P O E T R V . From the N. Y. American. LIFE. I?w a little fairy boat, Glide o'er a glassy lake : Bright bud* wove 'round the gilded prow, Flower* scattered in its wake. It held one fair and sylph-like child ? ltnin us Dosom slight? One hand upon the little helm, Whilst all seemed calm and bright. I saw that tiny bark again, Upon a glancing stream, Flit midst its green and fairy isles, Like a swift passing dream. A fuir-haired youth now guided it, Through all those changing scenes ; While suu and storm around him played, In showers and fitful gleams. Again it burst upon my view, On rapids dark and dread; Its gilded prow all worn and broke, Its tlowers faded and dead. It held, while in its wild career, Manhood's all-braving form; His eye fixed on the bow of Hope. That shone above the storm. I siw the way-worn bark once more, Tossed on a boundless 9ea : Before it yawned a deep, dark gulf? Beyond, Eternity. An aged man reclined within, With wasted form and eye ; But still his eazc for ever fixed Upon the brightening sky. For there?there beamed a fadeless light, That pilgrim's long-sought haven, Where he might moor his shattered bark : And that bright home was?Heaven. Desolation.?Midnight upon the tcnij? 8t wave is desolate, yet there is grandeur and sublimity in the scene; the starving outcast upon tho blasted heath is a pitiable object for humanity to contern- | plate; desolation is in the howl of the hurricane; and the scream of the night bird in the wilderness is dreadful;?but a tap on the shoulder from a j dun, with not a cent in your pocket, is a thunder jkm! frjm the regions of mortal terror, menacing a man with the dismal horrors of a jail. Singular Surgical Experiment.?Dr. Antonio Carraro informs us, in the Annali L'ltiversali di Medicinia, that he has successfully used ncu. juncture in eases of apparent death. He performed the following experiment before sevcralindividuals. An eight days old cat was kept under water till all motion ceased, when the anunal was taken out; the tongue protruded from the mouth and was covered with froth. The extremities were stiff, there was no pulsation of the heart, and everv si?n of life was absent. On bcinsr cast in the i water for the second time it sank to the bottom.? It was then taken out, exposed to the sun, and ! then dried with warm towels. Abdominal frictions were ineffectually practised, and it was not until ; the lapse of three-quarters of an hour after the dis- ! appearance of the 9igns of life, that acupuncture j was had recourse to. A needle was pushed on- ' wards through the heart, until its point rested on the vertebral column. Five minutes had hardly elapsed, when the needle was observed to move, which indicated a movement of the heart. This motion increased, which was soon followed by , movements of the upper extremities, then rcspira- | tion, cryrtig, and lastly movements of the whole j body. The animal continued to live, and suckled its mother. This same experiment was frequently repeated with similar effects, from which Dr. Oarraro coneludes, that puncture of the heart is not only a ; useful but safe operation. He concludes his re- ' marks by trusting that his method may be tried in cases of axphixia.?Provincial Med. Jour. Discovery op Large Bones.?A discovery of bones of tho defunct Mastodon, has recently been i made at a lick about two miles from Warsaw. .Mo., : which exceed in number and size any yet disco, vercd. The bones were found two or three feet below thesurface, imbed ?ed in a black gravel.? The number of different beads found amounts to seventy or eighty, and the amount of detached teeth shows that a number of these monsters has found a common grave in this basin. The skeletons of various species of animals are found deposited in tliis basin, as the buffalo, elk, deer, dec. A It Iter from London states that a co'lcge has been opened in Glasgow, under splendid auspices, for the education of ladies in the higher branches j of academical knowledge. Several most distinguished professors have been appointed, all of whom are ministers of the Gospel. The University is appropriately termed 44 Queen's College." The Weather in New Orleans.?lee, more than half an inch thick, was formed on the night j of the 18th ult.,?being several weeks earlier than usual. This, observes the Courier, we apprehend , will make the sugar planters of Louisiana, lose ! several hundred thousand dollars. More than half o? their cane is yet uncut?and, probably froze last night, at least on the plantations above New Orleans: thrn comes a spell of warm weather, a thaw, and the souring of the cane juice. The only set off against this misfortune we think of, is an augmentation of price?a circumstance, however, j which mar not occur, as the sugar crops in the j West Indies and elsewhere, arc of unusually fine ' promise, this year. executive department.
