DEPARTED FRIENDSHIP. » Ch! I have loved at eventide To wander forth and think of those j. Once luvcd'and loving by my side, Now sleeping where the grave-weed grows, jj- With nought to break their softrepose ; i] Calm—calm and peaceful as they rest ' From earth's delirious dream of woes, Ta silent slumbers pn her breast.— f And then to think how once we shar'd Holy aud tender sympathies— /Singled our hearts’ o’erflowing—heard Like spirits’ voices on the breeze Sweet tones of heaven-born melodies, Echoing in music through the soul. Till thought was kindled iulo bliss Beyond expression or control. The memory of hours like these— The purest and the best below— Comes with sweet thoughts of heavenly peace To chase the shades from Sorrow’s brow; And though we look around us now, »a the still hush of evening fraught, With feelings that no heart can know, For those we loted, and find them not. How can we mourn their early flight From pleasure’s morning-gliinmerings l*ere, To the full transport of that light 1 hat beams around their spirits there, Where all, to love and memory dear, Qweli in thsir homes of joy above ? When shall that heaven and earth appear. Of Ji'ace, and righteousness, and love ? — [From (be N Y. Statesman.] TO THE SUN. &vd of the Glorious Hay ! Thy beams are streaming f*r % And lost within thy ray, Shines dim each failing st^fc Upon the moss-grown tree, And oa the lasting hills, Thou throwest wildly free, Thy light on a thousand ril!«. fii.d of the Flnming Eye. Thy power and might IDrives darkness from the sky. And robe* the earth in light. While on the dew-gemm’d earth,, A thousand flowret’s lie, Who thankful for their birth With odors fill the sky. The world extended seems As basking in thy fires, A temple raid thy beamy Whose mountains are its spiiyy And curling clouds that rise Above their peaks ofsnow v But incense from the fires That brightly blaze below. Aid of the Fabled Lyae! Thy spell is on the earth, And kindled by thy fire To Music wakes the earthi The leathered songsters sing Their matin hymn to thee, Flyingto meft their king With mirth and melody* On the Mountain summit bow’d The Guebre knelt to thee, When unobscured by cloud Thou shou st In majesty— And trom the mountain brow And mid the mountain air, Came soft the lowly vow, And the melody of proves. .False though his erring creed Aud idle though his vow, Proud was tee God ludeed To whom he chose to bow, Search thro’ creation's space, Thro earth, thro’air, or sqa. Still gladly to thy face We turn aud kneel to thee. ON THE LOVELINESS OF WOMEN. It is not the smiles of a pretty face, nor the tin: of thy complexion, nor the beauty and symmetry of thy person, nor yet the Costly robes aud decoration that compose Ay artificial beauty—No! Nor that en chanting glance which thou dartest with Juch lustre on the man thou deignest wor- »hy of iby affection. It is thy pleasing vieportmeut—thychasle conversation, thv sensibility, and the purity of thv thoughts— thy alfil le aud open disposition—sym pathising with those in adversity—com- Anting the aflicted—relieving the dis tressed—and, above all, that humility of •eul, that unfeigned and perfect regard of iho precepts of Christianity. These virtues constitute thy Loveliness. Adorn ed with but those of nature simply, they will sliiue like the refulgent sun, and dis play to oian that the loveliness of thy per son is not to be found in the tinsel oi na- ateuts of the body, hut in the reflection of the rociitude and serenity of a well-spent ♦ife, that soars above the transient vanities \ of this world. And w hen thy davs are tinded here upon earth, thy happy spirit shall waft itself to the regions of eternal bliss. HARTFORD, (Ct.) OCT 28. A pe son answering the description of the lugitive tioru the Virginia Bank, passed through this city last week. He arrived here on Friday evening, and took the stage lor Boston via Northampton on Saturday morning. Two gentlemen have gone in pursuit. He will probabiy. be overtaken. Among tne strange sights aeon a: Brigh- lou ou Wednesday, waH that of a well trained Bull, caparisoned with a saddle, with chains for reins, upon which was mounted the person who had the animal in charge. This novel equestrian estab lishment moved off at a fair pace, followed, as may be supposed, by a throng of boys. Boston paper. Cure for Bilious Colic.—A lump of rosin about the size of a hazlenut, pul verized, and taken when the first symp toms of disease present themselves, has sometimes proved an effectual remedy for this painful and dangerous disease. Life.—How fearful is the very life which we hold! We have our being beneath a cloud, and are a marvel even to ourselves. There is not a single thought which has its affixed limits. Like circles in the water, our researches weaken as they extend, & van ish at last into the immeasurable and un fathomable space of the vast unknown.— We are like children in the dark; we trem ble in a shadowy aud terrible void, peo- j pled with our fancies ! Life is our real night, and the first gleam of the* morning, which brings us certainty, is death." A Thought o.v Death.—Death to a good man, is but passing through a dark en try, out of one little dusky room of his fa ther’s house, into another that is fair and larger, lightsome and glorious; and divine ly entertaining. O may the rays and splendor of my heavenly apartment shoot far downward, and gild the dark entry with such a cheerful gleam, as to banish every fear when I shall be called to pass through.— 'Waits. —e*©©— He that would pass the latter part of life with honour and decency, must, when he is young, consider that he shall one day be old, and lay up knowledge for his support, when his powers of acting shall forsake him ; and remember when lie is old that lie has once been young, and forbear to animadvert with unnecessary ri gor on faults which experience only can correct.-— Rambler. Ejfeet of Fear.—The Warrenton Re porter mentions a singular and shocking occurrence which happened in that village last week. Joel Mitchell a free man of co lor, aged 43 or 50, was to have been tried before the Superior Court, for a most atrocious murder, by stabbing, commit ted on the body of Miles Ralph, another oian of color, in Halifax county, some time ago—upon being sent for by the Court to take his trial, was seized with such violent fear and apprehension, ad ded to an indisposition for several days, which was thought to be but slight, that he expired in the yard before he could be placed at the bar or get into the Court house.—Raleigh Register. Arthur TappaD, Esq. of New York, is the gentleman who recently made to the “American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions,” the munificent donation of twenty-five thousand dollars. It is to be paid in five yearly instalments, and to be apropriated to the philanthropic uses of that very extensive and valuable missionary institution. A hint to those who need it.—The N Y. Morning Courier, in speaking of the sig natures to the Declaration of Indepen dence, says—“ Onegeueral character per vades all these signatures, except that of Stephen Hopkins, who Was palsied ; it is that of easy and distinct chirograph)’.— Our father’s were not ashamed of their names, and therefore wrote them legibly. This is more than can bo said of iheir sons ; for nine out of ten now-a-days, write as if they had the pen between their toes instead of their fingers. dr. CHAMBERS’ Uenu’tK for Intemperance. TF1HE S u ^ SCf *ber, on the decease of the late | Dr. Vim. Chambers, took into his posses sion the personal estate of the deceased,'and found prepared a large quantity of Doctor Cham bers’ remedy for intemperance. He hereby informs the public, that he has dis posed of all the Medicine so found, to Dr. James H. Hart, and Mr. Andrew M. Fannin The £ari DatmduTh harofferod lo pre sent to Dartmouth College a copy of the Portrait of his Grandfather, executed by one of die first English Artists. Mr. Kean’s son, uf w hom he said he should make an American citizen, has been engaged at the Drurv Lane theatre for the next season. He is to open in Romeo.— He is about 21; of his talents we have no sccouut. Extra Baggage.—A Frenchman wishing to take a stage for Buffalo, was asked by tlie driver ifhehad any extra baggage? VVhatdo you call dat? I have no baggage at all, but my three trunks, five dogs, and von black girl! Rhetorical Flourish.—A writer in the last number of the Kentucky Gazette, in telling the public how many stations he has filled, like the famous Caleb Quotem recounting his catalogue of professions and occupations—introduces the following flight of rhetoric ; which we concaive to contain a comparison entirely original; the author, therefore, is not in danger of being termed a plagiarist: ,, Although poetry is a good deal out of viy line ; as having been first bred a clerk of court; aud next mercantile accountant; and afterwards having studied and prac tised law ; which profession I have entire ly relinqfisbed, from my great aversion to the practice: which occupations(clerking, merchandising and jurisprudence) bea.r no niore’affinity or analogy to Belles Lettres, or the Muses,than mud on a swine’s snout dues to a quill in a Seraph’s wing.” [Augusta (Ky.) Herald. HOW TO CATCH WILD GEESE. A certain clergyman named Jchosnphat Ripbranch, who resided on the shore of a small bay in one of the eastern states, in formed me that lie had been remarkably successful in taking wild fowls, especially wild geese, and gave me permission to make public his method, which is simply this : Provide yourself with a small cord, as many fathoms as you can conveniently manage ; then catch an eol of a inidling size, and fasten one end of the cord to the tail of tiie eel, and let him go into the wa ter which these fowls frequent. Some one, generally a goose, will >mmediaieiy swallow the eel, which will instantly make for the water, and will as quickly be sei zed by another. In this way you may fill a line of any length. When you have caught as many as you want for the lime being, fasten the end of the cord to something piepared for tliepur pose, and proceed to the end superintended by the eel; let him go, and lie a small stick to this end cross ways. You. have then nothing to do but to tow them on shore. My roverend friend, however, wishes to inform the public that some cau tion is necessary,‘in the latter part of (he process, as an accident happened to him on one occasion, by which he lost his boat, qnd came very near losing his life. Hav ing taken about three thousand on his line, he fastened his end to a small stick which he threw overboard. When ho had got to the other end and had released the eel, a fellow on the shore discharged a fowling piece, which frightened the geese aud they immediately took flight. In the confusion ilieendof the cord became entangled in the rigging of the boat, and :he event was, that they raised the boat, parson and all, with as much ease as did Archimedes with his ‘Sambuca,’ the s^ips of Marcellus, at Syracuse, twirling them in (he air, and in that manner the poor parson, clinging to the boat, part to sea. lie was carried, as near as he could judge, about fifty miles, ft/ 5 ® Those persons indebted to when discovering a ship, he let himself | the late firm of HOLT Si WARE, and to the sub drop from a height of akouc fire hundred i briber on former transactions, will please come yards, into the sea, and was humanely 1 ! orw ’ ,rd ear!

In making this disposition, the subscriber has been actuated by a due regard to the interest of the heirs of the intestate, as well as from a wish to “ive the most extensive use to the virtues of the discovery, whatever they may be—and he can further add with confidence, that the gentlemeh who will hereafter be the venders of the remedy for Intemperance, as prepared by the Inventor, have been intimately connected with Dr. Cham bers in his life time—have been his agents in com pounding the medicine, and are acquainted w ith its composition. Silvamu Miller, Public Administrator, kc. flT The medicine will hereafter be prepared and sold by the subscribers, who alone are in possession of the original Receipe of the inven tor, at the office of. the late Dr. C. in the basement story of Rutgers’s Medical College in Duane street, east side of Broadway, and at the Medical store of Dr. Ilart. cornet bf Broad way and Chamber street, 3 doots from Washington Hall, New York. The astonishing success w hich this remedy has obtained in restoring habitual inebriates to so- hriety, has established its virtues beyond all con- i trsdiction, mid supersedes the necessity of any further comment. The remedy is as innocent as it is effectual; so much so, that it is often given to children in fe brile complaints, and frequently used as a family medicine for Dyspepsia, S;c. All that is required, to ensure its specific effect is to abide strictly by the directions. It is put up in packages sufficient fur one individual cure, a id accompanied w ith ample directions for its use, signed in the hand writing of the subscribers, w ithout which none are genuine. We are induced to adopt this mea sure, as in consequence of the grpat celebrity which Dr. Chambers’ "medicine has obtained, there have been, and doubtless will be, many spu rious imitations On enclosing to us the usual price, J$5. postage paid, the medicine can be sent by mail. To those w ho are unable to pay, on personal application of the individual at our office, the medicine will be administered gratis. JAMES H. HART, M. D. A. M. FANNING, Successors to W. Chambers.
