Mr.. Editor,-I send you a scriptural rid
die, which no one, to my knowledge, hal
yet solved. | do not know its author no
its age-but to me it was new, and SHOULD
like that some of your readers should Sc
their wits to work, and furnish us with
solution of it, if they can,
Who was it doubted Peters mission?
And who condemned for his contrition
Who was it slew the famous Roman?
And who that first was called Bowman
What was it Paul was not concerned for ?
And what were many children burned for
That land of Israel famed for seamen'
And who that slew two thousand freemen
His name vino died, yet lives Tor many.
And his who never died for any?
Ifscripture lore can make you wiser,
Ihan boards of riches do the miser,
To show the world your great discerning,
Unriddle this by dint of learning
Then take of each the Alpha letters.
TO show thing which nothing betters
Which hates and loves, is kind and cruel,
And at the same time fire and fuel,
Which is and is not, lives by dying,
The truth its theme, yet always lying.

NIGHT.
Hath mortal eyes these glories seen,
Yet tlrn'd to such world as ours
De Leoa's "Noehe Serena
Blesi lights of heaven-celestial gems
OF pure and fadeless glow!
Deaming like golden diadems
On evenings dusky brow
There is soul-enchanting spell,
A power in each mild ray
Ye shed abroad DER night, to qucN
The stormy cares Of day.
Fve seen the glorious morning burst
The dim array of night,
I've seen the sunlight when it first
Glanced over tower and height;
I've seen flood of glory flung
BY sunset DER the sky,
When every cloud in air, that hung,
Receiv'd the gorgeous dye.
But thou, o dim and moonless night
] love thee more than all
OF mornings earth-rejoicing light,
Or evenings glorious fall.
Inspired by thee, drain the cup
Ofwild imaginings,
| love thee, for thou dearest up
My mind from earthly things,
There is no sound on hill or heath
The forest hath no tone,
And silent flows the stream beneath
The dark oaks that have grown
Above its banks-there is deep,
Fix'd quietness around,
IT'S natures hour of calm and sleep
And o it is profound.
There's something in the Voiceless still
And majesty OF night,
To bow the stern and stubborn will,
And make the heart unite
With natures calmness, and to shed
A holy feeling DER
The raptur'd spirit, whence hath fed
Each care it felt before.
Let others seek the gay sunshine;
The pomp and glare of day,
The tranquil hours of night be mine,
For then can fancy stray
Uncheck'd by aught of earthly things,
And inspirations glow,
Can lend my mind mysterious wings,
To fly from every wo.
o. who can gaze on this bright SKY,
And feel within his breast
The tempest, and the agony
OF passions unrepress'd?
Or can the scowl of hatred blend
With glances which are given,
To where yon azure fields extend,
Gem'd with the lights ofheaven.
o, starry host bright page, thoust writ
By an Almighty hand,
Glory like thine, alone is fit,
To speak of Gods command.
Roll on roll on ye stars of night,
TIL doubling mortals own,
THAI in your paths of stainless light
Eternal power is shown.

HINT To PARENTS. The want of pune
tuality in your children's attendance at
school, is perhaps, one of the greatest i'm
pediments that lie in the path Of their i'm
proyement. OBTAINING child On hour in
a day, a day in week, or few DAYS in a
month, may appear at the first view, to be
but small evil, and pregnant with no very
serious consequences. But it is, in fact,
like ''the little foxes amoung your choicest
vines," and far beyond your calculation.
impedes their growth. Every iudicious
teacher has every member of his school
Systematically classed, and every period
Of time appropriated to particular regula-
tions, which are indispensable to a well
governed school, the hardness of one schol-
ar, though it be but one half hour, disturbs
the whole system, and costs him whatever
respectable standing he may have gained
in his class. We will say, his teacher has
succeeded in getting his mind warmly en-
gagged with Lis class, in geography, gram
mar, arithmetic, or whatever his study NAV
be: he is then detained day from school,
his class have in the mean time recited
three or four lessons beyond him, 80 that
when he returns he has lost sight of them.
and must stand in a class by himself.
Thus his hopes of preferment are all frus-
trated, and his ardor and ambition all vast
ed. Now this is sore evil in the eve of
an ambitious teacher, and must be still
s0rer to the feelings of parents who desire
the improvement oftheir children.

FROM ANTIGUA.

The brig Enterprise, l~Iawley, at this port,
sailed from Antigua the 29th ult. We learn
from Captain H. that there had been consider
able sensation among the islanders, in conse-
quence Of a notice appearing in the papers de-
claring it to be the determination Of the COM
handing naval officer on that station, to seize
and detain all British vessels proceeding from
any Of the neighboring foreign islands with ar
,icles Of the production OF the United States,
and that flour and corn meal Immediately
advanced in prices. Captain Chambers, the
commanding officer, in a few days, however,
Quoted the minds Of the people on this subject,
by publicly contradic,ing the report. The off,
GERS of the customs, in the British islands, ma
.nifested determination strictly to carry into
effect the Order in Council prohibiting the
trade with US. From and after the FIRST OF De
cember, American vessels are not allowed to
return with the proceeds Of their outward car
goes in Colonial produce-consequently the
islanders will have TO pay for the same in spe-
Gle, or send their produce to some neutral port
In British vessels, ION whence ii can be ship
ped to the United States.
An indirect trade can still be carried on thro'
the neutral islands, by which both parties can
receive the prodace Of the other, unless the D.
nited States shall see fiji to prohibi, British CO.
lonial articles from our ports altogether. Per-
picking as this roundabout trade may he, it
will operate more TO the injury Of the British
Colonies than TO the United States, as they can
not live without American produce, and the
greatest part Of the extra expense will fall up
on them. The restrictions imposed upon their
with the United States was not at
all relished a, Antigua, but it was generally BE-
lieved that they would soon be removed.
