- BEAUTY.
The W:nd parsed over it, and it it gone.
I s?w a dew drop, cool s'd clear,
Dance on a myrtle spray,
Fan colours deck's the lucid tear,
Like I hose which gleam anl disappear,
When shown * and sunbeams play.
Sol cast athwart a glance severe,
And scortch’d the pearl away.
High on a slender, pofoshed stem
A fragrant lily grew ;
On the pure petal % many a gem
Glittered a native <k.r cm
Of healthy n.onm.g dew ;
A blast of lingering winter came,
And snapp’d the stem in two.
Fairer than morning’s early tear,
Or lilies snowy Moont,
Shines beauty in its vernal year ;
Bright, sparkling, fascinating, clear,
G.»y, thoughile»s of its doom ;
Death tneathes a sudden poison near,
And sweeps it to the tomb !
“ IVhai can a Young Lassie do with cn
Old Man 7"
BY ROBERT BURNS.
What can a young lassie, what shall a young
lassie ?
What can a young lassie do with an old
man ?
Bad luck on the penny that tempted my
mother
To sell her poor Jenny for silver and
land.
He’s always complaining from morning to
evening.
He coughs and he staggers the weary
daylong;
He’s stupid and dozing, his blood it is fro*
zen
Oh, dreary’s the night with a crazy old
man.
He hums and he hankers hi frets and lie
cankers,
I never can please him do all that I
can :
He’s peaviah and jealous of all the young
fellows :
Bad luck on the day I met with an ol J
man.
My old auntie Katy upon rtie takes pity,
I’ll do my endeavours to follow her plan ;
I’ll cross him and wrack him until 1 iatart
break him
And then hi* old bras* will b\e me a new
pan.

" I* r*.' this written in the book of Jarher ?”
Frequent reference is made in the Old
Testament to books not now extant. In the
21at chap, of Number^ w* are referred to
“ ti,e book of the wars of the Lord and
in the Chronicles we read of the books of
Samuel the seer, of Nathan the prophet, of
God the fleer; as also of the prophecy of
Ahijah the Shtlonite, aud the visions of
Idtlo the seer. From these refefencse, to
gctlitr with the verse from the book of
Joshua, nuoted above as a text, s *ne have
taken occasion to speak reproachfully, and
aud pretences hate been made to doubt the
authenticity of Scripture on this account —
They will argue thus—four Bible refers us
to books for farther testimony which are not
to he found. The sacred Canon is therefore
me inplrie ; nor can vve consent to receive
that system of doctrines which you say is
thei e contained ; because, couid those books
he found t hey might alter the system mate
iiioly. bucli are of tlie objections
w -iich men start against sciipture tiuth, in
order to weaken its force, and if posaibie to
Mitie the convictions of their own minds ;
Lut these very circumstances whert viewed
through another medium rather a* rve to
strengthen the faith of the believer, and
add fre»h testimony for the divine origin of
the B*h!e. The wilting* referred to were
piobubly annals of those times, where all
tha little circumstances of those revolutions
were recorded tor the information of the
generations immediately following, riiey
('.wm cumaui .u a minute account of the
• ruv chi tit rough t i itr wildvrnessj tue entrance
IIKO Canaan, the might and valor of Joshua,
ot David, and of Solomon. But like all oth
er human contrivances they hate sunk to
oblivion with »he lumber of ages, and aie as
c••’tipleuly lost though tiiey ne’er had
been. Not so with that holy word of inspi
ration which is able to make man wise unto
a *i\aiion* Amid the shaking of the nations,
and the contentions ot die world , amid the
obscurity of this most dark and barbarous
ages ; amici ait the wrath of wicred men
and devils, the Iloty Scriptures have been
preserved entire by an invisible hand, and
have burst like a sunbeam on tjie benighted
inhabitants of the world. This book of
/asher was probably written in the tune i f
Joshua, and tor ought we can see stood as
tair a chance ot making its way u> posterity
as any book then extant ; but no, the honor
of G»»d among men was concerned in the
preservation ot those works written under
the immediate inspiration of the Holy Spir

Fram tht Alexandria Gazette,
J The New.Orleans CiileCtor. ,
When Barnabas Bidwell was de
tected in peculation and forgerv feme I
of the Bolton paper: feemed deftrous
of excufing or palliating his conduct, j
by charging the federalifts with fim j
ilar criminality ; and it was triumph
antly declared that Brown, the col- j
leCtor at New Orleans, was a fedei
alift. Brown is, and has been, not
merely a democrat, but is charaCter
ifed by thofe who knew him well, as a j
rank jackobin,
Henry Brown, brother to William,
the late collector, was a federaiilt :
hence it is pofiible that the declara
tion of William's being fo, arofe frem '
confounding the brothets.
Brown is now in Wafhington. ]
There is a humourous ftory told of
the Virginian through whole inltru-]
mentality Brown was detcCted. Iti
is faid that the Virginian, meeting
Brown in London, accofted him with
“I know you, Mr. Brown you are
the late New-Orleans collector; and
if you will not pay me well for filence
I will inform againft you.” After
fome converfaticn, Brown agreed to
give him 2000 dollars for his faithful
taciturnity. immediately after, the
Virginian goes to Mr. Pinkney ; af
fures him he knows where Brown
is ; and offers, for 2000 dollars to
enable Mr Pinkney to fecure him.
Mr. Pinkney agreed, and Biown was
arrefted at the theatre. On condi
tion of his freedom, Brown reftored
all the money he had taken, except
ing a few thouCmd dollars; and yiel
ded to the U. S. the property he had
left in New-Orleans, , fufficient to
prevent any lofs Vo the national trea
sury. We vouch not for the authen
ticity of the above : but it comes from
fuch authority that we give credit
to it.
Progrefs of democracy in Pennfylva
nia.—“ A perfon by the name of
Whelen, who keeps a grocery Itore
at the corner of Fourth and Chefnut
; ftrcets, was accufed of receiving fto
len goods ; he denied the fact} the
houf'e v $ fcarched and the goods
were round in his pofleffion j he
was profecutcd, conviddcd and fcn
ttfnced to hard labour ; but he was
one of the fupporters of Governor
Snyder—and he was no fooner fet
to faw marble in the penitentiary,
than the particular frisnds, of the ex
ecutive of Pennfylvania were lecn in
motion, in fearch of the jury with a
view to prevail upon them to recom
mend this receiver of ffolen goods
for a pardon.
Signatures of the officers of Sny
der’s appointment were procured,
and an exprefs mandatory for a par
don wasfentto Lancatler, which re
turned with pardon in 24 hours ;
and in two days after his conviction,
this impudent thief was feen in the
public ftreets braving the public,
v.hofe laws he had trampled on.

While Capt. Hull Was on fliers zt

Morgan and Rogers two midfhipmen,
\ between whom a duel took plac. at
that timeas mentioned i:» the pipers,
and their two feconds—the refult of
1 the duel it is known was the death of
Rogers, and Morgan wounded—the
dead body was the fame evening car
ried on hoard the Frigate, and tlie
next day with the ufual ceremonies
buried on fhore, whiic the procefTioti
of boats for this purpofe were moving
towards the fliorc, a man fell from
the mail head of the frigate aud was
killed, in a quarter of an hour after
wards anothor fell from the fame
place and was fo hurt that he died
the next day * while they were low
eriRg this wounded man into the
cock pit, another fell backward into
the cock pit and badiy fractured hi*

while ihe was going hp the bay at
the rate of ten knots an hour, a mid
fhipman fell overboard and was
drowned, while the boats were low

Item boat with a pendant and three
men in it was capfized and they wero
all immediately plunged into the wa

ficulty refeued by the fur rounding
boats.
Mr. Ogilvy, a Scottifti clergyman,
