POETRY. THE DESTRUCTION OP SENNACH ERIB, BY LORD BYRON. The Assyrian came down like the wolf on the foM, And his cohorts were gleaming in purple and gold And the sheen of their spears was like stars on the sea, When the blue wares rolls nightly on deep Gali lee. Like the leaves of the forest when Summer is green, That host with their banners at sunset were seen: Like the leaves of the forest when Autumn hath * blown, That host on the morrow lay wither’d and strown. For the Angel,of Death spread his wings on the blast, Aid breath’d in the face of the foe as he pass’d; And the eyes of the sleepers wax’d deadly end ’ cliillj And their hearts but once haav’d, and for ever grew still! And there lay the steed with his nostril all wide, But through it there roll’d not the breath of his pride: And the foam of his gasping lay white on theturf, And cold as the spray of the rock-beating surf. And there lay the rider distorted, and pale, With the dew on his brow, and the rust on his mail; And the tents were all silent, the banners alone, The lances unlisted, the trumpet unblown. And the widows of Ashur are lend in their wail, And the idols broke in the temple of Baal; And the might of the Gentile, unsraote by the sword, Hath melted like snow in the glance of the Lord ! MISCELLANY. EMIGRATION TO FLORIDA. •*’ In tfisNevr World, rain —in the El Dorado, where urchrns-play at cherry-pit with diamonds, and country wenches thread rubies for necklaces instead of rowan-tree berries ; where the pantiles i re made of pure gold, and the paving stones of virgfh silier.” [Perhaps the settlement of no p-rt of the Wes tern Continent lias excited more interest in onr country, particularly m the Southern States, than ; our newly acquired territory of Florida. The i of emigration, which has for some time been Ta tlicr on the decline, is revised with new vigour; and that “ delightful region,” which we have finally succeeded in negotiating out of the power •f tlie indolent Spaniard, is soon to become a thea- j tre of American enterprise ; and the mild -and • equitable laws of our republic's: are shortly to he extended over a territory, which has been any thing else than the abode of rational freedom®ml publick virtue. That the transfer of the Floridas will be productive of great benefits to the citizens of the Uniti*! States, as well as to the Spanish population, there can be no question ; though we believe it will be seen, when the resources of the new territory are fairly developed, and its advan tages correctly estimated, that is real value is now greatly overrated; And we fear that those who go to it with the expectation of rapidly accumu lating fortunes, or of getting a livelihood with little personal exertjon, will reap a plentiful har vest of disappointment. The representations of int -rested speculators should be listened to with > caution, and the emigrant, whatever may be his objects and pursuits in life, should recollect, that no inconsiderable portion of his brother adventur-! ers are of that description of persons who intend to “live by theiv w.ts j” who mgan to accumu late wealth ju any other way than by the drudgery ofbnsincs'. . Now, if we have been correctly in formed. there is already a sufficiency of such cha racters to he found in Florida, and should the number be very considerably increased by fur ther emigration, (heir business must be “ over stocked,” and our adventurous sharpers, instead of exclusively preying upon the honest, the in dustrious, and. the unsu-pecting, may be com • pelled, like famished wolves, to feed upon each other. In such an event, however, we may pretty safely calculate upon a counter emigration; js the acquirement of wealth under such circum stances, where “ diamond must cut diamond,” and “ Greek meet Greek,” would be too tedious a process even for the most patient and persever ing of the profession. But we hope a great por tion of the emigrants from the United States will be men of a diflereht charftter—men who are disposed to enrich themselves by honest industry and lawful enterprise, and who will carry with them that spirit of freefiim, that love of order, that respect for morality andJaw, and that rev erence for religion, which distinguishes and exalts the character of the American citiren. In no other way can the native population of Florida be so soon and so easily reconciled to the new order of things; and in no other way will the real ad vantages of the acquisition become so speedily apparent. We have made these remarks by the way of introducing to the notice of our readers the sub joined extract from a communication puWfr-hed in the Charleston Courier. The picquant sauce of the wifier is admirably calculated to season the long, and sometimes tedious “Geographical Sketches.” “Historical Accounts,” “ Topo graphic? rveys,” See. of the two Floridas,which have been going the rounds of tlie publick prints, ever since the treaty of cession has been conclu ded. It is. a just und sprightly satire upon vision- i ary fortune hunters, land speculators, and office seekers ; aud we are sorry to learn that among the last named class may be numbered between fifty and sixty members of Congre‘, who have descended to court Executive patronage while acting in those high and responsible situations to which they were called by the immediate act of their corrtitueDts. To solicit an office within the gift of the President, while perlbrmiog the duty of a Representative in the National Legisla ture, is, to say the least of it, decidedly improper ; and, in the opinion of many men of high political talents and distinction, directly against the spirit of the constitution itself. We do not wish to cast unmerited censure, and we know not the name of a single member who applied for any of fice during the last session; hut that many did apply, is asserted in several respectable papers as an undeniable fact. Were these applications made because the emoluments of the solicited offices were greater, and the office itself held by a less frail tenure when bestowed by the general government, than when subject to the control of the people at periodical elections ? Let those who best can tell, answer the question.] DREAMS OF GOLD. The acquisition of Florida, while it af fords to tiie nation a little more room for exercise, and to Congress (if it be a bad one) h little more room for wrangling, has serv ed lo fill (he bosoms of individuals with a species of exhilirating gas, producing fan tastick hopes and visions, singular in their appearance and various in their exemplifi cation. It would seetn as if every wish was to be achieved in Florida, and every iil to terminate there; that, with the soft fa cility of her own zephyrs, she is to yield to every solicitation, throwing entirely into the back ground, the cold and barren.-re serve of the otd ladies of the connexion. We shall attempt a brief sketch of the enthusiastic!; excitement which has grown out of the simple proposition, “ Florida is ours.” On the annunciation of this impor tant fact, the speculator in land says to himself, “ I made a bargain some time since with the government; it turned out to be a bad one, it is true, but the govern ment with much kindness, [not much cun ning however,] let me off. Now, it does not require much courage to make another contract, because, if it fails, I shall be re leased, arrd the profits are all mine. Be sides, the profits are certain; for, if the land be low and wet, it will suit for the culture of rice; if dry, it will be good for cotton ; if marshy, excellent for manure ; if a river he near, appropriate for trade ; if the river be remote,secured from freshes; if woody, full of ship-timber; if pine bar ren, just the spot for health; where the growth is lofty, abounding with oak ; and where humble, the fragrant pine apple and i ■orange; if nearAugnstine, how secure from invasion ; if near Pensacola, how accessi ble to commerce; if inhabited, what an I inducement to settle on it; if uninhabited, what a site for a colony.” Thus coropre 'hen|ive in his vb'ws, eager in his wishes, i and fertile in his illusions, the land ‘pecu lator embarks for Augustine, with the anx iety of a bridegroom to behold bis spouse. Another set of enthusiasts are called “ Office Hunters.” These are gentlemen i who will do work unless the nation are their masters. They trust not to labour, nor to chance, nor to the contracts, Or re sponsibilities of individuals. No! not they! They must be paid from the pnblick treas ury—they must be engaged by the year at least v is they cannot, as they prefer, be engaged for life. As the government is independent, it would be wrong to say that those are not so who depend upon its fa vours. Now, to illustrate the effects of 4he Tlorida purchase, and the establishment of a provincial government; outhese gen tlemen, we will suppose that one office only is vacant, and that for this there are, and it is a moderate calculation, one hun dred candidates. The new office being created, some process like the following passes simultaneously in the heads of these hundred individuals, scattered over the Union, to wit: “ I want an office—! deserve an office—l’ll apply an office—l am pretty ure of getting an*office.” Written applications follow, accompanied with re comme.ndations, where they can be obtain ed, stating the peculiar aptitude of the candidate. The patient now enjoys a plea sing anxiety, sustained by the consciousness of approaching elevation. Ke never dreams of defeat, but makes up his mind, with stoics! firmness, to abandon Lis home :n quest of those honours which the scrip tures deny to a prophet, except he be on his travels. Never once does it occur to these eager expectants, that, as Oinderel la’s slipper belonged aHy to Cinderella, though all the girls in the universe should try to put it an, so nn office can belong only <o one individual, and it is useless for so many to try and squeeze themselves into it. When tne numerous civil and judicial offi cers, Judges, Marshals, Collectors, Clerks. Attorneys, &c. which are to grow out of the Florida treaty, are considered, and yet how disproportionate they are to the num ber of applicants, it is melancholy lo think how few of the eggseau produce any thing over which vanity.eits brooding. Yet ex pectation is pleasing. There is something exhilirating in this acquisition to the professors of the lerw. A title drawn in a strange language must be, to a certain degree, obscure—and, in a thinly settled country, difficult of demarca tion. Ihe changes of gov ernment, former and recent, multiply difficulties. The American must pay for Spanish, and the Spaniard for American law ; so that here is a string of inducements for this class of sharp witted adventurers. A valetudinarian, ivho has linen quietly waiting that Florida might be ceded, to go there for his health, has rejected all medi cal prescription, and relies for recover;- on the oraDge groves of Augustine; and an epicure,- -who bad recently visited it, on hearing the ratification of the treaty, turn ed contemptuously from the Charleston market, because in Florida he could buy a sheep bead for seven pence, i The manufacturers of books and charts are likely to gain by the cession. Anew map has become necessary, to change a | jreJlow liacioto a blue one} and a^new History of Florida is announced, which can only cootain one new to wit. iw 00* longing to th® United States. pnm the Savannah Republican. THE INDIAN MINERAL SPRINGS. The following extract of a letter i *om a res pectable and intelligent gentleman of this - tate, lo the Editor of the Savannah Republican. The most implicit reliance may be plaoed m the ac count given of the INDIAN SPRINGS, and the many beneficial effects that have been produced ou invalids, by the use of these waters. Mif.LEDOEvir.ix, May 0, 1821. “ It is much to be regretted, that in such a climate as ours, in which from the length and heat of the summer, aided by local ex citing causes, so mttfh disease is engender ed, people should bo so inattentive to those remedies which a beneficent providence has placed within their reach. Thousands are annually visiting the mineral springs of New York, Virginia, and Buncombe, when we have in th# bosom of our.own State a Spring equal at least to the best ol them, if not supoHour to either. An intelligent gentleman of this State, who hail visited all the celehrated Springs -ithe t uited States, declares, that the In dian Spring is seporiour to eny of them, except one, ami of tiie same impregnation with that and quite its equal. “It is not to be expected that any one remedy should be competent to the cure of every disease, but when we can command one that will remove some of the most pain ful and obstinate complaints to which the human body is liable we should hail it as one of the greatest rifts of the Creator, and humiliate oursches in gratitude to the. beneficent donor. “ That#he water <f the Indian Spriugs has miraculously cur*d many of the most obstinate cases of Rheumatism, Gravel (or Stone in the Bladder Tetter, Scald Head, Itch, Scorbutick Affe-tions, &c. con be at tested by ’ numerous and respectable evi dence. In Liver conplaints its efficacy is unrivalled. Dort. I'aniel of Savannah, a gentleman who stands deservedly high in his profession, informed me that he came here in the month of December, labouring under au obstinate attack of Jaundice, with loss of appetite, and his skin as yellow ns an orange, and by using the water a few days, bis skin became clear, his appetite return ed and he became a sound well man. Dr. Daniel advised me to repair here iu the month of Ja'nuary. I have laboured under a Chronicle complaint of the Liver, for three or four years ; have been tinder the first Physicians ie the State all the time without relief; have yisited the Sea Isl ands, lived upon shell fi-h, which I could eat, and found very little benefit; I have not been ab!a to swallow animal food for upwards of two years, and from two weeks experienke of this water, I am flattered with the hope of being soon restored to health. Doct. Childers who is here with his family, and who stands at the head of his profession, assures me that this water, excels any thing he has ever known in the care of long standing liver complaints. “ A gentleman came” here with Stone in the Bladder, supposed to be as large as a Hen’s Egg; in a few weeks the stone was dissolved and the patient restored to health. “ His Excellency jGov. Clark can vouch fora cure made in his family of one of the complaints; so can Col. Ware the Mayor of Augusta, and many other gentlemen *f respectability. “It has been objected to this place, that the want of accommodation is insurmounta ble. This is a mistake. Those in pursuit of health will find as many comforts as are necessary. Those who are in pursuit of pleasure, will find every thing necessary for their object. All, will find as good fare as is to be found generally in the up-coun try, and in good order, with a disposition to render every one’s situation comfortable. The country is high, healthy, and roman tick, offering every inducement to the vale tudinarian to attend. “In making these remarks, 1 have no other object in view but the benefit of tny fellow creatures ; if 1 can effect this object, l shall be highly gratified, and many will be benefited. “ P. S.—With diffidence I would suggest to the Legislature now sitting, the proprie ty of selling the fractional surveys to the best advantage, Rnd appropriate a-sufficient sum to the building a Hospital at this place, for the benefit of the Poor, who are unable to defray their own expenses at the spring. There cannot be a man in the State who would not approbate such an appropriation.” CIVIL WAR. The Chevalier Johnstone, in his memoirs of the* rebellion in Scotland, in the year 1745,relates the following affecting story : “My acquaintance with Mr. Macdonald &f Scot-house,had only commenced with the prince’s expedition; and notwithstanding the dispropor tion of our age, we were united together in the closest friendship—he eute;tained ‘for me the af fection of a father. As he was naturally of a gav disposition, the grief in which he appeared on hi’s entrance, attracted my notice. On inquiring the cause, this worthy man replied with tears in his* eyes, “ Ah, my friend, yon know not what it is to be a father. lam one of the detaphmeut which is to set out this evening to attack Lord Loudoun. You are ignorant that a son whom I adore is an officer in his regiment. I thought myself fortu nate in being able to procure such a situation for this youth, being unable to anticipate the landing of the prince of Scotland. Perhaps toworrow I may be so unfortunate as to kill my own son with my own hand : and thus the same ball which I j fired in my own defence may give to myself the I most cruel death. However, in going with the detachment 1 may be able {o save him, and if I i do not go, lie may fall by the hand of another.” j The recital distressed me verymuch, and 1 could ! not refrain from mingling my tsars with his, al- I though I had never seen the youth, the subject of i f,lch painful anxiety to nn affectionate father. 1 kept him with me the whole day, endeavouring, by every means in my power, tb divert his atten tion from so melancholy a subject, and made him * promise, on his taking leave of me, to visit me im mediately on his return from the expedition Next evening 1 heard a lod knocking at mv door, and running to it, I prMejvsd this gaud fa tier holding k hand some vfitmg man by the hand. 1 He in-taiuly called out, his eyes- sparkling with I joy, “ Here, my friend, here is ho who caused me so much anxiety; I took him prisoner myself, and buving secured him, l troubled myself very little about taking others.” Hs then shed tears of joy, very different from the tears of the prece ding evening. We supped all three together, and 1 scarcely ever enjoyed more satisfaction than iu witnessing this tender scene between the father and the sou. Notice.
