PARODY.
By "A NEWS PRINTER.


To dun-or not to dun that is the question:
Whether tits better that the purse should suffer,
lFor lack of cash) by baneful emptiness
Or by gentle dun to fill itup;
To dun to get the money-and be enabled
To live and pay our debts-'ts contamination
Devoutly to be wished. To dun--to be dunned-
Denied with call again aye there's the rub:
For in that scall again what evils come,
What disappointment sore-chagrin and woe
What time is wssted-and what Shoes are worn
In consequence--must give me pain.
1t is this
That makes SO many debts not worth collecting,
lis this which sickens business 10 despair,
And keeps from honest labor its reward.
We don't forget our many, many friends
TO them debt of gratitude we owe;
10 them our gratitude we freely pay.
Buoy'd by their kindness, still our bark shall
sad, .-0~-
Enjoy the pleasing calm, nor dread the bois-
t'rous gale.

The Wreath and Chain.

BRING thee, love, golden chain,
bring thee too flowery wreath;
The gold shall never wear stain.
The. tiowrets long shall sweeuy breathe |!
Come, tell me which the tie shall be
To bind thy gentle heart TO me.
The chain is of splendid thread,
StoPn from Minerals yellow hair,
Just when the setting sun had shed
The sober beam OF evening there,
The wreathes of brightest myrtle wove,
With brilliant tears of bliss among it,
And many rose-leaf, GUILD by Love,
To heal his lip when bees have stung it
Come, tell me which the tie shall be,
To bind thy gentle heart to me.
Yes, yes, / read that ready eye,
Which answers when the tongue is loatb,
Thou lk'st the form of either tie, "
And hold'st thy playful hands for both.
An it there were not something wrong,
The world would see them blended oft
The chain would make the wreath so strong
The wreath would make the chain so soft
Then might the gold, the how'rets be
Sweet letters for my love and me
But, Fanny, so unblest they Irvine, @
That (heav'n alone can tell the reason)
when mingled thus they cease to shine,
Or shine but for transient season
Whether the chain may presa too much,
Or that the wreath is slightly braided;
Let but the gold the how'rel touch,
And all their glow, their tintB are faded
sweet Fanny, what would rapture do,
When all her blooms had lost their grace
Might she not steal q rose or two,
From other wreaths TO fill their place D.
oh better to be always free,
Than thus to bind my love to me.
The timid girl now hung her head,
And, as she turn'd an upward glance,
I saw doubt its twilight spread
Along her brow's divine expanse.
Just then, the garland's dearest rose
Gave one of its seducing signs
oh who can ask how Fanny chose,
That ever look'd in Fanny's eyes!
The wreath, my life, the wreath shallbe
"The tie to bind my soul to thee.

A SEMI.wEEKLY NEWSPAPER
TO BE ENTITLED
THE ECHO.
Prospectus.


FROM the advantages of its physical situation
from the native fertility. improved condition.
and increasing wealth of the circumiacent coun.
try and particularly, from the industry, enterprise
and liberality of the people of the Town, and its
environs, Lynchburg derives advantages more
than adequate to the patronage and support of a
semi-weekly paper.
This consideration impels us to undertake s,,eA
a paper.
This paper is intended to be chieflya prornps
and convenient vehicle of domestic and foreign
News. At the same time, it will be open to sci.
entihc, moral, agricultural and political ESSAYS.
We are Republicans-but on questions of general
Importance, we will ehserfully admit the essays
OF those who may differ from us in opinion, pro-
vided those essays lie marked with liberalitv
OF ideas, and moderation>of temper. Our main
object will uniformly be, TO collect to focus.
those rays of political light which may be scatter.
ed in the intellectual atmosphere around us--and.
by that means, to shed the effulgence Of truth
on every face, side and aspect of such topics Of
discussion as may excite deep and lively interest.
We are youns-bent on enterprise-possessed
OF indpstry-capable of perseverance. We have
both been brought up to the printing business.
and we are not utter strangers to the due manage
ment, and proper conduct of newspaper. Our
efforts will be unremitted--and, we trust, sue
cessful. They will be constantly and earnestly
directed to the collection of the most recent in
teiligence OF every sort-to judicious selection
OF borrowed materials-in short, to the rerrulari.
ty, symmetry, and elegance of whole, combn-
lng at the same time, variety ofsubjects and uni.
ty ofplan.
In promising thus much, we do not overstep,
we hope, the modesty of Prospectus. We ara
confident that disappointment will not tread up
on the heels OF promise. We have well consider
ed what we are able to Perform-and we feel the
ardor and energies of individuals ambitious Of
success-and whose success chiefly depends on
the extent of their exertions.
/ Our hopes become the more saguine, when we
reheet on the characteristic beralty of those per-
sons whose patronage we solicit. They are, we
well know, disposed to encourage commendable
ettorts-to aid modest industry-and to renune.
rate useful labors.
With these motives-these means-these hopes
and this prospect, we will commence the publ.
cation OF the ECHO about the 18th of March
next.
