ffsAffrnwi. ETTLftr.T on burns.
At a late celebration in Louisville, Kentucky,
of the birth dav of Scotland’s flu orite poet,
I’ jhert Burns, Mr. Prentice, the celebrated
" aster of the Louisville Journal, addressed the
co iv>anv in the following happy strain
y r ; t ' a i n a nd America assemble to pay their
heartfelt tribute of admiration to the memory
i Robert Burns, the unrivalled minstrel of
I'cjdaad, whose fame gathers freshness from
tie laps of years, and, like the ivy, flourishes
greenly over the lone prostration of the lovely
and the beautiful.
.. y 0 u all know the history of Bums. The
w orld knows it by heart. The Scottish hoy,
honi in poverty and obscurity, won his way
t’,,-ough toils, privations and sufferings, to one
~(■ the loftiest and brightest places in the h;sto
rv of liteiaturc. Ho was the child of misfor
liine ; and mankind still wept over the sorrows
of that gifted genius, and will weep over them
forever. He was unfitted for the rough trials
~fa world like this. The lyre of his sou!
should have been fanned but by the airs of
lvdcti, and have given out its music in a heav
cn j v c ]lme; and who can wonder that its cords
wu o jane 1 and almost broken, w heu v sited by
the fierce winds, the swift lightnings, and the
blasting hurricanes of life. Like the rainbow,
j,: s fame sorting up amidst clouds of gloom ;
lint, like the rainbow, it was a reflection of the
sun and “ its arch, though resting upon the
earth, was lost in heaven.”
“The genius of Burns was universal. In
whatever he attempted his success was perfect.
His talent was all powerful, whether lie aimed
at the heart of the lover, to call forth the loud
or the (piiet mirth of the votary of festivity,
to kindle the high and holy fervor of devotion,
to pour his great enthusiasm for liberty into
the ; ?o il of the patriot, or to nerve the arm and
send the lava tide of vengeance along the veins
of the warrior. If you pass through Scotland,
you feel his mighty influence every where, like
a universal presence. He has made that wild
and romantic cuontrv emphatically his own.—
His steps is upon her mountains, her braes
ami her glens —his image is reflected from her
blue lochs and her gushing streams —and his
name is breathed by her winds, echoed by her
thunders, and chanted by her brave sons and
beautiful daughters.”
Charleston Courier.
EXTRAORDINARY SURGICAL CASE.
lii the December number of the Lancet.
Dr. Burness, of the Royal Navy, has placed
upon record a case which equals in interest the
celebrated Copenhagen needle case, which at
traded the attention of the scientific world a
lew years since. Robert Syms, aged 23, of
her Majesty’s ship Belvidera, was placed on
the sick list in the month of June, 1831, with
a boil on the right side of his back, rather lie
low the sholder. This was opened, and a
black shining substance was discovered at the
bottom of the wound. The opening was made
larger, and it was found to be a piece of steel,
about the size of a ramrod, too firmly bedded
to be easily removed. The usual treatment
in.; pursued until early in August, when a
free incision was made, and, to the surprise
of all present, a two pronged kitchen fork, bro
ken short at tike handle, and minus the lower
part of one of t!ie prongs, was extracted. —
Ti.c man declared himself to he totally unable
to account for its presence, and there was only
a slight mark on his back, rather resembling a
vacillation spot, than the scar of a wound
In the course (if November, of the year 1837,
ha again came under Dr. Burnes’s notice,
when the remaining portion of the prong, w as
found on the left side of the neck, having work
ed itself a passage from the right side of the
back. It was easily removed, and the ijian
■soon recovered.
TLAIN TALKING.
A village parson having in his sermon
Italicn too exalted a pitch for the comprehension
of his auditors, found it necessary to make ;
some apology, which he did as follows : j
“Respected friends: My oral documents hav- j
iag recently been the subject of your vitupera
tion, I hope it will not be an instance of vairf i
eloquence or supererogation, if I Ucwnicully
promulgate, that avoiding all syifogistical, aris
tocratical, pcripatetical proDfl#tions,—all hy
perbolical exaggeration ans extern at ions, whe
ther phisically, philologically,
politically, or considered, either
in my diurnal peregrinations, or nocturnal lu
cubrations, they shall benefitlitelv and catego
rically assimilated with- Wnd rendered conge
nial to theoccupits, capgts, and cerebrums of
you, my most superlatively respectatable au
ditory.”

The music of a ■'bpile. — Who has not felt
‘the electric magic of a smile 1 Del icious good -
•humor! Bright gift from him who giveth sun
shine and flowers—blessed fireside; partner-,
brighest soother of care—most delicate grace
of youth—thir lingerer by thesidteof serene
old nge—l dedicate myself to thee: M hat
though the wrinkle gathers on my browyftlm
the chesnut curls of youth are fading to the
gray of gathered years, give me but the re
flected lustre of thy smile, and I shall charm
even yet the eyes that love me.
Taking it easy. —A down raster has com
menced anew paper, which he intends to issue
“occasionally.” Subscribers are to pay in
advance.
“ Bo.z.” —Mr. Cliarles Dickies tlie hiirntta
b!e “ Boz,” has for the first time come before
the public, in his natural character, in the late
ly published preface and dedication of tire
“ Pickwick Papers.” Mr. Dickins was for
merly a reporter of the pi o-ceding of the
London Police Court, for a two penny paper,
in which capacity he served for many years,
with a compensation barely sufficient, with the
t rictest economy, to support himself and a
s r;e frniily. By the publication of the Pick
wek l a ers, he lias realized an independent
Ibrtur.e. He now lives in a splendid palace,
drives Its carriage and tour greys, and has be
come truly t;e Lion of the metropol s. Tiius
lias his me; t raised liimf om the most misera
ble hovel in the obscurest street of the city, to
revel in the halls of luxury and plenty ; such
is the reward of true merit, at and such has Mr.
Dickins deserved.
Excitement. —A man drinks three glasses,
and he is in a state of excitement. A person
receives a box on the ear, and he is excited.
You stick vOur elbow into a fellow -hoarder’s
soup at table, and he is exeffe ou cah a
man a thief or a liar, and he is excited. \ou
kick him with a sharp toed boot, and he is ex
cited. Yon pull his nose and spit in his face,
and he is excited. In short you can do noth
ing in the world without creating excitement —
save one thing: hire a man to saw wood by
the day, and such an example of coolness and
Christian patience as he will exhibit, is enough
to kill old folks.
Chance. —“ lam old enough,” says Smollet,
in a letter to his friend Garrick, “to have seen
and observed, that we are all playthings of for
tune and that it depends upon something as in
signlfieant and precarious as t e tossing up
of a half-penny, whether a man rises to afflu
ence, or continues to his dying day, struggling
with the difficulties and disgrace of life.”
Ftou'crs. —How much of 1 the poetry of life
springs from flowers ! How delicate a pleas
ured it to twine the orange-blossom qr japoni
ca for the bride-r-to arrange a bouquot for the
invalid—to throw simple flowers into the lap
of child hood—and to pull rose-buds for the
girl of whom they are the emblem !
Time. —“ Millions of money for an inch of
tiinc,” was the cry of Queen Elizabeth when
she lay on her death bed. What a warning to
those who daily waste hours of their precious
existence.
For the Southern Poet.
Ou the Ruins of St. Philip’s Church, Charles
ton.
This ancient Temple was built in 1712, and
had those figures inscribed upon its steeple.—
It was much prized by the citizens of Charles
ton, as it had inscribed upon its w alls the epi
taps of its greatest men. Among these were
to lie found the names of Mun ion, Horry,
Moultrie, Pinckney, and Huger. Over the
monument of the latter was represented a le
male form weeping over his fate. And what
was a very singular coincidence, this graphic
sketch of "female devotion was the only part of
the wall unscathed by the devouring element,
which consumed this noble edifice, on the 15th
of February, 1835. Colonel Huger was dis
tinguished as the friend of La Fayette, and one
of the two noble Americans who risked his life
to save him from the prison of Olmutz. On
visiting the ruins, the morning after the fire,
the following lines were penned :
Sage temple ! which so long hath retired thy head
Above tliese sculptured marbles of the dead,
And witnessed active generations pass
From off Time’s full mown fields jus’ as the gras3.
Are these the ruins of thy former state —
This mighty pile, the emblem of thy fate ;
And these lone pillars, do they mark the spot
Where men have lived, were buried and forgot ?
Yes! this huge heap of ruins which I see
Is all that Time has left to tell of thee !
And future generations can behold
Xunghtjiut vvhat history’s pages shot! rntfo and,
In just remembrance of thine ancient date,
And sad recurrence to thy gloomy late.
Yet cannot Hope one Aspiration breathe,
That thou may’s! yetrfn antique splendor live ?
No ! when the last trine trembled from thy bell,
It spoke, in solemn semnd, thy dying knell,
4ml broke the m tgic unhurt for years,
Which inemory-r'ow erfibalms with pious tears.
Yes, twas a fearful stroke Hint brought to earth
This noble pi! of Architectural worth ;
And many a heart grewgad to see the sight,
And many a face grew pah; beneath the light
That glar'd so fearfully sublime on high,
From where the lofty turrets.reached the sky;
And flashed across the city's! vast extent,
Till all its rage in fitful glelfois were spent,
Or shone in brightness on the ocean’s face,
Which once had dashed its waters round thy base
In picturing fbus a scenery so sublime,
And nr pg on the ravages of Time,
We turrt to sketch the desolated walls
Which&nce encircled round these sacred halls,
Now;.‘broken into fragments all around
Ana scattered ruthlessly upon the ground.
*See Hcger’s monument, saved from the flame,
By some kind spirit who revered the name ;
While o’er his urn a weeping mother stands
With streaming eyes, and wringing both her hands ;
The picture of a soul oppressed with grief,
Who had despaired the prospect of relief—
Save ’twaa a prayer that mother’s spirit gave
Which caused the Fates this monument to save ;
Or Freedom might have snatched away the flame
That threatened to coneumo a Patriot’s name.

To Correspondents.
Correspondents should remember to correct their
manuscripts well themselves, before they send them to
• the printer, & not impose the task on us. Many articles
are rejected that ia other respects are worthy of pub
lishing.
SOT The following are the only items of news, by las
evening’s Express Mail. They are from the Journal of
Commerce, of the 5.h, and brought by the packet ship
Cambridge :
Livfrpoql, Tuesday, January IC.
The business of our Cotton Market las' week com
menced well. An improved demand, for the moment,
imparted firmness to our prices ; but, as we proceeded,
such was the extreme anxiety of some holders to sell,
that the buyers became alarmed and showed le3s dis
position to buy, and lower rates were accepted by thc
sellers.
i’.S. Tiie demnnd for Cotton the last two days Ims
been moderate. The sales amounted to about 1000 bis-
To our Patrons.
We have this week presented you with an improved
shoe’, which will be continued to you at the same terms
as the former. We are willing to labor yet more than
we have done for your interest and amusement; in re
turn we expect vour liarty good wishes and continued
support. We take this oportunity of expressing our
warmest thanks to those individuals who have been ac
tive in the dissimulation of this paper; our chiefest aim
is to merit this kindness. We shall still strive to give
you early information of the events passing in the great
world, and while we atemptto satisfy your curiosity, we
will also endeavor to introduce other, and no less impor
tant subjects for your consideration and attention ; to
gether with light and interesting matter for your amuse'
ment and pleasure. We hope to gain many other
friends, who will taks an interest in obtaining for us, a
larger number of subscribers. We ask no more, than
that you mete unto us, the same measure we give unto
you.
&V* Those individuals who have had the pleasure of
perusing Bulwer’s new novel, “ Lelia,” will he grati
fied by visiting the Painting Room of Mr. O. B. Loom
is, with the sight of a portrait of Lelia. It is drawn
from one of those many interesting incidents with which
the novel abounds. The Artist, we think, has been
successful in hitting off the character, attitude, & c.,
which we would suppose her to have assumad under
the circums’ances with which she was connected. —
Her general character should be well understood, to do
justice to the effort of the Artist. Not being sufficient
ly well skilled in these matters to talk learnedly, we |
shall simply request all who may feel interested to call !
and judge of its merits for themselves.
New and Novel Cargo.
Arrived, per steamer Superior, on Wednesday last,
one entire boat load of Ice, amounting to one hundred
tons —shipped to Mr. James Lewis ; it arrived in a good
state of preservation.
Jfjr We refer our readers to the proposals, to be seen
on our fourth page, for publishing a work to be entitled
“ Flora Georgiensis,” to be both a Grammar and Dic
tionary of Botany ; and containing a minute description
of every plant yet discovered in Georgia, tnge’her with
its medicinal or noxious properties, its English name, its
emblem, language, &c.
The utility and importance of such a work will be
immediately recognized by all, not only for the student
but as a medium of useful and important information,
on this interesting and delightful subject. We are sure
that a work of this description, of so much interest to
southern literature in general, will not fail for want of
sufficient support.
fry Troubles in C anada are far from being at an end.
Latest accounts from that quarter still show a disposi
tion, on the part of the Revolutionists, to maintain the
war. The whole frontier is represented to be in a state
of the greatest excitement, and extensive preparations
are said to be making along the line for immediate hos
tilities. Bodies of men are collected at various points
on the lakes and river St. Lawrence, whose intentions
are but too plainly understood.
&J- We have long been under the impression, and
still are, that there is a great deal of literary talent slum
bering in the South, buried, as it were- and veiled from
the sight, bv causes we are at a loss to understand ; and
which if drawn out and put into active exercise, would
be of immense benefit to the public at large, and re
downed to their own honor and the glory of their coun
try. We have remained in a comparative degree of
torpor long enough; too long, indeed, for our own in
terest and advancement. Surely the material is not
wanting in central Georgia to support well, a periodical,
devoted exclusively to thetfo interests, which it would
be the pride and delight of all her sons and daughters
to encourage and sustain. To accomplish this, is our
object; it would be our pride, our glory, to be the means
for this, we labor, and arc content with the drapery,
if it may be so called : we claim no merit, nor presume
to possess qualifications competent to assist in such a
cause, in any manner. Our aim is to be the medium,
the vehicle, to lighten up tHc ways of knowledge—to en
courage and improve talent, and to advance the true
and genuine interest of the South.
It is not necessary that every paper should be imbu
ed with politics, nor are politics alone essential to the
well-being of a nation, or to the interests of communi
ties; there are pther duties beside these which
devolve upon men of talents ; they are morally bound
to the country which gave them their birth, their name,
their all, to watch over and guard her social and mor
al influences, as well as political,—her literature as well
as her commerce, —her arts as well as her agriculture.
If (hey neglect them, they will go wholly neglected and
uncared for by the mass ; and posterity will affix the
meed of fame, not to him who, perhaps, has grudgingly
I discharged one important duty—but to him who has

perity and happinee , We believe there are mar jr such
who require but to commence, to be useful and succe •
ful ; to them we of hr our columns, and in doing B',
flatter ourselves that it ia a mo hum through which good
may be done,, and one no’ unworthy their talents, both
as regards the number and charac or of its readers. —
We hope thattki3 offer wiU be accepted by many men
of scientific and literary attainment; and now submit
with the sincere wish, that the returni ig breeze may
bring with it the responsive answer of many willing
hear s and able heads.
If in our efforts we meet with the “ proud man’s con
tumely,” who stands aloof and scoffs at those efforts—
humble, though they he, os their projector, we say to
him scoff on, onward is our course. We have the sat
isfaction to believe that our intentions and objects will
be appreciated by many good men, who, while they ap
preciate will not fail to reward so far as merit may de
mand. Ii we meet with their approbation and encour
agement, those efforts will indeed have met their re
ward, and we more than repaid for our toil ; we, how
ever respectfully solicit your eburi y : smile a’ the error, ■
but condemn not tin effort. There has and will be j
many articles iurr<>d cod into riiese columns front (he
hands of youth. Toe critic will find many objections ;
But criticism should be a means of encouraging and
promoting literature, rather than a detention. We have
remarked that in this, ns well aj many other instances
aiin.lar, that those who judge with most severity ure the
least qualified to judge. “ Genius is a tender plant”
and requires to be nurtured with care and tenderness,
ra.lier than treated with coldness and contempt. We
can only say to such as are fastideous’y nice on these
subjects, and cm relish only the chastest productions of
the djiy, we fear we shall not present many novel
charms to you. We are w illing to take things as they
arc, and improve as much as may bo. Time and labor
mould igtq perfect fonn, and feature tiie roughest and
hardest materials; These are our treasures which no
man dispossess us of, and which we shall continually
strive to improve to the best advantage. This is our
motto, to improve the passing moment and leave to
Time to do ihe rest; for “it behooves us not to be
wanting to ourselves in forwarding ilje intention of na
ture by the culture of our minds.”
To the Editor of the Southern Post :
You ask a song, a song of Spring—
For gifted ones I leave the task;
For those w ho can with rapture sing,
And in its balmy splendor bask.
I love sad Autumn's dying sighs,
When foliage brightens, ere it fades ;
I love the clitne where Nature dyes
Each season with Her deeper shades.
Poets may sing of Spring’s sweet pow’r,
Os Summer’s gay and lovely bloom :
One Autumn day—one ling’ring flow’r—»
I ask of Earth no richer boon. C.
