AMERICAN POLITY.  'COLUSI3Ifis ta/umbla's-shores are wild and wide, Columbia's hills are high I And rsi :Oy planted sideby aide, Her forests meet the eye. But narrow -trust those abuses be mad., And low Columbia's hills; And low her stictent rarest, laid, ' Ere freedom leaves her Cletus :' Fortis the land, where, rude and wild, hhe played her gambols when a child. And deep and wide her streams that low Impetuous to the tide.: .And thick and green the laurels grow On every *river's side. But shonld a transatlantic host Pollute her waters fair, We'll meet theta on the rocky coast, And gather laurels there: Vor oh I Columbia's sons ate brave, AO free as Ocean's wildest wave.

H. efitutie, who met his death by tic:.identally•stabbing himself, on Friday last.—Miss I. Morgan, a relative of the deceased, deposed that Lis mother beiv dangerously ill, she attended her ab..tft a ter night. On ThursAay night, about twelve o'clock, she• family retired to rest; witness lay on a iota, and Ise lay WI a mattress in the same room with the old lady, who wanted something about -three o'clock, and both gm up to make a fire; deceased toot die knife now produced, a small desert Inife, to spl.ce apiece of wood, the end of which he laid on his breast, and had the edge of the knife towards him ; witness heard an exclaraation—is lam stabbed."
