October 6 58 POETRY. From the Augusta Mirrror. GEORGIA. My native State I —my cherish'd home ! Hallow'd alike by smile and tear, May glory o'er the build her dome, And Fame her temples rear: I love thee for the burning sky, 'Neath which my feet have over trod; I love thee for the forms that lie, Cold, cold beneath thy sod. Oh 1 gladly do I see the light, That hovers round thy fortunes now; The spirit, that must soon unite The sea, and mountain’s brow ; The iron ties, that soon will blind, In one indissoluble band, riacc unto place, and mind to mind, Within thy wide-spread land 1 In vain doth wild fanatic zeal, Thy institutions all condemn, Oil us, be every woe or weal, That emanates from them ; To those who would thy ways molest, Who’d gladly spoil thy verdant scene. Be this response, * What GOD hath bless’d, That call not ye unclean.’ Art thou not bless’d, my cherished home 7 Thy sons are true, —thy daughters fair; From mountain’s crest to ocean’s foam, Thy land is free from care; Wealth glitters in thy golden mines, Health lives amind thy hills of blue, Religion’s light above thee shines, And I’lcnty smiles here too. Aye ! there are hearts within thy land As warm, and brave, nrd pure and free, As throbb’d among the Spartan band Os old Thermopyleje ; And like that band, should foes invade, To seek thy rights from thee to tear, Thy sons will lift the sheathless blade, And bid them come, who dare I As cluster’d in the days of yore, Thy heroes 'neath the “stripes and stars," Unmindful of the sea of gore, And heedless of their scars; So evermore, that banner round, In hours of peace, or days of strife, Still be thy gallant children found, To guard it with their life. GOD bless it! may its spangled wreath. Be ne’er disgraced by sons of thine. Still may they cling its folds beneath. In one unbroken line; And still, in ages yet untold. As brightly beam its glory's sheen. As when it it waved, with scanty fold, Above the old Thirteen ! My native State I my cheribh’d home I Hallow'd alike by smile and tear. May Glory o'er thee build her dome. And Fame her temples rear; One hope is to my heart most dear. One boon at Fortune’s hand I crave, Fate made me date my being here, Let Fate ir.ako here ay grave seanna*. Gee R M C miscellaNV. THE MINUTES At THE POST OFFICE. People talk of going abroad to study society, as if this city alone were not a volume of hi:- manity large enough for the investigation of any reasonable life time—h City Where everv corner has its even', every square its history, and every street its study. The man who goes abroad to observe, would find it impossi ble to tread its remotest street, when its wretched inhabitants are astir, or to cross Broadway, when the sunshine of bright eyes and beautiful faces is gliding by like ripples on the surface of a river, without finding objects of interest and of study—things to awaken his sympathy and his philosophy. He will find something to regret, something to he ashamed of, and something to glory in. After all, the best pages for human study, are the faces and the scenes one meets with in the streets. — There is not a nook or cornei of our city but contains objects for thought to those who can think. Let us prove the truth of this assertion. We will push aside this pile of newspapers, and fling the old patriarch of a pen on the desk for a oment, while we step across tlte street and see w hat is going on at the Post Office. In ten minutes time, our word for it, we shall find something worth looking at. The sunshine is abroad among the leafless branches of the Park, which begins to look respectable, since Umi tiWj ous mass or tnt ijuny. uiu nriuewen, nas been removes itw™ ts bosom. The panorama es human life is just visible through the distant palings, as it glides down Broadway, far enough from tlx; eye to leave the imagination free to enhance the loveliness of each object as it passes in re view. A slight turn of the body, and Chatham street, that avenue of pawnbrokers, auction, eers, hatters, shoemakers, shopkeepers, and of every thing, in short, stretches before us.— What a world for thought lies in that street! But we have nothing to do with that at present —onr business is with the Post Office. Now that we have taken our stand within range of the Post Office avenues, we arc at leisure to observe wlmt is going forward, and to guess and conjecture to our heart’s content. Here comes a man with an open letter in his hand, one of those beings so full of his own affairs, that he seems as much alone in this crowd as if he were in the green depths of n western wilderness. There is something in that letter that displeases him; a frown lowers o his forehead, and his lips are set firmly to gether as he moves. Now if that man would but take frtendly advice, his letters would be read only in the counting room. The credit of a merchant is, sometimes, a coquettish possession. If the times were hard now, that clench and hand and the muttered words, about lands and eastern timber might do mis chief. Many a poor fellow has become bank rapt by allowing bis empty pockets to sp< alt through his face. Let him pass on—we won't trouble him w ith advice, but if he will read his letters in the street, he must excuse us if we make our own observations. IVO. 10. What have we here? A poor woman, with a thin cloak and a cottage bonnet, which has weathered more than one si ason. She taps modestly at the ladies’ window—a clerk flings it up with a force that makes her start —t e anxious question is breathed—her lips quiver, and her eyes are full of apprehension. She watches the clerk shuffle the handful of letters carelessly, as if the heart of that poor being were not throbbing to every slight motion— and the look which she fixes on him contains a history of sorrow—of ndve.se fortune—of orphanage and widowhood, perhaps. No! the last bereavement has come now. The letter is flung carelessly on the window cill— she grasps it, when lo! it bears a seal! Sho staggers back against the building—the letter, with its death sign, is in her hand, and that hand shakes like a ripe leaf in the autumn wind. Her fingers quivered over the wax a minute, and now they fail helplessly dou n out side of her threadbare cloak. She dares not open it—she cannot —poor thing—her lips are white as marble, and her eyes are hard and tearless. There is something sublime in that woman’s sorrow. Her husband went to the west, perhaps, to prepare a home for b s wife in the wilderness, and perished in the attempt. Or, he may have left tier for the South, to oh tain the employment which he could not get here, and that letter comes to tell her that he died of a yellow fever, where there were none to consecrate his death.bed with a look of af fection. Whatever the history may be, its fa tal termination is written on that woman’s face. She is a widow, and her last shilling was given in exchange for that letter. The purse was empty which she thrust back into her bosom with one hand, while she grasped the letter with the other. She has broken the seal at last. One can almost see her heart swell be neath her scant garments. Her sobs come thick and fast, and the letter is covered with tears as reads. She has no idea that any one is lookin on her; the image of the de. parted stands between her and the world. The park is scattered over with human beings, but she is alone shrouded in the affecting egotism of her soriow. Let her pass on—orphans and famine arc waiting her at home; it needs little imagination to conjecture that! While wa have been occupied by that forlorn woman, the crowd has thickened around the post-office window: merchants, lawyers, doctors, divines, clerks and women, all have been shifting and elbowing their way to the windows. One turns away with looks of sullen disappoint ment ; another thrusts his letters into his pocket, and hurries across the Park in double quick time. He intends to enjoy his corres pondence quietly by a coal fire, with his chair balanced on two legs and his feet over the grate—a sensible fellow that! But our ten minutes are up. We should l ave forgotten it iu our speculations, had not our brother ot the hurried bv with an armful of papers, and a face as full of caro as a lemon is of acid. We could expend a lit tie sympathy on that fellow, but what right has he to an easier life than his neighbors, pray ? One mouthful of fresh air, and then wo will take our bundle and make our way across the street again, gratified that, at ieast, w have found wherewithal to make a para | graph. n.
