For the Intelligencer. THE MOCKING BIRD,

Q! how love thy pleasing lay, hich iailS so sweetly on my ear, To usher in the rising day, With melody most soft and clear. Thou hast music in thy strS;n, Unlike t1 aught I've heard before, Which soothes the heart oft touched with pain, Bleeding at every opening pore. Thy varied notes how delicate! So tenderly they rise and fall As Il with sacred joy elate, Thou dldst on me, for praises call would obey thy soothing voice If had power like thee to sing, And make these verdant groves rejoice, Tins still retreat with music ring. But welcome 10 thy song, sweet bird, Where peace and sacred stiffness reign Here shall thy artess notes be heard, Thy fond adnirer to retain. The breath of spring thou shalt inhale, And dwell among these fragrant bowers, Upon thy choicest sweets iegae, And rest thy bosom on their flowers. No one shall interrupt t.y lay, By harsher sounds quie dissonant, Whlie thou ant waibling all the day, With limitations innocent. Ihou hast no restless wanderings, To leave thy own delightful cline, No yaln aud wild imaginings, ln borrowed plumage ere to shine. Thou hast the native gift alone. The genius of inspiring song, To make all other notes thy own, As if they did to thee belong.
 
 Thy every carol seems to breathe The very note O. sympathy, As if the heart thou couldst relieve, Ofa it's inward agony. Thou art like some Eolan Tyre, Which varies at the breath of even To charm me like an angel quire Echoing through the arch of Heaven. Thy harp is always newly strung, . No chord unloosed by sorrows hand, On it's wild warblings long I've hung, Thou sweet enchanress of this land. I've heard thee when captive chained, Far from thy native woodlands dear, Thy music then, my bosom pained, For pity claimed the falling tear. hear thee now with joyful heart, Sweet brd-the object of my song Thou shalt not from thy home depart, Freedom and peace, are all thy own. 5.

Il The United States Telegraph of Tuesday
$cantains letter, seven columns in length,
addressed BY SAMUEL ID. INGsAM, late Sc
sretary Of the Treasury, to the President of
the United States. The subject Of this let
ter, which is founded upon the letter of Mr.
TRisT to the tx Secretary, so much occu-
pies just now the public mind, that we shall
endeaver to lay it before our readers as soon
as we conveniently can. The most material
point made in it is direct charge that the
President was privy to the challenge Of mr.
INeHAM by Mr. EAToN, and also to the de-
sign Of the latter to make an attack upon the
former.
We beg leave to call the particular atten-
tien of our readers 10 the address OF Mr.
BERRlEN, contained in to days paper. To
enable the reader to possess himself OF the
facts, SO far as they have been dIvulged, we
mentisn that this address was preceded by a
correspondence between Mr.. BERgiEN and
the Editor of the Globe, which prepared the
way for its appearance at an earlier date than
had been contemplated The name of Mr..
b having been used by the editor of the
Globe in one of his articles upon this subject,
coupled with Misrepresentation. was the
cause Of this correspondence; want OF roam
prevents us from laying the whole before
our readers this week
The address of Mr. BEaRIEN is decidedly
the most fatal blow, which the administration
has yet received. What government and
what cabinet We have presented before
US the spectacle of President exerting his
whole Executive Influence to force into SO
ciety, woman with whom the rirtuous la
dies of the City refused to assocIate--of a
President who is trying to fix the charge OF
falsehood upon three Of bis confidential min
listers Of State. but who, unfortunately for
the credit of the nation, have triumphantly
fixed it upon hin,--of a Secretary Of the
Treasury, charging an attempt at assassnla-
ton, upon the Secretary OF War--and OF
members Of Congress and other high officers
Of the government, terminating and reclini
mating each other in style OF gross, vulgar
and ierocious scurrility--ln what is this 10
endp-Caa government last with such men
at its head?-it is impossible.
Reader! examine this address Of BERRIEN!
lit is a dark and melancholy page upon the
history of this nation--but read it, and from
it, learn to estimate the low, vulgar and con
temp,ble dotard who now Yields the power
and furnishes the glory Of eAlnerlcan ration

was the only alternative left TO him The
President was. day after day, through the
editor of the GLOBE, feeding that press, with
falsehoods and equvsca.lens. 1t was no
bic and an independent step. He correctly
estimates the American character, in saying,
they will uphold truth against the corrupt ex-
srcise OF Executive power.

There is really what the.newspapers have
long said it to be, the age Of wonders, no
one will deny who reads the following FROM
the Charleston Courier;-
"Siag'dar Traasfo1mation were yea
