Ourselves. We offer to our subscriber- a"a in another improve ment in oar paper: we hope it will meet iheir appro bation and continued support, notwithstanding a tri finy difference is made in the terms Since our little barque was first cast upon llic waters, she has visited many parte —scarce a city in the United Stales but tha 7 i,i:c is “up tor." Her variety of freight makes her wel come in every port, and the especial favorite of the La ck: =, in consequence of her “ neat trimmings.” Iler “sailing master" is particular to court theirfuvor, being known to be a devoted luiic s-man, and is always sure to bless their sight with a “ flytneniul,” orsoine sweet ‘■little love tale,” or an “elopement," or “Mi irriage Evraordinary”—or something to catch the laughtcr -1 ring eye of the fair one ; and then how the rogue thu-kles at the idea of pleasing the ladies 1 But w e v ill drop our metaphor and discourse common sense, after paying our “ sailing-master" tlie compliment to say, he keeps our “ little crab" in us neat and tidy a way as the best of them, and though the packages are n>t always of the most valuable kind, they are always sure to be neatly done up; for, as he observes, “ they are to be submitted to the ladies." This extreme par tiality of our “ sailing master” for the fair is easily ac counted for, being an extremity handsome man himself he has had no small share of their praise and attemion, which has so worked upon his benevolent heart as io determine him to devote his life to tlreir service ; and v. hich he has done in the most solemn manner. But we were to discourse common sense, by the way, this is an article in great demand, in consequence of its scarcity—or, ra'her because it is more needed than any oilier, ftehave a litt'e of itaboard, however, amongst oilier matters, and shall proceed to deal it forth: Ist. Common sense says that every man should take at least one newspaper, and more if be can pay for them. 2d. That he should pay for it—tn advance. 3d. You should never w rite Poetry unless you are in spired, and cannot help it. 4th. You should never get angry with the Printer for not printing it. He may have reasons you know net of. s:h. Always send in your name, with your com munication, for, by so doing, they meet w ith respectful attention, if nothing more. C. Never as* the editor the news, it is his duty to ask thee, and then giva thee all at the appointed time. 7. Should you enter the printing office, never put your Ur upon the type, else you make a pi that will cost you more than sixpense. 8. Never trust that man, nor believe him, that will expose the secrects about a printing office, for they, of ai! others, should he kept. Depend upon it, he will ex pose thine if thou trust him. 9. Shew thy neighbor (if ho does not) the importance °fsubscribing to a newspaper; but do not over-per euade him, lest he rspent and mourn over the loss of h.s Three Dollars, and thereby suffer from thy zeal. 57r The following is an extract from a letter, of a cit izen of Macon, who was wrecked on the Pulaski, to a friend in this place: “ Wilmington, (N. C.) June 23d, 1333. “ My Dear Sir —Worn out with an accumulation of misfortunes and anguish I pit down to write of my trou bles. God knows I have had troubles —pecuniary and persona!—and I have borne them like a man. Ah, God! ] had a wife that laughed and wept with me ; who stood by me, defended me, and never forsook me ; "ho magnified my virtue®, and was blind toiny faults; sensitive, gentle— she is dead ! Poor Sarah too . . gone "'i'll her husband—all three, I hope, in Heaven ! .... "e left Charleston on Thursday, 6, A. M. : my wife f k all day in the after cabin—l sick all day in the for v,'nrd cabin. After dark, I took a little toast and went imo a sound sleep, and about 11 o’clock at night, was B'voke by a crash ; it did not seem to me very loud, and was, perhaps, a minu'e in waking me up, as I was ®° fur from the boilers. On awaking I found myself al most alone in the forward cabin, and 1 screamed fir someone to open the door again and again, without a- Va >l! 1 then climbed through the sky-light, on to the deck, and found the centre of the boat in ruins ! the mrfn very dark, and only a vast black void distinguish able. The boat though was together, and the stern np- P' ured all safe, M v thought was of my w ife. 1 found that she had probably the safest part of the boat, as tlie Mem was out of water, and the bows liegitining to res ile There were two others besides myself whose families were also on the s’ern. The boa’s were lowered under the pretence of seeing if the vessel lenk ♦d. At this .moment the forward deck, where I was, suddenly sunk, say 15 feet below the surface, dividing us from the stern, which did not sink. I, with others, tan up the fore-mast. The hull left the deck, which catnc up ;at this moment the mast fell—l slipt off—it killed several—but most of them w ere drowned at th; time we sunk. When we reached the surface we had nothing but the upper-deck plank ; 1 at once looked for the stern, where my wife was, and found it well out of I "aten but, in a fe w moments the upper deck of the Mem fell with an awful crash—the hull, however, still n, t sinking, but floating off; and we had the anguish to find ourselves fastened to the bottom by a chain "hich had fallen out. I had a strong hope, if I lived, to see my wife ; but those saved from the stern say, that it rolled over in the water and swept off all! The pupers will tell the rest.

As many are not aware of the progressive atate sf this Road, and as an unfavorable impression has gotten posse sion of the mind 9 of some in relation to it, we have been induced to obtain, and lay before our readers die following information, which may be relied on as ccr [ reef. Within thirty months from the commencement of the Monroe Rail-Road, hence to Forsyth, twenty-five miles will be finished, say by the first of November next, and a portion by September. The iron for the who'e road is received, and a large portion on the line, and several miles of the superstructure already laid. The first seven miles of this work is very heavy—so much so, that visiters from abroad express their surprise that so much work should have been accomplished in ro short a time, and so little said in rtfcrance to it. The enterprise is not likely to stop here. A survey has al ready been made beyond Forsyth, twenty-two miles, and about three miles located ; deeds for the right of way having been taken to a considerable number.— We have also ascertained from unquestioned authority that it is the purpose of the Company to meet the Geor gia Road, and form a junction with the Western and Atlantic Rail-Road at the same time. These facts place the matter in a different view from that entertain ed by some unacquainted with tlie true state of things. And it is to be hoped that the papers in the habit of no ticing Internal Improvement in this State, will award to this Company the justice that is their due. Ain ire en ergetic body of men we believe do not exist in any Company in the S'jte, than those who have the super intendance of this Road. Mr With pleasure we perceive by the perusal of a Texas paper, (the Notional Banner,) that Edward L. Holmes, our former feilow-townsman, has been nomi nated as a candidate for Congress, to represent one of t;e counties of that Republic. His talents are known and appreciated by this community, and we rejoice to see that they have likewise been in his adopted coun try. The following is a copy of die fifth resolution pro posed by the committee who were appointed to nomin ate suitable candidates for Congress, and unanimously adopted: Resolecd, That the unimpeachable integri ty and promising talents of Edward L. Holmes Slave not been unobserved by the people of this community, and the earnest w hich lie gives of future usefulness, recommend him as a suita ble candidate to represent tlie county of Mata gorda.

It contains Biographical sketches of Jeremiah T. Chase, Daniel SlietHey, R iget B. Taney, N. Biddle, and J unis Fenitnore Cooper, Esq. the great American novelist. All of whom are and have been prominent individuals in this country, and, consequently these sketches must contain much of interest to tlie American reader: we commend them to their perusal. We are unable, at present, to notice all tlie articles in the Mes senger, and must content ourselves with saying that they are, so far as our reading goes, of great utility and interest. There is, however, one which we must give a passing notice : The Vissiludes of Life, by a lady.— This, in interest, excels any of the articles of the sort we have met with in a long course of reading. It is a tale “ Os woman's wretchedness ; one to be read Daily, in many a young and blighted heart.” Its length prevents our inserting it la our paper as it is our wish to da We are gratified to learn, by a note from tire editor, that there is no danger of the Messenger's “ suffering shipwreck,” though some of her “ crew” have not proved themselves trustworthy. The apprehensions that some of tlie friends of the Messenger have been under in consequence of the reported delinquency of a large number of subscribers, may therefore be queiled as it was not the extent supposed to be. Below we give the editor’s appeal to his delinquent subscribers, and the “ New terms for the remainder of the present Volume only." In consequence of repeated applications for the Messenger for a less period tiian an entire year, tlie Publisher has concluded to alter the conditions, for the present year only, so far as to receive new subscribers tor the remainder of this volume—to commence with either the May or June number : the eight numbers will cost §3 34 ; the six numbers, (or half t ear,) §3 50. The heavy expense, which tlie publication of the Messenger in its present style renders una voidable, and the wish of the Proprietor still further to improve it. makes it absolutely ne cessary that he should hereafter receive all sub scriptions invariably in advance. Apjieal after appeal has been made to delin quents, and still many withhold their just dues. Why this is so, cannot be conceived, since it is acknowledged, on all hands, that the Messen ger is richly worth the amount charged for it; no better evidence of which need lie mention ed than tlie fact that the subscription price is known to have been frequently paid for old volumes. As heavy drafts have recently been made on the Proprietor, lor expenses incurred in estab lishing and conducting tlie Messenger, it is hoped those subscribers who are still in arrears will immediately hand in or remit the amounts they respectively owe; which, though small when considered separately, yet, taken in the ’aggregate, present an amount of considerable importance. In fact, if onehtlf the amount due him could be obtained, the Proprietor would be enabled to discharge every claim against his publication at once : that done, he would bring out tin: next volume of the Messenger in anew dress, and improve it in many other res pec’s. Tie risk of transmitting subscriptions by mail, will lie sustained by the Proprieto . But every subscriber thus transmitting payment, is requested (besides taking proper evidence the fact, and date of mailing.) to retain a me morandum of the number and particular marks of the note sent.

Be it therefore Resolved, That we will support no Candidate for the Legislature or other office in tbis County, who will himself electioneer by treating in liquors of any kind, or by giving Barbecues, or who wall place motley in tlie hands of otlicrs to do so for him. Resolved further, That we will support no Candidate for the Legislature or other office in this County, who will either buy, or place mo ney in the hands of a friend to buy votes in any manner whatever to gain his election. Resolved further. That we will not coun tenance any individual who will either by false argument or by force endeavor to induce a nother to vote contrary 7 to that which his un trammelled conscience shall dictate to him. Resolved, That we will subscribe a pledge to the foregoing effect; and that a Committee of four from each Captain’s District, ire ap pointed by tire Chairman, to obtain similar pledges from the Citizens of their respective Districts, and that tlie names of all such be published in the public Gazettes of this place.

Have you sec a them hovering over tlie tomb Where their ashes have fllcptin a quiet repose, A® the ttiqhf win Is m mnifahy chaunteJ ’heir doom, Or wept its chaste dews a? the tale of their wots; While the Lght of the moon fell softly and sweet O.i the bowers which hung o’er their b illowed re’reat? Have you heard them on high in the still,toss of n ght S .fiko tlie soft lay* of Music i:i he weaker spheres, White the gloom of the skies obscured tr im your sight The farni3 who were tuning such songs far your cars ? Or 9hall there ne’er come o’er the living, a breath, To whisper of those w ho are sleeping itt death ? Met (links there are sounds on the wings of the breeze Which none bat the sensitive spirit can hear, As it sweep® with such majesty o'er the tall trees, Or falls in such sweetness of tone on the ear. I have heard. 1 have heard in tlie soft sully hour, Such sounds breaking over this desolate waste { Till my f-elings have bent at the shrine of their power, And melted to listen tt music so chaste.
