POETRY. ETE.IKHO I\ OBEBCE. The following pretty version of a Greek My thological Tale is from Tom Moore’s “ Evening in Greece"—a second volume of which has just appeared. As Lore, one summer eve, was straying, Who should he see, at that loft hour, But young Minerva, gravely playing Her flute, within an olive bower, 1 need not say, 'tis Love’s opinion That, grave or merry, good or ill, The sea bow all to his dominion. As woman will be woman still. Though seldom yet the boy hath given. To learned dames his smiles or sighs, So handsome Fallas look’d, that even Love quite forgot the maid was wise. Besides a youth of his discerning Knew well, that by a shady rill, At sunset hour—whate’er her learning— i A woman will be woman still. Her flute he praised in terms ecstatic, Wishing it dumb—nor car’d how soon— For wisdoms notes, howe’er chromatic, To love seem always out of tune. But Jong as he found breath to flatter, The nymph found breath to shake and trill ; As w eak or wise—it doth not matter— VV oman at heart, is woman still. Love chang'd his plan, with warmth exclaiming, “ How brilliant was her,lips’ softdye 1” And much that flute, the sly rouge, blaming. For twisting lips so sweet awry. I he nymph look'd down—beheld her features, Reflected in the passing rill, And started, shriek’d—for, ah, ye creatures ! Ev'u when divine, you’re women still. Quick from the lips it made so odious, I hat graceless flute the goddess took. And while yet filled with breath melodious, Hung it into the glassy brook ; W here, as Us vocal life was fleeting Adown the current, faint and shrill. At. distance long ’twas heard repeating, “ Woman,alas, vain woman still 1” AERICELTDBAL. /• rom the Mississippi Journal. COTTON SEED OH. FACTORY. It is with great pleasure that wo have it in > tjtir power to annouuce to the Southern plan, i tor, the success of the firm under the name! of No mud A. PlummerCo. (consisting of! the above named gentleman, his brother and our old and well-known friend Major Ander-1 son Miller) in the completion of their i extensive COTTON SEED OiE Factory ami which’ enterprise may be considered i the commencement, in this section of the United States, of anew era ; and bids fair to j make the Cotton I’lunter the most indepen dent of Agriculturists. it was with astonishment, that wo for the j first time examined this immense undcrtak-1 ing. It is but a few months since, that the j Compunv commenced this truly important cn- 1 terprise. i hey have now a substantial build-1 mg, eighty-four by eighty feet, one and a half | story high, completed n steam engine of 22 1-2 inch cylinder and five feet stroke, in full operation, drivings hulling machines to prepare and grind the kernel for heating; •eight cylenders for heating the metal; a cam and seven lever presses in proportion, to car ry on fhc business with despatch, and to the Raving of the manual labor. Every thing belonging to the establishment is new and bright,and moves with the greatest accuracy imaginable. The establishment is the largest for making of oil perhaps ever built in the I United States. It is capable, we learn, of I making from one thousand to two thousand ] gallons per day. There are but two other mills in the Uni- j fed Slates for making oil from cotton seed ; one in Pctersburgli, Va. and the other in N. I Carolina —both on a very small scale, scarce ly, more than a tenth as large as that wo have j described in this city of Natchez. The making of most excellent oil from cot- j ton seed is now no longer a matter of experi ment. The business is reduced to a certain ty ; one bushel of seeds will make •') quarts of oil. The oil is tested beyond the possibility of a doubt, as being among the best of paint oils, and of being easily refined,and answer ing as well a the very best winter strained spern oil foi la ups, without the least disagree able smell, : ns.vering admirably for woollens machinery, dkc. The quality of the oil, however, will speak for itself, to all who may try it, more clearly than our praise. Independent of the oil, the cake is the ve ry best of food for stock. For the present, we shall say no more on this head. The com| any, we learn, have gone to great ex pense amt labor to carry this important and new branch of business into proper effect. For the carrying on the business, the firm has purchased an excellent steam boat; and con- j uected with '.he mill and boat, they have about sixty negroes. The planters, we rejoice to hear, have offered every facility in enabling j the establishment to procure seed cheap and easily. The planters on the river have pro mised to the proprietors of the mill to save all their s«ed of this year, and for which the very best understanding exists between the firm and the planters, about freight, passages, oil, <Szc. This is as it should be ;—cntcr prizing citizens should be encouraged ; tliosc who picject, and those who undertake to put in operation useful works of any kind should be dealt with liberally. We learn, further, that Samuel A. Plum mer, Esq. has made arrangements to put up a similar establishment for Florence, also in Mobile, Alabama, to (lie one we have describ ed. Most heartily we wish him success, equal to that which he experiences here, ami that the same liberality will be extended to him by our fellow citizens of Alabama. A girl forced by her parents into disagree able match with an old man whom she detest ed, when the clergyman came to that part of the service where the bride is asked if she consents to take the bridegroom for her hus band, said, with great simplicity, “Oh dear no, Fur; but you an- the first p> rson who liasa.kcd VARIETY. From the Philadelphia U. S. Gazette. JACOB’S FIRST OFFENCE. Having occasion one day last summer to look into Judge King’s Court,to find a lawyer who, we learned, had like ourselves, made at that , moment his first appearance in that place for several years, we found the court occupied ; with sentencing eertain criminals, against , whom the jury of peers had pronounced the j verdict of guilty. One after another his hon -lor despatched the motely group of black, j white and gray, who were congregated in the prisoner’s box; some were to serve the public for two years, and others for a rew months, accordingtotheleg.il distinction of their va | riotis misdoings ; and cacti heard in silence his sentence, and looked all submission, as j if he felt that if all was known, the punish l inent would have been doubled. This si lence, we have remarked, is the attribute of of the prisoner’s box. The bold ami reck less are silent because they would brave all consequences ; the timid speak not because they are timid. When the whole array of culprits in the box had been disposed of, wc looked for a movement of the people towards the door, but instead of that, attention was directed to an individual, sitting on a bench at the right of the prisoner’s box. Changing our position, we had a full view of him, and we will now attempt a sketch of his person. The mail was about 75 years of age, ami bore those marks upon his visage which de noted that labor and exposure had aided Imn in his work. As he sat, Ins body leaned for waid lo an angle of about forty-five degrees, his right hand was resting on a staff, and in his left, but lying on the bench, was a bag. His dress was of the inu-t ordinary kind, his beard had not that length which adds dignity to age, nor was was it sufficiently short to de note any recent attention to personal com forts; a few stray white hairs were hanging dounfroinundcracoar.se cap, with which Ins head was covered. Recent confinement had given more than a common paleness to his visage, ami unusual dimness to his eye. “Jacob,” said the Judge, in which feeling for the age and wants of the prisoner had ev idcnlly obtained the mastery over the stern ness of justice—“Jacob,you have been found guilty of stealing a quantity of poultry.” Jacob turned Ins dim eve towards the Judge, and slowly shook his head, while his lingers played nervously upon his bag and cane. “The jury lias pronounced you guilty,” a gain said the judge,in a tone which conveyed a doubt whether the poor old man under stood the nature of his situation. “1 heard them,” said Jacob: “though I nev er intended to steal from any in .ri, whatever my wants may have been, and they have been many ami pressing. I never intended to take what was not my own. 1 have lived 75yearsin the same neighborhood, and and ” Jacob had evidently lost the thread of his remarks, he looked about as if to catch some hint by which to enable him to proceed, but be was unsuccessful; be shook his head again, and cast his eyes upon the floor. “The court,” said the Judge, in a tone of kindness, “have considered the circumstance of your case, and pronounce the following sentence—” “Sentence—sentence,” said Jacob rapidly, as lie again gazed on the judge ; “sentence— I have iabored for a family, have fought for the country, 1 have paid taxes lor the state, and I aui now to be sentenced. Who is lie thatcan say that Jacob ever wronged j him in 75 years? 1 appeal,” continued he, t in a low trembling voice, “1 appeal to Freder ick, and William who were bovs and men with me, whether I have been charged I with a crime—let them speak for me.” “They arc noth dead ,” said the officer. ‘Dead’” said the old man. “Yes.” “So they arc—t had forgotten—they have been dead these ten years. But n« man, dead or alive, ever heard uic accused of wrong doing'till this charge was made—and what had Ito do with the fowls ? I could have lived without them—l need not steal them. Steal ! 1 did not steal them.” Again Jacob seetned to forget his subject ; lie talked on incoherently, until be seemed weary, when tbc Judge again prepared to pro nounce the sentence. “1 would call some of my relations,” said Jacob, “but that 1 now remember that they are dead also—thev arc all dead.” Wheu he was again silent,the Judge said to the officer; “take the old mail to prison, and let him wait there thirty days,(the short est time allowed by law for Ids oflence) and let there be cudotsed on the committal, an order for him to be admitted to the Alms House as scon as the 30 days arc passed. Jacob rose when the officer approached him, hut it was evident that lie had paid but little attention to the sentence. He took up bis bag, and as lie was movingoutof thecourt- I room, he muttered, “sentence —I did not i steal.” He raised his eyes to the crowd that were gazing upon him—a slight hectic flush : passed over his visage—lie seperated, “hut I thev are all dead," and then began his I journey to the prison. j For more than 20 years, it seems that Ja ,001) had mingled with society, man and boy, he had been known as lioncst;notempation had caused him to swerve from the track of duty, and he had grown up and grown old, with none to gainsay his ciedit. Childhood,s sunny years, the long eternity of hovhood, ; youth’s gay sallies, and man’s sober occupa . lions, had all come and gone, and Jacob had passed through all unscathed bv serious cen sure, unmarked by premediated guilt—ami on the very threshold of Ins coffin, slipping as it were into his grave, with almost four score years upon hnn, ill an unguarded hour, he made shipwieck of Ins whole voyage, and, in sight of port, sunk into infamy. \Vc all, it is believed, hedge about our children with constant precept and whole some examples, and wc should make honesty not a policy, not a calculation, but a first • movement, the instinetire feeling and prompt [ing of the mind; and this must coins from oare— oonrtnuad waWiiiigs. Thai jew of this lusture may pass in safety, temptations may assail in vain, and we may look back on half a century of unsullied life, and thank God that we arc not as other men ; hut when the pride of a good standing fails us, when •uroutward relations are less fair, when the strong incentives to good from various con nexions cease, all must then depend upon an infixed, a safe and a sure principle of right. Wc are not always safe : even the “ atten dant spirit” of good Which each of us hath to to watch over and guard us, seems sometimes to have closed the eye, or to have lifted it to wards a higher power—it is noten us, and we fail- LOVE STORIES. I The world is full cf then. The press : breatbesconstantly in their birth, and hreatiis uiireuiiUcd sighs of “love,still love,” while! those pretty little cupids called printer’s de vils, bear them forth upon every breeze.— j The swarms of novels, iiiigazincs, journals, periodicals, and newspapers, arc so plastered : with tiiis delicious honey that you cannot j toucli a single leaf without soiling your fin-1 gers. Every page, every column is crowded ! with melting words, burning kisses and an gellic forms. ’Tis dangerous, absolutely dan gerous to read them—the heart is m jeopar dy—it must dissolve beneath their influence —human nature cannot stand it. Oh vc! whom men call our forefathers ; ye who “ went a courting” by stealth and made love in silence—could your blessed spirits descend among us—would they giieve over our baek slidings from their examples, or would they exalt their voices and exclaim, “ the milleui um of love is come, embrace all ye children of earth ?” But to be serious. Is it not mystery, that in a day of light and extended intelligence like the present, people of education and j common sense should take delight in such things? What arc these love stoiies which people arc so fond of writing, printing, and applauding ; and which are read with avidi ty by the young and the old ? What do they contain? Truth—instruction—inoral influ ence? Alas! neither. They contain noth ing but bwe, and such love, ’tis enough to make a dog sick. Reader, if you are possessed of a propor tionate share of this world’s credulity, I pity you. What monstrous lies you must have swallowed—eh ? There is a spirit of untruth abroad. It is pervering every taste ; it is engendering er rors in every class of society. It whispers to the little maiden, who sits patting the car pet with her delicate foot, scarcely knowing whether she has a heart or gizzard, and melt ing at her own sighs—talcs of fictitious love as foolish as they are false. To the eagei and blushing boy it tells of female perfections lie will never meet, of angels ho may never behold ; and of adoration he shall never feel. In the parent’s iningitiatipii it creates a beauideal, which will make him loathe the child entitled to his affection, however it may inherit the feelings of human nature, and in the bosom of that child beget contempt for the worldly miudedness of that parent it should love and honor. To all it breathes desires which are unnatural, and raises hopes which cannot be realised. And is it to keep alii l: this deleterious spirit that time is sacri ficed, talent prostituted, and paper squander ed by the thousands. Oh ! is it no' to be la mented, that tho-e gifted with what might be made to benefit their fellow creatures, should thus employ themselves ? Oh ! that the po et and the painter, tiic discerning and the en lightened, would condescend to look upon the things around them; view nature and life as they are, be content with the one as God lias made it, and the other ns they find it. H'liat myriads of bright eves and sensitive hearts have wept over the misfortunes of a Rosilind, or the sorrows of a Writer, which were never) felt! and grieved at the endless perplexities of a Mortimer, and suffered in the hard trials of an Amanda, that had never lived ! Nor is this all. These love managers raise up whimsical notions of felicity which can never lie attained ; cause us to be dissatisfied with life as it is; and keeps us perpetually longing for a state of being incompatible with our present situation, liowover fortunate it may be. They make folks act and think, and speak anil feei as they do not, and as na ture never intended they should They make tenderness of heart and perfection oi' char acter the universal attributes of person; and moral depravity and baseness, the everlasting attendants of an uglv face and deformed fi gure; This is not fair to say the least of it -1 beg that I may lie understood. lam no*, one of those crabbed, tyrannical beings who imagine all love to be a phantasy, all women aclieat. 1 believe there are many liigh-soul ed, pure hearted women, who are not unwor thy of all the affection and tenderness a man can bestow on them- And I believe there is love, in this world, which time cannot con-, quer or fate unbend. But such love is uot written. Nor is it to be found where writers seek it. it decs not dwell in drawing rooms and bandboxes; nor, in the bosom of a fourteen years old miss, or i unbearded boy. It basks not exclusively in the sunshine of wealth, beneath the figtrec of luxury ; nori's it always enveloped in the ! form of beauty. But rather seek it on the bleak hillsides and secluded caverns of the ■ world, where the winds of adversity blow, or the serperts of persecution or contume ly hiss. Those who are familiar with the customrry speech of “ His Britanic Majesty" on prorogu- | ing the Parliament, may be amused with the fol lowingjeu d'esprit. OLYMPIC THEATRE. On Saturday evening Madame Vestria proro gued her house in person, and the following is the speech delivered on the occason : “My lords, ladies, and gentlemen,—l have come lo meet you for the purpose of proroguing this house. “1 have such well grounded confidence in the continuance of the steady attention you have gi ven to its business, that the most pressing neces sity alone could induoe me to resort to so ex treme a measure. i “ 1 wi, l ßt<l,e to you ill a few words, w hat that necru ltv i „ “ My saaeon u ended, And I oan’f help myself "Gentlemen of the pit and galleries,—l thank you for the cheerfulness with which yon have furnished the supplies V atid I have the highest satisfaction in informing yon that they have not only been adequate to our current expenses, but that a surplus remains. “This surplus I have directed to be funded, and it will remain applicable to the futureexigen cies of my management. “My lords ladies and gentlemen,—ln looking beck epon the sason which we are about to close’, I find many circumstances for our mutual congra tulation. “ If it be a blessing to have preserved domes tic peace what must it be to have preserved so many domestic pieces as we have ? “ Our crop has been abundant almost beyond precedent, and the harvest lias been well housed. “Order has been maintained, while orders have been excluded. “ m reverting with pride to the successful re sults ot native exertions, 1 am not unmindful of the assistance we have occasionally received from our firm allies; the French authors. “ I am happy to tell you that 1 continue to re ceive assurances of the mosl friendly description, not only from them but from all othor foreign powers. “ The freedom of the press has been guaran teed, and the consequence has oeeu its cordial support upon all critical occasions. “ During the approaching recess my most anx ieus endeavors will be directed to providing for your future comfort and amusements. “ Should the seats prove rotten, I will reform the whole house.” The delightful authoress of the “Charac teristics of Women,” lias appropriately said that no woman can devote herself exclusive ly to the society of men without losing some of the best characteristics of her sex. This is true. The conversation of Gallantry—the unceasing language of adulation—implied always, if not expressed—gives insensibly a taint to her mind ; it intoxicates, which is to pervert. The habit of tete-atetes, the habit of being always the sole or principal object of attention, of mingling in nu con versation which is personal, narrows the dis position, weakens the mind and renders it incapable ot rising to general views or prin ciples ; while it so excites the senses and the imagination that every tiling else becomes, in comparison stale, flat, and unprofitable.—The life of a coquette is very like that of a drun kard, or an opium eater, and its end is the same—the utter extinction of intellect, of cheerfulness, generosity, and self-respect. Newark Daily Adv. Wedding, Wine, and Water. —The Cen tincl of Friday, in publishing the nuptials of Mr. Reuben Hunting, and Miss Sarah Lam prey, which took place on Thursday evening, remarks : “Pure water, such as graced the nuptials of the first happy pair in Eden’s bliss lul bowers, was used oil this occasion.” This is what wc should term being temperate “above what is written.” it did not proba bly occur to the happy group, that our Sa viour exerted his supernatural power at a wedding inCanan of Galilee to turn water in to wine, and thus “make glad” the hearts of all present— Host. Ev. Gas. Signal Grx.—lt is very mournful any where, and at any time, to listen to sounds which attest the distress and agony of our fel low creatures: it is so amidst the dying on the field of battle, or the deck of a ship, as I know from experience, for I have seen both, hut far more terrific and heart-appaling is the sound of a signal cannon, heard at sea in the pauses of a midnight tempest. 1 cannot tell you what a shuddering it creates in your whc’. • frame, as it comes booming through the dark ness. I can have no conception of any thing to equal it for solemn and awful majesty. The first clod thrown upon the cofliu of an aged man, who died with the prospect of a happy rising, sends a thrill ol awe through the soul; and the notes of a muffled drum mourning for a patriot warrior, and the tolling of a distant bell at midnight, for instance a Convent hell among the mountains of Spain and Italy, nave much sublimity in them; but they are nothing compared to the sound which travels from the deep thirsted cannon, to an nounce tlie death and peril of the mariner.

The ood Family. — in the region of king William the third, there lived in Empwich, in Suffolk a family which from the number of peculiarities belonging to it was distinguished by tile name ofthe odd family.—Every event remarkably good or bad happened to this fam ily in an odd year, or an odd day of the month, and every one of them had something odd on his or her person, manners or behaviour. The letters of Jhe Christian names of ail the members contained an odd number of letters. The wife’s name was Rehab, and the husband's Peter, the had but one leg, and the wife but one arm, they had seven children, all boys, there names were, Solomon, Roger, James, Jonas, David, Matthew, and Ezekiel. Solomon was born blind of his left eve, Ro ger lost bis right eye by accident, James bad bis left car pulled off by a boy in a fight, Jo nas had a stump foot, David was hunchback ed, all these except David were remarkably short, and Ezekiel was six feet two inches ! high. At the age of nineteen, the stump j footed Jonas and hunchbacked David got wives of fortune, but no girl would listen to the addresses of the others. The husband's hair was black as jet, the wife’s remarkably white, yet all the children had red hair.—The j husband had the peculiar misfortune of falliri" into a saw pit, where he starved to death in the year one thousand seven liuridn and and one, the wife refusing all manner of sustenance died in three days after; Ezekiel ami Matthew were drowned in crossing the Thames, in the year one thousand seven hundred and five.

Extracts of a letter front an Eastern .State. “ Every Jackson man is ‘ex officio’ a Democrat ! and every one who has opposed his election lias been limited down by the whole pack as an ‘old Federalist!’ But the People will no longer bp ; deceived !

Have they not been treated superciliously 1 Have their acts been j respected ? Has public sentiment been consult ed 1 Or lias the will of one man, or rather the j will of some half dozen, been alone the rule of action ?” “ If, after the Treasury building has been Lurn -1 ed, [bad omen!] the country shall be exposed to i a greater loss, by removing the government depo | sites from the United Slates Bank, where a cent j has never been lost, to the local Banks, where ; near a million and a half of dollars has already been lost, and especially after the strong expres-siou of the opinion of both Hous -1 es of Congress against it, those who achieve this outrage on public opinion may indeed obtain an | eminence, but it may be a bad one ! For not , withstanding the Executive has claimed to be ! “independent, both of Congress and the Supreme j Court,’ some little remnants of power remain in both—and public agents will still be held roMpon -1 sible for their acts.” “The Post Office Department, too, requires Gen. Jackson’s ‘ searching operation.’ Here, in my opinion, have been the greatest abuses—- which 1 trust will be exposed in due time.” 1 Popular Government. —The people of Mis sis: qipi, in the new Constitution which they ! fiuve formed, have recognized the principle j that all officers should be elected by the 1 people. And they are now making one of ; the fullest experiments ol popular govern ment and universal suffrage, that has perhaps ever been made in any country. They leave | nothing to be done by their agents, in the way ot tilling offices. In addition to the J members ofthe Federal and State Legislature, I the Governor, Secretary of State, Auditor of I Public Accounts, Treasurer, Judges of the | Court of Appeals, Circuit anil Probate,Slier-1 ills, Surveyors, Assessors, Collectors, Ran-J gers, Boards ot Police, and Coroners, are all elected by the people. Many apprehensions are expressed, by persons both in and out of that State, that this system will not be found to bean advantageous one in practice. The intelligent editor of the Nashville Ban ner objects to it on the ground that it impo ses unnecessary responsibility and Double on the people. But who ought to bear this res ponsibility hut the people? Government is,or ought to he, instituted for their benefit: why ! should they expect to lie relieved from the | trouble of their own concerns? If they find their system cumbrous and umvieldv, if they have too much government, let. them sim plify and abridge it. We are not such devo ted democrats us to believe that the people can do no wrong; but we believe that the government of the country is their business, and that they have a right to make a bed in which they must of necessity lie. It may J be said that this popular system opens too wide a field for demagogues, who make it their especial business to humbug the peo-, pie ; and thereby promote their own inter-1 cst. It is to he hoped, however, that the 1 people, by being so frequently called on to exercise the right of suffrage, will learn lo ■ distinguish between merit and nieie preten-1 sions ; between patriotism and love of office. A people must practice self-government to be j tit for it. It you would make an individual! fit for nothing, give him nothing to do ' Will not the same maxim held with a com* I rnunity ? The intrigues of flic corrupt, the designing, and the sycophantic, must be I guarded against under any system of govern ment. “The price of liberty is eternal vig ilance.’ The corrupt intriguer, although I always dangerous in every community, will; perhaps find it more difficult to impose upon j the people at large, than to gain to his inter-1 est a single individual, or a few individu-j als, who may have the appointing power, j We trust therefore, that the Mississippi system will work well; and we wish that ] i their experiment may met t with complete | u« cess.— Alabama fit.
