FAREWELL TO TIE WEST.
! T.. q. DELMoS.

III d. w. UILMpNs
Farewell 10 the land of my boyhood and glcc,
Thcic tics ofpurc friendship and kindred more dear
Bind my heart, though an exile forever to thee
All! home Of my childhood, leave with tear !;
Yet, vet the bright West will still hold the place
Which infincy's home ever keeps in the SOUL
And never nor never. can absence cilacc
The land OF my boyhood--my trcasurc--my goal
'Mong strangers I'll roam, and mid strangers III
dwell,
nd scenes of more splcndor seem fair TO the eye,
III gaze on It's tricbut the heart must still swell,
1'b- car native land, of wildwood and fountain,
y" s&atcrs which dance to the cataracts roar
sOfi;kes which but mirror the cedar clad mountain,
And kiss the bright pebbles which gem the sweet
shore.
Farewell to the land where the red man roams free;
Where the deer, and the elk and the buffalo bound,
covered tree,
In natures true mantle alone can be found =
Where Libery's banner bird clcavcs the thin air,
Asscrcaming she wheels from the prcciplcc grey;
Where the howl Of the panther is heard from his
lair,
As swiftly he sczcs and rends his poor prey.
Farewell dearest West, thou land of my birth,
Thou nurse of my youthful sports-glad, wild land
free!
To me thou'lt be ever the Eden of carth
And mem'ry's true needle, will ecr point to thee
a mother found thee. thou dark western wild.
Parental and fond in thy nourishing care,
Aud ever, and aye, shall thy forest reared child,
Prove true to the br,hrght of which he is heir.

The near Secretary of The naUy.--A cores
pondent of the National Intelligencer says:
Mr.. Badger is justly regarded as one OF the
very ablest lawyers in the United States. He
rarely ever speaks longer than one hour on
any subject, and in that space of time he will
do ample justice to his client, and often de-
molish a three days speech, of his adversary.
When that accomplished scholar and profound
iurist, VIM. CASTOR was at the bar, Mr.. Bag
ger, though much younger man, was his
formidable rival If had cause in any
court in the United States, would as soon
employ George E. Badger as any lawyer in
America. During the last war, when the Brit
ish invader the eastern shores of North Carroll
ma, Gov. Hawkins, with large number of vol
unteer militia, marched quickly to the defence
of the seaboard. In that expedition, George
E. Badger, then about l9 years old, volunteer
ed, was appointed by Major General Jones
one of his aids. and remained in the public SER
vice until the enemy retreated took water and
sailed from North Carolina.

A MorHER's TEARs.-There is sweetness
in mothers tears when they fall on the face
Of a diving babe, which no eye can behold with
heart untouched. 1t is holy ground upon which
the unhallowed foot of profanity dares not en-
croach Infdelity itself is silent and torbears
her knocking; and here woman shows not her
weakness, but her strength-it is strength OF
attachment, which man never can feel. IL IS
perennial, dependent on no climate no cnanSe
nor soil, but alike in storms as IN sunshIne' II
knows no shadow of turning. "A iathGl VIZ VIZ

Preside, the sportve laugh comes up to his re-
membrance, the succeeding day blunts the
noiaaancy of his grief, and it finds no perma.
nent seat. Not so with her who has borne and
nursed the tender blossom. 1t lives in the
heart where it was first entwined in the dreary
hours of night. She sees its playful mirth, or
hears its plaintive cries; she "seeks in the
morning." and she goes to the grave to weep
there. It's little toys are carefully laid aside
as mementoes to keep continually alive that
thrilling anguish which the dying struggle and
sad look produced and though grief, like a
canker worm, may be gnawing at her vitals,
yet she finds luxury in her tears, and sweet
ness in her sorrow, which none but mother
ever tasted.

YANKEE GIRLs-I love to meet a Yankee
girl, let il be where it will, more especially
when west of the Hudson. for then her pure
simplicity of word and action contrasts SO
amiably with the constrained manner of too
many among US, whose heads and hearts have
been spoiled by an artificial state of society.
She generally speaks what she thinks, nor is
fearful of thinking independently either; her
actions, though free, never go beyond the
strctest rule of propriety; and the most fasti-
dious, who may at first imagine her imprudent,
soon become assured that she is less erratic in
thought than the mincing prude, who chdes
her niece of fifteen for smiling with uncon-
strained open-heartedness in the face of her
cousin who has just returned from abroad
feel as if l had just emerged from the con-
fined air of city into pure breezy atmoS-
phere, whenever find myself in the society
Of genuine Yankee girl, who has moved in
good society and possesses a cultivated mind.
The most excellent traits which have OBJ
served in the Yankee girl are her evenness
Of disposition and her fine flow of spirits
You always find her the same, see her where
you will or when you will; and you are never
at q loss to understand her, for she has none
Of the low tricks which have become too fash
Onable among too many young ladies, who
are constantly in their social intercourse with
our sex, engaged in fighting under false colors,
until we are obliged to.turn about and IN mere
self protection, become as great hypocrtes as
themselves.-Pkh Paper.

DIFFICULTIES WITH ENGLAND.-Affairs with
England assume rather serious aspect. The
people of Cleveland have held a meeting on
the subject, and hold very strong language.
Among other resolutions are the following:
Resolved, That the doctrines of Mr.. Fox,
that the orders of government should excuse
a subject in the commission Of a fragrant crime
pie and disregard for human liberty, when
American freemen cannot but repudiiate with
scorn and contempt, however high the source
from whence they emanate.
ResOlved, That the determination OF our
sister state of New York to try, and if con-
victed, to execute Mcleod, is one which the
safety of the whole frontier demands, and
which will receive if necessary the energies
of the Union to maintain.

A Good Story.--The ''Spy in Washington
who is always cracking excellent Jokes, tells
the following good'un in one of his late let
ters:
Mr., Representative from Virginia,
was taken ill. His physicians after few days
attendance, expressed apprehensions that he
would not recover. Mr.-continuing to
grow worse, sent for a friend, to whom he COM
municated the apprehensons of his physician,
and then said in a solemn manner: "NOoo my
friend, Ihave a .faUor to ask; if | should die,
do not let me be buried at the expense of Con-
gresS, for by G., ii is unconstitutional

The editor OF the Chicago Democrat having
been made a Colonel, delivers an inaugural
speech, of which the following is the conclu-
sion: II
"For the present, fellow citizens one and all,
rest secured in your property, your homes and
YOUR families For | have unsheathed my
sword, and it never will be sheathed again un-
til YOUR last enemy shall be trampled under
my feet. But may die with it in my hands;
if so, shall die as proudly and as bravely as
Crockett. And in that event, pray you
take good care of my horse, and don't let Capt
Hunter steal my pistols"
