LINES BY DERMODY.

IN cold empty garnet conented sit,
With no sparks to me but sparks OF old wit
On crazy black stool doeful dties sing
And poor as a beggar, am best as king,
Then why should envy the great folks and proud,
Since Gods gave to what he took from the crowd
My pen is my sceptre; my night-cap my CROWN
All circled with aures SO comey and brown.
Nor am so poweress people may think;
For 10 like all kings can spill floods of ink;
Fight armies of mice tear huge spiders at will,
And murder whole fleets with the point of quill.
Wag the world as it list, am still queer nag;
And my nodde is full, though right hollow my bag,
No money hoard up for money is dirt;
And of that I've enough, very much to my hurt,
Yet should shlings hop in at some prosperous time
They jingle so pretty, keep them to chime
Some sages may pirate of their laws out OF season,
And reason on matters without rhyme or reason,
But am no such pagan nfdel grown,
To Providence thwart by odd schemes of my own;
And, surely grave signors twould seem very odd,
For the lord of garnet to cross his Lord God.
No, no he is just not like poor earthern elves,
That scrapc up from others to cover themselves;
Who treat the bare drudget of genius with laughter,
And labor so here, sure they think no hereafter,
For certainly clay. numbered logs, ever counting,
As Dominic has it, " were ne'er made for mounting"
Here's health then to Fate, and Fortune her daughter
(sIss.forune mean,) though Pm sorry tits water,
Yet water itself, sirs may toast such madam
For twas wine, beer and rum in the fair days of Adam
So why may not then imagine it caret
For his taste as fine, as his sons in garrett

As we are fortunately unacquainted with tic verna-
cuIar language employed by the politicians of "OId
Kentucky" we frankly acknowledge the error into
which we, with al men Of humble abilities aud common
sense, were inadvertently led, when we imagined that TO
charge a man with possessing and practising the princi-
pies which characterize an association of high way
men and pick pockets, was to call him a "high-way.man
and ptck-pocket." We discover, however, Lhat these
terms have no such Specification in the political slang Of
Kentucky; and we are really glad dat Mr.. Nicholas, of
the "kentucky Wing" has respect enough for the de-
ceocios of society, to deny that he intended to cast any
such imPutation upon his adyersaries of the Relief Par
ty. In relation to the denunciation against us of igno-
rance and dcstitution Of the nicer feelings Of the heart,
we have only TO say, that in respect TO the former, we do
not consider him a competent jndge, and in regard to the
latter, we are DOT in 1.-The habit Of noticing trash and non
sense of that character.

Yard on the s5th inst. and dropped
down to the quarantine dock at Staten

The winter appears to have been re-

The Richmond Enquirer, and Peters

be the deepest that had been experien-

1t is rumored in Philadelphia, that
Joseph Bonaparte has purchased the
lot between Market and Chestnut and
Eleventh and Twelfth streets, and is
about to erect on it a Mansion for his
Family. -
The Richmond Wing, which we look
upon as constitutional sentinelEfaith.
full and sufficiently stern, makes the
following judicious remarks. They de-
serve to be read and their admonition.
to be appreciated.
GA vigilant attention to the opera
ton of the government, and promp'
exposure Of violations of the constitu
ton, are the duties Of all citizens: ant
when those duties are performed with
particular zeal, they deserve the com
mendation and thanks Of good men
But on the other hand there is some
danger Of disgustingathe public by Sc
frequent acquisitions on its attention, 8
Of destroying its interest, by so fire
quent appeals to its sensibility. W.
hambly think, that there is too much
Glamour about violations, and perhaps
too great a disposition to spy them out
where they do not exist, or at least
where they are not intended. Tn.
strength Of the friends ofa rigid con
structiou should be reserved for a grea
and serious struggle to give their prin
ciples the ascendency, and not be vast
