; IRIS but fancy's sketch.
A liberal Friend In manners plain,
And disposition kind,
While lately chatting with wife Jane,
Thus spake to her his mind.
"What did thee do with that bank note
gave thee Seventh day,
in the receipt book, nothing's wrote;
For what then did thee pay"
"My Dear, for aught did not pay,
But stock on speculation,
In what was called, heard Friends say,
Hope'S Church and Congregation.
And truly hc's a real friend"
She said with smiling eyes,
"And on his word do depend,
That soon the stock will rise"
"I am not Of such stock aware,
And thee may know as far,
The Ae1o Mpe Stock Of Delaware;
II so, It's not at Par.
It may be that, my dearest Jane,
But give thy wishes scope,
For should it fall-why still tits plain
Thou hast stock Of Hope.
No matter then what stock thee bought,
hope thy stock will rise
hope so too.-Iane iniy thought,
Unto the Highest Prize.

IMPORTANT INVITATIONS.

PUBIC curiosity, since the perusaI OF the Presi-
oenlia message, has turned an inqusitive and scru
upizing eye over the Atlantic. Since the surren-
yer OF Cadig, Tor 1t was not capture speculation
has been excited on the subject of the next move
ment OF the Holy Alliance. That French armies
VIII be suffered to retire into winter quarters that
they VIII not be disgorged upon France, seems high.
yprooaole. In short we are inclined to the opinion,
that South America Mexico is destined to be tho
scene OF their Operations. Various rumors of this
kind have been in agitation, although nothing cer-
tam has as yet TRANSFERRED upon this subject
The President, who, beyond any other man in
this country possesses means OF intelligence thinks
mat II is probable such attempt will be made, or
ne would not have stated in his message that the
United States would deem it unfriendy." In short,
we incline to the opinion, that the President DOS
se'ses intelligence on this point, not communicated
to the public. All our intercourse with England.
we have the authority oil his message to saw, is of
the most nacihc character. He does not mention
one o'ert-.e made by us to that Government, that
has not been cordially embraced. To the members
OF the Holy Alliance on the other hand the message
wears countenance fr0wnng and repulsye. The
lace OF England Is neither friendly nor propitious TO
the allied monarchs, is evident from the recent
appointment OF consols, as commercial agents for
the South American Republics. Now, If these
royal parties do intend the subjugation of South A
merlca, We are strongly disposed TO think, that an
alliance will be formed, offensive and defensive bet.
ween the United States, England and the South
American Republics, as we'll with that of Mexico
Let 1t be remembered, that in the outset Of the
Spanish invasion, MIR. Canning distinctly stated to
the allied powers, that England would depart from
her neutrality, they attempted the recovery Of the
ISpanlsh Provinces in America. This was the point
TO which, therefore, they could not move without
provoking the hostility OF the English Cabinet-the
lopinion that the allies woud attempt the recovery
LOT South America was entertained by Mr.. Canning,
before the conquest of Spain, and such an opinion
is entertained by the President since that event has
been accomplished. Both Mr.. Canning and the
President, express their determination to resent any
attempt of that kind and is il reasonable to suppose
hat they should concur in SO many points, without
some common understanding between the parties
We believe that an alliance of this kind, is in antici
patton, and whether in anticipation or not, we ATE
confident that any attempt of this kind would bring
such an alliance about.
