From the New Yoik Herald. GOOD EYE BIGHT. "R* now the dead of mg lit— And ilie new moon shines dimly, Yet 1 am quite cheerly l’ve got ■ sailor's rye. Awajmwi. I once knew a man that prided hnneelf on the atrenoth of hie vieiun—and to such length* •lid his infatuation carry him, that he boldly ofiiimcd that Uc could trace the lineage of a whole family by being acquainted with one of it* membere. Aa a proof of Ins penetration, he one evening took a walk with a friend in Broadway, and during their walk they met a lady unattended, coining toward* them. When within htiling d » ance, he made a midden halt, and ob-eivod to Ins fr.cnd thai he could call the ladv by name, although he had never met with her before. On h'B frend inquiring by what mean* he was enabled to penetrate so deeply into the mysteries of the unknown, ho remarked that when he was a midshipman in the Navy, (a boul eix years before) and was on a coasting voyage—they touched at South America, and while there, he made an acquaintance with her brother, and from the resemblance she bore to him, he was confident he eould call her by name. His friend, however, belonging to the univer sal Yankee nation,wa* with mere assertion—he was not to be nude game ot at so cheap a rate—it would not do no how—hut insisted Jon hi* given occular demonstration to prove hi* theory—and proposed makings bet that it. was all a matter of moonshine from beginning to end. Our hero midshipman, wa* now obliged t# round to, and face his antagonist, or down his colors, and bo called a coward. He chose the former, and accepted the wager, and step ping up to the lady, he accosted bur with a low bow, saying : “I beg your pardon, madam—ls lam not mistaken, your name is Me** B ? lam sc quaintod with your brother—have just left him at Sonlh America—and you bearing such a striking resemblance to h in, I have taken the liberty of introducing myself to yon in this public manner. My name, dear madam, is midshipman IV. oftho United States Navy— (handing her a card at the instant.) I stop at Miss S's fashionable hoarding house in C— street!* Tite lady, as would be supposed, was not a little startled, owing to the lateness ol the hour, to be lints publicly accosled by two gen tlemen, utter strangers to her—and was on the point of crying watch and bloody murder ; hut when she heard her brother's name men tioned, she forgot her fright and her unprotect ed situation, and in awoetind smiling manner acknowledged t “ You are not mistaken i t the person yon address. My name is Miss S——, and my brother, whom I have not heard from for ma ny years, is residing in Sonlh America. How was ho when you left him." “In capital health and spirits. He is one of the fi nest fellows I ever knew. Oh! the many little expeditions he and I have had !,’ “ You have V* said the lady—“ 1 should bo pleased to hear of my brother." “ Nothing would give me greater pleasure than to give you a full account of his move ments. Will yon permit me to have iho plea sure of calling on you !'* “I do want to hear of my dear brother"- and the sweet creature pausing and glancing her eye timidly over the fine person of the midshipman—“l reside at No.**, in *** street. If yon will call, we shall he glad to *n<“ you." They separated—in a few days the midship man was a constant visiter at the house oftho young lady’s father, and in less than two months the parson finished their business for l.fo in a most workman and rapid like manner Thus much for accuracy of vision. Cheap Accommodations. —A friend ha* given us his hill at a tavern in the western part of Wisconsin. It reads thus: Mr. to Dr. To 5 suppers, ti lodging, 2 breskftsls, 2 p cits of oats, Ol) “What,” said our friend, “only si* dollars?" “Oh," replied the landlord, “ns we had ir> hay for your horeo, and a* you slept in the bed of »ur 4 black man, who hits gout out to buy s tme dogs of the Indians, 1 have been rather n o ler ate, and hope you will say a word in our favor when you get in the vicinity of news papers." Anecdote. —An Indian chief having done n small favor for the first Governor of Canada, i ailed for Ins reward. His excellency took the ivd man into the public store room, and desir ed linn to name what he would. His savage ryes, after roaming about the room for some time, at last settled upon some tnllow candles which were suspended from a joist. He took them for foreign fruit hung up to dry. "Ale take dat,” said the savage. The Governsr handed him two pounds, which he thrust into his bosom, and went away well satisfied. A few days afterwards, the Governor met the In dian in tlte street, and after the usual compli ments, the following convcrslion ensued: “Governor—Well, Hut buck, how did you like the candles? Indian —Berry well. Governor.—Did you burn (hem ail yet? Indian.—Burn him ? I eat him. Governor.—You ate them? Indian—Yes, I boil him with ray corn and cat him all up. Governor.—And how did they eat? Indian,—Why, the fruit eat berry well, but tin; core stick in my squaw frofe, and nearly choke hinW.lul’s all.” As lira sly le of the In'ugural has been much heprasied, it is fair that it should undergo the or deal of crititcism, The New York Courier and Enqu:. er has discovered in it, the following beauties of style in which Mr. Van Uurcn dis plays that democratic independence of Grammar which distinguished him at the early period of his political caieor—when the lutlbriugs of his party wua intolerable. The Inaogiibal.—“ln imitating their exam plo” (in making a speech, not in saving the country) “I (read in the footsteps of illustrious men, whose superiors, it is our happiness to be lieve, are not found in the executive calender of any country." It is namet not people, that are usually found in calender*. A* loan executive calender, we have never heard of lha thing liefore. We have, however, some dim suspicion of w hat is meant. II Among them” (in the calender aforesaid) "we recognize the earliest ami firmest pillars of the republic.” A very happy continuation of the preceding metaphor of the calender. The illustrious men upon it are suddenly become not men, nor names, but pillars; and the pillarsofa calender ; which callcndet is an executive calender. “If such men in the position I now occupy, felt themselves overwhelmed by a sense of grati tude for this, the highest of marks of their coun try’s confidenca, and by a consciousness of their inability adequately to discharge dre duties of an office so difficult and exalted, how much more most those considerations cSecl one who can re ly on no alp'll claims for favor or forbearance.” it is certainly very dilfinlt not to agree with you, Mr. Yan Uurcn, in lira raodoalest possible view ofyour public services, virtues, or abilities, lie not, however ashamed of the office. Keep your confusion fix the means by which you got there. As fox “ gratitude- “to those who gave it to you, we beg leave to sal you- as to (he object of tine sentiment ;■ it was Andiew Jackson, not the poopk-, who-got you your place; tec tijly, as to the voles you got or the friends you have, they are not of that aort, or upon those motives, that call for a vary deep sens* of grati tude, or will content theiqwdret with »uch an unsubstantial return. A* lor the Presidency's being " the highest of all mark* oftho country’s confidence," we are compelled to say (hat lira fact of your election Utterly overthrows that Idea. In the ron'raU bet wean your merits and tbps* of I I I If ! your predecessors you at* certainly light. The whole world has been making, thereupon, the tame reflections as you so humbly give ua. Still, your delects of merit arc far, wc think, from being Hie most certain pledges* of the mod e-iy with which you approach your prevent sta tion. That virtue is not always the most emi -1 nenl iu those who have the greatest occasion fur 1 it. “Unlike all who have preceded me, the rev -1 olulion, that gave u* existence as one people, 1 was achieved at the period of my birth”— A beautiful specimen ol contusion of ideas! 1 Pray, what does the “unhke,” above, refer to? To the Revolution, certainly, ns far a* any (lung like an intelligible const nrattion in I race able in the sentence.—There is, too, a won ' derlul felicity in the idea thus clearly expound ed. It is certainly very remarkable that all a mnn’n yredecenaor* should not have been horn at the same time aa he was! It in a most profound and alli-ctiiiglhonglit, that Mr. Molly Van Boren, alias, “Glory enough to have served,” should absolutely have been born after those who went before him! As tonishing Mr. Van Boren ! But we must not expend all our wonder at a breath. Other marvel* are to come. I/st us pursue this lu minous sentence, “Uni ke all who have preceded me, the re volution, that gave u* existence aa ■ people, wan achieved at the period of my birth, and whilst 1 contemplate, with grateful reverence, that memorable erenl” —what, bin own birth a “ memorable event 1 ".—“ conlemplalea, with grateful reverence, (he “ memorable” event of Ilia own birth ? Really, this ia smncwliat 100 modest, your Excellency. But yon proceed, with the same unitable felicity, to say, “ that you feel you belong to a later age,••■than your birth ; and that, ns it is your singularly hard fate to have been born subsequently to those who were born previously to you, yen cannot expert yonr country to weigh your actions as kindly in the Potent Balances of Public Opin ion ! Oh sad perversity ! Oh lamentable distortion of the general sentiment! Oh cruel rigor of Pate, that ia ao apt to make a man younger than his grandfather, or even than his father. « The privileges, civil and religious of the humblest individual are safely protected.”— Inaugural of Mr. Van Daren. Tins is something new. The whole system of legislation in this state for many years past, ha* been adverse to the civil privileges of thousands in this Stale. Look at the Mono polies chartered to make the rich, richer, and the poor, poorer. Look at the political bond age under which Iho minority have suffered for years past .—lbid. “Every assumption of illegal power not only wounds the majesty of the law, but fur nishes a pretext for abridging the liberties of the people.— Mr. Van Daren's Augural. Yet, Mr. Van Buren it is said is about to reward Mr. Dallas with a Mission, who openly advised the assumption of illegal power, and maintained the rigid to violate existing laws and contracts!— lbid. “ A strict adherence to the letter and spirit of the Constitution." Mr. Van Buren promises this much. Wc will then see if hu will refer to his Oath as hii principal guide, and talk of inherent so vereignty in the President’s office prior io the Constitution, ua that stupid old man before him did.— lbid, REMARKS OF MR. CALHOUN, ON THE RECEPTION OF ABOLITION PETITIONS. tn Senate United Slate I, February, 1837. It (ho lime of (bo Kcnatc permitted, I would feel it to be my duly to cull fur the reading of the mass of petitions on the table, in order that we might know wbal language they hold lowarda the slave-holding States and their institutions; but as it will not, I have selected, indiscriminate ly from the pilr.t wo : one from those in manu script, and the other from the piinted, and with out knowing their content* will call for the read ing of them, ao that wo may judge, by them, of the character of the whole. (Here ilie Secretary, on the ca!l of Mr. Cal houn, readjlhe twojpclilions.) Much, resumed Mr. C., is the language held to wards ua and ours; the peculiar institutions of the South, that on the maintenance of vhich the very existence of the slave-holding State* depends, it pronounced to bo sinful ami odious, in the sight of God <k man; and this with a systematic design of remfe irg os hsteful in lira eyes of the world, with a \icw to a general crusade against ua and our in stitutions. This too, in the legislative halls of the Union ; created try these confederated States, for the belter protection of their peace, their safely ami their respective institutions; and yet we, the representatives of twelve of these sovereign- titea against whom (hi* deadly war is waged, are ex pected to sit here in alienee, hearing ourselves and our constituents d ty after day denounced, with out uttering a word,—if we but open our lips, the charge of agitation is resounded on all aides, and we are held up as seeking to aggravate iho evil which wo resist. Every reflecting mind must see in all this, a state of things deeply and dan gerously diseased. Ido not belong, said Mi. C,, to the school which holds that aggression is to be met by concession. Mine is the opposite erred, which teachers that encroachments must be met at lira beginning, and that those who act on the opposite principle are prepared to becrnio slaves. In (hit case in par ticular I hold concession or compromise to be fa lsi. If we concede an inch, concession would follow concession—-compromise, would follow compromise until our ranks would be so bro ken that effectual residence wsuld be impos sible. We must meet the enemy on the fron tier, with a fixed determination of maintain ing our position at eveiy hazard. Consent to re ceive these insulting petitions, and the next de mand will be that they bo referred to a committee in order that they may be deliberated and acted upon. At the last session we were modestly ask ed to receive them simply to lay them on the la ble, without any view of ulterior action. I then told the Senator from Pennsylvania. (Mr. Buch anan) who strongly urged that course in lira Senate, that it was u position that could not lie maintained ; as the argument in lavor if acting on the petitions if wc were bound to receive, could not be resisted. I then said that the next slop would be to refer the petition to a committee, and I already sec indications that such is now the in tention. If we yield, that will be followed by ano ther, we would thus proceed step by step to the final consummation of the object of these pe titions. We arc now told that the most effectual 1 mode of arresting the progress of Abolition is to > reason it down, and with this view it ia urged that (hr pe items ought to be referred to a com mittee. That is the very ground whieh was ta f ken at the last session in the other house, but in stead of arresting its progress it has since advan ' ced more rapidly than ever. The most unques i lionable right may be rendered doubtful, if once ■ admitted to be a subject of controversy, and that i would lie the case in the piesent instance. The subject is beyond the jurisdiction of Congress— > they have no light lo much it in any straps or form, or to make it the subject of deliberation or - discussion. In opposition to this view it is urged Congress is bound by the Constitution to receive petitions in every css# and on every subject, whether with in iu constitutional cunqictcncy or not. I hold the doctrine lo l>e absurd, and do solemnly be lieve, that it would be as easy to prove that it has 1 the right to abolish slavery, as that it is bound to • receive petitions for that purpose. The very ex ’ istenre of the rale that requires a question to be 1 put on the reception of petitions, is conclusive to t show, that there ia uo such obligation. It has 1 been a standing rule from the commencement of r the Government, and clearly allows the sense of t those who formed the Constitution on this point, i The question *p the reception would be absorb, t if as it contended w* are bound to receive; but I do not intend to argue the question; t discussed i it fully at the fast session, and the arguments then i advanced neither have nor con he answered. I As widely as this incendiary spirit hat spread, i it has not yet infected this body, or lira great mass . of the intelligent and business portion of th* ?* North; brf aa!e« It be speedily stopped it will spread and work upward* till It bangs tbt two i gretl section* of the Union into deadly conflict. Tliia ia not a new impression with me. Several , year* since, in adiacuaaion with one of the Sena ■ ter a from M assacbkselts, (Mr. Webater.) before thie fell apirii had showed ttaelf, I then predicted ' that the doctrine of the proclamation and the • force bill, —that this Government had a right in the lost report to determine the client of bia own powers, and enforce it at the point of thebayanel, which wot ao wairnly maintained by that Sena tor, would at no distant day arouse the dormant spirit of abolitionism ; I told him (list the doc i nine was tantamount to the assumption of un limited power on the part of the Government, and that such would he the impression on the pub , lie mind in a large portion of the Union. The consequence would be inevitable —a large portion of the Northern Slates believed slavery to be a sin, and would believe it to be an obligation of conscience to almlish it, if they should feel them selves in any degree responsible for its con tinuance, and that hia doctrine would neces siiiily lead to the (relief of such responsibili ty. I then predicted that it would commence as it has with this fanatical portion of socie ty, and that they would begin their operation on the ignorant, the weak, the young, and the thoughtless, and would gradually eitendupwards till they would become strong enough to obtain political control, when he and olhars holding the highest station* in society, would, however re luctant, be compelled to yield to their doctrine, or be driven into obscurity. But four years have since elapsed, and all this is already in a course of regular fulfilment. ■Standing at the point of lime at which we hare now arrived, it will not he more difficult te trace the course of future events now than it wat then. Those who imagine that the spirit now shroud in the North, will die away of itself with out a about or convulsion, have formed a very inadequate conception of its real charactei ; it will continue to rise and spread, unless prompt and efficient measures, to stay it* progress be a dopled. Already it has taken possession of tho pulpit, of the schools, and to a considerable ex lent of the press; those great instillments by which the mind of the rising generation will be formed. However (sound the great body of the non •lavc-holding States are at present, in the course of a few years they will be succeeded by those who will have been taught to hale the people and institutions of nearly one half of this Union, with a hatred more deadly than one hostile na , lion ever entertained against another. It is easy to see the end. By the necessary course of o vents, if left to themselves, we must become, fi nally, two people. It ia impossible under tho deadly haired which must spring up between the two great sections, if the present causes are per mitted tolerate unchecked, that we should con tinue under the same political system. The con flicting elements would burst the Union assun der as powerful as are tho links which hold it to gether. Abolition and the Union cannot co-ex ist. As the friend of the Union I openly pro claim il, and the sooner it is known the belter. The former may now be controlled, but in a short time il will bo beyond the power of man to airost the course of events. We of the South will not, cannot surrender our institutions, To maintain tho existing relations between the two races, inhabiting that section of the Union, is in dispensable to the peace and happiness of both. It cannot he subverted without drenching the country in blood, and extirpating one or the oth er of the races. Be it good or bad, il has grown up with our society and institutions, and is so in terwoven with them, that to destroy it would be to destroy us as a people. But let me not be under stood as admitting even by implication that tho existing relations between the (wo races in the slave-holding States in evil,—for otherwise; I hold it to boa goad, as it has thus far prov ed itself is to be to both, and will continue to prove so if not disturbed by the fell spirit of abolition. I appeal to acts. Never before has tins black race of Central Africa, from the dawn of history to the present day, attained a condition ao civilized and so improved, not only physically .but morally and intellectually. It came among us in a low, degraded, and savage condi tion, and it* the course of a few generation' it has grown up under the fostering care of otir insti tutions, as reviled as they have boon, to its pre sent comparative civilized condition. This, with the rapid increase of numbers, is conclusive proot of the general happiness of the race in spite of all the exaggerated tales to the contrary. In the mean time, the white or European race has not degenerated. It has kept pice with its brethren in other sections of tho Union where slavery duos not exist.—lt ia odious to make com parison ; but 1 appeal to all aides whether the South is not equal in virtue, intelligence, patriot ism. courage, disinterestedness, and all the high qualities which adorn our nature. I ask wheth er we have not contributed our full share of tal ents and political wisdom in forming and sustain ing this political fabric; and whether we have not constantly inclined most strongly to the side of liberty, and been (he first to ace and the first to reaist the encroachments of power. In one thing only arc we inferior, —the arts of gain ; ws acknowledge that we arc loss wealthy than tho Northern section of this Union, but 1 trace this mainly to tho fiscal action of this Government, which has extracted much frem, and spent little among ua. Had it been tho reverse, if the exac tion had been from the other section, and the ex penditure with us, this point of superiority would not be against us now as it was not at the forma tion of this Government, But 1 take higher gaiund. I hold that in the present state of civilization, where two races of different origin, and distinguished by color, and other physical dillbrenccs, as well as iniellectual, ate brought together, the relation now existing in slave holding States between the two, is, in stead of an evil, a good—a positive good. 1 feel myself culled upon to speak freely upon the sub ject where the lionot and interests of those I rep resent aia involved. 1 hold then, that there never hasyot existed a w ealthy and civilized society in which one portion of the community did not, in point of fad, live on tha labor of the other.— Broad and general as is this assertion, it is fully borne out by history. This is not the proper oc casion, but if it were, it would not be difficult to trace the various devices by which the wealth of all civilived communities has been so unequally divided, and to show by what means so small a share has been allotted to those by whose labor it was produced, and so large a share given to tho non-producing class. The devices are al most innumerable, from the brute force and gross superstition of ancient times, to the subtle and artful fiscal contrivances of modern. 1 might well challenge » comparison betvviai them and the more direct, simple, and patriarchal mode bv which the labor of the African race is among us commanded hy the Euro|ican. 1 may say with truth, that in few countries so much is left to tho share of the laborer, and so little ex acted from him, or where there is move kind at tention to him in sickness or infirmities of age Compare his condition with the tenants of the poor houses in the must civilized portions of Eu rope—took at the tick, and the old and the infirm slave, on one hand, in the midst of his family and friends, under tho kind superintending care of his master and mistress, and compare it with the forlorn and wretched condition of the pauper in the poor house. But I will not dwell on this as pect of the question; 1 turn to the poli ical; and hero I fentlessly assert that the existing relation between tire two races in the South, against which these blind fanatics arc waging war, forma the most solid and durable foundation on which to tear free and stable political institutions. It is useless to disguise the fact. There is and al ways has been in an advanced stage of wealth and civilization, a conflict between labor and esp ial. The condition of society in lbs South ex empts us from the disorders and dangers result ing from this conflict; and which explains why it is that the political condition of the slave-hold ing States has been so much mote stable and quirt than those of the North, The advantages of the former in this respect will become more end more |manifost if left undisturbed by inter ference from without, as the country advances in wealth and numbers. We have in fact but just entered that condition of society where the strength and durability of our political insti tutions are to be tested; and I ventura nothing in predicting that the experience of tho neat generation will fully lest how vastly more fa vorable CUT condition es society is to I bet of ether section* for free and stable Institution*, provided we ere not disturbed by the interference of others; or shall have sufficient intelligence end spirit to resist promptly and successfully such interference. It rests with ourselves to meet and repel them. I look not for aid to this Go vernment, or to the other Slate* ; not but theie ( are kind feelings towards us on the part of the ; great body of the non slave-holding Slate*; but as kind a*(heir feelings may be, we may real «*- sured that no poNlieal parly in those Slates will risk their ascendancy for our safety. If we do not defend ourselves none will defend us ; if vve yield we will be more and more pressed as vve re- j cede; and if we enhmit wc will be trampled un- ■ dcr foot. Be assured that emancipation itself would not satisfy these fanatics —that gained, the next step would tie to raise the negroes to a so cial and political equality with the whites ; and ‘ that being effected, we wonld soon find the pre sent condition of the two races reversed. They and their northern allies would be the masters, and we the slave*; the condition of the white race in the British West Indie Islands, as bad aa it ia, would be happineas to ours; —there the mo ther country ia interested in sustaining the supre macy of the European race. It la true that the j authority of the former master is destroyed, but the African will there, still be a slave, not to in dividuals but the community,—forced to labor, not by (he authority of the overseer, but by the bayonet of the soldiery and the rod of the civil magistrate. Surrounded as the slave-holding States are with auch imminent perils, 1 rejoice to think that our means of defence ere ample, if we ahetl prove to have the intelligence and spirit to see and apply them before it is 100 late. All wc want is con cert, to lay aside all party differences, and unit# with zeal and energy in repelling approach ing dangers. Lot there be conceit of action, and we shall find ample means of security with out resorting to secession or disunion. I speak with full knowledge end a thorough examination of the subject, and for one see my way clearly. One thing alarms me—the eager pursuit of gain which overspreads the land, and which absorbs every faculty of the mind and every feeling of the heart. Os all passions avarice is the moat blind and compromising—the last to see and the first te yield to danger. I dare not hope that any thing I can say will arouse the r*oalh to a due sense of danger; I fear il is beyond the power of mortal voice to awaken it in time from the fatal security into which it has fallen. CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL. ~ AtJOUSTA. Thursday Evening, March, 23 1837. We received nothing from Charleston last night in consequence of the failure of the can, and nothing from New York by the Express mail this morning. News fiom the latter place, was published in our paper yesterday up to Saturday Evening last, and on Sunday no slips are usually forwarded. I*. 8. Since the above was in type, the Charles ton papers have come to hand. The Standard of Union received here last night f contains a long communication to the public, from William N. Bishop. Who the author of it is wc do not know—but Bishop did not write it! It purports to be a reply to the presentments of the Grand Jury of Forsyth county, an extract from which we published a few day* ago, but is really nothing but a lame and impotent attempt on the part of the writer, to stop tho downward tenden cy which such appointments have given to his parly. This is attempted to be done first, by raising the cry of persecution in Bishop’* favor, and secondly, by making a violent and abusive attack upon Judge Kenan, who is charged as the author, or at least the instigator, of those present ments. U accuse* the Judge of injustice, parti ality end dishonesty, and all this forsooth because ho has had the laws of the land executed in a county, where Bishop himself had hitherto suc ceeded in completely arresting their operation.— But the eyes of the people are open on this sub ject—they are no longer lobe gulled and deluded hy those who have thus far sustained and counte nanced Bishop, by defending his chaiacter and appointing him to honorable and responsible offi ces, as the reward of hia partizan services. THE MAGICIAN—MONS. ADRIEN. We attended the Theatre last night to witness the performances of this gentleman, whose fame had reached ua through tho newspapers of vari ous places where he has heretofore exhibited, We were pleased, delighted, and often astonished at the cunning and dexterity with which he performs his tricks. His inability to speak the English language, from which we bad anticipated consi derable detriment to the interest of the perfor mance, create* little or no inconvenience whatever. We were often at a loss which most to admire, the unrivalled skill and power of the Magician, or the unsutpassed clearness and promptitude of the young gentlemen who act* as interpreter, in explaining without a moments hesitation every thing said and done. AMERICAN MONTHLY MAGAZINE. The March No. well sustains the high charac ter which this periodical justly possesses, and will be read with much interest and instruction. Its readers will also be gratified to learn, by a notice which accompanies il, that its indefatigable and enterprising publisher* have engaged the valua ble services of Dr, Robert M. Reid, author of "Calavar," Sec. Ac., at associate Editor, in con junction with its able and popular conductors, Messrs. Hoffman A Benjamin. We rejoice in this arrangement, and highly approve the praise worthy liberality which effected it, as will all who properly appreciate tho distinguished talent* and striking qualifications of Dr. Reid. AMERICAN TURF REGISTER. Tho March No. of this popular work contains, in addition to its usual quantum of interesting and valuable matter to the friends of the Turf, of field sports, Ac. Ac. a lithographic engraving of the celebrated race-dorse Mazeppa, from a paint ing by Troye. SOUTHERN AGRICULTURIST. The March No. of this excellent work is one es the best issued for several months, and ws earnestly recommend it to the attention of our agricultural friends. Il will amply repay them for a careful perusal; and indeed the entire week, ■o industriously and ably devoted to the great interest! of Southern agriculture, should bo zeal ously encouraged, patronized, and read, by every Southern Planter. -SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER. We are gratified to perceive that this beautiful and excellent work loses nothing of its wanted interest and ability, in the hands of its new Editor. The February No., now before us, is a highly valuable one, changing ever and anon, a* such a work should do, “From grave to gay, from lively to serene;" ar.d, itch alike in amusement and instruction, will not disappoint the interest with which it is usually opened by every class of its readers. The wosk is, indeed, an honor to the South, and rich ly deserves the extensive patronage and populari ty il his earned. We regret that our engage ments do not allow us to speak of the many excel lent paper* and merit* es this K*. as they de«ervo hi defsfl. from the Saoanitak Republics in. March 31. LATE FROM FLORIDA. MORE INDIAN’ DEPREDATIONS. The steamboat J. Slone, Copt. Mendsll, arri ved here this morning from Black Creek. W* are indebted to Cepl. Gale, who arrived in the a hove boat, for the Jacksonville Courier of Thurs | day last, and the Darien Telegraph of this morn ing. We extiact the following from the former ODpCL t'mm the Jacksonville Courier of Thursday hut. Ou Satorday night, the lltli inst., a pany of Indians madc-on attack On Mr. David Lang s I house, on the south prong of St. Mary’s River, a | bout lliiny miles from this place, and killed Mr. John A. Osteen, while silling at supper. The Indiana made a rush upon the house, which was checked, by Mr. Lang’s son, quite a lad, shoo ting one of the Indians entering the door. Ths family of Mr. Lang immediately closed the doors of the house which the Indians attempted to force open but failing, they retired, taking oil Mr. Os teen's horse. They caught and scalped a young negto, but he fortunately will, it is thought, sur vive the wound. Lt. Dell, of Capt. Bailey’s company, with a detachment, went on Sunday morning as soon as Ihe heard of this occurrence,in pursuit of the In dians. No human foresight can prevent those unfortunate occurrences. Scouts were out but the day before, all around the settlement in which Mr. Lang resides, without finding any signs of Indians. On Monday morning a detachment of thirty men from Capt. Dell’s company was sent from this place to scour that station thoroughtly, in or der, if possible, to route those prowling rascals. Those, are doubtless, the same Indians, who not long ago, committed in that section several outrages, of the same nature. They have not probably heard us the truce, or having heard, heed it not, and mean to continue their unholy butcheries. These prowlers, who have so long lurked about the south prong of the St. Marys and Brandy Branch, should he hunted like wolves.
