A CASE OF PININe TO DEATH.-A few
months ago, gentleman residing in the
interior of the state, returned from Cali
fornia, bringing with him prattling Indi-
an girl, a sweet, interesting creature as ev-
er proved a "well spring of pleasure" in a
household. 1t was rumored that the moth
err Of the child was an Indian woman and
the father white man. How that may
be we know not; such at least was the
supposition. The gentleman, for some
reason did not like to have her remain in
bis family, and brought her to this city,
and placed her in the Orphan Asylum,
and promised to see her often. For few
days the life surrounding her seemed to
furnish sufficient entertainment, but it
was soon apparent that something was
lacking to satisfy her mind entirely-a
void which could only be filed by the
presence of some one whom she had learn
to call "papa." She became listless and
melancholy, and the sports Of children fail
ed to please or interest. Visitors to the
Asylum petted the little "Pocahontas," as
she was called, but their attentions scarce
ly ever rallied her spirits. Constantly up
on her tongue was the name of "papa." =
She grew weary and tired, and gradually
faded, like flower of her native mountains
in Autumn. There was no apparent dis
ease, but a preceptable wasting away of
the natural energies. The gentleman
who had left her at the Asylum bad never
called to see his little charge, and although
she was nourished and cared for with all
the tenderness possible, she slowly droop-
ed, until a few days since, when she died
with the fast fleeing breath still muir
muring the name of "papa,' as she had
frequently done in her dreams.-[Cinci

From the Augusta Dispatch,
For the Young Men.

For the benefit of those who fail to
discern the motive of the caption of
this piece, will merely state, it was
written especially for young girls, and
| thought this the surest method to
catch their eyes, and exclude those of
the gents, for you all know that any
thing written Tor the girls is read first
and most eagerly by the otherseX, and
vice OerS0.
Now, girls, what's the use in max
ling such an awful fuss because man
has deceived you! lIavn't all celebra-
ted divincs told you, that mans heart
I is dcccitlul above all tuingsF' And,
hasn't the prince Of modern poets said,
MANS love is of mans lie, a thing
n part" And havn't you read that
were man but constant, he were per-
lcct| &c. And now, can't you be.
lievc what everybody, ancient ana
modern, Jew and Gentle, Christian
and heather, men and women, heroes
statesmen, sages, divines, poets, pm,
osophcrs and a host of others, ten
you! Ii really is strange! Then ne
has proved false, has hcl What more
could you expect? am sure should
have been disappointed if ne hadn't!
Do use as much as a teaspoontul OF
common sense. Be kind and sensible
and not get so many romantic notions
into your head, and then, il your true
love does tell you just before you get
to the altar, that he won't marry YOU
do you suppose I'd rave and tear my
hair, or sorrow, or go into Mysteries,
or do any other such marvellous things!
No. indeed! not |. But I'll tell you
what would do-Pd jump up and
down for joy, to think had found him
out before the slipping noose got round
my neck. Hearts were not made to
break, and iIyou can keep them from
being jammed and bruised, well and
good. But few can even do that long,
and when it comes in contact with
such hard substance as decelttul
mans heart, if the collision is very I'M
expected, it may prove dangerous, but
bind it tightly with the icy chains
Of Indifference, and my word for it, it
will not prove fatal. If | was only
young again, wouldn't | show you!-
Do you suppose would trust a man
that had deceived another, if | knew
it, as some of you do! If he has bro
ken one engagement, he may two, and
think with a certain old maid, that
"you should never believe q man be.
fore marriage, nor trust him after
wards. Suppose he should tell me
he loved me better than any one else
on The face Of the earth, TO you think
I'd believe him? Don't he tell every
girl the same thing! and isn't ones
lips as sweet to him as anothcr's!--
Then what does a man know about
love, till he gets good wife to tcac(
him? Their hearts were not made like
a Womans.

TaE EDIToR.-The Richmond Mail
throws off the following capital illustra.
ZION:
They have a steamboat in the western
waters by the name OF "The Editor" -
This is the very best name ever given to
a steamboat. We are surprised that it
has never been thought Of before. The
Editor is working engine, whose fires
arc going day and night. Now he sails
against the tide, now with it, going along
at dashing rate, until suddenly he comes
up against some hidden snag, which en-.
tirely shivers his timbers to pieces
Whenever he moves he puts the water in
agitation, and leaves a wake Of troubled
waters behind him. He serves every one
but hmsef, Carries passengers in any
quantity, and goes off puf-puF. ing
down the stream OF life. Often his DOW.
'Ts are overtasked and the boiler bursts,
but fortunately it kills no one but himself.
