The Hawk-eye and Iowa patriot. (Burlington, Iowa) 1839-1843, 1840-11-12

We understand that some of the loco
focos in the Legislature have expressed a
desire to lay aside all party chickering's
and 90 to work for their constituents
How amazingly patriotic they have be-
come all at once! How magranimous !!
After they have obtained all they ever
aimed at, they are willing to give up the
rest. They have caused breach which
cannot so easily be healed.

TYPOGRAPHY.

During the discussion on Friday last,
one member (Mr Summers said he
should vote for Mr. M'Kenny because he
had heretofore done the printing, and had
done it well. We are willing to meet
the Hon. member or any one else on this
issue. In looking over the last two vol
umes Of the claws of Iowa. we Disco
vered more typographical errors, than we
remember to have seen in any book we
ever perused. The work, too, we con-
slider discreditable to the character of the
craft i'll this Territory. We say nothing
of the bills and slips bnt we do say, for
the honor Of the press in Iowa, that the
Laws should be correct and well printed.
This may be considered Il delicate sub
iect for as to discuss, but its introdu ction
has not been brought about by our seek
ing. Every one must see that it is fair
subject of criticism. If our statement i'll
regard to the incorrectness of these laws
is questioned, we promise to prove our
position by kind Of evidence that can
not be disputed, and refer to the chapter
and page.

Sat the late election for delegate to
Congress, the vote may truly be said to
have been a strictly party one.' Gazette.
The above are such gross misrepresen-
tations, that we do not believe the loco
foco representatives even from the dis
trcts designated will endorse them.
They must know NOR about the state of
politics in their own particular regions
than the editor Of the Gazette. We should
like to hear them speak, for a particular
reason. We think we can prove that
quite number who are counted good
democrats in both branches, and who may
be such, pledged themselves TO their con-
stituents that they would not act on party
grounds if elected; and that these same
men have acted on purely party grounds,
ever since they commenced their sittings
in this city. They may possibly re-
celve instructions from their constituents
before the close of the session.

PROSPECTUS
Of New Weekly Paper to be published in Au.
gusta, Georgia, entitled
THE sovEEEENEE.
ssPrinciples..NOt Men,"

i'm order to expose and counteract the
- Misrepresentation and falsehoods so
unblushingly rcsorted TO and disseminated
by the federal whig presses of the coun-
try, in the present contest for the Presi-
dency, and in order to place before the
people of Georgia, faithful account Of
past and passing events, as they relate to
tire questions at issue, we shall begin the
publication of weekly sheet, on Satur-
day, 9Th of June next, which will ter
inmate on the 3lst Octerher following.
We have been urged on to the adoption
Of this undertaking, by many of our poll
tical friends, who have seen as we'll as
ourselves, the unscrupulous and highly
ccnsurable course pursued by our oppo-
nents, which, instead Of being marked
by honorably and just feelings, is charac.
terised by perversion and distortion of
we'll authenticated facts, and feeling Of
hatred degrading to human nature, and 10
the respect which should be entertained
by citizens of the same country, however
wide may be the difference in their politi-
cal opinions. This paper will not be be-
trayed into like course towards our op-
ponents; but it will expose, in strong Ian
guage and with undoubted proofs, the
Misrepresentation and falsiications which
may be resorted to, in order to prejudice
the sensitive mind, TO deceive the unwary,
and to lead astray the unsuspecting: In
this undertaking, we hope to receive
support adequate to the object in view.
By the dissemination Of this sheet, much
and useful information will be impaired to
those who wish to act, in the present con-
test, with impartiality and with an eye
single to the public good: With these
few remarks, we place the undertaking
under the care of our political friends, 10
whatever party denomination they may
have heretofore belonged, for we consi-
der as political friends all those citizens
who, governed by patriotism alone, sup
port men only for the sake of principle,
and the welfare of the country. We must
show to the people Of the United States
the danger of 'thc Rights of the States,
and of the State Institutions, protected by
the Constitution, threatened as they are
by party which, disregarding honest and
fair means to obtain power, employ the
basest cxpedients to rally around its stan.
dard, men Of all political descriptions, of
all political hues, and Of all degrees of
political degeneracy.

POETRY.

[Thc following beautiful and appropriate verses
were written for the late May celebration of the Cam
den Female Seminary, by its accomplished Principal.
We had not the pleasure of hearing the delivery Of
them, but we understand that it was highly credita
Bile to the young ladies who distinguished themselves
on the occasion. By some strange overnight an &C.
count of the interesting ceremonies was neglected at
the proper time. But now lay before our readers
the Poetry, which gave most interest to the festive
and happy sccne.

Now, do not think, my pretty friends, feel true
:. true, Queen,
Because your love has made DER this gay fes-
tive scene;
would not wear regal crown of diadem or gem,
For all the gold and incense of Btains naughty realm.
would not sway sceptre DER any subject land,
Nor would raise my womans voice in words of high
command;
We were not made to sit in state proud isolate and
lone,
Above the reach ofsympathy, where friendship is un-
known.
No! ever may our chaplet be, of gentle breathing
flowers,
Telling of love and confidence, wreathed in affections
bowers;
And thus our trusting hearts, to es sweet charities
given
Tiwe called to guild them up for purer joys Of
Heaven.

ADDRESS TO THE QUEEN,
BY HER MAIDS OF HONOR
We come in the gladness
Ofchildhood's bright hour,
Ere the shadow of sadness =.
In our horizon low'r,
To bring an oblation
Of Ofprimrose and vine, =.
For thy coronation
At Flora's gay shrine.
Young dawn had scarce waken
From rosy repose,
Ere our light-feet had shaken
The dew from the rose.
The wreath of the mountain, .
The pride of the vale,
The stores by the fountain,
Sosweet on the gale,
Have lavished their treasure
Ofperfume and dye,
To heighten the pleasure
Our love would supply.
And lov'd one, we own thee.
The pride of the scene,
And joyously crown thee !
Sweet Mays lovely Queen.

FAIRIE LAND.

(Which mortals ne'er comman1
Of musing by sylvan stream,
In ancient Fairie Land.
And fast before my charmed eyes,

In wond'rous glory there.

The one she was cherub grace,
As every legend saith,
So sweet and heavenly was her face,
They call'd her blue.oyed Faith

Another with htr dovc.like eye
Lit up on earth flame,
From which seraph seemed to fly,
And Hope wis her sweet name..
Now last of all the fairic bnnd,
In beauteoY majestl@
All hearts to Yxn and to command,
There was queen Charitie.
And we'll I wot that young ard old,
With honors rich and rarc,
Came there TO seek tncir fortune bold,
And win ladyo faire.
Full often came each welcome guest,
Who told his pleasing pain,
From North to South, from East to West,
They came-but all in vain.
And entering on the fairie scene,
Ajoyous look each had, a
But pass'd they on-how chang'd 7 ween,
To melancholie sad.
One drew. him near river bank,
As if TO drown be meant,
But no! he stopped him down and drank
And on his way he went.
Some others seemed distraught in mind,
Or sighed, or wept or curs'd;
But all like chaff before the wind,
In clouds were soon dispersed.
Now while gazed in awe and fright,
At this strange phantasie,
An Angel came in robe Of light
And thus he said to me:
