the hundreds who have tested the virtues of the White

dence and favor unparalled in the history of any other wa-
lertng place so recently offered to the public patronage.—
The proprietor has been encouraged to make considerable

ol Gainesville, so that no inducement shall be wanting to se
cure the patronage of the public.
To the at ranger, who has never tested the virtues of tbe
crystal fountains and balmy atmosphere of this pleasant
region, it is only necessary to say that these Springs are
located in the midst of the moat delightful and healthy re-
gum of our State, a few miles north of the Pine Mountain
and only nine miles southeast of Greenville,- through which
place a daily ium of stages, connecting with the principal
lines or the Union, is now in operation.

Indian Springs, Boils 60.
THE Subscriber,Proprietorcf the Iudian Spring Hotel
for the last two years, would most respectfully inform his
frienus and patrons of this Stale, of South Carolini, Ala
bauia and its vicinities, that he has at a great expense,
erected a splendid HOTEL under the above name,
for the ample accommodation of visitors during Uio ap
proaching season.
Tina House will be opened on the 20th day of May next.
The McIntosh House is in depth *50 feet by 43 wid
coutiinS'bctween seventy and eighty large nud airy rooms
together* with three spacious Drawing Room* and 6 splen
did Ball Room; large and wide Piaxxaa extending around
the Hotel—making it what has so long been desired at this
Spring—one of the largest and most commodious Hotels
ever erected at any watering place in the Southern country,
During the last two seasons there baa been much com,
plaint for want of more accommodations for tbe hundred!
that daily flock to this well known and justly celebrated
watering place.
This season there shall be no reason of complaint for
want of aernnunodations, or indeed any thing connected
with ibis establishment.
Tbe Mclntuslt House will accommodate over four hun
dred personal
Neither pains or expense have been spared in furnishing
an,l fitting up this House so as to render it truly a house
for all who may favor it with their patronage. The furni
ture ia all new and of the roost sterling kind, having been
made up to orjer for this establishment.
The location of the McIntosh House ia on the brow o
the McIntosh Hill, overlooking the Spring, for many years
the residence of the celebrated Col. McIntosh of tbe Creek
oatjoo, so well known an! associated in tbe Indian history
of our country.
The Subscriber, therefore, flatters himself that in order,
comfort, and ayatemalic arrangement, the McIntosh House
shall not be surpassed; and hopes from hia continued ex
ertions to please, he may secure a share nf the public pat
ronage. BRYAN W. COLLIER.

POET 31 Y.
THE PRAYER OF EARTHLY LOVE'
— Unseen she prayed,
With all the still, small whispers of the night,
And with the searching glances of the stats.
And with her God alone ! She lifted up
Her sad, sweet voice, while ttembling o’er her head
The dark leaves thrilled with prayer—the tearful prayer
Of woman’s quenchless yet repentant love :
Father of spirits, bear!
Look on the inmost soul, to thee revealed;
Look on the fountain of the burning tear,
Before tby sight in solitnde unsealed.
Hear, Fatber, bear and aid !
If I have loved too well, if I have shed.
In my vain fondness o’er a mortal head,
Gifts on thy shrine, my Goci, more fitly laid;
If I have sought to live
But in one light, and made a mortal eye
The lonely star of my idolatry—
Thou, that art love, oh, pity and forgive !
Chastened and schooled at last,
No more my straggling spirit barns,
But fixed on thee from that vain worship turns !
j Wh*thave I saidt the deep dream i* not pact.
Yet bear! If still I love.
Oh 1 still too fondly—if, for ever seen,*
An earthly image come* my soul between.
And thy calm glory, Father, tbroned above ;
If still a voice is noar,
(Even while I strive these wanderings to control,)
An earthly voice, disquieting my soul,
With a deep 1 music too intensely dear;
O, Father, draw to tlieo
My lost affections back 1—the dreaming eyes
Clear from the mist—sustain the heart that dies;
Give the worn soul once more its pinions free!
I mutt love on, O God!
This bosom ! must let thy breath
Touch and make pure the flame that knows not death
Beating it up to Heaven, Love's own abode!
From the New Orleans Tropie.
CITY §P IATAMOROS, ITS CATHEDRAL
Cleverly in Matamoros, the first impression
you receive ia the desolate one created by the
prison looks of all the housas. They have a
semi-moorish appearance, and you cannot di
vest vourself of the idea that a city thus buift,
must’be inhabited by people of jealous dispo
sitions, subject to civil war, and of "unsocial
habits. As you progrcs» along you see peep
ing through grated windows, pairs of dark
eyes that flash strangely with fear and curiosi
ty, little children retreat before you with that
gait peculiarly to the young of timid animals,
that flee from instinct, be/bre they do it from
reason. The double door opened at an angle
to admit the air, gives glimpses of deep bru
nettes, throwing remarkably luxurieut and
dark tresses over their beads, previqps to arran
ging them for the evening listlessness. Men
sit sullenly abont in their fantastic dresses, half
of them looking as if they had stolen out of a
stock company of a theatre, while engaged in
playing a “Brigand piece’” There is a flaunt-
ing, stilletto—you—in—the—dark look, about
the whole of thorn. As you wander on you
find the city remarkably well laid out, and al
though giving evidences of having seen better
days, still it is far from being destitute of at
tractive buildings. Once fairly in the palza
Hidalgo, the principal square of the city,
you can rest yourself under the shade of some
stunted china trees, and then commence exam
ining at your leisure.
You will at once be attracted by tbe unfinish
ed Cathebrai that is so managed that tho hous
es on its wings, appear to be part of the Cath
edral itself, giving to the mass a very impos
ing appearance; it bounds one entire side of
the plaza. The architect commenced with
mots excellent intentions, and but for want of
funds, would have made a splendid building.
Two fine unfinished towers eommand the sides
of the Cathedral, upon one of which is rude
ly laid a piece of timber from which are sus
pended a couple of btlls. The large gothic
door in the centre, would have exposed the
interior with great effect, but alas, some mis
fortune overwhelmed its progress, and left the
bare walls, to provoke the imagination into
contemplating-the reason*, why a work so well
begun, Was not completed.
In front seated in the angles formed by the
bases of the pallnts, or upon the bases them
selves, are fifty oV more poor miserable crea
tures, who seem in their poverty, to have no
thing in abundance but sunshine, and that they
aro determined to enjoy. Many are -disgust
ingly disfigured by slow cankerous disease*,
that appear to render their victims hideous,
and yet will not kill. Some are slightly wound
ed soldiers who have crawled out of the hospi-
tals for fresh air. Few well dressed persons
linger in their vicinity, but pass decorously o'ti
and disappear in a narrow alley way on the
right Of iho Cathedral, where we will enter.—
listviog-done so you soon come to a small room
no doubt intended originally for the aacristry
but now us.ed as a cliappel. Tho walls are
plains there is nn wealth about the alter to tempt
*acreligioua hands. The adornments on the
contrary arc of little value, and of a kind in
no wtty harmonious wji.h the objects for which
they are appropriated. The priest is «t line
altar in the act nf celebrating mass, the wor
shipping congregation is impressing, and tempts
the heart to join in the solemn service.
Bcfotc you are kneeling Some twenty Mex
can women, many of them quite handsome,
'Htt calculated to excite curiosity. They kneel
gracefully and accidently as possible expose a
fine foot, tastefully set o’ff with a small slipper.
There are but two Mexican men in the house,
shame upon the sex, but there are men there
beside, noble true hearted men, that form a
curious sight, all the circumstances considered.
Some twenty United States troops, in their
uniforms, arc on their knees at prayer, among
the most devotional in the ltousa. It was a
sight to see those thus engaged who but a few
days before were surrounded by the terrors of
the Jbattle field, busy, prominently busy, in
the \vork of death. Such is one of the Cathe
drals ofMatamoros, and the principal building
in the city.
poshing off, while the padre was making for the
craft, up to his knees in mud. ♦'ShovehcroH!”
shouted the frightened Canales, as some of the
American mounted men appeared in sight.—
“One moment for the love of God!” ejaculated
the priest, with outstretched arms. “T.c* go
that rope, there!” again shouted Canales “I
shall sink,” responded tho priest, in doleful ac
cents, and still floundering onwards towards
the canoe, “He will drown, General,” said
one of the oarsmen, struck aghast at the idea of
seeing a holy man thus perish, “Let hint
drown, then, don’t you see the cursed Ameri
cans are close upon mi MjftW V T shouted Cana
les, as lie himself cut me rope and shoved thcr
boat into the stream; Father Leary was-
drowned, sure enough.
“A FLOWER IN THE DESERT.”
A Few Words for Peace.—Here is a
beautiful incident related by an officer at Mat-
nmoras, in a letter to a friend in Providence^
which reminds us that—
In the desert there is still a fountain.
In the wide waste there still is a tree.
And a bird in the solitude singing f
Our Army were marching in Matamonts, amt
the officer writes—
There was a little incident occurred which
contrasted so forcibly with what was going
on around me, that I could not hut be struck
. by it.
Under a tree just on tho river batik, and at
the point where (Tie hustle and throng of the
passago was greatest,- a family of Mexicans had
taken shelter, who had re-crossed to our side
the day before, and had not had time to movo
to their homes. There were some six or eight
children of various ages; one of these-a beauti
ful black-eyed graceful little Creature of five or'
six years, I saw her, while tumult and turmoil
of all description rang around, while arms
were flashing, cannon rolling, men hurrying to
and fro, horses dashing at wild speed, the air
filled with shouts and oatlis, and all was as if
quiet and peace were banished from the earth,
half sitting, half lying upon a grassy knoll, her
head resting upon a white pet dove, and one
little arm thrown around the bird as if to pro-’
. tect ft from all harm.—Chas. Transcript.
THE QUESTION SETTLED.
A practical illustration of one of Mr. Cal-’
boun’s great principles was beautifully develop-
ed yesterday morning, at thb corner of Third
and Walnut streets, in a short, yet we are
happy to say, not sanguinary conflict between
a woodcart and a furniture Wagon, the former
driven by one of the Hon. Mr. Giddings’ con
stituents, a colored ‘gemmanj* the other by a
genuine patlandcr;
Immediately upon the collision of tho two
vehicles, he of Erin incontinently splintered
the tail-board over the head of his grinning foe,-
which quickly aroused that gentleman from his
‘masterly inactivity,’ and preparations were
made for a regular set-to; A gfentleman in
terfered, when the following dialhgue occurred:
‘Now you see dat de laW on my side, and I
go right into your witals—you struck fust; you
know you did, for darvou old tail-board crack
ed on my coconut;*.
‘Stop a moment,’ says a "bystander, ‘before'
you go ahead, this is tho law. ‘Hostilities ex-
tst but no war.’ To be sure, he has cracked
you over the cranium* but lhat is nothing but
a mere act of hostility Whitjh he of the tail-board
may disavow. You cannot strike until von
have formally declared war.' ‘Is dat de law,*
said darkie, slowly getting into his cart, ‘den
look ha next time i gobs right into de war con-
tenporaniously wid de horsetililies.’—Pennsyl
vanian.
M,a- Kendall, nf tho Picayune, writing
from Matamoras, relates the follpwing:
A Mexican.captain.of artillery, a prisoner in
the camp tells a [good ■‘■lory of,Candles and his
great haste to "ct upon the Mexican side of.tlte
Rio Grande after the last great battle. He had
reached the stream, had thrown himself into a
boat, and was about pushing oft', when a burly
padre, one Father Leary as he was called, came
• rushing up to the bank and prayed lustily for
a passage over. The boatman hesiteted about
tJxNATCRAL Growth of Hair.—A French
physian, OHivier, writing recalltly, narrates the
case of a lady, remarkable for tbefairness of her
skin, and peauty of her deep black hair, who
was the subject of fever; and while recovering,'
perceiAed tbe whole surface of her body to be in
a state termed “goose skin.*’ In a few day,
the little elevations lookeddark at the summit,
ard were surmounted each by a Short black hairs
which gnew very rapidly; so that, at the end of
a month, every part of the body, with the except
tjon of her face, the palms of her hands, and
the soles of her feet, was covered with a short
hairy c»at,of about an inch ih length.
CHANGING SIDES.
About two years nglr, the Mexican govern
ment procured six beautiful flat and sharp schoo
ners to be built here; of a little more than a hun
dred tons burthen. They were of Very light
draught, and so fitted for tho navigation of shoal
rivers and bays. They were all as precisely
ahke as so many peas. Three of them were
delivered to the Mexican government; but tho
other three have been lying for eighteen months
»t the ship yard, upon lltp hands of the mcr-
-chants here who were employed to contract for
them. Our government have just taken ihcni
from the merchants' hand*, and-they are all to
be ready for sea jn six days. Oar government
are also negotiating for two steamers which
were built for Mexico, but which, not being
paid for, have not been delivered. All ihe
mines of Mexico cannot make Mexico rich,
while the sand hank af Nantucket is overflow
ing with wealth.—N. Y. four, of Commcrc r.
