Eme DeCiuEHGAOMe
The lady sat within her bower,
Where trellised vines hung DER her,
With flashing eye and burning cheek ...
Down knelt her fond odorer;
He took her soft white hand, and in
Her bright eye fOndly gazing,
Sought for a look, to show that he
An equal fame was raising;
Yet sull her eyes were turned away,
And as his heart waxed holder,
And he devoured her lily hand,
The lady's look grew colder.
Aud then he Swore by all the stars
That in the sky we're shining
BY ell the Verdant vines that DER
Her gentle bower were twining-
By mountains, valleys, seas and streams,
And the bright moon above her,
And every thing therein that e'CT
Sophi OF saints discover
-, He never could know peace again
!, On earth, till be bad won her;
let still she answered not the look
OF love he cast upon her.
iiINA Al then he swore, at her command,
Jlor-fO show his love, he would do
What never mOrtals did before,
And none but lovers could do;
That he would climb up TO the moon,
Or swim the ocean over
Would dine ole day at Sandy Hook,
And sup next night at Dover;
Then Jump from thence to London, and
Alight on St. Paul's steeple-
Then pull the premier's nose, and make
O'COnnell damn the people.
Or that he would put armor on,
And, like a Anight Of yore, he
Would tight with giants, castles scale,
And gain immortal glory,
Then 90 and build a kindOm up,
And be a mighty winner;
BowstrinQ the Sultan MahmOud-and
His Turkey eat for dinner
Then follow Lander's dismal track,
And on the Myers banks
An empire Of the daTkies find,
And merit TapPan'S thanks!
If harder tasks she did demand,
He.wOuld reform the nation,
Make talent, honesty and worth,
Essentials to high station
Make politicians tell the truth,
Give conScicnces 70 brokers,
And put upon the temperance list
An army Of old soakers-
Make lawyers keep thu. peoples peace"
Physicians kill them cheaper
A cloud was on the lady's brow,
Which, as he spoke, grew deeper.
He swore she had the brightest eyes
That ever LOOKED on mortal;
And that their light was like the rays
That stream. from heavens own portal
That by her cheek, the opening rose
Would look but dim and faded;
And darker than the ravens wing,
The hair her fair brow shaded;
That Venus by her side would look
common country dOwdyi
She blushed and smiled, and then
Her brow again grew cloudy.
Up sprung the lover then, and said,
t'Will you be Mrs. PoPkins-

He is a man apparently thirty years old, FIVE

bought bottle of blue ink, similar to that used
by the bank Ofthe personal of this swindIer the
Spectator says:
He is about 35 years of age. rather below the
ordinary height, say about five feet six inches,
rather thick set, and says he weighs 14O lbs
this we should Judge to be about his weight He
had while here large pair of whisiers, approach
ing to sandy color: his dress was genteel and
he appeared to be man ofnasv address and bland,
conciliatory manners, we'll calculated to impress
favorably stranger. He had fullhead of long,
bushy hair, remarkably short neck, with fine
white set of teeth which he frequently displayed

In seriousness, ask if is not little suspicious TO

DREADFUL TORNADO.

! On Friday morning last, about half past 81!
o'clock, our city and vicinity was visited by mos
terrific tornado, which destroyed almost every
thing within its range,-Houses, stables, fences
trees, &c, were prostrated to the ground 1t il
supposed that Is or 20 houses, besides number
of stables and out-houses, were either utterly
thrown down and destroyed, or so much injured
as to be untenable. Our sister Corporation, New
Town, suffered most; the tornado raging there
with its utmost fury In that town the two story
brick Tavern, formerly occupied by Charles Lew
en-, deceased (and at the time of the Storm by his
surviving farniy) together with all the outhouses
and buildings now presents nothing but mass o.
ruins-the houses of Capts Cummings and Kid
der, (both two story brick,) were also almost en-
ings were destroyed-the warehouse at our wharf
sustained great injury, and the bridge which cross
es the Warrior, was considerably damaged
We have no means of ascertaining the amount
of the pecunary loss which our citizens have sus-
tained; but we know that it is great, and much oi
has fallen those least able to bear it-several
families, we understand, being without homes and
destitute of the necessaries of life. The daughter
of Capt Thomas Cummings, an amiable, intelli-
gent and interesting young lady was almost in
stantly killed by the falling in of the upper story
of the house. Mr. G. has sustained a severe and
irreparable loss, and we sincerely sympathize
with him in his misfortunes Mrs Lewen, and
several others were severely hurt, but we believe
none dangerously.
No one, we think can form an adequate concer-
ton of the ravages and devastation committed by
the storm, without Witnessing its effects The
ground in every direction was strewed with trees
furniture and the fragments of the demolished
houses, What was formerly, a neat and pleasant
village, is now but heap of unsightly ruins
The damage in our own corporation is compara-
lively small, though several families were unhous-
ed, and compelled to bear the pitiless pelting of
the storm.
We have heard several different opinions as to
the exact direction and extent of the tornado, or
hurricane. We cannot say with certainty, but
think it proceeded in kind of zigzag direction
from the Southwest to the Northeast, and proba-
bly,, did not exceed quarter of a mile in width
On Saturday last meeting of the citizens was
held at the Methodist Church, and a committee
appointed to procure contributions for the relief of
he unfortunate sufferers. We sincerely hope
hat the committee may be successful in their char
table efforts, and that those of our citizens, who
scaped the dreadful danger, and who are able to
10 so, will show their gratitude of Divine Provi-
ence by extending liberal assistance to their un-
ortunate fellow-citizens, many of whom are in
tate of actual want
