Association for gratuito,ss attendance up
on the Sick.-We are glad to learn that
measures are in progress to form an as-
sociation for attendance upon the Sick
While it is highly probable that the in
Fiction of the epidemic cholera will not
be severe in this city, the disease is some
times so capricious in IT'S invasions, as to
baffle calculation. The wholesome NOR
al and ply condition of Boston may
Justly inspire confidence, but cannot as
sure Us of immunity. The want of sufii-
cient nursing has been most fatally felt
by the sick in other places: and here are
many young men who have come from
the country, journeymen, apprentices,
ETC., who have not any brothers nor re-
lations near, whose services they may
claim, and who will be in DANCE, Of deser-
ton. The poor, who are unable to hire
assistance, may be abandoned to their
fate; and thus the extent and mortality
of the disease will be greatly increased.
A state of preparedness against such
an evil, will inspire courage and trust,
and thereby diminish susceptibility ofthe
dsea ase. Let an Association be formed
comprising men Of all professions and
classes, and so numerous that the service
would not be burdensome by its severity
or its frequency. Let the gentlemen
who have considered the project, not
hesitate to propose it TO the public. A
call like this, made in tho name Of IIu-
manity and Christian Charity, will be
answered by hundreds Of our most active
and intelligent fellow-citizens - Bos. Pat.

Here on this spot how of I've been,
When the suns Of boyhood round me shone,
With playmates full fjoy and'minh.
T But now, alas! I'm here alone.
Alone. alas! unseen. unheard,
BY those who once would meet mo here,
And when their names loudly call,
They do not now as once appear.
All things seem changed save this old rock
The trees that shaded il have fell,
And that lone cot once call'd home,
Is now the cot where strangers dwell.
The little birds that us'd to sing,
So menily around this spot,
Like all the rest are absent now,
And this lov'd place seems quite forgot
But it can never be forgot
by me, for here in days Of erst,
Have of met with youihfal friends,
Here friendship's ties were treasured first.
My youthful friends, where are you now,
Will not your voice my call obe,!
No! call them and repeat the call,
But "echo answers where are ,hey?"
] raise me up and say farewell
To the old rock we meet no more,
My friends, ere long hope to meet
On times eternal, endless shore.
Farewell old cot, farewell old stump,
The remnant Of my favorite tree,
Farewell ye all, we meet no more,
But of you'll light my memory. 0nPIL.

paid to the Editor of the Enquirer for the manner
IN which he had spoken out upon the question of
Abolition, rather too cxtravagdnt. However that
might be, he prepared to repeat it, and would
not withdraw it, so long that individual persist,

from That quarter of the State, had never in his
humble estimation, been right i'm amy OF their poll

when he ceased to be so, he would recommend the

only an imperfect sketch of the remarks made by
Mr.. Moore, in reply to Mr.. Goodc and Others upon
the motion of Mr.. Preston to amend the resolution
reported from the Select Committee upon the CO.
Iorcd Population of the Commonwealth
Mr.. MOORE assured the House that he did no,
intend again to enter upon the broad field of dis.
cusslon, opened by the question thenApendinp-but
merely to repyto some gentlemen Who had uucs-
TONED the correctness OF some positions assumed
by him, when Inc addressed them some DAVIS before
The construction which he had put upon that de-
claratiOn, contained in the Bill of Rights which
asserts that all men are by nature equal free and
Independent, had been denied to be lust II had
been affirmed that the principle there asserted was
applicable to men in a state of nature and not to
men III state of society And that we could not
suppose our ancestors to have asserted that prin.
c1Ple as applicable to men in social state with
out regarding them either fools or knavcs-GooIs
Eecause II would place women and children on an
equality with husbands and parents and knaves
because at the very time they made the assertion,
they held great number of negroes in bondage
and made no effort TO restore to them their rights
Of equality and independence. Mr.. NJ was still
confident that his construction was correct II
would be absurd 20 suppose that our ancestors
were guilty of the folly Of soemnly asserting prin
cIPlcs which could only be applied TO men i'm a
state OF nature, such state existed, it it ever
did exist at all, in the golden age, when men lived
upon acorns aud roots, and drank cold water
What said he) had our ancestors to do with mere
distractions of that sort, at such a time! For
what purpose were they then assCmbled7 Were
they not at that time in a state Of society? And
were they not assembled for the purpose of organ

to carry on a against one Of the most power.
