have so repeatedly reminded my friends and the public, of the necessity of their lend ing liberal support to the establishment, that were l to continue the call-without an a. pology,--it would seem to carry a tone of com plaint with it. This is far from my intention; it would be treating a generous and liberal public with great injustice and ingratitnde. The support has been beyond my expecta- tions but at most it necessarily must be in considerable in town of the age and limited population of Tuscaloosa.
 Ibeieve all will admit that a Book and Sta tionary establishment is an important acqui- sitien to our town, and permanent benefit to the country-and such will permit me again to oremark, that its present success, until our public institutions are further advanced, re- quires all the support that the liberal and well wishing Can bestow.

 The broken and superannueted Gloucester. He seemed as one beref of life,
 So languid and foflorn For broke he was poor desperate wretch: His money was all gone! The adverse winds that Fate decrees,
 Had settled on him now; His youthful years had passed away,
 And age had stamped his brow. His deeds were dark-lie seemed to hate The glare of morning light; For he, poor fool, had played at cards
 And sat up all the night! Now lone the breeze did sigh along,
 Nor could he find friend; To raise the wind he knew not how;
 No one Ut hand would lend His blood-shot eyes and haggard brow
 Bespoke mind of care; His smile was that of wan despar---
 The world looked bleak and drear! For doomed lie was to tread the paths
 Ofpenury and wo- And when he died he knew he would.
 To H-ll tumbling goi The times they were so sadly changed, g He could not find resource; But they had been suspicious to,
 When fortune crowned his course, | He sought to find resting place,
 Securely lone to die-- His debts accumulated large,
 Despair was in his eye. He cursed himself, the times, the world,
 And looked and sighed forlon- His former friends, when fortune smiled
 Now passed him by with scorn. To stem the tide of life's career,
 And each ones sins forgive O! were it so ordained that all
 A happy life could live. To glide securely as the stream,
 And live secure ffsm strife; And sheltered too from all the wrongs
 The whips and scorns" of life. And when it was decreed, for us,
 By Him who reigns above We all might die content and go
 To everlasting love. W

She paused to ccnsiderhrr situation, and was anXiously locking towards the desired haven, when an honest Tar, with a canvass hat and blue ribbon bearing the name of the .tU. s.
