COMMUNICATE I>. A STRAIN OF MI/SIC. Alone I wander’d ‘neath the trees, To listen to the sighing breeze. ’Twas eve; the sun’s toft sinking beams Had Jit the Earth with golden gleams; Had given the flowerets perfumed dew, The diamond’s flash, the ruby’s hue; Had ting’d the cleuds with opal light— And nature smiled in calm delight. I started; on the scented air There broke a sound so soft and clear, So wild—so deep—it left a strain Os yearning, fascinating pain. It passed like fairy dreams of youth, Which fade before stern, bitter Truth; So transiently the tones were given, ’Twas like a scattered strain from heaven: It seemed such sounds as stars might sing, Or the rustling of an angel’s wing. Why came it there at that sweet hour? To enchant the winds—to charm the flower? To cause the leaflets (murmuring low,) To bid their music cease? Ah^no. I climbed upon a rock all hung With roses, that in its fissures clung. Beneath the jutting rock so drear, A streamlet poured its waters clear; 1 bent me o’er the tiny bay, And on its waves a white swan lay; His snowy heart was stained; a dart Had pierced the proud bird’s bleeding heart; He lifts his wings, ho opes his eyes, Hings one more gentle strain, ami dies. _ PERL A Sketch for a National Platform. The official proceedings of the Democratic State Con ventiou of Georgia, elsewhere published, are o unusual importance and significance. To the position assumed by that Convention of Southern men, Northern Constitution al Democrats cannot but accord a general approval. For our part, we have carefully read through the resolutions, and, with the exception of the oue which “damns with a laiut praise,” indeed, the Pierce Administration, yet still makes use of language toward it which will be construed into an indorsement, we could vote for every one of them with a hearty good will. These resolutions in brief lay down a platform upon Slavery questions, which we hope to see indorsed at the next National Democratic Presidential Convention, to b# held at Cincinnati. A better one fer these times could not ba put together. Let us synopsize it. 1. The Union, secondary only to the State rights it secures. 2. The non-aggression by Congress upon the institution of Slavery anywhere, iu Territories, States, or the District of Columbia. 3. The maintenance of the Fugitive Slave Law as it is. 4. The principle enunciated in the Nebraska Kansas Bill, of the right of all Territories to frame their own domestic institutions in their own way, without the dicta tion of Congress. 5. The right of new States to admission into the Fed* oral Union at the proper time and in the proper manner, without reference to whether their Constitutions are or are not slaveholding. fi. Opposition to the proscriptive principles and the se cret organization of the Know Nothing Order. 7. The annexation of Cuba, as a matter of national well being. The time is at hand when the National Democratic party of the whole Union must have a common platform upon which to stand, and these propositions seem to us so sensible, so self-evident, and so universal and anti-sec tional in their scop*—so entirely in accordance with those which the Old Guard in this State, under all disadvantages, and in the face of all proscriptions, have maintained—that we invoke their approval by the National Convention of our party in 1856, as furnishiug the true basis for unity among all who would be ot us and with us in the effort to Ly these exciting and dangerous questions and to keep them at rest while our nation pursues her march to great ness and prosperity under the guidance of Democratic Republican principles, and under the administration of sound, patriotic and true men—such as we trust that Con vention will give us. — N.

Died, in this vicinity, on the 20th of June, 1855, Mrs. Johanna Fredrika Gittenger, in ihe 72d year of her age. She was born in the kingdom of Wertemberg, where she remained until 1850, when she emigrated to this country. In early life she embraced the religion of the Biblennd join ed the Lutheran Church, of which she remained a faithful and consistent member through life. She maintained her Christian character in all the various relations of life, and was loved most by those who knew’ 1 her best. But alas! death came, and with all her charms ! and excellencies as a friend, a mother, a Christian, she is | gone; her place is now vacant around the family hearth- | stone, and in the house of prayer. Her voice is hushed in ; the silence of death; her breast heaves no more with sor- j row,and far from ihe land of her fathers and the home of i her childhood, she has found a resting place among strang> j ers. Yet, she has left in her life of devoted piety, bright! and satisfactory evidence that she has gone from the sorrow j of earth to the joys of heaven. “Yet again we hope to meet thee. When this day of life is fled; j Then in Heaven with joy to greet thee, Where no farewell tear is shed.” W. D. Shea. | gin Tribute ct Respect.

But a lew days j since he was in our midst, lull ol hope and vigor, with the ; prospect of long life and many days of happiness; but, alas! ‘ he has been taken from us, and his body now rest? in the j silent tomb, while his spirit has flown to add one more to the list of those who form the Grand Council above, over whom our Celestial Father presides. j Be it therefore Resolved, That Oglethorpe Lodge, of which he was a member, wear the usual badge oi mourn ing for thirty days. Resolved, That we sympathise with his bereaved parents and aflheted relatives, and extend to them our heaitfelt | sympathy for their irreparable loss.

Two bottles of Carter’s Spanish Mixture cur ed him, and, in an editorial notice as above, they bear tes timony to its wonderlul effects, and say their only regret is, that all suffering with diseases of the blood are ot aware of the existence of such a medicine.
