TUE ALABAMA PAPERS ON TIE HARPER,s
FERRY AFFAIR

Below we copy the resolutions of the Ala
bama Legislature, touching the IIarper's Fer.
ry affair.
l. Be it enacted by the Senate and House
of Representatives of the State Of Alabama.
in General Assembly convened, That the
recent attempt made by the wicked and de-
luded fanatics who endeavorcd to excite the
slaves of Virginia and other States to insur-
recton and rebellion, is matter for profound
regret, and merits the execration of all
right minded person of every section of the
Union.
2. ReSolocd, That such exhibitions of
lawless violence, which must always, sooner
or later, recoil upon the heads of the wicked
perpetrators thereof, are the natural results
of that misguided sympathy and miscallcd
philanthropy TOO common in the uon>slave-
holding States, and which, if not speedily
suppressed, will result in the total aberra
ton of friendly feeling between the two sec
tions, and final disruption of the govern
ment.
8. Resol0ed, That the spirit which prompts
to such diabolical attempts to destroy the
peace, prosperity, and even the life of the
STAKEHOLDER, is greatly fostered by the egis,
lotive enactments in some of the States Of
this confederacy providing substantially for
the persistent rebellion of the slaves who
have escaped within their borders, by deny
ing to the owner the right to reclaim them
under the constitution and laws of the Fed
cral Government, as also, by other acts of
unfriendlv legislation and in view of this
fact, and of present exigences, the State of
Alabama does most socmnly protest ag inst
such enactments, and as a co-oqual member
with the other States of the confederacy, she
has the right to demand and does demand,
the repeal Of the same as alike repugnant to
the Constitution of the United States and
yiolative Of that comfy which should obtain
between confederated sovercignties.
4. Be 1t further resolucd by the authority
aforesaid, That the prompt action of the
President Of the United States, and the con-
duct of His Excellency Henry A. Wise,
Governor Of the State Of Virginia, in the
matter of supprcssing the fragrant outrage
enacted at Harper's Ferry and in bringing
the actors and conspirators engaged therein
to eondign punishment, meets the hearty
approval of this General Assembly.

Some little stir has been created in this
county by the report that number Of
Sharp's rifles had been found secreted in
the woods. Taken in connection with the
anonymous letter received by Gov. Pettus
from this county, Informing him that a
negro insurrection was contemplated about
Christmas, this report has caused some
little uneasiness. Wedeem it best to notice
this matter at once, in order to allay any
undue excitement. The report is founded
on anonymous letters, which should be re-
ceived with caution AS to the finding Of
the arms, we do not believe word of it,
and will not believe it until we see some Of

1t came, it came, your 'Jessamine flower"
Its richest perfumes to impart;
And cherished long viii be the hour,
1t lay like incense onmy heart.
1t came to tell Of hopes so sweet
Its beauty all was won from thee;
And oil with love twas all replete
Iprized it so-'twas culled for me.
What tho blight takes beauty's place,
Or crumbled be its petals fair
Nv heart is sure welcome vase
Its ashes long may slumber there.
True dearest Rose, ''fond hopes may fade
Like dreams be fled" with morning smile !;
Methinks our VOWS, SO fondly made,
win spring to cheer our hearts the while.
Then Danish from thy soul the thought
That Loves bright star shall ever pale;
Or, that the bliss our hopes had wrought,
Was tickle as the signing gale.
For what's the heart, when Hope has fed,
WIN al HSl BlluSu luhVlSS lOot
'Tis but wdste, DER which has sped
Doubts storms and lightnings, fury -toss'd.
The monarch oak may sweep the plain,
Bow'dby the tempestin its might;
But when the storm has passed, again
Itrustles in the morning light
But once the woodman's axe has found,
By oft repeated strokes, its core.
The monarch, topping, strcws the ground
Will offer US his shades no more.
Sowill the soul, by doubtings stung
Bow low beneath the cruel spell,
Till from it Hope itself is wrung,
Nor loiters there to say farewell.
Fen as yon cloud that floats above,
It's fight so rapid, once begun,
Doubts put in motion, shut out love,
Zen us the cloud obsclres the sun.
Apebblc dropp'd within the lake,
It's spreading, crcling, waves will try
To widen, till on shore they break,
Where, resting silently they die.
So d0a1t, when dropp'd within the soul,
Bears on its waves each CHERISHED hope;
Reason floats off, yields her control,
And gives despair its widest scope.
Rose, should our lots apart be cast
'Life's ills and thorns" be all for me;
And may you never feel the blast
Of cold and sad adversely. H.
