THFE, VOYAGE OF LIFE.
BY MRS, M. ST, LEON LOUD,
Thou art flowing on, bright river!
In gladness, to the sea ;
An i summer sunbeams nuiver
On thy waters joyously ;
The rrudnl willows bending
With their shadows o'er thee thrown,
In murmurs sweet are blending
Their voices with thine owu,
Oh ! brightly art thou flowing,
Green sunny banks between ;
And many a wild-flower glowing
Is mirrored in thy shedn ;
And barke are gliding gaily
Upon thy peaceful breast,
Which skilful hands are guiding
To the haven of thy rest,
But o’er thou meet’st the ocean
The e are rocks and quick-sande deep,
And winds in wild commotion,
Will o’er their bosom owoo‘p;
And the barks, their sails unfurling
To the zephyrs’ gentle play,
Lost in thy waters whirling,
Thou wilt bear as wrecks away.
Like thee, the heart beginneth
Life when all things are fair;
Alas! it seldom winneth
The goal, untonched by care!
Htwo'l fairy pinnace freighted
"ith dreams of future joy,
Hastes to the quick-sands fated
Its promise 1o destroy.
Wrecks of the dreams so cherished
Ave floating darkly by,
Like the ?llant shis that perished
When the winds and waves were high;
The flowers bloomed around it
The fount now idly choke,
And the sun-bright hopes that bound it
Are like parted cables broke,
But soon, oh! flowing river!
Though wild thy course may be,
Thou "1t merge thy waves lorever
In some deep, unbounded sea ;
And to the heart is given
A calin repose at last ;
Though sorely it has striven
Wit the billow and the blast.

From a late Foreign Journal.
The “Prince” and the Jeweller,
A jeweller of Paris one day saw a splendid
equipage drive up to his door, and a tall, im
portant looking geotleman alight from it. He
waoted a lady's set of diamond ornaments, a
complete wedding parure. The price was
fixed at two hundiead thousand francs. Sev
era, designs were shown to him. He mude
choice of one, said he could grant but linle
time for executing the order, and insisting up
on leaving with the jaweller a deposit of four
thousand francs in billets de banque. He also
selected a ring, worth a hundrcz and twenty
francs, and ordered it 10 be sent home the
pext day; and five days afier, the whole set
of diamonds were 10 be compleied. Accord
ingly, on the following day, a confidential mes
senger from the jeweller's repaired 1o the Ho
tel De—— in the Rue de la Paix, and in
quired for Prince Gargarin. He was shown
ioto an apartment on the first story. Five or
#ix lackeys were in the ante chamber. The
privee took the ring, and gave a present of
ten francs to the messenger, who joyfully re
turned home, and congratulated his master on
baving so wealthy and liberal a customer.
The jeweller, with the utmaost punciuality,
carried home the diamonds on the day appoint
ed. The prince was in his study, sinting be
fore his cylindrical secretary, which was open.
The jeweller handed the casket to him, and
his highness minutely inspected the jewels ;
suddeoly one of the valets entered the room
and announced ‘Prince Dolgoroki.’
‘Ah! my brotber in law," exclaimed his
highness.
‘1 do not wish him 1o see the present which
I destine for his sister. Request him to stay
in the drawiog room, and | will come to him
immediately." He touched the table, the cyl
inder moved, and the secretary closed; the
diamonds were within it; but on the table
there lay an open box filled with leather bags,
and numerous rouleaux of lonis were huddie.
together in confusion. The jeweller bad ob.
served all this treasure on his first arrival; but
bis attention was particularly attracied by a
large Russia leather porifolio well lined with
biliets de banque, the edges of which were vis
ible.
His highness left the room, saying he would
return very shoitly. The jeweller begged he
would oot hurry bimself. "About twenty min
utes elupsed, and a sort of vague apprehension
assailed the jeweller. At length the door op
eoed. Oh! here is highness thought he.—
But no, it was the master of the hotel, who,
stepping up to the jeweller, said :
*‘Are you waiting for anybody, sir 7’
‘I am waiting the return of Prince Garga
rin, to whom I have just sold a set of dia
moods for two hundred thousand francs.-—-
Are you his secretary 1’
‘I am his dupe, and so | presume you are !
*What do vou mean? His dupe! Im
possible! ‘The jewels are shut up in his sec
retary. Besides, look at all this money !’
He seized on one of the leaiher bags, and
opening it, discovered, to his horror, that it
was filled with nails ; the rouleanx contained
nothing, and the portfolio scraps of waste pa
per. However, the jeweller consoled himself
~the diamoods were still safe. A locksmith
was sent Br; the secretary was opened, and
ol hiorror ! it was empty. It stood on one
side of the room, against a wali in which a
hole bad been made, and, there being a cor
responding hole in the back of the secretary,
the jewels had with perfect ease been convey
ed into an adjoining apartment.
The despair of the unfortunate jeweller
may bereadily conceived. The master of the
hotel, 100, who had let his apartments 1o the
pretended prince Gargarin, had been exten
sively swindled. The servants all helonged
to the hotel, with the exception of the ralet ‘
de chambre, who was the companion and con- ‘
federate of the prince.
It was ascertained that they bad decamped
in a coach, from the door of the hotel. Eve.
Ty exertion was made 1o trace them out. but
several years elapsed before they were discov
ered. '}'be Jeweller who was neatly ruined
by this robbery, removed to another quarter
of Paris, and established Limself under a new
name. Oone day a messenger called on him
from M. Te———, 4 gentleman holding an
official situation, who was very ill and wished
to purchase some rings. The poor jeweller
had naturally become suspicious ever since
his fatal adventure with prince Gargarin; and
instead of sending his shopman, he took the
riogs himselt. He was showp into a bed
chamber, which wag partially lighted owing to
the sitvation of (he windows, the loom was all
in shade, except in (hat where the bed siood.
What was the surprise of the jeweller when
hie discovered in the invalid M. T e, the
swindler, who had sume years previously de.
trauded him io the assumed character of the
Prince Gargarin ! For a few momenis he
was struch dumb with amazemenr, Howev.

cacy peculiar to the age of Louis XV. This
circumstance was important in proof of his
= | ¢laim to the possession of the box. When
M. T ecmmes asked him to set a value on it,
he said, without hesitation t—=
*l consider it worth mote than filty thou

‘Fifty thousand francs!" exclaimed M,

‘Sir," resumed the jeweller, ‘I will not re

M. Tee—— was completely blinded by
this deep laid scheme. He was a good con
noisseur of objects of virtu, and he was not a
little gratified to find his box so much averval

without apening his purse. T'he most exg

*Who will fix the price of the box 1
*You, sir," coolly replied the jeweller,
‘Me? you are jesting.’
‘I assure you, sir, 1 am quite serious. 1
would willingly lay a good wager that you will
value the box at five hundred thousand franes.'
M. Te——— directed at the two witnesses
a look which seemed to say, the man is mad;
but the jeweller added—
*You will value it ut that price. lam cer
taio you will. But first of all | have to ue
quaint you with a circomstance connected
with this box, which will enuble you to per
cewve its real value.’
M. Temee, full of curiosity and anxiety,
consented to hear the jeweller's communica
tion in private. 'l‘h\ two neighbors, taking
the box with them, adjourned tothe drawing
room; and M. Te——— and Ihe jeweller
f being left aloune, the latter said
*Sir, it is uow about sixteen years ago since
that suuff box was stolen from me, and a
shortt time afrer you robbed me of fifty thou
sand erowos worth of diamonds, under the as
sumed nane of Prince Gargarin. 1 huve now
discovered you. My evidence relative to the
robhery is on record. You have declared the
snufl box to be yours, and | can prove haviog

cret which will place the truth of my assertion
beyond a doubt. Now, sir, tell me whether
you are inclined to defend youwrsell in the
criminal suit which I intend forthwith to insti
tute against you.'
Every word uttered by the jeweller fell like
a thunderbolt on the ears of M. Te———m.,
Overwhelmed with the consciousness of his
guilt, his imagioation pictured all the horrors
ol imprisonment, trial, sentence and the scaf
fold. He reflecied, and the jeweller saide—
*Sir, I give you five miautes to form your
determination.’
Atthe expiration of thatinterval, M. T e,
in a faltering voice directed the Jeweller to
open a drawer in which he would find billets
de banque for three hundred thousand francs,
and he signed a bond for two hundred thou
sand fruncs, payuble at his banker's that same
day. This being dove, the jeweller called in
the witnesses,
‘Geotlemen,’ 84id he, *[ have at length con
vinced M., Temmm— of the leal value of (he
souff box. You see the price at which he
purchased it back from me.’
~ *1 have given five hundred thousand francs,’
sald M. Toannns,
‘Here is your box,’ said the jeweller, restor
ing it, *and | will let you have the ringsin the
bargain,’
The votary, who was no less amazed (han
the other witness, said—
" There is some mystery in all this.’
‘Probably there is,’ repiied the Jeweller.—
"M. T may explain it if he pleases;
for my part | promise erernal secrecy.’
With these words, he took his departure,
leaving the witness bewildered in a maze of
conjecture. M. T . though immense
ly rich (he was said 10 possess upwards of
three millions) never recovered from the mor.
tification attendant on this unexpected discov
ery.
DoG DraMA.—A Paris correspondent gives
the following description of a new style of dra
ma which has beea got up at Paris ;
A few weeks ago we were caughtin a show
er in the Champs Elysees, and there was no
refuge near bot Corvie's show, so in we went
and took our seat. T'he curtain soon rose,
exhidiung the dining room of a restaurant.
Presently a lady and gentleman, (read a dog
and monkey) came in and seated themselves at
a table, and were soon followed by two others
like themselves. They were all dressed, of
course in the height of fashion. One of the
gentlemen koocked his knife handle on the la.
ble 1n the most savage monner, and immedi
ately a mookey ran 10 dressel like a waiter ;
and I am sure | never saw so ridiculous a fig
ure in my life. He brought in Iwo highted
candles 1o candlesticks, placed them on the
table, then ran out and brought in u bottle of
wine, a basket of glasses, and afterwards plates
and eatables. Every time he turned 1o run
out, the spectators roared with laughter at the
absurd figure he cot behind.
The distinguished personages at the table,
meantime partook of their repast, which, as
far a 8 | could see, was nothing more than an
apple and a picce of bread, with ample relish.
Afier this the table was removed, and the stage
changes to a fashionable drive. A splendid
equipage soon rolled in, drawn by foursupeib
dogs, und driven by a coschman in dazzling
livery. o the carriage was that celebrated
warrior, General Puck, with his lady and his
friend. They all look very proud, until one
of the wheels coming off, the carriage up
set and spilt everybody out; whereupon the
General became turious, and whipped the
coachman off the stage. Afier this we bad
performances by dogs ; Jumping the rope on
their hind legs as well as any school girl; dan
cing on the tight rope, jumping over high
bars and through boops, dancing, walizing,
and a liost of other things too numerous to
| mention, asthe bills say. The last scene was
called *T'he Deserter,’ and was admirably per
formed. A military court, composed of mon
keys, in full cosrume, assembled to try a sol
dier dog, who had heen caught deserting.
The poor fellow, with his koapsick on his
back, stood on his hind legs to hear his sen
lence ; the judge, a dog in bag wig. spectacles
and black robe, handed a paperto Corvie, who
read aloud the sentence of the court that the
prisover should be shot. A bandage was im
mediately placed over his eyes, the soldiers
drawn up in line, the muskets raised, the
word of command given, and the next mivute
the poor deserter lay stiff and motionless on
the ground. Soon a covered cart painted
black, and relieved by a death’s head and eross
bones, was driven in’; the monkeys took up
the dead dog, pitched him into the eart, shut
down the lid, and the coachman drove off; but
he happened to stop a mioute in the middle of
the stage, whereupon the dead soldier sud
denly stuck bis head out from the cart, doubt.
less 10 see why his course to the tomb was ne
terrupted, T{m amused the ijuumle portion
of the spectators exceedingly. The dogs
were all of the very finest breed of Eoglich
hounds und spaniels, bot it pained me much
more than it pleased me 1o see their intelligent
performances. They had evidently been ter.
ribly beaten, so much that they were utterly
cowed down, and every time Corvie spoke to
orapproached them.they trembled and crouch
ed down upon the floor.
" Eanvy Risine axp 17s Resvnt.—What
ever may be the quantity ef sleep required,
early rising is essential to heaith and promotes
loogevity, Almost all men who have distin
' guished themselves in science, literature, and
]lho arts, have been, as Mr. Macnish states,
early risers. The industrious, the active.
| minded, the enthusiast in pursuit of knowl
edge or gaiv, are up betimes at their respect
-1 ive occupations, while the sluggard wastes the
| most beautiful period of his life in pernicious
'slumber. Homer, Virgil, and Horace sre all
represented as early risers : the same was the
case with Paley, Franklin, Priestly, Prk
| hurst, and Buffon, the last of whom ordered
"his servant 1o awaken him every morning, and
| compel him to get up by force if he evinced
Lany reluctince ; for which service he was re
' warded with 4 crown each day, which recom
' pense he forfeited if he did not oblige his inas
ter to get out of bed before the clock struck
six. Bishops Jewell and Burnet rose every
morning at four o'clock. Sir Thomas Moore
did the same thing. Napoleon was an early
riser; sowas Frederick the Great and Charles
the twellth; so is her present Majesty ; and
so are almost all the nobility in attendance
upon the court. That early rising tends to
prolong life appears to be clearly proved. One
of the most eminent jundges—Lord Mansfield
~=was at the pains of collecting some enrious
evidence on this subject. When he presided
in his judicial capacity over the court, he
questioned every very old person who appear
ed at the bar respecting his habits. *What
age are you!=What sort of a life have you
led Y—often drunk, eh 7' +Please God,’ an
swered a man upwards of ninety, *I have sel
dom gone 1o bed sober:’ and in fact, it turned
out that, v le somne of these veterans pleaded
gpuilty to habitual iotemperance, and others,
ou the contrary, attested their uniform sobri
ety, all agreed on one pointe=that of having
heen early risers. Nevertheless, the morning
snooze, has, we confess. its temptation. Qur
teaders will remember Burn's pieasant litle
song:
“Un in the morning's na for me—
Up in the morning early ;
When a’ the hills are covered wi’ snow,
1" sure it's winter fuirly.”
Thomson. the author of *The Sessons,’
passed great portion of his time in bed.
Dean Swift, we are told, lay in bed until
eleven o'clock every morning, to think of wit
for the day.
Sir Walter Scott observed: ‘I like to lie
simmering over things for o hour or so before
1 get up and there's the time | am drewsing
to overhaul my haif sleeping, half-waking
projet de chapitre, \nd when | ge. the paper
betore me, it commonly ransjofl pretty easily.’
We have always considered the orning toilet
shonld be gone through very methodically
and very deliberately; it is o ceremony that
should not be 100 hastily performed ; during
the operation of shaving in particular, which |
ought always to be performed slowly, many |
strange fancies, and thoughtful suggestions |
may flit across the mind. 11 should, however, |
be added that Sir Walter Scort, during the |
greater part of his life, rose i)yfiveoc'.luck‘:
and that his literary work was chiefly accom
plished before breakfast.—Tlousehold Words.

My patients, while in Boston, procured some of your Cor.

it hardly possible for him ever to regain his full strength,
I prescribed the usual medicine used in those cases in the
hospital, but they had no effect, In the meantime, he
‘mrclmred some of your Cordial, which has etfected a cure,
am satisfied no other medicine would. I shall ever re
commend it, whenever an opportunity occurs,”
The Medical Journals have not, in a single instance
