isiana--Col. Crocken--A night on the Platte
Supper and a duel-Hiring out to be shot, dc
The Lion of our mess, Leo, the Lion, was
a Missouri boy, high-spirted, generous-hearted
fellow. He was one of the best, if not actually
The best amateur sportsman among US. Indeed,
his only rival was the Prince and The Prince
was Louisiana boy, so that the contest between
them got to be set down in our journals under the
technical caption of Missouri vs. louisiana"
The fret bull killed by the Prince was set down
g Louisiana No. l." and the murders Of Leo were
made out in our chronicle under the caption Of
Mo. Lo." The great distinction in disposition
between the Prince and the Lion was, that the
former carried with him into the wilderness all
the gentilty and elegance Of department that had
been cultivated in high society at home, while
our Missouri boy INDUCED himself in the within
of being singular in an opposite manner, leaving
etiquette along with his kid gloves and high-
heeled boots at st. Louis, and affecting the rude
manner and ease of regular woodsman. Each
liked the other, and the Prince continued though
out the trip to be a constant guest at the mess Of
the Lion. ya4st sstt5 38 =
Our Colonel Crockett was genius Of quite
another cast again !, The inevitable feature that
made marked character Of him was mild and
winning facetic that never failed him, often
sparkling merrest when the gloom of an oppo-
site mood hung over US, which, he would thus
pierce and brighten again with cheerfulness.---
Crockett had been the pet of sumptuous home,
and was particularly fond Of personal comfort, so
that in our rough travel he met Of course with
perpetual annoyance, all Of which he encountered
however, with the same quiet and admirable hu-

"Why, for Heavens sake, shall we have no
supper? I" said Crockett, when he camped for the
first time on the Platte, after dark, and in soak

"Supper! there's not a stick of wood within

.MISCELLAN EOUS.

The following beautiful lines from the pen Of genius
and loneliness are worthy Of their glorious theme:
f5s From the Louisville Journal
sH HENRY CLAY 1al
The day was beautiful around our bark
In sparkling waves the flashing waters stirred,
When, on the deck, one form CHANGED to mark,
That made my quick heart futter like bird
turned away, igt
Yet, something whispered, ere his name heard
'Tis HENRY CLAY!
How like vision float before me now,
While Fancy stamps with seeming truth the whole
That stately form that pale, expansive brow,
Those lips where smiles in bright succession stole
. That eye Of blue, iaaAgg "a
From whose unshadowed dephs his very soul s
Seemed shining through!
Worshipping genius, had long desired g
To meet this modern Cicero; and, when
My chances sought the glimpse my heart required,
A more than mortal grandeur awed me then;
For, as he trod. 5s G}s-g3 ssa
Though but man among his fellow-men,
t GG N He looked a God.
Oh thou, by fears unmoved, by threats unbent ~
Amid the struggling tides that round thee roll
The meekly great--the purely eloquent
The bright one speeding onward to the goal
The frn--the true il .lsa
In whose all-glorious praise feel my soul
- m Exalted too 5 as@saa
Were some gifted spirit, whose bright lays
Glow with high thought and wild poetic fire,
Then would sing for thee song Of praise,
Such as thy loftier spirit should inspire
Gn But DER the strings
No poet bends; light hand sweeps the Tyre
A woman sings g 63N hssi8s
Yet may breathe thy name, and bid thee press
On mid the adverse waves that round thee beat;
Such barriers pave the way to sure scccess, sjt5
And firmness gathers strength from past defeat;
s s The torrents force, R
Though turned aside, still struggles on to meet
Its destined course. { es
Not for the narrow views of party band,
Not for their tickle praise, or loud applause, r
Dost thou stand forth the champion Of thy land,
The firm defender of her sacred laws,
M To light the fame d8 aiaH A
Of patriot zeal, to aid thy country's cause,
w Thine only aim.
And soon may our loved land, too long oppressed,
In beauty smile beneath thy mild command e
Thou 'rt throned already in each patriot breast,
And the high-hearted ones throughout the land
81, Impatient wait IN ID flQtf
To see thee take in thine uDerring hand M
sg @ The helm Of State.
oh HENRY CLAY the nations truest friend! 5 M
The lofty seat, for which thou st nobly striven,
Shall yet be thine; for, if the angels bend @
In answer sweet, to soft petitions given,
0s M The heartfelt prayer
That my full spirit now uplifts to heaven
Will place thee there v29st

Dr. SwAYNE--Dcar Sir:
nERMIT me to take the liberty Of writing to you
L at this time to express my appreciation, and to
recommend to the attention of heads of families and
others your invaluable medicne--the Compound
Syrup Of Irunus Vrginana, or Wild Cherry Bark.
In nv travels Of late, have seen, in great many
instances, the wonderful effects Of your medicine in
relieving children Of very obstinate complaints, such
as Coughing, Wheeling, Choking of rhegm, Asth-
matte attacks, Sc, sc. should not have written
this letter however at present, although have felt
it nv duty to add my testimony to Tor some time,
had Il not been for a late instance where the medi
cine above alluded to was instrumental in restoring
to perfect health an "only child,' whose case was
almost hopeless, in a family of my acquaintance. 81
thank Heaven" said the doatng mother, "my child
is saved from the Jaws Of DEATH" and now say and
believe that, beyond all doubt, DR. Swayne's Com
pound Syrup Of Wild Cherry. is the most valuable
medicine in this or any other country am certain
have witnessed more than one hundred cases where
It has been attended with complete success. am
using it myself in an obstinate attack of Bronchitis in
which it proved effcctua in an exceedingly short
time considering the severity Of the case. can re-
commend it in the fullest confidence of its superior
virtues; would advise that no family should be
without it, il is very pleasant and always beneficial
worth double, and often ten times its price. The
nublic are assured there is no quackery about it.
