CLING NOT TO EARTH.

Cling not to earth-,here's nothing there,
However loyei--however fair,
But on its features still must wear
The impress of mortality.
The voysger on the boundless deep,
Within bis bsrque may smile or sleep
But bear him on-he viii not weep
To leave its wild uncertainty.
Cling not to earth-as well We may
Trust Asia's serpeni's wanton play,
That glitters only 10 betray
To death-or else to misery.
Dream not of friendship-there may be
A word, ssmile, a gasp for thee
But wait the hour OF need. and see
But wonder not--their fallacy.
Think not Of B~eauty-like the rest
II bears A lustre on it's crest
But short the time ere stands contest
Its ialseh0od-or its fra,ity.
Then cling no more so fondly on
The flowers Of earth around thee slrown--
They'd do a while to sport upon.
But not 10 love 50 f%ervently.

HUNTSVILLE, ALA. July 81.
An unfortunate rencontre took place in
this town on Monday evening last, be-
tween two of our citizens. James w.
M'Clung, Esq. and Mr.. Andrew Wills,
which eventusted in the death of the
latter. The circumstances Of which the
quarrel arose, we unde rstand were brief
ly as follow: A short time since. a com.
munication signed'P airick Hsnry,' was
published in the paper called the De-
mocrat,edited by Wills, containing some
eve structures upon the conduct If
Mr. M'Clung, which be considered Who'll
ly unjusti6able s. highly injurious to bis
character. He of course a few days
ago, called upon the editor, and de-
manded the name of the author of the
piece. This demand was at first refused.
but al length an iniimation was given
him that the name would be given up
upon Monday next When the Cay arr
rived MIR. Wills appeared in biz Office
armed, and refused to comply with the
demand, or to make the satisfaction re-
quired by Mr.. M'Clung.
Several attempts were made by the
citizens during the day to bring about a
settlement of the matter between the
parties, which proved u~nava,ling. They
met in the evening in one of the streets.
both armed, when the ~rencontre immedi-
ately ensued, and Mr.. Wills was shot,
and expired in about two hours after.
