when Fortune smiles, and life j. far,
Seek not the gem of Friendship there
When true and false arc ninsiing near,
They both may seem alike sincere
Bat v hen the storms OF sorrow lower,
And pale Distress asserts her power,
The clouds that first o'crcaat the sky
Will bid the friends Of fortune Ay
But one WHO truly lov'd before
VIII only change to love thee more,

The Missouri intelllgencer published at Fayette
states that there had been, for some days previous
to the 2isi ult frequent passing of wagons thro'
that town, accompanied by men armed with guns
and dogs. They were generally bound for the
head waters of Charlton, Grand, and some as far
as the Des Monies rivers. Bee-hunting From
four to i've men usually accompany each wagon,
and team OF Tour, five or six horses, provided
with provisions for an absence of from three TO
i've weeks: 1T was also stated that no less than
forty wagons, thus equipped, were going from that
country alone, in search of one of the articles for
which Canaan was so celebraied; and that cor
responding nunber, in proportion to the popua-
ton, would set forth from the ten or twelve ada
