THE LAMENT OP THE CHEROKEE.
We extract the following exquisit Parody on Camp
bell’s “Exile of Erin,” from a Magazine, the title page
of which has been lost In beauty and toucning pa
thos, it almost equals the original.
0, soft falls the dew, in the twilight descending,
And t&'l grows the shadowy hill on the plain ;
! And night o’er the far distant f-rest is bending,
Like the storm-spirit, dark, o’er the tremulous main;
But midnight enshrouds my lone heart in its dweh
ing,
A tumult of wo in my bosom is swelling.
And a tear, unbelitting the warrior, is telling
That Hope has abandoned the brave Cherokee 1
Can a tree that is torn from its root by the fountnir,
The pride of the valley, green-spreading and fair,
Cat; it flourish, removed to the rock of the mountain,
Unwarmed bv the sun, ancUunwatered by care?
Though Vesper behind her sweet dew- in bestowing,
No life-giving brook in its shadow is flo ring.
And when the chili winds of the desert are blowing.
So droops the transplanted and lone Cherokee!
Loved graves of my sires! have I left you for ever ?
How meltC' 5 my heart, when I bade you adieu !
Shall joy light the face of the Indian? —ah, never!
\\ bile memory sad has the power to renew.
As flies the fleet dear when the blood-hound isstarte.l,
So fled winged Hope from the poor broken-heart'".! ;
0, could she have turned, ere forever departed,
And beckoned with smiles to her sad Cherokee!
Is it the low wind through the wet willows r’sL’n.g,
That tills with wild y listening oar ?
Or ? s some hermit-rill, in the solitude gushing,
The Strange-playing minstrel, whose music I bear?
Tis the voice of my father, slow, solemnly stealing,
I see his dim form, by yon meteor, kneeling,
To the God of the white man, the Christian, appeal
ing,
He prays for the foe of the dark Cherokee 1
Great Spirit of Good, whose abode is the heaven,
Whose wampum of peace is the bow in the sky, ‘*
Wilt t’nou give to the wants of the clamorous raven.
Yet turn a deaf ear to my piteous cry ?
O’er the ruins cf home, o’er ray .heart’s desolation,
No more shaft thou hear my unblest lamentation :
For death’s dark encounter I make preparation,
He hears the last groan of the wild Cherokee!
Bachelors—like sour cider,
they grow more crabbed the longer they
are kept: and when they see n little mother,
they turn to vinegar at. once!”
PCP’ Hs who rroes to bed in anger has
the devil foi hs bed fellow.” A wag de
sires us to say that he knows a married man
who, though he goes to bed meek and gen
tle as a lamb, is in the same predicament.
O 3 An ignorant candidate for meffcnl
honors, having thrown himself almost int<>
a fever from his incapability of answering
questions, was asked by one of the censors
how he would sweat n parent lor the rheu
matism. * I would send him here to be ex
amined.”
DC? 3 Wa hingion Irving is much blamed
by the members of the Masonic fratcnvty
f.u ornitt'ng all notice of the connection of
Gen. Washington with the “mvstic tie,”
wlfle the records oflcdges of Virginia -how
that he was not only a “bright mason” but
much atr-ched to the fraternity. The Po
tomac Lodge sti 1 posse ses the ‘gavel”
used by Brother Washington when he laid
the corner stone of the Capitol, on the 21 t
day of September, 1703.
“Where’s Mr. Muff?” asked an no.
quaiiriance with a shawl round his shoul
ders, of Mr. Muff, who was shivering over
a dying fire. “Gone out. She and I take
turns now. She has the shawl to-day; to
morrow ’ll be my turn.” Shawled acquain
tance vamosed.
Tfhen a fellow first falls in ].>ve,
the sensation is like a hay bug crawling up
the leg ot his pantaloons. At least that’s
the way wo rutiered v,hon wo first squee
zed the hand of the gal we loved.
S^pT' 1 A negro woman, soon after having
experienced religion, stole a goose to make
merry with her consort from a neighboring,
plantation. Os course she was whipped
for the good of others ns well as of herself.
Soon after these circumstances, commun
ion was to take place in the neighborhood,
and Dinah prepared to go. Her mistress
remonstrated with her. and mentioned
the goose affair ns a sufficient reason fu
ller not to offer herself on such a holy oc
casion; to which she replied, 4v L">r, missus.
I ain’t gwi’>e to turn my back on my bres
sed Mass?., for no old goose !
An honest and true in the town of—,
standing beside the corpsexf her deceased
husband, bewailing in piteous tone-- hi.-
untimely departrsre, observed “it’s a ;!(v
he’s dead, for his teeth are as good iisVcer
they was.”
.4 Demonstration of the Leap Year. —A
rather singular and amusing occurrence
took place near CochranviHe. Chester Coun
ty* Pfl** a few weeks since. A Mr. Bach
tell, from Medina. Ohio, was introduced to
a Miss Duquet. of Chatham, Chester county
about four o’clock in the afternoon of the
I'ith ultimo, and married her within three
hours afterwards. Both are said to be
worthy and respectable persons, but very
lively. They were jesting upon the subject
ot matrimony, when she jestingly “penned
the question,” to which he acceded. One
reply brought on another, until they went
to the parson’s and hud the ceremc®v nm
formed.
Pe> severance. —“ You can do anythin-if
you will only have patience,*’ said an old
uncle who had made a fortune, to a ncj); ow
who had nearly spent one. “Water may
be carried in a sieve if you can only wait.”
‘How long?” asked the petulant spend
thrift, who was impatient for the old man’s
obituary. His tui le cooily replied, “Till
it feezes.”
A Woman's idea of Happiness. —A lady
correspondent ot the Boston i'itnes n va s
her ideas “of perfect bliss” n the following
paragraph:
••I’m a woman, w h a woman’s weakness,
and having a good constitution, can bear a

8. TIIK NOfTTII BMTTSiI REVIEW, (Free Church.)
4. THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW, (Liberal )
S BLACKWOOD’S LDINBUEGH MAGAZINE, (Tory.)
Tbe great and important everts—Religious, Polit
ical, and Military—now agitating the nations of the
Old World, give to these Publications an interest and
value they never before possessed. They occupy a
niiddle ground between the hastily written news
items, jriKie speculations, un i fiying ruir.oT.s of tlu
n .wapapers, and the pomierous Ti .v .e of the histori
an, written long after the lining interests in the facts
he records shall have passed away. The progress of
(ho war in the East occupies a large space in their
p.'.ges. Every movement is closely criticised, wheth
er of friend or foe, and all short-comings fearlessly
pointed out. The letters from tho Crimea and fi o.n
the Baltic, in Blackwood’s Magazine, from tw. of its
most popular contributors, give a more intelligible
and reliable account f the great beligerents torn can
elsewhere bo found.
These Periodicals ably represent the three great
nolit’c;,! parties of Great Britain —WDig, Tory and
Radical—but polities forms only one feature of their
character. An-Organs of the most profound writers
cn science, literature, morality and religion, they
stand, as they haveever stood, unrivalled ir. the worid
of letters, being considered indispensable to the schol
ar and the professional man, while to the intelligent
reader of every class, they furnish a more correct and
satisfactoi y record of the current literature of tho day,
throughout the world, than can be possibly obtained
from any other source.

essence of medical science on this important subject; as the re
sult of the experience of the most eminent physicians in Euiope
and America is thoroughly demonstrated in his own highly .ms**
cessfu. practice in the treatment of secret diseases in many' thou
sands of cases in the City of Philadelphia alone.
The practice of Dr. Hunter has long been, and still is, literally
unbounded, but at the earnest solicitation of numerous person?, he
has been induced to extend, the sphere of his professional useful
ness to the community it large, through the medium of his “Med
ical Manual and Hand-Book for the Afflicted.”
It is a volume that shouliLbe in the hand of every family in the
land, whether used as a preventive of secret vices, or hb a guide
for the alleviation of one of the most awfttl and destructive sour
ci s ever visited upon mankind for the sins of sensuality and impu
rity of every kind.
ft is a volume that has received the unqualified recommendation
of the first phyticians'ln the land, white many clergymen, fathers,
mothers, philanthropists and humanitarians, have most freely ex
tended its circulation in all quarters where its powerful teachings
would be likely to i>e instrumental in the moral purification and
physical totaling of multitudes of our people, among die young, vol
atile and indiscreet, oitorvke the pride and flower of the nation.
The author argue? particularly, most strongly against avery spe
cies of self-defilement, and warns parents and guardians, in search
ing terms, to guard the young of both from the terrible con
sequences concomitant of their Igooraoce of physiological laws and
sexual impurities aud irregularities, whether exhibited by preco
cious development or arising from Hie vicious and corrupting ex
amples of their school-mates or ot’ierwise. To those whohave
been already ensnared to the “paths that take hold on hell,” a
clear and explicit wry is shewn by which they may secure a re
turn of sound health, ut-J a regeneration of the soul from its terri
ble pollution.
It ’.veil known that thousands of victims p.rc annually sacrifi

nerial or yphiiitic diseases—Strictures, Sc-atistal Weakness, Ner

VOLCANIC REPEATING PISTOES.
rpiIIS PISTOL can be discharged with greater
X rapidity and certainty than any other Pistol
now in use. The following is an extract in relation
to them, taken from the New Haven Palladium:
*• Volcanic Reputing I’Mcl.—Wc have s*en rnd
fired a pistol, recently invented and patented, which
bids fair to excel everything as yet ottered in that
line to the public attention. It seems to combine all
that could be desired in such a weapon. Colts pis
tol, compared with it, seems like a distortion, or a
clumsy, uncouth and ridiculous affair for a (infeM.
Thu Yolcrnic Pistol carries a tnnrie or conical -ball
in a ritle barrel, and will pui It through a threc-inch
plonk at a distance of ninety rods. The receiving
tube will hold twelve ball cartridges, which may he
deposited in two seconds of time. The pistols may
be discharged thirty times in fifty seconds. It is so
contrived that it is not liable to accidental discharge.
I here is no priming, no caps, and, therefore, no dan
ger to the eyes from ignition near the breach. Neith
er is there any recoil so as to jar the arm or disturb
a sure aim. The whole construction is so simple
not to get out of order even from long use. The pow
der and ball are enclosed in the same metalic cover
so that a person might swim a river with one of these
in his belt without the slightest degree injuring the
powder. In short, the weapon is in all respects one
of the most perfect tilings in the shooting line that
wo ever took into our hands.”
