BY J. G. WIIITTIEB. I have seen the infant, sinking down like a stricken flower to the grave ; the strong man fiercely breathing out his soul upon the field of battik; the miserable convict standing upon tga — daffold, with a deep curse upon his lips. I have viewed death in all its forms of darkness and vengeance, with a fearless eye, but I never could look on woman—young and lovely woman—fa ding away from the earth in beautiful and uncomplaining melancholy, without feeling the very fountain of life turned to tears and dust. Death is always terrible, but when a form of angel-beauty is passing off to the silent land of the sleeepers, the heart feels that SOmething lovely is ceasing from existeve, and broods with a sense of utter desolation over the lonely thoughts that come up like spectres from the grave to haunt our midnight musings. A few years since I took up my resi dence for a short time in a country village in the eastern part of New England. Soon after my arrival, I became acquainted with a lovely girl, apparently about seventeen cars of age. She had lost the idol of her pure heart's purest love, and the shadows of deep and holy memories were resting like the wing of death upon her brow. 1 first saw her in the pn,sence of the mirth ful. be waq indtibd a creature to be wor shipped ; her brow was garlanded with the young year's sweetest flowers; her young locks were hanging beautifully and low nr on her boson, and she moved through the crowd with such a floating and unearthly grace, that the ben =ethics gazer almost looked to see her fade away into the air, like the creation of some unpleasant dream. She seemed cheerful and even gay, yet I ,aw that her gayety was but the mockery of her kelings. She smiled, but there was something iu her smile which told that its mournful beauty was but the bright reflec tion of a tear, and her eyelids at times clos ed heavily down, as it struggling to repress the tide of agony that was bursting up from the heart's secret urn. She lo o ked us if she could have left the scene of festiv ity and gone out beneath the quiet stars, and laid her forehead down upon the fresh green earth, and poured out her stricken soul, gush after gush, till it mingled with the eternal fountain of life and purity. Days and week passed on, and that sweet girl gave mo her confidence, and I became to her a brother. She was wasting away by disease. The smile upon her lip was fainter, the purple veins upon her cheek grew visible, and the cadencro of her voice became daily more weak and tremulous.— On a quiet evening in the depth- of June, I wandered out with her .in the open air. It was then she first told me the relic of passion, and of the blight that had come down like mildew upon her life. Love had been the portion of her existence. Its ten drils had been twined around her heart in its earliest years and when they were rent away, they left a wound that flowed till all the springs of her soul were blood. "I am passing away," she said, "and it should be so. The winds have passed ov er my life, and the bright buds of hope, and the sweet, blossoms of passion arc scat tered down, and fie withering in tho dust, or rotting away upon the chill waters of memory. And yet I cannot go down a mong the tombs without, a tear. It is hard to leave the friends that love me ; it, is very hard to bid farewell to these, scenes, with which I have held communion • from childhood ; and which, from, day to day, have miughtilie color of my life, and Sym pathised with its joys and sorrows. That little grOve, where I have so ofteAtrayed with my buried love, and where, at times, and, even now, the sweet tones of his voice seems to come stealing around me, till this whole air beemnos , one interne) and mournful melody—that pensive eta, which .we used to welch ;an, its early rising,, awl on which my fancy still 'eon picture : his (ormlookiw ilawA upon Ruh.and beckoning me, to nis own bright 4014070vT7 ilower,,and tr9ol and on which the memory of early, leye nas 0014 undying seal, , have become dear to nse-- : andl Cannot, without a sigh close my eyes upon them forever. I hate lately heard that the beautiful girl tlf whom I have spoken-it dead. This alone of her life was calm as the 'filling of a quiet stream'---gently as the sighing of the breeze, that lingers for a time around a bed of roses, and then dies, "as 'tonere from very sweetness."" 2 It cannot be that earth is man's only a,- biding place. It cannot be that our life is a bubble, cast off by the ocean of eternity, to float a moment upon its waves, and sink into darkness end nothingness. Else why is it that the hjgh and glorious aspirations, which leap like angels from the temple of our hearts, are forevisi wandering abroad unsatisfied P—Why is it that the rainbow and the cloud come over us with a beauty • DETTYSIIIIIIG, PA. FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTERBER 19, 1851. that is not of earth, and flea pais off, and leave us to mtise upen their faded nese ? li t by is it that opus, which hold their festivals around the Midnight throne, are above the grasp of our limited facul ties—forever mocking us with their unap proachable glory ? And why is it, that bright forms of human beauty are present ed to cur view and then taken from us, leaving the thousand streams of oar affec tions to flow back in an Alpine torrent up on our hearts ? We are born for a higher destiny than that of earth. There is a realm where the rainbow newer fades, whore the stars will be spread out before us like islands that slumber on the ocean—and where the beautiful beings which here pass before us like visions will stay in our pres ence forever. Bright creature of my dreams; in that realm I shall see thee again. Even now thy lost image is sometimes with me. In the mysterious silence of midnight, when - the streams are glowing in the light of the many stars, that image comes floating upon the beam that lingers around my pillow, and stands before me in its pale loveliness, till its own quiet spirit sinks like a spell from heaven upon my thought and the grief of years is turned to blessedness and peace. ONLY ONCE.—Ah ! tiiiat has destroyed the bright hopes of many a parent. One taste ofthe intoxicating. cup has sent ruin and death to many a household. One pro fane word has filled the heart with - sorrow and gloom. One penny from the master's drawer has sent the once happy youth to the penitentiary and the gallows. When tempted to break the law of God, will you stretch forth the guilty hand and say, this once and onoe only will I sin? Stop where you arc. It is the first act bf transgress sion that will play the ruin with you.— Step hut an inch over the forbidden ground to-day, and to-morrow a foot will not seem to be so dangerous, and next month you may be beyond thereach of love and affec tion and Christian influence. Resist the first suggestion to do evil. Tear yourielf away from the first grasp of sin. There is little honor in saying, "I have fallen but once ;" but a glory attaches itself to the character of him who'never for once over stepped the bounds of virtue. JOHN" RANNAPH was a man of eccentric genius, and often by the quaintness of a sen tence or 'n question, left upon his hear ers an impression never to be forgotten.— It is related of him that at one time he took an old favorite negro servant of his, up on one of the highest peaks of the Blue Ridge, and, and after becoming filled with the sublimity oldie scene, ho turned round to his slave and addressed him thus : "Ho ! Bob !" The negro turned towards his muster, who added in n slow and - solemn tone, "Bob, if any one after this, says there is no God, tell him John Randolph says he lies." The love of the beautiful and true, like the dew-drop in the heart of the ehryatal, remains forever clear and liquid in the in most shrine of man's being, though all the rest be turned to stone by sorrow and degrr (k SHOCKINO.—An Ohio editor in announ cing that he had seen a Bloomer, says, "she looked remarkably well, as far as he could are!"

A SLATE WHIPPED TO DEATH BY 1119 MASTER.—The Winchester Virginian gives • the particulars of a horrid affair in Clarke county, Va., on Wednesday of last week. which has excited great indignation in that section. The result of it was that Cul. James C., and his son Stephen, wore in dicted on Monday last. for having cruelly and unmercifully beaten two slaves the j Wednesday previous, (causing the death of one of them.) befoul:Mg to the former.— They have been held to bail in the sum Of 15000 each. From the evidence of die principal witness, a white laborer. the ee -1 gro was fastened up fur punishment, by having his hands tied, and a chain pulls. round his neck, thrown over a beam, and locked, just leaving a sufficient length for the unfortunate object to stand on the ground. He was then whipped with the tongue strap of a wagon, having a heavy buckle at the end, having been previously stripped, that the blows might be laid on the hare skin. After heating him in the most unprecedented manlier fer some time; they left him bound in the situation described, for the purpose of whipping his compan ion. The occurrence took place about sun set.
