1 ,OOK. lovely maid, on yonder flow'r,
And fee that busy fly,
Maae for th’ enjoyment of an hour,*'
And only born to die.
See, round the.rofe he lightly moves.
And wautoai in the fun.
His little life in jay improves.
And lives, before ’cis gone.
From this inftin&ive wisdom, learn,
The prefect hoar to prize ;
Nor leave to-day’s Supreme concern,
’Till morrow’s morn arise,
Say, loveljeft fair, canst thbu divine
That morrow’s hidden doom ?’
Know’ll thou, if cloudlet's skies willjhiae,
Or heaven be wrapp’d in gloom ?
The present joys are all we claim j
The past are in the tomb ;
And like the poet’s dream ol fame,
The future never come.
Fond man rhe trifle of a day,
No longer then, fair maid, delay
The promis’d scenes of bliss;
Nor idly give another day.
The joys align’d to this.-
If then my breast can soothe thy care#
Twill now that care.allay ;
If joy this hand can yield, my fair,
’Twill yield tha 1 . joy to-day.

Nor knows his momentary play
Mail end before ’us night.
Quit then,oh quit I thou lovely maid.
Thy baihful, virgin pride ;

The bands, to morrow, tieo ’
The pore fl joys (hall be our own,
Tiifft c.’er to man were gtv’n ;
And those bright femes, dir eat th begun,
Slwil brighter shine in heav’n.

APT. Howel, of the Samp
lon, lately from Canton, arrived
at Philadelphia, has brought o
ver a paper kite, which differs
chiefly from ours, in that it car
ries with it an Eolian harp.
The principles of the Eolian
harp are well known. It is Am
ply a cat gut flring, flretehed a
long any crevice through which
the air rushes. According to the
degree of tension amifize of this
flring, vibrating by the force of
the ruffling wind.it produces dif
ferent notes, which also vary in
filings of the lame lize and ten
sion, when ft ruck by the wind
by a greater or a lefler degree of
force ; but always in luch a man
ner, as to produce perfect har
mony. 7he ft ring of the Eoli
an harp, in this kite, is fixed
from the head to the tnd of the
point of it, so as to be but a small
diftanc from the back-bone.-—
Two holes, one rather larger
than the other, are made along<
the back bone in the kite, through
which the air when the kite is
raised, strikes the firing, and
produces the musical effedt of the
Eolian harp. Instead of a cat
gut firing a fibre of cane is made
life of in this infiance.Captain
Howel fays he has frequently
been witness to the eft'edlof this
musical play thing, and the
iii fl time he heard it, it flruck
him with surprise. He heard and
could fee nothing that appeared
to have connexion with the found.
Such muflc from the clouds,muft
have appeared extraordinary ; &
it might as easily be supposed to
come, thence as to proceed from
a child’s paper kite.
