AisccIfaiwHi FOR TIIH FREE TKKSN. LOVE. Ohl thou, the sweetest bnlmy flower Thine emblem doth us cheer; Two hearts entwined within thy bovver Are to each other doubly dear. How swift the hours fly o'er their heads, When blest to know they're loved; Together linked with loving ties, That never can be moved. And oh! may lovers still be blest. With love for love receiving; And loving with the purest hearts. Which never can deceive one. And may the blessings that's in store, Repay each faithful heart; Where two fond hearts are far more dear Than e'er words can impart. Hut ah! where only one doth love, His moments dolh like ngps run; He feels the smart of Cupid's dart He lingers for the sweet return. But no! his love she can't return, Her heart is on another placed; And her affections ne'er can change Till she is lock'd in death's embrace. Then oh! cruel Cupid heal the wound, Thoj hath made with thy dart; And qjench this glowing living fire, Thou'st kindled in m)' heart. FORGET NOT ME. When thy lovely form is kneeling, Forget not me; When at eve thy prayer is stealing, Forget not me; When thine eye is fondly beaming, And the burning tears are streaming, When thy soul of heaven is dreaming, Forget not me. When the light of day is fading, Forget not me; And the shades of night are speeding, Forget not me; When the world is deeply sleeping. Anil the gentle streams are waking, When soft dreams on thee are creeping, Forget not me. Suicide. Mr. Daniel Dnvis, of Putney, Vt. committed suicide on the night of the 17th tilt. The manner of committing the deed is, one would think, altogether the must horrid self torture that could be in flicted. He escaped from his house some time in the night, procured a hammer, went to his barn, ascended a ladder to the high beams, and in the first nlaco en- deavored to dis out one of his eyes with a penknifr. But not succeeding, he struck the blade of the knife to the hilt several times, into one of his thighs, in order, as is supposed, to cut the large ar tery there situated. But failing, he lean ed over the beam, as appearances show, with his head downward, and with the claws of the hammer aforesaid, he beat his head until he smashed the skull com pletely into the size of the palm of one's hand; hooking out with the claws of the hammer pieces of the skull and some part of the brain. And what is quite aston ishing, oficr nil this, ho attempted to de scend the ladder, as prints of a bloody hand were seen thereon; but his strength probably failed; and it is supposed ho fell to the floor, as his ribs were broken. lie was found the next morning by his fami ly, apparently lifeless. But moving him, in some measure, restored animation; and he, it is said, made the following exclam ation: "My God! my God! why hast thou forsaken me!" I0 lingered until Friday, perfectly rational, when he expired. He manifested much sorrow for what he had donesaid he was tcmptailnnd in an evil hour he yielded he could not help doing it. He had been partially derang ed for several months previous to Ins committing the horrid deed. Brattkborir lnq. An Exchange. A Monsieur, Intel v from Europe commenced in the suburbs of this city, the manufacture of Bologna sausages, and other articles of like savo ry import, and which business he carried on upon an extensive scale. Another V renchman, who was but recently impor ted, being anxious to sec the beauties of ih'H rapidly growing metropolis, look a promenade in the boulevards of the city, and after having viewed and admired the stately palaces of Lafayette Place and St. Marks, was returning homeward when his olfactory nerves were assailed by the delightful steam of Bologna sau sages, which wore borne on the southern breeze, in the line in which he was pro gressing; following the direction of the grateful odour, he attained tho manufac tory of Monsieur , and having entered therein, regaled himself with a savory meal of the Bologna. fc?o far, so good but in a short lime an intimacy grew up between the parties which resulted in the stranger and his wife taking up their quar ters with the sausage maker, and now comes the horrible sequel; tho Sausage man borrowed of his friend the small sum of $600, and not content with obtaining his friend's money, he contrived to wheedle himself into the aom graces of his wife, and eloped with her, leaving the stranger his (the sausage maker's) wife and four children in exchange. The stranger stated that " ho did not care one tarn about the loss of his wife, but the removal of the deposites had ruined him." iV. Y. Chron. Fatal Occurrence. The Lexington Observer, of the 22d instant, says : "We learn by it gentleman, that on Monday last, Mr. John 11. Scott, of Jessamine county, was shot through the head with a pistol, anil expired in a few hours af terwards. Tho circumstances have not been fully related to us, but it appears a rencounter had taken place, or was about to tuke place between two individuals, January, and Reese, and that the deceas ed interfered to put a stop to it, when he was unintentionally shot by Reese, who perhaps intended to shoot his antagonist, January. The deceased was a highly re spectable citizen." Illinois. This state has a fund of $2, 000, 0U0 which is to be exclusively appli ed to the purpose of public education. This sum is now bearing interest: and the difficulty now is in the adoption of a system best calculated to diffuse useful knowledge among every class of the commuity. Horrid Murder. A singular and tra gic occurrence took place on the morn ing of the 20th ult. at Brownsville, Pa., which resulted in the death of a Mr. Ow ens. A traveller called at the door of a hotd kept by the son of the deceased, on the evening or the 19th went to bed, and slept until between three and four o'clock the next morning when he arose and attacked the elder Mr. Owens, who was about gettiog up. After having struck him with a poker, he drew a knife, stabbed him three times in the back, once in the side and on the shoulder, cut a ve ry deep gash in the face, and then cut his throat from ear to car, the knife penetra ting so deep as to cut the windpipe in two. The old man immediately fell and expired. He next attacked Vincent, made a pass at his throat, but missed it, the knife entering his ear, and cut his face from the ear to the upper lip. He then ran at the daughter of Owens, struck her with the knife, but did little injury. The murderer then fled to the river near by plunged into tho water, and swam down the stream. He was pursued by two men in a skiff, but disappeared near a bridge; whether he sunk or escaped, was unknown. (TThc Patterson, N. J. Courier, states that a vast cave has been discov ered, at what is called the Notch, about half a mile from Mr. Simeon Brown's tavern near that place. The entrance to the cave is through a split of a rock, 16 feet long 2 wide. It has been explored a considerable way, but not to its full ex tent. The first area is about 300 feet square, and GO or 70 high. The bottom is red sand. 03-Thc assassin of Casper Mauser has been arrested, and committed for trial. His death is certain; and confession, lest lie perishes with scaled lips, will possess the greatest interest. Earthenware China Sf Glass. THOMAS J. BARROW & CO. Importers, 'do IVatcr-st. ni:w VOKK.
