After iivft minutes silence ail over tlie room, she sairf, “ Some o:,e h 3 * certainly stolen your heart.” 1 aaid not a word, hut slowly lifted my coat tail ofF tlie floor, rain'd both hands in the pockets, crossed my legs five or six times, md cogitated after this sort; 'Twill be a strong • ir id tmt steals my tieart from under so much coat, vest and breeches. After about ten mi. cutes, she said, “You are quite taciturn this evening, Mr. Barlow.” He, he, he, who's ( 1C 1 grinn’d I, as 1 planted both heels on the same chair I was sitting in, and affectionately embraced my shanks with both arms. Tne dvc was cast ; she burst into a fit of laughter; rose suddenly to run, upset my chair, and I, being doubled up in it like a ball, had nothing else to do. but to lie upset too. I rose ns soon as I could, half choked, with the chair dang ling to mV back ; for someone hud taken the surplus ends of my cravat which, unknown to me. had been hanging down in uncovered glory, and tied them to tiie back of the chair. Filled with shame and confusion, I turned niv feet unto tin; path which led to the house of mv father. Tne cold water which hud been thrown on my feelings, increased the ardor of my love ; I resolved, straightway, to unbosom mv heart to her ; yet, I knew that a mighty •effort was to be made to command even her respect. I ponder’d on the "subject on my wav ho nc—what course should 1 pursue ? 1 •concluded I would write a piece of poetry for her Album, and, in the letter, express my feel ings for her. I hardly knew what poetry was; vet, love being the essence of poetry, my un tutored heart swelled with emotions too big for utterance, and too holy to be lost e’er they had been communicated to their source. When 1 arrived at home. I doff’d my coat and hat for the freedom of thought; sought my room, .and, in the silent beauty of the starry night, sat down to immortalize or kill. What subject? was the next important question—l walked to and fro—scratched my head, and—oh, horrible catastrophe!—tlie idea entered my head—l sat down without thinking—and, af ter four hours hard labor, finished tlie following spicy epistle, with the humble lyric of my muse tiierein contained. Mr. Snip has left the letter and poetry uncorrccted, perfectly original.

When morning came, I sent it post haste to my love ; and oh ! the torment of the anxious moments I spent in waiting for the return of an answer, and happiness in the success ofmv mental effort to captivate. The answer came; 1 souglrt the woods, that in loneliness I might behold the assurance of her favor, and feel tlie 'ey of mutual love. I pressed the precious messenger to my breast, and with trembling hands and palpitating heart, 1 broke the seal— Oil! most horrible catastrophe! just see the answer : Warren County, Dec. 26th, 18—. Sir : —An expression of sincere affection would never meet with contempt from me; on the contrary, I would regard it as an honor, and fed grateful for such a mark of esteem and preference. But. sir. the design of your letter is plain and undisguised; insult to a lady, no honorable man would suffer to puss unre* seated in his presence, much less offer. The conclusion I have unavoidably come to, is, that you are either a scoundrel or a fool; either character is beneath the notice of a high mind el lady. I cannot conclude without observing, that poetry is always acceptable to me,but mea sured nonsense is extremely disagreeable, es pecially, when vanity prompts the bard, (as it certainly did you,) to make yourself tlie “ hern of the story.” L. J. “ Scoundrel or fool,” what an alternative ! ! “ Hero of the story !” ten times worse !! L went home, the victim of shame and despair ; iny pride wounded ; tlie honesty of my inten tions, and the purity of my feelings questioned and contemn’d. I determined to smother the feelings which agitated-my breast, and forget tlie being who had wounded my sensibility, by spurning, in so ungracious a manner, the ex pression of my artless love. Since age has added experience to my knowledge, and dis passionate feeling has succeeded to wild love, I have not blamed the act of the high minded girl; on the contrary, I admire her noble and cutting resentment of that which she thought was a premeditated insult. I have, also, de duced the following “ notions ” from the history of“ my first Love-Letter.” to wit: Ist. Excessive pride generally meets with a corresponding degree of abasement. 2nd. Ignorance is the mot her of many evils. 3rd. Correct motives acted out in ignor ance, are often regarded ns impure. 4th. The productions of an untutored mind are extremely silly iu the eyes of knowledge. (Corollary.) Taste is more improveable than we are generally aware of. sth. Great expectations generally end in great disappointments. 6th. Weakness in man is disgusting to wo man. 7th.

UNDER THE (HTUI HOTEL, THIRD DOOR ABOVE THE POST - OFFICE, AND IN THE BEAR OF (AIUOTMNaI THE HEADING ROOM OF THE MACON LIBRARY SOTIETY. MACON: Saturday Morning, August I, 1838. *- , ..... fcT* The weather, the past week, has been exceed in irk- warm, dry and sultry. Crops, in this vicinity, ore suffering for the want of rain ; the crops of corn will be materially injured by the drought, though it has been heretofore quite promising, o* we learn they are, gener ally, in most parts of the State, The health of onr city at present is good, and, as far as we have been able to ascertain, every prospect for its continuance. There was a fine shower, however, yesterday. Another letter from onr friend “Bifly Barlow” this week : it would be superfluous to solicit for him a perusal, as his former letters have been univer sally received with applause. He has changed his style, and by the assistance of “Jonathan Snip, Scool Teceher,” presents his opinions and notions, &.c. in improved grammar. \Veafenotso sure that Master Jonathan will enhance the value, or interest of Billy’s letters, though he has much improved their style ; the one in question, however, is nevertheless a very good one, as our readers will perceive on perusal. But come in what shape they may, they have been alwaj's accept able to us, and to tur readers, not only for the amuse ment they contain, hut for the well-directed shafis of ridicule he occasionally sends with a sore aim, towards various manners, customs, haMts, See. Ac. tttr The remarks of the “ St.vannali Gecrgian," in relation to the Central Rail Road, (in another part of our columns,) must be gratifying to every friend of internal improvement; and especially those connected with Ma con, and identified with her interest. The prospects of the Road are good ; the work is going on with a rapidity worthy the intelligent ard enterprizing Directors. A rew Locomotive Engine has been recently placed on the road, called the “Macon.” from the manufactory of M. VV. Baldwin, Philadelphia, in compliment to our city. The Editor looks forward to the day, when lie shall be one, with a multitude of the citizens of Savan nah, who shall arrive at our city by the aid of this en gine. “How joyous would be that day.” Yes, to M..* con it will he a day of joy, and of triumph over that ig norance which would pall the energies of improvement and blight its onward movement. And we look for ward to the day when we shall be one of a multitude that shall greet the Editor and his friends on their ar rival in our city, with as loud tokens of joy as onr six pounder can belch forth, and as ninny bumpers of ge nerous wine, as shall make glad the hearts of all. I Clio now will support the ignorant, niggard legislator, that would withhold from the State her greatest source of wealth, her proudest monument of the march of mind ? None, none, we hope. Let this be a “ test question” at the polls. If he be internal improvement man, enst him off, of whatsoever party, or by w hatso ever name he may be called. They are among the great interests of the country, and in which every citizen s L ould feel a deep and lively interest. But we antici pate no longer the determined opposition of ignorance; the shackles of prejudice have been torn up, and the interest of the State will be brought to liear in favor of internal improvement. The people are awake to their interest in this regard, and though a great deal has been done without the favor of legislation, much more can and will be done with it. The time is fast passing away, when people believed that the customs and acts of the olden time were, in all respects, correct and right, and that it would be a sin to depart from them, and we now have a right to look for belter things. He is not fit for a legislator who cannot act upon his own judgment with an eye to the future, without searching all the records of the past for an example for his conduct. Such men are not wanting now-a-days, ’tis high time they were laid on the shelf, the people have no further use for them. There are about sixty stores and dwelling houses now in progress of building or completion in the burnt district in Charleston. We are highly gratified at the rapid progress this enterprizing city is making, in rising from the extensive ruins created by the late fire ; and predict for her yet, a glorious destiny. Her known hospitality to the stranger, was not forgotten in the hour of her distress, and thousands promptly stepped forward to her aid. The times are growing squally; party excitement is beginning to foment, and will soon commence to boil over. Well, we promised not to meddle with these mat ters, though it is quite hard to keep from looking on : we shall try to keep a good distance for fear we may get scorched a little by the high temperature. It is amusing, however, to watch the “ movements, doings, and so on.” Sometimes the sight is rewarded with a summerset, sudden and impetuous, and the Rubicon is passed by simply a turn-over. There a lusty fellow is bearing about among the waves with no certain direction, catching here and there at his old tattered and torn notions— some scramble back, and some scramble on—and some dodge about on the midway, with a skill that baffles all enquiry as to where he was last, or where he is now. The greatest question of the times, at any time, is corn ing up for the people to decide. A momentous ques tion—a political era—a date from whence all of good is to spring, or all of evil, to this wide spread and once flourishing country. It will not do for politicians to be caught napping now, they must be wary and watchful, to be sure and strike in with the popular current, (we speak of office-seeking politicians, those who succumb to party inanauvring for party emoluments, not he who is one from the conviction of principle,) in which many will be overwhelmed, no doubt. Let the peo ple watch well their public servants ; lay upon their oars, as the time is not yet come for action, and keep up an observant watch, and act when action is ne cessary, with judgment and foretime reflection. The South is at present in a peculiar situation, with re gard both to her monied and political relations with the North, and deliberation should mark her course, as there is ample time for it before the final issue. • . 7 JCr A long and interesting letter from General Har rison, giving his opinions on Duelling, was put in type for this impression, but necessarily deferred. STEAM BOAT EXPLOSION. The boiler of the Mary Express, exploded on Wednesday, at Biakely, while waiting for the mail. About two feet of the centre boiler was rent —the wltoel house blown to fragments and a part of the upper deck. The chimney was carried at least about one hundred feet high and fell in the river—pieces of the pipes and deck were thrown several feet beyond the boat. There were about twenty passengers, all of whom miraculously escaped, no one being injured. .Mobile Examiner. Mr. John Van Buren, Governor Cass and Col. Thorne were presented to the Queen at her levee, held June 20, being the anniversary of her Majesty's accession. CENTRAL HAIL ROAD. Otir attention has heen attracted by a splcn. did new Locomotive Engine, lately placed on the road, from the manufactory of M. W. Baldwin, Philadelphia. This beautiful ma. chine is called the “ Macon,” in compliment to our sister city ; and wc hope some day to have the pleasure of being one of a multitude of sur citizens who will enter that city by the aid of this engine. I low joyous will be that day. Many of out readers recollect the en thusiasm which pervaded the whole of the “ empire State,” when the first boat passed along the great Canal. The tremendous feu de joie that resounded through the whole extent of that great work announcing to tlie delighted citizens that the boat had started '■—the whole city—the whole State, was given up to iov and festivity—a proud day for New-York—nor was this all an idle dream—the hopes and ex pectations of the most sanguine friends of the scheme have been fully—yen, ten fold realized. Yet this great undertaking had its opponents and bitter enemies, but now tliey “ hide their diminished heads.” But to return to our Rail Road—on enqui ry as to tlie progress and prospects of the work, we ascertained the following facts : The road bed is graded to the extent of 73 miles. The rails are laid 35 miles, the cars running that distance, and the Macon mail and passengers are now carried 30 miles on the road. This shortens the time between this city and Macon about 4 hours ; a connec tion with the stage line will be made in a few days 10 miles further up. Tlie contractor for laying superstructure is pushing on with a heavy force at the rate of about 11-2 miles per week. The grading is under contract to a point 79 miles from this city, and on Wednesday of next week, contracts will be extended to 100 miles, and the road will lie graded that distance by the first of January next. The force on the line is now about 400 men. Two parties of Engineers arc now ac tively engaged in definining the line from the Ogccchee upward, and the result of their sur veys shows a more favorable route than was originally calculated on. The inhabitants of Burke county are awak ettirig to the importance of a connection by means 0 a branch between our road and Au gusta, via \VaYnesborough—and if wc may be permitted to express an opinion on the sub ject, we have no hesitation in saving, that no Rail Road pro : ect in the State offers a fairer promise of profit than this hranc' 1 . A public meeting is called at Wayncsborough, on the Ist Monday in August, to deliberate or! the subject. We say, “ God speed them in the good work.” Sav. Georgian. SUICIDE BY THE TEXAN MINISTER. We learn from the Lexington, (Ky.) Intelli gencer. of the !7tli ult. that Peter W. Gray son, Esq. of Texas, committed suicide at Bean’s Station, a few days before, by shooting himself, with a pistol, through the head. Mr. G. was on his way from Texas to Washing ton City, having received and accepted from the Government of Texas, the appointment of Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States. The act, it is said, was committed with much deliberation. Mr. G. was a native of Ken tucky. THE DEATH OF MR. GRAYSON. Jno. G. Todd, late a Captain in the Texian navy, hns published n letter stating that Mr. Grayson was not the Minister from Texas to this Government. He was appointed but de clined. lie was on his way to Baltimore to attend to the procurement of a naval force for Texas, at the time of his melancholy disease. Mr. Joseph Stephenson, of Madison countv, (Ky-) committed suicide on the Ist ult., by shooting himself through the head with a rifle. M rs. Elizabeth Ulversort, of Gurraud coun ty, (Ky.) was found dead in the barn of her husband, Mr. JohnG. Alverson, on the 3d ult., having hung herself with a rope attached to one of the joist". EXPORTS AND IMPORTS OF COTTON. The quantity of Cotton exported from the United States during the year ending Septem ber 30th, 1837. was 438,924.560 lbs, Sea Island, 5.286.971 lbs. Tne value of the whole 63,240,102 dollars. TO PREVENT THE RAVAGES OF CATERPILLARS. We have just been informed by a friend, on whose candour we can place tlie most implicit confidence, that injury to tlie trees from these destructive insects may be effectually prevented by introducing a little sulphur into the tree, ns deep as tiie wood, so that it will come within the range of tlie sap. This is true of fruit ns well as of other kinds of trees. Onr informant states that at the time he was informed of this fact lie had a Weeping Willow much infested with caterpillars which hud withstood all at tempts to remove them. He then inserted some sulphur, and at that time the sap being in free circulation,-its influence was perceived within twenty-four hours. The caterpillars took up their line of march and the tree was left without a single worm. On tlie 3d instant, by E. E.
