I'd have her learn painting and music, Gymnastics and dancing, pray do PhiloBophv, grammar, and logic ; You'll teacli her to read, of course, too ! " I wisii her to learn every study ; Mathematics are down in my plan, But of figures she scarce has an inkling ; Pray instruct in those, if you can. I'd have her taught Spanish and Latin, _ Including the language of France; Never mind her very bail English, Teach her that when you find a good chance. " On the harp she must be a proficient, And play the guitar pretty soon, And sing the las: opera music E'en though she can't turn a right tune? You must see lhat her manners are finished, That she moves with a Hebe-like grace; For though she is hm.e and one-sided, That's nothing to do with the caae. "Now to you I resign this young jewel. And my words I would have you obey ; In mx months you return her, dear madam, Shining bright as an unclouded day. She's no aptness, I grant you, for learning, And her memory ott seems to halt; But, remember, if she's not accomplished, It will certainly alt be your fault." The Garden of K .lei.. The true site of the first abode of man, the Garden of Eden, mentioned in Genesis ii. 8, has been the subject of almost endless discussion among the learned. The original word, "Gan Eden," properly signifies an enclosure, from a root denoting protection. The Septuagint renders it -Paradei- os,'' Paradise, a term of Arabic or Persian origin ; at least, neitlu-r Hebrew, Chaldaic or Greek. Paradise denotes a park, a pleasure garden, a woodland enclosure, surrounded with a wall, watered with running rivers, and with an abundance of fruit, flowers, and other objects to regale the senses. Thus we find Xenoption's description : the King of Persia is particularly carefut iu the selection wherever he wishes to locate gardens or enclosures, which are called Paradises; they are filled with everything beautiful and good that can be procured The term at length, by constant use, became applied to any fertile or delightful region, and was also introduced into the later and Rabbinical Hebrew, forming the word P.R.DS. (Neh. ii. 8.) From this signification of everything that is beautiful in scenery, and as the house of our first parents, in their state of innocence aud bliss, it was applied to the metaphorical appellation of heaven, tlie home ol ihe blessed. The expression oftlie Hebrew. EON, is pleasure, intimating the superb r beauty of the region known by that name. It may, we think, be safely assumed tiiat the name of Eden designates a place or region which was so termed at the time of Moses, rather than at the time of its occupation by its first happy tenants; for wtiy should it then have been distinguished by any name whatsoever. Geographical distinctions naturally arise only fiom the settlement of the grove, but cannot be well conceived as existing prior to . ucli a period. Tbat the name was given by God himself, we can find no suflicient authority. The same remark may be made of the rivers and other places mentioned in this connection. They are doubtless to be considered as post-deluvian names. The site of Eden, therefore, is to be determined by defining as far as possible, tho respective positions of the adjacent streams and regions.— Voice of Israel. —— i— MM — Singular Bott..__ Stories.—Capt. Beechcr, editor ofthe English Nautical Magazine, has compiled within the last ten years, the following curious voyages ot bottles thrown into the sea by unfortunate navigators. A good many bottles thrown into the sea next to the African coast, found their way to Europe. The bottle seems to have anticipated the Austral Panama route, having traveled from the Panama Isthmus to the Irish coast. Another crossed the Atlantic from the Canaries to Nova Scotia. Three or four bottles, thrown into the sea by Greenland mariners on Davis's Straits, landed on the northwest coast of Ireland. Another one made a very curious trip ;'it swam from the South Atlantic Ocean to the west coast of Africa, passed Gibraltar, went along the Portuguese of France, passing Brest, aud was finally picked up on Jersey Island ; ihe direct line touches at least all these places, aud makes it more than, probable that it took this route. One bottle was found after sixteen years swimming ; one after fourteen, and two after t*.n years. A few only traveled more than one year, and one only five days. This last was sent off by the captain ofthe Racehorse, on the 17th of April, in the Caribbean Sea, and was fouud ou the 22d. after having gone through three degrees of longitude in a western direction. Capt. M'CIure of the Investigator, well known since his discovery of the northwest strait, threw a bottle into the sea in 1750 on his way to Behriug's Strait. It ewam 3.600 miles in 206 days, and was picked up on the Honduras coast. A work like that of Capt. Beech- er's cannot fail to throw some light on the different observations of the current of the sea. CHno\-oi.oar of Ambkican Literati;he,—In 103(i the firi-t book was printed in New England. Not till 170i was there a paper published. The News Letter was then started and continued for 72 years, until after the commencement of the revolution ; the Boston Gazette was next published, and the third was the Couraut, by the elder brother of Ben. Franklin. The first paper printed in New York wan in 1725; in Philadelphia, 1719. And now, by the last census of New York, not less than 424 papers are published, aud 2800 in the Union, with an average circulation of 1725. In 1732, Ben. Franklin began hisl'oor Richard's Almanac. The first- tragedy written in America was by Benjamin Coleman, a student at Harvard, and there acted on commencement day. It was entitled "Gustnvus Vasa," Coleman was settled afterwards in Boston, and was nn eloquent nnd altcc- lionate minister. In the hundred sermons he printed, are historical aud biographical facts of value to the historian. Prices op Wine and Beef.—Ttie butchers' shops says the author of -'England in the Times of Shakspeare," astonish us by their prices : A fat ox, 26s ; a fat wether, 3s 4d; and the same price for a fat calf; a fat Iamb, 12d; three pounds of beef a penny. Everywhere the same cheapness. Milk from it farm in the Minoiies, the three ale pints, Hd in summer aud 2id In winter. Wine, too, is very cheap, and within the reach of any poor man, though not quite so much so as in Henry the Eighth's time, when, by statute. Gascon wine was sold at Ss the. gallon, end the cheapest at Id a pint, and 4d the bottle. Malmsey and sack at 6d the gallon. [It would be well to bear in mind, however, that in the time of Henry VIII. a penny was equal to a shilling of the present time.] Silence is an antidote against a slanderous tongne. Charter Oak.—The interest felt all over onr country, in the old Charter Oak of Connecticut. is evinced in ttie fact that the fame morning the tree fell, there were applications to Mr. Stuart, from residents of Texas, Georgia, Alabama, Mis siasippi, (the President of Jefferson College in lhat State.) Minnesota, (for the Historical Society hi that Territory.) for fragments of the tree to be preserved as sacred relics. One mau applied for piece for a cabinet of Natural History in San Francisco, and fbr a cane for Rev, Horace Bush- netl of that State. Both of his requests were com plied with. It was estimated that a cord and a half of wood was carried off the morning the tree fell. Mr. Stuart, however, provided watchmen to see that undue liberties were not taken ; and he had a guard about the tree all night. The fate of this tree will be commemorated centuries hereafter. Old men bowed with age, begged a sprig in commemoration. They had heard the story of the tree in their childhood, and were saddened at fall i3i their old age.— Hart Couranl. Ax Incident in the War of 1812.—In the memorable battle of Lundy's Lane, on the 25th of July, 1814, Col. Jessup was detached to act on theft-inks of the British army. The contest raged foralontj time, and Jessup and his corps were supposed to be captured ; but at a critical moment the army was cheered by his return with many prisoners, among whom was Maj. Gen. Sher-fle. In his beautiful report to the War Department, Gen. Brown said, "Jessup re-appeared to the American army in a blaze of glory.7' Roger Sherman,—Mr. Sherman was representative in Congress from Connecticut; his business bad been that of making shoes. John Randolph, who had Indian blood in him, rose, and, with his usual squeaking sounds, said : " I should like to know what the gentleman did with his leather apron before he set out for Washington." Mr. Sherman replied, imitating the same equoak : "I cut it up, sir, to make moccasins fbr the descendants of Pocahontas.7' A Goon One.—While S.gno'r Blitz was in Cin cinnati, one evening he had a bright little fellow on the stand to assist him in his " experiments." "Bub," said the Signor, ''do you think I could put the twenty ten cent pieces which that lady holds in her hand into your coat pocket?'' " No," said the boy confidently. "Think not?" "I know you couldn't" said the little fellow, with great firmness. '■Why not?" " Cause the pockets are all out." Never Content. -We find the following in the Pittsburg Union: Sic Transit. How many sickly ones Wish they were healthy ; How man beggar men Wish they were wealthy ; How many ugly ones Wish they were pretty ; How mauy stupid ones Wbh they were witty ; How many bachelors Wish they were married j How many benedicts Wish they had tarried. Single or double. Life's full of trouble ; Riches are stuble. Measure's a bubble. April. A timid, blushing maiden. With downcast, tearful eyef, In ber hand an opening rosebud Per ruined by dewy sighs. Oft advancing, oft retreating, She has won our hearts the while, And we cannot choose but love her For her tear-drop and her smile. Putnam:s Monthly. CoMrLiMENTARr.—It is related that once upon a time, in ttie couise of the trial of a case, in Dublin, ttie Court interrupted Outran En the midst of his speech, when an as began to br_.y under the window,saying '-one at a titne, Mr. Curran, if yon please." Presently the Judge began his charge to the jury, and the ass beiran to bray again, aud Mr. Curran remarked, " Does not your Lordship hear a remarkable echo in the court ?" Philosophers say that shutting the eyes makes the sense oi hearing more acute. This may account for the many closed eyes that are seen in our churches. Five Words in Season.—About two centuries aud a half ago, the Legislature of .Scotland enact ed that " a good and sufficient school," shall be erected and maintained in every parish. To these five words, " a good and sufficient school," introduced into an act ol Parliament, not larger than a man's thumb, is Scotland indebted at this day tor nearly every solid glory she possesses. It is the great art and philosophy of life to make the best of the present, whether it be gcod or bad ; and to bear the o e with resignation, and to enjoy the other with thankfulness nnd moderation." Import-mi BfeWfl ItrInt.-*-. to StoKCSO*. Through the kindness of ex-Lieut, Governor Purdy, we have been furnished with the following important intelligence^ from New York, conveyed in a letter lo him d.ited on the morning of the steamer's sailing. It wm currently reported, that Vanderbilt and Garrison had come to Home arrangment by which they should, in future, conduct the Nicaragua Route jointly- Thin of eoun.ii would remove all dissensions between the gentlemen, and place Walker permanently at the ht%<\ o.' the Nicaraguai. government; for it in well known, that the only foe he has to contend againit is Commodore Vanderbilt. We are very much inclined tobelieye the truth of this romor, as --compromise between the gentlemen must certainly ba more beneficial to their mutual interest* than a long nnd deadly struggle, which can only remit in great pecuniary loss to both, without any adequate compensation.— San Franeiico Herald. StJPPldKB Votnd.— The Assembly adopted am" olution appropriating $5,000 to bs immediately applied to the purchase of provision!*, for the (.tarring prisoners of San Quentin. Thinking it dangerous to entrust this money in the hands of Estill j his name was stricken out and (hat of J.C.Gordon inserted as disbursing agent of the State, and L. II. Allen, of San Francisco, wus authorized to procure supplies. Reward Ofkkred.— Judge Barbour, of the District Court of Yuba county, olfern $250 reward for the apprehension and delivery to th.. Sherifl1 of Yuba county, at Marysville, of one Domingo Quin- sei. an Italian, who escaped from the Yuba jail, on the night of the 7th, having been convicted of murder, and under sentence of death. Railways FROM the South.—The Vicksburgb, Shreveport and Texas Railroad, from the Mi-mii.- sippi to Monroe, 74- miles, to Shreveport, 171 miles, and to the State line of Texas, where il meets the Southern Pacific read, 189 miles, in Id the hands ot energetic contractors, »_» hnve th _- first 3't miles completed, anil are laying down tha iron superstructure. It is estimated that withia four years the Pacific road will be completed to* ihe Trinity, in Texas and the Louisiana road to- State line, making a distance o-C nearly 400 milen. The Congressional land grant to the roadr amounts to 420,924 acres, and most of it Is the Qnest land in the State. Extent of P-nue Laxos.—Au Atlantic paper sets lorth ttie following rather striking exhibit of the extent of the public lands belonging to tho United States : The public lauds yet remaining flnsold In the Territories, arc equal in e.yteut to the present thirty-one States, or more -ban all Europe, except Russia. Our sales and grant* of Ihe public domain for 1850, amount to seventeeu millions six hundred thousand acres, a larger extent of territory than Belgium and Holland; united. During the past year, Congress has granted to railroad* outside of.the foregoing estimate, Bwen.y-oiie million acres—making a total of sales and grants in one year, of thirty one million acres! This is equal in extent to tttll Tenu'-flsee, or to one-third of France I ROSE.?.—The London Athenieum says that we have added but a Aozea roses to the li.-. known to the inhabitants of Rome 1200 years a*,'o. Rosea were numerously used in that age upon all occasions from birth to death. Time HKl-B and Thkrk.—At 3 o'clock in Boston it is nearly 8'clock in London. When, therefore. the Atlantic Telegraph is completed, the afternoon papers here will contain tbe evening newi from Parliament and Coart. The Danbury Times is responsible for tha following: " Of what occurrence mentioned in tli. Bible do a company of drunken men remind us? The spirits entering into the swine." Fruitful.—A lady, with her husband, recently stopped at a hotel, tn Covington, Ky„ in company with 32 children. She was tho mother ol them all, and CO years of age. There are smart ladies in Cincinnati. One of the smart kind was recently detected pocketing a package of gloves while making some purchase-*-. B*.*ing accused ofthe theft, she with tears confessed, and handed out a S20 bill to pay for tho stolcu package. The merchant charged 35, aud gave her the balance in change. All right. Too lat*. discovered it was all wrong—the $20 was a counterfeit! Cincinnati stock of smart people is looking up. _ In the interior ol Peru there has been discovered a beautiful tunnel under a river, the work of old Inca Indians, and a lusting proot of their civilization. A witty editor of the Fremont school who has just failed, says he did it with all the honors of wr.r, nnd retired from the field with colors flying, sheriff's Hags finite, ing from two windows and tin- door. " Though lost to sight, to memory dear," as the maiden snid to her lover, when his face was buried in beard and whiskers. "Mr. D/' observed a brother lawyer, in a recent trial, " practices his arguments before a glass." To which Mr. D. replied. " Better before than after a glass." Some men are like cats—you may stroke tho fur the right way for yearn, and hear nothing but purring; but accidentally tread on the tail, and all memory of former .kindness is forgotten. The most cross-grained are hy no means tin* worst ol mankind, nor the ln_ml_l.*st in station Ihr least p.lished in feeling. The future destiny r-f the child is always the work of the mother.—Bonapartt. Pride nnd roughness may turn one's humor, but flattery turus one's stomach. Dickens in his " Little Dornt," tells us thnt » tender word "dropped like a heavy _to_nj.tn.t-. the, well of Clenhatn-s heart, and splashed the wattr into hi,** eyes!" A relish is bestowed on the poorer clwsMj that they may like what they eat, while it is seldom enjoyed by the rich, because they cat what they tike.
