Missouri Humbugger.
The principles whirh would govern Mr.. Cars

nation. They have been displayed upon the Aoor
of Congress for the last seventeen years. They
constitute q system of American policy, based on
the dgriraltnre and manufactures Of his oson ronns

Upon internal, as well as sea board Improvement

POET .
"THERE s POETRY THERE

When YOU see the sun rise in splendor and might,
And throw Ger the landscape his vesture Of light
When the glitiering dew drops of morn's early hour
Be.psngle with beauty the leaf and the flower;
And the meadows and woodlands with verdure are
crowned,
And all living creatures are sporting around;
While you gaze with mute rapture on visions so fair,
Does your spirit not whisper ''there's poetry theref"
For saking the scenes of confusion and mirth,
Go forth in the evening. o child Of the earth!
The stars one by ono set their watch in the sky; -
The moon in her brightness is walking on high,
All nature reposcs in stiffness and peace,
And the soul feels the tumult Of passion to cease;
A sound, as of melody, breathes on the air
Oh, how sweetly il murmurs there's poetry there"
The bright flashing lightning that fills you with
wonder.
The fast fslling rain and the loud pealing thunder;
The clouds slowly parting. the blue heavens peep
ing,
With a emile, like the face Of a fair infant sleeping;
The notes Of the birds, as they sing in the trees,
The sweet voice of childhood, that floats on the
breeze,
The hour of devotion, the temple Of prayer,
Believe, oh believe me, there's poetry there"
The smile of affection, the tremulous sigh,
The brightglowing cheek, and the soft-gushing eye,
All, all can a tender emotion impart,
For the fountain of poetry dwells in the heart,
A fountain shut up" and a spring that us sea
led"
To the lover of nature alone it s revealed;
O naught can of earth with his pleasure compare,
Who feels in his soul, "there is poetry there"
Great Author Of Nature! give me to drink
Deep, deep of the fountain; l stand on The brink,
With longing of heart, (quenchless ~longings twill
prove,)
And wait for the Angels those waters to move:
Sweet draughts | have tasted, and while adore
The hand that bestowed them, | still sigh for more!
O lead me above, TO the bright mansions, where
| may sing through all ages there's poetry there.
