The deep bine sea ! how fair it seems
When gleaming in ihe sun's bright beams,
And silver clouai like, sunny dreams,
Glide oV "s placid breast.
The bieeze sighs softly o'er the wave,
As «lient as the banks they lave,
Jfor every wind sleeps in its cave,
Each billow is at rest !
The dark blue sea! how pure and bright,
When resting in the hush of night,
Bullied in the radiance of moonlight,
So fair and yet so cold.
The twinkling stars, far downward peep,
.Reflected iu the tranquil deep,
Whose bosom glows in quiet sleep,
Like mantle decked with gold !
The proud blue sea ! when winds are high,
And darkness gathers o'er the sky,
And the frail bark unconsciously
Is swiftly onward borne;
Then like a lion roused, at length,
Its shakes its name in pride and strength,
And its wild roar, from shore tu shore,
Resounds, as if in scorn !
The wild blue sea ! how fearful now
To gaze upon its furious brow,
And list the dreary waves that plow
Its billows mountain high !
Now death and danger seem to ride,
Presiding o'er the foaming tide,
And ocean drowns, with voice of pride,
The seamen's strangling cry !
The calm blue sea ! how still the wave,
Soft breathes the wind through rock and cave,
A dirge o'er many a victim's grave !
Far 'inongst the waters free !
Oh how sublime must be the power
Of Him who bidst the tempest lower,
Yet sway thee, in thy wildest hour,
Thou glorious dark blue sea!

Planters are not generally aware of the economy
and advantage of slate roofs for dwpltmg*, sugar
houses, corn cribs, &e. The original cost is not
more than double that for even ordinary shingles,
which last but a few years, while the slate isimpe*
rishable. The nos\ of putting on is no greater.—
The safety from fire and from lightning is so well
understood that the cost of insuring slate covered
buildings is about one half. With a well laid slate
roof leakage is impossible. Taken altogether, the
additional expense upon a good building invariably
proves to be a judicious economy.
One qüarrer pitch make" a roof sufficiently steep
forslaie. Most roofs, now shingled, are strong
enough forslatins without additional braces.

AND THE BRITISH QUARTERLY REVIEWS.
OWING to the late revolutions and counter re
volutions among the nations of Europe,
which have followed each other in such quick sue«
cession, and of which '-the end is not yet, the lead
ing periodicals of Great Britain have become^n>
vested with a degree of interest hitherto unknown.
I hey occupy a middle ground between the) hasty,
disjointed and uecessaiilv imperfeet records of|the
newspapers, and the elaborate and ponderous trea»
tises to be furnished by the historian at a future'day:
Whoever reads these periodicals obtains a correct
and connected account of all the nrportant political
events of the old world, as they occur, aud learns
the various conclusions drawn from them by the
leading spirit» of the age. The American p u b.
Iishers therefore deem t proper to call renewed*!
tentiou to the works they republish, and the very
low prices at which they are offered to subscribers.
The following is their list, viz:
The London Quarterly Review—The Edin
* burgh Review—The North British Re•
vine—The Westminster Review—.
and Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine.
In these „periodicals are combined the views, mo
derately, though clearly and iiimly expressed, of
the three great parties iu England—Tory, Whig and
Radical—Blackwood and the London Quarterly
are Tory; the Edinbtirg Review, Whig: and Ihe
Westminster Review, Liberal. The North British
Rev iew owes its establishment to the last great ec
clesiastical movement in Scotland, and is not ultra
in its views on any one of the grand departments
of human knowledge; is was originally edited by
Dr. Chalmers, ahd now, since his death, is con
ducted by his soil inlaw, Dr Haqna, associated
with Sir David Brewster. Ils literary character is
of the very highest order The Westminster, though
reprinted under that title only, is published in Enge
land under the title of the Foreign Quarterly and
Westminster, it being in fact a union of the two
Reviews formerly published and reprinted under
separate titles, ft has, therefore the advantage by
this combination of uuiting in one work the best
features of boih, as heretofore issued.
The above periodicals are reprinted in New
York immediately on their arrival by the British
steamers, in a beautiful clear type, on fine white
»aper, and are faithful copies of the originals—
Blackwood's Magazine being an e*act fac simile
of the Edinburgh edition.
