SLAVES, FREE NEGROES, &c.

Mr.. Dabney presented a petition Of
sundry citizens of the county of King
William, for the removal of the free
people of color from the Commonwealth,
and for the purchase Of portion of he
slaves, and their removal.
Mr.. Dabney remarked, in presenting
this petition, he regretted it had not
reached him earlier, and before the COM
mittee on the subject had reported. He
had arrived at the same conclusion with
the committee, that nothing could be
done beyond the removal of the free ne
groes. But in compliance with the will
of his constituents. he might be willing
to go so far as to agree to the passage of
law for sending out Of the country all
slaves voluntarily emancipated. But be-
yond this he could not go.
Mr.. Sims moved to lay the petition
on the table, which was opposed
by Mr.. Dabney, who urged its refer
ence.
Mr.. Sims replied, observing that as
there was now before the House q mo-
ton to discharge the Committee from the
further consideration of the subject, and
as report from the Committee had
already been presented, he thought it
improper to refer this petition.
The petition having been read on mo-
ton of Mr.. Moore, Mr.. Sims withdrew
his motion to lay on the table, and it was
referred.

COUGH proceeds from various causes, bav
whatever may be its origin, it should always,
in northern ATTITUDES receive the speedy atterS,
ton of the person who is suffering under ia.
By neglect, cough, which could have been
removed in few days, may become disease
of very serious nature. Nh yt ~
When cough appears never neglect it. In
the early stage, slight fever and other infiam.
matory symptoms are frequently its attendants.
In this state of cold, many use heating rem.
jedies-They should never be applied during
the prevalence of inhammatory action. There
fore opium-paregoric and all preparations
with Laudanum or opium should be prohibited.
Cough preparations are plentifully distributed
through our country-but many Of them are
objectionable because of the stimulanto they
contain. Some of them may be very proper
and useful in chronic cough, but should not ho
tasted while an infammatory condition prevails
they then do mischief, and hurry the person
into consumption.
This cough syrup has no stimulant ingre-
\ dients. 1t will be useful in all the stages of
cough while inhammatory action prevails, and
will in any case lessen the danger of inflamma.
ton OF the lungs-and in many cases soon pro-
lduce complete cure.

Onthe beauty Of that brow,
Ror deaths cold hand is passing DER f,

Upon the glazed eye,
Are aellmg to thy breaking heart,

Yes, mother Of the dying one,
The beautiful must go!
The pailid check and fading eye,
And trembling lip of snow,
Are sgnets from the hand of death,
When unseen angels come
~ To bear the young and beautiful
To their own happy home.

~ May never more entwine
It's arms around the mothers neck
Like tendrils of the vine; i.t, .f 5t

Along the forehead fair,

That cluster thickly there.

The music of its mirth,s
Shall never more make glad the hearts Is

Then look thy last, fond mother!
For the earth shall be above,
And curtainup that sleeping one.
The FIRST born of thy love.
But let thy burning thoughts go forth.
And pray that thou may'st meet
That sinlcss one, where worlds shall bow
Before the judgment seat; 4,,
And pray, that when the wing Of death
Is Swallowed on thy brow,

IL is also said that some Americans who were to have been in the action, did not behave with that courage, so great an ingredient in the composition of every son of Columbia. Again we state that this news is not so authentic as we should like to have it, as the gentleman who wrote the letter says he heard if. 1t carries however the face of probability and we are in- clined to believe the statement-Colo- nel Piedras has certainly behaved with determination, bat this might have been
 expected; he is a good soldier, and q man with whom those who have had
 the pleasure of his acquaintance, have

 much inclined to believe that it is a
 matter of very little consideration
 among the residents of Texas. for they
 will live quite as happily under one go- yernment as another, and from the ma
