COMMUNICATED.
Dear Stevens: A few evenings since, while one
OF our fine steamers was about leaving port,
CHANGED to be standing on the lsvee-and near me
was a solitary individual, whom / could occasion
ally hear talking to himself.-On drawing nearer,
discovered him to be young gentleman belong
ing 10 our town, who appeared TO be somewhat
affected with the mania that has been raging in
this vicinity for some time past The following
10 the substance Of his meditatiOns, which came
forth uncOnSeiously in the shape Of PraZeI:
Silent and sad be the flow Of thy waters
Yazoo! while DER thee the gay steamer glides-
Beauty commits thee her lOveest Of daughters,
Then hushsd be- thy currents, unTufhed thy tides
GGles that in India mid spices are sleeping,
Faint with perfume, here your burden repOse-
Breathe IN your odOB DER the dark waters sweep
ing,
Whisper soft tales Of the chimes whence ye rose |!
Tell herthe last signal from the steamer is peang,
And the sound dies in the breeze and echoes afaT-
Tell her whose parting glance sweetly is beamiHg,
Soft thro' his tears like the pale evening star;
Tell her you've wandered thro' cimeS where the
flowers
Yield up their hues to the maIdens who twine-
Tell her your light wings have famed the gay
bowers
That beauty had hallOwed with Odor divine.
But that the land Of the loves and the roses,
Lovers and Hebes, the gallant and brave,
Boasts not a lOvelieT form than TepOses,
YazOO, entrusted to thy tickle wHv
