Our correspondent will please to accept
our thanks for the touching and beautiful dirge
on Oseola. The last of his race could not
have lamented him in strain Of deeper pa
thos, or truer sublimity.
FOR THE MADIsoNIAN,
DEATH OF OcEoLA-The Charleston Mercury Of
January 81, says
This famed Chief paid the debt of nature at
Sullivans Island on Tuesday night. He had been
sick for some me-when saw him at the Theatre
he looked sad and tired of the world. He was at
tackled with catarrhal fever; but whether he fell
victim the common of the disease or TO the
harassments of vexed and disappointed spirit is a
matter of doubt; probably combination Of the two.
He had the best medical attendance and we believe
was in nothing neglected but ii would not do--his
proud and unconquerable spirit refused be chained
to captive body. We shall not write his epitaph
or his funeral Grafton yet is there something in the
character of this man not unworthy of the respect OF
the world. From vagabond child, he became the
master spirit Of long and desperate war. He made
himself; no man owed less to accident. Bold and
decisive in aciion deadly but consistent in hatred
dark in revenge, COOL subtle, sagacious in council,
he established gradually and surely resisess as
tendency over his adaptive tribe, by the daring Of
his deeds the consistency of his hostility to the whites,
and the profound craft Of his policy. In council he
spoke little; he made the other chiefs his insru-
ments and what they delivered in public was the
secret suggestion OF the invisible master. Such was
Oceola who will be long remembered as the man
that, with the feeblest means produced the most
terrible effects

We thank our correspondent for his good
opinions. We shall endeavor to deserve
them. Denunciation may come thick and
fast--it has no terrors for us. We have but
one course to pursue. True Republcanism

the late October elections but since that period has
in name only existed, and not by any regular or
ganized stated meetings. There is, ! admit kind

half dozen politicians, who call themselves Demo
Gratis, whose ostensibc object is TO work themselves
into Office, andare always eady to do the bidding of
the Custom-house andPo Office. ofsuch characters
was the meeting composed, that declared the Madi-
sonian opposed to the Democratic party. From the
denunciatons of SO corrupt source you have moth
ing fear. All true Democrats here, are becoming
more and more disguised with the dictaoria course
of those pOlcalhacks and the time is fast approach
ing when the old Jeffersonian Democrats will stand
up in defence of the principles Of So and in opposi
tion TO all encToachments ofthe General Government

Wright, of New York, has but few advocates

THE HUNTER.

THE HUNTER.
Merrily winds The hunters horn,
And loud the ban Of dogs replying,
When before the shout Of the ffeet-loot morn,
The shadows Of night are A ing.
Sullen the boar in the deep green wood,
And Lroud the stag that roams the forest.
And noble the steed with his warlike blood,
That exuts when the toll is sorest
Fair is the land Of hill and Of plain,
And lonely dells in misty mountains
And the crags where eagles in tempest reign,
And glitteriDg lakes and fountains.
These are the Joys that hunters find,
Whateer the sky that's bending o er them,
When they leave their cares on their beds behind,
And earth is all fresh before them.
Day ever chases away the night,
And wind pursues the waves Of ocean,
And the stars are brother-like hunters bright,
And all is in ceaseless motion.
Life is chase, and so it's joy,
And hope foretells the hunters morrow
'1'is the skill Of man and the bliss of boy
To gallop away from sorrow
THE MARINERS.
Raise we The yard and ply the oar,
The breeze is calling us swift away;
The waters are breaking in foam on the shore
Our boat no more can stay, can stay.
When the blast flies fast in the clouds on high,
And pillows are roaring loud below,
The boatman's song, in the stormy sky,
Still dares the gale to blow, TO blow.
The timber that frames his faithful boat
Was danded in storms on the mountain peaks,
And in storms, with bounding keel, twill float,
And laugh when the sea-fend shrieks, and
shrieks.
And then in the calm and glstening nights,
We have tales OF onder, and Joy and fear,
And deeds Of the powerful ocean sprites,
With which our hearts we cheer, we cheer.
For often the dauntless mariner knows
That he must sink TO the land beneath,
Where the diamond on trees OF coral grows,
In the emerald halls Of Death, Of Death.
Onward we sweep through smooth and storm
We are voyagers all 10 shine or gloom;
And the dreamer who skulks by his chimney
warm,
Drifts in his sleep TO doom, 10 doom.

Dr. Franklin in his letter to Paine against
the publication Of his Age Of Reason, makes
use of the following remarks :-"if men are SO
wicked with religion, what would they DO
without it?" A good idea. and one which
carries more weight with it than one would
imagine at first sight. When we have bad
men who possess very little religion, the
cynic would fling the blame upon the "rellg-
ion" which he possesses-whereas 1t Is be-
cause he has no more religion that he is the
unworthy thing which we condemn.
