The celebration of this anniversary, at the City Hall, by the members of Mr*. Moisc’s Institution, was attended with its usual interest. An im mense crowd were assembled, who seemed happy in witnessing tho enjoyment of youth, beauty and innocent;. It was, indeed, no sacrifice to for sake the ordinary bustle of every-day life, to re pair to a spot where so many bright and joyous creatures had assembled, to wear the garlands en twined by affection, and which were emblemati cal of their own loveliness and purity. The chsir •f Stale was placed in a central situation, and when the chosen May-day Queen advanced to occupy it, her appearance was welcomed by a choir ofglal voices in the following song; BrighfMaid of May ! We bail thee! wc hail thee, On this auspicious day ; See how surrounding Tha varied seasons move, Thy fame resounding The object of their love. [nowin aims strew nowcas.] Thy path now ia brighter, Thy tread shall be blighter,J For flowtels strew thy way Thou Flora of tho day, [noes cbowss tux acEEB.j Bright Queen of May !

Thy path now is brighter, Thy tread shall be light nor, For flowrots atrow thy way, Thou Flora of tho day. United voices bail thee, United voices hail thee, United voices hail thee Queen of May. The seasons and months, the old and new year, Flora and Hope, were personated by young la dies, who. were dressed in colours to suit the character they represented. Each bore a banner of white satin appropriately decorated, The first address to the Queen was made by Hope, (Miss 8.

The melancholy days are come, tho saddest of the year, Os wailing winds, and naked woods, and meadow s brown, and sera, Heaped in the hollows ol the grove, the withered leaves lie dead, Tiiey rustic to the eddying gust, and to tho rabbit's tread.

Where ore the flowers, tho fair young flowers, that lately sprung and stood In brighter light and softer airs, a beaulious sister hood ! Alas 1 they oil arc in their graves; the gentle race offlowers Are lying in their lowly beds, with tho fair and good ot ours. The min is falling where they lie, but the cold No vember rain, Calls not, from out the plowing earth, the lovely ones again.

WINTER BT MISS L. CAMFIBLn. From Laplands hills, on an icicle car, A gift from my autocrat subject, tho czar, In return for my aid to his ancestor, when I defeated the greatest of leaders, and men; By reindeers borne on, of such courage and blood, That they|bounded alike over mountain and flood, I come to unite with the year—ruling powers, To encircle the brow of our Fav’rile with flowers, Our sceptres to yield, and our homage to pay, XV Pheobus* young daughter, the bright Queen of Mu}' • Through the ijonlhs that have flown, while creation has slept, My watch, with the sentinel stars, has been kept, To preserve, not destroy, as tho thought!? l3 * sup pose, The beauties which nature delights to disclose. I observed, with regret, that a languor and gloom, Eflfects of exhaustion, pervaded Iho bloom And the verdure of earth; and to rescue from death, I stopped, for a season, the summeis hot breath, And veiled this fair realm in my mantio of frost, That no embryo blossom or fruit might ho lost. The mother whoso brow, blending marble and snow, Bends over her child, which lies sleeping below, Though warmed by a spirit sent down from above May seem all devoid of devotion and love; So Winter, stern bending o’er mountain & plain, May seem with a rigor, relentless, to reign, Yet comes, like a mother, to guard and to shield, The grove and the garden, the forest and field; When, refreshed by repose, with now gioncs they bloom, "As beauty immortal awakes from the tomb.” The Queen then made the following address. QUEEN OF MAY, BT MISS FRANns WHATLXT, In the limited range of our juvenile studies, we have met with the history of Queens who ascen ded their thrones in all the pomp and circum stance of hereditary grandeur—whose brows were oppressed with massive tiaras wrought by mercenary art—and whose pathway was strewn with human blossoms crushed and trampled down in their headless career. I cannot but smile when I contrast my state with one of these—or com pare this our mimic pageant with that of real ma jesty. Yet I rejoice in the past oral simplicity of my el ctivc elevation, and would rather he the Liege of loyal innocence, ushered into authority hy hope, and destined to monarchize a single day, than to wield for life a transmitted sceptre over a trembling multitude. The gems of my coronet have never been dimmed dy tbe tears of toil— "bright, pure from Floral mine” they eclipse the brilliant fossil-flowers that twine the temples of royalty. And what Italian loom can emulate the blue and fleecy firmament that now ’ocr canopies youi happy sovereign? Would any hers ex change the ermine of a spotless heart for that which interlines the purple vesture ? Nol not one. Let us then remember my young friends I that there is a moral regalia to which we may laudably aspire—a wisdom more precious far i than rubies, which with the aid of our excellent preceptress we may all attain—that respect to her and our parents—clemency to our dependents, furbearsnee with regard to our mutual frailties and gralituto to our Creator, are jewels far more decorative than those contained within imperial caskets ((dressing Hope.) It has ever been youraim to represent life as a perpetual May day—iu spring and summer thrill, with rapture, as you carol forth your lark-like melodies, nor mark how time is brushing the fairy-gold from the wings of hei butterflies—nr shaking them//- ei of the loveliest roses from his chrystal hour glass, Autumn beholds you pluming yourself for flight, yet caressingly clings to your shadow when no longer blest with yous beam. Even winter mistaking the echo for the spirit of your song is often deluded into a dream of renewed youth. Thus the seasons of existence close, while you justify your classic attributes, and prove a counterpoise fur all its evils. You have not crowned me for the Jirst time this day—l liave worn a chaplet of your wreathing on many other occasions. In temporal Hope I confide for the gifts of fame, friendship, and felicity, to be enjoyed by our gentle inslruclicss as well as ourselves. On spiritual Hope I rely for their ex tension even unto immortality. Having concluded, a baud of music was heard, Whose lively notes attested how cheerfully its voluntary subjects yielded tho tribute due to worth and excellence. 80/ne waved their ban ners in token of their joy, while others evinced their gladness by dancing. All adjourned to the Masonic Hail in the evening and continued this last amusement with buoyancy and elastic spir its. We need not enquire how many, in alter years, will recur to the innocent amusements of this May-day festival with a melancholy pleas ure, or how often fancy will wander back to the recollections inspire! by its return. Time will bring convincing proof that the delights of this day had a zest which subsequent pleasures will scarcely equal, even though imagination may now gililjthe futurity of every sharer in them, with the brightest rays of nope and expectation.

We regret to learn that tbe buildings ofj the Manuel Labour School, connected with the Fur man Institution in Fairfield District, were con sumed by fire on Monday morning last , a calam ily the more to be deplored, as the Institution was after many difficulties, in successful opera tion, and in a prosperous condition. We under stand that every eflori will be used to avoid the necessity of suspend ng tho Exercises of the School ; and it is Imped, that at the meeting of the Board of Trustees which will beheld next week, means may be devised to effect so desirable an oijecl. —The Charleston Mercury, Spatk catchers in locomotive engines are so useful that il is surprising they are not brought into general requisition.

The gentleman further informs us that the minds of the people were greatly exci ted at the measure of the United States irt rela , lion to their affairs.

Monday, May I. We are still in the midst of the revolutionary procraa in money matiera On Saturday many of the laucy and uank stocks rose, but as it was settling dsy, the advance will hardly stand. —It i« highly probable that ihey will recede ail ibis week. Fanures also continue, and the aggregate of houses that tell last week, are nearly, il not quite as great as any week during the revulsion. — There were no overgrown houses among them, but some were large enough. .. , Since the large meeting in Masonic Hall, and the expected meetings throughout to country, the pressure is gradually running into a general and universal panic. Those large speculators and overtraders who have tailed, would fain persuade the community that the whole city and country are bankrupt. We dl! not believe it, because we have the evidence before our eyes of a healthy and active business in all the middling interests of life, that have conducted their affairs on proper principles. Last week there was a very lively tea sale—and among all the articles that has not become the objects of fecent speculaions, thiAe is lit le overtrading and no extreme press nre. Cotton lands, real estate, pa per money,tobacco, stocks, flour, grain foreign dry goods, ard a few other articles have engrossed the recent mania. All these various branches of trade are therefore in the midst of a terrible crisis—but the great mass of tile community are still alive and industri ous. A revulsion in so many branches of trade is, howevet, felt in all others to a certain extent. Consumption is diminished and custom cast off. Il is now said that the United States Bank will Hot accede to the proposition of the Bank of En gland. Wc understand that this resolution has been taken by the U, 3. Bank, from a belief that the Bank of England has already withdrawn all aid from the American bankers in London. The advances made hy the' Bank of England, and their proposition transmitted to this country for the U. S. Bank, were based on the belief that no such scries of failuies would take place here as wo have seen. It is, therefore, the opinion of the U. S. Bank that, ere this time, the explosion has taken place across the water, —hence their refusal to accede to a proposition to draw on England, on a condition which they cannot meet. The specie is in the country, but it is not under the control of the banks. Even specie is still flowing in, in stead of going out. During the last few weeks, we perceive that tho following sums have been imported and exported from the ports name. Purls. Imported. Exported, New York, $240,000 $124,000 New Orleans, 449,000 Boston, 35,000 $724,000 $124,000 By this it appears that there is a balance in our favor sf $600,000. There is, however, cer tain quantities exported which never reach the Custom House. Neatly all the gold that goes to England is transmitted by private conveyance. t'oliiii2ibi<i ShevilPs Sale.
