BY MRS. SARAH JANE HALA
HNHERE Is no form, upon our earh,
IL That bears the mighty Makers seal,
But has some charm-to draw this forth,
We need but hearts to feel.
I saw a fair young grl-her face
Was sweet as dream Of CHERISHED fricnt-
Just At the age when childhood's grace
And maiden softness blend.
A silk worm in her hand she laid,
Nor fear, nor yet disgust was stirred;
But gaiiy with her charge she play'd,
As 'twere a nesting bird.
She raised It to her dimple cheek,
And let it rest and revel there
o, why for outward beauty seek!
Love makes its favourites fair.
That worm--I should have shrunk, In truth,
To feel the reptile DER me move,
But loved by innocence and youth,
deemed ii worthy love.
Would we, thought, the soul imbue,
In early life, sympathies
For every harmless thing and view
Such creatures formed to please
And when with usefulness combined,
oiva than, .>,.- low gvntIc caro-
o, we might have world as kind
As God has made 1t fair!
There is no form upon our earth,
That bears the mighty Makers seal,
But has some charm-to call this forth,
We need but hearts To feel.

NOW is THE TIME.

n BARGAIN may be had, and il
IN required, a credit of one, two
and threee years, ON early application
to the subscriber in Charlottesville, in
The purchase of Tract of Land on A
dams Creek in the County of Fluvanna,
being Immediately below Major Tomp-
kins,-adjoining his land and others,
distant from Charlottesville, about III
miles, and within two Of the Union, and
Mr.. Campbel's Merchant Mills, a navi-
gablefork of the James River. This
tract contains by late survey,
40 ACRES.
Its length is much greater than the
width, which can be conveniently di-
vided into two tracts of equal size, pos
sessing advantages nearly alike. The
creek mentioned above, runs the whole
length of the land, and nearly throup h
the centre, and is sufficiently large for
a grist or saw mill, with good and
suitable site for building, which can be
effected at a very trifling expense
all the materials being very convenien,
particularly rock, of an excellent quail
ity, which can be had oman emInence
within 100 feet Of the place, and rolled
to the spot for building with very little
labor. There is cleared land from l3O
to $50 acres, part of which is very
good, the other has been injured by
repeated cultivation, but can he easily
reclaimed by proper management, il
being well adapted TO clover, wheat, &c
all the balance is heavily timbered with
pine and oak, 60 or 20 acres of good
tobacco land, and about the same oil
bottom, suitable for meadow.
This tract has many advantages &c
recommend It, such as healthy stu.
alton, abundantly supplied with gnod
water, an excellent range for cattle
&c, and convenient market.

fLOPBMENT.

I circumstance recently occurred ID
PHILADELPHIA which has caused much eX-
element among the inhabitants. II is
pleasing symptom when such instances Of
depravity are viewed with astonIshment by
the people, as that astonishment prove tne
unfreouency of the crime. A respectable
merchant, who resides in the western part
of the city was married 10 lady Tor whom
he had the most lively affection, ana DC
lieved his attachment was recIprocaIed.
They lived together happily for several
years, and a promising son ccmen'ed lheir
unlou. But their paradise was poisoned
by a serpent in the shape OF iorelgn
consul. who took up his residence IN
house opposite to the dwelling OF Mir

with his character. insInuated himself lnio

Intercourse was for some time carried OH
between them, without any suspicion on
the part of tie husband or their acqualn-
lance. Mr. F@@7 observed with grief that
the affections of his lady we're aitenated,
but he was wholly ignorant OF the cause.
At tins time she proposed a visit to one OF
his relations. residing at an excellent villa
in the noghborhood of Tie city; as It was
one of the chief objects Of his life 20 cOu-
tribute to her happiness, ne readily consen-
ted to this visit. After remaining IN the
country fora short time. she desired their
son might be left behind. However sur
Drised at this request, he made no oPposl-
lion. and the mother, with feelings scarce
" TO be conceived, took leave Of her lnno-
cent son. on whom She was about to loillct
qa irrepara5lei1iury. She embraced hm
with maternal tenderness, aud said. "m'
dear child / shall never sec you again"
Mr. and his lady returned TO the city,
and she shortly afterwards disappeared
from her dwelling; no intelligence Of the
fugitive has since been received. The
consul disappeared at the same time, and
various other circumstances leave 10 doubt
but what they went of together

ales the happiness Of one Of our most val
ued citizens. Surely the stones OF the
streets would almost arise spontaneously
20 vindicate the wrong! The most sacred
ties have been broken, the hottest in
stuution Of heaven corrupted, by an uu-
foreigner. For the woman who
has participated IN this crime, her offence
will no its own punishment; abandoned by
tie man who has received her, her rCputa-
ton lost, and the stings Of remorse in her
she will shortly become an OBJ
icct to be regarded only with pity or horror.
