To confide in a false sijrh;

Sink from earth away and die.
Once I fondly deem'd thee all,

On this lonely heart to call,

And those eyes once fondly beam'd,
On my heart a lovely light,
I thought it love I only dream'd
Mis'ry woke me to the blight.
Did that young heart never feel,
One pulsation truly heat?
Was that specious ready zeal,
All a fiction, all deceit
Say, h w could these eyes of fire,
lieu m a lervid flame on me,
And that heart feel no desire,
And no truth of soul in thee?
Ah, 1 once could trace a tear,
On that seraph cheek of thine;
Uut, alas! there's nought to cheer,
iNow this lonely heart of mine.
But farewell, the hours are grie,
Which were dear to ne and thee;
And they speed so swiftly on,
LiuL to leave their ioi?ery.
Yes, farewell, a long farewell,
W e must never meet again;
But this lieart can never tell,
How sore the grief, how deep the pain
"Fare thee well," I now resign,
All the hope I have in thee,
And this heart, shall ne'er repine,
Bright or dark its destiny.

O'er a few bright happy years;
But it shall beat on and live.

Enfield, Oct. 19M, 1S41
Mr.
Webb: iir: In my travels in
Edgecombe. I fell in with a gentleman who I
had in his possession a Manuscript copy of
r. ' r-
a speech delivered by a candidate lor the
legislature in that county in 1824.
The gentleman referred to was kind
enough to entrust me with this Literary
i t lie, for a short time; and as I think its
publication, would introduce a decided im
provement in the political literature of
times, 1 have enclosed it to you, with the
request that it may appear in the next num
ber of the Advocate.
1 am sir, with great respect,
T. L. B. G.
A speech delivered by a new candidate
of Edgecombe county on the Sth day of
June lb4 in the town of T. at a general
muster, who on that day declared himself,
and after swiging the joyful contents of
two or three bumpers of the good old ap
ple jck, ascended the piazza bench of
the tavern and harangued the people
in the following outlandish stuff, (to
wit!)
Fellow citizens did you ever peruse a
Almanac. Fellow citizens the first and
the most important subject which 1 shall
conversate upon is the election subject.
I have got upon this bench Fellow citi
izens with the 'disqualified object of contu
sing into your minds and coinblustificating
you all into an idea that I am standing up
here as a candidate for your suffrages to
represent you the next general assembly
in the house of commons at Roll'. The
question is, will you debet me or will you
not.
If you will you may all depend upon
it there shant be nothing wanting on my
tallents to capitulate satisfactory all your in
teiest placed in such a circumstance and
consequence. Fellow citizens, you all
know ine excessively well, you aim ignor-
ant of my flucntial talents and circum
stance, you all know excessively well that
I am a very fat liable hard working man,
and has seen a heap of the ups and downs
of the world and know right smart about
human nature and politics too, and to con
vince you Fellow citizens that 1 do appre
hend something about politics, I will re
connotc several numbers that is factor i
ously Mipernoxious to the capitulation and
Utitude of our degenerating State and
citizens. Fellow citizens the first number
which I shall conversale upon is the Bank
prosinority; the banking constitution Fel
low citizens is a very excessive capilula
i igevil to the rising luminary of our noc
turnal velicity, because the banks has issu
ed a heap of paper money on you all,
Fellow citizens and it has appreciated
mightily and this appreciation of the bank
money Fellow citizens is the physical
cause of the scarcity of money and I assure
you is the moral cause of the scarcity of
money and assure is the moral cause of
thes ocular hard times, and Fellow citizens
should it circumstantiate with your infer
nal feelings and revolving; wishes to delect
me to the house ol commons, I assure you
will do all that my talents convocates to
disnolily the rising dumfrigated prosinor
ity of the bank convolution and render the
whole a coilatual mass of ruined nonenti
ties and have no other species of money in
circulation but the good old specie itself
(that is the silver,) in the second number
Fellow citizens which 1 shall conversale
upon is the prosinority of infernal im
provemens and internal navigation which
I think would be excessively adducive to
he luture displosion of our commerce
with foreign countries, therefore I think it
would be extremely dispedient for the house
of commons next general assembly to op
proximate three or four hundied dollars
for the circumnavigation of Tar River,
Fishing Creek and Toisnot, which 1 think
would greatly viciliate the passage of our
llai bottom boats, from Washington, New
hern a no" the other foreign countries and
consequently immaterially diminish the
extorting prices of merchandising prossi
norilies, and render larmers more able to
purchase the proximatinsr commodities
which you are obliged to have under any
voxcillating circumstance whatever, such
as salt, iron, sugar, coffee, &c.
The third number Fellow citizens which
1 shall conversate upon is the magistrate
prosinority. I think Fellow citizens that
the squires of the peace is placed in a very
excessive and quitical consequence because
they have no pay for their services. I
think Fellow citizens that the house of
commons ought to approximate 50 cents
for every judgment the squires give to the
constables which would be a very solici-
toU9 circumstance to conduce the squires
to
be more intentive to the wanantings to
. ;mI,rmen,s. The fourth number Fel-
will be a civil evolution, that is a civil war
among the norrard convocalities and us,
which will lead to a very serious circum
stance for when we get to war with our own
infernal circumlocution the british will
... r
be politic enough to take the advantage oi
our quitical consequence and rush in upon
us with all the ferocity, of their contamina
ting force of big ships, cannon muskets
and british and make us object slaves,
again like they did before the rising prox
imity of the old revolutionary war there
fore Fellow citizens should it ratify with
your external sensibilities to send me to
the house of commons next general assem
bly I will use all my energetic influence &
talents to discompublicatethe dessimolition
of the tariff prosinority and have it dis
molified and repealed in order to prevent
the serious circumstan of another evolution-
ary war.
The fifth number Fellow cilizens which
1 shall conversate upon is the Presidential
prosinority. Fellow cilizens I think Mr.
Crawford ought to be the next President,
because he is a very circumstantiated man
in politics and deplomaticable locutions, he
has been in public consequences for a great
many years and has performed the diame
trical task of a statesman with great impo
tence and circumstantial evidences, there
fore I tnink Mr. Crawford is better disqual
ified for your next President than any oth
er man in the United States of America or
No. Carolina either and I think it the duty
of all my citizens to vote for him for his de
tection will disquivocally redound more to
the complicated interest of you all than any
man of my political acquaintance, there
fore should it invalidate with your vocal
principles and infernal duplicity to send
me to the house of commons next general
assembly, 1 vrill do all that my luminous
capacity prognosticates to delect Mr. Craw
ford and exterminate him on the next pres
idential chair. The sixth number Fellow
citizens which 1 shall conyersate upon is
the canal prosinority Fellow citizens I am
excessively much in favor of. and I think
the house of commons has been discom
phatically blind in not ceinghe indubita
ble consequence and benefit that would
viciously df geiv r ite from cuting canals
all over conetoe which would collaterally
render the culti va.ivati on of the unfertili
zed des3rt into a delicious inhabitable con
tinent, which circumstance would in a vao
degree demolish all the diabolieated invi
cissitudes attending the complexified in
conveniences of the people who dishabit ii
and render comple paradise of demoniacal
angels who would lmdiy change the voli
cious convocality of their velicitous & con
vulsificated happiness for heaven ilsif,
these things Fellow citizens I see as p'ain
as I now see the nocturnal rays of ihe sun
shine and Fellow citizens should it discom
port with your eonvulsified wishes and
superanuated desires to delect me to the
house of commons the nex' general assem
bly I will show you in what I can discom
publicate the infernal prosinorities of con
etoe and render it a collateral volution of
fertilized land. Having convcrsated Fel
low cilizens on all the most impotent num
bers and prosinoritios I will now conclude
by simplifying to you all that I wish your
luture beatiitude to be as luminating as the
evolving sun, but I am afraid you will
misapply your physical judgements and de
lect some other person to the house of
commons who will know nothing about
the conviniality of politics and lead your
rights and privileges astray like a lost
sheep. 1 have no mote politics to corn er
-"ate upon at this time Fellow cilizens but
will tell you a groat deal more on some
other circumstance when we meet again
O! Fellow citizens there is one very impo
tent prossinority I like to have forgot tha'
is the Sheriff prossinority. 1 think Fel
low citizens the house of commons onht
to abstract and literavate the sheriff vocali
ty in such a consequence as to curtailate
the venal durability of one shetiff in office
that another may come in under the like
circumstance and consequence, this circum
located measure Fellow citizens would pre
vent the awful consequence and conveniali
ty of lucrated eruption in the sheriff pros
sinority and deparchment, therefore Fel
low citizens should the reconoted fluxibil
ties of your superficial sensualities ruminate
so far as to send me to the house of com
mons the next general assembly, I will use
all the mentalities of my magnanimous tal
ents and influence to disnolify the durabil
ity of one sheriff in office and erect another
in his vocality and attitude immediately.
(JThe United States Treasury Depart
ment having found much difficulty in dis
posing of the six per cent, loan, have come
to the resolution of issuing certificates for
sums as low as $500, in order that men of

(J Money is said to be very plenty in
New York, notwithstanding that the banks
pay specie. Suspensions seem in the end
to make money scarcer than it would be if
specie payments were adhered to. for they
produce a want of confidence and check
importations of specie Irom other part, and
increase of paper brings no relief, for it
falls in value in proportion to its abun
dance, and capital is no plentier than it
was before. Pennsylvanian.

treatment he has received has aroused the
indignation of all who are at all acquainted

Another Bank Explosion. An explo
sion took place in the Morris Canal bank
ing Company, located at Jersey City, last
Kriday .
A committee of investigation discovered
that E. K. Diddle, the President, and E
Lord, the Vice President of that concern,
had loaned their friends or themselves
31SO,000 of the funds ol the bnk, to es
tablish or improve certain iron works in
Danville and Wilkesbarre besides various
other financial operations. The directors
called upon those two financiers to resign"
last week. This Mr. Diddle- wt Old not
do, hu s'ormed and threatened, and called
the ij.vestioation illegal. The directors
stuck to their text and turned both the
gentlemen' out of office on Fnd y.
While these financial movements Were

furnished it for SS,000, the rent $1200

the explosion in the bank took place; He
has now sold off part of his furniture, and

New York Het uld, Oct. 13,
Trial of 12 men for Murder. Tfie
correspoudent of the Illinois Free Trader
gives an account of the trial of the persons
charged with the murder of the Driskalls,
John and W illiam, from which the Editor
of the Era has made the following extracts
One hundred and twelve men Were in
dicted for the muider, and one hundred
pleaded not guilty, and were put upon tri
al. The very fact of the great confusion
occasioned by so many names in the in
dictment, left the accused without any evi
dence to contend against. The two or
three fiisi witnesses, whose names wer
endorsed upon the indictment, (and by the
law s of this State none, except those whose
nanus are endorsed, can be called to prove
the substantitive part of the accusation, on
ly knew some of the preparatory steps ta
ken, which led to the supposed offence.
'I he case was submitted to the jury, who,
without leaving their seats, rendered a ver
dict of net guilty. This verdict was given
partially from a want of evidence, and
from what the jury considered the absolute
necessity of the case. The writer says the
laws could not protect the community,
where the banditti committed their many
enormities the occasion was too urgent to
wait for their uncertain amendment and
adaptation to the emergency individually
they could not protect themselves mob
law they repudiated they therefore re
sorted to a counter organization, ordained
new rules of evidence, and a new mode of
proceeding, such, and such only, as in
their judgement were effectual to protect
them. There may be those who are dis
posed to cavil, perhaps to condemn. The
judgments and perceptions of such would
be essentially invigorated, could they have
dwelt for a short time here, and suffered
the murder of their friends, the burning of
their dwellings, and the plunder of their
property ; and when they called on the latY
to redress these wrongs, to see those whom
they knew to be perpetrators, escape with
impunity
(jplt is stated in the Macon Messenger
that at the recent election in Georgia, at
young man of the name of Broach was shot
through the head by a Mr. Pierce, and in
stantly killed. Another man named White
who was struck over the head about the
same time, with a stick, has since died.
Supposed murder. The body of si

New Sofa Stuffing An extraordina
ry and ingenious escape was made from
the Slate Piion at Concord, N. H., a fev
days since, by one of the Convicts. He
worked in a shop as a cabinet-maker and
upholsterer, and having orders for a large
sofa, he made it with a false bottom and
stuffed it with some very light material;
In the space formed between the top and
bottom, he contrived to introduce his bod
at the time when the wagoner came tu
lake awav the piece offurniture. Hewaf
quite a small man, and his weight was not
sufficient to produce any suspicions in me

was accordingly stowed away in the baz-
g.ige wagon, and our hero made his escape.
