PART I. .
I'm adrift on life's ocean, and wildly I sweep,
Aimless and helmless, its fathomless deep.
The wild winds assail me, it threateningly storms,
The clo.ids roll around me in hideous forms;
I drift to a lee-shore! I strike! I am aground!
The mad waters 'whelm me I drown ! oh, I drown !
Mercy, oh, mercy ! oh. 1-ord, set me free.
And take me, oh, take me, to Heaven and Thee.
I wander life's desert, lone, deso'ate, sad, ( .
Faint, reeling, and weary I'm mad! oh, I'm mad!
No glad waters greet me. no streams flowing free,
I perish ' I perish ! Oh God ! set me free.
Ah ! hopeless I pray Theo, 'tis idle and vain,
I perish ! I perish ! Rain rain give me rain,
Let the stream of deliverance flow gently to me.
And drift me, oh ! drift me to Heaven and Thee.
'Mid thewranglingsof men and their conflicts so fierce,
Half mad nnd despairing, my lips spit a curse,
Instead of imploring a Refuse, and Peace,
From Life's maddening battle, lor Hope and Release,
I bear on defiantly, proud, reckless, uiiblanc-hed, -'
At the dangers that hem me the curses launched
At Earth and at Heaven, Lord ! mercy for me.
Receive me! receive me! to Heaven and Thee.
past ll.
But the storm bowls no longer, the desert is gone,
The battle's fierce strife no more hurries me on,
. The tempests no more lh the ocean's calm breast.
And the clouds float in beauty far ti. the West,
I more throngh L'fe's bowers full of bliss and of lovr.
Looking fondly to Earth; and with transport above,
. And an angel soft whispers, " The Lord sets thee free,
To come to me ! come to me ! dwell here with me !"
I thank Thee, oh Lord ! that my raving career
Was checked by the hand of Omnipotence, here.
That struck from its jarred cqulibnum the mind
Whose balance my madness and folly combined
Had periled fore'er in my earthly career.
While night's thick'ning darkness encompassed me here,
And my sad soul is ransomed, imprisoned and free,
I am coming, oh, Lord! I bow gently to Thee,
Joy ! joy! Oh ! anguish and sorrow no more- -Shall
lead me, its victim, on Life's Crumbling shore,
The winds waft me gently. I perish no more,
I thirst not, Ihe war of Life's struggle is o'er,
Hope beckons me on, with its sweet whispering tale,
To walk through, all hopefully. Life's p easant vale.
And I come to Thee. Lord ! unprisnned and free,
And I bless Thee! oh! bless Tnee! for mercy to me.
ScrppERKONG Wise. Jas. J. Alston, Esq , of Til
ton county, presented to us a specimen of Scupper
nong Wine, pressed by himself from his own vine
yard, so that we may communicate to the public the
result of his experiment. The vine is two years old,
and containcs nothing but the pure juice of the grape
and refined sugar. It has very much the-flavor of
good Madeira, and would sell from four to five dot
lars a gallon in the market. Mr. Alston informs us
this year thirty gallons from the fruit of one vine,
We consider -the experiment of growing the Scup
pernong in this latitude as entirely successful, and
we think it certain that the very best wines may be
made from it. Mr. Alston's wine is equal to any
made from the same variety in north Caro.ina.
is rich, fruity, and bss a most delicious flavor.

The House of Representatives consists of 234
members 1 18 members constituting a majority. It
will be seen from the above table that the Democrats
have a clear majority of twenty two over the com
bined vote-of the Black Repnblicans and Know-No-things.
This majority will be increased to twenty-'
five at an early period of the session by the admission
of the three Democratic members from the new State
of Minnesota. It may be added as a most significant
fact that six ol the seven Territories of the United
States will be represented in the next Congress by
Democratic delegates. ..... : ... . ,

IN OFFERING TO THE PUBLIC MY MAGAZINE, I
claim for the Editorial Chair no superiority over that
department of other like Periodicals; bufl do claim for the
talent of North-Carolina, and the South generally, that will
be brought to its support. Southern patronage. And I also,
as a Southern man, and the Editor of a Southern Magazine,
claim at tbe ban Is of "the Southern country, and especially
of Nortb-Caaolinu, that aid and support that will here, at
home, establish, upon a firm basis, a fountain of Literature
and exclusively a Hume Literary Magazine. -
Many are the Magazines now piiblishfid in the Northern
States that are flooding tbe whole Southern e-on try. There
is not (it is probable.) a county in any Southern State that
is not visited by Harper.'' "Graham," "Peterson,", for
" Godey" while' here, in North-Carolina and the South,
.where genius unsurpassed and unequaled reigns, the litera
ry talent that is brought into exercise is dedicated to the
support of Northern Magazines; while Southern-enterprise
taste and talent bow in humble submission to such suicidal
policy of Southern contributors. ' . .
Why, I ask, cannot tee North-Carolina, tbe South send
greeting to our Southern clime, a Magazine accept ablefor the
many qualities that adorn the pages of the most ehaate, ele
gant and polite Periodicals ? It is true that the South has her
Magazines ; but few in number are they, and unknown,
compared to the publications of tbe North, which every
mail brings to oiir homes, filled with the result of hired la
bor, and teeming with unpardonable sedition.
Then ' I anneal to North-Carolina and ,nthr flantkorn
States to aid me io my enterprise, and in promoting lite
rary lasie amungst woae upon wnom, as a Bouthera man,
I hsre claims. . - - ' '.
My Magazine will be of the usual sire: and nothing will
be admitted to its png but such' articles as will meet the
approval of the mwt fastidious. : ItsbaJIbe ; 1 .il' iy.
