Bates called and bade her an affectionate adieu, and she was soon on her way hume. The evening of the following day brought her to the arms of her fond parents and man? youthful friends, who received her with a joyous welcome:; 1 was one of that happy circle; we had gjrown up together, fiom our earliest infancy; our parants were but next door neighbors, and the tie of our infantile years, seemed as that of brother and sister; again I pres sed that glowing cheek, now blooming in the ripening graces of youth and suttused with the burning blush of female delica cy; 1 caught the pensive eye —I saw the starting tear, but then, having no know ledge of the circumstances here detailed, I could not penetrate the cause. Her fond parents supposing it the effect of leaving so many kind school-mates with whom sin had associated for several years, made no enquiries, expecting soon to see her re cover her accustomed cheerfulness and vivacity. Soon after Juliet returned home, a young gentleman from a distant vi llage. who was visiting a friend at F hap pened to see ami was introduced to Ju liet. in the family where he visited; h saw her then but a moment, hut was im mediately struck with her beauty and modest demeanor. After she was gone he eagerly enquired who she was and tin circumstances of her family and connex ions. He was so much pleased with tin result of his enquiries, as to prolong his visit, and determined, if possible, to make her his wife. Through the assistance of his friend, he wa* introduced into the family of Mi Lturens. He was of the legal professioi ami his name was not unknown to them being a citiz°n of the same county, an residing about twenty miles distant. Hi profession, usually honorable, was a guar antee for his fair character, and he so> r saw his attentions to miss Laurens was ri> displeasing to her parents. She receive him with modest politeness, but carefull though firmly repulsed every attempt t pav her an unusual or marked attention Attributing this to that modest reser\ which belongs to the female character, h soon took his leave, determining, withii a few days, to m ke hei another visit. About two weeks afterwards, Mr. Doug lass, (for that was the young gentleman name,) called on his second visit to Jo liet, ami having formally asked the leav* of her parents to visit her, readdv obtain ed their consent. Not so with Juliet—a soon as he made known to her the objei of his visit and requested her to allow him an opportunity of paying his addresses until time and h devoted attention would allow her to judge the sincerity of In heart and devotedness of his atachmen’ she frankly assured him, she could not yield him such an opportunity—that u would be criminal to delude him with anticipations which he could nev* r rea lise, and beg’d he would never again men tion such a subject to her. Douglass was astonished with this pr ompt and signified dismissal, the cause of which, he could not divine; he saw no re ason to suppose it arose from a prior attaohmenS her being yet so young,and being but lately return ed from school, precluded such a proba bility. Thinking, however, that time and the favoiv.ble impres-.iou of her parents towards him might produce a c hange pro pitious to his wishes, he left her, intend ing to renew his visit at an earlv period. EUGENIO. (To be concluded in the next number.) From the Macon Telegraph. An esteemed correspondent in Tal bot county, has communicated to us the following melancholy occurence, which we prefer giving to our readers in his own language • Talbot County , 23c? July, 1828. Dear-Sir; While engaged in opening a new road yesterday in this neighborhood, we were passed by two stout footman (having a small dog and a rifle gun,) whom I afterwards ascertained were fa ther and son, of the name of Rodgers, who lived near Barnes’s Store in Pike county and by prfession were well diggers. Shortly aftor passing us, there came up a thunder cloud, and the travellers took shelter undar the trunk of a pine tree near the road. The tree was struck by lightning, which fired off the gun, knock ed down the travellers and killed the dog. The old man rose and helped up his son after receiving the then fell and expired on the body of ‘.he dog. When we approached, we found young Rodgers seated with his back against the tree, and his lather a corpse before him; The survivor is considerably burnt by the lightning, but uo doubt will recover without much injury. We thought that the administration presses had exhausted the vocabulary of abuse notwithstanding their fertili ty of invention, until we met with the following arti- le. To what lengths will desperation lead! C APPING THE CLI M AX. Extract of a letter from a gen.! man in Cincinnati, to the Editor of the People’s Press, dated July 18, 1828. “One of the basest and nost mali cious articles, y-l fabricated by the Administration tribe, is now said to be in the oflice of Mr. Hammond. It purports to be a correct account of Gen.
