Bridge across the OAio.-We un-
derstand that books were opened in this
town on Saturday last for the subscrip'
ton OF stock to erect a bridge across
the Ohio river at this own, and that
on yesterday the whole amount DEEM
ed necessary ($2oo, ooo) had been
taken. Ii is said that arrangements
will speedily be made to commence
the work. We tender our congratu-
lations to our townsmen on this auspi,
cious event.
The books were opened under the
laws of the legislature of Virginia and
OHIO, passe about 10 years ago. Vi

but six are still living, all Of whom at
tended here on Saturday-three from
each state. This is said to have been
the minimum number required by the
law ; consequently had one more been
removed by death the laws must have
been re-enacted. Whether chart ers
so favorable could now be obtained j,
doubtful.-Gdz.

Boundary War!

We regret to learn that blood has
been shed in New Hampshire, relative
to disputed boundary question. The
Boston Gazette says: "At the last
session of the Legislature Of New
Hampshire, a tract of country called
the Indian Stream Settlement, on the
borders of Canada, between two bran
ches of Connecticut river, was by law
annexed to the jurisdiction of New
Hampshire. The Nawburyport Her
aid publishes letter, dated Columbia,
N. H. Nov. A, which states that a
conflict had taken place between the
sheriff of the county with party of
militia, and the inhabitants Of the set.
Element, who united TO resist the SER
vice Of civil process on one Of their
number. In the contest three Of the
inhabitants were killed and five woun-
ded, and several Of the militia were
wounded, some of them mortally. 1t
is to be regretted that this question of
boundary has never been settled by the
Government, instead Of being left to
be subject Of angry controversy with
the ignorant Inhabitants.

nexed particulars in the Concord IN.
Fl. Statesman, il would seem that no
lives were lost in the affray on the
Northern frontier of that State, as re-.
ported by previous adyices:

the Indian Stream country, where, as
it appears, the affairs of the settlers are
not in very quiet condition. Since
our last advices the British authorities
have invaded the territory, and citi-
zen had been carried off, in success

blood has been spill, although no lives
lost as yet. We can only express what
we have before, that il New Hamp-
shire means TO maintain her jurisdicr
tion there, there IS necessity Tor speedy
and efficient actioa.
SIT may be we'll to mention that the
citizen was rescued, and the shots fir.
ed in The Province of Canada and no,
in Nav Hampshire.
"After giving an account Of the ar

Well make il you please, sir,a Friendship Of him.

CONSIDER THE END.

The shape and character which our hves
assume, are so uniformly the result of our
actions, that if it were possible to foresee the
course OF conduct which young man setting
out in life, would pursue, there would be dif-
ficulty IN foreteling with great precision, the
result. So invariably do we shape our des-
TIMES and so universally do causes and eff
fects travel with each other. Hence the Of
ten repeated maxim, "a man may be what
ever he ,cM be-"
II is the want Of due consideration-pot
the want Of good sense, that ruins thousands
the neglect to exercise thinking and rea-
soning powers which they have, rather than
any natural deficiency of intellect which
makes so many shipwrecks along the voyage
of life. Ii is that men in rnultitudes yield to
temptations, indulge in habits, and lend them
selves to practices Of which they do not con-
slider the end.

THE DYING FLOWER.


IL Is wasting away-a beautiful flower,
In the path that is trodden aud trampled by men,
And never to field nor To bIossoming bower,
Shall its presence give life aud gladness again.
The way fhrer's foot on its petals is laid,
And the gravel marreth its velvet bloom;
Nor the morning sun, nor the evening shade,
Its perishing beauty can ever reiume.
The infant stoops down.to In up its stem,
Aud he blows in its cup with his balmy breath,
But the leaves fall apart, like some broken gem;
Ye may kill, but who restore IRON death!
And now they are eddying high in air,
With n wave like motion round and round,
Not long will'the wind its burden bear;
Lo' they are dropping again To the ground.
oh! thus, like the delicate summer blossom,
DO the lovely and good breathe life away,
And the turf that is rounded over their bosom,
Is heedlessly trod by the idle and gay;
Yet boots il not much; when the bloom is fed,
And the light is gone from the lustrous eye
And the sensitive heart is cold and dead,
Where the mouidering ashes are left to lie
II matters not much. IL the soaring mind,
Like the flowers perfume, was exhaed to Heaven
That its earthly shroud be cast behind,
To decay wherever place is given.

WORMS AND FLOWERS.

BY JAMES MONTGOMERY.
You're spinning for my lady, worm!
Silk garments for the fair;
You're spinning rainbows for form
More beautiful than air,
When air is bright with sun-beams,
And morning mists arise
From woody wales and moun,sin-stroams,
To blue autumnal skies.
You're springing for my lady, flower!
You're training for my love,
The glory Of her summer-bower.
While sky-arks soar above:
Go, twine her locks with rose buds,
Or breathe upon her breast.
While cephyS curl the er-hoods,
And rock the halcyon's nest.
But, oh! there is another worm
Ere long will visit her,
And revel on her lovely form,
In the dark se2ulcbre;
Yet from that sepulchre shall spring,
A flower as sweet as this;
Hard by the nightingale shall sing,
Soft winds its petals kiss.
Frail emblems Of lra beauty, ye!
In beauty who would trust!
Since all that charms the eye must be
Consigned to worms and dust:
Yet like the flower that decks her tomb,
Her spirit shall quit the sod,
Te shine in amaranthine bloom,
Fast by the Throne Of God.
