With credulous folly, still I trusted one,- ■■ Whoseword seem’d so like truth, that I"forgot » Tho lessons I had learned full oft before; And I believed, bccauso ho ‘said he’d como,- That ho would come—and then, night after rifght I watched tho clouds and saw them pass away, From tire bright moon, and leavc’ tho clear, blue sky, As spotless and sereho, and beautiful, As if &o promises:were broken e’er , Beneath it Man forgets, in busy hours, What in his idle moments ho has said, Nor thinks how often woman’s happiness Hangs on ins slightest words. It is not things Of great importance which effect tho heart Most deeply—trifles often weave tho net Of misery or bliss, of human life. There’s many a deep andhidden grief that comes From sources that admit of no complaint— From things of which wo dare not, cannot speak; And yet they seem but trifles, till a chain, Link after link, is fastened on each thought, And wound around tho heart—they do their work It* secrecy and silence—but their power Is fir'more'fatal than the open shafts r > Of envy and misfortune; for they prey j_ Upon tho health and-spirits ’till the blpora Of hope is changed to fever’s hectic flush; They break the charm of youth’s first, brightest dreams,. * And thus wear out the pleasures of the world, And sap at* length, the very, springs of life. But this is woman’s fate.

O’er disappointed hopes—till slio believes j There’s less of wretchedness in the wide world | Than in her single heart the inebriate- Woman's Inconstancy. It has been said (hat.truth is sometimes more strange than fiction. The circumstan ces we are about to relate, are in point, and as there may be derived a useful lesson, we have concluded to give a brief sketch of a melancholy affair, with the circumstances of -which we'are well conversant. T W was a school-mate of ours in New York. We were also classmates in a literaryjnstitution, in the town of C , in N. Hampshire. ISciijg nearly of the same age and disposition—from the same town and neighborhood, we pf course were warm ly attached to each' other. At the age of sixteen, we separated. We were a long d (stance apart, ami of course ns iiuie elapsed, our correspondence gradually died away, and or three years passed without the least tidings from our friend and youth ful associate. When we separated young W was enjoying undisturbed health, and being possessed of unusual talent and genius, a well cultivated mind,- good moral, habits, industrious, eavnrm heart and mild temper, the brightest prospects were shadow ed forth. He was'indeed envied for his su perior intellect and accomplished scholar strip. ' ■ Seven years had passed, when we acci dentally, met our old friend arid fellow stu dent,-iiLa.southerncity.—We-were passing along, one of the streets in Mobile, in the winter'of 1837*-8, when a tolerably well dressed man,-but;eyidehtly-a victim of Ib _tempe ranee,. accostcd-us -by-namej-and- be--, fore we could recognise our unceremonious friend, he had hold of our hand, giving a death-like gripe tind''frantic with joy in meeting his “dear old friend once more.” What a change in seven short years.— The once fair and healthy. W- , now with a haggard visage, a bloated drunkard. We could hardly believe it possible for so great a change to be wrought in a person in so short .a space of time. Bnt it was so.— After recurring to old times, to our old sport and boyhood pleasures, tile fid lowing brief history of the unfortunate young man was elicited. He related as follows, as near as we can recollect. Geo.^Sanderson . after we parted, and in 'my six- Wentll year, I entered, into the employment of a respectable merchant in the town of Ct . where I,applied myscif to my busi ness with perseverance.nnd.assldmiy, inso much ad to give.my employer perfect satis faction. which he o’ftimes expressed in terms of unmeasured approbation, 1 saw'naught but a* bright prospect ofhfutufe happiness beaming before me. The corroding shaft of care had,not entered iiiy bosom—each bPjght and.fosy morn that dawned on. my existence, but added new visionsw iny dream q£fu tore bliss.—Fur nearly fourycars iny biirk float edV thus serenely on the chrystal lake of happiness, without ;a wave to disturb its quietude, or mar the placid' visions that floated around its course. I became inti .inute with a large circle of ncqu'uintance, among ‘whom was the.young anil lovely An nette AM' cause of my present unhappjr- condition. It is needless to/go ; through'with a' Uefad of; the many, e,- vents which’took place during my acquain tance with Annette.

The hour had arrived for departure to'our homes, andns.lbnde her adieu, she invited me to continue my visits, which invitation I gratefully accepted, and then set out fur my employer’s house, about two miles distant. That.evening sealed ,my fate! On' my way home, my whole thoughts were, turned to Annette; her form floated before me wpere ever I went; her voice sounded'in'my. ear I like the-soft melody of iJjlblian strains, even during die hours-of dreamy sleep, lit short,! 1 could think of nothing but her, and I em braced the earliest opportunity of renewing iny.visit to her father’s. I was kindly re ceived by herself and relatives, and 1 became a constant .visitor to" the family, and a suitor for the hand of ‘Annette. My-story is sb'dn told! I yiftercd' - my hand to Annette in marriage—it was accepted. I was happy beyond even imagination—l was in a situa tion which promised independence ir\a short time, for my employer, on.hearing of my in tentions, promised to receive me as a part ner in his establishment in another year.” “In order to make preparations for this important change in life, pur marriage day was Settled at six months from the time An notta promised io be mine. We both being young, all parties agreed to this arrange ment; and now commences my tale of woe. A merchant’s son, who was heir, to ah im mense estate, became the suitor of my An . nette. l oft- times questioned licr/as to the . propriety of receiving his'visits; but she only' 1 taunted' me wil.U Jculousv, apd, I said-no, iimrej-batrested securfe'/vftlwlitlefity of-lier iWioiU I could hot mistrust, tfll it was forever too, lath. . lire the six, months before spo ken of bad elapsed, Annette became the bridCpf another. Gracious heavens! what madness rucked my brain! I fled fruin the circle of my friends!—l left (he home of my employer! —[ grasped the maddening bowl of intoxication!—l drained its very dregs! —I had no more recollection of whatbad ; passed fur eight and furty hours. I awoke from my swoon—l found myself I knew not where—l tried to collect my-thoughts—l rememb'ered (oh! sad recollection!) my An ; nette —her perfidy—my rival; and again I fled .to the deadly poison to drown my bosom’s sorrow. "From that time I have been fimoNKARp. ‘I have reveled' in the'-midnight carousal to strive to porobt —but alas! her vision yet haunts me—her words yet ring upon my ear —my brain.is racked With torture—and alas! I am a miserable wretch, 1 know my doom, but 1 Cannot avert it. . The viper has fastened upon me—l groan beneath its fangs. Death will soon relieve me of all my woes; but alas! lam unprepared. - A few months —perhaps, wceks—will see mein thedomb. Oh! Annette! Annette! would to heaven 1 had never seen thee. Thou hast stolen from me the bright dreams of hope which were the joy of my youth—thou hast robbed mcof my peace. 5 ' .Although we thought our young friend a gregt foul for murdering himself because a woman had been false, still we could pity him, and us.cd our utmost endeavors to per suadejiim lliat, the course lie,was faking was not only foolish but morally wrong." With some little trouble we succeeded in finding a vacancy in a. store, and after much persua sion induced our friend to' accept the'situa tion, and, with a promise that.he would ab stain from the intoxicating'cup and attend strictly to business, we left him; t We heard no more of our friend-until, a day or two since, we found the following in a Tuscaloosa, Alabama paper: • - “Died, of delirium tremens,-T— — W aged about 26 years, formerly of New York.” ' Thus-ended the-days of-poor T- , the victinr. of a faithless woman and an example of the folly of intemperance. Two very important lessbnsmay be learn .ed-from:.tlie. above-narration:-—First,-never make lung engagements—second, if you are rejected, and you think you can’t live ‘with out her,’ don’t attempt to drown sorrow by drinkingalcuhuh but taken doseof laudanum at once, of .tie a rope round your neck, with a stone attached thereto, and jump into Chouteau’s pond, or some mud-hole., Du any thing but drink yourself to death. — Recollect this, boys ami girls. .Antoinette Tomozewski, was born in 1815; in the district of Rusienia, ip Samogila. The daughteruf noble and' wealthy parents, she was educated in the convent of JFuoso by the. nuns ot tlie order of St. Benedict., .Of mid dling stature,' but admirably proportioned, with a profusion: of dark auburn hair, her fine features: and her 'large expressive blue eyc|, wearing a grave and melancholy ex pression; Antoinette possessed at once the body and soul of the Amazon.. Endowed with the imagination, the heart of fire, and the native heroism which is the appanage of the .Lithuanians,, site hud lung been distin guished among her companions for her rur mantle enthusiasm, and her. profound devo ■tion to the Polish malipniility. With wliai transports, with what avidity did she treas ure up every, thing relative to the.ancichi glory of Poland, and. what tears she shed .on. listening to the history, of her country’s dis asters, and the recital of the despotism un der which it groaned/ On these occasions her beautiful eyes‘.would sparkle .nation and- patriotism, anil her proud heart panted for the hour pf revenge. W hen,this hour at length arrived, Anto inette was scarcely, sixteen, hut on.lh’e fiw news of the rising .’the maiden’s resolution was. taken. Disregarding her ', tender age, her sex, and her'weakness, she forgot even, ■the tears of her family., for the voice of he; cuuntry wns evcr mfare pbwcrful than that ul TUe Heroine of Poland.. [AT TWO DOLLARS PER ANNUM. W[§w Series—Vol. 6. K 0.29, dressing one last; adieu to the happy scenes of her childhood, she joined Gruzowski, one of (he insurgent chiefs of the district of Ro sienia. . —~ '.When Antoinette Tumazewskl arrived in the Samogitian’camp, it resounded will) the cry of enthusiasm and sympathy. We (chow not which most to admire, her transcendent beauty-or.. her exalted patriotism,--—But it was not their homage that she went there to seek. Faithful to the noble feelings: that actuated her, she went'immediately to the chief, explained to him eloquently and in a few words her motives, and demanded a .horse and arms.. She was enlisted in a body of horse, and'in a few days could wield her lance as well as any of .her. companions.— .From that, moment she unsexed herself for the service! of her country. Attached as a private soldier'to the corps of Gruzowski, clothed ill the Uniform, and armed, de pied en cap, reserved for herself in case of mis fortune a' poignard, which she concealed in her girdle, she' was present with the corps in every action, and gallantly braved both danger and death. In a charge which was made at, Marikuni, in Sathiigilia, the young Antoinette performed- prodigies of valor.— Generals Geilgud-' and CliToyowski' com manded in this action,-in which a regiment of Circassian cavalry harrassed severely the rear of the. Polish columns.. Unable to keep the field against an enemy ten times more numerous, it becaine neccssary to check this hot pursuit,and the Polish cavalry were in consequence ordered to charge the Circas sians. Antoinette rushed forward wit{rtherti; with eyes flashing fire, her face burning with, rage, the young nccoinu penetrated into the thickest of the Muscovite giving an example of hedbic courage toiler countrymen', who.soon'dispersedlUcVAneiny..- ; 'Geilgud and Chloyowski. and -all their staff .were overwhelmed 1 with astonishment; and on returning .to (he camp, after .the de feat of the enemy the young heroine was re ceived amid,loud and enthusiastic hurras.—■ The hour of defeat for 1 the Polish cause at length sounded, but Antoinette. was un movedi "Following the retreat of the army she was present in (he action of Schawls, and'distinguished herself in Several other aft'aits, particularly at POwendemc, where she received the epaulettes ofm sub-lieuten ant as a recompense fur her coniage. Pos sessing the nublest attiibutes of a warrior, she was a model of patience and resignation during the periods of difficulty and distress. She consoled her companions by liolding,put to them the. hopes of a brighter future.— Throughout a harrassing’ retreat, amid (he fatigu.es of the bivouac, and privations of every kind, never once did a complaint or an expression escape her lips.— One might have supposed twenty years had inured her to the hardships of a comp. From the commencement of her career, so reserv ed and dignified washer demeanor, that she inspired her comrades with feelings of the prufoumlest veneration and deference. In the garb of an Amazon, (hey learned to re spect the young maiden whom, an exalted Spirit of patriotism.had driven from the cloi ster to the battle field. At length, when every hope was lust, when nu'lhing more was to bp done‘at Lithuania, Ton azowski follow ed the fatal fortunes of the Army, and en tered Prussia with lire' corps of General Ruhland.. There, on the recital of her ad Venturous life and her perilous exploits, she became an' object of universal interest, admiration, and hospitality. BOtlrPrussians and Pules Were lost in wonderment at-the aspect of a. maid en who had made,a campaign as a private soldier, and gained at the point of the lancer the epaulettes bf a sub-lieutenant. Antoinette has since married a Polish officer, a -warm admirer of her heroism and virtue. The duties of a wife and mother have doubtless subdued the grief of that ar dent and patriotic soul. -But the annihila tion of-her country and wreck of all those pleasing illusion's of- her youth will strew her future career with bitterness and sorrow. One of those poweHblly constituted minds that delight in splendid actions, .the part of Antoine tte-Tomaze wskiwastofiglitforj’o lapd, and her unceasing prayer to set -her free. But fate has ordained it otherwise, and doomed her to be one of the victims of barbarism and despotism. | A Magnetized Pig.— The editor of the (Cennebeck Journal keeps a pig, which, in his opinion, is a remarkably thriving one.— One of his singular-propensities is thus de scribed by the observing editor: “Sihce we heard Dr. Collyer,'we have made an experiment upon'our pig ; and find that notwilluitanding, he is by no means of a nervous temperament, but rather lympha tic, yet he. can be easily magnetized; The experiment was lried!by;scratching his back with,a stick. In ten seconds the.magnetic fluid began to operate upon him, as was evi dent by his closing his.ey.es aiid grunting audibly, while his slender tail c'urjed in a very , peculiar why.
