Though the soft eye beauty glow radiuntly gleam
ing,
Intense in its darkness or brilliantly blue;
And passion entwirc all the light Of its dreaming,
From checks of the velicst rose tinted hue,
We know not how soon all its light may depart-
How deeply hath anguish o'crshadowcd each heart
Though undmm'd seem the brightness
OF the young spirits lightness
The soul may stepped in the. dcatE-chilling dew.
And though sweet be the breathngs of mnstrcpS re-
vealings,
And soft as the zephyr that fingers the last,
Round the blush Of the rosebud all spelbound its
feelings,
With the perfume each leaaet shook out as it
passed;
The spirit that wakes from each high gifted string
All the light of those spheres that mortalma fling
Though bright be its seemngs
May wear meath its geamngs,
The depths of its fountains all darkly o'ercast.

FROM ST. AUGUSTINE.

By the schrs. Empire, Capt. South
wick and Stephen g. Francis, Capt. Coke
ter, we received yesterday, the ST. Angus
tine News of the 2lst inst. from which pa
per we copy the following:
ST. AUGUSTINE, May 81.
We have the melancholy duty of again
chronicling the murder Of several of our
citizens, by the willy savage. A letter from
santafec, Mineral sprinss,) under date of
18th inst, states that on the day before The
Indians killed two men, named Van Lant,
within 6 miles ofthat place; and that on
that morning u5,h) they attacked the
house of Mr.. Moses Cason, within four
miles of Sanlafec, and killed his wife aud
one child. Mr.. G.. escaped with one child,
but was himself dangerously wounded. A
party of five persons Immediately y went
out for the purpose of burying the dead'
but they had moi proceeded over hall a
mile, when they were fired upon by about
twenty Indians, and one man (Mr. Osteen)
mortally wounded
Another letter, from Newnansville, writ
ten while the mail was being closed, states
thatihe house of Mr.. Ward, some s or 10
miles North Of that place, was attacked
by Indians in the Night. Result not
known.
Since the foregoing was in type, we learn
from gentleman just from Pilalka, that
the Indians, after their outrages in the vi.
cini,y Of fSantafee, wended their way South;
their trail was discovered about six miles
from Fort Wakahoota. Lieut.. Baker i'm
mediately proceeded tothe place, with six
amounted men, and while examining the
trail was surrounded and fired upon by
about 25 warriors. Two Of his men were
killed by the fire, and another unhorsed
who was instantly stabbed. Lieut.. b. am
the other three men made good their es
cane 10 the Fort All the dlsposabe force
of the 7lh Infantry, about 500 men, are il

From the Temperance Aarocate,

a nuisance, affecting generally the property
of the citizens of the State, and particularly tho
relations existing between master and slave. is
to be found in the horde of free negroes suffered
to remain within our limits. There are but few
of this class who regard the plainest rules of NOR
ality. Of idle habits, "loafers'' in feeling and
principle, many of them entice slaves to run )
away, sometimes harboring them, and OCCASION
ally they 60 so far as to provide free papers, and
otherwise cid them in escaping to non slate-
holding State.
In some sections of South. Carolina, planters
are annoyed by this population to an extent no
longer to be tolerated: indeed, as class, they
aptly illustrate the truth of an old and quaint
saying-that San idle mans brain is the DEVILS
work shop
The inquiry suggests itself, what is to be donet
However harsh it may be judged, would it not
be advisable, as matter Of policy and humanity,
to present them the alternative, either to leave
the State within limited time, or upon refusal,
to be sold as public property, and placed in ev-
| Whether there exists any legal authority for
their removal, is proposition deserving conside-
ration; though, if its affirmative be true then it
would certainly be an act of kindness, where
they had local partialities, and preferred it. to
allow them 10 become slaves anu remain, rather
than be driven to associate and amalgamate with
their kind and considerate friends of the North
The sort of freedom they now have can scarce
be said to exist in name-rore than enough
however, to suit their capacities. Take it from
them, such as it is, and the condition of all our
slaves is not only improved, but our property
would be rendered more secure; whilst, on the
contrary they would be more than compensated
in knowing and feeling that they were happier
and better contented in a state of slavery.
At time like the present, it becomes us to-
adopt such measures as common reason would
indicate proper to be pursued, in reference to-
our domestic institutions. It is hoped these
crude observations may have the effect of draw
ing public attention to subject deemedby many
slave holders, well worthy Legislative action.

ALAS. HOW SOON THE HEART FoRGETs.

ALAS! HOW SOON THE HEART FORGETs
Alas! how soon the heart forgcts
Its deepest, widest pain;
The tear an hour the cyclid wcts,
:. And all is Joy again:
Still rushes on the tide of men,
As though the past had never been.
A year. one year is scarcely gone,
Since yellow in the fall,
We heaped the frozen clay upon
The dearest Of us all;
And now, alas! as 'twcrc dream,
The memory Of that day doth seem.
She was our life but ycstcr morn,
And by her tombstone now'
We sing and plant the yellow corn'
And drive the furrowing plough,
As gay as if beneath that stone
Were sleeping one we'd never known.
