The following poem is almost the last
written bv the poet Bayly. A friend Of
his saws: "When | am walking alone on
the beach, think ofpoor Bayly, and the
words he wrote with me on the sands at
BoulGgne:
"Writc on the sand when the tide is low,
Seek the spot when the waters flow;
Whisper name when the storm is hcrad,
Pause that echo may catch the word.
If what you wrote on the sand should last.
If echo is heard mid the tempest's bls
Then believe, and not till then,
There is truth in the vows Of men!
"Terow rose on the stream at morn
Watch at eve for the flowers return;
Drop on tho ocean golden grain,
Hope twill shine on the shsre again:
If the rose you ogain behold,
II YOU gaze on your grain Of gold
Then believe, and not till then,
There is truth in the vows Of men.

Which &de?--Notin politics, reader,
but the manner of riding on horseback
with the ladies. 1t is an easy matter
with general reading and good judg-
mcnt, to side with one political party
or the other, but it occasionally puz-
zles the most intelligent person to tell
the ''rght side Of the lady" ne would
attend. In a late discussion it was de-
cidcd the gentleman should take neither
the right or the left, but ride before,
with the lady on pillion behind, "her
arm clasping his waist for greater Sc
cnrity." This. FOR the time, appeared
satisfactory. But the subject is again
/ in agitation, to determine "what pres
sure is necessary to safety" We
shall withhold our opinion on that head
until We can have some practical illus
tration. Free Trader.

from their information he infers that

j that of last from 60 to 100000 bales.
The same pape, also says, that the
plantations on tie river are literally
crammcd with cotton waiting a cor

their engagements, we have a fair l,ros

II is not to be doubted that while
the traders Of Mobile have it in their
power 10 purchase produce in sound
currency, they will go ahead. Much
cotton will be carried thlthcr for mar
ket, that would be brought to this city
if our banks afforded the same adyan-
tagcs to producers and dealers. Who
will vol UNFAIRLY carry his goods to-
place where he can get nothing for
them but rags, when he can take them
a few leagues further and exchange
them for hard dollars -LouisiaaGa.
