pire OF deat!---we ask ourselves, whittier at this
moment is the spirit of the departed: the involunta-
ry answer is, where we shall shortly be. Strange
that when death spreads among Oxen into the
social cisc)e, aud spares neither at the resde,
at the festive board, we should live in much
seeming forgctfulness of his existence. Well hath
it been said
.Man sleeps, and man alone, anu man whose fate,
.Fate irreversible, entire, extreme,
"Endless, hair hung, breeze shaken, DER the gulf,
"a moment trcm,b!ss, drops, aud men for whom,
,sAil else is in alarm; man the sole cause
sOf his Surrounding storm-and yet he sleeps
GAS the storm rock d to rest"

Tie mgusition.--In work entitled Letters
.Nor,nu,,fes published i'm Paris in $50, we find
the following account Of mode OF torture prslc-
tised in the iuquistion ut Toledo, which may
claim at least the praise of ingenuity.
II'o,tsmouth Jour.
"General Lasalle, being at Toledo, went to
visit tire palace of the inGuisition; Tor IN Spain
the humility of inqusitors is like that of other
monks, it wears coarse cloak and dwells in
marble palace. At sight of the instruments of
torture the General, as well as the officers who
| we're with hun, was seen to shuddcr; for it was
| more horrible than any thing presented by hcld
of battle. Among these instruments, there was
one which more particularly liked tue attention
OF the visitants, by giving the impression of a
sort of sacriege. AT the farther end of a sub
teraneous dungeon, near the chair of the inqui-
stor whose duty il was to interrogate those who
were accused of hcrcsy, there was placed in a
niche statue of the Virgin. golden halo
| surrounded her head, and her drapcry descend
ed in sken folds from her shoulders to her feet
| In her right hand she held the ancient standard
of the kings, and brcast-plate was just visible
under the folds of her robe. Altogether the
statue rcsembled that of Joan of Arc at Or
| leans. On examining it little nearer, they
perceived that the breast-plate was glistcnng
with the points of vast number of little knives.
and of nails sharpcned like needles. The arms
of the statue were movable, and handle
placed behind the partition regulated its mo-
tons. General Lasalle gave orders for putting
the machine in operation; and the sack ola Po-
fish grenader was put in the place of the here
tic. When the handle was turned, the statue
extended its arms and pressed the sack closely
to its brcast.-Whcn 1T relaxed its grasp, the
sack was found to be a perfect seivc, it was
perceived with Thousand holes, and the knives
had entered some lines in depth. Thus the
merciful Ny, the mother of the Saviour of
men, became in the hands of mquisitors the
bloody instrument of Eanaticisn; aud that no
thing might be wanting tn this horrible profana-
ton, they called this image by odous pun
Or Ladyof Sorroes. Malre doIorosa] Such
are the institutions which the friends of good
government and legitimate monarchy wish to
re- establish III Spain.

THE INDIAN MAIDS LAMENT.
AN inciau maid was sitting where
Her lover slain in battle slept;
Her maiden veil. her own black hair 81
Game down oer eyes that wcpt.
Aud wildly in her Woodland tongue,
This sad aud simple lay she sung.
Pve pulled away the shrubs that grew
Too close upon thy sleeping head,
And broke the forest boughs that threw
Their shadows DER ;hy bed.
That shining from the sweet south west,
The sunbeams might rejoice thy rest.
II was a lang and weary road
That led thee TO the plea SAINT coast
Where thou in his serene abode
Hast met thy fathers ghost;
Where everlasting autumn lies
On the still fields and sunny skies.
Twas I the broide,ed rnockscn made
That shod thee for that distant land,
Twas thy bows and arrows laid,
Beside thy still cold hand;-
Thy bow in many IA battle bent,
Thy arrows never vainly sent.
With wampum belts cross'd thy breast,
AMI wrapt thee in bison's hide,
Aud laid the food that pleased thee best
In plenty by thy side,
And decked thee bravery as DeCatno
A warrior ofillustrious name.
Thou'rt happy now, for thou hast past
The darksome journey of the grave,
And in the land OF light at last,
Has joined the good and brave:
Amid the flush'd and balmy air,
The bravest and loveliest there.
Yet tn thy own dear Indian maid
Thy tho'ts will sometime earthward stray;
To her who sits where thou art laid,
And weeps the hours away.
Yes! almost can her grief forget,
To think that thou dost love her yet
And thou, by one of those calm lakes
That in shining cluster lie,
On which the south wind scarcely breaks
The image of the sky,
Has built bower for thee and me
Beneath the tow'ring tnlip-trec.
Aud dost thou wait and watch to meet
My spirit sent TO join the blcst;
And wondering what dctains my feet
From the bright laud of rest,
Dost seem in every sound to hear
The rustiins of my footsteps near.

oy legislative coercion, 10 increase the profits OF
capital IN some parts of the country to the ex-
ciuSion OF others; that il would produce none Of
inc advantages which its friends contend for, but
contrary and injurious effects; that manufactu-
res have full share OF the national protection

TO add to 1t; that the example of Great Britain,
