lbe confirmed in his course Of fidelity and obedience
to the laws by the consideration that an honorable
discharge would put him in possession OF sum
Sufficient to sustain him in transferring his industry,
Ilf he should think proper, to new pursuit. In
the meantime, if he should desert the sum retained
from his pay would, in some cases, be sufficient,
and in all cases, go far towards enabling the Govern,
men to provide recruit TO supply his place, Thus,
The expense of filling vacancies occasionally vio-
lation of the laws would principally fall as in jus
lice it ought, upon the offenders themselves, and
nor upon the public, against which the offence is
committed.
The more reflect upon this subject, the more
firmly am strengthened in the conviction that the
frequency Of desertion will be materially abridged
by the measure which have the honor TO suggest.
If my position is correct, it will be apparent that
the efficacy OF the army will be augmented, that
its moral character will be elevated, and that the
branch Of public expenditures heretofore referred
to will be brought within the smallest limits to which
under the most favorable circumstances, it is
ceplibe OF being reduced IT it should be found
by experience that this is Intellectual, and
that it is necessary, by severe and humilia;ing pen
alties, to punish, where interest and the Of
moral obligation inadequate TO restrain, it will be
a consolation to reflect, when compelled to
have recourse to expedents like these, that those
OF mder character have been exhausted"

new ground of impeachment of Judge has
been d covered bysome OF our fellow citizens nKen-
lucky In the house OF representatives OF that state,
"a preamble and resolution introduced the
Sd instant, for impeachug Stas w. Robbins of
hieh crimes and misdemeanors, &c. " The charges
against him." says the editor of the print now be-
lore u.s. "are OF a nature well calculated to excite
the public mind and create prejudice against the
Judge, and, il true, cunsgn him 10 merlted obscu-
riiy and contempt" We shall not go through the
whole of them, but pass on to the 18th, which
seems to be the most weghty, and by which the
reader may form some idea OF the odour in which
the Hartford Convention is in the state OF Kentucky.
This charge is in the following words -
g Charge Is. That the said Judge has discover
ed uaitorous disposition to the government Of the
United States OF America in this That, during
he late war between Great Britain and the United
States, said Judge Robbins, then residing in Win
chester. Kentucky, ard baseiy abandoning the du-
ties Of an American citizen, and treacherousiy be-
traying those principles established and consecrat
ed by the blood OF the Revolution, did, then and
there, the drelul ssily, and openly advo-
Gated The detestable doctrines OF the Hartford Con-
venton.''

ELEGIAC ODE.

WHEN the stroke of the woodman had ceased in the vale
And the sweet Phlomela had finished her song;
sage child of sorrow repeated his tale,
And sighed TO the it murmured along.
81 have the glad prospect which led me astray
Change It's lusre and fade like the tins Of the morn
have seen the meridian spendor of day,
But night has succeeded and found me fororn.
g have seem passed, how the blushing gay,
To the gale OF the morning its bosom dispayed;
returned but its beauties had faded away,
81 have Ooh how lovely } the maid of the dale,
Flushed with health and with beauty riumphantly tread
But alas neither beauty health could avail,
For all that was lovely with Laura is dead.
" How delusive is hope oh how transient the stay
OF the sunbeam that gls our terrestrial scene
How short is the pleasure Of mans brightest day,
And the blasts Of misfortune how pieFcingy KEEN
" How blank is the prospect, how gloomy the day,
Which is bounded with care and oershadowed with woe
How1lreary unsocal, and cherries the way,
Which the children Of sorrow must wander below
. Oh when shall the pilgrim. arrive at ais home,
And man TO his parent in gadness return;
Oh when shall our be lost in the tomb,
And the @retched forget with the wretched TO mourn
Thus nightly he sung, and tie SWANS loved to hear,
For his accents We're gentle and mild as The dew,
Till they dropped Der his tale of misfortune tear,
And shrunk from the world and the picture he drew

| BURNING LIME WITH sUseuEHANNA COAL.
Eftract Of letter from gentleman in Chester
| County, Pennsylvania.
| 6 am fully satisfied, from the result of the ex
pertinent | have made, that lime may be burned
with Susquehanna coal, purchased al Columbia. al
the rate OF 81 50 OF IS per ton; cheaper than with
wood delivered al The Rim at So 80, and | do not
know but on better terms than at So per cord. Nv
experiment was made IN one OF the new kilns. with
two tons Of coal to 700 bushels OF lime The meth.
| cd adopted was, TO turn small or low arch and
break all the balance of the stone so small that none
should exceed the size of an half gallon Jug the
kiln was then filled, by first putting heaps of coal
OF about one peck and half, about twenty inches
apart; then covering of lime stone then coal ;
and so on, alternately to the top Of the kiln then
burned one and half cords Of wood, Just sufficient
to warm the kiln and ignite he coal. Which is all
the attention it requires You may then go to meet
ing, mill or market, or any other pursuit you please;
the coal will make the most intense and melting
heat, that it is possible to conc Give. My kiln was
red hot for FIVE days, and the lime burnt 10 perfec.
tlon surprising any ever saw.
consider the hard Susquehanna coal, as great
acquisition to our country and, in my opinion, has
lowered the value of wood land, where the object is
wood for the purpose of burning lime.
propose making another experiment this win
er, as 1t is evident that used much more coal in
the hrst experiment than was necessary to effect
the object beside the kiln was one of the ordinary
kind, used in burning lime with wood Mach fuel
may be saved by a proper Constructed kiln for the
use OF coa--it may be built much higher than for
wood, without being subject to the same inconve
nence that wood kilns are, from that cause as the
iuel will be spread through the whole body of the
stone, producing the requisite degree of heat 10 all
parts, while the heat produced from the lower part
oil the Kiln will have beneficial effect in tic &C
cent.
