Far reasoners here's a juggler's cup. That fullest seems when nothing's in it; And nine pins set, like nvslems. up, To be knocked down the following minute. Who'll buy 'tis Folly's shop, who'll buy ? Gay caps we here of fool's cap make. For bard to wear in dog-day weather; Or bards the bells alone may take, And leave to wits the cap and feather. Tetotums we've for patriots got. Who court the mob with antics bumble; Alike their short and dizzy lot, A glorious spin, and then a tumble. Who'll buy, 5cc. Sic. Here misers may their bones inter In shrouds of neat post-obit paper; While for their heirs, we've quicksilver, That, fast as heart can wish, will caper. For aldermen we've dials true.

Whenever she could, she would accompany Napoleon on his journey. If he stepped in his carriage at midnight, to sot out on the longest journey, he found her already prepared.

From the "Court and Camp of Napoleon.' Josephine. Marie Josephine Rose, daughter of Joseph Gaspard Tasalier de la Pagerie, was born in the island of Martinique, on the 23d of June, 17(3, and married to the Viscount Alexander Beauharnias on the loth of December, 1779. Their marriage was an unhappy one, and they separated, but were again reconciled. On the "2d of July, 1791, he was executed. So cheerless were her prospects after his death, that her son Eugene, 'afterwards Viceroy of Italy, was bound apprentice to a joiner, (while h's sister Ilortense, the future Queen of Holland, was sent to learn the business of a seampstress. Napoleon thus explains the circumstance, which had brought about his acquaintance

with her. "While he commanded in Paris !

in 1795, a fine youth, about 12 years of age; presented himsef to the staff, to solicit the return of a sword, which had belonged to his father, a general in the service of the republic, who had been murdered by Robespirre. This youth was- Eugene Beauharnias. Bonaparte caused the request to be

complied with: and the tears of tho boy on beholding the relic, excited his interest, lie treated him so kindly, that the next day his mother Josephine waited on the general, to thank him. Napoleon was struck with the singular gracefulness of her manners; the acquaintance became inti

mate and tender, and on the 10th of March, 1797, they were married. Josephine was one of those who put faith hi presentments and prophecies there is a tradition at Martique, that, during her childhood, it was predicted by a celebrated negro sorceress, that she would one day raise to a dignity higher than that of a Queen, and yet outlive it. Napoleon quitted his wife 10 days after they were married; the following are the extracts from letters he wrote her "By what art is that you have been able to captivate all my faculties, and to concentrate in yourself my moral existence ? It is a magic, my sweet love, which will finish only with my life. To live for Josephinethere is the history of my life. 1 am trying to reach you I am dying to be near you. Fool I am, I do not neiceivo

On the 5th December 1S09, Napoleon announced to the Imperial council, that at the expense of the sweetest affections of his heart, and devoted wholly to the welfare of the state, had resolved to separate from

his well beloved consort. Josephine then appeared, and in a speech interrupted bv

l A ' A & i her repeated sobs, expressed her acauies-

cence. Napoleon after the divorce, always treated the ex-empress with great respect before ho set out and wlieneverjfhe returned from the wars, he always went to see her. He used to grasp her arm familiarly and

say4come along and show me your pictures,' with which request she always complied. She sometimes called Napoleon 'her Achilles,' 'her Cid.' On the 29th of .May 1814 she died, from tho sore throat. On the 2d of June she was buried in the Parish church of Ruol. Her body has since been placed in the magnificent tomb of

while marble, erected by her two children,

with the simple inscription, Ilortense, A.r Josephine,"

ing done the deed, a new idea happily fla

ed across his cranium. A large log was laying near, which he resolved should be the Joseph to jump into the well, instead of himself. Soon as this commendable determination was formed, he seized the log, plunged it into the "watery deep," and immediately concealed himself behind the curb. But where was Mary all this while? She had been listening attentively at the door, half sorry that she had denied him so long, and hardly believing that he would commit so rash an act. But when she heard the heavy plunge of Wooden Joseph, her heart completely relented, and oh! how fervent

ly she then wished she had not refused his offer! She hastily ran to the well, and bending over the curb with an agonising heart exclaimed, "Oh Joseph! Joseph! Joseph! if you are in the land of the living I will have you." Joseph saw and heard the whole, and his heart leaped for joy at this ;

intelligence immediately leaving the place of his concealment, he rushed into her arms, "Oh Mary! Mary! 1 will take you at your word!' Tho long embrace the mutual reconciliation tho many tearo of joy and long years of happiness that followed, we will not attempt to describe.

ments consigned to the bed of the ocean in tho course of every naval war from the earliest times, our conceptions are greatly raised respecting the multiplicity of lasting memorials which man is leaving of his labours. During our last great struggle with France, 32 of our ships of the line went to the bot

tom in the space of 22 years, besides seven fifty gun ships, 60 frigates, and a multitude of smaller vessels. The natives of the other European powers, France, Holland, Spain and Denmark, were almost annihilated during the same period, so that the aggregate of their losses must have many times exceeded that of Great Britain. In every one of these ships were battaries of cannon constructed of iron or brass, whereof a great number had the dates and places

inscribed upon them in letters cast in metal. In each there were coins of copper, silver, and often many of gold, capable of serving as valuable historical monuments; in each were an infinite variety of instruments of the arts of war and peace, many formed of materials such as glass and earthen-warcci-pable of lasting lor indefinite ages when once removed from the mechanical action

of the waves and buried under a mass of matter which may exclude the corroding action of the sea water. But the reader must not imagine that the fury of war is more conducive than the peaceful spirit of commercial entcrprize to the accumulation

Ah! my adorable wife, I know what fate awaits me, but if it keep me much longer from you, it will bo insupportable. I stop, my sweet love, my soul iff- sad my body is fatigued my head is giddy men disgust me ! I ought to hato them they separate me from my beloved. Do not be uneasy love me as your eyes but is that enough as yourself your mind your all. Sweet love, forgive me I am sinking Nature is weak for him that feels strongly for him whom you love!" She was present at the campaign against Wcrmser. When she saw the wounded, she was seized with fear, and wept bitterly on greeting Napoleon, who- exclaimed

"Wermser shall pay dearly for the tears he caused you to shed." Junot endeavoured to excite Napoleon's jealousy. 'Iknow not what I would give," (said Napoleon to Bourrinne) "if what Junnot has been telling me, should be untrue, so great do I love that woman. If Josephine be really guilty, a divorce shall soparato us forever. I will not submit to be the laughing stock of the imbeciles of Paris. I will write to Josephine." The following is a letter lie wrote, which was taken from the Courier by Lord Nelson. "I think of being in' France in two months. I recommend my interests to thee. I have much, much domestic char;in, for the veil is entirely removed. Thou only remainest to me onearth; thy friendship is veyr dear to me. To make me a mere misanthrope, nothing is wanting but to lose thee, and see thee betray me. It is my sad position to have at the some lime all the sentiments for the same person in my - bd&rt. Thou tmderstandest me! Arrange it so that I may have a countrv f cat at my arrival, cither in the neighborhood of Paris cr in Burgundy. I reckon on passing th3 winter there and shutting myself up. lam weary of human nature! I have need of solitude :;nd retirement. Grandeur is irksome feeling is dried no-

fond of getting rid of work; they seek for

easy and lazy employments, and frequently

turn out to be poor miserable vagabonds.

You must avoid all wishes to live without

labor ; labor is a blessing instead of a curse ;

it makes men healthy, it procures them

food, clothing, and every other necessary,.

and trees them irom temptations to be dis

honest.

Next to your hard labor, you should be

constant in the labor of your mind. You

can never hope to rise to a respectable

standing in the world, without long perse

vering, and constant application to study. When you read, you must not throw away

your time by reading novels and romances,

you must study natural and moral philoso

phy, geography, history, and the arts. Let not a large book discourage you, or a long

history or other work prevent you from reading it through. When you have read, reflect upon what you have perused, revolve

them in your own mind, and endeavor to

understand their meaning and utility, so that you may readily apply them to all the ordinary purposes of life. If you do not understand and comprehend what you read you may as well let reading alone. You must deny yourselves of the amusements enjoyed by most young men, if you would prepare yourself for being a respectable old man. Buffalo Journal,-

LOVER'S LEAP I5Y I'ROXY. In Merrick's History of Haverhill, the

following story is given as a historical fact. One Joseph Whitaker, who was quartered in the garrison of that town in its early settlement, had became smitten with the charms of one Mary W , residing there. Long he had wished to declare his passion to her, but he had not the courage.

At length Joseph nerved his shrinking

courage, and with a palpitating heart,, and in broken, accent, made a declaration of his

love, and closed the harangue

the year 11)3, to the commencement of 1S29, it has appeared that tho number of British vessels alone, lost during that period,

amounted, on an average to not less than one and a half daily, a greater number than we should have anticipated, although we learn from Moreau's tables, that the number of merchant vessels employed at one time in the navigation of England and Scotland amounts to about 20,000, having one with another a mean burden of 120 tons. Out of 551 ships, of the Royal Navy, lost to the country during the period above mentioned, only 100 were taken or destroyed by the enemy, the rest having either stranded or foundered, or having been burnt by accident; a striking proof that the dangers of our naval warfare however great, may be far

exceeded by the storm, the hurricane, the shoal, and all other perils of the deep. LyclVs Geology.

Mary heard his

story very attentively, and then flatly refused to have any thing to do with him. What a hard hearted creature! Joseph was somewhat staggered at so prompt a denial, but determined not to sutler her to escape so easily. He pleaded his cause most manfully; but all was in vain she remained as stubborn and hard hearted as at first. As a last resource, he told her that if she did not accept his offer, "he would go and jumpt into the well." This was truly a desperate resolution; but it had no effect on the cruel heart of the maiden she stiil persisted in her refusal. Joseph then rose, probably from a kneeling posture, and, casting a long and lingering look on the unfeeling girl, left the garrison. He went to the weil; and looking into the "deep and dark alnss," anxiously weighed ihe matter before he took the fmr.l leap. It w s a stern re-j
