aCTressur lvrjrsE’jK. From the .Xttc York Trikune. IT WAS THY HAND, O TIME I t felt tiiat there was a rhilling breath Poured ice-like o’er my changinghrow ; And the light fires that burned beneath Unroused and cold were slumbering now. My eye had lost its joyous light, M y lips their wonted wreath of smiles ; The spring-time brought no garlands bright, Nor one sweet song the forest w ilds. The flowers, 'tis true, to bloom would start, The sunlight pour its tints of gold. But could not wake my wearied heart To rapture as in days of old. And then I thought the flowers must be Less lovely in this stranger laud ; And the voung breeze less fresh and fren Than that which erst my temples funn'd. I deemed that to my veins once more Their bounding pulse of life would cotne, Could I but taste the mountain air That wandered in my early home. With faintingstep, o'er mount and wave, I passed, to seek my native glen ; My lip to cool, my hrow to lave, Amid its bursting springs again. And it was there—the dancing stream, That o’er the cliffs so madly dashed, Still with its wild and joyous gleam, Unaltered, in the sunlight flushed. The wild winds, that I loved to hear, Stilt through the rocking pine trees breath'd, And flowers, to life's first memories dear, In each wild nook their garlands wreath'd. The mountain mist that upward curl'd, And upward bore my spirit too, Till all the light of nil the world Seem'd compassed in one glorious view— Curl'd upward still, and still could fling Its hues nil gorgeous to tho wind ; Yet sadly, with untempted wing, My weary spirit lagged buliiiid. My early friends—l fount! them not— The young, the beautiful, the fair; But still, in each familiar spot, Strange faces met mo every where. And scattered were the forms I loved, The hearts that used my mirth to share ; So to their distant homes I roved, To elude my spirit's sadness thoro. I found them, and their bosoms yet Were clustering warm round memory’s shrine, But ah ! on every brow I met The signet that l felt on mine. Again I sought whore brighter skies On fairer lunds their glories shed, And graceful groups and glorious dyes Were o'er the glowing landscape spread. Tho bird's rich song, the bursting flowers, The fountain's softly murmuring flow, Their drooping fruits, tho vine-clad bowers, Were like an Eden here below. I bade the brocze, with odors rife, Amid my loosened locks to roll, And wake once more to buoyant life The gelid current of my soul. I felt the South-wind's balmy play, I wooed the Summer's joyous smile, Ami bathed me in the dancing spray Os many a bright and glorious isle. Yet still upon my lip and brow Their rigid seal unloosened lay ; And calmer grew my spirit’s flow, And cob er waxed my pulse's play. Young, lovely faces round me shone, Free, happy voices rent the air,— My bosom waked no answering lone, My heart could And no echo there. And then I knew no foreign clime Had thus the pulse of life congealed ; It was the icy hand of Time, Whose signet on my brow was sealed. Cily OlUcers. Mayor, GEORGE M. LOGAN. Aldermen, B. F.

Bibb Superior Court, ) JANUARY TERM, 1649. $ VI7 E the Grand Jury, Panel No. I, chosen ' ' and sworn, for the County of Bibb, at the January Term of the Court, for 1649, beg leave to make the following Presentments : We have examined the Hooks of the Clerks of the Superior and Inferior Courts, and find tiiat they, as usual, are kept correeily and neat IV. We have, also, examined the Jail", and find it in good order, a> and was particularly gratified at the fact, that there was not a prisoner within its walls. From a return made to this Body, by the Tax Collector for 1648, we find that errors against individuals exist in the Tax for that year, emana ting from the Tax Receiver's returns, mnoun ing to f1,179 26, and that Taxes against otherindi viduals amounting to $1:14 00-7,had not been as sessed, leaving after tile foregoing corrections were made, the sum of SB,6!H 11-8, as the State Tax of said County ; and We further recommend that the Digest in the Clerk s Office in this Comi ty, and the Digest in the Comp roller's Office, be altered so as to conform to the Collector s Book as corrected. The Tax Collector asks to be allowed him on bis Insolvent List, the sum of $525 72; this a mount,We believe to be too bsrge, for the reason, that we believe that at least, a portion of it, may yet be collected. We therefore recommend that he be allowed the sum of $362 66-3 only. From a Report made to this Body by the Com missioners of the Poor School Fund, We find u balance on baud of .sl6l 33 only, and that the a mount annually received from the State, only averages about $3(10,a sum wholly inadequate for the purpose of educating the 4 12 children, as returned to us, as entitled to its benefits ; we therefore recommend to the Judges of the Inte rior t.'ourf, to levy a tax suffirico to create a fund of S3OO in aid ol the funds to In-received froitithe t-tatc, for tlie purpose of educating the poor chil dren of the Cuuritv. We regret to learn that pauperism is fearfully on the increase in this county, and for remedy thereof, we recommend to our Representatives in our next Legislature, to get a law passed,author izing tlte Interior Court of this County, to pur chase a suitable farm in the neighborhood of this city, to which all pauper applicants may be sent, and where those able to labor, mav be made un der the directions of an overseer, or superinten- A® tit, to earn, at least, a portion of their support. We recommend to the Inferior Court, to levy such tax as they may think advisable for the cur rent expenses oftlie county, and for the payment of the present niitstandiiigdehts. We also recommend to our Senators and Rep resentntives in the next Legislature, to use their best endeavors to have the present Tax Law »• altered, as to levy an ad valorem tax The pre sent Tax Law, we consider extremely unequal and unjust, upon that portion ol’oiir citizens w bo live within incorporated towns and cities, and upon our merchants. We also recommend that the present Usury Law be so altered, that all contracts entered into by any individual, when the rate of interest shall bn expressed on its face, shall he collectable by law, with said rate of interest. Itt taking leave of his Honor, the Judge, we would tender him our thanks for his aide anil dignified performance of duty, during the pre sent term of service. Wo would also give otir thanks to the Solicitor General, for his polite attention to this Body, and for his laithlul and efficient discharge ofdtity A. E ERNK.'T, Foreman.

Graml Jury, selected, chosen and sworn, • Panel No. 2, at this Term, in dosing ill ir duties, make the following general Presentments: On an examination of the Insolven' List, pre sented lo us by the Tax Collector of this countv, we recommend that he he allowed the stmt of (slls 57) one hundred and forty-five dollars and fifty-seven cents, on the State and County I’ax, in addition to the sum previously allowed hy Grand Jury, Pannel No 1, at this Term. Having given due and respected consideration to the recommendation of our predecessors in re ference to the establishment of a farm for the support of paupers we dissent from such recom mendation, foi this reason, that we believe, that such an institu ion cannot lie so organized and managed as to benefit the poor, withoi entailing upon our county a very heavy and Imiiheiii sottre debt, whit It recent experience shows, should if possible, be avoided ; moreover, we be lieve that under our present system, if the In. ferior Court should asses the requisite ax fort lia support of the poor, that such fund if faithfully applied, will give to the poor such necessary support as the benevolent object of the law is intivided to bestow. We recommend to our Inferior Court, to have correct lists prepared of all defaulting tax payers in the county, and have the same placed before lliesuperintendants of Elections at. sell Precinct, with instructions,that no person lie permitted to vote without having paid their taxes, as required by law. Wo fully concur with our predecessors of Pannel No. 1, in recommending to our Inferior Court to levy an adequate tax for the Education of the Poor. Believing a* we do, thntthe present tax law is unequal and oppressive in its operation, we would most respectful y request our Senator and Representatives in the next Legislature, to use their best endeavors to have an advalorem tax bill passed. In taking leave of His Honor, Judge Fi.ovn, we tender him our thanks for his polite attention to this Body,and for the able and energetic man ner with which he has discharged his duty, the present term. The Solicitor General, Mr. McCone, will please accept our thanks, for the ability with which he has discharged his duty, and his uni form, polite and courteous attention to this Body. M.
