Fort Mitchell on the 9th of April last, at which
time some conversation took place between him
self and the Agen: respecting the late Treaty; and
the dissatisfaction of part of the Indians, on ac-
count of the ratification OF the same, which the
Indians did not believe until he (Crowell) returned
from Washington and informed them; which inlor-
nation appeared to displesse part of the Indians,

Mr. Miles further testified, that Col. Crowell

guard around him, and tina, he would be killed by

POETRY.

From the Hudson Gazette.
THE STRANGER.
He came at night when the winds were high,
And the air was keen and cold;
When the stars were twinkling in the sky,
And the chill moon waxed cold.
He came in the night when the weary Slept,
And the owl her nightly vigils kept,
And the clouds, in broken turrets, fast
As the wings of eagles fitted past;
He came when all was wild and lone,
As the broken mandrake's nightly groan.
He came to the home of his boyhood! where
His heart had been glad in life's young day;
He came, but his fancy saw not there
One friend of the hours past.
He came, but the morning saw him not!
All, mark the Strangers hapless lot!
The moon sped fast 10 the west away,
And he, madly, sought the foamy spray,
And folded himselfin watcry shroud,
When the waves were rolling fierce and loud.
He is sleeping now in coral cave,
Where the eddying waters flow;
And he does not heed the rolling wave,
Or the winds that rldely blow:
Yet over his head the wind sweeps by,
And the bittern bird is screaming nigh,
And the ocean mourns in lonely tone,
The fate of the hapless stranger, gone
To the home of the dolphin, shark, and whale,
Where the sea is white with the snowy sail.

JEWISH CONVERTS.

New- York, May l6-We have so
many calls upon our purse and pa
thence, in these days of piety and good
works, that it is really task to discri-
inmate between real and fictitious cha
rities-between the reasonable and ra-
tional-the probable and certainty
the good that is really acquired, and
the evil which is merely imaginary
In the various Eleemosynary visits
which are paid by the faithful to the
liberal, we are complimented to our
full share We used to publish all re-
ligious notices gratis, until our chris
tan colleagues let us into the secret,
that they must all be charged, and that
charity begins at home. We are tax
ed more severely than the rest of our
editorial brethren; they understand the
thing better than we do, and can escape
with grace; but as nobody own us,
who are in the way of begging, we
have to give to every one-a dollar for
the foreign missionaries in India ;
| something for the missionaries among
the heather; trile for the tract So
ciety; together with sunday schools,
orphan asylums, widows, sc. sc. SC.
All this is very well; much l. due to
the charities, and something even to
the prejudices of the world.
The other day we had formal APP
plication made to us, from beautiful
pious young lady, with blue eyes and
an air of sweet meekness, altogether
irresistible, to give her two dollars, to
present to the Society for ameliorating
the condition of the Je,ns. 1t distressed
US to the heart to refuse any thing to
so fair an applicant, but we could not
stand an appeal so very palpable. "My
dear madam, our condition is perfectly
good-how can two dollars make it
better? We live happily in this blessed
land, God be praised, and our condi,
tion, not to be ungrateful, is as good as
our neighbors." She gave us to un,
derstand that it was our eternal, not
temporal, condition which she was SO
anxious to ameliorate in short, the
two dollars was 10 swell the fund crea'
ted to convert the Jews to Christianity
And is money to be offered for such
purposes How! buy converts to
Christianity? We admit no such sac
rilegous traffic. Having managed to
save the two dollars, promise was

God bless thee! was the last endearing word
The lip could utter, or the heart could feel'
But there was ONE from whom was only heard
God bless thee! and it was affections knen
For mary i lonely day. The very phrase
Was oftrepeated by the parting voice
Of youthful friendship; and the last farewell
Of some who lov'd me in my boyish days,
Was warm and fearful. Yet there was ONE,
Whose heart beat quicker than her eyes ran

Whose trembling lips refused to whisper more
Than that warm prayer. 1t was a hallowed

The greatest moralists have taught
that the advantage to ourselves is the
cultivation of benevolence into habit.
Much reflection, and too close inquiry,
leave time for the selfish passions to
stop a charitable impulse The man
who deliberates will generally button

aily some distress where there is sup

ANCIENT AND MODERN TINES.

1t is no unusual thing to draw COM
parison between ladies of the present
day and those who lived century ago;
but if we so back to the time OF Anna
Bulleyn, the contrast presents what APP
pears almost burlesque. AT that
time very few ladies went to court. Inc
great officers of state left their spouses
at home, at their magnificent mansions
in the country, to entertain their spor'
ting neighbours. Madam was then de-
lighted to have snug party dance IN
the parlour, with the squire and MS "a.

ORDINARY SECRETS OF HEALTH.

A fox-hunter can get drunk every
night in the year, and yet live to an old
age; but then he is all exercise and no
thought. A sedentary scholar shall
not be able to get drunk once in the
year with IMMUNITY but thought and
no exercise. Now, the greatest OBJ
ject is neither to get drunk, nor TO be
all exercise, nor to be all thought, but
to enjoy all our pleasures with a
sprighty reason. The four ordinary
secrets ofhealth are, early rising, exer-
else, personal cleanliness, and the rising
from table with stomach unoppress-
ed. There may be sorrows in spite of
these, but they will be less, and nobo-
dy can be truly comfortable without
them.
