TAB cotillion PARTY ok TAB94th,
“As float tlie fancies of a gvorgitwis dream|
That vanished with tin- atorning’s earliest beam ;
As haunts the ear some half-reiueiuberetl strain
It once hath heard, and seems to hear again ;
As flowers whose Itenuty and whose bloom hath fled,
Each brisht leaf withered and each green one dead—
A grateful, an undying fragrance Itear,
To tell what blushing beauty once was there; —
So turns my memory to that brilliant sight
When wit and beauty held their festal night;
When the thronged hall its glittering groups dis
placed
Os nature's loveliness, by art arrayed ;
Os graceful forms that mocked the Sculptor's art,
And eyes whose glance* reached the coldest heart,
Os all that beauty loves or taste admires,
Os all that valor warms or genius fires.”
The winter season of amusement lias again
arrived and brought with it its wonted accom
paniment of pleasant associations. The ball
given on the 34th inst. went off very pleasantly
and with that harmony which adds so much
to the delight of such entertainments. “High!
and left.” and away they go in the maze of
the quadrille—all was life, beauty and fashion.
And thus they would have gone on—Heaven
knows how long—but old Time, the cheat,
during expectation a motionless
I max, becomes, in fruition, an unsubstantial
intst-wreath that vanishes almost before seen.
What must have been the feelings of the old
Bachelor, when beholding a scene like this—
where the old, the young, Ihe gay and beau
tiful, all partook of the joyous delights the
evening alTordcd. lie must have turned a
gray dejected, and contrasting it with his so
litary room, likened himself to a puffed
up pincushion on an empty bureoti, and if he
did not resolve ere the morning dawn to
rliaitge his lone situation, we regret his fate,
f The managers and serve the commendation
pf their friends who figured in the dance and
at the feast, for their attention. Wonder if
(here is any surplus—might it not he put out

STUART’S WASHINGTON.
This elegant full length copperplate line en
graving of the “great Genefiii,” from Stuart’s
celebrated painting in Faneuil Hall, as engrav
ed by Kelly, we have had the pleasure of
I viewing, and it appears to us to l>e us full of the
I spirit, beauty, and charm of the original paint
j ing, as the celebrated artist could lie expected
I to preserve. It is extremely difficult adequate-
I ly to describe the; grand beauties and effects of
I this picture. It is one of the most perfect ex
-1 eeuted engravings we have ever seen. The
i agent for the disposal of this engraving is in
our city, and puts up at the. Alutamaha Hotel.
We learn that he wilfeall on our citizens, who
will then have an opportunity to see the fea
■“tmrs'of'onc^in print, upon whose like we are
inclined to think the world will never again
look.
Pohthait Painting. —ln our columns of to-
Vlay will be found an advertisement relating to
•this branch of the fine arts. Mr. Harding is
[ a gentleman who has had much experience
and practice in his profession, and his paintings
are among the I test we have ever seen. Wo
were much pleased with the striking likeness
w hich his (mrtraits bear to the original—and
would advice all who arc desirous to cncour- !
age native talent, to embrace this opportunity
to have their portrait* painted. How pleasing
sold gratifying to friends and relatives, to look
upwa the portrait* of an old acquaintance; es
pecially when time in his onward course has
taken him to that ‘ bourne front whence no
traveller returns.” How many thousand re

dearly do we value a relic of this kind. All
who are desirous to preserve their likeness can
have it done by calling on Mr. Harding.
The penny papers of New York constitute
a most important feature in the. daily literature
of that city. A few years ago there was not
such a thing known; they now circulate to the
amount of 10,000 or 50.000 a morning, and
furnish the best police reports, the host legal
reports, the t>est current news, by far, to be
met with in that city. Even in literary mat
ters, they are not behind hand. The most in
comparable exercise of imagination which has
appeared in the English language since Gulli
vers travels, the “Lunar Discoveries,” appear
ed first in the Sun, and was written by Richard
Adam* I.ocke, the editor of that paper, now
of the New Kra and the other* have, very
frequently, articles of high character and
merit. The daily information of the city could
I not now, in fact, be supported without them ;
* and in the respectability of their general cha
k racter, they amply deserve the support they
I receive. Among the most interesting is Ben-
I nett’s Herald —always full of life, vigor and
W wit—it never frets, hut jogs along, taking the

FROM MILLEDGEVILLE.
Governor Gii.mkk has issued an order, calling
for volunteers to protect the Inhabitants of the
country near the Okefinokee, which we doubt
! not will be gallantly responded to.
General Charles Floyd, in a letter to the Go
vernor considers 600 men necessary for defen
sive warfare on the frontier while the war lasts
in Florida, but remarks that “to continue the
explorations of the Okefinokee, establish posts
; inside the swamp, and construct roads to them,
1 and carry on at the same time active offensive
operations against the enemy, #OO Infantry and
#OO mounted men would be necessary.”
The General states, that his command is ra
| pidly diminishing, and in a few weeks will be
entirely out of service. His letter dated 4th
inst., will be found on our second page.

Milledgeville, 17th Jan. 1830. S
[ORDER]
The Commander-in-Chief has received a re
quisition from the Secretary of Mar. for five
hundred men to serve for three months, unless
sooner discharged. The object of this call for
troops, is to protect the inhabitants of the coun
try in the neighborhood of the Okefinokee
swamp from the dcprepatiolls and hostile at
tacks of the Seminole and Greek Indians. The
Indians have been driven for the present, from
all their fastnesses within the state, by the per
severing activity of the troops under the com
mand of Gen. Floyd ; the swamps which have
been hitherto considered inaccessible to white
men, have been explored, and suitable military
stations established along the whole line of our
exposed frontier.
The time of service of the troops under the
command of Gen. Floyd is about to expire.—
The Commander-in-Chief calls upon the orga
nized volunteer companies and patriotic citi
zens to form companies to supply their place
immediately, that the advantages w hich have
been gained may not la- lost.
The organization will be one regiment of
eight companies of sixty men each, to he moun
ted or not, at the option of the companies, and
armed with muskets.
The place of rendezvous will be Traders’
Hill, on the St. Marys river. Volunteer com
panies desirous of serving their country, will
give immediate notice to the commander-in
chief.
By order of the Commander-in-Chief.

As yet,only the mint in Philadelphia has issu

follow, as it is found that Philadelphia is an ex
ceedingly difficult place to diffuse the coins
from. It is found that they diffuse much bet

WESTERN INDIANS—A LITTLE SI
OUX GIRL BURNT AT THE STAKE
BY THE PAWNEES.
Couxcii. BLUFF, Oct, 15,1838.
The Sioux and Pawnees, only 160 miles
from here, are in constant hostility. This
war has continued for about 200 years. So
the Indians here (the Pottawatamies say.
The Pawnees in a war expedition into the
Sioux county last Febuary, took prisoner a
Sioux girl only 14 years old, whom they
kept about two months, until corn planting,
and fattened her as they would a hog. They
, then determined to make a sacrifice of her.
This they kept to themselves. Two days
before the sacrifice, a council of eighty of
the warriors and head men of the nation
met to see whether they would accept the
offers of two traders of the American fur
company who offered them valuable pre
sents if they would release her to them, so
that they might let her return home. But
all would not do. A majority of the coun
cil was for a sacrifice, of course those in fa
- vor of her release could do nothing.
At the breaking up of the council, the pri
soner was brought out and accompanied by
the whole counsel, was led from house to
house ; when they gave her a small billet
of wood and a little paint which she handed
to the warrior next her, and lie passed it on
to the next until every wig wham had con
tributed some wood and paint. On the 22d
of April she was led out to be sacrificed,
hut not until she came upon the ground did
she conjecture her fate. They had chosen
the place between two trees which grew
within five feet of each other. They then
made her ascend the three bars tied across
from tree to tree, her feet resting on the
bars below, where a slow fire kindled be
neath would just reach her feet. Two war
riors then mounted the bars, and there stan
ding one on each side of her held fire under
her arm pits until she was almost dead.
Then at a given signul they all shot arrows
in her body as thick that hardly a pin could
he placed between them. The arrows were
immediately taken from her flesh and it w as
all cut from her bones in pieces not larger
than half a dollar, and put in baskets. All
this was done before she was quite dead.
Then the principle chief took a piece of the
flesh and squized it until a drop of blood,
fell upon the corn which was just planted,
and this was done to all they had in the
ground.
This is the way they treat prisoners of
war out here. The foregoing was told me
by a trader of indesputablc veracity, who
was on the ground at the time. In June
lasi, the narrator’s wife’s brother was taken
prisoner by the Sioux and treated in the
same manner.
1 have visited the Ottocs, 8 miles from
here, and have been forcibly struck with
their superstitious burial of the dead. When
a warrior of note dies, they kill one of the
best horses of the nation on his grave and
then cut olf the tail and tie it to a pole fif
teen feet high and there leave il. They be
lieve the spirit of the horse will serve the
spirit of the warrior in the next world.
The “ schoolmaster” is again abroad. The
following is from a paper published in the in
terior of Kentucky:
“ ‘Solitary and alone,’ I stand in the corner,
an huinbell candy dit to represent Hardin Cos
in the loer house of the neckst kentuckc legis
lates Jacob Giums,
