The annexed humorous article from tho New

hit at the theory of human perfectibilty, and the
notions Of the Philosophers ofNew harmony,
It was written for the especial benefit and be-
ksof of Robert Owen, that celebrated theo eric; I
visionary, who has, within the last two or three
years, struggled to establish a community, on
new und absurd principles, at New Harmony,
Indiana. Whatever may have been the signs
Of Mr.. Owen, they have failed TO meet with
that success. he anticipated, and most Of his fol-
lswcrs have nbjured his government, and re-
turned to the land Of their fathers.
From the little observation wo have had o
this Quixotc individual, we have been lead to
believe, that he has not been aotuated By pure
or proper motives;-we have looked upon him
"a desperate schemer and adventurer:-a kind

POETRY
THE SISTERS.

From late number of the Literary Gazette,
wo copy the pathetic effusion, which will be
found to follow these remarks, and which is pc
culiarly applicable 10 ID melancholy case Of NOR
sality, which has lately bcfsllen family, resid-
ing in this vicinity, and which within little pc.
Rod has followed TO the grave, two young anu
interesting Sisters.
We would not willingly, harrow up the fsol-
ings Of those who weep over the sepulchre of
the dead. and drop the tear Of pity, on the grave
Of fallen Seau,y; but whilst We have read the Of
fusion Of the 1.-TWO SISTERS" we have been
forcibly rexinded Of its applicability to the cases
Of mortality, to which we allude.
Although life was not more dear TO them than
il Is TO those who move in the humber ranks Of
life, and who are contented amid poverty, STILL it
elicits different feeling, when we behold youth
and beauty, falling before the approach of death,
aud they who have every thing to live for, and
were beloved and honoured by the world, falling
in .hs prime oflife, and passing of to unknown
world's-And whilst the feeling heart, lament
the early demise of those who were entitled TO
that all things are uncertain, avd that in the
midst Of life we are surrounded by de a,h.-The
author Of the poem has prefacod it, with the fol-
lowing very Apostle quotation from Shakespeare.
They grew together,
Like 10 a double cherry, seeming parted,
but yet a union in Partition
Two lovely berries moulded stem;
30 with Two seeming bodies but one heart
! saw them when their bud of life
Was slowly opening into A"wer,
Boforc cloud of care or strife
Had hurst above their natal bower
Ere thi. world, blight had marred grace
That mantlsJ DER each sparkling face.
What wero they then? Two twinkiins stars
The youngest OF en- April sky
Far. far from earth anil earth born jars,
Together shining peacefully
Now narrowing, Dispensing light,
= Radiant as hope, and calm as bright!
What were they thoa, Two limpIl streams
Through life's green vale in beauty gliding,
Minging like half forgotten dreams;-
Now 'neath tho gloom of willows hiding,
Now dancing DER tho turf away,
10 playful waves and slittsrins spray.
soc them a, I saw them then,
With cureless brows and laughing eyes;
They flash upon my soul again
With all their infant witcheres-
Two claiborne o. irit,, sent on earth
As ENJOYS from the muse Of mirth!
Such faucy's dream,-but never more
May fancy with such dreams be fed;
These buds have wthered to their core,
Before their leaves had time to spread
Those stars are fallen from on high
Those twin bright streams are ever dry!
While spring was gladdenins all the skies
Mid blooming flowers and sunny weather,
Death came TO them in geatest guise,
And smote them, in his love, toge ether!
In concert thus they lived and died,
And still lie slum5ering side by side.

We observe it stated in the Baltimore Patriot OF
Friday last, on what authority il does not mention,
that the Senate Of the United States made choice Of
4 Printer to that body, on the preceding day. By
reference 10 the prsceeding. ot the Senate as pub
lished in the National Journal and National Intc-
gencer, the Patriot will perceive that its statement
is incorrect. The Senate proceeded on Thursday
to ballot for Printer, having previously adopted
resolution that msorty Of the votes should be re-
quired for q choice. After two bsllotingl, no per-
son having received majority Of the votes, further
ballo,ing was suspended, and so the matter rests.
