IN THE NORTH CAROLINA LEGISLATURE
On the introduction of Mr. Rayner's resolu.
lions of instructions in the House of Commons,
he main question being on what day they
should be taken up and considered, the Wings
insisted that they should be disposed at an ear
ly day. One or two votes having been tuken
on the more distant days, in which the Van
party was in the rear, several gentlemen COM
planned of oppression. Among others, DIR.
Caldwell, from Mecklenburg, and Dr. Wilcox
from Halifax, spoke upon the subject, and as.
ked what effect the Resolutions were expected
to have? One of the gentlemen said that the
dose had been prepared for them ina Caucus,
and he supposed was to be forced down their
throats, aolens rolens. To this Mr.. Jones of
Rowan replied, that he was sorry to see the
gentlemen on the other side exhibit so much
nausea at the dose which they said had been
prepared for them They have forgot how
they served US, sir, four Years ago. They
have forgot with what promptness and energy
they administered the dose Of instructions pre-
pared in like manner by Caucus. Yes, sir
they on that occasion, not only made us swat
low their physc in spite Of Lamentations here
or elsewhere" but they forced it down spoon
anil all. But, sir, we have happily changed
places. We are the doctors now and they are
the patients. We mean to give them their own
physic out Of their own spoon. One OF the
gentlemen said, that this dose had been prepaar-
ed for them in caucus. He is right sir We
have mixed up this potion with great care, from
the very best ingredients, according to the most
approved recipe, and can tell them they have
to take it Just as it is prepared. We mean to
admit no dilutions nor authorizations; so they
may as we'll swallow it at once, without making
any wry faces. | commend it to the gentle

WAKE from thy azure ocean-bed,
Oh! beautiful sister, Day!
uOllt thy gem-tiara'd head,
And. in thy vestal robes array'd,
Bid twilight's gloom give way!
Wake, dearest sisteri the dark, brow'd night
Delayeth too long her drowsy flight.
Most glorious art thou, sister Day,
Upon thy chariot throne,
While, sitting supreme in regal sway,
Thou holdest thy high cfiuIgent way,
In majesty alone;
Till into thy cloud -payilion'd home
In the burning West, thy footsteps come
When last thy parting look caught,
Which turn'd, 10 smile good night,
With all lovers fondness fraught--
There seemed not in the universe aught
So precious in thy sight,
As thy own dear Earth, while TO her breast,
She folded her slumbering babes TO rest.
| hear the sparkling midnight spheres
Rehearse the choral hymn,
Which yet ere earth was stand with tears,
Burst on the joy-entrancod cars
OF holy seraphim;
While the lofty blue empyrean rang,
As the morning stars together sang.
Oh, many joyous mountain rlll'
And many rustling stream,
Calm lake and CLASSY fountain still,
Tall grove and silent mist-clad hill,
Long for thy coming beam!
Uprouse thee, then, lairest sister dear'
For all are pining their voice to hear.
With trembling and impatient wing,
Ny birds on every spray
Await, thy welcome forth to sing
With many a meeting lay;
Then. wherefore, Beautiful, linger so long?
Earth signs to greet thee with shout and song
Thy flowers her vigil lone hath kept,
With loves untiring care;
Tho round her pinks and violets slept,
She wakefully hath watched and wept'
Unto the dewy air;
And like desolate bride she waits,
For the opening of her lovers gates.
Oh! then arise, fair sister dear:
Awake, beloved Day!
For many a silent trembling tear,
Falls on my breast like diamond clear,
In grief for thy delay.
From the rosy bowers Of the orient skies
Then up, sweetest sister, arise, arise!
