...Fom-tka Sout&.Caroliniatt. - T(-MY BROTHER, IN TEXAS. Oh, deareqt brother, quick return, Andispeed thee on the eagle's wir I For 'tur sad spirits ill discern The-glories of the opening spring. Anl Ca lina's sunny skes, Since. u art gone, less bright spear. n vain lowly spirit tries To 'k for blis4 and thont not near. Anl'hwarls4 far Texas oft I gaze, When sinks the seuing stn to rest; When gild the clouds, his farewell rays, [sigh, for thou lovd'st evening best. More I love eve, now many a smile My brother's distant far the while. The verdant fields we used to roam, The streanlet's side, the flowers dell, And all the witching scenes of home, Twine round me a resist less spell. Have they no power to charm thee back? Best thou the prairie's greeu prefer. To home. where, save front care's attack, Thoul't sweetly rest, dear traveller? Ah ! hotme is siare the seat of bliss, If ever found in worlds like this. Yet thou -hast roved o'er land more fair, More blessed than e'er -these eyes have seen. 'Neath brighter skies breathed purer air. Crossed Sylvan floods and prairies areen Hast gazed on mountains high and blue, Camanche, roaming far and wide; Cull'd lovely flowers of every hue, Viewed Colorado's flowing tide; But mid ihesejoys, does ere distress Come o'er thee, and thy soul oppress ? May magic fancy aid thy sight, That show thee all the joys that cling Round -home, and every dear delight, To win thee back from wandering. Come back, then, brother! eyes. grow bright, When lips speak of thy wished return. Dear brother, cease thy wanderirfg! Oh speed thee home on eagle's wing THE WARRIOR'S GRAVE. Stop! 'is the grave Of a warrior true. 'The star of the brave, Where the war hanner Raw; Commend hin tip heaveu, But stain not his hier With the sigh ofa craven, The dew of a tear. He wept not when traitors Sold honour for gold, Nor sighed when the foeman Swept over the world; He belted his brand And sprang on his steed. And spurred 'mnid the death brunt Toconquer and bleed. He lools from his leight O'er the field of his fame: And our beacon's red light Be the spell of his name; And his spirit shall Rush To each warrior's brow, When our eagles shall rush To the fight-un the foe. FACTS. A man may drink and not be drunk, A man may fight and not be slain; A man may kiss a bomtie lass, A'nd yet be welcome back again. Poetry.-A southweetern lover pathet ically hewails the loss of his.sweea heart, who'ran nofwith another, in the following poetical strain : "'Gone ! gone forever now the hope, Thejoy. for which I thirs-ed, Sally Antn has taken shape, Andl I atm done and bursled." 1~Mcellane6088. THUS I THINK. It is a man's propter business to seek happiness and avoid misery. Hasppine~ss consista in wyhat delights and c'onnts the mdmd; misery in what disturbs, or tot mewts it. I will therefore make it my business to seek satisfaction and delight, and avoid uneasiness and disquiet ; to have as onehci of the one and as httleolthe other as may beo. But here I must have a care I mistake not ; for if I .prefer a shtort pleasure to. a lasting one, it is plain I cross tmy own bappiness. Let me then see wherein consists thme most lasming pleasure ofthis life, and that. as fareas I can observe, isin these thintg: lst. Health-without which no sensual pleasure can have any relish. 2d. Reputation-for that I Ibud every body is pleased with, and thte want of it is a contamttt torment. 3d. Kntowledge-for the little knowi edge I have. I finad I would not sell at any rate, nor part wit h for anay ot her pleasutre. 4th Dtintg good-ftor I itud the wvell cook. ealmeat 1 eat to-day does now no moure delight me, nay I a'm.dhiseased after a fuill meal; the pefumes I smelt yesterday now nto more all'ordl tme ay pleasure ; kntt the good turn [did yemsterdayv ta year, seven years since. continues still to please anti delighlt me as often as I reflect otn it. ~5th. The expectation'of eternal and ineomprehensible happinees. -in -ao'her ..rlrtd to that also, which caries acstn pleasure with it- 'Aittt If, then. I will f(sithllaly pursue that happindEs I propose to mnysetlf, whatever pleasure offers itself to me, I amust care fully look that it cross not any of- tirase five great and cotnstant pleasturet above mentioned. For example. the fruit I ae tempts me with the taste of it that I love; but if it endanger my health, I part with a constant and lasting, for a very short and tr..aet platue.a ndi s, fool.ishl n.mae mvseltf unhapay, and am not true to my D%~6 interesi. Inoicent diversions delight ..me: if I make use of them to refresh myself after study and bus.ness, they -preserve my health : restore the vifor of my mind, and increase my pleasure.; but if I spend all my time in themi, they hinder my improve ment in knowledge and useful arts. they blast my credit and give me up to the un easy state orshame. ignorance and -con tempt. in which I cannot but be very un happy. Drinking, gaming, and vicious delights will do me this mischief. not only by wasting my time, h'it hy positive injury endanger miy health, impair my parts, imprint ill hahiis,lessen my esteem, and leave a constant lasting itrment an my coscionce ; therefore all vicious and unlaw. ful pleasures I will always avoid, because -uch a mastery of tmy passions will al'url me a constant pleasure greater than any such enjoyments. and also deliver tme from the certain evil of several kinds, thai by indulging myself in a present temptation I shall certainly afterward suf fer.-[Locke.] A Warm Corpse.-A couple of resntH rectionists started for a subject one cold night, in a small covered wagon. and sac ceeded in finding one-when they had disinterred the body they dressed it up in a frock ciat. hat, &c, placed i: between them in their wagon, and started for home. rhe weather being very cold. and coming in sigh of a tavern. they concluded it stop and "take a dritk," which they dtid, leaving the itn.imate conpanini sitting er..et uplon his seat, with the horse's reins lying in his kap. The ostler observimg three iudividuals in the wagon when it was driven tip, and noticing that lnt two went into the house. thought he would inquire of the third why he didnt follow his companions. So he walked up to the wagon and asked the reason for his remain ing behind. No answer was returned. After ques tioning the dmhlt gentleman some time, he took hold or him, aid found that his handl wits upon a dead man! Although terrified at first, his mind soon solved the mystery. lie recollected that one of the indlivid'nuis who was sipping toddy at the bar, was a nedalcI student. "Sn," says the ostler, "I'll have soie fun with these larks.' He hoisted tho hody fron the wagon and carried it into the stable, when he took olfits clothes, put theim on him self, and then placed himself in the wagon; after a short time the students returned of then jnmped up beside. as he sup posed his dead man. and in merriment struck him upon hit; knee. exclaining ''how wouli you like some flip, my old fellow ? The moment the words had passed his lips, he observed to his companion, in a law and trenbling voice. 'Bena lie's warm!' This started lien, but he recovered his self-pasession in a moment, and after re proving his friend lor frightening him un necessarily, stepped up an I touched the ostler himself; in an instant choked with fear, he repeated what his compansioni had just said.-"H e is warm, hv Heaven."* -And so would yon lie," replied the osaler in a tieasured and ghostly tone. "if yoia had jiast been stolen from h -, as I have!" T'le stittlents took to their heels, and nev er returned to clnim their horse or wagon. Abuse of Laragers.-A very splendid and unwarraittle prejudice exists in thi' hii offreemetn, against the menabers gen erally of the legal profession. With a certitin clis-, a Lawyer anti a knave are aliost -synonymos105 terms ; and the out cry against their avarice and extortionsis partienlarly unantimous and loud. It nay ie rather anit tniorlar avowal. klnl in our opinion. no hbody of meni, conilhining so miach taletnt, integritv anid honnorabale feel ing, is so tunspasrinagly ahntsed ; tand all thais merely biecaiuse it hapjpens to be afflicted. like all ther parofessiotns or calliig", with uniworthy mem~tbers.

Fhe Declaramion of Inidepe'ndenc'e was )nned by a Latwyer; a large imjority f the bodty whlich adopted and declared it o the worl. were also Lawyers; andI all gr I'resideants, with sine exception, were itembers ofC the Bar.

Ac-cordinag y diligent search was made, and at the -ds of two days, his hodly was founid in a lock near Chaurle'stown. As is usual in nh cases, a jiury was called together; and is the story goes, (which is trite for all we ino.)they were all meni af color."
