FOUND IN BowER FACING THE SOUTH
Soft Cherub OF the southern breeze,
On thou whose voice love to hear,
When, lingering through the rustling trees,
When heightened sighs it sooths mine ear
OH thou whose fond embrace to meet,
The young Spring al enamor'd flies,
And robs thee of thy kisses sweet,
And pours on thee her laughing eyes
Thou at whose call the light fys start,
That silent in their hidden bower
Lie pencing with tenderest art
The blossom thin, and infant hower
Soft Cherub Of the southern breeze,
oh J if Alright tune the reed
Which thus thine ear would hope to please,
BY simple lay and humble need
And If Alright with anxious zeal,
My wiling hands this Bower have made,
Still let this Bower thine Influence feel
And be It's gloom thy fayourite shade
For thee of all the Cherub I ain,
Alone my votiye muse would WOO,
on all that skim along the main,
Or walk 1T dawn yon mountains blue
Of Ill that slumbered in the grove,
Orpiayful urge ia q ,ssarner's fight,
Or down the vale strcamlet move,
With whisper ssft, and pinon light
\ court thee, through the glimmering air,
Wncn morning springs from slumbcrs stiil,
And, waving bright bis golden hair,
Stands tiptoe on yon eastern hill.
court thee, when at noon rsCned,
watch the murmuring insect throng
IN many All siry spiral wind,
Or silent climb the leaf along.
court thee when the howrets close,
And drink no more reeeding light,
And when calm eve To soft pose
Sinks on the bosom of the night
And, when bencath the moons pale beam,
Alone mid shadowy rocks roam,
y And waking visions round me CLEAN,
OF beings, and of worlds TO come.
Smooth gidcs with thee my pensive hour,
Thou warm'st 10 life my languid mind,
Thou chcerst frame with genial power,
That drops in every ruder wnS.
Breathe, Cherup breathe once soft and warm
Like thine the gale ot Fortune blew,
How has the desol ting storm
Swept all gazcd on from my view
Unseen, unknown. wait my doom,
The haunts of men iNdignant flee,
Hold TO my heart isllcss gloon,
Aud Joy bu. IN the Muse and Thee.

Never purchase friends by gifts for if
you leave to give, they will leave to love.
Love is built upon the union Of minds, not
the b'ioey oil gifts; and the more you give,
the fcwcr friends YOU will have,

In connection with the foregoing, report

LATEST FROM PORTUGAL.

We have received files OF Portuguese and
Spanish sazettes, down to the early part OF
March, and some private aavlCes OF the mill
tary sspcct of things in that country; from
which we collect the following particulars,
principally derived from an officer Of ilac- hTi-
fish army, at Lisbon, at the period Of the de-
parture Of the William Penn,
The head quarters of the British army u,''
der Lord Wellington, Oh the Ath OF March,
was at Cartaxo, near Iilia Franco on the la
gus, Is miles n. E. from Lisbon, his division,
the centre. consisting OF $4,000 British troops
and two brieades of Portuguese.
The head quarters Of Marshal bercstord'
on the same day, Was at Chanasco, 40 mites
eastward CT Cartaxo, ard OF the let: OF TIE l 8
gus. his force consisting OF $1,000 men, pr'E-
cipally Portuguese, with some squadrons OF
British cavalry and British artillery.
The left Of the army under General Drum
mond had its head quarters at Torres Fedras,
% miles due north Of Lisbon, and ABOUT 10
miles from the sea, commanding the lower
road between Lisbon and Lcvria; the force
CONSISTING OF 5000 British & 1000 Portuguese,
with some auxiliary Spaniards.
TIL. head quarters Of the French command
er in chief WAS q: this time aac on the MN oi
March at S.ntaren, p miles y. L. OF the
British head quarters.
The accommodating parties ofthe right wing
under Gen. Beresford, had occasionally cross
ed to the right side of the Tagus, & had made
some demonstrations On that side, the POSITION
of Gen. Beresford being 20 miles ABOVE the
French head quarters; but on the morning OF
The 9Th March. it was found that the French
had retired from this position, having LETT on
their out-posts number Of uniformed et3i-
pies, as deception the next day, the sixth
Of March, the division Of General Berestord
crossed the Tagus, and formed a junction with
the right Of the division of General Wellesley
at Sialsga.
The whole army was now in pursuit OF the
French, who had made very rapid forced
marches. Santarer,, from its extent may be
s,nnosed to have contained about 5000 inha-
p;,ants. but it now exhibited a heap of ruins,
only or houses were LETT habltable, the rest
without exception unrooted and gntted' nor

This admirable compendium of consum.
mate political wisdom, from their best friend,
conveyed in style truly parental, should
render it an inestimablc treasure to every true
American; as it must, if acted upon, have
been an infallible guide to national honor and
prosperity.
The sons of Greece were animated to he.
roic actions by the impassioned addresses of
their orators and poets. The sons of Column
bia are mort powerfully excited by the glo-
rious example, as we'll as by voice from
the tomb of the immortal Washington, to
the exercise of the duties of the christian and
the citizen.
1t is much to be lamentcd that this pre-
cious relique has not become the llrector
and guide of every American citizen, and
that it has become so scarce. To supply this
defect, and to introduce~it into general no
tice at this important crisis, the present edi-
ton is now offered to the public The adj
mirers of the departed hero and patriot, have
now an opportunity of procuring copies and
of making presents to their friends And it
IS presumed that parents and teashers can.
not make more valuable present to their
children and pupils, than this last bequest Of
their common political parent.
