‘ Struck the wild warbiings of his lyre.”
LINES TO MY FIRST BORN.
“ Sweet babe ! true portrait of thy father’s face,
Sleep on the bosom that thy lips have prest!
Sleep, little one ; and closely, gently place
Thy drowsy eyelid on thy mother’s breast.
Upon that tender eye, my little friend,
Soft sleep shall come, that eometh not to me !
I watch to see thee, nourish thee, defend —
‘Tis sweet to watch for thee—alone for thee.
His arms fall down j sleep sits upon bis brow,
His eye is closed; he sleeps —how still and
calm!
W ere not hi3 cheek the apple’s ruddy glow,
Would you not say he sleeps on death’s cold
aria ?
Awake, my boy!—l tremble with affright ’ —
Awake, and chase this fatal thought!—un
close
Thine eye but for one moment on the light l
E ven at the price of thine give me repose 1
Sweet error!—he but slept—l breathe again—
Come gentle dreams, the hour of sleep be
guile !
Oh ! when shall he, for whom I sigh in vain,
Beside mo watch to see that wa king smile 1”
A PORTRAIT.
“How holy woman’s youth—while yet '
It rose with life’s first di ws is wet—
While hope most pure is least coldest.
And all the virgin in the breast! ,
O’er her white brow, wherein the blue
Transparent vein seem’d prouu tobcar
The warm thoughts of her heart—unto
The soul So nobly palaced there !
O’er her white brow were richly braided
The tresses in a golden flow;
But darkly slept the lash that shaded,
Her deep eye, on its lids of snow.
What could that magic eye inspire 1
Its weary light was a desire ;
And each blue wandering of its beam,
Called forth a worship and a dream ;
The soft rose on her-softost cheek
Had yet the sun’s last smile to win ;
But not the less each blush could speak
How full the sweetness hived within.
The rich lip in its bright repose
ILfuscd above its wealth to close."
GIBBON IN HIS GARDEN,
lie sat in his own loved bowers,
While the summer moon’s soft light
Was bathing the roses and jessamine flowers,
That bloom’d through the noon ofnight;
The Spirit of Nature benignly
The scenes and the season with beauty arid rest.
Before him 3 bright iake lay,
And a fruitful valley smil’d ;
And oeyond in the moonbeam’s glancingray,
Were the polished glaciers piled ;
And the splendor of miilion worlds was lent
To ’he face of the dark blue firmament.
And not the charm alone,
Of visible nature was there:
For the Mind’s high triumphs and beauties
shone
Even more divinely fair ;
And years of labor, the patient sage
In rapture gazed on the perfec.page,
lie had traced an Empire’s fate,
And the star of Ctesar’s liue,
From the Maze of iis high meridian state,
To its dark and cola decline ;
And the lofty magnificent tale was told,
In words that glittered like burnished gold,
lie had linked his humble name
W ith that of the mighty dead ;
And already he felt the rich wreath of fame
On his throbuing temples shed ;
The splendid circle was round them twin’d,
And he reigned a king in the realms of mind.
But in this his hour of pride,
Was his spirit truly blest 1
And felt he uo longing, for aught beside
The high hopes that thronged his breast ?
Oh—yes!—for his bosom yearned to impart
It, burden of blis3 to some kindly heart.
He knew that fate had given
A ether boons than this—
And he sighed, when he felt that the hand of
heaven,
Had denied the crowning bliss
The Eden around him Was all his own,
But amid thatEder he stood ulonc !

THE KISS CF WEDDED LOVE.
‘ Give me of wedded love, the holy kiss,
: Bestow’d with rapture, and receiv’d w ith bliss—
Where soul embracing soul in union sweet,
Not only lips, but hearts together meet.
Give me the kiss that wants no fancied aid
From warbling nightingale in myrtle shade;
From flow’r enamel I’d mead or secret bow’r,
Beneath the moon’s pale beam at midnight hour,
Be mine the kiss that’s giv’n without a fear,
That stains not honor, and that wakes no tear —
The kiss whose raptures gold can never buy
The kiss that’s ne’er remember’d with a sigh—
Give me the kiss of innocence alone,
That hallow'd kiss that I can call my own.

STANZAS FOR MUSIC.
There be none of beauty’s daughters
With a magic likethoe ;
And like music on the water
Is thy sweet voice to me:
When, as if its sounds were causing
The charm’d ocean’s pausing,
The waves lie still aud gleaming,
And the lull’d winds seem dreaming.
And the midnight moon is weaving
Her bright chain o’er the deep ;
Whose breast is gently heaving,
As an infant’s asleep :
So the spirit bows before thee,
To listen and adore thee ;
With a full but soft emotion,
Like the swell of summer’s ocean.

PROSPECTUS

And Agricultural und Mercantile Intelligencer.
MY recent relinquishment of a participation
in the editorial labors of an old and well
established journal, would seem to require but
few preliminary remarks, in the proposed under
taking, were it not, that they are usually deman
ded by public expectation, and sanctioned by
custom. As there is no good reason why this
“time-honored observance” should be disregard
ed in the present instance, I shall submit an epit
ome of my principles, and the course which shall
bp observed in conducting anew journal. The
object of the proposed publication being purely
what its title implies, supercedes the necessity
of that political commentary which the doctrines
of the day have usually demanded; yet, as my
former professions are held with unabated at
tachment, and there being no neutral ground, in
the conflicting and varied sentiments, which dai
ly arise, as to both men and measures—it follows,
that I should not only make an exposition of my
political tenets, but also, that they should be
boldly set forth, and fearlessly defended. I have
ever indulged an ardent devotion to Republican
ism, as the term was understood by its advocates
in ’9B—a sacred regard to the letter and spirit of
the Constitution, and a determined and fixed hos
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
verrignty of the States, aud 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, and believing
in their correctness, shall abide by them in every
trial.
Among the many topics of deep interest that
agitate the people of all classes, is the exercise
of unwarrantable governmental influence on thg
industry and resources of the country, and the
unconstitutional expenditure of the public treas
ure to objects of Internal Improvemert—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 re
sulted from the latitudinary construction of the
Constitution. The dangerous consequences which
may ensue, are already indicated by the excited
feelings of the country. lam deeply impressed
that wrong has been done, and evil tolerated—
yet, with a spirit of forbearance, it would be bet
ter for the oppressed to bear their evils whilst
they are tolerable, than “fly to those they know
not of.”
The present is an era in the history of our gov
ernment,' distinguished for improvement. The
lover of his country behoMs it on its “return
march” to its original purity and principles.—
Already has the distinguished head of the gov
ernment, said—“Ti e successful operation of the
federal system can only be preserved by confin
ing it to the few awl simple, but yet important
objects for which it was designed.” This is a
guarantee, that die purpose of the present Exe
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 friends
in the wise and well directed course which is
pursued by them.
The time was, when to dissent from the moa
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 had 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. I can review my
past course in relation to State affairs, with cheer
ing approbation; my future efforts will be inti
mately connected with the past; and it is hoped,
without offence to an adverse part}-. The writer
does not believe in the infallibility of man, nor
in their perfection as a party; it will therefore be
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, and of our
State’s interest:—such men as will “defend the
rights of the People, the Sovereignty of the
States, and the Constitutional authority of the
Union against all encroachments.”
It shall he my studious endeavor to render the
Intelligencer an Agricultural and Mercantile ve
hicle: to effect it, I 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 ac
ceptable to one, whatever may benefit the other.
My efforts shall be used to procure the earliest
and most useful mercantile information, and lay
it before the public; and it will be my desiro to
go into Rural Affairs, and garner the choicest and
best offerings for my Agricultural readers.

Mineral Springs,
22 j MILES FROM MaCON.
JSSILILf,
ON tire subscribers’ premises in Monroe coun
ty, Ga. 22i miles west of Macon, (on the
road leading from that place to Columbus, by way
of Thomaston,) are Four mineral Springs two of
which have been recenily discovered. They have
been analyzed, and are found to contain the fol
lowing minerals: The first is strongly impregna
tad with Carbonate of Iron, and a small portion of
lime, the second, Oxyd of Iron, carbonic acid a
fixed air, Sulphate of magnesia or Epsom Salts,
and muriatic acid. The third contains the same
as the second, but lias a smaller portion of the
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 he a valuable Tonic and al
ternative ; which have been established by the ex
perience of some, who have proved its effects. —
Many laboring under chronic diseases have been
much benefitted, and others cured.
The local situation is high and airy, and the
sweet or free stone water is eq *il in coolness, pu
rity and health, to any in the State.
The builders of the first four tents shall have
tiie privilege of timber, and can occupy the same,
every summer for four years. Liberel privileges
will be given to others. Tents can be rented on
moderate term3.
Ills house is comfortable, censtructed for the ac
commodation of boarders or travellers. His Ta
ble shall be well furnished, and the Bar supplied
with a variety Jof Spirits. The prices of Board
will be low; and convenient houses are prapared
for the accommodation of families. Tents arc
now building, and other improvements going on
about the Springs. There is a Post Office kept
here, called Spring Hill. From the locality of
the place, the virtue of the waters, ami the unre

modation of boarders and travellers; fie hopes to

Shocco Springs ,
WARREN COUNTY, N. CAROLINA.
(Nine miles South of Warrenton and sixteen
miles North of Lot.isburg.)
ON the first day of June next, the Buildings of
this Establishment will be prepared for the
reception of Visitors. The Houses are large and
numerous, sufficiently so, to accommodate an as
semblage of two or three hundred persons com
fortabiy.
She subscriber is flattered with the expectation,
that the conveniences and improvements which
have been added to ibis Establishment, in all
those matters which 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 are 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 j
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 rooms, where they
can be at all times, perfectly secure in the enjoy
ment of quiet retirement.
The Subscriber pledges herself to dovote her
chief exertions to the accommodation of private
families, A will spare no 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 nro abundantly spacious to
receive all who may desire company.
No Pußlic Balls will be given at Shocco during
the season, but those who delight in Music and
Dancing can partake of t hem without its disturb
ing or annoying, in the slightest degree, the rest
of the Boarders.
Few Watering Places present more rational
objects of attraction than Shocco. Located in the
most healthy, rich and 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 sedative effects upon
persons afflicted with Dyspepsia, liillious dis
eases and general debility, where they have per
servered in its use.
An arrangement will be made to have Divina
Worship performed at the Spring on the Sabbath
day, when such visitors as may choose, can attend
preaching without inconvenience.
My terms for Board, Ac. will be the same as
last year, viz. $1 per day for each grown person;
$22,50 per month, or $6 per week; Children and
Servants half price. For Horses sls per month,
or 60 cents per day.

Montpelier Spring ,
Ilonroc county, Cicorgia*.
71411 E undersigned, after great labour and ex-
A pease, i3 at length enabled to offer this esta
blishment to the notice of the public,
In a climate like ours, where the enervating in
fluence of long and warm summers is experienced
by all, inviting the operation of causes, lending
to the production of autumnal diseases) it is an
object of no trifling import to the community to
have recourse to a situation in which the assaults
of disease may be prevented, its violence mitiga
ted, aud recovery rendered speedy and effectual.
Such a place the undersigned honestly believes he
is offering in the Montpelier Spring.
Independent of the advantageous location of
this establishment; situated in a region unques
tionably healthy; the Medical qualities of the wa
ter, are of a character entitling it to high eiaims
upon the confidence of the community.
The waters of Saratoga and Ballstcn have long
since, rendered them places of extensive resort,
both by invalids and persous 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
\\ aters ot Saratoga and Ballston, as published by
Dr. Mead, they find tiie waters of the Montpelier
Spring, to possess, with a trifling exception the
same chemical qualities. Asa chalybeate contain
ing more Iron than theformer and loss than the lat
ter, with a large proportion of tiie muriates of so
da and lime ; the most striking difference being
the absence of uncombined 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 has
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 r. 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 their award the proprietor
will cheerfully rest the reputation of the Spring.
The undersigned assures the public that he
would not thus recommend the use of the Mont
pelier water, but having been extensively engag
ed in the practice of medicine in Georgia for near
ly thirty years, claims the right to judge of the
remedy he recommends. •
This fountain is situated in one of the most
healthy and best improved situations of Georgia,
seventeen miles from Macon near the road leading
from that place to Thomaston. His building is
large, airy and comfortable, situated on an emi
nence, high and commanding; surrounded by
springs of the purest water, anil refreshed by an
atmosphere pure and invigorating.
The proprietor will be able to accommodate
comfortably one hundred regular boarders, and as
many transient persons as may favor him with
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-country. His BAR will be stored with the
best; his STABLES well furnished and attended.
His prices will be the same as those charged at
the Indian Spring.
Comfortable Tents will be prepared for those
who prefer furnishing their own board.

I*l IE subscriber respectfully informs those
. owners of Property at the South, that his ac
quaintance with the American, Foreign and Emi
grant Capitalists is very every extensive —and as
many are constantly communicating by let
ter and in person, making inquiry bow they may
invest their tunds to good advantage, wishing to
know if some plan could not be adopted, thatthey
might communicate and correspond with owners
of Mines, Plantations, Ac. at the South, Ac
has induced me to open an office in this city and
tuvor you with the following preamble and adver
tisement for your perusal.
I haying (since 1 have opened my office) many
capitalists recorded on my books as applicants,
now tender my services as agent or informant, to
owners of property, more particularly those who
own Gold and other Mines, Ac. Firmly believ
ing that much can be done to the advantage and
benefit of all concerned, by entering into engage
ments and contracts with CAPITALISTS, who
will unite, and form companies, as mining com
panies, or engage as corpartners with private in
dividuals orcompatties already organized in fact
arrangements could be intered into with capital
ists, to sell or rent or lease them property as above
described, or by allowing them a reasonable inte
rest and securing them by mortgaging unincum
bered real eetate, worth double the amount of
any sum required, money could be obtained on a
loan o i and, 5,7, and 10 years. Finally, to con.
elude, it well be well to remark, in order to save
time,trouble and delay, it will be an invariable!
rule to be observed and complied w ith, all first
communications on business, must fuljy impart
the wishes, wants, and views of the applicant or
w riter—and also, forward a full and correct des
cription of all or any property, (should real estate,
Ac. in any way lie connected with the business)
particularly describing its location, situation, quan
tity, divisions, improvements , quality, distance
from post, mercantile and manufacturing towns,
cities, He. navigable streams, post and turnpike
roads, value, lowest prices, terms of payment, Ac.
Ac. and other necessary information and instruc
tions, Ae. according to the nature of the business.
Also, each application must be accompanied v. ith
an advance retaining fee: For all business a
mounling to $20,000 and under, the advance fee
