MIXED BLooD-James Evans, the boy
who was released from Jail some weeks since, on a
ha6eas corpus by Judge Meredith, where he had
been committed for want of register was brought
sociating with negroes contrary to the laws of the
State. His Honor, not feeling disposed to run
counter to the decision of higher tribunal thought
proper to place the accused on footing with
free white citizen, and should therefore examine
him as such. Having learned that his only compa
ny was negroes-that he lived and moved alone in
their society, and the laws of the State forbdding
the association ofthese two classes it was his duty,
magistrate, to see that law enforced. In order,
however, that the prisoner might have every means
of defence, the case was continued until Wednes-
day morning at 10 o'clock, and he admitted to bail
for his appearance in the cum of $50.

CHEERFULNESS.
BY wILD-BIRD.

VII at though misfortune comes
With clouds and signs and tears;
Can it o'ercast our cheerful sky
And shade these joyous years?
o no there is holier bliss
Than that which storms can chill;
And hearts that live in friendships bonds
Will love more fondly still.
What matters it, Enough this gay world
Looks down in bitter scorn,
DON'T sigh~-don't weep for brighter hopes
Than e'er on earth are born,
May linger sweetly in thy soul
And cheer thy fainting heart -
Mourn not and the darkest clouds
VIII silently depart.
Then purify affections fount,
That ne'er the streams may dry
Then all is peace and joy within,
Though storms may rend the sky.
What matters it, though wind and hail
Are moaning ''dreary weather."
II hearts with sympathy are warm
And closely linked together?
What matters il, though to the grave
The bodies we consign,
If ace may seek Ct nobler home
Where stars immortal shine?
Be lnnd-be cheerful, though thy path
Lies through the wilderness:
Then will thy tears in anguish shed
Dissolve in smiles of bliss.

THE Angels TEAR.
BY a. L. {.

BY a. L. {.
1t was calm, clear summers night,
The vault of heaven sbone brilliantly,
The moon and stars, in holy light,
Together smiled in harmony
And meath their pure, enhancing glow,
A small and silyery gushing tide
Rolled on with music in its flow
To greet the ocean foaming wide.
BY the swift waters, soft and clear,
There bloom'd rose in youthful grace,
Too sweet and fair for this dark sphere,
1t had beauteous resting place
Its opening leaves of rosy dyes
Were raised TO Heaven as if in prayer,
And sure the Ruler of the skies
Smiled on that face Of beauty rare.
Myriads Of spirits throHged the skies
To guard the earNh through night,
Until the golden sun should rise
With mornings rosy light;
And as they viewed the silent earth,
While weary nature slept,
They thought Of Eden's sinless bloom,
And o'er its slumbers wept..
Over the sweet and blusing rose
n guardian angel bent his head,
And viewing it's resplendant glow,
In low and thrilling whispers said,
bright, sinless beauty, thou must dle,'
And on it's cheek there fell tear;
"Thou soon must perish, and oh, why
Does man not Learn lesson here ?
"Why does he seek such fading wealth
And glittering pomp of fame,
And in this fair but dying world
Seek that false egown--A NAME?
No lasting coronet he gains
Beneath this starlit sky,
And, all unthankful to his God,
Forgets that he must die.o
Oh, mortals view that form of grace,
Those lambert wings of fire;
Let the mild beauty of that face
Your souls with love inspire.
Another tear fell on the rose:
Away the angel flew.
The night-bird drank the pearly drop,
And, warbhng, called it dew.
