To the Hall of the Feast came the sinful and fair; She had heard iu the city that Jesus was there. Unheeding the splendor that bloz'd on their board, She silently knelt at the feet of her Lord.

The hair from her forehead so sad and so meek, Hungdarko'er the blushes thatburn'd on hercheik So still and so low she knelt in her shame. It seemed that the spirit had flown from its frame. The frown aud the murmur went round thro' them all, That one so unhailow'd should tread in that hall And soio said the poor would be objects more meet tor the wealth of the perfume she pour'd on his feet. She mark'd but hi Saviour, she spoke but by sighs, She dar'd not look up to tho hcav'u til" his eyes And the hot tears gush'd iurth at each heave of In breast, As her lips to his sandals she ttiro'ubiugly prest.

The resolutions adopted do away altogether with the free pass or dead-head" system, and after the expiration of the current year, no pass, in any case, will be gran ted. The. resolutions are so strict in their construction, that when the president of one railway shall have occasion to travel over another he will be charged full fare. The practice of passing clergymen at half fare will also cease at the close of the year. Resolutions looking to a gradual but general increase of the tariff of prices for freight and passage were also agreed upon.

The new regulations are to go into effect on the 1st of January next. The Constellation, at Norfolk, is fitting for the Pacific ocean, and the Jamestown, at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, for the coast of Africa. The frigate Sabine, at New York, is preparing for a cruise.

Rochester American, September 21. rff- This reminds us of a similar sceuein Natchez, a few years siuce, which terminated with similar re sults, with the exception of a few comical incidents.

The sea-devil, or devil-fish, belongs to the cartilaginous class of fish, and to the family of raiiUae, or rai, a good type or representative of which is the sting ray commonly called eitimjaren by our fishermen. Along the coast of the Atlantic States, but especially in southern harbors, numerous species of ray arc found the well-known clam-cracker, or eagle ray, the whip-sting ray, the prickly ray, the fckails, and' muny others. The clam-cracker attains a great faize; we have measure' hem live feet across the wings, and are credibly that much larger ones have been taken. But none of them can be said to rival the devil fish, either in size, weight, muscular powers, or curious form. Having a hotly eight or tou feet long, a tail six feet, aud not unlikea large wagoner's whip two inflexible Hups or wings as long as the body, one attached to each side, and measuring from tip'tu tip seventeen or eighteen feet across, and "with which he drives himself furiously through the water, or vaults high into the air," a capacious "mouth three feet wide, with gape sufficient to receive two aldermen abreast two fins, one projecting from each side of the mouth, horns or aruis, but properly, instruments of prehension, used as feelers or feeders, with which it sweeps into its large mouth the small fish, shrimps and fry, upon which it preys; two prominent eyes, once placed at the base of each horn or arm, and about four feet apart skin shagreen like that of tho shark teeth very small, not more than twice the size ot the nsperites upon the scales mouth lined with ten double rows of strainers, a curious but beautiful apparatus, a fine soivc through which it infiltrates the water, and secures the small animals upon which it feeds color dusty black above with long, dusty, obaqueclouds beneath, on a while ground these, all combined, present a singular form of animated nttn the devil fish.

Unlike his cotenijxprar th shark, when, according to the classification t.i Professor Agassiz, is of tbe same order of fish, the p'acoid, the devil fiah is a very lively animal he leaps often and high into the air, and with a half somerset or a flap of his wings, Jails back into bis element wiiu a great noise and a splash. It is no uncommon amusement, if amusement indeed it is, for this -h to pick up the grapnel of some fishing boat or other craft, his horns or arms, which he plies rapidly before his mouth," while be swims una clasps with luis nt- uioit obstinacy whatever body it may inclose; dart ofl'suddculy, aud with great rapidity -'rag after it the boat aad its terrified crew, aud after an excursion of a mile or two relax his hold and escape. But he does not always freely loose himself at his pleasure; frequently he becomes entangled in the rope, "tnd in his struggles to extricate himself, turns somersels, twisting the rope into 'oils, enveloping himself with- them, and thus torteits his lite, to his temerity. In a similar manner was the subject of this paper taken. A large schooner was anchored a few rods from the break-water of Sullivan's Island, discharging her cargo into a flat, or lighter.

To facili tate the passago ot the lighier Iroru and to the ves sel, a hawser was extended from the latter, and the end made fast on the shore, the slack of tho rope swinging loosely several feet below the surface of the water, the tide about half ebb, and the current rapid; suddenly the schooner was discovered to be adrift, as the captatn supposed, and swinging round towards the shore. Unon looking to the hawser tor relief, be saw that a devil-fish was entangled in the bight. This was about seven o'clock in the evening and not before midnight, and after much labor and considerable risk of life, did he succeed iu bringing him alongside the vessel properly secured. During the struggle tho fish dragged the schooner, anchor, and all, about three hundred yards. His horns, or arms, were loundclasped around the hawser.

and from the number of somersets he made, many round turns ana coils oi the rope were passed about bis bodv. A few years ago, and near the place here this occurred a scow was anchored, belonirinfr to the government, and used as a lighter tor stone in build ing the break-water, the crew were engaged on tne work ashore. Suddenly she was seen moving at a rapid rate out to sea: boats were sent in pursuit, and after a long chase of several miles, she was overtaken and found to be sale at anchor. It is presumed that oue of these fish was the cause of the mysterious flight of the scow; clasping his horns around the stock of the anchor, lie tugged her through the narrow and winding channel, and moored her safely in the oiling; giving the crew a long chase and a tedious row, and eliciting many maledictions from tbe sailors upon the head ot the marine representa tive of his Satanic Majesty. lo the lion.

An iMKiiKKTisii Spot. We make tho following extract from a writer at Tunis to the riiiladcl phia Kveuirg Bulletin: How littlo and insignificant seem the things of the present time when standing on the summit of one of those sun-browned lulls, waicli rise beneath the city of Tunis, and look down upon thatRhades where devoted Rcgulus triuinr ''ed, and on those white walls, beneath whose shauows ho became the prisoner of Spartan Xantippus. Before you are spread out tho plains whereon vindicative Hannibal assembled the grand army, which, like a de luge, he poured from the Alpine cliiTs over luxuri ous Italy. Those ruins, which you see ia tin distance, looking towards the north, perpetuate the names and deeds of the two Scipios.

On that fallen column Manus sat, contemplating Ins ruined tor-tunes. He bid the ouicer of the prefect to tell his master that he had seen Marius sitting among the r-'ins of Carthage." Still a little farther off, but pet out of view, thebare site of Uticaalono remains to tell of the city where Cato's svvord took its masters' life, after he could no longer give his senate laws." Those rocks, surf-beaten and weather-worn, bore witness to the heroism of Syphax. From yonder mountains catuo Numidian Jugurtlia to revel amid the fruitful possessions of his cousins, Adhcrbal and Hierapsal. Along that rough coast old Belisarius led one of the last of the victorious armies which decaying Rome seut out against her enemies. From the harbor in front, fierce Genseric, the Arian King, launched his vandal fleets (as he said) "against whatever country had offended the justice of Heaven." The du3t which fills the air is that of the altars whereou Cyprian and Lactantius, and ereat Ausrustine worshipped "the living God" after the manner which they Lad learned at tho feet of the immediato pupils of hrist Disciples.

lurn around, and your eyo will rest upon those wooded gorges and narrow defiles, through which fanatic Akbar led his Moslem hosts, from the desert wastes beyond, to found a new Holy City and plant the standard of the fu.se prophet upon those castled turrets so long used for defence of the cradle of c'aris-tianitv from the assaults ul' heathendom. Yonder lit tle white chapel was erected by Louis Philippe, of France, upon the spot where uis ancestor, bt. JjOuis, stretched on his bed of ashes, surrendered his devoted spirit into tho hands of that God for whose cause he had so long contended. On those battle fields Imperial Charles (the Fifth) nearly three centuries afterward, fearfully revenged the sufferings of his royal predecessor of Franco. And finally, from the port beneath your feet, tho Harbaropas, Hayrad-din and Hayduc, and their successors forages sallied forth, carrying terror and destruction to thecoufincs ot the Christian woild.

Here, if Tradition, the mother of History, is to be credited, fled the remnant of the Canaanites, when Joshua, the son of Nun, led the children of God to their homes in the promised land. And here, too, followed to join them those of their Anialekite and Philistine kindred, who remained alter the 1 arvet of the conquering sword of the "son of Jesse," when he completed the work of eradicating tho original inhabitants of the land (lowing with milk and honey." Hither, also, by a kind of poetic justice, were a large portion of he descendants of the children of Israel forced to seek an asylum after Vespasian and Titus had overthrown the temple of Solomon, and faction and rapine desecrated Mount Zion. Here, also, in turn, came the disciples of that new faith, which taught "peace on earth and good will to men," when a retreat from the persecuting spirit of paganl-m was demanded as a shelter for infant Christianity. And finally, strange to say, on this very same soil, which had cradled the religion of Jesus in its youth, and fostered and strenghthened it beyond almost any other ia its vigorous manhood, Abdullah and Akbar, planting the green banner of Mahomet, effaced every trace of their Christian predecessor, leaving no stone upon another of those magnificent churches and marble columned cathedrals which bristled tho whole coast of North Africa from beyond Hippo to Alexandria. A Shobt Sermon on Manliness.

Learn from the earliest days to insure your principles against the peril of ridicule. You can no more exercise your reason if you live in the constant dread of laughter, than you can enjoy yourlile ifyou are in constant terror ot death. Ifyou think it right to differ from the times, aud to make a point of morals, do it, however antiquated, however rustic, however pedantic, it may appear, do it, not for insolence, but seriously and grandly as a man who wore a soul of his own in his bosom; and did not wait till it was breathed into him by the breath of fashion. Sydney Smith. J31F They tell some strauge stories in the North of the wild beasts and serpentsdriven into the haunts of men by tbe mountain fires.

The latest and perhaps the most marvelous is related by the White-hall (N. Chronicle, which states that one Dr. Hayues saw near that town a monstrous snake lying iu the road ahead of him, tbe length of which he thinks was not less then thirty feet. Its head was as large aa a man's, and was erected on his approuch about three feet high. The road being thus barricaded, the doctor beat a retreat in search of help.

On his return his suakeship bad departed through the woods, leaving a trail like that made by snaking" a log. Whether this serpent finally took to the sea," the Chronicle or its informant sayeth not. 7 jf-rr GrU aU sU E- fxeem If 'all, sriec II Vija Ortf- if Wii ewtf, tmani, mm au ecr penm u- YOU ARE HEREBY CITED to and ar. near before lh Probate Court of county, at the Court iloote thereof, oa tbe fourth Monday in next, then aod there to answer tbe petition of Turwr tared and Catltense Ewell, his wile, neirs ot aua aecesueu, iur ssue me personal estate of said decedent, and ahow camse.

DIED On the 30th FENTON MICHIE, a resident student of the Charity Hospital of New Orleans, late of Adams County, Mississippi. The subject of this notice was a young graduate student ot the medical Department, New Orleans, and tne eldest son of D. C.

Michie, of Adams County, Miss. He fell gallantly at his post in the cause of science fell nobly, battling the Pestilence with an undaunted front. Over the remains of no dying soldier on tbe field of battle, who falls in the deadly charge, can the brave more truly weep in sympathy, than would they have done, had they witness-ed the last fleeting days of this youth. With the rose of modesty and the flush of health mantling his manly cheek, with an eye that brightened with manly and noble impulses whenever innocence called for protec tion, or weakness tor sympathy, he had just gone forth amid the world ot strangers, leaving the hospitable roof of a proud fond mother, of a father who loved his eldest born he had gone forth from a most affectionate aunt and nncle, to carve for himself a name among men, to develope the high science be had chosen for his profession, and to reflect noblv on those who had been instrumental in training up his mind to excellence, and to an extraordinary degree of moral worth. He had gone forth thus.

Alas What bright hoies. what eay expectations, what bril liant anticipations arose iu the warm imagination of that high-toned and noble young man, an to oe crushed in a few, short fleeting days, Ere those he was so dear to on earth could come to bid a last adieu, and shed their mingled tears over a dying son, Ere the fair sisters could throw their arms around his sinkinsr form, and press a last kiss on bis pale Ere the Aunt, of whom he was the adopted child, could come to smooth his pillow, part back the fair hair over fairer temples, kiss him tenderly, and bid him a last farewell. Ere all this could be, Fenton died died among strangers. True, they gave him every attention that men ot hirh position would na turailv accord to the voune companion and associate for whom thev entertained such great respect. But in a crowded hospital, amid the sick, the dying and the dead amid consternation and dread, wnere attendant physicians were worn down and exhausted what under these circumstances, could be the charac ter of such atteution to this tender youth, who had been reared in the lap of luxury; there was no sister there, whose tight footstep followed his slightest wish then to speak kindly and gently of hope even the hope of surviving tho dreadtul attack, no mother there to outwatch the stars, and finally wipe the death dew from his btow.

Alas! there was none of this. 'Tis a sad picture, view it as we will. When he found that death was inevitable and his hour come, be drew from his pale fingers two rings and gave them to a gentleman, that one should be given to his motner, the other to bis aunt, as a memento ot him and as an emblem of bis eternal love. He now dwells in peace. Let the survivors who mourn his loss, feel a sweet consolation to know they have trained this noble ueart, and educated this gifted mind have used their influence in developing the desirable qualities of the deceased all to tkt glory of nod.

Lt then come the solemn thought, that this is so, and let them bow in meek submission to tbe divine will. He who removes from earth tbe purest spirits to a better world, and let them and all reflect that the time is swift'y approaching when we too must look our lust on earth. Sexton's Report.

Akn Royall died at Washingtou on tbeuOth aged 92 years. The Washington Sentinel gives the aunexed account of this eccentric lady For the last quarter of a century she was the editress of a weekly paper, the name of which was, originally, tbe Paul Pry, but was afterwards changed to that of the Huntress. She was the authoress ot several volumes, entitled the Black Book," a narrative of travel throughout the United criticisms of individual character. She was a wohian of considerable literary attainments, and benevolence, aud of strict integrity, although somewhat peculiar in her views. Uer husband having beeu a captain in tho army of the Revolution, she, as his widow, drew a pension of forty dollars a month.

About six months ago she annouueed, after recovering from a severe attack of sickness, that she felt as strong and healthy as she did at any former period of her existence. However, she then trembled with age, as might naturally be expected. But she is gone, after a long period of active life. ExTaAORDINABY Case of Prktesdkd Ixsanjtt. Tbe Ciuciuuati Commercial of the 1st says: Among tbe individuals, nineteen in number, who will be taken to-day from this city to serve out various terms in tbe Penitentiary, is Joseph Marshall, convicted of burglary, and uuder sentence of six years' confinement.

For tbe past five or six weeks he has been feiguing iusauity, with a furious pertinacity quite remarkable. So" violent has he been that his legs have been secured with a stout chain, and bis arms heavily shackled. Day after day he had raved for hours and rolled hiseyes as if suffering spasms of in ad ess. He bas worked his mouth until it frothed like a mad-dog's, and made desperate efforts to bite every one who drew near, and bas act ually, in several cases succeeded in inflicting painful wounds with his teeth. He has been closely confined in a dungeon, through the bars of which be could be seen rolling, clanking his chains, gritting his teeth, and heard howling horridly.

He tore the clothes from bis person, refused food, and wallowed like a wild beast in the tilth. Yesterday, finding that there was no hope for him be gave it up saying, that it was of no use to rave any more, aa he was beateu but such a course had once availed him, and would now, he thought, if Pruden had not pnt it to him so tight." He called for a razor, shaved himself neatly, put on clean clothes, and endeavored to be as comfortable aa possible, under the circumstances. He is much emaciated, and, in his struggles and devilish conduct, has injured his person to a considerable extent. He was once a powerful man, and distinguished for feats of agility in a circus to which he was attached. Da.

On he goes into the middle of the world. How swells the dome above him, and manhood is erect still, lint "westward, westward," is the word; and by and by he bends his head beneath the roof. Tbey sav he is old, that tho weight of years is on him that he is looking for a place lo sleep but it is only that he may ciear the rafters. Lower and lower does he bend, till with form quite double, he creeps out just between heaven and earth and is seen no more. Death is not afraid of tho sunshine, for he comes in the summer.

The rustle ol" ten thousand leaves dues not startle him the breath of ten thousand flowers does not charm him away. Indeed, he loves flowers for they muffle his tread and his scythe glides softly amid their tender leaves, waking no echo to disturb the u-isuspectiug one on uhoui his eyes he fixed.

Dr. Lorenzo B.

He was committed to jail, and when jailer went to bring him up for trial he was fouud suspended by the neck to a bar in his cell door The way ot the transgressor is indeed bard.

Oar Sanctum Again. Again we write in onr sanctum, though not as at first, upon the stump of our first fiillen tree. Our cabin is partially reared, and near it we have selected a shady tree, from whose boughs we have interwoven a cool, airy and delightful bower. A rustic seat formed of poles with the green soft grass for a cushion, and an umbrageous limb as a table, upon which our port-fhlin rpsts. Wa have been out scrambling through i tbe bushes to gather some of the delicious and juicy plums that grow in wild profusion around us.

The reverberating echoes of the ax of the distant squat- t(r. mine-led with the moonlight anthem of the wild- wood warbler, fall upon our ear as the sound of merry music. In the distance upon the river we see the approach of the noisy steamer disturbing nature lovelv seclusion with its clicking machinery and clouds of steam and smoke, whilst in the brckground smokes tbe great camp fire, over which broils a brace of quails and a plump duck for our mid-day meal. Our rude buffalo hammock hangs high over our head in the branches of the tree, a safe retreat from the stinging bite of the musketoes, which at evening swarm in great abundance. The rude village of the Omaha, with a few acres of luxurious maize, and other-vegetables, stand by the skirt of the timber, far away to the westward, upon the banks of a clear, pure stream ot nature choicest beverage, inose sons of the prairie forest have just returneqjfrom their summer bunt, to see what their ureal atner at asii-ington has sent them.

They look sorrowful and cast down. For they are soon to leave the lands and graves of their forefathers forever, to sojourn and leave their children upon the lands selected for them by the pale faces, whilst the Saxon race shall plow up the very graves ot their dearest kindred, ana leave their bones to bleach upon tbe surface of their fertile soil. Even now the restive white man has reared his claim cabin upon the very site of the last village ot these poor, tnougb noble ana last lading savages. I hey anxiously await the stipulated payments from ourGovern-ment, soon after which they will bid adieu to these pleasant lands. An hour later.

We have just returned from a chase after a flock of wild turkeys that had the impudence to invade our sanctum, for which we have cruelly punished them by taking one ot their number for a quiet squatter supper. The other half score took wing and away to the thick foliage, choosing to take their turn upon our rude wooded spit at a future time, to which terms we manfully agreed, and returned with enough for the present. A fine hickory tree that is a near neighbor to our sanctum is bountifully leaded down with rich, choice nut, which that tree produces. Nor is it alone, for within the range of our eye we see many of the kind in like manner, with drooping boughs from the weight of Our cook sounds the alarm whistle for dinner, and we hasten to devour the dainty morsels for which our sharpened appetites are well prepared from the labor and rambles of the forepart of the day.

The sound of axe, hammer and other fools are daily heard in and around this most eligible city site. Two stores, both doing a good business, are in successful operation, and in a few weeks one of the best steam saw-mills in the West will be in full blast close by us here. In connection therewith, the enterprising company purpose starting a good flouring mill; the engine ordered for the saw-mill will be of sufficient power foe both. A good substantial hotel will soon be ready for the reception of visitors and boarders. Tbe work on the other prominent buildings is progressing rapidly.

It really does one's heart good to see the Young America progress and goaheadative- ness which characterizes umaha In regard to our estimation of the future prospects of Nebraska, it is exactly in the centre of the United States it embraces all climates, and all the pbvsical varieties of nature through some portion of it the Pacific railroad will pass; and who shall tell tbe destiny in that age, when the Pacific coast shall be as far advanced as the Atlantic, and tbe capitol of the United States shall not be at Washington, but at some central city, equally easy of access to the honorable Representative from Passammaquoddy Bay, and to tbe distinguished nutors from the States ot Utah, Umbqua, aad NlkKh Oregon.

The Louisville Journal relates the following: We heard a capital anecdote about bocs the other day. In Madison and other counties, mast and acorns are very scarce.

It abounds, however, in Many hogs were driven there, which the Estell people considered an infringement on their rieh ts. Coun cils were called to how to rid themselves of this nuisance. Many plans were proposed, but nnauy, alter a gooa deal ot debate, one was adopted It seems that hogs have great fears of bears. Ac cordingly the skin of a bear was procured, and large sow was caught from one of the drove. She was covered with the bear skin and then let loose.

She immediately returned anion? the droves, hut nn her approach all the hogs took flight, pursued by the sow with tbe bear skin. It is stated that since the experiment not a hog has crossed the confines of tstetl county. Misrepresentation Corrected. We are requested to state, says the National Intelligencer, that agentle-man of tbe State of Delaware, who was at Mr. Clayton's residence on Monday last, authorizes, of his own knowledge, a contradiction of a statement in certain newspapers, that Mr.

C. had joined the Know Nothings. He says Mr. Clayton entertains the same opinions expressed by him last session, in the Senate, on the unconstitutionality of all laws allowing aliens to vote without naturalization, in the Territories, and that these are the same opinions expressed by him, as well as by Mr. Clay, Mr.

Southard, Mr. Calhoun, and all the Whigs in the Senate, in 1835-6 but that Mr. Clayton belongs to no secret order or society whatever. Tkbbible Thagedy. A gentleman from Syracuse informs us of the particulars of an airful affair that occurred at that place on Tuesday evening last.

A young man from the Mohawk valley cameto Syracuse ten days ago, having in his possession a con-sraerable sum of money belonging to his father. The son fell immediately into vicious associations, and soon gave himself up utterly to riotous debauchery. On Thursday of last week the father followed him to Syracuse, and found him suffering under a violent attack of mania a pota, having squandered nearly $2,000. Tbe father, who is said to have been at the time in a state of partiul intoxication, took his son to a tavern, and locked him up in a room in the upper part of the building. The son almost immediately threw himself from tbe window, and after falling one story, Btruck upon the railing of a balcony and was thrown inside, where he lodged upon the floor.

He sprung up, and although apparently considerably injured, immediately jumped over the railing, anil came down upon the pavement. He was so badly hurt that he only lived ten minutes. Buffalo Coin, Adv. Potatoes. Tbe Hartford (Conn.) Courant of Friday says We have never known so general a 'caving in on any subject as there is upon the opinion expressed a few weeks since iu reference to the potato crop.

Then every one was apprehensive of a short supply, but now all seem to think it will be the best crop that has been raised for years." We have similar information from other quarters. One farmer in East Windsor (Conn.) has gathered fifty bushels of potatoes of superior quality from forty rods uf ground, being a yield of two hundred bushels per acre. Tbe Bridgeport (Conn.) Farmer says that Alonzo Taylor, Esq. informs them that bis potatoes will yield three times better than last year. Fine Irish potatoes, by vessel, were sold on the wharf at Alexandria last week at retail for $1 50 per bushel.

This is but little more than half the price that good potatoes have been selling for elsewhere. t3f On Wednesday, the 18th by tho Rev. T. A. Easton, Mr.

Star. bank facilities in St. Louis, its merchants and manufacturers could not give the credits to purchasers that the Ohio river cities could, now states that no such difficulty exists; that the St. Louis merchants, tra-ders and manufacturers, can sell as low and give as long credits as the Ohio river cities that they can, iu fact, undersell the Ohio river cities and that St. Louis is the best and cheapest market for Memphis and the entire South our having no banks to the contrary notwithstanding.

We put this new and more flattering statement on record with pleasure, though we expect to lose the remodeling and the increase of our Banking system by it, for our strongest argument in favor of Banking capital here, was, that our business eould not compete with the Ohio river cities without it. J3f Tbe African code of honor is not likely to be adopted in any other latitude. A recent publication contaius this detail of its process "At the appointed time, the duellists appeared upon the tietd of accompanied by friends who were to witness their victory or sympathize iu their defeat. Each stalwart savage leaped into the arena, armed with a eow-hide cat, whose sharp and triple thongs were capable of inflicting the harshest blows. They stripped, aud tossed their couries into the air, to determine who should receive the first lashing.

Tbe unfortunate loser immediately took his stand, and received, with the firmness of a martyr, the alloted number of blows. Then came the turn of the whipper, who, with equal constancy, offered his back to the scourge of the enraged sufferer. Thus they alternated until one gave in, or until the bystanders decreed victory to him who bore the punishment longest without wincing.
