Sweep, cold The sea Is calm, the long-drawn swells Make gentle marmurs on the sand ; In fitfal gleams the annshine falls, Then dies away o’er all the land. Put still the heavy-headed cloud Lifts, genie-like, its darkening torm, And pales yet more the light of day, And bears upon its back the storm. I know that when its wrath is spent The angry cloud willmelt away ; And the sun, sinking in the west, Give promise of a brighter day. And no, 0 Lord, across our sky, Where red and white together blend, And stars amile from the field of blue, A veil o {darkness thou dost send.

EM received by them at first, yet afterwards . growing expert in managing of them, they . gave unto Uesan Cassanes and Ismael, two of the most mighty emperors of Persia, two memorable overthrows by the help of their ordnance only. The Portuguese were in the art the tutors to the Persians; for as Solyman, the Turkish emperor, objected against them, they not only aided Tamas, the Sofi, with certain harquebusiers (spelt in book barcabugiers), but also sent him workmen to show him the use and making of artillery, . These great pieces, at the first invention, were rude, unwieldy, and charged with stone bullets only butfby degrees they came to that perfection, both for the wall and the hand, which they now have. Whether now archery or gunning is to be preferred, I stand not here to determine; only this I am sure of, that victories bave been of late parchased with the less expense of life and blood than ever in former times they were, a of the same subject the town of Scodra, in Dalmatia, is thus described: The fifth town of note is Scodra, or Scutary, which resisted the Turkish puissance a whole year, and many days was battered with seventy pieces of ordnance, of wondrous bigness, especially that called the “Prince's Piece,’ which carried a stone or bullet of 1200 pounds weight. This town was gained by Mahomet II, Anno ’78. How to Stor Buxevinc.—The New York Bxaminer says that a medical friend, whose ropean experience gives value to his testimony, and whose beart has been pained at the number of deaths which have already taken place in our armp from the loss of blood from wounds, suggests that the perchloride of iron, an article to be obtained from all our large druggists, will check hemorrhage even from large veesels promptly and effectually, Four or five drops are safficient yo check completely the flow of blood from anything except the largest arteries, and half a teaspoonful will arrest bleeding even from these. He advises that each non-commissioned officer should be provided with a emall flat tin bottle of this, say & couple of ounces, which he can wear in bis breast pocket, and that the bottle should bave wound around it a Jittle buts of cotton ea which ligaid could be dropped or poured te apply it.

EM received by them at first, yet afterwards . growing expert in managing of them, they . gave unto Uesan Cassanes and Ismael, two of the most mighty emperors of Persia, two memorable overthrows by the help of their ordnance only. The Portuguese were in the art the tutors to the Persians; for as Solyman, the Turkish emperor, objected against them, they not only aided Tamas, the Sofi, with certain harquebusiers (spelt in book barcabugiers), but also sent him workmen to show him the use and making of artillery, . These great pieces, at the first invention, were rude, unwieldy, and charged with stone bullets only butfby degrees they came to that perfection, both for the wall and the hand, which they now have. Whether now archery or gunning is to be preferred, I stand not here to determine; only this I am sure of, that victories bave been of late parchased with the less expense of life and blood than ever in former times they were, a of the same subject the town of Scodra, in Dalmatia, is thus described: The fifth town of note is Scodra, or Scutary, which resisted the Turkish puissance a whole year, and many days was battered with seventy pieces of ordnance, of wondrous bigness, especially that called the “Prince's Piece,’ which carried a stone or bullet of 1200 pounds weight. This town was gained by Mahomet II, Anno ’78. How to Stor Buxevinc.—The New York Bxaminer says that a medical friend, whose ropean experience gives value to his testimony, and whose beart has been pained at the number of deaths which have already taken place in our armp from the loss of blood from wounds, suggests that the perchloride of iron, an article to be obtained from all our large druggists, will check hemorrhage even from large veesels promptly and effectually, Four or five drops are safficient yo check completely the flow of blood from anything except the largest arteries, and half a teaspoonful will arrest bleeding even from these.
