This precious hoon--this lock Of hair
ouce clustered on forehead fair;
A. soll ~ down rs bite rs snaw
And cvcrhnng two jet DARK eyes.
Tast ghsicned with brilliant glow.
Like aaars that sparkle IN the skies
And we'll she knew tluse charms III share,
And thus she gave this loek OF hair
I,ut nov, ala, in Wonder grave,
Juss wl,crs the weeping willows vafe,
And bow, as IL fhey too would moan
The early loss Of one SO bright;
Who from this earth so soonwaf torn.
And now enfombcd ia drerry night
Alone and cold shc ,leepcih there
She who oncs were this luok Of hair.
I've wern this loek for man, yeafs,
And ha,cd il with affections tears
And though those wears have passed away,
With sorow dim'd--wlh misery iraughi
There's yer one thought that lends ray
And oh ~hate'er mny be m. lot.
Mid Epriunr, aud mid dark despair.
III ever pfize Iii. lock ofhpif
And stili BY nj. ht-anl aye by day,
Upon my breast this lock shall lay,
And whcreso'er chance TO roam,
This gilt shall never fail l'impau
Though fsr in lands, away from homie,
Swret comfort TO NV dropping heart
And oh Ill cherish still with carr
Thi, priceless gem, this leck Of liaiI
And cen ill life shall be ne moro
Until the sod shnl close me DER;
I'll neer forget the angelic girl,
WIN yow'd through life she d live for me-
Who clip'd tlli. rich, thi. heanioous curl,
Aud snii, shc gave her hr0u ns frte;
And bade. ~haic'er m, fortunes Ucfe,
I'D keep for her this lock Of hair

COLUMBIA, Dec, 10.
At one o'clock P. Nj. the Senate were
announced and entered The Hall Of the Re-
presentatives, and were accommodated by
the committee of arrangements Of the
House, ofwhich Col. M'Kelvy is chairman.
The extensive gallery was adorned with
The congree gated "beauty" of the town. and
otherwise filled with anxious and enquirins
spectators,
The President of the Senate was seated
on the right of the Speaker. Al twelve
minutes past one, The Governor. elect; ac-
companied by the late Lieut.. Governor, or
acting Governor flanagan, was conducted
by Col. M'Kelvy and The committees TO
The Speakers desk-t the House aud SEN
ate rising as he passed before them. His
Excellency then, handsomely forcibly, aud
elnqnently, delivered his inaugural. copy
Of which shall endeavor 10 procure for
you as early as practicable. The tone of
lhe address was such as became the occa-
sion, high, liberal in all its parts-6rm as
regards the future action of the state ir her
relations with the general government, and
courteous towards those who differed with
the state on her presidential question. Ii
will prove highly acceptable To the demo
cratic party, whose candidate Governor
Richardson emphalically was-and by
whom he will be warmly susained--and
in so duiug. they can i've no just offence
To any one who has the heart and devO-
ton of CaroInian. Upon The whole,
we have abundant reason 10 be satisfied
with our Democratic Governor. His
debut was at once dignifcd AMI striking
and could not bu, favorably impress the
numerous audience which attended The
Inaugural ceremony.
His Excellency closed by expressing
his readiness to equality under the Consii'
,ntion--lhe Speaker then administered the
oath of Office. The President and Senate
then retired to their chamber, followed by
the Speaker and Members Of the House
of RcpresenlaIves-Col. M'kelvy anu
Committees conducting his Excellency
| for the purpose Of receiving from the
, hands of the President Of the SenaIe his
commission-whicI being delivered, lie
! Senate and House repaired to The Porticr
of the State House, and the Sheriff of the

| proclaimed The election and qualification

The Northern Eastern Boundary.-The
St. John Courier states that The British
Commissioners appointed to run the boun-
dairy line between tho American posses.
sions of Great Britain and the United
States, have finish their labors for the pre-
sent season, having completed The survey
Of the due north line from the river ST.
John to the Beaver stream, on the Metis.
From thence the Commissioners proceed.
etl up tho ST. Lawrence TO River Guellc,
with the intention OF passing up that river
and examining the highlands at its sources.
They started The last week in October for
that purpose, bur heavy and continued
snow storms forced them 10 reIiuquish their
operations. From the river Guellc The
Commissioners proceeded to Quebec; from
thence, Lieut.. Broushton, Il. E., one of
the Commissioners, went to New York,
on his way TO England. Mr.. Feulhcrston.
haugh, the younger, remains at Quebec for
the present, making up the returns and
completing the plans.
Ii Appears from the Woodstock Times
that the American Commissioners have
also been active in prosecuting their re-
searches. They have explored nearly the
whole extern OF country between Wood
stock aud tho St. Lawrence. which is re
presented as most dcsolate and barren
region. Nothing buI bogs, lakes and marsh
es, with some broken and irregular ridges
ofhighnnds, covered with slunted growth
of moss clad trees, meet the eye after leav-
ing the ST. John some fifteen or twenty
miles. The parties that went up the Ken
nebrck and Penobscot, have likewise re-
ported. thus completing The whole Ameri-
can survey. with The exception of running
the Meridian by lunar observations. now
