or nations Two Englishmen have teee
shot for having passed the limits of the
line OF precautionary posts round that CT

Several Turkish vessels have arrived
here, having on board persons who eau

SWEET LITTLE ANNE.
Can aught be more fair TO the eye
Than the blush of the madenly year
Can aught with the orchard bloom vie
When, in May, its sweet blossoms appear
Can aught like the eglantne please,
Or the rose budding-tell me what can,
o thrice more attractive than these,
Is the cheek ofmy sweet little Anne.
What can charm like the spring of the field,
When it trickels transparentlv by
Or what sweeter pleasure can yield
Than TO look on the gem of the sky
What can win like the tremulous dew,
Which the Zephyrs on gossamer fan,
o thrice more enchanting toview,
Is the eye of my sweet little Anne
Can aught like the morning delight
When il dawns towards peaceabie day
Or bewitch, like the planet ofnight,
When she S, eals i'll good humor awayl
Is there aught like the sweetness of eve
When serene when nature began,
'The soft sun takes his mellow last leave'
Yes--the smile of my sweet little Anne;
Can aught more delicious be nam'd
Than the exquisite fruit Of the Pine'
More inviting can aught beproclaim'd
Than the elegant bunch of the Vines
Is there aught can in flavor exceed
-Ev'ry beverage precious to man
o. yes--these are tasteless indeed
To the kiss of my sweet little Anne.
Three more than the sun setting hour,
Or the dawn of the morning benign,
! More delightful than springs sweetest how'r
Or the mirth making jaice of the vine,
More serene thar the gems of the sky
And more soft than The down on the Swan
