WEsrwARp---.The tide Of western emigration 10
the States and Territories in the Pacific slope seems
to be flowing in greater volume the present season
than at any time since the California excitement
The number of emigrant teams that passed Fort
Laramie during the month of May is stated at five
thousand and Of stock, forty thousand head. This
immense emigration indicates that the rich western
territories, particularly the aurferous regions are
attracting thther class of people who will labor
industriously to develop their material resources
1t is remarked that these emig ants are apt to be
attracted to new localities but they are not OF the
trough" class of adventures, but are, as O rule,
sturdy and hard-working men, who are taking their
families along, with the design of making perma-
nent settlement. The inducements for emigration
TO the new territories are now very great to those
who have no prospect of securing a competency in
the cities and long settled localities In new re-
gion every man has fair start on the road to for
tune and If he possess the requisite thrift and ener-
gy he is sure 10 attain position of Independence

OBITUARY.

Mrs. MARY A.. wife Of Mr.. Daniel d. Allen, was
the daughter of Thos. Ramey, ESQ., formerly Sheriff
of Montgomery county, Tenn. She was born July
81, 1880; was married January 23d, 1850; pro-
fessed religion and Joined the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, at Salem, in the summer Of 1851,
and died July II, 1865.
Mrs ALLEN was distinguished from childhood
for those feminine excellencies of character which
strongly attached the hearts Of friends and acqant
ances. Meekne,s, gentleness, intelligence and ami
ability, combined with nice sense Of .propriety,
commanded, not only the love, but the esteem and
admiration Of all who knew her, As a daughter,
wife, mother friend, neighbor, mistress-she was a
model of excellence and in this regard, especially,
is her death loss greatly TO be deplored. Her
death has left q void in the society in which she
moved but far more in that sweet home of which
she was the light-the soul.
"She walked the eaily round Of household duties
With cheerful heart, and by her loving words,
And gentle deeds, made home Heaven on earth "
What can repair the loss, which her husband
and three little children have sustained in this sad
bereavement May God, who tempers His winds
TO the shorn lambs, comfort them. As a mother
the more than guardian angel Of her ehildrep,-as
fond, devoted u lie, she was reluctant--in lfes
early summer, surrounded by warm hearted friends
and loved ones, to bid adeu TO earth. Her patience
however, never gave way under her protracted and
often exerucialing suHeFings. She met death with
christian composure protesting entire resignation
to her Heavenly Fathers will The death OF an
amiable educated, refined and truly christian
woman is loss indeed TO society, for
"There is nothing, this side Heay MS gate,
That is 50 sweet as such a womans heart"

For the Ol,ronlcle
To a Coquette.
by LEwLrSerox.


Thine eye with timid fondness hath
Nine ardent hearts bright hopes depressed
Because, with seeming. truthful looks,
1t hath thine unfelt love express'd.
Love which know was never mine
II worship'd at another's shrinei
Why didst II lend expressive hues
To thus deceive my fond desires,
And kindle warmly in my soul
Such flames Of loves most ardent fires?
Was 1t to blast mine every hope
And darken youths bright HOROSCOPE
All maiden fair, there rests charge
OF clear deceit against that eye;
And hearts win prove, as mine hath Prov d,
That it doth sparkle but to liel
OH pluck Il forth let not its glow,
lmpart another CLEAN of woe.
Do not its false and hitbless tones
Again in true devotion raise
To that just God who looks within
And reads the wicked art it plays;
Art which hath caused heavier shower
Of tears, than war in all its power.
But let it bow in shameful mood,
And meekly bide the weeping fate
Of those who by their winning schemes,
on make the young heart desolate.
The PLEASURE Of thy. shame is THINE
The WOE it brought is WHOLLY mSEl
