{" BURSTING IN AIR"

An enormous meteor was lately seen in the vicinity Of
Murg lntown, Va. The noi5e, which accompanied il, rreI-
led the belief that il was the explosion oi Mr.. H'nhtzeis
powder magazine. This was fonnd to be Incorrect; Tor the
iud report was caused BY oneof those mysterious travellers
through space, known as mercors. The Fayettc Wing thus
describes the splendid object:
Goa the dry and hour alluded 10, 4 brilliant meteor was
seen by several of cur citizens, movin. with gFelt velocity
IN Il direction South West. Ii was in sight tliee or four So
cnnGs, when it exploded into three pieces, the fragments cN-
pludinr again. No noise vas heard. At Stricklcr's Mill,
three miles Northeast Of this place, The report was dis
,incrly heard. and the explosion of the Meteor Witnessed.
4 gentleman who lett town on the evening oi The day
on which the phenomena occurred, .or The Big Tun-
mel. returned on Saturday last, and states that al S%Glthield,
nine miles South of This place, the explosion OF me Meteor
shook the buildings, and Il few miles further on a lady inform
I'd hin that she Ind witnessed the explosion, and thai, ap-
paren,iy, i, occurred Immediately over her stable. She says
thai The report was very loud-that the earth quivered. All
aor,c ~ 10 the tirnc-between four and five on tile afternoon
OF the l2ih. Oar informant was IN the contract of Mr.. llo-
bliizel a day ar Two after the reported explosion, and heard
moi a word about the powder Magazine. Ii is Il llllc sinsu-
lar that the report was not heard here.

The moon arises pale and wan,
And whispers to thec-hear, Y mani
"Moriers."
THE stars are ~twinkling In the sky;
The zephyrs fan me with a sigh:
They whisper too, that awful word,
Thai God pronounced and Adam heard!
"Morieris."
Our nigh, presages endless night,
Tha, neither moon nor stars shall lsht,
But darkness shall unhroken be:
Hear. then, o man, Nights cries to thee!
"Maricris."
Night, moon and stars, a%llall combine,
And all their warning voices join;
They all in solemn union cry
"preparc. short-sighted man, to die"
"Moricris."
They speak not, yet they plainly prove
There is a God who reigHs above;
And IL they prove that God does live,
Then must we His dread word believe

FROM HAYTI.-Capt. Parker, of the schooner Navarro,
arrived at this port on Sunday from Jeremie, informs us that
the Emperor Faustin lst was getting up an expedition
against 81. Domingo, by sea and land. Ii is said the naval
force would consist OF 2 large square rugged vessels and a
propeller. The latter was in preparation in some port of Eu-
rope, supposed in England.
Some thee weeks previous to Capt. P's sailing three
white inhabitants of influence had been beheaded, for what
the authorities considered a too free expression of police

A COUNTRY HOME FOR ME.


A COUNTRY HOME FOR ME.
lido not ask that city spires
May round my mansion rise,
But that my home may be where trees
Are pointing TO the skies;
Where flows the silvery mountain rlll
With a sweet and merry sound,
And echoes of the hunters gun
Shall through the woods resound.
l cannot love the city's pomp,
Its fashion and its pride,
/ had rather dwell in an humble cot
Upon the mountain side;
Where sweetly blooms the Acacia tree,
The tulip and the rose,
And where, beside the rivulets,
The early violet grows.
would not give my quiet home,
Its happiness and health,
For all the city palaces,
Its pleasure and its wealth;
/ love TO breathe the mountain air,
And roam where all is free,
Let othcrs choose a city life
But country home for me!
