INTRODUCTION TO MR. COOPttK $ NEW WORK,
“THE MONTKINS,”
Note mi the press of Cairy, bn, S( Blanchard.
It is now improtuilile that some of those who
mud this book, mav feel u wish to know in what
manner l Iwcume possessed of the manuscript.
Such a desire is too just and natural to Im thwar
ted, and the l^le shall be told as briefly as possi
ble.
During the summer of 1828, while travelling
«mong those vallev*of Switzerland which li t Im-
tweon the two great ranges of liie Alps, and in
which both the Rhone and the Rhine take their
' rise, I had nassed from the sources of the latter to
those of the fbrmer river, and had reached that
basin in the mountains tnat is so celebrated for
containing the gl tcierofthe {hone, when chance
gave me one of those rare moments of sublimity
and solitude, which are the more precious in the
other hemisphere from their infrequency. On
overv side the view was bounded bv high and
ragged mountains, their peaks glittering near the
nan, while directly before me, and on a level with
the eve. lay that miraculous frozen sea, out of
whose drippings the Rhone starts a foaming riv
er, to glance away to 1 the distant Meditemnean.
For the first time, during a pilgrimage of years,
I felt alone with Nature in Europe. Alas! flu*
enjoyment, as all such enjoyments necessarily are
amid the throngs oCthe 01,1 World, was short and
treacherous. A party came round the angle nfa
rock, along the narrow bridge path, in single files;
two ladies on horseback, followed by as many
gentlemen on foot, and proceded by tlm usual
guide. It was hut a small courtsev to rise and
salute the dove-like eyes and blooming cheeks of
the former, as they passed. They were English,
and the gentlemen appeared to recognize me as
a countryman. One of the latter stopped, and
politely inquired if the passage of the Furca was
obstructed bv snow. He was told not. and in re
turn for the information, said that I would find the
Grimse! a little ticklish; “but.” he added, smiling,
‘ the ladies succeeded in crossing, and you will
scarcely hesitate.” I thought I might get over
u difficulty that bis fair companions had onnquer-
cd. Ho then told me dir Herbert Taylor was
made adjutant general, and wished me good
morning.
I sat reflecting on the character, hopes, pur
suits, and interest of mkn, for an hour, concluding
that tlie stranger was a soldier, who let some of
the ordinary workings of his thoughts overflow in
this brief and casual interview. To resume my
solitary journey, cross the Rhone, and toil the
way np the rugged side of the Gritnsel, consumed
two more hours, and glad was I to come in view
of the little chill-looking sheet of water on its sum
mit. which is called the Lake of the Dead. The
path was filled with snow, at a most critical point,
where, indeed, a misplacedfobt'O-p mightb»tm
the incautious to their destruction \ large nartv
cm the other side appeared fullv aware ofthe dif
ficulty. for it had hailed, and was in earnest dis
cussion with the guid", touching the practicability
©f passing. It was decided to attempt the enter-
prize. First came a female, of one of the
sweetest, sereuest countenances I had ever seen.
Che. too. was* '.nglish: and. though she trenbl <d
and blushed, and laughed at herself,she came on
with spirit, and would have reached mv side in
eafetv, had not an unlucky stone turned beneath
a foot that was much too pretty for those wild hills.
i sprang forward, and was so happy as to save her
from destruction. She felt the »t tent of the obli
gation. and expressed her thanks modestly but
with fervor. In a minute we were joined by her
husband, who ensued ray hand with warm feel
ing. or rather with the emotion one ought to feel
Who had witnessed the risk he had just run of
losing an angel. The lady seemed satisfied at
leaving ns together.
- “ You are an Englishmen ?” said the strau-
ger.
“ An American.”
« a„ American 1 This is singular. Will yon
pardon a question I You have more than saved
my life—you have probably saved by reason.
Will you pardon a question ? Can money serve
fou.
I smiled, and told him. odd as it might appear
to him, that, though an American, l was a gen
tlemen. He appeared embarassed, and his fine
fitce worked, until l began to pity him, for it was
evident he wished to show me, in some way, how
much he was my debtor, and yet he did not know
exactly what to propose.
“ We may meet again,” I said squeezing his
tjand.
“Will you receive my card!"
" Most willingly.”
IIeput“ Viscount Householder” into my hand,
end in return I gave him my humble appella
tion.
He looked from the card to me, and from me
to the card, and some agreeable idea appeared
to flash upon liis mind.
“ Shall yon visit Geneva this summer?” he
etfeed, earnestly.
•' Within a month.”
“ Your address—”
“ Hotel de I’Ecu.”
“ You shall hear from me. Adieu.”
We parted, He, his lovely wife, nail his guides
descending to the Rhone, while I pursued my
tvay to the Hospic of the Glimsel. Within the
month, I received a large packet at I’Ecu. It
rontaiued a valuable diamond ring, with a re
quest thatl would wear it,as a memorial of Lady
Householder, and a fairly written manuscript
The following short note explained the wishes
©f the writer:
“ Providence brought us together for more
purposes than were, at first, apparent. I have
Jong hesitated about publishing the accompany
ing uarative, for in England there is a disposition
vo cavil at extraordmary facts, but the distance of
America from my place of residence will com-
( letoly save me from ridicule. The world must
ave the truth, and I see no better means than
by resorting to your agency. All I ask is, that
you will have the hook fairly printed, and that
you will send one copy to my address, Househol
der Hall, Dorsetshire, England, and another to
Capt. Noah Poke, Stonlngton Connecticut, in
your own country. Aly Anna pruys for you, and
is ever your friend. Do not forget us.
“Yoursmost faithfully,
“HOUSEHOLDER.”
Ihave rigidly complied with this request; and
luvihg sent the two copies according to direction,
The rest of theedition is at the disposal of any one

BC RIVEN Cl I.f Bl'ATION.
A very large and respectable portion of the
people of Scriven county assembled at Jackson-
boro,’ on the 4tli inst. to celebrate the titli Anni
versary of American Independence. A liberty
pole was erected near the church, on the lull,
with the Star Spangled Buntu-r streaming from
it’s top, and oupoeito to it, and in front of Air.
Seaborn Goodall’s Hotel, was a beautiful arbor,
partly natural and partly artificial under which
the whole celebration took place. At PJ o’clock
the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions were
read by Col. Augustus Seaborn Jones who in
troduced them with very excellent, appropriate,
and eloquent remarks, at some length ; illustra
five of the early history and character of our fed
erative tflnoblic, the Constitution,Patrick Hen
ry, and his extraordinary character ami predic
tions, the Alien and Sedition Laws, the Virginia
and Kentucky Resolutions which succeeded
them. Mr. Jefferson, and the great, glorious,and
victorious struggle for liberty in ’IK ’99. ami
1300. It has seldom been our lot to listen to a
discourse more fuli of sound native truth, judi
cious argument, and excellent principle, or more
illustrative of the fact, that genuine truth,
high-hearted feeling, and ardent devution to lib-
herty.are the very life and souloftrue eloquence.
The Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions, too.
were read vvitn a degree of propriety, force, and
effect which we have seldom seen equalled on
any occasion; and it is needless to say that their
eloquent and imoressiee truths could nftt have
come with tiiorc fitness from the lips of any man
than those of their intelligent and patriotic Read
er—a' man whose whole life has been conspicu
ous for an ardent, devoted, intrepid, and disinter-
isted devotion to those principles, regardless of
all popular odium, or personal considerations,
and mingled with a modesty, urbanity, ami gen
tlemanly courtesy of manner, worthy of the high
est prai«, and which have not failed to command
tho respect and regard of his garment opponents.
There are few tnenin Georgia towhom our great
and glorious cause owes more—and certainly
none who have served it more zealously as disin
terestedly, or are more entitled to the confidence
respect and regard of all its friends.
The Oration,' replete with sound argument, ex
cellent principles, and impressive truths, was de
livered by Benj.Green, Eaq. a member ofthe
State Legislature, and leceived with warm testi
monials of approbation.
.Shortly afterward the company, composed of
some three or four hundred of the most respect
able and intelligent citizens of the eonuty, sa
down to a very -excellent and sumptuous dinner,
prepared by Seaborn Tindall, Esq., and arrang
ed with i degree of neatness and beauty, highly
creditable to his judgment, assiduity, and good
taste. Take it altogether—the cool airy situa
tion, the beauty and taste of the arbor, the strik
ing neatness and cleanliness of every thing, the
excellence of the cookery, and the great variety
of the edibles—we have seldom witnessed a hand
somer or more pleasing entertuium nt on any
occasion. Jacob Bryan, TLsq fresh lent ofthe
.Tam Rights Association, anil lor many years
Senator in the State Legislature, officiated as
fresident, assisted by Col. Jones, li. J. Black,
.,sq. M ij. Hardy Scarborot’ Col. Thos. Green,
Jolm R. Ketles, Esq. Col. Henry Beaufort, and
Cullen Williamson, Esq., as Vice Presidents ;
and altera suitable discussion oftbeothcr .ood
tuiugsof the table, numerous excellent, and pat
riotic regular and volant r toasts were drank,
.md received with tiie utmost harmony, and good
leeling Previous to seating for dinner, i.d-
w.ird J Black Esq. on the part ofthe Committee
ot Arrangements, very kindly and respectfully
invited tiie Union men present to partake ol the
dinner, and it is said that several of them have
since declared their conversion to the true faith,
and adhesion to the Stale Rights party.
Edward J. Black, Esq. late a citizen of Augus
ta, and an ardent, devoted, and efficient suppor
ter of ttte true faith, whom we are gratified to
perceive has secured the confidence and regard
of tue people of Scriven in an eminent degree,in
responding to a flattering sentiment, entlinsasti-
cully received oy the company, addressed it at
sasic length,ana with yreatabilitv and eloquence,
which called forth repeated bursts of warm-heart
ted applause. His exposure ot the danger of sup
porting White, and again Liking part in an exci
ting and corrupting scramble for the Presidency,
and lederal oitices, was particularly impressiv e,
and received, too, with particular approbation.
He declared the sincere regret with which he dif
fered from many respected friends, on this mat
ter; but said, that standing before the people as
he did, as a candidate tor their suffrages, he could
not consent to disguise his real sentiments, or
stoop to court their favor by any deieptive arts.
A. If. Pemberton of Augusta, also addressed the
company, in reply to a toast from it.
l'ake it altogether, we have never witnessed a
more respectable, creditable,and gratifying coun
ty celebrated on any occ ision—never ouq more
strongly characterized by true patriotism, enthu-
siastical zeal, and respectable deportment. Not
a single circumstance occuired to mar the Har
mony, Older, and line feeling of the occasion, or
wound the most fastidious delicacy ofthe very
numerous ladies present, who were delighted
spectators ofthe whole scene, from tiie elevated
adjoining piazza ofthe Hotel. Not a single in
dividual was in the slightest excited by the wine,
oraiiy angry feeling, and all parted with as much
harmony and order as they assembled, and which
we could not but consider in the highest degree
creditable to the company, to the couuty, and to
our great and glorious cause.
A detailed report of the Toasts, and proceed
ings generally, we understand will be made ouj
by the Committee of Arrangements, uud forwut-
ded for publication.

FOURTH OF JULY AT COLUMBUS.
The Anniversary of Freedom was celebrated
in tliis place, by the Stale Rights Purty, with
charatcristic spirit and good feeling. At 11 o’
clock in the morning the procession was formed,
in fryut of the City Hall, and marched under,
command of Col. Asa Bates, Marshal ofthe day
by the thundering music ofthe pealing Cannou,
to the Methodist Church The Rev. Samuel
K. Hodges uttered to the Throne of Grace a
prayer, replete with humility thankfulness, and
Christian zeal. Col Seuboru Jones, Esu. after
some eloquent and stirring remarks, read tne De
claration of Independence, and an Oration, well
adapted to the occasion and the circumstances,
was delivered by Thomas C. McKeen, Lsq. to a
crowded, well pleusedalld applauding audience.
Music at every interval, by Mrs. Reaves, upon
the Piano, assisted by a gentleman upon various
instruments; gave a zest to the occasion, and im
parted to the audience new feelings of patriot
ism. From the Church the procession marched
again to the the City Hall, and partook of an el
egant dinner, prepared by Bedell &, Walker.—

Eooh Out.—An abolition gentleman went into
Burke county, Georgia and hurrungued the ne
groes in favor of immediate emancipation An
overseer ofu plantation caught him, tied him up
to the spot, uud gave him fifty lashes and let him
go.
The above we find under the head ol “Odds
and Ends,”in the Now-York Spirit ol'the Times,
and think it quite probable, the thing happened,
just a« it is there set forth. These Georgians are
strange fellows, and would make no bones to take
up one of these intolerant incendiaries and de
cently phelbotoraize Ins cutaneous covering.
Burke county is not the only place, where such
a scoundrel would meet with that kind of sum
mary justice, which reacue-, the only feeling lie is
supposed to possess. A lien therefore these
misguided fanaticks come among us to light the
torch of insurrection, let them remember tile fate
oftheir lacerated fore-runner, und look well to
their own personal welfare. The renowned old
law-giver, ibe immortal Lynrh, enacted a statue
for the express benefit anil behool of such gen
try, and the way it will be practically enforced
hereabouts will be a small circumstance peyond
any thing that Tuppun and Garrison, or any of
their infamous crew ever thought of.—Columbus
Enquirer.
There is excellent sense in the following
Mourning.—In England and the li. States,
mourning is carried to excess. A traveller,from
the European continent, is surprised to sec so
many people dressed in black in both these couil
tries. I met, one day, a lady of niy acquaintance
m fiockway, a village on the sou shore, not far
fVoin New-York. She was in muutniug; she
told me Ilie raison of her sombre dress ; some
distant relation had died. "But" said (, “l saw
you in mourning hull a year ago: lor whom was
that f” “ vVe were then in mourning lor—Mary,
my dear, turning to her sister, "lor wlimn were
wain mourning for then'” You may easily
imagine that (lie effect of this naoiete upon the
whole circle was opposite to lugubrious. A pro
per regard for our departed friends, shown by
external signs, is, undoubtedly, becoming for a
civilized man, and ugrees with our feelings.—
But if mourning is carried to such an extent as
in England and the L uited Stales, it has mi more
meaning titan the going into mourning ol a court
ordered by the high chamberlain, for some prince
or princess of a distant dynasty, to which the
mouruets are no further related than by the use
ofthe word con on between the ruling heads.—
Besides, it causes a state of tilings which may
seriously interfere with the whol.ltfe of an indi
vidual. A female ie home to be married, uiar
tinge requires previous acquaintance, anil ns
tilings now stand aOquatutance cannot guuuial-
ly take place without social intercourse; mourn
ing. however, throws it young Isdyumt of society.
I have known families in which young ladies
continued to wear nmunuag for ■•onie ill taut
cousins, from their noveutletuh yeai m their
twenty first; u very serious atl'air win n ladies
reuse much earlier to he considered us dial iug on
the full tide of mart iagehleness than in other
parts ofthe world. Some avoid this inconve
nience by going to balls in * ' in-mourning.w-liioh
never fails to million wry unfavorable impass
ion. There is a meeker, ill such a contrast,
which shows ton plqinlv—1 mourn. Imt l grieve
not. I think the tiet man mu! French a re more

O i-ATH OF CH1l,F JUSTICE MARSHALL
l’he Philadelphia United Stales Gazette ol the
7 tii mst. contains the following melancholy intelli
gence—
“ vVe have this morning the painful duty to
discharge, of announcing the death of the ven
erable John Marshall, Chief Justice of the Su
preme Court of the United States. The patriot,
the statesmen, the jurist, file historian, the sage,
the friend uud biographer of the immoitnl rVa-li-
ington, died yesterday afternoon, at the boarding
house ol Mrs. Cmn; m vValuut stueet, where lie
had been confined to iiis bod tor several weeks.
“ No man now living command the respect
and possesses the confidence, that did Judge
Mar snail.—He was beloved by all. No political
dissentions reached him, though he concealed he
opinion ; he was
“ While in, above the world.”
“The loss which is sustained by the death op
Judge Marshall, is not thut of any division or par.
ty—his talents were the nation’s—his fame wa
Iters—his loss is hers—and though many who
claimed particular allinity from opinions or kin
died with the deceased, may have a privute gri.
the nation mourns the going out of almost tb
last star of that brilliant constellation which shea
so much lustre upon our country in the davs o
her mental greatness. Another occasion will
lie used to give a biograp ical sketch ofthe eiu.-
nent man whose death w ■ Us announced.”

Mer/wo.—The major pari of the Mexican
.States have declared (says the New Orleans Bee
ofthe 1st mst.) in favor of a central government
under Santo Anna. This general having sub
jugated the refuctory in the late insurrection, bus
resolved similarity to pacify Texas ; ami has a
formidable army wellequipt under Ids command
Texas must therefore submit to be a component
of the consolidated government of Mexico.
The American schooner Martha, cuptured by
lie Mexican gutter Montezuma, was sent from
I Galveston to Vera Cruz wliern she still l’omaintt
muler seizure. Vera Cm* Imd not assented to
the plan of the consolidated government on the
tit-th ult.

Marriage after Burial.—Two Parisian mer
chants, strongly united in (Viemlship. had each
one child ol diil, rent exes, who early contracted
a strong inclination fill - each other, winch wits
cherished bv the parents, and they were flattered
In’ 1 * * * ' > I it ion of being joined together for
life. Uufortnoate v, at the time they thought
themselves on die point of completing this long
wished tin-union, a man. far advanced in years,
& possessed of an immense fortune,east liis eyes
on the young lady. vV made honorable proposals;
her parent* culinot resist the temptation* oi'a son-
in-law in such affluent circumstances, andlbrced
her to comply. A* soon as the knot wa* tied,
she striutly enjoined liei former lover never to
sue her, and patiently submitted to her fate; hut
the anxiety et her mind piayed upon her body,
which threw her into a lingering disorder that
apparently carried her oil' and she was consigned
to her grave. As soon as this melancholy c vent
reached the lover liis alfiction was doubled.being
deprived of all hopes of Iter iv idoivhond. bin re
roll- ( ting that in her voiitli lie had been for some
time in a lethargy, bis Hopes revived, and li u re d
him to the pi ice ofher burial, where a good In il,e
procured the sexton’s permission to di fier uj ,
winch he performed, N removed lierto a place of
Safety .where bv proper methods, she revived them
most extinguished spark of life. Greai was her
surprise at fi tiding the state she had lx on in ; and
probably as great was her pleasure, at the mean*
by which she had been recalled from tiie grave.
As soon as she was stilficiently recovered, the
lover laid liis claims ; and his reasons, s ipported
by a powerful inclination on her side were too
strong for her to resist; but ns France wa- o
longer a place of safely for them, they agreed c
remove to ligland where they continued ten
years, when a strong inclination of revisiting
their native country seized them, which tlie\
thought they might safely gratify, and according
ly perform ’d their voyage. The lady was so
unfortunate as to be known by bernwn husband,
wiiom she met in a public walk, and all bei en
deavours todisguise herself were ineffectual.—
He laid lus Ciaim to her, before a courtol pislit
and the lover defended liis right, alleging, that
the husband by burying Her bad Ibrfeited bis till
and tliui he had acquired a just one, by freeing
her from the grave, and deliveiing her from tit
jaws of death. These reasons, whatever weight
they might have in a court where love presided
seemed to have little effect oil tiie grave sages ol
the law ; and the lady, with her lever, not think
ing it safe to wait tho determination ofthe court,
prudently retired out of tile kingdom.
