PERILOUS RUN-OFF.

Quite an excitement in the neighborhood of
the Bridge on Buffalo Street, was created on
Monday afternoon, by the running off of a
horse—a buggy being attached, and a boy dri-
ving. The animal took fright, running off
Buffalo Street into an alley in the rear of the
machine mills adjoining the bridge, turaing in-
to asmall alley which leads into the river,
plunging full force into the water, when horse,
buggy, and boy were washed by the threaten-
ing current of the dashing Genesee down the
stream. Having presence of mind, the boy
caught the picr or bas: of the butinent as he |
passed, and holding on, was thus snatched
from a watery grave.

TO THE NORTH STAR.

Brak of the North! night winds drift
The fleecy drapery of the sky,
— thy lamp and me, I lift,
ea, lift with eve
To the tier hei aie while ton bein
And of the land of freedom tell’st.

Star of the North! while blazing do
Ponre roand me its full tide of light,
An: bicdes thy pale bat faithful ray,
I, too, lie hid, and tong for night ;—
For night: I dare not walk at noon,
Nor dare I trust the faithless moon,—

Nor faithless man, whose burning lust
For goki hath rivetted my chain ;
No other leader can I trast,
But thee, of ev'’a the starry train ;
Por, ali the host around thee burning,
Like faithless man, keep turning, turning.

en en etapa

I may not follow where they go:

Star of the north, I look to thee,
While oa I press; for well I hnow

Thy light and truth shall set me free; —
Thy hght, that no poor slave deceiveth ;
Thy truth, tleat all my soul believeth.

They of the East beheld the star

That over Bethlehem’s manger glowed ;
With joy they hailed it from afar,

And followed where it marked the road,
Tiil, where its rays directly fell,
Tiey found the hope of Lsrael.

Wise were the men who followed thus
The Star that sets men free from sin.
Star of the North! thou art to us,
Who’re slaves because we wear a skin
Dark ax is night's protecting wing,—
Thou art to us a holy thing. ;

Ani we are wive to follow thee.
I trust thy steady light alone,
Star of the North’ thou scem’st to me
To burn before the Almighty’s throne,
To guide me, through these forests dim
And vast, to Liberty and Him,

Thy beam is oh the glassy breast

Of the still spring, upon whose brink
I lry my weary limbs to rest,

And bow my parching limbs to drink.
Guide of the friendless, negro’s way,
I bless thee for this quiet ray.

In the dark top of southern pines
J nestled when the driver's horn
Called to the field, in lengthening lines,
My fellows, at the break of morn,
And there T Jay ull thy sweet face
Looked in upon my hiding place.

The tanzled cane-brake, where I crept
For shelter from the heat of noon,
#® And where, while others toiled, I slept,
Till wakened by the rising moon,—
As its stalks teh the night wind free,
Gave me to catch a glimpse of thee.

Star of the North! in bright array

The constellations round, thee sweep,
Each holding on its nightly way,

Rising or sinking in the Heep,
And, as it hangs in mid-heaven flaming,
The homage of some nation claiming.

Tlus nation to the Eagle * cowers;
Fit ensign!—she’s a bird of spoil:
Like worships like; for each devours
The earniags of another’s toil
I’ve tele her talons and her beak,
And now the gentler Lion seek.

The Lion, at the Virgin’s feet,

Crouches, and lays his mighty paw
Into her lap;—an emblem meet

Of Eagland’s queen and English lw ;—
Queen, Uiat hath made her islands free ;
Law, taat holds owt its shield to me.

Star of the North! upon that shield
Thou shinest. ° O forever shine!
The negro, from the cotton-field,
Shall then beneath its orb recline,
And teed the Lion couched before it,
Nor heed the Eagle screaming oer it.—Pierpont. |

Rochester, November, 1847.

TO NIAGARA,

To-day I stand a pilgrim on thy verge,

Ol1 Niazara! and my willing ear

Drinks im the deep bass of thy wondrous voiee—
* The yoice of many waters’?! On they come,
From Erie's greener depths, and bright St. Clair,
Aud Huron fathomless, and far off Michigan;
And chaste Superior hoardeth not his wealth,
But sends his affluence to thy giant tide.

On, on they come, commingling as they run,

And, leaping in their joyauce, in one mighty food,
Pour their libation from thy trembling verge.

Earth's joyous angel, Beanty, hovers round,
And phimes her wing amid thy snowy cloud;
And when yon glorious orb is slanting e’er
"Thy battlements his beams, her mystic hand
Shapes from the elements a child of light;
Thy clout of incense its baptismal font,
And cradle of ler offspring newly born.

Now as I gaze, Tine’s solemn centuries,
Tloar spirits of the past, call from their hollow tomb,
Norjtell us when thon wert not. When Horeb’s rock,

‘Touched by the feeble wand of Israel’s leader, gave |

Its fountains for her lips, e’en then thy thunder tones,

Vibrating along these clifls, shook earth and air.

When bearded time was in his infaney,

He played amid thy fuam. When Memunons marble
gave

Its first weird music to the morning beam,

A kindred shaft fell on thy pillared mist,

Aud Iris lingered round these rocks, and smiled.

Sublimity is thee; thou art sublimity ;

And the great seal of Deity is fixed”

Forever on thy brow! °Tis no idolatry

To stand a mute-lipped worshipper at thy shrine,—
‘To fee! our weakness, while our spirit kneels

Thus in the presence-chamber of the great 1 AM!
And listens to the anthem thou art ringing,

Ever from off thine altar to His praise.

NORTHAMPTON WATER CURE.
Ty IE. untersigned, gratefully appreciating tne credit
generously awarded by a discerning public to hie
success as a Hydropathic Practitioner/ weak! res-
pectfully inform the friends of Hydrepathy, that bis
establishment is pleasantly situated near Beusonville,
on the west bank of the Licking Water, or Milk
River, about two and a half miles from the centro
of the town. Tt is thirty-six by seventy feet; three
stories high, with a piazza un the south side. ‘There
, are separate parlors, bathing and dressing rooms, for
ladies and gentlemen. ‘There are also twenty lodging
rootmns, each of which is well ventilated and con-
veniently farnished for the accommodation of two
emareens Among the variety of baths in the esta-
jishment are, the plunge, douche, drenchee, and
spray baths. The ladies’ plunge is six by ten feet,
three aed a half deep; the gentlemen’s, eight by
‘twelve, three and a half decp. There are also two
' cold douches, one of which is situated a mile, and the
other half a mile from the establishment. The former
has a fall of twenty-two feet, the latter cichteen.
The scenery in this vicinity is picturesque and
romantic. There are a variety of pleasant walls
passing near and to springs of pure water. The
walks are sutlieciently retired to allow water-cure
patients to appear as they should, plainly dressed,
enjoying their rambles, without being exposed tw
public aze or observation. Since daily experience,
for the last three years, has strengthened bis upinion ,.
that the condition ef the skin aaa indicates the
character of many diseases, and the ablity or inability
of an invalid to bear the water treatment in its
various forme ; also the Necessity of applying the
dry woollen blanket, or the wet sheet, to promote
evaporation or a eweat, when either may be neces-
wary; and from results which have attended his appli-
vation of the treatment, he hesitates Hot to may, that
the electric symptom of the skin indicates wtelity or
preer, and that an invalid, Whose «kin is not attended
with this symptom, cannot be safely of quecessfull
treated with water. Among the ccanplaints wae
are here successfully treated, are pulmonary affe? tion
liver complaints, jaundice, acute or chronic inflam.
mation of the bowels, piles, “eral de-
bility, nervous and spinal affections, ps ean
or ehronie =rheumatian, heuwalgia, sciatica, ‘cui
limbs , a fevers, salt rhewmn, serofulous and
eryemetas imunors.

All patients who visit this establishment for a
course of treatment, should fernizh themselves with
