Wish of telling the truth: under the cloak of
knowledge may be discovered envy, malice, and
all the malignant passions. All have their faults/
which if reported on the wrong tide mutt be very
injurious to the best of citizens ; and by a delign
ing and envious person the mod innocent and
.well-meant motives, ma, be conOru^d to the
greatell disadvantage. The motive of some in;
Wandering is to establish their own reputation in;
the ruin of others ; and those who endeavor, by
, darkening charters, to brighten their own,
Ought to be and generally are served like the viper
who gnawed the file, and fed, that although it is
frat, it is their own blood, i.
tered by. correspondence. After about eleven,
.years passed in this manner, one of the brothers
parried a beautiful woman. The jingle brother,:
who had been watching his opportunity of revenge
made his appearance very unexpectedly, on the.
wedding day, and desiring an iterview with the]
.married man, irta separate apartment, was noj
sooner seen than welcomed; the latter taking rtf
for granted that he came to be reconciled, and had;
. chosen this distinguished da, to render it more ac-f
eeptable. The brother thus addressed the bride-;
groom, ^Brother we have not foet since ouri
disagreement divided us, this day eleven years ;
J,canie now to remind you of the circomfiance
thus itrihing a poignard into the heart of the
bridegroom, who had just power to gain the a
partm^nrt of his bride who was then dancing with
a friend of her' hufbaneb—Scarcely could!' he ex
claim that he was murdered, 'ere he funk down
and expired at her feet ; and while the company
and' servants were employed about their friend
and matter, the assassin cooly mounted his horse
and made his escape.
from HYMN'S RECRUITING SERJEANT,

TO OLD BACHELORS.,
find the lord said, " his not good for man to be
'alone."
" For I. If you are for pleasure— Marry !
2. If you are for rosy health-^Marry I
3. And even if money be your objeft^Marry!
Now let's to the point, and prove these precious
truths. Draw near, ye bachelors of the witting
ear, while with the grey quill of experience,!
write
The PLEASURES of the MARRIED STATE.
' Believe me, citizen Bachelor, never man yet
received bis full allowance, beaded up ah'd run,
niQg over, of this life's joys, until it was meafored
out to him by the generous hand of a loving wife;
A man with half an eye, may fee that I am hot

SAY, peprfve youth, why heave tint sigh—
Why trembling Rands the tear of furrow 1
Wirt waiving day thy caret may fly,
And finiles and joy be thine to-morrow.
Does flighted love, oppress thy heart ?
Then route thee lad nor yield to sorrow,
What tho' your mistress chufe to part,
A kinder may be had to-morrow.
Has fortune frown'd and friendship fled,
These common ill# Shoo'd ne'er move sorrow,
For friend# by fortune's Smiles are led,
And both may come again To-MORKow.
Haft thou reli'd upon the great ?
No reason thus to grieve and sorrow:
They smile and promise— you must eat ;
Well happier Stars may ru^ To-Morrow.
Nor cares that vex, nor flighted love,
Nor fortune's frown, nor friendship hollow ;
Nor keen fufenfe long pain can prove,
To him who fondly trulls TO-MORROW,
To-Morrow is the balm of life—
The flay of Hope-Ahe dream of sorrow :
From mis'ry'shand it wrests the knife;'
Defyair alone, Should Shun To Morrow.

'' Speak evil of no Man."
; Among the many vices, to which human nature
Is prone, there is no one more prevalent or more
ealily imbibed by the unwary than the fashionable
one of (lander. This is the common topic of ma
„ circles, and generally listened to with eager
ness and avidity ; and remembered with that te
nacity, which is ever ready to propagate and ang.
ment. The motives of telling the foibles of a
neighbor inay be harmless, but the effeft is not so.
How often are the molt peaceable societies dis
turbed by thiq wicked popentity to tattling !—
faow often is the peace of families destroyed, and
friendship broken, by these peds of focietv !—
With every considerate person no motives of the
tattler wili have a more extensive view, than the
FRIEND haft thou neven hear'd old oceati roar;
When the black temped hover# big with fear—
Tempestuous dalh'd against the rocky Shore,
' Its hoarse resounding fills th' aftonilh'd ear ?
>REVENGE.
TWO brothers, on very flight occefion, quar-l
rolled, and, from being inmates, Separated houses,
neighborhood, and at length broke connexion,
Their alienation was neither Softened not embit-1
Or haft thou never heard loud thunders crack,
Swift Skim the lightnings 'long the liquid iky.
When Some vatt oak becomes the mighty wreck,
- In thousand fragments fetter'd far and nigh?
The whelp robb'd tygrefs haft thou never met ?
Nor trac'd the furies of her angry mien ?
Nor the fell lion, when with toils beset,
L His hideiras roarings heard—his eyeballs feeh ?
If not, friend come to me; my house displays -
All those and ev'ry monster more ; For there
Bulls bellow, dragons hits, the wild ass brays,
[ Owls hoop, frogs croak, & growls the ugly bear;
Drums, trumpets, hurricanes abound ; [ftrife ;

Fiends, furies, bell itfelf, may here be found,

TO REPUBLICANS. /
This work is designed to disseminate Truth /
mong the deceived and uninformed part of ]Z ur
fellow-citizens , to wipe off the mills of
from the eyes of those who are led aflra/by „
foes of the Rights of Man, and laymen to view
the designs, arts and intrigues of ^di characters
and to amuse and edify those uho have enlifled
under the banners of Repub&anifm, as defenders
, he ,berties of their gentry, against arbitrary
and unjust persecution./ Having already deceived
very liberal encouragement, the Proprietors flat
ter themselves that t^e undertaking will prove
fuccefsful, if patronized by you. whose handshave
been often outftretefed to fopport the foundation
of American freedom, against the intrigues of a
powerful aristocracy, who have endeavored by
mifreprefehtattyn, unconftitutlonal and improper
laws, large bodies of mercenary troops, &c. &c.
to subvert the firft principles of your government,
and render the Confutation useless, in order that
one more yconfiftent with their wishes, might be
reared up on its ruins. The characters and con
\duC tof all ranks and degrees of Citizens, will e
ver be refpeded; and nothing mail be admitted in
the pages of the Patriot, which may introduce
ei , he r,° public view, unless their purfhits evince a
difpolition to sap the platform of Republicanifro,
when, every measure will be taken to warn its
friends of the approaching danger, and all re
straint dispensed with, in order that the foes of
Colombia, may feel the lash of a vigilant and faith
ful Sentinel. Advertisements will be excluded^
unless of real importance to the Republican inter
est.
