pr.RSONAt, DECORATION'S. In a short time of universal iamiue, how ma nv jewels would you give for a single loaf of bread ?—in a raging fever, how many dia monds would you sacrifice for a moment’s ease T—in a parched desert how many em broidered relies would you exchange for a cool draught ? That these gaudy trifles should be valued at so high a rate, is certainly no small disparagement to the understanding of man kind, and is a sad demonstration of the mean. ress into which we have sunk by the full. Compare them with the sublime and stupen dous* and the lovely objects that every where meet vour eye in the creation around you : Can your richest purple excel the violet, or vour purest white eclipse the lily of the valley ? Can vour brightest gems out shine the glory of the sun? Why then should enormous sums be expended in glittering bubbles and sparkling dust ? Compare them with your books, vour Bible, your souls —all neglected for their sake ! Arise at once to correct sentiments and noble fcims; make tiie Bible your looking-glass, the grace of the Spirit your jewels —if you must shine, shine here; here you shine with advan tage in the estimation of the wise and good— in the view and approbation of the holy angels and the eternal God ; shine in death when the lustre of the fine gold has become dim and the ray of the diamond extinguished ; shine in the celestial hemisphere with saints and se raphs, amid the splendor of the Eternal. x DESCRIPTION of the PERSON OF JESUS CHRIST, As it was found in an ancient manuscript, sent hr Publicus Lentulus, President of Judea, to the Senate of Rome. There lives at this time in Judea, a man of singular character, whose name is Jesus Christ. !

He is endowed with such an unparalleled virtues as to call back the dea l from their graves, and to heal every sort of disease with a word or a touch. His per son is tall and elegantly shaped, his aspect amiable and reverend. 1 lis hair flows in beautiful shades which r.o united colours can match, falling into graceful curies below the cars, agreeably touching on his shoulders, and parting on the crown of his head, like flic head dress of tnc Nazarites. His forehead is smoothc, and his checks without a spot, save that of a lovely red. His nose and mouth are formed with an exquisite symmetry ; his heard is thick and suited to the hair of his head, reach ing a little lielow his chin and parted in the mid dle like a fork ; his eyes are bright, clear and serene, lie rebukes with majesty, counsels with mildness, and invites with the most ten der and persuasive language. His whole ad dress, whether in word or deed, being elegant, grave, and strictly characteristic of so exalted a being ;— no min has scon him laugh.; but the whole world has frequently seen him weep ; and so persuasive arc his tears, that the multitude can hardly hold theirs from joining with him. lie is very modest, temperate, and wise. In short, whatever his phenomenon may he in the cad, he seems at present a man of excellent beauty and divine perfections, every way sur passing the children of men. rROFHSSOIi WILSON. In the last number, of Blackwood, the edi tor thus beautifully and touchingly refers to tiie late report respecting his aberration of mind. “To many people’s minds the idea of our personal identity has become involved in in extricable confusion. But for kindness shown when kindness was most needed—for sympa thy—and affection—yen, love itself-—for grief and pity not misplaced, though bestowed from a mistaken belief of our condition—forlorn— hut not wholly forlorn—for encouragement and solace sent to us from afar, from cities and solitudes, and from beyond seas and oceans, from brethren who never saw our face and ne ver may eec it—life itself must leave our heart that beats not now as it is used to beat, but With dismal trepidation, ere it forget, or cease te remember as clearly as now we hear them, any one of the many words that came sweetly and solemnly whispered to us from the lips of the great and the good, whom Heaven pre serve long on earth to benefit the race by their genius and their virtue.” Professor Wilson alias Christopher North, says the New-York Sun, intends a visit to this country.

We are requested to state, that the Fair of the Prfeftc. terian Auxiliary Female Education Society is postponed ; to Wednesday Evening ncct, the 16th instant —at the City Hall. 55“ We shall give in this and the succeeding num ber, “ Th A Game of Che«s” extracted from the “ South' ern Literary Messenger,” and commend it to the peru sal of the young of both sexes most sincerely. It con tains much good moral instruction for them both. It is not always that tales of fiction have so good a moral tendency, or contain such good general instruction for the young. 85“ “ Sidney” will not appear—for two reasons—the first is, that the world has growri sick of love-complain ing swains—and secondly, because, though we are un able to refer verbatum to the source of the poem, yet with a little investigation, we would risk our reputation upon finding some other author for the lines than “ Sid ney.” While we are under this belief, we cannot con sent to insert them, determined to publish nothing of the kind unless meritorious and strictly original. Again, we are not all inclined to be imposed upon by those who hawk about their rhymes from office to office in search of some clodpole of an editor who cant distinguish sense horn rhyme, nor original maitter from plagiarisms.— We had supposed that the veriest Tyro in reading, had seen Alexander’s Feast, by Driden, and even had it not been our lot to have looked into books, common sense would have enabled us to have appreciated ihe striking and original perceptions of that poem, stamped as it is with the highest order of poetic genius. 55* As summer grows apace, it behoves us to inform our citizens, and more especially visitors to Macon, that we have not only a city in size, but a city in conven ience. , Far example, Mr. Shotweli’s Soda fount is enough to tempt Diogenes front his tub, or Archimides from the demons] rev ion of the forty-seventh proposition. As for our humble sell, we had rather sing out Eureka, Eureka, from the excitement of soda potations, than mathemati cal triumphs—and, bating the price of tickets, we are ever ready to indulge, nor by any means choice wheth er it be raspberry, ginger, sarsaparilla or lemon syrup that s veelens the glass. Besides we have an Ice-housc, and ice-creams served up “ a-a New-York,” to fighteneff the “raw head and bleody bones” of the fever Monster, who has al ready made some attempts to stalk uninvited into our ranks. And by way of variety, the “ ear piercing fife and the spirit stirring drum” will soon be sounding the ala rum on the hills adjacent to the city, while the “plumed troun and 'he neighing steed,” the gleaming bayonet, and the waving banners will be seen in beauteous ar ray, in all the paraphernalia of “ mimic warfare.” Southern Literature & the ‘ Augusta Mirror.’ Time which with its myriad of changes, revolutions and counter revolutions at length establishes permanent government, will also from the depth of its political cru cible, throw up into active existence the orations of the mind, which when first thrown into it, were rudae cl moles indigestae quae, yd as education advances, come cut refined, elevated and often sublime conceptions of the human intellect. Thus it is in newly erected states. The politi \al balance must first be secured—laws must be framed and administered, and government placed upon certain foundations, before the national taste dis covers its tendencies towards the cultivation of lircra ture and the fine arts; they are the last signs that occur to apprize us that the superstructure is completed.— Literature stretches out her hand to gild the finished fabric, and the perfections of painting and sculpture, tell us in their near approach to nature, that man and government has advanced to the utmost limit of civili zation. To go farther, would he treading upon the at tributes of the Deity and making us, at least in powe r and mind, temporal Gods. It was the Augustan age that preceded the downfall of the Romans. The halo that it shed upon that empire seemed to be the breathing space, between the exhaus tion of the vital energies of her heroes and writers as they gathered up and spent their strenglh to heave the last stone upon the “ eternal city ” that had taken a thousand years to build, and the revulsions of the phy sical and moral world that soon overwhelmed the proud est triumphs of her arts and learning. These reflec tions are called up by the contemplation of our own in fantile slate in literature, (I allude of course to South er!] Ti teraturc) andto the recent appearance of the “Au gusta Mirror.” From the Potomac to the Mississippi, how few literary journals, papers &c. have we, in com parison to the vast and mammoth resources both of wealth, population and mind that might be brought in to active operation. Are we waiting for government to ripen, or are we so exclusively occupied in mercena ry speculations that we grow heedless alike of both literature and religion? Stand forth, ye “clay cold spirits,” ye moneyed autocrats, ye cotton-bale samplers and answer, is it so ? To ligh’co up this dull prospect, we gladly hail the “Augusta Mirror,” we give it the friendly grasp, and betoken for it a long life, a useful and a happy one. Its first appearance augurs well for its future useful neess; and located as it is, in one of the first of South ern cities, it will waken up the slumbering genius of the South. Let the gifted of each sexsend in their contri butions, and surely even in Augusta there must be wit, talent and industry enough, to rank it soon among the first of literary jeurnnls. And by way of a parting “goodbye” to its young and enterprising editors, we i bid them God speed, over the untrodden paths of South ern Literature. The journey will be rugged and care besprinkled, but when accomplished, ye will repose on a bed of rose.-, TLe Weather r.ud Nr. TTiitle. We only want a Claude Lorraine to throw upon can vass our mornings and evenings in May, to make them as calm, fine and beautiful as were ever Italian skies, wrapt as they ore in the glowing reminiscenses of classic tale. All that we could ask to finish the picture, would be a few ruined temples, a remnant of a Colliscum’s arch, a fragment of a marble acqueduct, and perchance some few columns of barronial castles, or now and then a tower-flanked pantheon, to take us back “ To the land of the lost Gods And Godlike men,” and to reflect from their parian whiteness the light of that lovely planet as it moves above in her own firma ment in all the calm majesty of acknowledged and un rivalled beauty. No wonder that the Fagan bows down and wor ships the Moon ! Ravished with the heavenly inspira tion by wliich she fires up the heart, and believing as we look upon her in all her transcendant purity, and thesweet, holy serenity that marks her progress as she gleams in bright effulgence inttr minora siicra, that she may be the favored daughter of the “ Great spirit” who “ spake her into being,” would it be irreligious to join in the mysterious adoration ? “ The moon is up; by Heaven a lovely eve 1” would have been the exclamation of the poet, had he wandered out with us on Tuesday evening. What emotions does not nature (impregnate with her own di vinity) excite, and what eye could have looked forth up on her in her own great temple, the blue expanse above only now and then fretted with a few a few stars to re lieve the “ rapt vision” from the clear and unbroken stream of light, poured over hill and dale from the Orb that ameliorates so much the solitude of darkness, and not feel the heart melt before the glorious presence? Mr. Wiide would never have expatriated himself to find a land mo: e genial in its climate, or more pictur esque in its scenery than our own dear native Georgia. For from the sea shore to the mountains, from the wave that meets his morning kiss, to the towering Yonah * that reflects the sub’s last beams from its grey and rug ged peaks, our land is carpeted in ever-varying beauty. Nothing but his classic taste and his longing aspirations to witness amid the scenes of their legitimate birth, the faded and time-worn, but from the hour of their antic quity, venerable and consecrated relics of “Imperial Rome,” called him hence— “ On sloping mortnds, cr in the vale beneath, Are domes where whilom kings did make repair; But now the wild flowers round them only breathe; Yet ruin’d splendor s‘i’l is lingering there.” “ So deem’d the Child,” and so may Richard Henry Wilde love to wander in the same path .hat called forth the vivid and soul-wrought genius of Child Harold as he threw into his poem the burning inspiration of a mind deeply imbued with the recollections of that eias ic land. He is gone from us—and we may see him no more—but from the bosorn of his lone retreat, near Tiber’s side or in Alpine vale, he will sendback across the waters, the sweet verse of “ Tasso” t that we may sing them in cur own tongue, and cherish him in memo ry, who was once tiie worshipped of all that was gifted and beautiful and chivalric in Georgia. * Yonah, or the Great Bear, the highest peak of the Blue Ridge that skirts the upper part of the State. t It is probably unknown to most of our readers that Mr. Wilde is translating “ Tasso,” the sweetest of the modern Italian bards. DOC In the April number of the North American Re view, is an article on Lockhart’s Memoirs of Sir Walter Scott, replete with beauty, interest and information. We regret that we cannot give the whole production to our readers, and the regret is increased when we are aware that so few take that periodical. We take the he following specimen from it—but we advise all who can obtain die Review, especially the females of this city, to read the whole article; and we promise them more advantage from its thirty-five pages, than from volumes of the chaff now winnowing upon j the world. “At the High School, in which he was placed by his lather at an early period, he seems not to have been particularly distinguished in the regular course of stu dies. His voracious appetite for books, however, of a certain cast, as romances, chivalrous tales, and worm eaten chronicles scarcely less chivalrous, and his won | derful memory for such reading as struck his fancy, soon made him regarded by his fellows as a phenome non of black-letter scholarship, which, in process of time achieved for him the cognomen of that redoubta ble schoolman, Duns Seotus. He now al«o gave evi dence of his powers of creation as well as acquisition. He became noted for his own stories, generally border ing on the marvellous, with a plentiful seasoning of knight-errantry, which suited his bold and chivalrous temper. “Slink over beside me, Jamie,” he would whisper to his schoolfellow Ballantyne, “ and I’ll tell you a story." Jamie was, indeed, destined to sit beside him during the greater part of his life.” Os the publications of the “ Lady of the Lake,” he says: “ In 1811, Scott gave to the world his exquisite poem, “ The Lady of the Lake.” One of his fair friends had remonstrated with him on thus risking again the laurel he had already won. He replied, with characteristic, and indeed prophetic, spirit, “ If 1 fail, / will write prose all my life. But if I succeed, ‘ Up wi’ the bonnie blue bonnet, The dirk and the feather an a’!’ ” In his eulogy on Byron, Scott remarks, “ There has been no reposing under the shade of his laurels, no liv ing upon the resource of past reputation; none of that coddling and petty precaution, which little authors cal] “taking care of their fame ” Byron let his fame take caro of itself.” Scott could not have more accurately described his ow.i character. “ The “ Lady of the Lake” was welcomed with an enthusiasm, surpassing that which attended any other of his poems. Ic seemed like the sweet breathings of l is native pibroch, stealing over glen and mountain, and calling up all the delicious associations of rural soli tude, which beautifully contrasted with the din of bat tie and the shrill cry of the war trumpet, that stirred the soul in every page of his “ Marmiou.” The publi cation of this work carried his fame as a poet to its most briiliant height. Its popularity may be inferred from the fact, stated by Lockhart, that the p;ist horse duty r se to an extra lrdinary egree in Scotland, from the eagerness of travellers to visit the loca’iiies of the poem., A mora subsiantiyd evidence was afforded in its tftias ing cirsubdor, and caaeequ&nty' its profile. TV press could scarcely keep pace with the public demand, and no iess than fifty thousand copies of it have been sold since the dato of its appearance. Tiie successful au thor realized more than two thousand guineas from his production. Miiton received ten pounds for tiie two edi tions which lie lived to see of his “ Paradise Lost.” The Ayrshire bard had sighed for “ a lass wi’ a tocher.” — Scott had now found one in the Muse, 9uch as no Scot ish, nor any other poet had ever f iund before.” 85“ The “ Winconsin Culturist," is anew paper published at Milwaukee in the Territory of Winconsin, and devotee to Agriculture; This certainly speaks well for the border country of the great North-west; and we wish the Culturist, the suecess it greatly merits. 11. M. s’lip Hercules, 29 days from Cork, arrived at Hallifax, Nova Scotia, oa tiie 28th of March, with four hundred troops, being de tachments of the 15th, 34th, GGth and 85th regiments. From the Halifax Nova Scotian. NOBLE CONDUCT OF AN AMERICAN CAPTAIN. Her Majesty's Ship Hercules , ) Halifax Harbor, 28th March, 1839. \ Mr. Howe, Sir—May I beg the favor of your giving insertion to the following state ment: On our passage from England to this port, when in lat itude 42 N. and longitude 42 \V. we observed a sail haul up for us, apparently with the desire of speaking this ship, I imme diately closed with her, and found it to lie the American ship “Commerce,” of and from Charleston, bound to Liverpool, commanded by Capt. Pony, and that his object in comrau nicating with us, was, to beg that we would receive on board part of the crew of the “ Eliz abeth Caroline,” of St. Stephen, New Bruns wick, which vessel be had met, dismasted and water-logged, in latitude 39 N. and longitude 45 W. and had taken all the crew off the wreck six days previously. These unfortunate persons had been 23 days on the forecastle of their vessel, lashed to the windlass, exposed to every sea, with barely sffiucient food to sustain life, arid all the water that they had remaining was hut two gallons, when the “Commerce,” fell in with her. Mv motive in detailing to you those partic ulars, is principally to express my admiration, and that of all thoie under my command at the generous and humane conduct of Capt. Per ry, as it. has been made known to us by the men belonging to the Elizabeth Caroline. It appears that the Commerce foil in with this wreck by the merest chance, at about half past nine at night, on the 4th of March ; and that on hearing tire cries of the crew, the Com merce instantly shortened sail, wore round and went close alongside of the water-logged vessel; Capt. Perry hailing them in these cheering words, as tiie men have themselves represented :—“ Keep up your hearts, hoys, there ir, too much sea to hoard you know, hut I will never leave you till I take you off, ” and through the night he twice or thrice passed round them, repeating those consoling words txnd offering to veer them water and provis ions if they were in immediate want of either. These generous assurances this brave sailor rigidly fulfilled, and after perseveringly keep ing close to the vessel for two nights and a day, it blowing very hard all tho time, he at length succeeded in getting the people all out of her into the Commerce, where lie clothed them with a kindness, which, as they gratefully say, they never can forget, or will cease to acknowl edge’ In thus making known the exemplary con duct of Capt. Perry, it is with sorrow 1 have to draw a disgraceful contrast oa the part of a vessel, barque rigged, which on the very morn ing of the day that the Commerce fell in with the Elizabeth Caroline, hauled up within three miles of the wreck, and took in her studding sails; yet though the weather was then fine, she bore up again to the Eastward without of fering the slightest assistance, her object thus evidently seeming to have been plunder; and that on discovering living persons on board of the Elizabeth Caroline, which would have ren dered this design abortive, she at once aban doned them all to their late. For the honor of tile two nations, it is to be hoped that those who acted thus inhumanly, did not belong to either England or America, though the crew of the shipwrecked vessel, 1 regret to say, believe her to be English ; but to whatever country she may liclong, I trust her name, and that of her unfeeling master, will be brought to light, in order that tiie man who could act so heartless —so cruel a part, may be held up to the execration o‘ mankind ; and thus receive the punishment which he so well deserves. I have the honor to be, sir, vour most obedient servant, J. TOUP NICHOLAS, Cyptain 11. M. S. Hercules. P. S. —l may add, that with the view of shewing our admiration of the noble conduct of Capt. Perry, in staying so long and so per severingly in a gale of wind by the wreck of the “ Elizabeth Caroline, ” the officers of the “ Hercules, ” and myself, together with Major Estcourt of the 43d Regiment, and the officers of the detachments of the 15th, 54th, G6th and 85th Regiments, taking a passage in this ship from England, have made a subscription for a piece of plate, which we mean to present to the worthy American Captain, as a lasting memorial of the generous deed which he per formed.
