V v ' W —- -i-- - W riiten'fjr the Plaindealh. 'Midttig’iit MusingS. “ The §t«rthat bids the shepherd fold^ Now the top of heaveo doth hold, And the gilded car of day His glowing axle doth allay 4h;the sWpX^lantie stream * And the slope sun his upward beam Shoots against th^dusky pole. Pacing toward the other goa\ O f his chamber in the east.’> ’Tis midaiglit.. All Is stillness. 3!^^ot a sound can be h'3ard, save ever and an-oii the bark of the distant honsfirdog. The last trembling tpnes city clock have just died a'jra.y, tolling-as it were the of the hour, and reminding us that an other link hss been broken from the «halu that binds us to earth. Yes | it iasgone with its joys and its sor rows, its hopes and its fears;—tlie fruit of that day gone will be reap ed hereafter, according as the seed ha^ been sown-r-either good or evil. .\Where now are the busy mnlti- stiides that thronged the thoro^gh- fares during the day 1 Sunk in balmy sleep—ruatiire’s sweet restorer ^—-from prattling infancy to grey and venerable age. The tired la borer and the weary husbandman are how enjoyingthat rest for which the great so often sigh in vain. Ifow crime stalks abroad in his varied garb. The assassia creeps stealthily under cover of the shadow of ^ome high wall, to be in readi- ijess to strike the unsuspecting vic tim the fatal blow. The burglar now wends his way to some well frlled store, or rich dwelling : and as .hig hand is reached forth to apply li.is jimmy,” memories of his iii- jioeent boyhood days., of his native hills and vallies, of the cot around which he was wont to gambol with liis brothers and sisters, of his kind ^nd tender father, of his gentle and forgiving mother, may perchance rush unbidden through his brain.— .But they deter him not; the emo- fions which they raise are of short duration—he is too far steeped in 43rime to return to the path of duty. The debauchee now resumes his noc turnal revels. Loud mirth and bois terous jollity resounds from the dens of wickedness. Glance in from whence these sounds issue, and there oan be seen the votaries of vice of fering at her shrine their health, their wealth and their eternal wel-' fare. It is enough to make the stars ! as,they look down from their high and pure places in the heavens,weep tears of pity for frail and erring man. I turn from these thoughts to others not much more cheerful.. Did you ever ask yourself, kind reader, (if reader this will ever have,) where the homeless^ houseless, and friend less make their bed ? If you did not, just follow me (in imagination) and I will show you. Yonder in the market place you see^ them stretched on boards. There on this stand by the wayside you see them coiled. There on tb ose marble steps, on the very threshold of the rfch man’s door, you see them lay, court ing the meagre shelter which the portico affords. But enough; hard is the fate of the homeless in a great city. The student trims the midnight lamp as he bends over the living page, and reads of ancient Greece, and Borne, their sages, philosophers, generals and Statesmen. Of the fall and rise of Empires, and the tri umph of Christianity over Idolatry and Superstition. He is then led to consider the mutability of all earthly things, and to fix his hopes on some thing higher and mere lasting. Albany, JDec. 1853. p, jj. c.

BuEujiAEiEs.—The Hall of Phar macy, in the village of Jamaica, we leam by th@ papers of that village, (occupied by Bolton and Brenton, Druggists and J. S. Seabnrj, man ufacturer of patent medicines, xfec.,) was forcibly entered on the night of the 10th inst, and robbed ofmonev and valuables to the amount of about $ 60 . A family of nine persons parsed through Dayton, Ohio, last week on their way to Iowa, on a freight train as freight. At Belle- fonte they were put upon the scales and weighed like dead shoates, and a regular bill of lading was made out for them at 16 cents a hundred, af ter F^hich they w e re stowed aw a y in a f lig h t carj and locked up, like so ; many bales of merchandise, or so many tubs of grease. tiN c n u T om ’ s C abin .- -In the IJnit- fid. States Circuit Court at Philadel phia, in the case of Harriet Beecher Stowe against P, W. Thomas, the German publisher in Philadelphia, who was charged with an infringe ment,of plaintiff^s copyright of “ Dpolg Tom’# Oahin,” by publish ing a German translation of that wbfkvJ’udge Grier decided that such translation w m .npt indnfrmgemejit 4>f the plaintiff copy right. In the course of a few days our State Legislature will assemble ; and, so far as We can judge, the mogt pressing, if not the most important question, will be that which heads this article. It will be press ing, because thousands of our citizens have pledged themselves to urge the matter with all the moral force they can command; and money too stands ready to act to the most advantage—that is a powerful in- fiuence of itself. Many of our Legisla tors stand pledged hand and footr—were elected solely on the ground that they were Maine Law men, and would vote for it. There is not much room for doubt as to its passing. We firmly believe ilb will pass this session. And we m ost earnestly, hope it will; if for no other reason than this; We are just as positive the law cannot ho and kept, in force in this S ta t^ as we are posi tive we now write—for seval reasons : 1st. In the cities of New York, Albany, Oswego and Buff^o, it will be utterly impossible to enforce the law, even at the point of the bayonet.- “ Why we fancy some one to say, (and it’s no more than right the why’s and wherefore’s should be given,) because persons who “ follow the water,” and old topers of all classes'will have liquor, and as long as money is plenty with them, liquor can and will be bought in spite of the teeth of all the temp^irance men in the State. We will admit that inland cities and towns may enforce the law to a certain extent; but if it is not wholly enforced it becomes a dead letter; and a portion of the people of the state will .suffer for a crime the other portion may commit with impunity, and go scot free in the face of the law. That is in justice. And we do* think it would be difficult to enforce the law even in this village. One neighbor would be continu ally arrayed against the other. Jury’s we fear would disagree, which, together with partial Justices, would make the law a complete farce. 2nd. The law has been passed in other States, and attempts have been made to enforce it—fruitless attempts in almost all cases. Maine was the first to adopt it, and will be the last to enforce it. The people of several other States, Bhode Island, Massachusets and Michigan voted it a law. In llhode Island it has been repealed, in Hassaebussets it is not put in force, unless we except one single case that we ^ave heard oi In .Boston; and in Michigan it has been de.clared by the highest tribunals, unconstitutional. to the latter we are not prepared to s a y » but should suppose it no more uneonstitu^- tional than the recent “ dog-law.” Will not all this nbn-enforeetaent of the law in other States tend to weaken the strong cords of the law in this ? It is not our intention, nor wish, to throw cold water on the temperance ques tion. We wish with all our heart there was not a drop drank in the world, for we have tasted its fruits aiiJ felt its effects^ if not practically, otherwise—to our heart’s content. But we know the labor is ip vain-—«the efforts now making te secure the Main Law are misdirected, and those who advocate it with dlL their eiieirgies are misdirected—are simply the t'dols of designing men, office-seekers and dema- gog^ues, who cry “ mad dog”' at liquor sellers, when they them.selves are , the Simon pare ‘^.-mad’ dogs,” and dangerous ’ ones, too. • Enforce our present laws, Kdep tfii up to the letter, and if they are. hot stringent enough to suit the times, make* them a little more binding., ^ Then, J f 'alj' fails, wCf with .thousands wijl Agree ■'’that, a still •more-.'' 8 tringent law shall be: ■made and enforded: But until the pr^psentlaws are properly and cloSeJy applied; we think the popular will of the* people aVer' '' anything more stringent. Yet we hope the, law will pass.’ An opportunity can then be had to tesfc^itk workings.

The ’inventor is .one M. Alexandre, of ffussia, and i a description of the instrument is as follows: •“ M* xAlexaudre’s invention is not merely a piano; there are three finger boards, super- poised one on the other, and which give to the player power of combining all the effects of a full orchestra, two of the finger boards are pianos, the other calls into ex istence flutes, claiionettes, hautboys, vio loncellos, human voices—everything, an organ, wind instruments, eord instruments.

OCr The December number of the Kniojferbpcjccr Magazine, contains, be sides the satirielp story of ‘ John Biggs,’ many little gems which are well worthy of being sought out. Among a variety of anecdotes related in its pages, we find one too good to be lost,” which we give below. It has a moral, find it if you can!— “ We like to see a man, no matter what business he may be engaged in, have a re spect , for it. It elevates labor and ennobles trade.’ The other day in the neighborhood of -the parkj w e encountered a tall, dignified-look ing man. in a long, seedy frock-coat, buttoned .to the chin, with a very glossy old silk hat, presiding at an apple-stand. Somehow or other his manner, his ‘ style.’ struck us. ‘ What i.s the price of these apples V we asked, pointing; to a small pile of tempting red ones. ' We shall have to charge you two cents for those,’ he said : ‘ they are a very superior article but there is an apple’ he added, ‘ of very good quality, that we can put to you at a cent!’ Shade of commerce ! He ’ commerce ! Jtle couldn’t have said more, nor in a more pretentious manner if he had been offering the rarest goods inStewart’« He was very far from bein ) you at a cent!’ ;ouldn’t have said e.pi what Mr mentis P ’ Partington terms ‘ non pompous By the wiiy, the satiricio story spoken of above, entitled ‘ John Bigg.s,’ is'written by John T. Irving, Esq., of Dosoris, and the plot of the story is laid within “ Glen Gove Patent,”—which makes it doubly interesting. Mr. Irving wields a ready and pointed pen; his latest work, ‘ Harry Harson,’ has added another feather to his before full-plumed cap. OO” Well a we gui ho Turkey on Thanksgiving Day, certainly got some- thing else. The Woodhaven Advertiser copied our Turkey paragraph, and append ed the following, v\hich we think a “ sight’’ more of than—than—well, we won’t say what! “ We hope that our brother did liot have to make his TLhanksgiving dinner off his tailor’s goose. That bird would haven been rather hard to pick. ‘‘ Had we presumed that the PlaindcalePs patrons were so despicably mean as to leave their Editor tiirkeyless, even on the eve of Thanksgiving Day, we should have dispatch ed one of our corn-fed gobblers to bis sanctum.

Not a few, we hope, — On Saturday evening we stepped.in to Mrs. Wilcockson’s establisment, to see what wo could see, and we were not a little amused at the sayings and doings of the congregation of little ones there as sembled—regular shoppers—to purchase with the pennies and shillings father or mother—most likely, mother— had en trusted them with, little .toys and knick- knacks,” for little buby or little sisee. “ Like children in a toy-shop,”—and so were they. This soldier in minature,— mounted on horse-back, armed and equip- ed,” was thrown aside for that false-face, or India-rubber man. This gaudily dress ed doll for that pewter tea-set, '‘and so on through the whole catalogue of “ things .that amuse children.” No one could feel surprised to witness the venal vaciliation; for no doubt the pennies and shillings Were limited, and the fear of “ laying out” their little stores injudiciously, caused many a thought to arise in their minds. One little girl in particular attracted our attention. After choosing a dozen toys, and counting her money as many times, she exclaimed to her companion, “ well, I don’t know what to get. There arc S 0 many pretty things that sisee would like, and I havn’t got money enough to buy them all—what shall I do ?” and she put so much empha sis, upon the “ shall,” as if the life of ti e little one she was “ shopping ” for depend ed upon the extent of her capital and the trinkets she bought. Little sisee, quietly sleeping in her warm, snug crib, at home, and the money she held in her hand, was in her mind,—filled it full. All the toys in Mrs. W.’s store would scarcely have, sufficed her, if—what a troublesome little word that if is—her money could have purchased them to plekse little sis.” A fellow who.se name we did not learn, stopped at Charlick’s Hotel, Bdslyn, on Tuesday night of last week, and on getting up the next (Wednesday) morn ing, robbed a lady who re^i'Es there of q This being the case, and a Branuh ffoad from Cold Spring, there SwHl be Ro <i%ce for a ’^Uroa4 thfough north sidit of the I|land for «iatiyj yeafS to coMel ■ i[||r presejit population |»refe^lng (to f travel by would not receive a sufficient support to enable it be in operation more than four months in the year, for the reagop that the Cold Spring Branch would take nearly all the eastern travel from this place, w hilp the Steamboats would certainly take all^he travel ftoni Ibis jplace westward. who is a mail of the world and a philanthro pist, and moreovbr, the editor b f a ’daily paper, has been led, both by his feelings -and ayoca-~-= tions, to. explore parts of the\city7 aad becoffi>.
