THE POLAR STAR.
This star sinks below the horizon In certain lati
udes. ! watched II sink lower and lower every
ligh', I'LL al last IL disappeared.
A star has left the kindling sky
A lovely northern light
How many planets are on high,
But that has len the night
miss its bright familiar face,
II was friend to me,
Associate with my native place,
And those beyond the sea-
II rose upon our English sky,
Shone o'cr our English land
And brought back many loving eye,
And many gentle hand
II seemed to answer to my thought,
II called the, past to mind
And with Us welcome presence brought
All l had left behind
The voyage i lights no longer ends
Soon on foreign shore
How can but recall the friends
Who may see no morel
Fresh from the pain Z was to part
How could bear the paint
ACt oiouS the Outu III my neaII
That says we meet again.
Meet with deeper dearer love,
For absence shows the worth
OF all from which we then remove,
Friends, home, and native earth
Thou lovely polar star, mine eyes
Still turned the first on thee,
Till have felt a sad surprise
That none looked up with me.
But thou hast sunk below the wave
Thy radiant place unknown;
seem TO stand beside grave,
And stand by it alone.
Farewell l--ah, would TO me were given
A power upon thy light,
What words upon our English heaven
Thy loving rays should write!
Kind messages of love and hope
Upon thy rays should be;
Thy shining orbit would have scope
Scarcely enough for me.
Oh, fancy vain as it is fond,
And little needed too,
My friends | need not look beyond
My heart 10 look for you

YazoO valley.

There are some singular facts connected
With this tract Of country, not generally
Known. 1t contains no upland, nor accor-
ding TO proper agricultural meaning, table
land. The whole region Of country is fiat
and level. The surface not varying in height
more than 10 or Is feet; bounded on the
east by regular and distinct range thigh
lands. the commencement of { somewhat
broken country, (tbe same as the eastern
border Of the Mississippi bottom below the
mouth OF Yazoo,) and on the West by the
Mississippi bottom, from which it is divided
by no definite marks The timber gen.
orally is essentially different from any we
have ever seen upon alluVial land, and the
following we think are never found in that
kind of soil:-Sugar Tree, Dog Wood, Slip
perry Elm, Red Bud, Black Walnut, Wild
Cherry, White Hickory, and Sassafras, large
and plenty. All these together with i'm
mense quantities of the finest and largest
oak are found in county.

Fires in Natcbez.

Almost or quite every week the papers
from the beautiful but unfortunate city of
the bluffs bring us accounts of "more fires"
There is band Of incendiaries intent upon

may reasonably be looked for in neighboring
towns. They appear to be vigelent in Po-
lice watchfulness in Natchez, and we think
that tits the imperative self-preserying duty
Of every city town and village in this part Of
the county to LOOK OUT FOR INcENDIARY
ROBBERS.
