VOLUME II. NUMBER 20.
THE TENNESSEE CANVASS.
Gov. Jones has recovered his health and
is battling gallantly against his powerful and
popular competitor, Col. Polk. Large con
courses of people assemble at every appoint
ed place of discussion and great interest is
felt throughout the State in the result. The
effort of Col. Polk at Fayetteville in old
Lincoln is said to have been one of the most
able ami happy of his life. We can well im
agine, thatthe excitement of being surroun
ded by so many friends in that sterling dem
ocratic county would give an unusual glow
and power to the eloquence of that distin
guished dIator. From whdt we can learn
from ;ravel!ers from different parts of the
SUte, there can be little doubt of his elec
tion by a decided majority. It is thought
the democrats will carry the Legislature,
also, and thus secure a democratic majority
in the Senate of the United States. This
last is a most important consideration.
Democratic National Convention. It is
now, we think, generally conceded that this
important meeting will take place in May 1844,
a majority of the States so far having declared
in favor of that time in preference to Novem
ber of the present year. We rejoice at this,
because we have no doubt the latest day will
give the most general satisfaction. In the
mean while, let the friends of the respective
candidates press their claims, if they will, but
forbear to excite prejudice against either. We
should be ready to support the-successful nomi
nee, if fairly presented, although he may not
be our individual choice. It should be the pe
culiar pride of the democracy, that they have
so many distinguished men, either of whom
would do honor to the Presidential chair. We
must not let the whigs conquer ns by our di
visions. The North can support Mr. Calhoun
or the South Mr. Van Buren with perfect safe
ty to the interests of both. Between these two
great statesmen wo .feel confident the choice
will be made.
C Our bachelor brother McMahon of the
Enquirer is becoming a convert to Mesmerism
at last. Dr. Moore with his man "Richard"
labored in vain tho Col. pronounced it an
arrant humbug, but Dr. Boynton and bis fair
subject have succeeded. The Col. is mesmerised.
Dr. Lardner. This celebrated lecturer
has been delighting the good people of Vicks-
burg and Jackson. We understand the Dr.
will be shortly in Memphis. Could he not ex
tend his visit to our village? We believe his
lectures would be well attended. Several
gentlemen have expressed to us an anxiety
that he should come.
Gov. McNutts Address. We have read
in the Sentinel part of the Ex-Governor's ad
dress to his late constituents. It seems that
.when he said "he was right upon the Planters1
Bank Bonds," he meant that he was in favor
of their repudiation. But little new light is
thrown upon this subject. We find nothing as
yet calculated to change our formerly express
ed opinion.
The unlucky day of tiie week. Friday,
which is generally considered the most un
lucky day of the week, is" the only one named
altera woman, Friga, from which it is derived,
having been tho wife of 0n, an old Saxon
warrior. What Bay our married friends to
this?
SPARE THE BIRDS.
BY GEORGE M. BETHVKZ, X. .
II
Spare the gentle bird. -
Nor do the warbler wrong;
In the green wood is heard
Its sweet happy, song;
Its song so clear and glad,
Each list'ner's heart hath stirred,
And none, however sad,
But bless'd that happy bird.
And when, at early day, .
The farmer trod the dew,
It met him on the way
With welcome blithe and true,
So when at weary eve,
He homeward wends again,
Full sorely would he grieve
To miss the well loved strain.
The mother, who had kept
Watch o'er her wakeful child,
Smiled a the baby slept,
. Soothed by its wood-notes wild ;
And gladly had she flung
The casement open free,
As the dear warbler sung
From out the household tree.
The 6ick man on his bed
Forgets his weariness,
And turns his feeble head
To list its songs, that bless
His spirit, like a stream
Of mercy fcom on high, "
Or music in the dream
That seals the prophet's eye.
O ! laugh not at my words,
To warn your childhood's hours,
Cherish the gentle birds,
Cherish the fragile flowers;
For since man was bereft.
Of Paradise in tears,
God these sweet things hath left
To .cheer our eyes and ears.

ARRIVAL OF THE CALEDONIA AT
BOSTON.
The steamer Caleionia, Capt. Lott, arrived
at Boston on Friday, 19th inst., from Liverpool,
bringing dates five days later than received by
the Great Western. There is no chanae of
nole in the state of trade, and manufactures
continue depressed. The Overland Mail had
not arrived at London at the last advices.
Another debate has been held in the House

not be until the 25th or 26th. The choice of a
President of the Chamber of Deputies would
exercise considerable influence on the solution
of the ministerial crisis. It was reported at
Madrid that the Spanish Consuls at Bayoune
and at I erpignan had forwarded information to
the government that the Charlists weie about
to attempt another " insurrection. This report ,
however, had not created any sensation.
