0 slay my love, my dearest swain
Why, from your Minim, will you fly,
Why tempt a t reach’rous raging main
On Mexie’a plains to bleed or die,
And leave utc here to weep and sigh !
Why should ambition tempt my love
To seek, in ileal h. an empty name,
Thy country's cull thy heart might move
To win a patriot's deathless fame
But, distunt lauds have no such claim.
Bnlif true love may nol detain
A lover from the bloody field,
Or if it prot e too wean a chain
To hold him : may it prove a shield
From swords that ruthless foemen wield.

FROM A LONDON TAPER.
ISADORE.
In the church-yard of * * * * there
js a grave covered with a plain slab
of white marble, with no other in
scription than i Isadore d’Freillo,
aged nineteen.’ These few words
speak histories to the I*art; they tell
of a beautiful flower withered, far
from its accustomed soil, in the spring
day of its blossom ; they tell the fate
of a young and unhappy stranger,
dying in a foreign country, remote
from every early association, her last
moments unsoothed by affectionate
solicitude no tender voice, whose
lightest sound breathed happy me
mories, no eye of fondness on which
the fainting mourner might look for ,
sympathy—lter very ashes separated ;
from their native earth,
“Might I not fancy myself a hero
of Action ?”—said Colonel Fitzallan, i
bending graceliilly as he caught the * ’
small while hand which had just ar- i
ranged his sling: “ Fair lady, hence- 1
forth I vow myself your true and lcye.l '
knight, and thus pledge my heart’s I
first homage!” pressing the yielding <
fingers gently to his lips. Alas, '
thought Is idore, while those eloquent T
interpreters of the feelings, a blush, !
sigh, and smile, mingled together— i
he lot •: not passionately as i love, i
or he could not trifle thus; a light
compliment was never yet breathed i
by love. leuioro. was at that age 1
when the tie per tenderness of woman t
« - st deepens die gaiety of childhood, f
like the ili ber tint that dyes the rose I
as it expends into summer loveliness, t
Adored hy her fall for she had her r
mothers voice and look,and came a t
sweet lenjenibitmcer of his youth’s \
sje warm drear.) pf happiness, of that I
love whose joy departed ere it knew j s
one cloud ofeare or one sting of sor- t
row; a word of anger seemed to Don 1
Fernando a sacrilege against the 1
dead, and his own melancholy con- s
stancy gave a reality to the romantic i
imaginings of his child. She now 1
loved Fitzallan with all the fervor of I
first excited attachment; she hadi >
known him under circumstances the j
raos rffecting, when the energies and,
softer feelings of woman were alike ;
called forth; when the proud and
fearless soldier became dependent on
her he protected; laid on the bod of
sickness; far from the affectionate
hands that would have smoothed;
the tender eyes that would have wept
o’er his pjllow.—lsadore became his
nurse, soothed with unremitting care
the solitude and weariness of a sick
room; and when again able to bear
the fresh air of heaven, her arm
was die support of her too in
teresting patient. With Fitzallan
the day of romance was over; a man
above thirty cannot enter into the
wild visions of an enthusiastic girl;
flattered by the attachment which
Isadore’s every look betrayed, he
trifled with, regardless or thoughtless
of the young and innocent heart that
confided so fearlessly. Love has no
power to look forward—the delicious
rnnweiouviuiMfl of tho procoiltj u iuint
but delightful shadow of the past,
form its eternity ; the possibility of
separation never entered the mind of
his Spanish love, till Fitzullan’s in
stant return to England became ne
cessary. They parted with all those
gentle vows which are such sweet
anchors for hope to rest on in absence
—but alas such frail ones.
For a time her English lover wrote
very regularly. Tlmt philospher
knew the human heart who said, u 1
would separate from my mistress for
the sake of writing to her.” A word,
a look, may be forgotten ; but a let
ter is a lasting memorial of affection.
, The correspondence soon slackened
on his part. Isadore, tending the
last moments of a beloved parent,
had not one thought for her self; but
when that father's eyes were closed,
and her tears had fallen on the grave
of the companion of her infancy, the
orphan looked round for comfort, for
: consolation, and felt, for the first
time, her loneliness and the sickness
of hope deferred. Fear succeeded
expectation; fear, not for his fidelity,
but for his safety : was he again laid
on the bed of sickness, and Isadore
far away ? She dwelt on this idea
tiil it became a present reality ; sus
pense was agony; at length she resolv
ed on visiting England. She sailed,
and after a quick voyage reached the
land :—a wanderer seeking for hap
piness, which, like the shadow thrown
by the lily on the water, still eludes
the grasp. It was not thus in the
groves of Arragon she looked forward
to the British shore; it was then the
promised home of a beloved and hap
py bride.
The day after her arrival in Lon
don she drove to her agent’s, (for her
father, during the troubles in Spain,
had secured some property in the
English funds,) hoping from him to
gather some intelligence of the Colo
nel. Passing through a very crowd
ed street, her coach becoming en
tangled in the press, occasioned a
shor.* stoppage. Gazing round in
that mood when, anxious to escape
the impressions within, the eye in
voluntarily seeks for others without,
her attention became attracted to an
elegant equipage. Could she be
mistaken?—never in that form—it
was surely Fitzallan ! Well she re
membered that graceful bend, that
air of protection, with which he sup
ported his companion. The agitated
Spaniard had just caught a glimpse
of her slight and delicate figure, of
eyes blue as a spring sky, of a check
of sunset; and, ere her surprise al
lowed the power of movement, the
carriage was out of sight.—Her en
treaties to be allowed to alight, being
only attributed to fear, were answer
ed by assurances that she was safe.
Gradually becoming more composed,
she bade the coachman enquire who
lived in the house opposite—it was
the name she longed to hear—Colo
nel Fitzallan. She returned home,
and with a tremulous hand traced a
few lines, telling him how she hud 1
wept his silence, and entreating him
to come and say she was still his own ,
Isadore. The evening passed drear- i
ily away; every step made the color i
flush her cheek ; hut he came not.— i
Was he indispensably engaged ! lie I
had not received her note ? any ;
supposition.bnt intentional delay.— ■
The next morning, the same fevered I
anxiety oppressed her: at length she I
heard the door, and springing to the
window, caught sight of a military
man she heard bis steps on the
stairs, a gentleman entered, but it j
was not Fitzallan, Ton soon she !
learnt his mission ; he whom she had 1
so loved, so misted, had wedded I
another—the lady she saw the day |
before was his wife; and, unwilling i
to meet her himself, he had charged I
a friend to. communicate the fatal-in- s
telligence. Edward }}**** gazed ‘
with enthusiastic admiration on a t
beautiful Creature, wbo*e pale lip, and 1
scaldingtrars, which forced their way
through the long dark eyelashes, be
lied the firmness her woman’s pride
taught her to assume- Shame, deep
shame, thought he, on the cold, the
mercenary spirit which could thus
turn the warm feelings of a fond and
trusting girl into poisoned arrows,
could thus embitter the first sweet
flow of affection. He tool; her hand
in silence—he felt that consolation in
a case of this kind was but mockery.
They parted, the one to despair over
the expired embers, the other to nurse
the first sparkles of hope.
The next morning scarcely aware
of what he v/as tiding, or of the mo
tive which actuated him, (for who
seeks to analyze love’s earliest sensa-
I tions ?) Edward sought the abode of
this interesting stranger. He found
with her Col. Fitzallan’s solicitor;
that gentleman, suspicious of the
warm feeling evinced by his friend
i for the fair Spaniard, had employed
a professional man ; for he was well
aware that the letters he had written
would give Isadore strong claims up
on him. He arrived at the moment
when she first comprehended that
her lover’s reason for wishing his let
ters restored, originated in his fear of
a legal use being made of them. Hot
dark eyes flushed fire, her cheek
burnt with emotion, her heart-beat
became audible, as she hastily caught
the letters and threw them into Jiie
flames, “ You have performed your
mission,” exclaimed she ;“ leave the
room instantly.” Her force was now
exhausted, she sank back on the sofa.
The tender assiduities of Edward at
length restored her to some degree of
composure. It was luxury to have
her feelings entered into ; to share
sorrow is to soothe it. She told him i
of hopes blighted forever, of wound- j
ed affection, of the heart-sickness
which had paled her cheek, and vorn i
to a shadow her once symmetrical l
form. She had in her hand a few j
withered leaves. “It is,” said she, I
“ the image of my fate ; this rose fell j
from my chair one evening; Ftzal
lan placed it in his bosom; by moon
light I found- it thrown aside, it was
faded, but to me it was precious from
even that momentary caress; 1 have
to this day cherished it. Are not our
destinies told by this flower? His
was the bloom, the sweetness of lave ;i
my part was the dead and scentless
leaves.” Edward now became her
constant companion; she found ir.
him a kind and affectionate brother.
At length he spoke of love. Isadore
replied by throwing back her long
dark hair with a hand whose dazzling
whiteness was all that remained ofitsi
former beauty, and bade him look on ■
her pale and faded countenance, and
there seek his answer. “ Yes, 1 shall
be wed, but my bridal wreath will be
the cypress, my bed the grave, my
spouse the hungry worm !” Edward
gazed on her face, and read convic
tion ; but still his heart clung to her
wifli ail the devotedness of love, which
hopes even in despair, and, amid the
wreck of every promise of happiness,
grasps at even the the unstable wave.
One evening she leaned by a win
dow, gazing fixedly on the glowing
sky of a summer sunset; the rich
color of her cheek, which reflected
the carnation of the west, the intense
light of her soft but radient black
eyes, excited almost hope ; could the
hand ot death be on what was so
beautiful ? lor the first time she
asked (or her lute; hitherto, she had
shrunk flora the sound ofmwdc; Fit
zallan had loved it; to her it was the
knell of departed love. She waked
a few wild and melancholy notes.—
“.These sounds,” sighed she, “ are
to me fraught with tender recollec
tions ; it is the vesper hymn of my
own country.” She mingled her
voice with the tones, so faint, so sad,
but so sweet, it was like the song of a
spirit as the concluding murmur died
away. She sunk back exhausted ;
Edward for a while supported her
head on his shoulder; at length he
parted the thick curls from off her
face, and timidly prest her lips ; he
started from their chilling touch—it
was his first. Ins last kiss—isadore
had expired in his arms !
The Trenton Federalist, says that
“ was the passing of the Eclipse
through New-Jcrsey, dressed up in
his finery, on his way to Washington,
that produced the racing fever afresh,
in some of the citizens, from which
arose the application to the Legisla
ture for an act to authorixe horse
racing—but the horsemen in the fer
vor ot their zeal, forgot to tack a
bank to the tail of their bill—and it
failed.”

Curious Arithmetical Paradox. —
In an Arabic manuscript was found ,
the following remarkable decision of
a dispute:—Two Arabians sat down
ij to dinner; one had five loaves, the oth
er three. A stranger passing by, de
sired to eat with them, which they
agreed to. The stranger dined, laid *
down eight pieces of money, and de- *
parted. The proprietor of the five t
I loaves took up five pieces, and left t
three for the other, who objected, and
• insisted for one half. The cause
came on before Ali, the Magistrate,
i who gave the following judgment:—
, “ Let the owner of the-five loaves t
have seven pieces of money, and the t
owner of the three one. Query the c
justice of the sentence ?—Answer.— c
All’s sentence was just; for, suppose j
the loaves to he divided each into
three equal parts, making twenty- j
four parts in all the eight loaves, and
each person to eat an equal or eighth
part; therefore the stranger had se- j
' ven parts of the person who contri- t
buted five loaves, or fifteen parts, c
and only one of him who contributed s
three loaves, which make nine parts! f

We perceive iu the last Cahawbs
I’ress, a Proclamation of the Govornoi
of Alabama, in which a reward of 401
dollars is offered for the apprehension o
four persons who escaped from the jail
of St. Clair county. John Goodman, the
first named, was imprisoned under the
charge of counterfeiting bank notes, and
is one of the number surprised and taken
in a cave in Tuscaloosa county. Bri
tain Bailey and James U. Bailey, the twe
next named, were confined Under a sim
ilar charge—and John Logan on a charge
of larceny. The following is the dcscrip
given of them :
John Goodman, fair complexion, cross
eyed, about *i feet high, remarkably slim
delicate hands, dark hair, large whiskers,
fluent in conversation—one of those ta
ken in the Tuscaloosa cave, has once liv
ed iu Tennessee and may make in that
direction.
Britain Bailey, about 5 feet 10 inches
high, dark hair, sandy whiskers, slim
made, 23 or 21 years old.
Jamefc B. Bailey, near 5 feet 0 inches
high, lawny complexion, 23 or 24 years
old. Both the Baileys are natives o<
Hawkins county, 1 ennessee, and may
make that course.
Joan Logan, fi feet high,' fair skin,
sandy hair and curly, whiskers red, slow
of speech, has a family iu Coosa Valley,
and may take shelter among the Creek
Indians.

FOli TXiE CHRONICLE L ADVERTISER.
•Mr. Hannon , — l observe that the sub
ject of the next Presidential election con
tinues to engage the attention of many
of the northern and eastern Editors, and
some individual, I perceive, has in one
of your late papers suggested anew can
didate for the Presidential office. The
course the discussion on this subject has
taken, and the number of candidates pre
sented, evidence so much diversity ol
sentiment, that it becomes som what im
portant to devisa a method hv which
more unanimity of opinion may be pro
moted. It has often been intimated, that
less diversity of sentiment on the subject
of a successor to Mr. Monroe would exist
could another revolutionary character
be found to fill the Executive chair: but
as this cannot be done, I beg leave to en
quire whether the continuance of one ol
the last 1 of the revolutionary patriots in
the office he so advantageously fills,
might not be deemed an expedient, as
as well as a judicious measure, both on
the principle of preserving harmony and
as a testimony of gratitude for past ser
vices.
It is certainly possible, if Mr. Monroe
were to receive an intimation that it was
the wish of many of his countrymen that
he should permit his nan c to be placed
on the list of candidates for President at
the next election, that he would consent
to such an arrangement,—and who can
doubt but that it would be better to rely
so his known patriotism, wisdom and ex
perience, than to hazard the choice of
one who had fewer claims to public con
fidence ?
As Mr, Monroe is the last of the revo
lutionary characters who can ever fill
the executive office, it might be well for
the nation to enjoy the benefit of his ser
vices as long as he would consent to ren
der them—and no substantial reason is
known to exist why he should not be
chosen a third time, if the public good
required it. By the Constitution of the
United States an individual is eligi lc
: the Executive office us lon- as the people
choose to continue him i \ it. Ceneral
Washington, the first President, declined
a re-election after the expiration of his
second term of office ; this he probably
did as well from his known love of re,
tiremciit, as from a desire to shew to his
l(J countrymen and the world, that no p er ,
. so “ al or individual popular',,
ty was necessary to give stability and
I i energy to the Executive Magistrate of
! the U iUed States. Circumstances had
e made him more popular and more gcnc
a rally beloved than any other individual
u could expect to be ; and when he had
' for eight years administered that govern.
0 ment to which he had been instrumental
'■ in organising, he wished, no doubt, to see
e its operations, when in no degree depend*
’• ent upon his known weight of character
and inllucncc.
’ s His immediate successor held the office
, one terra, and those who followed h m
i- two ; and to continue the present iacum
- bent a third term might be well, not only
lt byway of shewing that the people were
g not apprehensive of an abuse of power
u in the haads of a virtuous Magistrate, but
also, byway of continuing their strongest
■ ■ I testimonials of regard to the last of the
q revolutionary heroes who could ever be
y thus honored. It i? probable too, if Mr.
Monroe were to be again a candidate for
h the Presidency, that he would be ei.ooen
. f hy the electoral college—which would,
k assuredly, be preferable to having the
choice eventually devolve upon repre
sentatives not appointed for this particu
if lar purpose. Z.
