perfumes brought from every part of The

In the countenances of the owners, how
ever, every thing that is base and con-
temptible may he seen, forming as great
variety, although Of less pleasing nature,
as their articles Of traffic. The Jews al,
ways refer you to one Of their sect, provided
they have not the article enquired for, and
consider cheating the remainder of their
fellow tradesmen as part Of their probes
sion. They are not so much to be blamed
when we consider, that were they to be
honest. few would be willing TO give them
the deserved praise. On the other hand,
the Greeks, and some few of the Arme-
mans, commit The same act, and cover their
villsiny under the mask of religion.
The Bazars occupied by the Turks, are
in that part of the city called Turktown,

low citizens with the great and lasting i'm.
portance of education, especially to peo-
pie whose fundamental principles OF gov.
eminent are those OF equal liberty Justice
and order, on the support OF which res, al
our republican institutions, and from which
flow public as well as private happiness
have at different times made various efforts
10 place the Academy upon more useful
and respectable establishment, than il has
heretofore been. They have with reors,
seen their well meant efforts fail, for wan.

their beloved offspring ought 10 afford
The trustees cannot continue their Of.
forts to sustain the Academy, without other
means than those they have heretofore noe.
sessed. They world therefore respectful.
ly represent to their fellow.cilizens of the
town, the necessity there is of some efTor,
on their part 10 enable the trustees TO make
such a Change in the house and institution
as will render them generally useful.
The form Of the house is announcement:
1T is in such state OF decay as to he unit

institution requires certain necessary appa.
nd Cd met
these objects, funds are necessary, which
cannot, as experience has clearly shown,
be raised solely from the price of tuition.
Ii is confidently believed that the trustees
in making this appeal TO the parental feel
ings and liberality Of the citizens Of the
town, will not appeal in vain, especially
when they reflect, that by placing the Aca.
denny in their own town on respectable
footing, they will be relieved in a great
measure from the necessity Of sending their
children 10 distant places for instruction, at
a much greater expense than that al which
they could be educated al home, and in lob
many instances at the very dear price OF the
loss OF their moral principles.
The law Incorporating the Academy de-
clares that all persons, and their respective
heirs, who shall contribute five pounds to
the use Of the Academy, shall have the right
to vote al all elections Of trustees.
Trusting that every citizen who values
the blessing OF education, the good Of SO.
ciety, and the happiness and responsibility
of his children, will contribute literally to-
wards so desirable an object, the trustees
have appointed some Of their own body 10
wait upon their fellow. citizens with a sub
scription paper for that purpose.

THE RUINS.

by sEILEcK OSBORN.
I've seen in twilight's pensire hour,
The moss-clad dome, the moud'rng tower,
In awful ruin stand
That dome where grateful voices sung,
Tha. tower whose Ginning music rnng,
Majestically grand;
I've seen, mid sculptur'd pride, the tomb
Where heroes slept m silent gloom
Unconscious either fame
Those who. with iaurelpd honors crown'd,
Among their foes spread terror round,
And gain'd anempty name!
Eve seen in deaths dark palace laid,
The ruins Of beauteous maid,
Cadaverous and pale!
That maisen, who, while lie remand,
Der rival charms in triumph reign'd
The mistress of the vsse.
Eve seen, where dungeon damps abide,
A youth, admir'd in manhood's PRIDE,
In faucied greatness rave;
He who, in reasons happier day,
Was yirtuous, witty. noble, gay,
Learn'd, generous and brave.
Nor dome, nor tow'r, in twilight shade
Nor hero fall'n, nor beauieous maid
To ruin all consign'd!
Can with such pa,hos touch my breast,
As ION the maniac's form impresD
The ruin Of a NOBLE mind.
