TWO PARTINGS.
BY iflft.PH A. B-'N'SOV. «.
W» parted ot.c» before. You wept
When I rose up to go. you did}
You prey’d for m before you slept.
You little love, you know you did !
And ao grief now is on that brow.
Which then, yon said, throbb*! so, you did
You loved me batter then than now—
You cruel thing, you know you did I
Do you remember what the sea
I took you out to show you, did ?
You made a pretty simile 5
You falsa of toague, you know you did 1
You sighed, “ That life were like its crests
When sunshine breezes blow,’’ you did}
“To catch love’s light before It rests I”
You cold, cold heart, you know you did.
What have I done ? You smile no mo.-a
On me as month* ago you did i
You deem my homage now a bore;
You liked it then, you know you did.
“How blast,” you said, ‘ were life with ono
Who'd love one truly 1” O, you did I
But—you thought I waj an elder son—
You attar flirt, you know you did !
Beware of Parting.
Bulwer, the master novelist, writes re
flections which will appeal to the sensi
bilities of overy man and woman:
There is one warning lesson in life
which few of us have not received; and
no book that I can cuii to memory has
noted down with an adequate emphasis.
It is this, "Beware of parting.” The true
sadness is not in the pain of the parting,
it ia in the When nnd the How you are to
meet again with the face about to vanish
from your view! From the passionate
luicwcji iu uic woman wiiu mis yuur riri
in her keeping, to the cordial good-by
exchanged with pleasant companions at a
watering place, a country house, or the
close of a festive day's blithe, or a care
less excursion—a cord .stronger of'wcaker,
is snapped asunder in evry pnning, arid
Time's busy fingers are practiced in re
splicing broken ties. Meet again yon
may, will it be again in the same way?
With the same sympathies? With the
same sentiments? Will the souls, hur
rying on in divers paths, unitu once more,
■S if the interval had been a dream ?—
Rarely, rarely! Havu you not, after
even a year, even a mouth’s absence, re
turned to the same place, found the same
groups reassembled and yet sighed to
yourself, “but where is the charm that
once breathed from the spot, and once
smiled from the faces ? ”
A poet said, "Eternity itself cannot re
store the loss struck from the minute.”
Are yon happy in the spot in which you
tarry, with the persons whose voices are
melodious to your ear? Beware of part
ing! or, if part you must, say not in inso
lent defiance to Time and Destiny!—
“What matters? vve shall soon meet
again.” Alas, and alas! when wo think
of the lips which murmured, “Soon meet
again,” and remember how in heart, soul
and thought, we stood forever divided the
one from the other, when, once more face
to face, we each only exclaimed, “Mel
again !”

Memphis, August 14, 1858—tf.
jot TON PLANTER S ~
ATTENTION!
A COTTON GIN FEEDER that will save
A- the labor of a hand at every Cotton Gin
> which it may be attached, thus dispensing
ith feeding by hand, (a very injurious prac
ce to the close attendant.) is certainly a desi
ible object. Besides which, the Feeder will
smove a large portion of the dust, dirt, hulls,
;c., from the cotton, before it enters the gin,
ius improving the quality and “sample” ol
le cotton, that will be an important point. I
[aim that my
Eclipse Cotton Gin Feeder
ill accomplish the above results. I haveLet
rs Patent for it, bearing date October 13,
157.
i am willing to put up one of them in a
'ighborhood, that planters may see for tbem
ilves whether it will benefit them or not.
One of them is now on exhibition at the
ard-Oil, Soap and Candle Factory of J. P
rcscott & Co., in Memphis, (infront of Com
ercial Hotel,) where any one can see it put
operation. Planters visiting Memphis are'
trnestly requested to call as above directs,
id investigate its merits.
For further particulars address them.
