Margaret we never met be ore
And Margaret, we may meet no more,
What Shall say at parting
Scarce half moon has its race
Since first your fairy face,
Around this gay and giddy place
Sweet smiles and bushes darling,
We: from my heart freely tell,
cannot help but wish you well.
dare not wish you stores Of wealth,
Atroopof friends, unfailing health
And freedom from afIiicton!
dare not wish you beauty's prize,
Carnation lips and bright blue eyes
They speak thro' tears, they breathe thro' sighs
Then hear my benediction.
OF these good things be you possest
Just in the measure God thinks best
Bot little Margaret may you be
All that His eye delights to see;
All that he loves and blesses;
The Lord in darkness be your light.
Your strength in sickness, shield in fight,
Your health, your riches and your might,
Your comfort in distresses;
The hope of every future BREATH
And your eternal Joy in death.

THE RICH AND THE POOR MAN.
So goes the world; if wealthy you may call
This friend, thai brother friends and brothers all,
Though you are worthless witless-neyer mind it
You have been stable boy-what then!
: lis wealth, good sir, makes honorable men,
Won seek respect, no doubt, and you will find it.
But if you are poor, heaven help YOU tho your sire
Had Solon's blood within him and though you
Possess the intellect of angels too
IT'S all in vain the world will ne'er inquire
On such score--why should it take the pains
lis easier to weigh purses sure, than brains.
once saw a poor devil, keen and clever,
Witty and wse--he paid visit
And no one noticed him and no one ever
Gave him welcome Strange cried whence is it?'
He walked on this side, then on that;
He tried to introduce social chat;
Now here, there lin vain he tried;
Some formally and freezingly replied, and SONS
SAID by their silence better stay at home.'

lie could not pride himself upon his wit
Nor wisdom--for he had not got bit
lie had what's bet'er--he had wealth.
What confusion! all stand up erect
These crowd around to ask him his health;
These bow in honest duty and respect;
And these arrange sofa or a chair
And these conduct him there;
l. Allow me, ST. the honor;' then bow
Down to the earth--Ts't possible to show
Meet gratitude for such kind condescenson?
The poor man hung his head
And to himself he said
i This is indeed beyond my comprehension
Then looking round,
One friendly face he found,
And said-s spray tell me why is wealth preferred
TO wisdom !'--' That's silly question, friend! Z
Replied the other,---' have you ever heard
A man may lend his store

But wisdom none can borrow--nohe can lsnd'

the present NUMBER to present himself respectfully before
his old friends the patrons Of this paper and the public

endeavor to deserve.
1t is deemed superuous at this time, when the aim and
design of Periodical Publications. and especially Of News
papers, well understood to enlarge upon their t
Sty suffice it therefore to say that the columns of the
American Waterman will embrace every topic common
or proper for Public Journal viz. Articles Agrcu-
ture Arts and Sciences; Manufactures; Morals and His

An abstract of the proceedings of the Congress of the
u. s. and of the Speeches of the Governors o. the several
States to the Legislatures thereof shall be recorded
gether with much of the Legislative proceedings OF
each State, as may be generally interesting
The P0RncS of the Waterman will be purely american,
and in strict accordance with Democraca Republican
institutions of country. "ItWh is Victor without
oence" and long decency and candor guide the pen,
the columns of the Wachman shall be always free and
pen for the fair investigation of the pretesons of can
dates for public offices; of public men and public mea-
sures--unmngled with the wormwOod and the gall that
have heretofore characerzed, at the time that they
have disgraced too many Of the presses of country
but the TRUTH unvarnshed, shall at all times be earessy
