MACON, C A., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1850. I JjlitteUang. ‘riio Trutli i>otli Never I>ie. Tliough KiiigiloiiM. Status and Empires fall And dynasties decay; Though cities onnnhle in the dust. And nations die away; Though gorgeous towers and palaces In heaps of min lie. Which once were proudest of the protnl, The truth doth never die! We'll mourn not o'er the silent past; Its glories are not tied. Although its men of high renown Be numbered with tlie dead. We'll grieve not o'er w hat earth has lost. It cannot claim a sigh : For the wrong alone hath perished, The truth noth never die! All of the past is living still— All that is good and true : The rest hath perished, and it did Deserve to perish, too! The world rolls ever round and round. And time rolls ever by; And the wrong is ever rooted up, But the truth doth never Die I Jefferson’s Weddu g- aud his Wedding Kighi. The following pleasing picture is from the Early Days of Jefferson,in tlie New York Century : “ Belinda” (Jetl'erson’s first love) had been married many years, and her old admirer was approaching 80, when he met with a young lady of 22, who produced a strong impres sion upon him. She was a little above the medium bight, slender but elegantly formed. A fair complex ion, with a delicate tint of the rose; large hazel eyes, full of lifeiind feel ing; and luxuriant hair of a rich soft auburn, formed a combination of attractions which were eminently calculated to move the heart of a ’ youthful bachelor. In addition to all this,the lady was admirably grace ful; she rode, danced and moved with elegant ease, and sang and played on the harpsichord very sweetly. Add still to these accomplishments the possession of excellent good sense, very considerable cultivation, a warm, loving heart, and last, though not least, notable talents for house keeping. and it will not be difficult to understand how the youthful Mr. Jefferson cmie to visit very fre quently at the lady's residence, in the county of Charles t’ity. It was ; called ‘‘The Forrest,” ami the name of the lady was Mrs. Martha Skel ton. She was a daughter of John Wayles, au eminent lawyer, and had married in her seventeenth year, Mr. Bathurst Skelton,who dying left his young wife a widow at nine teen. As the three year* of mourning began t > expire, the beautiful young lady found herself besieged at “The Forest” by numerous visitors. Os these three were favorites with fair Mrs. Skelton, of whom Mr. Thomas Jefferson was one. The tradition j runs that the pretentions of the ri vals were decided, either by the mu sical accomplishments of the young) counsellor, or by the fears of his op ponents. The tale is differently re lated. One version is, that the two unfortunate gentlemen encountered | each other on Mrs. Skelton’s door-’ step, but hearing Mr. Jefferson’s vio lin and voice siecoinpanying the la<ly in a pathetic song, gave up the con test thenceforth and retired without entering, convinced that the affair was beyond their cont'ol. The story is, that all three met at the door, and agreed that they would take their turns. Mr. Jefferson en tered first, and the tones of the lady in singing with her companion tie-, prived the listeners of all hope. — However this may be, it is certain that the beautiful widow consented to become M rs. Jefferson; and on the first day of January, 177-, there was a great festival at “The Forrest” Friends and kindred assembled fr*>m far and near—there was frolicking and dancing, after the abundant old fashion —and we find from the bride- j groom’s note-book that the servants and fullers received fees from his es pecial pocket. It snowed without, but within all was mirth and enjoyment, in the light arul warmth of the great log fires, roaring in honor of the occa sion. Soon after the performance of the ceremony, tlie bridegroom and his bride set out in their carriage for “Monticello,” where Mr. Jeffer son had commenced building in 1769, just before the destruction by fire of liis patrimonial house of “Shadwell.” The journey was not to end without adventures. As they advanced to ward the mountains, the snow in creased in depth, and finally they were compelled to leave the carriage and proceed upon their way on horse back. Stopping to rest at heiin,” the scat of Col. Carter, where they found, however, no one but an overseer, they left it at sunset, reso lutely bent upon reaching Monticello bes-re night. It was eight miles distant, and tlie road, which was rather a mountain bridle path than an honest highway, was encumbered with snow three feet deep. We may fancy tlie sensations of the newly wedded bride at the chill appearance of the desolate landscape, as she passed along through the snow; but she was a young woman of courage and good sense, and did not care for inconvenience. It was late when they arrived,and a cheer less reception awaited them—or rather, there was no reception at all. | Tlie fires were all out, the servants had gone to bed, and the place was as dark and as silent as the grave.— Conducting his wife to the little pa-, vilion, which was the only’ part of the house habitable at the time Mr. Jefferson proceeded to do the honors. On a shelf behind some books, parti of a bottle of wine was discovered; j and this formed the supper of the ; bridegroom and the bride. 1 Far from being annoyed or dis comfited by their reception,however, it only served for a topic of jest and laughter. The young lady’ was as merry and light-hearted as a bird, and sent her clear voice ringing through the dreary little pavilion as gaily as she had ever done in the cheerful drawingroom of “The For rest.” Thus the long hours of the winter night fled away like minutes, winged with laughter, merriment and song. The vigil was a mirthful incident rather than a trial of their equanimity. They were young—and they had just been married. When hands are clasped, and hearts beat close together, there is very little gloom in darkness,and winter nights are not cold. This little moral sen timent will not, I hope, he criticised as too romantic for the “dignity’ of history.” It doubtless explains how a young lady and gentleman, both used to every comfort and luxury', found in the gloomy little pavilion in the midst of three feet of snow, neither dark nor etild, on that Janu ary night long ago ! From the National Intelligencer. THE LAST BULLET. An Incidtut of Commodore Stewart s Algerine Experience. The United States ship-ofwar Constellation was anchored in the harbor of Algiers, whither she had proceeded under command of Com modore Preble, having on hoard, among other officers, Charles Stewart, then an Acting Lieuten ant. It was the watch of young Stew art, and lie was pacing to and fro on | the deck, about half an hour after sun set, when he saw a small boat, 1 containing a single person, coming off’ from the Old Part, as the west era part of the town is called, and leading directly for the ship. This person was rowing with all his might, and Stewart was not long in discovering the cause. Close be hind the single boatman was seen a large rover filled with men, whose presence was announced by a con tinued firing at him of whom they’ ‘ were in such determined pursuit, 1 holding on their way until they were under the very guns of the ship. “Now, by’ my soul !” cried Stew art, may’ I be shot if I don’t teach those fellows a lesson. Stand hy r , Mr. Rogers,” he added, addressing a favorite gunner “to throw a little grape into that fellow.” An instant later a wreath of smoke curled up from the side of the ship, and as the report went booming over the water the iron messenger sped on its way, crashing into the pursu- j ing boat, severely wounding two or i three of her crew. She instantly’ ! turned to put back, at the same time | that the fugitive reached hisdestins- | tion and came up tlie side into the i presence of tlie officer of the deck, lie was ait elderly man, with a stout frame and brownish features; but it required but a single glance from the lieutenant to see that lie was Eng lish or American. As soon as lie was sufficiently recovered from his over-exertion to breathe he went on to tell his stoiy, to which Stewart j listened with much excitement. The new comer was tui American citizen, named James (’ollins, a nu- j ttve of New York, who, with his wife and daughter, had been taken from an American vessel at the same i time as its commander and crew, two j years before, by’ an Algerine pirate. ! His wife had since died, and no and his daughter had been enduring since Ids capture all the horrors of a hope less and aggravated captivity; but the worst part of the poor mail’s story, and that which moved Lieu tenant Stewart the most, was the announcement that his daughter, a gentle and beautiful girl, was on the eve of being forced into a detestable union with the very wretch who lmd bought her and her father as slaves. “My agony at these circumstances culminated not two hours ago,” fin ished the father, “when I struck the , persecutor insensible to my feet and , fffd. By dint of exertion I mail- j aged to reach the water side, and : embarked before the pursuers could ■ prevent it. But though, I have suc ceeded in reaching this place of safe ty, my poor Alice is still in the power ! of her tormentor, exposed to his veil- | gence; and I am almost crazy at thinking that she may even now be subjected to a fate worse than death. If I could only guide a boat s crew, under y'our” “One moment,” interrupted Stew art. “Stay where you are until I have seen Commodore Preble.” One moment the young lieutenant was engaged with his commander in the cabin, and then he came forth with a stern smile of satisfaction on his features. Ten minutes more had not passed before a cutter with twelve chosen men pushed off in the darkness, with the lieutenant and the stranger in the stem, and rapid ly struck out for the shore. “Our owner,” said .Mr. Collins, “resides in the western part of the city. There is a coast guard esta blished, but I do not apprehend that we shall have any especial trouble from that source. I think we can land below, go up the streets to the house, and carry off my child, and all without losing a man. The boat landed, after twenty minutes of rapid progress, at a small wharf near the Geleta, in the west ern part of the town. The arrival was certainly observed, but not a great deal of attention was bestow. ; ed upon it by’ the stupid Algerines, i Leaving part of his men in the cut- ; ter, with orders for them to lie down under the wharf, Lieut. Stewart and the remainder of his force followed the footsteps of Mr. Collins, who led the way rapidly’ up the intervening streets. On arriving at his late prison, an old, dingy-look ing struct tire, ex tret tie Jy spacious, having all the looseness of the Moorish style, the party dis covered that silence and darki.ess ; were the principal features of the j scene. Not a sound was heard nor a word uttered. The whole building I seemed deserted. The agony of the father was extreme. “O, my cinitil my einll!” he cried, ’ no Inger able to control the terrible ! emotions which had been surging through his soul during the last ’ hour, “shall I never see thee more?” A Moorish slave came around from the rear of the building, and assured his fellow captive that the girl had been carried off’ by the master, and that no one was at home save him | self But even as the lying rascal uttered the concluding words, a wild shriek was heard in the chamber,and the next moment a young and beau tiful of seventeen summers ap peared at one of the front windows, looking like a spectre in her gar ments of spotle-s white. “My child, my’Alice!” exclaimed Mr. Collins. “Save me, holier!” was the re sponse; and while shouts and groans were heard proceeding from the in terior of the building the maiden threw herself from the low window, falling into the very* arms of her father and Lieut. Stewart. The very moment of this reunion was destined to be that in which a 1 company of Algerine troops ( time round the nearest corner, marching up the street in the direction of Lieut Stewart and his men. It was also at the same moment that the old Moor, who had so long consider. | ed himself the proprietor of M r. Col lins and his daughter, came to the window and set up a startling yell. “This way! ’ cried M r. Collins, and he dashed open the door of the front building, and conducted the entire party* within, “li ok to your weap ons, and take the rascals off’ their pins the instant they halt!” siid Stewart. A sharp and determined struggle soon commenced, in the course of which half the Moorish soldiers were killed, and the remainder finally gave way. But the rescuers had expend ed all their ammunition, and only a single bullet was remaining; that was in a large horse pistol in the possession ot Lieutenant Stewart.— 1 lie was just wondering what he should do with it, when the old Moor came down stairs with a huge sabre 1 in his grasp, and made a furious dash j at Mr. Collins and his daughter, with murder written on his features and flashing from his eyes. This sudden arrival decided the destination of the last bullet. “Take it, you black devil I” cried Stewart, just as the blow was de sccnding, and he fired his weapon, tin* ball passing through the miscre ant’s head and bringing him dead to the floor. “Now, boys,” added Lieut. S., “we are going to finish with it hand to i hand fight. The powder ahd ball are out ; we must trust t< the ! sword.” Closely followed by his men as well as by Mr. Collins and Alice, the Lieutenant led the way towards the boat. It seemed sis if Algiers had turned out*to witness the triumphal retreat, the streets being filled with thousands of men and women collec ted together by the brief contest at the Moor’s house, but not an attempt was made to intercept the progress of the party, the Algerines content., ing themselves with scowls and de nunciations. Ten minutes later the rescuers were at the cutter, twenty* I minutes more and the entire party were safely back to the Constella tion, not having lost a man. The young lieu tenant received the hearty thanks of his superior, to say noth ing of the gratitude of Mr. Collins and his daughter, whose family > proved to be of consequence in New York; and we are assured that Charley Stewart was never happier in his life than when Miss Alice was i united to one of his ’chums,’ a noble- j hearted lieutenant, now a commo dore, who fell in love with the res cued maiden during the Constella tion’s homeward passage. J-gs” Ex-Goveruor Seymour, of New Yoik, recently made a speech in St. Paul, | Minnesota. Speaking of slavery, be truth fully said: “It is sustained by the firm of ‘Weaver, Wearer k Planter,’ and two of the partners live up North.

And now, j dear, I want you to have the cloak Iby next Christmas. I am anxious to see how you will look in it.” “But, Edward,” gazing steadily j into the shining pieces in her rosy palm, “you know we are not rich people and it really seems a piece of extravagance for me to give thirty i j dollars fora velvet cloak.” “No, it is not, either. You de serve the cloak, Mary, and I’ve set i my mind upon having it. Then it 11 last you so many years that it will he more economical in the and than a less expensive art icle.” It was evident the lady was pre disposed to conviction. She made no further attempt to refute her husband’s arguments, and her small fingers closed over the gold pieces, as she rose up, saying : “Well, dear, the supper has been waiting half an hour, and I know you must be hungry’.” Edward and Mary Clark were the husband and the wife of a year ! He was a book-keeper in a large es tablishment, with a salary of fifteen hundred dollars, llis fair young wife made a little paradise of his cot tage home in the suburbs of the city, within its walls dwelt, also, the peace which God giveth those who love him. Mrs. Clark came into the room suddenly’, and the girl lifted her head, and then turned it away quick ly, but not till the first glance told i the lady that the fair face was swol len and stained with tears. Jennet Hill was a young seam stress whom Mrs. Clark had occa sionally’ employed for the last six ! months. She was alway s attracted by her young bright face, her moil— -1 est yet dignified manner, and the j lady* saw at once that some great sorrow had smitten the girl. Obeying the promptings of a warm, impressive heart, she went to her and laid her hand on her arm, saying softly : “Won’t you tell me what is troub ling you Jennet 7” •‘Nothing that any*body can help,” 1 ! answered the girl, trying still to i avert her lace, while the tears swell !ed in her eyes 1 rom the effort she ( made made to speak. “But perhaps I can. At any rate you know it does us good sometimes to confide our surrows to a friend, and I need not assure you that I . sincerely’ grieve because of your dis tress.” And so, with kind words and half caressing movements of the little hand, laid on the seams*ress’ arm, Mrs. Clark drew from her lips her said story. She was an orphan, maintaining herself by’ her daily labors, and she j had one brother, just sixteen, three vears her junior, lie had been for sometime a kind of under clerk in a large wholesale establishment, where there was every propect of promotion, but be had seriously in- I j u red himself in tlie summer by* lift ing some heavy bales of goods, and at last a dangerous f.ver set in, j which bad finally left him in so i‘x hausted a state that the doctor had no hope of his recovery’. “And to think that I shall never see him again, Mrs. Clark, cried the poor girl, with a fre-h burst of tears. To think that lie must die, away* then among strangers in the hospital, with no loving face there to bend over him in hi* last horn’s, or brush away the damp curls from the fore- ; head which Mamma used to be so proud of Oh, George—my darling, my bright faeed little brother, George,’and here the poor girl broke down in a storm ofsows ami tears. ‘ Poor child, poor, child!” murmur ed Mrs. Clark her sweet eyes swim ming with tears. “How much would it take to see you to your brother, > and return,” she asked at last. “About thirty dollars. I have not so much inoney in the world. ou see it is nearly’ four hundred miles off ; but I could manage to support myself after I get there.” A thought passed quickly through Mrs. Clark’s mind. She stood still a few moments, her blue eves fixed in deep meditation. At she sai<l kindly': “Well, my child, try to bear Up bravely’, and we will see what can be done for you,” and the warm, cheer ful tones comforted the sad heart of the seamstress. The lady went up stairs and took the pieces out of her ivory port mon ] naie. There was a brief struggle in her mind. “Somehow I've set my i heart on this velvet cloak,” she thought, and Edward will be disap | pointed. I was going ont to select the velvet this very afternoon. But then, there’s that dying boy, lying j as the slow hours go by, for the sight ofthe sister who loves him, and would not this thought haunt me every time I put on my new cloak ! After all, roy old broadcloth is not so had, ‘■ if it is only turned. And lam sure 1 can bring Edward over to my way of thinking. No, you mint go with out the cloak this time, aud ha\ e the pleasure of knowing you ve siuooth qp the path going down the valley of -NUMBER ‘2B the shadow of death, Mary Claris.*’— And she closed the port inonnaie res olutely, and went down stairs. “Jennet, put up your work this moment—there is no time to he lost. Here is the money. Take it and go to your brother. The girl lifted her eyes a moment, almost mbewilderment, to the lady, and then as she comprehended the 1 truth, a cry of such joy broke from I her lips, that its memory never faded from the heart through all the after rears of M rs. ('lark's life. “George ! George !” The words leaped from her lips, as the sister sprang forward to the low bed where the youth lay, his white sharpened face gleaming death-like from amidst his thick, yellow curls. I lie opened his large eyes suddenly—a flush passed over his pallid face. lie stretched out his thin arms, exclaiming. ,'•*(> Jennet! Jennet! 1 have prayed God for the sight of you once more before I died.” “His pulse is stronger than it has been for two weeks, and his face has a better hue,” said the doctor, a few hours later, as he made his morning vis-, it through the wards of the hospital. “His sister came yesterday and watch ed with him,” answered an attendant, glancing at the young girl who hung breathless over the sleeping invalid. “Ah, that explains it. I’m not cer- tain but that young man has recupera tive power enough left to recover, if he could have the care and tenderness, for the next two months, which love alone can furnish.'’ “How Jennet’s heart leaped at the very words. That very morning she had an interview with the brother’s em | ployers. They had been caielcss, but not intentionally unkind, and the story enlisted their sympathies. In a day or two, George was remov ed to a quiet, comfortable home, and his sister installed herself by his couch, his r.urse and comforter. Three years have passed. The shad ows of the night were dropping already around. Mrs. Clark sat in her chamber i humming a nursery tune, to which the cradle kept a sort of rhythmic move ment. Sometimes she would pause sud denly and adjust the snowy blankets around the cheeks of the little slumbercr, shining [out from the bright curls as red apples shine amid fading leaves in Oc tober orchards. Suddenly the door opened. ‘ Shsh,” said the young moth er as she. lifted her linger with a smil ing warning ns her husband entered. “There’s something for you, Mary. It came by express this afternoon he said the words iu an in ler tone, placing a small package in her Jap. The lady removed the covers with eyes filled with wonder, while her hus band leaned over her shoulder and watched her movements. A white box disclosed itself, and re moving the cover. Mrs. (lark described a small, elegantly-chased hunting watch. She lifted it with a cry of delightful sur prise, and touching the spring the case Slew back, and on the inside was en graved these words : “To Mrs. Mary Clake. Ia token of the life she sored.” “Oh.

What an excellent gift, and how I shall value it. Not simply for itself, either.” “Well, Mary, you were in the right then, though I’m 9orry to say I was half vexed with you for giving up yotir vel vet cloak, and you have not had one yet.” “Vo, I have not had one, but I never regretted it.” She said these words with her eyes lastened upon him. “Nor J, Mary, for I cannot doubt that your sacrifice bought the young man’s life.” “Oh, say those words again, Ed ward. Blessed be God for them,” added the lady fervently. I’he husband drew his arm around his wife and murmured fervently, “Blessed be God, Mary who put it in to your heart to do this good deed.” “A Dollar or Two.” We clip the following sensible article from an exchange, and think it has hit the right place for making times easy.
