Boston Courier, MOORE, THE POET. ’Mr. Moore married a lady of the name of Hamilton, daughter of the table decker to the princesses. She had a poetical turn, and is said to have assisted her husband in writing his plays. The following specimen of her poetry was hand ed about before her marriage. It is addressed to the daughter ol'the famous Stephen Duck. You will Aonder, my Duck at the fault I must own, Your Jenny oflate is quite covetous grown ! Her millions though tortune should lavishly pour, Yet still I Were wretched if I had not Moore. As gay as I am, could I spent! half my days In dances and op’ras, assemblies and plays ; Her fate your poor Jenny with tears would de plore, For alas! my dear girl, \yhat are these without Moore ? ’Tis the same tiling with matters, with money, with men, (And 1 think I shall never be happy again,) I’ve danglers, I’ve prattlers, I’ve lovers full score, And yet like true woman. I sigh for one Moore, Mamma, she cries “Jenny, why all this ado ! You may have a husband, you know, child or two; But I pouted, I whimper’d I fretted, I swore, I would not have one, if I could not have Moore. The Baron (poor devil) has just now been here, And lias offer’d to settle eight hundred a year ; But I answer’d the fellow, as I’ve answered a score, You know that won’t do, sir, for I must have Moore, Yet for all this bravado, I vow and protest, That avrice ne’er yet had a seal in my breast; For I swear I’d not envy the miser his store, Sol had but enough for myself and one Moure, Though the fools I despise, dare to censure my fame, Yet I think Fin as wise as some folks I could name, I but Worship that idol which others adore, For they who have thousands, would gladly have Moore, You’ll wonder my girl, who this dear one can be, Whose merits have made such a conquest of me: You may guess at his name, for I told you be fore; It begins with an M, but I dare not say Moore. From the N. V. Eve. Post. THE FEMALE PILGRIM.

No guide attends thee, Hence for the my fears arise , If a guardian power befriends thee, ’Tis unseen by mortal eyes. “Yes unseen, but still believe* me, , Such a guide my steps attends ; He’ll in every strait relieve me, He from every harm defend ” Pilgrim, see that stream before thee, Darkly winding through the vale; Should its deadly wave roll o’er thee, Would not then thy courage fail I “No ! that stream has nothing frightful, To its brink my steps I’ll bend ; Thence to plunge will be delightful, There my pilgrimage will end.” W bile I gaz’d with speed surprising, Down the stream she plunged from sight; Gazing still, I saw her rising, Like an angel cloth’d in light! “Mirth, that wrinkled care derides, “And Laughter, holding both his sides.” i The hardest fend off, or the Bear and the AI liaator. St. Martinsville, May 4,1831. On a scorching day in the middle of June, 1830, whilst I was seated under a venerable live oak,on the ever green banks of the Teche, waiting for the fish to bite, I was startled by the roarings of some animal, m the cane brake a short distance below me, apparently getting ready for action. These notes of preparation were quickly succeeded by the sound of feet, tramping down the cane, and scattering the shells. As soon as I recovered from lav sur prise, I resolved to take a view, of what I supposed to be two prairie bulls mixing im petuously in battle, an occurrence so com mon in this country and season, when, as Thompson says, “ Though all his lusty veins The bull, deep-scorched,the raging passion feels. When I readied the scene of action, how groat was my astonishment, instead of bulls, to behold a large black bear reared up on his hind legs, with his fore paws raised aloft, as if to ma ke a lunge. Ilis face was besmeared with white foam sprinkled with red, which dropping from his mouth, rolled down his shaggy breast. Fnvtic from the smarting of his wounds, be stood gnashing his teeth and growling at his enemy.—•-A few paces in his rear was the cane brake from which he had issued. On a bank of snow-white shells spot ted with blood, in battle array, stood bruin’s foe, in shape an Alligator, fifteen feet long! He looked as if he had jiist been dipped in the Tcche, and had emerged like Achilles from the Styx, with an invulnerable court of mail. He was standing on tiptoe, bis back curved upwards, and his tonguolcss thrown open, displayed in his wide jaws, two large tusks and rows of teeth. His tail, six feet long, raised from the ground, was constantly waving like a boxer’s arm, to gather force.— Ilis big eyes starting from his head, glared upon bruin, whilst sometimes uttering hissing cries, then roaring like a bull. The combatants were- a few paces apart when 1 stole upon them, the “first round” be ing over. They remained in the attitude described about a minute, swelling them selves as large as possible, but marking the slightest motions with attention, and great caution, as if each felt, confident be had met his match. During this pause I unconceal ed behind a tree, watching the mana’iivrc in silence. I could scarcely believe my eye sight. What, thought 1, can these two beasts have lo light about. Some leaders may doubt the talc on this account it, because every one knows what they are fighting for. 'The same reasoning will not always apply to a man fight. Men frequently fight when they are sober, for no purpose, except to as certain which is the better man. We must then believe that beast will do the same, un less we admit that the instinct of beasts is su perior to the boasted reason of man. Wheth er t!p v did fight upon the present occasion without cause, 1 cannot say, as I was not pre sent when the affray began. A bear and a ram have been known to fight, and so did the bear and alligator, whilst I prudently kept in the back ground, preserving the strict neu trality betwixt the billigercnts. And now, if the reader is satisfied that such a battle as this might have taken place, in the absence of any known cause, I will go on to what I saw of it, as a witness. Bruin, though evidently baffled, had a firm look, which shewed lie had not lost confidence in himself. If the difficulty of the underta king had once deceived him, he was prepa ring to go at it again. Accordingly letting himself down upon all fours, he ran furiously at the alligator. The alligator was ready for him, and throwing his head and body partly around, to avoid the onset, met bruin half way, with a blow of his tail, that rolled him on tiie shells. Old Bruin was not to be put off l>> one hint, three times in rapid succes sion, he rushed at the alligator, and was as of ten repulsed in the same lnanr. r, being knocked back by each blow just far enough to give the alligator time to recover the swing of his tail before he returned. The tail of of the alligator sounded like a flail against the thick coat of hair on bruin’s hca 1 and houlders, but he bore it without flinching, still pushing on to come to close hoits with his scaly foe. lie made his fourth ''barge, with a degree of dexterity, which those who have never seen this clumsy animal exercis ing, would suppose him capable cf. This time he got so close to the alligator before his struck him, that the blow came with half its usual effect. The alligatm was upset by the charge, and before he could recover his feet, bruin grasping him round the body, below the fore legs, and holding him down on his back, seized one of lus legs in bis mouth.— The alligator was now a dreadful situation, notwithstanding his coat of mail, which is sof ter on his belly than his back, from which “The darted steel, With idle shivers flies.” Asa Kentuck would gay, ‘he was getting used up fast.’ Her •if I had dared to speak, and supposed he could understand English, I should have uttered the encouraging exhor* tation of the Poet, “Now gallant knight, now liobl thy own, No maiden’s arms are round thee thrown.” The alligator tempted in vain ‘o bite, pres sed down as he was he could not open his month, the upper jaw of which only moves, and his nock was so stiff, he could not turn his head short round. The amphibious beast fetched a scream in despair, but b- iug a war rior “by flood and by field,” he was not en tirely overcome. Wreathing his tail with agony, he happened to strike it against a small tree, that stood next the bayou, aided by this* purchase, he- made a convulsive flounder* which precipitated himself and bruin, locked together, into the river. The bank from which they fell was four feet Ivgh, and the water below seven deep.— The tranquil stream received the combat ants with a loud splash, then closed over them in silence. A volley of ascending bub bles announced their arrival at the bottom* whore the battle ended. Presently Bruit, arose again, scrambled up the bank, cast a hasty glance back at tin river, and made ofi‘, dripping, to the cane brake. I never saw the alligator afterwards, to know him, no doubt lie escaped in the water, which 110 certainly would not have done, if he had remained a few minutes longer on land. Bruin was for ced by nature to let go his grip Under water to save his own life, I therefore think he is entitled to the credit of the victory ; besides, by implied consent, the parties were bound to finish the fight on land, where it began, and so bruin understood it. If this record should be carried up to the Supreme Court of the U* nited States, I think the judges would decide in bruin’s favor, by this modern principle ef law ; one thing is certain, viz : :they would decide that they had jurisdiction by implica tion ; per force of which, what is it that can not be nullifcd ! Love of Dress. ‘Man is in no haste to he Venerable. At present, it seems if there were no occasion to become so. People die as usual; but it is not the fashion to grow old- Formerly, men subsided and settled down into a respectable old age at forty, as they did into bog-wig, and a brown coat and waistcoat of a certain cut. The father of a j family no longer pretended to pas3 for a gay young fellow, after he had children grown up 1 and women dwindled by regular and willing 1 gradations, into mothers and grandmo^icr.;, ■ transferring their charms and pretensions to j a blooming posterity; but. these things are ; ,10vc r thought of now-a-days.

Dress levels all ages as well as all ranks— Whitaker's Monthly Mage TWILIGHT ‘Of all the myriad of enjoyment which na ture unfolds to man, I know few equal to those elicited by a balmy sunun* r sun set. The idea is old, but tiie reflection, it excites arc perpetually varying. There-is something in tins hour, so tender, so holy, so fraught with simple, yet sublime associations, that it belongs rather to heaven than to earth. I he curtain that drops down on the physical, also descends on the moral world. Tliedav, with its selfish interests, its common-place distractions, has gone by, and the season of intelligence—of imagination, of spirituality is dawning. Yes, twilight unlocks the Blan dusian fountain, of fancy: there, as in a mir ror, /effecting all things in added loveliness, the heart surveys the past,"the dead, the ab sent, the estranged, come thronging back ort memory; the Paradise ot inexperience, from which the flaming sword of truth has long since exiled us, rises again in a'l the pristine’ beauty of flowers and Vcndur ; the ver pot where we breathed our first vows of the slen der, girlish figure that, gliding like a sylph beside us listened entranced to that avow al, made in the face of heaven, beneath the lis tening evening star; the home that witnessed her decline; the church-yard that received her ashes, the grave wherein she now sleeps, dreatnless| and happy,! deaf alike to the syren voice of praise, and the withering sneers ef envy—such sweet hut solemn recollections sweep, in shadowy pomp, across the mind, conjured up by the spells of twilight, as he waves his enchanted wand over the earth.
