MADISON, INDIANA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 18 19.

Learn from thence vour fate u-morrow, Dead, perhaps laid in the tomb. See all nature fading, dying, Silent all things seem to mourn; Life from vegetation flying Calls to mind the mould'rinc: urn. Oft' grey autumn's tempest rising, Makes the lofty forests nod; Scenes or nature, how surprising. Read in nature, nature's God. See our sovereign sole creator, Lives eternal in the skies, While we mortals vicld to nature, Bloom a while, then fade and die. Nations die by dread belona, Thro' enraged tyranic Kings; Just like plants in pale pomoua, Fall to rise in tuture springs. Mourutul scenes wlien vegetation, Dies by rrost, or worms devour ; Daubiy mournful wlcn a nation, Fails by neighboring nation's povv'r. De-th ana war my mind opptesacs, Autumn snows uic my decay Calls to unnd my past distresses, Warns me or my dying viay. Auiumn makes me iUCianchoiiy, Strikes dcjewtioii thro :ny suui; Whilst I ii.ourn my former tony. Wave of sorrow o'er me 101I. Lo! i iiear the air resounding, With expiring insect's cries; All! their moans to me arc u oundin r EniDieuib ot own demise; Ilohovv winds aooui me roarNoisv waters round mc rise; White I su, my rate deploring, Fears tat streaming from my eyes. What to me arc autumn's treasures, Since 1 know no earthly joy? Long I've lost aii youthful pleasures, Time must youth and health destroy, Pleasure once 1 fondly courted, Shared each bliss that youth bestows; But to see how then 1 sported, Now embitters all my woes. Age and sorrow since have blasted, Every youthful pleasing dream; Quivering age with youth contrasted, O! how short our glowing beam! As the annual fiosts aic crop-

Former friends how oft' Eve sought them, Just to cheer my drooping mind; But the're gone like leaves in autumn, Drir'n before the dreary f ind. When a few more years I've wasted, When a few more springs are o'er; When a few more griefs Eve tasted, I must fall to rise no more! Fast my sun of life's declining, Soon 'twill set in endless night; But my hopes are past repining, Rest in future life and light. Cease this fearing, trembling, sighing, Death will break the sullen gloom; Soon nv spirit fluttering, flvMust be borne bevond the tomb. Vs4 it . Awvi . r. .-( Uiv west inform us, that, contrary to ever y po-siole expectation or calculation, the middle section ot the Cinal will be completed this year indeed, it is sad that the water has already seen let in tor several miles, and found to answer all the pai poses anticipated. Wc have ocen one zmonrr the manv millions who have been deceived, atter mature deliberation, as io the time required to complete the work; and there is no instance on record w here any thin like 80 miles of canal have been completed within three years; and although that section is level the whole distance, still it is an incredible eilort ot labor, and is highly honorable to the industry or the commissioners, knd the zeai ot the people generally. There is, at this moment, a very pressing call, throughout the union, tor roads and canals, which will do mos e to improve the times, and benefit the interests of agriculture, than any other project. It is ot no consequence tor the farmer to oe blest rriih plentiful crops, when he has no means ot conveying them to market without a great loss and hiicon hand, his produce can yield him nothing, without he sells at a nominal price and receives payment in the ragged paper or some ragged couutry bank. Suow him a cheap and commodious road to a maritime city, and he not only

'53 sells his produce for a good price, but can obtain specie or unquestionable paper in return and in a fe' years these internal improvements will facilitate intercourse with the most re mote quarters of the union.

It is v,cll known thai its immense elevation and the almost boundless prospect which fills the eye from its summit, have induced many to climb its heighiS and enjoy nature in her subiimlitv manvalso through report, a;,d a tea' In! view ot the Mouniuii.i themst Ives, have permitted every w ish to sicken 'and every exertion to be discouraged. Till within a tew months, the effort to attain Meant IVaJjingto nmt have been great and laborious. To strike directly into woods; wet, tangled, and twitted, to a decree almost hnyenetranlo to mount ever windfall which blockaded every way to find this toil increase as you advance and to meet all these obstructions in a deep accent, would it should seem, deier any nc from the Ubor, who was less 'baa an enthusiast, or who posse. -cd less than an iton constitutio: but these diiiicultics arc v -vr wholly removed. In June iait,. an excellent path was cut t orn the road, direcly thiough tha woods, for the extent of two miles, to the point above vegetation The road strikes off to the? right hand, about thirty rods le yond the notch and where :ormerly it was impossible to aicend without extreme fatigue, and a. certianty of rending the tirmest garments, we can now advance with comparatively trifling exertion, and not the least danger but wc may return as whole as we went At the distance ot one mile and a. half from the Ntch, thair is arji excellent encampment, where a person may not tuffer for any convenience, except it be thro his owu inattention before he lefc the world bel nv him From the Camp we ascend half a mile, and emerge from the woods The treci here arc of a dwarfish j stun-, ted growth 50011 disappear'
