DoRiNG the enterprising expedilion into Upper Egvpt, Jnpe loldie Gen^ Desaix, a provincial soldier, fell into the power of a tribe of Arabs, called Maugrabins, and w«s by them carried inlo the desert, be¬ yond the cataract of the Nile. In order to place a safe distance between themselves and the French army, the Maugrabins made a forced march and did not stop till night closed in. They encamped around a fiiuntaih aurrounded by palm trees. Nut sappo'sing their prisoner would attempt to escape,-.they contented themselves ^vith merely binding his bands; and af^r hav¬ ing fad their horses, and made their supper upon dates, they all of them slept soundly. At soon as the French prisoner was con¬ vinced of tbis fact, he began to £naw the cords that bound him, and soon regained the liberty of bis hands. . fie seized a car¬ bine, and took tbe precaution to provide faimself with some dry daltes, snd a little bag of grain, and armed with a scimetar, started off in the direction ot the French »rmy. In his eagerness to arrive at a place of ntety, he urged the already wearied horse untif the generous animal fell down dead, and left his rider alone io the midst of the desert. JFor a long time the Frenchman walked on ,with the perseverance of a run¬ away slave, bul bc was at last compelled to stop. Tbe day was finished; notwithstand¬ ing the beauty and freshness of oriental nights, he did not feel strength enough to pursue his journey. Haviog reached a lit¬ tle cluster of palms, which had gladdened .{lis heart at a distance, he laid, bis head up- •on a stone and slept without taking any jrecaiition for his defence. He was awakened by tbe pitiless rays of <ho sun, which fell upon him with intelera- ble fervor; for in bis weariness he had re¬ posed on the side opposite to the morning abadows of the majestic palms. The pros¬ pect around filled him with despair. In every direclion nothing met his eye bul a vida ocean of sand, sparkling and dancing like a dagger in thd sunshine. The pure briiliancy of the sky left the imaydndtion nottuqg to desire. Nut a cloud ab.-icured its apleodor, not a zephyr moved the sur¬ face of. the desert. The earth and the heavens seemed on fire—they met at the liorizonin a"'lin9 of light, as.line and glit¬ tering as the edge of a sword. There was a wild and awful majesty in the universal stillness! God in all his infinity, seemed present to the soul! The desolate wanderer thought of the fountains and roses of his own native pro¬ vince and wept aloud. Ue clasped the palm, as if it had been a living friend. He shouted to relieve the forgetfulness of ut¬ ter solitude. The wild wilderness sent back'asharp sound from the dislance; but no echo was awakened. The echo was in ' ' bis heart! ' ><WithmeIancholy sleps he walked around tbe eminence on which the palm tree (Tfew. To bis great joy, he discovered on the opposite side, a sort of natural grotto formed by a pile of granite. Hope was awakened in his breast. The palm woods furnish him with datesfor food, and human beings might come that way before they were exhausted. Perhaps another party of Maugrabins, whose wandering Ijfe be¬ gan to have some charms fur his imagina¬ tion—or he might hear the noise of ap¬ proaching cannon—for Bonaparte . was then passing over Egypt. The Frenchman experienced a sudden. iransilion frorn the deepest despair to.the wildest joy. He oc¬ cupied himself during the day with cut¬ ting dowh some oftho palm trees to de¬ fend the mouth of tho grotto against. wild beasts,'Which would probably come in the night time to drink at the rivulet flowing at the fuot ofthe palms. Nothwithsland¬ ing the eagerness produced by fear ot be¬ ing, devoured, io his sleepi.fae could not finish his fortifications duringthe day: To- virards evening the mighty tree he had been cutting fell to the ground with a crash that resounded through the deisert, as if soli¬ tude had uttered a deep groan. The soldier trembled as if there had been a supernatural voice in th(3 air. But like an heir who soon ceases to mourn over a rich parent he immediately began to form his couch for the night. Fatigued by his exertions andthe extreme warmth of the climate, he'soon fell into a profound slumber.' In the middle of the night his sleep was suddenly disturbed by an extra¬ ordinary noiso. He raised himself and listened—and amid the deep silence he heard the loud breathing of some power¬ ful animal. The sound fell upon his heart like ice. The hair started upon his bead, and hc strained bis eyes to the utmost tu perceive the object of his terror. He caiigbt the glimpse of two faint yellow lights at a distance from him; hc thought itmight be an optical delusion, produced by his own-.earnest gaze, but as the rays of the moon entered ths chinks ofthe cave, he- distinctly saw »n enormous ani¬ mal laying ai;9Ultwo feetfrom him. Tbere was not sulBcieiit light to distinguish what species of anim'al it was; it might be a li¬ on, a tiger or a crocodile; but the strong odor that filled the cava left no doubt ot the presence of some large snd terrible creature. When the moon rose so as: to shine di¬ rectly upon tbe opening in the grotto, its beams lighted up tbe beautitul spotted hide of a huge panther! This lion of Egypt slept with her head upon her paws with the comfortable dignily of a great house dog. Her eyes whicb had opened from time to time were now closed. Her face was lurned towards the Frenchman. A thousand confused thoughts passed through the soldier's bosom. His first idea was tu shoot his enemy through the head; but he saw thai there was not room enough for that; the ball would inevitably have pass¬ ed her. He dared not to make the sliehl- est movement lest he should awake Iier, nolhing broke the deep silence but the brealK of the panther and the beating of her heart. Twice he puts his hand upon his scimetar, bul the difficulty of penetra¬ ting her hard rough skin, made him relin¬ quish his project. To attempt her destruc¬ tion and tail in the atlempt would be cer¬ tain deatij. At all events he resolved to wait for dayligilt. Day came at last, and showed the jaws of t&e sleeping panther covered with blood. 'She bas eaten lately,' said the French¬ man to himself. ' She will not awaken in hunger.' She was in truth a beautiful monster. The fur on her throat and legs was ofa daz¬ zling whiteness; a circle of little dark spots like velvet, formed pretty bracelets round her paws—her large muscular tailwas beau¬ tifully white terminated by black rings; and the soft smooth fur on her body was of a glowing yellow, like unwrought gold, richly shaped with dark bruwn spots in the form of roses. This powerfulbuttranquil hostess reposed in as graceful an atlitude asa puss sleeping on a footstool. Hor head stretched on ner¬ vous outstretched paws, from which her long white smellers spread out like silver threads. Had she been jn a cage the French¬ man would certainly have admired the per¬ fect symmetry of her dark form, and the rich contrast of colors, that gave such an imperial brilliancy to hor robe, but alone and in her'power it wasa very different thing. Atthe muulh of a cannon he had fell his cjuiagc risingwith increasing dan- gar; bul it was sinking now. The cold sweat poured from his forehead as he saw the sleeping panther. Considering him¬ self a dead man, he awaited his fate as courageously as he could. When the sun rose, the panther suddenly opened her eyes—stretched out her paws and gaped, showing afrightful row of teeth and a great tongue as hard and as rough as a file. She then shook herself and began to wash her bloody paws, passing them from lime lo time over her ears like a kitten. 'Very well done,' ihought the soldier, who fell his gaily and courage returning—' She does her toilette very handsomely.' He seized a litlle dagger he had taken from ona of the Arabs—' Oome let us wish one another good morning,' thought he. At this moment the panther turned her haad towards him suddenly, and fixed a surpris¬ ed and earnest gaze upun him. Tbe fixedness of herbright metalic eyes, and their almost insupportable brilliancy; made the soldier tremble, especially when the mighty beast moved towards him. With great boldness and presence of mind, be looked her directly in tho eye, having of¬ ten beai-d that great power may be obtain¬ ed over animals in that manner. When she came up to bim be.gently scratched her head, and smoothed her fur. Her eyes gradually softened, she began to wag her tail, and at last she purred like a pet cat; but so deep and strung were her notes of.joy, that tbey resounded through Ihe cave like the roIUng of achurch organ. The Frenchman redoubled his caresses and when he thought her ferocity vias suf¬ ficiently tamed be attempted to leave the grotto. The panther made no opposition to his going out; butsbo soon came bound¬ ing after him, lifting up her back and rub¬ bing against his legs, like an affectionate kitten. ' She requires a great deal of at¬ tention,' said lhe Frenchman, smiling. He tried to feel of her ears and throat; and perceiving she was pleased with it, he be¬ gan to tickle the back ofher head with tho point of his dagger, hoping to find a favor¬ able opportunity to slab her; but the hard¬ ness of the bunes made him tremble lest he should not succeed. The beautiful Sultana ofthe Desert seem¬ ed to tempt the courage of her prisoner, raising her head, stretching out her neck and rubbing againsthim. The soldier sud¬ denly thought that to kill her with one blow, he must strike in the throat. He raised his blade for that purpose—but at that moment she crouched down gently al bis feet, looking up in his faco with a strange mixture of affeclion and native fierceness. The poor Frenchman leaned against tho Vree eating sume dates, and casting his eye anxiously around the desert to see if no one was coming to free him from his terrible companion whose sirange friendship was litlle to bc trusted. He of¬ fered to feed her with some nuts and dates, but she looked upon them with supreme contempt. However, as if sensible ofthe kino i.ntentiuns, she licked his shoes and purred. ' Will she be so when she gets hungry!' thought the Frenchman. The idea made him tremble. He looked atthe size ofthe panther. Sha was three feet high and four feet long, without including her tail, which was nearly three foet more in length, and as round as a great cudgel. Her head was as big as a lion's, and her face was distinguished by a peculiar ex¬ pression of cunning. The cold cruelty of the tiger reigned there; but there was like wise something strangely like ihe.counte- nance ofan ariful woman, in the gaily and fondness of. the present moment. She seemed like Nero drunk. She had her fill of blood, and she wished to frolic. During the day if he attempted to walk away, the panther watched him, as a dog does his master; and never suffered him, to be out of sight. He had discovered the remairisof his horse which had been drag- ed near.the mouth of thecavern, and be easily understood why she had respected his slumbers. , . Taking courage from the past, he began to hope he could get along very comforta¬ ble with- his' new companion. He laiid himself by her in order to corciliato her good opinion. He patted her oeck,, and she began' to wag her tail and purr. He took hold qf her paws, felt her ears, aind rolled over the grass. She ^suffered' hiiin to do all this; and when he played'with her paws, she carefully, drew itt her claws, lest she should hurt him. ;.The Frenchman again put bis.hand upon bis weapon, with;a view of plunging it iii her throat, biit he still held by the fearthat the animal would tearhim to pieces in her agony, Besides, he really began to have an unwillingness to kill her. In the,lbriely desert she see ra¬ ed to him like a friend. 'His admiration of her beauty, gentleness, graceful activity, became mixed with lass and less terror. Ha actually named her Mignonne, in re¬ membrance ofa lady whom he had loved in his youih; and who was abominably jealous of him. By the end of the day he had become su familiar wilhhisdangerous situation that hc was almost in love wilh its e.xciting perils. He had even taught the panther her name. She looked up in his face when he called her 'Mignonne.' When the sun went down she ultered a deep and melancholy cry. ' She is well educated,' exclaimed tbe soldier. 'She has learned to say ber evening prayers.' He rejoiced to see the panther stretch herself butin a drowsy attitude, : 'That is right my pretty litlle blonde,' said he—'Yeu hsd better go to sleep first.' . Hc trusted to his own activity to esijape during her slumber. He waited patiently and when she seemed to be sound asleep he walked vigorously towards the Nile.—But he had not gone a quarter ofa league over the sand, when be heard the panther bound¬ ing after him, uttering at intervals along sharp cry. • Of a truth,' said he, ' her friendship is very flattering; it must be ber first love.' Before she came up, the Frenchman fell inlo one oflbose dangerous traps of luose sand, from which il is impossible to extri¬ cate one's self. The panthei" seized him by the collar, and with incredible strength broughi him to ths other side of the ditch at a single bound. 'My dear Mignonne!' e.xclaimed the soldier caressingherwilhenlhusidsm, • our friendship is for life or death.' He retraced his steps. Now that he bad a creature that loved him, to whom he could lalk it seemed as ifthe desert were peopled. Having made a signal flag of his shirt, he concluded to wait patiently forhuman suc¬ cor. It was his intention to havis watched during the nighi, but sleep overpowered him. When he awoke Mignonne was gone. He ascended the eminence to look lor her, and soon perceived her at a dis¬ tance clearing the desert, witb those long high bounds peculiar to her species. She arrived with bloody jaws, when receiv¬ ing his carasses she purred 4loud. and fix¬ ed har eyes upon him with eyen m Ofs fond¬ ness than usual. The soldier patted her neck, and talked to her as he would to a domestic an imal—' Ah, ah. Miss [ you have been eating some of the Maugrabine.— Ain't you ashamedl Nevermind—they are worse animals than you are. But please don't take a fancy to grind up a French¬ man. If you do, you won't have me to love you any more.' This singular animal was sn fond of ca¬ resses and play that if her companion sat many minutes wilhout noticing her, she would puther paw in bis lap to attract al¬ tention. Several days passed thus, Thc panther was always successful in her excursions for food, and always returned full of affection and joy; sha became used to all the Infleotions ofthe soldier's voice, and understood the expressions of his face. Sometimes he amuseij his weary hoifts by counting the spots oii her golden fur, and observing how beautifully they were sha¬ ded; she showed no displeasure even whon he held berby the tail to count the splendid white and black rings that glittered in the sunshine like precious stones. It was a pleasure to look upon the graceful outlines ofher form, the glassy smoothness of her neck, and tha majestic carriage of her head. She delighted bim most when she was in a frolic. Her e.ttreme gracefulness and agility as she glided swiflly along, jumped bounded, and rolled over and over, was truly surprising. When she was darting up the rooky eminence at her swiftest speed, she would stop suddenly and beau¬ tifully as tbe Frenchman called 'Mig¬ nonne.' One day a very large bird sailed through the air over their heads. In the desert any thing that has life is intensely interesting. The Frenchman quieted the panther lo watch the flight of the bird as he slowly and heavily fanned the air. In a few minutes the Sultana of the daasert began to growl. 'She is certainly jealous,' thought the sol¬ dier, as he looked at her fierce and glitter¬ ing eyes. They gazed intelligibly at each olher—and the proud coquette leaped as she felt his hand upon her head; her eyes flashed like lightning and she shut them hard. ' The creature must have a soul!' ex¬ claimed the Frenchman. This account was given me by the soldier himself, while I was admiring the docility ofthe powertul animai in the menagerie at Paris. ' I do not know ' continued the narrator, what I had done to displease Mignonne so much; or whelherlhe crea¬ ture was merely in sport; but she turned and snapped ber teeth at me and seized hold of my leg. She did it without vio¬ lence ; bul thinking she was about to de¬ vour me, I plunged my dagger into her neck. The poor creature rolled over, ut¬ tering a cry that froze my heart. Sho made no atlempt to revenge my blow, but looked mildly upon me in her dying ago¬ ny. I would have given all the world to have recalled her to life. It wasasif Ihad murdered a friend. Some French soldiers who discovered my signal, found me some hours afterwards, weeping by the side of her dead body. ' Ah, well,'- said he after a mournfiji si¬ lence, ' I have been in the wars of Germa¬ ny, Spain, Prussia and France, but I never have seen any thing that produced such sensations as the desert—oh, how beauti¬ ful it was!' What feelings did it excite' asked I. ' Feelings that are not to be spoken,' re¬ plied the soldier solemnly. 1 do not al¬ ways regret my cluster of palm trees and my panther; in the desert there is every¬ thing and there is nothing.' ' What do you mean by thatl' ¦I caanot tell,' said he impatiently- after a pause he added, ' God isthere with out man.' A HINT TO FARMERS. ,The greatest obstacle to the improve¬ ment of Agriciilture in New England is the propensity of the farme r^lhe mania I might well call it—to man more land than he can till to advantage. And it is thus that we see scattered over the country large tracis of steril, unproductive land, which,- under good cultivation, would yield boun¬ tiful and valuable crops. Not only the dic¬ tates of souiid philosophy, but numerous facts drawn from experience, are constant¬ ly and loudly calling upon thefarmerfrom every quarter to occupy a srriall farm'ant cultivate it inell, I wish that this admoni¬ tion could be thunderedi into the ears of the agricuiturcir.pbpblation of New Eng¬ land unlil.a cbmplete.revplutifjn should bo produceiin the fai-ming system. This great truth is already beginning to be understood in other countries, and is at¬ tended with corrfespopdingadvantages.— The densest population in.Europe may be fuund in-Flanderaaad Xiorabaidyiwherethe iaiid is divided idle small farms, and, being thoroughly tilled, produces abundant food for the inhabitants. And the experience of a quarterpf 8. century in France proves that by the occupation of the; country under small working farmers, the land \t produ¬ cing one-third mora food, and supporting a population one-third greater, than when it was possessed in large masses. The law is universal—itapplics to every country—that the secret of success in agri¬ culture consists in the thorough cultivanon of a. small piece of ground, which, well manured and well worked, yields up its treasure in prodigal profusion. In almost every part of Now England one capital er¬ ror runs through the whole system of farm¬ ing. A great deal of money is invested in land, anda very little moriey employed in the cultivation. And itis sad to see the owner of a large farm pride hiniself on the num- ber of acres which he possesses, and un dertake to cultivate the soil Withuut sufll cient means. Snch a man has been hap¬ pily compared to a merchant who expends all his capital in buildiDgforhtS'OWO nse a large roomy store, and is afterward seen gazing with complacency CD his bare walls and empty Shelves, He has chalked out to hiniself a hard lol and voluntarily enters on a state of servi¬ tude worse than Egyptian bondage. His work is nayer accemplisbed. He toils at all hours, and yet is never ahead of his work, and his work is never half done.— He has not time to accomplish any thing ihcroughly. His house is out of repair; his barn dilapidated; his cattle poor; his fences in ruins; his pasture overrun wilh bushes; and acres ofland whicb, under proper cullivation, might be made to yield a rich harvest, are but little rempved from barrenness, perhaps dotted with mullen, burdocks, thistlss, or filled with sorrels, white weed, and other noxious plants, which rqot out the grass mii eat up thc life of the soil, with'JUt afl'or4lng noufish- ment to man or beast. What a har'rassed, unhappy being must be the owner of sueh a.farm! IJe has no time for recreation op mental improye- ment. He is doomed to tho tredmill for life; with his spirits depressed, desponden¬ cy stamped upon his haggard lineaments, ahd the worm of discontent gnawing at his heart, wilh him thore ara no pleasant asso¬ ciations witb the ^ast; the present is full of anxiety, care, and hard labor, and a dark cloud rests upon Vcte future.

Such a man has little reason to pride himself on his extensive possessions; and, para4oxipal ?3 jt r^^y ^ppesf, ha would, in nine cases out of ten, add to his rieties as well as his enjoyment by giving away one half of them at least. He is, in the true sense of the word, miserably poor, in fact a slave; and, whan his eyes are opened to his real condition, it is no wonder that he is glad to emancipate himself, by sell¬ ing his farm fjr what he can get, and es¬ cape, post-haste,to Texas'or Iowa.—Sleep¬ er's ^griculltirct] .^dd^es^.

And life's letnpRSiuuas fftorai.
Here let n**. pauve awhile in muss
Above ihe warrior brave; To seat rnvvelf, ( gladly ctioose.
Upon iba warrior*i grave.
Tbia warrinr chief opprenion'i h-ind Could drive not from his home—
The leader of a fearlass band Ue wUhed these bllta to roans.
IiOOg will be remembered ba,
Thoufh on tbis hill hia grave, A chief auimig his tribe, aud free.
Ue could Qol'tw'a vlave.
Thoo^b wrangcd and rc&bed of bif land,
: Be still disdained to bow With servile fear, berieaih the hand, - That laid tbe warrior low.
llts buhting grounds are nnw no raore,
Tbe white man laid them waste— And atained theni with thr red man's gore.
Which stain will always lasl. Wbile Susquehanna's murmuring stream,
Will Inward thc Ocean nitt. A voice <*iU haunt him in Jii* dream,
-Aud chill lhe while man's soul.
As long as cornel the mnrning sun,
.. Or evening sun's decline— The while man csi^not gaze upon l!hiB spot and lay 'lis mine.
Year sReryenr mny roll away.
And ages go their round- E'en then iheir wrongs, frum day to day,
Will silU be banded down.
Tales of horror, sad and strange.
Their noblu youths they'll tPlI— Go youth's, your sires' wrnng arange,
Who bravely fighting fell.
.Oar huntiag grounds,'tis well perceived, The white man has run through —
Tbe streamlets whsre onr fathers lived, Have lost iheir music too.
The pale-face long, but vainly tried.
Tbe ted man to enslave; But rather wmild we ad have died,
And sank iuto thc grave.
Tbas Iheir hatred they implmt.
Deep in tlie youthful breast- It ripeoain lhe tender plant.

Wbea ta that long, long looked for liomt.
Toward the sunny south. Wbete once they all expect to rnam.
Endowed with lasiing youth,
Tbe mighty anui has gone tn chase
In nthcr bun'ing grounds. Where wigwam fires brighter blaze,
And far more game abounds. »".

WRITTEN AT ]Vri' MOTHER'S GRAVE.
BY GEORGE D. PRENTICE.
TKe trembling dew drops full Upon the shulltng flowers—htte souls at reil— Theatara ahme gloriously-^and ell,
Save me, is bUsL
Mother—I love ihy gnive! The violet, witb iia blossom blue and mild, • Wave* o'er iby head—when slmll it wave Above thy child ?
*Tis a.aweet fiower-ry^t must Its bright leaves to ihe coming tempest bow, Dear' moiher—'lis thine emblem—dust Kb on thy brow !
Apd if cnuld love In din- To leave unlaslod life's darlt, biiter streams, By thee, as erst in childhood, he.
And stiare thy dreams.
And mnstlUnger here To slain tho plumage of my sinless years. And mourn tho hopes lo childhouil dear With bitter tears i
Aye—must 1 linger here A lonely braoch npon a blasted tree. Whose last frail leaf, untimfciy sere.
Went down with thcc !
Oft from life's withered bower, III still communion with ihepast 1 turn. And nmsc on thte, the only flour
In memory's utn. And, when the evening pale, SoxvB like a mourner on the dim, blue wave, I atray to hear the night-wjnds watl
Aruund thy grave.
Where is thy spirit flown 7— I gaze abovci thy look is ima°ed ihora— 1 tittcQ-^and thy gentle tono
Is on the air.
Oh come—whUst here I press My brow apoR ihy grave-—and in those mild And tbrUiing tones of tenderness.
Bless, bless iby child!
Yea, bless thy weeping child, Ando*«r thy urn—rebgi-m's holiest shrine— Oh, give his spirit undeSted,
To blend with thine.
FRIENDSHIP OF A PANTHER ^

A SOLDIER IN THE DESERT.
DoRiNG the enterprising expedilion into Upper Egvpt,
Jnpe loldie
Gen^ Desaix, a provincial soldier, fell into the power of a tribe of Arabs, called Maugrabins, and w«s by them carried inlo the desert, be¬ yond the cataract of the Nile. In order to place a safe distance between themselves and the French army, the Maugrabins made a forced march and did not stop till night closed in. They encamped around a fiiuntaih aurrounded by palm trees. Nut sappo'sing their prisoner would attempt to escape,-.they contented themselves ^vith merely binding his bands; and af^r hav¬ ing fad their horses, and made their supper upon dates, they all of them slept soundly. At soon as the French prisoner was con¬ vinced of tbis fact, he began to £naw the cords that bound him, and soon regained the liberty of bis hands. . fie seized a car¬ bine, and took tbe precaution to provide faimself with some dry daltes, snd a little bag of grain, and armed with a scimetar, started off in the direction ot the French »rmy.
In his eagerness to arrive at a place of ntety, he urged the already wearied horse untif the generous animal fell down dead, and left his rider alone io the midst of the desert. JFor a long time the Frenchman walked on ,with the perseverance of a run¬ away slave, bul bc was at last compelled to stop. Tbe day was finished; notwithstand¬ ing the beauty and freshness of oriental nights, he did not feel strength enough to pursue his journey. Haviog reached a lit¬ tle cluster of palms, which had gladdened .{lis heart at a distance, he laid, bis head up- •on a stone and slept without taking any jrecaiition for his defence.
