POETRY.


From the Portsmouth Oracle.
TIE HOPE OF THE WICKED AND JUST.
The hope OF the 70icked-
A moment shall blast it,
When the breath of Jehovah
In wrath has o'erpast it;
Like the smoke that the winds in their fury are
lashing,
Or foam on the ocean, when the tempests are
dashing;
It was--and IS motifs triumphs are DER,
And the place that once knew it, shall know it
no more.
But the hope Of the Just
Is established for ever,
For God is his trust,
And that trust shall fail-neper.
The Heavens at the voice of his thunder may
shake,
The earth at the flash of his lightning may
quake,
But their hope and their trust shall be ever the
same,
Unfading, unchanSing his name.

against all men in office-but merely against
the base, the ireac < rous, the selfish, the I'M
worthy. Against such, an unconditional war
is declared. The editors will make no truce,
no compromise with corruption. But the
well meaning, honest man, will find in them
an advocate, protector from the machina-
tons of envy-his character shall be holy.
Nothing libelIous, indecent, or licentions,
shall be admitted into this paper; and no TN.
necessary asperity shall be used and asperity
OF any kind, when resorted to, shall always
have the good of the people as its ultimate
object.
