THE LOVERS .aDIEU,
NY Z, CLEMENT.

BY J. CLEMENT.
Then must leave, alas for ever,
My native land and childhood home;
Tire ties that long have bound me sever,
And far from her, the loved one roam.
Then charming vale where we have spoken
Our words Of love so pure and sweet.
Since now MY charm for me is broken,
hsil no more thy green retreat.
Farewell, ye fields. OF. robbed with flowers
or my Es,elc to deck the hair
And roses; cuIled from Flora's bowers.
TO grace a brow, thai ye, more fair.
And, farewell stream, whose limpid waters
Their rapid course suspended oft.
That she, the boast of Beauiy's daughters,
Might there behold her features soft.
Farewell, ye meadows, ever verdaut,
Where infancy its passions breathed;
And where in youth our love more fervent,
The howery garland mutual wreathed.
And ye, fair trees, where oft we wandered,
Our names TO trace, our vows TO tell,
And Ger the past with pleasure pondered,
To you Sigh sad farewell

LIFE'S PROGRESS.

How gaily 10 at Grst begun
Our life's uncertain race /!
WAilst yet that sprigh.iy morning sun,
With which we just set out 10 run,
Enlightsns " tho place.
How smiling the worlds prospec. lies,
How tempting TO 60 through!
Not Canaan 10 the prophets eyes,
From Pisgan, with sweet surprise,
Did more inviting show.
How sof, the 6rst ideas prove
When wander througb our minds
How full the joys, how free the love,
Which that early season move.
As fow'is the western winds!
Our sighs are then but vernal air,
But April drops our tears,
Which swiftly passing, all grows fair,
Whilst beauty compensates our care,
And youth each vapor clears.
Blu. oh! too soon, alas we climb,
Scarce feeling we ascend
The gently rising hill Of Time,
From whence with grief we see that prim,
And all its sweetness end.
The die now cast, our station known,
Fond expectation past;
The thorns which former days had sown,
To crops Of late repentance grown,
Through which we toll al last.
Whilst ev'ry cares driving harm,
That helps to bear US down;
Which faded smiles no more can charm,
Bus every tears a winter storm,
And ev'ry looks frown!

Nv life is like a shattered wreck
Cas-, by the waves upon the shere;
The broken mas,s, the rifted deck,
Tell Of the shipwreck that is Ger.
Yet from these relics Of the storm
The mariner his raft will form,
Again TO tempt the fai,hless sea:
While Hope rebuilds no bark for me.
NY life is like the blghted oak
That lifts its scar and wilhered form,
Scathed by the lightnlng's sudden stroke,
Sternly TO meet the coming storm:
Yet round that sapless trunk will twino
The curling tendril of the vine,
And life and freshness there impart-
Not to the passion blighted heart!
Ny life is like desert rock
In the mild ocean, lone and drear,
Worn by the wild waves ceaseless shock,
That round its base their surges rear.
Yet there the sea moss still will cling,
Some flower will find a cleft to spring
And breath cen there sweet Perfume
For me lifs's flower no moro will bloom

An important constitutional question is now be-.
fore the United States Supreme Court, which is
deeply interesting to this country. II arises in
case brought up from the District Of Illinois,
The facts presented 10 the Supreme Court, are
briefly these
Arthur Bronson, a citizen Of the State of New
York. filled his bill in the Circuit Court of the
District of Illinois, for the foreclosure of a mort.
gage executed by John II. Kinzie, citizen of the
State of Illinois. The mortgage is dated in 1898.
1t contained power to sell, in the usual form, the
surplus 10 be paid over to the mor,gagor:
On the l7th February, lS4l, the Legislature
of tho State of Illinois enacted a law forbidding
the sale of real estate, except under certain pre-.
scrlbed conditions; among others, was a restric-
ton on this power, to wit: that the property sold
should be first appraised, and the sale should not
take place unless it produced sum equal TO two
thirds Of such appraised. The lestion presentod
to he Court, We understand TO be, "phether or
not the act Of 1871, SO far 1t is sought 10 be ap-
piled TO hs mortgage Of 1888, is, or is rot, rspug.
Ham TO that prorisioa in the Constitution Of The
United States piich declares thcn no State shall
pass any la~s impairing the obligation of con.
racts?"
We have said that this question is one Of deep
in'oeS' " '''0 eoHti anu, We may uuu, 10 every
citizen, whether of the creditor or debtor class
for we are all creditors and all debtors. This
relation rs between the People of this country is
mutual and reciprocal.
1t isa question Of riidl interest, and as it may
be determined, will influence, for veal or woe
the moral character of our People, and the per-
petuity of our institutions.
We are rejoiced that the question has been
brought before the highest judicial tribunal THE
Court of the last resort--and we look with conf.
dence, but more with soicitude, to the decision OF
that ribunal.--Madis0aian

We learn from every part of State that the cottor
planters last year were successful beyond their mos

as the experiment has been made in this county, it ha,
proved alike successful Prices are exceedingly low it
is true but SO the price of almost every thing Which
the farmer has to purchas-bagging and rope opy

We are happy to learn that many of our facrs this
year intend growing cotton. We trust to see several
thousand bags shipped from Van Buren, next season.
GIN is being erected at this place, and one at Fort
smith We trust that every ENCOURAGEMENT will be
afforded by our merchants to the planters
We are also happy to earn that the returns of those
who have shipped tobacco are most encouraging. One
lot shipped from this place by John Austin, & Co., for
James Stevenson Esq, sold for five cents per pound
was pronounced by the Inspector be of that quail
" which always commands good price. Indeed we
are assured by the gentleman who sold it, that had it
been well assorted would have brought six cents Der
pound.
Those shipping tobacco will do well to bear in MIND
the necessity of keeping the green tobacco from that
which is well cured
