following days, and, after an obstinate engage

The majority Of Mr.. WILLIAMS, over his OPP

election in this District, in which, from Mr..
WIS decided political course, more than COM
mon interest was felt abroad, we copy the fol
lowing extract Of a letter from the Raleigh Re-
gister:
Sour electionis just over, and embrace the
earliest opportunity Of communicating the re-
suit. The contest in this county, (Wilkes) has
been marked with some degree OF warmth. j he
Presidential question was made the rallying
poin, Gas far as the friends Of General Jackson
could make it SOY in our Congressional and
Senatorial election, and ii has not resulted
much to their advantage. Every exertion wss
used, every nerve strained 10 the utmost on their
part, but all would not do The friends OF the
| Administration remained firm and inllexlble TO
their purpose, alike needless and unmoved by
the clamor by which they were surrounded. Mr.
Williams is reelected TO Congress in the Dis
lrict by majority Of upwards of 1900 votes
His majority is greater than his most sangulne
.frlenos calculated upon, he having been contln-
ed at home the greater part OF the Summer, IN
consequence of the extreme i'll health OF his
fa,her-and thereby prevented from reou'ting
many Of the slanderous charges propagated a.
gainst him."

Of them Mr. CuLrErsR, one Of the new mem

THE PAR TING.

Cold as the grave can make it
That faithful heat must be.
Whose light would not torsake it
In parting thus from me.
When hand in hand is warmly prest,
Alas who does not know,
That tears swell lgh in many breast
Too proud to let them flow.
Go-and may every sorrow
Be distant from thy way,
And every new tomorrow
BE happier than to-day.
May sunshine smile through every storm
And ralnbows through the showers,
While thy mild heaven is clear and warRI,
And never cold like ours.
If innocence and beauty
Conciliate human love,
If high regard for duty
Can find friend above,
No power thy pleasures can destroy
While love or friendship lives,
And will ask no purer Joy
Than this remembrance gives.

We come to me with eyes of light
Far creatures Of my dreams
Ye move around me calm and bright,
Like sunset over streams,
Where the last flush of dying day
In liquid lustre glows,
Then passes into night away,
Like RAIN drops from rose.
Fair creatures soft YOUR voices are
hear their tender tone
And all the twilight echoes hear
Their melody alone
1t fills the woods, the rocks. the plain,
With an pervading thrill;
And listening to an invisible strain,
The breathless air is still.
All innocent your beauty blows
IT'S bright and purely fair,
The rose-the young and virgin rose
Buds forth in sweetness there,
And there are Light and laughing eyes,
That have never wept in pain
Hope beckons rou on, as away she fies,
And love, that must all be vain
Yet stay, far creature bid you stay,
For with you my dreams are heaven
Too soon the vision must fade away
Not forever these joys were given
Bend over me now that winning smile,
That lingering look of Light
Ye tade-O pause-and charm awhile,
Ele ye vanish away in night
