HUMOUR.

II Mezo Method Of Making IS Notes.
A countryman having applied at a
store for few necessarIes Of life, could
not pay tor them, as all the moneys he
possessed were under IS, and the store
keeper would not take them, as it was
contrary to law-Being placed IN this
singular situation, he retired and an
hour afterwards returned with five one
dollar notes all neatly sewed together,
which he presented as IS note. 1t
being novelty to see note of this de-
scription, ard the store keepers con-
science being satisfied, he gave the srti-
cles to the purchaser, who went home
with sensations Of pleasure, in thinking
how he had so adroitly evaded a law OF
the land.

ONE DAY LATER FROM FRANCE.

The ship Lewis from Hayre, which arrived
late last evening, has brought Paris dates ofthe
Odd March, at which period no accounts appear
to have been received OF the commencement of
hostilities. The king had issued a decree cash
iering the sergeant who had destroyed the or
deT for laying hands on M. Manuel. Adyices
from Constantiuopie of the 18th Feb. give rea-
son for believing that the peace of the east
would not be disturbed. Lord Strangford had
signi6ed TO the Porte that the emperor AIexap.
der was DESTROYS of peace, and the other pow
ers, on the principle Of not interfering with the
internal regulations of other nations, had the
same views, and desired at the same time, that
the sublime Porte would pursue the system, re-
Gently adopted of separating the innocent from
the guilty.
The Paris papers deny the statement respect
ing the seizure Of the English journals contain
ing the account of the Spanish dinner. delay
in the arrival Of the London papers had given
rise to the mistake. a French journal called
the Album had been seized. Ii contained a re-
view Of a work, giving an account Of the dis
asters Of the French army 10 the last Spanish
war, which gave offence TO the present govern
ment
In the Chambers on the 2lst. numerous ne.
titions were presented from Havre, Bordeaux, ,
Rouen, Meriaix, &c. praying that France may
continue in state Of peace. NJ HYDE de Neu-
vile stated, that although by the charter Of
France, citizens were allowed the right of pe-
"t'ohing, anu the petitions now presented we're
respectfully drawn, yet he objected to petitions
from those who did not know how to write, aud

WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY Z, 1928.
My sorrows are maay, on him rely,
And Joy FOR woe he yieldeth."

1
Filler visage is veil'd-her yellow hair
| Loose Ger her white bosom strayed;
And, his fair as the cloud that streaks
the air,
| While morning still delayeth.
I PART IL.
Highly howls the storm, the night is dim,
And the fugitive clouds are flying
For his voice now booms DER the rivers
| brim,
Vow Ger the swamp is dying.
A beauteous baooi 1t came 10 life,
Like q new-blown blossom smiling;
Absi his rosy hands were in feeble strife,
His poutips lips beguiiing.
"HaiI to thy soft and violet eye
And hail to thy puDy being
On my .hrobbing heart, thou sweet shalt
My feeble sorrows 3eeing. rlie,
ooh thy mothers song thou ne'er shall,
hear
But one stIll sweetly budding llow'r,
With mothers love will follow thee,
dear,
And guard thy youthful hour.
Sand thou'lt be to me a blessing, born
10 sooth my long years Of sorrow
And the tears that furrow my cheek o,
morn,
Joy from thine shall borrow"
Sweetly he smiled--but haggar6 eve,
With dark hellish Rash, was cleaning
On the helpless thing that it doomed to
die,
In earliest life.spring beaning.
Curs'd be that soul of hideous guilt,
For ii heard thy cry unheediDg
Curse the iron hand that thy blood nath
split,
The eye that watched thy bleeding.
"Oh spare that feeble innocent life :"
But the faring fame he parted.
Hank 10 the smo,her'd shrlek-the strup
Cling strife
While back the murd'rer started.
Midst the dreadful Fame the infan, lies j,
How that little frame did quver
And family sink those agonizIng cries.
For ever-.0h for ever.
Highly Ger its head tho brands he piled,
And he rak'd the embers nearer
"Lo see'st thou not yonder shadow
wild !
Howls not the tempest drearer ?"
"Aye !ereary it howls-but must 60
And bear thee, my love, tho dying
For while close in my arms fold thee so,
My steed should far be Aying."
To his horse he bore that lady, then
Closely in his cloak did shroud her
And the heavy hoof shook the hollow
glen,
The echo answered louder.
But soon it diej-and trembling fed
From that dismal hall for ever.
=
Next morn we tracked where the cour.
ser's tread
Passed to the rolling river.
There we lost each trace--but oft at
night,
When the savage gust is signing,
Then methinks can see that broad rcd
light
Hear that slain infants crying.
And often, 'tis said, within that shed,
A fierce midnight flame swaketh;
And tremulous scream, when it high
doth gleam,
On the late trav'ler breaketh.
From Hudi6rds, the younger.
TO please all men, in times like these,
Is not allowed by fatc's DEGREES;
Therefore, in spite Of friends or pelf,

THE FoUNr.


The NJ Erred INFANT
Or, The Widozv's 7ale.
PART 1.
On a gentle hill the log house stood,
Where narrow cornfield crown'd it;
The shadowy gloom Of the sombre wood
Shew'd where the forest bound it.
The autumn sun, in the stormy west,
Roll'd red to his ruby dwelling,
The warrior wind, from his couch ofrcst,
In ftful signs was swelling.
His wrath rose high as the night grew
dim,
The black broken clouds were sailing,
And the tail pines roar'd, and the dead
trees limb
aCrash'd loud upon the paling.
To my humble couch pensive crcpt,
And methought there could rest me !;
But without knowledge of care I wept,
And heavy woe possess'd me.
For sad nquietude-causeless fear
Der all my lone soul was creeping.
Like the sullen wave on the sea stones
bare,
When ocean winds are sleeping.
Who heavily tramps the rain-beat land
He rideth around the dwelling /;
And the hasty hooi, or the slaked sand,
Splash'd where the pools were swell
ing.
Loud was the knock-and his hurried
call,
His tremulous voice, was fearful
AS the hollow sigh from the bosom's
thral,
When quilts pale eye is fearful.
"Waken thee, lady thy door unbar
Awake-awake and prepare thee.
Rise lady, rise for thy call is far,
And with me must bear thee"
ooh! am helpless woman heres
No friend TO shield me below
Then, in ply, forgive woman's fear,
With thee Cannot CO."
"unbar thy door with me thou shalt go,
lho' that feeble door rended;
Then hasten thee, l pray, nor lInger SO,
My time is almost ended"
"IelI-tell, charge thee, whittier then,
And why thus in darkness flying {"
"Io The lonely house in the pine land
glen,
To aatch maiden dying"
ooh TVS there the ghosts of guilt, they
say,
Are heard in the midnight shriekiDg,
When the heavy wind sweeps the pas
sage way,
And swinging doors are creakiDg"
Wide few the catch, and the rain beat
His broad cloak about him furling,
Al shrouded he stood but his dark
naIr thin
Round his keen eye was curling.
He seized my arm, and he swung me
round,
On that ow.white courser seating
And a bound he gave-fieetly o'er the
ground
We ride amidstths sleetiDg.
The storm wildly swsy'd the groapiDg
limbs,
The wjre>grass shrilly did whistle
The meteor adriit, Ger the sand Bill
swIms,
Where spreads the desolate thistle.
A voice, methougbt, thro' the concave
sky,
Rose lonely in hollow number;
Oh twas deep-'twas drear as tho dead
mans cry,
That breaks the murders slumber.
From the Dismal Swamp the panther's
howl,
The chicken. snakes yelp was waking (;
kpd the glowing eye, and The hungry
grow,
Told where the wolf was breaking.
'.LO look thou there--how ghasliy the
glare !
Twas athwart the road be dsrted."
Flies the startled sleed, on he wings Of
fear,
Like shaft from cross.bow parted.
-Awsy--sway to the lonely hall,
10 the lonely house he llieth
fhc broad fame glimmers on Inc broken
wall,

THE HERMIT.

Died, on the East Rock, in this town,
- TURNER, Usually called " The
Hermit" This singular being had for a
number of years lived in secluson on the
top of this rock, the assent to " hich is both
difficult add tedious. His residence was U
cabin, but of earthIaGd stone, with an aper-
ture which served both as an entrance and
chimney. At the extremity of this cabin
was his bed, composed OF husks and boughs
where, on Sunday the I'd ms. he was found
dead. An inquest was held on the body,
whose verdict was, that he died by the
visitation of God. His person was covered
with rags, and in that part of them which
served as his trowsers there was found,
strongly sewed in triple folds, upwards OF
forty dollars in sllyCr--whlch seems to
shGw that though he had renounced the
world, the love of gam was still inhercnt.-
The only companions Of his retirement
were two or three sheep, which he fed
with care, and they enjoyed all his teader
ness. lie was extremely taCiturn in his
manner-communicate little To inquirers,
and was both ignorant aud repulsi,e. In
winter he appeared frequently at the doors
of the citizens, with baskct--asked for
nothing, spoke llttle--but whatever was
given him, he took away quietly. The
only food found IN his tenement, was two
or three birds, picked for cooking, and a
few potatoes. We believe he was native
of some of the neighhoring towns, bat
OF his early life, or the motives which led
him to seek such an uncomfortable asylum
from the vaniiies of life, We have no know
leuee.
