-"At the request of the prisoner, | wrote

Such are the incidents in this historic
tragedy. They disclose all the traits of
character and conduct which we specified
in the commencement Of this article. The
statement is shocking to humanity; and for
the honor Of our country's name for the
honor of our military reputation ; for the
honor of Gen. Jackson himself, we would
that the facts had never taken place. AS
1t is, we lay them before our readers with
out any exaggeration of comment. 1t is
due to tho people that the facts should oe
known. They have been already so wide
ly disseminated, that it is due to Gen. Jack.
son, if they are ms stated, that his friends
should instantly correct the mis- statement;
and if they are correctly given-and they
are given on the testimony OF four witness
scs-they cannot be too extensively cireu-
lated. The genius Of our institutions for
bids that the civil government Of the I'm
ION should be committed to one who has
exhibited such powerful evidence of dis
position to trample down individual rights,
and to exercise power with such an arbi-
trary will.

.4nother Soldier shot We have no de.
sire to lend our aid to the circulation of
charges against Gen. Jackson, unless they
are supported by evidence. But when Sc
rious churges-charges which impute in.
humanity and cruelty, violence and llcen.
tiousness Of power, and disregard of the
rights, feelings, and lives, of his fellow cit.

tiated by multiplied certificates, we hold it
to be our solemn duty, regarding the stua-
tion which Gen Jackson, occupies before
the nation, and the high object to which
his restless ambition aspires, to state the
facts and the testimony, that the people may
have in their possession that knowledge of

his claims to appreciation and honor.

WOMAN'S HEART.

aAlas that man ,hould ever win
So sweet a shrine to shame and sin,
As woman's heart. Il f.. l..
;3av, what is Womau's Heart A thing
Where all the deepest feelings spring,
A harp whose tender chords reply
Unto the touch in harmony,
A world whose fairy scenes arc fraught
With all the colored dreams of thought,
A bark that still will blindy move
Upon the treacherous seas of love.
What is its love a ceaseless stream,
A changeless star and endless dream,
A smiling flower that will not die,
"A beauty and mystery -
Its storms as light as April showers,
Its Joys as bright as April flowers,
Its hopes as sweet as summer air,I
And dark as winter its despair.
What are its hopes, Rainbows that throw
A radiant light where or they 60,
Smiling when heaven is overcast,
Yet melting into storms at last;
Bright cheats, that come with siren words,
Beguilng it, like summer birds,
That stay while nature round them blooms,
But flee away when winter comes.
What is its hate A passing frown,
A single weed mid blossoms sown,
That cannot flourish there for long,
A harsh note in angels song,
A summer cloud that all the while
Is ligbtened by a sun-beam's smile;
A passion that scarce hath Il part
Amidst the gems Of womans heart,
And what is its despair A deep
Fever that leaves no tears to weep
A wo that works with silent power,
As canker-worms destroy flower
A.viper that shows net, it wakes,
Until the heart tpreys on breaks;
A mist that robs a star of light,
And wraps it up in darkest night
Then what is Woman's Heart? A thing
Where all tho deepest feelings spring,
A harp whose tender chords reply
Unto the touch in harmony,
A world whose fairy scenes are fraught
With all the colored dreams of thought,
A bark that still will blindly move
Upon tho tIeacherous seas of love.
