THE SKATE 11. The skater lightly laughs aud glides. Unknowing that beneath tbe ice Whereon he curves bis fair device, A stiffened corpse in sileuce slides. It glareth upward at his play; Its cold blue, rigid lingers steel Beneath the treadiugs of his heel ; It floats along and floats away. He has not seen its horror pass ; His heart is blithe ; the village hears His distant laughter ; he careers In festive waltz athwart the glass. "We are the skaters, we who skim Tbe -surface of life's solemn flood. And drive, with gladness in our blood, A daring dance from brim to brim. Our feet nre swift, onr faces burn, Our hopes aspire like soaring birds ; The world takes courage from our words, And sees the golden time return. But ever near us, silent, cold. Float those who bounded from tho bank, With eager hearLs, like us, aud sank, Because their feet were over-bold. They sank through breathing holes of vice, Through treacherous shores of unbelief; Tbey know uot their despair and grief; Their hearts and minds are Lurued to ice. The first time grain was ever exported from Canada, was in tbe year 1762, when two ships arrived in Marseilles, loaded with wheat. A Zouave corps has been organized in Philadelphia.

And if there be a weight upou my breast, Some vague impression of the day foregone, Scarce knowing what it is, I fly to thee, And lay it down. Or if it be the heaviness that comes In tokens of anticipated ill. My bosom takes no heed of what it is, Sine? 'tis Thy will.

We find the following article in the Sacramento Un ion : In Dickens' "Once a Week" appears a short sketch ofthe peculiarities of Chamgagne wine making, and tbe region where the vine is raised. It is from the pen ot a recent traveler through tbe vineyards of France, and will bear extracting for the benefit of our readers. The headquarters of these wines is at- Epcrnay, about eighty mile; from Paris: These Ciiampagne wines are divided into Vin: de la Riviere and Vins de la Montague ; the for mer. or those produced from the lands in tbe val leys, being the richest, They occupy a tract of country about five league in extent. It must here be remarked ihat position and as pectmake prodigious difference in tbe yield of ihe vine. In the slope ot a bill, from the top to tbe bottom, there will often be three different sorts of wine. Tbe best and most favorable aspect for a viueyard is upon a rising ground facing tho southeast j and thus wc generally find them situated, flip v^n.. ftxpisefr ww?wl 'W-4"lr-f-w luxuriates in the debris of granite rocks, and beds bearing marks of volcanic action are beculiarly favorable to its growth. There we find a thia cal careous soil where very little else would flourish but the vine. The vineyards upon these elopes remind us of Kent, because the vines, like the hops, are supported by the means of poles. In the south they are allowed to trail along the ground for the purpose of preventing evaporation of moisture from tbe soil; but,.in consequence of the cold and wet weather aften prevalent in the north, they are here artificially supported. The vintage commences wben the leaves begin to fall, and the juice is sweet, bland, thick and clammy. The fruit is usually galbered before the, son has risen, by whicb means a briskness is given to tbe wine, aud ils quantify is increased by one ton iu twenty-four. A sufficient quantity of fruit- is gathered to fill oue or two vats, to insure an equal fermentation ; and this gathering is performed by men with scissors, cutting tne ripest bunches, and mixing with them a small proportion of the slightly ripe berries. For lhe red Vins de Champagne (the color of the wine depending upon the time the busks are allowed to ferment with the must or wort), tbe fruit is gathered dry after the sun bas risen. And now commence the labor and risk whicb raise the price of these wines so high, irrespective of duty. Tbe fermentation of those intended to be brisk is very tedious. It will be well to defer tbe chemical description of tbe process until we have seen the difference with wbich it is conducted in manufacturing the various wiues. It is only necessary now to say that the liquid, or must, is soon passed from the vat into the cask ; and while in cask, those wines obtained from Lhe first, second and third, or final pressure of the fruit, and known relatively as vins gris, toil deperdrix, and vins de taih:. which are EBOSt colored, are mixed together. Tims, wben vins gris bave fermented In casks ten or twelve dajs, the bungboles are closed, and spigot-holes are lell, through which the casks are filled up from time to time with the other varieties, upon a systematic plan. Wines bottled any time^betweeu thc vintage and the following May will be sparkling. They begin to sparkle after being six weeks in bottle, and the ."..untain sorts earlier. Bottled in Juue, tbey will iparklc but little ; and bottled so Ute as October, tbey will acquire the condition termed "Btill*" Being in bottle, a third fermentation is induced by pulling into each bottle a small glass ol what is called liqueur—sugac candy dissolved in wiue, and fined to brightness. " This fermentation produced a fresh deposit of sedimeut. In this process tbe greatest attention is requisite and the bottles are closely watched, the temperature of the ait carefully regulated to promote or check fermentation ; yet thousands of bottles explode-so mauy that teu per cent, is always charged as a cost of manufacture." This is particularly the case iu seasons of great and sudden heat. In April. 1843, Madame Cliquot, the largest grower-in France, lost 25 per ceut., or 400,000 bottles before lermen- tation could be reduced by large sur plies of ice. After clouding with fermentation in the bottles, the wines begin to deposit a sediment, and the bottles are placed, with their necks downward, in long shelves having boles obliquely cut in them, ^o that the bottoms are scarcely raised. Every day tbe attendant lifts the end of eacb bottle, am! after a flight vibration replaces it a litlle more upright thu bed, thus detaching the sediment from thc side, and letting it pass toward the neck of the bottle. This process is now continued until all the sediment has gravitated to the neek. Then a man takes the bottle to a recess prepared for the operation, holds ils mouih downward, cuts the wire, and away goes tlie sediment, and I was abont to add, the wine, too, which would be the case, were not a lad in attendance with some old corks, one of whicb is immediatdy taken to supply the place ofthe one just ejected. The quantify of wiue lost by this operation depends very much upon tlie cleverness of those who conduct it, nnd nimble fingers are therefore in great request, The bottle is fiited up with purified wine, and again slacked to be submitted fo a second disgorgement, and Borne times a third. It is finally fitled, by another dose of candy prepared wilh while wine, which imparts a pleasant sweetness, and aids its sparkling condition wben opened, for the particular market to which it is going. Thus, before the wine is perfectly cleared, it is calculated that every bottle passes through the hands of the workmen al least two hundred limes. The demand for this class of wine bas so much increased, latterly, (Russia alone consuming 8,- 000,000 of bottles of France, and throe times lhat quantify from olher seurces,) that we are now introduced lo various imitations in sparkling Hock, Burgundy and Moselle. We might, have expected it lo bj free fiom adulteration in this quarter, but it is not so ; for at Paris and Cette are established manufactories where poor light wines are fined with candy, and passed through an apparatus that charges them with carbonic acid gas, and fits them for sale in ten mi nates. Respecting tbe quantity that, is made, it is understood that the genuine production of the Champagne district exceeds 50,000,000 of bottles, and the price at Epcrnay being from two to three fraucs, or Is. Sd. to 2s. -fid. per bottle, supposing the duty here to be 3s. per gallon, or fid. per bottle, and the carriage nnd wiue merchant's profils amount to Is. pet* bottle, which is surely an extreme calculation, we shall find the genuine article upon our table at something like 4s. per bot- lls. Il is, however, proposed to vary the duty according to the strength of the spirit of any given wine, and as Champagne bas but a small proportion of alcohol, it will probably be introduced info this country after the 1st of April. 1861, at a charge Is. per gallon, instead of 3s., as it now stands in Mr. Gladstone's improved tariff. Tiie chief liou of importance conuected wilh this trade is to be found at Chalons-sur-Marne, a town of M-,000 inhabitants i.;--.!^,. — <>-- -■- pagne cellars. Tbey are plainly visible from the station, and a little on the right. The statement that the French Government hired his cask and packing sheds for six months to barrack 4,000 men, gives some idea of their extent, There arc generally to be found 40,000,000 of bott!e3 ready for sale. They are deposited in galleries, excavated in the chalk rock, about six miles long, intersected by tramways communicating with the railway, and perfectly lighted by metal reflectors. placed at tbe bottom of tbe air-shafts. [Fr. PiesHltiii hy «ln; HomeoC&epr sent(iiives—TUe Election ot 1801. Since the beginning of our Government there have been two election of President ol Lbe United States by the House of Representatives. Mr. Jefferson was so elected in 1801, and Mr. Adams in 1825. The cases were, however, materially different Tbe elections took placeunder different conditions as to the candidates, and different cooslitutioual provisions. That of Mr. Jefferson was under the original provision by which two persons were voted for for President, and that one having a majority of all the votes, and the greatest number of votes, was to be President, and the person having the next largest number, also a majority, was to be Vice President. Should there be an equality of votes between two, the House of Representatives was required, voting immediately by Slates, lo choose one of them for President, the other to be Vice Presidenl. If no person had a majority, the House was required to choose a President among the five highest on the list ol candidates voted for, the next highest to be Vice President, or. if there should be two or more having an equal number of votes, tbe Senate was directed to choose from them the Vice President. In lbe election oi 1800 fhe Republican members of Congress originated the practice of Congressional caucuses, which so long prevailed, nominated Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr as their candidates for President. The Federal cundidates were John Adams, tiie incumbent, and Charles Cotesworth Pinckney, of South Carolina. The number of States was then sixteen ; the number of electoral voles was one hundred and thirty eight, and the number of members ot thi House of Representatives was one hundred and The result of the electoral election was: Republican Eelectors—Jefferson. 73 ; Burr, 73. Federal Electors—Adams, 05; Pinckney, 64; John Jay. 1. Rhode Island, which voled four Federal votes, gave 4 votes to Adams, 3 to Pinckney, and 1 to John Jay, wbo had been the first Chief Justice, of the Supreme Court of the Uuited States. The States which voted for Jefferson and Burr in the Electoral College, were: New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, Norlh Carolina. South Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia—9 Stales. North Carolina gave a divided vote—S Republican and 1 Federal. The Federal States were: New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Vermont, New Jersey and D> ware—7 States, with a portion oi thc vote of NWth Carolina. The votes were officially counted on tbe second Wednesday, which was the llth day of February, 1801. The result waa duly announced, and the House imeaedUtel; proceeded to baltot for Presi-^ dent between the two highest candidates baving an equal number of votes—lhat is,rJeffersou and Bnw. It will be seen that the Republicans had a majority in the electoral colleges, and a majority of States in the election of Electors—but they were nority in the House of Representatives.— There were 51 Republicans and 55 Federalists.— But the Federalists had no candidate of their own party, but were required to choose between two leaders of their adversaries. A great deal has heen written for half a century onthesulj ct of the alleged iutri^ues, to bring; about this contest and to defeat Mr, Jefferson,— Most of these were munaeed hftlinta the election in "n the House came on. bul after the result of the OoHegB waa known. Mr, Jefferson was at Washington. Ml*. Burr was at Albany, a member of the New York Legislature, then in session; and General Hamilton, who had a polent voice in the councils of the Federalists, was at New York city.— The Federal party could not be united ou Burr. His^reat adversary then, as afterward, was Hamilton, who wrote incessantly and importunately to throw Burr over and give the Presidency to Jefferson. Mr. Bayard, of Delawars, who held the result iu his bauds, and finally decided it for Jefferson, wrote, at the time, the Presidency was in the power of Burr, if he bad done anything to help himself. The House passed a resolution not to odjourn before a President should be chosen, aud voted with closed doors. The first vote waa as follows: Ft>r Jefferson— New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, North Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky, Georgia and Tennessee—eight States. For Burr^-Ncw Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Delaware and Vermont—six States. Divide d and voting Blank—South Carolina and Maryland —two States. Of the nine States which voted for the Republican ticket in the electoral colleges, seven voted for-Jeil'r-rson and two were divided. Of tbe seven Slates voting for Federalists iu the colleges, six voted forEurr, and one (New Jersey) for Jefferson. Thia state of the ballot continued without any change for six days and nights. Ou the one hundred and thirty-sixth ballot, which look place on the 17th of February, Mr. Jefferson was elected by the following vole : For Jefferson—Vermont, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Virgiuia, North Carolina, Kentucky, Georgia and Tennessee—ten States. For Burr—Connecticut, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Rhode I.-dand — four Stales. Blank—Maryland and South Carolina—two e, who voted for Burr, and changed his vote to Jefferson ; and Vermont, which had voted for Burr, was induced, hy the withdrawal of his Federal colleague, Lewis R. Morris, to allow the vote to be cast by the Republican member, Matthew Lyon. Of the States which finally voted for Jefferson, three—Vermont, Delaware and Tennessee—were each in the hands of a single individual; Lyon in Vermont,Bayard in Delaware, and W. C, C. Claiborne in Tennessee. The incidents of this election led to a change in tlie Constitution of the United Slates iu regard to the mode of electing a President, nnd the adoption, by amendment, of the present plan, by which the President and Vice President are voted for separately, and in case of a non-election by tbe electoral colleges, the House chooses a President from the three highest, and the Senate a Vice President from the two highest on the list of candidates for lhe suveral offices. The amendment was carried through wjch such rapidity that the election of 1804 was held under it. Statfii First Filing i>f lhe dent Floyd Gun. Old Point Comfort, (Va.) August 29.—Tho curiosity ot the artillery officers, and of the guests at Old Point was gratified yesterday by the first firing of the great "Floyd'' Gun, of which I have before spoken. The first shell, weighing 360 pounds, was thrown fifteen hundred and forty yards, at an angle of five degrees—and striking the sand, bounced 750 yards further, The charge of powder was twenty pounds. The second shell, 328 pounds, was thrown something over lour miles on the water, nl an angle of forty degrees, and with a charge of 25 pounds of powder. Tho powder with which this gun is fired is in grains of about one inch cube. The report is not so loud as that made by (lie fen-inch guns on the rampart, but thc whistling of lhe shell throojvli tha'jJ*-^ terrific. Tiie shell thrown upon the water was foriy-lwo seconds in the air before striking. Tho "Floyd" gun is pronounced .a success, and tht re seems to be no doubt it will reach a range of seven or eight miles. Il weighs 49,099 pounds, and cost in its easting $10,000. Both the projector, (Capt Rodman,) and the proprietor of the Pitta- burgh foundry. (M a cast, are here -sup* app,) .vliel tiie cannon ntending lhe firing of this ionBter gun. The experiments are conducted by Capt.

THE SKATE 11.
The skater lightly laughs aud glides.
Unknowing that beneath tbe ice
Whereon he curves bis fair device,
A stiffened corpse in sileuce slides.
It glareth upward at his play;
Its cold blue, rigid lingers steel
Beneath the treadiugs of his heel ;
It floats along and floats away.
He has not seen its horror pass ;
His heart is blithe ; the village hears
His distant laughter ; he careers
In festive waltz athwart the glass.
"We are the skaters, we who skim
Tbe -surface of life's solemn flood.
And drive, with gladness in our blood,
A daring dance from brim to brim.
Our feet nre swift, onr faces burn,
Our hopes aspire like soaring birds ;
The world takes courage from our words,
And sees the golden time return.
But ever near us, silent, cold.
Float those who bounded from tho bank,
With eager hearLs, like us, aud sank,
Because their feet were over-bold.
They sank through breathing holes of vice,
Through treacherous shores of unbelief;
Tbey know uot their despair and grief;
Their hearts and minds are Lurued to ice.
The first time grain was ever exported from Canada, was in tbe year 1762, when two ships arrived in Marseilles, loaded with wheat.
A Zouave corps has been organized in Philadelphia. Ils uniform is precisely like that of the
French Zouaves, aud the drill is similar to
theirs.

In the stillness of the voiceless night,
When chased hy airy dreams, the slumbers flee,
Whom, iu the darkness, doth my spirit seek,
Ob God, but Thee?
And if there be a weight upou my breast,
Some vague impression of the day foregone,
Scarce knowing what it is, I fly to thee,
And lay it down.
Or if it be the heaviness that comes
In tokens of anticipated ill.
My bosom takes no heed of what it is,
Sine? 'tis Thy will.
For oh, in spite of past or'prescnt care,
Or anything besides, how joyfully
That almost solitary hour,
My God, with Thee.
Moro tranquil than tbe stillness of the night
More peaceful than thesilence of that hour,
Moro blest than anything my spirit lies
Beneath Thy power.
For what is there on earth that I desire,
Of all that I cau give or take from me,
Of whom in heaveu doth my spirit seek,
Oh God, but Thee?
