As this is not the first time said fellow has runa

go off to a distance and hire out his own time.
For the apprehension of the negro, and proof of
this fact, sufficient to conviction, l will give one

The following lines were suggested by rokd-
ing a description of the Stone or Roc* -Mountain
in an old Macon Telegraph which I accidentally
picked up two or three months ago ; and altho*
I have since visited the scene,and clotnb the moun
tain, and fiud my idea of it a little different from
the reality, yet it is near enough for poetry; and
so if you think the effusion contains sufficient me
rit, you will gratify a subscriber by giving it a

It argues uothing agaiust the piece, that it is an
imitation, and many of its ideas borrowed.

STONE MOUNTAIN BALLAD.
ITT us go. Lrtss'm, go. to the cool babbling fountain,
\\ hose pure waters flow from the foot of the mountain
\\ here the huse giant Rock stoops to bath* bis cold
Vnd scout his grey locks with the jessamine sweet;
\\ here the tall stately pine, in the still forest there,
deeds his head to the vine which is kissing his hair;
And the poplar so gay, w hile her soft leaves are trem
bling,
rnrus her face to the bay to list his dissembling;
Where the woodbine so warm by the maple is found,
Her affectionate arm still clasping him round; [dingv
And the red-bud so bright shades the path we art trea-
WitU the dogwood all in white like a bride at hep
wedding,
Let us jro. Lasele, go, where the breezes are blowing.
And the foam, white as snow, down tb^ hill-side is
flowing.
Tkere’s nothing to alarm, in thi* stillness and shade.
You shall le *11 on my arin as we passthrough the glade;
WtiP'ethe deer loves to browse on the evergreen cane
And 'he rabbit seeks her house beneath the tall plane ;
W licit the mocking bird chants his long tale to bla
mate.
And the whipperwill rants at the katydid’s prate s
jV here the re.dhird twitters on the honeysuckle bough
Ai.d tne grev squirrel chatters where cbincapins grow.
The Indian has left for his far western home,
And the par-ther and wolf with the wild cat are gone
The eagle is seared from her long cherish’d nest,
Where the mountain has rear’d its bold granite crett.
Let us climb Lassie, climb, up the high nakeipeak.
Where the 8un loves to shine, so warmly on its cheek,
Wuere his eyes first are turn’d, as be wakes from bis
bed;
And his last look is thrown. ns he eovereth his head;
\V he ret! 10 storms rollbelow.and the starsslune above;
(As thy tears sometimes Bow. while thine eyes beam
with love;)
V here nature hath essay’d a column so sublime.
It seems as it ’twas made a mite post for Time 1
Where the Gold Hunters, pressed by the red savage
foe,
Built a wall on its crest, (some centuries ogo;)
But their names and their lot, whence they came ot
where gone,
Have long been as nought, and never ean be known;
VV hi!c the wall on its brow and the pits at the foot,
•Still tell of tbeir visit, their danger, and pursuit;
Oblivion must cover tbeir names end their fears,.
W bother the toavhawk drank their blood and titeix
tears,
Or. freighted with gold, they went as they came,
Without leaving a clue to their nation or name.
An area of several acres on the W r bite Moun
tains was covered with snow on the 11th August,
to the depth of two or three feet in many places-
The snow generally disappears there about the
1st of July.
^ Curious Fact.—A gentleman whctee fancy leads
him to notice the phenomena of nature, assures
us, from his own observation, that on the break
ing out of the cholera in this place the martens and
swallows eutirely disappeared, and that not one
was to be seen while the epidemic prevailed; but
ou Tuesday morning last, much to his surprise,
he saw more than an hundred of these birds skim
ming over the commous near the magazine. He
supposes that these little fevered sojourners in
stinctively withdrew from ti* uoutagious atmos
phere as it hovered over us, and hails their reap
pearance as a sign ol its having paasad away.-*

The cholera has appeared at Andover, in Mas
sachusetts. A Mrs. Hardy had died atone of the
factories there. Dr. Nicholas describes her as
having all the marked symtoms of the disease.—-
Six other cases had occurred there—besides two
others in the neighborhood, at the distance of a *
mile. — ——
Piracy.—The New Orleans Courier contains
the follow ing:
“The United States’ Bfhooner Grampus, Jo-
siah Tatnall Esq. commander, at anchor outsido
the bar. from a cruise of 6 months on the Mexi
can coast, w ith $300,000 iu specie on board.—
The Grampus captured on the 10th inst. tho
Mexican schooner of war Montezuma, Capt. Pe
dro Villeneale, for committing an act of piracy
oa the schooner Wm. A, Turner, 47 days of anti
from New York, for Matamoras. The officers
and crew of the Montezuma, eighty iu number,
are in irons on board the Grampus, and the prizo
is ordered into a port in the United States*
A letter from Paris of the 18th July, states, that
—■ 1 Mr. Ri-rc* loaves us tomorrow, for England
—he wid visit London, take a rapid view of Eng
land, see the most striking points of Scotland,
and return to France in September. He will

Kentucky Elections.—The Globe of Saturday
com fins the returns of the Election for Govenor
in Kentucky from every county with the excep
tion of Pike, from which it appears that the ma
jority for Breathitt, the Jackson candidate, is J08Q.
It is confidently expected that returns from Piko
county will swell Breathitt’s majority to at least
1200. Moorhead, the Clay candidate for Lieuten
ant Governor, is elected; but by what majority is
not stated. The Globe says, of the 9 Senators e-
iected this year, fre are for Jackson and four for
Clay. The Clay party probably have succeeded ia
electing a small majority to the House of Repre
sentatives, a result produced by the shameful way
iu which the State was apportioned during the last
session—giving Clay counties more representative*
and the Jackson counties fewer than they were en
titled to—upon the principle of the rotten borough
system. Besides, several of the strongest Jacksoa
counties have elected Cluv Representatives. Th*
grand result shews that 43 of the 82 counties, bavft
given Jackson majorities —and 34 have gives Ctef
majoritics.-^Raleigh Star.
