THE GRAVE. There is a c?Trn for -those who weep, A rest for weary pilgrims found; They .softly lie, and swectlv sleep lovv in the ground. The Morm that wrecks t he wintry sky, more disturbs their sweet repose, Than summer evenings latest sigh. That shuts the rose. J !or, to by this painful head, And aching heart beneath the soil, To slumber in that dreamless bed From all my toil. For misery sought me at my birth, And cast me helpless on the wild; I perish! 0 my mother enrth, Take home thy child. On thy dear Ian, these limbs reclined, Shall gently moulder into thee; Nor leave one wretched trace behind, Resembling me. There is a calm for those who w-ep, A rest for weary pilgrims found: And while their mouldering ashes sleep Low in the ground ; The Soul, (of origin divine, God's glorious im;ige,) freed from clay, In heaven's eternal sphere shall shine. A star of day. The San is but a spark of fire, A transient meteor in the sky: The Soul! immortal as its sire Shall never die. FEMALE ATTRACTION. There shines in all pervading grace, A charm, diffused thro everv part Of perfect woman's form and face, That steals, like light, into man's heart. Her look is to his eyes a beam Of loveliness that never sets; Her voice is to his ear a dream Of melody it ne'er forgets; Alike in motion or repose, Awake or Numbering, sure to win. Her form, a vase transparent, shows' The spirit's light enshrined within. JCor charming only when she talks, Her very silence speaks and shines; Love gilds her pathway when she walks, And lights her couch when she reclines. Let her in short, do what she will, 'Tis something for which man must woo her; So powerful is that magnet still Which draws all soul and senses to her. G?Mi this liintfunpe of the wise man, there is "no new thina under the sun." Mosheim, the great Ecclesiustiwil histo rian, informs us thnt in the m.comf cen tury a sect arose that were called "temp crate, or (I rinkers of water, or renoun ces." They rejected with a sort of hor ror, all the comforts and conveniences of life, and abstained from wine with such a vigorous obstinacy, as to use nothing but water even at the celebration of the Lord's supper. They macerated their bodies by continued fasting and lived a severe life of celibacy and ubtinence. Nice People.We liko to sec nice people, that is to say, pretty nice but not to a troublesome or unprofitable de gree. Wo like to see a gentleman with a well brushed coat, but we would nut adv,se b,m to brush it so as to make i. ! i.cuure; we admire a pair of well pol ished boots, but we should not think it advisable to polish them to such a degree as to form a mirror for cats, and tW and monktes to see their faces in. We think it necessary to every man's cum tort and decency, to have a clean set of ecth; but we should account it worse than labor last, to brush them so as to take off the enamel. We like to see a mans whiskers neatly cut-that is to say, cut off, but wo should think a man poorly employed, who spent all of his time m trimming his whiskers. We ad rnire a neat setting shirt collar-not false, but we would not have a man perpetual, ly pulling up his collar to make it set well. rnon. H I -G -t0 8e0 a exceedingly nice; that w in every thing that concerns ho propriety or comfort of her house hold. In fact it seems to ua that a wo man cnti scarcely be too nice j thr mMl c of cookery, the arrangement of the table, and general cleanliness of the (.use. In personal neatness she cannot be too exact not that she should spend her ti metre-fere the glass which, indeed, is not apt to be the case with a lady who is habitually neat. ' Old Maids. I love an old maid; T do not speak of an individual, but of the species; I use the singular number, as speaking of singularity in humanity An old maid is not merely an antiquarian, she is an antiquity; not merely n record of the past, but the very past itself; she has escaped a great change, and sympathises not in the ordinary mutations of mortali ty. She inhabits a little eternity of her own. She is Miss from the beirinninff of the chapter to the end. I do not like to hear her called Mistress, as it is some limes the practice, for that looks and sounds like the resignation of despair, a voluntary extinction of hope3l do not know whether marriages are made in heaven; some people say they ore, but 1 am almost sure that old maids are. There is a something about them which is not of the earth, earthly. They are spectators of the world, nor adventurers not ramblers; perhaps guardians wTe say nothing of tattlers. They are evi dently predestinated to be what they are. They owe now not the singularity of their condition to any lack of beauty, wis dom, wit, or good temper; there is no ac counting for it but on the principle of fa tality. I have known many old mauls, and of them all, not one that has not pos sessed as many good and amiable quali ties as ninety and nine out of a hundred of my married acquaintance. Why then are they single! Heaven only knows. It is their fate! From my Place Book. If I possess cd the most valuable things in the world, and were about to will them away, the following would be the plan of distribu tion. I would wish to the world truth and friendship which an- very scarce. 1 would give to physicians skill and learning. To Clergymen zoal and disinterest ed piety. To young women common sense, large waists and natural feet. To young sprouts or dandies mmd sense, little cash, ami hard work. 1 o servants obedience and honesty. To masters humanity. To farmers punctuality and sobriety. To old maid good temper, little talk, aim suitaoie liusharnls. To school boys hard study, and po liteness to superiors. To school girls adornment of the brain, simple dress and more work. To school masters abilities to teach what they profess, and attention. To our colleges the ablest professors "mii.iui n'jr.im uj oirtn, place, or sect. To mechanic punctuality, honesty, and weak drink. To the rich humility, politeness and exercise. To the poor contentment, and good will to the rich. To politicians plain, honest, candid dealing. To judges learning and impartiality. To the charitable little parade and some benefactions. Hoclit!

A Blacksmith who had the gift of stammering to perfection, was called into Court as a witness be tween two journeymen of his in a law suit the amount in question being a bout 75 cents. The Judge, after hear ing his testimony, asked him why he had not advised them to settle, the cost be ing five limes the disputed sum. The witness replied "I t-t-t-t-old the foo-o-ols to settle. 1 s-s-s-aid the constables would t-t-t-ake their co-o-oats the law yers their sh-shirts, and by j j jjnjT, if they got into your Hon-Honor's Court, you'd sk-sk-sk-skin 'em."

THE Subscriber respectfully informs his friends and the public, that he continues to Manufacture t repair Cotton Gins, At his old Stand in Tarboro near the bridge. Having carried on the above business for several years in this place, and his work, being generally ap proved, he deems it unnecessary to give any particu lar reference. He will continue to execute his work in the most expeditious manner, and at his usual mo derate charges. JOHN WILSON. Tarborough, Jan. IS33. RJTI33.
