There is ;m extensive swaiiq) in the section of the stale of Mississippi, which lies partly in the Choctaw territory! It commences at the herders of flu; Mississippi, at no great distance iVotii a Chicasaw village, situated near the ~jniith of ac • k. known by tlie name of \ an eonnnb, and partK inundated hy the swelling of N.aeral large bayous, the principal of which, crossing the swamp in its whole extent, dischar ,„.s its waters n>' lar from the mouth of the } a 7,00 River. This famous bayou is called h dse River. —The swamp of which 1 am speak mg follows the windings of the a/.00, until the latter branches off to the’north-east, and at this point forms th< stream named Cold Water Riv er. below which the a/.00 receives I lie drain ing of another havoti, inclining towards the north west, and intersecting that known by the name of False River, at a short distance from tin- place where ihe latter received the waters ei the Mississippi. I’lns tedious account of the situation of the swamp given with the view of | join mg it out to all s'talents ot nature who mav chan -e to go that way, and whom I would earnest 1 v urge to visit its interior, .as it abounds in rare and interesting productions, birds, quad* i •jj 11 ds. and ivp'des, as well as moluscous .ini inals, maiiv of which, I am persuaded, have no rer hr ten tie scribed. In the conrs • of one of my rambles I clian <-f.| to meet with a squatter s cabin on the banks of the Co! Water River. In the owner of this hut, like most of those adventurous settlors in the uncultivated tracts of our frontier districts, I found a person well versed in the chase, and acquainted with the habits of some of the larg est species of quadrupeds and birds. As he who is desirous of instruction ought not to dis dain listening to anv one who has knowledge to communicate, however humble maybe his lot, or however limited his talents, I entered the s matter's cabin, and immediately opened a con versation w i h him respecting the situation of dm swamp, and its natural productions, lie told !.!•' he thought it the very place I ought to visit, <; ■■!.>• of the game which it contained, &. p. tinted t i s : . ■ u er and deer skins, adding that die in.livid mis to which they belonged formed hut a small portion of the number of the ani mals which k.e had shot within it. My heart swelled with d light : and on asking!} he would aceompanv me through the great morass, and allow me to become an inmate ol his humble but 1 ospitable mansion, I was gratified to find that V cord; illv ass nted to till my proposals.—So 1 immediate!} unstrapped my drawing materials, i iid up mv gan, and sat down to partake ol the vhole-some fire of the supper intended for the squatter, his wife and his two sons. The quietness of the evening seemed in per fvt; vordance with the gentle demeanour of his f.sm \. —The wife and children, I more than once thought, seem I to look upon me as a strange sort of a person, going about, as 1 told f cm 1 was, in search of birds and plants; and wore 1 hereto relate the many questions which tin \ put to nv in return for those winch I ad dressed to them, tiie catalogue would occupy s vend pag 's. The husband, a native of Con nection;. had heard of the existence of such men as mvs if. both in our own country and a hrond. and seemed greatly pleased to have me under his roof. Stumer over, I asked my kind host what had induced him to remove to this w ild and solitary spot : “ 'The people are grow ing too numerous now to thrive in New-Eng laml," was his answer. I thought of the state of some parts in Europe, and calculating the vnsenoss of tb ir population compared with that of New F.agbmd, exclaimed to myself. • How much more dilhcult must it be for men to t rive in those p ; n ous countries T—The con \ ;sation lh n changed, and the squatter, his - ns, and im s« If sp >ke of hunting and fishing. ■ at 1 not i tired, we laid ourselves down on • ;s of hoar skins, and reposed in peace on j »r of the only apartment of which the *nn cons sted. 1' v dawned, anil the squatters call to Ids U. v ’being almost in a wild state, were s '' r i to seek the greater portion of their food in vie woods, awakened me. Being ready drC" . j was not long in joining him. The an i their vountr came grunting at the well k’li wn call of their owner, who threw them a lew ears of corn, and counted them, but told me J that f • some weeks their number had been i -treatjy dimmish d by the ravages committed , a them bv a large Panther, bv which name 'he cougar is designated in America, and that the ravenous animal did not content himself with tlie f -sh of his pigs, but now and then car "o i off one of his calves, notwithstanding the niuny attempts he had made to shoot it. The painter as he sometimes called it, had on Seve rn occasions robbed him of a dead deer, and !m tries-■ exploits the squatter added several re •utrkauie tacts oi audacity which it iiad pcrforni- — mmmm i « i —g ■■ w—^—■ ■■ i ed, to give me an idea of tlie formidable char, j acter of the beast. Delighted by this descrip tion, 1 offered to assist him in destroying the en emy, at which he was highly pleased, bu -• ur ed me that unless some of his neighbour- old j assist us with their dogs, and his own, the at- I tempt would prove fruitless. Soon after mount- | ing a horse, lie went off to his neighbors, seve- j ral of whom lived at a distance of some miles, and appointed a day of meeting. The hunters accordingly made their appear ance one fine morning at the door of the cabin, just as the sun was emerging from beneath the horizon. Thev were five in number, and fully equipped for the chase, being'mounted on horses, which in some parts of Europe might appear sorry nags, but which in strength, speed and bottom, are better fitted fir pursuing a cougar ora hear through woods and morasses than any in that country. A pack of large uglv curs were already engaged in making acquaintance with those of the squatter. He and myself mounted his two best horses, whilst his sons were bestrid ing others of inferior quality. Few words were uttered by the party till we had readied the edge of the swamp, where it was agreed that all should disperse and seek for the fresh track of the painter, it being previously settled that tlie discoverer should blow his horn, and remain on the spot until the rest should join him. In less than an hour the sound of the horn was clearly heard, and, sticking close to the squatter, off we went through the thick woods, guided only hy the now and then repeated cal! of the distant huntsman, *W e soon readied the j spot & in a short time the rest of the party came up. 'The best dogs were sent forward to track tlie cougar, and in a few minutes the whole pack were observed diligently trailing and bearing in their course for the interior of the swamp. 'The rifles were immediately put in trim, and the par ty followed the dogs at separate distances, but in sight of each other, determined to shoot at no other game than the panther. The dogs soon began to mouth and suddenly quickened their pace. My companions con cluded that the beast was on the ground, and putting our horses to a gentle gallop, we follow, ed the curs, guided by their voices. The noise of the dogs increased, when all of a sudden their mode of barking became altered, and the squat ter urging me to push on, told me that the boast was treed, by which he meant that it had got upon some low branch of a large tree to rest for a few moments, and that should we not succeed in shooting him when thus situated, we might expect a long chase of it. As we approached the spot, we all by degrees united into a body, but on seeing the dogs at the foot of a large tree sei a rated again and galloped off to surround it. Each hunter now moved with caution, holding his gun ready, and allowing the bridle to dandle on the nock of his horse, as it advanced slowlv towards the dogs. A shot from one ofthe party wrfs heard, on which the cougar was so-si to leap to the ground, and bound oil" with such velocity as to show that he was very unwilling to stand our fire longer. The dogs set offin pursuit with great eagerness and a deafening cry. The hun ter who had fired came up and said that his ball had hit the monster, and had probablv broken one of his fore legs near the shoulder, the only place at which lie could aim. A slight trail of blood was discovered on the ground, but the curs proceeded at such a rate that we merely noticed this, and put spurs to our horses, which galloped on towards the centre ol the swamp. One bayou was crossed, then ano ther still larger and more muddy ; but tlie dogs were brushing forward, and as the horses began to pant at a furious rate, we judged it expedient to leave them and advance on foot. These de termined hunters knew that the cougar being wounded, would shortly ascend another tree, where in all probability he would remain for a considerable time, and that it would be easy to follow the track. Wo dismounted, took oifthe saddles, set the bells attached to the horses necks at liberty to jingle, hoppled the animals, and left them to shift for themselves. Now, kind reader, follow tlie group marching through the swamp, crossing the muddy pools, and making the best of their way over fallen trees and amongst the tangled rushes that now and then covered acres of ground. If you are a hunter yourself, all this will appear nothing to you; but if crowded assemblies of “beauty and fashion,” or the quiet enjoyment of your “plea sure grounds” alone delight you, 1 must ru nd mv pen before I attempt to give you an Uea of the pleasure felt on such an expedition. After marching for a couple of hours, we a gain heard the dogs. Each of us pressing for ward, elated at the thought of terminating the career of the cougar. Borne of tlie dogs were heard whining, although the greater number barked vehemently. We felt assured that the cougar was treed, and that he would rest for some time to recover from his fatigue. As we came up to the dogs, wc discovered the ferocious ani mal lying across a large branch, close to the trunk of a cotton wood tree, his broad breast ly intr towards us; his eyes were at one time bent on us. and again on the dogs beneath and around him; oueofiiis fore legs hung closely hy his side, and lie lay crouched with his ears lowered close to his head as if he thought that lie might remain undiscovered. Three balls were fired at him, at a given signal, on which he sprang a few feet from tlie branch, and tumbled headlong !to the ground. Attacked on all sides by the en raged curs, the infuriated cougar fought with J desperate valor; but the squatter advancing in j front ofthe party, and almost in the midst ofthe dogs, shot him immediately behind and beneath the left shoulder. The cougar writhed for a moment in agonv and in another lay dead. The sun was now sinking in the west. Two j ofthe hunters separated from the rest, to procure j venison, whilst the squatter's sons were ordered ! to make the best of their way home, to be ready I !to feed the hogs in the morning. The rest of I the party agreed to campon the spot. The cou £ar was despoiled of its ski mid its carcass ief: to tiie hungry dogs. Whilst engaged in pre paring our camp, we heard the report of a gun, and soon after one of our hunters returned with a small deer. A lire was lighted, and each hun ter displayed his pone of bread, along with a flask of whiskey. The deer was skinned in a trice, and slices placed on sticks before the fire. These materials afforded us an excellent meal, and as the night grew darker, stories and songs went round, until my companions, latigucd, laid them- ■ —■ M -- - - PH— —— 1 selves down close under the smoke of the fire and soon fell asleep. 1 walked for some minutes round the camp, to contemplate the beauties of that nature, from | which I have certainly derived my greatest I pleasures: I thought of the occurrences ofthe • day, and glancing my eye around, remarked the | singular ( fleet produced by the phosphorescent j qualities of the large decayed trunks which lay ! in all directionsaronnd me. Howeasv, l thought would it be fur the confused and agitated mind ol a person bewildered in a swamp like this, to ima gine in each of these luminous masses, some won drous and fearful being, tlie very sight of which might make the hair stand erect on his head. — 'The thought of being ruvself placed in such a predicament, burst over my mind, and 1 hasten ed to join my companions, beside whom I laid me down and slept, assured that no enemy could approach us without first rousing the dog, which, growling in fierce dispute over the remains of the cougar. At day break we left our camp ; the squat ter bearing on bis shoulder the skin of the la f e destroyer of Ids stock, and retraced our steps until we found our horses, which had not stray ed far from the place where we had left them. These we soon saddled and jogging along in a direct course, guided by the sun, congratulating each other on the destruction of so formidable a neighbour ns the panther had been, we soon arrived at my host’s cabin. The five neigh bours partook of such refreshment ns the house could afford, and dispersing, returned to their houses, to follow my favourite pursuits. ♦ SPEfTJIAL ILLUSIONS. On the 30th of December, about 4 o’clock in the afternoon, Mrs. A. came down stairs into tiie drawing room, which she had only a few minutes belli re quitted, and on entering the room she saw her husband, as she supposed, standing with his back to the lire. As he bad gone out totakeawalk about half an hour before, she was surprised to see him there, and asked him why he had returned so soon. The figure looked steadfastly at her with a serious and thoughtful expression of countenance, but did not speak. Supposing that bis mind was ab sorbed in thought, she sat down in an arm-chair near tlie fire, and within two feet at most of the figure, which she still saw standing before her. As its eyes, however, still continued to be fixed on her, she said after the lapse of a few minutes, “ Why don’t you speak ?” The figure im mediately moved off towards the window at the farther end of the room, with its eyes still gaz ing on her, and it passed so very close to her in doing so. that she was struck by the circum stance of hearing no step nor sound, nor feel ing her clothes brushed against, nor even anv agitation in the air. Although she was now convinced that the figure was not her husband, yet she never fur a moment supposed that it was any thing supernatural, and was soon convin ced that it was a spectral illusion. About a month alter this occurrence, M rs. A. who had ta ken a somewhat fatiguing drive during the day, was preparing to go to bed about eleven o’- clock at night, and, sitting before the dressing glass, was occupied in arranging her hair. She *- I o o was in a listless and drowsy state of mind, but fully awake. \\ hen her fingers were in active motion among the papillotes, she was sud denly startled by seeing in tlie mirror, the face of a near relation, who was then in Scotland, and in perfect health. The apparition appeared over her left shoulder, and its eyes met hers in the glass. It was v doped in grave-clothes, closely pinned, as is : d with corpses, round the head, and under ‘he chin, and though the eyes were open, the features were solemn and rigid. The dress was evidently a shroud, as Mrs. A. remarked even the punctured pattern usually worked in a peculiar manner round the edges of that garment. Mrs. A. described her self at the time sensible of a feeling like what we conceive fascination, compelling her for a time to gaze on this apparition, which was as distinct and vivid as any reflected reality could be, the light of the candles upon the dressing table appearing to shine full upon its face. Af ter a few minutes she turned round to look for the reality ofthe form over her shoulder ; but it was not visible, and it had also disappeared from the glass when she looked again m that direc tion. On the 26th of the same month, about 2 P. M. Mrs. A. was sitting in a chair by the win dow in the same room with her husband. He heard her exclaim, “ What have I seen ?” And on looking at her, ho observed a s'range expres sion in her eyes and countenance. A carriage and four had appeared to her to lie driving up the entrance road to the house. As it approached, she felt inclined to go up stairs to receive com pany, but as if spell-bound, she was unable to move or speak. The carriage approached, and as it arrived within a few yards of the window, she saw the figures of the postilions and the per sons inside take the ghastly appearance of skele tons and other hideous figures. The whole then vanished entirely, when she uttered the above mentioned exclamation. —Sir I). Brewster.

W'iftle & Wiliinsu Eaagar, 'ip ESPECTFULLY inform tlie Printers of the A United States, to whom they have long been in dividually known as established Letter Founders, that they have now formed a co-partnership in said busi. ness, and hope from their united skill, and extensive experience, to be able to give full satisfaction to all who may favor them with orders. The introduction ol machinery, in place of the tedious and unhealthy process of casting type by hand, long a desideratum by the European and American Founders, was, bv American ingenuity, and a heavy expenditure of time and money on tlie part of our senior partner, first successfully accomplished. Extensive use ot the ma chine cast letter, has fully tested and established its superiority, in every particular, over that cast by the old process. The Letter Foundry business will hereafter be car ried on by the parties before named, njjder the firm of WHITE, HAGAR and Co. Their specimen exhibits a complete series from diamond to 14 lines Pica.
