Paddy's MetamOrpIlosis,

BY T. MOORE, ESQ.
About fifty years since, in the days Of our
daddies,
That plan was commenced which the wise
now applaud.
OF shipping off Ireland's most turbulent
Paddles,
As good raw materials for settlers abroad
Some West India Island whose name for

Was the region then chosen for this
scheme so romantic
And such the success the first colony met,
That second, soon after sailed DER the
Atlantic.
Behold them now safe at the long looked 70,
shore,
Sailing in between banks that the Shan
non might greet,
.And thiaki ng Of friends, whom but years
before,
They had sorrowed to lose, but would
soon again meet.
And hark from the shore, glad welcome
there came
"Arrah Paddy from Cork, is it you, my
sweet boy 2"
While Pat stood astenished TO hear his owl
name
Thus hailed by black ----.---ry--ao ia

Pat listened sgain-rubs his eyes ant
looks steady,
Then heaves a deep sigh, and in horror
yells out
Fathers blood |! only think, black and

Deceived by that well mimick'd brogue in
his ears,
Pat read his own doom iu those WOO

And thought-what climate, in less than

To turn whole cargo Of Pats into mig.

WOMAN.

Women have sort of universal iden-
tity--a sameness of feeling, if not a
sisnilitude Of employment-the peacocks
of creation, they look gaudy and strut
the butterflies of fashion, they sparkle
and soar-the weather vanes of mind
changing oftener than the wind,-the
wlll-o-the-wisps of the heart that mis-
lead and beguie. OF all wild beasts,
says Dean Swift, Ja woman is the most
uniamcable. Where she can command
by right, she will never obey by choice,
not even when she loves. To feel her
power and to exercise it, is as regular a
sequence inthe chain of antecedents and
consequents, as to will an attainable mo-
-tion, and the performance to follow that
will Her energies are directedtowards
the ignorant and the inexperienced, and
therefore seldom fail never against the
wary or the strong--as the spider at
tacks not the wasp or the bee-but en-
meshes the grat Of the fly. IfsiIIy, she
is vain-if sensible, vainer-if literary, a
pedant--if learned, b6re. If pretty,
she is affected-if handsome, naughty
and faptastie-if beautiful, capricious
and oyerbearing. If sue be reputeely
rich, she draws immense prospective
drafts on admiralion--if IN assured ex-
pectancy an heifess; each charm must
have its oyation-ifin propria persona a
fortune each feature demands triumph.
Her sole object is distinction, and her
highest ambition is to write, like the
Conquerer of Pharnaces; wen yidi, vici,
on every heart. If apparently constant
in affection, it is because society has re-
fused to sanction infdelity- and if SEEM
ingly amiable in disposition-'tis only to
add to the lures that bait tho treachor-
Gus and deceitful hook. In youth Sy-
rem; and in age Sphinx-first charm;
and then an enigIna-chcatIng even
Time of his power by her cunning and
her puffs and her frizzettes and with
the ruling passion ofvanny strong even

the very worm, as she exclaims with
Pope's Narcissa
No but charming chintz, or Brussels lace,
Wrap my cold limbs, and shade my lifeless

The Printers Hour of
Peace.


Know ye the printers hour ofpeace
Know ye an hour more fraught with joy,
Than e7er felt the maid of Greece,
When kissed by Venus am'rous boy.
IT'S not when round his mazy case,
His nimble fingers kiss the types.
Nor is it when with heightened face.
The sturdy devips tail he grpes.
'Tis not when news Of dreadful note,
His columns all with minion fill, -
'Tis not when brother printers quote,
The efusion of bis stump worn quill.
'Tis not when all his work is done,
Tired and fatigued as any dog,
And needless of the coming dun,
Grows merry DER glass Of grog.
'Tis not when in Miss Fancy's glass,
Long advertisements meet his eye,
find seem to whisper as they pass,
"We'lI grace your columns by and bye"
Nor is it when with numerous names
His heightened roll of velum swells,
As il f'twere touched by coDj'ror's wand,
Or grew on Fares' magic spells.
No reader no--the Printers hour,
Hishour Of really sweet repose,
Is not when by some magic power,
His list Of patrons daily grows.
But oh 'tis when the weather's clear,
Or clad in rain, or hail, or vapor,
'I've come to PAY you for your PAPER

From the Comm Herald Of Freedom.
The leaders of the Temperance Soci-
ETY. are determined to have the temper
ance cause and the cause Of endless mis-
cry inseparably connected If u man
joins them in their attempt to put down
intemperance, every turn he makes he
must swallow dozen sectsrian tracts,
and as many lectures on infant damna-
ton, total depravity, and ceaseless burn
lngs. And yet If man refuses To join
them in their unholy crusade for priestly
tyranny, he is denounced as an Infidei,
hereto, and unbcliever, and a-man
dangerous to society and undeserving
their support.
The fact is the hot-headed leaders for
the temperance cause care not fig a
bout temperance their whole object aud
design is to promote the impious doctrine
of an endless bell, not for themselves,
but for their neighbors, who are not SO
pharisaical as they@re. These fanatics
hoist the temperance flag because it is a
very plausible name to sail under; its
professed object is laudable one, but
what proves that it is only for cloak to
cover the cloven foot with, is the fact,
that every report, ode, and tract which
is published, and every lecture which is
given on tins subject by these men, is
filed more or less, with the doctrine Of
endless misery. Let every man be tenn
perate in all things but let those who be-
lieve in the impartial grace of God be
careful how they lend themselves to the
promotion Of doctrine which repre-
senis our Heavenly Father as cruel,
reyepgeful, and vin1ic,ivo tyrani."

A man in prosperity forgets every
one, aud in adversely every one forgets
him. In prosperity he appears to have
lost his senses; and when loaded will,
misfortune. he is said never to have had
any. In hIs sudden elevation, he be-
comes discontented with all the world I:
and when hurled TO the bottom of the
wheel OF fortune, all the world are dis
contented with him.

Wherefore hast thon left me now,
Many day and night
Many a weary nil ght and day
IT'S since thou art fed away.
How shall ever one like me
Win thee back again?
With the joyous and the free
Thou will scoff at pain,
Spirit false thou hast forgot
All but those who need the not.
AS lizard in the shade
Ofa trembling leaf
Thou with sorrow are dismayed
Even the sighs of grief
Rsproach thee, that thou art not near,
And reproach thou wilt not hear.
love all that thou lowest,
Spirit Of Delight!
The fresh Earth in new leaves drest,
And the starry night,
Autumn evening and tho morn
When the golden mists are born.
love snow and all the forms
Ofthe radiant frost
Hove waves, and winds, and storms,
Every thing almost
Which is natures, and may be
Untainted by mans misery.
