And the waters below look dark and deep; k , Where the rugged pine in ita lonely pride, Leans gloomily over the murky tide; - - --Where the reeds and rushes are tall and rank. And the weeds grow thick on the winding bank; Where the shadow is heavy the whole day through, lies at it mooring the old canoe. The useless paddles are idly dropped, like a sea-bird's wings that the storm has lopped, And crossed on the railing, one o'er one. Like folded hands when the work is done, While busily back and forth between The spider stretches his silvery screen , -And the solemn owl, with his dull "too hoo," Settles down on the side of the old canoe. The stern, half sunk in the slimy wave. Rots slowly away in its living grave. And the green moss creeps or its dull decay, Hiding the mouldering dust away, Like we hand that plants o'er the tomb a flower, Or the ivy that mantles the fallen tower; While many a blossom of loveliest hue Springs up o'er the stern of the old canoe. , The currentless waters are dead and still But the light winds play with the boat at will, And lazily in and out again, It floats the length of its rusty chain, Like the weary march of the hands of time, That meet and part at the noontide chime; -And the shore is kissed at each turn anew. By the dripping bow of the old canoe. O, many a time, with a careless hand, I have pushed it away from the pebbly strand, : And Daddled it down where the stream runs quick. Where the whirls are wide and the eddies are thick , And laughed as I leaned o'er the rocking side, And looked below in the broken tide. To see that the faces and boats were two. That were mirrored back from the old canoe ! But now, as I lean o'er the crumbling side, . And look below in the sluggish tide. And the" lauch that I hear has a soberer tone. And the hands that lent to the light 6kiff wings, Have grown familiar witn sterner tilings. But I love to think of the hours that flew. As I rocked where the whirls their white spray threw Ere the blossoms waved, or the green moss grew O er the mouldering stern of the old canoe. From the Scientific American. The Heroes of Industry. BTG.F.S. Let others write of those who fought ' On many a bloody field Of those, whose daring deeds were wrought With sword, and spear, and shield; But I will write of heroes bold. The bravest of the brave. Who fought for neither fame nor gold Who fill an unmarked grave ! ' Heroes who conquered many a field Of hard and sterile soil Who made the sturdy forest yield To unremitting toil; Heroes who did not idly stand, But dealt such fearful blows That acres, broad, of worthless land Now blossom like tho rose. The heroes of tie plow and loom, The anvilla and the forge; The delvers down amid the gloom Of. yonder rocky gorge: . Heroes who built yon lofty tower, And forged its heavy bell, Which faithfully proclaims the hour. And marks its night so well. Heroes who brought from every clime Rich argosies of wealth ; Heroes of thoughts and deda sublime. Who spurned what came by stealth; Who won a guerdon fair and bright. And left no bloody stain--No hearth profaned no deadly blight Upon God's wide domain. These world-wide common workers crave . No laurel-wreath of fame No monument above their grave; They toiled but for a name Among the lowly ones who plod " Their weary way along, With faith and confidence that God Correcteth every wrong 1 Artesian "Well. GREAT DEPTH ATTAINED INTERESTING EX PERIMENTS. Our readers may remember : frequently to have read accounts of the Artesian well, at Columbus, Ohio. The "Great Bore" has reached a depth of 2,025 feet, and is progressing at the rate of fourfeet in twen ty-four hours. The Ohio State Journal, (Aug. 8th) gives an account of some interesting exper lments made in the well. It says: On Saturday, Professor T. G. Wormly made several experiments; the pressure per square men, at the bottom, is 861 pounds, or 125,000 per square yard. First Experiment. Three bottles, two of them hermetically sealed, were placed in the pump and sunk to the bottom of the bore. When withdrawn they , were crushed to powder. The other," which was closed with a 6tsong cork, had it forced in and the hot tie pulverised. 2nd Experiment. Two very strong cut Class bottles were used, one of them was crushed, the other, a very small and thick one, was forced half full of water but not broken, and the cork remaining firmly fixed in the neck. The water forced into the bot tle at the great depth of 2,025 feet, or over f of a mile, was as pure and limpid as the purest spring. Curious stones are brought, in limited quantities, from the the bottom, which, when polished, show minute stars, new moons, half moons, full moons, and suns, most regularly and clearly defined. The following exquisite verse was found in a Haytian manuscript, and forwarded to the Tribune by a correspondent. Was there ever amore beautiful expression of a mother's unselfish devotion? The orinnal is in French, and the translation literal T. Oh ! God J she faintly said, upon her dying bed, I f I have followed thy Di vine behest. As my entire reward grant this request: Make me the Guardian Angel of my babes when dead. As a sample of the coolness of railroad conductors, the Harrisburff Patriot and Union tells the following tough . story: "One of them bavin? been discharged from his trust, applied to be reinstated, "You were dismissed," said the Superintendent, austerely, 'fbr letting your train come twice into collision." "The very reason," said the other, interrupting him, "why I ask to be restored." "How so V ."Why, sir, if 1 bad any doubts before as to whether two trains can pass each other on the same track I am now entirly satisfied; I have tried it twice, sir, and it ca-n- t be done, and I am not likely to try it again. .
