who never expresses a reflection drawn from ma

her stores Of beauty from its repachy No chance

GUARDIAN ANGELS.

No inward pang, no yearning love,
Is los, to human hearts,
No anguish that the spirit feels,
When brigh,.wiuged hope departs
Though in the mysteries Of life,
Discordent powers prevail
That life itself be WEAKNESS,
And sympathy may fail
Ye, all becomes discipline,
To luie US 10 the sky,
And angels bear the good j, brings
With fostering care on high;
Though others, weary of the watch,
May sink 10 toil.spcnt sleep,
And we are lelt IN solitude
And agony to weep
Yef they, with ministering zeal,
The cup Of healing bring,
And bear our love and gratitude
Away on heaven-ward wing;
And thus the inner life is wrought,
The blending earth and heaven,
The love more earnest in its glow,
When much has been forgiven.

THE SINKING FUND-~THEL LAW
DETECTED BY THE OFFICERS
OF THE PLANTERS BANK AT
NATCHEZ-W WILL THE PEOPLE
SUBMIT!
The Auditor of Public Accounts, and the
Commissioner of the Sinking Fund (GenI
YoUNe,) returned to the Capitol last evening
from Natchez, whittier the commissioner mad
repaired to take into possession the assets OF
the Sinking Fund held by the Planters BANK:
Col. MATTHEWS. the Auditor. is. &c oDiactoone
of the trustees ofthe fund, and stood reaoy 10
deliver the assets to the officer OF the govern
menl duly appointed under an act OF the Leg"
islature at this g. ssiVn. He was overruea by
the trustees on the part of the Bank, Messrs'
Vaudeville and Walwosth;and so the commls-
sooner returned without accomplishing the OBJ
iect of his MISS ion. Thus, the laws OF the
land are set at defiance by the President and
Cashier of a swindling corporation. In the
open blaze oil day, robbery andsmalfeasance IN
Office stalk abroad. This fund was set apart
to pay the bonds; the right of the State to con-
troll il, was never before Questioned, The
Bankers of Natchez have assumed fearful
responsibility. From the known energy OF
Governor Brown, they. may expect the en-
iorcement of the law, which, in case OF retu-
sal to surrender the assets, awards them
berth in the penitentiary for period not less
than five years.
