From the Athenseum. Beauteously the clouds at ev'n Streak'd with glory and purple shine; Radiant are the stars of heaven, Bright the diamonds of the mine; But there's naught below, above, Like the light of eyes we love ! Tuneful are the harp and lute And the n:ghtingale's wild lay; Sweet the sound of warbling flute O'er the waters borne away ! But they ne'er the soul can move Like the tones from lips we love ! Wheresoever we may stray, With that light and music near All around seems fair and gay. Endless sunshine through the year; And, howe'er our steps may rove, 'Tis th' elysian home of Love !

Ctrsets and Kisses A youthful poet writes thHs feelingly to his mistress in a southern paper I wish I was a corset bone. That's to thy lovely breast, That I might be both night and day. To thy fair bosom press'd I wish I was the china cup, From which you drink your tea; For then I know at every sip You'd give a kiss to me. From the London Atla. Tact and Talent. Talent is something, but tact is every thing. Talent is serious, sober, grave, and respectable; tact is all and more too. It is not the seventh sense, but it is the life of all the five. It is the open eye, the quick ear, the judging taste, the keen smell, and the lively touch; it is the interpreter of all riddles the surmountor of all diiiiculi . I riitii . lies me remover 01 an oosiacies. it s useful in ail places, and at all times, it is useful in solitude, for it shews a man his way into the world. Talent is power tact is skill; talent 13 weight tact is momentum; talent knows what to do tact knows how to do it: talent makes a man respectable tact will make him respected: talent is wealth tact is ready money. For all the practical purposes of life tact carries against talent ten to one. Take them to the theatre, and pit them against each other on the stage, and talent shall produce you a tragedy that will scarcely live long enough to be damned, while tact keeps the house in a roary night after night, with its successful farces. There is no want of dramatic tact, but they are seldom together; so we have successful pieces which are not respectable and respectable pieces which are not successful. Take them to the bar, and let them shake their learned curls at each other in legal rivalry: talent sees its way clearly, but tact is the first at its journey's end. Talent has many a compliment from the bench, but tact touches fees from attorneys and clients. Talent Epeaks learnedly and "logically; tact triumphantly.; Talent jriakes the world wonder thakrt-getslon no faster, tacL excites astonishment that it gets on so fast: and the secret is, that it has no weight to carry; it makes no false steps: it hits the right nail on the head; it loses no time; it takes- all hints; and by keeping its eye on the weathercock, is ready to take advantage of every wind that blows. Take them into the church. Talent has always something worth hearing, tact i& cure of abundance of bearers. Talent may obtain a living, tact will make one. Talent gets ja. good name, tact a great ojie.-- Talent. convinces, tact:Cbn verts. Talent is an.onor to profession, tact gains honbrfrom the profession. Take them to court. Talent feels its weight, tact finds its way. Talent commands, tact is obeyed. Talent is honored with approbation, and tact is blessed by preferment. Place them in the senate. Talent has the ear of the house, but tact wins its heart and has its votes. Talent is fit for employment, but tact is fitted for it. It has a knack of slipping into places with a sweet silence and glibness of movement as a billiard ball insinuates into the pocket. It seems to know every thing without learning any thing. It has served an invisible and extemporary apprenticeship. It never ranks in the awkward Squad. It has no left hand, no deaf ear, no blind side. It puts on no look of wondrous wisdom, it has no air of profundity; but plays with the details of place as dexterously as a well taught hand flourishes over the keys of the piano forte. It has the air of common place, and all the force and power of genius. It can change sides with a key presto movement, and be at all points of the compass, while talent is ponderously and learnedly sifting a single point. Tnlent calculaies clearly, reasons logically, makes out a case as clear as daylight, and utters its oracles with all the weight of justice and reason. Tact refutes without contradicting, puzzles the profound without profundity, and without wit outwits the wise. Set them together on a race of popularity, pen in hand, and tact will distance talent by half the course. Talent brings to market that which is wanting, tact produces that which i? wished for. Talent instructs; tact enlighten?. Talent

leads where no one follows; where the humor leads. Talent is pleased that it ought to have succeeded ; tact is delighted that it has succeeded. Talent toils for a posterity which will never repay it; tact throws away no pains, but catches the passion of the passing hour. Talent builds for eternity; tact on a short lease, and gets good interest. Talent is certainly a very fine thing to talk about, a very good thing to be proud of, a glorious eminence to look down from; but tact is useful, portable, applicable, always alive, always alert, always marketable; it is the talent of talents, the availableness of resources, the applicability of power, the eye of discrimination, the right hand of intellect.

African ideas of Beauly. Mungo Park relates, that the ladies of Bondou, after a careful survey, approved of his external appearance, with the exception of the two deformities of a white slim and a high nose; but for these, they were kindly disposed to make allowance, being as they believed, produced by the false taste of his mother, who had bathed him in milk, when young, and by pinching his nose, raised it to sit at its present absurd height. A greater man than Solomon. The black princes of Africa estimate their power and greatness by the number of wives they possess. His Majesty, the King of Yarriba, boasted to Captain Clapperton,"lhat his wives linked hand in hand, would reach entirely across his kingdom." On this principle he was a far greater man than Solomon, for the wives of the latter including concubines and all, would not reach a mile. A Breakfast of eight Francs. Napoleon was in the habit of amusing himself in walking about Paris incog, accompanied only by Marshall Duroc, both dressed in blue riding coats, without any sort of decoration. Some curious adventure generally took place. One day they took a long round, and the Emperor being hungry, went into a coffee-house at the corner of the Boulevard, and ordered some cutlets and an omlet, which was his favorite repast. When thev had finished, Duroc found that he had forgot his purse, which created much embarrassment. The waiter guessing the motive, told them it made no difference, they might pay when they passed again. His mistress was much incensed at him for attempting to give credit to persons whom he did not know, exclaiming, " 1 shall lose eight francs." "No madam, (replied the waiter,) I shall pay you their bill, as 1 am sure they are honest people." Ht mistress took eight franc!. On seeing which, the Marshal took out his watch," and. .offering it to the waiter ead, "jty. friend, keep this in pledge for what you have advanced, and I thank you also for the good opinion you have formed of us." The waiter, however, declined to take the watch, and the ramblers departed. fiSeveral days passed and the waiter heard no thing of his friends, and 'his mistress was occasionally bantering im'for. hi? folly. Five days after, the Emperor sent a valet to the coffee-hous'eywho called for the waiter and said, "Here are twenty-five Napoleons which the Emperor has sent you, and has desired me to thank you for him, for having become his security, and paid for his breakfasts Fifth commandment, 'Pr'ythee, Trim,' quoth my father,uwhat dost thou mean, by hono'ring thy father and mother?" 'Allowing them, an't please your honor, three half-pence a day, out of my pay, when they grow old "And didst thou do that, Trim?" sid Yorick. "He did, indeed," replied my unrle Toby. 4kThen, Trim," said Yonck, springing out of his chair and taking the corporal by the hand, "thou, art', the best commentator upon that part of the Decalogue; and I honor thee more for it, Corporal Trim, than if thou hadst had a hand in the Talmud itself." Sterne, The French Journals, which in 1815, were subject to the censorship, announced the escape of Napoleon from Elba, his progress and entrance into Paris, in this ingenious manner: March 9 the Cannibal has escaped from his den 10, the Corsican Monster has landed at Cape Juan 11, the Tiger has arrived at Gap 12, the Wild Beast slept at Granoble 13, the Tyrant has passed by Leon 13, the Usurper is directing his steps to Dijon, but the faithful and brave countrypeople have risen in mass, and surrounded him on all sides 17, Bonaparte is sixty leagues from the capitol, and has had the good fortune to escape his pursuers 19, Bonaparte advances rapidly, but never will enter Paris 20, to-morrow Napoleon will arrive near our walls 21 the Emperor is at Fontainbleau 22, HIS MAJESTY THE EMPEROR arrived at night at the Tuilleries amid the joyous cheers of his devoted and faithful subjects.

Extract form on old sermon. 'You that have ears to hear, eyes to see, tongues to taste, throats to swallow, draw near, draw near I say, and pick up the crumbs I shall scatter among ye the crumbs of comfort, wherewith ye must be crammed, until ye become chickens of grace, &, cooped up in the hencoop of righteousnre. If your hearts areas hard as a Suffolk cheese, or a Northfolk dumpling, my discourse shall beat them, as it were, upon a cooler's lap stone, until they become as soft as a roasted apple, aye, even as soft as custard meat, and melt in your bellies like a marrow pudding. Do you know what trade Adam was? If you don't Til tell you. Why, Adam w is a planter, fnr he planted the beautiful garden of EJen. Now do you know what was the first t bin l; that Adam et in his garden? Ho! ho! you don't know don't you? Then I will tell you, His foot. His foot I say, was the first thing Adam set in his garden. But he could not keep it there, No, no, no; he could not keep it there; for Lucifer came behind him, tripped up h i 3 heels, and tumbled him out again neck and shoulders. Til tell you a secret, I say I'll tell you a secret. Knees were made before elbows: aye, knees, were made before elbows; for the beasts of the field were made before man, and they have no elbows at all. Therefore down on your marrow bones, and pray for mercy; else you will all be turned into Belzebub's under ground kitchen, to make bubble and squeak of your souls for the Devil's supper." Excuse for voting in a hurry. A gentleman, at the recent charter election in this city, had made up his mind to vote for a certain candidate for Alderman. But happening to fall into conversation respecting the merits of the two candidates, he received such an account of the dishonesty of his man, that he straightway resolved to vote for .the o-ther- But again -faWng into 'ronversation.vvuh men "'o' different views, he understood his hew candidate to be nearly as great a rogue as the old one. This was somewhat of a puzzling case; but nevertheless, one which, in the mind of the voter, required despatch; ''for," said he, "if I wait five minutes longer my new man will be as bad as the old one, and then, I shall never be able to make up my mind agiin which I shall vote for." Accordingly he hastened to the poll, without stopping to speak to any one, and:cast in his vote for the man who, by the latest account?, appeared to be the lesser rogue of the two. J Y. Con.

In my imagination I had taken a retrospective glance at the past, and an eternal jump into futurity imagined I saw the constable standing with a Capeas ready to take me to jail for debt glad to find on persuing it a misnomer. MORTON. Support y'iur Mechanics. There is scarcely any thing which tends more to the improvement of a town, than a fair and liberal support afforded to merchanics of every description. Population is necessary to the prosperity of the town or country, and that population being of an honest and industrious character, renders prosperity more certain, uniform and unvarying. Scarce any place has risen to much importance, even when possessed of the utmost commercial advantnges, without a due regard to the encouragement of the mechanical arts. For though the exportation of merchandize may form the leading features of such a place, the various arts of mechanism are invariably called in requisition and are indispensible to render the progress of commercial operations safe and easy. To an inland town, mechanics are equally important as elsewhere. They constitute a large and respectable portion of society in all countries: but in our towns and villages they are almost a leading constituent part of their growth and population. To afford ample support to a class of citizens so highly useful and necessary, is certainly the duty of those engaged in other pursuits. Regulator.

BY and with the advi s and consent cf the Reformed Medical Society of the United Slates, the New Reformed Medical li sli'ution has been located in Worthirgtcn, an interestingand fiourishirg town on tl.e Whetstone river, eight miles north of Columbus, on the northern turnpike. This sere has been chosen because il preserst the greaUst advantages to facilitate the researches o! the Botanical student the country arrtiiid it abounding with every variety ol medical plants i and rt o situation bf ing the most healtht and delightful in the Western ccuntiy and because tba occupancy of the larpe College Edifice, to gethtr ith pround of every variety of soil for an f xtensive Botanical Gan en has bten presented to us by the Bjard of Trustets cf Wor. thir.gton Collepe.

Nor is this truth more clearly exhibited, than ths fact, that Vegetable substances alone, are void of danger, and powerfully et'ncient when properly administered 1 a reference to the sacce of our New York Infirmary, and the success of ignorant Botanical physicians, prove this fact. The College and Infirmary will he opeied the first week in December, where students from all parts may enter and complete their Medical education, and where persons labour ing under every pecies of disease shall receive prompt and faithful attention.

By attending this Institution, the Student will acquire a correct knowledge of the Present practice of physicians a knowledge cf the use, and abuse, of Minerals, the Lancet, Obstetrical Forceps and the Knife, and aknowl edge of a r.ew and Improved svstem, that su. percedes their use, with ten fold more safety and success. Toe re will be no specified time to comp'e'e a course of study i whenever the student is qualified he may graduate and receive a Diploma some will pass in one year, others will require more.
