OF THE STATES OF ILLINOIS AND MISSOURI, AND
THE TERaIroEY OF ARKANSAS.
vnNHE tide of emigration that has OF late
L. years rolled to these countries, gives to
them all Importance, not only to the people
OF the United States, but Of Europe, which, it
IS believed, renders it desirable that grs~
phical description should be made, which will
convey correct knowledge OF their local adj
van,ages--Persons living at distance have
hitherto had no adequate means Of obtaining;
precise or definite information respecting
them. The time has arrived when their great
natural resources are rapidly developing, and
when ii is preceiyed, they are marked out BY
nature as places where capital and industry
may be employed, with certainty of success.
In point OF climate they are not inferior, and
in point of mineral wealth and fertility ofsol,
they are scarcely equalIed in any other section
of the union or OF the globe. Under these
impressions, the publisher solicited and OBJ.
tanned the consent Of the Surveyor General,
to have access to all papers in his office, which
might be requisite in the execution Of the pre-,
sent design.
The map will be made from actual survey,
the distances represented by scale OF eight
or ten miles to the inch. The extent of coun.
try proposed to be described, extends six
hundred miles from north to south, by four
hundred from east 10 west. The counties,
towns, villages, lead mines, salt springs, state
roads, boundaries of the states, and the Iati-
tude and longitude will be correctly define.
a,ed. The heads of navigation Of those streams
within the country that have been surveyed
will be designated by reference to the mar
gin Of the map. The large confirmed Spa.
nsh claims will also be represented.
'flle map will be commenced Immediately
and should the publisher be SO fortunate as to
meet with a liberal subscription, he will, as
soon as practicable have it completed.
The subscription for each map will be TEN
DOLLARS, with rollers and colored.

Is love crime? the crimson streak
That nantes Ger thy youthful cheek,
Those downcast eyes, too plainly speak
Ofsecret care; and prove
Love is crime of deepest dye,
Ofdarkest guilt, or tell me why
That blushing cheek and downcast eye,
If It's no crime to lovel
Is love crimel at twilight hour,
When evening dews begem each flower,
Why dost thou quit the festal bower,
Through pathlets wilds to rove.
Oh, how unmeet for one as young,
Is that slow step, that faltering tongue!
Then tell me whence such change hath sprung
If tits no crime to love!
Is love crime' the pearly dew
That dims that eye of heavenly blue,
That lately shone in radient hue,
The. sapphire's light above,
Must answer all; and tell the by
Thy youthful bosom's frequent sigh,
Thy changing cheek and fearful eye,
That It's crime to love.

A. Pray tell me, friend 4, what has J..
C. Symmes been about, all the winter
past, that he has launched none Of his
essays abroad on the pages Of our In
telligenceis, and other heraldsof know

late excitability: or is he accumulating
a food of essays, crowded with new
proofs ofhis doctrine Of the spheres!
Z. l believe he needs no accumula-
ton of excitability; he may, however,
often need an accumulation of sensori-
al po,oer, to enable him to sustain the
excitement which the interesting de-
velopments Of the new theory affords.
Be that as it may, he has found the
world at large so ready to recoil at eve

A SONG OF PITCAIRN'S ISLAND.
Come, take our boy, and we will 60
Before our cabin door;
The winds shall bring us, as they blow,
The murmurs Of the shore;
And we will kiss his young blue eyes, :,
And will sing him, as he lies,
Songs that were made of yore;
I'll sing, in his delighted ear,
The island songs thou lov'st to hear.
And thou, while stammering l repeat,
Thy country's tongue shall teach;
IT'S not so soft, but far more sweet
Than my own native speech.
For thou no other tongue didst know,
When, scarcely twenty years ago,
Upon Tahete's beach,
Thou cam'st to woo me to be thine.
With many speaking look and sign.
knew thy meaning-thou didst praise
My eyes, my locks of jet,
All! well for me they won thy gaze
But thine were fairer yet!
Pm glad to see my infant wear
Thy soft blue eyes and sunny hair,
And rhoe nv, c,rrht 80 ynat-
Byhis white brow and blooming cheek,
feel joy cannot speak.
Come, talk of Europe's maids, with me,
Whose necks and checks, they tell,
Outshine the beauty of the sea-
White foam and crimson she'll.
I'll shape like theirs my simple dress,
And bind like them each jetty tress,
A sight to please thee well,
And for my dusky brow will braid
A bonnet like an English maid.
Come, for the soft, low sunlight calls,
We love the pleasant hours;
IT'S loveGer than these cottage walls
That seat among the flowers.
And will learn of thee prayer,
To Him, who gave home so fair,
A lot so blest as OURS
The God who made, for thee and me,
This sweet lone Isle amid the sea.

for either of them, or for such information as
may lead to their recovery. Sylvia was for
merly the property of Mr.. Crease; had been
hired in Alexandra for some months past,
where she is well known. On or about the
18th of last month she left Alexandria with the
intention Gas she stately to come home. She
is about 81 years old, but appears to be more;
is rather tall and slender, not very black, and
has a pleasant countenance, pock marked a
bout the nose. She sews with her left hand,
and generally wears handkerchief about her
head.
It unnecessary to describe her clothing,
as she may have variety with her, one article
Of which is probably new blue cloth shawl.
She dresses neatly, and is good looking ser
want. Whether she left Alexandra at the
time reported, or at what time, is as uncertain
as the direction she may have taken. 1t is
probable she is yet in the District or in the
neighborhood, or she may have taken north
ern direction. Jane her daughter, who it is
supposed she has with her, is about six years
old, and looked delicate, owing to late sick
ness-her complexion is lighter than the mo.
ther. The above reward will be paid to any
person fer securing the above named servants
so that get them again, by giving immediate
information to Edm. l. Lee, esq. of Alexan-

Turnpike Road, and near Centreville, and all
reasonable charges will be paid if brought
home. Sylvia has connexions in the neigh
