The Yazoo City weekly Whig. (Yazoo City, Miss.) 18??-1855, 1853-02-04

Two NEW TERRITORIES have been planed
out BY Thomas Fl. Bsnton and others, to
the west Of the States of Missouri, Iowa and
Arkansas. The Government has never taken
any action on the subject, though various
bills on the subject have been from time to
time introduced into Congress without sue
cess. The first Of those unorganized terri
tories is that styled Nebraska, the name be-
ING the Indian title of the Platte river. This
extends from the fortieth degree of north
latitude to the forty third, and from the
Missouri river to the Rocky Mountains, and
includes an area of 10000 square miles.
Most of it is located between the same par
allels of latitude as the State Of Iowa. The
Platte river runs through the centre. Al
ready there are some white settlements in
this territory, the principal being at Bellevue,
Great Eamahaw Agency. Delaware Cross
ing, Fort Leayenwortll, and St. Mary's Mis-
sion, which towns have sent delegate to
Congress The soil of this territory is said
to be generally rich, alluvial, and much Of
the country is capable Of immediate occupa-
ton
The principal route to Oregon lies along
the Platte river, and that fact alone would
cause the rapid filing up of the territory
were it once under stable government, and
thrown open to settlers. The other unor-
ganized territory to which we allude has
been styled the Kanzas, from the large riy
erthat flows through it. As described by
its advocates, it extends from the Arkansas.
river, on the south, to the Great Platte riy
er Cd the north, and from the western boun
Diary Of Missouri, Iowa and Arkansas to
the main ridge Of the Rocky Mountains.
By the boundaries ne have given, it will be
seen that it takes in a large part Of Nebras-
ka, and especially the strip Of settlements.
AS Nebraska has long been faEorite pro-
iect of many western members Of Congress-.
It IS more than likely that there viii be a
conflict Of plans when Congress shall come
to act upon them.

"HoRR1BLE RUMoR. " Under this head the New
Orleans Bulletin Indignantly denies the report cir
cuated throughout the country, that the dead had
been burned in that city, in consequence of the diff
culty of providing for their burial. We say with
out hesitation, we sorry to see the denial and
still more sorry to see it made in form that
like repelling accusation of heinous criminalty
Why is this? The burning of the dead and the en-
shrining of their purified ashes in monu-
ments, the custom of people whc of all others
that ever lived most distinguished for their
rights of sepulture. The custom, therefore, comes
to remembrance, halowed by all that is religious
and poetcal in the remains of that literature which
has civilized and delighted all after ages.
Turn, then, from the beautiful and solemn sepul-
chral ceremonies of the Greeks in which the sacred
flame robbed death of all that was disgusting and
corruptble to the intramural burals of large cities
in time and especially during the visitation CT
fatal cpidemics, and judge which of the two speaks
most touchingly of reverence for the dead. Look
the descriptions of few years past of the
eteres of London where burial was done by jobbing
companies, andso little earth wasted in covering the
dead, that human carcases were the everyday food
of dogs and obscene birds. Look at all the great
tropical cities of times wherein during epidem-
les the cemeteries redolent of pestential vap-
ors and scenes of unmitigated disgust. Then ask,
this is really reverence for the dead which persists
in making them at once poison and loathing to
the living. Charleston MarcoTy.

THE suN.BRIGHT cLnlE.

IAN unpublished poem of Mrs. eraalis presented .
Christian Parler Magazine bysa friend. - :" 'ht
Have you heard-hay you heard of that sun-brpbt ,;
Unstained by sorrow, unhurt by time, Arle
M here Age hath no power Ger the fadeIess frame
Where the heart IS fire and the eyeis flame
Have ye heard of that sun-bright clime2
2 There are rivers of water gushing there,
s And beings of beauty strangely fair
And q thousand wings are lowering DER
The dazzling wave and the golden shore
That are fixed in that right cline.
There are myrads of forms arrayed in white,
Beings OF beauty clothed In light
And they dwell in their own immortal bowers
Amid the countless hues of ten thousand flowers
That spring In that sun-brght cline.
And there is the city whose name is Light:
And the diamonds ray, and ruby bright
And ensigns are waving and banners unfurl
Der walls of brass and gates of pearl
That are found in that sun-bright cline
Ear hath not heard, eye hath NOT seen,
Its songs of joy, or radiant sheen;
For its lamps of light and its harps of gold
And crowns of glory never wax old
Nor fade in that sun-bright cline
But far away is that sinless Cline
Unstained by sorrow, unhurt by time;
IT'S where the song of the seraph swell
Where the radiant Lord of Glory dwelIs.-
Where amid all things bright, there is given
The Home of the Just, and its name is Heay2or
The name of that sun-bright cline

orchard of 100 acres containing 1000 trees. Mr..
Davis it appears, left Philadelphia few years ago
and purchased his present farm-then considered the
poorest in the neighborhoodan set it out with
peach trees of twenty different varieties from New
Jersey As the farmers in that vicinity had tried for
and had uniformly failed, they considered the ex-
pertinent of Mr. Davis a foolish one and even went
so far to appoint committee to wait on him and
advise him to abandon it as it would certainly ruin
him. He perseYered however notWith standing 5000

six years ago. IN 1850 he gathered his frstscrop

which has been question of doubt for half

Pray how should T. a little lad
In speaking make figure?
You're only Joking, I'm afraid
Do wait till am bigger.
But, since you wish to hear my part
And urge me to begin it,
I'll strive for praise, with all my heart,
Though small the hope to win it.
I'll tell a tale how farmer John
little roam colt bred, sir,
And every night and every morn
He watered and he fed, sir.
Said neighbor Joe to Farmer John,
"Arn't you silly dolt, sir,
To spend such time and care upon
A little useless colt sir?"
Said Farmer John to neighbor Joe
&C. bring my little rome up
Not for the good he now can do,
But will do when he's grown up"
The moral You can well espy
To keep the tale from spelling;
The little colt, you think, is L.

And now, my friends, please to excuse
My lisping and my stammers;

And so-I'll make nv manners

referring to the Division question, asks:
81 want YOU, each and all-Jurymen, Wit

endure this unnecessary toll another forty

the greatest number" demands change
1t will be seen that nothing is said by
Snyder County about Lewisburg.' Yet

.The Chronicle is fearful that LtwIsnrRG

beds of iron ore will shortly control the trade

however, in the remark of the Chronicle, that
instead of Lcwisburg being forced array fIom

and its masters have forced the trade &c. from
Lewisburg."
Next time the Chronicles "masters" as
semblc at the s.great metropolis' of Longs

man who would wilfully peryert truth as
it is in the foregoing, is not mean enough
to steal sheep or rob his mother?
If the reader will cast his eye upon the
opposite page, he will see that the boasted

insignificant little towns are Selinsgrove,
Lewisburg, Frceburg, Middleburg, Har-

We can assure the Times, that Lewis
burg never had more trading business than
now-and that there is more building
going on than for several years past. In
other towns in the Northern part of the
county, we are happy to see the same
prosperity manifest.
From this specimen, the friends Of

fair or honest treatment they arc to cx-
