promotion OF internal improvement, pro

that Convention, will be some OF the

Of Pennsylvania We must confess thai
II is approaching the subject With pro-
per caution md The result of their deli

great weight with the Legislature. Penn.

nothing material in diverting the trade

ly result from a spirited enterprise o
this nature.

ORIGIN OF TIE WORD ALBUM.

You ask me, Eliza, fill small nook
BY writing verse in your commonplace book;
Your book is called Album, why is it caPd SO
The true explanation is written below.
The word Album meant white, for white tablets they had,
And with chalk marked the good and with charcoal the bad.
In ancient times, when Rome in height Of pride,
Reign'd from Iberia to Euphrates' tide,
i s. p. O. II. the mighty empire sWayed,
And and peace and laws and customs made.
No paper then from linen shreds wrought,
Nor art of printing 10 perfection brought,
But parchment and papyra from the Nile,
| And waxen tablets graved with pom ed style,
Received the mighty names OF men renowned,
IN and arms with bays and laurel crowned
One hundred noble men of age mature
Composed The Senate destined to endure
Forever, as they proudly intimate.
| !" The sempltelnal council of he State"
| These hundred names, in order due enrolled,
Were called the Senae's album. Hence are told
| Your pretty commonplace book takes its name,
In which hundred friends may do the same,
As did the Senators their names enrol,
And add verse to lengthen out the scroll.
IS. p. Q. r. The usual abbreviation for Senatus
