 Bedew thy grave ?-ah, never-never. The wintry winds may moan around Thy cold and silent narrow dwelling, But OCT thy damp sepuchral mound No loved ones voice of grief is swelling! Oh!

Yes thou art sleeping by the side Of strangers who have gone before thee, But still, death cannot long divide The tie that will again restore thee.

LANDING OF THE FLORIDA REGULARS.


 BY LIEUT.. G. W. EATEN, U. s. ARMY. Strike up the rattling drum!
 Shake out the guidon free Hunah! with succoring bands we come Across the bounding sea. We near the hostile shore,
 Flourish the bugle's blast; Our weary voyage at length is OCT, Hurrah! we land at last. Hurrah hufrah! hurrah!
 For wonder tented plain; In grasp of peace with hands of war, We greet our friends again. Stand comrades on your lives! Fill twice the wine cup round; Pledge once your homes and once your wlves, Then dash it to the ground. Perchance that cup may pass
 Some later hour again; And ye may drink-'cho fu that gtass- The memory of the slain." But rouse ye from your dream, hear the battle drum; And columns wheel and sabers gleanl. Huuah they come they come. Raise up the banner high
 As the Grecian held his targe, If die we must, like men we-die- Sound forward to the charge! March on with measur'd tread, 'Tis glory leads-and fame, Our hunter hands the tolls have spread. March on, we scent the game. Wait for the word-step light,
 Let not breath respire- Aim to the left-the right
 Aim to the centre-fre 2! Hurrah hurrah! hurrah!
 love the stormy din, As fierce and fast, like waves afar, The battle roareth in. The music of the strife
 The war bolt flashing by The forfeit death-the guerdon life Hurrah for victory!

 snsHE proprietor will make use of no Greek u or Latin words to express it's good quali- ties, rather preferring plain English; neither will he give it far brought name. The Stove derives its name especially from its particu- lar construction. Neither would the proprie- tor affix to this notice the certificates of oth- gers, though often advised thereto by those who have them in use, and have proved them. Rather would he invite all to call, previous to lpurchasing elsewhere, and see and know for Themselves, that this stove is to be preferred to any other now in use.

-..r-4P whrlwind encompassed me, and ! ssunk into tormenting fame.' With the fright I awOke.'
 There was silence for time, for ,he sis ters were struck with awe. They eons;8- cred the dream, the deep impression it had made. -' Anna,' said they, we can- not wish you to forget this dream, we surs- y believe 1t is from God. Your descrip- ton of the Holy City is much the same as we find in the Bible: the city hath no need of the sun, nor of the moon to tighten it, for the temple of God is there, and the Lamb is the light thereof;' all who enter there must put off their own garments, that is, their own righteousness, and must be clothed with linen clean and white, even in the righteousness of the saints, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.-- Those that walk in the heavenly temple, are those that have come out of trbulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb; wisdom waits daily on the steps to call the sons of men into that temple, and the people of God try to persuade their followers to tread in their steps. O, dear sister, you know something of the way; do harken to the faithful warning, join US, and walk iD the path that leads to heaven.' Anne's brow again darkencd, and she answered, l will do as please, do not intend you to preach to me- She continued in this melancholy state until the end of the week, and was found in her own room corpse no one knew the cause of her death < she died without disease, and without change.
 
 1Ne NeW YeGr.-The new year dawns with brighten prospects than that which is about to close. Through much tribolation. we have reached point whence, if we do not wholly and at once forget the!bitter les sons ofthe last year, we may take our de- parture with the certainty of a Successful issue to all moderate and reasonable under takings. The m0miG of becoming sudden- ly rich, is abated, if not cured; and with that corrupting and most contagious infirm- ity will disappear, i, is to be hoped, that strife of luxury, which undermines virtue even more than it does fortune. Return ing to the simplicity of other days, we shall enjoy more happiness, more tr0e respecta- blity in appearing really what we are, thap in striving afler appearances that cannot be maintained, or, ii maintained, confer nei- ther distinction nor contentment. M sl
 Labor is the law and condition of our ex- isience here below--and labor in this hap py land-we speak, of course, of labor of all sorts, of the mind as we'll as of the arm. ofthe scholars stady.t the merchants count ing house, the mechanic shop--of the far mer amid his fields, and the seaman on inc occan--labor. in this happy land, is sure of itC ' al atic exercise of honest industry and in,elIi- gent application in the discharge of our re- spective callings, for that competence whicl, all alike are seeking for; and turning not aside for ,le temptations of air- blown spec platons, let us enter upon the New Year with expectations moderated. hopes chas- tened, but confidence unabated.

 Norel Rat IrGp.-Some few days since, Q large rat was observed making a repast Oh some dead fish, which were lying on the beach at Falmouth, when it's tail was sudden ly taken into custody by an oyster, which held on so firmly, notwithstanding the furi- ous attack made upon it by the legitimate owner of the tail, that finding resistance use- less, the rat made off with all speed to neighboring hole pursued by whole host of persons who were attracted to the scene of action. The hole. however, being just large enough to admit his body and not the tail. which was still in the possession of the oys- ter, the rat was soon taken prisoner.
 Yankee Cock-T Trxe Game !-An anecdote was day or two since related to us by friend, which is worth the telling. He was on his way to Havana some months ago, and when off Florida. bald eagle, which, had been blown out to sea, alighted, exhausted, on one of the lower yards. He was brought down by our informant, and his wings were cropped, and himself was nursed into vigor again. Arrived at Havana, aScompanion one day suggested for frolic. to paint up the bald eagle, whose color was dark grey, SO as to make him resemble a cock as much as pos sible. and to take him to cock pit to try his mettle. Accordingly after he had been kept "A hours without food, our eagle was again trimmed and painted rooster like, and taken in bag, to the pit. At length the owner of cock which had beaten in twelve rounds dared contest with any one. Our friend stepped up to him. and told him that he hnd a Yankee cock ofthe native Green Mountain breed with him. if he would like a garne. Yes said the Spaniard, I don't care what kind of a cock it is-let him out.' The bet was S25, and the Yankee cock was let into the ring. The opposite rooster, flushed with his victories, crowed and spurred about, and planted his head for fight-when what does sir Yankee do but to plant one claw uncere- moniously uponhis back; and twist his neck with the other-and in a moment make . meal of him. The Spaniard swore like ono possessed. He paid his money, but he de- no1nced all Yankee cocks.

"The vanity of young men in loving fine
clothes and new fashions, and valuing them
selves by them, is ono of the most childish
pieces Of folly possible, and the occasion of
great profuseness and undoing of young
men, Avoid curiosity and too much ex-
pensiveness in your apparel; let your clo-
thing be comely, plain, decent, cleanly-
not curious and costly. It is sign of a
weak head-piece TO be sick for every new
fashion, or TO think himself the better
with it.
The greatest men are men Of simple
manners. Parade, ceremony, show and
profusion Of compliments, are the artifices
of little minds, made use Of to swell them
selves into an appearance of consequence,
which nature has denied.
Avoid ornamental chains, beads
&c. about the neck which give the appear
ance of the original inhabitants of our
country: also, avoid standing at your mir
ror so long on Sabbath morning as to de-
prive you Of the privilege of attending
church in the forenoon, and for other bad
results.

"BE SoMETHING-One principle Of the
Mussulman creed is, tina. every person
should have some trade. Thus should it
be, the world over. See that young man;
no matter what are his circumstances or
prospects, if he has no plan he will never
accomplish much. If he relies upon his
present possessions, or upon the anticipated
favors Of fortune, ten to one if his fine
hopes are not bighted, and he find too late.
that the only path to true greatness is by
application. The following maxim would
apply to persons of every condition in socie-
ty who are about entering upon the stage
of active life: Choose after mature delb-
Grafton and consultation with judicious
friends, that vocation which is most suita-
BILE for you. Be not diverted from your
purpose--let nothing prevent you from
qualifying yourself thoroughly for it; then
pursue it with unremtted diligence, and
you will honor yourself and be a blessing
to community.

Mr. GRAvEs.--It will be recollected, that
pending the consideration Of the motion to
rccommit the report of the duelling COM
mtee, which has been so long before the
House, MIR Graves, on the Both ult took
occasion to make some remarks on the
question under debate, and to express a.
willingness TO submi,to whatever fate might
be assigned him by public opinion, provided
he could be allowed fair hearing and the
constitutional right of being tried by his
peers. His speech has been published and
the following is the concluding portion
Of it.
l should do injustice to myself, were | to
conclude without saying that | was not
conscious, at the time that | had invaded
the privileges of this House. / thought
was especially carefully to preserve them. /
find, however, that being connected with
duel, either as principal or second, when
member is principal, technically involves
all alike in breach Of privilege. Sir
was involved in the commencement Of this
unfortunate affair innocently. l never
conceived it possible that such consequent
ces would have devoved on me, when
consented to become the bearer of that
ill-fated note, otherwise | should never
have taken on myself the task.
am not, and never have been, the ad-
vocate of the anti social and unchristian
practice of duelling. have never, up to
this day, fred a duelling pistol. Nor, until
the day when went to the field, never
took any weapon in my hand in view of a
duel. Public opinion is practically the
paramount law Of the land every other
law, both human and divine, ceases to be
observed; yea, withers and perishes in con-
tact with it. 1t was this paramount law
of this nation and of this House that
forced me, under the penalty of dishonor,
to subject myself to the code which i'm
PEELED me unwillingly into this tragical
affair. Upon the heads of this nation, and
at the doors ofthis House, resist the blood
with which my unfortunate hands have
been stained
