MooRE's DESCRIPTION on zELrcA's GRIEF.

MooRE's DESCRIPTION OF zELIcA's GRIEF.
Oh grief, beyond all other griefs, when fato
First leaves the young heart lone and desolate
In the wide world, without that only tie
For which it lov'd to live or fear'd to de;--
Lorn as the hung-np Lutte, that ne'er hath spoken
Since the sad day its master-chord was broken!
Fond made, the sorrow Of her soul was such,
Ev'n reason sunk blghted beneath its touch;
And though, ere long, her sanguine spirit rose
Above the first dead pressure of its woes,
Tho health and bloom return'd, the delicate
chain
or thought, once tangled, never clear'd again.
Warm, lively, soft as in youths happiest day,
The mind was still all there, but turn d astray
A wandering bark, upon whose pathway shone
All stars of heav'n, except the guiding one!
Again she smil'd nay, much and brightly amil d,
But twas lussre, strange, unreal, wild;
And when she sung to her lute's touching strain,
Twas like the notes, half ecstasy, half pain.
The bulbul utters, ere her soul depart,
When, yanquish'd by some minstrel's powerful
art,
She dies upon the Lutte whose sweetness broke
her heart!

BYaoN's NOTIONS OF SOLITUDE.

To sit on rocks, to muse DER food and fell,
To slowly trace the forests shady scene,
Where things that own not mans dominion
dwell,
And mortal foot hath meier or rarely been;
To climb the trackless mountain all unseen,
With the wild flock that never needs fold,
Alone DER sleeps and foaming falls to lean;
This is not solitude; tits but to hold
Converse with natures CHAINS, and see her stores
unroll'd.
But midst the crowd, the hum, the shock Of
men
To hear, to see, to feel, and to possess,
And roam along, the worlds tir'd denizen,
With none who bless US none whom we can
bless;
Minions of splendour shrinking from DISTRESS
None that, with kindred consciousness en-.
dued,
five were not, would seem to smile the less
Ofall that flatterd, FOLLOWED sought and sued
This is to be alone; this, this is solitude!

For the Planter.
Mr.. EDITOR /:

In compliance with your request !;
trusting in your indulgence, and that of
your patrons, | send you for publication
the first article that ever prepared for
the press; on the fate of which may de-
pend very much, whether make further
effort as contributor to your valuable
and spirited paper. AT present it is my
intention to send you my thoughts, from
time to time, on subjects generally, espe-
cially those you have particularly pointed
out.
With regard to the subject on which |
shall dwell at this time, | address myself
to the readers of the Planter, for which l
write this communication in nearly the
language that Cicero puts into the mouth
of Anthony, who having been prevailed
on to talk of rhetoric against bis inclina-
ton :-'1IIear,n said he, shear one that is
going to instruct you in what he never
learned HIMSELF" The difference consists
only in this, Anthony's ignorance was
feigned, but mine, alas! is not.
The deplorable discordance in matters
of taste, both in this country and Europe,
and amongst those, too, who pretend to be
connoisseurs, has inspired me with the
most sovereign contempt for the generally
expressed opinions on this subject. "When
Doctors disagree who shall decide?" What
is admitted in England is denied in France /;
Germany approves what is condemned in
Prussia. This is particularly SO, in mat
tiers relating to the fine or liberal arts I;
and the Italians condemn them all. For
my part, think Irving's is as good de-
finition, and as much to tho point, as any
that has been given Of it, he says "tdste is
taste"
Having heard so much of painting, as a
branch of female education, became de-
sirous of obtaining knowledge of il, also
Of music succeeded in gaining know
ledge of the arrangement Of coiors, and
the effect produced by shade and light,
which for me has charms, SO has the ex-
hiIarating and soul stirring sounds Of mu-
sic, of which, too obtained some know
ledge. But to speak candidly, they can
not satisfy my ambition; a single page ell
egantly written pleases my taste more,
and in my opinion, is more admirable than
the finest picture. The variety OF the
well balanced sentence and finely turned
period, affords more pleasure than strings,
though touched BY d master hand j is

SONG FOR THE FOURTH OF JULY.
While music and mith and felicity gay,
Drive all cares from the breast on this festival
day,
By your leave and indulgence, kind friends I
will try
To give you ! song on the Fourth of July.
The birthday Of freedom 3 the theme Of my
song
The fatal dooms-day of oppression and wrong:
So proclaim from the earth, from the sea to the
sky,
The glorious epoch is the Fourth of July.
MAY tho lot Of each one be contentment and
wealth,
Prosperity, ease, long life, and good health,
And may no obtruding or sorrowful sigh
liver float ON the air Of the Fourth Of July.
sTere's success TO true lovers wherever they be,
day they square all objections and finally agree,
70 a union which death can alone nullify-
md that too before tho next Fourth OF July.
nd then, here's health to the memory Of
hose
no fell in combating our insolent foes;
ioir fame is immortal, it never can die
lille time shall bring round the great Fourth
Of July.

by the art Of writing that we are able,
most clearly and powerfully to display
those qualities that constitute the highest
PROJECTIONS of the human mind--ludg-
ment, imagination, taste, feeling, with all
that immense variety which is percepta-
bic by analysis in the immortal mind OF
man. BY this art writers can infuse their
whole soul into their fellow creatures;
transferring the feelings and emotions
that move their own breasts to those OF
their readers. A good writer can body
forth to the life, not only the abstract
ideas as they pass in the mind, giving
them life and locality; but pictures, def
nitely, all the variety Of their connection
and shades of Resemblance; thus, by put
ting right words in right places, forming
picture Of the thought, as they pass In
current, which, but for the art OF writing,
in all probability, would be gone-lost to
the individual and mankind forever. But
when committed to writing they are not
dead nor lost, but contain absolutely a pro-
geny of life in them; active as the immor-
tai mind that produced them. In this art
of arts-tcriting; letters are like unmlxed
paints; pords are analogous topalnts rea-
| dy for use; that, when put in right order,
arranged judiciously in sentences form
most beauteous picture Of the thought, ION
the canvas of the imagination: !" therefore,
writing can Justly be compared to paint
ing, showing many features prominently
and regularly; as we'll as the different de-
grees of prominence and regularity
Science, genius, Judgment, taste, &c must
constitute the painter: there ls as great
difference between good and bad writer
as there is between Raphael and a dau-
Der.
The electric effects produced in differ
ent countries, by writer's in every age, 10
we'll known, even to those Of limited read
ling, from the days of Herodotis and Ho-
mer, to those we live in. The master OF
this art can act, not only on millions OF
| bis species at the same time, but can ex-
tend that action to generations yet un-
born. Has the ingenuity of man dlscov-
cred OF invented aught like this? What
would be the state Of the arts ~ sciences
did not this art preserve them! Let e4-
perience tell. The author of our being
may have gifted some with faculties su-
perior to others; they may have stored
their minds may have examined the works
\ of nature and Of art, with a philoscphic
and discriminating attention. But is not
the greater port of all this lost to their fell
low creatures if they cannot write well!
The philosopher may pass for the fool i
he cannot write; not as every one writes,
but elegantly and excelleRtly-Rosseau
l is good example of this, who to the age
of thirty-eight, was little known, and only
as an eccentric fellow; but when he took
his pen he astonished and delighted all
Europe; then the richness Of his mind
was seen and felt.
Yours, &c. AYLON.

Messrs. ToTHILL g. HAIL:

Messrs. ToTHILL g. HAIL:
noticed in a late No. of the
Advocate, the able address Of Col. Hadley,
of Kinds, to his constituents, on request
ing him to resign. and am much pleased
at the views he takes in regard to Ma
tional Bank, g. the claims of Henry Clay,
The advantages of the Independent Trea-
sury he sets forth in colors bright as the
midday sun, and the detrimental ten
dency and influence Of National Bank to
southern interest and principles, fill the
mind of the real Southern with sensations
of horror and dismay. When he announ-,
ces to his constituents the astounding
truth, that. Gas certain as the shadow con.

of Internal Improvement by the General
Government, and all their measures based
upon the constructive powers of the gov
eminent, even the abolition of slavery it,

follow the election Of H. Clay and Ma
tional Bank" Yet we see that S., one of
the tutelar deities that presides over the
destinies Of the yclept AdDocate Of State
Rights, is endeavoring, by confused jar
gon of reason and sophistry, senseless as
the brain from which it eminated, to per-
suade the people that States Rights, H.
Clay and National Bank, are intimately
connected. He has not, however, yet
hoisted the Clay flag, by putting bis name
at the head Of his paper; but he has adj
mitted an article to be Published in the
Advocate, setting forth the claims Of IL.
Clay to Mississippi, thus conveying the
idea and tacitly implying that Henry the
LIST is the lawful and rightful heir to Mis-
sissippi :--moreove Iheard this champion
Of States Rights say, not month since,
that he preferred Clay to Van Buren,, and
wished to see him elected in his stead.

ARMSTRONG SPEAKING or RICHES SAYS:

Riches are oft by guilt and baseness earn'di
Or dealt by chance, to shield lucky knave,
Or throw cruel sunshine on a fool.
But for one end, enc much neglected use,
Arc riches worth your care, Qor natures wants
Are few, and without opulence supplied):
This i,oble end is, to produce the soul;
To show the virtues in the fairest light;
To make humanity the minister
of bounteous Providence: and teach the breast
That gcn'rous luxury the gods enjoy.

Time, relentless, stern and bold,
Needless of all things, new or old,
Remorseless in his wild car Ger,
Has brought us to another year.
Mans works have felt his scythe of fate,
All things have yielded to his hate;
All-but Egypfs pyramids,
(These, to fall, in vain Time bids.)
Which scorn the sand the simeon hurls,
That in dark threatning eddies curls
Which tower on high in sombre pride,
Which Times destructive tooth can bde,
AS long as Niles dark waters flow
To fartize the plains below.
All--but Lcarning's monuments
Sprung from Genius thought intense
These defy Times power to blight
Time only lends them mellowed light.
The minds of Genius, yet to light the oarth
And rouse their fellow mortal's souls to
thought,
Will own the dawning of their Genius birth,
To fire from Heaven that Prometheus bro't,
Withwhich lofty souls of Greece were franght.
Time, to destroy their labors, makes his aim,
To hide them in oblivion he has sought;
He only adds to Grcca's dcathlcss fame
TIo gilds with lovlior tints, her consec Grated
namc.
But Time turns up, i'll his ceaseless round,
Events that were hid in Fate profound.
What deeds has he done within the year,
Lhat must on History's page appear?
o, reader say has be brought to thee,
Sweet moments of Loves strange mystery,
All mingled in widest witchery?
Has he brought thee joy tongue scorns to
tell
That gladdens the heart with magic spell 7
Has he brought thee all that the Earth can
give?
Render thanks to the GIvER OF ALL, and
live.
