A BEAUTIFUL SONG.
The following eloquent effusion written by cur
excellent friend, Judge Meek, and dedicated to a
beautiful young lady, has been set to music bv a
gentleman of this city :
COME TO THE SOUTH.
BY A. B MKEK, ESQ , OF ALABAMA.
Oh ! come to the South, sweet beautiful one
’ Fis the chin? of the heart, his the shrine oi the sun,
Where the sky ever shines with a passionate glow,
And the tiowers spread their ticasures ot ciiuison
and snow ;
Where the breeze o’er bright waters, waffs incense
along,
And gay hi da are glancing in beauty and song ;
Where summer snide* ever, o’er niotinutin and plain,
And the best gifts of Eden uushudovved remain !
Oil, come to the South,
The shrine of the sun.
And dwell in its bovvers,
Sweet, beauti.ul one.
Oh ! come to the South, and I’ll build thee a home,
W her<* winter shall never intrusively coiue.
The queen-like catalpa, the myrtle ami pine,
The gold fruited orange, the ruby geum.ed vine,
bhali bloom toond thy dwelling, and shade thee at
While biids ot all music keep amorous tune .*
By the gush ol glad fountains, we will rest us at ove,
No trouble to vox us, no sorrow to g ieve !
Oil, come to the South.
The shrine of the sun,
And dAell in its lowers,
Sweet, beautiful one!
*rh.conm to the south, ’tis the home of the heart;
No sky like its own, can deep passion impart ;
The g ! ow of its summer is felt in the soul,
And love keepelh ever his fervent control !
Oh, here uould thy beauty most brilliantly beam,
And thy life pass away like some delicate dream !
Each wish ol thy heart should realized be,
And this beautiful land seem an Eden ‘o lime !
Then conic to the South,
The shrine of the sun,
And dwell in it- bowers,
Sweet,beautiful one!
A SONG OF THE PAST.
BY R 8. AKDRQS.
Oh. pleasant is their memory, those forest-walks of
ours,
Those walks amid the fields and woods, in search of
pleasant flowers ;
Those bine commuiiings with the earth, with
and trees, and streams,
Till o’er our spirits came a spell like music heard in
dreams.
Dost mind thee of that pleasant morn, that bright,
blight morn in May,
When down the lane, and o’er the bridge, we took
our happy way ?
The sweet sky smiled to see its face reflected in the
brook,
And violets and daisies peeped out from every nook-
The robin warbled by our path, the blackbird sang
around,
A i>d from her hiding place the thrush filled all the
glen with sound ;
The leaves made music in the wind, the streamlet on
its w-ay,
And even ti.o very injects seemed keeping holiday.
Oh happy morn shines again ! 1 see the m >ssy
Beneath whoser jMppful shadow our weaiy limbs
were thrown/^
The voices of the oiritfftd.woods are in my ear again,
And the pit’a.-uiitTuwers s&eiu springing about uiy
feet as then.
And si ill do T weary were our hearts.
When we were slowly turning back from Nature’s
world toArt’B;
And how the sky grew dim above, and dim the earth
beneath,
Till beauty faded from our eyes, and music ceased to
hr rathe.
Oh, pleasant is their memory, those forest-walks ol
ours,
Those walks amid the fields and woods in search of
pleasan’ flowers ;
And often from tho storms of life my spirit steals
a way,
And lives again the pleasant hours of that bright morn
in May.
MISCELLANY.
THE GOLDEN CLASP;
OR,THE PERJURED GOLDSMITH.
BY PHOF. J. H. INGRAHAM.
PART J.
A modest and exceedingly pretty young
girl,plainly atured, entered one ol the gold
smith's stores on street, and seeing
that a gentleman was eugaged with the pro
prietor, shruuk aside near the door until
he should be at leisure. The assistants
were alsu occupied with customers whose
dress and appearance showed tuem to be
long to the class ol the rich, and so she was
suffered to remain for some lime standiug
there before she could be attendedto. The
gentleman, who was a line, noble looking
person, with a remarkably pultshed address
seeing Iter wailing, courteously stood aside,
aud said to the goldsmith—
“Do not occupy yourself with me now,
Mr. Broochard. 1 can examine these
watches by myself, while you see what tins
young persons wants, who has beer wailing
so long and patiently to get an uppolunily
of addressing you.”
•• V\ hat do you wish, miss?” asked the
goldsmith, with a look winch conveyed a
reproof to her lor interreuptmg him while
eugaged with a customer ol mure value to
him.
The giti hesitatingly approached the coun
ter, and taking l'ruiu her bosom asiuallgold
clasp, bent over to him and said in a low,
and trembling voice—
“l wish, sir, you would be so kind as to
keep this lor a lew days and let rue have
seven dollars on it.”
Low as she spoke, her soft trembling tones
attracted the ears of Col. McHenry, the
gentleman who was present; and he turned
to observe her face, and hear the reply of
tlie goldsmith to this limid and painfully
uttered request. The gudstmh took the
clasp scorululiy beiweeu his fingers, and
then throwing it down, said sharply to
her—
‘■This is no pawnbroker’s shop, girl; and
if it was, that tiling is not worth two dol
lars.”
“It is of inestimable value to me, 6ir— in
deed it is the only valuable tiling lliat 1
have,” answered site, earnestly, and her
cheek, slightly flushed at the rude mauner
of his reply.
*■] dou’t know what you may value it at,’’
he answered, with a could laugh, glancing
at Col. McHenry, whom he saw severely
observing him; ‘*l would not give you six
sliillings for it.”
“Hut, sir,” plead the girl, unconscious of
being overheard, “1 must have seven dollars
to-day, uud 1 have no other way of getting
it, and I was in hopes, sir, that you might
let tne have that sum on it; for 1 will, cer
tainly, cotne back and take il up again.”
“1 tell you this,” answered Air. Broochard
angrily, ‘‘l keep no pawnbroker’s shop, go
to the Jews. 1 ’
“They won’t give me but two dollars, and
I want seven, sir.”
“ And so you tbmk to get it out of me’”
The young girl was about to speak again,
but, as if not knowing whst further argu
ment to urge, hesitated, snd turning slowly
[VOL. V.—NO J 7.
away, when she cheeked herself and again
spoke to him—
“ Sir,” said, she in a low thrilling voice of!
earnest entreaty, “my mother is lying very <
til, and our rent is due at twelve o’clock to- |
day, and the persons we sew for, having
disappointed us in our pay, I have up other.]
resource but this! Oh, sir, will you take!
this clasp, only for a few days, and i will j
then repay you?”
Mr. Broochard felt that Col. Mcllemy’s j
eyes were upon him, waiting an answer,
and as he wished him to think him a tmn ‘
of business, (which meant in his notion a
man without heart,) lie answered prompt
ly and sternly, “No ! Do you think we are
simpletons here to throw away money in
this way. If you have nothing more to say
please siand aside for customers. Well, j
colonel, what do you think of these watch- i
es? Latest importations—full jewelled, and 1
warranted in all points. 1 will sell you the j
one you have just laid down for one hun- i
dred and ninety.five dollars.”
The gentleman, however, was not heed ‘
ing him, but watching the young girl whom !
he saw leave the counter and vvitli a heavy,
drooping step approached the door. Her!
face had struck him for its sweet intelligent
loveliness, and her modesty had fur him an
irresistible charm, hut her plea of poverty ;
and her eloquent appeal to tlte tradesman,
deeply interested his feelings and enlisted |
his sympathies in her behalf. He had* si
lently observed the progress of her inter
view with him, with emotions of contempt
for the one, ami pity for the other.
Her hand was on the knob ot the door,
when advancing towards her—
“ You asked, I believe, for seven dollars?”
he said, with a gentle interest in his lone
that at onre awakened hope tn tier heart,
and brought the light to her eyes and the
lino to her cheeks as she differently answer
ed—
.‘‘Yes sir; I would not have been so bold
and urgent but”—
‘■None too much so. There is a ten dol
lar note—l have no small bill.” And lie
placed it in her hand.
“Sir, you are too kind”—
‘‘Not a word. I atn happy to do you a
service.”
“ Take the clasp, here; though I am
ashamed to otter it to you, since the gentlo
mwi says it is so valueless. But to me it is
as valuable as life, and 1 foolishly tßought it
must be to others.”
“I do not want it, child, ’’ answered Col.
McHenry, feelingly putting aside the hand
which urged it upon him.
“Indeed, sir, you must take it, for l shall
feel in some degree less under obligation
to a stranger. Besides, I wish to call and
redeem it. Will you give me your address
sir?” and as she spoke, he still declining
the jewel, she laid it on the case.
“ Oh, no matter—but if you insist—the
United States Hotel.”
‘‘Thank you, sii;you can never know
the blessings toothers that will follow your
k ndness to me to-day ’’ Thus speaking
and looking upon him with an expression of
gratitude in her teaiful eyes, she l-ft Ihe
shop, forgetting the golden clasp which she
laid upon lha’ show cake.
“Will you look at one of these watches
now, Col. McHenry ?” superciliously asked
the goldsmith without raising bis condemned
eyes.
“No sir,” answered the gentleman stern
ly. And taking his gloves and cane went
from the shop of the avaricious goldsmith,
who, too close to tisk a tulle to rel.eve the
wants of a poor family, probably lost a large
amount by the purchases his wealthy cus
tomer might have made, and his self-respect,
such as it was; for avarice always shrinks
into Us shell before the broad sun of benev
olence.
“ Now there goes a man who throws
away his money upon vagrants; because i
keep mine to support my family,” said the
goldsmith, looking after him, ‘‘he thinks me
a miser and I think him a fool. Oh ! here
is that clasp after all! —she left it for hint on
ihe show case, and he was too proud to take
it away ii he saw it. Seven dollars! It is
not worth more than five.”
He opened it as he s; oke, and taking up
a sharp instrumeni, tried the fineness of the
gold.
“It is good old Mexican gold. It might
liave cost twenty dollars once. Ah! what a
star ol diamonds wi'lnn it!” be exclaimed
as, in working about with the point of the
steel, he discovered a cavity. Twelve large
diamonds of the purest water! This is in
deed valuable! Letiuesee—they are worth
at least five hundred dollars! What value
to ask so much. No she could not either;
for 6he would not have let it go for so small
a sum, or else asked for nearer its value.—
1 suspect site was ignorant of this cavity,
which 1 detected only by accident: she has
probably stolen it. All, ah, Abraham Broo
chard, thou lias made a good morning's
work of ii!” he said cxultingly to himself.
Then looking round among hisshopboys,
to see if he weie unobserved, he carefully,
yet with a careless air, locked the clasp
in his private drawer, and taking out the
key, placed it in his pocket. He had hard
ly done sc, when Col. McHenry re-entered,
and w ilhout speaking or looking at him,
cast his eyes upon the show-case for the
clasp, which he recollected, after going out,
the young girl had laid it down but did not
take it up again, so he turned back for it-
Abraham Broochard was very busily en
gaged in replacing the watches in their doe
skiu coverings, and preserved silence and
ignorance. At length Col. McHenry
spoke—
“ That young person laid her clasp on the
case, sir, which 1 neglecied to take up. It
were a pity it should be lest, she valued it
so highly.”
“The clasp, oh! oh! I have not seen it,
sir. She took it up again.”
“Did you see her?”
“ Yes, oh yes! I had my eyes on her,
and said at ihe same time, you’d never see
your ten dollars of the clasp again.”
The gentleman eyed him steadily an in
stant, and then glancing around the show
case again as il in search of u, he quit the
shop.
PATT I|.
Several days elapsed, and Col. McHenry
had quite forgotton the circumstances just
narrated, when, as he was passing down
Arch street, he felt his sleeve suddenly
pulled by someone whom he heard running
behind him, and looking around lie belte.d
with a cheek glowing from the pursuit,
Ahe young girl he had seen at the gold
smith’s.
“Oh, sir, I atn so happy to have found
yon,” she said, at onee addressing him, as
he slopped and with pleasure listened to her.
“I was at length enabled to get my pay.
and by other work have earned enough to
repay you the ten dollars you so kindly
gave me, You don’t know the good you
did, sir—the sulfenng you relieved—the
evil your timely aid averted. Here is the
Lrjfcißey sir.”
J “Nay, my good girl, Ido not want it. 1
|made you a present of it at the lime, and 1
d:d not expect you to return it. I am, how
ever, glad to find you have the disposition
to do so, and that I was not deceived in my
esi filiation of you.”
“You must take it, sir;” she said with in
genuous earnestness, “i sliotrld be drs
nessfd to he longer under pecuniary obli
gation to an entire stranger. Besides, sir,
1 would like my clasp, if you please.”
“Did you not take it from the case where
you laid it down?” lie asked, with surprise
and justly dir/eted suspicion.
. “No, sir; indeed, sii, 1 hope ii is not lost
It was given to me by—by ”
I “A sweetheart?” he added smilingly.
: “He is now—dead, sir,” she answered
I with overflowing eyes.
| “You do well to value i\ I did not take
:it up. Are you sure you left it there?”
| “Y'es. sir; hoping you would take it and
I keep ii nil ] pajq you.’’
| “Weil, my child, I have not got it, but
! I believe the goldsmith has. Let us tOlo
him”
On their arrival, Mr. Broochard denied
ever having seen it since she went out, and
that he saw her place it in her bosom as she
let! the shop. The young lady turned pale,
and was inconceivably distressed.
‘Come with me ; 1 will find the clasp for
you;” said Col. McHenry, offering her his
arm and leaving the goldsmith’s with her.
“ I do hope 1 shall find it, sir ;” she said,
as they walked on. “It was Rupert’s last
dying gift. It was given him in Cuba by a
rich lady whose life he saved by rescuing
her from the water, lie was-a sailoj, sir,
and had but little to leave me but his memo
ry, and my po r clasp. Oh, sir, if it is lost I
shall never forgive myself for offering to
pledge it. But, sir, our extremity was very
grhu.”
Col, Mcllenry stopped with her at a jus
tice's office, and briefly and clearly made his
complaint, and in a few minutes Mr. Abra
ham Broochard was brought by an officer
into the presence of the magistrate. He ap
peared to he in great trepidation, and was
pale as ashes ; for he had begfi suddenly tak
oii without warning his counter,
leaving his shop in cliaige of his astonished
assistants. Col. McHenry arid the young
lady both being sworn, deposed that they
Both had last seen the clasp on the show
case, where each went out and left it, tho
former further deposing that he had but gono
a ,few steps from the door before he returned”
and found it missing, and no one in the vicin
ity hut the defendant.
The goldsmith was then called up to ba
sworn as to his knowledge of the facts. He
approached the stand where the magistrate
held the Bible, and laid his hands upon it with
a perceptible tremor of his whole body, but
love of money was stronger than the fear of
the law, and he took the oath. It appearod
as if he would have sunk through the floor
when he did it ; hut the moment it was dona
he recovered his audacity. At this moment
the officer, who, at the suggestion of Col.
McHenry, had been privately despatched by
the justice with a search warrant to the shop
of the goldsmith now entered and placed
something in the magistrate’s hand, after
briefly whispering to him.
“Did you ever see this ornament before J”
asked the magistrate, holding up the clasp
before the young girl.
“ Oh, it is my clasp—it is ray clasp !” she
cried, springing forward.
“Yes—it is tho same,” answered Col. Mc-
Henry.
“And did you ever see it before, sir ?” de
manded the justice sternly, holding it in the
direction of the goldsmith, who had seen it
at the first, ami was appalled with fear and
consternation. Instead of replying, he utter
ed a wild, hysterica! laugh, and fell his length
in convulsion upon the floor.
He was a few weeks afterwards taken
Ironi prison, and tried and condemned for
perjury, hut his reason forsook him, and in
stead of the gallows, he is now raving in a
mad house. I’lius was avarice and parsi
mony, and indiflerence to the sufferings of
otlierb punished in this life ; the acts of this
selfish man showing to all how that acquisi
i iveness wrongly directed is fatal to its pos
sessor.
Col Mcllenry proved to boa bachelor;
and though a little turned of thirty, his
heart was keenly alive to all the finer sensi
bilities of our naiure. He could feel for the
down trodden poor, and sympathize with the
unfortunate. To this truth none could more
positively attest than the young friend of the
“golden clasp,” lor ere two inomln had wan
ed she rejoiced in the euphonic title of Mrs.
Col. Mclleniy, surrounded with all the ap
pliances of wealth that a grateful heart like
hers could enjoy or even desire. Her poor
atiiicied mother was well provided for, when
she recovered her health, and happiness and
prosperity smiled upon all.
