2! A a* From' the Herald. NORFOLK RACES. Vome Madam Muse, new nib thy pen, And put on thy best graces; To sing, in merry jocund 3train Tbe joys of Epsom Races. Cabinet of Momus. The sun doth dazzling lustre shed. Delightful is the morning, 'The intervening hours have fled, And striking clock gives warning. »Tis time for those to leave the town, Who wish to see the Races; Merchants must lay their yardsticks down, Tie up their tape and laces { Doctors their patients leave behind, , Alone with death to wrestle; 'Those who sell drugs of cv’rv kind, Quit for a time the pestle. Booksellers leave their fancy stores, And cease awhile to wheedle, Leaving their clerks to keep their door9. And pretty things to tweodle; .Editors lay aside the pen, And give their brains some leisure, For they above all other men Deserve a share of pleasure; Hucksters desert their fruit and cake, A thing to them distressing, For Sultan and Pugh their profits take, Who now are dinner dressing; Last, though not least, the Lawyers too, Must lay aside all pleading, And act as other people do, Prefer rare sport to reading In fact, all classes, black and white, Must leave their occupations, If they in races take delight, And love such recreations. Let tober folks, who do not care A cent for horse and bridle, Feel not disposed the fun to share— Remain—employed or idle. We chose to join the walking throng, Already in quick motion, The distance is not very long, And walking-suits our notion. We soon found friends among the crowd, Whose tongues, it seemed, were racing, They jan so fast and spoke so loud, A thousand themes embracing. Thus passing time we reach’d the course. And entered, ninepence paying; A toll established there perforce, The Club’s expence defraying. Delight then seized upon our mind, To see the merry faces Of all around to mirth inclin’d, Excited by the Races. The tall and lovfr, the lean and fat Mov’d lovhigiy together ; Stranger with stranger joined in chat About the track and weather. The gentleman of high degree,- Who notic’d not bis neighbor, Because oppress’d with poverty, He liv’d by daily labor, Would now his dignity nnhend, With features kind and smiling. And friendly nods to all extend, Pleasure his pride beguiling. Within the track were many gigs; Coaches and other vehicles, In some of which were cakes and figs, And Ladies with fine reticles. The hum of voices buzz’d around ; Horses were loudly snorting, Negroes and Bucks were alsc found, The latest fashions sporting. In Sutton’s tent an epicure Might suit his tickle palate ; Liquors had he, which we are sure Would please a toper’s gullet. And let us not forget friend Pugh, Of whiskey punch a mixer, Which we’re inclin’d to think the true Preserving life elixir. His booth refreshments fine contain, And when the Club is dining, We need not hunger long in vain, He’ll find our stomachs lining. But now the horn blows loud ancj strong, Th’ intended vace announcing. The grooms have buckled ev’ry thong— —The boys un saddle bouncing— Gr’at Ivanhoe brooks all delay, The bit he’s proudly champing ; Bob Craddock too, in fine array, Impatiently is stamping. Virginia Brown with comely mien, Is also gaily prancing, And at the variegated scene, With sparkling eyes, is glancing. The judges all are in their stauds, The riders in their places— ’Twas worth whatever gold commands To see their anxious faces The horses reached the starting spot, We list as to some inkling— When, “ go,”- aloud cries A******** They shoot off in a twinkling. Tbeu shouts and plaudits fill the air, Each breast with pleasure glowing; Horses and riders wing'd appear, So swiftly they were going. •Before the rest was Ivanhoe, Most beautifully moving, Whilst those behind did plainly siiow, Their speed could bear this proving. Dowu down the quarter stretch they fly, The goal-their sights uow meeting— Jluzza for Harrison’s the cry— Ami Ivanhoe has beaten. We now bad time some fruit to eat, And drink a glass of toddy, Which sheds a fine reviving’heat, Throughout a person’s body. yVe went among the crowd to hear Each witty observation, And guess from what might reach our ear, The next heat’s termination. The knowing ones look’d very wise, And so did the unknowing, For both alike look’d with their eyes, As all of us were doing. But no instruction could we get, And lost all hope of finding How with security to bet;— The hom began its winding The horses gallantly came up, The tighten'd curb despising, For each had quaff’d the usual sup, Which to the heads was rising. Prompt at the word away they go, The wind itself outstripping, But cruel man, their friend and foe, Spar’d neither spur nor whipping. Tiiis.heat was taken as before, And so the race was ended, On which; we’ve said a great deal more. Than we at first intended. We did not stay upon the course To witness some scrub races, Although Jhev constitute the source Of mirth, in many cases; Bnt pleas’d with what we saw to-day, We’ll wait until to-morrow. And then another visit pay, If we can ninepence borrow. Norfolk. Wednesday, May 23d, 1327. From tbe Charleston Courier. THE TRIBUTE TO LOVE. Now breathe thy sweetest lay my Lyre, Now giuh thy softest strain. Rekindle tbv ions- smothered fire, And sing of Love again. Awake, awake each trembling string, Aronsc each chord divine, To love, thy sweetest tribute bring, And lav them at her shrine. And thou mv heart so long oppressed With griefs sad dark’ning ray Breathe now the transports of a breast, Delighted at Love’s lav ! And thou wan care, no more shalt move This breast, so long, hey prey, I’ll touch the chords most dear to love, .’Twill drive those griefs away. I’ll wreathe a crown for thee my Lyre, As sweet as ere thou art. 'Twill breathe that soft, yet pure desire, That plays around my heart. Then round thy brow shall roses twine, And myrtle from the grove, But strike the chord that’s most divine. And it will whisper Love! Ask what is love t it is a feeling To every soul most dear; Around the hrart it oft is"stealing, And dwells forever there f And when we love with that pure flame, Which is to Angels given, It merits not an earthly name, F or lis a naim from Tleaven t And though-the e ve he dim with tears, And moist the rosy check; But call to mind love’s sweetest airs ’Tis then the heart will speak, Though sorrow round the soul may move, And dim the heart with pain ; But strike those chords that whisper Love, ’Twill all be sweet again! HORTENSIO. From Scenes in South Africa. A Lion Hunt.—“ VVe mustered by day light; and as we wpre anxious, for the sake of ihe novelty, to have somt of the Tambookies to accompany us, we prom ised to kill them plenty of bucks, and were not long in persuading thirty cf them to follow us. In a short time we observ ed them leading out of the cattle kraaf two milk oxen, with their horns bound round with thongs which, to all appear ance, one might fancy were intended for sacrifice, but on closer inspection we found they were their pack oxen, prepared to carry home such as we might kill for them. We made a singular apnearance as we cantered along. Each Tambookie had a half-starved dog ; some of the best run ners would keep close to us, but on occa- sionallydooking back, the plain seemed covered with horsemen—whites and Hot tentots, blacks and dogs. “ Our party was formed into two di visions, Mr. S. Mr. R. and ourselves were to cross the plain about the centre, Die- derick was our leader. The other party were to skirt the base of the mountain, abou* which grew a few tall mimosas, and to keep in an even line with us, about half a utile distant. “ The monntain seemed to meet just before ps, but, as we approached, we saw a pretty wide opening, through which we passed, when another Valiev or plain, of similar character, but of much greater ex tent, was presented to our view. Here all animated nature seemed collected, and to reign unmolested! The .signal was, however, soon given—that man, the des troyer, was approaching, and all the vari ous animals, with snorts and bounds, be gan to collect in bodies—gnoos, harte- beasts, quaggas, spring bucks, and roe bucks. Thegnoo is the animal so well described by Barrow,, the existence of which was but a very lew years ago dis puted. They run sluggishly at first, bnt at once they spring out, whisk their long tails about, and, with their heads to the ground, defy their pursuers. Their dus ky colour and bushy heads give them a strange appearance. “ Mr. S. had chased so.me of these ani mals in the direction of the mimosas, tren ching on the ground which our comrades were to take; be was getting closer to his object, and was about to dismount a se cond time, when his eyes glanced on the long-wished-for game-lan enormous Lion! He was walking majestically slow; but when Mr. S. gave the tally-ho to us , he couched, and seemed inclined to wait, but soon afterwart&cantered off to the mi mosas. . -% J “ In a few seconds we were all up—at least, our division. The first object was to prevent him from climbing the moun tain ; we therefore rode .through the rnr* mosas, about three hundred yards from where he had entered, and got between him and the heights. Diedrick Muller and Mr. S. with their servants and lead horses, then rode round the little grove, whilst we were stationed where we first entered. The grove was hardly five hun dred yards in length and twenty in breadth; consequently, we could b.y this arrange ment command the whole of it. “ True to our engagement, as well as heartily wishing their assistance, we wait ed for the other party. The other part of our division having rode round the grove, came up opposite to us, but at a distance, j and as we saw them dismount, we did the j Have just received a fresh supply of the celeora.ed TURPIN & D ANTIGNAC, AGENTS. same. Our situation was not very envia ble ; we had but one large gun; but Mr. Rennie, who carried it, was perfectly col lected. We were talking to each other in a whisper, when Mr. Rennie very coolly said, “ listen, the gentleman is grumbling.” The sound was so very like distant thun der, that we doubted if; but at the same moment I caught a glimpse of the lion walking away, not a hundred and fifty yards from ns, and he must have been pre viously still nearer to us than we had.cal culated. I gave the alarm, which was echoed to our friend, who in an instant mounted and rode up to the lower end, calling upon us to advance. We were mo ving down to gain a position on a little height, when a gun was fired, followed by four more. This convinced us our other division had joined. ” We thought there would have been an end to our sport before it had well be gun; but on the contrary, the shots were fired not only to prevent him leaving the copse, but to prove their guns, for a miss- fire is frequently of consequence. The last shot had the effect of turning him, & we now had a full view of him returning to the centre, whisking his tail about, and treading among the smaller bushes as if they had been grass, reminding us most forcibly of the paintings we had seen of this majestic animal. “ We had hardly began to tie our hor ses, when the Hottentots stationed on the hill cried out that the lion was running off at the lower end, where he had attempted to escape before. We were on horseback in a second, but the lion had got ohead ; we had him, however, in full view, as there was nothing to intercept it. Off he scampered. The Tambookies, who had just come up and mixed amongst us, could scarcely clear themselves of our horses ; and their doga howling and barking—we hallooing—the lion still in view, making fur a small copse, about a mile distant— and the manner and variety of the ante lopes on our left, scouring off in different directions, formed one of the most anima ting spectacles the annals of sporting could produce. “ Diedrick and Mr. S. being on very spirited horses, were the foremost, and we wondered to see them pass on in a di rection different from the copse where we had seen the lion take covert. Christian gave us the signal to dismount, when we were, as well as could be judged, about 200 yards from the copse. He desired us to be quick in tying the horses, which was done as fast as they each came up.— And now the die was cast, there was no retreating. We were on lower ground than the lion, with not a bush around us. Diedrick and Mr. S. had now turned their horses, for, as we afterwards learned, they had been run off with in consequence of their bridles having broken. The plan was, to advance in a body, leaving our horses with the Hottentois, who were to keep their backs toward the lion, fearing they should become unruly at the sight of him. “ All these preparations occupied but a few seconds, and were not completed— when we heard him gimwl, and imagined he was making off again; but no—as if to retrieve his character from suspicion’of cowardice from former flight, he had made up his mind in turn to attack us. To the growl, succeeded a roar, and in the same instant we saw him bearing down upon us, Ills eye balls glistening with rage. We were unprepared; his motion was so ra pid, no one could take aim, and he furi ously darted at one of our horses, whilst we were at their heads, without a possi bility of thejr preventing it. The poor horse sprung’for ward, and, with the force of the action, wheeled all the horses round with him. The lion likewise wheeled, but immediately couched at less than ten yards from us. Our left flank thus be came exposed, and on it fortunately stood C. Muller and Mr Rennie. What an anxious moment! Fora few seconds we saw the monster at this little distance, re solving, as it were, on whom he should first spring. Never did I long so ardent ly to hear the report of a gun. We look ed at them aiming, and then at the lion. It was absolutely necessary to give a mor tal blow or the consequences might be fa tal to some one of the party. A second seemed.a minute. At length Christian fired ; the under jaw of the lion dropped —blood gushed from iiis mouth, and he turned round with a view to escape. Mr. Rennie then shot him through the_ spine —and he fell. “ At this moment he looked grand be yond expression. Turning again towards us, he rose upon his fore-feet—his mouth bleeding, his eyes flashing vengeance.— He attempted to spring at us, but his hind legs denied him assistance; he dragged them a little space, when Stepbanus put a final period to his existence, by shooting him through the brain. He was a noble animal—measuring nearly twelve feet from the nose to t'qp tip of the tail. “ Thus ended a scene which I have in vain endeavored to describe, qqd which I never can forget.” Swaim’s Panacea. For the cure of Scrofula, or King’s Evil, Ulcers, Rheumatism, Syphilitic, Mercurial and Liver Complaints, and most Diseases arising in de bilitated constitutions, or from an impure state of the Blood, &c. he. T HIS Medicine has acquired a very extend ed and established celebrity both in Hos pital and Private practice, which its efficacy alone lias supported for these seven years past. As a spring or fall purifier it has given new constitutions to thousands, it is by its operation on the Blood that such surprising cures have been performed in numerous diseases. The effect of this medicine is such as not to in terrupt either business or pleasure, and requires only the common restraint of moderation in diet. It is conveyed by the circulating fluids, and cor rects theirtender.cies to all those diseases which originate in vitiated blood, diseased liver, or de praved appetite. It is a safe medicine, and re moves all those evils which an unsuccessful use of mercury so often occasions. No one, how ever is advised to take’ it, without first fully con vincing himself of the truth of what is here stated and the rectitude of the Proprietor’s intentions. NEW BOOK STORE, No. 297, North side Btoad-slreel, * A few doors above Mr. Thomas Cummins’s range of Brick Buildings, Where may be had the following valuable Medical BOOKS, This Medicine has the singular fortune, a just tribute to its great merit, of being recommended by the most celebrated Practitioners of Medicine in the United States and elsewhere, whereas not one of the spurious mixtures made in imitation of it, is supported by the Faculty. This fact of fers an argument so plain and conclusive, that it needs only to be mentioned to enforce convic tion. From Dr. Wm. Price, formerly Surgeon of the Pennsylvania Hospital, he. Liverpool, (eng.) Sept. 1823. The Vegetable Syrup, called Swaira’s Pana cea, prepared by Mr. Swaim, of Philadelphia, has recently been introduced here by Dr. Price, fr?m the United States of America, where it is now extensively used in the treatment of a varie ty af Chronic Diseases. Of the efficacy of this preparation Dr- Price has had abundant and most satisfactory evidence, during a course of experiments made under his direction, whilst Surgeon of the Pennsylvania Hospital; and since his arrival in England, he has had the good fortune of witnessing many ad ditional instances of its successful administration. The diseases in which this Medicine has been paiticularly useful, are those arising from con stitutional causes—as in the various forms of Scrofula, whether affecting the bones, joints, or soft parts; and in cases, where a disposition to this disease is manifested by debility only, it operates as a preventive to the local disease by its beneficial effects on the constitution. It is equally efficacious in mercurial disease, and in the secondary forms of Sypilisj and has lately been gi"en with marked success in chronic dis eases of the Liver, which had resisted the careful exhibition of mercury. It lias, likewise, very re cently been administered with decided advant age by one of the most distinguished Surgeons in London, in a case which had entirely destroyed the right eye of the patient, and a great portion of the side of the face.
