chimes in, and lastly, old .WockbircTg quick,
short bark announces the still hotter scent and
the fa3t approaching contest The trail
•doubles : —briskly and more briskly it is bea
ten until it arrives near the centre of the
swamp, when the next double, the rushing
sound of every tongue is heard in rapid concert
as from a thousand mouths. The game is up—
and the “full cry” shakes the still morning and
makes the forest ring!
As the delicious music neared my stand, I
forgot -the world in this all-absorbing song-
The cry passed my stand keeping deeply in
the swamp. The spurs and rein are given to
my charger, arid away he dashes clearing bush
and brake as he carried me to the upper end of
the swamp. Arriving there, I reined up quick
ly, and giving intense ear to the fast approach
ing hounds, awaited, with hand on trigger, the
bounding forth of the game. Suddenly the
cry ceases—every tongue is mute. The cause
is soon divined:—the keen-ear’d buck has
heard my headlong speed and has doubled.—
’Tis but a moment’s pause the long drawn
cry resumed, confirms the truth —and back
again my hunter flew to the first stand :—a mo
ment’s halt and the cry is heard rushing on
ward. No time is to be lost, and again I dash
over the level pine woods for half a utile, dou
ble a bay, and reins when again the
melodious cry greets my ear and comes direct
and rapidly. One hundred yards in advance
of the din of tongues, the bushes break as the
distinct jumps of the fugitive are heard—the
break' is now nearer, and the next moment,
with wide-branching horns,-spreading tail, and
a graceful bound, came forth as noble a buck
as ever left a track. As the now risen sui\cast
his long shadow on the open wood, he halted,
turned his wreathed head half back, and with
prick’d up ear, gave a last hearing to his keen
pursuers ere he redoubled liis speed over the
space to seek in a distant river.f His
pause was short. Unconscious of danger, on
lie came with long and lofty springs, merely
touching the earth at intervals of twenty feet,
as he shook the morning dew from his sides.
Within fifty yards, suddenly burst forth a white
wreath of smoke, and the woods resounded to
the discharge of my gun—the deadly messen
gers reach him while in his greatest elevation,
and the noble animal rolls upon the earth, and
tossing his head, struggles in vain to resume
his career. In a moment I was over him, and
with one hand upon his horn, the other started
the crimson flood of ebbing life from his throat
.as the knife passed through it W ith open
mouths and eager scent, came Rapid, Fleta and
Hornpipe, and with avidity, lapped the flowing
blood, whilst the still animated cry of the
other hounds receded. Then came the distant
sounds of Mind back! Mind back! from the
Driver, as the divided game hurried back from
the noise of my gun, and neared B.’s stand.—
The cry had parted ; and with anxious expec -
tation, I listened for the next sound. It came-
The report of B.’s gun relieved for one moment
the beautiful and constant cry. His second
barrel sent forth its mortal knell! The cry
ceased, and once More all was silent. I lis
tened breathlessly for another sound—that al
so came. One long blast from the horn came
clear and distinct to my ear; and long and far
was that blast echoed from wood to wood until
it died away to a plaintive moan in the dis
tance. The signal of triumph was sent back
from me. 1 proceeded tow ards B.’s stand, and
on a near approach, perceived, still hanging
over the green w oods, the light smoke of his
gun “which slowly ascended towards Heaven
like the grateful orisons of an humble heart.”
I found B. standing over the prostrate form of
<a sleek and magnificent buck—and pointing to j
me, I soon discovered a trail of blood upon the j
bushes, left by another deer jvhich had receiv
ed a wound before his unerring aim. Our
horns again sounded, and the hounds (now all
assembled) ran around and before us. As they
struck the bloody trail, their cry was raised,
and away they dashed “all in a long string.”
Flanking them on either side, we kept up at a
rapid gait and continued for half a mile when
the pack entered a string of ponds surrounded
by high palmetto. Here tlie cry came to a
dead balk, and with encouraging tones we kept
close to them. Suddenly the palmettos broke
violently, as with a desperate bound the buck
emerged from them: —Thereupon, a furious
yelling ensued and many mouths were grasp
ing at him. One glance shew that he was
“done upand without raising our guns we
pursued and raised the “DMHi whoop.” Three
long, low jumps brought the buck to a pond
about knee deep in water which he entered. —
Faltering at every leap, he became exhausted;
stopped, wheeled, and with flowing eyes, ant
lers leveled, and hair reversed, he faced his
many assailants:—they stopped not, but with
infernal riot charged in a body. One plunge
forward, brought the gallant buck in the midst
of them, and in a second more he was beneath
the discoloured foatn, and over him his hungry
conquerors howled and reveled with delight
With our bucks mounted before and behind,
we proceeded to our rendezvous, where we
found a basket well stored, and a cool spring.
Merrily did we discuss the stirring events of
the morning with a couple of warm friends who
joined us, and a more joyous day was seldom
known to mortals. RING WOOD.

The Convention of business men assembled
at Augusta on the 16th insL Ker Boyce, Esq.
of Charleston, was called to the Chair, and An
drew J. Miller, Esq. of Augusta, chosen Secre
tary. Delegates were present from South
Carolina, Georgia and Florida.
Hon. George McDuffie, of South Carolina,
was appointed Chairman of a Committee to
make report on the subject which had brought
them together. Mr. King, we notice, was a
member, as he is of a committee subsequently
appointed to address the people.
The Report of the committee is a very able
document, which we shall publish in our next
number. The greatest harmony and good
will prevailed in the deliberations of the Con
vention and nothing of a local nature appears
to have been introduced.
The Convention adjourned on the 18th, and
propose that there shall be another meeting in
April, 1838.
The citizens of Augusta gave a splendid
dinner to the members of the Convention on
the 20th. An account of which we extract
from the Sentinel:—
Dinner to the Members of the
Convention. Lust evening at six o’-
clock, a splendid Dinner was given at the !
Masonic llall, by the citizens of Augus

II is Honor the Mayor of the city presided, I
assisted by Gen. VV. VV. Montgomery,
Judge Holt, C. J. Jenkins, Esq. and John
Kerr, Esq. as V ice Presidents. A num
ber ot regular and volunteer toasts were
drank, amid the deafening applause ol
the very large and respectable company
present. A sentiment in honor ot Sooth
Carolina, called an eloquent response from
the distinguished and talented citizen of
that State, Gen. McDuffie. A sentiment
m honor of Georgia, called up Col. A.
11. Chappel of Macon, in a beautiful and ,
interesting speech. Coi. Arthur F, llayne
of Charleston, Col. Seaborn Jones of Co
jlumbus, Mr. Stiles of Savannah, Col.
| Thomas Butler King of Brunswick, Col.
John A. Cuthbert of Milledgeville, Mr.
Dearing of Athens, Col. E. Hamilton of
Macon, C. J. Jenkins of Augusta, and
Alex. Black, Esq. of Charleston, each
responded to sentiments in honor of their
respective cities. Col. Jno. H. Howard
of Columbus being called upon, addres
sed the; Company. The speeches were
listened to with the greatest attention and
called forth immense applause. The best
feeling prevailed. South Carolina and
Georgia were toasted and applauded over
and over again. The company was high
ly entertained by songs and stories inter
spersed with the toasts, and adjourned in
the best order at a seasonable hour. The
feeling which has animated the members
of the convention and others in attend
ance, is such as will carry triumphantly
through the great work of achieving the
commercial independence of the South,

theUmou to which her vast resources
have long since entitled her.—[Sent, of

The Steamer Home. The Charleston
Patriot makes some startling statements about
this ill-fated boat. She was considered un
safe on her first voyage and was so pronoun
ced by competent persons while on the stocks.
She was built from machinery that was
very poor. The Captain was intoxicated, so
as to be incapable of commanding and the
management of the boat was given to Capt.
Salters. A pubjic meeting had been called
in 'Charleston to investigate the particulars.
For the honor of humanity it is to be hoped
that these charges are unfounded.

Official. —The Court Martial which
convened at Gosport on the 10th of July,
for tire trial of Commander William Rain

The Court found Commander Ramsay

directed him to afford to Captains Wool

in another charge and specification.
The Court sentenced the accused “to
be reduced in rank, so as to be placed at
the foot of the list of commanders, as it
now appears on the Register of the Uni
ted States.”
But degrading a commissioned Officer,
and placing him at the foot of the list of
officers of his grade, being considered an
unusual, and in this case, improper pun
ishment, the sentence of the Court was
not approved, and Commander Ramsay
has been restored to duty.
