POETRY AND MISCELLANY
THE REWARD— BY J, G. WHITTIER.
Who, looking backward from his manhood’s prime,
Sees not the spectre of his misspent time;
And, through the shade
Os funeral cypress, planted thick behind,
Hears ro reproachful whisper on the wind
From hia loved dead ?
Who bears no trace of Passinn’s evil force?
Who shuns thy sting, O terrible Remorse?
Who would not cast
Half of his future from him, hut to win
Wakeless oblivion for the wrong and sin
Os the sealed past?
Alas! the evil which we fain would shun,
We do, and leave the wished-for good undone ;
Our strength to-day
Is but to-morrow’s weakness, prone to fall;
Poor, blind, unprofitable servants all,
Are we alway.
Tet who, thus looking backwards o’er his years,
Feels not his eyelids wet with graceful tears,
If he hath been
Permitted, weak and sinful as he was
To cheer and aid in some ennobling cause
His fellow men ?
If ho hath bidden the outcast, or let io
A ray of sunshine to the cell of sin,
If he hath lent
Streng’h to the weak, and in the hour of need,
Over the suffering, mindless of his creed
Or hue, hath bent.
He has not lived in vain, and while he gives
The praise to Him in whom he moves and lives,
With thankful heart
He gazes backward, and, with hope before,
Knowing that from his works he never more
Can henceforth part.
WHO IS MY NEIGHBOR?
Thy neighbor—it is he whom thou
Hast power to aid and bless.
Whose aching heart or burning brow
Tby soothing hand may press.
Thy neighbor —’tis the fainting poor,
Whose eye with want is dim,
Whom hunger sent from door to door—
Go .hou aud succor him.
Thy neighbor—’tis the weary man,
Whose years are at their brim,
But low with sickness, cares aud pain—
Go thou and comfott him.
Thy neighbor—’’is the heart bereft
Ofevery earthly gem :
Widow and orphan, holpless left—-
Go thou and shelter them.
Where’er thou meet’st a human form
Less favored than tby own,
Remember, ’tis ihy neighbor worm,
Thy brother or thv son.
FORGIVENESS.
The sandal-tree perfumes, when riven,
The axe that laid it low ;
Let 'nan who hopes to be forgiven,
Forgive and bless his foe.
The rose its fragrance to the foot,
While crushing it doth yield ;
Oh. here, ho »• simply beautiful,
Forgiveness is reveal’d.
THINGS THAT CHANGE.
BY MRS. USMANS.
Know’st thou that seas are sweeping
Where cities once have been ?
When the calm wave is sleeping
Their towers may yet be seen ;
Far down below the glassy tide,
Man’s dwellings where his voice has died.
Know’st thou that flocks are feeding
Above the tombs of old,
Which kings their armies leading,
Have lingered to behold !
A short, smooth greensward o’er them spread,
la all that marks where heroes bled.
Knnw’at thou that now the token
Os temples once renowned,
Is but a pillar broken,
With gras* and wall flowers crowned ?
And the lone serpent rears her young
Where the triumph lyre has sung 1
Well, well, I know the story
Os ages passed away,
And the mournful wreck that glory
Has left tn fell decay.
But ihon hast a tale to learn
More full of warnings and stem.
Thy pensive eye but ranges
O'er ruined fine anti hall,
Oh ' ihe deep soul hath changes
M*>re sorrowful than all.
Talk not while these around the throng,
Os silence in the place of song.
See scorn where love has perished,
Distrust, where friendship grew ;
Pride, where once nature cherished
A 1 fender thoughts and true!
Ami shadows of oblivion thrown
O’er every trace of idols gone.
Weep not fir tombs far scattered,
For temples prostrate laid,
In thine own heart lie shattered
The altars it had made
Go, sound its depths in doubt aud fear ;
Heap up no more its treasures here.
Times |go by Turns.
BY ROBERT SOUTHWELL.
The lopped tree in time may grow again,
Most nnked. plants renew both fruit and flower;
The sorriest wight may find release of pain.
The dryest soil suck in some moistening shower;
Times go by turns, and chances change by course,
From foul to fair, from better hap to worse.
The sen of Fortune doth not overflow ;
She drives her favors to the lowest ebb;
Her titles hive equal times to come and go,
Her loom doth weave the fine and coarsest web ;
N«» j«»y great but runneth to an end,
No hap so hard but may in time amend.
Not al wavs full of leaf, n<»r ever spring,
N<>r en 'less night, nor yet eternal day;
The saddost birds a season find to sing,
The roughest storm a calm may soon allay ;
Thus, with succeeding turns, God tempered) all,
That some may hope to rise, yet fear to fall.
A chance may win that by mischance was lost ;
That net that bolds no great, takes little fi*!i ;
In some things all, in all things none are crossed ;
Few all they need, but none have all they wish,
Unmingled joys here to no man befill ;
Who least, hath some; who most, hath never all.
WE SHALL BE HAPPY YET.
BT MRS. JANE URAY.
Fear not l»cloved, though clouds may lower,
Whilst rainbow visions meh away,
Faith’s h<»|y star his still a power
That may the deepest midnight sway,"
Fear not ! I fake n prophet’s tone,
Our love can neit her wane nor set;
My heart grows strong in trust —Mine Own,
We shall be happy yet!
What! though long anxious years have passed,
Since this true heart w is vowed lu thine,
There conies, for us a light at last.
Whose beam upon mir path shall shine,
Yet who have loved ’midst doubts and fears,
Yet never with one hour’s regret,
There comes a joy to guild our tears —
We shall be happy yet!
Aye by the wandering birds, that find
A h m-e beyond the mountain wave.
Though many a wave ami storm combined
To bow them to an ocean grave—
By summer suns that brightly rise.
Though enst in mournful tears they set,
By nil Live’s hopeful prophecies
We shall be happy yet?
LIGHTS OP GENIUS —by miss alice caret.
Upheaving pillars, on wh »se tops
The white s’ars rest like capitals,
Whence every living spark that drops
Kin lies an I blazes as it falls !
And if the arch-fiend rise to pluck.
Orsfoip to crush their beauty down,
A thousand other sparks are struck,
That Glory settles in her crown ’
The huge ship, with its brassv share,
Ploughs the blue sea to speed their course,
And veins of iron cleave the air,
T<» waft them from their burning source ’
All, from the insect's tiny wings.
And the small drop of mo ning dew,
To he wide universe of things,
The light is shining, burning through.
Too deep for our poor thoughts to gauge
Lie their clear sources, bright as truth,
Whence flows upon the locks of age
The b-'auty of eternal youth.
Think, O mv faltering brother, think,
If 'h«»u wilt try, if thou hast tried,
By all ihe lights th»u hast, to sink
The shaft of an immortal tide!
THE LIFE-BOAT,

And ihs wail cranes I 'uder and deeper.

Pauline Brniitpu: le.
The Emperor had reached the zenith of his
pro«penty. He was making kings with as
much ease as he was making marshals. Murat
had just been transferred from the Grand
Duchy of Berg to the throne of Naples, when
one morning a carriage drove into my court
yard, and a lady alighted from it All. I, "s’’ r1 ’
corde ! I exclaimed, it is her Imperial ll>£
tiess, the Princess de Gnastella. [Madame Bor
ghese. the beautiful Pauline Bonaparte.] I
was hasten ng down stairs to rereive her with
all due ceremony, when, happening to pass a
window which looked .mt to he garden I be
held advancing towards lhe house—who but
lhe Emperor himself. He rang at the back
door nsiiallv appropriated ro the servants and
entered. 1 think, accompanied by
Berthier. Here .vas a rencontre! It was
Scylla and Charybdis! I might, perhaps, have
feigned not to recognize the Emperor, but.
with a most imperative gesture, he beckoned
tne to him- I. therefore, turned to the right
about, and leaving the princess to find her way
io the drawing room unattended, 1 hurried to
the Emperor.
“ Prince,” said he, as soon as I was in his
presence, “ I know that my sister wishes to
-peak with you. Show tne into an adjoining
room, where a may hear her break her thun
derbolts. Say what you can to appease her,
but do not pledge me for any thing. Go to
he quickly—she will never forgive you for
keeping her waiting ”
I thought of the fatal position of Germanicus
with Nero, in R icme’s tragedy, in the scene in
which Junie complains to the former of the
cruelty of lhe latter. I had prepared myself fur
a most violent reception, but ail my expecta
tions fell short of lhe reality. The princess, as
soon as she saw me, taxed me with want of
respect,and complained of not having found
me waiting to receive her at the door of my
hotel. This first ebullition of ill-humor being
exhausted. I said:
“ Madame, if your imperial highness had
been pleased to give me notice of your inten
tion to confer on me this honor, I should tin
doubtedly have observed the due etiquette.—
But, as lam not endowed with prescience it
was only a few minutes ago that I learned,
from my servants, that the sister of our august
monarch was in my house.”
•• His sister, sir! rather say an unfortunate, a
miserable slave!”
“Is it possible, madame, that enjoying, as
you do, lhe favor of his imperial majesty, you
can have any cause of complaint?”
° His favor! What a mockery ! Does he
show his favor by degrading me?”
“ No, madame. but by hiving elevated you
to the dignity ofan imperial princess—by hav
ing conferred upon you the Duchy of Guas
tella, and united you to a Roman prince!”
“ A brilliant marriage, truly!—an illustrious
rank! 1 have indeed reason to congratulate
myself when I see Caroline a queen, my sis
ter-in law a queen, and then Josephine’s daugh
ter a queen, or on the point of becoming one ;
and I suppose there is a kingdom in store for
Jerome's wife !—Eliza, too, will be crowned
by-and bye; while 1 am nothing. Hear me.
Prince Carnbaceres—go immediately to Bona
parte, and tell him that if he does not raise me
to (he dignity of queen. I have a terrible ven
geance in reserve for him !”
•• But which your sisterly affection will not
permit you to inflict.”
“ My affection.'—l hate him—he is a mon
ster !”
“Hush, princess!” I exclaimed, with some
alarm. •* Know, that in Franco, walls have
" I care noi—l defy his police—and will
tell him all I have said to his face I will seek
refuge in EngL or he shall perish by my
hand.”
1 became more and more alarmed, and I was
about to reply, when the emperor saved me
the trouble He opened (he door and present
ed himself to the astonished princess.
• Maniac !” he < xrlaiuted, “yon shall not go
o England, but to Clarenton ”
“Ah! so you have followed me.” she said.
“Then you thought I really intended to throw
myself into the Seine, as I threatened ! I have
come here to request Prince Carnbaceres to
intercede for me. Now. my dear Napoleon. 1
must have a crown I don’t care where it is
11.ike me Queen of Portugal—or Denmark—
w hat you will, f would even reign in Switzer
land or Corfu—no matter where—but a crown
I must have Am Ito tie the only one of lhe
family who does not wear one ? Olt. Napo
leon ! your unkindness will kill me !”
With these words she burst into a*flood of
tears. The capricious beauty had changed her
imperious tone to one of supplication and ten
der reproach. The Princess Pauline was cer
tainly to me more charming than ever 1 could
not wonder al the ascendency she gained over
the emperor. He was at first in a violent rage;
but his anger wax gradually soothed, and when
Pauline stopped short in her appeal and burst
jntj tears, he advanced to her, and said affec
lionately:
“ My dear sifter, why are you not satisfied ?
lam doing all I can for you. Kingdoms can
not be created at my will. Besides, your hus
band is not u Frenchman.”
“ Let me have a divorce, then.”
“ Heaven forbid !”
“ 1 will be queen, or I will go to London.”
“ You shall go to Vincennes.”
“ I defy you I will strangle myself as I en
ter.”
I know not what circumstance was recalled
to Napoleon’;* mind by this threat; but his brow
lowered, his eyes flashed, and he hit his lips ti;l
he almost drew blood ; and then, in a voice fal
tering with emotion, he exclaimed:
“So much the better, madam! You wi’l
rid me of a ermagant. whom I find more dif
ficulty to govern than all Europe together. I
*ee that you are only to be ruled by a rod of'
iron. I. therefore,command you to go imme
diately to Madame Mere, and there await the
orders which the prince arch counsellor shall
deliver to you frem me.”
“Then, will you make me queen I— l musi
be crowned.”
“ Really. Pauline, to bear you, one would
imagine that I had wronged you of your right
of succession to the late king, our father.”
I bad never before known the emperor to
have recourse to this sort of pleasantry, but I
often afterwards heard him employ similar lan
guage. On lhe occasion which 1 have just
been describing, this good humored touch of
satire bad an excellent effect. Pauline blushed,
and a rapid glance at lhe past reminded her ol
her humble origin, contrasted as it was with the
high rank to which her brother had raised her
A sudden change was effected in her feelings;
bhe hung down her head, and was evidently
mortified and ashamed. Napoleon asked her
whether she had come alone. She named one
of her ladies, and said she was waiting in an
other apartment.
“ Let her come in,” said the emperor.
I rang the order was given, and the lady
appeared. The emperor directed her not to
lose sight of the Princess Borghese, and then,
turning to me. he added:
“ Let us retire to your cabinet.”
I am at your majesty’s disposal.” replied
I ; “ but permit me first to observe the cere
mony due t<» lhe princess.”
“ Well, well! only be quick!”
He proceeded to my cabinet, and I escorted
lhe princess to her carriage. As soon as I had
got rid of her. I Hew to wait on lhe emperor
I found him walking about the room with hor
rid steps.
“ Well, prince,” said he, assoon as I entered.
“ this is one of lhe thousand disagreeable scenes
which, tyrant as they say i am I am compelled
to endure. This morning Pauline came to
me, commenced an altercation, assumed an
imperative tone, and ended by threatening to

j though it be in a narrow, confined thorough
i fare, and see upon the window-sills bright row
lof pois filled with gay geraniums, and bell
formed fuschias, we suppose that surely in thai

not wholly choked up and deadened with lhe
dust ami toil of 'he great city —one to whom
i the links are not yet entirely severed which
bind lhe heart to the loveliness of Nature,

taking a sadder turn, may imagine that some
lone-hearted creature, who may have been
fettered to his chamber for months or y ears, by
lingering maladies flies from his own racking
pains and thoughts, and seeks among those
very Howers, which seem so gay. and indica
tive of youth and happy hearts, to find a solace
and delight, which simple things hke these of
ten render to the wretched-hearted and the
weary. Wherever flowers are seen, carefully
tended, we may be sure there will be found

Touching Anecdote.
Ata Teacher’s Convention in Springfield,
Mr. Sweetzer, in an eloquent speech, illustra
ted the force of example by the following strik
ing anecdote :
A Dainter, while on a journey, accidentally
fell in with a most beautiful child, and was so
enraptured with its countenance that he imme
diately resolved to paint it, aud carried his de
termination into execution. Hanging the paint
ing in his studio, he made it his “ guardian an
gel,” and when he was desponding, or angry,
sought encouragement and calmness in gazing
into its beautiful face. He thought if he could
ever meet with its counterpart, he would paint
that also. Ye-irs passed away, and the painter
succeeded in finding no one so infernal ugly
looking as to satisfy his idea of his darling pic
ture ; but by chance, while vi*hing a prison,
after having almost given up in despair, he saw
a young man stretched upon lhe door of his
cell in a perfect paroxysm of rage. 'l’his struck
him as hi* desideratum, and he lost no time in
transferring the face to canvass, and placing it
side by side with his ideal purity, innocence,
and beauty. And who think y ou, the original
of his last painting ? The same that when a
child, had furni*hed him with his long-cherish
edand beautiful picture, “the innocent, happy,
and darling babe.” Tne change had been
w rought by the teachings he had been subject
ed to. and lhe examples set before him. “Let
us.” said Mr. Sweetzer, “take warning from
this lesson ; and do what we all can to rescue
angels from becoming fiends.”
A correspondent of Noah’s Times telis lhe
following anecdote of himself:
In our war with England, in 1813. we were
captured by the channel fleet and carrip'l on

Tomb of John Quincy Adams,
We find the following description of the
Tomb of Ex President Adams, in a late letter
of Grace Greenwood. It is interesting and
will repay a perusal :
But it was to the lomb of the greatest of the
name that we made our pilgrimage. We
found it in the quiet and modest churchyard
plain w<r«*v»wre, **•!•♦» nr» monument,
but a tattle bearing only in letters raised ou the
stone, the name ol J Q Adams.
All was uno-ieiitaiioiis. severely simple ami
purely republican as lhe life of the brave pa
triot, lhe eonscieiilioiis statesman, and humble
hearted Christi hi. gone to receive his reward
the peace, lhe rest, the love, and the glorious
immortality of God.
As i stood by the tomb, the events oflhe long
and illustrious life of the illustrious inmate, pas
sed in rapid review before me. 1 thought of ihe
noble faJier who bent w iih a smile above his
cradle, and of lhe great hearted mother who
nursed him. I thought of the more than Ro
man honor, virtue and greatness instilled into
his spirit with childhood’s earliest teaching. I
thought of the patient industry aud lofty am
bition in g ittieruig altogether, and hoarding
up all varieties of knowledge—oflhe high ami
siainless morality of his lite beset by many and
peculiar temptations, of all that grand and
beautiful preparation for the part by Heaven
assigned in the c mncilsofthe nation and in the
history of the republic. I thought of the sun
shine which had played around, and lhe storms
which had beaten upon his path, as he made
himself dearer to his country, and drew down
upon his iivad more and more of mad partisan
hate.
I thought of all, all. even to that hour when,
full of Iruior and years, he was stricken down
in the nation al hall.*, like a star struck suddenly
from t! e face of heaven. When with content
upon his lip* and a divine faith bearing up his
mhil, he walled in God’s love, lhe swill, silent,
coming of tiie angel of death ; and when his
last sighs went quivering up through the same
air winch, year* ago. hid oft times trembled
with the voice us his fervid and impassioned
eloquence.
Then a* I gazed upon the simple resting
place I said. “ I'hi* is the end of human great
nes*!’’ But my lips were profaned by lhe un
worthy sentence. True greatness and good

OGLEBY'S COTTON GINS.
STILL IMPROVING!
WE STILL CONTINUE to manufacture
Cotton Gins of the very finest order. For sev-
eral years past we have been able to sell all the fine
Friction Roller Gins at S 3 |»er saw, which we could
make, without the aid of a travelling agent. He
have made the gins, and the or rather the cot
ton. ginned by them have sold others as fast as we
could make them. We have not been content in bc
. ing able to sell, but it has been our aim to continue to
| improve. Each year the demand has increased, and
I aaour fine gins have been used, we think we can af
firm the planter has realized increased profits. It
has been truly said that the finest article of cotton
ever offered in the Savannah market has been raised
in Hancock county. The crops of several individ
uals have been esteemed of this character. Some
have had offers for the entire crop, to be grown,) at
the highest prices, an t in every instance our gins
have been used to produce this fine article. When
'feK!h r .l b ..-uW^TOllll'liUli H-tW "
instance where planters have managed their crops
neatly and ginned on our gins, they have received the
very highest market value —in many instances j ct.
over the highest market price.
It has been said Dy some persons, interested in
lessening the character of our gins, that they do not
standi s high in Hancock county as they have done.
Wp? hould think this a great mistake, from the fact
r 4.a increased demand in the county. We know
many opjiosed buying at first on account of the price,
but we are assured from the increased sale and from
gratuitous commendations of our gins, that the far
mers are beginning to view it good economy to buy of
us. We are also seldom able to sell a common gin,
which we make as low as other gin-makers. Our
last year’s gins have given even greater satisfaction
than any we have ever made before. We will deliver
o purchasers, at S 3 per saw, oiy fine Friction-Roller
Gins; or common kind from S 2 t 052.50, as in qual
ity. All communications will be immediately an
siered. G. T. OGLEBY & BROTHER.

CERTIFICATES:
Sparta, April 3rf, 1843.—We have bought, and
used the fine Friction-Roller Gins made by G. T.
Ogleby & Brother. His gins possess great durabil
ity ; the workmanship is of the very finest order.
The cotton ginned by them, as to quality, has met our
most sanguine expectations, and has in every instance
come up to what he has promised.
As we have been enabled to realize prices higher
than from common gins, we tlunk it is economy to
buy his fine gins.
