POETRY.

hg- POETRY.
From the N. Y. Spirit Of the Times,
TEXAS.
BY E. L. wADDELL.
Hark! from the land where Blooms the
rose,
Throughout year ofRuits and flowers,
The clarion's cali! for freedoms foes
WoaId dare invade her sacred bowers.
There has the settler reared his home,
BY hardy toll and bold emprise,
And from Religions peaceful dome
His gteatful prayers to Heaven arise.
Eiis children round the cottage hearth
The infant on lis mothers knee
Were taught the holest law on earth,
Which God approves, isTO be free!
and now thehour has come at last
Rebellion's smothered cry has broke;
Zoo longan CALLING bondage cast,
They to crush tyrant's yoke.
ITark! from the land where pOtrlots dwell
The claron's call, wall of grieE
Shall Teras fall as Poland fell?
No arm be raised for her relief?
mol by the ARM which led them on
TO settle in that fairy CLINE,
They'll laugh best Freedoms foes to
scorn,
Or perish in the cause sublime?
oh, righteous causel when nan, ,oppressd
Girds on the sword to do or die,
His name in glory's page shall resi-
And angels wait his soul on high!
Though dark Oppression DER her lower {,
From bondage Texas shall arise,
And crush naughty despo s power
Her flag triumphant sweeps the skies!
Blue Yarn Soclmgs.-When Dr FrarR
lin was received at The French Count as
American minister, he felt some scruples
of conscience in complying with their
fashions as to dress. "Ile hoped" he
said, to the minister, THAT as he was HIM
selfa plain man, and represented q PLAIN
republican people, the king would indulge
his desire 10 appear at Court in hls usual
dress. Independent of this, the season
of the year rendered the change from
warm yarn stockings'to fine silk, some
what dangerous"
The French minister made him bow,
but said that FASHION was too sacred a,
thing for him 10 meddIe with, but he
would do himself the honor to mention il
to his Majesty.
The king smiled, and returned word
shat DR.. franklin was welcome to appear
at Court IN arg dress he pleased. lO.
spite oGthat delicate respect tor strangers
for which the French are soTCmnrkabIe,
the couriers could not help staring, at
first, at DR. FrankIn's quaker like dress,
and especially his blue yarn Stockings

been introduced upon this splendid thea

like true beauty, "heeds not the foreign

dazzIed with the biIiancy VI his mind
that they never looked at hts stockings.

are now forgotten, the name of DR. Frank

FAIRBANEs PATENT SCALES We day
or Two since alluded in terms Of praise to a
steam engine manufactured in this city by
Masrs, Garrett and Eastwck, and now in
successful operation on the Philadelphia
and Trenton Rail Road; and it is our pur-
pose on the present occasion to invite pub
lie attention to another American contriv-
ancc, remarkable alike for ingenuity and
utility. We alude to weighing machine
the invention of L. g. II. Fairbanks. OF st.
Johnsbury, VT, and known as Fairbanks
Patent Scales. A specimen of this inven-
ton was some time since examined by q
committee of the franklin Institute, when
report Of the most mplimeDtaty char.
scler was made, az " i'll be seen by the fol.
lowing extract from it:
Tho small machine examined by the
committee was capable of weighing twelve
hundred pounds with ease,-it was gradu-
ated to half pounds, but when unoadcd
turned with less than an ounce. The prin-
ciple Of weighing in the machine is the one
commonly employed for weighing heavy
loads, as in the machine which has long
been used on turnpike roads, on canals,
&c. The combination of levers on which
the platform rests is convenient, and the
weighing is executed at one side of the
machine. Weights of q large denomina-
ton lin The machine before The committee
--of 100 lbs. are ascertained by equipoises
which slide upon the stem 10 which the
counter Poise of the platform is attached,
and the sub divisions of this weight are
obtained by the sliding bar of the steelyard.
The committee have not seen moro con,
venlent machine for the purposes to which
it is applied"
The above is perhaps tho stronges. les.
timony that could be obtained for contri.
vance Of this sort, and as the Institute is
not apt to endorse humbugs of any descrip
lien, 1t is perhaps unnecessary to add a
single word. We may state, however,
that we have had one OF these machines
