opinion misapprehend London paragraph
ethe 3oth of May, touching the appolnt-
nent of commits sioners TO treat with ours
tr peace. The London paper could only
have meant to say that the Hague, was not
fixed on as the place Of negotiation, and not
that commissioners were not and would not
be appointed by the British cabinst to ne.
gociate any where. Oar government have
received odvices Of the affointment Of Lord

place may or may not have been afterwards
changed; but ofthe appointment OF British
commissioners there can be no doubt

DY PETER TINDERHoRN, Esq.
MOST mighty giant Of the bar,
To tederalists \ leading star,
Superior in forensic war;
How lustrous is thy glory!
Let me, in humble strains, proclaim
Thy merits and transcendent fame,
And send to future times thy name,
On wings Of deathless story.
Oft has thy soft persuasive voice
Caus'd gladden'd clients to rejoIce,
AS reasons fraaght with wisdom choice,
Came out like torrents rolling;
Thy mind the depths Of law dsplay'd,
All potent patiIos lent its aid,
Jury and courts were converts made,
BY rhetoric controlling.
When high in Congress thou dost weld
Thy mighty jaw, opponents yield,
Appezs'd, confounded quit the field,
Crush'd by thy defamation
Thy gaping friends, astonish'd, gaze,
Spectators stand in dire amaze,
Or. trumpet.;ongued," vociferous raise
The shout of appreciation.
But when, on Litle. Reefs fam'd hill,
Thou dost display thy mstchiess skill,
Wonder and fear all bosoms fill,
At such display. of learning
TIL, mighty genius scorns the rules
30 long established by the schools,
Which only serve to hamper fools,
And scars beyond discerning
Not only mortals feel thy sway,
But stones and trees thy power obey,
As erst they did old Orphsus's lay,
And quit their wonted places;
Especially old Judifh's rocks,
That long have stood numerous shocks,
Yield to thy argumentive knocks,
And tremble on their cases.
The stubborn Point which oft has brav'd
The angry storms which round it rav'd,
Impossible now TO be savd,
No further gives resistance,
1t quaking fees, and with II bears
The lighthouse, which no longer glares,
And WHITyoRp. venting groans and prayers,
Affrighted from existence.
