autumn.
BY MBS. LYDIA 11. SIGOURNEY.
<» 11,, it come, (lie time to fade!”
AnJ with a murmuring sigh
The Maple, in his motley rolie,
\Va» the first to make reply ;
And the queenly Dahlia* drooped
Upon their thrones of state ;
For the frost king with his baneful kiss,
Had well forestalled their fate.
Ilyilrangla, on her telegraph,
A hurried signal traced
Os treason dark, that fain would lay
Bright Summer’s r'g'°n waste,
quick the proud exotic peers
In consternation tied,
And refuge in their greenhouse sought,
Before the day of dread.
The Vine that o’er my casement climbed,
And clustered day hv day,
I count its leaflets every morn ;
Sec how they fade away!
And as'thcy, withering, one by one,
Forsake their parent tree,
I call each sear and yellow leaf
A buried friend to me.
«< Put on thy mourning,” said my soul,
“And with a tearful eye,
Walk softly mid the many graves
Where thy companions lie;
The Violet, like a loving halm,
When the vernal sons were new,
That met thee with a soft, blue eye,
And lip all bathed'in dew.
«< The Lily, as a timid bride,
While summer suns were fiiir,
That put her snowy hand in thine,
To bless thee for thy care;
The trim and proud Anemone;
The Daisy from the Vale;
The purple Lilac tow’ring high,
To guard its sister pale.
“The ripened Ruse—where are they now 1”
But from the rifled bower,
There came a voice—“ Take heed to note
Thine own receding hour ;
And let the strange and silver hair,
That o’er thy temple strays,
Be as a monitor to tell
The Autumn of thy days.”
FLOWERS.
BY MBS. SUB A SMITH.
Faeh leaflet is a tiny scroll
inscribed with holy truth,
A lesssn that around the heart
Should keep the dew of youth i
Brib'd missals from angelic throngs
In ever;/ by-way left,
How were the earth of glory shorn
Were it of flowers bereft !
They tremble on the Alpine heights,
The fissured reck they press,
The desert wild, with heat and sand,
Shares too their blessedness;
An 1 wheresoe’er the weary heart
Turns in its dim despair,
The meek eyed blossom upward looks,
Inviting it to prayer !
IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT.
Os old, to debtors that insolvent died,
Egypt the right of sepulture denied ;
A different trade enlightened Christians drive,
And comfortably bury them alitc!
“ THE MYSTERIES OF PARIS.”
A N IVEL BY EUGENE SUE.
A ‘friend and fellow-citizen’ of ours
(says the Knickerbocker for Octoner) —
Ins tr instated, so far as published, a se
rial novel, just jow making 1 a great noise
• n the literary circles of the French cap
ftal.cnlitku Ecc Mysteries de Paris,'
by Eugene Sue. Premising that our
readers '■fill soon have an opportunity of
perusing in an English translation some
of the most striking of the very remarka
ble sketches of this Dickens of France,
we shall content ourselves for the present
with a single extract, embodying a sim
p!e, but as it strikes us, a very touching
and impressive scene. The Rodolphe
of the passage below is a German prince,
who has come to Paris, and who goes
forth in disguise to seek out worthy ob
jects of benevolence. lie encounters in
La, Cite,' a quarter of the town occupied
by the most abandoned classes, a girl of
beautiful, melancholy countenance,called
in the peculiar language of the inhabi
tants, ‘La GoHaleuse ,’ or ‘ Fleur de
Marie,' who turns out, in the subsequent
progress of the story, to be a child of his
own, who he supposed to be dead, but
who in fact h id been left in the streets by
her nurses, lie proposes to take her into
tire country with him; and the effects
which local objects produce upon her
mind is very beautifully described in the
little episode of ‘The Rose-bush,’ which
will be found in the opening of the story.
The whole tale forcibly illustrates what
a French metropolitan contemporary
terms the ‘ inequisable imagination’ of
Eugene Sue ,
‘ I believe you, andjl Thank you ; but
answer me frankly : is it equally agreea
ble what pari of the country we go to V
‘ Oh, it is all the same to me, Monsieur
Rodolphe,as long as it is the country ;it
is so pleasant; the pure air is so good to
breathe! Do you know that for five
months I have been no farther than the
flower market, and if the ogresse ever
allowed ms to go out of the Cite, it was
because she had confidence in me 7
‘ And when you came to this market,
was it to buy flowers?’
‘ Oh, no : 1 had no money ; I only came
to see them ; to inhale their rich perfume.
>-'or tlie haif hour that the ogresse allow
ed me to pass on the quai during mar
ket days, 1 was so happy that I forgot all.’
‘ And when you returned to the or
gresse—to those horrid streets?’
‘ I came back more sorrowful fVtn
when l set out. I choked down my
tears, that I might not receive a beating.
I tell you what it was at the market
which made m* envious, oh ! very envi
zws; it was lo sec the little 'ouvrieres,'
so neatly clad, going off so gaily with a
tine pot of flowers in their arms !’
• 1 am sure, if you had only had some
flowers in your window, they would have
been companions for you.’
‘ It is very true what you say, Monsieur
Rcdolphe. Imagine: one day the ogresse
at her fete, knowing my love for flowers,
gave me a little rose-bush. If you could
only know how happy l was ! I was no
louver lonesome ! 1 could not keep trom
looking at rny rose-bush. 1 amused my
self in counting its leaves, its flowers. . .
But the air is so bad in La Cite that at
the end of two days it began to fade. . .
But you’ll laugh at me, Monsieur Ro
dolphe ?’
‘ No, no ! Go on ! go on !’
‘ Well then, I asked permission from
the ovresse to take my bush out for an
airing ; yes, as I would have taken out a
child. I brought it to the quai; I thought
to myself, that being in company with
other flowers, in this fine and balmy air,
would do it good. 1 moistened its poor
withered leaves with the pure water of
the fountain, and then I warmed it awhile
in the sun. I)ear little rose-tree 1 it never
saw the sun in La Cite, for in our street
it comes no lower than the roof. At
length I returned ; and 1 assure you,
Monsieur Rodolphe, that my rose-bush
lived perhaps ten days longer than it
would have done without the airings.’
1 J believe it; but when it died ! —that
must have been a great loss to you.’
‘ I wept for it; 1 was very sorry. . .
Beside, Monsieur Rodolphe, since you
understand how one can love flbwers, I
can tell it to you. Well, I felt grateful
for to it. Ah! now this time you are
laughing at me!’
‘ No, no ! I love, I adore flowers ; and
thus 1 can comprehend all the foolish
things they cause one to commit,or which
they inspire.’
% ‘ Eh bien !’ ‘I felt grateful to this poor
rose-bush, for having flowered so prettily
for me—such a one as me!’ The gou
aleuse held down her head and became
purple with shame.
‘Poor child ! with this consciousness
of your horrible position, you must have
often . . . .’
‘ Had a wish to put an end to it ? Is it
not so, Monsieur Rodolphe V said la
Gotialeuse, interrupting her companion.
> ‘ Oh ! yes ; more than once 1 have looked
at the Seine from the parapet. But then
I turned to the flowers, the sun, and I said
to myself, ‘ The river will always be
there . . . . lam only sixteen . . .
who knows?’
‘When you said, ‘ Who knows V you
had a hope ?’
‘ Yes.’
‘ And what did you hope for ?’
‘I do not know. 1 hoped—yes, I ho
ped, ‘ malgre mol.' At those moments, it
seemed to me that my fate was not mer
ited ; that there was some good left in me.
I said to myself, ‘ I have been very much
troubled,but at least. 1 have never harmed
any one. . . if I had only had someone
to counsel me, I should not he where l
am. That dissipated my sorrow a little.
After all, 1 must confess that these
thoughts occurred oftener after the loss
of my rose-bush,’ added la Goualeuse, in
a solemn manner, which made Rodolphe
smile. *
1 This great grief always . . .’
‘ Yes ; took here !’—anil la Coualcuse
drew from her pocket a little packet care
fully tied with a pink favor.
‘ You have preserved it !’
‘ I think so! it is all 1 possess in the
word.’
‘ How ! have you nothing you can call
your own ?’
‘ Nothing.’
‘ But this coral necklace !‘
‘ It belongs to the ogresse.’
‘ How !do you not own a rag ?—a hat ?
—a handkerchief?’
‘No, nothing; nothing but the dry
leaves of my withered rose-bush ; it is
on this account I prize it so much.’
‘ At each word the astonishment of Ro
dolphe was redoubled. He onld not
comprehend this frightful slavery, this
horrible sale of [soul and body lor a
wretched shelter, a few tatterad clothes,
and impure nourishment.
They arrived at the ‘ Quai aux
Fears.' A carriage was in waiting. Ro
dolphe assisted his companion to get in,
and after placing himself at her side, said
tc the coachman :
‘To Saint Denis ; I will tell you di
rectly which road to take.’
The horses started ; the sun was radi
ant; the sky without a cloud : but the
cold was a little sharp, and the air circu
lated briskly, through the open windows
of the carriage.
* * * * * *
At this moment they drew near to
Sain Ouen, at the juncture of the road to
Saint Denis and the Cheinin de la Re
volte.
‘ Notwithstanding the monotonous ap
pearance of the country, Flenr-de-Marie
was so delighted at seeing the fields, that
forgetting the thoughts which sad reflec
tions had awakened in her mind, her
charming face brightened up ; she leaued
out of the window, and cried :
‘ Monsieur Rodolphe ! what delight! .
Fields ! and thickets ! If you would only
let me alight! The weather is so fine !
1 would like so much to ruu m the mead
ows !’
‘We will take a ran, my child.—
Coachman, stop!’
‘ How ! you also, Monsieur Rodo’plic !’
‘ I also! yes, we will make it a holiday.’
‘ What happiness ! Monsieur Ro
dolphe !’
And Rodolphe and Flenr-de-Marie,
hand in hand, ran over the new-mown
field until they were out of breath.
To attempt to describe the little gam
bols, the joyous shouts, the fresh delight
of Fleur-de-Marie would be impossible.
Poor gazelle ! for so lonu’ time a prisoner,
site breathed the pure air with intoxica
tion. She came, she went, she ran, she
stopped, always with new transports. —
At tlie sight of seveial ttills of daises, and
some marigolds, spread by tne first frosts
of approaching winter, she could not re
frain from fresh exclamations of delight.
She did not leave a single flower, but
gleaned the whole meadow. After hav
ing thus ran over the fields—soon tired,
being unaccustomed to so much exercise
—the young girl pausing to take breath,
seated herself on the trunk of a tree,
which lay prostrate near a deep ditch.
The fair and transparent complexion of
Fleur-de-Marie, ordinarily too pale, was
now shaded with the most lively color.
Her large blue eyes shone sweetly ; her
rosy mouth, half-open, disclosed her
pearl-like teeth ; and her heart throbbing
under the little orange shawl, she kept
one hand on her bosom as if to compress
its pulsations,’while with the other she
extended to Rodolphe theflowers she had
gathered. Nothing could be more charm
ing than the innocent, joyous expression,
which shone in that lovely face.
As soon as she could speak, she said to
Rodolphe with touching naivete:
‘ How kind is the Bon Dieu lor hav
ing giveh Us such a fine day !’
‘ A tear came to the eyes of Rodolphe,
as he heard this poor abandoned, despis
ed, lost creature, without home, without
bread, offering thus a cry of joy and
thanks to the Creator, for the enjoy
ment of a ray of sunshine and the sight
of a meadow !
Fire and M ater-Proof Cement.
—To half a pint of milk put an equal
quantity of vinegar, in order to curdle it;
then separate the curd from the whey,
and mix the whey with four or five eggs,
beating the whole well together. When
it is well mixed, add a little quick-lime
through a sieve, until it has acquired the
consistence of a thick paste. With this
cement, brokerwvessels and cracks of all
kinds may be mended. It dries quickly,
and resists the action of water, as well as
a considerable degree of fire.—Mechan
ic's Own Booh.
To WASH WOOLI.EN GOODS. — The
art of washing woollen goods so as to
prevent them from shrinking is one of
the desiderata in domestic economy wor
thy of being recorded ; and it is, there
fore, with a satisfaction we explain this
simple process to our readers. All de
scriptions of woollen goods should be
washed in very hot water with soap;
and, as soon as the article is cleansed,
immerse it in cold water; let it then be
hung up to dry. —Nashville Agricultu
rist.
Recipe.— The fumes of brimstone
are useful in removing stains of linen,
&c.—thus, if a red rose be held in fnmbs
of a brimstone match, the color will soon
begin to change, and at length tlie flower
will become white. By the same pro
cess, fruit stains or iron moulds may be
removed from linen or cotton clothes, if
the spots be previously moistened with
water.
Beautiful experiment avith a
plant.— The Brooklyn News gives the
following interesting bit of information:
“Cut a small branch of oleander from a
thrifty plant, place it in a vial partly fill
ed with rain water, so that the lower
end of the branch may be immersed
about half an inch in water. Place this
in the sun in an open room, and in about
fifteen or twenty days small roots will
shoot out from the end of the branch,
presenting a beautiful appearance. After
these roots have extended two or three
incites, the branch may be set out in
moist earth, and if frequently watered,
it will grew rapidly, and soon form a!
large thrifty stock. Ladies who are fond
of flowers may easily propagate olean
ders in this manner, and in a few months
multiply these beautiful plants to an in
definite extent.”
Hydraulics. —A man has been fined
fifteen dollars in Troy, for whipping a
journeyman with a stout piece of rate
hide. This Ephraim has entered in
tile Star as a case of hide-raw-licks.
Ivory Nut. —A nut has recently been
brought to England, and a few of them
thence to this” country, resembling the
horse-chesnut in its c-x’terior appearance,
but the interior is solid, and white, as
hard as ivory, and resembles the ele
phant’s tooih so exactly that none would
suspect it of being any thing else. It is
so hard as to receive a polish even supe
rior to ivory and can only be cut in a
lathe. When taken from the tree it is a
milky pulp, and may be reduced to that
state again in warm water. We have a
sample of the article on our desk, made
into a match box.— Jour, of Commerce.
A Goon Match. —“ How has yocr daughter mar

LOVE.
Ah, list not to tlie crimson bird,
That sings on yonder vine;
There is a voice of sweeter note—
’Tis thine, sweet Love, ‘lis thine.
Ah. gaze not on the fir-off stars,
Which richest gems outshine;
There is a gem of purer light—
’ Tis thine, sweet Love, ’tis thine.
Ah, smile not on the sunny glow,
Where rose and lily twine;
There is a blush of softer hue—
’Tis thine, sweet Love, ’tis thine.
My evening and my morning star —
My song-bird on the bough—
My summer flower of softest dye—
Art thou, sweet Love, art thou !
CIRCULAR.
Tlie time has arrived, when, it lias become neces
sary for the Friends of Free Trade lo unite in sus
taining their cause.
The commercial community and agricultural pop
ulation of the country, have been subjected to the
operation of an unequal and unjust Tariff Law. A
law, admitted by its framers and advocates, to have
been hastily devised and hurriedly acted on, forced
through Congress at the close of an extra session,
and adopted by a single casting vote. A law, which
makes lorced loans train importers, in the way of
cash duties, amounting on an average to 30 per cent,
of their capital A law, which by heavily taxing ma
terials used in ship building, being equal lo S3 per
ton, which, on a vessel of 600 tons, amounts to the
enormous sum of 83,500 is driving our ships from the
foreign carrying trade. Foreign and cheaper built
vessels monopolize to a great extent, the business
which was formerly done by our ships.
The friends of Free Trade, contend that justice to
the Merchants, Ship Builders, ami Ship Owners, and
to the Farmers of the country, demands an immedi
ate modification opt his oppressive Tariff Law. They
contend, that, the Agricultural and Commercial in
terests of the United States are indissolubly united.
That, the prosperity and extension of tiade and com
merce, necessarily promotes the extension and pros
perity of agriculture.
They believe the power granted to Congress by
the Constitution, to regulate commerce, was not in
tended to he used for its destruction.
They believe it bad policy for the government, in
time of profound peace, under pretence of passing a
revenue bill, to pass a bill destroying revenue, and
then borrow money with which to carry on the gov
ernment, and at the same time laying the foundation
of a large public debt.
They believe a crisis has been reached in the af
fairs of the country, when these measures must be
met, resisted aud overcome, by the united aud effi
cient action of the friends of free trade.
From the signs of the times, should the advocates
of commercial restriction and unequal taxation, suc
ceed in electing their candidate for the Presidency,
the disastrous result will be, that we shall have the
severe grievances of which we justly complain, fas
tened upon us as the permanent policy of the coun-
try.
To avoid an event fraught with such evil conse
quences, it behooves us to unite with others in the
support of a Free Trade Candidate for the Presiden
cy. The time for action is short. In a few more
months, an individual may be selected, as President,
whose opinions, power and influence, might be fear
fully exerted against us. Or one, whose views, feel
ings and opinions coincide with our own.
Something should be done. Ai the present time,
the Press ot this city occupies a position unfavorable
to tlie success of our cause. The necessity for a
new paper is evident, from the fact that at present,
none ot the papers of this city advocate to the full
extent, and with sullicicnt energy and zeal, the piiu
ciples for which w e contend.
A paper of this character seems at the present
juncture indispensable. It should be in its ends and
aims, essentially a Free Trade paper; and at the same
time, advocate the claims to otiice, of men in whose
! undisguised principles, we might place the most im
plicit confidence.
A Committee of Free Trade Gentlemen, have
been organized to solicit subscriptions from persons
disposed lo contribute means, towards starting in ibis
city, as soon as practicable, anew Cohrereial aud
Free Trade paper, with the intention, at the same
time of lendim* its honest and fair support for the
Presidency, to the candidate w hose opinions are well
known to be favorable to a liberal Commercial policy.
Writers of acknowledged ability, zeal and indus
try, will have charge of tlie Editorial columns.
Talents of the highest order will be engaged to
take charge of the respective Departments of the
paper.
The state of the Money Market, with Reports of
Banks, Incorporated Joint Stock Companies, Procee
dings of Congress, and of State Legislatures, in re
lation to all financial affairs, with regular tables of
Exchange Domestic and Foreign, combined with
general groupings of all monetary movements taking
place in all parts of the civilized world, will form a
permanent feature of the paper.
Another department of the paper will be devoted
to information concerning the state of the principal
Markets of the world for Agricultural products. Cor
respondence will also be established with the farm
ing and planting districts of the interior, in order to
obtain tlie latest news of tlie extent aud prospects of
the growing crops.

TIIE PETERSBURG REPUBLICAN.
Believing the present to be a crisis too important to
tiie interests of the . emocratic party to allow any press
devoted toils cause to sink for want of support, the
subscriber has, at the instance of many friends, con
sented to assume the editorial guidance of the Peters
burg Republican.
Recognizing in the late temporary defeat of D moc
raey the necessity of recurrence for future success to
the fundamental principles of States’ Rights, and their
strict application to all Federal issues. The Republi
can will neither in itself exhibit laxity of political faith,
nor tolerate its indulgence in others, but will undevia
tingly adhere to the noble principles, as admirably em
bodied by one of our distinguished Statesmen—‘Free
trade; low duties ;no debt; seperation from Banks;
economy; retrenchment; and strict adherance to the
Constitution.”
The successful maintenance and permanent estab
lishment of this wt-e and just system of measures must
greatly depend on the judicious selection of the l>emo
cratic candidate lor the next Presidency, and believing
the amplest guarantee of these ini|>ortant ends to be
afforded by the eminent abilities and unsulfied faith of
JOHN C. CALHOUN, the Republican will advocate
his claims to tlie nomination of the National Conven
tion. These claims will lie cnlitrced w ith due respect
to the preferences of others, and the cordial support of
this press will be given to the Nominee of a Conven
tion so assembled as to he general, and so constituted
as to give a clear expression to the will of the majority.
The Petersburg Ri publican will, as heretofore, be
published three tunes a week, at Five Dollars per an

PROS P R C T U S
OF THE
SOUTHERN QUARTERLY REVIEW.
This work has now been a year before the public,
during* which period its reputation has been so suc
cessfully established, and its circulation so widely
extended, as to justify the hope and belief that it will
long continue to be one of the principal organs of
Soiulicru Political Interests, and one of the chief or
naments of Southern Literature. The brilliant
character of the late Southern Review shed around
Charleston and the South, a halo which will not soon
he forgotten ; the Southern Quarterly ha3 risen, af
ter many toilsome efforts, from its ashes, and it b
trusted that it will prove itself a worthy successor if
the glory of the former. Nothing more is now re
quisite to ensure its permanence than the continued
and cordial support of the inhabitants ol the South
ern portions ot the Union; and an appeal is confi
dently made to the generous and patriotic feelings
of all Southerners, not to suffer the present Review
to languish from the want of that sustenance which
they can so well afford.
In its political character this Review will be Dem
ocratic, and while avoiding carefully schiind merely
local in their nature, it will strenuously uphold South
ern Interests, and advocate all questions of national
importance with boldness and freedom. It is not in
tended, however, absolutely to exclude all articles
maintaining principles difleYent from our own; but if
otherwise worthy of admission, they will be inserted
w ith a notice that the Editors do not hold themselves
responsible for the doctrinek alleged. All religious
discussions of a sectarian nature will be scduously
eschewed, and the Review will preserve a perfect
impartiality towards all religious denominations.
Tire work will be printed on the best paper, and
with the best type, and every exertion will he made
to render it worthy of the patronage of the public
generally. It will he issued quarterly from Charles
ton, in January, April, July and October; andariange*
ments have been made, since its remobal to this city»
to insure the regular and punctual of every
number a3 it appears, so that no disappointment tnay
hareafter arise from any failure in this respect.
Mr. Ritchie having withdraw n from the work, the
Subscrher, in order that more time and attention
may he devoted to its improvement, and to the accu
racy arid excellence of cacti number, has associated
with himseH in tire Editorial management of the
Review, that distinguished scholar, G. F*edebic*
HoLMfcs, Esq. of Orangeburg, and every effort will
be made on the partol both to give every satisfaction
to its patrons.
Inconsequence of the removal of the Soutn* rn
Review to Charleston, and the reduction in the cx*
pensesof printing and publishing attendant thereon,
the price of the work will henceforward be reduce
from Ten Dollars to Five Dollars, payable annual 1 )
in advance. The fifth number, which will coni*
mcnce another year, will appear early it* January,
1943, for which abundant material have been already
procure and. Many of the best writers end most p ro '
found scholars of the country have already pledg'd
themselves to furnish articles for the ensuing year,
and the list of contributors is daily increasing lo
talent, in respectability and in number.
