You Rugged We.

You Rugged We.
RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED AUTHOR OF YOU KIssEr
AE.'
AS your round my neck their embraces they
dealt,
Your check touching mine, one hand on my breast,
Nesting closer and closer with I" Infinite rest"
Your head in loves raptures, my bosom was laid
As though for thy pillow my heart had been made
You Rugged me, but alas, my tongue cannot tell,
The singular feeling of loves born spell;
Thy quick beating heart, thy bright jeweled eye,
Made me feel as if there, only there could die;
Yes, there with loves living cestus entwined,
could leave this bright world and it pleasures behind
You Rugged me, thy clustering curls gently waved
Der the love captured heart that for thee had been
saved;l
chung 10 thee closer, hoped that the time
Would never approach when thy arms would untwine;
And leave me, alas, all friendless alone,
With arms TO wrap round me- no pure bosom
home.
You Rugged me, in loves sweet bewdering embrace
There came forth emotions no time elrace.
Then will you again on my bosom recline,
And with feelings love thy arms round me twineY
Will you smile through the tears Of affection them
And if were there would you-hug me AGAIN.

II WIS very superior and famous Horse is n
i located for the season OF 1858, at my = -
farm adjoining Nashville. Mares will be =
ceived from 10th Of March 10th of July $50 each
and 81 10 the Groom, due 10th July in all OF
failure they may be returned gratis next year.
HIGHLANDER bred by Thomas Taylor, of 5
c., in 10, he got by Glencoe imp. his dam Casta-
net winner at all distances, by Monarch, imp, &c,
his pedigree is fun, pure and fashionable, and like the
horse himself excites the admiration of the most crit
cal observers.
HIGHLANDEIsis rich chestnut, of excellent consti
tuition and temper, measuring 10 hands in height and
has unusual length and stoutness Of frame coupled
with SURPRISING beauty OF form and action. As great
racehorse, Highlander's reputation throughout the
Union was, for some time, hardly equalled having
beaten in the best style all of his many competitors
in South Carolina and Georgia. until about five years
old when he sold for sic .OOO ana at once went
forth 70 other formidable rivals wherever be
found.
In this extremely trying career, Highlander gained
large share of success as has ever attended any
horse, under like trav.
cling and running all distances he did whether in
good or bad health and condition.
All who have examined HIGHLANDER and his colts
freely express the opinion that breeder of supe-
rior stock, for enTy he will take rank among the
most reputable horses OF the country.

institution OF slavery, in regard 20 which the
Church has no right to NEEDLE, except in en-
forcing the duties Of masters and sery ants, AS
set forth in the Holy Scriptures; and whereas,

INTERESTING 10 THE FANCY. The New York
Evening Post Of the I'd inst furnishes the following
account of an incident highly interesting to gentle
men who travel on the muscle''
At eleven o'clock last night fight took place be-
tween Tom Hyer and an English fighting man known
as Jim Dunn, alias Stewart at the Dexter House, No
435 Broome street Hyer was sitting in the bar-room
near the window, quietly minding his own business,
when Dunn came in with party and took drinks.
He then seems to have become very unqniet. He
took seat by Hyer, and commenced conversation
with him upon sporting Matters soon fesorting to
the use of snch epithes as coward s'liar "thief
etc. Hyer made no words, when Dunn, with fierce
imprecatons seized him and hurled him to the floor
Hyer sprang to his feet and aeeosted Dunn: " What
do you mean? have been peaceabe, and do not
want any difficulty" Dunn made no reply but elneh-
ed him again. when Hyer planted several blows upon
his face and neck breaking the rufans nose knock
ing out three Of his teeth and giving bis eonnenance
frghtfnl appearance. In short, Dunn was most
severely hogged, and begged for quarter. AT this
moment the keeper OF the saloon, Ezra White, and
some others, interfered and separated the combat
ants. The uproar had gathered crowd, which Capt.
williamson and four of the detectives observing,
hastened to the spot, and promptly dispersed. As
no one would make complaint, and the principal cul.
prit had been thoroughly chastised already arrests
were made.
This Dunn has the reputation of being hard
character" and is what is termed sbnfer.n He
nearly killed policeman two years since, and had
just been discharged from State prison. whittier be
had been sentenced for that offense.

The Fair Dreamer
- s-
Where sullen rivers weep
Their waves into the deep,
She sleeps charmed sleep;
Awake her not,
Led by q single star
She came from very far,
TO seek where shadows are
Her pleasant lot.
She left the rosy morn,
She left the fields Of corn,
For twilight cold and lorn,
And water springs.
Through sleep as through viel,
She sees the sky look pale,
And hears the nightingale,
That sadly sings.
Rest, rest, a perfect rest,
Shed over brow and breast;
Her face is towards the west,
The purple land.
She cannot see the grain
Ripening on bill aud plain
She cannot see the rain
Upon her hand.
Rest, rest, for evermore
Upon a mOssy shore,
Rest, rest, that shall endure
Till time shall cease -;
Sleep that no time shall wake,
Night that no morn shall break,
Till joy shall overtake
Her perfect peace.
