LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP.
Who ever vowM unchanging love
That <ld not vow deceit?
This painful trutii liow many prove,
\et call those moments sweet?
Who parts, that does not breathe despair?
Hut look through future years—
You’ll find the smiles of one more lair
Have dried the lover’s tears:
For, ()! how many live to prove
That absence .s the death of l.ove.
But Friendship is a holier name,
’ I is not a fickle breath
That ever changes;—soil the same,
t nalter'd e’en in death.
It is a tie hinds soul to soul
Across the foaming main;
Years ere they meet tlmr course may roll
Hut cannot break the chain.
For friends must part, and Friendship sigli,
Bul yet—it know s not how to die.
WheiT prosp’rous days arc gone and past, ,•
more constant stay? /
No, adverse TKq like winter’s hiast,
Sweeps Joy away; > ‘
It seeks a bright, a gaze^
’Twas all it souglit^feiiuruF’
*Twas faithful still in happy VtiaC iW,
And w ho can look for more?
For, o! how many live to prove \ Y v
Adversity the death of Love. ‘N
When bliss is fled, and woe and night
Succeed to joy and day,
The spark ot Friendship burns more bright
To cheer us on our wav.
Who does not feel ’t:s sweet to know,
When dark Misfortune low’rs,
We have a friend whose tears will flow
In sympathy with our’s?
Friendship clings close when fortunes fly.
To prove it know not how to die.
And some have lov’d—as guilty these.
Through many a changing scene;
Until the fuor that once could please,
Is not what it hath been.
Adversity such love as tins
, May not have powers to chase;
It fl.es not with the days of bl.ss,
But with each youthful grace.
For, O’ how many live to prove
That Time has been the deat h of Love.
w ii< trusts to Friendship, brightly pure,
Will not tie thus deceived;
’Tis f mnded on a base more sure,
And ought to be believ’d.
The friendship that is known and tried
Doth wear a fairer,hue;
*T's ; pi? in youth and beauty’s pride.
When age appears ’ns true.
’ R mtv w ill fa te, and lovers fly,
But friendship knows not how to die.

We c\()i rssed some (lonbt relative to the truth of the
report that an American officer has embraced the Turk

is rue, and the name of die officer is English. This
gentleman was born in the eastern states, and educated
at one of the first seminaries: exhibiting’ talents and in
dustry, be was induced by bis parents to study law.—

profession, be turned Ins attention to divinity,

trines, he changed his belief to that of the Unitarians,
direct.h the reverse, and wrote a book containing se
vere attacks on the Christian religion, which created
some sensations, and produced replies. His object ap
pears to have been to establish himself as the leader of

became a strong democrat, and finished los
,as an active federalist, lie then turned his at

men* s,ic b as the ancient chariots, with wheels of

ar oies, >ut it opened anew field for eccentricity on the
sacred subjects of religion. But tliis, unquestionably,

science is happily free, he pursued a devious path, with

From the growing importance f our state, and the

tended to undertakings combining pubLc utility with
individual enterprise and exertion. In submitting to a.i
enlightened and intelligent community proposals f r a
new paper, no attempt will be made to anticipate pub
lic favor by any extraordinary engagements ersph ndid
professions. The subscriber is aware that the paper nc
pubhsues must and will be judged of according to s
own merit, and that ns support will correspond won lm
estimation entertained of the ability, candor and cor

inform tiie judgment, of the reader—and such al
articles as may be necessary to a free examination of
public measures, and which, exempt from party asperi
ty, appear only to have the public good in view. Li
short, its contents willbe such as shall be deemed best
calculated to render tiie Advfiutiskr a paper of useful
information and of rational entertainment—and the pub

PROPOSALS,
For publishing by subscription,
A NEW AND GREATLY IMPROVED
GEORGIA JUSTICE.
IT is designed to make this work not only a guide for

tors and Guardians, as w ell as those of Justices, will be
explained—to which will be added many useful forms,
with directionsfor taking interrogatories, for conveying
real and personal property , and such other information
as may enable e very citizen, of ordinary capacity , to
transact most of lna law-business without the assistance;
of an attorney.
A gentleman of respectable legal attainments is now
engaged in the compilation, in Which he will he aioe by
a professional character of deservedly high standing.—
To have the work as perfect as possible, it will be sub
mitted for revision and correction, before it is printed, to
the Judges of the several Superior courts, and others
learned in the laws of the state.
Such a production has been long wanted—and as the
publishers will spare no pains nor expense to make it
useful, they rely w.tli confidence on being liberally en
couraged in this expensive and laborious undertaking.
It will be printed on good paper, with anew type —will
be well bound, and form a large octavo volume. I'lie
price to subscribers will not exceed five dollars each.
Any person obtaining twenty signatures, and becoming
responsible therefor, shall be entitled to a copy grans.
Subscription papers are ready, and will be furnished,
