MISCELLANEOUS- | (From the Baltimore Republican and Argus.] | •CONCERT OF THE AMEPJCO-LOAFEROS SOCIETY. ' | It is a fact often observed that everyg -tliino- has a certain mania attached to it.O why°or wherefore, has never been decid | ed. For instance, if we have had a band! of ‘‘Virginia Serenaders” or “Real Con | gos” in the city, you hear nothing for weeks, and sometimes months after, but 4 ‘Dandy Jim,” or “Old Dan Tucker,” whistled and sung by every boy, white and black, in the city. If we have had a “Circus Company,” why you see a small chap standing on his head or hands against the side of every corner you pass; and if we have a “Theatrical Company,” why you hear Shakspeare spoken by high and low, in every bar-room you chance to drop; and so it is with every thing else that may be novel for the time being.— Some time since, Concerts were all thr go, and of course, as a matter of necessa ry consequence, “Bellini,” “Hayden,’' and “Handel” were in the mouths ol the multitude. There is in existence in this city, an association by the name of the “Americo 2 Loafero Society,” composed of men not | remarkable for either energy, industry oig temperance; but who have a great deal of| a certain kind of talent, which it is theirs wont to display in many ways, one ofg which we will attempt to describe. Ag short time after the concert season wash over, this club resolved to give a Concert,g and engaged the large and comfoitables hall of the “Popodean” for that purpose ! Being polite and generous, they an invitation to a number ofgentlemen tog be present, ourselves among the rest, and| knowing in our own minds we should en-g joy ourselves to our lieart’s content we! were present on the occasion. The Concert was led by Senor Snuffle,! assisted by the first musical talent in the country, such as Senora Squeak, Senors Rumtuddle and Trombone. We will give the pieces as recited and sung by the programme, which was prepared by the * “Americo Loafero Society” themselves, ij under the immediate charge of Senor | Snuffle-. PART FIRST. Song— “ Some to meet, in the crowded street, R And spin a yarn so free, But acosey chair, away from the air, And a life in the house for me.” Sung by Senor Snuffle, and rcceivedS with the most rapturous applause. Weg heard a member remark, “Blow myH h’eyes if ’taint superb, by fol tiling., tip-top,■ and can’t be knocked under.” The next was the ballad, “Old Bacl.B Bay.” ‘‘Over the mill-dam’s wooden rail, , Many an hour I’ve whiled way. i Smelling the rich and perfumed gale, Which comes across the old back bay.” 3 Sung by Senor Snuffle and Senora I Squeak, and received very well; one old sentimental chap sung out, “Them’s my | sentiments, oh I it’s so melicious.” The whole association then sung “The 3 Bull Frog.” “Mud croaker'—swamp digger!— Dirt del ver!—be still. See!—men with pickaxes, Descending the hill! — Then cease thy dull music, And hushed be thy cry,— Ho! reptile—ho! bull frog, They’ve doomed thee to die !” This was illustrated with a few re-H marks connected with the incident on J which the song is founded. At its close,S tile whole assembly arose and gave three?! tremendous croaks, ala Bull Frog. \Ve*| also noticed several titnes during the sing-!| ingof the piece, several ofjhe older fiogß stickers of the club, imitating the dialect common to these denizens of mill-si ponds and swamps, and more than onci || our ears were saluted with, “turn ’emg out,” - “bloody-nouns,” “two foot deep,”|3 “butter-u bu-hu,” &c. A “Cantata”—“The. Maniac,” wasP next sung, after having been with the following remarks:—“Someg years since a gentleman of fortune wah || induced to enter a fashionable hotel, bva the solicitation of some friends, and im-B bibe the spirituous compound. The moreU the unfortunate gontlcman poured down,fl the more he desired, until the landlords was finally obliged to refuse his applica | tion for drink, lest he might become whatS is vulgar!}’ called intoxicated, by the tool frequent use of the same.” This occur | rence gave rise to the following stanzas “Stay, landlord, stay, and give. I pray, Another glass of punch to me, ■ For oh, although 1 am not corned, Full well I know I soon shall be. He quits the bar—he locks the door— Ah ! would this day had never dawned— I cannot get another glass, Although not corned—although nA corned!'' E This was loudly encored, and appeared! to tickle the fancy of the majority of the! assembly very much; at any rate, there® being an intermission before the seconds part came on, all hands adjourned to as Restaurant close by, “to whet their whis-j ties,” and revive their spirits. The com f pany soon assembled, and the concert pro B oeeded. FART SECOND. Song—“ The Old India Rubber Shoe,”3 sung by Senor Trombone, who prefaced! it with the information, that it had been’ sung in the presence of over three thous and blacks, who loudly encored it,-and| compelled him to repeat it. We havt| not time nor space to write it out, or wet would do so, as it would be highly inter esting. Song—“ The Dandaleon Green,” — Words by the Bard of Baltimore. “Dainty flower, with head of gold, Creeping o’er the cow-pastures old ; Springing from a verdant scion, A rare old plant is the dandaleou. A good piece, and well sung by tlve society. Cantata—“ The Drunken Sow,’’written? expressly for Senor Snuffle, by a member: of the “-Americo Loafero Society;” proof! positive of the talent collected in one cra-| nium. Senor Shuffle prefaced it with the! following remarks: “Never shall I forget the sensations Is experienced upon looking upon this tin I fortunate animal. They had-been feed I ing him upon that inebriating article of| food, runmeherries—and his ti'uly melan g choly situation filled the beholder with! sentiments of solemnity and pity.” The circumstance gave rise to the fol-? lowing cantata: “And fee staggered about that olden stye, | Thespirit of rum-cherries dimming his eye, VS hile the night-wind whistled a mournful sound, | And the little pigs grunted in sympathy round. I Hark! hark! the pail creeks—list again!—it is o’er,l And the porker reels on ward—the clock strikes four! j I his piece, like the “maniac,” was most! rapturously applauded, and more than one] swore that it was inimitable, while others’ blgrunted a sympathetic response to its nie-B ■lancholy notes. ffiSong— “The Old Toddy Stick. K “For full two seasons at the bar, S I’ve mixed cocktail and punch, .g And many a liquor helped to foam, E At evening lounge and morning lunch. ’ g j? An excellent song, and received with* | great eclat. | p Song—“ The -Old Bell Crowned Hat, g i by Senor Snuffle, the whole society join | ing in the chorus. £ “I love it, I love it, and who shrill frown, Because I still sport, that old bell-crown’ What though the sugar-loaf’s now tin- go, -K | And brimmers of late are selling but low ’ I’ll stick to the old one in spile of the town. p i For I love it, I luve.it, that old bell-crow n. g The regular programme having i gone through with, at the earnest soliciia g, I lion and unanimous desire of the audtence.| i a member sung the following lyric, to theg ; most deafenin', applause : Ait— “Oft in the Slil.’y Bight. S “Oft in the stilly night, When cats go out a courting, g f I turn from left to right, » ,i Like some sea-monster snorting. S The barking dogs the croak ng frogs, ? The noisy cricket singing— g Sweet sleep destroys—their maddening noise, £ Still in my ears is singing. | 1 Oft in the, &c. I ; When I remember how » The bed-bugs gallop’d o’er me, £ Cold sweat deeps o’er my brow, And phantoms dance before me. $ I fed like one whose hopes are gone, Whose passion owns no bridle; K ? My noddle aches when daylight breaks, I feel quite suicidal! s I Oft in the, &c, E | Al the close of this, the assembly brokeg I up in a most admirable confusion, each® gwending his way to the nearest “cocktailg ! manufactory,” 1o drink long life and% I health to the members of the “Americoffi ■ Loafero Society,” which toast we mostg drink, believing that when itlfe i may become extinct, “we shall never look® upon its like again,” e We learn they propose giving another! concert soon, to which we have an invi-g tation, and of which we shall avail our-g selves, and report all that may transpired worthy of our pen. THE LAST LOOK OF BYROXL . | a series of intertalitu; recollections in Boston Atlas.} & 1 In the month of July, 1824, the body gLord Byron was brought from Missi’on g aghi to England, and on being landed from” □ he ‘Florida,’ was removed to the house ofg S-Sir Edward KnatchbuP, who then resi-S Sled in Great George street, Westrninis-S Iter. At the house of Sir Edward it lay® gin state for two days, and was visited byS ■hundreds of persons, who paid th ir lasig ■tribute to the genius of the mighty slum-S Iberer, by gazing on hiscoffiifi lid. Afle.,g gibe lyintf in state had term nattd, it warfi |ibund necessary to remove the body, for® | he purpose of placing it in a Loiter con-® jstructed leaden coffin than that which ibcen prepared in Greece. A friend ot’s Imine happened to know the land kindly offered to procure me admis-|l gsion to the chamber where the gif the body was to be effected—an oiFcr« gwhieh, 1 need not say, I gladly accepted.® ■ Accordingly on. the afternoon of theg ■eleventh of July, I proceeded to Sir El B ■ward Knatchbull’s, and found three or® Ifbur gentlemen, attractfd tbith r, like® ■myself, to witness the solemn face of lheg ■poet for the last time, ere it should be putg lupin the darkness of death. .Mr. Rogers,|| athe author of the “Pleasures of Memory’,”® I.llr. now Sir John Cam Hobhouse, andg |John Hanson Esq., (the two latter Lords gßyron’s executors ) and one or two oth-g gers, whose names 1 did not learn, wereg ■present. g 1 The body lay in the large drawing® groom, on the first story, which was hunga gin black cloth and lighted with w axj| ■candles. This was soon effected, and|3 ■when the last covering was removed, weln ■beheld the face of the illustrious dead, ra g “All cold, and all serene.” Fj | Were I tolivea thousand years, [ ■never, never forget that moment. ForS |years I had been intimate with the mind§| gos Byron. His wondrous works had|| |ihrown a charm around my daily paths,Q land with all the enthusiasm of vouth 1:3 ■had almost adored his genius. .With hisM ■features, through the medium of paint-E lings, I had been familiar from my boy-B a hood; and now far mote beautiful, eveiW. ? n death, than my most vivid fanev hadgj k-ver pic ured, there they lav in marbleg repose. . ' | t The body was not attired in that mostg| awful of habiliments—a shroud. It wasts wrapped in a blue cloth cloak, and the|| throat and head were uncovered. TheS K former was beautifully moulded. TheH s head of the poet was covered w ith e'erisped curling locks, slightly i .with grey hairs, especially over the tern gs « files, which were ample and tree frornji 8 hair, as we see in the portraits. The§ | face had nothing of the appearance or’7 I death about it—it was neither sunkenp nor discolored in the least, but of a dreadU: marble whiteness—the expression w as£ that of stern repose. ’ How c'assicallyw I beautiful was the curved upper lip and| | the chin. I fancied the nose appeared! I asif it was notin barinouy with the otherg I features; but it might possibly have been! alittledisfigured by the process ofembalm | g ing. '1 he forehead was high and broadl sa—indeed, the w hole head was extremely® Slarge—it must have bee n so to contain as Hbrain of such capacity. But what st ruck me most was the ex i Seceding beauty of the jrrolile, as I obser-l Hved it when the head was lifted, in the! of removing the corps. It was* gpevfect in its way, and seemed like al ■production of Phidias. Indeed, the face! gos the dead—so still, so sharply defined.* |and so marble like in its repose; f caught| gthe view of it but for a-moment; yet itS gwas long enough to have it stampeu ! upon| gmy memory as S“A tiling of beauty,’’ Which, poor Keats tells u , s ! a joy for-| j«ever.’ It is indeed a melancholy joy to| j me to have gazed upon the silent poet.—L | As Washington Irving says of the old| i sexton who crept into tiie vault where! f Shakspeare was entombed, and beh'elri| S there the dust of ages—‘lt was somr-thino| ■even to have seen the dust of Byron.’ k Among the persons engaged in’ tfie| ■performance of the office of removal, 1£ Quoted one—a tall, thin man, who spokeS ■little, and seemed absorbed in grief. Heg Swould scarcely allow any one to touch! Bthe corps—and, with hits- own hand, hes ■composed the head in its new restingl ■place. The words, ‘My dear Lordly fcFWere frequently uttered by him, while! ■performing his melancholy elut es. It was! ■ Fletcher —Byron’s faithful valet. Tliisj J«man afterwards told me the particulars ofl the noble Poet’s death, and gave me av lock of his hair. % Fletcher did not long! . survive his beloved master. [From the N. O. Picayum.] H SUPERSTITION OF THE TONKAWAYS. | « Almost every Indian tribe has some| estrange superstition, but that of the Ton-1 Kka ways of Texas is the most singular ofg real!. They imagined themselves rela-s Sated to the wolf—closely related tothis most i and sneaking of all the bruttj sjcrcation —and they say that in conversa i they with their fbur-legged| llrey have been warned that any| ■attempt to make a living in any otherwaya sSthan by hunting w ill entail death and ex | Hiermt-naricn upon their race.

Shave killed from the thefts of the wolf.| ®thus admitting that their relatives are not| gso honest as they might be. Recently.! !“’they say, one of their tribe killed a deerE and neglected the ceremony. On his re-| turn he found the wolves had carried oli|| his game, while others who had stuck tog the regular custom found their meat in-j safety. This was deemed proof conclu | glsive of the correctness of their belief, andl can induce them to aband n theirs customs and superstitions. || These facts w'ere recently made known® Qto th.e editor of the Texas National R. gis slier by Major Neighbors, the agent of thi 1 Kdifferent trites of Indians in Texas. 1 i<p alias been endeavoring to i duce all the® to turn their attention to agricul-E alural pursuits, and has been successful ing the Lipans, heretofore a wan-fe tribe, into the measure. Their|| is on the Cibolo, near the Sul-B igphur Springs, where they have forty acresp gofcorn planted, which is in a state of® ggreat forwardness, besides a quantity of§| gbeans, pumpkins and water-melons.—B gThey are represented to be contented® land happy in their new situation and® gquite industrious, and the ir example hasp gbeen forciilyset before the Tonkawavs® sby Ma jor Neighbors; but nothing can in-B aduce the latter to overcome their super-E |stition. We recently passed near theiip Scamp, in our trip to the buffalo gaud found the earth dug up in every direc-p ition as though by some small animal.—L |On enquiry, xve learned that the Tonksg-f gas they are called had been searching forp |some root which affords slight nutriment, |not finding game in sufficient quantity |their neighborhood to supply the |of hunger.

CHARLESTON, June 14.— Cotton —lt willbe| recollected that our review of the 7th inst. left theS Upland market ift a buoyant state, prices havings fulby recovered the momentary decline upon the unfavorable advices received from the oth-| er side by rhe Great Western and Cambria steamers. ® throughout Saturday last, although there was noS decided change in the general features of the mar-B ket, there, were those who were asking such highs prices, that buyers had,eitherto come to terms ora retire, and as they generally ( house the latter alter-Kj native, the operat ions of the dtty were consequent g ly limited. On Monday and Tuesday there was ;<» more general demand for the article than at theS close of the previous week, when holders sncceed-E ed in obtaining their demands, :tird before the clos’eS of the business on the latter day an |e. advance! I was established on the lower sorts, while prices ona the linerelassifications, which were in most; request.B went up a |c. per pound. 'l'he sales in the threcß days, as stated in our semi-weekly report, reachedS 5200 bales. It would seem, however, that, the pricesj paid thus eany in the week did not. suit the views® of those who held the bulk of the stock, as an es-S fort was made on Wednesday, to obtain even high-S e» rates, which drove buyers from the market, andl the firm position which sellers have since maintain » »ed, have brought the operations in Upland within S very narrow compass, ns the sales in the last threes S days do not exceed 1660 bales. The receipts sinceS Sour last reach 4396 bales, and the aggregate Sin the same time, foot up 6770 bales, as follows: 4® El bales at 54; 28 at5J; 78 at 54; 221 at 5’4; 93 at ss;g j£277 at 6; 303 at 64; 423 at 61; 57 at Cl; 763 at H 1223 at 6s; 1264 at 64; 430 at 64; 775 at 7; 10 at 7|;» |*3B4 at 74; 31)4 at 7s; and 127 bales-at 71 cts. per lb.g 8"“ We have advanced our quota* ions of Saturday lasts a |c. on all grades, and would refer to them for the® state of the market at the close of business.

Rice.— Theiehas been very little‘inquiry forthisg ■aarticle since our last; and although holders have ing Saone or two instances met buvers at a slight reduc- Mtian in order to close sales, we have no positive re- in prices to record, and would refer to otir for a fair criterion of the state of the pSilice marker.

I NOTICE TO COTTON SWILL say to the planters of Georgia and South Carolina, that I continue to carry on the manu gfacturing of Cotton Gins, in Crawfordville, Ga., •where 1 am prepared to manufacture them on vari- Sous plans to suit purchasers. 1 will give a minute gdescription of my best gins. My saws are of the sbest cast steel, and 10 inches in diameter, and I put fnine teeth to the inch; saw cylinder one and a half Sinch square. The breasts are all wrought, well gfaced with steel and very thick; the. brush is equal 4if not superior to any made, and runs on the anti gfriction plan. If persons should not like the anti sfriction plan, I make them with a very superior box, Iwhich will contain oil enough to last the gin three S lays, with a. steel screw in the end so as to prevent !t he saw’s rubbing the breast. Eit her of the above ’mentioned gins I will sell at $2.50 per saw, and gwarrant them to make as good cotton as any gins ■ made in the United States, and to gin a good quatf- Suty pprday. I willmake the plain gin of the same f material for $2 per saw, lhe saws 9 inches in diam seter, and warrant them to make equally as good 1 will frankly acknowledge that my old §make of gins were nothing like equal to the gins Nthat lam now making. Any person wishing one Tof the above mentioned gins will address the sub gscriberat Crawfordville, Ga.. and a gin of either of bthe above mentioned kinds will be delivered and to pt rfonu equal to the above recum smendations. ;i 1 will furtherstate to the planters my reasons for {"mentioningthat my breasts are all wrought. I have 4 tried the cast ribs and find them not equal to the sjwrought. In fully authenticating what I say re’a ?tive to the performance of my improved gins, 1 give J’below certificates from gentlemen who have used *'my gins for the last season. j Repairing will be done by special contract only, •’and as cheap as any gin maker in the Southern. All orders addressed to the subscriber will oreceive prompt attention. I w ill keep gins for sale at the principal ware -houses in Augusta. S. R. CRENSHAW, Crawfordville, Ga. Crawfordville. March 11, 1845. ij This is to certify that 1 purchased last fallone of i'S. R. Crenshaw's improved anti-friction cotton rgins, and said gin has fully come up to the recom- given to the gin. I can gin from 1000 to ■71200 pounds of cotton per day, and make good cot , ton, such as will command from } to 4 cent over filial of lhe common gin. GILCHRIST OVERTON. Greene County, Ga., March 25, 1845. ■j? This is to certify that I purchased a fifty saw an “ti-friction Gin of Mr. S. R. Crenshaw last Fall, Keach saw has one hundred and seventy-two teeth : which are very fine; the brush wheel has eighteen Prows of brushes; lhe gin runs very light, so much fso that one mule is sufficient to carry it without dis- Ificnlty. The cotton when ginned has toa conside- Kruble extent the appearance of having been curded rand so completely is the lint separated from th« ginotes that almost the whole of them drop down. I sdtave compared tlie cotton ginned by a Carver gin gwith mine, and it was decided by several persons gwhosaw the samples, that mine had fewer motes, sand was belter ginned in every respect. If Mr. sCrenshaw would make all his gins like mine, I Ewotild recommend all who want, gins to send to “Crawfordville, instead oftothe North or any wheru |else. F. W. CHENEY.
