THE HUNTERS BRIDE.

will go to the land where the hunters dwell
And build me hut in a sylvan dell
And my home shall be by that tranquil lake,
Which none but the hunters paddles break
Where the Indian boy in his bark canoe,
Like dolphin, cleaves the waters blue
And beneath the moon of a summer sky,
Basks in the light of his loy'd ones eye,
For long TO roam on the mountains side,
To hunt the deer as hunters bride.
Though coarse and rude is the mountain fare,
Yet pure is the breath of the mountain air
And rugged the path in the hunters way,
Yet sweet are his dreams at the close of day
Though toll and trouble his course pursue,
Health tnges his cheek with dusky hue;
And in heetness he rivals the wild gazelle--
And his heart in the forest can love so well
That long to roam on the mountain side,
And wear the garb ola hunters bride.
My joy shall be by the silent shore,
To watch the return of his flashing oar
And view on the breast of that limpid lake
The eddies around it in murmurs break
And ripple, and sparkle, and curl away
In the soothing beam of the silver ray:
And his heart shall gladden. to hear my song
Swell on the air as he paddles along
And meier will depart from that mountain side,
But share the fate Of hunters bride. V. & co

FATAL ERROR!

Isthere way of correcting that most meancho-
ly error in the public mind-that rolling on barrel
the body of person in state of suspended anima
ton from drowning, will resuscste it? Will not our
public prints, who alone have the means OF difusing
information through the great body OF the people,
and Of sending wholesome advice into the dark
corners, the hut, The howell and the house Of every
man in the republic lend their aid to the correction
of the evil Let every print in the United States
publish the following paragraph, and we hesitate
mol to say that the object will be attained for the
practice Of rolling barrel arises from the most
humane motives, and the instant that the error is
pointed out it will be corrected.
Robert Mills, formerly of Boston, and of respecta
bic connexions, was drowned in the Basin at Albany
few days since. He fell into the Basin and was
found in FIT ZEN MINUTES but all attempts
resuscitalion proved fruitless owing in great mea-
sure, to the body having been ROLLED ON A
BARREL before the arrival of physician.

SALEM. (N. u April ID


A curious incident occurred III this
town last week:-A lady's neck
handkerchief. with rufle finely en-
broidered, Iyingon a bureau ina cham-
Der at the Misses Hancock's, was rails
ed in their presence by a light breeze
scarcely perceptihle, and passing out
of the window, rose in a circultous
manner, something in appearance like
a kite, TO a great height, and then de-
secluded within thirty or forty rods
from whence it started nearly to the
ground. 1t then rose again, and IN a
few minutes passed out of sight, de.
m~onstratipg to its fair owner, that, if
"ali is" not "vanity," what is lighter
than air must be. Ii may not be amiss
10 caution the ladies not to let their
dresses become so light as that a guest
ofair may take the whole away, and
themselves too.

1t is proposed in the Philadelphia
papers to call convention, to meet at
Harrisburg 10 Augustor October next,
to take into consideration the question
ofiDternal improvement. It's propo-
sed that the meeting consists of dele
gates from all parts of the state. This
example is worthy of imitation else
where. The various interests by
which this country is divided, might
thus be represented 10 a general on
vention: by which they might be ena-
bled to ascertain their own strength
suggestplans andproiects fortheIr own
advantage, and for temperament pros
perity oftheir country at the same mo-
ment. Ii would be to follow up the
spirit of our republican Institutions
the representative system in the com
mon intercourse of life.-BaH. diner.
