DEATH BED SCENE,

We copy from the Kentucky Gazette
the following description of the last mo
ments of John U. Warning, Esq, a dis
tlngulshed attorney, who was shot a
versailles, Ky, on the 10Th ult., by q
young man named Richardson, son o.
Samuel Q. Richardson, whom Waring
killed some years ago at Frankfort
The ball entered just above his left eye
which was forced from its socket, and
rested on his cheek. 1t passed through
the root of his tongue, down his throat
and perforated his lungs. immediately
after recovering from few momeuts oil
lnsenslhility, he made. signs for writing
materials finding he was misunderstood,
with all the force he could muster, he
teebly articulated the word ink Sup
posing he wished his will written. law.
yer was called in for that purpose. War.
ing refused his assistance, drew the ms-
terlals towards him, and wrote number
OF notes, requesting the attendance of
MS son-In.law, papers from the Clerks
othces and his residence, etc. Having
procured what he required although
bleeding rapidly at short intervals from
his nostrils and mouth, without display
ing the slightest symptoms of pain, he
proceeded calmly and sternly with his f.
nal task, at which he was engaged until
late at night. He completed some unfin-
Ished contracts, entered into new one,
gave receipts, settled accounts, brought a
suit, drew up his will, and arranged all
his worldly affairs, as far as it was pos
sible.
The scene, whilst thus engaged, has
been described to US as being the most
melancholy and appalling one ever wit
messed. The internal hemorrhage COM
PEELED him to remain in a sitting posture
from the time he was wounded until he
died. His gray hairs dabbled with his
own blood, with which his dress and per-
son wore almost entirely covered-his spec
tacles pressed firmly down upon his protru-
ded eye, which rested in ghastly prominence
upon his cheek, he piled his pen with relent
less determination. Life's last sands were
ebbing fast-minutes had become to him
things of the last importance. Yet, pre-
cious as the fieeting moments were, his la
bors were greatly heightened by the occa-
sional rapid election of gore from his mouth,
bespattering and celebrating what he had
written. Pushing the blood-stained sheets
aside, his task was again resumed with I'M
shaken tirmness. In this seeming conflict
between destiny and himself, Waring tri-
he lived twelve hours longer than
the physicians deemed possible, and had still
time to have paid some attention to his eter-
nal welfare. Our information leads us to
believe that this was entirely disregarded,
and that he died as unforsiving as he had
lived. tits said that one ofhis family beg
ged, on Bonded knees, that he (Waring)
would forgive his enemies-he shook his
head and stamped his foot in stern denial.
So passed from this earth, after a life of
turmoil, strife, bitterness, and bloodshed,

The Bligllted ROse-B
BY FANNY FOREST E R

"Poor Lily - SAID, or rather sighed.
Rachel Blair, as she laid her knitting on
the small square table by which she
was seated and walked, for the twentieth
time to the window. She was followed,
as she had been each time previous, by
her young brother Arthur; and in mo-
ment, they were joined by the grca. house
dog, which laid his cold nose in her hand
and whined alphabetically, then looked
up into her face, as though to assure her
that he participated in her anxiety. At
ter gazing wishfully, for moment, from
the window, against which the chilling
sleet was driving furiously, Rachel turn
ed to little rose bush that stood beside
it. and began loosening the soil around
the root although it was before as mel
low as the little stick resting against the
rim of the jar, and precisely the right
quantity of moisture, could make it.

then she sighed again.

"Poor Lily!"

"And so fragile. Just like her."
The boy was evidently anxious to say
q comforting word but he only looked at
Rachel, and then at the dog, and then re-
turning to his seat gazed fiXeGly into the
fire.
Rachel and Arthur, were the only chill
dren of good old farmer Blair; but there
was another who was a sister 10 them,
and daughters we'll beloved and aitec-
tonate daughter, to their parents. Lillian

who had been for six months only an in-
mate of her uncle's house bu. tina! short

around their hearts, that sweet Llly's

Lillian was a delicate blossom, a tender
flower, more fragile than the pale spring
buds she loved so we'll !; and she required
the training of careful hand. She
spent the sunimer in the green fields and
beneath the shady trees, watched over
and guarded by her kind cousin Rachel
and the careful Arthur, and when autumn
came she went away to the busy city, &c
spend the winter me nths with fashion
able aunt; for thus il had been decreed
that she should divide her life between
her two guardians. Lilian's parting
gift to her cousin was beautiful rose
bush that she had brought with her Il

identified with herself.

WILL THERE BE WAR?

The London Patriot of March 9th says
Everywhere we arc met with the ques-
ton, Are we to have war with America?
Why, it is almost like talking of war be
twixt London and Liverpool. Should the
merchants and traders of Boston, New York,
and Baltimore suffer President Polk to
pander to the worst passions of the worst
portion ofthe American community, by even
rsking collision with this country, we
shall tegin to think that they have neither
any British blood nor any of the spirit of
the Pilgrim Fathers left in them.'

All animate nature is Weakened around,
The season returning when pleasures abound;
The sun-beams, how cheering! the landscape
sogay!
How splendid the morning of charming May
Day
BY beauty and odors invited from home,
AS children of Nature, With Nature we roam
Through groves, and savannas, and meadows, we
stray,
Our senses delighted, on flowery May.Day
Not only in beauty, but music, we find
Delight to the senses and JOY to the mind;
With thrush, lark, and robin, on each budding
spray,
We join the grand chorus on blooming May
Day
From town and from country with gambols and
smiles
The children are hocking where fancy beguiles
We view with delight, while thegirls and bows
play,
The juvenile pleasures of blooming May Day {!
With social affection the season inspires
The grand-dames and madens--the sons and
and the sires:
From rose and from hawthorns, with ornaments
gay,
They join the procession on fowery May Day
To close the bright scene; and more brilliant
than all
The ladies with gentlemen meet at the ball;
Their brows and their bosoms rich garlands
display,
With all the rich fragrance of blooming May
Day!
But richer in sweetness, imprisoned we say,
Are the bosoms they shade, than the flowrs
May-Day.
Then joining, my friends, with affection and
voice,
All nature inviting to sing and rejoice;
Responding 10 nature, exulting we say,
The world is in raptures, on charming May
Day!
