AN INCIDENT IN A RAILROAD CAR.
BY s. K bOWELL,
He spoke of Burns: men rude and rough
Pressed round to hear the praise of one.
Whose breast was made of manly simple stuff,
As homespun as tbeir own.
And, when he read, they forward leaned,
And heard, will? eager hearts and ears,
Hjs bird-like songs whom glory n?ver weaned
From humble smiles and tears.
Slowly there grew a tender awe.
Sun-like o'er faces brown and bard,
As it in him who read they felt and saw
Some presence ot die bard.
It was a sight for sin and wrong,
And slavish tyranny to see,
A sight to make our faith more pure and strong
la high Humanity.
I thought,these asen will carry hence
Promptings their former life above,
And something of a finer reverence
For beauty, truth, and love.
God scatters love on every side,
Freely among his children ail,
And always hearts are lying open wide
Wherein some grains may fall.
There is do wind but sows some seeds
Ol a more true and open life,
AVhicb hurst unlookcd tor into high-iouled deeds
With way-side beauty rile.
We find within these souls of ours
Some wild germs of a higher birth,
Which in the poet's tropic heart bear flowers
Whose fragrance fills theeaitb.
Within the hearts of all men lie
These promises of wider bliss,
Which blossom into hopes that cannot die.
In sunny boon like this.
All that bath been majextical
In life or death since time began.
Is native in the simple bean of all.
The angel heart of Man.
And thus among the untaught poor,
Great deeds and feelings find a home,
Which casts in shadow all the golden lore
Of Classic Greece or Rome.
Obi mighty brother-soul of Man,
Where'er thou art, in low or high,
Thy skyey arches witb exulting span
O'er-roof infinity!
All thoughts that mould the age begin
Deep down within the primitive soul,
And, from the Many, slowly upward win
To One who grasps die whole.
In his broad breast, the feeling deep
Wbkh struggled on the Many's tongue.
Swell- to a tide of Thought whose surges leap
O'er die weak throne of Wrong.
Never did poesy appear
So lull of Heav'n to me as when
I saw h*w it would pierce through pride and fear,
To lives ol coarsest men.
It may be glorious to write
Thoughts mat shall glad the two or three
High souls like those far stars that come in sight
Once in a century.
Rut better far it is to speak
Onssimple word, which now and then.
Shall waken tbeir free nature to the weak,
And friendless sons of men;
To write some earnest verse or line
Which, seeking not the praise of Art,
Shall make a clearer faith and manhood shine
In tbe unlearned heart
Boston, April, 1342_
The Everlastikg Water-Wheel and the
Man at the Pump.?There is, or was, a few years
ago, a water wheel, not far from the road-side,
somewhere in the valley of the Housatonic, the
history of which was peculiar, it belonged, many
years ago to a grist-mill, being what is called " an
overshot mill." The mill, by some sad accident,
was burnt?ail but the hydraulic portion of it,
which was preserved from the fire of the antagonis?
tic element. The dum, and the machinery of tho
water-wheel, being uninjured, when the neighbors
came to look upon the ruins in the morning, the
latter was rolling on as regularly as though nothing
had happened. And so it was left by the people,
to roll on in its glory, or tire itself out. Time
rolled on, and so did that water-wheel. Night fol?
lowed day, and day succeeded night, and the wa?
ter-wheel continued its unwearied round, in soli?
tude or sunlight?in gayety or gloom. Year alter
year rolled away, and onward rolled the water
wheel?rumbling in rude harmony with the hoot
ings of the owls by night, or mingling the music
of its falling waters with melodies of the sweeter
songs of nuture by day. There, and thus like a
troubled spirit, rolled the water-wheel of the
woods?onward, onward, onward?and for all that
we know, it is revolving there still.
To the singular case of this water-wheel we
have never heard of an exact purallel. But the
Albany Regency have created one that bears a
striking analogy, to say the least. It is that of
" The-Man-at-the-I'ump,"' at tho mouth of the
Schoharie-kill. The case is this: The destructive
majority of the Legislature of this State, at the
last reg'tlar session, as is well known, at one fell
blow arrested our works of internal improvement
under the fulse pretext thut the Whigs had been
rushing into wild schemes of extravagance that
would bankrupt tho state; whereas, in good sooth,
they had been merely laboring to fulfil the faith of
the state as pledged by the destructives themselves I
before they went out of office on the 1st of .lanua-1
ry, 18.3!). But no matter: the firman w:ent forth.
Down went every hammer, and idle stood every j
spade and wheelbarrow.
In vain did contractors ask leave to fulfill their
jobs: in vain did the voice of wisdom and true
economy plead that the leaving of unfinished work's
to fall into premature dilapidation, and the loss of
the interest for an indefinite period of time, upon
the millions already expended, would in the end
prove the most ruinous policy that ever State
adopted. The party had decreed it?and the
works must stop. They did stop; though some
of the noblest works of masonry on the line of the
canal will sustain greater injury in their unfinished
state, in a single year, than the amount required
for their completion. Of these is the stupendous
aqueduct at the confluence of the Schoharie-kill.
The cost of this great work is probably sumo
two or three hundred thousand dollars: and we
have boon told that when its progress was arrest?
ed, thirty-rive thousand would have insured its
completion and brought it into use. But it was
not allowed. Still, it was in such a state us to
require sum-thing to bo done to ->ave it from posi?
tive ruin. And now for "the man-at-the-pump."
Among other tilings it is necessary that the bot?
tom of the chamber should be kept flowing, or
covered with water?for which purpose it became
necessary to erect a hand-pump to raise the water.
The pump would not go of itself, and of course a
man must be procurer! to wo;k it. And there
stands the pump?and there stands the man.
The water in the immense basin evaporates, or
oozes out, about as fast as he can raise it. The
pump must therefore be plied continually?pump,
pump, pump. Like the revolving water wheel of
the Housatonic, it must he ceaselessly going. No
matter if tbe man gets out of breath?no ..latter
for the gloom of night, or theheut of day?it must
be pump, pump, pump. Unless occasionally re?
lieved by another hand, this poor man must pump
away with the industry of the idle vagrants in Hol?
land, who are placed in a deep tab of water, in
which by the constant influx they must be drown?
ed, unless they pump it out as fast as it flows is.
Oh the wisdom of modern politicians ! And where
is the man having bowels who will not sympathize
with that lonely servant of the Albany Regency?
" the-man-at-the-pump ?" Pump, pump. pump.
[N. Y. Commercial.
A Kind Master.?It is always pleasant to see
farmers attentive and humane to their working
cattle and horses. Nothing is lost, but much
gained, by kindness to these useful animals. We
were pleased on the morning of the Cth inst., in
noticing two beautiful teams which passed our of
ce, attached to carts laden with brick, owned and
driven by Col. Wr?. Wad;worth, who resides on
the Windsor roud about three miles from this city.
Each ox had a piece of light canvass neatly at?
tached to his body, so as to effectually protect him
from tbe flies. This added much to the comfort
of the cattle, the numerous flies and insects at thi*
season of the year being exceedingly annoying, and
often worrying horses and cattle not protected,
more than the burthen of the harne?? and yoke.?
It requires some little expense and trouble, it is
true, to protect these animals so carefully as Mr.
W. protects h:?, but their comfort and the wil?
lingness v*ith which they perform their duties,
when protectrd from annoying insects., amply re
pay the trouble and expense. [Hartford Time?
WoRi'sworth.?The following interesting des?
cription of an interview with Wordsworth ?
whose name ages to come will honor with that of
Milton?is from the foreign correspondence of
the Nowark Daily Advertiser. The Boston Tran?
script strangely heads it ' Christopher North.'
We arrived at Ambleside, which lies at the foot
of the lake, at evening, and sat down to enjoy the
delicious trout taken from the lake, and, while wo
were waiting for our supper, I happened to look
out of the window, and espied a venerable old gen?
tleman, in a blue cloak and riding cap, with a
bunch of heathur stuck jauntily in the top, driving
by in a litde green phrcton towards Rydal. Perhaps,
thought I, that is the patriarch hiraself, and sure
enough it was he ! 1 could scarcely realize that the
singular old personage before me was the greatest
Poet of the age. I determined to call upon him
the next morning, and at 10 o'clock was at his
cottage, one of the sweetest little things that I
ever beheld, covered all over with ivy and creep?
ing flowers. The door was opened, and 1 was
shown to his sanctum, where the old gentleman
was seated with his kind, mild looking old com?
panion, who sat knitting by his side. He was very
plainly dressed, and bears a strong resemblance to
the portrait in the Philadelphia (Prof. Reed's)
edition of his works, except that his face is broader
and more furrowed, and his hair is now long and
white. His reception was very cordial, and he
fell at once upon a favorite subject of the English
writers?an international copywright.
^Nothing can be more ill-bred, and at the same
time ungrateful, than to blazon to the public any?
thing that falls from a great man's lips in the un?
guarded moment of private conversation; but on
a question so interesting to all, at this time. I
shall be pardoned in saying that the poet mani?
fested a strong and just indignation. It was not
merely the loss of the wages earned by the sweat
of the brain, but the liability to mutilation which
the works of foreign writers undergo, that formed
the principal argument for this most righteous
principle, which he advocated with an eloquence
with which I was surprised and delighted. The
old man spoke of our eoantry and its authors with
the greatest respect, and expressed a strong desire
to visit it. but the duties of an office which he has
held for thirty years, (Distributor uf Stamps) to?
gether with the narrow state of his finances, pre?
vented the consummation of his wishes ; and now
he is near the grave, and looks for no comforts
beyond his mountain home. And a glorious home
it is! When I looked aroundhis quiet little room,
I could scarcely realize that those walls had heard
the elevated converse of some of the loftiest minds
our age has produced: that there Sir Walter had
doled forth his snatches of Border Minstrelsy, and
Southev had recounted the beautiful fables of Per?
sian Mythology, and Coleridge had poured out
long harangues about Goethe and Kant, the Sam- i
othractan mysteries, and the libraries of Alexan?
dria. When our pleasant conversation was con?
cluded, the poet got his broad white hat and double
glasses, which he is obliged to use for his weak
eyes, which are nearly closed, and took me out
among his flowers and his hills. He pointed out
Thirlmere and Rydal water, and gave me a plea?
sant account of them all, and then, with many
good wishes and a parting benediction, he sent me
on my way rejoicing to have seen, before he de?
parted, the most gifted of Nature's interpreters.
The AVagcr Paid.
KF' The Paris correspondent of the National
Intelligencer relates the following of Auuado, the
rich Parisian banker:?
Before the defunct millionaire paid his fatal visit
to Spain, he lost a game which is called unc dis?
cretion (the loser to pay what he lists) with a Pa?
risian of fortune and fashion, remarkable for
Brummelism. The winner did not remind him of
payment until he hoard of his arrival in Andalusia,
and confidently expected from the dilettante banker
a dozen cases of the choicest Spanish wines, or a
jewel of a Murillo. Judge of the surprise and
disappointment, when a large living bear, duly en?
caged and muzzled, was brought from the Py?
renees by order of Aguado to the exquisite's hotel
in Paris. The bear being found an uncomfortable
tenant for thr court-yard, was advertised for sale:
the offers were too low : at length the manager of
the owner's country estate arrived, and having
mentioned that the park and orchards were infes?
ted by poachers ami ether trespassers, it was
agreed that bruin should be sent down and occa?
sionally let loose at night in the wood; which ex?
pedient speedily proved effective. But tho formi?
dable guard clambered himself over the walls, and
spread terror and devastation on eveiy side in the
neighboring farms. A hue and cry ensued not
against the monster alone, but his "ferocious"
master; suits for damages came next; the Vis?
count is obliged to pass the hot season in Paris,
ami may have to suffer considerably in his purse
for Aguado's practical joke, which the dandies and
lawyers now pronounce a mauvctise p.'ai sent eric.
A Military Man.?John Dudley, of Decrficld,
N. y., a respectable and proper man. with a pretty
good opinion of himself, was honored with the
commission of captain in the militia. He was an
old bachelor, had an old maid for a house-keeper,
and tilled his own ground like an honest man. He
was acquainted with Governor Wentworth, and
frequently called on him when at Portsmouth that
he might tell his n:>tic neighbors how thick he
was with bis Excellency. To add to his impor?
tance, he once invited the Governor to call on him
at Deei field, on his way to the country, and the
Governor promised to do so. Me expected the
visit some time in a cerrait: week, and kept near
his house, busily employed as usual; one very
warm day bis house-keeper came puffins, into the
tieid to inform him that a grand carriage, which
must be the Governor's, was at a little distance.
Tbe captain ran into the house and had hardly
time to slip on his military red coat and cocked
hat, ere Iiis Kxcclleney drove up. With bis trusty
sword in hand, Captain Dudley ran into the street,
and assuming a true captain-like stlUt, paid a mar?
tial salute to his Excellency, who, on beholding
him burst into a hearty laugh. This rather dis?
composed the man of the sword?but he was put
to immediate flight by the following speech of the
Governor*.
??Captain Dudley. I am glad to see you. but
think your appearance as a military man would be
somewhat improved, if you would add to your uni?
form a pair of breeches .'"
The latter article the good captain, in his haste
to pay his respects to the Governor, had entirely
forgotten. [Merc. Jour.

ROMAN EYE BALSAM, for Weak
and Inriamrd Eyes.? Thi? Balsam i.? a prescriptier. of
one of the most celebrated rxulists, has been a I<>ng lim'* fn
use, and is confidently recommended to the public as the
best and most soccesful salve ever u>ed for inflamrrtttory
diseases of the eye. In cases where the eyelids are * ery
much inflamed, or the ball of the eye thickly covered with
blood, it operates almost like mazic.'and removes all appear?
ance of disease after two or three applications.
In Dimness of Sight cause-! by fixed attention to minute
objects, or by long exposure to a strong light, and in the
weakness or partial loss ofsigfat from sickness or old age. it
is a sure restorer, and should he used by all who find their
eyesight tailing without anv apparent disease.
This Balsa:n has restored sitrht in many instances where
almost TOTAL BLINDNESS, caused by excessive inflam?
mation, bad existed for years. Inflammation and soreness
caused by blows, contusions, wounds on the eye, or by ex
traneoos todies of an irritating nature introduced under the
eyelids, is very soon removed bv th? application of the Bal?
sam. One trial will convince the most incredulous of its
efficacv.
The'foliowing evidense of it?-uperior excellency is from
the Pastor of the Episcopal Church at Harlem :
Harlem. July, 1841.

A FFECTIONS OF THE LIVER.? I
JtjL. EvzrvInvalid suocldread andreflect, .tthey >
desire a restoration to hkalth ?I venture to affirm. '?
says an eminent writer, that tba grand source of bealtk and
disease i* connected with the natural or disordered function
of tie liver, and tnat every chronic or lingering illness
arises from some deiecidiere. ?hmnic Hepatitis the most
frequeut tonn of the disease in this country, is slow in its
progressive ?treargib. The organ of attack will be lor vears
snflering under its underntinin? influence, and yet no real
disease will indicate to the patient tbe alarming state under
which he is laboring; aty transient indispositioa he imputes
to a different cause, never sn-pecung that the liver being
alTected is die latent source of these disturbed sensations ;
thus aiuiied, it is net in Ins power to take the necessary pre
cautioa (o ^aard against this iasidious enemy to bis repose.
The symptoms of this disease are ollen slight and felt for a
camiderable time, such as fulne*s alter meals, accompanied
by oppression, a feeling of vacuity at tbe pit of th? stomach,
the mind becomes irritable, memory detective, incapacity
tor mental exertion prevails, the appetite becomes variable,
tongue furred, mouth clammy, taste vitiated, slight noise!
causes a ?tarr.sleep disturoed with fiightiul dreams, occa?
sionally au obtuse pain in the right side, extending to the top |
of the shoulder, cramp or spasm is often experienced, and
nervous twitching cf the muscles and aching pain of the
limb, nrrvous or sjck headache i* generally caused by it.
It often appears in the form of cough, asthma, kci, a* a dis?
eased state of the liver, either by sympathy or pressure, in?
duces a deranifement of the functions of the lungs and occa
sions these disorders. By changing the morbid state of the
liver, the irritation ol the lungs immediately gives way.?
The liver is indeed connected, primarily or secondarily, as
cause or etfec', with various diseases of the head as weil as
other pans of the system.
From these views, then, there can be no doubt that ike
disorders of the liver are of the first importonce, ami every
effort used to remedy them should he conducted on lationril
principles, ar.d by timely and efficient attention and the use
ol the most proper medicines*, many very serious conse?
quences may beprevent-d, which too often are entaled on
the 4onstitu'tion by procrastination.
As a remedy peculiarly adapted to the cure of liver atlec
tions, Dr. Starkweather's Hepatic Elixir has proved to be
the most potent and efficacious, and every day's experience
confirm* more positively this assertion. It is candidly be?
lieved that no preparaaon has ever beer, before the public
that has met with such unexampled approbation from dis?
tinguished sources, disinterested judges, and grateful pa?
tients as this medicine, and a greater amount of sullering
has been mitigated ami more cures permanently effected by
it than any other medicine extant.
So confident is the proprietor ol its curative properties in
every case, that when the medicine is used according to his
directions and the patient is not satisfied or convinced, after
using one bottle, that it has produced a beneficial effect, his
a gents are authorised to refund the money paid for it on re?
turn of the empty bottle.

Croto'i Water Pipes.
"P|OCUMENT No. 1:3.?Board of A
1.J sistant Aldi rmen, July 2Jth, 1M2.
Ke;>ort of the Select Committee <.ti the su'-Jeci of Naylor
Ewbank's Patent Tinned I.^nr! f'ir?-, for tbe conveyance
ci die Cro'.ou Water. Presented l?y Mr. Scoles.
EDWARD WILLI \ HS, Clerk:
The Select Committee, to which was referred the annexed
petition, REPORT:
That in addition to the written statements presented! the
folloA'ing scientific gentlemen appeared before your Coin
mtttee, and were examined by them upon the m .tierssub.
nutted to their consideration: Drs. Cbilton, Eilet, Galg and
Griscom. Your Committee have also personally inspi cted
tiie process ol tinning the pipes- The opinions of these
gentlemen were very clearly and positively expre.-ei; :
they atrree in condemning the u>v ofordinary leaden pipes
for the conveyance of water as dangerou ? to health, in con;
sequen -e or the highly poisonous character ol the white
crust of oxidized lead which is thus produced. They cure j
side* the use of leaden pipes as most dangerous when ihr I
water is remarkably pure. Dr. El,et states that leaden
pipf.s are u.-ed in the ci'y of Edinburgh, where the water
has r?ertair. mineral qualities that counteract the process of
oxidization. He expenmented with the purest w ater while
residing in South Carolina, and found such a t-ndency to
oxidization as satisfied him of the danger of usintr leuder.
pipes. The Croton water is very pure, and therefore the
use of leaden pipes ought by all means to be avoided.
Dr. Chiiion recently inspected the Croton water drawn
from the leaden pipes, by which it has been introduced into
the house of a well-known merchant in Pearl street in
this city,and found the water evidently pollute, by the
lead. All these treatlemen atrree that tinning the inside of
the pipes is an effectual protection. They also stated that
it would be a protection, although some small portions of
the lead should escape being covered?that tbe proximity
of the tin would, from certain chemical ciuse*, prevent ox?
idization ef tbe lead. It further appears that the process of
tinning strengthens the pipe, without diminishing its elas?
ticity."
Messrs. Navlor Al Ewbank inform yonr Committee that
they are willln? to furnish the Corporation of tbe City widi
their tinned leaden pipes, which are thus recommended by
chemists of high reputation, at the same rate a* the ordina?
ry leaden pipes, the use of which they all unhesitatingly
condemn, 'i'hey wculd furnish diem at from eight to nine
cents per pound?in no case at moie than nine cents per
pounrf. From all the information obtained, and ail the re?
daction bestowed by your Committee, upon a subject of no
lit le importance, as connected with the health and comfort
ot 'ur citizens, your Committee have arrived at the follow
in$ conclusions: That the use of the ordinary leaden pip?s
for tue conveyance of water, particularly when as pure as
the Croton, is decidedly dangerous, and therefore ou /ht U)
be avoide-'. The dans^r would be le>s where the pipes are
small in circumference and m daily use, and greater where
there is more extent of turiace, and they have been permit?
ted to remain unused lor any considerable space of time.?
The internal coating of tin will be a secure pr-teetion
against the oxidization ol the lead. The tinned leaden
pipes of the petitioners are altogether superior to the ordi?
nary leaden pipes, and deserving of punlic patronage.?
Your Co.iimittee therefore recommend Uiat diese tinned
leaden pipe'" be acopted for the conveyance of the Croton
wair-r into the public buildings, in preference to the ordina?
ry leaden pipe*.
'Your Committee efler for tee con-iteration of the Board
the following resolution:
Resalved, it the Board of Aldermen concur, That the
Joint Committee on line Croton Aqueduct be instructed to
make use of Naylor k, Ewb.mk's patent tinned leaden pipes
for the conveyance of the Cn.lon water into the puhlic
buildings, provided that the cost of the same shall not be
?Teatpr than that o* any other species of pip** which is
equally safe. JNO. B. SCOLES,

race which must result from the discovery of Old Parr's re?
cipe. The fine herbal medicine winch is compounded
from its direction has, in thousands of cases, been tried and
proved to be the most efficient remedy of the day. Nor la
it confined in its usetulness to the diseases of the poor; for

derangement or me alimentary ducts, and in purifying the
blood. It is certain in the cure of,the more delicate com
plaints incident to females, grateful to the ta>te, aromatic to
the smell, and rd the same time so gentle in its operation,
yet so efficacious, that no female ought to he without sa
great a boon, left them bv its venerable discoverer, Old
