For the Sentinel and Herald, c WOMAN. The greatest ornament, save one, That e’er this fleeting world possess’d, Is lovely woman’s graceful form, In pure religion sweetly dress’d. Array her in this heavenly garb, Then gaze at yonder blazing sky ; And you will not perceive one star With half the radiance of her eye. The brightest gem in earth Or sea, Whicfi high and lofty Wisdom made, Not half the beauteous aspect wears As woman, in this robe array’d. How happy is the man who seeks To find him such a lovely one ; A stream of tranquil joy is his, And earth to him is heaven begun. J. B. TANARUS, From the Louisville Journal. THE NEGLECTED WIFE. Fresh Flowe s are languishing in her dark tresses. The brightest of hue. and the sweetest of breaih, And rich: is the zone that her soft bosom presses— But what are the dreams ofthe young heart beneath? A ruby lipp’d child o’er her shoulders Is Stooping, Yet she hears not the sweet words her young prat tler speaks. For her long silken ydl*fihß, with their dark drooping Lie tear bent and glittering upon her fair cheeks. ’ She sees not the fond glance that o’er her face flashes, Nor heeds the sweet lips that are drinking her sighs, For her dark orbs lie veil’d, neath their soft pericil’d lashes. And wrapt in its sad thoughts her ycung spirit lies. Oh what means the shade o’er her snowy brow steal* in g ? All, all that i* loveliest and brightest is hers, And yet her gweet face, the pure mirror of feeling, Has lost the glad smile that a light heart confers. Is some happy dream of her childish days haunting The stream of her thoughts as they silently flow ? Oh no. the deep love of one true heart is wanting, A lightness and beauty o’er all thtfigs to throw. All that is round her is glittering in splendor, As she sits with her fair child within that bright hall; But. the love of one fond heart, the true and the tender, Would be dearer by far to her bosom than all. But now she is raising her soft eye that glistens Like a rainbow that shines when the tempest is spent, And thus to her fair child who wonderingly listens, Her red lips seem pouring a mournful lament: Sink to thy dreams, my gentle one— The moonbeams waning fast Thro’ yon old chesnut’g chequered boughs Their farewell gleams have cast; Thy father does not love me now, But, while thy velvet cheek Is prest unto my aching heart, I know it cannot break. Ah nestle closer to my breast, And kiss my brow again : Thy soft lips soothe my throbbing hetirt, And cool my fever’d brain ; Anjl raise to mine thy melting eye, And let me hear thy tone,- For oh ! methinks thy father’s glance Is mirrortd in thine own. Oh woman’s heart is of itself A bright unbounded sphere, Peopled with glowing images, That take their hues Irotn her, And thrilling too with glorious thoughts That ever burn and shine, While s*s presides above the whole, The priestess of the shrine. And love too deep and passionate To breathe in measured words, The love that adds sweet harmony To life’s mysterious chords, Garnered with all her dearest hopes Within her bosom lies, And flings o’er every outward thing The light of summer skies. For love like thi3, my blue eyed one, I left my mother’s breast, Tho* timid as a little bird That flutters round its nest, F ‘ r .l w tbnn a childlike thing. As if the spirit of the rose Was fluttering o’er my cheek. I met thy father, little one, When summer blooms were rife, E’er Romance had withdrawn her fair < And glittering veil from life, For oh ! he loved me fondly then, And yet, ’tis passing strange, That one so loved and beautiful Could ever, ever change. For lie is changed, I read it now Within ths careless smile, And in the light unloving look, That meets my own awhile, He used to ever seek, iriy side Before the day grew dim, But now he lingers till the lark Oft sings it matin hymn. And woman’s lot is on thee too, Yet when thy gent e eyes Are clouded with the memory Os thy young mother’s sighs, Remember, child, ’twill be thy tJlsk To hide the sad heart’d thrill, And learn, wha'e’er may be thy fate, . To suffer and be still. AMELIA. From the Knickerbocker. NATHAN HALE. “ Falling, ere he saw the star of his country rise ; pouring out his generous blood like wa ter, before he knew whether it would ferti lize a land of freedom or of bondage ; where soever among men a heart shijll be found, that beats to the transports of patriotism and liberty, its aspirations shall be to claim kift dred with thy spirit.”— Webster. There is a mournful pleasure in turning aside from the active duties of life—in forget ting its busy hum and bustle—to contemplate the lives of ihose who, having acted the parts assigned them usefully and honorably to them selves and their native land, have passed to the “ undiscovered country.”... In examples worthy ever to be imitated and extolled, no land surpasses that of our birth. Without seeking, then, in foreign climes, or reviewing history for fit subjects of eulogy, we need only revert to a period distinguished in our own, to find some of the noblest monu ments of bravery, heroism and virtue. The pages of Grecian and Roman history furnish us with no brighter examples of pure and ele vated patriotism, of disinterested ambition, of devoted attachment to country and, her best interests, than is to be found in that hour which “ tried men’s souls”—the revolution of ’76. CJpwards of fifty years have now elapsed, since the American arm.v, in the person of Nathan Hale, lost one of its fairest flowers. For more than half a century, he has lain in his cold grave, neglected and forgottenand while the names of many who have served their country, have been trumpeted by the breath of Fame through the world, the name of him who died in it3 defence, has been suf fered to fade away from the memories of his countrymen. Born on the eve of that awful tempest which shook the old world to its very centre, he arrived at manhood just as its gathering clouds began to concentrate in their wrath. It was at this period in our country’s history, that he closed his academic course; arid hav ing graduated at a sister institution, it is from this hour we may date both his public and military career. Endowed with a mind of no common mould, he had gathered from the paths of sci ence her richest and sweetest flowers. Pos sessed of genius rarely bestowed, and rigKtly guided and directed hv unusual taste and ar dor in scientific attainment, he became dis tinguished as a scholar. Beloved of all who knew him, for those traits which never fail to excite esteem and affection, he was equally (ristinguished for the correctness of his morals, the innocence of his habits, and pur tv of his principles. In his manners, pleasing; in his disposition mild and ingenuous; in his understanding, vigorous and powerful, he bade fair to arrive at an eminence which few of a similar age eould hope to attain. Thus fcvored if heaven in the morning of life, no one ever commenced to tread its chequered path with brighter prospects. Assisted and encouraced in his career by the best wishes and heart-lelt pray ers of his associates and friends, he ?vent forth to the fulfilment of his high destiny. Alas! how little did he imagine that Disappoint ment had marked him for her own!” The period had now arrived, when these crect fires, long struggling in the breasts of our fathers, burst from their confinement. The friends of liberty had begun to ralfy in her defence, and the slumbering spirits of her sons were aroused f “ Then said the mother to her son And pointed to his shield. Come witil it, when the battle’s done, Or on it, from the field!” The daring spirits of the land had assem bled, and their cry was heard rising high above the cannon’s roar: “ Ocr country FIRST —OCR COUNTRY CAST —OCR COUNTRY!” The voice of Nuthan Hale was heard in that ory. He bud seen hi* country’s danger, hiiu he was among the first to enlist in her de fence. The floivery paths of science, intel lectual honor, and advancement—self-iriter eRt. present happiness, and the endearments of home—were all forgotten, and merged in one feeling—love of country. Having obtained a commission in the army, he commenced the active duties of a soldier, with the same vigor and activity which marked his character u’hen engaged in the fields of literature. Prompt to every duty, his influence here was as extensive as it had been in private life. Passing over intervening events, we now arrive at one of the most critical epochs into which the American army had ever fallen; and it was during this period, that the fate of Hale was sealed. The battle of Long Island had been fought; and for a little time the guardian spirit of freedom seemed to have withdrawn its protecting hand. But it was only momentary. Under the guidance of the “ Father of his Country,” the army was led to a place of safety. To the prudence of Washington, under God, are the people of America indebted for the rescue of their ar my at this hour of its peril. Having retreated to New York, it became a matter of moment to the commander-in-chief to ascertain the situation of the British forces; their strength and their future movements. It were need less to specify the plan which was adopted to gain the information desired. It is already familiar to the reader. The desire of Wa shington being stated to his assembled offi cers, they retired to their meditations. Who amongst them was willing to undertake a ser- vice so fraught With danger? Among (riese officers was Nathan Hale. After mature deliberation, impelled by a sense of duty, he resolved tri undertake the task. Though urged by the pleadings of a friend, not to undertake a service so hazardous, his mind still remained fixed and steadfast; and no motive, however powerful, could induce him to neglect an opportunity to lie useful to his country. Being told that hir, success was extremely doubtful, and his danger imminent, he replied, that u conscious of all this, as he was, he would not consent to withhold his services.” Accordingly, he passed over to the enemy, and succeeded in obtaining the desired information. What must have been his feelings, now tfy r ‘ \\ I lit I ciriinnrnit 1.b.0l i,r.4 r . bosom, at the thought of returning to his great commander, the immortal Washington, laden with the fruits of his daring enterprise ? Indeed no reward was expected, none was offered, to him who should undertake this task. No bribe of promotion, no glorious prize, was held out in case o p success ; hut all that could be gained, at most, was the ap proving smile of the Pater Patriae, and the thanks of his countrymen ! Such noble dis interestedness, such patriotic, devotion, can only be found in the hearts of those who, like him, could appreciate the blessings of free dom. But while such happy thoughts were pass ing in his tnind ; while his heart neat high with the expectation of a speedy return to his fellow soldiers, and his friends, a sudden cloud dimmed the bright vision. Arrested by the hand of the enemy, he was already be yond the reach of mercy. His object disco vered. he frankly confessed it. The die was cast. He was tried and convicted ; and now he stands upon the scaffold. Let 11s pause, and for a moment contemplate the nwOil scene which is soon to close. Calm, collected, firm—no servile fear of death is marked upon his brow. Conscious of no guilt, how digni fied his deportment !—how undaunted his courage! As he lftoks around upon the as sembled multitude, who are gathered togeth er to behold his departure from the world, and sees before him none but his enemies, he neither hesitates nor falters ; but with an un daunted look, resolved to die for his country, he yields to the sacrifice. Asa dying request, he asks that a Bible may be. furnished him, With a fiendish ma lice, this last prayer is refused ; and his let ters, which he desires may be conveyed to his mother and his friends*are destroyed. His last sad farewell they never will receive ! Still firm amid all this cruelty, he utters no complaint; but as his eyes are turned for the last tinie toward the home of his birth, while a beam of patriotic fire kindles up his counte nance, he exclaims: “ I only lament that I have but ore life to lose for my country;” and he dies, a martyr to the cause of liberty. Such was the fate of Hale* Though no marble column rears its head, to tell that he died for the republic, yet on the hearts of his countrymen his name is engraved in living characters. Let his memory be cherished. Let it be transmitted to the latest posterity. And long a/ter the frailer monuments of mar ble and brass shall have crumbled into dust; his story shall survive. F. W. S. THE DUELLIST’S DESIRE. We copy with unqualified commendation, the following rebuke of the Congressional duel ists, by the editor of the New York Observer. It is as well done as their demerits can deserve. Miserable men are they who have at once imbrued . their hands with blood, disgraced their elevated stations, done dishonor to their countrvjand excited universal indignation.— North and South, the horrible anair is execra ted by all highminded men : duelists them selves joining with”their more sober and reli gious neighbours in calling it by its right name, murder. The seconds of the late duel have publish ed a statement of the facts in the case, which they conclude with these words: We endeavored to discharge our duties according 10 that code under which the parties met, regulated by magnanimous principles, and the laws of humanity. Neither of us has taken the least exception to the course of the other; and we sincerely hope that here all controversy wha 4 ever may ceacf. cialy desire our respective friends to make no publication on the subject. None can regret the termination ol the afiair more than our selves, and we hope again the lasi of it will be the signature of our names to this paper, which we now affix.” .v. GEO. W. JONES, HENRY A. WISE. “ The last of it !” Men do not speak thus of deeds with which they are satisfied—deed# which their consciences approve. Such lan guage is inspired only hy Conscious guilt; by ‘•a fearlul locking (or of” evil consequences ‘* to come.'* *t is thl? language of one who is afraid that he shall be obliged to remember what he has done, and that the remembrance will be torture. The feelings which prompt thik language are but the foretaste of those that shall compel them to say “ to the moun tains and rocks, fall on us, and hide us from the face ofHi.m that sitteth on ti e throne, from the wrath of the Lamb; for the great day of his wrath has come, and who shall he able to stand ?” On reading it, we could not but recollect certain passages from another writer, with whom these men may be more familiar.

To do this, thy power Must wake the dead, or lay me low with them. r>o so, in any shape-Mti anv hour— With any torture, so it be the last. “ The last of it!” Do they think their statement will be “ the last of it” to the man whom they have sent, unprepared, to the eternal world ? We say, unprepared, for in case of suicide, we may hope there was in-. 3anity ; when men are executed for murder, we may hope there was repentance; but he who falls in a duel, dies in the very perform ance of an act inconsistent with preparation for heaven ; dies in the very act of defying God and making himself more fit for hell, and more worthy of its torments. Do they think this will he “ the last of it” to the widow of their victim? Will her an guish be appeased, will her heart be made whole, will the very remembrance that she ever knew the. happiness of conjugal affection be blotted out, by this cool history, given by men whom she has such cause to remember? Will this be the last of it” to the orphans, whom their crime has made orphans? Can they forget to whom they are indebted for the countless dangers, and trials, and suffer ings, which must be the portion of the father lass? Can they—ought they—to cease to remember who opened the incessant fountain of their mother’s tears? And while orphans suffer, and the bereaved weeps, and the soul of the murdered dwells where Voii’ have sent it, shall you be allowed*to hear “ the last of it!” It may not he. Eternal.justice cannot, suffer it.. The remembrance r e every thing into cn accusation. When men fasten their eyes upon you, you shall think that they remember Cilley. When they speak in whispers, von shall think they are talking of him. „ When they speak indefinitely, you shall suspect that they allude to his murderer. When they are. silent, you shall believe that they repress their indignant recollections pur posely. Every work of God, and every deed of man, shall be to you an accuser. Your own consciousness of what you have done is as immortal and as inseparable from your selves, as any other attribute of your souls, and shall be vour everlasting remembrancer. Such is the penalty of crime. Cain ex pected to find an accuser and an avenger in every one whom he should meet; and Jones and Wise pray, but it will he in vain, that their words may be the “ last of it.” SILK CULTURE. The New York Sun has collected some interesting facts relative to the history of the silk culture in this country, from winch we select the following * ; “ The lands in Georgia were granted on condition that the settlers should plant one hundred vvhite mulberry trees for every ten acres. Every encouragement was given by the disinterested founders, by sending out trees, seed and worms; a Piedmontese cler gyman was employed to instruct the colonies in the art ; it was enacted “ that raw silk, of American growth, Should be imported duty free into the port of London even the seal of the Stale of Georgia was adorned with the representation of silk worms, and the appro priate motto “ non sibi syd aliis.” Georgia silk was spoken of in 1735 in England, as proving “ very good,” and a writer of that time remarks that “if Georgia arid South Carolina will steadily pursue this art, they may have the honor of being Called our silk colonies.”’ A public Filature, was established and in 1759 there was exported from Georgia 10,000 lbs. raw silk, which v/as Sold two shil ling* a pound higher than that of any other country; as a confirmation of which we no tice a paper which was laid before the com missioners of Plantations, hv the most eminent silk throwsters in London, stating that having examine/i 900 ibs. of Georgia sik, they find “ its nature and texture truly good, the color beautiful, the thread even and clean as the best Piedmont, and will lie worked with much less waste than the China silk.” .Thin, we may remark, is the present character of Ame rican silk. Mrs. P.ncknev, the same lady who intro duced the indigo plant into South Carolina, carried to England sufficient raw silk, raised in the vicinity of Charleston, to make lliree dresses. One of these she reserved for her self, and it was a few years ago in the pos session of her daughter, and temaikahJe fir its beauty and strength. The others were presented to the Princess Dowager of Wales, and to Lord Chesterfield,” At the late dinner given at New York, in honor of the arrival of the steam ships from England, among other interesting reminiscen ces of the rapid advance of improvement in that city, Philip Hone, Esq. stated that he re membered when the uncle of alderman Ben son, and his partner set out, on the same day, one for Albany, t‘ie other for Bristol. Eng.— They both arrived at their destinations on the same day, which was the 16th af’tgr their de-~ parture. The trip to Albany now occupies ten hours. So much for steam.
