THE GRUMBLER'S  SONG.
Let us mnrmur while we may,
Liie will quickly pass away ;
Few the pleasures life cau give,
Let us grumble while we live.
Earth is buta vale of tears,
Filled wilh sorrows, cares, and fears;
Dark and stormy is the way ;
Let us grutuble while wc may.
e sweetest flowers,
ia are ours:
e may.
Though then
Yet the huldi
Pleasure lead
Let us  grum
Have we joy and peace to-day—
Hapoiness must pass away —
Earth no lasting joys c»n give,
Let ua grumble while we live.
Shall we, like some fools we see,
Spend our earthly hours in glee,
Joyous, merry, light and  gay,
When we uoou must pass away ?
When our life is bnt a day,
Shall we laugh that life away ?
Rather let us mourn and grieve,
That we cannot longer live.
Life is but a mournful dream,
Ending in a Lethean sire-.m ;
Soon we cross dark Styx's shore,
Where we canuot grumble more.
Life is but a grumbling play,     ,
Mortals grutuble it away ;
Half the pleasure life can give,
Is id grumbling while we live.
We believe the cod of man
Is to grumble while he cau—
From the hours he iiret draws breath,
Till be sleeps lhe sleep ol death.
When we close this grumbling strife,
Wben we grumble out our life,
As we draw our latest bremh,
We will grumble at stern d*-ath.

Why do young ladies put   their   hands   iu  tbe
pocket of their cloaks   and saques when promenading, and thus incur the penalty of a  vulgar   babil
aud stoop too decided even to please Ibe most fervent admirers of the ''(ireciaD   bend _"    Why   do
ladies, who wear stylish Balmoral peliicoats, or tbe
even more chaste-looking white   ones with ample
■skirts and delicate worked borders,   hold up their
outer garments at so great a hei ght, while those who
are less luxuriously   provided   keep   theirs  down
with invincible prudishness!    Why do young meu
who uover smelt gunpowder and never   mean   to
wear undress military caps, aud assume a   military
strut, as they parade  the street?    Why   do  other
young men, who affect   to   be   gentlemen, smoke
cigars as they walk with ladieB—can it be because
they fauey they add to their attractions or reputation for refinement by so doing ?    Why do giu palaces flaunt in georgeotts array, and sport   magnificent mirrors in front ofthe rubicund noses and iu
flamed visages of their mottled victims?   Wby do
undertakers wear an habitually soiemu   face, and
modulate their tones  iu   the   most   commonplace
conversation, even to tbe minor key of subdued and
sympathizing grief?    Why do   apothecaries  dress
off their windows with show bottles of green, blue,
and crimson, that are never touched except to restore the fading   hues   of   their   garish   liquids?
Wby do dealers pretend to be "selling ofi at cost,''
aud constantly replenish   their   stocks,   to again
incur the like  "tremendous   sacrifices ?"    Wby do
charcoals-venders, the soap-fat-man, tbe fishmongers, and the whole tribe of itinerant hawkers and
peddlers, indulge in cries tbat no one can understand and few ioterpret?   Why are   railroad understrappers, whether at stations or  in  carriages,
always morose,  uncouimuu'tcative,  aad   chary  ot
anything but   foul   and   blasphemous   language?
Why do  policemen stand idly all the   day long lu
sunny comers in winter, or shady ones io summer
and suffer the (aw to be   broken   with   impunity!
Why, in Que, is it that
"All things are not as tbey seem,"
and that men sacrifice so devotedly  and   unremittingly to the false god, Sham?

"Ne, William Barker, you cannot have ray

iu wealth and social position."
The speaker was a hauglity old man of FOtne
sixty years, and the person whom he addressed waB
& fine lookiug young man of twenty-five.
With a sad aspect tbe young mau withdrew from

Six months later the young  man   stood   Bgaic

"Wbat! yon bere again ?" exclaimed the old
man.
"Ay, old man!" proudly answered William
Barker. "I am hero, your daughter s e-qual aud
yours,"
The old man's lips curled witb -.corn. A derisive smile lit up bis cold features; when, casting
violently upou the marble center-table an enormous roll of greenbacks, William Bnrker cried :
"See! Look on tbis wealth! And I've tenfold
more. Listen, old man! You Bpnrned me Irom
your door, but I did not despair.    I secured a con-   iug a del

The Laws or   (.tonus.
Two laws or modes o' operation seem to govern
storms. One iB tbe law of progression, according
to which every storm travels along a certain track
towards the Dearest Pole ; and the other is the law
of rotation, according to wbich every storm is an
aerial eddy, or whirlwind. Asa great whirlwind
:ay be revolving bo slowly that the wind produced by it will vary Iro ill a gentle brecKie to a gale,
tbe term cyclone has been adopted for it. Some of
these cyclones are exceedingly destructive. In July,
1773, one visited France, and destroyed tbecrops in
1030 parishe*fl. All tbe storms that have ever been
traced in tbe middle latitudes of Norihern hemisphere travel east-northward. The cyclones ol tbe
North Atlantic ocean arise in tbe Gulf of Mexico,
about 10° fiom the Equator, and travel at ftrpt
northwestward, throughout the (3-ull; then recurve,
sweep along the obeBte of tbe United States, and
across the Atlantic ocean, towards Enrols'-, in a
northeasterly direction. All ihe great West India
hurricanes on recird, and most oftbe great Ati an
tic storms haVe been carefully examined, and their
paths mapped out; and all confiira the two laws
enuiiciated. In the Soulh Pacific Ocean Investigations have also been made ref-pec'ing the charter of tlie storms which prevail lherel and these
have also been fouud to be cyclones, but moving in
a different direction to tbose io tbe northern hem
ispbere.
These laft-s were first announced hy Colonel Cap
per, in 1801, in a work on winds and monsoons;
but the late \V. C. Redfield, of New York, was
first person who fully inveatiga ed the quest1
collected reliable data, and published convincing
proofs of hia views in the -American Journal of
Silence, in 1831. About this time Major Reid, o:
the British Army, was also investigating the sami
subject, while residing in the west Indies!; and Mr
RfdBeld'a paper having come to liis notice, be
said, "it was the first publication he had met wiih
which appealed to convey any just opinion On the
subject of hurricanes.1' Mr, Uedfieltf traced and
mapped a cyclbne, which, in October JL846. passed
throligh Honduras, Cuba, and extended beyond
N^wfoundland^a distance of over 3,000 rnibs. In
December ofthe same year, one was traced from
ArkansnS, across New JerFey into the Atlantic;
aiid anoiber from Wisconsin, through Lake Ontario, into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The width of
of these was usually limited to from a hundred tu
a hundred and filty miles ; but strange to relate,
the places ef tbe beginning and ending ol tbes«
storms were Undetermined. Near the center of
cyclones tbe aerial current someiimts moves with
terrific velocity-, aud they therefore are Very dangerous to vessels at sea caught So tbeir Whirls*.
Tbeir approach is indicated by a great fall of lbe
mercury in the barometer; but an inexperienced
navigator may be Carried aroUnd tii oue as in a
whirlpool for want of knowledge to guide his hark
in the safest course. The clipper Charles Heddle,
cited by Mr. Redfield, Sailing (Votn Mauritius to
Muscat, was caught by a hurricane and fcarHed
round and round in it for tIT hours. Hurricanes
occur most frequently on tbe Atlantic Ocean \a
the mon ba of August and September ; but they are
hot confined to any month oftbe jear.
Tbe island ot Mauritius lies dii*dctly in the hurricane track-, aud being a most favorable situatiuo
for observing these, the Government of France bas
done much for the cause of science iu erecting an
observatory there. It has been asserted by Mr.
Bosquet, of this observatory, that he can predict
the approach of a hurricane and determine tb
course it will take. Tbe barometer, be staUB, i
effected by au advance aerial wave, which causeB
it to stand higher than usual; and this inequality
of atmospheric pressure causes the mercury to oscillate for a period amounting to about 24 houta
in advance of the hurricane;
The Gulf Cyclones spend much Of their forCe belore they ren-ch the Northern States j but they are
very daugerous to coasting veseela; Mr. Redfield
firat suggested that the telegraph should be employed to give notice of tlieir occurrence, and ft
coast line al telegraph would undoubtedly be val -
liable to vessels iti port, Iu giving them Warn
ing of approaching dange!*. The CaUse of such
storms is yet a mystery. It has beeu asserted by
some persons who have expressed opinions On this
subject, that th%y are caused by volcanic eruptiona<
and electricity j but when asked for an explanation
oftbe mode by wbich these agencies produce them
they have been incapable of giving a satisfactory
answer. It is an Undoubted fact lhat tbe Gulf ol
Mexico is tbe great cauldron whence Originate
most of the storms that visit the United Slates and
British North America. All our thhnder Btol*ms
appear to come from it, as the result of great solar
(evaporation. As intense charges of electricity are
developed by the esCape of sleam frottl a boiler,
lhrotigh a proper frietional orifices bo the moisture
generated in the Gulf of Mexico, carried along by
the prevailing weatefly aerial cufrentSj seems to
generate our electrical atmospherics storms' upon
precisely the same principles* Tbia is ■*■■* subject,
however, whicb is still obscure in fhany of its
featureSj and it presents boundless scope for observation and reflection.—-Scientific American.
We call Gen. Meade's command Ihe army of tha
Potomac, a name oiiginally given it to designate
its line of operations. For a long time tbia seemed quite ao appropriate name> but it did not afterwards change, when the army bad ils base on tbe
York river, or tbe Jamen, or the Rappahannock-,
or wben it Camped in PL-nnsylvania, not a great
ways Irom the Susquehauuah, When Gen. Pope
tnok command of the-cotps of Premont, Banks and
McDowell, the army so combined was called the
army of Virginia, but these being afterwards
Wended with McClellan's forces the name was lost
Gen. Itostcrau'a corps find divisions form tho
army of the Cumberland, bul the advance is one
huudred and filly miles snuib of that stream, and
part of the troops rest on the Tennessee. Gen.
Grant's men, grouped together, form the artny of
tlie Tennessea, bul tbe majority ot ihe troops have
uut operated ou the line of the Tennessee river
lor a long time, the progress of our arms baving
li ifi it far behind. The army of tbB Ohio (Gen*
Burnside) has had most to do on the Kentucky
river, and a portion of it bus fought on the Cumberland, penetrating also to the Clinch aud Hol-
ston. Gen. Schcfield commands the Department
of tbe Missouri, but perhaps more than half cf bi8
active troops never saw tbe Missouri rivtr.
Loud Buocgiiam ASO *tiB BisnoP w fetWgSf"*
The appearanee of Lord Brougham and the Bishop
of Exeter in the House of Lords, recently, is thus
described by a l>dyt
A noble and learned lord, whose natne is historical, and wbich will livw wiih the language, spoko
a few evenings since in tbe Lords, but not With a
spark of that vigor which shook that house during
the memorable trial ol Queen Caroline, and afterwards at the still memorable epocn of the reform
bill. The painfulness of the incident consisted in
lhe almost decrepit weakness Ihe noble and learned
lord exhibited, a Weakness wliich was made tha
more painfully miuifrst when he stopped iu the middle of his speech, and in order to render his articu-
latiou easier to himself and clearer to hia auditors
removed the artificial adjuncts to hia mouth; It
was with no little difficulty he could do eo, and
wheu be had accomplished it his articulation was
worse than it waa before. He stood upon the floot
of the House the wreck ofa great man indeed. Ha
is now eighty-four years of age. Another legislative Nestor that same eveniug displayed tba ini
flrmiiy that must, of necessity-, attend extreme old
age; An ecciesiasucal question was brought ou—■■
something iu Connection witb the burial service—
and the Bishop of Exeter, who is, I believe ninety
years of age, came dowu to speak upon the subject;
It was a painful slget. The old man, attired in
his lull canonicals, as all the bishops are wheu in
the House ol lords, rose from bis seat, andj totter1
ing to the table, addressed himself to the subject
under consideration ; but be had not proceeded far
when it was seen that he could not battle With his
infirmities, and he tottered back to bis Beat', and
he was allowed to conclude bis observations while
seated.
PBESBJENf Lincoln**-, very singular statement
thgt Volunteer'tug bad proved inadequate to filt
our armies iB rather too much for even the raaro
candid republican papers. Tbe Commercial -Ad'
vertiser we,l says in reply :
'■ We have never thought that the "system of
volunteering had beeu exhausted ot had proved
inadequate, Ouce or twice, when iu full tide of
success, the government has stopped it; Last
year four hundred thousand meu out oftbe six
hundred -Called for were raised in a Very short
time. Iu New Jersey the quota is beiug rapidly
made up. By tha operation of bounties) volunteers may be bad in any reasonable numbers.—3
Had tbe system beeu urgently put in practice early ib the spring, as mauy Volunteers would be ia
