THE PASSING YEAES- 
Softly the memories of years gone by 
Come to me ever as now. 
Spreading their sable wings over my heart. 
Leaving a shade on my brow. 
Like years that are gone, friends have faded away— 
Some in the spring-time of youth— 
Others like leaves in the autumn of life, 
And all in their beauty and truth. 
And such as the present the future will be 
Bright years will come and depart 
Even ns those that have lingered before 
And twined themselves clofee to my heart. 
The years, O the years, with their bloom and decay 
O sad is their parting to me. 
Their mornings bl ight, and their evening s gray 
Bear us on to Eternity.

THE HAND, 
Wiiat a curious thing is the human hand. 
Who can tell the various degrees of beauty 
or of ugliness by which it is distinguished; 
or number the works it can perform. Here 
is one all white and smooth, its taper fingers 
glittering with costly gems, of which the 
beauty can not rival its own. How hap¬ 
py ho who wins that model of perfection, one 
grasp of which might make an era in the 
life of the proudest of earth. Press it 
gontly, it is too fair, too delicato for the 
rude conflict of life. No doubt; so thinks 
its pretty owner; and while the mother that 
gave her being lends to her weary task with 
a hand trembling with age and ceaseless 
toil, the strength of this lovely specimen of 
the Creator’s skill is reserved for the nobler 
employment of drawing from an unfortu¬ 
nate piano, music for those as brainless as the 
head by which that hand ought to be guid¬ 
ed ; or weaving from a silken thread a pret¬ 
ty net—to catch a gudgeon. 
Can you see no charm in the next, as it 
comes less soft and white from toil for those 
its owner loves ? True, it bears no dia¬ 
monds to shine upon those fingers browned 
by familiarity with the sun ; but it has giv¬ 
en bread to the hungry orphan, and lifted 
to the parched lip of the fainting traveler 
“ a cup of cold water,” in the name of the 
Nazareno. Is it less beautiful ? 
That one, all hard, and brown as mine, 
stretched from its russet sleeve, may seem 
scarcely worthy of so much respect; but 
shrink not from its firm grasp. It is strong; 
yet its pressure would not wako the babe 
that sleeps upon its mother's breast. lie- 
member how often that same rough, brown 
hand has raised thee when fallen beneath 
life’s heavy burthen; how many a wanderer 
it has led back to the path of life, and say, 
is that ail ugly hand ? 
Can you see no difference between that 
and this ? “ This is as strong,”—to strike a 
dagger to your heart. “ Surely, that too, is 
the dark hue of toil ?” Yes, on the battle 
field; and see, even now a brother’s blood 
is there. “ As warm its grasp ?” yes, hot 
from tho fires of boll, to which that hand 
would lead you. 
But wouldst thou seo the loveliest hand 
that ever met a mortal’s gaze ? Look away 
on the path before thee. Dost thou fear to 
turn thy eye upon the rugged way, now 
winding among rocks and thorns, and again 
stretching far over the trembling morass, or 
hanging on tho mountain side, with the 
rushing avalanche above, the bounding cat¬ 
aract and the foaming stream below, and 
around, tho shrieking gale ? Mark that 
broad river flowing across thy way, over 
which is hung a thunder cloud whose hid¬ 
eous blackness hides all beyond. Callest 
thou this the rough path of life, and that 
the river of death veiled by the blackness of 
perdition ? 
Look again. That cloud rolls back, and 
in the flood of light which clothes in un¬ 
earthly beauty, the wildest portions of the 
way, behold, a hand stretched from the 
skies, beckons thee along. “But see ! Oh ! 
how it bleeds!” 
’Twas nailed to tho cross for thee, but now 
it holds a starry crown thou yet mayest 
wear. Knowest thou that hand ? s. s. l. 
SABATOGA AND ITS LIONS. 
We extract the following well written 
description of tho literary notabilities now 
at Saratoga from a letter to tho Journal of 
Commerce: 
Among the small groups clustered in tho 
porches or on the grass in front, you may, 
perhaps, discover a middle-aged gentleman, 
seated possibly on the ground, and clad in 
a homely garb of docent clothing, a little 
quakerish in its cut, and having on his head 
a coarse, white felt hat, tho cost of which 
could not have exceeded six shillings, en¬ 
gaged in quiet conversation with a few 
friends. Should you address him, he will 
rise, and, with his kindly beaming grey eye, 
receive you with the most affable courtesy, 
charming you by the simple sincerity of his 
words. Hero is one of the real lions. This 
gentleman is nono other than Washington 
Irving; a man, by the magic of whose pen, 
! the English language is displayed in pictures 
! of such exquisite beauty that their memories 
: linger in tho soul, liko echoes of the sweetest 
music. 
As wo pass on, we may observe, in an¬ 
other group, a gentleman of younger ap¬ 
pearance, and an air a little bordering on 
the distingue, without, however, any appear¬ 
ance of assumption or egotism. Of small 
stature, and only a respectable sharo of 
beauty, he would not seem, of himself, par¬ 
ticularly attractive to tlie fair sex; yet, there 
is about him quite a flowery girdle of female 
loveliness, all evidently gazing, and listening 
but to admire. This is “Ik Marvel,” the 
fascinating bachelor, whose beautiful por¬ 
traiture of tho woes of single-blessedness 
has made him the god of every unmarried 
fair ono who has long been panting for a 
sympathizing soul. 
* If we now turn and visit the garden of 
“ The Union,” we may perceive a gentleman 
still younger, walking, probably, by himself 
on the gravel paths, or, perhaps, seated in a 
retired arbor. There is nothing about him 
which would attract particular attention.— 
You will see no jewelry, no fancy shirt, no 
gold wrist buttons, no plaid pantaloons, but, 
throughout his dress and air there is a 
modesty and a quiet unobtrusiveness, which 
are in marked contrast with the flaunting 
votaries of fashion around him. This is 
Wm. Stark, tho “White Mountain Poet;” 
a gentleman who is said to possess such 
combinations of poetry, wit and eloquence, 
as to wield the feelings of an audience with 
a power surpassed by few men living. Mr. 
Stark is on his return from Hamilton Col¬ 
lege, where ho has been to deliver a Com¬ 
mencement Address. 
There is ono more lion whom I wish to 
show you. In one of the most retired par¬ 
lors, surrounded by a very few persons, you 
will find, lying upon a sofa, a man of mid¬ 
dle age, thin and slender, on whose face are 
traced deep lines of thought and apparent 
suffering. There is a wild, haggard expres¬ 
sion to his countenance, and his eye seems 
to roll as restlessly as though he were now 
being consumed by some internal fire. Ills 
clothes are by no means fashionable, or even 
new. There is about him an air of negli¬ 
gence and occasional languor, which reminds 
you that he is the same gentleman whom 
you saw drink so many cups of tea at the 
supper table. This is Rufus Choate, the 
great Boston lawyer, the “American Kos¬ 
suth,” whose burning eloquence sways the 
hearts of men as a strong March wind 
sways the evergreen pines. Mr. Choate is 
returning from Burlington College, where 
he has also been to deliver an address. 
So much for the real lions of Saratoga. 
There are mines of diamonds glittering on 
fair foreheads, necks and fingers: there are 
webs of broadcloth, lace, ribbons, silks, sat- 
tins and flounces: there are hundreds of 
monuments raised to the tailor and the 
mantua maker; but the garniture of the 
mind adorns a dwelling of more than mod¬ 
est exterior, and hides its richest treasures 
from the public gaze. 
WANTED FEESH SUPERLATIVES. 
Professor Upson, in his address before 
the late Teachers’ Convention at Elmira, 
uttered a timely rebuke of tho universal 
use of extravagant language. Wcdo noth¬ 
ing by halves, and do not begin to be satis¬ 
fied when we describe the whole. If we 
are to believe what wo daily hear from 
veracious friends, we must eoncludo that 
all creation is dono up in pocket packages 
for our use, and that scores of eternities 
canto every hour of the day. In figures 
we outdo the Hebrews; in hyperbole we 
shaino all tl:c Orientals. We describe a 
moderate hill in language that would fitly 
treat of Mont Blanc; wo speak of two or 
three level vacant lots in the city, in terms 
fit for a prairie,—of the ripples on a forty 
feet canal in words that would accommo¬ 
date the billows of oceans,—of a moderate 
East wind as a tornado,—of a sudden squall 
sufficient to snap a Balm of Gilead in the 
door-yard, as a perfect hurricane. It never 
rains but it pours ; it is never dry but every 
thing is parched. A cataract always leaps 
from a dizzy height to a profound abyss. A 
mountain always towers to heaven ; a chasm 
opens into immeasurable depths. All our 
autumnal woods are gorgeous; our land¬ 
scapes inexpressibly beautiful. 
Our wives are never weary but they are 
tired to death, never warm but they roast, 
never chilly but they are frozen. If they 
have a scratch on tho finger, their hands are 
all raw. If they have a pain it is deathly. 
If there is a spot on our linen, they tell us 
we are covered with ink, and a soiled dress 
is utterly ruined. When a friend goes home 
with us to try pot-luck, if the fire has been 
out once, it has been out forty times ; if tho 
beef is brown, it is burnt to a cinder ; if the 
soup is too savory, it is salt as brine. 
This extravagant waste of words bank¬ 
rupts us, whenever really extraordinary cir¬ 
cumstances demand description. We have 
no words to describe Niagara with, after wo 
have written of a mill-dam. The superla¬ 
tives due to the Mississippi, wo have lavished 
on trout-streams. We have exhausted all 
our terms expressive of valor, in telling of 
tho skirmish, and the main battle literally 
“ beggars description.” Degrees of compar¬ 
ison are obsolete. Mere positives are un¬ 
fashionable. Addison and Irving exhaust¬ 
ed all that our ink supplied. Let the ink- 
makers take the hint and add a new simplo. 
The comparatives retain their original sig¬ 
nificance better, but the superlatives are 
exhausted and feeble. We need a new sup¬ 
ply. Wanted , one thousand new and vigor¬ 
ous adjectives of tho superlative degree; 
one hundred for the description of natural 
scenery; one hundred for political oppo¬ 
nents to abuse each other with; ono hun¬ 
dred of the adulatory sort, for the use of 
office seekers, and tho balance for household 
words. Nono but those bursting with the 
spirit of tho age need be offered. Wo want 
adjectives that, applied to cold will make 
simple ico burn in comparison; applied to 
heat will make common fire cold ; to beau¬ 
ty, will make a fright of Yenus. We want 
adjectives of space that will surround and 
embrace all creation; and of speed, that 
will leave lightning a century behind.—«Y. 
Y. Times. 
A BATH IN THE DEAD SAS. 
Bayard Taylor has enjoyed this equivo¬ 
cal kind of luxury. Ono can imagine as 
much pleasure resulting from a dip in a 
pitch cask. But let us hear his experience 
of it. 
Beyond Nebbee Moussa, we came out up¬ 
on tho last heights overlooking the Dead 
Sea, though several miles of low hills re¬ 
mained to bo passed. The head of the Sea 
was visible as far as the Basel Feshkaon tho 
west, and the hot fountains of Callirhoe on 
the eastern shore. Farther than this, all 
was vapor and darkness. Tho water was 
a soft, deep purple hue, brightening into 
blue. Our road led down what seemed a 
vast sloping causeway from tho mountains, 
between two ravines walled by cliffs several 
hundred feet in height. It gradually flat¬ 
tened into a plain, covored with a white sa¬ 
line incrustation, and grown with clumps of 
sour willow, tamarisk and other shrubs, 
among which I looked in vain for the osier, 
or Dead Sea apple. Tho plants appeared 
as if smitten with leprosy, but there were 
some flowers, growing almost to the margin 
of the Sea. We reached tho shore about 2 
P. M. The heat by this time was severe, 
and the air so dense as to occasion pains in 
my cars. The Dead Sea is 1,300 feet be¬ 
low the Mediterranean, and without doubt 
tho lowest part of tho earth’s surface. I 
attribute the oppression I felt to this fact, 
and to the sultriness of the day, rather than 
to any exhalation from the sea itself. Fran¬ 
cois remarked, however, that had tho wind 
which by this time was veering round lo the 
north-east, blown from the south, we could 
scarcely have endured. The sea resembles 
a great cauldron, sunk between mountains 
from three to four thousand feet in height, 
and propably wo did not experience more 
than a tiiho of the summer heat. 
I proposed a hath for the sake of experi¬ 
ment, but F. endeavored to dissuade us.— 
He had tried it, and nothing could be more 
disagreeable; we risked getting a fever,and, 
besides, there were four hours of dangerous 
travel yet before us. But by this time we 
were half undressed, and were soon floating 
on the clear bituminous waves. The beach 
was fine gravel, and shelved gradually down. 
1 kept my turban on my head, and was care¬ 
ful to avoid touching the water with my face. 
Tho sea was moderately warm, and grace¬ 
fully soft and soothing to the skin. It was 
impossible to sink, and, even while swim¬ 
ming the body rose half out of the water.— 
I should think it possible to dive for a short 
distance, but prefer that some ono else 
would try that experiment. With a log of 
wood for a pillow, ono might sleep as on 
one of the patent matrosses. The taste of 
tho water is salty and pungent, and stings 
the tongue like saltpetre. We were obliged 
to dress in all haste, without even wiping 
off the detestable liquid, yet I experienced 
very little of that discomfort which most 
travelers have remarked. Where the skin 
had been previously bruised, there was a 
slight smarting sensation, and my body felt 
clammy and glutinous, but tho bath was 
rather refreshing than otherwise. 
Invective and personality prove nothing, 
on either side, but a lamentable want of 
good argument.
