^ddreji of a Felon to his Child, cn the morning of
\ his execution.
POOR Babe, that thro' this darkfome grate
Survey'll yon crowed with curipus eye.
If then wouldst learn why thus they wa.t-A
Know 'tis to fee your father die.
To fee bow I'fhat death fhal bear
They deem for crimes like mine most At §
grimes urg'd by want, which many there
Were nevet tempted to commit !
A death, Tweet innocent, for which.
Thoult be one day, Alas, revil'd,
For with my guilt, the rude of speech.
Too often will reproach my child.
Poor outcast, whither canst thou turn.
Thy future fate adds pangs to mine,
1 mult my own offences mourn,
And fear, devoted babe for thine.
For all thou canst from me receive
Is but a legacy of Ihame,
And Ihouldft thou up to manhood grbw,
Thoult learn to curse thy Father's name.
Ah fee they come to take me hence,
My in ur'd precious boy adieu !
O cruel world, for my offence,
Wilt thou this child with horror view.'

Mr. John Adams in his letter to Mr. S.

many nobles may there be in Salem, and in

By his most devout Majerty, the king, or,
We, by the grace God, king of N. Hamp

Great titles, great blessings ! Yankies, do
they tickle your ears ? ate you not pleased
with the pidure of a permanent despotism,
with Landing armies, navies, Ramp a&s, se
dition laws, bartiles, national blessings, alias
debts, land arid house taxes, and many oth
er fine things, the inseparable attendants in
the retinue of aristocracy ? You answered
these queries, by hurling from the air built
throne, the man and his minions, who
fought to enslave you,

Mr. Latimer has thought more certain on
the dodrine of chances to secure a sum of
money by his resignation of office, than to
tifk being removed—and behold Levi Hol
lingsworth, the loyal Levi, fays he is turn
ed out. It is only a few days since Levi
advised Mr. Latimer not to resign, but to
wait for the honor of removal—if Levi had
only inferred him on the rifque—Mr. Lati
mer might have Raid in office a few days
longer. — — ~
What evidence is there that the celebra
ted Thomas Paine (now in France) has been
invited to this country by the president?
And what if he has been ?— Thomas Paine
needs no invitation to come and resume the
citizenfllip which America in the time of
her perils was proud to bestow Upon him ;
in the time of her peril, when the banners
of fate were thickening round her ; when
he was one of the brightest luminaries to
guide to cheer and to save her. We hope
that Thomas jefferfon is the warm, cincere
and firm friend of and who is the admira
tion of mankind, and whose name will be
handed down with refpea to the latest pos
terity. [ B Rep. Gazetteer.)
