" REFLECTIONS OF A TAILOR.
Day hath put on Ins jacket and around
His burning boeom buttoned it with stars.
leretwiUl lay me on the velvet moss
'That isjike padJinj to eirth's meagre ribs
"Anil hold ccTnmUniiln with the things abaut me.
"VAh ine! how lutely is the golden braid
That binds the skirt of night's descending robs ;
.riie twin-leaves quitcring on their silken threads
fflu make music like the rustling satin
- As the night breezes smooth their downy na$
Hal what is this that rises to my touch
So like a cushion ? Can it be a cabbage !
It is it is the decly injured-flower
Which hnystiu flout with ; but yet 1 luvc thee
"Thou giant rose wrapped in a green surtont;
Ihiubtlcss in Eden thou didst blush as bright
As these thy puny brethren ; and thy breaili
Sweetened the fragrance of the spicy air ;
Rut now thou seemest like .1 b-iiikrupt beau
Slript of his gaudy hues and essences
And growing portly in his sober clothes.
Is that a swan that fides upon the water?
Oh no! it is that oilier gentle bird
"Which is the patron of our noble calling.
I well remember in my boyhood's time
When these young hands first closed upon a goose:
1 have a scar upon my thimble-finger
Which chronicles the hour of young ambition.
My father was a tailor and his father
And ray great grandsirc all oTwhcm were tailors.
They had an ancient goose ; it was an heir-loom
From some remote tailor of onr race.
I am not certain but I think 'twas he
Who through misfortune was unfortunate.
No matter; "tea joy 10 straighten out
One's limbs and leap clastic from the counter
Leaving the petty grievances of earlh
The breaking thread the din of clashing shears
And all the needles that do wound the spirit.

by the Press we speak within bounds when
wc say that out of the two hundred and fifty I
or three hundred papers in the South and j
Southwest which are received at this office I
not fifty have at any time favored the nroicct
of the Nashville Convention; and of those !

vocate it. On the contrary the following. !
Irom an Alabama paper which has caught

presses a sentiment which (speaking of the
Slates of the South and Southwest in the ag

their People:

"We have lieard of but one call for a
meeting of the People in this State to ra-
tify the action of the members cf the
Legislature last winter in reference lolie
Nashville Convention. The people re-
main calm and imperturbable nolwilh-
standing the incessant ululations tchichare
kept up in certain quarters. We applaud
their good sense and aculc discernment.
No man dares to say that the people of
Alabama nave not the sense to under-
stand their rights and the spirit to main-
lain them. Why then if this Nashville
Convention presents the true test by which
the friends and enemies of the South are
to be ascertained have the people been
so tardy so unpatriotically slothful in pro-
claiming their approbation of its objects
and anxiety to be represented in it? They
love the Union the South are as quick
to apprehend danger to their rights and
as bold to protect them as those who per
iodically usurp the province ol speaking
for them and in their names through the
editorials of the public press. Yet not-
viihstanding all the inflammatory an-
jmv.Is which have been made to them and
the reproarJiful slang icltich has been let
off in such abundant sluices upon those who
have openly opposed tltis Convention there
has been but one call so far as we have
heard lor a meeting of the people to rat-
ify the proceedings at Montgomery.

All letters pertaining m this department must be
addressed to E. W. M. KINO Esq.
The Faculties for mtclleclual abilities moral
worth and professional acquirements till compaie
favorably with the most distinguished iitourcountry.
The medical faculty constitutes an aimnaly iu this
or any other country all of them arc able lectur-
ers and the best of teachers.
Those who will contemplate our geographical
posiiion and the extent ol our population can have
no doubt as to the eligibility of our situation for an
enterprise of tho kind. As lo health including all
seasons of ihc year wc deny that ar.y other city has
mare.
The first class of the Law and Medical Depart-
ment of this school were small but the gentlemen
composing them are talented and in the highest de-
gree respectable a favorable omen fur the future
prosperity of the Institute.
That tlie public may be satisficl of the perma-
nency of this school we feel it out duty to state
that the Trustees and faculty fornia'i'NiT in action
which augurs well for its future sccccsa ; and that
the peculiar internal organization ttiiich connects
them cannot be interrupted. (
