And cOunlet'light the fearful cost

Still let the poets strain be hoard,
With "glory" for each second word,
And every thing with breath agree

ILLEGAL VoTING. by many, whose partisan
feelings preponderate over a sense of right, the
casting Of an Illegal vote is looked upon as a JUS
tifable, rather than a criminal act. But, how
ever excusable the act may appear in the eyes
of many, it is as justly punishable by the laws
Of the land, as robbing or stealing, and should
be visited, whenever detected, with their
severe penalties. One case OF the kind has
been detected in the October elections in Penn
sylvania, and it ought TO serve as a warning TO
all who look upon the breaking of the law by IL
legal voting as a light offence, A young man at
West Chester, Pa, has been sentenced TO eigh-
teen months imprisonment in the Philadelphia
PeniteBtiary for casting his vote at the late ge-
neral election, without being legally qualified
to do so. He came before the judges OF the elec-
he had paid a tax in that borough within two
years previous TO the election, and the judges
were proceeding to make out an order for the
reception of his vote, when a doubt having arts
en as TO his eligibility, the assessor was sent for
who affirmed that the person in question had ne
yer paid a tax, and never been assessed, but that
he had said when the assessor called upon him
for the purpose Of assessment, that he was a mi
nor. His vote was refused, and in a few days
thereafter he was apprehendcd, tried, convicted,
and sent to the penitentiary.

"Is SHE ENGAGED" is a question
not unfrequently mooted touching in.
tcresting young ladies. It's a pity
some generally received sign, bearing
upon the question, could not be adopt
ed BY the sex. 1t would satisfy a very
natural curiosity, and might not be to
the disadvantage Of the ladies. In a
dissenting chapel, in England, a for
eiguer noticed the ladies' bows on their
bonnets oddly arranged, some on the
left and others on the right side. while
others we're directly in front. 1t was
found, on enquiry, that married ladies
had the bow on the right side, young
maidens on the left, and those "enga.
ged wore them on the front Of their
Gonnets. A manifestation of this kind,
would save much needless solieitude
and enquiry among those gentlemen
who are candidates for matrimony.-

INDIAN Observation-Disclosures
correspondents Of two ofthe New York
papers give IN account of a most sin
gular movement of body ofSouthern
Indians. This step gives a stronger
indication of the disposition to strike
under, than any thing which we have
yet seen.
The writer Of the Journal Of Com
merce states, "that on the 18th of DC.
tober, some $50 or 500 Indians, inclu-
ding $50 men, suddenly presented
themselves to the commanding officer
at Irwinton, on the Chattahoochee, and
gave themselves up as Creek Indians.
None of the Creeks rocollcct ever TO
have seen a single individual of the
party before. The strongpresumption
is that they are Seminoles who have
thus given themselves up as Creeks
this supposition is supported by the fact
that some few days previous to the sur
render Of the party alluded TO, an intel
ligent resident of the neighborhood OF
lrwlnton, came Unexpectedly on a par
ty OF ten or twelve Indians, who were
too busily engaged in cutting up a new
killed deer 10 observe him. He was
on horse back, and not at all uneasy
at the meeting. This gentleman was
near enough TO distinctly observe the
Indians, and although he had a very
general acquaintance with the Creek
Indians, he felt assured these Indians
were no Greeks. It would not be q
