A Good Stout.— 1 The Si. Louis Pennant tells the following story, and vouches for the respectability and responsibility of its information: A few days ago an extensive cotton planter in 'Mississippi who owned about one hundred and fifty negroes, found that the cholera had suddenly broken out among them, and raged most furiously—carrying off some ten or fifteen of his slaves daily. Thu news travelled speedily among hia neighbors, and no one had the temerity to go near the "infected district," for fear of the contagion. Every day a long line of rough board coffins were carried into the fields and deposited in tho earth, white the citizens' expressed the deepest sympathy for their unfortunate neighbor. At length they were nearly all gone, and the ruined planter sold his land and started for Texas, to commence the world anew. After several days had elapsed however, several gentlemen, suspecting that all was not right, caused a number of the coffins,to be unearthed; and found tint they contained nothing. Deuce a bit of a negro was there in any of theml A fow weeks afterwards, accounts were received from Texas, stating that the unfortunate gentleman had' purchased a splendid ptaniaiion ihcro, and with .the whole of hia 150 negroes, was driving the cotton business at a great rale! The gentleman’s creditors looked blank at each other, and the neighbors laughed heartily at tho joke, ,

EXXTl’CSt.

[i-Vom the JWw Era. “We Sloop to Conquer,”

This insulting motto, which was borne so triumphantly tn the procession of the Driiish Whig convention at Baltimore, has called forth from the pen of our private correspondent, U. H., the following indignant rebuke. —Let it be read and preserved:

V SPECIE. Silver, ■ 4 a 5 prem. American Cold, 5 a 6 pieni. Sovereigns, dolls. |5 0 Doubloons, Spanish, dolls. 16 a 17 0 do. ' Patriot, 16 a 16 50. English Guineas, ‘ , 55 00 - - 4 00a 1550 Napoleons, . 00 Ten Gaildcr nieces, 00 Ten Thalers, S 00 Fredcrictd’ros, 4 00

- The Democrat’* Rebuke. “You stoop lo conquer;" cursed the thought— The lip that spoke, the hand that penn'd it. Our country never shall lo bought. Nor conquered, white tn: can defend it; As braves the storm—the mountain rock, As cleaves the cloud—the eagle's pinion, We’ll meet oppression's battle shock. And triumph o’er corruption’s minion.

Oilier years had passed away—a weary traveller was seen urging his jaded steed along the banks- , of the PoivhalUn, Ho ascended the mound and leaping from his saddle, stood beneath the great oak, described in the commencement uf this talo. His carriage, features and exterior, were American; but a tropical sun had darkened the original lustre of a fresh complexion; and the "pale cast of thought" was traced in legible lineaments along his features. The sleeping fire of his eye, a higo forehead, and compressed lips indicated the firm ness and energy of his character. Vet there-was a deep, melancholy in his appearance, a scar on his chock, ratheraddyd to, than detracted from his personal appearance, while it evinced that he had boon made acquainted with the service of the sword. Long did he muse—long did the vacant gazo of his eye indicato the Abstraction of his mind from conscious existence. Perhaps he was thinking of somo dear friend.—or of his parental fireside, In the climes he had left. Lifting bis eye at last, the lengthening shadow of the oak reminded him of the lateness of the day, and that it. was time a stranger worn seeking a covert for the night. "Can A weary Iravellerfuid a place of rest with you, for a few hours," ho enquired of an old lady sitting at the door of a cottage. Doing answered in the affirmative he alighted. Tho shades of night closed upon the cottage, long had the stranger been entertained, by the garulily of hia hostess, when ho inquired in an apparently careless manner who was the proprietor of the elegant mansion he bad passed, half a mile back.-

Cold Wateb.— We were not a little .amused yesterday at the cunning of a loafer of the first water. A crowd was collected in Pratt street, around a poor miserable wretch, who-was leaning against a pump, apparently suffering all the agonies of a dying man. Every now and then, ho would place Ins hands-convulsively upon bis stomach, and shriek out piteously ‘0! that.,cold water!’ while tho good people round endeavored by every method to soothe his pain. 'After writhing and tumbling'about for some .time, he was. brought a full gloss of raw brandy, - which he greedily swallowed—and, smacking hia* lips in testimony of.ils excellent flavor, ho Calmly walked off, exclaiming, ‘there ia.a fipVaarcdt and darn’d good measure at that,’—Baft.* Clipper.

MISCELLANY.

The first time for many a day, did tho wonted an<Toriginal Instre of the strangers eye shine forth, as he listened to this simple but affecting nairrative. What, was the cause of this; was it indignation at the heartless conduct of the uncle! or sympathy for the wronged and oppressed niece! noiu verront. "But where is the niece at present!" he asked with forced composure, "The niece!—what, Mary do you mean! Mary Gordon! Dear good lady. 1 do not know what would become of me, but for Mary Gordon! where should the dear craature be, but where she deserves to be and where does she deserve to be, but where she is, the mistress of her own mansion."

On i high mound overlooking the broad stream of the Powhattan, a mighty oak spread its storm-defying branches in the. air—the horizontal rays of tbs ammonal sun gave to its sere and faded foliage a darker hue of decay and a deeper tinge of melancholy. Slowly and sadly", along the surface of the river, floated the mourn* fulaad expiring echoes of the distant churchbell. ♦ **♦♦♦* Silonco pervaded the plain’.—The marry notes of the robin had ceased; and (he dark veil of night was drawn over the surface of nature. Beneath this tree stood a form which, despite the care with which it was profiled in an ample pelisse, could not conceal all its elegance, or bide the throbbing* of ah anxious heart..

It was not Jong, after the stranger retired to rest, before bis invocations to the god of sleep met with an appropriate answer,'and when morning was announced, by the merry carols of the feathered songsters, perched on the neighboring trees he arose from his pallet refreshed and invigorated. He was seated by the only window of the cottage, in a deep reverie, when an airyaylph-like form entered with some delicacies for the old lady’s breakfast, and having left them on the table, was retiring from the cottage, when “William Montcalm" labelled on thootranger’d portmanteau, attracted her observation—“Isbe herd is William Montcalm, here!*’ she shrieked vehemently; and as if tho thought had petrified her, she stood with uplifted hands, palo aud motionless as a statue. Her shriek awoke the stranger from his.abstraction, who recognizing a voice ho had not heard for several years, sprang from bis seat and threw his arms around the distracted and amazed girl. Long aud ardent was the embrace—overpowered by tho shock, ebo murmered, “0 my William!—I thought thou wert dead!” and sank down, insensible. * »*♦♦♦♦♦♦

The Soldier of Equality, “That young soldier of equality, whose step is so proud, and whose eye flashes such deep indignation, wars not against the legitimate influence of mental and moral superiority. Ho complains not that others have stronger minds, sounder judgments, warmer hearts, a more passionate lore of the true and beautiful, and a more commanding influence than he. Ha is not disturbed that the republic has better, greater, wiser men than he. They wrong him who accuse him of envy, and alledgo that he enlists on the aide of' equality, because he cannot bear to see any one above him. It is not so. Err he may, but ho is not without a soul—without a heart. Hie bosom burns, it may be, with as generous a love of virtue; his heart swells with as noble and a* disinterested sentiments, and he is moved by ns pure and as lofty motives as any of those who war against him. Say not that he .is envious, that he seeks only to bring down to his own level, the-wisdom and vtnue be is conscious he cannot equal. It is not so.—He stands in religious awe of the God-created, the Godpalenied nobility ofour race, and prostrates himself before tho truly great man as the out-speak-ing Symbol of tho Divinity.— Brovmion,

Yean passed down the stream of time, and added another drop to (ho ocean of eternity. In a remote chamber of a stately'and magnificent edifice, faintly glimmered a midnight lamp. The rode blasts of a wintry sky, howled with ceaseless fury along the plain. The drifting enow kept a constant pattering on the only window of this lonely chamber. On a rich sofa within, unmindful and unconscious of the lateness of the hour, reclined the fairest of the fair. But tho rude traces of keen anguish were deeply engraven on her delicate features. The aad emotions of a broken heart had jarought their imago on her beautiful countenance. Even now her tip was quivering with grief, and tears, scalding tears, drawn from the warm fountains of the heart, fast trickled down her check. Tho storm without abated; and the genius of the air has bidden tho element* be still; but the tompest of sorrow in her bosom had not yet expended alt its wrath.'
