This marking up ol weight corresponds to the marking down of tares. Casks of sugar. Which few country merchants can weigh, are often m.?.-^ .....-V ^??-"1 ovuie tlmes fifty pounds. They toll a good.Btory of old H_H-, a well known grocer on thc north 6idc, who was notorious for his boldness in this line. The old man became at one time somewhat pious, and when ir?, such a .feamo was asked by a clerk who had sold a cask of sugar if he "should go it 20 pounds." No, John ny." was the reply, "don't go over 10, for Pm under concern of mind." Molasses, spirits, tur? pentine and other liquids are-gauged up, which fe v?ry easily done. An original gauge mark ot say 31 gallons, can be easby altered into 34, by using a gauger's "scuba" in a neat manner. If that is not enough, a turn of the scube can change the 31 into 35. As a general nile, with many dealers, ft om one to three gallons are made in ea JL cask. Provision dealers steal In a different manner. Barrels of mackerel are opened in the bottom head, and from twenty to thirty pounds are removed, and the space ulled up with salt. When the retailer opens the barrel he alwavs takes the top head, and here all looks right, but when he gets to the bottom he finds a half bushel more of salt than he expected. Pork and beef are also thus stolen, and hence our government sup? plies are often short, and men suffer severely kt consequence. I have referred to but a few of the different branches of robbery perpetrated among what are called honorable men, fora complete state? ment would fill a volume. One further in? stance may be cited, and this ls the fraud in essential oils. It ls next to Impossible for any country druggist to buy a pure article ot oil lemon, oil bergamot, oil Organum, or any simi? lar oils. The reason i?i this ls that spirits of turpentine mixes so naturally with these arti? cles that detection is almost impossible. In these oils our wholesale druggists make enor? mous profits. Carrying out this Idea, a bold druggist contrived not only to cheat country customers, but also to lleece the trade at large. To do this he employed a machinist to imitate the metallic seals which the manufac? turers put upon the cans. These cans he would unsolder, and then steal about one tenth of the oil, and fill lt up with spirits of turpentine, and then apply the counterfeit seal. These cans would then go into the hands of a drug broker, and would be sold to the trade as pure from thc distiller's hands. This operator I know well. lie is nothing but a thief, and yet in society he Is a "gentle? man." He hus a fine house and lives in style, but retribution may yet reach him, and thcr-gn slow, it may oe sure. COMMERCIAL SEWS. The Charleston Cotton, Klee and Naval s tore s Market.

AND SULPHURIC A. C I D Manufactured at Cliarlcston, S. C., under the dlreotion of Dr. N. A. PRATI, Chemist, for the Sulplfa. ric Acid and Superphosphate Company. SOLUBLE PHOSPHORIC ACID, in the form of SOLUBLE* PHOSPHATE OP LIMB, or DISSOLVED BONE PHOSPHATE, is the basis Of all good Fertilizers, and these arc Valuable in the ratio of Soluble Phosphoric Aold which tt in them. The Immense deposits of Phoephatic Guanos which were discovered in 180T In South Carolina, by Dr. PRATT, consists mainly of Insoluble Phosphate of Lime, which ls made available as a Fertilizer by being ground to powder, and reduced by Sulphur^ Acid to such a condition as to make its Insola ble phosphate soluble in water, and thus made capable of.betng taken up by growing plants. The insoluble Phosphate found In any commercial Fertilizer la of no more value to the plant than the original Phosphate rock. The greuter thc proportion of this Soluble Phosphate which any Fertilizer contains, thc less the quantity required per acre, and consequently the cheapest Fertilizer is that containing the highest percentage of Soluble Phosphate. Impressed with these truths, thc Sulphuric Acid and Superphosphate Company have erect 3d at Charleston thc Crst extensive Acid Chambers south of Baltimore, and are able to oner to planters the highest, percentage of Soluble Phosphate of Lime known In any market. Their Fertilizers arc offered under two forms : * l.

We also oiler DISSOLVED BONE, of high grade, Tor planters or manufacturers who may desire to mix into any ocher compost, and wc suggest that this ls thc best and cheapest method for manufac? turers to transport thc Sulphuric Acid contained in the mixture.
