a H-7BoY THATBUcKED TEE BULL OFF
THE BAYOU BRIDGE

Mid the verjs. 1t, sweet Savannah,
By the rolling lark bayou. !.
Ever in the forest Ion ely
Eve and morning. nia.. 2 and noon
Hunted he the fox and squffrs4,
Or the possum and raccoon.
Though he was modern Nimrod,
Yet he bore no hunters name.
For his mothers heart had always,
Burned with poetic flame,
"Nascitur" are still "epta."
But name might make him one.
So she called him Laratheta-
By that name he fit and won.
Long had Lara reached the wildwood,
Dread of cen the catamount big
Dread too oft ofstraying chickens,
Or a neighbors errant pig
Till he spied, beneath of holly,
Standinging on a moss grown bank,
A dear maid beneath whose gances,
All his heart within him sank.
Long he stood and gazed upon her,
While she, like timid fawn,
Gazed upon first at Laratheta,
Gazed down next upon the lawn.
When at length, with ardent longing,
Spoke he in the wildwood dark,
She, as fearing some deep wronging,
Ran as ne'er did "Cutty Satk."
Straight to herpapa's plantation
Made she for the bayou bridge,
Yelling like the whole Greek nation,
AS she crossed the nearest ridge,
Swift he followed, and imploring;
Would she for a moment stop?"
Hark what meant that awful roaring
AS he reached the BRIDGES top?-
Gives him pause, yet ere consider
Alton once could cross his mind,
Comes bull with tufted head down,
And his tail erect behind.
Making straight at Laratheta,
Believing like very cure
Zen had Lara's name been Peter,
Could the bull have acted worse
Like the Indian whom the ''poet'
Speaks of in the g Dark Yazoo,"
What could Lara do but go it,
Notwithstanding the bulls, " boo?"
So, without single thinking,
Headlong at the ball he &c es-
Almost meets him-quick as winking
Falling meath the buIlock's nose
AS the bull went plunging over
'Gainst the bridges tott'ring rail-
Laratheta rose, and gazing
In the bayou, saw his tail;
Then he ran on after Phoebe,
(By the way that was the name
!. OF the nymph who meath the holly
First had reused his passions fame.)
She was on her fathers bosom,
Clinging close unto his breasti
Caring naught for Laratheta;
Long as there she could but rest.
Laratheta needed not her,
But spoke out with accents grim:
"Sir, your bull is in the water,
And twas / that buck'd at him."
Quick the farmer stretched his hand forth,
Laratheta's palm to catch,
And he spake out, "Phebe, stand forth I!
This young man is sure your match.
Take my bull from out the water
Twas my favorite bull, the "Midge,"
And the man shall have my daughter
Who did buck him off the bridge"

Trade on the Can&-Dead Body Of u Child
Found, Sc.
DEAR RIcKErTs:-With the advance
ment Of spring the business OF the "Di-
vided City" continues to improve, and
for the week past, trade upon the canal
has been quite spirited. Manilestly
there are indications of an unparalleled
business being done the present year via
the canal.
On the afternoon of Sunday last
cutie an excitement was created in this
place by the announcement that child
lay dead upon the tow path Of the canal,
within half mile of the town. Upon
reliable information, VIM. p. Chopper,
Esq, acting coroner, summoned a jury
and proceeded to the spot indicated,
where, upon examination there was
found child sewed up in muslin
cloth, which, from appearances had
been in the water for sevaral days. The
body was conveyed to the Office OF DR..
Trites, Of this place, where that gentle
man made post mortem examination;
upon the result of which it was clearly
demonstrated that the child was one OF
twins and dead born. The Jury render.
ed verdict in accordance with the
facts elected by the examination. BY
whom the child was thrown into the
canal, or how il came into the position
where it was found remains a mystery
and perhaps will SO continue. The
body of the "sinless one' uas buried
outside of the church yard, but to-day
some good Samaritans" removed il
within the enclosure.
There are other items of W hich notice
must be deferred till next week. The
want offurtherlnformation on some mat
tiers and the want OF time in connection
renders this letter short, but in rnv mex
your readers in general and the .Najo,
in particular, will be attended to by
Faithfully yours. AcHATEs.

Wan Drowned-Ihe Lumber Trade.
RowLANpsvrLLE, Al pr. 7, '53.


RowLANDsvILLE, Apr. T, '53.
DEARs SlR:--While four men were
engaged getting raft off the dam at the
head of the Md. Canal, the boat which
they were in filled and one of their
number was drowned. while the other
three narrowly escaped. But for the
assistance rendered by persons on shore
the whole number would have met a
watcry grave. They were all co!oIed
persons.
The river continues in good rafting
order and the Lumber is rapidly descend
ing. We believe heavy supply is an
ticipated. The past winter being mild,
afforded an excellent opportunity to
prepare lumber for the present season.
While we suppose it was untavorable tor
supplying logs for the susuing year, we
have heard nothing said as regards prices
but suppose owners will be willing to
sell at lair rates. Yours. p.
