Wliat is a Sigh.
Vvln.t is a sigli? A hidden tear
Welling up from a weeping heart,
It is not seen, hut greets the ear
As though it were of life a part.
It speaks of crushed and ruined hopes—;
The lover false,the frienS unkind,
And tell how Love, with Reason, copes
To gain dominion in the, iqind.
What is a sigh? A solemn breath
That’s wafted out on wings of thought,
It tells of sickness—sorrow—death—
Of poignant grief by trouble wrought,
And aspiration high and bold
Dashed headlong down to earth again,
It speaks slanguage c’cn untold
By minstrels lyre or poet’s pen.
What is a sigh? An anxions fear
That from the bosom takes its flight,
To leave behind a chasm drear,
And all devoid of cheering light.
Emblem of ill! 0 unseen thing!
How many woes do you unfold!
What mournful requiems dost thou sing
Of broken hearts, end spirits cold.
What is a sigb? ‘Tis oft ths sound
That tells of broken, severed ties,
Which once two hearts together bownd
In friendship fond, but ail unwise,
.T’would take the psn of dark despair
Dipped deep within a fonut of tears,
To picture sighs, just as they are,
The symbols true of mental care..

A Mobllllan’s Experience in Smalt-
We had the pleasure of a visit yaatnrdsf
from Mr. James J Shelby, au intnlligsnt
Mobile youth, who has just returned frotn
Brazil, whither he went in 13C> T.
Mr. Shelby landed first at Rio, took pan-
sage from there for Pars, in the goverh.-
rnent steamer, fur the purpose of joining
the colonists who went ft am Mobile under
the gtiidauco of Major Hastings, aud had
settled some distance up the Amasoa.
* * * »
The colonists who went out with Maj.
Tlastiugs were promised supplies for aix
mouths, or their equivalent in money, with
which to purchase supp ies where they
might deem proper. How that promise
was kept may be appreciated from tha fol
lowing.
The official charged with furuisiug the
settlers with suppliee ia named Pinto. He
is Vice President of the province of Pain,
vnd proprietor of a harem which turna him
out annually a fair crop of half breed In
dians and uevro offspring.
With the money that Pinto had re
ccived from the government for the purpose
designated, he established a store on the
bunk of the river, with the cheapest gro
ceries he could obtain, and forced the set
tlers to bay from him at the highest cash
price, or starve.
The settlement i» distant from tha rivar
about eight miles; a sandy desert without
shade intervening; aud one* there tha set
tlers had to trudge under a t ropical aun
hearing on their backs the poor but costly
groceries supplied by the enterprising Pin
to. Delicate women, from Alabama had
often to perform that fearful task.
The land in tile Hastings setalement, and
the Valiev of the Amazon generally, is infe
rior in quality to that of our own country;
and whatever is planted is speedily devoured
by the miriads of insects that swarm in
those tropical regions. Not only do those
pests attack vegetable life, but man aud
beast as well. An insect called by sailors
-‘the jigger,’’lies in wait at every turn ready
to make lodgment in the foot of the pedes
trian, and for a colony of young "jiggers”
in his flesh. The feet of the hogs areao in
fested by these insects, that the animals
sever get fatter than an ordinary lathe.
Of the families that went ont with Hast
ings. ouly four remain at the settlement, the
rest having gone to Parias a first step to
wards getting back home.
Those that remain are the following.

Hernando de Soto, who had served with
Pizerro in Peru, having bean created Gov
ernor of Cuba, aad Adriantado of Florida,
fired by the example* of hit countrymen,
who had been eucceasful adventurers in
the New World, resolved to riak the vat
wealth he had acquired in an attempt to
conquer “a people whom ha believed to
possess more gold than ha had yet beheld
in South America.” Daisied by the magnifi
cent project, many of the flower of the
young nobility of Spain aad Portugal -sold
their patrimonies in order to obtain means'
for equipping themselves to join the expedi
tion which held out such flattering hopes.
The story of the adventures of these bold
spirits iu Florida, Georgia, and west' of the
Mississippi, has been well told by several
writers, whose sources of information were
manuscript journals, kept by thoa who
shared in all the dangers and toils of the
enterprise.
DeSoto destroyed an immense number of
Indian* in all the territory through which
he passed, except that which constitutes
the preeeal State of Georgia. Ths Mus
cogee having heard that this regioa
almost depopulated, resolved to possess
themselves of it. Hither they bent their
course, and found more inhabitants then
they expected, but subdued all the tribes
in their path. They seem/however,to have
had a large share of intellect and sagacity;
and, like the ancient Romans, they added
to their power, by admitting to the rights
of citizenship the narionB they oonquered.
Thus in the course of years, they united
with themselves the Alabama*, whom they
had pursued eo far, aud so unrelentingly,
and, pushing across Georgia, even to the
spot where the city of Auguste now stands
on the very site of which they built a town,
they reduced and took under their govern
ment the Uchees, theTuhawbathees.Natch-
ee, Hillchitees. Seminolee, etc.
Thus was formed the powerful Creek
Confederacy, which took its name from the
great number of email streams with whichita
country abound*.
The Big Warrior of thie great a ctioa,in
1822, while conversing with the Missionary,
Compere, went still farther hack thaa the
conquest of Mexieo. end declared that the
Muscogees came from Asia, crossing the
Pacific, landing near tha Isthmus of Darien,
and then pursuing the course spokes of
above. He concluded with the following
language: “My ancestors were e great peo
ple. After, they reached the waters of the
Alabama, and took poesesioi of all this
country, they went farther—conquered the
tribes upon the Chattahoochee, and upon
all the rivers from thane* to th# Savannah
—yes, and evan whipped th* Indian*, then
living in the Territory of Seath Carolina,
and wrested much of their country from
them.”
While upoa th* subject of these Indiana,
I may as well mention, that Jams* Adair a
man of muoh learning, end sequoia h
the Hebrew language,, eontendeted with
others, that the Creeks were a portion of
the lost tribes of Israel. He deeoted nearly
two hundred pages to an attempt to prove
the truth of this theory, which he derives
from a real or supposed similarity ia lan
guage, easterns, csremoniee, etc., between
the Jews and the Indians ia question. He
says that he has heard the .Indian priests
calling on the “Great Spirit,’" while others
responded, “Hallrin! Hallelu!” or “HaHfo
lay ah! Ilalleluyah!” Abraham Mordeeai, a
Jew who lived for a long time among the
Indians, states that he has heard them ex
claim, “Yavogoha! Yavogona!” and he sup
pose* that they meant Jehovah,or the “Great
Spirit.”
AU speculation aside, wekaow that Couf
saponakeeso, the niece of Brim, the great
Micro or Emperor of the Creek Confedera
cy, was, about tha yaiT 1700 at Cowataueh
or, as it is now spelt Coweta—the due-
town of the Creek Nation, oa the Chatta
hoochee river. When she was ten. years
old, her father eairied her to , Pou[
South Carolina, where she was baptised
and educated. In 171fi war broke out be
tween the Indians end South Carolinians,
and an unela of Cousaponakeeso, named
Chiehili, headed a band of Creeks, who ad-
vanosd on Stono river. The Yemeeiees,who
were engaged in the war, having been de
feated in a battle with Governor Craven,the
Creeks retired from the contest. Cousapon
akeeso, who had been christened by the
name of Mary.aecompenied her unele in
his retreat from South Carolina, audresumed
the habits of the Indians, whieh she had
laid aside during her sojourn among the
white* of South Carolina.
In 1716 ths Governor of South Caruli-
ra, finding that the Creeks, though notac-
tnellr engaged in war, still entertained feel
ings rather hostile to the white* despatched
Col. John Musgrove to make a treaty with
them. Young John Mnsgrove accompanied

Nearly a year elapsed, aud Cousapona

and strengthening the influence they had so

almost exclaim, “My right there is none to

and stream; although, in point of fact. Pom-
oehichi wee thereat chief of the Yamar raws

white settlement south of the Savannah
that roamed over that vast territory, as well
a* most of those that resided in South Caro
lina. But tha time had come when Europe
ans were to assert a claim'even over that
extensive,solitude in which th* Creeks had
never before been disturbed—for it was af
ter DeSoto had passed through tha country
that the Creaks first existed, as a nation.
The 13th of January, 1733, saw the Aun

end finally persuaded them t* give their

“became at a ace the friend of tbs cailony,
guarding it* interests, relieving he neceaei
ties, standing ae mediator between the pal*
and the red man, calming the uneasiness of
th* on* aad repressing th* excitement of
th* other."
Tore* years afterwards, Couiipoaakeeeo
lost her beloved husband. He appear*
have been e truly excellent man, who used
th* influeec* he had obtained over the Indi
ans, both for their good and that <d‘ the
whita mao; and, ie this respect, his course
stood out in strong contrast with that ef th*
large majority of ths Europeans wka, by
residence, or otherwise, ware able to uontrol
the early struggles
th* aborigine** during t
of th* colonist*.
The southern part of
part of th* province was to
be fortified, end it wee proposed t* Mary
Musgrove to establish a trading post oa the
Altamaha, ia order that the Indians might
be induced to leave the vicinity of Savan-
■ah, that th* eouthern frontier might be
strengthened, end that she might be near
Frederica, where Oglethorpe frequently
needed her service* ae interpreter, or in the
higher capacity of friend and counsellor.
She mad* the establishment’in the locallity
indicated, end named it Mount Venture.
Captain Jacob Mathews, who had
been appointed by Oglethorpe to command
a small garrison at this place, conceived an
affection for the still graceful and amiabl
Indian woman, and, after a short courtship,
he was united to her in matrimony.
At this time, the Spaniards of Florida,
and,through their influence, the Indians of
the same section, were at deadly hostility
with the English colonies, and the entire
southern frontier of Georgia was constantly
exposed to th* most sarage and frequent
attacks. It was then that Mary Musgrove
stood between the Georgians and u< ter de
struction, for she persuaded ths Creeks to
remain faithful in their friendship to Ogle
thorpe, and thus th* settlement was saved.
Th* General’s opinion of the value of her
services and friendship, may be gathered
from the following passage written by him
at Durham, England, Nov. 13th, 1745: “I
find,” said he, “there is th* utmost endeav
or by the Spanish faction to destroy her, be
cause she is of consequence, and in he,
King's interest; therefore, it is the business
of th* King’s friends to support her; be
sides which,I shall be desirous to serve her
out of the frieudahip she has always shown
me, aiwell as to the colony.”
__ In 1742, Captain Mathaws fall sick, and
went to Savannah, accompanied by his wife,
where he died in June. Daring Mary’s ab
sence, the Yemassees seized the opportunity
and utterly destroyed her trading poet at
Mount Venture, thus depriving her of the
frnits of several years' exertion.
There resided in' Savannah, at thia time,
a Mr. Thomas Bosomworth, who had been
appointed Indian agent, and with whom,
consequently,Mary had official business.
This man had received a good education,
aadhaving prepared himself for th* Mitus-
try,afterwards went to England, where he
took holy orders, an was selected by the
Trustees to return to Savannah.
Mary’s firat and second husband* were
estimable men, but her fast proved himself
to be ambitious, malignant, avaricious and
utterly devoid of principle; and it appears
from history, that he succeeded in entirely
transforming his wife from a lovely, amia
ble, kind-hearted teoman to a hideous, re-
vengful/druaken tmtaw. Of course she
must hare inherited many of tha strong
passions of her.race; but the humanising
effect of het early education in South Caro
lina, and the ealntary influence of Mui-
grove and Mathews snhdned and kept them
down, allowing th* good sentiments which
are said to exist, in company with the bad.
in the bosom of. th* red man, *o assert
themselves; and maintain the ascendancy.
As, up (o this time, aha had been the *
and strongest friend of the colony, now
aad Boeomworth were'to be, fore time, its
most dangerous and powerful enetuli
Unfortunately, too, Mary had been treat
ed with injustice, as regarded tlw salary
of one hundred pounds sterling, which had
been promised her by Oglethrop for her
services as interpreter and agent,
agreed upon was by no means too Urge, con
sidering the importance of the wot k she per
formed, in holding the Indians in cheek
.during a long series of years, when they
might have risen at any moment and mas
sacred every white persons in the province.
Bat up to 1743 she had been paid only
about two hundred pounds, or one thousand
dollars, aod it was natural that she should
feel somewhat uneasy and indignant on this
account. Oglethorpe, of eonrse, had not
th* means of discharging the debt, and
those who held th* purse strings bad failed
in their duty. She, however, had full con
fidence in those who managed the affairs of
the colony, and would never have attempted
to obtain her dues by iorce, but for the
baleful influence of Bosomworth. This
reverend scoundrel won over to his schemes
Lieutenant Col Heron, Major Horton, and
other officers of the regiment statiosed at
Frederica, by taking advantage of the jeal
ousy which existed between them and the
civil officers, the chief of whom resided at
Savannah. Abraham Bosomworth, broth
er to th* clergyman, was seat by Colonel
Heron, without authority, too, for the oivil
1
officers only were allowed to act in such
matters, with the ostensible object of bright
ening the chain of friendship between the
whites and Indians, which, it is alleged, we*
growing dull. The real object wee to **-
cure tlie cooperation of the Indian traders,
in the plans of Thomas Bosomworth. At
-the same-time representation* were mad*by
Colonel Heron to the Duke of Newcastle,
then at thehead of eolsnial affair* ia Eng
land, in favor of th* Boeomworth*
In Dec. 1747, a body ef Indians, into
the command of Mala tehee, went te Fred
erica and on the 7th day of the month had
a great talk with the commander a* that
place, when they declared, among other
things, that the whole nation would abide
by whatever Mary Boeomworth ahonld do
and in case of her death would pay the
same regard to her husband. Col. Heron
agreed to send Abraham Boeomworth to
England—and afterwards did so—to obtain
justice for the Indian;. AU these confer
ences and acts of Col. Hero* were iUegal,
as already declared. But the Indians pro-
seeded still further. Iastigated by Bosom-
worth, they went through something like a
coronation of Malatehee, after whieh fifteen
Indians, assuming to themselves authority,
as chiefs, to speak for th* whole Creek Na
tion, pledged themselves, in a written intern
ment witnessed by Heron and others, to
recognize and standby th* said Mafatchae,
es their “rightful and natural Prince.”
The* th* wily hypocrite Boeomwerth
drew up a deed from “Malatehee Opys
Mico emperor of the Upper aad Lower
Creek nations, to Thomas and Mary Benom-
worth,oftbe celony of Georgia, for and ia
consideration ef ten pieces of straad, twelve
pieces of duffels, two hundred weight of
powder, two hundred weight of lead, twen
ty gun*, twelve pair ef pistols, and oa*
hundred weight of vermiliox, werrtettiej;
end defending, to the said Thomas *w
Mary, *U those tracts of land, known by th*
name* of Hnssoope, nr Olsabaw, Cowleygee,
er St. Catherines, and Sapelo Island*, with
their appurtenmnoes. etc., f f as long as
the sun shall shine, or tha waters rua ia the
rivers, forever.'
About this time, th* regiment that had
been statiosed at Frederiaa was diatomdsd,
or, a* tbs Indians expressed it, “tha
wall was broken down," and thia was sea
side red by Bosomworth and wifa,a favorable
opportunity for enforcing their eiaime. Ia
July, 1749, with a hate of warriors, they
marched on Savannah, where the militia
had been jnte under arms, and tha baa* pos
sible arrrageaent made for defaaca, ia
of a collision. Captain Nobio Joasa, te the
head of a troop of boras, mat th* Indians
outside of th* tows, and, with • bold frost,
ordered them to halt and ground their arma,
for not a eingla armed Indian ahoald sate

from being satisfactory. Howewar this may

ou th* (treat to prevant utter auaikilatioa,
while ths women and children being afraid
to remain alone in th* houses,also throngad
the sidewalks, added to the terror aud tur
moil.
It was rumored that President Stephens’
head had been cut off, and it was with the
utmost difficulty that the militia eould be
preranted from firing upon the Indian*and
thus risking a general masscre, from those
who were so much superior iu numbers.
Believing that Thos. Bossomworth
the chief instigator of th* hostile conduct
of the Indiana, th* authorities boldly ar
rested him and his brother Abraham, who
was with him, in the very presence of th*
warriors. The President anxious, if passi
ble, to conciliate the savage* than invited
them to go to. his house to take a glass
wine and talk over their troubles; but just
as they arrived at th* door, Maty, who
was absent when her husband was arrested,
earns np raving aad attempted, by th* moat
violent language, to arouse the
of
the Indians, and threatening iastant death
to the President and assistant* “You

yonr General and hi* traatia* A % for
your General. You hav* aot a foot of
land in the colony;” a&d stamping imperi
ously on the ground, she exclaimed, “This
very earth is mine.” She was immediately
placed in confinement; bat oa her appa
rently repenting and making promises, with
her husband of future good conduct,
was afterwards released.
A week passed, the Indians still prefl
ing about the street* sullea and threaten
ing, to th* oonstaat dread of fa* iahabi-
tanta. At tha endof that tiam Mary gave
way to another fit of frernay, hareagiag the
bad men, to tha iminent danger of the eiti-
zeni, and was again arretted. Th* Ia
dians seized their arms for a resexe, red it
seemed now impossible to avert the eolliaio*
which must end ia the murdwr of all the
citizens. Once more did Noble Jons*, at
the head of his troop, with admirable oour-
agoand ooblaea* thundar forth hi* ardtts
to “lay down your arm*!” Ha bravary
again overawed the savages, who could aot
withstand hii commanding ton*, and they
became quiet, while their prince* waapleeed

Thus? oa two oceasinoi did the gallant

They were completely humbled; and, on
again making the moat solemn promises *f
-good behavior for the friture, they ware
eased for the last time; the presents that
had been sent over from England ware dis
tributed; the Indians took up their march
for- their foreet homes on the 19th of Au-
juet; and Savannah, with a deep sigh of ro-
iaf, breathed freely onee more.
From th* time th* idea of obtaining
thair demands by force was abandoned by
the Boeomwortbi, and the virtue of law
and representation to th* home government
alone, was relied on. A memorial to the
King had bean sent to England by advice
of Lient Col. Heron. Again were presents
brought for the Indians, and order* were
issued to appoint two agents—sue from
South Carolina and one from Georgia—for
their distribution. The one nouiaated oa

Bosomworth—and it this there sums to

those who mad* the nomination, for it was
natural that, he should be iaeliaed to give
an undue share to his brother Thomas* vifa.
The agent for Georgia refused to give hi*
consent to the iniquitous scheme, aad the
Bosomworth* were again disappointed.
In 1754,the indefatigable couple made
voyage to Englud, and laid their claims
before the Lords Commissioners far trade
and plantntiow* Th* matter aro*aapae|

however, turned it over to the Board of

fa* Gevernor and Council at variance, en
deavored to tern fao faet to account by ad-
dnasisg kimaelf axelosivelj to th* former,
who tent th* case to Mr. Clinton, Attorney
General, for an opinion. Thi* gentleman
ilnolarti that th* justice of the claim* should
be tried by a jury aad court of law. About
fail time, however,Governor Reynold*,Wa»
superseded by Governor Ellis, wbo, veiy
wisely,undertook to settle the affair by com
promise. Tk# applicant* ware wenry of their
fruitless suits,and they proposed to sell their
clmium on Otoabaw aad Sapelo Mands^nd
fa* tract between Savannah and Pipe-ma
ker’* creek, to the Government for £300;
St. Catharine’* Island,on which they resi
ded,was reserved and secured by a grant
from the King.
Governor Ellis informed the Board at
home that he considered the terms rather
exorbitant,hut th* King alio had grown
weazy of the long continued suit, and.in th#
enmmar of 1759,th* Governor received in
structions, dated April 22d, 1758, to settle
the whole affair on the following basis: Mrs.
Boeomworth’* claim of £450 for goods ex
pended in the King’* service ia 1747 and
1748, was admitted; (he wee to be paid her
•lary of £100 a year, for sixteen and a
half year*, and her claim to St. Catharine’s
bland was to be confirmed; while she was
1 to surrender her Claims on Ossabaw and
Sapelo,whieh islands, indeed, had been ced
ed by the Indians to the King' before, but
possession had not been taken of them, on
eeeount of the caveat of Boeomworth. The
money to pay the salary, and the other aum,
was to be raised by selling these two islands
and the Pipe-maker's creek tract. An auc
tion *te had, at whieh the last mentioned
land brought £638, Ossabaw £1350, and
Sapello, £700.
