Written under the influr.net of a great depression of spirits, IDA June, 1819 My babes, no more I'll behold ye, Little think ye how he ye once low’d, Your father w ho oft did enfold ye, With all that a parent e're prov'd. Mow with many a pang he is sadden'd, How many a tear he has shed, Porthe eight human blossoms that gladden’d His path, and his table, and bed. Konc knows What a fond parent smothers, Save he who a parent has been, YYUo once more, in hi* daughters their mo ther's, In his boys has his own image seed! And who—can I finish my story ? Has seen tlieranll shrink from hi* grasp; Departed the crown of his glory, No wife, and no children to clasp! Bv nil the dear names I have uttered, By all the most sacred caresses, By the frolicsome nothings I've muttered In a mood that sheds tears while it blvitas; By the kisses so fond I have given, By the plump iitlie arms cleaving twine, By the bright eye, whose language was heaven, By the rose or, the cheek press'd to mine; By its warmth that seem'd pregnant with spirit, By the little feet’s fond interlacing, While others press'd forwnrd to inherit The place of the one thus embracing; By the breast that with pleasure was troubled, Since no words were to speak it availing; Till the bliss of the heart was redoubled As in smiles on the lips 'twas exhaling; By the girl, who, to sleep when consign'd, The promis'd kiss still recollected ; And on sleep on her pillow could find, If her father’s farewell were neglected; YVho nsk’d me, when infancy's terror* Avail'd her, to sit by her bed; And for the past day's little errors On my check tears of penitence shed ; By those innocent tears of re;>ciitnnce, More pure e’en than smiles without sin, Since they mark with vvliat delicate sentence Childhood's conscience pronounces within ; By the dear little forms, one by one, Some in beds closely coupl'd half-sleoping, While the eribbd infant nestled alone— Whose heads at iny-comiug all peeping. Betray'd thnt the pulse of ench heart in my feet's stealing fall knew the speech ; YVhile all would not let me depart Till the kiss was bestow'd upon each ; By the boy, who when walking and musing; And thinking myself quite alone; Would follow the path I was chusing— And thrust his dear hand in my own ; (Joy more welcome because uueipected,) By all this fond store of delights, YVhich, in sullen mood, had I neglected, Every curse which Heaven requites, Were Dover sufiacientfor crushing A churl so malign und hard hearted, But by the warm tcurs that are gushing, As I think of the joys that are parted, i Were ye not as the rays that are twinkling On the waves of some clear buuuted stream, Were ye not as the starslhat are sparkling Night’s firmament, dark without them ? My forebodings then hear!—By each one Ol the dear dreams through which I have tra* veil'd, The clip of enjoyment from none Can I take, till the spells, one by one, Which have wither d ye all, be unraitlid.

A book was published in £nglnnd in the course of the past year, by a Mr. Bowditeh, containing an account of a mission from tlie British establishment at Cape Coast, on the roast of Africa, to the Kingdom of Ashantee, situated about a hundred and fifty miles inland.—This it seems, was the first time that this nation of Africans had ever been visited by civilised men, and the account of their custom.', manners, and government, from the speeimens of the work that we have seen, must he very.amusing and instructive. The. Asbantecs are a powerful warlike people, governed by a dcyiotir sovereign: anti they exhibit some striking evidences of wealth ; mingled with the utmost barbarism. Tin-mission went to Coomassic, which is the capp'd of the kingdom. This place was supposed by the inhabitants to contain 100 000 persons, but the geulletne.n who com posed the mission concluded that in making this estimate, they had reference to seasons when they assembled on some great occasi on, rather than permanent residents, which they imngined were about 15,000. Upon entering it they were met by .'iOOO people, most of them warriors, attended by a great variety of martial music, and dressed in a very extraordinary manner—The officers wore n war enp ornamented with gilded ram’s horns in front, and immense plumes of eagles’ feathers on the sides—their vest was of red cloth, covered with fetishes and sa- phies in gold and silver—they had small brass bells,‘the boms and tails of animal , anti long leopards’ tails hung down their hacks they Ind loose cotton trowsers. (inurh such we presume as our dandies wear) wiMi very le.rge hoots of red leather, coining half up the thigh, and fastened by small chains to their want belt—they were ornamated with hells, horses’ tails, strings of amulets, and shreds ofleatlier, a quiver of poisoned arrows hung from their wrist, and they held a long iron chain between their teeth, and a spear was in their left hand. Such n figure, with their Mack faces, made a truly formidable appearance Those people prartiee the most extensive inhuman, and shocking human sacrifices.— This takes place, more particularly, at the death of great personages. The King, at hi mother’s death, sacrificed three thousand victims. The manner is its shockingly cruel as the custom is diabolical Among this nation, the arts have made considerable progress. They use a loom formed on the same principles with the llrit ish; and “ the fineness, variety, brilliancy, and size of their cloths is astonishing. They paint white cloths not inelegantly as fast as an European can write. They excel iti pot tery and are good goldsmiths.—The King’! scales, blowpan, boxes, weights, and pipe tongs were neatly made of the purest gold.— He appeared to he about S3 years of age-— his manners were majestic but courteous and his dress was magnificent, lie wort fillet of aggry betels about his temples, had a necklace of gold cock-spur shells, and over his right shoulder a red silk cord, suspend ing three sapphires rased in gold—his brace lets were of the richest mixture of heads and gotd ; his cloth was of dark green silk his knee hands of aggry beads , his ancle strings of gold ornaments oftlie most delicate workmanship; and his sandals of a soft white leather embossed across the instep bund with small gold and silver cases of sapphire He was seated on a low chair richly orna mented with gold—the belts of his guards were cased in gold, and covered witii small jaw bones of the same metal. Ills eunuch wore only one massy piece of gold about bis neck. The loyal stool, entirely cased in gold, was displayed under a splendid uin brella—the breasts of the attendants were adorned with large stars, crescents and gos samer wings, of solid gold. The royal rela AUTHENTIC NARRATIVE OF AN INTE RESTING lOl'It. THOM Tilt NATIONAL INISLI.10ENCXR. On a fine morning in tin: early part of August, 1 iiO-i, we started, on font, from H<rnc, attended by two servants, (carrying a change of linen and some colii |»rovision,) oil our long projected tour through Switzerland. After having ascended the lake of Tliune, we proceeded to the valley of (Iritidulwald, where we viewed the stupendous cataract called the Stniibhacll ; t isited tile two gla ciers and the famous field of ice, and tneii crossed Mount Sheidegg, having the whole chain of the Bernese Alps, w ithin a few yards on our right. Having, alter 5 hours’ walk, gained the summit of the mountain, where we took refreshments, we quickly pursued our journey, and reached, about sun-set, Mcy’ringen, the chief town of the valley of Ober Husly. This beautiful fruitful val ley, through w Inch file river Aar Hows in continual windings, is well worth the atten tion of the traveller. The ruins of many ancient castles, and the waterfalls with w liicli its sides-arc decorated,.produce a highly pic turesque scene. Leaving line abode of a happy, because contented people, vve made no stay until vve got to Luzerne. Front this we made excursions upon Mount Pilate and lliggilicrg. The prospect from the latter is, perhaps, as, extensive and grand as the hu man imagination can form an idea of; hut the climbing up on the summit of Mount l’ilate, does not reward you for the danger nf bracking your neck. Not to leave any thing worth seeing In hind us, we sailed all around the lake of Luzerne, t lie borders of which inspire you more with awe than with delight. Its shores witnessed the downfall of tyranny and the dawning ol liberty.— With indescribable emotion did we visit the tirnttly. where Tell and his associates swore to deliver their country from the Austrian yoke ; the narrow pass of Kussnacht, where Gesslcr fell, and the chapel on the rock, from which Tell pushed hack the boat, and there by secured Swiss liberty. From K'tssnUcht we proceeded to Stantz, where we engaged guides. The country separating tin-canton of Untlei'vvalden from that of Uri is almost impassable, on account of its alps and extensive forests, and, without guides, travellers risk falling into chasms, or losing their-v.ay. After one and a half days of laborious wal king, we arrived in full view of the Devil’s mountain, from w liicli we raw descend a lawitie, or avalanche,* which burst at about half a mile from the spot where we stood SI’RIXYOR-(,T.KT.V.JL'.S' 0FFICP., Millcdgcullt, Vth May, 1820. To the Purveyors of Districts In Rabun county: ( rt I'.NTLEMEN; The Purveyor who was ap- T pointed to lay out your Districts, having informed me Hint they are now ready for your reception, yon ure required forthwith to occu py them, and to transmit to me the earliest in telligence in your power, tin number of surveys contained in your diMrlcH, both lull ami frac tional, which are subject in the lottery scheme 1 hi* information can be expeditiously acquired by first completing your surveys on Ilia natural boundaries of vour district*. ‘DANIEL STURGES, Sr. Gen l Mnv P —2t its -course was preceded by a very slrong wind, ac coltl as ice, which however ceased the moment it had burst. 'This mountain, from its stupendous height, -inspiring you with dread and horror, well deserves the name, it hears. Yet notwithstanding this, at hardly half.ii league from it, there is sen- led, ia a delightful vale, sheltered from the law inns by thick rows of pines, a monastery uf Ursulines, where we were perfectly well received, fc accommodated with good licds. Next morning, very early, we set out.’ Our guides had, at the Convent, provided themselves with cords, Sc something resem- bling the seats of old fashioned chairs, through which four holes were bored. After ascend ing for nearly three hours, during which time the atmosphere had gradually become very cold, vve reached the foot of YVengeren Alp, having the shape of a steep roof, and covered with snow- and ice. After incredible labor and trouble, we arrived at its summit, where the cold was piercing, and from which wc beheld a verdant vale, us if lying beneath our feet, but the access to which seemed al most impossible. Our guides now began to fasten to our seats the boards they bad car ried with them, and provided with longstafl's, to which were fastened strong iron spikes, they put themselves, each one, on our right waiter supported a roasted pig—and the va rious cookery was of an excellent character. Mr. Bowuitch supposes the number of men in tire kingdom capable of bearing arms, to be rising of £00,OHO—the disposable force, to be 100,000—the whole population to be a million. They have a daily market supplied with beef, mutton, wild hog, deer, monkey’s flesh, fowls, yams, plantains, corn, sugar cane, rice, peppers, vegetables, butter, oran ges, jiapaus, pine, apples bananas, salt and dried fish, large snales smoke dried, palm wine, rum, pipes, heads, looking-glasses,- sandals, silk, cotton cloth, powder, white and blue thread, and calabashes.” The cattle are as large as English cattle—the soil produ ces two crop in a year—all the fruits men tioned as being in the market grow spontane ously and in great abundance—the oranges' are very largo and of exquisite flavor—a berry which gives to acids the flavour of sweets, making limes taste like honey—is common—the castor oil plant rises to a Virgo tree, and the cotton tree sometimes to 150 feet. The government is despotic, frequently severe and oppressive, and, in enforcing the customs which have been mentioned, cruel and sanguinary. They have a sort of It g's-. lative body, consisting of the king, four ana- tocratical assessors, and an assembly of cap tains—making their three estates. With respect to religion, they believe that white people are under the care of a higher sort of god, and that the black are left to the care of inferior deities—though they ex pect that black kings and black nobility will go to the upper gods after death and enjoy forever the luxury which was their portion on earth. Hence cooks, butlers kc. are sac- rifled on their tombs. They have two sorts of priests, one to hold intercourse with their idols, tlie other to conjure, tell fortunes, kc. Gold and silver are in great abundance among them, and are wrought with consid erable skill, into vessels and utensils. Such is a slight account of this nation of negroes, a race that have apparently, by the force of their powers, made considerable ad vances towards civilization and a regular or ganized state of society ; and who, it would seem, if the proper ,puins were taken, and the necessary incans m opportunity were af forded, might become a well informed, well regulated, humane and christianised people. But, it appears, that the great obstacle to the introduction of the real blessings of civilized life among them, is that terrible curse, cor rupter, and deselater of nations—the slave trude. So long as Spain continues the Iruttic, nothing can he hoped towards this object from tlie efforts of those nations that prohi bit it. Whilst this mission was there, one thousand slaves left the Ashantee country for two Spanish schooners that were upon the cost. If this traffic were once effectually broken up—and that will tic* er be until the. prosecution of it shall he declared to he, and punished as, piracy—there is little hope that these heathen barbarians, will become just and humane. But, it is perfectly apparent, from tlie example of tills people, that there, is no material defect of bodily or mental pow ers and capacities, in the inhabitants of Afri ca.—.Vwr- York Daily Advertiser.

None of us received the least injury, but one, whose hoard having given way, he arrived at the bottom in rather a .pitiable, though ludicrous plight After having a little recovered from this strange mode of travelling, we proceeded to s6me hamlets tit the farther extremity of the valley. Their inhabitants at first receiv ed us with shyness, hut hearing us address them in their native palais, thev immediately assumed a cheerful and friendly -behaviour, and bid us welcome to their huts; where they received us with the mostcordial hospitality They informed us, that for 0 or 7 years pro viously, they had not sect) a strange human face ; that they lived secluded, but happy a- mong themselves, and that their small valley furnished them with all the necessaries of life. True enough, these were simple, nnd their wants moderate ; milk, butter, cheese, and potatoes, were their daily food—their Clothing was furnished by a herd of sheep. On leaving these good and honest people next morning, we could hardly press on them a small remuneration, and we wished for their happiness and pence’ sake, that tlu-ir huts might not oftener he frequented by tra vellers.

A common method of inoculating is by making a transverse section in the bark to the stock and a perpendicular slit below ; if the bud is then pushed down to give it the position which it is to have. This method is not always successful ; it is better to re verse it, by making the vertical slit above the tranverse section, and pushing the bud upwards into its position—a method which rarely fails of success ; because as the sa; descends by the hark, as has been ascertained and does not ascend, the bud thus placed above the transverse section, receives abun dance, but when placed below, the sap can not reach it.
