THE ORPIHIAN CIRL,
I have no mother!—for she died
When | was very young;
But her memory still around my heart,
Like morning mists has hung.
They tell me of an angel form,
That watched me while | slept,
And of a soft and gentle hand
That wiped the tears | wepti—
And that same hand that held iy own,
When 1 began to wallk,
Aud the joy that sparkled in her eyes
Wheun tirst 1 tried to talk—
For they say the mother's heart is pleased
When infaut charms expand
[ wonder if she thinks of me,
In that bright, hay py land;
For 1 know she is in heaven, now
T'hat holy place of rest—
For she was always good to me,
And the good ulone are blest,
1 remember, too, when I wasill,
She Kis<'d my burning brow,
And the tear that fell upon my cheok
I think | feel it now.
And 1 have still soma hitle hools
She learn’d me how to spell;
And the chiding, or the Kiss she gave,
I still remcinber well
And then she used to kneel with me,
And teach me how to pray,
And raise my hands to heaven,
And tell me what to sav.
00, mother! mother! in my heart
Thy image still shall be,
And | will hope in heaven at last
That I may meet with thee, P, K. S
MISCELILANY.
SHIPYMASTERS,
A late number of the “Sailor’s Mag
azine’’ contains an article on the char
acter of American Shipmasters,—urging
them to unite for the exereise of that in
fluence to which they are catitled and
whichthey have not hithertoexerted. The
remarks are, we think, very just, and the
suggestions entitled to the consideration
of the class to whom they are addressed.
We make the following extract:—
No person can form an extensive ac
quaintance with the masters of vessels
employed in the American merchant ser
vice, without being struck with the a
mount of character that is possessed a
mong them. Whatever gocs to consti
tute weight of character, whether we
consider native talents, solid jedgement,
a gnml cducation, whether an extensive
acquaintance with men and things, gen
tlemanly deportment, decision of charac
ter, habits of promptness and encrgy, ca
pacity for the discharge of husiness; this
body of men may sately challenge a com
parison with any other class of persons in
thig or any other country,
It 18 manitest that such a body of men,
thus qualitied; and having so extensive
intercourse, onghl to exert a grcat intlu
ence upon human socicty. They ought
to give enlarged views, and liberal feel
ings. They onght to make a deep and
salutary Impression, of intelligence and
principle, upon every passenger and eve
ry sailor, especially on foreign vovages,
where for so many weeks together they
are placed under authority, and within
reach of the captain’s whole fluence,
They ought to make themselves felt in
every seaport, by their efforts to promote
good institutions, morals, gencral educa
tion and improvement, and liberal views
for doing good.
That American shipmasters have not
exerted that influence in society hitherto
which they ought; according to their
qualitications,needs no argumentto prove,
Their enterprice, wtelligence, decizion of
character, integrity, boldness; liberal
feelings, generosity, public spirit, onght
to have made them felt powerfully i all
the councils of the state and nation, in
every department of benevolent action,
in every undertaking of public improve
ment, And vet it isa factthat they have
never made much impression, even in re
gard to those departments which most
concern themselyves,
How many lawsthere are, for instance
which bear inconveniently upon ship
masters, without any adequate advan
tage to others: laws which would be al
tered at once, and for the better to all
parties, ifintelligent slupmasters could
make their voice heard in the committee
rooms of Washington?
In regard to temperance sailing. There
is no shipmaster, not himsclf a lover of
strong drink, who would not rather go to
sea without liquor than with it. But in
many cases their owiers are averse lo
the abstinence system,.—ln others they
are afraid they shall not be able to g"‘t
gailors if they do not give them grog. It
1s evident that if there were a hittle con
cert of action, so that temperate shipmas
ters could effectually support each other,
the thing could be carried into complete
effect. 1t the shipmasters who are now
decidedly in favor of temperance at sea,
were united, such a man could say to the
owner who still wished to put Liquor a
board, “Sir, I beg leave to tell you that
Lunderstand this subject perfectly my-
sell; and I kuow that any vessel can be
navigated better, in all seas, in all weath
ers, and in all conditions, without liquor
than with it. Aund I know what occa
stons most of the quarrels, and mutinies
and other troubles on hoard a ship at sea,
and I am determined that T owill not risk
my sellat sca againg with any erew that
muke use of liquor. And, siry it you
wizh your vesselnavigated by a drinking
crew, you must get a drinking captain to
gowith them.” And in ke mauner, he
would say to sailors. “You know that
liquor does you more hart than good, and
that best men drink the least, now | am’
determined that 1T will have none of it,
I you will go with me, you shall have
plenty of gzood provision, and you will
find your captain and oflicers always the
same that they are now, 11 you want to
drink, youmust go and ship with a drink
ing captain, and sce for yourselt wheth
er you will better your chance.” l
Go round the globe, mark every spot
on which dwells ewvilized, christianized
mani and you mark the very spots, and
those only, on which shines the light of
the Bible. All others are even now, a
midst all the learning and improvements

ness, and the shadow of death, Not an
infirmary, nor a hospitable; nora public
benevolent institution s to be found,
without the influence of the Bible,

Go, my son, said the eastern sage, to
Talmore, go forth to the world, be wise in

accumulation of riches—he wise in the
choice of friends; vet little will this avail
thee it thou choosest not wisely the wile
of'thy bosom,
When the rulers of thy people echo
thy sayings,& the trumpet of fame sounds
thy name abroad among the natious, more
beautitul will the <un of thy glory set if
one brnight cloud reflects its hrightness,

Its surface, |
Consider thig, then, my son, and look
well to her ways whom thou wouldst love;
for hittle elze will avail thee if thou ehoos
est not wiscly the companion of thy bo

They deck themselves with the gems of
Golconda and the rose of Kashmere—
themselves more brilliant than beautiful ;|
but ah! take them not to thy bosom, for
the gem will grow dim and the rose with
er, and naught remain to thee of all thou
didst woo and win. |
Neither turn thyself to the proud one
who vaunts hersellf on having scanned the
pages of Vodus and fathomed the myste
ries of the holy temple. Woman was not
born to wield the sceptre, or direct the
council; the mandates of Brama, or ex
pound the sccret verses of Menu, Rath
erbe it hers to support thee in grief, &
soothe thee in sickness: to rejoice in thy
prosperty and cling to thee in adversity. |

NERALD OF THE TIMES.
| A wife! what a sacred game—what a
responsible office' she must be the unspct
ted sanctuary to which wearied man may
flee from the crimes of the world, and that
no sin darve enter there, A wile! she
must be spints around the everlasting
throne, that man may kneel to her even
in adoration and feel no abasement. A
wile! she must be the guardian angel of
his footsteps on earth, and guide them to
heaven—so tirm in virtue, that should he
for a moment waver, she can yield him
support, and replace him upon its firm
Moundation; so happy in conscious inno
cence that when, tfrom the perplexities of
the world, he turns to his home, he may
never find a frown where he sought a
smile. Such my son thou seekest in a
wile, and reflect well ere thou choosest.
- Open not thy bosom to the trifler—re
posez not thy head on the breast which
nurseth envy and folly, and vanity.—
| Hope not for obedience where the pas
sions are untamed; and expect not honor
from her who honoreth not the God who
made thee, |
Though thy place be next to the throne
of princes, and the countenance of royal
ty beam upon thee; though thy riches be
as the pearls of Omar, and thy name be
honored from the cast to the west; little
will it avail thee, if darkness and disap
pointment and strife be inthine own hab
itation, For though thou be wise in oth
er things, little will it avail thee if' thou
choosest not wisely the wife of' thy bosom,
| Among the literary productions of the
| United States there are few upon which
we look with more pride and pleasure,
than the Year in Spain by Licutenant
Alex. Shidell, The admirable analysis
of it published in a late number of the
Quarterly Review, might be considered
as tinctured with partiality from its hav
ing been written by Washington Irving;
but the following unromantic, but pithy
reflections from the London Examiner
‘are not liable to this charge. ‘
| The inducements to spend a year in
Spain are so tew, that we are obliged
to import Spanish tourists. The power
of reading Don Quixote in the original
tongue, like the son of the old gentle
man whom the prime Miuister once ad
vised to learn Spanish, is about all the
advantage or pleasure to be derived.—|
Spain 15 the land of robbery and starva-|
tion; every body is robbed—no body
gets a full meal. It is a more danger
ous service to travel in a diligence from
Mudrid to Seville, than perform the
voyage of Columbus: if' you are not
robbed, you are starved, probably—and
worried by vermin into the bargain,.—
This comes of despotism! Spain under
a good government, might at this mo-!
ment supply all Europe with corn, and
in return for it, be supplied by every
luxury under heaven at their own doors: |
instead of which corn rots on the ground |
for want of market; and the misgovern-i
ed people are too glad to get a dinner
of peas rubbed with omions, washed
down by the best white wine vinegar. |
The Young American (a naval offi
cer, of the name of Slidell)) is an amus- |
ing companion; and, as he made the
best of his bad fare and poor company in |
Spain, so he turns both to good account |
in his book; and besides much enter
tainment, there is a good deal of in
struction, The United States and
Spain are the antipodes in every quality
of a nation: and the fruit shows the
nature of the tree; if' the value of free
institutions were dubious, the diflerence
in the condition of North America and
the Peninsula would settle the question.
London Jllas
The complete success of the Liver
pool and Manchester Railway, con
structed at such enormous expense, is
abundantly attested by the Report of
the Managers. The extraordinary in
crease in passengers alone, causcd by
the facility, certainty and safety of this
mode of conveyance, is a fact suflicient
of itself to justify the most sanguine cal
culations ot profit from that road. We
shall not be surprised to hear soon of a
ride on the railroad, as an approved
medical preseription for invalids; for we
have been told by several gentlemen
who have been on the Manchester and
Liverpool road, that the movement is
scarcely perceptible,—no jolts, no jar
rings; but a gentle, equable gliding
through space at the rate of thirty miles
an hour, almost without the conscious
ness of locomotion. The safety too to
passengers of this mode of conveyance
ie far greater than any other; being in-|
deed only that which™ any imperfection
in the materials or construction of the
car may occasion. Care, however, and
vigilant and constant inspection can
guard against this source of danger;—
and, therefore, it may almost be said,
that there is absolute safety in this mode,
of travelling. To the engine indeed,|
and to those eonnected with it, acci-|
dents may happen, and to the imprudent|
or luckless wights, who cross the paths
of these fiery messengers; but the train’
behind is safe, happen what may to its
conductors. N Y ./I:ncr. [

' From the Dublin Daily Literary Gazette, {
| Ax Iwisu Srory, “Arrah, Paul,
said one of them, “will you tell us the
story about the time you went up to buy
the forty-piana tor Colonel Kdmonson’s
davghter, long ago?”’ |
| “Troth | wasn’t to be blempt for the
same purchase; but master Frank Id
monson, that put me up to it, out o’
downright wickedness. A wouh! it’s
there the money was as plinty as sklate
stone, or this young fellow would’nt be
at such a loss to spind it in one diversion
or another; for he ped dacent for his
figaries. 1 had ye see, on ordher for a
prana-forty, to a Misthur, och, 1 dis
rimember his name; but he lived in
Wishtmoreland-street, in the town of
Dublin. ‘Paul,’ says Masther Frank,
“will you have many things to bring for
my father from Dublin?’ ‘Yes, sir)
gays I, ‘l’ll have a piana-forty, plase
yer honour, an’ a lot of carpetin’ an’ two
tables; only Master Frank, ’m afe ard
of losin” my way in thet big place, or
bein’ cheated, or may be gettin’ myself
into gaol.” ‘Well) said he, ‘I could
sarve you, if you'd keep a sacret.’—
“Thry me wid it firsty says 1. ‘My
father’s a throwin’ away money upon a
piana-forty, an’ he knows no more
whether one is good or bad than a cow
does of a holyday; ncither does my
shister;” an’ he winked knowingly at
me. ‘lt’s well)” said he, ‘that it wasn’t
a piana-filty, or piana-gixty that he
ordthered; he’s too lavish entirely of his
money,” says the cute young shaver;—
‘an’ it’s a shame for a man of his years
to be buyin’ a musical coffin, when it’s
one of ouk he ought to be thinkin’ of)’
an’ he winked so wisely at me agin,
that sora one o’ me ever suspected he
was only makin’ a hare o’ me. “T'hrue
for your honour,” says I, ‘it’s makin’
his sowl he ought to be, sure enough.’
‘Ay, an’ all of us,” says he very solemn
ly; ‘but Paul; in regard of what I’'m
spakin’ about; 1 believe you’re to pay!
forty pounds for this insthroment,” says
he, ‘it’s from that it’s named; but if
you take my advice, you’ll buy a piana-|
thirty,” says he, ‘an’ put the odd ten
pounds in your pocket for the benefit of
your wife an’ children. I’ve been very
wild myself, Paul,” says he, ‘an’ lavish
ed a great deal o’ money, an’ it's full
time for me to begin to be charitable—
hem, hem?! : ‘
“Accordingly we made it up betwixt
'us, that 1 should buy a piana-thirty, and
pocket the difler; but I got a writin’|
from under his hand, that he should pay |
the money for me, if we’d be found out. |
‘Now,’ says he, as he finished it, ‘you
‘may as well save twenty pounds as ten, |
or if you show this to the musical man |
‘he’ll take it in place of ten pounds: an’“
‘besides, it gived you a good correcthur, |
‘an’ that’s a very useful thing in this
world, Paul—hem, hem.” According
ly, when 1 came to Dublin, 1 went into,
a house where they sowld them, an’ in-|
‘quired to see a piana-thirty, The man
looked at me. ‘Who is it for? says |
‘he. ‘You won’ttell to-morrow, nabour,’ |
says I, ‘barrin 1 change my mind.—fi'
Have you a musical coffin—a good, |
stout, beneficial piana-thirty, that a man |
will get the worth of his money of wear |
outof it?” He screwed his mouth to'
the one side of his face, and winked at
a man that stood in the shop, who it |
seems, was a fiddler; but, by gor, if |
Micky M’Grory had seen him! why, I |
tuck him for a gintlemon! ‘Are youa'
musicianer?’ says the other. ‘I do a |
thrine that way,” says 1, ‘afther the
Murph—hem! 1 mane afther atin’ my
dinner,” says myself, puttin’ an the
bodagh, because nobody knew me;—
‘but I never resave payment for it; I’d
scornthat.’” ‘How long are you out?”’
says he. ‘Since last Winsday,” says 1, |
‘U’m trom home.” ‘And where is that'
pray?’ ‘Behind Tullymuclescrag, in the |
parish of Teernamuckfaughalumkishla- '
beg.” ‘I suppose,” says my customer, |
‘your last waistcoat was a great deal tof’
sthrait for you.” *Not so sthrait as your
own is at present,” says I; (he was a |
small, screw’d up crature, like a whit- ||
thritt.) Will you show me the article
I want?” ‘Do you see that shop over |
the way,” suid he, ‘at the corner? |
you’ll get the article you want lhcrc!’|'
I accordingly went over, and inquired
of the man behind the counter, if he'
could sell me a piana-thirty, ‘We sell
nothin’ here but ropes,’ says hc—‘lhryli
over the way. I thin went back to the |
fellow: ‘you thievin’ sconce,” says l,!'
‘did you mane to make a fool o’ me?’— !
‘I never carry coals to Newcastle, says!
the wagabone; ‘go home to your friends |,
my honest fellow, an’ you’ll ase them of
a great deal of trouble on your account;|
they miss your musick afther dinner,
very much,’ says he. ‘Och,’ says the|
fiddler, 'tis better to direct the man pro-/
'pcrly; he is a sthranger, writin’ down at’
the same time a direction for me. ‘Go
to this house and inquire for the owner
obit: say you're from the counthry, an’ |
have pertecklar business that you can’t |
tell no one but himsell: an’ depend
upon it you’ll get what you want.’
YO 1 set: an’ atlong last found a great
house, en’ gave three or four thunderin’ |
cracks at the door. ‘I want to sce the |
masther, very bad entirely,’ says l.——'l
CWhat's wrong? sad a fellow, all
wdher, wid a tail growin’ from his‘
fizad down his back. ‘I have news
from the counthry for him,’ says I, ‘that
I can only tell himself.’ ’lz;ne fellow
looked frightened, an’ runnin’ up the
stairs, brought down a gintlemon wid Al
wig an’ black apron upon him. ‘Are
you the musick man,” says T, ‘that has
the piana-thirty for sale? 1 want
a musick coflin to buy.” ‘Kick this
scoundhrel out,” says the ould chap:—f
‘how durst you let him in at all at ull'!‘i
Out wid him into the eghannel’ ln'
three minutes we war in one another’s
wool; but faix, in regard of a way | had,
I soon sowed the hall wid them: and,
was attackin’ the ould fellow himself in
a corner, within a lot of gintlemon and
ladies came to his assistance, the lleurin”
the milli murhers he riz at the first dig
in the ribs I hot him. ‘You dam ould
dust,” says I, layin’ on him, ‘is this nny;
threatment for a dacent man, that wants
to give you the preferance in dalin’ wid
you, an’ to lave you good value for what
I got, you mutherin ould rap? |
At Jast | was scized hand an’ fut,
till the offishers would be sint for to take
me to jail. But thinkin’ of the correc
thur that Masther Frank gaved me, I
pulled it out, and put it into the hands of|
one of the gintlemen. ‘Here,” says 1,
‘ye ill conditioned vagrants, read thut,f
|‘uud ye'll find that I'm no bird for the

“Sure enough,’ says he, lookin’ at it,
‘it describes you to a hair, you villain,

{that the bearer, Paul Kelly, is a big
rascal: an’ any person securin’ him will
resave a reward of thirty pounds, as he
|lms broke out of jail, where he was
‘confined for sheep stalin’. He is a
man that squints wid one eye, and
‘wears a long nose, turned with a sharp
lookout towards his left year.” ‘May
all kinds of hard fortune settie down
upon him that wrote that!” says I: ‘but/
he has fairly desaved me, the limb of
the divil, that he is. Gintlemen,” says
A, ‘i’s all but a mistake. Let me go,’|
says I, ‘an’ I’ll never heed the musick;
for this day, any how: that 1 may never
‘be a bishop, but it was all a mistake.’|
‘Howsomediver, you’ll find it a bad
\mistake to bate a bishop,” said one o’
‘them. ‘Oh, man o’ Moses! says I,
‘was the black gintlemin a hishop?’i
‘Paul, you're done for now! Och,

“It was all useless: I was lugged on'

it, readin’ his own correcthur of me in
