From thee, Eliza, I must go, And from my native shore ; The cruel fates between us throw A boundless ocean's roar: But boundless oceans, roaring wide Between my love and me, They never, never can divide My heart and soul from thee. Farewell, farewell, Eliza dear, The maid that I adore ! A boding voice is in mine ear, We part to meet no more. But the last throb that leaves my heart, While death stands victor by, That throb, Eliza, is thy part, And thine that latest sigh. I?I INCKLL A \ Y . [From the New-Yorker.] DANIEL BOONE. From a memoir of this celebrated pio neer, w e learn that on the firstdav of May, 1757, he left his home, on the Yadkin River, in North Carolina, in quest of the Country of Kentucky, in company with John Finley, John Stuart, Joseph Holden, James Monay, and William Cool. June 7, they reached Red River, and trom the top ol an eminence saw the beautiful valley of the Kentucky River.— Here they encamped and hunted. They saw bulfaloes in numerous herds, brows ing on the leaves of the cane and the her bageof the prairies, or clustering in amaz ing numbers round the Salt Licks. Dec. 44. Boone and another of the com pany were captured by the Indians, near the Kentucky River, about sunset, the savages rushing out upon them from a cane-brake. That night, however, the Indians being fast asleep, Boone awoke his companion,and they made their escape. On returning to the camp, they found that during their absence it had been plun dered by the Indians, and their comrades put to flight. Not long after this, a brother of Daniel Boone, with another adventurer, happened by some fortunate chance to find their way to their camp. Daniel Boone’s com rades wasshortly after slain by the Indians, and the comrade of this brother was kill ed by wolves. Thus the two brothers were left alone in a wilderness of wild beasts and savages, manv hundred miles from their homes. They occupied them selves in hunting, and building a small lint to shelter them from the rigors of the approaching winter. May 1, 1770. Daniel Boone’s brother returned home for a reinforcement of horses and ammunition—leaving him m the moan time alone, without bread or salt, horse or dog. The thoughts of his w ife and family, and the tiiixiety which they would feel for his safety, would have disposed him to melan choly; hut the beauty of the country ! around him and the occupation of hunting [cheered his mind and dispelled every ; gloomy reflection. [ At the close of the day in one of these [hunting expeditions, he had gained the j summit of a commanding ridge. The [winds were all hushed: not a leaf stirred; jail was calm and silent. Below him he ; beheld boundless plains and delicious val leys stretching away as far as the eye could reach, softened by the mellow beams of the setting sun into a voluptuous repose, and fading away like a dream of poetry in the distant perspective. 011 one hand the iOhio rolled in silence; on the other moun tains lifted their summits aloft, and bathed them in the clouds. All nature was still. J Boone kindled a fire near a spring of 1 sweet water, and for his supper broiled ! the loin of a fat buck, which he killed a few hours before. The curtain of night | closed in. He could hear the yells ofsav f ages; he notwithstanding laid lumselt down to sleep, and so sound was his repose that : when he awoke in the morning the sun | was in the forehead of the eastern sky, and the birds were singing. After exploring an extensive tract of country, Boone returned to the old camp, which he was glad to find Imd not been dis turbed during bis absence. . lie did not, however, confine himself to [the camp, hut often reposed in thick cane brakes to avoid the savages, who often en tered the camp, as he supposed, but i'or [ tuuately always in his absence. | At this period ol his life, Boone says ■that.na city, with all attraction?,-could [have afforded him half the pleasure which [he took in beholding the native beauties jof that country. Daniel Boone’s brother [ returned July 47. March, 1771. He returned home to bring out his family to what seemed to ! him a paradise on earth. He found his | family doing well, sold his farm on the j Yadkin, and, September 45, 1774, started for Kentucky, with five families in company. lAt I’owell’s Valley, a sort of outpost of j civilization, they were joined by forty men. They then crossed Powell s Mountain,and [ were approaching the Cumberland Range, when, on the 10th day of October, the rear of their party was attacked by the Indians, who killed six and wounded one of their party. Among the slain was a son of Boone. During the rencontre, the Indians contrived also to scatter their cat tle; hut they were repulsed. The abrupt cliff’s, craggy ramparts and gloomy gorges of these mountains are so wild as to fill the mind with horror. After this attack of the Indians, Boone’s party returned, much disheartened, to a settlement on Clinch River, where he re mained with his family until June 0, 177-1, when he and another person were solicit ed by Gov. Dunmore, of Virginia, to con duct a party of surveyors to the Falls of Ohio.—This tour of 800 miles Boone performed on foot in 62 days. On his return, Gov. Dunmore gave him the com mand of three garrisons in the campaign against the Shawnese. March, 1775. He attended the treaty of Wataga with the Cherokees. Next lie undertook to mark out a road to Kentucky. While engaged at this work, his men were twice attacked by the Indians, who killed 4 and wounded 5. This was within 15 miles of what is now Boonesborough. April 1. He began to erect a fort at Boonesborough. On the 4th the Indians killed one of his men. On the 14t!i, Boone returned to Clinch, where he had left his family, and brought them to the fort. His wife and daughter were sup posed to he the first white women that stood on the hanks of the Ohio. Dec. 44. Indians killed one of his men and wounded another. July 15, 1776. They took his daughter prisoner. Me pursued them, killed two Indians, and recovered his daughter. 17 77. Boone and his people suffered much from the attacks of the Indians. Feb. 7, 1778. While hunting, he was taken prisoner by 104 Indians and 4 Frenchmen, who took him to Old Cliili cothe, the principal Indian town on the Little Miami, w here they arrived Feb. 18. March 18. lie was conducted to De troit, w here he was treated with humanity by Gov. Hamilton, uiut nllWml the In dians <4IOO for him; hut they valued their prisoner too much to let him go. Several gentlemen at Detroit, touched at his mis fortune, volunteered to assist him; but Boone declined their generous offers, on the ground that it would never be in his power to requite their kindness. April 10. 'Fhe Indians started back with him to Old Cliilicotlie, where they arrived on the -45111. Here, lie says, he spent lib time as comfortably as lie could expect, being adopted into an Indian fami ly, and treated as one of the tribe, lie was exceedingly familiar and friendly with them, always appearing as contented and cheerful as possible; and they put great confidence in him. 11c often went hunt ing with them, and frequently gained their applause for his skill at their shooting matches. However, lie was careful not to excel many of them in shooting, for no people arc more envious in this sport, lie could observe in their countenances and gestures the strongest expressions of joy when they had the advantage, and of chagrin when hr had. The Shawnee Chief took much notice of him, and treated him with profound re spect and entire friendship, often permit ting him to hunt at his liberty. He often returned with game, part of which he al ways gave to tire Chief in token of hom age. His food and lodging were in common with then)—rough and hard indeed; hut such necessity made acceptable. June I. Boone was taken to the Salt Spring on Scioto, and there lie was ten days employed iri manufacturing salt.— During this time, ho limited with the In dians, and found the soil about this river better than that of Kentucky. On his re turn to Chilicothe, he found one Hundred ijwii fifty Indians, painted and armed rea dy to march against Boonesborough. June 18. Before sunrise, he stole off securely and reached Boonesborough on the twentieth—a journey of one hundred and sixty miles, during which he had only one meal. A number of skirmishes succeeded, and at length the fort at Boonesborough was summoned to surrender, by Captain Du quesne, at the head of four hundred and forty-four Indians. Boone requested two days’ consideration, and in the meantime brought in through the posterns all the horses and cattle they could collect. He then informed the commander of the In dians that the fort would not he surrender ed while there was a man left to defend it. They then proposed a treaty. Boone was still suspicious of the Indians; nccord ingly the treaty w as held within sixtv yards from the fort. The articles were agreed to and signed, when the Indians told us that it was their custom for two Indians to shake hands with every white mall in the treaty. Bootie agreed. The Indians imme diately grappled to take Boone and his men prisoners, but they extricated tlicni- | selves, though surrounded by hundreds of I the savages, and made good their retreat i to tl»e fort, with the exception of one man ,wouaded by a lire from the enemy, t The enemy then undertook to under mine the fort, hut being discovered and countermined, they raised the siege, Au gust 10, having killed two and wounded four ol Boone’s men and carried oil’ a ! number of cattle. The loss of the Indians j was thirty-seven killed and more wound ed. Boone’s people picked up one hun dred and twenty-five pounds of their bull ets, besides what stuck in the logs of the ' I’ort. j In 1780, Boone went hack to North ;( arolina for his wife and children, for j j during liis captivity, his wife, thinking he I had been killed hv the Indians, had re- 1 turned to her father's house transporting! the children and goods on horses through! j the wilderness, amidst many dangers. [ After settling again at Boonesborough, l i Boone went with his brother to the Little 1 Licks; and on their return Boone’s hroth !or was shot by the Indians. They also 1 I pursued him by the trail of a dog, which , he shot, and thus escaped. August H, 1784. One hundred and | I seventy six whites under Boone and three! other officers, were defeated near the | Blue Licks, with the loss of sixty-seven ; men—the other three officers in command being taken prisoners, and Boone’s sec-i ond son slain. Bootie was twice made prisoner by the i Indians, had two sons and a brother kill- , ed by them, and a daughter carried away j captive. They robbed him at. different j times of forty horses and many cuttle.! “Many dark and sleepless nights lie spent,! i separated from the cheerful society of | man, scorched by the summer’s sun and 1 I pinched by the winter’s cold, an instru | ment ordained to settle the wilderness.'’ A srnuKN nr.ATii and singular kami- J l i.—A Mr. Jeremiah Bacon died sudden- 1 ly, near Bridgeton, New Jersev, a few , days since, under somewhat singular cir- j j eumstanccs. lie fell dead, while in the j i art nfpumfmg anmo inlw, ~...l witU i of his hands still resting on the pump handle. The Bridgeton Chronicle gives the fol j lowing particulars in relation to this indi vidual and ol the extraordinary family of which he was a member:— j “Tic subject of this notice was, we l i believe, one ol the oldest native inhabit-1 i ants ii Hopewell township, and with an other brother and two sisters, had resided I |on the estate left them by their father,! .ever since his death, which was many yearsngo, very much in the same way as j i the sen’s, lie being found dead in the field! iThe family in the recollection of the old est inhabitants, had always been singular. T"licit affairs were conducted by the de cease:! sister, who died last spring. And, altlioigh they lived like savages, the love of money was strong within them; the only pleasure they seemed to enjoy was hoard ing up their earnings. The brother and j sister now living are incapable of protect-j , ing taemselvcs; for twenty years lie has j j been suffered to rove in the woods in a stateof perfect nudity, and, when the crav-j j ings of appetite impelled, would return to | the house to satisfy his hunger, and in the; jmoriing, flee again to his hiding places, ! being seldom, if ever, seen by the nearest j neignbors. 'Fhe overseers ol' the town- \ j ship finding it necessary since the death of Jeremiah, to take charge of them and ! thei - effects, he was pursued and taken. i He vas thinly covered with hair, some-, | u ha. resembling the coat of a very old opos- I sum. and stoutly resisted every effort to ; | clothe him, and for several days refused j to t at any thing. I “On examining their miserable abode, j which was scarcely lit for decent swine to live in, there was found in an old chest, almost without lid or lock, twelve lmit icl red dollars in. specie, two hundred in j gooff bank paper, besides a quantity ot j bank notes converted into mice nests, so I effectually destroyed as not to admit of an estimate of their denominations or value, and several small stuns of money have | since been found on the premises, and doubtless more remains hidden that will never lie discovered. Since the suspen sion of specie payments they have sold nothing, having an utter abhorrence of shiiiplasters. The cattle and hogs on the farm have been two or three times fatten ed. In the cellar were found several hogs heads of wheat, nearly destroyed by the I rats, which were numerous, and so veno j mons as almost to dispute the possession ) with tire owners! Their property will I probably amount to six or seven thousand dollars, and the only grief manifested by ! the survivors was that their money was to i he taken from them. “Such is an imperfect sketch of this wonderful family; which, although living | within two miles of the village of Bridge ‘ton, seems to be as unknown as if their residence had been in Iowa!- A parallel circumstance, in all its parts, we think, 1 cannot he found in the I nitcil States Russian manners, 170 years ago. In the latter part of the seventeenth century, a French traveller in Russia wrote that j “most men trei#their wives as a necessary evil, regarding them with a proud and ; stern eye, and even beating them after.” Dr. Collins, physician to the Czar in 1070, as an evidence of the progress of civilizn : tion in Russia, says, that the custom of tying up wives by tile hair of tile head, and (logging them, begins to he left off; ac- | ; counting lor it, however, by the prudence I of parents, who made a stipuiative provi-! : sion in the marriage contract, that their daughters were not be whipped, struck, j kicked, etc. But even in this improved i ! state of society, one man “put upon his ! wife a shirt dipped in ardent spirits, and 1 burnt her to death,” and was not punish-' ed, there being, according to the doctor, 1 “no punishment in Russia for killing a wife or a slave.” When no provision ! was made in the marriage contract, he i says, they were accustomed to discipline: their wives very severely. At the mar-, riage, the bridegroom had a whip in one boot, and a jewel in the other, and the \ poor girl tried her fortune by choosing.< “If she happens upon the jewel,” says j another traveller, “she is lucky; but if on ! the whip, she gets it." 'J'lie bridegroom j rarely saw his companion’s face till after j the marriage; it is said, “if she be ugly, | she pays for it soundly, may he the first time he sees her.” Ugliness being punish- j ed with the whip, the women painted to j I great excess, and a traveller in 10*30 saw I the grand duchess and her ladics.oll horse-1 hack astride, “most wickedly (repainted.” 1 The day after a lady had been nt an cn- ! tertainment, the hostess was accustomed to ask how she got home; and the polite [answer was “your ladyship’s hospitality made mo so tipsy, that 1 don’t know liovv I got home.” And for the climax of their barbarity—it can scarcely he be lieved, but it is recorded as a fact—the 'women did not begin to wear stays till tire i beginning of tire present century !

Reckless ami dissipated as he was, lie was not quite so bad as the) j Quarterly Review, in its dissection of] I Barry Cornwall’s Life, would have the [ world to believe. 11 is form had tint “lost | all its original brightness”—for Kean was . undoubtedly horn a man of genius. Ilis 1 conception of character and knowledge !of pictorial effect—quick brilliant, and l j overpowering—was a light from heaven, | not picked up behind the scenes. lie did [ all lie could to quench it by intemperance, j hut something remained to the last. 1 I could not help indulging in something like sympathy for the wayward actor, as ! last summer— ‘ Youth at tin- prow, and pleasure nt the helm*— ! 1 sailed past the wild and beautiful shores' of the Isle of Bute, where Kean had built, | a handsome villa. The captain of the! ! steamer was full of anecdotes of him. ! Here, amidst gay friends and spirits of; j kindred mould, the tragedian loved to! 'luxuriate. With these conversing he lor- j , got all time, and defied managers’ frowns j and prompters’ calls. His associates; i were chiefly brother performers, and lib | conversation of players and plays. Very! often, however, a visit to Kean nt Bute was literally a service of life and death. ; Ilis guests were completely at his mercy: 1 1 for they could not get away til! a ship j j came; and when the wassail-cup flowed [brightly, and the festivities ran far into ’ the night, the tragedian .sometimes became unmanageable, and glasses and bottles | flew ab'out as thick as arrows at Chevy Chaco. Some of his histrionic friends ! were celebrated and envied for the dexteri ty with which they evaded these missives, j hut others were often surprised in mo ments of danger, Ke-WAJ/ivpd tivlv,gran diloquent. “Hang out the banner on the i castle wall,” he would exclaim, and up ! went a tattered ensign in front of the villa, j !streaming like a meteor, as a beacon to! I the steamboat. “Bring in the tenantry,” j said he one evening to his servant, by ! way of furnishing forth an entertainment I to Ryder, Chippendale, and some of his 1 comrades—his “fellows,” '“When days were dark, and friejids were few.’ The tenantry were brought in—two starv ed looking Highlanders, with blue bonnets j [on their heads —and they answered thei unmeaning interrogatories of their lofty j landlord. Such “fantastic tricks” beguil ed the evening till deeper excesses set in. Next morning there was a profusion of i apologies, kind words, and friendly hos pitality; but if quarrels had taken place, there not mi frequently remained scars as indelible as the blood spot on Lady Mac beth’s hand. The Milledgevillc papers announce the death of the Hon. John G. Polhiil, Judge of the Ocmulgee Circuit. He died on the 40th of August, in Cass County. [TERMS *3 IN ADVANCE. NUMBBR26. ■ ✓ j Rev. Zabpiel Adams.— The Norfolk Advertiser furnishes the following anec dote relating to this eccentric divine: 1 “At the time of the Concord fight, not I far distant from Lunenburg, in which town he was settled, many went as sol diers, to repel the enemy; the terror was 1 very great and general; on the following j Sabbath, many notes were offered asking prayers for protection of fathers, brothers, [and near friends, which in addition to j notes for sale deliverance, ordinary sick ness, et cetera, made a pile before the Rev. gentleman, of no inconsiderable size. In the country it is common prudence for the ! officiating clergyman to run his eye over the notes, and see if all is as it should be. [ Mr. Adams, seeing that he had a job be fore him, gave the singers a hymn of ten verses, that he might have time to read the notes—hut before half through, tohis ; surprise, the singers were out of work, and the whole congregation was staring him in the face. In this dilemma, the Rev. divine concluded to make short work of the matter, and instantly seizing the whole bundle, with both hands, presented them in a mass, saying—“Brethren, here are more than forty people that desire yOur prayers for all sorts of things.” Printers’ Devils. — There are two ac counts of the origin of this title. One of them says there was one Mons. Leville, or D’vilie who came over with William the Conqueror, in company with -De Launc, De Van, De Val,De Aslnvood, Do Utfrne, D’Umpoing, &c. A descendant of this Monsieur Deville, in the direct line, was taken by the famous Caxton,in 1471; who, proving very expert, became afterwards his apprentice and in time an eminent printer; from him the orders of printers’ Devillcs, or devils took their names. The other account says, if they took it from infernal devils, it was not because they were messengers frequently sent in darkness and appearing as scoffers would suggest, but upon a very reputable account; for John Post, or Faustus, of Mcntz, in Germany, was the first invent or of the art of printing, which art so sur prised vUo world that they thought him a i conjuror, and called him Df. Faustus, and his art the black art. As he kept a eon [ stant succession of boys to run errands, who were always very block, some of whom being raised to be his appreatices, and afterwards raising themselves in tho world, lie was very properly said to have raised manv a devil. Plf.asant Neighbors. —The little sto ry w e are about to relate is a fact, and we are, furthermore, in possession of names and numbers. At a highly respectable boarding-house in this city resides a young wife, whose husband is absent. Her child, like all children, will sometimes cry. The other morning, a Indy, residing in the house adjoining, sent in a message by a colored servant, stating that if the child again cried, it would be complained of as a nuisance! The message, to a family with which the polite sender is not even on speaking acquaintance, is worthy of inser tion in tire next edition of “Etiquette for Ladies.”—[N. Y. Sun. Newspaper Literature.—Of the char | actor of the intelligence furnished by the early English nevvpapers, many amusing i examples might be given: from the one subjoined we may safely infer that a smack | of the miraculous was nothing uncommon in their columns. It is an extract from I the A Tsrcurius Democritus, published in 1653, and runs thus:— | A pefect mermaid was by the last great ! winds, driven ashore neere Greenwich, with her combe in one hande, and her ' looking glass in the other.— She seemed to be of the countenance of a most fatre land beautiful woman, with her arms cross ed, weeping out many pearly dropsofsalt , tear, and afterwards she gently turning i herself upon her back, again, swamrao away without being seen auy more. , Silk Cultlte. —We lay the following ( interesting article before our readers, for ! the purpose of calling their attention to the production ol silk: , ~ t j An acre of land planted with the morus inulticau/is, will give sufficient for « mil lion of silk worms; three thousand co coons will make one pound of raw silk; consequently, one million of qqoooos will make 333 1-4 pounds of raw. suk ; this raw .silk is worth therefore, an I acre of land devoted to the prodjjbtion of j silk must produce to its owner*sl,334. | From this, of course, must be deducted , the expense of interest on the value of the land, the purchase and planting of the mulberry trees, the property atte to j the soil, the necessary care ing the spinning season, the r»SGfeg of the silk, &.c. one half lhegroa*V|§jlfjririll [meet all expenses, and iqiltn libsrid pro vision for any pecuniary contingency; thus ' leaving the cultivator a clear profit upon , an acre of laud of s667.—{Phila.
