Arain, I quit mv native hill, To seek thy loved retreat, I o wander by thy healing rUlt Or share thy rural seatf Oft, has my heart with rapture burned, To think when I should meet Again, to social converse turned, The fiiends 1 longed to greet. Gathered around thy cheerful snrin.r, By health or beauty led, Ti.oe, to wasting lii0 would cling, And these, would seek to wed. Again I hail thy healthful source V ith fund renewed delight, To brace again my youthful force, And buoy my spirits light. And hero again, I hope to meet The lady of my love, W hoso winning looks and smiles so sweet, Enchant thy shady grove. Oh! may she kindly condescend, To grant ihe Poet's prayer; And may the spring new health extend, To all that seek it there. Shocco Springs, .lane 2.3th, 1839i REPLY OF THE PRESIDENT TO THE NEW YORK COMMITTEE, (ientlemcn: lam deeply and gratefully affected by this cordial reception on the part of my democratic fellow citizens of the city and county of New York. Long, very long the recipient of their favor a:'id thoroughly impressed with a conviction of their unvarying patriotism, I can never be insensible lo their jrcod opinion. It is, therefore, with the liveliest satisfaction that 1 iearn from you that my ofjicial conduct is President of the United States has met the approbation of those in whose behalf you have addressed nie. I estimate that approval the more highly from a belief that they have not overrated either the difficul ties of my position, or the importance of the subjects upon which it has been my du ty to act. Your observations upon an important question in regard to our domestic policy that of an independent treasury, shew a vc- ty mature and just consideration ol the subject in all its bearings: tested by the principle which has been opposed to it lhatof giving a temporary use of the pub- lir. monev. and a consentient control over i it. tj nrivatc corporations irresponsible to the people it may well be regarded as a j thank you for the highly gratifying manner question involving the nature, and tosomeji" which you have been pleased to wel-;()5) extent, the existence of republican iuslitu-1 come my return to my native Slate, after tions, as well as a consideration ot the main purpose for which our government was cs-; tablished; whether for the safety of the ma- j ny or the aggrandizement of the' few vhcther or not to secure the gie.itest good i .bo rnrv.tr si number, in ourview theonlv i LWIH-,-" --- . , - - j States, the solution ol a question embracing such considerations (- .nnt remain lone: in doubt.

On the contrary, we cannot be deceived in believing that the period is rapidly approaching when those efforts will be discontinued w nen personal considerations will unavoidably he merged in the general current of public sentiment) and when the common interest in this respect will be placed on its oniy true and solid foundation, by the adoption of the measures referred to with the appro bat iotvof the people. The views w hich you have taken of par ticular points in our foreign relations, which recently presented a very unfavora ble aspect, arc conceived in the same just and enlightened Spirit. The long contested auction between Great Britain and our selves in relation to the North eastern boundary, there is reason to hope, is in a fair way for a speedy and amicable settle ment, and the troubles on the Canadian Ber ber, have, I am persuaded, passed their most dangerous crisis.

The danger of a hostile collision arising from this source I having as 1 hope, passed away, the asperi lies ol the moment in a great degree hav ing been allayed, and an opportunity for cool reflection afforded, we may, I am sure, count with confidence upon a vigilant sup port by our citizens, of those great princi ples of international iusticc. the niainte- nance of which is alike indispensable to the ; preservation ol jfycial order and the pence of the world. In doing so it does not fol- low that we arc, either to surrender the right of opinion, to suppress a solicitude for the spread of free government, or to i withhold our best w ishes for the success of all who are in good faith laboring for their establishment.

The way it was pre pared was as follows: the leaves were in ihe first place cut into small strips, then rolled up and put away in the shade lo dry, and after remaining sonic five or six days, they were placed in ihe sun for a lew hours. If the Morus will make good Tea, o-ood-bye to the silk fever, which at the present time is raging good-bye to our China trade, and an independent fortune to our Morus Multieaulis planters, for their wild calculations will be more than realized. We hope if any further discov eries are made to this new branch, they will be communicated to us, and if they should succeed, those who make their for tune will recollect who gave them the first idea.

A thousand Trees were sold in Caroline County, Md. on Monday last, at 42 cents per Tree. A lot of 213 Morns Multieaulis Trees was lately sold in Ch ra w, S. C. for one dollar each to be delivered in November. Fhey arc from cuttings planted last Spring, and now average from three to four feet n height. They were produced from four Trees purchased fifteen months ago for one dollar. The grower still retains these'four Trees, which will probably yield three or lour hundred buds each next winter. In reference lo this subject, Mr. Mnrris, of the -Silk Farmer," published in Phila delphia, says : F he sale of the Multieaulis Trees has been very active during the present week. Purchasers are ready to take any quantity at 25 to 35 cents. On the 9th and 10th inst. the Editor sold 150,000 'Frees at 20 cents each, half C;.sh, and the balance satis factorily secured at three and four months from delivery. These 'Frees are grown by us near Camden, and promise to be ve ry line. They are pnrl of a lot containing about 200,000, the balance of which ore held at 40 cents." There will be a large number of Trees for sale in this City and vicinity, and deal ers would do well to turn their attention this way. Hal. Reg.

Dis appointment in love is supposed to have prompted him to the deed. Cure for a Snake bite. An occurrence happened one day last week a few miles from this place that ought to be generally known. John Pressnall, Jr. a farmer on Little River, in this count)-, was severely bitten bv a pilot snake in his harvest field. Af ter striking the snake with his scythe and cutting it in two, he made his way to his house as speedily as possible, and se.nt oil to a near neighbor for some brandy, hav ing heard that was good for a snake bite; and there was no physician nearer than Ashboro'. Not knowing what to do, and being in great pain, the sufferer casually laid hold of a bottle of camphor about bilf full (camnhorated spirits probably hrandv, ) and placini; the mouth of ihebot lie to "the wound, (the ancle, we believe,) he felt partial relief instantly. All present thought they could plainly see the poison ous fluid escaping from the wound into ihe bottle. By continuing this process an hour Vol XV Xo. 32. or two, he became entirely relieved, and went back to his woik again without fur ther inconvenience. The above facts were rcL.ted to iws by Mr. Michael Luther, a neighbor of Mr. Pressnall, and a man of undoubted veracity. Southern Cil. A New Circular. We find in the pa pers, a circular dated New York, July 5 and signed by a number of gentlemen from various Southern States, who casually met in that city. Among the signers are John Hranch, of North Carolina, and Gen. J. Hamilton, and Mr. MeDuffic of S.Carolina. It is addressed to the Colton Planters, Merchants, Factor.-, and Presidents and Directors of the Banks in the Southern States," and its object is to devise soma united mode of action, by those interested to prevent those flunctuations in the price of cotton so common of late years. With this view, it proposes a Convention of de legates from the cotton growing States, to be holden at Macon, in Georgia, on the fourth Thursday of October next, for fur ther consideration of the subject. The cir cular suggests, that, instead of our cotton, being as heretofore shipped to England, and made liable to be operated upon by all the caprices of the British money market, and British speculators, a permanent sys tem should be established in this country, to commence with the next crop, by which hipments would be made under the auspi ces of the Banks of the Southern States, thereby enabling growers and factors to realize, at once, and also enabling them to hold on to their shipments, in Liverpool aid Havre, for remunerating prices. Wilmington Chron. Murder of John Ridge and his Fath er. The deadly feud which has so long ex isted bet ween the two Cherokee chiefs. Ridge and loss, has at last terminated in the murder of the former. This occurred near F'ort Gibson, Arkansas. John Ross, it is said, has in consequence been compel led to take up his quarters at Fort Gibson for personal security. A Mr. Wright and four children also have been murdered in the same country. Subsequent accounts state that the father of John Ridge has also been killed, and that Elias Boudinot, an accomplished, edu cated native Cherokee, and ten or twelve others of the Ridge party were also killed in thisweec', instituted by the rival chief, Ross. The N. Y. Star says: All these principals, we believe, were liberally edu cated! So much for civilization on abori gines! A postscript to the Ozark Standard says: We have just learned by a gentleman direct from Fayettcville, Arkansas, that the Ridge and Ross parties are increasing, and that already each party number from two to three thousand warriors. From Jamaica. By the John W. Ca cr, at New York, we have files of King ston, Jamaica, papers to the 27th June in clusive. They contain but little of inter est, however, beyond a repetition of the exasperated state of feeling that exists be tween the present Governor, Sir Lionel Smith, and his supporters, and the plan ters of the Island. By a recent statement it appears thattho island contains 35,000 white inhabitants, 100,000 free colored, and 311,000 newly emancipated apprentices. There are 135, 000, w hite and black included, who can vote, and the emancipated are acquiring freeholds; giving a decided contradiction to the statement in the House of Commons, of there being but 5000 whiles on the Isl and. The annexed we find in the New York Star: The Jamaica Standard gives alarming accounts of secret meetings of free negroes in Westmoreland, for ihe purpose of consi dering the propriety of adopting the despe rate course of fighting for their houses and groundsX The same paper says, that the whiles will have to resort to self-defence, as the Government have neglected to provide arms and ammunition to the towns. In reviewing matters in Jamaica, we should not be at all surprised to hear of a general massacre of the whites through out the island worse than that of San Do mingo. It is very clear that the planters are desperate, seeing themselves plundered and impoverished, and that they would meet death with firmness, and as a relief to their sufferings. From Mexico. The N. 0. Bulletin states that Gen. Bravo had been elected President of the Mexican Republic, having beaten Santa Ana, on ihe authority of an r rn i si ii . t arrival irom rviaiamoras. ine rsuiieun says: The Essex's manifest j shown to us by Capt. Cottrell, bears an endorsement to this effect "On the 7th inst. an expr courier arrived herefiom Mexico, staling I that Santa Ana was driven from the Prcsi-! dent's chair and General Bravo elected to fill the vacancy." Gen. Bravo does not possess a tittle of Santa Ana's talent, and the story is very unlikely. Yet strange things have happen cd. It is barely possible. Georgiar
