AMERlCA.-Tune-" Aanks ec tyre"
When Ger the world cast a view,
And mark each eli Ne where monarchs reign
See millions lawn around the few,
And meanly court the tyrants chain
See Slavery kiss the scourging rod,
And man to power unholy pray,
! bless thy name, Almighty God,
That Freedom rules-AMERICA.
But while my heart, so grateful. gows
Land of my birth, for all thy charms,
1t bleeds for Arics wrongs and woes
Her children ravshed from her arms;
That blood in bushes seeks my face
Ye patriots wipe the stain away
The blacklist blot of foul Disgrace
The slavery of--AMERICA.
Thy winding rivers, long and wide,
That deeply pour throgh hills and vaes--
Thy lakes where laundering navies ride,
And proudly show their conquering sails
Thy gloomy forests rank and wild,
Where mammoths roamed, and panthers stray,
And warlike savage, nau e's child,
Proclaim hee free--AMERICA.
Thy mountains lifeguard giants stand
Whese plumes and helmets reached the skies
Whose mighty looks our awe demand,
| When stars are pr ud TO be their eyes -
Were ever scenes So grand as these
nended for tyrant's sway
Was slavery waited DER thy seas,
To blast Why lame--AMERlC y?
| Those seas--those mountains look abashed,
| When they behold the negro slave,
| Against thy shores by pillows dashed,
And none TO pily-nonr to save;
Ur living but to curse the cline,
Mud sadly mourn the fatal day,
That doomed him, guiltiess Of crime,
10 bondage in AMERICA.
We S atesnen pairiots--wise and good
Ye heroes who have bled and died
10 stand again as once we stood,

Redress the wrongs-restore the rights
l(It Enthusiastically records say,
| Debarred from Llberty's delights,
Aud born to curse AMERICAS!
Laid Of my life thy genius comes
The spirits OF the mighty dead
Rise from their long--long silent homes,
And hover round the mInstrel's head !
fl My country's banners bright with stars
81 heir wounds fresh bleeding thesu display
And all their wounds and deadly scars,

n Yes Time, like that strong angel, sent
From heaven to break the Hebrews chain

LATEST FROM ENGLAND.

BY the ship Psrthian from Liverpool, and last
from Milford Haven, we have received London pa.
pers to March, ten days later than were brought by
the Herald.
Accounts from Constantinople to Feb. H. repeat
the story of the arrest of Ali Pacha. Another &C
count is, that his head was cut off, and that it was
received by the Sultan with marks of great satsfac-
ton.
LONDON, March 20.
A report has prevailed in the city this morning
that all differences between Russia and Turkey are
adjusted, and that Turkey gives up to Russia the
provinces Of Moldavia and Wallachia.
PARIS, March 14.-Tranquity is at length re.
stored to Paris The vigorous measures taken yes.
erday and the day before have SO terrified the ill
disposed that they have not dared to repeat the scan
dalous scenes which have afflicted the peaceable
inhabitants for this fortnight past.
BY TIE brig Orion from Bordeaux we have re-
ceived the papers of that city to March 18th, and
those of Paris to the 18th. These papers, as we'll
as the London papers, contain accounts of distur.
Dances in Paris and in other parts of France, but
there does not appear to be any commotion of a
serious nature. Gen. Berton it is said, concealed
himsefn the marshes at the head of few follow
ers, where he had eluded the attempts to appre-
bend him.
