SECTIONAL PREJUDICES.

we have long viewed with pain, the
manifestations OF distrust and contemptu-
Gus aversion to every thing Yankee, which
frequently occur in Virginia, even among
people, whose station and opportunities,
not only coll for more liberal principles,
but constitute them patterns upon which
their less enlightened neighbors mould
their opinions.
IL must be evident to every rejecting
mind that this growing jealousy between
the different sections of our Union, is a
crying evil which it is the duty of every
man solicitous for the well being of his
country to combat with all his heart and
with all his strength; and in order to rem
der these efforts availing, we should begin
by lnQuiring into the cause of this unfortu-
nate condition ofpublic feeling-not among
men whose pursuits have been literary or
scientific, for they must know better, and
when they join in the hue and cry, it can
be traced to a much less excuSable motive.
viz. blind anu reckless porty spirit blu,
among the honest, though unenlightened
multitude, who feel what they express, and
believe what they are told. These natur-
ally form their opinions from the samples
before them. They see our country peri
odically overrun by host OF unprinci pied
vagabonds, lying, cheating and stealing
wherever an opportunity occurs, and regard
them as fair sample Of the people O.
NewEngland.

in shedding light upon all subjects which
like the present, nearly and deeply affec
even the very existence of our confedera
ton. 1t becomes their duty to say, that tn
men to whom they are in the habit of az
plying the disrespectful epithet at til
head of this article are hardy, industr
GUS, pains-taking race, to whom we are il
debted for the first decisive step towards
resistance of British tyrrany, and conse
quent establishment of our independence

A COLLOQUY WITH MYSELF
BY BERNARD BARTON

BY BERNARD BARTON.
As | walked by myself, | talked to myself
And myself replied me
And the questions myself then put to myself
With their answers give to thee
Put them home to thyself, and if unto thysel
Their responses the same should be.
O look well TO myself, and beware of thyself
Or so much the worse for thee.
What are Riches2 Hoarded treasures
May, indeed, thy Golfers fill
Yet, like earth's most fleeing pleasures,
Leave thee poor and heartless still.
What are Pleasures? When afforded.
But by gauds which pass away
Read their fate in lines recorded
On the sea-sands yesterday.
What is Fashion, Ask of folly.
She her worth can best express
What is moping melancholy
Go and learn of idleness
What is TRUTH Too stern preacher
For the prosperous and the gay;
But safe and wholesome teacher
In adversity's dark day.
What is Friendship If well founded,
Like some beacon's heavenward glow;
II on false prctensions grounded
Like the treach'rous sands below
What is Love Heartily only,
Like meteor of the night
Shining but to leave more lonely
Hearts that hail'd its transient light.
But, when calm, refined and tender,
Purified from passions stain,
Like the moon in gentle splendor,
Ruling DER the peaceful main.
What are Hopes, but CLEANS Of brightness,
CHANGING darkest clouds between?
Or toam-crested waves, whose whiteness
Gladdens oceans darkest green2
What are Fears Grim phantoms, throwing
Shadows DER the pilgrims way,
Every moment darker growing,
If we yield unto their sway
What is Mrth? A flash of lightning,
Followed but by deeper gloom.
Patience More than sunshine bright ming
Sorrows path and labors doom.
What is Time A river flowing
To Eternity's vast sea,
Forward, whittier all are going,
On its bosom bearing thee.
What is Life ? A bubble floating
On that silent, rapid stream;
Few, too few its progress noting,
Till it bursts and ends the dream.
What is Death, asunder rending
Every tie we love so we'll +?
But the gate of life unending,
Joy in Heaven or wo i'll He'll
Can these truths, by repetition,
Lose their magnitude or weight
Estimate thy own condition,
Ere thou pass that fearful gate
Hast thou heard them off reneated
Much may still be left to do
Be not by profession cheatedy
LIvE-GS If thou kneao ST them true!
AS / walked by myself, talked to myself,
And myself replied to me;
And the questions myself then put to myself,
With their answers, I've given to thee.
Put them home to myself, and if unto myself
Their responses the same should be,
o look well to thyself, and beware of myself
Or SO much the worse for thee.

 The gentlemen who have determined upon the es- tabshment of this paper have not done 1t with view to any pecuniary advantage. They have higher motive and one which has long interested the feelings of moral and religious men in Boston, New-York and other cities They ready to sacrifice money, to any amount which may be required. But it IS evi- dent that accomplish any valuable purpose wide circulation must be had. good subscription list has been obtained in NewYork, but the enterprise IS new in it's character and has to contend with many and powerful obstacles. To overcome these, no labor nor expense the part of the projectors or the Ed- tors will be spared. And they invite the hearty CO., of the country and its civil and literary institutions upon tlc basis of Christian religion and sound mor- ality.
 The publication will be commenced as soon as the details of preparation can be arranged And 1t IS re- uuested that names should be returned soon without York. DAVID HALE.
