FROM BRITISH GUIANA AND PERNAMBUco-
Bloody Observation-Disclosures to the 9th ultimo
have been received from British Guiana The Co
lonial Legislature was opened February 10Th, at
Demerara, by the Governor Efforts were made
to reconcile the differences existing in regard to the
civil list Intelligence from Brazil had been re-
ceived, which confirms the previous report of an
insurrection at Pernambuco, on the 4th of Febru-
airy. Over seoen hundred persons had been killed.
1t had been extended, the captain of the British
ship Avon says, to Rio Janeiro and Bahia The
object of this extensive and sanguinary revolt was
two-fold: first, the freedom of the slaves; and
secondly, the formation Of democratic constitu-
ton throughout all parts Of the Brazilian empire.
The bark Una arrived at St Lucia on the 9TH of
February, 20 days from Sierra Leone, having on
board 367 captured Africans, who were to be i'm
mediately set to work, as they were in great de-
mand. Most of them were said to be healthy and
robust. Dispatches have been received, stating
that captured negroes are hereafter to be sent to
British Guiana instead of Sierra Leone. This is
welcomed as great boon to the islands.

PUBLIC RECEPTIONS AT WASHINGTON, ETC
The Washington Wing of the 4th inst, says :
Is On Tuesday, from noon to O'Clock, was the
Presidents usual reception of visits Of courtesy
The old hero looked remarkably well and was in
fine spirits. The crowd of strangers is gradually
falling off. There were not more than dozen Ia
dies and gentlemen paying their respects to him at
any one. time in the circular room. Mrs. Colonel
Bliss also received the sautations of vsiters in the
west parlor, with her accustomed grace and affa-
bility. 1t is noticed by every one, that the Presi
dent and his charming family are rapidly gaining
upon the esteem and affections of their visiters.
We regret to hear of the continued, though not Sc
rous, indsposition of Mrs. Gen. Taylor, but it is
hoped, that as the spring progresses, she will be
restored to perfect health. We noticed yesterday,
that the Secretary of the Treasury received COM
pany at his office with open doors. BY this true
republican mode of reception, he is enabled to dis
patch much larger amount of business requiring
the personal attention of citizens than by the usual
plan of granting separate audiences each visitor"

HEALTH OF SHREvEPoRT.-We learn, (says the
Shreveport Journal of the 4th,) from the few per-
sons who venture in from the surrounding country,
that the most terrible reports rife of the preva
lence here of cholera, small and divers other
of the most fatal diseases to which man is subject
How such reports originated, we cannot imagine.
That there has been an occasional case here,
strongly resembling cholera, we do not deny; but
we have yet to hear of the first case of smallpox.
The latter disease has, indeed, existed in one
family, eight miles from the place. "
KILLED.-Mr. Brown, an overseer in the parish
of Rapides, met a boatman by the name of Martin
in alexandria, on the LIST inst, and charged him
with stealing from him BROWN a doubloon.
Thereupon Martin challenged Brown to fair
fight; but the latter declined. Here Martin, at
the suggestion of some one present, walked off to
geta stick, and was in the act of picking up piece
of wood when Brown struck him three severe blows
on the head. Martins skull was broken in two.
places. The day after he was unable to articu-
late, and on the morning of the Sd he died, after
suffering the most acute pain.

THEIMAGE BROKEN.

BY MISS ANN G. LYNCH.
Twas bu, dream; fond and foolish dream:
The caleniure OF delifous brain,
Whose ever thirst ereares he rushing stream,
Now 10 the actual awake again:
The vision to my gaze one momeht granted,
Fades in lis light away, and leaves me d'senchan'-
ed.
The image that my glowing fancy wrought,
Now TO The dust Nth ruih!tss hand | cast:
Thus renounce The worship thai l sought;
OF my own idol the iconoclast.
The echo OF Eureka have found II
Falls back upon my heart, vain and empty
sound.
, D dsembodied being of my mind,
uS 10 wildly loved, so iarvenlly adcred;
In whom all high and elcrions eif S shrined,
And my hearts incense on the altar poured;
Now do Snow, that clad in mortal euise,
Ne'er on this earth wilt thou upon nv vision r!se.
That only in the vague cold realm Of thought,
Shall meet thee whom here seek in vain;
And like Egyptian Isis, when she sought
The scattered fragments OF Osiris slain,
Now do know iha, shall never find
But fragments OF thy soul within earIh's clay en-
shrined.
Thou whom have NO, seen, and shall not see
Till the sad drama Of This life be DER
Yet do not IeDouEce nv iai'h in thee:
Thou sill art mine, thine forever more;
And This belief shall be the funeral pyre
OF all less noble lovc,-or all less high desire.
Here, like the Hindoo widow, will bring
Hope, youth, and all that woman prizes mosi
The glow OF summer aud The bloom OF spring,
And on Thy altar Law the holocaust;
And in nv faith exuitne, / will see
The sacrifice consume, consecrate TO thee
To loves sweet tones my hear, will never thrill
Nor, as the tardy years their circles roll,
Shall they he ardor Of its pulses chill.
Thus will live in widowhood OF SOUL
Until, at last, my lingering exile DER,
Upon some loveIier star, 100 blessd, We meet once
more.
o, tell me not, that now indeed dream;
That these aspirinss Knocked al last will be-
Cleans OF higher life, 10 me they seem
A sacred pledge OF immortality.
Tell moi the yearniug heart il shall not find;
On Lo.e, thou are 100 strong On God, thou ar
TOO kind!
