THE LATE GALE.

astrous effects of he late tremendous gale,

ructive, both Of lives and property, ever ex-

In noticing some poetry, lately published in the Ga

the llt instant, has this remark who can read his
Poem, the Maniad, without blushng at the total wan,
of decent regard for the morals of the rising
ton There may be, in the Maniad, some illusions
with which the gentleman is entirely pleased, and
TO w his dspeasure he has endeavored to attach to
1t ts character of immoral The NIaniad has been
read by gentlemen, whom, we believe to be in all
respects as well qualified to judge OF the correctness
and proprety OF literary productions this discerning
Editor but they 50 fortunate as to discover
the faults complained Of: therefore enter our an
peal from the gentlemans judgment.
The tender solicitude he expresses for preserving
pure the morals of the rising generation evinces
disposition highly commendable. Who can doubt his
sincerity and his utter adherence Of fasehood and
profanity, if they read in his paper of July 24th bis
statement Of the proceedings Of caucus, held in this
town. and his poetry, Michael Virgins in debt" in
his paper above mentioned of the llth instant? Such
things very naturally remind Us Of the story related Of

conceives that the lowest price at which

dollars. 1t is said the Austrian, Russian
and British Ministers at Constantinople
are supported at an expence of $50, or

1t is stated that few or no domectie ar
