Now dancing in sunshine, now lost IN the earth,
So gl:de,h Cor eyer tina, tide Of devotion
Which springs. in this heart, for thy beaniy and
worth.
With measureisss speed forward bounds the glad

To sink in the swell Of rbs on dashins wave,
While the tide of my love- rolls It's current for ever
Sad, hopeless and dark-for is bound is the
grave
Brixh, shinsth yon star in the heaven before thee
A beautiful gem on the brow Of the night
And, ia my heart, which bui throbs to adore thee
Thine image aye sheds o'or lis darkness light
Bat oh, like yon planet Thus beam'ng above thee.
Too distant and cold all thy brilliances are,
Yet STILL though feel il is madness 10 love thee,
Let me gnze on thy sniIes and adore thee afar

Az AFFECTING INCIDENT is thus relat
ed IN the Newburyport Herald:--

ed IN the Newburyport Herald:--
A discourse was delivered on We'd
uesday evening, in the Pleasant sire ct
church, before the "Society for the Re-
lief of Aged Females" by the Rev. Mr..
Stevens of Boston. Prayers were offer
ed by Rev. Mr. Williams, of Newbury-
port. The annual report of the society
was read, and collection taken up in
aid Of the funds Of the society.
The discourse of Mr.. Stevens was a
production, glowing with warm and ele-
waited feeling, chaste, and energetic in
language, and fully sustained the repu-
taton which had preceded him here.
In concluding his remarks, MIR. Ste
vens said he would relate part Of the
history of family in Philadelphia with
which he was intimately acquainted. Ii
consisted Of the parents and four chill
dren. The husband was IN an employ
mcnt which enabled him 10 maintain his
family comfortably and lay by something
as a provision for his old age. In the
midst of his usefulness he was seized
with a consumption, and during pro-
had acquired was chiefly expended
After his Death the mother tasked her
self to support her little family. Night
after night was she engaged in laboring
with her needle Tor their support, the
children were sitting by her side endeav-
oring to comfort and encourage her -
Her ardous exertion shortly brought on
rho copa d;aoo ~ hich nd taken aw q
her husband. The support OF the iami-
" was thus entirely cut off. At this
crisis, the Oldest boy then not over seven
years of age, went from door to door
begging for some employment, to- KEEP
the family from starvation. Those upon
whom he thus called, were too busy 10
listen to the story Of child. Finally
by dint Of perseverance, he succeeded
in obtaining a situation in the Globe
Cotton Mill, in Philadelphia, receiving
for services 10 cents per week. lie sue
ceeded in getting younger brother into
the same establishment, who was paid
50 cents per week. Their united wa
ges-one dollar and twenty-five cents pei
week-served to sustain the sick mother
and the family. Things went on thi.
way for some time; the mother was hast.
4 ening 10 the end Of her earthly career
' None interested themselves in the fate
of these obscure individuals. Theil
ncip phbors. were n vicious, degraded peo.
ple, rs poor ~ themselves.
For a long period roasted potatoes
were their only food and the small pie.

We have before had occasion 10 speak
Of the conduct Of certain gang of law
less fellows, who have been in the habit
Of visiting this place at the Friends
Yearly Meeting, for no other purpose,
it would seem, than to get drunk and dis
turb the peace and quiet of the town,
and the Friends who assemble here
We think it truly lamentable that such
disgraceful conduct should be suffered
in civilized community, governed by
wholesome laws and regulations. The
noise and disturbance kept up in our
streets on Sunday, exceeded any thing
we before recollect of on the Sabbath
Is there town or city in the Union in
which such nbominable proceedings
would not be forthwith put stop to, and
the offenders made to suffer severrly?-
Among the number Of these annual vis-
itors, we understand small company Of
well dressed young men bespoke a din
ner at Mr. Gof's house in Washington
street, which was duly prepared for them
Dinner being over, after the company
had left the house, Mr.. Gofr missed his
mantel ornaments, consisting mostly Of
rich and beautiful shells.-Surprised at
their sudden disappearance, and recol-
lccting most Of his visitors during the
day, he at once concluded to make
search among the young gentlemen who
had 30 kindly dined with him. He found
them on board Of the Fall River steam
boat, and after considerable resistance
and confusion, finally succeeded ip OBJ
taining his shells from the pockets of one
Of the said dinner patty! Tho Sh,r-
iff forthwith took him to prison. whore
he was detained till next morning, when
tMr. G. concluding not to continue the

prosec cution,) he was discharged we
forbear to expose the name Of the young
culp,it in this pitifuI business-hoP'ng
he may endeavor to do better in fu-
ture.
The following communication on the
subject above referred to, is from high
ly respectable correspondent
Mr.. Atkinson.
| should like TO be informed whether
there are any officers appointed by the town
whose duty il is to see that oor streets on
Sunday are not disgraced with the worthless
population of other towns, as was the case or
Sunday last? ] am not one OF those that
wish the inhabitants confined within their own
houses or restricted from any rational ENJOY
unent on Sunday, but ] am opposed to me
disorderly portion Of the population OF r"l'
River or any other town, visiting TINS place
for the purpose OF dissipation and carousa'.--
We have many highly respectable strangers
here at the annual meeting "f Friends, ana
during the summer, and they are not ac-
auainted with the fact that those tumultuo"s
and disgraccfil assrinblages in the streets
and carriages, drinking and shouting, are
from other rtowns--conseQuently we have the
stigma To bear. hope that the proper AL
,horitl.s will sec that this state OF things II
not permitted to exist in future with inP"-

ces Of wood which they could collect in
the streets, their only fuel.
Finally, female, who had been a
bridesmaid to the mother, heard OF her
distress and sought her out. Her assist
nnce and personal services were freely
given, hut alas! il was now too late: she
could hut smooth the pillow Of death
The mother was laid in her grave by the
side of her husband, and the children
were LETT orphans. The kind lady re-
mained by, disposed Of what little iMni-
ture WAS left, and obtained situations for
the remnant of this afflicted family. -
Their prospects began to assume a
brighter hue. AT their meeting at the
end Of every year, they could say that
the past year had been more prosperous
than any before it. Finally an opening
was made for the older boy to the Chris
tian ministry, and that boy, said Mr..
Stevens, is the tndiriduaI uho ao,c adj
dresses y,u.
/ We have rarely Witnessed more pow
erful effect than the announcement o
this fact produced. 1t was as though al
electric shock had been sent throug the
whole audience. So entirely nnprepar.
ed were the assembly for such termi.
nation: 80 completely had their sympa.
thies been given to sufferers, whom they
supposed were at that time many miles
distant, that the declaration that one,
who had passed through the scenes in
which their feelings had been so strong
ly enlisted, stood before them, was Mn-
expected and startling in the highest de.
gree.

thousand persons. There will be pub

The trinI Of young Robinson for tho
murder Of Ellen Jewett, was concluded
on Tuesday week in New York.
(Fron the N. Y. Daily Advertiser Of W Wednesday.
/ ACQUITTAL or ROBINSON.
Judge Edwards charged the Jury ut
great length, recapiiuIaiing the testi-
nony, ins,ructing the Jury upon points
of law and the infrrences 10 he made
from the various facts and circumstances \
which we're developed in the course Of
the trial.
He charged them particularly in ref
erence to the testimony oi the dissOlu,a
females, who had given evidence in the
case; directing them that whenever the
testimony OF Mrs. Townsend, Emma
French and Elizabeth Saliers, came IL,
collision with that OF reputable witnesses,
the former should be set aside and dis.
regarded.
! At half past - o'clock, the jury re-
tired; and in IS minutes thereafter re-
turned into court with "A verdict of II OF
GUILTY.
I The annnnciation Of the verdict was
followed by n simultaneous burst Of
cheers from the spectators.
! From the moment ot the arrest OF The
prisoner, up to the awful monent when
the jury were to pronounce upon his lite
or death, he never betrayed the slightest
emotion. When the Jury returned 10
the court with their verdict, the prisoner
was directed to stand up and look upon
the jurors. He did so with an und .un-
ted front; but no sooner were the words
mot guilty" pronounced by the lore
man, than he sank, overpowrred by his
feelings, upon the neck Of his venerable
father, and wept like child.
! The court then directed that the pri.-
oner he dischnrgrd; proclamation Of
which being immediately made, Richard
=. Robinson WAS set at liberty, and. in
company with his father and MIR. Hoxie,
