For the Piney Woods Planter
THE PINE WOODS.


| have long admired the romantic seen
merry of the Piney Woods. There is some
thing TO me peculiarly pleasing in its APP
pearance, even in winter; when the earth
is no longer covered with the carpet of
green, and the flowers which once deco
rated her surface, have vanished away
Yes, even here, in this dreary season, /
find much to admire, and much, | think,
that is worthy the contemplation Of intel
ligent beings. Much that should inspire
us with feelings of gratitude to the author
of our existence, much to inhance our en-
joyments, and improve our tastes for inno-
cent and rational pleasures.
How pleasing to behold forrest of gi.
gantic pines, standing in wild profusion,
over country of rugged hills, with now
and then a pearly stream. that glistens at
their base; to cast the eye along the dis
tant landscape, and reflect how many hap
Ply creatures within those romantic woods
are enjoying the blessings Of heaven, un.
molcsted by man. Such reflections are
calculated to soften the heart, to expand
the mind, and to raise the thoughts from
grovcliing subjects, to rest upon the gran
deur and magui6ccncc displayed in the
works of creation.

From the Boston Advocate we learn
that the Editor of the New Hampshire Re-
publican was assaulted By one Of Gov.
Eyerett's justices Of the peace, aided by
three other DULLES, at Northampton. The
editor and young friend, however, rolled
the blackguards into the gutter, and upon
thcir begging for mercy, let them go.
We have been assaulted by federal "bul
lies" and like the editor Of the Republi-
can, rolled them in the dust, if not in the
gutter. We know the course they viii
pursue If uncontrolled by fear, and they
have learned our course and know we can
not be bulied out Of it.

them is very pleasing. If not, why in the

DEFALcATIoNs.- the trick Of
kaares TO Notwithstanding the nuu-
merable instances of exposure, and the
many bushes brought to the checks of the
honest of their party, the federal wings
are, with view of depreciating the indie
pendent Treasury, publishing as facts, to
the world, the most unfounded falsehoods.
The object is to deceive the people into a
belief that the government is corrupt, and
that the Treasury plan, as recommended
by Van Buren,, is designed as means to
carry out the corrupt measures. 1t IS as
characteristic as true, that these federal
wings seem studiously to cast offall moral
restraint in their political contests, and
instead of reason, truth and justice, to re
sort to falsehood fraud and calumny.
Having frled to convince the freemcn
that the President is not their friend, and
the friend of tho country, and having obu-
sed, misrepresented and slanderod him
and the people tor their support ofhim and
his measures, the (cderalists have COM
menced a mos; reckless, unfounded and in
discriminate attack OH the government Of
fcers; and with an unblushing impudence
characteristic Of that party, call on the
people to believe it. But their poisoned
shafts fall harmlessly at the feet of theil
intended victims, or recoil with singing
reaction to their own corrupt hearts,
Their cry Of wolf no more alright; uccu
sations Of default against honorable men
can have no other effect than to brin
: shame on the accusers, at the same tim
!, rendering them undeserying of credcnc
: when they tell the truth.

low--with the intention OF finally ceding them 10

Of the vested rights of the old States, who claim
