sid Think of None but Thee.3

'Tis sweet To think of warbling birds,
That chirp from tree TO tree,
Yet, oh tits not half SO sweet
As one dear thought of thee.
'Tis sweet to think of youthful days
When the heart was light and free,
Yet tits not full Of burning love
As one sweet thought of thee.
'Ts sweet 10 think OF friends at home,
How dear they to me,
Fain, fam would forget them all
And think OF none but thee.
IT'S sweet TO think Of natures works
And view the rolling sea,
Yet, oh snch thoughts are not so dear
As one sweet thought of thee.
Such thoughts as these sweet indeed.
But rather give 10 M,
In joy OF SORROW, grief mrth,
One cheering thought OF thee.

SWhere Shall Co.,

gentleman who has been a long wing,
of the ardent and sanguine school. lately IL
Illustrated the difficulty of his present political
position by very strong figure of speech.
The gentleman of whom we speak is an able
and popular judge in neighboring circuit.
Suspected by one of his former political as
sociates, of a strong leaning towards the
democracy. the Judge thus stated his difficulty
and the alternatives before him: "Where can
| go? A man nowadays must go to the
Democrats, or he must 90 to the black repub-
licans, or he must go to H" We suspect
that the foregoing H stands for Halifa1-
region to which certain unsound politicians
emigrated during the revolution.
We commend the difficulty and the climax
to the attention of the Patriot, in its discus
sion of the propriety of a reconstruction of
PARTIES Union & Anericdn.
We should recommend the Judge by all
means, to go to IL" rather than have
utilization with Democrats or Black Republi-
cans. The likelihood is that if either of these
parties get or continue in power a few years
longer, they will inevitably send the country
to IL" and we think the best course is
to cling to the country-save it if possible, if
not nobly share its fate.

Aggre.sions on American Vessels.

The repeated aggressions of late by British
men-of-war upon vessels Of the United States,
engaged in lawful commerce, is arousing
feelings of Indignation in every section of the
country. They ought not to be submitted to-.
Our government should hold the government
OF Great Britain to rigid accountability for
them. We are gratified to see that both
Houses of Congress have called upon the
President for information relative to these
outrages and we trust it is true that instruc-
tons have been sent by Mr.. BUCHANAN to the
Home Squadron to prevent repetition of
them. Where are the PAULDINGs and ALMYs,
who were so prompt to violate the sovereignty
Of Nicaragua, and break up the Walker ex-
petition? In that case they assumed re-
sponsibility to do a thing in which there was
no danger. Why have they not assumed au-
thority to sink, if need be, the offending Brit
ish steamer and gun boats. There would be
some show of gallantry in that; and we are
sure the country would applaud the act.

WASHINGTON, May l8.-Neither our govern.
ment nor Lord Napier have accurate informa.
ton concerning tie recent visitatiOns of Amer.
lean vessels by British cruisers. 1t is supposed
that the latter have exceeded their instruc-
tions, or that the published accounts have
been very much exaggerated. If the trans
actions are as alleged, it is not believed they
will be justified by Great Britain. Our Gov
eminent has addressed letter to Lord Napier,
and will by the next steamer forward instruc-
tons to Mr.. Dallas on the subject. The SEN
ate Committee on Foreign Relations, which
has the matter under consideration, will
further all means necessary to prevent a rep
etitiOn of such outrages. The President will
shortly send to Congress the few documents
in possession of the government, but not with
(as reported) recommendatory message, as
the facts are not sufficiently authentic to
justify such communication.

She looked at me. and all her woman's heart

1t was the first time she had ever given me
that name. But she never called me by any
other again until she ceased to love me; and

will sound sweetly to my dying day.

BOLIVAR CoUNTY.-We learn from Mr.. Bell.
the Sheriff of Bolivar county, whom we had
the pleasure to meet yesterday, that all the
breaks in the levees of that county have been
repaired. and that the plantations that were
submerged have been relieved of water-the
crops have been re-planted and the prospects
now are that those places will make as good
crops as will be made in any portion Of the
county. The levees along the whole front OF
the county have stood the pressure of the last
rise without a solitary break, and the citizens
of Bolivar have no fear of any further trou-
bic. They consider their levees equal to any
emergency Vicksburg So,alron, 18Th.
