THE TRUMPET.-BY MRS. HEMANs.

liz L hUMHE BY MRS. HEMANSs
The trumpet's voice has reused the land,
Light up the beacon pyre!
A hundred hills have seen the brand,
And waved the sign of fire.
A hundred banners to the breeze
Their gorgeous folds have cast,
And bark was that the sound of seas
A king to war west past!
The chief is arming in his hall,
The peasant by his hearth;
The mourner hears the thrilling call,
And rises from the earth
The mother on her first born son
Looks with boding eye;
They come not back, though all her won,
Whose young hearts leap SO high.
The bard hath ceased his song, and bound
The talchion on his side
Fen, for the marriage altar crowned,
The lover quits his bride!
And all this haste, and change, and fear,
BY earthly clarion spread!
How will it be, when Kingdoms hear,
The blast that wakes the dead

Singular Notice.-Appended to the notice
of an intended celebration of the 4th of July
at spring near the town of Milton, N. c.
we find the following expressive nota bena !;
We have been requested to state, that the
services of Jacob Thomas and wagon have
been engaged to carry home all who may be-
come intoxicated on the occasion. We hope
their services will not be called for.-Fayette-
viIle, N. c. pap.
The Providence American says :---"The
above, nevertheless. shows decent respect
for good order and we think Mr. Jacob Thorn
as and his wagon entitled to honorable
mention for their services. If men could be
carted home on these occasions as soon as
they become intoxicated, much of the noise,
riot, and obscenity of which they are guilty
when they become little more than intoxi-
Gated, would he avoided. Besides, sufficient
disgrace might be attached to this mode of
conveyance to make people 10th to become
candidates for SO public an exhibition of their
drunken imbecility.'

From the Youths Companion,
BETTER MOMENTS.

Nv mothers voice how often creeps
Its cadence on my lonely hours!
Like healing sent on wings of sleep,
Or like dew to the unconclous flowers.
I can forget her melting prayer
While leaping pulses madly fly,
But in the still unbroken air
Her gentle tone comes stealing by,
And years, and sin, and manhood flee
And leaves me at my mothers knee.
The book of nature, and the print
y! beauty on the whispering sea,
Give aye to me some llneament
Of what have been taught to be.
My heart is harder and perhaps
My manliness has drank up tears,
And there's mildew in the lapse
Of few miserable years
But natures book is even yet
With all my mothers lessons writ.
j have been out at even tide
Beneath moonlight sky of spring,
When earth was garnish'd like bride
And night upon her silver wing
When bursting leaves, and diamond grass,
And waters leapng to the light,
And all that makes the pulses pass
With wider feetness, lhrongd the night;
When all was beauty-then | have
With friends on whom my love is flung
Like myrrh on winds of Araby.
GaZed up where evenings lamp is hung,
And when the beautiful spirit there,
Flung over me its golden chain,
My mothers voice came on the ar
Like the light dropping of the rain
And resting on some silver star
The spirit of Bonded knee,
I've pour'd her low and fervent prayer
That our eternity might be
To rise in heaven like stars at night
And tread living path Of light
have been on the dewy hills,
When night was stealing from the dawn,
And mist was on the walking rills,
And tpts were delicately drawn
In the grey East-when birds were waking
With slow murmur in the trees,
And melody by fits was breaking
Upon the whisper of the breeze,
And this when was forth, perchance
AS worn reveer from the dance
And when the sun sprang gloriously
And freely up, and hill and river
Were catching upon wave and tree
The AFRO ws from the subtle culver
say voice has thrilled me then,
Heard on the still and rushing light,
Or, creeping from the silent glen
Like words from the departing night
Hath stricken me, and | have press'd
On the wet grass my fever'd brow,
And poured forth the earliest"
First prayer with which learn'd to bow,
Have felt my mothers spirit rush
Upon me as in my by-past years,
And yielding to the blessed gush
OF my ungovernable tears,
Have risen up-the gay, the wild
As humble as very child. ROY

And as to religion, ifhe ever seemed to have
any, all such affections declined as the emo
tons of artificial stimulants arose, until con-
science has lost its power, or survives only
with Vulture scream to flap the wing aud ter
rity the soul. His religious emotions are dead
when he is sober, and rise only to emotion
and lOquacity and tears when he is drunk
Dead, twice dead is he-whatever may have
been the hopes he once INDUCED, or the evil
dence he once gave, or the hopes he once in
spired. For drunkards no more than muir
derers shall inherit the kingdom of God.
As the disease makes progress, rheumatic
pains diffuse themselves throughout the sys-
TEN. The man wonders what can he the
reason that he should he visited by such
complication of disorders, and again betakcs
himself to the physician and tries every rem
edy but the simple one of temperance. For
these pains are only the murmurings and COM
pIalnnings Of nature, through all the system,
giving sings of wo that all is lost For to rheu-
matte pains ensues debility of the system
which, becoming unable to sustain the Circu-
lation, the fluids fall first upon the feet, and
as the deluge rises, the chest is Invaded, and
the breath is shortened until by a sudden in
nundation it is stopped. Or, if in this form

other-more dilatory but no less terrific; for
now comes on the last catastrophe-the sud-
den prostration of strength and appetite-an
increased difficulty of raising the ebbing tide
oflife by stimulants-a few panic struck ref
ormations, just on the sides of the pit, until
the last sinking comes, from which there is
no resurrection but by the trump of God, and
at the Judgment day.
And now the woes and the sorrows
and the contentious aud the wounds,
and babblings are Over----the red eye
sleeps-the tortured body rests-the deform-
ed visage is hid from human observation-and
the soul, while the dust crumbes back to dust,
returns to God who gave it, to receive accor-
ding to the deeds done in the body.

| No. Il2, Br0dd,cdy, opposite The city Hotel.
! HOSEPH UNDERWOOD, encouraged by
% the liberal patronage, which he has re-
ceived the last year, begs leave to express his
obligations to the public, and to inform them,
that he has taken Mr.. A. A. WALKER into
copartnership in the management Of this large
and elegant establishment.
They have made many recent improvements
among others, they have connected with the
main establishment, (and which now forms a
part ofit,) an elegant house in Cedar-st. there
| by adding greatly TO its convenience
The National Hotel has two entrances from
Broadway-one of them opens into n spacious
hull-the ball extending through both front
and rear buildings. The entrance into the
building on Cedar-st. opens from that street
through another beautiful hall, and which in
tersects the main entrance from Broadway.
| There are two sitting rooms. one of which is
80 feet by l6, fronting Broadway on the ground
| floor. This room, as well as the bar room in
| the rear, is lighted with gas. There are hand
some parours fronting on Broadway, and the
same on Ccdar-st
The dining room is spacious, rs by SO feet,
and % feet in height, and lighted with three
elegant gas chandeliers, and the apartments
generally lighted with gas.
! Those who are acquainted with this estab-
| lishment will sustain us in the averment, that
the advantages of its local situation are not ex-
celed by any. 1t is healthy, ard in the midst
of the fashion and elegance Of the city; and
! at the same time in the very centre Of mercan-
! tile business, and not more than two minutes
! walk from the new Merchants Exchange and
| Post Office
The subscribers fatter themselves, that by
unremitted exertion to give satisfaction to those
| who may visit them, and by reasonable char
| ges, the reputation Of the house will be fully
sustained, and command additional patronage,
in proportion TO the improvements and liberal
disbursements which they have made 10 ac-
