DARIEN AND STi MARYS LINE OF
STAGES.
, , Mb. Editor: —Allot! me through the medi-
I of your journal, to <all the aiietiii n ofthe
I public, to Ik'new stags route between this
I place and Sr Marys, established by Major Blue.
Induced to try this route, I was agreeably dis
appointed, as I found the accommodations far
superior to any interior, stage route in this
section. The stage was” truly elegant uml
comfortable—the horses good, and the driver
very skilful and attentive. 1 hope the enter
prising proprietor will receive the hearty stqj.
port, as well as thanks, of ail travellcrs-for lie
I certainly deserves it.
An ogp Trav Win.
L are pleased to learn that this line is now
V* t-.loperation. The stag's and horses are
oTlkltstkiw), and the divers skilful; and
we have confidence llul the
proprietor will make liislYue-v*.. -thy ofpwo
’ Miage. The advantages and accommodation .
thus afforded the cjiizetisof St. Marys, and the j
southern people generally, will unquestionably
render this route the general thorough-fare for
southern travellers to reach Savannah or
Charleston. Heretofore the citizens of St.
Marys, and in fact the whole section of the
■ south on the seaboard, have labored under
many disadvantages in travelling north—and
now that a good line of stages has been estab
lished, we anticipate that it w ill be preferred to
any other inode of conveyance.
Forth* information of the public we will
state that the 1 me of stages between Darien and
Savannah, has changed hands, and we are told
the present proprietors contemplate increasing
the speed of this line. Independent of this
line of stages, travellers desiring to go north,
can find at all limes steamers departing from
thiscity for Savannah.
JUDGE CHARLTON’S POEMS.
We have been politely furnished with a copy
of this neat little volume of poetry, and have
enjoyed a pleasant hour in its perusal, which
has been doubly enhanced by the fact of its
being the production of native genius. The
volume contains some fugitive pieces of the
late Dr. T. J. Charlton, (the brother of Judge
C.) a gentleman in whose premature death the
literature of our country lost one of its bright
est ornaments, and lhginence of Medicate ‘
sustained a Material loss,
f .fudge Charlton has tong and favorably
PRaen known to the public as a polished writer
his contributions to the Knickerbocker
sgazine have gained for him a high reputa
tion. We earnestly recommend the work to
the public, and feel confident that all who pur
chase will be gratified with its perusal. A few
copies are for sale at this office.
Bellville City —A few days ago we endi
t*d ait article relative to this new city, about
King built, which we perceive by our ex
, (Range, has attracted general attention. The
■eat natural advantages that this city posses
fcs are too well known to be repeated by us
i-and it must appear evident to all disinter
■ted persons, that in the course of a very
■tort time, she will outstrip, both in point
■ commerce ana population, many other pla-
Jes, South of the Potomac. The following
■rude we clip from the Brunswick Advocate,
I paper conducted with much ability, and from
t gentlemanly tone merits, and we doubt not
ceives, a very liberal patronage :
M ‘ Our worthy neighborof the “Herald” over
the river, we observe has recently struck a
new vein. He has discovered that a charter
■as obtained at the recent session of the Le
■siature to connect the waters of the Sapelo
ip' l Alatamaha Rivers by a canal or rail road,
||>d has already commenced building up a
commercial city at the former point, which is
to be known by the beautiful name of “Bell
kide,” probably so called in honor of our wor-
Jpy friend. A glowing description is given
of the immense benefits to be derived by the
I new speculation, and also the large amount of
jßDduce which is to be annually transported
tef this “London of America,” as soon as the
project is carried into effect. —This all looks
very well on paper ; but brother Bell will find
totyfc making an up-hill business before he gets
f gh, or we arenoprophet. Come. Come,
Bhf.f'Herald,” dont annihilate us Brunsvvick
etjfn such a hurry if you please—if we are
not going ahead as fast as we might be, we are
■ least “holding our own.’!
WWe have not the inclination to an
j Jpdlate Brunswick—but on the contrary shall
MB’ ays be pleased to hear of her prosperity;
®d it is a gratification to learn that our neigh
ifeitir of the Advocate is “holding his own.” If
irech is really the case, and we have every rea
son to believe it, he has better luck in these
“piping times” than the generality of folks—
for we mu* confess that others “hold ourown.’
But this has nothing to do with the new city
in question, and time we think will verify all
we have said upon the subject. With the best
wishes for our Southern neighbors, w e cannot
resist tlvj belief, that they vetF ere long see
theijk brigheet hopes eclipses by the embryo
city of Bellville.
Tub Rheumatism.—Kind thou
never been afflicted with the rheumatism 11
If thou hast not—and methinks thou art but
too happy in thine ability to negative the
query—then, though thou hast escaped one of
the most annoylag vexatious, and time endur- ]
ing ills to which our corporeal scrap of de
praved humanity is subject; thongs thou hast :
escaped the uncoveted delights of the sleep-dc- J
J served pillow, and the joyless day, and number
less and nameless painful and pangful (ex- j
cuse the term) tales from incontinently gar
rulous and rebellious nerves; yet hast thou lost
(smile not, gentle reader,) some valuable les
sons, both in morals and in physics. Thou art i
yet but a child in the art of patient and uncom- f
plaining forbearance under trials that, though
the Stern philosophy of a Diogenes might ban
ish moisture from thine eyes, wowld make
thine agonized carcass weep incontinent at
every pore. Thou hast read the book of Job
and imagine, perhaps, that thou didst under
stand it; and in the simplicity a’nd guileless
ignoranre of thine heart, didst suppose that
thou couldst relish us keenly as might, the
beauty, depth, and pathos, of its peerless and
poetic thoughts,—aye, thou mayest even have
dreamed thyself imbued with a proper degree
of sympathy for tbebeiug, whose sufferings
an inspired pen hartnere attempted, through
the imperfect veilic ,e of language, to shadow j
forth. Li tme not offend tky comfortable self
complacency, most delectable reiwlur, when 1
inform thee, that the whole is but a dream , j
from which a single attack of rheumatism of j
the right kind, would as effectually if not as
suddenly awake thee, as a violent clap of thun
der from a dinner nap. Thou hast yet but
half learned the futility, the fulsome, and de
ceitful flattery of worldly hopes. When thy
prospects gather around them the golden halo
of prmperity’s niiil summer, ILpe whispers
in thine ear, “To-morrow shall be as this day;”
and thy glad heart reveals on the frail assur
ance, as though the present bore the unaltera
ble seal of eternity.
The vheumatism effectually cures a man of
such lollie* If she leaves him no such ugree
stife dreams to sleep upon, she leaves him no
disagreeable and unexpected realities on
which to awoke. Her constant, faithful, and
alas ! too impressive admonition is, “Boast not
thyself of to-morrow.”
Thou hast observed the thermometer, and
the striking and delicate accuracy with which
it is made to indicate, by the subtle expansion
of its fluid, the slightest variations in temper- j
ature. Thou bast admired, perhaps, the inge
nuity that could thus trace out the action of
nature’s elements, and render them subservi
ent to the wants of plan. All this may have
occurred to thee, and more. But thou has
never had the exciting consciousness of being
thyself ideuticalUone of these weather-telling
machines; ofbep( able, without even the wish,
by the mere f<*ce of nervous energy, acting
independent u'the will, to detect variations in
a bona fide thermometer
would not to’much as wink at; —nor, reader,
canst thou tvc~ possess it, without first wine- 1
ing under thejjowerpfu chronic ache. When
thou hast thus Seen converted into a tube and
graduated scale, lb o * l wilt find thyself a won
theraometer, as mlteb superior to the mercuri
al one of Fahrenheit or Itemuur in delicacy,
as sugared pastry loasaw-diist pudding. They I
will not have to place thee in an exposed sit
uation, or in the shide, to gather from thy
ntechaftlUjt,'i.an-ini*hine a chronicle of tem
perature.’ Swaddle thee as they may in wool- j
lens, scorch thee as they msy, thou art still the
same unvarying truth-teller. Not a frost-laden
north-easter, or a beggarly cloud, can steal a
march upon thee. Their approach is prognos
ticated seemingly before they came.
But we must stop, and cut our article short.
Our old acquaintance the Ague has called, and
whether we will or not, demands our atten
tion.
Important from Florida. Brilliant Vic
tory ! —A late Tallahassee paper infotms us
that the army of the U. S. has captured
another Squaw ! No regulars were injured in
the fight. We hope that Congress will vote a
leather medal to the gallant officer in command.
Services like this should not be overlooked by
stern indifference or cold neglect. A monu
ment of mud perhaps would not be inappropri
ate to transmit this daring exploit to posterity, I
and tell unborn generations of the deeds of
herioism which have been performed in the
“Land of Flowers.”

Remarks. —The average temperature of the ]
month Ims been much higher than that of De
! eember although at limes it has been colder
than any period during that month.—ln the
early part of the present month the mercury
stood at 22 at sunrise, ami ice was formed an
inch in thickness, in exposed situations. Twice
during the month it was 70,- which is about
ordinary summer temperature for the interior
of New-York. The last few days of the month
were “delightfully agreeable,” and few would
lie willing to exchange such a temperature for
the 4 feel of snow which the Yorkers nrc en

think that Mr. Fox has acted so hastily in
the matter, and lam disposed to lielieve
that the story has grown to this, from being
whispered about. Both these gentlemen
appeared in perfect amity at Mr. Blair’s
party on Tuesday* night, where appearan
ces were decided anti-tvarlike. This morn
ing, the subject was laid before the Sen

! gorent the whole correspondence between
Messrs. Forsyth and Fox, although if there
is any blame in the matter it must rest on
the Governor of New Brunswick who has
placed British troops on the lands claimed
by Maine, and retains thon’i there, notwith
standing the agreement entered into bc
-Itw een the parties. 1 deem it hardly neces
sary to state that Mr. Forsyth has acted in
this matter as becomes the honor and inte
grity of our common country, without re
gard to sectional prejudices, ami his course
even thus lur has gained him a host of
friends.

Obituary. I
Died, at Walnut Grove, Wayne county, on the
18lh ult. after a brief illness, Miss Sarah A. Hkown,
in the 24th year of her age.
In the death of thia interesting young laejy/ihe
circle of her relatives and friends h ive sustained on
irreparable loss. Many are they who will deplore
and mourn her death—for the young flower just ri
pening to maturity, has been cut off from time, by
the cold hand of unrelenting death. Thus, alas!
perish the young in tho spring time of life, eje the
summer sun throws around them its cheering
influence But we will not eulogise her—her eulogy
is in ltie heueu of those who knew her best, of her
family, acquaintnneesaud friends. Enshrined in the
affections of those who loved her, the tear of sorrow
will long be shed “o’er the green turf” that covers
her remains ; and long aft er these, remains will have
mouldered into dust, she will still be deplored by
those to whom she was so dear.
Death appeared to her not arrayed ns the king of
terrors, but as the kind hand which was to lend her to
bathein the ocean of eternal love; to drink ofthe foun
tain of eternal life, and enjoy those delights which
abound at God’s right hand forever.
1 he grave appeared not to her ns a gloomy den of
destruction, but n, a short and shady avenue, to
immortal mansions, where her weary spirit should
be secured from the ills ottif,. ‘beneath the shade of
that treo whose leaves are sot the healing ofthe na
tions. But we will not murmur av the, act of Provi
dence—His wisdom hits willed it. Altho’she has
closed her eyes on all things earthly, we M assured
that her spotless spirit has winged its flight u, the
presence of it’s God. A LFRED.
