LOVE,
LOVE, [From li The Beggar's Coin," a Poem, by J, R, Best, Esq,) THE loye of woman is a blessed thing, The heart of woman is a throne of power. Fond ana more fundly still, it loves to cling; And grows more fond where'er most dangers lower. Constant beyond this world's imagining Rich in all love-kind nature's bounteous dower: Our guardian angel-promise-guide in lifc- Our joy—hope—grace—pride—solace—home-star—Wife NAPOLEON. Among; the thousand-and-one compositions, in all languages, founded upon the sublime theme of the downfall and death of Napoleon, there are, we think, very few* which have surpassed in weight of thought, in splendour of diction, and in grandeur of versification, Pushkin's (Russia's greatest poet,) noble lyric ullon this subject The wondrous destiny is ended, The mighty light is quench'd and dead; In stonn. and darkness hath descended Napoleon's sun, so bright and dread. The captive King hath burst his prison- The petted child of victory And for the Exile hath arisen The dawning of Posterity. O thou, of whose immortal story Earth aye the memory shall keep, Now, 'neath the shadow of thy glory Hest, rest, amid the lonely deep A grave sublime nor nobler ever Couldst thou have found for o'er thine urn The Nations' hate is quenahed for ever, Anù Glory's beacon-ray shall bum, There was a time thine eagles tower'd 1> esistless o'er the humbled world There was a time the empires cower'd Before the bolt thy hand had hurl'd: The standards, thy proud wiII obeying, wrath and woe on every wind- A few short years, and thou wert laying Thine iron yoke on human kind. 01. AmI France, on glories vain and hollow, Had fixed her frenzy-glance of flame- Forgot sublimer hopes, to follow Thee, Conqueror, thee-her dazzling shame Thy legions' swords with blood were drunken- All sank before thine echoing tread; And Europe fell-for sleep was sunken, The sleep of death upon her head. » # Thou mightst have judged us, but thou wouldst not What dimm'd thy reason's piercing light, That Russian hearts thou understoodst not, IIrom thine heroic spirit's height 1 Moscow's immortal conflagration Foreseeing not, thou deem'dst that we Would kneel for peace, a conquer'd nation Thou knew'st the Rass .too late for thee Up, Russia, Queen of hundred battles, Uemember now thine ancient right! Blaze, Moscow !—Far shaÎ1 shine th; 1ighi! Lo other times are dawning o'er us Be blotted out, our short disgrace Swell, Russia, swell the battle chorus War Is the watchword of our race Lo how the haffied leader seizeth, W ith fetter'd hands, his Iron Crown- A dread abyss his spirit freezeth Duwn, down he goes, to ruin down AmI Europe's armaments are driven, Like mist, along the blood-stain'd snow- That snow shall melt 'neath summer's heaven, W ilh the last footstep of the foe, 'Twas a wild storm of fear and wonder, When Europe woke anù burst her chain; The accursed rare, like scatter'd thunder, After the tnant fled amain. And Nemesis a doom hath spoken, The 1Iighty hears that doom with dread: The wrongs thou hast done shall now be wroken, Tyrant, upon thy guilty head Thou shalt redeem thy usurpation, Thy Iong career of war and crime, In exile's heating desolation, Beneath a far and stranger clime. And oft the midnight sail shall wander By that lone isle, thy prison-place, And oft a stranger there shall ponder, And o'er that stone a pardon trace, Where mused the Exile, oft recalling The well-known clang of sword and lance, The yells, Night's icy ear appalling His own blue sJ,y-the sky of France W here, in his loneliness forgetting His broken sword, his ruin'd throne, With bitter grief, with vain regretting, On hi, fair noy he mused alone, But shame, and curses without number, r-pun that reptile head be laid, Whose insults now shall vex the slumber Of him-that sad discrowned shade No for his trump the signal sounded, Her glorious race when Russia ran; His hand. 'mid strife and battle, founded Eternal liberty for man Jlag4:cine.

Mr, Caudle, you ought tu haYc had a slave-yei;, a black slave, and not a wife. I'm sure, I'd lletter been born a negro at Ot1f'('-ml.h better. What's the matter, now? Well, 1 like that. Upon my life, Mr, Caudle, that's very cool. I can't leave the house just to buy a yard of riband, but you storm enough to carry the roof otTo You didn't storm?-you only "poke? Spoke, indeed! No, sir: I've not such superfine feel- ings; anel I don't cry out before I'm hurt. nut you ought to have married a woman of stone, for you feel for nobody: that is, fur nobody in your own house. I only wish you'd show sulne uf your humanity at home, if ever so all, \1::1,t do you say ? Where's my feelings, to go shopping at night 1 When wouid you have me go? In the broiling sun, making my face like a gipsy's ? I don't see anything to laugh Mr. Caudle; hut you think of anybody's face before your wifc"s, Oh, that's plain enough and all the world can see it, I ilare say, now, if it was Miss Prettnnan's face-now, now, Mr. C'auZ;¡, What are you throwing yourself about for? I suppose she's flesh anù blooù, What? You don't know 1 II,l I dare say. What, Mr. Caudle? You'll have a separate room? you'll not be tormented in tltis manner ? No, YOU won't, sir-not while I'm alive, A separate room! And" yOU call yourself a reli- gious man, Mr. Caudle ? I'ù advise you to take down the l'rayer Book, and rpad over the Marriage Service. A separate TOom, indeed Caudle, you're getting quite a heathen. A se- parate room! Well, the servants would talk then! nut no no man-not the best that ever trod, Caudle- shoulù ever make J;]" look so contemptible. I shan't go 10 sleep and you ought to know me better than tu ask me to hold my tongue. Because JOu come home when I'c just stepped out to ÙO a little shopping, you're worse than a fury. I should like to know how many hours I sit up for YOI\? What do you say? Nobod.1/ wants me to sit up ? lIa! Unit's like the gntitude of men-just like 'em! But a poor woman < an't leave the house, that-what? Why can't 1 go at reason- able hours ? I.easonahle! What do you call eight o'clock ? f I went out at eleven and twelve, as you come home, then you might talk; but seven or eight o'clock— why it's the cool of the • •vening the nicest time to enjoy a walk; and, as I say, do a ULc bit of shopping. Oh yes, Mr. Caudle'. I do think of the people who are kept in the shops just as much as you but that's nothing at all to do with it, I know what you'd have, You'd have all those young men let away early from "the Counter to improye what you please to call their minds. Pretty notions you pick up amGng a set of free-thinkers, and I don't know \Iat! When 1 was a girl people never talked of minds-intel- lect I believe you call it, Nonsense! a new-fangled thing,just cume UP; and the sooner it goes out, the better. Don't tell me! What are shops for, if they're not to be open Utc and early loo? And what are shopmen, if they're not always to attend upon their customers ? People pay for what they havc, I suppose and arn't to be told when they shall come "wi by their money out, anù when they shan't ? Thank good. ness if one shop shuts, another keeps open; and I always third" it a duty I owe to myself to go to the shop that's open hist; it's the only way to punish the shopkeepers that ar.. idle, and give themselves airs about early hours, Besides, there's some things Ilike to buy best at candle-light. 011, don't talk to me about humanity Humanity, indeed, for a pack of bll, strapping young fellows-some of 'em big enough t" be shown for giants! And what have they to do 1 Why nothing, but to stand behind a counter, and talk civility. Yes, I know yor.r notions you say that everybody works too much: I know that. You'd hare all the world do nothing half its time but twiddle its thumbs, or walk in the parks. or go to picture- galleries, and museums, and such nonsense. Very line, Indeed; but, thank goodness! the world isn't come to that pass yet, What J.<) you say 1 am, Mr. Caudle ? A foolith woman, that rm't [uoll beyond my own fire-,ide? 0 yes, I can; quite as far YOU, ami a great deal farther.

Oh, yes, we can-we can look LJut-i,le our own fenders, Mr. Caudle. Anù if we can't, it's all the better for our families. A blessed thing it would be for their ,ives anù children if men couldn't either. You wouldn't have lent that five pounds-and I dare 8ay a good many other five pounds that I know nothing of-if you -a lord of the creation! -d half the sense women have, You seldom catch us, I believe, lenùing five pounds, I should think not: No; we won't talk of 11 to-morrow mommg, ): ou re not sohv to wound my feelings when I come home, and think I'm to say nothing aùout it, You have called me an inhuman pers.}U; YOU have said I have no thought, no feellUg for the health and comfort of my fellow-creatures I <1on't know what you haven"t called me and only for buying I shan't tell 5 1,:1 what; no, 1 won't satisfy yOU there-but you ve abused me .n this manner, and only for shopping up to ten o'clock.

Keep herbaceous plants neatly tied up, in order to prevent them from being damaged hy wind. Remove aU suckers from standard Hoses as they appear likewise shor- ten back any over luxuriant shoots, and bud chotce kinds. Beds that haye been filled with early blooming annuals, &e" should be cleared o If, and replanted with other things. The plants raised from the first sowing of Brompton Stocks s,houhl be pricked out into borders and pots, plaeillg HIP latter 111 tlw shade for a few days, and then exposing thE'111 to the ,lI1fiuell,ce of the sun and air, Keep gravel walks well rulled during moist weather. Pits and Fmmes,-Cuttings of herbaceous plants should be put under hand-glasses, in shady situations. Shift and stop Chrysanthemums, applying manure water to t1wm occasionally. Shift Balsams and other tender annuals, shade during the heat of the day, and sprinkle with water in the after- noon. Lights and frames should now be repaned and painted, to be ready for use when mure particularly wanted. FLORISTS' FLOWERS.-The past showery weather has been highly beneficia,Lto all seedling flowers. The Auriculas, whic,h were recommexiald to be pricked out 111 pans, must not, how- ever, get too much of it. Worms are apt to draw the young plants out of thü ground; where this is the case, a dose of lime water will ùe found of service. Tulips ought now to be all out of ground, and carefully and graùually dried. Cover the capsiUvs Qf those wlUch have beta allowed to seed with a band- glass the wet lodging on the npex will often cause the destruc- tion of the seed-vessel, unless thus protected. /iauniicttltises will now require great earo to pravc.it th -7,1 m iluxg fresh growth; as the Grass withers the roots should be taken up, some varieties attaining maturity much earlier than others.

Prick out cuttings that have taken root, and in looking over beds of seedings, eradicate all that do not come up to the standard, as given n a previous Chronicle. HARDY FHrIT AND KITCIES GARDEN.—The late rains have been favourable for the prediction of Strawberry runners and as soon as a sufficient quantiy has struck root for the purposes of forcing and the formatim of new plantations, the further progress of the runners shiuld be stopped. Some good soil should be prepared for the reception uf the plants as they become sufficiently rooted fir bedding out. They will thus he strong for final planting out in autumn, and will bear well next season. Continue reducing the superabundant shoots of fruit trees. Those ot the Apple Plum, and Cherry-trees, having crumpled foliage from being nfested with aphis should be rather unsparingly shortened, and tie removed portions burned. After the trees have been gone ove, they should be syringed with gas liquor, mixed with 8 or 101arts of water.

John Lloyd, Esq., of Dinas, rose said, that he felt com- pelled to resign his seat at the Cunlloads gjard, and then proceeded at some length to give thaSons for his resigna- tion, stating that he understood, w be accepted the office, that the legislature had done all it t„[,t ri^ht to relieve the tiaveller when it obliged them to lr (be tolls and remove the gates to a distance of 2 miles fr<iach other further than it allowed by the law previously and in so doing had consulted more than was perhaps et¡¡ble, the benefit of the traveller at the expense of the Uoldcrs of this county, who would be obliged to make up ^ficiencies in the tolls; but the Board having yesterday coto a decision calculated to add still more to the county bur*, and to involve itself ultimately in great difficulties, hilt obliged to withdraw from taking a share in carrying Much measures.

THE SOUTH WALES RAILWAY.
THE SOUTH WALES RAILWAY. FnlDAY JULY 4TH.—As soon as the Committee RJ assenibted this morning, the room was ordered to 11 cleared, and after the Committee had remained some tim in deliberation, strangers were rc-admiited. Mr. E. Buller, the Chairman, announced that the Coir mittee were now prepared to proceed with the 21st ciausi and requested the promoters of the Bill to inform tll Committee what course they intended to adopt. Mr. Cockburn wished to understand whether it was th 21st or the 20th clause that was to be proceeded with. The Chairman said that it must he the -1st clause, a that contained the line of the railway. The 2Dth ciausi contained the power to make the railway according lo til deposited plans. He wished to know how the promoter of the Bill intended to act after the decision of the Stand ing Orders' Committee, and the non-consent of thi Admiral fy. Mr. Austin said that it was clear they could not proceei with the clause, which had been rejected by the Standing Orders' Committee yesterday. The course which lie in tended to propose to the Committee to adopt, if tbej thought fit, was the chiuse he held in his band, and whicl, he would presently read. He was quite aware that the proposed clause was precisely similar in effect to the 17tL clause of the public Act. Mr. Buller, M,P.-It is the Admiralty clause. Mr. Austin-Yes. That clause provided that it should not be lawful for any company to construct on the shore of the sea, or any estuary or navigable river, wherein the tide flows and reflows, any railway or bridge across any arm of the sea or navigable river, without the consent of the Board of Admiralty. That was to say, it should not be lawful for the company to coustruct any such bridge as had been proposed across the Severn without the permis- sion of her Majesty, assented to by two of the Lords of the Admiralty. The powers of the company to construct the bridge were limited by the operation of the 17th section in the General Act. W herever, therefore, Par- liament granted powers to construct a railway the 17tli section came between to restrict them. The Parliament enabled the Company to execute their works, subject to the supervision of the Admiralty and the Board of Trade. Parliament had, by its own act, incapacitated itself from granting suflicient powers for properly constructing the line for it can only grant powers subjected to the influence ot the 17th section of the Railway Act. It is proposed that tne Bill should not be passed as it now stands. He proposed to insert a clause which would have the effect of preventing the Company from crossing the Severn without the consent of the Admiralty being first obtained. The Learned Counsel then read the clause, which was to the effect that it should not be lawful for the Company to con- struct a bridge over the Severn without the consent of the Admiralty. "ar Cockburn observed that it wasptecisely the same as the lith section of the General Railway Act. Mr. Austin-His Learned Friend was right. He con- tended that the Company should have been able to make te railway just as it had been proposed with the provision e 'ad stated. Ihe effect of the proposed clause was, mutatis mutandis, similar to the proviso of the 17th section of the General Railway Act. The Legislature "ad frequently granted powers of this description, subject LO the veto of the Board of Admiralty, and had passed ieverat Bills containing clauses similar in effect. He would instance, as a precedent, the circumstances attend- ng the case of the Chester and Holyhead Railway. In I, at case there was a question, which of two modes pro- posed for crossing the Menai Straits was the better. Both dans were objected to on the part of the Admiialty, and it yas determined that a Bill should be granted for making a ine the whole way to the opposite shore of Holyhead; HIt it was provided there should be a break, that no Par- lamentary power should be given to pass the Menai Hrails. A supplementary Bill had, however, subse. ["' ntty received the roya) assent, and the break had been 11 1 tilled up. In the nrat instance, the Company had two brokeu lines of railway, which were sanctioned by Par- liament, in the expectation that the Company would at some future period obtain the consent of the Admiralty to the passage of the Menai Straits, and which expectation u was fully realised. It was a similar case with the project now before the Committee, and he admired the justice and propriety of the mode which the Legislature had adopted by this course, by not deferring the execution of works of great public importance for the period of an entire year. There was no doubt of an ulterior arrangement with the Admiralty—at least, the presumption was very strong that the Severn could be crossed. The only reason in Par- liament why, at present, the Severn could not be crossed was, that such a course would militate against the decisions 101 of the Standing Orders' Committee. In addition to the case of the Chester and Holyhead Railway, which he had mentioned, precedents existed in the Southampton and Dorchester, the Syston and Peterborough, and various other lines. It had been admitted that the preamble was true, and it now remained for the Committee to decide 11 whether the preamble of the Bill had been proved. The stale of facts was known to the House at the time the Bill "as referred to it. The Committee had confirmed the truth of the allegations contained in the preamble. It stated that it was intended to make a line of 187 miles in length, with branches to the extent of 211 miles, with an amount of opposition, more nominal than real, as the pro- portion of dissents on the line was only as I to 71 assents. The committee on a former occasion had stated, that they would not pass the preamble, in consequence of the oppo- sition of the Admiralty, as while that opposition was continued, the general 'working of the Bill would be crippled. That being the opinion of the Committee, they reported against the Bill in the House of Commons. The house, however, thought the scheme a desirable one, and referred it back to the Committee to proceed with the clauses of the Bill, in order that it might be reported. I lie allegations in the preamble are already announced to have been proved. The Committee had been called upon to state in what way the clauses could be reported so as to furnish the House, on the report being brought up, with full information as to the entire contents of the Bill. There was no doubt it was quite competent to the Com- mittee to pass the Bill as it now stood, and also to insert clauses in the Bill, for the purpose of reporting the Bill in a more perfect state than at present. The only question remaining was, how could the Committee report the mat- ter appropriately to the House? The Committee could doubtless, if they approved of the proposed clauses, report the Bill with them, and they were perfectly at liberty to consider any new clause that would enable them to arrive at some satisfactory conclusion; and there was no difficulty in the proposed clause that could not easily be surmounted. The Committee having deliberated some time, The Chairman said the Committee was not prepared either to adopt the proposed clause, or to accede to the request to leave the matter in the hands of the Admiralty. The course which was still open to the promoters of the Bill was to obtain the larger portion of their line. The Bill would give them power to make their line from Pem- broke aniil ishguard to the water side of the Severn, by ■ carrying it over the bridge at the Auxt Passage, or by taking it through Hock Crib, or by bringing it round by Gloucester, as it might he afterwards found most expedient. If the promoters of the bill acceded to these terms they were at liberty lo proceed; at the same time the Committee were willing to listen to any statement that might be urged in opposition. Alter some discussion, Mr. Austin said he would propose an alteration in the preamble which would enable the Company to pass the river by the Aust passage, or by the Hock Crib or by an application, in a future session of Parliament, to carry their line into Gloucester or to any place that might here- after appear desirable. General Johnson observed that it would be open to the Company to proceed during a future session. Mr. Austin —Yes, only we wish to carry out our plan if possible during the present session. The preamble might be amended so as to give us power to make a rail- way from Brimspill to Aure. We wish to obtain a communication with the Forest of Dean Railway at the same time that we have a connexion between London and the south of Irelanll. The Chairman said the proposal was consistent with the meaning of the Committee. There was, however, one part of the resolution of the Committee which militated in some measure against the proposal, for by carrying the line up to Aure it would be carrying it out of the sphere of the line laid down. The piint was then discusspd at considerable length, and was eventually decided by the Chairman saying the Committee were of opinion that it would not be consistent with their previous decision to allow the railway to be carried further than Chepstow. The preamble Was then altered, the words" with a branch to join the Forest of Dean Railway," having been struck out. Mr. Cockburn, on behalf of various landowners, ob- jected to the preamble being passed, on the ground that the line uot only occupied the country through which it immediately proceeded, but virtually the eutire of the remaining portion. The promoters of the Bill ought to be satisfied with a line as far as Chepstow, and they ought not to have any other. By their present scheme they were precluded from crossing the Severn, and if some other project should come before Parliament prepared with a Bill to go over the Severn in a manner that should be satisfactory to the Admiralty, they would be told by the South Wales Railway Company that they had no right to Hppear before Parliament, as they the (South Wales Com- pany) were already in possession of the ground. The Committee had giveTT them an inchoate right to prevent other projects from being brought forward in a future session, and on this ground he objected to the passing of the preamble. The room was then ordered to be cleared. On our re- admission, The Chairman said the Committee had agreed that the following amendment should be inserted in the preamble -namely, that the making of a railway from Fishguard and Pembroke to Chepstow, with a branch to Monmouth, would be of great public advantage. The preamble, as amended, was then agreed to and passed. The clauses of the Bill were then proceeded with, and were all acceded to without opposition. The Bill was ordered to be reported. At the close of the proceedings the Chairman asked whether the prOUloter., of the Monmouth and Hereford Railway would be ready to proceed with their project to morrow morning. The consideration of that scheme would involve the same difficulties as had accrued in the South Wales Railway, as to the crossing of the Severn. And he would put to the promoters, whether, at the present advanced period of the session, it was advisable to proceed with the schemer Would it not be better to defer it until the next session 1 Mr. Cripps, who appeared on behalf of the Monmouth and Hereford Company, said the question required some consideration; but, at all events, he should be prepar to state to-morrow morning what course he intend to adopt. le The COillmiltee thfn adjourned till to-morrow. e I- MONMOUTH AND HEREFORD RAILWAY. -» SATURDAY, JULY 5TH.—The Committee re-assemblt e at the usual hour this morning, antI immediately pr ceedetl to the consideration of the above sclietile. 6 I • opened the case for the promoters I o iserving that. l!e proposed to submit to the Committee R S unopposed Bill, and lie hoped there would be no difficult B in the matter.

Ihe line would terminate at the parish o aisdon, so that the junction with the shorter railway could be easily effected. The original length of the line had been laid down at 4j miles, it had, however, been subsequently reduced to 3i miles. It was proposed, how- ever to retain the original capital iu the Bill of £ .").")0,0()G. Ihe Board of Trade had reported favourably of the line, and had stated that it was well calculated to afford o-eneral accommodation to the districts which it traversed, and would be of great service to the Forest of Dean, by opening up the mineral fields there. It was proposed by this branch to furnish Hereford with a proper supply of coals. 1 he present price of coals at the pit's mouth was Gs. 6(!. per ton, and the expense of carriage by the Wye was 9s., and, it carried by land the amount was 13s. The railway would convey the coal for 3s. per ton, so that the coal which was now sold in Herelerd at 21s. per ton would, if the railway were constructed, be sold at the moderate price of lis. per ton. He would also remark that in Hereford, which was a kind of Arcadia, nothing was so much desired as a facile communication with neigh- bouriug counties for the disposal of its agricultural and orchard produce, the trade in which was now almost in abeyance in consequence of the great expense and delay in transmission. Cyder was at present a complete drug in the market, and was sold at a mere nominal price, averaging from 4d. to Gd. per gallon, a price which was not nearly sufficient to remunerate the producer. It was also to be hoped that before long Herefordshire would possess a legitimate market for the sale, of its hops. It was a notorious fact that nine-tenths of the hops sold at Worcester were originally brought from Herefordshire. The construction of the proposed line would tend in every way to promote the interests of Hereford and Monmouth, and the intermediate and adjacent places. He would not enter into any exposition of the engineering details, as he intended very shortly to call Mr.°BruneI, the engineer, who would explain tothe Committee the course of the line. He would now proceed with the examination of witnesses, and as the Bill was unopposed, he trusted the Committee would be in a condition to pass the preamble of the liue without any difficulty. In reply to a question from Mr. Cripps, Mr. Talbot said it was his intention to have the line carried from Westbury, via Gloucester, to the north bank of the Severn. Mr. Anthony, who was the first witness called, stated that a proper supply of coals would be a very important point. coals were principally supplied from the forest of Dean, and were generally brought by the Wye. Very little was exported in consequence of the difficulty attending its transmission. The witness also spoke as to the traffic in copse-wood for charcoal, hops, and cyder, which latter article was sold at 2^d. per gallon, and deposed generally as to the benefits which would be derived to the county it tlle |jne were constructed. ilr. S. Powell, of Old Forge, said he had been engaged in trade ad his life, and was well acquainted with the na- vigation of the Wye, !\ud also possessed a complete -now eige of the trade in t|ie counties of Monmouth and Hereford. The commerce was principally conveyed by water. Great quantities of bark aud copse-wood were pro- duced in Herefordshire. The wood when converted into charcoal would be transmitted by the railway into Stattordslnre, lor the use of the iron trade. I l!Urrna?'. 'l' close of the examination of the as wi ness, sai it was not necessary to examine any more witnesses as to the generfll fuce of the jistrictJs which the line traversed.
