ADDRESS TO A TEAR

PeIucid drop Of sacred dew!
From sorrows Briny fountain shed,
That from the eve Of daildest blue,
,Fall'st on the cheek of softest red.
Sweet tear. what orient gem reveals
A ,ustre othe sun rnore bright,
Than what thv limpid bosom steals
From the mild eye that swims in light.
Offspring Of sorrow, and its care!
That through the eve relieves the heart,
A. the descending rain drops pure,
Exhaust the clouds from which they part
cts to the heart thou giv'st relief,
As dews the psrching flow'rets cheer;
Sweet the ecstacy Of grief!
AMI sweet the rapture of tear!
Hail little sphere of ray serene!
love thee forsweet JULIA's sake:
Thou prov'st hsr heart to feeling keen.
To Natures loveliest claims awake.
Pure is her bosom IS thine own,
Now trembling in her cheek so fail;
That well might tempt an angel down,
To kiss thee from the roses there.

Patent Elastic Saddles.

WORD TO THOSE WHO ARE POND OF EASY
RIDING.
The complaint against hard and uneasy
saddles, which is for the ,;ost part just
and general one, and is really great grie.
vance 10 those who have much riding to
do, has caused him to turn his mind par
ticularly to that subject. With view, II
possible, to remedy the evil. He can
with confidence assure the public that be
has accomplished it. The plan projected
is by means OF strong and well tempered
steel springs, so constructed as to support
the saddle seat and give much greater ease
to both rider aud horse, than saddles made
IN the common way or any other that he
has ever seen can possibly do. The plan
is entirely different from the English elias
tic saddles with spring bars OF sleel
whalebone, &c. and also from those with
wire springs, and be conceives much su.
perior to either, as the elasticity IS great.
er, and The tree not being put out OF its o.
rieinal form, will not be subject TO hurting
horses ON Journeys, which is complained
of in The saddles With spring bars. A
number of gentlemen have those saddles
now in use, and but one sentiment exists
among them in favor of theii superiority.
The invention is equally as applicable 10
ladies' saddles as to genllemen's. In
point of durability they will be war anted
equal to any other saddles aud superior to
most. jAMCo VANoANI.

the opposition he made, has been carried by
the COrtes from Seville TO Cadiz, where the

Phil Gaz.
august l.-Walter Dorsey, Esq. distin-
guished Judge of Baltimore, died in this city
yesterday morning. He had been with his
family 10 Cape May, where he was seized
with an apoplectic fiji. A day or two ago he
was second time attacked, which terminated
in the melancholy event here announced. Id.
IT, as stated, the king has arrived at Cadiz,

people to his removal from Seville, which
they seemed to calculate upon T.4tvord.

The hlDg of Spain and suite arrived at Ca

OF June. The troops of the garrison, and the
national militia occupied the public square,
and an immense crowd GIltd the streets, win
dows and balconies. The municipal authori-
ties received the King at The entrance, where
the governor Of the fortress delivered to him
the keys Of the city with the usual formaliiies,
and he was congratulated on his arrival in the
name Of the inhabitants.
"I'he enthusiasm" says the Cadiz Gazette.
which was manifested on this memorable
occasion, confirmed the opinion which we On
iertained Of The patriotism and srnsibility Of
the people; union and harmony were seen on
