In the new born spring, '
When the blue-birds sing
In woods and meadows green;
When the lillies grow, 
And the violets blow,

Na wintry snows,

Nor wind that blows
Front arctic regions bleak,

Or felt so keen
On blushing beauty cheek-.

Autumnal sheaves,
And falling leaves,
lilay charm the pensive breast;
The faded views
Of aulunin’s hues,

E’en each display
Of suinmer gay.
In richest robes attir’d,
Like coquette rude, -

Halli charms to sing,

Dear season, how
I prize the now,

' Would be thy cl’:-arms,

But press the fair one here.-

The dear embrace,

Unitetlin her form,
\Vould blissful be ;
But penury
Must chill this heart so‘ warm.

Still, maiden, now

An April fool at last.
FROM THE BOMBAY COURIER.
A SU'I"I‘EE._ _

‘ S-1R—Tfl1lnl~’. an account of a suttee which
took place in this city two evenings ago, will
"how you in a most strikuig manner, with
ilxrliiii cluelly they are soinetimcs accompani-
ed. The unfortunate Braminee, of her own
accord, had ascended the funeral pile of her
htrsb:ind’s bones (for he had died at a distance)
but finding the torture ofthe fire more lhaii
she could hear, by a violent struggle she threw
herself from the fliinies, and, tottering to a
short distance, fell down. Some gefllleilleli
who were present, immediately plunged her
into the river which was close by, and thereby
saved her from being much burnt. She re-
tained her senses completely, and "complained
ofthe baducss of the pile, which, she said,
consumed her -so slowly that she could not
bear it, but expressed her willingness to again
try it, ifthey would improveit; they would
not do so, and the poor creature slirnnk with
"dread frotn the flames, which were now burri-
ing most intensely, and refused to go on.-—
‘When the inhuman relations saw thrs,tliey
took her by -the head and heels and threw her
into the fire, and held her there till they were
driven away by thedhea_t,;, thheygilsp took up
large blocks ofwoo , wit w ic tiey struct
her, in order to deprive her of her senses, but
she again made her escape, and without any
help ran directly into the river. I‘he people
ofher house followed her here, and tried to
drown her by pressing her under the water ;
but a gentleman who was present rescued her
from them,and she immediately ran into his
arms, and cried to him to save her. I arrived
at the ground as they were bringing her this
second time from the river, and I cannot de-
scribe to you the horror I felt on seeing the
mangled condition she was in ; almost every
inch ofskin on her body had been btirnt off;
her legs and thighs, her arms and back, were
completely raw; her breasts were dreadfully
torn, and the skin hanging from them in
threads; the skin and nails ofher fingers had
peeled wholly off, and were hanging to the
back of her hands. In fact, Sir,I never saw
or ever read of sod enltireg piétiure of misery
as this woman isp aye . ie seetne to
dread being again taken to the fire, and called
out to the ‘ Ocha Sahib,’ as she feelingly de-
rioininated them to save her. Her friends
seemed no longer inclined to force her ; and
one of her relations, at her instigation, sat
down beside her, and gave her some clothes,
and told her they would not. Vile had her
sent totlie hospital, where every medical as-
sistance was immediately given her, but with-
out hope of her recovery. She lingered in
Elie mostgifizrucgatiéig pain for -about twenty

iou_rs,an ten ie .

“ The gentlemen present renionstraled a-
gainst herlieirig put on the fire a second time,
out they did not like to interfere further with
what they considered to be the customs of the
country.”

Revolutionary .l3lnecdote.-—ALi.i:N, in his
history ofthe Revolution, relates the follow-
ing :--While the siege ofSavannali was pend-
ing. one of the most extraordinary enterprises
ever related in history occurred. It was an
emerprize conceived and executed by Col.
John White ofthe Georgia line. A Captain
Fiencli, of DeIancey‘s first baltallion, was
'p'0§lC'tl with one hundred men, British regu-
Iars,on the Ogechee river, about Qfimiles from
Savaniiah. There lay, also, at the same
place, five armed vessels, the largest mounting
.14 guns, and having on board altogether 41
men. Colonel White, with Capt. Etlioliii, 8
soldiers, and his own servant, approached this
post on the evening of the 30th September,

iiidled a nuirrber of fires, arranging them in
the manner of a large camp, and suinmonetl
Captain French to surrender, he and his com-
rades iu the mean time ridliig about in vari-
ous directions, and giving orders in a loud
voice, as if performing the duties of the staff
too large artriy. French, not doubting the

reality of what he saw, and anxious to spare
the effusion of blood, which a contest with a
force so superior would pro_duce, surrendered
the trliole detachment, ‘together with the

cream ofthe die vessels, iiiiiritititiiig in all to

141 men, and 160 stand ofarinsl Col. White

-had still, however-, a very difficult game I0

play ; it was necessary to keep up the delu-

sion of capt. French until the prisoners sh,0Ultl

be secured; and with this view, he pretended

that the animosity ofliis troops W85 50 “"89"
ernable, that a little siratagein would he nec-
essary to savetlie prisoners - from their fury,
and that he shotild therefore commit them to
the care ofthree guides, with orders to con-
, dtict them to a place of safety. V\'ith uiany
thanks for the coloriel’s humanity, French
accepted the proposition, and marched off at
a quick pace, under the direction off} guides,
fearful at every step, that the rage of White’s
troops would burst upon them in spite of his
huuiaiie attempts to restrain tliem._ White, as
soon as they were out ofsight, employ ed him-‘
sclfin collecting the iuilitia ofthe neighbour-
hood, with wliorii he overtook lllSJ)l‘lS()li8l‘S, 
they were conducted in safety 915 miles to an
American Fort.

IIoa.v:i'ng.-—Some misichievous person has
been amusing hirnsclfat the expense ofa mim-
ber ofindividuals connected with one ofthe
largest religious societies in the town, during
the past week. It is reported that letters writ-
ten in a very fine hand were received by the
pastor, and about 80 or 40 of his flock, inclu-
ding all the singers, inviting lhein to take tea
with a few religious friends at the house of a
poor widow in a certain street,and concluding
by requesting the singers to provide tlieiii-
selves with their rnusic.il instruments, books,
Etc. The bait was too tempting to fail, and
accordingly about 8 o’clock, the minister and
several ofliis people began to congregale.-
The poor woman, it is said, felt at first highly
gratified at this honour, but when she found
her visitors increasing by scores, she became
alarmed lest her cruse ofoil should be insuffi-
cient. The scene at length became highly
amusing; the liotise was full,but fresh cus-
tomers arrived every inomciit, and there was
no telling where the streain would cease. At
length it was l'.‘Xl)lllll(.(l to those crammed in
the liotisc, that no invitation had been sent by

in evident dtidgeon at the wanton imp who
had sclieined the lio-ax, and raised their ex-
pectation of“ good tliiugs” to iiicrease their
.disappoiutinent ;Il'lt;‘ singcts dolcd forth a dis-
inal dirge, the iiitisicians shouldered their viols
‘ and basoons, and all slipped off, one after a-
nother, as if conscious oftlieir being fit objects
l)liI1r'~1'l‘ll‘llefll.--A. similar trick has been play-
ed off upon a,tratIesman who is said to be
soniewliat penuriuus ; letiers were sent to. a
cousideralile number ofhis friends, inviting
them to take a glass of wine with Hr. --— at
such a time. Mr. ,asit happened, was
at home at the hour appointed: “fill “"5 ‘*1
first surprised, then astonished, and halfangry
at the numerous and unexpected visits he re-
ceived. The house was soon “ ii bumper.”
His friends told him that as they had lound
him “at home” they were determined to be
equally so ; all his protestations that he hull
sent no invitations were dis‘-oelievetl $2. laugh-
ed at, and finding no dcni.il would be taken,
as they insisted it was all “quite correct,” he
putthc best face he could on the inattcr,seiit for
“ iots”ol'“lus.’i,” pipes and tobacco. " J13
you like if.” becaine-the order of the day, and
" Lough. when you can” their motto. Alter a
song, but no supper, they left their worthy
host, gaily singing, “ Can’t we, can't we, call
again to marrow 13” On the same eveniou,
befoix: the parties arrived, a number of apol-
Qgies were sent from those who had received
similar invitations, giving various excuses for
not being able to c01l1pVl,y with the writer’s rc-
quest.——L<riglilon Gazelle.
DICK, THE G1-2N'.1‘LE.\1AN.

Dicky Dash was born in lllt:1IIldSl@fa fine,
fat, fertile country of the west, where lllflfté
were plenty of potatoes, cabbzsges, and corti-
but no gentlemen. Dicky had sin-..ll liands—-
a tliiu face——an idle disposition, and il bushy
head. Dicky said he was a gentleman. The
squire looked from top to toe of Dicky, and
said—"lic is a geiitlenian." The doctor felt
his pulse and said-——“ Dicky’s a gentleman."
The lawyer cross-examined him, and said—-
“ Dicky’s a gentleman.” This being ascer-
taineif. beyond a doiibt, Dicky immediately
kicked the potatoes from hiin-—-tossed away
tne cabbages, and gave the plough over to sa-
ian [heaven preserve us from his power I}-
Dicky put a new shirt into his pocket,juinped
aboard the steaiii-boat, and hollowed out to
the captain to start his nine inches of steam
for the city. After the pulling and blowing
of _a night and a day, Dick was landed at
Courtlatid-street wharf. Hejuuiped ashore,
subbed up his whiskers, and became in a trice
it gentleman clerk in a splendid store for the.
ladies, in Broadway. He was in pain to show
off the geiitleman, but his employer was a
close fellow, and ‘made him stick to the shop.
Dick had a mortal antipathy to sticking. He
read the prodigious liandbill that is posted up
on the front 01 the Theatre, and sighed and
swore, and sighed and swore in vain. He saw
the dashy blades rolling down to Union course
in the racing season, and almost hit his fingers
off that he could not crack a whip too. Dick
tossed and tumbled in his bed at night-flat-
tercd and coaxed the old dads thro’ the day,
52. at last was set up as a gentleman mercliant
in Pearl street, with his door all hung round
with shawls, and his windows shining like a
rainbow in fancy ribbons. Now was the time
for Dick to show off the geutleman—l$.'. show
it off he did with a vengeance. He got a
horse, then a saddle, then went to the races.
He popped into the theatre, lolled at the op-
era, subscribed to a concert, and shook his
heels at cotillion parties. The girls smiled
upon him——the old maids praised him—the
uiotliers chatted with him-—-llie fathers shook
liiui by the hand, and said, "- How do you do,
Mr. Dick ?”

Now Dick Dash was a gentleman. Butalas!
a gentleman can’t last for ever. His bills be-
came due—--tlie banks protested tlieiri-—liis
horse was sold—his store shut up—and tiie
old maids said, “ Did not I tell you so P”-
Dicky Dash, the gentleinain, then returned to
the country as he came from it, with a shirt in
his pocket, and a flea in his ear.--.N'. Y. Adv.

Walkener. As a proofofthe violence (31 her

quitting his house, he found waiting for him
near the door, Madame Lafosse,‘ clothed iii_a
costly robe of black velvet. After having in
vain siipplicatiid him to return wilh"ller IO his
house, she threw herself forthwith at his feet.
and renewed her enlrcaties,accompanred with
tears and sobs. M. Walkeneri Wlllle "‘l_-‘lllil

she might make of it, took to fliglit. ‘He ll)’.
formed the Police of the importiinities of
Marlaiiie Lafosse, and declared to the Prefect
of Police, iliut he was certain he should meet
with his death at her hands. M. Walltener
was altaclied to a very pretty girl, ‘23 years of
age. This circuriislance coming to the knowl-
edge of Madame Lafosse, she becauie iiispir—
ed with the utmost fury of jealousy. 3‘ llelel‘
mined to wreak her vengeance tipoii the cause
of it. For this purpose she provided herself
with a bottle of concentrated sulphurif. acid
(oil ofvitriol,) and putting on two pair of thick
gloves, she repaired one morning at an early
hour to the lodgings of this unfortunate girl,
whom she found in bed. She poured a quan-
tity ofthe sulphuric acid upon her glove cov-
ered hand, and then rubbed them 098!‘ lhe
face, neck, bosom, and shoulders of her ill-
fated rival. The poor girl sent forth the most
agonising cries, and endeavored to shield her-
selffroin the burning liquid. In the struggle
some drops ofthe acid were thrown upon the
face of Madaine Lafusse, which now bears 8
distitict marks ofit. She has beeiiarrested,
and the proceedings before the examining
Judge being now nearly completed, she will,
in all probiibility, be brought to trial in the
course of November. The life of her victim
is now declared out of danger, but her beauty
is gone forever. Madame Lafosse has but
100 well succeeded in her vengeance, having
changed her rival into a hideous and repulsive
object.--Paris paper.
FROM mm-:5’ nrzcrsren.

MArliiiro'rris !--Tlie London '1‘iines, spea-
king of our President's message, says--“ The
army is said to be well organized, a school of
naval instruction is recoinineiided, and the
navy is augmenting every day——the last addi-
tion to it being ten sloops of war, which from
weight and strength of metal, are arnatch for
our 42 gun frigates. Upon the whole, this
message discovers a bias towards peace, and a
izonfiderice of strength ; the first of which
must be as satisfactory to the friends of the
Republic, as the second would be formidable
to those who are not so.”

But though these ships are such 'ri:ititinLE
things, we tliiuk that there is more danger to
England (ifdanger there is in our proceed-
ings) in the facts stated in the following par-
agraph from the same article, than in the pre-
ceding. Ships will perish——tiiey are things
ofthe. day, but our nation inus‘t go on to iii-
crease-

“ The messages from Presidents of the U.
States constitute, in our judgnient, the most
important series ofstale papers that the world
ever witnessed. They tell truths ofinestiin-
able moment to the interests ofa great nation
in the face of all mankind. They are records
of facts uliere nothing is omitted--explaiia~
Lions of policy where nothing can be disguis-
ed--solcmu recognitions of the end for which
iiiagistrates have been appointed, and power
delegated—eviilences against which there is
no appeal, ofthe aweinspired by a free peo-
plc into the breast ofa responsible Gov’t.”

MR. RANDOLPH.—-Some years since,
when Joliu Randolph assailed a member of
the House of Representatives, on the floor, in
.his usual strain of iiivective ; the member at
whoui he aimed, after Mr. Randolph had set
down, arose and reiriarked, something lilte
this, that he was shot at and hit, lashed and
lacerated, if it was done decently; but to be
tomahawkcd to death by that cursed son ofPo-
caliontas, he would not silently bear it.

This ‘ sou ofPocah ontas,’ as his antagonist
tlieu called him, if he did not, in his two late
lotig speeches, while the Senate, were in se-
cret session, make use of his toinahawk, he
uiost plentifully hurled his arrows, not even
sparing the fair sex. And when afterwards
the galleries were opened and filled with the
beauty and fashion ofthe city, he in his third
speech broke out upon them-—“ The ladies I
God bless them! I love to see them any
where and every where, except in a Legisla-
tive Hall,a Court ofJustice, or ata set-to of
Big Ben and the Game Chicken !” A person
in the gallery took his eye_-glass, the better to
observe John’s connteiiance when speaking,
when he broke off from his speech $2. scream-
ed out, “ take down that glass, Sir !” Axio-
tlier one had lifted the corner of a curtain to
get a sight at him, when, in the midst of his
spcecli, he again screamed out, “ put down
that curtain this instant l”

This may not be tomaliawkiog the ladies
and speclators,but was contrary to every prin-
ciple ofdecorum and politeiiess,to thus wan-
tonl_v assail those whose curiosity had brought
them to see, and sec minutely, so extraordin-
ary a being.-——./Inierican Eagle.

A letter from Washington says :—“ Mr.
Randolph’s health is uiiustially good. His
voice and nerves areas strong as ever, and his
eye has lost none of its fire. He husbands his
physical resources with great care, takes a
great dealof exercise, is frequently seen ri-
ding a swift trotting horse through the city.
His appearance is grotesque as forinerly ex-
cept that he does not wear his hair so long.-
His usual dress in the Senate is a long blue
coat, buff vest with red sham, drab small
clothes, and fair top boots-—and (at lar.'Pirick-
neg) he wears and sometimes speaks in white
gloves.”

Yesterday a man was taken up and.com-
mitted to prison on the following charges :-
that on the 14th inst. he went into the ware-

three pieces of bed ticken, laid them aside, as
his own, and obtained froui Mr.Comly an ad-
vance on them of £29., requesting him at the
same time, to put labels on the goods as he
had been unable to do it, having no pen and
ink. On the 16'tli,-the same person went into
the same warercoms, laid nine other pieces
of bed ticken with the three pieces on which
he had got the advance, and ilien contrived,
on the 192 pieces, to obtain from Mr. Comly
an adyauce of 8100. Pretty early yesterday
morning, the same man went into the saute
store, and was arrested and commit ted. He
called himself John Deany; the receipts
which he had given Mr. Comly, were in two
different names, neither ofllieiii the same as
that he now assumed. It is butjustice to re-
mark, that before the Alderman, he stoutly
denied that he was the man, said he knew
nothing ofilie transactions st.aled,and that he
could prove he could not iviite.--Dem.Press.

F:z:Iraord£nar_y Circumstance.-——At a cele-
bration of several school districts held in the
town of Pi'ov'ideuce, in this county, on Mon
day last, a circumstance transpired which we
izoiisitler as worthy of record. From the nov-
city of the occasion, a great number of the
iiiliabitants from the adjoining towns assein.
bled to the nuuiber of several hundred. The
place in which they assembled was a large
room, (the largest in the town) in the tannery
of Mr. Barker ; the staging being erected in
a room directly over the vats. This part was
not calculated to sustain sticli a burden as on
this occasion had congregated, as will be seen
in the sequel-—and when the exercises were
about halffinished, the superstructure gave
way, and all—-meii women and children,were
precipitated a distance of 14 feet in among
the vats. In this SllIIfltlt"l‘1_.llie'lal'l1pS having
been extinguished, and the night being dark,
a scene occurred which beggars description:
the air resounded with wailings and lamenta-
tions each one groping his way in lhedayk,
and children besmeared in the vats, crying
for assistauce——but he who directs the wl-iirl-
wind and the storm preserved their lives in
this perilous situation. Several were partial-
ly injured, but none dangerous. Leghorn
hats, silk and crape frocks, were dyed in vari-
utis hues. From 100 to $200 worth of cloth-
ing was entirely destr_oyed.—-—Bal[ston Gaz,

A captain at Philadelphia went into a store
