poetical ionium.

BY S. WOODWORTH. The pv belles of fashion may boast of excelling In waltz or cotillion--at whist or quadrille; And seeking admiration by vauntingly telling Of drawing, and painting, and musical skill ; But sh e me the fiirone in country or city, Whose home & its duties arc dear to her heart. Who chtci fully warbles some rustical ditty. While plying the needle with exquisite art. The bright little needle the swift flying needle, The needle directed by beauty and art. If love have a potent, a tmgical token, A talisman ever resistless and true A charm that is never evaded or broken, A witchery certain the heart to subdue 'Tis this and his armory never has furnished So keen and unerring, or polished a dart ; Let beauty direct it, so pointed and burnished. And oh ! it is certain of touching the heart. He wise then, ye maidens, nor seek admiration By dressing for conquest, or flirting with all; You never, whate'er be your fortune or station, , Appear half so lovely at rout or at ball, As daily convened at a "work-covered table. Each cheerfully active and playing her t rt, Ikguiling the task with a song or a f iMe, And pi) ing the needle with exquisite art. From the S furnish. MINGUILLO.

To i he south of the equator, aod be twecn parrallcls of latitude, near y cor responding with those of the United ft;'cs on the north, are situate two islands, known by the name ol New Zea ln'rl, inhabited by a race differing in cha rac ri irom all other people that have fal vii under human observation. Nature, as t' for a display of her mysterious powct . '-as united in this race the most oppo ei'e extremes. And so nicely has she baU QH xd them as to create a" exact cquilv: t)'iu!i in the mental scale of the contcmplator. 1 he New Zalander is a canmbal, and feasts with eagerness and Ot 'iM upon human victims; of a icro ciy n ihounded. the most deadly in his rcvmgc, and insatiable in bis thirst lor the blood of hi enemies; yet be is stir passed by no one in bis attachment to liiends. hi sensibility to their suftctings, and t.tcons'Vablc grief at their death. Of ihem, ii has been said "as his progress in refinement b ars no proportion to his natural poweis of body and mind, so no proper balance being maintained, the contending elements of his nature, the propensities, passions, and affections shoot forth into the wildest extremes;" an J thus, while hi action ol one day till our bosoms with honor, and shock us vilh their enormous cruelty, perhaps those o the iu't will awake every ten dcr letting within us, and make so direct an appeal to our sensibility as to completely overpower us. Some years ago an English exploring shii remained ahout a month at one of these islands, noil during a time a young Sidlot b t ,irji ,g tncrcio, fell in love with n Nw alandiM girl bv the name of G 'Wjktuunro Gowannahee was about fou:tcen years of age, and although the cl.rjght r of a savage and a cannibal, was yet capable, as the event will show, of the deepest affection and the most strong tittachment. The intimacy grew daily otr oger, and at length the young sailor ?riird all his spare time to her society. He lurnished her with decorations lor hcr person, and that he might be more attractive in her eyes, he submitted to be v.toncd according to the custom of her country. His endeavors were not in ain Gowannahee experienced a puMnn equil to his; and this child ol nature, untaught and unrestrained by the rules which toe civilized have adopted, gave full sope to her emotion. 1 he ... . ij'.n, iuomu incy unuersienui mu v.ov.n other'? lanu.ite. yet thev vvhnprrcd in accents, which thty found no difficulty i.i comprehending; or as ihe poet says, " Kxprrs I uid not exptcsscd .uifce all cIrvs and hours of true happui

nes8 so cud those of this affectionate

couple pass away, and with rapid wing came the time for the ship's departure. Gowannahee, when a separation was hinted, became frantic with distress; she threw her arms around her lover's neck, and employed all her efforts to retain, as it were, her own life. The sailor resolved to desert the ship and remain behind. The alluring arts of Gowannahee caused him to forget the home of his nativity and to prefer the wild .and uncivilized New Zealand to all the endearing charms which that home presented He clothed himself in the costume of the natives, and contrived to remove his effects from the ship to the shore, but, "1 he cours cf true love never did run smooth ; It is as momentary as a sound. Swift as a shadow", short as any dream ; Hi icf as the lightning in the cnllied night. That, in a spleen unfolds both heaven and earth, And ere a man hath power to say Behold The jaws of darkness do devour it up: So quick bright things come to confusion." Just before the ship's departure, the roll was called to ascertain it all weie on board. The lover ol Gowannahee was missing, and the captain gave orders to a file of men to search him out and bring him to the ship The officers and crew protested against it, being disposed to let such an instance of true love have its reward, and not to disturb the enamoured sailor in his dreams of future felicity. The captain saw danger in such a precedent, and was inflexible. The men were obliged to perform the oidcr, and at last discovered the hiding place of Gowannahee and her lover When they took him away she was ovet whelmed with anguish, and such wetethe expressions of grief exhibited at the parting scene upon the beach, that the stoutest heart could not witness it unmoved ; but the separation was not ol longdutation ; and although Gowan t.ahee and her lover were to meet but once more upon eatth, yet that meeting was one preparatory to a never ending le licity. As the ship left the land the dis tressed Gowannahee was seen running j fiauttc from cliff to cuff, and her heart rending shucks wereheatcl long alei they had lost sight of her The sailoi remain d passive; but though he kept silent his mind seemed agitated with the most severe suffeung. It was thought best to leave him to himself, until his nature should get the better of his ifflic lion. His stratagem succeeded, and as an opportunity presented, he plunged into the ocean, trusting Providence lor a bility once more to rejoin tiis companion His absence was not noticed until it was too late to think of his recovery ; and a murmur spread quickly through the whole ship of the cruelty ol the captain which had driven a fellow being to an act ot suicide; t hat became the general opinion, lor it was thought impossible that the lover could ever have a hop of regaining the land ; but love exists not without hope, though it mihthave been m this case a hope allied to despair The sailor swam lor his life, and as he surmounted billow after billow, catching by intervals some gleam of the distant ocacon wnicn convmccu mm mere was land in sight ; he still had hope, though his sinking heait and wearied limbs as sutcel him he should never reach it Soon however was the sailor thrown life less upon the shore, and as fate would hnvc it. into the very arms of Gowanna bee. Nothing could exceed the delight w hich Gowannahee experienced in em bracing the corpse ot herlovci ; but it soon gave way to redoubled grief when she ascertained that the body was lifeless. She raxed and bcsccched the Gods of her country to put an end to hep lile Her reqrest was granted, and she died by the side of her faithful lover. As the natives beheld the two bodies embraced in death, they could not restrain the most violent expressions of grief. It was a sight that moved their untutored hearts, and those sons of the forest, uncivilized, untaught in tho refined system of mora lity, lelt themselves outdone in all their acts of cruelty. H. F. E. A tANKKE Jl'DOF. KV KENTUCKY LAWYER. Tew persons in this country aie aware of the difference that exists betwet-n our manners and customs, and those of the people ol the western states Their electiom. their coutts of justice, present scenes that ould strike us with astonishment and alarm. If lhe jurors arc not, as has becnassrrted run down with dogs and guns, color is given to charges like this, by the repeated successful dc fiances of law yei s and judges that occur, by the want of dignity and elf respect evinced by the judges themsclv-os, and by the squabbles and brawls that take place between members of the liar. Theic is to be found occasionally there, r, a judge of decision and firm nnwevcr, a ju ness, to compel decorum even among the most turbulent spit its, or at least t punish summaiitv all violations ot law and propriety The following circum stances, which occurred in Kentucky, were related to us by a gentleman who I V 1& ir ev ttni'ta r f ( K id hnln tAxenI . ".' Several years since, judge R native of Connecticut, was holding a court at Danville. A case ol considerable impoitance enuic on. and a Mr. U ,thcrj lavtcrof considerate cm-

Iner.cc, and afterward a member of con- Plcaiure, with its flattering banners, ingress, who resided in a distant part ofjvites them on darkness screens them

the state, was present to give it his per sonal supervision. In the course ot Mr D's argument ho let fall some profane language, for which he was promptly checked and reprimanded by the judge. Mr D. accustomed to unrestrained li. cense of tongue, retorted with great asperity, and much harshness of language. Mr. cleik, said the judge cooly, put down twenty dollars fine to Mr. D. By G , said Mr. D I'll never pay a cent of it under heaven, and I'll swear as much as I please Put down another fine of twenty dol lars, Mr. Clerk. "I'll see the devil have your whole ge neration, reiomed Mr. D ''befote mv pockets stall be picked by a cursed Yankee interloper " 'Another twenty dollar fine, Mr. Clerk " "Y- n may put on as many fines as you please. Mr Judge but by G theie'ka difference beiwetn imposing and collect mg, I reckon. "Twenty dollars more, Mr Clerk " "Ha, ha!" laughed Mr. I) with some bitterness, "you are triflincr with me, I see, sir; but I can tell you, I understand no such joking ; and by G sir, you will do well to make an end of it " "Mr. Clerk." said the judge wiih great composure, "add twenty dollars more to the fine, and hand the account to the sheriff Mr D the money must be paid immediately, or I shall commit you to prison " I he violence of the lawyer compelled the judge to add another fine ; and be tore night the obstieprous barrister was swearing with all his might to the bare walU of the county jail. i he session ot the court wastermiua ud, and the lawyer seeing no prospect ol escaping through the inetcy of the judge, a!cr a fortnigt's residence in pri son, paid his fine ot a hunch td and twenty dollars, and was then released. He now breathed nothing but ven geance "Til teach the Yankee scoun dret," said he "that a member ot the Kentucky bar is not to be treated in this manner with impunity." The judge held his next court at Frankfort, and thither Mr I) repaired to take revenge for the personal indignity he nad suffered Judge R is as r markable for resolute fearlessness, as for talents, firmness and in'cgin, and alter having provided himself with delcnsive weapons he entered upon the discharge of his duties with most philosophical in difference On passing from his hotel to the court house, the judge noticed that a man of great size, and evidently of tremendious muscular strength, followed him so closely as to allow no one to step bet ween He observed, also that Mr D supported by three or tour fiicnds fol lowed hard upon the heels of the stran . i ger, ano on entering the court room, posted himself as near the seat ol the judge ns possible ; the stranger mean time taking care to interpose his huge body between the lawyei and ihe judge. tor two or thtcc days, nutters went on in this way; the stianger sticking like a burr to the judge, and the lawyer and assistants keeping as near as possible, but reliaining liolence At length the curiosity ot judge K to learn something of the purposes of the modern Hercules became irrepressible he invited him to his room, and inquired who he was and what object he had in view in watching his movements thus pertinaciously "Why otisce," said the stranger, c jeeting a quid of tobacco that might hate freighted a small skiff, "I'm a ring-tail roarer from Big Sandy River, I can out run, out jump, and out fight any man in Kentucky They tcUM me in Dantille, that this 'ere lawyer was coo:ing down to give ou a licken Now I had'nt no thing agin that, only he wa'nt a going to give you lair play so l come here to see you out, and if you'll only say the word, we can flog him and his mates in the twinkling of a quart pot Mr D. learned the feeling with which the champion regarded him. and with. drew without attempting to execute his threats of vengeance upon the judge. -V. Palladium. From the Saturday Evening Post. ON NIGHT. I lincrcryct wim natur., for the ni-lit Hath been to me a more tatnili.ir We Than that of o.an, and in her starry shade Of dim and solitary loveliness, I learned the language cf another world. Hyhon. Night is the throne of contemplation and of thought its magic influence draws fin,n the deep recesses of the mind tht flabh of genius, that has lit the world with knowledge and with wis dom ; beneath its calm and starry dome the imagination marches on without the slightest obstacle to mar its flight, rath cring m its progression, from the rich 1 shadcs of Zh a!)d solitude, that which ! Partakt'S even ot divinity itself. Our thoughts engender in its mystic gloom and pensive meditation seems to feed upon nocturnal silence At its approach, the noise and bustle of the world arc hushed, and nature sinks to slumber on its peaceful lap. The mild zephyrs, as they gently float along, waft to the mind an invigorating charm, which leaves to every thought a tongue to give it utterance. Y-t alas ! with many night is the rene of revelry and plcasuic; the brilliant action of those moral thought is sacrificed at dissipation's shrine-

from the wotld's dim eye, but never

from the watchful eye of God MILTON. An inviolable fidelity, and good humor and complacency of temper, outlive the charmsof a fine face, and make the dc cays of it invisible.

That the present system of practice, vhich treat diseases of every form with metallic minerals, the lancet, or the knife, is dangerous or inefficient the lamentable facts which cicry day present too fully illustrate. Nor is this truth mere clearly exhibited, than the fart that vegetable substances alone, arc void of danger, and poweriullv efficient when administered: a preference to the success of our New-York infirmary, and the success of ignorant botanical physicians, pr es this fact. The college and infirmary will be cpene the first week in December, where s'udtnt5 from all parts may enter and complete thei'" medical education, and where persons labo ring under every species of uisease shall receive prompt unci faithful attention.
