JOSEPH WARREN.

major general in the American army. was born
at Roxbury, near Boston, in the year 174l He
was educated at Harvard University, where he was
highly distinguished az scholar, and had an homo
rabe part in the performances Of the day on which
he graduated; which was in 1850. Shortly after
he gained premium which was offered by some
gentlemen Of the province for the best poem on
occasion Of the death of George H. and succession
of George Ill. Having completed the usual course
Of medical studies, he established himself ply
stefan, at Boston, where he soon acquired an ex-
tensive practice, and arrived at the highest emf
nence in the profession Had he been DESTROYS of
wealth, or ambitious only Of eminence in his pro
fession. his opportunities were such as might have
gratiicd his highest wishes.
But the oppressive acts Of the English govern
ment had excited an alarm, and DR.. Warren took
too deep an interest in the affairs of the country,
and felt too strongly the dangers that threatened
it, to suffer himself to- be engrossedby private bust
ness, when his exertons might be of some use to
the public. After the passing OF the stamp act, he
undertook serious examination OF the right OF
parliament to tax the colonies; and as his time was
not at his command during the day, his nights were
spent in this investigation. When he had satisfied
himself that no such right existed, he was lndeiati-
gable in his exertion to produce the same conyic-
ton on the minds Of others. He devoted himself
to the common cause with zeal extremely preju-
dicial to his private interests. While he was en-
gagged in disseminating the great truths he had
learned, his pecuniary affairs were neglected and
became greatly derangcd. Young and ardent.
with fine person. engaging manners. and kind
and generous disposition, he enjoyed the affection
and confidence of all classes and was thus enabled
to exert an influence extremely beneficial to the
cause he had espoused BY his writings in the
newspapers, his public speeches and olations, he
abored to infuse his artor into the breasts OF
his fellow citizens. Probably no man did more 70
excite and sustain the spirit Of opposition to Brit
ish tyranny, for which Boston was early dIstin.
guished. Among his publications. one that partcn-
Iarly attracted the notice Of government, was let
ter to governor Bernard in 1868, signed :. A True
Patriot" concluding with the quotation from Ro'
chester
If such men are by God appointed,
The devil may be the Lords nnrnted.
The governor sent a message TO the house, and
another to the council, complaining Of it as libel.
The council, concurred with his excellencv that
the author ought to be punished, the house expires
sed different opinion. 1t was brought before The
grand Jury, who. however, woala MT find q bill.
In another piece the author ,int.cates himself from
the charge of impiety brought by the council, and
from that Of disrespect to his exceilency by alleg
ing that the obnoxious expressions could nut he ap

OF A MOTHER FOR THE DEATH OF
HER C!llLD


A dew-drop on .ither'd leaf,
As bright, as lovely, and az brief,
Thy being was-thou cames from heaven,
Like dew-drpps on the car of even;
When blush'd the rorning's early ray,
Thou, beau,eous one, vert pass'd away
II thou hadst liv'd, thou fragile flower,
To sDothe me in mine hour of wo,
oh net as now would grief have power
10 reud this aching bosom so
fondly hoped that thou ~ould'st be
All that thy sire was erst 10 me;
Btu thou art dead, beloved, and
Care no, how soon with thee lie;-
The grave indeed were welcome bed,
For this throbbing heart, and this aching head.
The beam tuat lights the crystal tear
That glistens o. the woodland rose,
Ere yet dissolved 60 yiewless air,
Upward again to heaven il goes
Pure as that beam, that tear, my child,
Vert thou, when last thou look DIST on rnes
And thy pale lips so sweetly smiled,
As If Death wore no frown for thee:
And lhen-(Oh God! why has, thou dealt
Such anguish to the widows hreasti)
While mutely by thy couch knelt,
Ard ny cold cheek 20 mine was priest,
Without sigh, without ,.roan,
TIL, spirit Aed--my SOD. my son!
Thou art m yonder heaven now.

That leaves me here on earth aiune!

Whenever my thoughts are backward cast;
Ths' thou art besz'd knrw-l know

OF all tina, form'd my solace here:
Naugh., 'naugh, in life, to me is left
Bttfrsnzy's dream, and memory's tear!
Come, on the wings of .umber, come
Thou bright onr from fhy place Of rest
Descend from thine eternal home,
Again 10 soothe thy uother'h preast!--
Dispel these clouds Of doubt aud gloom
Tina, gather round the mourner's brows
Tell her Of hope beyond The tomb
Oh, be her guardian ange! nows
III not provoke thy wrath, my God:
BY mutmuring at thy righteous will;

These rendng sots cannot hush-
These burning tears canno. smothera

Proclaims AMINO! Was--a mother!
Death! thou hast quencb'd the only beam
Thst gImmer'd on life's stormy wave;
Thou's, left me childlcss on the stream
That rushes darkly to the grave:

knew did not write them, and we were
willing to- show them 10 few individuals,
in order, ifpOssible, to learn the names of
the real authors. But we have suffered the
most from busy-bodies. Scarcely day
passed away during the last court session,
but from three to five, and even ten, law
yers, would come into our Office; and COM
municationS must of necessity be exposed
while the compositors are putting them in
type. If these gentlemen are willing to
walk from one stand to another, overlook
ing the work of the compositors, and even
taking pieces from before them, to see the
hand writing, and that too in our absence,
we must suffer; but it is more from the
prying spirit of others than frc m our own
imprudence. The same evil has existed
since the sitting of the court, and even
within one week. We have charged our
hands to snub such people alittle; but as they
are peaceably inclined, we are induced to
publish this special notice.

We do not know what is for our best good
we however judge that the best measures we

and pursue an independent course, without
asking the opinion of any man.
Strong and systematic measures have been
adopted in different parts of the state to Sc
cure at the approaching election such pub
lie expression in favor of districting the state
for the choice of state Senators and Repre-
scntatives to Congress, as will secure the pas
sage Of such bill at the next session of the
legislature; and also, to secure such an ex-
Legislative caucusses, as will deter our repre-
sentatives from again assembling to meet out
those offices and honours of the state which
of right belong to the people. This is as it
should be. So long as the freemen will justi
fly the partial proceedings of few interested
men, SO long will the corrupt influence of le
gislative caucusses be felt in the state.-SO
long as the freemen will act in direct violation
to their acknowledged sentiments. by electing
men to office who are known to be hostile to
measure in which they, the electors, profess
friendship, so long will the general ticket sys-
tenn prevail, and SO long will legislative eau
cusses dictate who shall, and who shall not
rule over the people. Let then such men be
chosen to represent the several towns as are

men of integrity and ability, who are willing
to avow their sentiments, and independently
to act upon them. We have dough faces"
in our state as well as our national Legislature;

connected with the general ticket and caucus
system. Our plain, straightforward, mat
ter-of-fact'' farmers and mechanics are in ia
vor of liberal sentiments they are in favor
of electing the best men TO Office, without re-
gard to old party contentious they are in
favor of the adoption of measures which will
enable them to know the men who are brought
forward as candidates for Office ;-they are in
favor of districting the State, and Of breaking
down caucus dictation. Let them then be
early atthe polls; and let them choose such
representatives, and such only, as will honest
Nv support those measures which the interest
of the state impcriously requires should be

The foregoing letter having been inserted

publication of it, at this moment, will remind
the electors of the inquisitorial practices. of a
combination, that has some time past ruled
Connecticut with rod of iron. The letter
opens with representation which it is mani
fest must be untrue, for it suggests that the
federalists at the last election attempted to O.
verthrow the republican cause; and then a
vers that the unhappy object of their venge-
ance ibid every thing in his power" to aid
them in accomplishing, the neiarious purpose.
This, however is obviously incorrect, as the

GOV. wOLCOTT.

As;t has been often asserted that this gen
+lcnan declines a re election to the important
station which he now fills, and the assertion
has been as often Gontradicted, we may he
expected to say something on the SUBJECT
Gov. Wolcott having never sought an election
has never declined an election. Grateful Tor
the confidence which the electors have here
tofore reposed in him, it has been his constant
endeayour to serve them with faithfulness; Il
so long as the people shall continue that ex-
preston of confidence in his abilities and pat
riotisn,, SO long it would be his desire to de-
vote his talents and his time to their service.
TO the people he owes his elevation TO the
Office of Governor, and to the people alone
would he feel authorised to decline paruc'-
NATION in the honours aud emoluments OF
state. Had he owed his election to one or
two. or even thirty individuals, instead OF ow-
ing it to thirty thousand, he might with pro-
priety. if he saw fit, make known to those
few individuals his wish to retire from ONCE;
but such was not the fact; to the freemen OF
Connecticut he was accountable, for by them
he was elected, and when he declines re-
election, it will be publicly made known to :he
people through proper channel. Gov. VOL
cott stands a candidate for the sufrages OF
the freemen at the approaching election and
should he again receive their support. ne WILL
with faithfulness and integrity serve his state
in that station to which the votes OF hrs fellow
citizens have called him. His character IS TOO
well known and his talents too well apprec'a-
ted to need any commentator from our Zee
BILE pen. His name, known to the freemen as
a candidate, is sufficient guaranty that
truly valuable and worthy man is before them
az candidate for the highest office in the
gift Of the State.
