MR.. BENHAM OF OHIO.

Extract of a letter dated Washington, March Is.
The number of removals from office by Presi-
dent Jackson, the real or ostensible causes that
conduced to the change, will form an interesting
and amusing part of the history of this country.
1t has been the practice Of this government since
Its first organization, to appoint those to Office
who had rendered important and distinguished
services to the country, if duly qualified. This
preference has not been confined to those who
rendered the services, but it has been sometimes
extended to their children. The consideration
that ones country will duly appreciate and re-
ward public services, is one of the greatest in
centiyes that can exist, to make great sacrifices
for the public veal. Not only have Offices been
bestowed, to reward meritorious services, but
the children Of those who have offered their lives
to sustain the country's honour, have. in several
Instances, been educated at the public expence.
The son of Gen. Mercer, the children of Major
Trueman, Col. Hardin, and many others, have
been provided for by the government, on account
of the valorous services Of their respective ia
theirs. 1t was hoped that the military charac-
ter of President Jackson would have possessed
this redeeming quality, that he would not forget
the descendants of those, who had suffered and
bled in defence of their country. This reason
able expectation has not been realized. Mr..
B-,ham. the father Of the late district attorney in
Ohio, was among the early and enterprising set
lers in Western Pennsylvania. In the fore part
of the revolutionary war, he joined an expedi-
ton to descend the Ohio river, and proceeded to
ST. Louis, for the purpose of procuring some
clothing and munitions of war. On the return

SELECTED POETRY.

The following Poem Is stated In MOORE ) ho
,rk to have been written by BYRON IN lSo'
ZEN he was not yet nineteen years old. ltcol
ms, as will be seen, his religious creed at TIL
Rod, and shows now early the struggle betwee
tural piety and doubt began in his mind:
THE PRAYER OF NATURE.
Father Of Light! great God of Heaven!
Hearst thou the accents Of despair
Can guilt like mans be Ger forgiven
Can vice atone for crimes by prayer!
Father of Light! on thee call!
Thou seest my soul is dark within:
Thou who can'st mark the sparrow's fall.
Avert from me the death OF sin.
No shrine I seek, to sects unknown,
oh point to me the path Of truth!
Thy dread competence Town,
Spare, yet amend, the faults OF youth.
Let bisots reara gloomy fame,
Let superstition hail the pile;
Let priests, to spread their sable reign.
With taie Of mystic rites beguile;
Shall man confine his Makers sway
10 Gothic domcs Of Wondering stone;
Thy temple is the face of day;
Earth, ocean, heaven, thy boundless throne.
Shall man condemn his race to hell
Unless they bend in pOmpous forms
Tell us that all, for one who fell.
Must perish in the minsling Storm
shall each pretend to reach the skies,
Yet doom his brother to expire,
Whose soul a different hope supplies.
OR doctrines less severe inspirei
Shall these, BY creeds they can't expound,
Prepare fanced bliss or woe!
Shall reptiles grovellins on the ground,
Their great Creators purpose know
Shall, those who live for self slone,-
whose wears Goat on in daily crime
Shall they by Faith for guilt atone,
And live beyond the bounds of Time
Father no prophets laws SEEK
Thy laws in Natures works appear;
own myself corrupt and weak,
Yet will pray, for thou wilt hear!
rhov, who canst guide the wandering star
Through trsekless realms Of ether's space;
Who calm'st the elemental war,
Whose hand from pole to pole l trace;
Thou, who in wisdom placed me herei
who, when thou wilt, can take me hence,
All, whilst tread this earthly sphere,
Extend TO me thy wide defence.
To Thee, mYS6oi, to Thee ] cali!
Whatever veal or woe betide.
BY thy command rise or fall,
In thy protection confide.
IF, when this dust to dust restored,
Ny soul shall float on airy wing.
How shall thy glorious name sdored
Inspire her feeble voice to sing!
But, il this Aee,ing spirit shore
With clay the graves eternal bed,
while life yet throbs 1 raise my PRAYER,
Though doom'd no more to quit the dead.
To Thee breathe my humble strain,
Grateful for all thy mercies past.
And hope, my God, 20 thee again
This erring life may fly at last.
