The Passing Cloud.

Oh cloud, so beautiful and fleet,
Passing where fierce suns burn and heat,
Der heights untrod by human feet.
Chameleon cloud, of Iris hue,
As changeful as a drop Of dew,
How many shapes in moments few
A car, a globe, a golden gloom;
How many forms thou dost assume,
A mountain, pyramid or tomb.
So many shapes beneath the sun,
So many dyes that lusing run,
And beauty still in every one.
Tinged with the hue the rainbow cast.
On snow-peaks, where their image fast
Fades down before the scowling blast.
Such golden light the young moon threw
Upon the still drops of the dew,
What time the night wind fresher blew.
Such lustre water lilies throw
Upon the brook that lies below,
Lipping their blossoms with its flow.
'Twould make brain-sick painter pine
To win hue to match with thine
To make his martyrs mantle shine.
In such n cloud the angels seek
The hermit on the granite peak,
So pale, so humble, and SO meek.
Such cloud when Jesus, long ere day,
Has caught the mountain top to pray,
A halo round him seemed to play.

ToUcuING.-Ccbb and Toombs, the very noto-
rious Georgians, have issued an address to the
people of that State which closes in the following
pathetic style:
:" The foot Of the oppressor is on the soil OF
Georgia. He comes with the lust in his eye,
poverty in his purse, and hell in his heart. He
comes rot,ber and murderer. How shall you
meet him! With a sword at the threshold =
with death for him or for yourself! But more
than this--iet every woman have torch, every
child a trebyand-let the loved homes Of our
youth be made ashes, and the fields OF our heri-
tage be made desOlate. Let blackness and ruin
mark your departing steps, if depart you must.
asd let desert more terrible than Sahara wei
come the vandals. Let every city he leveled by
the fame, and every village be lost in ashes Let
your faithful slaves share your iOrtnne and your
crust. Trust wife and children TO the sure refuge
and protection Of God -prefering even for these
loved ones the charnel house as a home than
ioathsome vassalage TO a nation already SINK
below the contempt Of the civilized world. This
may be yonr terrible choice, and determine at once
md without dissent as honor and patriotism aud
duty to God require"

MArrEEs IN ILILNoIs.-We take the following
items from an interesting letter from Chicago,
published in the New York AadePcndenh of Jan
uary 9th
Fifty.fve million bushels of grain have been
received here during the IL months just ended,
which is nineteen million more than any previous
year. A gentleman who lives in the interior of
our State told me this week that he had large
quantity of corn. and that it would cost him -four
cents per bushel to she'll it, and six cents to haul
ID to the railroad, and that at the largest price
he could there get for it (eight cents) he should
be two cents per bushel worse Off than if he
should give it all away in the cribs. In sHch
regions corn in she ear is being used for fuel, as
much cheaper than coal. Our pork packing
season is only half over, and there have been
already cut up 200 900 hogs, (whole number last
year 23l ,000) which is "a steady Increase 49,
900, ten years ago. Farther, our beef cipacking
season is rot yet over, and there have been cut
up, as YET. $4,000 beeves. Besides the above,
there have been shipped from this place dnring
the year just ended 244000 hogs and 100000
cattle Receipts of lumber for the same time do
not equal those Of 1855. The low prices that
have ruled, and the check which improvements
have received, have kept it back. Architects
inform me that there was never a time when
bai!ding could be done so cheaply as at present

Lake Indians came in town one day last week
lie represents the snow to be about hree feet in
the vicinity of the Lakes. There is, however,
but little confidence to be placed in what these
Indians say, as they have associated with white
men so long, and are SO near civilized that il is
next TO impossible tor one of them to tell the
truth. According to fellows story the snow is

The HOMESTEAD EXTENTIoN.- We clip from
the San Francisco Gail, the following views upon
the Act introduced in the Legislature to extend
the time for recording Homestcads. We agree
with the Cal, but think $4,000 too much to ex
cmpt-the present Law needs some amendment.
The trainers of the Constitution evidently in-
tended that families should always be secured
some species of homestead.
Many Of our cotcmporares and portion Of
the Legislature are opposed to extension of
the time in which 10 record Homesteads. The
law of last year extended it to the 27th of April
Of this year, and there are various reasons why
it should be extended again. The most promi-
rent, perhaps, of these reasons is that the Home
stead Act was passed in pursuance of Section I3.

Legislature to protect by law from forced sale

the whims or caprice Of the Legislature? We

THE SLAYER GoRDoN.-Preparation are being
made to hang the slave trader Nathaniel Gordon
in the TOombs, next week, the President having
refused TO commute his sentence to Imprisonment t.
This will be the first execution for this kind OF
piracy, under the law Of Congress- that has ever
taken place. Strenuous eXertons have been
made by influential citizens to save the life OF
Gordon. but all their efforts have been uBavail-
ing His leading position in society here before
his real character was known, and the fact of his
having young. very beautiful, and highly ae-
complished wife, have elected great deal Of
sympathy in his behalf. He is a remarkably
fine looking man, and had been many years
engaged in the successful prosecution of the slave
trade. Your correspondent remembers meeting
him years ago, quite frequently, at Madeira,
where Gordon passed himself off as wealthy
gentleman, and was sailing about for pleasure
and recreation in a beautiful Baltimore clipper
built yacht. This yaeht afterwards turned out
to be one Of bis slave vessels, and what was
supposed to be travelling millionaire of the
young America order, was the largest slave
dealer on the west coast Of Africa. He is well
known throughout the whole of that coast, as he
is in Brazil Cuba, and the extreme Southern
States. His ending his final career on the gal
lows, after the dashing and eXtravagant life he
has led, is a sad commentary, and fate all who
knew him twelve years ago, little dreamed OF
ever befalling hm.--4ih'S ". Y Corresponds

with the paper began with the fiji st number, and
has continued uninterrupted up to the present
time. During the six years of its existence we
have endeayored to make the JOURNAL Il readable
newspaper a jnst ana fair record os passl-
events and home matters. Especially has 1t been
our aim to make it Of interest as local news
sheet we have spared neither pains or expense
to- keep orr readers posted in all that was trans
piiiGg in the county. 70 this end we have been
aided by the contributing pens Of many our min
ing friends in different parts of the county, and
we can point with pride to our correspondents,
both for the intelligence and interest OF their
COMMUNICATIONS. Occasionally, LUXE +. WELLS
and Mrs. ANNIE X. II. FADER-two of Califor-
MAS sweetest pocts--have graced our columns
with their poesy. We think few interior papers
have weekly occupied more space to the record
of home affairs and transactions no effort has
been spayed to make this department of the
Journal reliable, interesting and serviceable as
IL means of reference for the future.
