REPUBLICAN SONG,
Mi a late entertainment at Portsmouth.
BY J. WENTWORTH, ESQ.
T*Birt-Rural Felicity.
WHEN Liberty sprang from the loins of
her mother,

She fix'd on our land, you'll not find such an

Columbia's Plains, where her offspring
She wreftted & struggled with tory malignity,
Beat down the tyrant, o'erpower'd the foe:
Comefoe ear Nation':felicit,,
Trub heart: aadh^ bottom: republican:foo^w.
The Tories are ftriviog in vain to divide us,
To save their last hopes in a defpetate cause,
They fain would persuade us " we are our
worst enemies ;".
Orator Morris will beg as to pa^f^ !
But Liberty's force over tory malignity
Beats down the cpfoti, o'erpowers the foe:
Cems ju, etc.
Our wives and cur churches they said were in
danger, [prevail;
That daggers, and murders too, soon would
Republican virtue to them is a ftrangef,^
The tories are fide of the federal tale ;
Their lies, their alarms, flow from tory ma

Truth has appear'd and confronted the

Our leaders and statesmen alike we admire,
Confuting our welfare wi'h Patriot glow ;
Our Jefferfon lives ! tried by seven times fire,
As thfyureft of gold so his value we know:
But rancour & vice flow from tory malignity,
Truth has appear'd and confronted the foe.
Come faour Nation's felicity, %
True hearts and jeund bottoms republicans Ifow.
A Monstrous Eater 1
• The following fngular account of a
voracious Eater, is extraElech as dee
scribed b, Citizen Percy.
" Ai YOUTHin the neigh
fjLborhood of Lyons, nam
ed Tarare, who in his early years,
had joined a Company of Tum
blers, made it his study to (wal
low pebbleftones, and immode
rately large pieces of the worst
° r ftefti, baskets full of apples and
pears, Knives and even living
animals. Strong fits and most
dismal pains of the cholic were
insufficient to cure him of a cul
tom, which was now become ha
bitual to him. Having been'
forced to enter into one of the
battalions of the Rhine army, in
the recent war, he (elected in a
moving hospital, those viands
which he could not do without.
The surplus of the kitchen, the
remnants of the allowances
which had been distributed, the
portions which had been reject
ed, and the stinking meat, were
not fufficient for him ; often
would he contend with the vilest
animils for their fodder ; he was
always in chafe of cats, dogs &
snakes, which he devoured alive.
Threats or violence was employ
ed to drive him from the apart
ment where the dead bodies
were deposited, and from the
places where the blood taken
from patients was left to stand.
In vain endeavours were made to
cure him, by alternately giving
him fat substances, acids, opium
and even the nux vomica. The
disappearance of a child 16
months old, having created hors
tibia fulpicions of him, he took
to flight.—But in the 6th year,
tie entered the hospital at Ver-
Ifailles, in a consumptive state,
Iwhich had succeeded hisfright
ful voracioufuels, and as he laid,
was occasioned by his swallow
ing a silver fork, which stuck in
Ais bowels. He loon after-
wards died. Tarare was small,
(lender, and feeble ; in the cast
of his countenance, there was
I nothing that relembled savage
- After sassing, the (kin of
;his belly might be drawn,fo as
I nearly to cover his whole body ;
and when satiated, tie had a
dropfieal appearance ; colums of
;thick vapours issued from his
mouth ; his whole body (team
ed ; the sweat ran in torrents
from his head ; and like many
of the carniverous animals, he
fell asleep in order to digest his
food.
NEW INVENTION.
Baltimore^ Nov. j,
Mr. Voight, Chief Coiner in the
mint of the United States, has
invented an engine for the turn
ing of screws of any given diam
eter and of any number of threads
to an inch. This invention was
firft designed for cutting fufees
for watches, so as uniformly to
adjust tffem to the length of the
main Ipring —a thing hitherto
very difficult in practice, and
without which it is impossible a
watch can keep regular time By
the aid of this machine a perlon
of common mechanical abilities,
and without any knowledge of
mathematics, may adjust the fu
fee to the spring with the great
est exaftnefs—or turn metalic
cyllinders Ind cones of any
length or diameter, to a mathe
matical certainty.
We understand that Mr. V.
from patriotic principles, has no
intention of obtaining a patent;
but to leave it open to his fellow
citizens.
