WINTER.

NO more the morn, with tepid rays,
Bnfolds the flowers of various hue;
Noon spreads no more the genial blaze,
Nor gentle eve distils the dew.
The lingering hours nrolong the night,
Usurping darkness Sian the day;
Her mists restrain t.s force of light,
And Phosbus holds a doubtful sway.
By gloomy twilight, half revealed,
With signs we view the hoary hill
The lcatiess wood, the naked field,
The snow-top'd cot, the frozen r;ll.
No musick MARBLES through the grove,
No vivid colours paint the plain;
No more with devious steps rove
Through verdant paths, now sought in vain.
Aloud the driving tempest roars
Congeal'd, impetuous showers descend:
Haste, close the windows, bar the doors !;
Fate leaves thee Stella and friend.
In NATURES aid let art supply
With light and heat my little sphere;
Rouse, rouse the FIRE, and pile it high,
Light up a constellation here.
Let musick sound the voice Of joyt
Or mirth repeat the jocund tale;
Let love his,wanton wiles employ,
And DER the season wine prevail.
Yet time life's dreary winter brings,
When mirth's gay tale shall please no more
Nor musick charm, though Stella sings;
Nor love, nor wine, the Spring restore.

ious to place his character in the fairest
point Of view, voluntarily declared even
more than was required; and paliated
nothing in which he himself had been
concerned. No witnesses we're examin-
ed before the board and after taking
time for consideration, they concluded
to report, although it is said not unani-
mously, "that MJ. John .4ndre, .4djrs-
tant- General Of the British army, ought
to be considered as Spy from the enemy;
and that, ogreenbiy to tie ha0 and usage
Of nations, he ought to suffer deaM."-
After this report of the Court of Inquiry
was known, the British officers used ev-
cry possible exertion tn ingenuity could
invent, to snatch the gallant Andre from
his impending fate. Flags of truce were
continually passing and repassing be-
tween the armies; letters were written
in the most mastery manner, calculated
to touch the feelings of Gen. Washing
ton conferences were held between
the officers of the opposing armies, sc,
&c. but all, all proved unavailing An.
Dire, understanding that his fate was FIX
ed, and the mode of his death, address
ed letter TO Gen. Washington, in which
he says, "Let me hope, sir, that if aught
In my character impresses you with es-
TEEN towards me-if aught in nv mis-,
fortunes marks me as the victim of poll
cy, and not of resentment, shall expe-
rience the operation of these feelings in
your breast, by being informed am not
to die on gi6bet" As the mode of his
execution was determined on, the feel
ings of Maj. Andre were spared, by not
answering this letter. On the morning
of the Cd of October, the unfortunate
Andre was led forth to the place Of ex-
ecution. As he passed along, the Amer
lean army were astoaished at the digni-
ty Of his department, and the manly
complacency of countenancc which be-
spoke the serene composure of his mind.
The scene was overwhelming every
heart throbbed with anguish, while tears
Of sensibility flowed from every eye
He bowed to those he had known dur
ing his confinement; and coming in view
of the fatal spot, and seeing the prep
arations for his execution, he stopped as
if absorbed in thought; then quickly
turning to the officer next him, exclaim-
ed" What +! must | die in this manner %
Being told it was so ordered, he instant
~ said, /" am reconciled, and submit TO
my fate, but deplore the mode-it will
be but momentary pang - and pro-
ceeding with calmness, mounted the
scaffold, adjusted the fatal cord himself,
and requested the surrounding spectators
to bear witness 10 the world, THAT HE
DIED LIKE CRAVE MAN.-lIis body was
inferred in an open field, near the place
of his execution; a consecrated spot.
where friends and foes mingle their sor-
rows, and together deplore the untimely
exit of a man possessed of such rare ac-
complishments, fascinating manners, and
nobleness of mind.

Beauty and elegance are nearly re-
lated. Their difference consists in this,
that elegance is the image of the mind,
displayed in motion and department
beauty is an image of the mind in the
countenance and form; consequently,
beauty is of a more fixed nature, and
owes less to art and habit.
The Massachusetts spy. [volume] (Worcester [Mass.]) 1821-1823, 1822-01-02

There is an Obvious relation between
the mind and the turn fthe features, so
well known by instinct that every one is
more or less expert at reading the coun-
tenance. We look as well as speak our
minds; and amongst people oflittle ex-
perience the look is generally most sim
cere. The natural virtues and vices
not only have their places in the aspect
even acquired habits, that much affect
the mind, settle there; contemplation,
in length of time, gives aeast of thought
to the countenance..
