The helmsman at his post;
His ocean is the Wild, wide world,
Ills compass mas been lost:
And vain is now his utmost skill
L" 'nwer the swelling SAIL
But on at random Wanders still
The p'aything OF the galei
His lighted torch mast once a guide,
Now throws its beams around
To show how useless was the pride
Which wreath cords round il bound,
His arrow holds its station still,
Unmov'd by each fond art -
That pointed arrow, never will
From Loves gay trapping part.
Away, away, the vessel speeds,
Unchecked its .cyious course
No threatend danger ever heeds,
Whlle passions breeze lends force
In vain may P-ld,ncc, from atar,
With lifted hands exclaim
Hope ever lights her beacon star,
And Love pursues the flame!
Onward still onward-where's the cline
Through which he has not been
And who will dare predict the time
When he may ncrt be seen
That bow wrOu yhl rk! al, who NAV tell
When last it fitted by1
Or guess what &c o.d its farewell,
The hight laugh-ofa sigh1

And none shall see its closing.

THE CAPTURE OF ANDRE.

BY J. W. MILLER.
Look on us, Brton! readest thou
Aught base craven here
On these swsrt breasts and toil-worn brows
Is stamped the sign offear1
Look, man of courts and knowest thou not
Rude arms and peasant vest
Are ligh'ningsin patriots grasp
Proof mailupon his breast?
Go to would not wrong the truth
That fills thy noble eye;
That broad, pale forehead's lift of pride
Should take no shameful dye.
would not that bride should be
Clap'd in a brave mans hold;
IT'S base weapon-vainy drawn,
Briton put up thy gold
Nor hope thou thus by prayer or threat,
To go hence free and proud
How family falls the speech of man
Where Gods deep voice is loud
God and our country !--hallowed word
Breathe it but in thy heart
Briton then ask us that we bid
Her mortal foe depart.
Within our souls there is voice,
Upon our eyes, fire,
That leaves to PHYS moan no car.
No glance to low desire,
Our country's wrong-our country's hope
Is written on heavens wall;
We may but read that lightning scroll,
Hear butth thunder call
We may but meet thee as foe,
Lead thee, but as slave;
Startest thou yet that proud form may bow
To fill afelon's grave
Go thou with us our last resolve
Perchance thy doom--s told,
Thinkest thou to buy patriots soul -
Brton putup thy gold.

Prescription against Dyspepsia and HgpocAoadria
TRANSLATED FROM THE SPANISH.
An honest and temperate life
No dealings with the apothecary,
And from this maxim never vary,
On no account engage in strife
Be moderate in your appetite,
Amusement take and exercise,
Avoid the cares that life supplies
In country walks take much delight
Little confinement much enjoyment,
And continual employment
Employment, indeed, seems to be the only sovereign PAN
1t is necessary happiness as Ciceros acon is to
an Orator.

fisherman, his boy, and his dog, were safe from the
