MISOBIiLANT ThTfoHowtas Tbwant?f?l poe^ ??jw?r tenby the Aberdeen (M?as.) JHtdu K*ami Wert ly ? talented young gentleman of Momphis, who will not consent to appenB his name to his production: The Prisoner off Monro?-. The night wind's moan Has a saddened tone, As it swoops o'er tho prison dreary. With its fearful breath Breathes a nong of death To the captive within those stern grey walls,,. . . - . , As on his ears its sigbing.falls, Now soft and mournfully, Now l?nd and scornfully, As if mocking his sighs so weary. Ou heaven's broad main, Sad, funeral train, The stars look down on the nightly shore, And the moon's soft light Illuming the night, . _ | The dungeon walls and Mic murmuring deep That sadly sigh o'er the prisoner s sleep. Low and thrilling, And anon swelling, Into a ceaseless, eternal roar. * 'Mid the shadows dim Stands the sentry grim, Ever sullen, and wary, and watchful of bim Who within bis low cell is sleeping: Aa he tramps his round. The echoed sound j Of his measured step breaks the si lonce profound, As his lonely vigils be's keeping, Silently watching Eagerly catching Every sigh from thc breath of tho captivo chief, j Weary of dungeon and woru of grief. Not weakly complaining, j In his dungeon remaining, The grand old nero proudly disclaiming 1 His glorious lineage and hie to be staining With aught of self abasement, With proud serenity, - Ho asks not the lenity Of the pigmies who seek with their own brief story Of bis name from its brilliant page of j glory To work the utter erasemCnt. Grey-haired and bending, Yet greatness lending A conscious grace with his meekness blend? ing, All verily speak of a uoblo ending Of a life so grand amTglorious, Whether he falls by tho traitor's doom. Or sinks to rest in the prison-gloom, Or a homeless and friendless exile roam - No matter bow dying, Over dastard dccrybig SI di fame, replying, Pronounce bim victorious. But now, in bis dreaming, There Hits tho seeming, (With celestial brilliance of glory glMoniug, ) Shadowy visions Of lofty ambRions Of that dream bf hope that were primo to be spoken That thrilling dreaming so rudely broken! Recall it fearfully; Speak of it tearfully, j W hilo you aro speakiug Strongj manly hearts. Are quivering, breaking! Aud bright visions come In the night's thick gloom, j While the winds round the walls uro sighing, Freed from his ebaius, On Mauassas' plains, As in days of yore wheu raged tho battle, Tho cannons* thunder and muskets' rattle, And the riderless steed in terror dying. And the cheers of the charging andugroans of tho dying, And all the sounds of tho bitter fight Come to his dreaming in shadows of night. "Fallen! fallen! From lor-; high estate,"-(?) Never of him can tho word be spoken. Though faded his form-his vigor broken; Though his step be faltering, painful am) slow; Though his eye has lost its fiery glow. And his once ringing tones are sad and low, Not fallon! risen higher! From out of thc fire, Fur cr i and clearer, and brighter than ever, His name and glory none shall e'er scvei. Oh! blind Belisarius! Shall wee'r weary us. Praying tho God of the pure and tho bravo That Ho may bc with thee, cheering, sus? taining Thy noble heart tn thc days remaining, That the glory may brighten as life is waning, And sinking to rest in a martyr's grave, Thy noble example on us bestowing, That with deathless love of our Southland glowing, We may know to follow thc way thon'rt showing, Closing our eyes in eternal night. Trusting in Cod to defend the right!. Wir/L RTSK THE CONSEQUENCES. Franz, of the Brandon (Miss.) Repub? lican, says: Douglas Jerrold calls women's arms the serpents that wind around men's necks, killing the best resolutions. That class of serpents can just wind around around our neck ns much as they please, and if any of the young ladies believe what "Jerrold says, they, can como nud try the experiment on us. We'll risk tho consequence. A few days since, the teacher in the primary department of the graded school in Vcrgenncs, Vermont, inter? rogated tho pupils as to the reason of the saltness of the ocean. One little lad was confident he could tell, and the question was put: "Well, what is it that causes the saltness of the ocean?" "Tho ccKlfish!" replied tho little original. In Dublin, a preacher once at? tempted to preach from the text, "Remember Lot's wjfo," und made a failure. Afterwards, remarking to Dr. Bond that he did not know the cause of his failure, the venerable Doctor replied that "he had better thereafter let other poople's wives alone." Prof. Blot says: "Never drink tea at breakfast; it is suicide. Drink coffee or chocolate. If you drink tea at all, drink it after lunch or din? ner. Cofleo should not bo boiled, and should bo perfectly clear of it? self; without any foreign substance used for clearing it." False eye-lashes are tho labest tri? buto of art to beauty in Paris. Th?! Empress has countenanced them. A recent number of tho London Alhena'nm contains an advertisement for a sub-editor for a country journal. - Ho must be a verbatim short-hand re? porter, n good descriptive writer, and willing to make himself "j?otrerally nsefttl." For all these gifts the ad? vertiser offers to pay S.S. 50 per week. A Paris letter-writer thus describes the latest style of kid gloves-tho Jo? sephine: It must be good, because its make is so peculiar that; it eould net be put ou if inferior in quality. There is no scam down that part of the hand beginning with tho tip of the little finger and ending below the wrist; the-palm and back arc cut in one, and the thumb has free motion, hot beingtightenod in with a circular seam, which so often splits. Then thero is no diamond-shaped patch between tho lingers, and altogether tho Josephine fits as au upper skin( ought to fit. They rather ont-do us in England in regard to matrimonial advertise? ments, judging from the following: Ada Emily Jenny, just nineteen, fair blue eyes, ond handsome, woi?d like to be married as early as possi? ble* Rosebud, who is seventeen and pretty, having rich golden hair, wishes to marry a tali young' titan, about twenty-four years of age. Violet wants to be married to a tall j man. She is tall and very good look- j ing Lnlla Rookh would dearly like to be married. She moves in first-class society, and has .C500 a year. She is eighteen, tall, and strikingly hand? some. Some o? thc applicants put tho matter rather upon the ground of duty and destiny: Mary G., who has good looks, but does not wish to speak of them, wants to be married. She has read the Bi? ble, and knows that marriage is the destiny and honor of woman. She is twenty-three. .Catherine E. B., who has dark brown hair, and soft brown eyes; with pretty features and nice figure, wishes to fulfill her woman's mission and many. She will have money. SCIENTIFIC OBSEKVATIONS OF THE HEAT.-Prof. Loomis, of Yale Col? lege, makes on tho 17th instant tho following interesting observations upon the hot weather: ^ "This afternoon, at 3 o'clock, my thermometer, suspended in the shade upon the North side ol' the Now Ha? ven Hotel, indicated 102*4 degrees, being the highest temperature known to have been observed in New Haven since 1778, a period of 89 years. Tho highest temperature recorded before the present season was 102 degrees, viz: Juue 21, 1864. Previous to this, the thermometer had been twice ob- : served at 101 degrees, viz: in 179S, and there have been three other cases in which the thermometer has risen to 100 degrees, viz: in 1781,1800 and 1815; making in all seven known in? stances in which a thermometer, fair? ly exposed in the shade, has risen to 100 degrees and upwards. "Thc period just passed has been quito as remarkable for the long con? tinuance of extreme heat .^.s for its intensity. Within a period of eleven days, the thermometer lias risen jive times to 05 degrees and upwards. Since 177S, there has been only ono other instance in which the ther ! mometer has risen to this height five \ times during the same summer, viz: j in 1815, and these oases were spread I over an interval of thirty-six days, j During the same period, there have been but two other cases in which tho thermometer has risen to 95 degrees as ninny as four times during the same summer, viz.; in 1780 and 1708. "The hottest month at New Haven since 1778 was tho month of Julv, 1825. The heat of the past thirty days has been somewhat higher than j that of July, 1S2?, so that wo seem ! authorized in asserting that tho heat j of the recent peridtl has been more j intense, and the extreme heat has I been longer continued, than lias oe j curred before in eighty-nine years, [and probably fora much longer pe j ried." A FACT FOR HISTORY.- In his ad i dress, at Norfolk, last Saturday ' night, upon rebuilding the churches of the South, ex-Governor Wise stated that "more than 1,200 church? es had been utterly destroyed in the Southern States during thc war," in addition to thc vast numbers that had boen "polluted, defiled, defaced and impaired." Think of it! There was, in nine eases out of ten, moro likely in nineteen cases out of twenty, not a particle of necessity, military I or otherwise, for this. It was sheer I wantonness and diabolism. Yet the men who did it have been held up to the world by those who hounded them on from the pulpits and]tresses of the North, as Christian warriors, as a Bible-reading and God-fearing race-as the leaders and exemplars of the civilization of the century-as the champions of a policy ' founded on great moral ideas," with endless balderdash of that kind. 1,200 churches destroyed! Let the fact go into history as an enduring evidence of the spirit that actuated tho hordes against which, for firesides and altars, wo contended.- Wilmington Journal. --. ? A Troy negro recently fell from a third story window to tho pavement, and saved his lifo bv striking head first. A REPLY OF MK. GBEELEY.-One J. Wilson, of Waukegan, Illinois, re? cently wroto to Horneo Greeley, Esq,, wanting to kiiow if it was true that he offered to. go bail for Jefferson Da? vis, to which Mr. Greeley repli?e! ns follows: "Yes, 'sir; I would bail Davis, or you, or any ollie? culprit that the Government should shamefully keep in jail for more than a year, resisting and denying hi% just and legal de? mand thafr ho bo arraigned and tried or let go. Yours, truly, "HORACE GREELEY." BED BUGS.-A correspondent of the Fayetteville Journal communi? cates to the public that as much sub? limate of mercury as two ounces of first proof alcohol will dissolve, will destroy those pests to human nature, bcd bugs, large and little, if applied to those places wliere they want to toke shelter. For the credit r i well as the comfort o? our own humanity, let it bo applied at once. Tho pre? paration costs but a trifle, and the receipt is "free gratis for nothing." Charleston Advertisements.

It is proper here to state, distinctly and emphatically, that such impressions are utterly without foundation. The policy of the Company is now, as it always has been, never to allow a lower rate at a competing point; and its practice is, as it has always neon, to allow the road nearest the competing point to make the rate necessary to give its patrons all Die advantages promised elsewhere. In conformity with this prac? tice, the Charlotte and South ('andina Railroad has been, and now is, fully autho? rized to establish any rate to the sea at Charleston it sees tit, aud the South Caro lipa Railroad will aocept its proposition of such rates.

Females, at the period of change, will find it the best restorative to health and strength, from all those weaknesses and depressions of mind and body which fol? low at thus time of life. Persons traveling South or living in warm climates, and all iinaccliinated, will find the Queen's Delight a great protection from all those diseases which originate in a change of climate, diet and Ufe. A brief history of this remarkable medi? cine will not be but of place here. Itspro perties as a remedy were first introduced to the notice of the profession by Dr. Taos. Young Simons, of South Carobna, as early as 1828, as a valuable alterative remedy in syphilitic affections, and others requiring the uso of mercury. Dr. Simons' state? ments have been endorsed and extended by Dr. A. Lopez, of Mobile, and Dr. H. R. Frost, of Charleston. From the reports in its favor, there seems no reason to doubt the efficacy of tlii: medicine in Secondary Syphilis, Scrofula, Cntancous Diseases, Chronic Hepatic Affections and other com? plaints benefited by alterative medicines.
