Such We believe to be the substance of the views
eSp.esssd by the British government on this sub
ject, ano, though We are not in possession Of the

reasonable proposal.
This being the state Of the case, Greytown must

nuriiy. the local authorities Of which were perfect.

argument IN America to say that the population vas

are every day springing into power and wealth
houses or fugi.ives. The first condition Of their
power and wealth is the establishment OF free

overwhelmed with sense of gratitude for
the goodness of his heart to make any reply;
but the big tear which rolled down his bronze
cheek told the sincerity of grateful emo
tions, and he left TO join his nation in the
distant plans Of sandusky. ..5-....
He Of en- told US that was a happy day
in his life, and the more he thought and
reasoned about the course he pursued themole
he was convinced that he had acted right.
Not long after his return to his nation he
became interested in Inc missionary labors
among his people, and The wonderful s;o-
ry of the white mans God, AS He came
to earth and suffered and died for sinners,
deeply affected his heart. Soon this bold,
intrepid chief frenounced his Indian raligio
and forms OF worship, and embraced chris
tianity. He was soundly and happily CON
verted to God, and became burning and
shining light in the midst Of dark and
perverse nation. = His whole life
was uublamable, and his character as a
Christian ireproachable; ard we never knew
a Christian in any nation, or among any
people, more innocent, guileless, and hap
py than Rhon- n-ness. Rooted and ground,
ed in love, he was steadfast in his profes
sion, and laborUd hard to elevate and i'm
prove his nation. His powerful influence
as a chief was brought to bear upon The
heartless trader, who would come among
the Indians with his FIRE water, and rot
them Of their brains and furs. The Ind
ans have been cruelty treated, and it is higl
time the Government should interpose more
et1ectually its authority in their behalf
How much we owe them as nation none
can tell but it is high time that some move
was made to repay the debt. We were
deeply and intensely thrilled at the last an
niYersary of the Parent Society, which was
held in this city, by the speech Of Bishop
James, who has charge Of the Indian mis-
sions. II was so true, so appropriate, and
so fearless that we would, had we space,
hand il down to posterity as the testimony
of the church in behalf Of our native red
! brethren H" ...# .a.

Oh! give ms home in the country wide,
And a seat by the farmers wood freside,
Where the FIRE burns bright,
On sfIOsy night, .....
Where the jest, md the song, and laugh are fee,
Oh! the farmers home is the home for me-
Oh! give me home in the country wide,
When the earth comes out as blushing bride,
With her buds aud flowers,
In the bright spring hours,
Her bridal song ringing from fresh-leaved trees,
And melody floats on the perfumsd breeze.
In summer, seat in the shady nook,
And closely by the side OF cooling brook,
Where the violet grows,
Or the pale swamp rose,
Painting and sick meath the suns scorching beam
Dips her petals in the cooling stream.
OH! give me home in the country wide,
In the golden days of the farmers pride,
When the barns are filled
From the fields he's titled, rts
And he feels that his yearly task is done,
Smiling at winter, he beckons him on.

A SINGULAR GATHERING or BEES. With
in the last week several citizens Of Howard
Bottom have called to tell us of "a strange
gathering of bees on sacherry tree, on the
farm belonging to Mr.. Noah Smith. living
about two and half or three miles from
the ferry. About thirty swarms have gath
cred on and about the tree, mostly coming
from the east but some fromall directions.
The drought--and consequent lack Of the
ususal supply of food---has, probably, made
them leave their hives, but it would be diff
fcult to determine why SO many swarns
keeping distinct after they arrive, should fl
upon the same locality, Strange astit IS
this conyocation OF Bees is net withou
precedent, for similar incident took place
in or about Nashville, some years since. =
