HARK ! from the crows the earthconvulsing
sound,
Descending with prophetic swell !
Burst in ten thousand thunderson astonished hell 1
Angelic voice ! abiding soft and clear,
It met the bending seraph's ravish'd ear,
Swift through the skies th' immortal accents ran,
And Heaven, exulting, hail'd the new-born man.
So erst while stretch'd o'er nature's wide domain,
Unpeopled darkness held her ebon reign. #
When thro' the gloom creative radiance flew,
And call'd to birth distinct each blended hue ;
Beam'd on the realms where Beauty slumb'nng
lay,
And woke her various graces into day—
O'er the wide concave swelled angelic lays, @
And perfect nature breath'd harmonious praise—
Nor less the praise that o'er redemption reign'd :
Tills sang a world created, that a world regain d
Fir'd by the sound, see men of humbler clay
Lift their bold vision to immortal day ;
Hail in life's sunset, more than life inspires,
And cry tis finish'd ! as the world retires.,
Yes, such the joy, blest man, when all is o'er
Os pangs and tears that earth's rude climate bore ,
When the last stream of day deserts the sky,
And thund'ring millions shout their maker nigh ;
Tis o'er ! the God of heav'n and earth proclaims,
And earth and heav'n are wrapt in instant flames.
'Tis o'er ! triumphant Hope exulting cries,
And spring indignant to her native skies,
New-York. Lodintc
It is observed, that though the Emperor of the
French has created so m^ny grand arches, they can?
not be expected to have much stability without a
sufficient number of Peere. Lon.fiaji.
" Our army and fleet," fay the French, “ electrified by
the g-cius of one great man, have loft all diflin&ions
You Ire 3 driven at the topma/hbead while afailor is clean
ing b^%" There ie nothing very terrible in all this ;
fioce, if true, it merely proves that the genius of one great
man has put every thing out of its proper place—a work
which the French Revolutionist have often performed be
fore in the civil department. „„.

The late Snow Storm, we understand, has done much in
jury to the orchards, in every part of the country. In Bar-
Aat and Danville, Angle orchards were injured to the a
mount of 300 dollars. It is estimated there was a fall of be
tween two and three feet of snow.

a ME SAID, IT IS FIMSHRD ! AWHP
DO WED HIS HEAD. AND GAVE UP TH^
GHOST." St. John, Chap. 13, v. 30,
Dr. Johnson.—When Dr. Percy first pursued
his Collection of ancient English ballads, pernaps he
was too lavish in commendation of the beautuul
simplicity and poetic merit he supposed himself to
discover in them. Thu cxrcumftance
Johnson to observe to him one evening at Miss Key
nold's tea table, that he could rhyme as wed, mm
as elegantly, in common narrative ^ conversa
tion. For instance, says he.
As with my hat upon my head
I walk'd along the strand,
I there did meet another man
With his hat in his hand.
And thus he preceded through several more etan
#l3, till the reverend critic cried out for quarter<
Or to render such poetry subservient to By own
immediate use,
Yet hear, alas ! this mournful truth,
Nor here it with a frown,
Thou canst not make the tea 0 fast
As I can gulp it down.
Nor fear that I, my gentle maid,
Shall long detain the cup,
When once unto the bottom I
Have drank the liquor up.
I therefore pray thee, Renny dear.
That you will give to me,
With cream and sugar soften'd wall,
Another dish of tea.
TO MORROW.
SEE, where the falling da,
In silence melts away,„
Behind the Western hills withdrawn ;
Her fires are quench'd, her beauty fled,
With blushes all her face overspread,
As conscious she had ill fulfill d
The promise of the dawn !
Another morning soon shall rise,
Another day salute our eyes,
As smiling, and as fa. >,
And raake as many promiw. ,
But do not thou
The tale believe ,
They're sisters all,
And ail deceive.

Just received a fresh supply of
Dr. Cooley's Fegetab'e Elixir,
OR COUGH DROPS.
Secured to him by the [United States] Patent.
A REMEL Y far exceeding every other used, for Con
fu%nons, Afthraus, Spitting of Blood, Coughs,
Shortness cl Breath, and every other species of disease to
which that organ cf life, the lungs, is perpetually exposed
Complaints of the lungs have always been considered the
Opptobria Medititx (or reproach to the ar: of phytic) and
it has long been a defideratura in MedipalScience that a remtt
edy might be devised, which ihould check this wide outle
to human life. The many thrufinds which yearly fall afa
crifice to this insidious disease, Phthifa Pvlraonalis, or Con
fumption of the Lungs, has ever since my acqSiintance with ,
diseases (which is ahnoft thirty year.) Io excited my corn-'
miferttion, theta large fharfof roy time has been employ
ed in iavc&ge&g dsAfi^&mS ^QUifchfarihty-~^
most unremicted attention and couftaut refenreb, I have the
happiness to proclaim to the world, that iu my Vegetable
Elixir, a speedy, fafe and effectual remedy is generally to
had. It is ncedlefs for me to dwell too long or the praises
of this medicine; those who ofc it will immediately be con
vinced of its fupcrior virtues, in dispelling every difirefliog
fyw.ptom in the complaints above enumerated; thefr hec
tical heats will in a few days be allayed, the nig! t sweats
will disappear, the cough diminish rapidly, and the patients
who previous to the ule of this medicine were saucing for
breath, and fall approaching to dhTolutios, will find them- 1
selves refuscicateJ in the moftunexpected manner. So won
derful has been their relief, that to erpreG their gratitude,
frequent felicitations have been made to have their teftimo
anics made public of the unr:valkd virtues of this medkjne
—thole who experience its benign and filntary effects hr
A ffiort trial, will need no other recommendation.
1; is not pretended that this medicine will cure every dfi
eafe to which fullering humanity is liable, a- is the case
with muff patent medicines: diseases which are as com
pletely opposite as an acid and an alkali, they will aff^are i
will to be cured by one simple remedy. Such weak impoti
pions have with much propriety brought most patent drug
nro disrepute—Bae tn: Vegetable Elixir is calculated for
one clafa of diseases only, v.z thole to which the lain, arc
exrofed, and I need m t observe that they terminate in „a-A
fumptions—The rrecurfors or harbingers of this hitherto
intractable malady (until the difeovery of the Vegetable
Elirc) are Spitting o: E:ood, Pains in the Break and Sides,
Coughs, Difficulty in B. caching, and a great number of
complaints, which {lender and delicate couftitutions are so
freqaeauv labou ring under, which if attended to immedi
ately on tir.tf cummrucernent, will easily be obviated , •and
those in the hft ftagts will be much alleviated, aqd many
of them effectual:, redue. .. j
