PATRIOTIC EFFUSION.
B) Gen.'RcBEUT Howl.
MARK ! hark ! sweet lass, the trumpet sounds,
Tis honor calls war ;
Now love I leave, perhaps for wounds,
And beauty for a scar.
But, ah ! suppress those rising sigh^,
Ah ! check that falling tear;'
Lest soft distress, from lovely eyes,
Create a new-born fear.
My life to fame devoted was,
Before my fairl knew ; ,
And if I now desert her cause,
Shall I be worthy You-?
It is not Fame alone invites,
Tho' Fame this bosom warms:
Mv country's violated rights
Impel n^ soul to arms.'
EXPOSURE OF PERSONS FOUND DEAD.
^ The establishment of a new Morgue, (a place
where persons found dead are exposed at Paris) is
finished. The inconveniencies of the former depot,
the reproach of all travellers, have entirely disap
peared in the new one, constructed according to the
plan of the Prefects of Police, and of the depart
ment of the Seine. Three large rooms are now
designed for this establishment. The first is desti
ned to exposition, where the corpses will be exposed
separately upon brack marble tables, and may be
seen from the exterior, through the windows. The
second is consecrated to the opening of those bo
dies, which aVe to be dissected, or undergo some o
peratkn^or verification , and the third is destined
for the deposit of effects, and of the coffins in which
they are to be carried to their burial places. On
the first day these rooms were opened, ninecorpses
were exposed of persons who had committed suicide,
either by drowning or shooting themselves. Among
them Was the bedy of a young girl, not above 16,
whose perfect form might rival that of Venus de
Medicis.

THE INDUSTRIOUS ROMAN.
,f AN industrious Roman, named Cresin, who livedo
at'a more plentiful rate, ynd had better crops than
hi.rneighbours who lived on the same soil, was ac
cused by the poorer sort, that he enchanted his
grounds, fields and g%dtn^ ^r otherwise, shift they
"it is impossible he stould have a more plentiful in
crease than we have, who sow the same seed, and
employ the same grpund, and yet live in extreme
poverty." Cresin made but a short defence for
himself, and that was in shewing an able bodied
daughter, inured to pains arid labour, and all his
carts, plows, oxen, and utensils of husbandry ';
saying, “ Here, noble judges, are all, the magical
arts and ei*:hantmynts used by Cresin ; and if m:-
ncighbours and accusers would take the same
care and pains in employing these creatures anr
implements that my daughter and I do, they might
have the same increase, and live as well ; bu
they must not expect that sloth and idleness wil
procure them riches."

The Fountains arc covered witefnow as in th<'

fallen down or been carried away by the overflows
of the rivers, the water not only penetrated Intc
