MY HARP!
Come, gentle harp, and let me hold
Communion with thy melody.
And be my tale of sorrow told
To thee, my harp, and only thee.
There are who marvel should Irvine
My wreath of flowers, whose bloom is gone
And wonder hand so light as mine
Should linger but to sorrows tone.
They say that life, to one so young.
Must be sweet and sunny view
They know not how my soul has chung
To hope, and found that hope untrue.
They know not that smile for me
Is but the feignlng masquer's art
That each low note draw from thee
Is the sad echo of my heart.

From the London .Iorning Chronicle

From the London .liorning Chronicle, Dec. O..
lhe American papers received yesterday con-
tain the accounts of the opening of Congress, and
the messag of the President of the United States,
The communication Of the chief Office bearer Of
the great republic to The legislature at this critical
period, when the ambition Of kings, not satisfied
with the calamity which it has occasoned in Europe
threatens to rekindle the flames Of war Throughout
the western hemisphere, was looked forward to
with the utmost anxiety. 1t is worthy Of the &C.
cas'on and of the people destined to occupy so large
space in The future history of The world.
What contrast between the manly plainness Of
this state paper, and the machiavelism and bypoc'
risy oil the declarations and manifesos Of the gOS-
ernments OF this part of the world
Whatever lately were the intentions Of the French
ministers respecting South America it is now a''
serted, from undoubted authority, that English
policy has prevailed in Paris over that oil Russaa0a
that not only will France not assist Spain IN any
attempt to subjugate her former American colonies
out viii view, not with Indifference, any support
which Russia or any other nation may lend her lOr
TINS purpose. This is certainly wise resolution
on the part OF the French government Tor TINS
independence OF the new American states mu"
extend their commerce, and thereby increase Inc
Of Frenchmen.
Russia blocked up nearly half the year by i'm
penetrable ice, can never partake OF southern COM
merce until port be opened for her in the Oar
daneiles, and hence the anxiety exhibited BY hef
TO involve france IN the expensive and hoPeesSs
employ of restoring America to the yoke o.
the Bourbons, for without this or some other occu'
patton for the French armies, and the British navy
he has not the most distant chance OF accomplish
ing the long and ardenily cherished design OF DIS
empire against ancient Greece, now in possession
This union OF France and England, in the gre@
cause OF American independence, is another strong
ground tor expecting the continuation OF the PIES
sings OF peace, and consequently an improvement
IN the public credit of nations. The speech oil I"S
PRESIDENT OF the United States, so full oil wisoop
and just ideas, has, however, had more effect on 's
opinions of the dealers in national securities ihaI
the abundance of money, or the changed policy ~ )"
France, for in j, they suffcien; guarantee ~,
the maintenance of the freedom of the America"
continent. There is no part however, of this speech
which can afford more genuine satisfaction to every
civilized nation, Than the notice which il takes"
the extraordinary and gallant struggle made at prs
sent by the Greeks in the cause Of genersl 'hoe'
pendence.
