1t matters little, dearest, whether

The evor-changing seasons as they come.
Though heart is bound to heart,

And absence tinges mino with constant gloom.

When We cannot enjoy together
The sacred hour that brings to labor rest.

Till the last rays are gone,
My heart with anxious thoughts and fears op-

The tickle goddess kind or cruel prove,
Since We can never share together
Tho sorrows and the joys that follow love.
Only through thee can Fate
- Ever make me desolate, :. ...
&c Thou only canst my wayward spirit move.
GET but the truth once uttered, and tits like
star new born, that drops into its place,
And which, once circling in it's placid round,
Not all the tumult of the earth can shake.

TIE Outrage WEAwLEY,

We publish on our first page letter
from Capt. Hybcrger, the private secre-
tary of the Governor; to the Sheriff of
Weakley county, relative to the outrage in
that county, reported in our Geographic
columns yesterday morning and COM
mented upon by us editorially. With the
lights before US, this action On the part of
the Governor is eminently just and
proper. The authorities and good cisi-
zens of Weskley have an important duty
to perform. 1t is to leave no stone un-
turned to bring the offenders to justice.
Those offenders have shown themselves
totally abandoned, and wholly regardless
of the peace and welfare of the lew and
order-loying citizens of the county.
Whatever may be their complexion or
their politics, they have, committed a
heinous offense against, the peace and
dignity of the State, and have thus given
to the party in power in this Government
a pretext which will be used by them as
an all sufficient reason for their recent
stride toward despotism.
