Where justice held unyielding sway,
ana trampied all corruption down,
And onward took her lofty way
To reach at truths unfading crown:
The rock, where liberty was full,
Where eloquence her torrents roll'd,
And loud, against the despot's rule,
A knell the patriots fury toll'd:
The stage wherein the drama spake,
In tones that seem'd the words of heav'n,
Which make the wretch in terror shake.
As by avenging furies driv'n:
The groves and gardens, where the fire
OF wisdom, as fountain, burn'd.
And every eye, that dar'd aspire
10 truth, has long in worship turn'd:
The halls and porticoes, where trod
The moral sage, severe, unstain'd,
And where the intellectual god
In all the light OF science reign'd:
The schools, where rose in symmetry
The simple, but majestic pile,
Where marble threw its roug hness by,
! 10 glow, to frown, to weep, to smile,
| Where colours made the canvass live,
| Where music roll'd her flood along,
And all the charms that art can give,
Were blent with beauty, love and song:
The port from whose capacious womb,
Hernavies took their conquering road,
| The heralds of an awful doom
To all, who would not kiss her rod
On these dawn q glory springs,
These trophies of her brighter fame;
Away the long-chain'd city filings
Her weeds, her shackles, and her shame
Again her ancient souls awake,
Harmonious bares anew his sword;
Her sons in wrath their letters break.
And freedom is their only lord.

THERE is a tongue in every leaf!

A. voice that speaketh every where,
In food and fire, through earth and air:
A tongue that's never still!
'Tis the Great Spirit, wide difused
Through every thing we see,
That with our spirits communeth
Of things mysterious-life and DEATH,
Time and Eternity!

And in the thunder cloud;
/ hear him in the mighty roar
That rusheth through the forest boar,
When winds are piping loud.
| see Him, hear Him every where,
In all thngs-darkness, light,
Silence, and sound but most of all,
When slumber's dusky curtains fall,
At the dead hour of night.

By grateful earth betrayal;

From all these things, whereof He said,
When the great whole was finished,
That they were "very good"
My sadness on the lovliest things
Fell like unwholesome dew
The darkness that encompass'd me,
The gloom ] felt so palpably,
Mine own dark spirit threw.
Yet He was patient-Slow to wrath,
Though every day provoked
BY selfish pining discomfort,
Acceptance cold or negligent,
And promises revoked.
And still the same rich feast was spread
For my insensate heart
Not always SOL awoke again,
To join Creations rapturous strain,

The clouds drew up, the shadows fed,
The glorious sun broke out,
And love, and hope, and gratitude,
Dispelled that miserable mood
OF darkness and of doubt.

in needle-works and embroideries, it is

AFFRAY AND RIOT

BOSTON, JUNE 2l-On Thursday last,
as some workTeD were mendipp a niece
ofbad pavement at court, in Ann ST.
dispute arose between two of them. one
an irishman and the other Yankee. a.
bout bringing some water. A personal
encounter ensued, at about one O'Clock.
IN which the lrishmao was considered
the most blameable--and degree Of
violence and acrimonY seemed 10 exis,
among the by-standers,a altogether exceed.
ing any blame Justly 10 be attached TO the
original cause, in so trivial Quarrel In
the evening large number of evil dis
posed persons, collected in Ann street.
and riotously assaulted The small tene>
ment Inhabited by King (the Irishman)
and his friends, with stones and BRICK
bats. They demolished all the windows
and committed other excuses. One of
the watchmeD, named Darrow, who at
tempted to interfere, was bruised and
stabbed by some one in the abdomeDs-
but the wound proved to be slight.
The mayor was called from his bed,
and accompanied by the sheriff of Suf-
folk, repaired to the spot. By the assis-
tanCc of some Of the watch and few
constabIes, they were enabled TO restore
the neighborhood to tranquility.
Next day several arrests were made
by the police.
Bligh, the American, was examined
as to the original dispute, but as it ap.
peared that he did not begin the fight,
but was goaded on to il against his will,
he was discharged. His antagonist King)
could not be found.
Warrants were issued for the appre-
hension Of FIVE ring-leaders of the riot
in the evening, but three only were taken
by the officers. Upon investigation, the
riotous acts were brought home to only
one Of them, who was committed to pr
son. In the mean time, the officers are
upon the look out to arrest the others.
Last night, suspicious were aHos', thai
