EVENING STAR, LIFE. BY RICHARD H. WILDE. My life is like the summer rose ‘hat to the morni: And ere the shades of even! " Is scattered on the id to die, As if she wept such waste to see. But none will shed a tear for me. My life is like an autumn leaf, trembles in the moon’s Its hold is frail, its date is brief, Yet when tbat leat ali fall and wl that ‘The parent stem will mourn its shade, ‘The winds bemoan the leafless tree, But none wil! breathe 2 sigh for me. 1i’e is Like the prints which feet a left on Tempe’s desert strand, Soon as the rising tide shail beat, Each trace vanish from the sand ; Yot, if as grieving to efface Al of the human race, On that lone shore loud moans the sea, But none will thus lament for me. ray, Ey" A despatch received from Erie says thats mob destroyed on Saturday the Consti- tutional office in that city, in consequence of that paper advocating the Railroad interests, and that they threatened to damage the prop- erty of the Railroad Company. tar The U.S. stloop-of-war Portsmouth, Captain Foote, dropped down from the Gosport Navy Yard on Saturday, to the anchorage off the Naval Hospital. She is bound for the East Indies by way of the Cape of Good Hope and will sail ina few days The Portsmouth will make the cruise without the usual prac- tice of giving rations of ardent spirits to the erew, who have siguified their willingness to dispense with its use. Macaime ror Peaaine Boots ap Sxors.— A new machine for this pu has been brought forward. The boot is placed on one part of the machine, and # stick of wood on another; motion being given, one portion of the mechanism operates to prick the holes with an awl, another to make the pegs, an- other to feed the pegs to the mouth of the holes, and another to drive the , pene home. These various operations are performed with great rapidity, about two minutes only being auked double peg each boot. MOVEMENTS OF OCEAN STEAMERS.
