THE PHILOSOPHER AND TnEFARMER


PsrnAe'nAs rose at early dawn,
BY soaring meditation drawn,

Through fow'ry fields he took his way.
In mnsing contemplation warm,
lis steps msled him to farm,
Where on the ladders topmost round
A peasant stood The hammers sound
Shool, the weak barn. "Say, Friend, what care
Calls for thy honest labor there %
The man with surly voice replies,
Justice aloud for vengeance cries.
This hawk, by daily rapne fed
Ny hens annoy, my turkeys dread,
At length his forfeit life has paid
See on the wall his wings dispay'd,
Here hung, terror to his kind,
Nv fowls shall future safety find,
My yard the thriving poultry feed,
And my barns refuse fat the bread"
"True," said the sage, " the doom is wise,
For public good the murderer dies.
But ii these tyrants of the air
Demand sentence SO severe,
Think how the gut'nous man devours,
What bloody feasts regale his hours;
When thou, perhaps, carniv'rous sinner,
Had pullets yesterday for dinner"
"Hod," cried the man, with passion heated,
Shall Men ard IIsv Ks alike lie tsest6d,
When Heaven the earth with creatures ssor'd,
ban was ordained their sovereign Lord"

MATRIMONIAL EXPORT.

In the early settlement OF Virginia,
when the sdventurers principally were
unmarried men, it was deemed necessary
to export sur women as could be pre-
vailed upon to quit England, as wives
for the planters. A letter accompanying
the shipment OF these matrimonial ex-
ilea, dated Aug. 10, 1921, is illustrative
of the times, and the concern then ielt
for the welfare OF the colony and female
virtue. Il is as fellows:
We send you in the ship, one widow
and eleven maids, for wives for the pee
pie oil Virginia, there hath been espe-
cial care had IN the choice OF them tor
there hath not one Of them been received
bat upon good Communications.
"In case they cannot be presently
married, We desire that they may be put
with several householders that have
wives, TIL they can be provided with
husbands. There are nearly fifty mpr5
that are shortly to come, and are sent
by our honorable Lord and Treasurer,
the Earl of Southampton, and certain
worthy gentlemen, who, taking into their
consideration that the plantations can
never flourish until families be planted,
and the respect of wives aud children
for their people on the soil, therefore
have given this fair beginning: Tor re-
inbursng OF Those charges, ii IS ordered
that every man who marfies them give
100 pounds best lea. tobacco for each CT
Them.
Though we are desirious that the
marriage be free, according to the laws
OF nature, yet We would nc; have these
maids deceived and married 20 servants (;
but Only to such freemen and tenants ~
have means to maintain them. We pray
YOU therefore TO be fathers Of them in
this business, noi enforcing them to mar
ry against their Wills"

NEW PICTURE.


Pie7u Of tie congressional House Of Re

The Essueclicai Magazine, publish

tice OF new painting Of the Hall OF The
House Of Representatives, by Mr. s.

Journey TO New England. Conn. Jour.
Sat New Haven we had an opportn-
nifty ofseeing painting OF the Han Of the
House of Representatives, by AIR S. +.
b. Morse. The size Of the picture is
eleven feet by six and half Ii shows
the floor and one half of The interior wall
of the house. The time is evening, Just
when the members are collecting for an
cveaing sitting. There are between nine
~ and hundred figures in the picture,
almost the whole Of which are portraits
drawn with great ex.ciness: that is if
the likenesses OF our acqusintsnces NAV
stand as samples of the verSimihtude OF
the rest. We distinguished them in a
moment, and it wss pleasant there to re-
cognize the faces of several Virginia ac-
quaintsnces. Although the figures in
the picture interested US so highly, they
are not the priucipsi objects. The lc-
gislative hall, which by The way is said
to be the most splendid in the world,
is The chief thing with the painter. His
design seems to be, TO lei his fellow citi-
zens see Congress, without the expense
Of going To Washington, or the odinn
ofbeing suspected 10 be an Office hunter"
