True PHILosoPHY.-I saw a pale
mourner stand bending over the tomb,
ard his tears fell fast and often. AS he
raised his humid eyes to heaven, he
cried:
"My brotherl oh, my brother !"
A sage passed that way and said
"For whom dost thou mourn 2"
"One," said he, "whom | did not suf-
ficiently love while living; but whose
inestimable worth now feel. D."
"What wouldst thou do if he were
restored to thee?"
The mourner replied, that he would
never offend him by any unkind words,
but he would take every occasion ia
show his friendship, if he could come
back to his fond embrace.
"Then waste no time in useles grief
said the sage, "but if thou hast friends
go and cherish the living, remembering
that they will die one day also"

LIFE.
Life's valley full of trees,
Of various hue and size and form:
Some yield to every passing breeze,
And some withstand the tiercest storm:
Some blush with flowers of sweetest smell,
And some are gloomy cold and bare;
In some their loves the birdlngs tell;
In some no warblings wake the air.
These bear their fruits of rainbow hue,
hlch to ambrosia seem akin;
But poisons oft each vein Undue,
And Turk beneath the glossy skin.
Those offer fruits of humber guise,
Perhaps enchanting less the sense;
But though far less they please the eyes,
They ne'er teguile with false pretence.
Life's valley full of gems
Of endless tiffts and forms and ray:
Some flaunt in view like fruits on stems;
Some, modest, shun the eye of day.
Life's valley full of tears
Bright tears of joy and tears of grief;
Both, dew drops stray'd from heav v'nly spheres
To give to bursting hearts relief
Life's valley and it leads
Through sheen and shade to endless rest ;
And as we pass, let's scatter seeds
Of which the harvest may be blest
AMIGO.

WILLIAM JASPER.

William JAoFEh.
At the commencement of the revolu-
tion, William Jasper enlisted in the
secoud South Carolina regiment of in
fartry, commanded by Col. Moultrie.-
He distinguished himself in a particular
manner, at the attack which was made
uron Ft. Moultrie. on Sullivan's island,
on the 2sth Of June, l770. In the
hottest fire of the battle the flag of the
fort was shot away, and fell without the
fort. Jasper instantly sprang after it
upon the beach, between the ramparts
and the enemy, and binding 1t to a
sponge staff, restored it to its place, and
succeeded in regainiDg his own III safety.
Governor Rutledge, after the battle, as
a reward, took his small sword from his
side, and in the presence OF many ofI
GERS, presented it to Sergeant Jasper,
telling him to wear it in remembraI ce
of the 2Sth of June, and in remembrance
of him. He also offered Jasper lieu
tenants commission, but as he could
neither read nor write, he modestly re
fused to accept it, saying, "he was not
fit to keep officers company, being only
bred sergeant" His subsequent ac

TIE Captured Slaver--What is to
be done with the Prize-South
Carolina Opposed to Negro Inn
portation - Paraguay Expedi-
tion--Smal Receipts from Gus
toms-The Indian Difficulties
WAsHINGroN, August go

A good many practical questions arise
from the fixed fact of the capture at
last of SLAYER by a United States crui
SER, and of the safe arrival of the prize
| within the State of South Carolina
The law of the States denouDces the
death penalty to private parties that are
caught in the business of the African
slave trade-and yet the French nation
is engaged in the slave trade under the
name OF an apprenticeship. and also the
English are in the business largely with
races less sable in hue, and far more in
| teIligeut? But what is to be done with
| the prize We are bound to believe
that had the vessel been sent into, los
ton the wealthy acOroly sympathizers for
the negro there would have assured to
to the newly arrived distingues from the
Taboo country" conspicuous hospltali-
ties, and perhaps familiar adoption =
But unfortunately the vessel was sent to
the s-vereign State of South Carolina,
where the hostility to negro importation
dates from the period of the revolution !;
and where fresh infusion of the bar
barian, cannibal element would work
disorder among slaves now content, and
cheapens the products of slave labor
That State will doubtless protest against
their being turned loose there, though If
thew were to be, the laws are probably
such as to ensure their disposal as slaves
AS the free States are fast making laws
forbidding the Immigration of blacks,
thew will not receive them, and it would
be cruel indeed to send them back to
place where they will ceI tainly be eaten
as enemies, or be rcsold and subjected
agaia to the horrors of the middle pas
sage. At present these saves are to be
under the charge of the United States
! Marshal at Charleston.
The veteran Com Stewart is here
under orders of the Navy Department
to counsel in respect to the Paraguay
expedition.
The receipts at New York from Gus
toms last week we're but S463, ,000-a
figure entirely too low, considering the
season of the wear and the demands upon
the treasury. While an Indian war is
just commencing in the far-off region oi
the fftieth parallel of north latitude
the expenses of the Mormon war are
not diminished, since that it appears
that more trains are still leaving fol
Utah, though four thousand have already
gone.
The Indian bureau received nothing
by the last steamer from its agents IL
Oregon and Washington territories
There has been disposition to suppose
them to be among the Indians striving
to remove causes of hostility; but thai
charitable view is melting away under
the circumstances of vexation and an
noyance oceasioned by want of advice
