DIED OF STARVATION ,''-God Of Heaven -
We wildly ask--can this be so p
We, to whose board is kindly given
Zach bounty that earth can bcstow
So well are all our wants supplied,
That we scarce deem it true, when said
That human ones, like US, have died
Are dying now-for want of bread
fDIED OF STARVATION l''-Ah! no more
Pause at the words, or doubt the tale
Each ship that cometh to shore
From Erins island brings the vail
OF millions calling out for aid
OF sick and dying humankind
For, in the track by FAMINE made,
The PLAGUE, dread monster, stalks behind
"DIED OF STARvATIoN i"-Did'st thou hear
Those words, proud woman, on thy throne p
VICTORIA! did thy gentle ear
E'cr bark a starving wrrtch's moan p
If not, go list the frantic call
Of those who cry aloud for bread
Go where, like blighted leaves, they fall
And gaze on the uncoffined dead!
"DIED OF STARVATION = Shall we stand
Unmoved, by Erin's misery?
All, no! but let the helping hand
Go from amidst the blest and free =
Let us divide with her our wealth.
For her sad ones granaries opc-
And to their vast forms give health,
And to their dropping spirits, hope.

HORRID OCCURRENCE.

A circumstance of rather a heinous character.
bordering on crime was related To us on board the
steamboat Selma. On her downward trip Rev
Mr.. j. ID. Lee, who has been a resident of An
iaugua Comfy for some time past, and has per-
formed many pastoral duties in the neighborhood
adjoining our city, came on the boat al Gardners
Landing, with two ladies under his charge. and
% or 81 negroes, which he said were going on to
Louisiana. The morning after the enbarkaion
new born child was found by one of officers of
the boat. on the cotton aft Of the wheel house.
and Immediately under the ladies' cabin After
the matter was exposed on the boat and things
became public. suspicion, from among ten or ff
teen ladies', rested on one of Rev. Mr. Lees com
pany, though both of those ladies' were at the
breakfast table that morning. Every person be
ing anxious To ascertain the perperator Of so helm
aus crime, the captain wisely gave it out that
no person should leave the boat, on her arrival at
Mobile, until the fact was ascertained When
the gentleman was openly accused Of it, he came
forward and stated that Miss Reddy. one of his
company, the mother. After the occurrence
the guilty man undertook to add new theme To
the crime, by trying TO throw the child overheard,
and thus hide the stigma of the woman by bury
inn II in the river. II seems that this Miss Red
dy was daughter of his (Lee's) sister, and had
heen living In his house from childhUod The
culpnts arrived in Mobile as the Lake boat was
leaving for New Orleans. and the unnatural moth
or taking the feminine creature along with her.
thereby bafnrd the civil authorities of the city
from their rigid course.--y9lG. Stale Guard

CONFUSION OF PARTIES.

The war in Mexico has created strange con

ties. and In Congress we see th"se who have been

may be found acting against Democrats and even
