Come to thy home, thy childhood's home, My pilgrim, lone Slid broken-hearted ! llore let thy lootetepn cense to room, Grief hath been on then since we ported. Bring in, bring in, thy liglitdiaired hoys, Bring in thy youngest hlue-eyi d hlossotn; Hark! ’tis thy mother's gentle voice, Calling the tremblers to hbr bosom. Now rest thee, love, check now the tears Down thy pale cheek encli other chasing: For well 1 know that brighter dot s Thy busy thoughts arc fast retracing. Geina spaikled onco on thy fair brow, Thy sunny lucks with enre were braided, Thou wert a happy bride, but now Thy matron brow i« thinly shaded. N Thou thinkost on thnt manly form Ti nt stood that mum in love beside thee, Tin ' ice that vowed through every storm Oi future life to shield and guide thee. The voice is hushed, that form ia cold, ’ rts this prolongs thy hitter weeping, To think that one of beauteous mould, iu the dark gruve is silent sleeping. Yet cheer thee, love, look on thy boys, Blight not their bloom with early sorrow, O, let them lieur thy mother’s voice. G.cet them with words of hope to morrow . Tell them that Ho who kindly hears The ravens from their rocky dwelling, Will guide and guard their orphan veers, And soothe thy heart with anguish swelling. Then cheer then in thy childhood’s home, My pilgrim, lone and broken-hearted! Here let thy footsteps cease to roam, Grief hath been on then since we parted. ^ EARTH’S WANDERINGS. “And the Dove found no rest for tho solo of her foot."

They were omus- ing themselves at u game of Domino. The for mer very com teouslv performed the ceremonies of mi introduction, uud thus removed the fashionuhlu rt siiainl that is placed upon strangers. A very few passing and common place remarks placed us on the most liberal terms of friendship. After transacting the business with which l was entrust ed. and being about to depart, Mr. Noel (ibis I bud leuriied was the young man’s name) said, •* If you are going to walk up street. 1 will accompany you if yoj have no objection.'* " Sir,” replied i, •* 1 shull lie gratified to have your company.” Dur. ing tiiis short walk, I learned that ho was engaged in the same occupation l was. lie said he Imd for some time been noticing my reserved and linos, teiitatious habits, and that, lor reaetftis which pru dence forbade him to explain, he Imd become uux- ions to enjoy my friendship and confidence.” This ovi-rture was no more unexpected than it was gru. tifyiug.—i Imd long been deprived of the enjoy ment of much real satisfaction, by having no con fidant with whom 1 could exchange opinions freely; for that which is calculated to ulford the most ex. ailed pleasure, loses its interest iu a great measure, unless we can divulge it to some person, frankly und confidentially. Before we parted, we agreed to accompany ouch other to church in the country on die next Sabbath. From this time, an intimute friendship, embracing an unlimited degree of con. fideucu, existed between us. Many were the eve nings we spent together in the most social uud de lightful manner. In a word, whenever a leisure hour occurred, we were sure to spend it with each other. Tlie laconic diulogue at the commence, ment of this tale took place between Mr. Noel uud myself. Such was the relation of friendship that existed between us when we attended the wed. ding party. in uboul fifteen minutes alter our arrival, the bride and groom uppeured outlie Hour, accompa nied by three attendants on each side, in the pres* enee of the Priest, who pronounced, in the most solemn and impressive manner, the marriage cer emony. This being dene, and the congratulation of friends being over, tho next movement w as to •epuir to the supper table, which we found urrung. ed in a long room, extending from one end to the other, heavily and richly laden with every dcscrip- tion of diet that could be furnished, from the hands of the most skilful culinarion. As a matter of course, the ladies were shown the way to and wait, ed upon at the table, by the gentlemen who, on that •cusion, displayed Uic most exquisite gallantry. While this business was going on 1 bad opportuni. ty of noticing the deep interest in the mailer that Mr. Noel manifested, und the extraordinary ease, facility and cheerfulness that accompanied all his movements MILLEDGEVILLE, TUESDAY, JULY 18, 1843.

The occuiar faculties were daz- I lied nnd eclipsed by the glittering illuminatons that I proceeded, hy the reflection of the fiamhenux. from I the various diamond rings, brea.st-pius, (Sic., that I glittered among the crowd. The above scene look I place a few years ago, in n small Village in the [upperpart of South Carolina. I 1 was engaged as a salesman in thn store of Mr. [Turnipseed.an extensive merchant who, having en* 1 giged in business in the first settling of that Village, j *hei» goods were bought in Philadelphia and else I where, and transported to their place of destina* I Hon on wagons—having no competitor, uud being J strict economist, lie bud accumulated an immense 1 •mount of wealth. 1 w as bred in the country, and j ihe lapse of a very short time convinced me that I jy notivo habits, did not correspond with Village jnihions. Being thus situated, I remained for I miny months inclose confinement to the business | *n which 1 was engaged ; even on tho Sabbath day J ®ot venturing out of the counting room. But man I oot having been creuted to live alone, is naturally I •BOcial being. For the sake of recreation, I at I kngih concluded to go to church occasionally. (To Hoto church for recreation or amusement is I ‘hateful admission; but it is the fact.) In do JJw. I had an opportunity of becoming acqunin- *Nli some of the fashions ; and as is tho case | •«hs majority of the human family, I hnd the organ [*' ** •■nittuion” well developed, und consequently | mind no difficulty iu conforming to the cus | •om«. Bometimes,during my leisure hours, I strolled Ik n tu the Village Hotel, as a neutral observer, | Mhc purpose of amusement, and also for im. I Movement. During those vi>its 1 noticed a young IlNt.eainn of a bland and open countenance and scenes were ended. Then succeeded a free nnd liberal intercourse between the sexes in general, und merry conversation, amusing and appropriate anecdotes, laughter, &o., as well as some private chit-chatting. Mr. N. was a general favorite among the ladies, lli-s attention he extended alter, nutely towards every one, und ull received it in the most cordiul manner. No other person seemed to half as much plcusuro as did he. Wherever lie went his presence kepi up the merry laugh ‘throughout the evening. And from every appear ance, i wus inclined tu believe tlmt he was an en tire stranger lo vexations und depressing cures. About II o’clock the puny adjourned. Mr. Noul invited me to accompany him to his room, und 1 cheerfully complied. After quufliinga glass or two of Madeira und taking a cigar we sat down tolmvu a social chut before retiring to rest. After reviewing the most amusing scenes that occurred at the wedding, “Well, George,” said 1," 1 am inclined to believe that you are 'he happi- est man l ever saw. From the constant flow of cheerfulness uud good humor that attends ull your actions, I am confirmed in the opinion that the op pressive cures ot sorrow and disappointment luve never found a resting-place in your youthful mind.” After a momentary pause, "Richard,” said he, " we have long been acquaintances—we liuve long been friends. A feeling of candor com- Is me at present to undeceive you on tlmt point, and to let you know the true fuels of my situation, liich will turn out quite the reverse of your sup. positions. As the night is now fur advunneed, 1 will not detain you with a long und tedious ■ years ago, from tho nature of the busi ness in which 1 was engaged, I was often thrown in the presence oi a young lady named Permeiin G—* whose in*;.net's were of the most friendly nnd ugreeubie order, and who possessed a considerable portion of beauty. A very social and interesting acquaintance ensued, which resulted in a long und uninterrupted course friendship, sustaining on both sides undoubted confidence. Fora length of time, 1 never cherished an idea of giving any indulgence to the passion of love ; and l suppose she did not. But our friendship ami intimacy continued, until '.lie company of no other person afforded an equal sa tisfaction. I now found tiial her engaging und fas- are fur from me, in the midst of strangers. I once believed, thut if there was a man in the world iu whom I could confide, and whose qualifications were in every respect calculated to render me Imp. py, thaW/ial man was you. I think so yet. Time tails me to say more. "Yours devotedly, "PERM ELI A ” Mr. Noel continued, in these words : "I readi ed home on Friday uigiit. My ardent feelings compelled me ou the succeeding Sabbath lo visit Miss P. On thut morning l was ull impatience— ull anxiety. So taking a hurried gait, l soon came iu view of the residence of my "ludye-love.” Just at tlmt moment I was seized with u queer unusual trepidation,and un iudcscrilmblo feeling of difli- dence, vacancy or something, that almost compelled me to turn buck.—1 slopped—deliberated u mo. ment—my courage prevailed—and 1 went on. On entering die bouse, I felt that the red liquid that had just been retreating from my cheeks, now re lumed with a healed velocity that seemed as if it wus wishing to burst forth from its place of confine ment. My tongue clave to the roof of my moutli —and in this embarrassing uud hum.Mating siiun- iion,our first meeting, after a year’s uhsence, took place. I sal down in confusion, with my eyes turned towards the lirc-pluce, saying nothing for some time. *Miss P. was the first lo introduce a conversation ; and ufter some time my embarrass ment gradually vanished, and the duy was spent in free, lively and sociul conversation, embracing ail the incidents that bad occurred with cither party during our long absence, that were worthy of no tice. Allusion w as often made to the many do- Sightful hours we had enjoyed in each other’s pres ence, in days past and gone. "Some weeks afterwards, on a Sabbath, that wus one of those beautilully clear and pleasant au tumnal days that seldom fall to the lot of man to en joy, 1 attended church us 1 was wont to do. So did Miss P. Amidst a numerous und attentive crowd thut turned out on that occasion, including ull the rivals in the country for beauty und elegance, none, in my estimation, bore any comparison with tho fair and accomplished Miss P.

The usual mementos of parting lovers were exciiunged, and n mutual nnd fervent agreement entered into that we would cor. respond hy letter during my sojourn in a land of strangers. Shortly after my arrival iu Teancssec, I wrote hasty note to Miss P., informing her that I bad a safe, though lonesome journey , but in every company "Just before our arrival at the road’s fork that would separate us fur that evening, interrupting a long pause, Miss 1*. said in a tremulous voice, evin cive of conscenctious guilt of having acted incor rectly,'Mr. Noel, 1 will thunk you—to return me —as soon as practicable—all—the letters—I have ever wrote to you—if you still—retain them ’ A thunderbolt from the clear und open wilds of e- ther would not have been more shocking or unex pected. I was so confused that I could make no reply—did not even have my thoughts sufficiently collected to ask her to explain the reasons that had influenced her to assume that position. Iu thut situation we parted. 1 never saw her more. Tho most depressing state of melancholy, bordering on stupefaction, hovered over me for sovcrul days. My friends made many inquiries about the cause | that bud created this sudden nnd unhappy change, but I gave them no satisfaction.

A few days after this, Mr. N’a engagement in busi ness expired, and ho left the Village. Romeo. —From an extract published in the Albany Argus, nnd derived from the Narra tive of Mr. Wilson, a missionary in Africa, wo learn thnt he has discovered a nation of Ethiopians never before seen or described by any while man. Mr. Wilson is stationed on the Gaboon River, which empties into the Atlantic, about twenty miles north of the Equator. The mission is at the mouth of the river, but hav ing a fine opportunity, Mr. Wilson accompanied Toko, a distinguished negro merchant, up the Ga boon nnd its tributary the Big Orombo, to Kobnn- gai’s town, fifty miles from the oconn, on the Bnwke n branch of the Big Orombo. This was ns far up the river ns he ascended. While there, he met with a new nation of Africans, "some of whom were said to come live days journey und others ton or twelve days journey from the interior”—that is from 200 to 400 miles from the sea coast. He culls them the Pangtce people, because they came from lho direc tion iu which a country of tlmt name lies. The distance from the coust indicates thut they enrne from Ethiopia ; nnd possibly that this people may spread over that vast unknown region of Africa. Ti.e existence und use of iron of their own manu facture, seems very rcnmrkuble, nnd philosophers would sny indicates nu advanced state of civiliza. lion, for it is known that a barbarous or savage peo ple never have iron of their own manufacture until it has been first introduced by the whites. The non. existence of slavery and the slave trade among them shows a feature still more distinctive from the or dinary African. Wo uro furnished by the Argus with the follow ing passage from the journal of Mr. Wilson. "During our short sojourn in this place, wo met wiiit u number of men entirely different in their fea tures and general appearance front those in litis part of the country, somo of whom were said to nave come five, and others ten or twelve days jour ney from tiio interior. They were known by the name of the Pungwc people. They were on a vis. it lo this part of ine country, which is as near to the sea coast us'lhey have ventured. Hearing of us at thi9 place, they came iu considerable numbers to sec a white man und old Toko, one of whom was much an object ofcuriositv us the other. Those of them whom wo saw, both men nnd wo- men, were vastly .superior iu their personal appear- unce to the maritime tribes ; and if they may be re- garded as n fair spec'imm of their people, 1 should huve no hesitation in pronouncing them the finest Africans whom 1 have ever met with. They wore no clothing, except u piece of cloth made of the in ner bark of a tree. This is drawn between the legs und fastened around the loins hy n chord. Nor do they covet cloth. On tho other hand they jeer tile bushmeu of this region, hy telling them thut they wear cloth to conceal their personal defects, and their external diseases. Both men uud women braid their hair with a great deal of taste. The women braid ihe hair ou the forepart of the head in two ows, which lie over tho forehead not unlike the t rill of u cap. That on the back part is pluited in to five or six braids which reach below the shoul ders. "The men are of medium statue, remarkably well formed healthy in their uppeurancc, and manly in their deportment. They hud knives, spears, trnve ling bags and other articles of curious und ingenious workmanship, specimens of which we procured for a very small quantity of beads. All of their imple ineuts are mode of iron of their own, which is con- side red vastly superior to any brought to the coun- try by trading vessels.—They set no value upon cloth, and ns yet have never acquired u taste fo tobacco or rum. Beads, powder, and bruss they prize very highly, nnd were willing to give away any thing they had for the smallest quantiles of ci ther of these. They represent their countiy us mountainous and healthful, nud affirm that cutane ous and other diseases common to the maritime re gions are unknown among them. They have nev er participated in the slave trade, and regard it, as is hy no means unnatural in their circumstances, with the utmost abhorrence. Oae or two instances are known where they have visited attempts lo enslave their people with signal vengeance. Ii is dtflicull lo dclinu the limits and lent of their country. Perhaps the most wester- ly border of what is known as titu Par.gwo territory was within one hundred and fifty miles of the coast, and from thence it may extend many hundred miles into the interior, and possibly spread itself over u large portion of the south side of the Mountains of the Moon. Their country is represented as im- mensely populous, but 1 could not learn that they hud any very large or powe ful organizations. They are aware thut vessels visit tho opposite coast and they nflirm that they have seen articles of mer chandize brought from that quarter. 1 am inclin ed to think the Pangwe people are tmigratiiig in lurge bodies towards the coast. If so the interme diate hu.shmen, weakened us they tire by the slave trade, must inevitably be supplanted.” Interesting Incident.—A Carrier Pigeon lighted ut the house of the Hon. \Vm. M. Burrell iu Canaun, on Monday afternoon, giving signs of hunger and fatigue. And as Judge B. never sends travellers emp y dway, he brought oul some wheat to his winged visitor, whicli it very greedily ate from his hand. While the pigeon was eating, its legs were noticed to be wrapt with paper ; and on removing tho bandages they were found to con- tnin Mr. Webster's Speech delivered on Saturduy ut the Bunker Hill celebration written on two sheets f tissue paper. The Judge had the pleusuro of ending the speech while the bird was satisfying ts hunger and regaining its strength nnd then re placing the tissue boots on the faithful airy mes- sengcr.it took a rapid flight to the West, nnd soon we trust, found its way to the owner.—Litchfield Enquirer, Important Discovery in the Art of Painting —Mr. M. Laniberg, u well informed and accomp lished German painter of this city, bus at last suc ceeded in composing a paint identical with that found on the ruins of Poinpei. After the expira- ion of ISOOyeurs, the colored porticos of that city are still fresh as when first decorated by tho Latin irtist. It lias long been an object of solicitude throughout Europe to discover the composition of tiiis rare paint. Deputations huve been sent, com posed of chemists and painters, having unlimited means. Books have been written, nnd much dis cushion had, but the secret was hitherto beyond dis- overy. Last winter tho compound of Mr. Lam- berg was tested in this city by the engineer, nnd pecimens are now in preparation for the Grand Duke of Saxony. Mr. Lamberg is now prepared to paint houses in Louisville in a mannor as dura- ble, he thinks, as those of the ancient Romans. The Love of Money.—There is nothing which brings more misery than nn inordinate love of •iucy, for when once it obtains u firm hold on our inds, it destroys all the nobler and belter feelings. — Who that is continually studying how to take advantage of his neighbor’s necessities or is look- ing about to seek some advantage of his brother n, is a good man? It cannot be, for benevolence reverence nnd all the rr.orral faculties are slumber- while acquisitiveness, cautiousness, lltuse evil and hurtful passions, are wide awuke and prompt on to ull that is base. Let a benevolent man, q man who has in bis heart the wurm and open spring of sympathy for ull bis fellows, converse with a miserly niggard; ono who though rich is continual- ly making himself miserable, because he is afraid he may come to poverty, and what a feeling it will give him. lie pities the poor crealuro thus lost to all that elevates and raises human character, for he feeis that he has perverted the purpose for which he wus brought into being. And so he has ; for al though acquisitiveness was properly given to us, so thut we might not fail to provide for the wants of ourselves and those depeudent upon ns, yet the very fact that wc possess other and belter faculties, or traits of character, is sufficient to tench us that it | dress them for yen is our duty to use them, uud not sacrifice ourselves to the cultivation of one ulotic. The man who only loves money is not only miserable himself, but he is an evil in soyoty, in many respects. When anything is proposed for Divorces, Courtship, Marriage, Ill-Assorted Matches. Applications for divorces seem to be very fre* quent of late, in certain parts of this country. Matrimony ta»a most sacred contract, it should not be entered into without due deliberation, and the knot once tied, and sanctified as well by the laws of God os of man, the husband should not Im permitted to put away his wife, or tho wilb her husband, for any but the most important consider®* tions. Nothing, as it seems to us is moro calcu lated to unhinge society, to corrupt the heart, and to weaken the obligations between parent and child, limn discontent and discord in wedded life, nud ns a consequence, efforts at disunion and divorce. Per haps a great error moy be attributed in tho first place to busty marriages, uud in the second, to an indisposition after mimiago in the parties to amend their faults of temper, and to overlook imperfec tions of character in each other. How many ill- assorted matches arc there in the world ! How ma. ny couples enter into a contract for life, who know little or nothing of each other’s character, mind or infirmities. How many,-moreover, arc there, who imperfect themselves cannot overlook or forgive, the imperfections of others ! What rashness, what impropriety, what wrong, characterize the system, of courtship, as too generally carried on in thLcouq. try ! How frequently do wo discover that matches made in a moment of haste, and influenced altogeth er by mercenary motives, terminate in tho most frightful family chaos. Young people aro too apt to look at the world through a false medium. Yourg females especially are taught in many cases ter believe that nn early marriage is the great aim of woman’s ambition. A lover is a darling object of their dreams, long before they have passed thoir teens. Mere lads ute sometimes permitted to utf- without the ability in the first place to decide as to the naturo of their own feel- ings, as to the trials and vicissitudes of the world, or ns to their prospect for discharging the duties- which devolve on the head of a family. Parents are often to blame in these cases. They permit the good of society, and which is not of immediate their daughters to associate with those whom they benefit to himself, how quickly will he frown upon it, and find fault with it in some respect. He thinks every thing wrong which will interfere with Ilia purse. No matter how benevolent the plan, or how much good is proposed to be done, il it draws upon bis purse, it is detectable in bis ryes, and censes to have any attraction. To lev.) money deceives men in regard to their characters. They may suppose their actions are correct uud Itouoruble, when iu fact they aro not pahle of judging of themselves, because money blinds them. I have seen men who thought they were acting a noble part, when in ^ ucl community looked upon them as mean, stingy and contempti ble. There is nothing that will shut the eyes to all <T i)0 J like the love of money. Its glittering charm •ouses within the % br*o»l such selfish feelings, as will make man u demon.—The cries of poverty may strike the ear but they ore unheeded. The claims of parental love may call, but aflection is past. The dearest friends on earth aro oiten sacrificed. Tho holiest ties severed, and the place of happiness occupied by misery. Now this should nut be ; for it is n moral curso which desolates society, and saps the very founda tion of ull religion and virtue. And Imw shall it he medied 1 There is but one way ami that is sure. would not choose as husbands for their children, ind yet are surprised when, under such circuit, eances, attachments are formed, and runuwnv natches take place.

Some one has said hat "ill ussorted matches are generally early ones, nnd that coui (ships carried on under Hie sanction of friends, are seldom broken off, except it L»e w iso they should.” There is truth and force in this,— Wc spo it realized almost everyday, Sometimes, we admit, parents are too obstinate, and consult • ambition, rank in life, und pecuniary considerations, j rather than the real welfare nud true liappiness of j liteir children.—But these instances are rare, very j rare. The happiest marriages in the vast major!. »y of cases, are those which, secure the brightness- parent's approving smile.

Let him touch them that there is a higher object than the mere ncquisi- tion and love of paltry metal, even ’.ho love of vir. tue ; the respect which will be gained by pursuing un upright nnd manly course. Let them he taught that man hus in bis soul tho seeds of greatness; thut he bus benevolence and reverence, which when combined with bis high intellectual faculties, raises him as far ubove the niggard in the scalo of worth as God is above tho most perfect being on this earth. 1( this subject could be seriously thought upon by community, it would be le:t as one of importance. It has long been thought that money was the high- est and first object to be sought-that for ns ncquisi. tion we were brought into existence, und endowed with faculties. But we find that tins is not the case, and thut this errroneous notion has caused tho worst consequences. It hus alienated from proper objects the best and kindest feelings. It keeps down the noble part of mun, and makes him vile, crally and suspicious. It destroys all loligion, for who that worships money can worship God ? May the time come when all men may understand tho true purpose for whicli tltey were created, and pur- sue tlmt course which will expand the whole mind. By so doing they will be made virtuous und happy, and free community ofone ofits worst evils. Slur in the U r cs<.

Whitewash that will not rub off.—Mix half a pail of lime and water ready to put on the wall then take a gill of wheat flour, mix up well in very little cold water, then pour boiling water over it till it thickens.

This, then is the grand thing you have to do ; examine the longue of tho bitten person two or three times a day, and us soon as any pustules arc discovered, open them, and mnke the person spit out the matter washing the mouth aftet wards with salt and water. This course is the same that wus reommouded by Professor Murocliitti of Moscow, iu 1820, and it has been proved to bo effectual. In 1832, the phy sician, who makes this communication to the Trop ic, wus called to visit u negro woman who Imd been bitten by a fabid dog, and, by pursuing the treat- ment recommended above, he was successful in curing her. His first intimation of this mode of cure, he snys, was derived from a publication in an English Magazine, made forty years ago by u gen- tieman who had recently returned from Taitury, where mad dogs were common, and where, when any one is bitten, this means of preventing hydro phobia is resorted to, and always considered highly efiicacious. This course, for preventing hydrophobia, is so safe and so simple thut it may be practiced by any person.
