As Spring upon silver cloud
Lay looking ON the world below,
Watching the breezes as they bowed
The buds and blossoms to and fro,
She saw the fields with Hawthorns walled;
Said Spring. ssNcw buds win create"
She to a Flower spirit called,
Who on the month of May did wait,
And bade her fetch Hawthorn spray,
That she might make the buds OF May
Said Spring, 80 The grass looks green and bright,
The Hawthorn hedges too are green,
I'll sprinkle them with flowers of light,
Such stars as earth hath never seen;
And all through England's grded wales,
Her steep hill-sides and haunted streams,
Where Woodlands dip into the dales,
Where er the Hawthorn stands and dreams,
Where thick-leaved trees make dark the day
I'll light each nook with flowers of May.
" Like pearly dew-drops, white and round,
The shut up buds shall first appear,
And in them be such fragrance found
As breeze before did never bear:
Such as in Eden only dwelt,
When angels lowered round its bowers,
And long-haired Eve at morning knelt,
In innocence among the flowers;
While the whole earth was every way
Filled with perfume sweet as May.
'sAnd oft shall groups of children come,
Threading their way through shady places,
From many peaceful English home.
The sunshine falling on their faces;
Starting with merry voice the thrush,
AS through green lanes they wander singing,
To gather the sweet Hawthorn bush,
Which homeward in the evening bringing,
With smiling faces, they shall say,
There's nothing half so sweet May!
'And many poet yet unborn
Shall link its mime with some sweet lay,
And lovers oft at early
Shall gather blossoms of the May,
With eyes bright as the silver dews,
Which on the rounded May buds sleep;
And lips whose parted smiles difuse
A sunshine DER the watch they keep,
Shall open all their white array
Of pearls, ranged like the buds of May
Spring shook the cloud on which she lay,
And slvered DER the Hawthorn spray,
Then showered down the buds of May.

friends to take hunt Deer Creek and they stop

stout athletic man, about six feet two inches in
height, and wore his hair and beard very long His
cheeks, nose, and upper lip were deeply SCARED,

widow had often 'hearn tell on Rube' but had new

After supper, which consisted of fried and stewed
bar meats the widow, who had been listening to
RUDE telling hunting stories, and had watched his
curious oountenance was suffering all the torures of
an anxious curiosity, to find out what had SCARED
his face. She could hold in nolongcr, and at last

OBITUARY.

George w. Henderson, a merchant Of this
place, died at Springfield La on the 2lst inst,
died in the meridian of life and in the midst
Of his usefulness. He had been attacked with
Cholera in New Orleans, n short time beIorc'
but had been pronounced well and out of dam
ger by his physician. Business requiring his
atte ton in Springfield, he proceeded to that
place, where he died on the day after his arrival.
His remains reached his late residence on the
evening Of the 26th; and were yesterday con
signed 10 " darkness and the worm" amid the
tears Of his friends!
The news of this melancholy event has cast
a gloom over our whole population, and clothed
our village in mourning. The closed dooTs and
suspended business, that followed the an
nouncement-t the spontaneous and general
burst Of sorrow, that we have all seen and iel',
bespeak the virtues of the dead. Such o
tribute to his memory, prOclaims the high es'i-
nation, in which he was held, better, lar bet
ter, than the studied language Of eulogy. This
any hand may fame and any character receive
but that the good alone caa claim!
"George Henderson " is a name, which was
always pronounced with kindness, and 1t viii
never be spoken 10 the futup, but to awaken
recollections OF departed worth. He was be-
loved and respected by all who knew him; iol
lie was strictly a man " without lear and with
out reproach." He has faithfully discharged
his duty in all the relations OF lIfe-as citizen
and man-as father, husband, and friend. tie
was all that is embraced in the word gentleman
in its highest sIgnlicatiOn-just, honest, ana
honorable.
May he rest in peace" [JuGdi'on'Gn
Died, on the 9th November, at his residence
in BoHvar county, Miss Col. WIN. ?. PERKINS,
late Of Madison county, IN the 65'h year o.
his age.
Upon reviewing the past life and canvasslng
the innumerable virtues Of our departed trend
we eni " the grateful consolation, among an
extensive circle Of devoted relatives and trends
Of knowing that bis closing Ito and expiring
moments wele illuminated by the brilliant
premises Of the Cross; and it sincerity OF Pur'
pose is a passport to the mansions OF bliss, nc
