Nor prize the favour Of a FREUD
Who on my humble homage lives;
But, II from carelessness or art,

II would not wound my naughty heart
To breathe that little word " forgive"
Forgiveness! Ills the sacred stream.
That murmurs through the injured breast
Where fingers loves retiring beam,
That soothes contcnd,pg thoughts to rest.
Forgiveness it's the sweetest air
That trembles on the Tyre Of Heaven,
For all who swell the peen there.
Can sing Of sins and faults forgiven. 80

The Sag Harbor Corrector Of the 18th inst.
states, that on Sunday or Monday morning last
the sloop Fair American, from St. Bartholo-
news fo- New.Haven, ran ashore at the inlet
Of Shnocau Bay, Southampton.
"The crew landed dry shod, and traced the
beach for the purpose of discovering what part
of the world they were in. After travelling
some distance, and discovering no traces of in
habitants, appalled, by the ominous spectacle OF
an old wreck, they very quickly retraced their
steps to their own vessel, and commenced throw
ing overheard quantity Of fruit, whether for
the purpose of trying the current, the soundings,
or lighting the vessel, the deponent sayeth not;
but let the purpose be what it would it had a
good efect-for many of the oranges being
good pilots, and keeping steady helm, landed
at Southampton, which the people OF the town
observing, followed the trail OF the oranges un.
til they came plump upon the vessel, which
thew boarded, and asked the master, who was
comfortably and hilosophcaAy, if not sobsrly, re.
posing in his birth, if he wanted any assistance!
No, was the reply; that he intended to make
sail as soon as the tide rose-although then
high and dry. !,
The people were ssked how long they had
been there Answered, one or t,Co days!
On the next day, however, the master, after
casting up his accounts, and having run out his
dead reckoning, came to the conclusion OF aban-
doning his vessel TO the beach or Underwriters;
and gave her up to the Ureck master, an officer
"made and appointed by the good people OF
this state" for al. like and similar occasions.
We understand by The collector Of this port,
who has been on the spot-that the cargo, con-
sisting principally of thirty hogsheads Of mo-
lasses, will be chiefly saved, and vessel proba-
bly, lost.
The sum of five hundred and sixty-four dol
lars was collected last evening at the Old South
Church, in aid Of the funds Of the Howard Be-
nevolent Society. Bosfo" GaS.

A HERMIT.

It is stated in the Thomastown Maine Re-
eister, that there has resided for a number of
years past, in the back part of the town OF
Montyille, a hermit of the name OF Barrett. He
has dwelt in cave, the work OF his own hands
dug on the bank of small river, and carefully
secured at the entrance against the intrusion
of wild beasts, by large log, sufficiently hol'
low to admit ofhis entering. He REJECTS every
kind of luxury which maybe offered him, the
fruits Of the earth that grow spontaneously In
the woods around him being his only food; wa
ter from the limped stream his only drink
Since his retirement from the world, ne has
copied>the Bible twice, once on paper, & once
on the bark Of the birch tree.
About year since he moved from his cave
in Muntvile farther into the woods, the country
having become so much settled around him,
that he was frequently annoyed by visitors. he
was the son Of a respectable in Massa-
chusetts, who obliged him to marry woman
he disliked, having previously formed an attach
ment to another He lived with his wife buta
short time, when it is said, rather than endure
the society of her he could not love, he deter
mined to forsake the world and Its pleasures,
and secretly left his native town Tor Maine, and
took up his abode in the wilderness.
Real Fslicity-"O!'' said a young lady at a
party, while looking at the landscape that was
paint, on the plate she had in her hand. What
a beautiful cottage, should admire to live in
lust such an one all the days of my life. The
Young gentleman that stood by her, anxious to
know wha, would plase her, look'd very ten
a..,r =, Tho ,;c,nre and found il was steam.

Caution to Purchasers

The great demand and wonderful success ofthis me-
dicne, have induced anmber of persons to initiate it
in various ways Some selling sarsaparella and o.
theI syrups imposing them on the Ignorant for the Pa
nacea; others are mixing the genuine medicine with
moasses &c. making three bottles out Of one--thus
retaining some of virtues These limitations and adul
teratons have in many instances protracted the suffer-
ings Of patients in where the genuine medicine
would nave proved instantly efficacious therefore
deem it duty owe the public, to acquaint them,
that it is impossible, from the very nature of its const
tuents to be discovered by chemical analysis; and
sequenty that all other mixtures represented to be
mine and sold such. fraudulent and base mposi-
tons, calculated to deceive the ignorant and unwary.
Thegenuine medicine has my signature on label re.
presenting Hercules and the Hydra, and my name on
the seal.
Communications, postpaid, and orders from any part
ofthe world, will receive immediate attention.
UFPrinted directions accompany the medicine.

almost every remedy commonly employed for its cure,
with very little If any effect, but who, after using the
Panacea, recovered quickly and entirely He related
several instances of rapid and extraordinary restoration
to robust health from state of the most miserable
weakness and Infection wherein repeated salvatons
had produced only the mischief incident to the of

in the distribution of his medicine to the poor and
the support even ofwhoe families until cure was eff.
fected. The Professor mentioned that he had been
censlred by Surgeons and Physicians for recommend

which he owed to suffering humanity not to withhold
