POETRY. The Horse and the Locomotive. “Ila! ha !” said the horse, and he capered with glee Hound the meadow that skirted the way, “There’ll be very little more use now for me To be harnessed to carriages—heigh 1 tVhat a curious creature they 've got to that train — What a puflling and snorting he makes ' And ’tissaid that he eats neither fodder nor grain— Wood and water are all that he takes. His stomach is stronger than that of a horse, To manage such horrible stufl ’Tis just as if I should eat fence rails, or worse, And yet he has never enough ! And then what a spirit the fellow retains ! So tireless —his bottom is good ; And he never turns tail to the winds or the rains, And all must get out of his road! And the old horse laughed loudly, “He ! he ! he ! he' Let them drive on as fast as they please— A fig for the railways—the meadows for me, To ramble or rest at my case 1 And the horse capered on a spree of delight, And I’ve nothing further to tell, Tor I scarcely had time, ere we were out of sight, To hid the old follow farewell. The Season. BY T. 1 iOOD. Summer’s gone and over 1 Togs are falling down ; And with russet tinges, Autumn’s doing brown. Boughs are daily rifled By the. gusty thieves, And the Book of Nature, Getteth short of leaves. Round the tops of houses, •Swallows, as they flit, Give like yearly tenants, Notices to quit. Skies, of fickle temper, Weep by turns and laugh— Night and Day together, Taking half-and-half. So September endeth— Cold and most perverse— But the months that follow, Sure will pinch us worse. lit/CLi.fLi'i ! 1 1 h iV'iV.U'l O H cia From the New Mirror. Byron's Death-Love and Warning. [Told t» the writer by a lady who had been Byron's intimate friend.] It was getting; towards midnight when a party of young noblemen came out from one of the clubs of St. James street. The servant of each, as he stepped upon the pavement, threw up the wooden apron of the cabriolet, and sprang to the head of the horse ; but, as to the destination of the equipages for the evening, there seemed to be some dissensions among the noble matters. Betwixt the line of the coronctted vehicles, stood a hackney coach, and a person in the attitude of ex . pectancy pressed as near the exhilirated group as lie could without exciting im mediate attention. “Which way!” said he, whose vehi cle was nearest, standing with his foot on the step. “All together, of course,” said another, “Let’s make a night of it.” “Pardon me,” said the clear sweet voice of the last out of the club ; “I se cede tor one. Go your ways, gentle men !” “Now, what the deuce is afoot ?” said the foremost, again stepping back oh the sidewalk. “Don’t let him off, Fitz! Is your cab here, Byron, or will you let me drive you ? By Jove, you shan’t leave us!” “But you shall leave me, and so you are not lorsworn, my friend ! In plain phrase, 1 won't go with you ! And I don’t know where I shall go; so spare your curiosity the trouble of asking. 1 have a presentiment that I am wanted by devil or angel— “ I see a hand you cannot see.” “And a very pretty hand it is, I dare swear,” said the former speaker, jumping into his cab and starting off with a spring of his blood horse, followed by all the vehicles at the club-door, save one. Byron stood looking after them a mo ment, and raised his hat and pressed his hand hard on his forehead. The un known person who had been lurking near, sermed willing to leave him for a moment to his thoughts, or was embar rassed at approaching a stranger. As Byron turned with his' halting step to de scend the steps, however, he came sud denly to his side. “My lord !” he said, and was silent, as if waiting permission to go on. “Well,” replied Byron, turning to him without the least surprise, and looking closely into his face by the light ol the street-lamp. “I am come to you with an errand whith perhaps ” “A strange one, I am sure; but I am prepared for it—l have been forewarned of it. What do you require of me ? for i am ready!” “This is strange!” exclaimed the man. “lias another messenger, then ” “None except a spirit—for my heart alone told me that I should be wanted at this hour. Speak at once.” “My lord, a dying girl has sent for you !” “Do I know her ?” “She has never seen you. Will you come at once—and on the way I will explain to you what I can of this singu lar errand; though, indeed, when it is told you, you know all that i cornprc itend.” 1 They were at the door of the hackney coach, and Byron entered it without ma king any further remark. “Back again !” said the stranger, as the coachntaft closed the door, and drive for dear life, for we shall scarce be in time, 1 fear !” The heavy longue of St. Paul’s church struck twelve ns the lonely' vehicle hur ried on through the now lonely street, and though so far from the place from whence they started, neither ol the two occupants had spoken. Byron sat with hare head and folded arms in the corner of the coach ; and the stranger, with his hat crowded over his eyes, seemed re pressing some violent emotion ; and it was only when they stopped before a low door in a strreet close upon the river, that the latter found utterance. “Is she alive ?” lie hurriedly asked of a woman who came out at the sound of the carriage wheels. “She was—a moment since—but be quick!” Byron followed quickly on the heels of his companion, and passing through a dimly lighted entry to the door of a back room, they' entered. A lamp, shaded by a curtain of spotless purity, threw a faint light upon a bed, upon which lay a girl, watched by' a physician and a nurse,— The physician had just re'moved a small mirror from her lips, and holding it to the light, he whispered that' she still breathed. As Byron passed the edge of the curtain, however, the dying girl mo ved the fingers of the hand lying on the coverlet, and slowly opened on him her languid eyes—eyes of inexorable depth and lustre. No one had spoken. “Here he is,” she murrnered. “Raise me, mother, while 1 have time to speak to him.” Byron looked around the small cham ber, trying in vain to break* the spell of awe which the scence threw over him. An apparition from the other world could j not have checked more fearfully and completely the worldly and scornful un der current of his nature. He stood with his heart beating almost-audibly, and his knees trembled beneath him, awaiting what lie prophetically felt to be a warn ing from the very gate of Heaven. Propped with pillows, and left by her attendants, the. dying girl turned her head towards the proud, noble poet, standing by her bed side, and a slight blush overspread her features, while a smile of angelic beauty stole through her lips. In that smile the face re-awakened to its former loveliness, and seldom had he who now gazed breathlessly upon her, looked on such spiritual and incom parable beauty. The spacious forehead and noble cantour, still visible, of the emaciated lips, bespoke genius impressed upon a tablet all feminine ’in its lan guage ; and in the motion of her hand, and even in the slight movement of her graceful neck, there was something that still breathed of surpassing elegance, It was the shadowy wreck of no ordinary mortal passing away, humble as were the surroundings, and strange as had been his summons to her bedside. “And this is Byron !” she said at last, in a voice bewilderingsweeteven through its weakness. “My lord ! I could not die without seeing you—without relieving my soul of a mission with which it lias long been burthened. Come nearer—for 1 have no time kft for ceremony, and I must say what I have to say—and die ! Beatiful,” she said, “beautiful as the dream of him which has so long haunted me ! the in tellect and the person of a spirit of light! Pardon me, my lord, that a moment so important to yourself, the remembrance of an earthly feeling has been bctrftyed in expression.” She paused a moment, and the bright color that had shot through her cheek and brow faded, and her countenance re sumed its heavenly serenity. “1 am near enough to death,” she re sumed—“near enough to point you id most to Heaven from where 1 am ; and it is on my heart like the one errand of my life—like the bidding of God—to im plore you to prepare for judgment. Oh, my lord! witii your glorious powers, with your wondrous gilts, be not lost! Do not, for the poor pleasures of a world like this, lose an eternity in which your great mind will outstrip the intelligence ol angels. Measure this thought—scan the worth of angelic bliss with the intel lect which has ranged so gloriously' through the universe ; do not, on this one momentous suLject ol human inter est —<?n this alone be not short-sighted.” “What shall 1 do?” suddenly" burst Irom Byron s lips in a tone of agony', lint with an effort, as if struggling"\vith a death-pang, he again drew up Ins form and resumed the marble calmness of his countenance. The dying girl, meanlime, seemed to have 4fe|t herself in prayer. With her wastetWands clasped on her bosom, and her eyes turned upwards, the slight mo tion ol her lips betrayed to those around her that she was pleading at the throne ol mercy. '1 he physician crept close to her bedside, but with his hand in his breast, and liis head bowed, he seemed but watching lor the moment when the soul should take liight. She suddenly raided herself on the pil low. Her long brown tresses fell over her shoulders, and a brightness unnatu ral and almost fearful kindled in her eyes. She seemed endeavoring to speak and gazed steadfastly at Byron. Slowly, then and tranquilly she sank back again upon her pillow, and as her hands fell apart, and her eyelids dropped, she mur mured. “Corne to heaven !” and the still ness of death was in the room.—The spirit had lied.

It will be devoted to the spread of true Democratic princi ples and will adopt for its motto the words of the Hon. John C-Calhoun —“Free Trade; Low Duties; No Debt; Separation from Banks ; Economy, Retrench ment ; and strict adherence to the Constitution nnd will bear nloft his truly Democratic banner. It will al so strongly advocate the limitation of the tenure of the Presidential office tocne term —not only in justice to te distinguished public men of the nation, hut as more consonant to th» genius of our Republican institutions and more conducive to a faithful and independent ad ministration of the Government. As the most direct and effective mode of securing the permanent ascendancy of these cardinal princi ples, the Spectator will zealously urge upon the coun try the claims of the distinguished Southern States man for the Presidency. In doing this, it will not he unmindful of the integrity and safety of the Republi can Party, and will manifest a proper regard for the pretensions of the prominent individuals who have been named for this high trust, and are identified with the advancement of these principles. The Spectator will he edited by one of the ablest and most experien ced political writers of the day. The terms are three dollars per year, in advance, for a single copy. Clubs and individuals, ordering more than one copv, and forwarding the amount of subscriptions in ad vance, will receive them on the following terms: Five -§liars per annum for two copies. Twelve dollars per annum for live copies. Twenty dollars per annum for ten copies. No paper will be sent without a remittance of the sub scription. All communications must be addressed to the sub scriber. JoHN HEART. Washington, D. C-, March 13, 1843. THE GAZETTE. The time has arrived, when, it has become neces sary for the Friends of Free Trade to unite in sus taining their cause. The commercial community and agricultural pop ulation of the country, have been subjected to the operation of an unequai 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 extrasession, and adopted by a single casting vote. A law, which makes forced loans from importers, in the way of cash duties, amounting ou an average to 30 per cent, of their capital. A law, which by heavily taxing ma terials used in ship building, being equal to 85 per ton, which, on a vessel of 600 tons, amounts to the enormous sum of 33,500 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, and Ship Owners, and to the Farmers of the country, demands an immedi ate modification of this oppressiv%Tariff Law. They contend, that, the Agriculturaf and Commercial in terests of the United Slates are indissolubly united. That, the prosperity and extension of trade 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 be 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 and overcome, by the united and 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 il*c*couu 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 mouths, an individual maybe 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 bo done. At the present time, the Press of this city occupies a position unfavorable to the success of our cause. The necessity for a new paper is evident, from the fact that at present, none of the papers of this city advocate to the full extent, and with sufficient energy and zeal, the pnn ciples for w’hich « e contend. A paper of this character seems at the presen juncture indispensable. It should he in its ends and aims, essentially a Free Trade paper; andat the s4ine time, advocate the claims to office, of men in whose undisguised principles, we might place the most in> plicit confidence. A Committee of Free Trade Gentlemen, have been urbanized to solicit subscriptions from persons disposed to contribute means, towards starting in this city, as soon as practicable, anew Comercial and Free Trade paper, with the intention, at the same time of lending its honest and fair support for the Presidency, to the candidate whose opinions are well known to be favorable to a liberal Commercial policy. Writers of acknowledged ability, zeal and indus try, will have charge of the Editorial columns. Talents of the highest order will be engaged to take charge of the respective Departments of the paper. Tlie 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 geneva! 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 stnte of the principal Markets of the tvorld for Agricultural products. Cor respondence will also be established with the farm ing and planting districts of the interior, in order to obtain the latest news of the extent and prospects of the growing crops. Your aid in promoting the objects expressed in the above circular, is respectfully solicited, with that of your friends, which can he remitted by mail, in the way of subscribers, or other contributions, to the address of I. F. Hutton, 47 1-2 Wall street, or to E. 15. Hart, 13 Wall street, New York. PROPOSALS.—{t is proposed to publish a paper that in connection with the objects above expressed, shall also support the claims of the Hon. JOHN C. CALHOUN, for the Presidency of the United Slates, subject to the decision of a National Convention of Delegates, sent directly from the People. A Daily and Weekly paper, will be issued, of the full ordinary size, printed on good paper and with en tire new type. The price for the Daily will be $6 00 and for the Weekly, S3 00 per annum, payable in all cases, in advance. Single copies of the Daily will be two cents, and and of the Weekly, six cents each. Postmasters are authorised by a law of Congress to remit funds ur subscriptions for newspapers free of expense. Mew York, September, 1343. THE PETERSBURG REPUBLICAN. Bf.lieving the present to he a crisis too important to the interests of the Democratic party to allow any press devoted to its 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 Democ racy the necessity of recurrence for future success to the fundamental principles of Slates’ Rights, and their strict application to all Federal issues. The Republi can wilt neither in itself exhibit laxity of political faith, nor tolerate its indulgence in others, but will undevia ttngly 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 wise and just system of measures must greatly depend on the judicious selection of the Demo cratic candidate for the next Presidency, and believing the ninplest guarantee of these important ends to be afforded by the eminent abilities and unsullied faith of JOHN C. CALHOUN, the Republican will advocate Ins claims to the nomination of the National Conven tion. These claims will be enforced with due respect to tiic preferences of others, and the cordial support of this press will he given fto the Nominee of a Conven tion so assembled as to be general, and so constituted as to give a clear expression to the will of the majority. The Petersburg Republican will, as heretofore, he published three tunes a week, at live Dollars per an num, aiways payable in advance.

TIIE undersigned, nt the solicitation of many friends proposes to publish, in the village of Marietta, Cobb County Georgia, a weekly newspsper under the abovel title. He is assured that a well conducted newspaper is much wanted in this region, and so far as his humble efforts will go, should he meet with encouragement, the Advocate shall add to the reputation of the Chero kee Country, affording as it does, the most salubrious clime, with a fertile and productive soil, not surpassed in the Union. The Advocate will be decided in its poli ics, while at the same lime due respect will be paid to the opinions of those who may diff r with us. Believing in a strict construction of the Constitution, as the only sure guar antee to the Institutions of the South, and of the two great parties now before the country, that the Demo cratic Party, with John C. Calhoun at its head, is the one on which to look for the carrying out those princi pies, the Advocate will support the principles of that Party, and the man, whoever he may be, selected by the National Convention to carry out its principles. Agriculture —thatmost impertant branch of industry, will not be neglected in the pages of the Advocate. To this branch we shall devote much attention, and in addition, to such selected articles, as may be of interest to this section, we will endeaver to procure the assis tance of the formers in Western Georgia, who, by giv ing their own experience and mode of cultute, wil bring forward others, and thus all reap a benefit. The Advocate may also be looked to for such items of news as we may receive from different sections of the country, and a portion of its pages will be devoted to light reading. It will be an object of the undersigned to make the Advocate such a paper as every subscriber will feel a pleasure in perusing himself, and in placing before his family, and when his year expires, renew his subscription with a smile on his countenance. The Advocate will be printed on an Imperial sheet with new type, press, &c. at Three Dollars per an num, in advance—no subscription will be taken for less than a year- Advertisements will be inserted at One Dollar per square of twelve lines for the first inser tion, and Seventy-five Cents for each subsequent one— legal Advertisements will he inserted at the usual rates.

PROSPECTUS 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 organa of Southeru 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 be forgotten ” the Southern (Quarterly has risen, af ter many toilsome efforts, from its ashes, and it is trusted that it will prove itself a worthy successor of the glory of the former. Nothing more is now re quisite to ensure its permanence than the continued and cordial support of the inhabitants of the South ern portions of 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 schims 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 different from our own; but if otherwise worthy of admission, they will be inserted with a notice that the Editors do not hold themselves responsible for the doctrines alleged. All religious discussions of a sectarian nature will be seduously eschewed, and the Review will preserve a perfect impartiality towards all religious denominations. The work will be printed on the best paper, and with the best type, and every exertion will be made to render it worthy of the patronatre of the public generally. It will be issued quarterly from Charles ton, in Jauuary, April, July and October; and arrange ments have been made, since its romobal to this city, to insure the regular and punctual delivery of every number a3 it appears, so that no disappointment may hareafter arise from any failure in this respect. Mr. Ritchie having withdrawn from the work, the Subscrber, in order that more time and attention rnay he devoted to its improvement, and to the accu racy and excellence of eac number, has associated with himself in the Editorial rganagement of the Review, that distinguished scholar, G. Frederick Holmes, Esq. of Oransreburg, and every effort will he made on the part of both to give every satisfaction to its patrons. In consequence of the removal of the Southern Review to Charleston, nnd the reduction in the ex penses of printingand publishing attendant thereon, the price of the wo k will henceforward be reduced from Ten Dollars to Five Dollars, payable annually in advance. Ihe fifth number, which will corn- L-nce anotlm year, w;Jt appear early in January, 1 43, for wlnc.i abundant material have been already procured.
