*%aFlow |in>mi Tiicmlsi)’ Morning;, Janiiar) IDilNliO. 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 at 30days interest (we know of several lakers) Snnd have another ? 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 collection* does it recall to memory—and how | 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 , world as it goes, like a “fat Alderman,” with a | smiling, good humored countenance, that § soothes us into contentment with ourself and around us. The editor of the Savannah Georgian thus notices our first number: “THE MeINTOSH COUNTY HERALD, AND DARIEN COMMERCIAL REGISTER.

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. Mu.i.cncovu.ix, Jan. 23. HEAD QUARTERS, fGa.) ) 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. MILLER GRIEVE, Aid-de-Camp. BANK OF DARIEN. The following gentlemen have been elected Directors of the Branch Bank of Darien, in l/illedgeville—lverson L. Harris, Win. Ten uillc, J. Beall, Geo. L. Demining, and Otis Childs. On Saturday last, (says the Federal Union,) I. L. Harris, Esq., was rc-clccted Pre sident. Goi.n Eagi.fs. —The Globe states that this beautiful coin, after a long absence, has reap peared in our country. The mint at Philadel phia is striking them, and • quantity has arriv ed here. It is not only a noble coin, hut, in its improved appearance, a fine specimen of art. As yet,only the mint in Philadelphia has issu ed this coin; but the branch mints will soon 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 ter from other points, and therefore the coinage of the branches will be sedulously attended to. It is now thirty-five years since an eagle has been coined at our mint. The First Presbyterian Church in Wull-st., New York, have raised the salary of their Pastor, the Rev. Dr. Phillips, to four thousand dollars per annum, and presented him with a donation of fifteen hundred dollars. At the present term of the Superior Court of Chatham county, Joseph Lyman, Esq. of Brunswick, was admitted Attorney Solicitor and Counsellor of the several Courts in this state. A Maeon paper of the 22d hist, informs us that they were visited on the 21st by a regular mm ir storm , which continned several hours.— The flakes of snow fell fast and thick, and the ground was soon covered to the depth of two inches ; but owing to the warmth of the earth, they soon disappeared. Arrival or Specie. — An importation of spe cie from abroad, to the amount of .$30,900, ar rived at Maeon, on Wednesday last, (says the Messenger) for the Oernulgce Bank.

From the Chicago Democrat 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, the scientific schoolmaster.” MARRIED.
