Levelling her mountains, filling up her

Gail Flesh is Grass, and the Goodness

Gall Flesh is Grass, and the Goodness
thereof as the Flower Of the Field"
Twas autumn, and I wandered forth
To mark the falling leaf, and muse alone,
As silently 1t fell upon the dropping her
bage,
Whispering in its fall, "all flesh is grass
The form and comeliness thereof is as
the flower
That falls before the blast" and dies
I gazed abroad upon the fields, where
Verdure and plenty waved; they now
were waste;
And, as gazed upon, the dull air rose,
The sound of rattling wheels, the noisy
din
OF moving muItitudes, hurrying to and
Workmen were passing to their shops !;
The toil-worn husbandman, with weary
tread,
Following the plough, whistled sadly as
he went:
Nature is dying; and soon will dreary
winter,
Wrap her in her shroud but, who can
tell
Whether yon busy multitude shall pass
away.
Err'd he who said, sail flesh is grass2"
Nay, friend, he err'd not; for the blast of
death
Sweeps the fair field of this vain world :;
For rank, or wealth, or intellect, it cares
not,
But lays the human family in one CON-
mon grave,
And DER them sighs one common requi-
EN-?
GAIL flesh is grass, and as the flower
that fadeth,
So is man." His ashes mingle with his
mother earth,
! Nor stone, nor useless epitaph shall
mark his tomb.
The good, the great, the mighty men of
old,
Like dying echoes from the earth, have
passed.
The sacred temple and gorgeous palace
Lie crumbling in the dust. Cities,
where once
The pomp and pageantry of wealth,
Shone in sad contrast with the tattered
rags,
The hallow cheek, the sunken eye Of
poverty, a''-' ,'
Are now the abode of beasts.
| AS break Old oceans waves in quick
succession.
! On the rocky shore, and die away upon
the bosom Of the deep,
So dash upon the shore Of time, the race
| Of men, f'.' - =.
Foaming and murmuring for a moment
| Then silently and durkIy, into the DO.
Of the unknown deep retires.
Mark yonder war horse. Majestic thun.

Fossil. REMAINS OF MAN.-According
to the United States Gazette, very re-
markable discovery has recently been
made of the fossil remains of the human
species. They consist of the bones of
the pelvls, and were discovered by DR..
NJ. w. Dickerson, in the mamoth ra-
vine, near Natchez Mississippi, in the
same stratifca,ion with the bones of the
megatherium miiodn, megulonyx, the
tapia, castroides, zebra, bison, elk, gil
gantic horse, and a nondescript animal,
discovered also by Dickerson, and below
those Of the mastodon, and stratum
containing marine shells. This discov-
cry is perhaps the most remarkable one
that has lately characterized the progress
of modern geolgy. These curiosties
have been deposited in the rooms of the
Academy of Natural Science in Phila.
delphia.
Col. JOHN L. MANNING This gen.
tleman with his accustomed liberality,
and fondness for letters; has endowed
scholarship in the South Carolina Col
lege, for the education of INDECENT and
clever young men. While the act be-
speaks the benifcence of the donor, it
is an example, which should only be
more generally followed in South Caro-
lima. We scarcely take up a paper
from New England, in which, we do
not find some instance of asmilar be.
stowments upon the literary institutions
ofthose States; while jn South Carolina,
so noted for its individual wealth. and
refinement, not more than half dozen
acts of the kind are upon record. We
trust. this noble charity Of Col. Manning,
will SO stimulate others in our State,
that while! it will appear they are, blest
with, ,amuence, it will no longer be
reproach, they have not learnt to apply
i to elegant and intellectual purposes.
