Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1846-03-27

GREAT HEAT.-Advices have been receiv-
ed from the expedition of Capt. Stuart in
New Holland. He left Port Adelaide year
and a half ago to proceed northNard, and had
advanced about five hundred miles, to longi-
tude 1il.3 east, and latitude 29.40 south.
His description of the heat, at the highest
northern point, is positively fearful. He says;
81 found the Thermometer, which was fixed
in the shade of a large tree, four feet from
the ground, stationary at $50 degrees Of
Fahrenheit at half past , p. NJ, and in the
direct rays Of the sun, it rose to l57 degrees.
1t had, on a former occasion, stood at 1872
degrees in the shade, and lG3 degrees in the
sun !"

THE BREED CAPTIVE.

By the following letter it will be seen that
Burr comes forth from his prison house I'M
conquered. He can feel for those in bonds,
for he has been bound with them. We wei.
come him to freedom, and 10 anti-slavcry

ANOTHER SLAYER CAPTuRED.-The ship
Panther, in charge of Midshipman Macomb,
in seventy-fve DAYS from Cabenda, on tho
coast of Africa, arrived at Charleston on Mon
day evening. She is a prize to the United
States sloop of wal Yorktown, having been
captured and sent home, under suspicion Of
being engaged in the slave trade.-Pa. Free
man.
STILL ANoTHER.-The schooner Robert
Wilson, of Baltimore, last from Havana, ar.
rived at Port Praya on the 18th of January,
where she was detained by Commodore Skin
ner, of the Yorktown, on suspicion of being
engaged in the slave trade.
This is really doing very well. The change
which the abolitionists are producing in the
public sentiment, it would seem is beginning
to be fell even in the United States Navy
This Commodore Skinner, where does no
hail from =! north or south III.
AND YET ANoTHER.-By late advices from
the coast of Africa, we learn that Fl. b. M.
ship Penelope lately captured a steamship
fitted up for the slave trade. She was sent
to st. Helena and condemned. There were
four Americans on board, whom the com.
mander brought to Monrovia to be delivered
up to an American man of war. There be-
ing none there, he took them back, ana they
would remain on board the British ship until
some United States vessel ~arrived."-I6.
STRANGE VIsIroR.-A very beautiful sea-
bird was discovered at Montauk, l.. l., some
miles from the ocean, on the day after the
late tempest. 1t could neither walk nor fly,
and did not attempt to escape. 1t was
quite unknown to the inhabitants, and a-
Ter having been sufficiently admired, was
committed to the waves and went away re-
joicing.
TosAcco.-The Allegheny Methodist Con-
ference lately resolved that no minister shall
be admitted to this Conference who uses to-
barco in any Of its forms, except as a medi-
cine, and in that case satisfactory evidence to
be given"
True SENTIMENT. The power of the
sword perishes with the arm that wields il
but a good mans book lives and works fol-
ever.
Some editor, commenting upon the motto
Of Florida, "Let us %alone," said that Texas
should adopt that of " Send US a loan."
CHARITY. How noiselessly the snow
comes down! You may see it, feel 1t, bu
never hear it. 1t is like true charity.

of blackish water, in state of stagnation: al
together unfit to be drunk but on their dis
covering it they plunged into it, swallowing

"Several of the citizens succeeded with

TRANsLATED FROM THE GERMAN. s.
There is little mystic clock,
No human eye hath seen; rhI
That bea seth on--and bcatcth on,
From n1orning until cen.
And whcn the soul is wrapped in sleep,
And heareth not a sound
IL ticks and ticks the livelong night,
And never runneth down.
o wondrous in that work of art
which knells the passing hour,
Bur art nc'er formed, nor mind conceived,
The life-clock's magic power.
Nor set in gold, nor deckcd with gems
:, BY wealth and pride possessed
but rich or poor, or high or low,
Each bears il in his breast
when LIES deep stream, mid beds of fIowers
All still and softly glides,
70 Like the wavelct's step, with a gentle beat
IL warns of passing tides.
When threapning dar kne,s FATHERS o.cr
And Hopes bright visions fee,
Like the sulen stroke of the muffted oar
IL beatcth heavily,
Where passion nerves the warrior arm
For deeds OF hate and wrong
Though needed not the fea rIul sound
The kneli Is deep and strong
When eyes to eyes are gazing soft
And tender words are SPOKEN,
Then fat and wild it rattles on
AS II with love 'twcic Broken
Such is the clock that measures life
:, OF flesh and spirit blended
And thus twill run within the breast
Till that strange life is ended

Burlington hawk-eye. [volume] (Burlington, Iowa) 1845-185?, 1846-08-20
Important from Washington.

We learn from the correspondence Of
the Philadelphia Inquirer under date of
5ih inst, that the President has sent a
message TO the Senate, proposing to send
Mr. Slideli to Mexico as minister. He
proposes to require as the basis of re.
newal of pacific relations. California as an
indemnify. The President also proposes
to ask of Congress three millions of del
lars to purchase some of the western de-
partmen,s Of the Mexican Republic.
1t was believed that Mexico was will
ing TO receive Commissioner or Minis.
ter and assent TO terms of peace. The
rumnr was that Commissioned from
Mexico had arrived at Washington.
1t was expected that the French spoil.
alton Bill would be vetoed.
The Land Graduation Bill has been
rejected in the House.
The Sub Treasury has passed the
Senate with some amendments. 1t was
before the House again al las, dates. Mr.
McKay's motion to extend the specie
clause TO April next instead Of January
was rejected.

Nrange, but frue.--We have been in.

the 9Th, by the officers of the boat, that

on board, accompanied by lady. whom
he placed under the charge of the Capt,
as near relation, with a resues, tina, he
would pay some attention to her and see
her safe to her place of sisemb ark alton.
TO this the captain readily consented, and
every thing went well until the boat was
near Louisville. where her protector first
discovered signs of arrangement. Al,
Louisville, medical attendance was pro.
cured. and the physician confirmed what
the passengers pposed--that she was
maniac. On arrival at this place she was
placed in the Luna,c Asylum, for safety,
until claimed by her relations. Her name
we understand is Sampson or Lawson.
1t is hoped that she may soon he relieved
from so unfortunate condition,
