PARTING.

SADDENED are those deep, dark eyes
Tell me why?
DO they mourn DER sundered ties
Hope that die?
Gives the heart, with sorrow weary,
10 the future, still more dreary,
One sad sighs
Ties we weave we sooh must sever
Such is fate;
And the heart is left forever
Desolatc;
Like some calm, unruffled ocean,
Dead to every past emotion
Love or hate.
To me never as another
Canst thou be;
Gentle sisters love for brother,
Bear not me;
Here that dream for ever endeth-
Other hope with friendship bIendeth
MournfuIly.
Less, or something more, than friend
Wilt thou be?
Nor doubt, enduring to the end
Trustfully:
Words ofpartiDg we have spoken,
Still vow, through life, unbroken
Love to thee.-R.

HE Term LADY.--The term lady
is very significant, and the woman
who is indeed worthy Of this dslin-
gulshed title, will appear from the fol-
lowing which, so far as we can learn,
is the true etymology of the term la
dy. The word originally was Ieafdi-
on, from leaf, or iaf, which signifies
q loaf of tread; az d dion to serUe.
This word acas afterwards changed
into lafdy, and at length into ladv.
Thus OF perceive that the true mean.
ing Of The term is, one acho distributes
bread. From this exposition, have
we not reason 10 fear that many en-
dorsed themselves ladies, must give up
all claims 10 so honorable tile? In
times Of yore, women of the very frst
rank, applied themselves with admira-
BILE alacriiy TO the business of seeking
out the poor and needy, Of ministering
their necessities; and hence they were
by way Of distinction termed ladies'.
My fair reader; would you be Iady;
not only in name, but in reality? Go
thou then and be likewise This IS a
season when many mus, suffer, unless
you are engaged IN your high voca-
ton. o forget no. the deSo7dte ridow,

be true, why has it not been noticed
by the papers generally?
We are indebted to the poIiteness Of
Mr. Tiff, of the James L. Day, for a

We got neither slips nor letters with

The news is particularly important

bring England TO terms on the Oregon

We learn also, that the ship Kappa

before 2he mail left, with dates from
Liverpool of The 10Th ult. It confirms
the intelligence of the death of Louis

news of the formation Of new Eng

SPECTRAL VIsIoN-The Boston Med
lcal Journal Says gentleman in the
city, known for his intelligence and
enterprise, for years past has been
entertained with singular SPECTRAL
visitor whenever he enters a certain
gate lin front of relatives h6use on
Washington street, bordering on Ros
bury. He is met by a large, full fac
ed, ford complexioned man, dressed
in broad brimed white hat. This oc.
ours at all hours of the dav. The
spectre recedes from him as he advan-
ces, and near the front door is lost in
the air. He assures us that he takes
pleasure in looking at his intangible
vision full in the eye-examines the
color and cut of his garments, and now
regards him as an old, familiar AZ.
quaintance. The gentleman is not con.
scious of having defective vision. Il is
evident that morbid action takes place
in his brain, through it's connection
with the optic apparatus-and that the
specific is febropuced by local causes
existing at the gate which cannot vet
be explained.

Scearing.--Of the many vices to
which men are addicted, none appears
so dispicable in the eyes Of the truly
upright, as the presumtious practice of
swearing. What excuse for il is avail
able? Because men are mad, must
they therefore call upon God' Ifthose
horrid oathsto which men addict them
selves, should be heard TO escape from
the soft velvet lips of the most beautiful
and accomplished lady, the yiIest Of men
would turn with koathing and disgust
from her. The following is so true,
that some men can see themselves clear
ly reflected in it.
Whatever fortune can be made by
perJHry, | believe there never was a
man who made fortune by swearing.
1t often happens that they are paid for
II. 1t is not easy to perceive whose
honor or credit is connected with it.
Does any man receive promotion be-
cause he is noble blusterer? Or is
any man advanced in dignity because
he is expert in Prcfare swearing! Low
must be the character which such i'm
pertinence will not degrade. : Inexcusa-
BILE, therefore, must be the practice
which has neither reason nor passion
to Support it. The drunkard has his
cups; the lecher has his mistress; the
satlrlSt his reVenge; the ambitious ma4l
his Preferment; the miser has gold; but
the common swearer has nothing; he
sells his soul for nought and drudges
IN the service Of the devil gratis.
Swearing is void OF all plea; it is not
the offspring Of the soul, not interwo
ven with the rextSre oflhe body; nor
any how allied toou frame. For, as
Thlo'son expresses it, although some
men pour out oaths as if they we're
natural, yetno man was ever born Of
a swearing constitution"

FRoM CHINA.-The advi ces from Chi
ma, by the Cambria, do not possess and
special interest
The China mail says that a young
man of loose habits, at Hong Kong,
residing with his mother, who was
greatly afflicted with rheumatism, neg
lected TO take proper care of her. She
repfoached him with his neglect, and
becoming infuriated he rushed upon
and Strdng3ed her. For this horrible
crime he has been sentenced to be Gu.
INTO ten thousand pieces in the open
market pldce.-The sentence has been
confirmed by the Emperor.
From the Hong Kong papers we
learn that the British authorities have
taken the initial steps towards the re-
'ention of Chusan-the object at which
they have costantly aimed since fin
ding out that the impression which
prevailed when the treaty was con
cluded, that this island was unhealthy
was unfohnded.

WHISPERING GALLERY.

ing gallery in the world is, after all
said, in ST. Paul's at London. There
is good one in this city. Ii is formed

Park Theatre. On Saturday night
last, person whose externas smacked
of the Jerseys, sat in the front seat of
the third tier, directly against one end
Of the arch, and in he precise spot fit
for an operator on the opposite side.
The. @ag eyed the countryman, and
said, in llow zone,
"You are nice man."
The stranger started and looked
around, but could see nobody that new
him, and therefore settled himself down
to look at the ballet again. His tor
mentor recommended,
81 say, you are. nice man TO be
caught here"
The couutryrnan turned pale
'1'll tell your wife how you spend
your evenings in New York"
The victim arose, and looked anx-
iously around.
The tormentor continued,
"A man of your years, and with our
family, should be in any part of the
house but the Third tier.''
The man hastily got up, rushed for
the door, and left without taking a
check.

ters of The United States by r. w. An
Serson. 1t will be read with interest
by every planter
RELATIVE value of producing Corn and
Cotton, IN Mississippi and South Ala
bama-throwing in the difference in

against the interest on the increased
quantity of land, and trouble of re-
failing corn:

As the planters of North Alabama do
not make more than from oHe-half to

others plant, and cultivate, eleven or
twelve acres in cotton 10 the hand, (the
general crop fromr3 to 10 acres,) and
IN a lew instances more, and less, than
my estimates
And while I have met with some
planters, whose land onty.yIelded three
or four hundred pounds of seed cotton
to the acre, other 4and mas yielded four
teen or fifteen hundred pounds per acre.
Many acres III Carolina aud Georgia, I
yield less than three hundred pounds |
Of seed cotton per acre; while a few
crops in the Monroe Prarie's, and Mis-
sisslPPl alluvial lands, have exceeded |
fifteen hundred pounds of seduction
to the acre.
And while some lands have only well
ded len bushels of corn to the acre.
Others have yielded fifty or sixty bush
els per acre.
And, with regard TO housing crops,
during my soJourn in the northern and
eastern counties of Mississippi, some
planters had housed their crops Of corn
and cotton by the first of November;
others housed their crops by the 25th
II December, and probably some are
lot done yet.
In making the foregoing estimates,

crops, have omitted the expense of
