TIIE ROSE OF MAY. ■Jarne, author of “Lettersfrom the East.” I said the flower would bloom no more, That wither’d yesterday; •That morning dews would ne’er restore My lovely rose of May. The future was too cold a thing In my sweet dream to be ; The present rose, the pri sent spring, Are all of life to me. I do remember wt 11 my grief, \Y hen died my flower—and then My joy. w hen tune brought, leaf by leaf, As sweet a flower again. And then 1 said, “Farewell, despair, Thou art no guest for me; Whate’er I loose of bright er fi.ir, 1 hope again to see.” Alas! I’ve often wept s'ncethen, And death has robbed my bowers : But even amidst the griefs of men, I’ve comfort found in flowers. For, rftiie bloom yf love be brief, And if Fame’s crown be riven, * 1 would not mourn life’s fading leaf, Buthope for spring in heaven. JEPHTiIA’S DAUGHTER. F. om the Hebrew Melodies. BY BRAHAM AND NATHAN. Since our countr)", our God, oh ! my sire, Demand that thy daughter expire, Since thy triumph was brought by thy vow, Strike the besom that’s bar'd to tin enow ! And of this, oh ! my father, he su:e That the blood of thy child is as pure As tire blessing l beg ere it flow, And the last thought that soothes me below. Though the virgins of Salem lament, Be the judge and the hero unbent! I have won the great battle lor thee. And iny father and country are free. When the blood of thy giving hath gush’d, When the voice that thou lovett is hush’d, Letmy memory still be thy pride, And forget not 1 smil'd when I died. THE LAST SONG OF SAPPIIO. BY MRS. HKMAN§.

My dirge, is in thy moan ; TJy spirit finds response in thee, ’To its own ceaseless cry—“ Alone, alone ! a ‘. . end me hack one other word, Ye tones that never cease!

Away ! my weary soul hath sought In vain one echoing sigh, L':.e answer to consuming thought In human breasts—and will the wave reply ? * Sound on, thou dark unslumbering sea ! found in thy scorn anil pride ! 1 ask not, alien world, from /Are, What rryowj kindred earth hath still denied! And yet I loved that earth so well, \\ itli all its lovely tilings ! AY hat is for iklt the death wind fell On my rich lyre, and quenched its living strings ? Let them lie silent at my feet!

Yet glory’s light hath touched my name, The laurel wreath is mine— V' ith a worn heart, a weary frame, O! restless Deep, I come to make them thine! Giving to that crown, that burning crown, Place in thy darkest hold ! JJurymy anguish, my renown, With hidden wrecks, lost gems, and wasted gold I Thou sea bird, on tire billow’sxrest, Thou hast thy love, thy home ! They wait thee in tire quiet nest — And I—unsought, unwatch’d for—l too come! I wish this w inged nature fraught These visions, brightly free. This boundless love, this fiery thought— Alone, l come ! O! give me peace, dark Sea ! “Mirth, that wrinkled care derides, “And Laughter, holding both Lis sides.” During the Revolutionary War, when a corps of the American army were encamped near the borough of Elizabethtown in New | Jersey—an ollicer who was more of a devo j tec of Venus, than of Mars, paid his addresses Ito a lady of distinction, whom he was in the ; the habit of l isting nightly, in the cultivation ; of those kindly feelings which love so cordi ally inspires. On a discovery ol' the cause of the repeated absence ol the officer, and of j the place where his interview s w ith his dulci- I ca were had, some.waggisli friends resolved to play off a handsome trick at his expense, which should deter him from a repetion ofhis amorous visits. The officer it appears rode a very small horse ol the pony kind, w hich he always left untied, with the bridle reins over his neck near the door, in order to mount and ride off without delay, when the business of courting and kissing" was over; and the horse always remained until backed by the owner, w ithout attempting to change his po sition. On a certain very dark night,-when the officer had as usual, gone to pay his de voirs to the object of his affections, and was enjoying the approving smiles of the lovely lair one; bis waggish companions went pri vately to the door ol the house where the offi cer was; took the bridle and saddle from the horse,which t hey sent quietly away .placed the former on the tail, and the latter on the hack of a very sober ruminative old cow, (with the crupper over his horns,) who stood peaceably chewing her ci; !, near the spot. Immediate ly thereafter, they retired some distance from the house, and separating, raised the loud cry of alarm, that the enemy had landed, and were inarching in full force into the village. On hearing the voice of alarm, the people run out greatly excited; & consternation entering (•very dwelling, found its unwelcome way spee dily, into the household temple where our official ii ro was worshipping. Taking coun sel from his fears, and snatching a hasty kiss, lie startiTom the lady’s chamber, krush ng rapidly downstairs, shot out of doors with the velocity of a musket ball, and owing to the darkness, not seeing the interesting change in the conformation ofhis nag, mounted hastily into flic saddle, with his back towards the head of the cow, and plunging his sharp spurs deeply into her side, caused her to bawl out with excessive pain,A: she darted off in gallant style, A in her best gallop made the camp. The officer still [dying his trusty spurs and whip to the skin ami hones of the suffering old animal and with all ins wine and love on hoard— finding hiins elf hurried rapidly backwards, inaugre all his efforts to advance ; and hear ing the repeated baw lings of the tortured and frightened beast, imagined that he was car ried off by magic, and roaring out most lustily that file devil had got him—was carried in this state ol perturbation into the very alignment oi the camp. The courageous sentinels, hear ing the jrotse, and imagining no doubt, that Hannibal and his oxen were coming, dischar ged their pieces ami tied as if the devil had chased them • (lie alarm guns were fired—the drums beat to arms; the officers left their quar ters A cried, turnout ! turnout!! with all the strength of their lungs. The soldiers started from their sleep as if a ghost had crossed their dreams—and the. whole body running, half naked, together, formed as quick as possible i gallant dishabille, prepared to repel the terrible invader. When lo ! the ludicrous sight soon presented itself to their eyes,of thegallant officer, mounted on an old cow, with his fact towards her tail, and this appendage sticking straight"out behind ; her tongue hanging out —ln r sides gory with the grievous gigging of the spurs, nml himself, owing to his excessive tear, almost deprived of reason, and half, and halt petrified with horror. A loud and general roar of la io iter broke from the assembled band, at the rider and his steed—the whole corps gav him three times three hearty cheers as he bolt, and into camp, and lie was seized and carried to his quarters in triumph, there to dream of love’s metamorphoses, backward rides,' sternway adv ances, and alarms of inva sion, and thereby to garnish his mind with ma terials for writing a splendid treatise on the novel adventure of cow-oloirv.

They have | been analyzed, and are found to contain the fol i lowing minerals: The first is etrongiy impregna- J tod with Carbonate of Iron, and a small portion of | lime, the second, Oxyd of Iron, carbonic acid a I fixed air, Sulphate of magnesia or Epsom Salts, j and muriatic acid. The third contains the same I as the second, but lias a smaller portion of the i several minerals, and is colder. The fourth is | like the second, only that there is no Iron in it.— | The mineral impregnation is such, that the water may be presumed to be a valuable Tonic and al ternative ; which have been established by the e\ perience of some, who have proved its effects. — Many laboring underchronic diseases have been j much benefitted,and others cured. | Tire local situation is high and airy, and the j sweet or free stone water is equal in coolness, pu : rityand health, to any in the State. I 'l’he builders of the first four tents shall have the privilege of timber, and can occupy the same, j every summer for four years. I ,iht rel privileges j will be given to’others.

JOHN FERGUSON. Spring .Hill, Monroe co. May 13. 0 Shoeeo Springs^ WARREN COUNTY, N. CAROLINA. (Ante miles South of Warren ton and sixteen miles Aiorth of Lendsburg.) ON the first day of June next, the Buildings of this Establishment will be prepared for the reception ol V isiters. The Houses are large and numerous, sufficiently so, to accommodate an as semblage of two or three hundred persons com fortably. She subscriber is flattered with the expectation, that the conveniences and improvements which have been added to iiiis Establishment, in all those matters w hich essentially concern the ! health, comfort, and amusement of its visitors, will render it the ensuing season, more attractive than ever. The private apartments will afford ample retirement to invalids, families, and others who prefer it. They arc so arranged, as to com bine every convenience and accommodation, suit ed to the largest or smallest assembly, male and female. Arrangements are also made, with the particular design of accomodating large families, by affording them large, spacious cabins, near to or remote as they may select from the centre build ing, with double, and single where they can be at all times, perfectly secure in the enjoy ment of quiet retirement. The Subscriber pledges hcTself to devote her chief exertions to the accommodation of private families, A will spare r.o means to render visitors happy and agreeable, by providing every thing that may contribute to their health, by carefully guarding against annoyances of every description. The Public Halls are abundantly spacious to receive all who may desire company. No Public Balls w ill be giten at Shoeeo during the season, but those who delight in Music and Dancing can partake of them without its disturb ing or annoying, in the slightest degree, thereat of tin' Boarders. Few Watering Places present more rational objects of attraction than Shoeeo. Located in the most healthy, rich aud populous part of ths coun try, in the midst of a polished society, it affords in its Springs and climate many advantages', and gives it ascendancy over all the Mineral Water ing places to the South. It is believed that the water never failed in its senative upon persons afflicted with Dyspepsia, Billions dis eases and general debility, where they have per servered in its use.

ISABELLA CLYRK, Guardian. May P 7-liu mflontpelier Spring, 1 Ifloeiroc county, Georgia. PfMIE undersigned, after great labour and ex-1 Spense, is at length enabled to offer this csta-I blishment to the mjlice of the public. In a climate like ours, w here the enervating in fluence of long and warm summers is experienced by all, inviting the operation of ransrs, tending to the production of autumnal diseases, it is an I object of no trifling import to the community to have recourse to a situation in which the assaults of disease may ho prevented, its violence mitiga ted, and recovery rendered speedy and effectual. Such a place the undersigned honestly believes he is offering in the Montpelier Spring. Independent of tire advantageous location of this establishment ; situated in a region unques tionably healthy; the Medical qualifier- of the wa ter, are of a character entitling it to high claims upon the confidence of the community. The waters of Saratoga and Ballston have long since, rendered them places of extensive resort, both by invalids and persons of fashion. And the signal benefits derived from their use by persons labouring under Chronic Diseases (especially of the digestive organs) have obtained for them well merited celebrity—and from a pretty accurate analysis, by gentlemen of competent science, comparing the result with the analysis of the W aters oi Saratoga and Ballston, as published by Dr. Mead, they find the waters of the Montpelier Spring, to possess, with a trifling exception the same chemical qualities. Asa chalybeate contain ing more Iron than theforraer and less than the lat ter, with a large proportion of the muriates of so | da and lirne ; the most striking difference being the absence ofuncombined fixed air, with which the Saratoga water abounds. Of the beneficial application of this “water in disease, the proprietor can bear ample testimony. In chronic affections of the Liver, Spleen, and their concomitant functional derangement of the Stomach; he can confidently assert that he lias seen no remedy of equal nature* In dyspepsia, that Hydra of modern times, it is an invaluable remedy, when aided as every remedy must be, by the temperate use of a well selected regimen. In diseases of the skin, and particularly Tetter in all itsvariety, it is a certain remedy.ln dropsies from visceral obstructions, chronic rheumatism, and that, relaxation and debility consequent upon a residence in low, unhealthy situations, its value is not easily estimated. Abundant testimony could be produced to establish the truth of this state ment, were it necessary; but an intelligent com munity will make the experiment and decide for themselves ; and with tlreir award the proprietor will cheerfully rest the reputation of the Spring. The undersigned assures the public that’ lie would not thus recommend the use of the Mont | peller water, but having been extensively engae ! ed in the practice of medicine in Georgia for nea*r ! ly thirty years, claims the right to Judge of fire j remedy he recommends. , I bis fountain is situate,! in one of the most | healthy and best improved, situations of Georgia, ! seventeen miles from Macon near the road leading ! from that place to Tliomaston. His buildiim is | large, airy and comfortable, situated on an eini i neuee, ljtah and commanding; surrounded by ! springs of llie purest water, anil refreshed by an j atmosphere pure and invigorating. jhe proprietor will be able to aecommodate comfortably one hundred regular boarders, and as many transient persons as may favor him w ith their company ; and as interest and liberality are inseparably connected in such business, it is his determination to keep as good a house in every sense of the expression, as is kept elsewhere in the up-ccuntry. His BAR will be stored with the best ; his STABLE S well furnished and attended. His prices w ill be the Same as those charged at tire Indian Spring - . Comfortable Tents will be prepared for those who prefer furnishing their own board. NICHOLAS CHILDERS. Montpelier, Monroe county, May 18th, 1831. to omvEMis or GOLD MINES, PLANTATIONS, kc. kc.

Tin object ef the proposed publication beino- "purely what its title implies, supercedes the necessity of that political commentary which the doctrines id' the day have usually demanded; yet, as nn former professions are held with unabated at tachment, and there being no neutral ground m (lie conflicting aud varied sentiments, which dai ly arise, as to both men and measures—it follows, that I should not only make an exposition of un political tenet-;, hut’ also, that thev should boldly set forth, and fearlessly defended. 1 have ever indulged an ardent devotion to Republican ism, as the term was understood by its advocates in ’DB—a sacred regard to the letter and spirit" of the Constitution, and a determined and fixed Ims tility to every thing like constructive or implied powers—an extension of equal justice to all par ties—that all power is inherent in and derived from the people, as the original. Source and ulti mate tribunal—the independence and distinct so vereigaty of the States, and their confederacy as a Union, under a government limited and actual .y defined in its powers. These are the promi nent articles of my political faith, aud believiao in their correctness, shall abide by them in even trial. J Among the many topics of deep interest that agitate tire people of all classes, is the exercise of unwarrantable governmental influence on the industry and resources of the country, and the unconstitutional expenditure of the public treas ure to objects of Internal Improvement—measures too frequently destitute of general benefit, and of tentimes marked by a spirit of partiality, selfish ness and injustice. It would be criminal for one “seated on the watch-tower,” and in the exercise of the duties which belong to the Press, to ob serve, with callous indifference, the causes which have, produced, and the effects which have no suited from the latitudinary construction of the ('(institution. The dangerous consequences which may ensue, are already indicated hy the excited feelings ol the country. lam deeply impressed that wrong has been done, and evil tolerated— yet, with a spirit of forbearance, it would be bel ter for the oppressed to hear their evils whilst they are tolerable, than *‘fly to those they knew not of.” The present is an era in the history of our gov j eminent, distinguished for improvement. Tin ; lover of his country beholds it on its “return inarch” to its original purity and principles.— Already has the distinguished head of the gov ; eminent, said —“The successful operation ol the federal-system can only be preserved by confin ; iug it to the few and simple, hut yet important , objects for which it was designed.” This is a guarantee, that the purpose of the present. Kxc cutive of the. Union and his supporters, is an ef fort to restore the Constitution to its original healthy and unimpaired condition. lam happy to accord with the Administration and its friend's in the wise and well directed course which is pursued by them. The time was, when to diswnt from the nv a sures of any of the prominent parties of our State, by an attachment to any of the others, or to their then distinguished organs, implied an hostility and acrimony" which frequently ICid no bounds, and rendered “Wisdom, Justice, and Moderation,'' an empty and absurd profession. The times and circumstances have now become more congenial to better feelings: the perplexing difficulties which have surrounded us—those emanating abroad, and fostered at home, have subsided, with the acknowledgment of our rights, and the successful accomplishment of nearly all the ends which we have contended for. 1 can review rav past course in relation to State affairs, with cheer ing approbation; my future efforts will he inti mately connected with the past.; and it is hoped, without offence to an adverse party. The writer does not believe in the infallibility of man,.nor in their perfection as a party; it will therefore bo my endeavor to support worthy men, and ap prove such orthodox measures as may emanate from genuine patriotism and unadulterated’ re publicanism—such measures as will best answer the ends of our free government, pud of our State’s interest:—such men as will “defend the rights of the People, the Sovereignty ef the States, and the Constitutional authority of the Union against all encroachments.” It shall be my studious endeavor to render the Intelligencer an Agricultural and Mercantile ve hicle: t° effect it, 1 shall hasten to possess my self of all the necessary materials which these ample subjects furnish, to unfold every species of information which will be thought to instruct, to interest, and to please. It is believed, that the mutual conjunction of interest, between the Merchant and Planter, cannot fail to render in’- ceptabla to one, whatever may benefit the other. My r.iforts shall he used to procure tho burliest and most useful mercantile information,' and l.v ii before the public; and it will be tnydesitsi C go into Rural Affairs, and gamer the eh deest and best offerings fur my Agrir.ultural readers.
