FOR THE M CCO.V TELEGRAPH. Tbe breaking up of ibe Encampment of Camp Oglethorpe, near itlncon, May 4th, 1S44. The tents are struck—no more we see, The camp flags fluttering on high; No more is heard the song of glee, As night falls softly from the sky. Vanish’d the musket’s gleam,—and gone The flash of sword,—the ware of plume; And where the tent lamps often shone. Fast gathers now the forest gloom 1 Those spirits warm, who met to learn The aoldier'a duty, asd.y part; But parting—feel within them burn. A flame that springs from heart to heart. Kindness was full—unrestrain’d—unbound; It seem'd to float upon the air; It seem d to blend with ev'ry sound; In ev'ry thought appear'd to share I Who can forget those lovely eyes. That ay oke a welcome in each glance j Who think of moon, or starry akies, Wrapt in the spell of Beauty's trance ? Not soon forgotten, will be all Felt in that brief—but joyous stream; Remembrance on the heart will fall— Brightly, and sweetly as c dream. A SAVANNAH VOLUNTEER. Democratic Meeting in Pntnnm.

Gentlemen—Subsequent to my (lepnriure from jltUanil. in December last, I received various com- ntnications from popular assemblages and private itiwdva's, requesting an expression of my opinion the question of the Annexation of Texas to the ['sited States. I have forborne to reply to them, faause it teas not very convenient, during the pro- t ,fts of my journey, to do so, and for other reasons, jjid not think it proper, unnecessarily, to introduce H present a new element among the other exciting Ejects which agitate and engross the public mind, fit rejection of the overture of Texas, some years uo, to become annexed to the U. States, had met nth general acquiescence. Nothing had since occur- | ltd materially to vary the question. CcMtrnl Knit Rond Bank.

April 9, 1844. To a proper understanding of the estimate herewith sub mitted. a hewing the value nt the exports and imports of Eas tern Texas into and from the United States, which for rea sons that will be made obvious, are not to be found in any official Statistics, it will be necessary as a preliminary, to make a few explanatory remarks. That portion of Texas lying East of the Trinity, and mare particularly that range of -rountiei contiguous and adjacent to the Sshine'and Red Rivers, is familiarly known as -East ern Texas," in contradistinction to the Southern and Wes* tern sections of Texas lying upon tbe Gulf of Mexico and West of the Trinity River. By referring to a late map of Texas it will be perceived, that “Eastern Texas” embraces the counties of Jefferson, Jasper, Sabine, San Augustine, Nacogdoches. Shelby. Har rison. Bowie. Red River. Fannin and Latnar. A glance at the map will shew that the surplus produce ot these counties must necessarily seek the navigation of this Sabine or Red River for transportation to a market, and return of supp ie* Owing to the difficulties of the navigation of the Sabine, the whole exports and imports of these counties, with few exceptions, are transported upon the waters of Red River, of which trade New Orleans is the natural emporium. Eastern Texas is by for the most closely settled portion of Texas, and extensively engaged in the culture of cotton, which is the only staple exported from the country. The reason why the imports and exports of Eastern Texas do not enter into the aggregate of the cuinmercial statistics of Texas, will be resdily understood, when it is known that no duties are paid upon goods and merchandise introduced by the planters into Eastern Texa*.” So also, when it is known that the TI. S. have but two Revenue officers, stationed at isolated points on Red River, entrusted with the protection «f this whole frontier and possessing no extraordinary powers ofubiquity.it will not be expected thattlieycaneniure lhaiall •the Texas Cotton introduced into the United States through a frontier of 1500 miles in extent will neressanly pass into the New Orleans Custom House. -Probably Jibs of the whole crop of Texas cotton brought for shipment to the banks of Red River, goes to N*w Orleans as < f the gh-owth of the United States. Heuce there are no official statistic* in Texas or in the United States, shewing the amount of this reciprocal commerce. Houston Superior Courts .flair Term, 1844* Present hit Honor Edward D. Tract, Judge. T HE Grand Jury sworn, chosen and selected for the present term of the Court, beg leave to make the following presentment. In examining the books of thn Clerk of the Inferior Comt and Countv Treasurer, we take pleasure in re porting them tu he neatly and correctly kept; but we regret to notice much negligence on the pnrtofthe Jus tices of the (V ice in making prompt returns of the sales ol'estrays, as the delay sometimes subjects the Grand Jury to cuosiderttble difficulty in the exuininutiuu of the Estmy Book. Wt- recommend to the Judges ol the Inferior Court to levy an extra tax for nil necessary repairs of the Court House, to reader it comfortable, with strict attention to economy in the expenditure fur that purpose. .A nuisance which requires removal, is the impunity with which the public romls nre changed or moved at the option of the owners of the land through which they pass, and often obstructed so as to render them impas sable. The moving ot thn roads upon frivolous reasons we present ns a grievance, and call the attention of tbe Inf-iior Court to the evil. The alteration of the road leading from Fort Valley to Macon, made by Benjamin II. Gray, w-e present as n grievance- And in connec tion with this subject, we are forced to notice rite inat tention of the road commissioners to the enforcement of the road laws. We likewise recommend to the Inferior Court, in pur suance of mu act of th* Inst legislature, to levy an extra tux for the education of the poor. In taking leave of his Honor Judge Tracy, we tender him our sincere thanks for (lie ability, impartiality and patience, that he has manifested during the present term of the court. Also to Solicitor Geueral Wingfield, for the ability with which he hns-dischat'ged his duties, and the courtesy extended to this body.
