The Official note Of the Spanish ministry 70 The
foreign ministers residing at that Court. is as we'll
a literary as political curiosity. We must con.
tent ourselves Tor the present. only with one pas
sage. " The Legitimacy OF Kings come. from Cod,
and in virtue OF II they are absolute masters 10 CT
fec, in their kingdoms and amongst their subjects,
whatever changes they may think proper. without
being bound to render account thereof TO any
body on earth, or to ask the consent OF other cove
reigns much less OF their ambassadors" How
shortly and smoothly does this train OF Spanish ar
gument proceed. Kings derive their Legitimacy
from God, fact which when once granted, renders
il impossible for them to become tyrans afterwards
The Spanish minister from such premises draws
his conclusion logically enough" They are there
fore absolute masters 10 effect in their Kingdoms
and amongst their subjects whatever changes they
may think proper'-that is, they may fine and en-
dungeon human victims, load them with chains or
cut off their heads whenever they may think pro-
per, because they derive their Legitimacy from

The Mayor Of .NsW FORK 1T gives US pleasure
to perceive that Mayor is not unmindful OF
the duties which his Office, as the father of the city
have imposed upon him. He was among the first
at the FIRE yesterday al Peck slip, assisting with his
counsel 10 put it out and seeing that there was no
unnecessary waste and sacrifice Of property. We
do not mention this solitary instance OF his &C.
tivity. He is found daily visiting different parts OF
the city and seeing with his own eyes. that the laws
not infringed, and that the officers employed by
the Corporation do their duly.-This is as it shoul
be. The want Of such mayor has long been iet
in New York. Perhaps we may soon find that Boston
itself, is to be envied for its acting and in
lelligent Chief magistrate. The leyee which he
gives every Friday evening at his superb rooms
is in good state and highly BETTING his station.

Fair as the modest rose, that bends
Beneath morning sky,
Whose blushing beauty summer lends,
To bloom so transienty,
Thou once appeared, as mild, as fair,
Alas and fral as roses are,
So early doomed TO die;
For ere their noon Of youthful light
Thine eyes of love were set in night!
Alas L! could not see thee fade,
Before the blasting power;
Nor mark the sweetest blossom laios
The victim of an hour;
could not gaze upon thy bier,
! could not yield one kindly tear,
Yet heard thy coffin lower;
For oh twas more than love could bear,
To know thee Dead and buried here
Those eyes have lost their laughing light,
And graceess is thy brow;
And where the roses hue was bright,
The worm is feeding
Where dmplng smiles and bushes chased,
Death views thy changeless features waste,
Exulting in our woe,
And nothing ls known of thee,
But that thou was--and ceased to be.
Yet-art thou gone where grief is not.
Nor pain, nor earthly i'll,
To smile upon brighter spot,
And be angel still!
oh! let thy spirit hover near,
To chase my every doubt OF fear,
As Hope assures it will;
And whisper in thine angel strains
That we shall henceforth meet again. A. Q.
