From 'cLIo,' a New Poem, by James G. percival.

From sCLIo,' New Poem, by James G. Percival
Well remember in my boyish days.
How deep the feeling when my eye look d forth
On nature, in her loveliness. and storms:
How my heart gladden. as the light of spring
Came from the sun, with zephyfs and with showers,
Waking the earth to beauty, and the woods
To music, and the atmosphere to blow,
Sweetly and calmly, with its breath of balm.
Oh how gard upon the dazzling blue
OF summers heaven of glory, and the waves
hat rolrd in bending gold, DER hill, and plain
And on the tempest when it issued forth,
In folds OF blackness from the northern sky,
And stood above the mountains, silent, dark,
browning and terrible then sent abroad :
he lightning, as its herald, and the peal
hat rolled in deep yollies, round the hills
he warning of its coming, and the sound
That ushered in its elemental war.
And Q! stood, in GREATNESS longing fxed
Trembling, and yet not fearful, as the clouds
Heay'd their dark pillows on the roaring winds,
That sent from mountain top and bending wood
a long hoarse murmur like the rush of waves
That burst, In foam and fury, on the shore.

rnosrEcrus AND TERMS DE PUBLICATION

PROSPECTUS AND TERMS OF PUBLICATION.
lVVNHE objects of the editors, in this pubca-
Il ton, are, to expose the faliacy ofthe .1Gs-
| sionary plans now in operation, and, fpossible,
| to break the spell which is maintained over the
public mind, by designing men, relative to
Missions to tear from hypocricy her mask,
and expose her in her native deforInity to
disseminate correct religious intelligence to
encourage home charities, andto combat error
and fdlsehood upon these subjects, in whate-
yer form they may encounter them.
The first number of PLAIN TRUTH was
issued on the 9Th of March last, anC, the work
has been continued half-monthly, to the pre-
sent time AS its commencement was rather
an experiment than otherwise the four first
numbers contained but 4 royal octave pages
each. But the public having declared in its
favor, the Editors were enabled to enlarge it
to pages, royal octave, in which form it will
continue to be published.
The Editors pledge themselves that PLA1g
1RUTH shall never become 8ectariat. work
They can now count with pleasure among their
subscribers members Of nearly all the differ
ent denominations of christians in our coun-
try.
At the end of the volume contents and
title page will be furnished each subscriber,

TERMS.
PLAIN Truth is published every fortnight
on Friday, at Canandaigua, N. Y. price One
Dollar per year, payable in ad0ance. Com
plete files will be furnished to new subscr-
bers, and those requesting it shall have their
papers carefully put up and forwarded TO them
by mail.
or A commission of ten per cent. will be
allowed to agents who procure ten or more
ubscribers. 1t must be remembered, how
ever, that no credit is allowed-consequently
no letter will be attended to unless Post Paid,
and accompanied with the subscription mo-
ney in advance. Some complaint has been
made to this course, but we find it necessary
to adhere to it strictly for it cannot be sup
posed that we are acquainted with the re-
sponsibilty of distant applicants, and the
low price at which we offer our work does
not prepare US to sustain any losses.

From the Village Record.

A few days ago woman in Quabacake
valley, Northampton county, observed a
rattlesnake coiled on a log near the
house she took her husbands rifle out
to shoot it, but setting the gun near the
end of the log, concluded to kill it with a
stick, which she effected, then reaching
for the rife and drawing it towards her
the lock struck knot, the gun went oil
and the ball entered her left side, and
came out near the shouldcr-she did not
fall, but took the rifle into the house and
set it up--took her infant from the era
die, and bidding one OF the older children
to press her hand on the wound to check
the effusion Of blood, gave suck to her
thild--thus exemplifying the 'ruling
passion strong in death'-the last thought
Of the mother was associated with the
comfort of her little one; few hours
after the woman was corpse.
Speaking Of maternal tenderness,
brings an anecdote to my mind, related
short time ago to me by gentleman
from the south west, which the reader
cannot peruse with Indifference, although
he may not see how it grows out Of the
story just told. In Mississippi there
was hunter who used 10 allure the Doe,
within reach of his rifle by initiating the
cries ofthe fawn--a simply cry like that
Of young lamb-and when the mother
was led TO the spot by the supposed voice
of her young, he would kill her. When
the fact was known, general burst OF in
dignation broke forth against the man.
From the most elevated in society to the
humblest negro on the neighboring plan
tations, there was an universal exclama-
ton against the wretch, who could
treacheronsly betray to death, by an ap-
peal 10 that most sacred of all instincts,
the affection Of mother for her offspring.
The hunter was obliged solemnly to pro-
mise to do so no more, or 10 abandon his
home and his hunting ground. The feel
ing excited, and the interposition, were
honorable to humanity.

A brow austere, acircumspective eye,
A frequent shrug of the os hume,i,
A nod significant, a stately gait,
A clustering manner and a tone ofweight,
A smile sarcastic, and expressive stare,
Adapt all these as time and place will bear,
Then rest assured that those of little sense
Will set you down--a man Of consequence.
