There is no news in Nashville; some few cases of
cholera reported but no deaths. The news OF the death
OF General Worth spread great gloom whole
community, especially over those who had him
upon The tented field and who had shared with him the
honors and the hardshps of the late campaign in Mex
leo His spirit hath flown from EARTH yet the star OF his
glory will long the proud bird OF liberty
perches amid the stars and stripes which aiorn
escucheon will the wave OF oblivion" roll over
the of Worth long there remains an Amer
heart which appreciate honor chivary, and true
patriotism, or whose bosom would swell with mingled
pride and enthusiasm, when reflection whispers in his
ear that he, too, is an American"

That he, whose valiant arm hath carved a name
High and distinct within the op-most niche OF Fame
That he, about whose brow a nations grateful hand
Hath wined laurel chaplet, never fading wreath,
A token of their devotion, gratitude, and love,
Should be the "shning mark" shot at by Death
That he whose manly breast had borne untouched
harmed, the baue's strife,
When death, If ever sweet-yea, more to be desired
than life
Tina, that dauntIess heart, which beat proud
and quick
Amid the clash OF arms and cannons deal ming roar,
Upon the blood-staned battle grounds OF Mexico,
Should lie child, gone from midst for
That great, noble a the gallant Worth,
Should thus be prematureiy snatched from earth.
The weather has been quite warm, and much sickness
may be anticipated from the frequent and high stages

is mainly due TO the Independent men OF all
