POETRY. T8»e Prayer of <2bc Betrothed. A lady jn the St. Louis Union , over the signature of Jn ez, portrays her thoug hts ir. the following most beau- tifu l verses , on the eve ol her marriage :— Father , I conic before Thy throne , With low anJ bended knee. To thank Thee, with a gratefu l tone, For all Th y love to me. forg ive Rio. if niv iieart this hour , I gi>-c not all io Tlicc , For deep affection 's miihty power J)ivi. ;e-> it now with TLcc. Thou kr.o wtot , Father , every thoug ht That wakes within iriv breast , And how this heart has vainl y sought To keep it-, love surpressed. Yet when the idol , worshi pped one , Sits fondl y by my side , And breathes the vows I eannot slum. To me. his destined bride— .Forgive me, if the loving kiss. He leaves upon my brow Is thought of in an hour like this , And thrills me even now. He's chosen me to be his love And comfort or throug h life ; Enable me, oh God. to " prove A loving, faithfu l wife. He knows not , Father , all the dee p Affections I control— The thousand loving thoug hts that sweep Resistless o'er my soul. tie knows not each 'deep fount of love That gushes warm and free ; Nor eau he ever , ever prove My warm idolatry. Then guard him , Father—ground his way The choicest blessings cast , A nd render each successive day Still happ ier than the last. And , Father , grant us so to Iivo , That when this life is o'er Within the happy home you give, We meet to part no more , CAPE COD BRANCH RAILROAD. ¦^y~~r . -:;¦, ¦ ,- —-aa~p~p™ B —ip" * ~ f —FTl'—rr~ ji .-j;_¦ _»-^.=j ¦ *^^£«*ik*^\f JJ aUMMEH ARRAXGE1 1EN ' F^ Cars from Boston leave the Depot o f the Old Colony liuil Road.

Masters and Builders of Ships, W E bog to call your attention to a new article for Shi p's fastening, which we beli eve to be greatl y superior to any material now used for that purpose— YELLOW METAL BOLTS. _ Although new in this market , they have been in ac- tive use in all the English Shi p Yard's and Docks for a long period of time. The manufacturers , whose agents we are were in- I d uced to mak e a small quantity last Spri ng, by the de- sir e of several shi p-builders here to obtain " ;!sample of them for their own use. The builders who have tried the m , arc so entirel y satisfied with their character and worth , that the manufacturers have resolved upon mak- ing them in large quantities and offering them for sale Being firmer than the Copper Bolts,'they bear much ' harder drivin g; and their composition prevents the formation of the verdi gris so much comp lained of as natural to Copper. Their resistance to corrosion caus- es the m to wea r more uniforml y and longer than Cop-- ' per Bolts, and they musthave the preference over them Their present price is about twenty per cent, "less than Copper. ' , l We are now prepared to receive orders for all sizes and kinds used in shi p building, and can furnish an ar- ticle as perfect as can be made.

WORKS, FOR SAUE. rjnilE owners of the Manomet Iron Co. propose to JL sell their property in North Sandwich , at a valu- tion to be ma.de by disinterested jud ges , mutuall y agreed upon , to a Company who will raise $100,000 capital to carry on the busin ess , and the present pro- prietors will take of the now stock 25 to $30,000. The Water Power is derived from a pond 9 miles in circumference , with a never failing supply in the dry- est seasons , and the water over "the surface can be raised throe feet. The upper privile ge has a fall of 12 1-2 feet , and can at a small ex pen se be raised 7 feet, and the works there are , a Stave Saw Mill. Grist Mill , Planing M ill , with suitable buildin gs , with one Water Wheel 18 and one 16 feet—and as a small part of the water is used , a largo increase of machinery can be added. The lower privile ge has a fall of 12 1-2 feet. The works thereon consist of an Iron Foundry, two Ma- chi ne Shops with two 18 feet Water Wheels , a Car Shop, a Brass Foundry, Blacksmilh Shop, Pattern Store House, Pattern Shop, Carpenter 's Shop, a Steam Hammer and Forge Ilousej a large double roof Build- ing 80 by 60 fe et, suitable for tw o Steam Hamm ers and fo ur Furnaces, and now has one of Kirk' s Patent Steam Hammers , with one Furnace and Boiler all read y for operation , having all the necessary tools in- cludi ng Fan Blower , which can be made to turn out ten tons of Blooms per day, with the addition of one Furnace ivithouf Boiler. There are also on the prem- ises one large Boardin g House , suitabl e of accommo- datin g 40 boarders , and six Dwelling Houses, the whole embracing about six acres of Land—the build- in gs are mostl y new and in good order, having been erected four years since. Its location is most favorable to carry on the manu- j factory of Iron or any other business. The rail road passes within a few rods of the works , with a depot and turnouts affording great faciliti es for loading and unloading frei ght—the transportation to New York not exceeding SI 50 per ton , being connected by the Cape Cod Rail Road with the tide water at Buzzard' s Bay, and with Boston , Providence , New Bedford , Fall River. &c. Nails and heavy freight can be delivered in Boston by packet at 1 12 1-2 per ton. The establishment is well furnished with all the need- fuHools of modern make, suitable for carrying on the Machinery and Foundry business, and has " now a good j fun of business , and gives emp loyment for 50 or 60 hands. It is estimated that not more than one half the wa- ter power is now used, and the manufacture of Nails could easil y be added to the present business. For particulars , app ly to U. K.

D., takes this opportunity to • notif y the public that he has a safe and speeds cure for CANCERS without the aid of a Snrgieal Op. oration. The most distressing of all diseases the hn- man famil y is subject to. It is one of the most pain- ful maladies known to the human race. Its origin or canse remains a mystery to the Medical profession of every nation. Some however , have united in ascribing its origin in no small degree to mechanical derange- ments of the bod y, thereby producing a morbid condi- tion of the system. The minds of patients thus afflict, ed become very much taxed by a continual concentra- tion of thought in reference to their condition , they are cut off from most of the happiness and enjoyments of life ; they become alive to the slightest stimulent , and the mind contemplates in its various relations , everv shadow of sadness and every color of imagination/rom highly intellectual to the basest of hallucinations.— There is little or no pain in the treatment, and Cancers treated by me never troubl e the patient again. N. B. The cure is warranted or no charge for med- icine. C. L. SPENCER , M. I). Office 62 Purchase street , New Bedford. July 2 BY GRANT TIIORBURW. In 1793, when Louis XVF. was beheaded ,and the French revolution was in full blastjwas a thoroug h radical. ^ With seventeen more of our club, I was marohed , under a gua rd of the King 's officers , and lodged in Edinburg jail. After a summary hearing, I got liberty to banish myself , and accord ing ly took passage in the good shi p Providence , and landed at New York in June , 1794. I was then in my 22d year. When tlto ship cast oil' from the wharf , in Scotland and swung round with the breeze , my father stood upon the shore. He waved his last ndieu , and exclaimed , 'Remembe r the Sabbath day.' J arrived at New York on Saturday, and , the next day being the Sabbath , at nine o'clock , A. M., three J'oung men of our company callwl at my lodings. ?Where are you going today ?' they inquired , •To the church ,' I replied. 'We have been ton weeks at sea ; our health re- quires exercise, hot us walk out today, and go to church next Sabbath ,' they replied. Said I, 'you can go where you please , but I'll go to church ; the last words I heard from my father were, "Remember the Sabbath day ;" and , had J no respect for the Fourth Commandment , I have not yet forgotten his last advice.' They went to the fields ; I went to the church ; they spent forty or fifty cents in the tavern , I put a one penny bill in the plate at the morning.afternoon and ni ght service; total threepence. They contin- ued going into the country, and in process of time the landlad y's daug hter , and the landlad y 's neice, would j oin their company. Then each coup le hired a gig, at two dollars a day ; win« , cake and ice cream on the road , fifly cents each , dine at Jamaica , one dollar each. They got home at eight o'clock, P. M- , half drunk , and having bi?en cati« ht in a tlionder shower , the ir coats , hats and mantles , were damaged fifty per cent. Tli»-y rose the next morn- ing at nine o'clock, with sore heads , sore hearts , mudd y boots and an angry conscience , besides $12 li ghter than when they started. I went to church , rose at five*o'clock, A. M-, hea d sound , heart li ght , bones refreshed , conscience quiet , and commenced the labors of the week in peace and plenty. They were all mechanics ; some of them could cam $12 a week, My business , that of a wrought nail-maker , was poor ; the cut-nail machines had just got inlo operation , which cut down my wa«ea to a shavin g With close app lication , I could onl y ear n five dol- lars imd fllty cents per wesk. Never mind , at the en d of the year, my Sabbath-riding shi p-males had fine coats, fine hats, powdered heads and ruffled shirts j but I had one hundred hard dollars pilod in the corner of my chest , Nearl y forl y winters are past , and forty summers ende d, since the last was laid in the Potter 's, or some oi lier field ; while I. having received from my Maker a good constit ution , (and common sense to take care of it ,) I'm as sound jn mind , body and spir it, as I was on this day fifty- six years ago, when (irst I set my foot on shore at Governor 's wharf , New York , Besides, it's a fact , (for which my fami ly can vouch ,) I have been onl y one day confined to the house by sickness, during all that period. Now, Mr. Printer , I dare say you think , with me, tha t the church on the Sabbath ia better than the tavern , the fields , or sailing for the laboring man. [Home Journal , The Church and Tavern.
