The Fixe Arts. It ia said that an ex tensive quary of statuary marble has been dis covered in the Cherokee Country. While mar ble is found in large quantities in every State, none has heretofore been discovered possessing the purity of color and fineness of grain requi site for the use of the sculptor. Mantle-pieces I and tomb-etones are manufactured very ex tensively from our native marbles,but nothing more. The discovery of this quarry, therefore, marks an era in the history of the Fine Arts in our country. The ancient Greeks were in debted to their' flue marble for their great su periority in the most exalted of the imitative arts. And to this cause we must ascribe in part, that delicate perception of the Athenians for the beautiful in forms. A quality in them improved, or perfected, by their continued efforts to body forth their conceptions, which they could not have done without the abun dance of marble. Notwithstanding the hurly burly, and commotion of our country, she has produced her share of sculptors, and we doubt not that with the facilities of obtain ing the material, we shall find many more. Greenough, a Bostonian, who has been for many years studyingthe masterpieces of Italy stands among the first of the age. Several of his groups have been exhibited in the Northern cities, and have received much praise from connoisseurs. Auger is another. He is a Connecticut man, who has received no aid from the study of Foreign Schools. His “Jephthah meeting his Daughter,” is considered a wonderful produc tion for an uneducated sculptor. Where he now is, we do not know. Hiram Powers is a young man from the West, of great genius. Without the slightest assistance from models or books, he has al ready acquired a celebrity, which will be in creased by his pilgrimage to Italy. lie has moulded clay busts of many distinguished men at Washington, and goes to Florence to prosecute his labors in the studio of Greon ough. Tiie specious prosperity of the few past years, though attended with much injury, has been favorable to the progress of the Fine Arts in America, which we hope will not depend on the rise or fall of stocks, nor the abundance or scarcity of money. The Aquatic Club of Gf.oruia. The challenge which this club published to the New York boatmen has never been noticed in any official manner. A gcntleman'of this city met some of the Whitchallers during the Sum mer, and learned from them that they would not consent to row against black servants; but if the gentlemen of Georgia would row their boat, the case would be different. The chal lenge of the Georgia Club, says nothing of the rowers, and the New Yorkers would have avoided the injury their reputation has suffer ed, had they made enquiries of the proper persons. We are authorized to say that the Lizzard shall be manned by gentlemen, who we warrant, shall be the equals of the Knick erbockers in bone and muscle, blood and breeding. Orders have been received by the Engineer of the Brunswick Canal and Rail Road Cos. to construct store houses at Brunswick and a pier on the Altamaha. In the mean time the Canal is progressing—the streets are opening and the town improving. A vessel is daily expect ed, having on board frames for houses and stores and before Christinas, Brunswick will present a busy scene. While many enterpris es commenced during the speculation epidem ic have fallen through, this Company compos ed of Boston merchants proceeds in its works without the remotest idea of abandoning or even suspending its works. Looking for ward to the establishment of a direct inter course between Georgia and Boston and re lving on the advantages of such a trade for their emolument, they have counted the cost before commencing and are not at all discour aged. A sale of lots will take place on the eighth of January next. At that time a large number of Northern gentlemen will attend with a view of locating themselves permanently in Bruns wick. Indian Powell and seventy or eigh ty warriors were taken prisoners at Fort Pey ton. They came in for the purpose of having “atalk.” Gen. Hernandez discovering they were determined not to leave the Territory on ariv conditions, instantly had them surrounded and taken. About the same number of negros came in a few days after. They belong to gentlemen of South Carolina and have been out since the first troubles. The schooner Wm. & Henry, touched here on Tuesday last for provisions. Sim has on board these ne gros on their way to Charleston. From this we may expect tiie Indian War draws to a ter mination at last. Melancholy. The body of a man was discovered yesterday in an old negro house on the road to Darien ferry. It has been identi fied as an Irishman by the mine of White who worked on the Canal last winter, and has since been working at Macon. He was on his way to Brunswick and complained to a negro he met on the road of being weak and sick.— He gained this old hovel and therfc died. Erratum. In our last, we recommended to an actor, afflicted with a propensity for writing rhym, to leave the Muses and stick to Thalia, Jjen we should have said Thespis. As for a wonder, he might be inclined to take our ad vice, we make the correction. Piracy. The ‘ packet ship Susquehanah, from Philadelphia for Liverpool, was captured off the Capes of Delaware, by a piratical ves sel. She is said to have had a large quantity of specie, and several passengers—for whose safety strong fears are felt The information comes from two pilots who may be relied upon. Texas. The Mexican Government has notified the United States that the ports ofGal veston and Brasos are in a state of blockade. The following beautiful lines are by Burns, but not to be found in the ordinary editions of his works. At the request of many of our friends, we have procured a copy from an ac complished gentleman, who sings the song with the taste of kindred genius. v Mary ! when the wild wind blows, And blasts the beauties o’ the rose, Thy coining fate to me it shows, And I could weep for Mary. Oft has the blossom decked the tree, Since first thy laughing tell-tale ce’ Confess’d a wee bit love for ine, And I was sniit wi’ Mary. Mary ! I ha’e lo’ed thee lang, Thou’rt ay the burden o’ 1113' sang, Baith day and night where'er I gang I think on naught but Mar}'. When sleep seals up my wearied ce' In dreams thy angel form I see, And in fond rapture sigh to thee 1 Oh dinna leave me Mary ! Mary ! when the world’s unkind And poverty throws me behind, I oft can cheer my drooping mind Wi’ thoughts o' thee sweet Mary : For were 1 sick and like to dee, Thy angel smile could comfort me— Then come what will my prayer shall be For happiness for Mary. Pimento tree, —One of the most val uable trees of Jamacia is the pimento, which flourishes spontaneously and in great abundance on the north side of the island, its numerous white blossoms mix ed with the dark green foliage, and with the slightest breeze diffusing around the most delicious fragrance, give a beauty and charm to nature rarely equaled, and of which he who has not visited the sha dy arbours, and profound groves of the tropics can have little conception. This lovely tree, the leaf of which, bruised, emits a fine aromatic odour, nearly as powerful as the spice itself, has been known to grow to the height of from thir ty to forty feet, exceedingly straight, and having for its base the spinous ridge of s> rock, eight or ten feet above the surface of the hill or mountain. A single tree will produce IYO oftherawor 100 pounds of the dried fruit. The indigenous for est and even exotic trees of Jamacia, grow to a prodigious height ; the palmet to royal is frequently found one hundred and forty feet ; the vast trunks of the Cu ba (wild cotton tree) and fig trees, often measure ninety feet from the base to the limbs, and the trunk of the former, when hollowed out lias formed a boat capable of bolding one hundred persons. There is a great variety of timber for agricultu ral and household purposes, and some ex quisitely beautiful cabinet woods. Female Society. “In the conversa tion, ol ladies,” says Flecnoe, a writer of Charles the second’s time, “as in an ac ademy, of virtue, I did learn nothing but goodness—saw nothing but nobleness, and one might as well be drunk in a christul fountain, as to have any evil thoughts whilst in their company, which I shall always remember as the happiest and innocentest part of my life.” W 001 the Nine.”— “Do you woo the muses, sir, the immortal nine ?” said a female exquisite one day to a fellow,who was pufliing a cigar. “I woo the long nine, ma’am,” was the brief reply.
