I came, but but they haJ passed away, Tiie fair in form, the pure in mind, And like a stricken deer astray, Where all are strange, and none a e kind Kind to the worn—the wearied soul, That pants and struggles for repose, O ! that my steps had reached th gaol Where earthly sighs and sorrows close. Years have passed o’er me like a dream That leaves no trace on memory’s page; I look around me, and 1 seem Some relic of a former age. Alone, as in a stranger ciime, Where stranger voices meet my ear, I mark the lagging course of time, Without a wish—a hope—a fear. Yet I had hopes, and they are fled ; And I had fears—were all too true— And wishes too, but they arc dead— And vi hat have I wi h life to do ? ’Tis but to bear a weary load I may not, dare not cast away, And sigh for one small still abode. Where I may sleep as well as they. As they, the loveliest of their race, Whose glassy tombs my sorrows steep, Whose worth my sou’ delights to trace, Whose very loss ’tis sweet to weep. To weep beneath the silent moon, With none to chide—to hear—to sec— Life can bestow no dearer boon, On one whom death disclaims to be free. I leave a world that knows me not, To hold communion with the dead ; And fancy consecrates the suot Where fancy’s choicest dreams are shed. I see each shade, all silvery white, I hear each spirit’s melting sigh, I turn to clasp those forms of light, And the pale morning chills my eye. But soon the last pale morn shall rise, The lamp of lif beams feebly now: And stranger hands shall close these eyes, And soothe this damp and dewy brow. Unknown l lived—so let me cite; No stone or monumental cross Tell where hi? mouldering ashes lie, Who sought for gold, and found it dross. THE THUNDER STORM. BY GEORGE D. PREITICE. I was never a man of feeble eourage. There are few scenes either of human or elementa ry strife, upon which I have not looked with an eve of daring. I have stood in the front of battle, when swords were gleaming and circling around me like fiery serpents of the air—l have sat on the mountain pinnacle, when the whirlwind was rending its oaks from their rocky clefts and scattering them piece meal to the clouds—l have seen these things with a swelling soul, that knew not, that recked not of danger—but there is some thing in the thunder’s voice that makes me tremble like a child. I have tried to over come this unmanly weakness; I have called pride to my aid ; I have sought for moral courage in the lessons of philosophy—but all in vain; at-the first low moaning of Ihe dis tant cloud, my heart shrinks, quivers, and dies within me. My involuntary dread of thunder had its origin in an incident that occurred when I was a child often years. I had a little cousin, a girl of the same age with myself, who was the constant companion of my childhood. Strange that alter the ! apse of almost a score of years that countenance should be so familiar to me. I can still sec the bright young creature, iter large eve flashing like a beautiful gem, her free locks streaming as in joy upon the sun rue gale ; tjnd her cheek glowing like a ruby through a wreath of transparent snow. Her voice had the melody and the joyousness of a bird; and, when she bounded over the wooded hill or the fresh green valley, shouting a glad answer to every voice of nature, and clapping her hands in the very ecstacv of young existence, she looked as if breaking away like a freed nightingale from the earth, and going off where all things were beautiful and happy like her. It was a morning in the middle of August. The little girl had been passing some days at my father’s house, and she was now to return home. Her path lay across the fields, and I gladly became the companion of her walk. I never knew a summer morning more beau tiful and still. Only one little cloud was visi ble, and that seemed as pure and white, and peaceful, as if it had been the incense smoke of some burning censer of the skies. The leaves hung siient in the woods, the waters of the bay had forgotton their undulations, the flowers were bending their heads, as if dreaming of ihe rainbow and the dew, and the whole atmosphere was of such soft and luxurious sweetness, that it seemed ‘a cloud of roses, scattered down by the hand of a Peri’ from the far off’ gardens of Paradise. Tiie green earth and tiie blue sea lay abroad in their boundlessness, and the peaceful sky bent over and'blessed them. The little crea ture at my side was in a delirium of happi ness,, and her clear sweet voice came ringing upon the air as often as she heard the notes of a favorite bird or some strange and lonely flmver in her wanderings. The unbroken and almost supernatural tranquility continued un til nearly noon. Then Ibr the first time the indications ol an approaching tempest were manifest. Over the summit of a mountain, at the distance of about a mile, thejblds of a dark cloud became suddenly visible, and at the same instant, a hallow roar came down upon the winds, as if it had been the sound of waves in a rocky cavern. The cloud roll ed out like a banner-fold upon the air, but still the atmosphere was calm and leaves as motionless as before, and there was not even a quiver upon the sleeping waters to tell of the coming hurricane. To escape the tempest was impossible. As the only resort, we fled to an oak that stood at the foot of a tall and ragged precipice. There we remained and crazed almost breathlessly upon the clouds, marshaling themselves like bloody giants in the sky. The thunder was not frequent, but every burst was so frightful that the young creature who stood by me shut her eyes convulsively, clung with des perate strength to my arm, and shrieked as if her heart would break. A few minutes and the storm was upon us. During the height of its fury, the little girl silently raised her linger to the precipice that towered above us. As I looked up, an amethystine flame was quivering upon its grey peaks, and the next moment the clouds opened, the rock-: toileted to their foundations, a roar like a groan of the universe filled the air, and I felt myself blinded and thrown I knew not whith er. Ho iv long I remained insensible I can not tell, but when consciousness returned, the violence of the tempest was abating, the roar of the winds was dying in the distant tree tops, and the deep tones of the cloud were coming in fainter and fainter murmers from the eastern hills. * I arose and looked tremblingly and almost j deliriously around me. She was there, the | dear idol of my infant love, stretched out up* ion the wet green earth. After a moment of irresolution, I went up and looked upon her. The handkerchief upon her neck was slight lv rent, and a single dark spot upon her bosom told where the pathway of death had been. At first I clasped her to mv breast with a cry of agony and then laid her down and gazed into Iter face, almost with a feeling of*calmness. Her bright dishevelled ringlets j * clustered sweetly around her brow; the look : <ri terror had laded from her lips and an in : lam smile vva3 pictured most beautifully there; the red rose tinge upon her cheek was as lovely as in life; and, as I pressed it to my ? own, the fountain of tears was opened, and i wept as if my head were waters. I have but a dim recollection of what followed. I only know that I remained weeping and mo tionless till the corning on of twilight, and that I was taken tenderly by the hand, and led away where I saw the countenances of parents and sisters. Many years have gone bv upon their wings ot light and shadow, but the tjeenes I have portrayed still come over me, at times with terrible distinctness. The old oak yet stands at the base of the precipice, but its limbs are black and dead ; and its hollow trunk look ing upwards to the sky as if ‘ calling to the clouds fiir drink,’ is an emblem of rapid and noiseless decay. A year ago I visited the spot, and the thoughts of by gone years came mournfully back to me, thoughts of the little innocent being who fell by my side like some beautiful tree of spring rent up by the whirl wind in the midst of its blossoming. But I rernembeied, and oh, there was joy in ihe memory, 1 hat she had gone where uo light ning slumbers in the folds of the rainbow cloud, and where the sun-lit waters are never broken by the storm-breath of Omnip otence. SARMINS BY FATHER TOM MAGUIRE. A series of interesting articles, under the general head of ‘ Recollections of our lasi Parish Minister,’ is in the course of publica tion in Frazer’s (London) Magazine. In the November number of that miscellany, we find the two ‘ Sarmins ’ annexed, which are given as specimens of a certain order of Pulpit Elo quence. FATHER TOM MAGUIRE TO Ills FLOCK.

The intrepid bravery and tender affections of one ol these Indians, are strikingly verifi ed in the following anecdote :—Having taken refuge for some time in the city of St. Au gustine, and got the name of Peter, he re moved his residence to St. Anastasia’s Island, which makes the harbor of the city, was em ployed 33 a hunter bv Mr. Fish, an English gentleman, who owned that Island, and who gave it celebrity by ihe culture of the sweet Orange. Peter being absent, a party of his enemies crossed the river, surprised his hab itation, and murdered his wife and two chil dren. On his return he did not hesitate a moment n the course to pursue ; he fastened up his house containing the dead, repaired to Mr. Fish s dwelling near by, to borrow a gun that Mr. Fish had made with a large bore, expressly for shooting ducks in large flocks. In this Peter put an uncommon load of buck shot, and getting into his canoe, proceeded up the river, all alone, about six miles to a creek on the main, as though instinct had pointed out to him the wav they went. He liad not ascended the creek far, when a dis tant smoke, curling above the forest, apprised him of an Indian camp. He landed, and taking his course through the woods of a hos tile country, discovered four Indian men sit ting on a log side by side, and a fifth near by employed in cooking. He circled round so as to bring the four in a range, clept up close, fired, threw down his gun, and rushed up with his tomahawk. The report, the fall of four Indians, and Peter’s presence, armed with such a weapon, and not very pleasant, coun tenance, were so sudden and impressive, that the one who was cooking neither attempted defence or flight, and became an easv prav to vengeance. By this time lie found that one of the fallen was but wounded, and was endeavoring to reach his arms, but Peter had the advantage in being already armed. On searching, he found the scalps of his wife and children stretched and hung out to dry, which he brought off, with several of his property they had stolen, some of their arms, and the scalps of the five Indians he had killed—the greatest of all tropics, in the con ceptions of the Indians—returned home and buried his wife and children the same even ing, and literally pined to death over their grave. This anecdote I i;ad from Mr. Fish, who ponted out to me poor Peter’s grave. The following instances of Seminole hero ism, however, are worth mentioning. In a skirmish between a party of Spanish troops and Indians, I ohopalmy, a chief, was severe ly wounded by a load of buck shot. He goes over it for some years, but becoming disordered from the effects of his wounds, and it being the opinion of his friends that it would at length occasion his death, he ex claimed, ‘lt not lie said that I was killed by a Spaniard ! —and deliberately hung him self. Penhnjo, a voting man of respectable stand ing, had for years sought, retaliation of an other Indian, who had killed one of Ids near relations—a forfeit, invariably claimed in such cases, whether death had been acciden tally inflicted, or by design, and the oon-ob tninance of which entails disgrace on the | family of the deceased, while it disturbs his ; spirit in ihe distant country to which it has ! gone. Penhajo had male several long trav i els in vain ; he could procure no tidings of : his enemy. His mother became impatient, ■ and upbraided him in public with want of j energy in seeking the tribute due 10 her de- I parted spirit, and her feelings. She called l him an old woman—the most indignant epi ; thet of the Indian language that can he ap i plied to a warrior; (the harangues of old ! women command great respect.’ and have ! much influence on youth.) Penhajo, having j coolly heard her through, brought out his rifle, | and replied that there was nothing now left for him hut to prove, by sending his spirit to keep company with the deceased, that he had done all he could, and that he was not an old 1 woman, but a warrior; he should, therefore, leave to someone of his younger, but more fortunate relatives, to seek tlie revenge fate had denied to him. And immediately putting his toe to the trigger, launched himself into eternity. During the invasion of East Florida, in ISl‘2, while the city of St. Augustine was besieged, the enemy marched to the reduc tion ol the Indian settlements of Alachub, and had entrenched himself in that section of the province. King Payne called a council ot his principal warriors, but finding that dis may at their hopeless situation pervaded the whole, lie thus addressed them— ‘ It is true, we have no assistance to expect from the Spaniards, no quarter from the enemy, who is too powerful for us to withstand; such, then, as wish to move off and abandon iheir all, may do so, and ought to do so quickly. But it shall not be said that the son of Secof fee deserted his father’s grave. To-morrow 1 will attack their entrenchment with such as may follow me. I may tall, hut not with disgrace. About one hundred followed him to the field; they assailed the enemy three times, and were as often beaten back; and finding ihat he could not bring on his men the fourth time, he rode up and down within the fire of the enemy, courting support from one side, or death from the other, and in tliisaet was shot from his horse. His men then rush ed to the recovery of his body, which they effected and fled precipitately.— St. Augus tine Herald.

D.—A few months since, an advertisement appeared in the Phil adelphia newspapers, stating that a dentist, by the name of Humphreys, possessed the power of extracting teetli with very little force or pain, and by a mode peculiar to him self. Conceiving that he possessed an improved form of forceps, or some similar instrument, it excited but little attention on my part. But when I was informed, bv Mr. Boren, that another dentist, and the origin al discoverer of the new method, (Dr. Cald well,) had taken out a very difficult tooth for him, withont pain, and that the new method consisted in cutting with a penknife some thing which held the tooth in its place, I re solved to scrutinize the matter closely. Accordingly, I sought Dr. Caldwell’s ac quaintance, but found him determined to keep his discovery a secret. I then procur ed a jaw, and making a very careful dissec tion, satisfied myself of the existence of a ligament. ‘I his consists of short, strong, ligamentous fibres existing on one side of the human tooth only, and unites the neck of the took to the edge of the alveolar process. I he fibres arise from the edge of the alveolus between the teeth, and proceeding forwards in the case of the molars, and inwards in the case of incisors, is inserted into the neck of the tooth, not quite the sixteenth of an inch Irom the edge of the enamel. Its size (and of course its strength) varies with the class of teeth to which it belongs. In the incisores, it is a narrow tape-like hand—in ihe cuspi dati and bienspidati, it is wider, and in the molares, it is as wide ns the neck of the tooth and very r-trong. A few of its fibress are blended with the gum in its neighborhood, and thus we may account for its occasional laceration when a tooth is extracted. Its ad hesion to the tooth is stronger than to the jaw, and, if not cut, it is commonly dragged out with the tooth. Its ligamenlmis charac ter is very distinct, the fibres being white and shining, like tendon. After making ibis dissection, I applied to Dr. Caldwell to remove a large molar, which had given me great trouble for two or three years, and although my teeth had always yielded with difficulty, he removed the one in question with great ease and very little pain. I have seen several teeth which were ex tracted by him, and am convinced that he possesses a tact in severing ihe ligament and removing the tooth which will give him pre eminent success. Young men beware.— We heard of an old gentleman onr who had three daughters, a'! o! ivhom were marriageable*. A you nor buck went a wooing the youngest, and finally got her consent to take him ‘ for better or for wo-se.’ Upon application to the old fellmv for his consent, he flew’ into a violent rage, declaring that no man should ‘pick his daughters in that way,’ and if he wished to get into his family, he might marry the old est, or leave thg house forthwith.— Carolina Gazette. Pretty Good. —A western editor declares that some of the young womm who pass !i village in the nik*, on the river, are perf-ct divinities. He means, says a northern paper, that they are ark-angels.
