HYMN OF THE YEAR. BY W. WALLACE, Let thk tear go forth! And forth it past, O'er the crusted enow and the chilling blast. And the 6tars look'd down from their dim blue bow'r To mark the tide of its natal hour, While the torrent of hoary Time Hurl'd another wave down its steep abyss O'er-epann'd by the forms of woe and bliss, And the ghosts of fears sublime. The year passed forth! And the blood-red plume Of the warrior shadowed his sacred tomb; And tbo ehivcrd 6 word and the closing eye, Show'd where the fiend of death rosh'd by. While the Minstrel swept Lis lyre O'er the soldier's shroud and banner'd bier Where the hero paus'd in Lis mad career, To drop on his comrade's breast a tear, . Then plunge in the battle's fire! The year passed forth! And tbe stalwart form Of manhood brav'd detraction's storm; And Yksceaxck shook Lis gory knife Wet with the crimson fount of life; And Mckder scowl'd his brow; And E.itt roll'd her awful night O'er Vbrlue't angcl-kindlcd light, And made her from her tallest height In the lowest valley bow! The year passed forth! And beauty's bloom Went down to the dark and gelid tomb; And Hope expired, and wild Despair With rent locks streaming to the air, Beheld her gloomy grove; And Lote with heart and lip of flame Refused to breathe his dear one's name; But blushing for her blasted name, No longer wish'd to save, Thus passed the year, like years before! And now from the eternal shore The knell of death sounds up again! And on the clouds a funeral train, Prepare their burial-spell! I come! gone years! whose spectres loom, In the midnight's dimly solemn gloom; I follow ye to oblivion's tomb; Wearied shadows, fare-ye-vell! Heterology. Dr. Espy 's lecture on Friday evening, was equally interesting with his last, and was accompanied by a few experiments illustrating his views. One principle of his theory is the well established fact that air is heated by compression and cooled by expansion. Another is that a cloud is vapor sufficiently cooled to be rendered visible. He exhibited a glass tube, hermetically sealed at one end, to which an air-tight piston is fitted, and which is used for lighting tinder. A small quantity of tinder is placed upon the end of the piston, which is inserted in the tube and forced down; and before it reaches the bottom, the tinder is on fire, kindled by the heat of the compressed air. This single fact proves that the air is heated bv com pression. That air is cooled by expansion is of course true, as the converse of this position. After the piston is down about half way, the air in the tube is perfectly transparent. On its being suddenly drawn up, but not out. and thus enlarging the space below it in the tube, a cfouef is visible. This is the moisture in the atmosphere, cooled by its expansion. The cloud alternately appears and disappear?, bv alternately drawing up and forcing down the piston. The same fact was proved by ano ther experiment. Air was forced, by means oi an air pump, into a glass jar, furnished with a stop-cock, and containing a small quantity of watei. The temperature of the air in the jar being thus increased by compression, a poruon ot tne water was changed to trans parent vapor. A portion of the air being then suffered to escape from the jar, the remainder is expanded, and of course cooled, and the transparent vapor is converted into a vissible cloud. The jar being then held near a lamp, this cloud exhibits a miniature rainbow, precisely like that produced by a shower, or the spray of a water fall. The increase of temperature from this compression, is ascertained by means of a barometer communicating with the jar, and acted upon by the air within. The compressed air forces the mercury down in one corner of the barometcr,and of course, up in the other; and for every inch in which it is thus forced down the compressed air increased 16 degrees in temperature. All these facts account for the disappearance of clouds in descending. The Common velocity of these upward currents can be exactly calculated, for air is subject to the hydraulic laws of all other fluids. From all the facts detailed in this and the pieceding lecture, Dr. Espy proves that a storm is a steam pozecr. In other words, water is converted by heat into vapor, and by an ascending current of air carried upwards sufficiently for condensation inlo rain; and the quantity of heat necessary to produce one inch of rain upon a square mile, is equal to that produced by the combustion of 10,000 tons of anthracite coal. Hope and Memory. A little babe lay in the cradle and Hope came and kised it. When its nurse gave it a cake, Hope promised it another to-morrow ; and when its young sister brought it a flower, over which it clapped its wings and crowed, Hope told of brighter ones, which it would gather for itself. The babe grew to a child, and another friend came and kissed it. Her name was Memory. She said, "Iook behind the, and ' tell me what thou seest." The child answered, I see a little book." And Memory said, "I will teach thee how to get honey from the book, that will be sweet to thee when thou art old." The child became a youth. Once when he went to his bed, Hope and Memory stood by the pillow. Hope sang a melodious song, and said, "Follow me, and every morning thou shalt wake with a smile, as sweet as the pretty lay I sung thee." But Memory said, "Hope, is there any need that we should contend! He shall be mine as well as thine. And wc shall be to him as sisters all his life long." "

So lie kissed Ilono nnrl Mrmorv. n K rn 1

When he -awoke they came with the lark, to bid him good morning, U ana ne gave a nana to cadi. lie became a man. Eveir dav hone milded him to his labor, and every night he supped with Memory at the table of knowledge. But, at length Age found him and turned his temples gray. To hit eje the world seemed altered. Memory sat by his elbow chair, like an old tried friend. Me looked at her seriously and said. "Hast thou not lost And she answered, I fear so, for the lock I i ...... M U1IU?LU m I Lll . of my casket is worn. Sometimes I am wea ry and sleepy, and time purloins my kej-. Out the gems that thou didst give me when life was new I account for all see how bright they aic." While they thus converged, Hope put forth a wing that she had not worn, folded under her garment, and tried its strength in a heavenward flight. The old man laid down to die, and when his soul went forth from his body, the angels took it. And Memory walked with it through the gate to heaven. But Hope lav down nt the threshold and gently expired, as a rose givelh out its last odors Her parting sigh was like the music of a seraph's harp, bhe breathed it into a glori ous form and said : ''Immortal happiness! I brine thee a soul that 1 have led through the world. It is now thine. Jesus hath redeemed it. Mrs. SiGormxEY. Dr. Burnham's DROPS, or Medicine for lever.

MOFFAT'S LIFE JOEDICIXF.S. TfB EAN1M ATION. When the most important LSif functions of life are suspended, and those who are iuvalids by inheritance or imprudence are

reduced to a deplorable -state of nervous debility, they should not even then dcsiair, for it is not in despair that relief can be found, no. Let tueni first look around, and, laying aside all prejudices, ask themselves this question "If my physician cannot help me, is his reputed skill my only re sort!" Perhaps at that moment the heading of this advertisement, "Moffat's Life Mcdicities," would catch their eye; and were they in train divested of their foolish prejudices, they might, perhaps, be in duced to inquire whether Mr. Moffat s theory and treatment of diseases, differed from that of their own physicians. They would then learn that it did differ, and very widely, and with most happy results, too. If they pursued their inquiries still further, they would find that all practicing physicians of the present day prescribe MERCURY, in sonieorm, for almost every disease, and they would learn, too, that mercurial medicines, though they give present rclicf.undermine tie constitution, and always leave the patient in a precarious state of health. A GOOD VEGETABLE MEDICINE is just the reverse of all this. For hundreds of years before that ecorgc of mankind, "Mercury," was employed in the healing art, Physicians used noth ing but simple herbs. Even the bible recommends as the 'skilful physician' he who preparcth his medicines from herbs. Witness Ecclesiasticus, chap. xxin. V. 3 The skillful physician shall lift vp his head: and in the sight of the great men he shall be in admiration. y.4. For he hath prepared his medicines oil of the llKHLSb oj tne earth, and he that is wise will not abhor them. Moffats' Vegetable Liee Med.cines possess qualities of the most miW and beneficial nature. They are composed of articles the most anti-putres-cent.combined w:th ingredients known as tbe only certain antidote for fevers of every description. When tbe disease is produced either from cold. obstruction, bad air, swampy and camp situations, or putrid miasrai, whether malignant or epidemic, or by other causes, these medicines are certain in their operation or effects. They are possessed o peculiar qualities, which notonly expel all disease. out at the same time restore and invigorate the system. When first taken into the stomach, they immediately uinuse themselves like vapor, through every pore, producing effects at once delightful, salutary and permanent. When the spark of life begins to grow dim, the circulation languid, and the faculties paralyzed, these medicines are found to give a tone to the nerves, exhilerate the animal spirits, invigorate the body, and re-animate the whole man. The life medicines have also been used with the most happy success in Nervous and Dyspepsic dis eases, Consumption, Asthma. Liver Complaint. Rheumatism, chronic and inflam&tory) Dropsies, oec. a c. for full particulars tbe reader is invited to call at Mr, Moffat's office, SG? Broadway, and receive a copy ot tne uooa Samaritan, published gratuitous'J' ne following letters are lately selected from a very large number which Mr. Moffat has lately received from different parts of tbe United States. Mr. Moffat. Dear sir; It is with sincere pleasure mat i venture to address you, to thank yon for the benefit I have received from your medicines. My complaint was salt rheum," for which I have tried nearly all the medicines which were advertised in the newspapers. I, however, received no relief from any of them.

It is now e . .i . . . w . . luur uiuuiub since i was curea, ana i bare had no return of theceinplaint. I have recommended your medicine to several persons, and should advise all afflicted with the salt rheum to try it. Respectful ly, your on i serv i, m.

New York, April, 1838. Dr. Moffat Sir; Since your Life Medicines have been introduced ia this neighborhood, they have done wonders. I will merely state a few cases. The wife of my neighbor, Mr. Cornelius R. Roe, who was supposed to be in a decline for the last two years, after taking two bottles of the Phoenix Bitters aud one box of tbe Life Pills, says she bad her health, entirely restored. Mr. Milo B.Root, my next door neighbor, who was laiq up with inflammatory rheumatism, by ta sing iwo Dottles of the Bitters and one 25 cent box of the Pills, told me he was as wall as he ever was and told a gentleman in my store who was afflicted that as soon as he would take the Pills and Bitters, jum eo soon ne would oe a well man &AIso, Mrs. Hordu, wife of Johnllordu, was two years since ianen sick, and oilcn bad fits, and lost tbe use of one of her arms.

CONSUMPTION. IT is calculated from the bills of mortality, that every fifth person dies of Consumption. The victims to this disease are principally those under 35 years of age, comprising the flower and strength of our county. One of the best remedies ever yet discovered to arrest this direful malady at the very threshold, is the justly celebrated Indian cure for Coughs, Consumption, 8pitting of Blood and Asthma the "Watasia." Annexed are some of the many recommendation that might be given fr. in individuals well knewr and highly respected iu extensive portions of ot country. - The following is from Rev.
