"To soar aloft on Fancy's wing." THE AMERICAN CAPTIVE IN TRIPOLI.
By RAY, An American Captive. YE lurid domes! whose tott'ring columns stand, Marks of the despot's desolating hand; Whose weed-grown roofs, and mould'ring arches flow, The curse of tyranny, a nation's woe; In every ruin, every pile, I find A warning lesson to a thoughtful mind, Your dreary cells expressive silence break, Echo to groans, and eloquently speak: The christian's blood cements the domes he rears, This clay was moisten'd with the christian's tears. Pale at their walls, a prisoner oft has lain, Felt the keen scourge, and worn the ruthless chain; While scorching foes encreasing torture pour, 'Till the poor victim feels, alas! no more, E'en here thy sons, America, are found, Lock'd in foul prisons, and in fetters bound.'
Heavens! what times! must free Columbians bow, Before you tincl'd tyrant's murky brow! Cringe to a power, which death and rapine crown? Smile at a smile, and tremble at a frown! Kneel at a throne, its clemency implore, Enrich'd by spoils, and stain'd with human gore? To pirate fiends obsequious homage pay; Their preference honor, and their will obey? Endure the lash, the ponderous load sustain! Suppress their anger, and their threats refrain! Leave a rich clime? explore the treacherous waves, The sport of miscreants and the slave of slaves?
Heavens! at the sight, each patriot captive glows With virtuous hatred on his country's foes; At every blow, indignant passions rise, And vengeance flashes from resentful eyes. But heaven's just! no man's bewild'rd mind, To the dark ways of providence is blind; Else, why are some ordain'd above the rest? Or villains treated better than the best? Why martyrd virtue! hang thy injur'd head? Why liv'd an Arnold, while a Warren bled? Earth's murderers triumph, proud oppressors reign, While patriots bleed, and captives sigh in vain. Yet stumbling justice soon shall wake and show; Her sword unsheath'd, and bend the hostile Columbia's generous hover round each son, And thy blest shade, immortal Washington; Unite to guard us from nefarious foes, And heaven defend, and angels interpose; Devoted tyrants cause our wrath to feel, And Bays and Baillows in submission kneel, Man's equal right, sweet liberty, restore, And despotism fall, to rise no more.
"Trifles, light as air." Lord Frankland, the author of the play called the Marriage Night, was chosen very young to sit in Parliament; and when he was first elected, some of the members opposed his admission, urging that he had not sowed all his wild oats. "Then (replied he) it will be the best way to sow the remainder in the House, where there are so many geese to pick them up."
NOTICE. THE subscriber being about to leave the State, & expecting to be absent some Months, most earnestly requests all those who are indebted to him to make immediate application to William H. Richardson, & Thomas Barlow, Students of Medicine for settlement, who at this time reside in Lexington, and are authorized to receipt for all monies paid on my account. It is hoped that no compulsory measures will be necessary. It is however expected that prompt payments will be made. W. WARFIELD. November 5th, 1804.

UNGRATEFULLY abandoned the service of the subscriber, on the 11th ult. by the injudicious counsel of some plebeians, a Negro Woman named CILLA, about 23 years of age, pock-marked, and rather of an auburn complexion, of about an ordinary stature, stout and well made, and has a cicatrice on the inside of her right arm, below the elbow, speaks broken English, and has a smattering of the German language, and when she went away was far advanced in pregnancy; she was born and raised to adolescence, in the state of New-York, from thence emigrated to South Carolina, at which place I became her proprietor last spring, and I suspect from some of her innuendoes, previous to her desertion, that she will endeavour to get to one or the other of those states, but rather suppose to the latter. It is probable that she has procured a pass in my name, from some of those rabble who egged her to excitement. Any person arresting said Negro and bringing or safely conveying her to me, or incarcinating her so that I get her, and communicating the same through the medium of a letter, by Mail, lodged in the Lexington Post Office, shall be amply compensated, by me, living at Boone's Station, 10 miles East of Lexington.

WHEREAS a number of the officers of the late Revolutionary Army, were unfortunate enough to locate their claims in a tract of country, since found to be comprised within the Indian claims. This is therefore to give notice, that application is intended to be made, in the name of all those who will redress, by petition to Congress; and little doubt is entertained, from the hardship of the case, but other land will be substituted. The agent who undertakes the management of the business, asks, as compensation, one third only, of what land is actually located and ultimately saved, he being at all expense to patenting the land. All who will, upon these terms, their claims to be attended to, are requested to write forthwith, to Thomas Bodley, of Lexington, who will communicate with such agent.
