e.l his bed of leaves and every
dawning day saw him rise refreshed
and cheerful. In a short time he
discovered that he was happy-Ihe
discovery astonished him. He was
insolated-an outcast-depending on
the spontaneous products Of the earth
for sustenance, and only sheltered
from the inclemency of the weather,
by cabin, over which the den OF
the wild beast possessed many adj
vantages.-Under such circumstan-
ces, that he could be happy, was TO
him incomprehensible. After mus.
ing some time on the strangeness
of the fact, he found out all the mise.
rics of his pass life were TO be impu-
ted to himself; that they arose from
his own restlessness and ambition ;
and that the true philosophers stone,
which converts every thing it touches
into gold, the real source of all hu-
man happiness is Contentmenf.

The MOTHER TO HER CHILD
Welcome thou little dimpled stranger,
o welcome to my fond embrace
Thou sweet reward of pain and danger,
Still let me press thy cherub face.
Dear source OF many mingled feeling;
How did dread, yet wish thee here
While hope and fear by turns prevailing,
Served but to render thee more dear.
How gowed my heart with exultation,
Sol the anxious seat of care,
When first thy voice of supplcaton,
Stole sweetly on thy mothers ear.
What words could speak the bright emotion
That sparkled in thy fathers eye,
When to his fond pateral bosom
He fondly 2ress'd the darling boy
Oh that thou may'st, sweet babe, inherit
Each virtue of his heart most dear;
His manly grace, his matchess merit,
Is still thy doating mothers prayer.
While on thy downy couch reposing.
To watch thee is my tender toll
mark thy sweet blue eyes unclosing,
fondly hail thy cherub smile.
Smile on, sweet babe, unknown to sorrow,
Still brightly beam thy heavenly eye;
and may'st the dawn of ev'ry morrow
Shed blessings on my darling boy.

BRITISH DESERTFRS.

On Friday mornlng last, At O'clock,
chief ius;ice Scott attended at the court
house 10 receive the return of the sheriff to
habeas coypus issued yesterday by the
chief Justice to bring before him seven per
.ons~ ~ho had a!ledsed in petition, that
they were Illegally confined; by the return
TO the habea, cortus it appeared that these
persons were arrested in virtue CT written
order from the British consul, residing in
this city, as deserters from the British fri
gate L'Africaine, then lying at Annapolis.
The chief justice sent to Mr.. Wood, the
British consul, at half past O'clock this
morning, to request his at,endance-An
immense croud of people filed the court
house, taking possession of the jury boxes,
the bar ano the judges seat, to the very e.
bows of,he chief justice.
When MIR. Wood appeared in court, it
was stated to the chief justice, that he
wished his counsel might be sent for, and
two gentlemen Ct the bar were named whom
he wished to consult the council for the
prisoners urged that they should be inme-
diately discharged; that even admitting
them to be tleserters from British vessel
and British suhjrcts, no person whatever
could have right in this country 70 arrss,
or detain them for that cause; the chief
Justice however, sent for one of the counsel
named by the consul, who Immediately at
tended, and when informed by the consul
OF the reason for requesting his attendance,
he stated to the court that he was engaged
in case of considerable importance in tie
district court then sitting, in which the
other counsel was also engaged, (which would
necessarily prevent them from an immedi-
ate investigation of the question, whether
the prisoners could be lawfully detained
under the authority of the consul that he
perceived the hGbeas corpus had been grant
ed without any affidavit as to the illegal
confinement OF the prisoners, and under
stood that objections were made to the tor
mality of the order under which the arrest
had been made but as the prisoners were
now before the chief justice, who had tull
power to enquire into the circumstances and
discharge, admit to bail, or recomnit them,
as he might judge to be proper as the case
was o: great public Importance, and the
detention of the prisoners 70, few hours
would not be attended with much inconve-
nience; he therefore requested the chief
justice would consent to hear the counsel OF
the British consul in the afternoon of the
same day, and defer his decision until that
time. The chief justice stated, that the
opinion of the secretary Of state had salts
fled him, that deserters from British yes
sells ought not to be arrested or detained un-
