Farewell TO scene of youth.

vERNAL SKETCHES By DELTA.
FAREWELL, venal landscape, whose valleys bright.
With the time .halOwed vision, Of vanished delight
Thy beauties more deeply are traced on my heart,
Since now comes the hour when from all depart
Farewell to thy meadows, farewell TO thy groves,
The seat Of my childhood the scene of my loves,
All! never again shall the future restore
The days that are past or the pleasures of yore!
Farewell to thy mulmuring waters that run,
Now shadowed by woodlands now bright in the sun,
Where the trout and lne minnow, the warm summer
long,
Seem to listen when gliding the linneIs blithe song
Farewell to the ruins of castle and keep, ...
That telling Of past days. yet own from the steep,
In solemn memento-that all we survey,
Like dew from the morning grass passeth awayl
Farewell, ye green chesnut trees under whose shade,
In the gloom OF the tempest so Oft have strayed,
So Oft have fingered in solitude blest,
When the blackbrd sings hymns to the sun in the
West
Farewell We fair mountains that hem in the scene,
With your SUBMITS of azure and pale sides of green
How oil, in my wand'rings, with soul as on fire
Have watched Ger your submits the daylight expire!
Farewell, but bright pictured dream is the past,
And the present shall be but the future at last
Hopes are thoughts-and like dreams Of the morning
decay
Friends are hings-but as years circle on where are
tbeyf
FAREWELL meath the morning beams cloudess and
bright
Farewell! meath the star-spangleo darkness OF night
Though the bushes and brakes OF thy glens have
strayed .....-.
And all natures aspects with rapture surveyed!
Farewell scenes of beauty brighter may show,
Blu, none for my soul ere shall equal the glow
Which youth love, and friendship, Ger mountain and
dell ..... ....s, ..
OF thine have outspread their enchan'ment-

A SONG TO THE DEMOCRACY. .
BY CHARLES o. WATERS, NJ. D.

BY CHARLES o. WATERS, NJ. D.
We conie-but not with revel shout
No madd'ning Bacchal song--
No wild and frenzied cry rings out
Our serried ranks along.
But heart with heart and hand with hand
We onward press--we count the fight
A bold-a true-a faithful band;
In freedoms name in Freedoms right.
We come--the weapons OF the free
Are in each hard AND brawny hand,
And falling sure and silently
They sweep corruption from the land.
Our leader we of yore have found
First in the fight and faithful ever;
With heart and hand we rally round
One who can prove recreant never:
We come--and Ger us proudly waves
The banner that our fathers bore
To conquest or to patriot graves
When British minions thronged our shore.
Yes-faithful hearts now thronged thee round,
Thou banner of the brave and freei
With high resolve each heart is bound
To conquer-or to fall with thee.
We come-we come---a mighty throng
Full pledged to freedoms sacred cause,
Our hearts are true-our hands are strong;
We fight for equal rights and laws.
The heritage our fathers gave.
The holy prize for which they bled,
Their sons shall guard----or CORY grave '~'-
Shall close above each freemen's head.
Then proudly raise our standard high,
And ev'ry mountain-evry CLAN
Shall echo back our rallying cry.
And Triumph crown our Cause again.
Yes-boldy be cur banner flung,
And firm let ev'ry freeman be,
Soon-soou shall leap from evry tongue
The thrilling shout Of Victory.

THE INVALID HUSBAND AND FAITHFUL
WiEE

WIFE.
Shortly after her marriage and in consequence Of
cold, her husband became a sad invalid. For thirty
years she lived separated from the world faithful and
lonely attendant OF the sick man. and what she bore and
what she endured the world knew not for she endured
all in silence For several years her husband could
bear the light she learned therefore, to knit in darkness
and thus made large knitted carpet "Ino this carpet
said she as she spoke accidentally of herself II
have knit many tears!''
One of the many hypochondiacal fancies other hus-
band was that he was about TO fall into a.yawning a.
byss and only could believe himself safe long he
held the hand of his wife. Thus for one month after
mother she sat by his couch.
AT length the grave opened for him. and thanking his
wife for the happiness he had enjoyed in The house OF
sickness on earth he sank to rest in the full belief Of
tlessedness beyond. When he was gone, it seemed to
her as ifshe were ofno more than an old almanacki
hut here also again her soul raised itself under its bur
aen and she regulated her lie with peace and decision
in course ot years she grew more cheerful and the !
cnaly of her talents and disposition which nature had
aven 10 her, and which in her solitude had undisturb
edly followed their own bent brought freshness with
,heIro social life into which she entered at first rath
er from resolution than IRON feeling aease ther com
pany.

THE SHERIFF AND THE WIDOW.
The Port Gibson Herald says:-We have just heard
a good story, of which an Alabama Sheriff is hero.
Court was in session and amdthe multiplicity OF busi-
ness which crowded upon him al term time, he stopped
at the door of beautiful widow on the sunny side OF
80 who, by the way had often bestowed melting CLAN
ces on the Sheriff aforesaid He was admitted and soon
the widow appeared; the confusion and delight which
the arrival OF her viser had occasoned; set on to
greater advantagethan usual the captivating charms OF
the widow NJ Her cheeks bore the beautiful tints OF
the apple blossom-her lips resembed rosebuds upon
which the morning dew yet fingered, and her eyes were
like the ouvers Of Cupid the glances of love and ten
derness with which they were filled, resembling arrows
that only awaited view beau, (pardon pun) to do
| full execution After few common place she re-
marks
MADAM said the matter-offact Sheriff, Il have an
| attachment for you. . ... .....- ,,...
deeper blush than usual mantled the cheeks Of the
fair widow--with downcas eyes, whose gances were
centured upon her beautiful foot which, halt concealed
by her flowing drapery gently pated the door she, with
equal candor, replied
'Sr, the attachment is reciprocal
For some time the Sheriff maintained an astonshet
silence, at last he said
Madam, will you proceed to CourtP
Proceed to Court replied the lady with a merry
laugh then shaking her beautiful head she aeded, M
sir though this is leap year. win not take advantage
of the license therein granted to my sex, and therefore
greatly prefer that you should proceed 10 C0@Ttv
But, Madam, Justice is waiting
Let him watt am not disposed 10 hurry matters II
such an unbecoming manner and besides, sir when tn
ceremony is performed, wish you to understand 'hat

Madam said he, rising from his chair with soem
i dignity.-qhereisa is great mistake here my languae
has been misunderstood the attachment OF which

and commands me to bring you instantly before him,
answer contempt of Cour, in disobeying a subpnn

!, We have received returns for Governor
from twenty three Ofthe seventy counties
in the State. which we give below. The
democraiic voIe will probably exceed by
several lhOusand any democratic vote ev
er given ia the State before; but in our
opinion, II will not be large enough to
overcome the whig vO,n. The whig

5O4. We think il will now be between
1900 and 5000 showing a Whig'loss Of
about 10000 A. the Same rate there
would be a whig loss Of 3l2 2,222 in the

in The western part Of this (Guernseyl

we're preferred against Henry Clay by
persons whose names we omit al present
ON account Of their official connection
with n bi glly rcspectable branch Of the
christian church. The lollowing,wO have
, understood, was the charge, viz .-''FhaI
Henry Clay, while on board steamboat
Un the Ohio River, was present in the
cabin Of the boat, on The Sabbath day
? overlooking his son who was gambling,
and tia, he (Mr. Clay,) in conversation
with lady and sOms gentlemen at the
same time, swOre most prOfanely, and
ttsed indecent and vulgar language -
Such we have understood TO be the charge
made against the idol Of COonery, and that
too, not made by a political partison, en-
gagged in q heated political discussion or
Infiammsrory appeal, but made by a mn
lister Of the Gospel acting under the sol"
emnities and responsibilities Of his sIa-
,iion. am ,nrg
IN, "Mr. Crooks, the Whig elec'or for this
District, We understand, was present at
the time the charge was made and being
q member of the same church with the
minister referred TO, and considering the
charge was made by those in high places,
concluded to wrle to Mr. Clay, for infor
nation. He accordingly did SO, and has
recsiYed an answer. Mr.. Clay, in biz
answer. either admits or attempts 10 PAL
