Arno in anguish sought his wife,
He scann'd each dell and mountain height
At length midst screaming eagles strife,
Her haggard form broke on his sight.
He heard afar her thrilling voice
The wth'ring accents perc'd his heart -
Those sounds that made him once rejoice,
Now nought but anguish could mpart
Arno, place here thy fatal steel
IT'S here feel the vital pain:
This life must ebb, ere can feel.
The love I've lost and would regain.
No scenes OF earth can eer recover,
The bliss, the JOY, the love I've lost
Nor mother, sister, brother, lover,
Can ever tell the grefit cost.
"But have found Saviour's love-
My hope is there.-Arno farewell -
Seek, seek for happiness above
There may we meet-there NAV we dwell"
She press'd his hand-'twas to forgive
Her wandering eyes in darkness rod -
Saviour !" she cried. "let me but live,
To scenes of bliss by Thee controlled"
The following heart-rending and uncommonl,
beautiful lines, found in the little volume emit
tied "LEIsURE Hours AT SEA-"
THE SONG OF ROSE WESTON.
The lines were suggested by that part of open
Owen" where it describes the aifiction-the mute
and uncomplanng grief of the beautiful, faded, and
credulous Rose Weston, when she was informed of
the baseness and desertion of her seducer, Frank
Whettenhall
They tell me thou hast gone from me
Der the wide and stormy sea;
I'll not believe the tale they tell
Thou wouldst at least have said, farewell,
They tell me that thy alterd brow
Retains no trace of beauty now
That sin and shame have blanch'd thee pale
III not believe the sland'rOuS tale
Thy bloom is gone-perhaps it fed
Quench'd by the tears that thou hast shed
Thinking Of her-Ill not upbrad thee
am, alas what thou hast made me.
would not weep this last adieu
Could believe thee else than true;
1t IT'S dream, and should wake
TO know thee false, my heart would break
My days on earth have aeeted fast,
And have lov'd thee 20 the last
Thy fatal love hath ruin'd me,
But my last thoughts prayer for thee
LOVES LANGUAGE.
There's language that's mute there's silence
that speaks,
There is something that cannot be told,

Isaac 3. Desha@Tbis wretched man will
probably recover of the CHASTITY wound which he
Inflicted upon his own neck. We have no very
late accounts, should have had If he had
died The Cynthiana paper Of Friday the 22nd,
contains a statement of his case, drawn up by his
surgeons of which the following are the concluding
paragraphs
" He can now sit, stand, walk or lie, as incli-
nation and comfort require. His confinement for
period OF twenty months in Jail, his abstinence
for some lime previous to the iniliction of the nu-
ry, and the loss of blood at the time, all conspired
10 render his case less fatal than would have been
under other circumstances. The wound is now
suppurating kindly, small examinations are spring.

but little, re,ts tolerably well Of nights takes food
IN sufficient quantity, and the WHOLE there are no
symptoms threatening Immediate danger
:" He is an affecting spectacle. A combination
OF circumstances have made the unhappy man cx-
tensively known, and we have been thus minute in
detailing the case, and endeavoring TO free 1t of
iechncality, in order that all may understand il

Switzerland will also proceed to recognize it, and
the u. States of America. On the day OF the an
niversary of his fathers departure from Brazil he
received the news of his death. He then proceeds
to state the measures which he adopted in conse-
quence OF this event, - his abdicaton in favour of
Donna Maria ii.
He, in conclusion, calls the attention of the As
semby to the subject of Education and Public
Stores and Establishments.
The Assembly in reply, echo his speech, and
promise TO promote his views, as far as in their
power.

From C0ionbid.- We have conversed with
Mr.. Jefferson b. Nones, passenger in the schooner
Ceres, from Maracaibo, which place he left on the
18th OF July. The government of Maracaibo was
strongly opposed 10 the movement of Gen. Paez,
and had declared in favor of the government and
constitution, in which sentiments Admiral Pa
dilla had concurred. Col. Avadonio displaced
from the command of Laguyra, by Generals Paez
and Escalon, had arrived at Maracaibo from We
nezuela, on express TO Bogoa. The government
to the leeward of Maracaibo have also decla ed for
Bolivar. The general opinion was, that Paez
would be punished and tranquility restored on the
return OF the Liberator.

act for the establishment of religious freedom-who
so long presided over the Councils and The destiny

cheering voice--to him and to his compairiots
are we indebted for the assertion Of the sacred
principle, that men are capsule Of governing
themselves. In him religious liberty found her
earliest and most ardent supporter-briDsing with
him into the Councils ofthis country the mild spi-
rt Of Philosophy, he has devoted long life to the
improvement of the condition OF mankind The
renown Of the warrior is connected with the
slaughter OF the human family; and the laurel
which adorns his brow, is mostened with human
tears and wet with human blood; but the honours
which await the memory of Thomas Jefferson, o.
riglnate IN ibe best affections OF The human heart,
and are associated with the happiness Of man
throughout the world. In the Institutions, Lite
rary as well as Political, of his native country,
monument 10 his fame has been erected, which can
neither be forgotten nor neglected 80 long as the
love ofliberty shall animate the breast of man
Virginia was yet in her first grief for the loss of
her most venerable statesman, when the voice
Of woe reached Us from our eastern sister, an

was closed on the same day, which by their united

you are the representatives, Gentlemen, has conf

When Europe feels more deeply than ever that
