THE LAY OF THE vloLETs,
BY EDWARD J. PORTER.

BY EDWARD J. PORTER.
II is said that the Vioicts lose their scent in May
Where are the joyous zephyrs wngsl
They wave no longer here;
With US soft perfumes offerings
They once were wont to share;-
They sighed as lovers sigh around,
And left, our leaves uppn,
A wreath of kisses sweelly bound
Where, are the zcphyrs gomez
They loved us in Springs earlier hours,
They whispered round us then;
Though bloomel a thousand brighter flowers
In woodland glade, and glen;
But now the moon Of tto,aers is here*
Onr tr,lant loves are hown2
Oh do they still our soft spells wear?
Where are the zephyrs gone?
Our leaves have lost the glorious breaths
Tha, chained the zephyrs wings,
No longer do we weave such wreaths
As the perfume.sprit brings.
Why Iinger here, when Iife's bright chain
Hath lost the ray, that shown
Our perished sweets we mourn in vain,
With the zephrs' bright wings, gone
The Indian;namc of the month OF May.

was announced by Telegraph from New York
TO Philadelphia. and that the leading item OF
news b y her was the death of Louis Philippe.
!, The Baltimore Clipper also contains the
above repor,.iand adds the ''sad event was i'm
medalely followed.by revolution"
1t has been spread through The District
whether designedly or not, we cannot tell,
that our meeting here on Saturday last. to raise
Volunteers, was very near failure. Now
we take this occasion to say, that such ru-
NOR is totally unfonnded. Wehad a mostad-
mirabIe meeting; and instead of its hasing been
broken ND in roo as it has been asserted,
every thing was carried on in the best spirit
imaginable. To be sure. towards the concl'-
sion of,he proceedings, there was an animated
little discussion, but if there was anything like
an ilI.natnrcd controversy, we confess that we
were wholly ignorant Of the fact, although we
were present There isa verywide difference
between speaking warmly, and speaking in
anger.
The meeting from the first, was not intended
TO be large one, nor to be meeting OF all tlie
citizens of Edgefeld. The call which was
made through the papers, was addressed par
,icularly, and in so many words. to the young
men of the district, in order 10 give Them all
opportunity of volunteering for the Mexican
war, and OF ofconsultng on the preparatory steps
i. " 4 Il
~ be taken, to Obtain their reception by the
President OF the United States; and we here
take the liberty to say, and we are proud To De
able to do so, that several young men OF our ac-
oua;ntauce who would do honor TO any secuon
of the country, most nobly responded to the
call made mon their patriotism and them vaior.
The fac, is, we were enabled, almost entirely
to complete that day, one of the best volun-
1eer companies tllathas ever been raised III 'his
part of the State. There were no signatures
obtained in public, nor was there call mace
for them in public, but there was handsome
number of as handsome and gallant gentlemen
rs there are in the State. who enrolled then
oomes az volunteers for the war. both III lile
morning and in the evening of Saturday last
Tie meeting was entirely military in It's
character, and it was 90, up solely f"l the put
nose we have mentioned, and it snbserred that
purnose as well as any meeting could have
done under the circumstances.
We will state iu conclusion. that from the
spirit and enthusiasm manifested in all parts "i
our District we are morally certain. that when
arequisiiiion i, made upon South Carolina
for troops. our Old Edgeie!d viii no, only be
equal 10 her duty, but she will send forth al
most any number Of her sons that may be cal
led for.

A GREAT DISASTER, AND YET
A MIRACLE

One Of the most terrible disasters that
has ever been occasioned by the winds or
storms, in This part OF Ihe country. occur
red on Thursday. May Ia, abouts O'Clock,
P NJ. on the plantation of Mr., James
Perry, near Perry's Cross Roads, Saluda.
The course of the wind. was about due
North, and ranging in width, from fifty 10
one hundred yprds.
The following are, as near as can be
gathered, The particulars of he desolation
il spread on the premises Of Mr.. Perry.
His dwelling house was thrown down,
and even he sills were naoved. The roofs,
and few top logs were taken from the
meat house and from rhe burn. The fenc
ing, in some places, was swept even TO the
bottom rail. Some very large trees were
blown down; two, in particular, were ia
ken up by the roots, aud broken Oft. and
then carried TO the distance of forty or fifty
feet. A wagon. standing near the barD,
was carried some fifty, feeI, and consider
ably broken. A pig pen was bourne of
with pig in it, neither of which has ever
been seen since. Anuut eightorien bush
els of corn was blown away, and has never
heen found from that lime. The huuse-
hold furniture was nearly all destroved-
some blown entirely of; and large chest
contaiuiug the most valuable wearing ap
parei of the family. and all Of Mr.. P's
papers, was carried completely away
The chest was broken into pieces, and
some Of its conteuls were found a mile
from the place al which it startled.
Blu, strange TO relale, although there
were ten in family, none Of them were
killed Mr.. Perry, his wife, and Two chill
dren, and two negroes were injured; but
none of them fatally. And what is slrang
er sill, lwo of lbe children had gone TO
bed. and the bedstead upon which they
were lying. was blown of and broken.
and The he'd itself was torn iulo atoms,
and the children were thrown nloIhe road
uilhour receiving the slightest injury
there was not a thing killed on The place,
not even chicken, Sc far as could be as
ccrlilined.
This is certainly. an instance Of the
overriding and wise Providence of God!-.
For what power could nave preserved

were, in the very midst Of such havoc
and ruin, bul The mighty power of Omnl-
poience itself?

In your lis. Of complaints there you tell US
That the gallant young men, and the gay
Delightful and elegant fellows

In which, in moment Of leisure,
He hides as he would in srond
His beams seem much purer and brighter,
And even the moon seems TO smile,
With more exquisite radiance, and lighter,
For being Withdrawn for while.
You've no reason to fear our intention
To form anti-lnar:ying clans;
They are children OF mans own invention,
Aud we do no, approve of their plans.
So speak not oftrumpets or torches.
And those clubs they are horrible thingsi
The thought of them now almost scorches,
And dries up fe's noIer springs.

And we know that you: fsmpers forsiving,
Sowe'll kiss and shake hands when we meet.
