Numerous, not to say innumerabIe, were the lii

industry in collecting donations from men, women,
and children, was such, that there was not bit oil

The patience of poor Fospe was now quite ex.
hausted -" the ID take the Dominie, cried he,
" wish he had my wet feet and empty stomach for
his nights portion with all my heart'' Just then
the Dominic entered with stately step, and sono-
rous hem = that awed the spirit Of the good yeo-
man into silent acquiescence. Terese put on her
bonnet and cloak, and accompanied the Dominic TO
the meeting, whence she did not return till almost
midnight. Poor Fospe went to bed wet and hungry,
and could not help thinking he said his prayers,
that the Dominic might be better employed than in
teaching well-meaning women, that the neglect OF
their domestic duties in this world was the surest
passport to happiness in the world to come.

AMERlCANISMS,

EGtracted from M. IngersOlps Discourse.
The United States, under the present government
have never taken life for treason.
Legislation is not only much more used, but more
orderly, systematic and eloquent in the United States,
than any where in Europe.
The Capitol at Washington is larger, more ee.
giant, and more convenient than any building in Eu-
rope, applied to Legislation.
The paintings of national history in the capitol,
are the only pictures OF that kind obtained by legis
lative enactment.
The ages of the ex-presidents exceed the dina
ry period of life in Europe.
The ex presidents have contributed more than
any satsmen of Europe, in their time, 10 literature
and science.
There is much less provincalism, or peculiarly
of dialect, in the United States, than in any nation
of Europe.
The jurisdiction of the American courts is, far
more extensive than the English, especially in the
power to annuI laws by declaring them unconsttu
tional
There is much less division Of labor in the United
States than 10 Europe.
Mechanics do their work much quicker houses,
ships, and almost every thing else being done in less
time.

The Jesuits, Sulpitians and Augustine Monks,
have establishments in the United States authorised

Beaaty.-Those who have considered the subject
will perhaps confess the truth Of the following re-
marks, which the conclusion OF an Essay ON
Beauty, 10 Blackwood's Ednburg Magazine -
But to sum up all, are there, in the class Of
beauties, fewer good wives, good mothers, good
women, and good christians, than amongst those Of
the to whom nature has been more niggardly of
outward endov ments? An impartial observer will
acknowledge that such characters found in pref
ty equal proportion, amongst the lovely and unove-
lily. But will venture to assert that there is less
ranity, less socitude about personal appearance in
pretty than in plain women. The cause is obvious:
The one is perpetuaIly striving to make herself what
nature has made the other.'

IMITATION OF
AULD LANG SYNE,
BIZ Miss BLean,ire.


BY Miss BLeamire.
When silent time in lightly foot
Had trod on thirty years,
My native lam sought again
WI mony hopes an fears.
VIVA kens gin the dear friends left,
VIII still continue mine,
Or gin e'er again shall meet
The Joys o'Lang Syne.
AS drew near my ancient pile,
My heart beat a. the way;
llk' place passed seemed yet to speak
o. some dear former day.
Those days that followed me affair."
Those happy days O. mine,
Which made me think the joys at hand
Were naething 10 Lang Syne.
The ivy towers now met my view,
Whar MINISTRIES used to baw,
Nae friends step forth WI open arms,
Nae weel kent face saw,
Till Donald tottered to the door,
Wham left in his prime;
He graf to see the lad come back,
He bore ABBOTT Lang Syne.
Idu NnEOupli nkd WGGt kent HOOStf
In hopes to meet friends there:
l saw where ilk' ane used to sit,
And hung DER ilka chair
Till saft oblivion drew her veil
Across those cen o mine
stocked the door and sobbed aloud,
AS thought on Lang Syne.
A new sprung race of motley kind,
Wad now their welcomes pay,
VIVA shudder'd at my Gothic was,
And wished my groves away
Cut, cut, they said, those gloomy trees,
Lay low that mourntu' pine
Oh ! no, my fathers name grows there,
Memorials O. Lang Syne.
From the Anti Jacobin Reriew.
When yeai are young,
And health is strong,
And all things round us smile,
Oh, let us cherish those we love,
And LIES care begulle;
For time runs on,
Aud soon its gone,
And we may grieve and pine,
For angry mind,
Or word unkInd,
In .auId Lang Syne.
CHORUS.
For every day
That fleets away
Tho passing foul or fine,
Shall reckoned be
AS one degree
Of auId tang syne.
When friends grow cool,
Or play the fool,
And shew an altered mind,
Oh then's the prime
OF friendships time
To prove still kind;
So shall our days
Roll Ger In ease,
And rough and smooth combine,
Still to endear,
Each passing year
OF aud lang Syne.
