81 will 60 and see Martin Brown N.Y.
SELF" added the General: 'sbut he will
have to make out strong case to alter
my determination
When Austin arrived in the evening
at his destination, the family of the grove
were almost distracted with grief
Browns countenance alone wore its old
mask Of marble tranquility. His story
told to Gen. Austin was simple as it was
brief:
at is true" he said, 81 was in the
penitentiary of Kentucky; but | was in
the Legislature before / was in the State
prison, and while a member of the Senate,
opposed with all my might, the manuIac-
ture Of SO many banks. These banks soon
beggared thousands, and among the rest
me and my children. Twas then tempted,
in order to save my family, TO perpetrate
forgery or do that OH a small scale, which
the State, and its banks had so long been
doing on large one. l paid the forfeit
Of my crime. While thegrand swindlers
rolled in spleneid affluence, pinned alone
in afelon's dungeon. Having served out
my time, have resolved never again to
commit another wrong. | have kept my
VOW, and have but one sole desire-to be
let alone, or die.
Gen. Austin did let the old man alone,
cancelled the order for his Punishment,
and was ever after his steadfast friend.
S-,the private secretary, made other
visits to the Green Heart Grove and the
beautiful Emma is now the wife Of an
eminent lawyer, and 'bright particular
star" Of fashions sphere at Galveston.
Martin died at last in peace, and was
buried in his beloved grove,-at his own
request. lin fantastic manner standing
erect in full hunters costume, with his
right hand raised towards heaven, and
his loaded rifle on his shoulder. His
biography proves a great truth-one
which all the tones Of human history pro-
claim, as the warning cry of million
trumpets-ssThat the crimes of govern
ment never fail to produce their counter
parts in the vices of their individual SUBJ
jects."

Thomas Moore, The Poet.
"An that's bright must fade,

"An that's bright must fade,
The brightest still The fee.est."
A private letter from London says,
that Thomas MooaE is now dead to the
world, "a softening Of the brain has COM
menced and his memory is completely
gone This announcement, says the
Boston Transcript, will throw pensive
shade over many heart. The songs OF
Moore! What fresiGes have they not
gladdened? To how many souls r
soft in the Silly nights
in serenades, or at family gatherings, have
they not whispered soothing thoughts or
brought pleasan. though mournful emo
tions. The world owes him more than
they think for. His songs have not been
displaced by any that have succeeded them.
Ask almost any lover of ballad singing what
is his or her favorite song, and the chance
is it will be one Of Moor's. And now.
"The harp that once in Tara's halls
Its soul of music shed,''
is broken. The master hand is placed.
The master voice is mute!
tsBue twill cheer his lone spirit to think there one,
Who'll kindly remember the bard when he's gone
Well-a-day, we'll a-day, well-a-day!'
