sTANZAs TO MUSIC.
Music tits thine TO comfort, cheer
The heart with care and woe Oppressed;
TO shed around our pathway here,
The light Of song TO soothe the breast.
Thy voice is sweet in mirthful hall,
When through the mazy dance we glide;
Or where the ripping waters fall
Meandering down the groen-hill's side.
Or whether in somo lonely bower
Where roses breathe their incense sweet,
At lingering twlight's silent hour,
Two youthful lovers fondly meet.
And strains Of harmony arise
That fill with melody the air,
AS if some seraph of the skies
Were breathing out his wild notes there.
How sweet to linger near the spot
Where mcm'ry weeps the spoils oftime,
All earthly feelings are forgot,
We soar above the world sublime.
And f somo aged Bard whose hand
With trembling fingers sweeps tho Tyre,
In sorrow near the ruin stand,
Bent DER the ashes Of his src--
And sings the joys Of former days,
When all was fair, when all was young;
When beauty wals'd the mnstrol's lays,
And valor lstend as ho sung.
But ah those days of bliss have flown,
That happiness too bright TO last;
And left mo wretched and alono
n sad momcnto Of the past.
Here Music is thy sweetest power,
When mingled joy and grief appears
md throws a charm around tho hour
TO brighten through succeeding years.

sp1F.Moy1NG WATER WHEEL.

SRIF.MOvING WATER WHEEL. .
We were grati6ed on Saturday afternoon win
.be view of an ingenious, but very simply con-
s,ructed piece Of machinery, which, as lar a.
our limited means of Judging, and the u'he We
could devote to its examination, approaches
nearer to perpetual motion, than any thhg we
have seen. We must not be supposed 10 thihk
that the long sought for combination OF ma,
chinery which would give uninterrupted ana
nnceasinp motion, has at length been discover
ed. We believe no such thing; but on the con
trarv. that mortal man will never penetrate so
far into the mysteries of Nature, as 10 give TO
anv combination Of matter, the continued mo-
lion. order and regularity, which is observed IN
every thing emanating directly from the unfath'
omable and unbounded power OF the Creator
The Self moving Water Wheel, is however
an object Of great curiosity, and 10 US. unVersed
as we are in such matters, is past hnding out
We hope it will be speedily and carefully ex'
amined by those who are competent 10 speak
Of its merits, discover its defects, and point out
its usefulness. The opinion of few gentle
men who could be selected from among the
learned Of our own city, would be satisfactory
TO the public, and we mention this for the pur-
pose of turning the attention OF the ingenious
inventor, Mr.. GreeHbury Baxter, OF this city,
and those who may be concerned with him, 10
the importance Of obtaining scientific verdict
in the case. We will try 10 give our readers
faint idea Of the mac hinery.
The Water Wheel is constructed with bu'k'
cts, which are filled with water from horizon
tai acoueduct or canal, into which the water is
pumped by double pump from reservoir be-
low, and the buckets are emptied at each reVo-
luton Of the wheel, so that on The one SIDE OF
the wheel they 60 dozen filled with water, and 60
up empty on the other side. This, TO be sure,
would carry the wheel forever, ii the water last
ed as long but the puzzle is, how the same ina
chinery should pump The water from the reser-
yor at the lower periphery OF the wheel, into
the acoueduct on level with the upper perl
phery OF the same Wheel and after the machine.
ry is once put in motion, continue IN motion
without ex,raneous aid, and continue 10 increase
rather than decrease in velocity. Such was ME
exhibition we saw on Saturday. Attached 10
the water wheel is hy wheel and three cog
wheels; The latter, by means OF crank and shalt,
are connected with the double break OF the
pumps; and when Mr.. Baxter gave impetus 10
the machinery by slight application OF per-
sonal power, for not more than 10 seconds, eve
ry part was in successful operation, and contin-
ued so, of its own apparent motion, with power
more than was required 10 turn lathe, at which
mechanic was employed during our visit.
Dsqu Allied as we are 10 pronounce upon the
merits of this invention,we can only add, that 1t
is worthy the attention Of scientific men and Gu
rious inqurers in the useful arts.

MEssRs EDIroRs: The attention of the peo-
pie Of Virginia, at least in our section OF the
State, has been reused from its lethargy, by this
new-fanele1 "combination,' for the purpose Of
placing Jackson, Calhoun, Van Buren,, Benton
and Hamilton, perhaps, in the seats now occu-
pied by Adams, Clay, Barbour, Rush and 9th
ers, agains, whom the people, in fact, have no.
thing to alledge. This coordination" is carry
ing its presump,ions little too far: they pre-
sumo on directing the vote of the people at the
next Pre- sidential election, with view 10 their
Own special elevation. Any combination got
up for the purpose of directing the vote OF this
nation, ought to appear before the people per-
fectly disinterested, and ought to be composed
Of men not even suspected Of a wish to displace
others, with view exclusively to the occupan-
cy themselves of their places. Now what is
the object Of this combination! They have
themselves openly declared what that object is;
and they have done it under circumstances pre-
sumptuously regardless of the intelligence and
disinterested views of the people And what
are the means by which they expect to accom-
tina, the existing administration is corrupt
That accusation has failed: no intelligent man
now regards its. Do they expect to show tina, i,
is incapable? No man, except Duff Green, would
hazard his character for intelligence on such an
allegation. Do they then intend to show that
their names are John @. Adams, Henry Clay,
James Barbour, Sc, and that Andrew Jackson,
Martin Van Buren,, John c. Calhoun, SC. will
sound more melodiously in the ears Of the peo-
pie! Or do theyIintend TO effect their objectby
loading them with falsehood, Misrepresentation
and abuse, until they are crushed into such
state OF deformity, that all Office hunters, dema-
gogues, sycophants, and the other noisy rabble
ofthe nation shall cry out, with the "comdina-
tion," away with them,-we will have Jackson
for King: as for this Adams he has done no.
thing for us; and as for his advice about semi.
naries 81 learning and improving the country,
it is all stunt There is Giles and Clinton, and
Van Buren,, and Macon, and great many 9th

And birds and flowers their homage pay,
In Song and incense breathed to heaveni
Accept the tribute of friend,
Whose humble heart for thee is glowing
Who prays thy way of life may bend
Through highland How'rs forever blowing.
What filthy form, thine air, thy smile,
Should shake the Theorists sober reason,
Or fifty Benedict's beguile
With charms that grace the bue-eyed season:
Beware the mnstrel's Aatt'ring strain,

Invokes the phantoms of The brain
To prove thine eyes are heavens portal!

And ere they dreamptits hast'ning doom,
Itbreathed, it bloomed, collapsed and withered
Thus youth and beauty fill the eye
ofrapturc oft, in summer weather;
And time scarce rolls the season by,
When, with the leaf, they fade together,
IF such are ever fashions joys,

To lure the soul to woes tomorrow:

REPORT:
That they have performed that duty, and find
that, during the last year, the average namber
Of boys Admitted was 10. Of these so were
taught spelling, 100 reading, writing and arith-
metic. The progress made in these several
br anches has been such as to merit the com.
mendations Of the Committee, and enlite lhc
instructor, Mr.. GEO. HAzLETT, to the spproba.
ton Of the Society.
Mrs SARAH BAXTER, the Superintendent Of
the female department, has cvinced great zeal
and talent, in the discharge Of her duties. The
average number Of female scholars last year
was lo8 They have been taught spelling,
reading, writing, arithmetic and sewing Their
progress is very satisfactory. Tie exercises OF
the school are conducted according to the Lam
easterian system, and particular attention is
paid TO the moral department OF the scholars.
The school was founded in the year 1924, by
the muni6cence Of our late President the public
spirited and generous JNO. OLIVER, Esq
During the three years that have elapsed since
that period, about 765 children have been re
ceiyed into the school, instructed and prov lded
with books, Sc. without any expense to their
parents.
AZ the last annual meeting, the Committee
OF Inspection recommended the erection OF
suitable building for the accommodation OF the
