Whole society, (in both the old and new

the poor. They are an Industrious, mod.

They have comprehensive charity to
all mankind and deny the mercies of God
to none; they publicly aver that an uni-
versal liberty is due TO all, are against
impositions of every kind, though they
patiently submit to many themselves, and
are perhaps the only people Of all man.

with his lordiy tyrant, sleeps equally &C

saw the virtuous man contend
With life's unnumber'd woes;
And he was poor--without a friend
Press'd by thousand foes.
/ saw the passions plant slave
In gallant trim and gay
His course was pleasures placid wave,
His life a summers day.
And ] was caught in folly's snare,
And joined her giddy train
But found her soon the nurse ofcare,

Gives vice to bloom its little hour

The following are the concluding lines of an ode
bv Lord Byron, recently published with hi.
poem .Nazeppa. 1t is highly probable the ia
yorable opinion which he entertains of this land
Of freedom, will call forth the ire of the writers
in the London Quarterly Review, who appear
not to relish any compliments bestowed upon
this country or its institutions, as is fully evneed
by their remarks on IS Fearon's Sketches"
NJ. E. Post.
"THE name of Commonwealth is past and gone
Der the three fractions ofthe grooming globe;
Venice is crush'd, and Holland degns to own
A sceptre, and endures the purple robe;
Jf the free Switzer yet bestrides alone
His chainIess mountains, It's but for q time,
For tyranny of late is cunning grown,
And in its own good season trampies down
The sparkies of our ashes. One great cline,
Whose vigorous offspring by dividing ocean
Are kept apart and nursed 10 the devotion
Of freedom, which their fathers fought for, and
Bequesth'd---a heritage Of heart and hand,
And proud distinction from each other land,
Whose sons must bow them at a monarch's motion,
AS if his senseless sceptre were wand
Fuil OF the magic OF expioueu sciehoe-
Still one great cline, in full and free defiance,
Yet rears her crest, unconquer'd and sublime,
Above the far Atlantic She has taught
Her Esau-Brethren that the naughty flag
The floating fence of Albion's feebler crag,
May strike to those whose red right hands have
bought
Rights cheaply earn'd with blood Still, still, for
evers
Better, tho each mans lfe-blood we're river,
That it should flow, and overflow, than creep
Through thousand lazy channels in our veins,
Damm'd like the dull canal with locks and chains,
And moving as asickman in his sleep,
Three PAGES, and then faltering:--better be
Where the extinguished Spartans still are free,
In their proud charnel of Thermopyls,
Than stagnate in our marsh ,--or Ger the deep

One spirit to the souls our fathers had,
One freeman more, America, to theep'
