P 0 E T R Y
From the LibeTator.
THE FUGITIVE.

Wandered speeding on amain
From the CORY Southern plain,
Scared with many seamy cash
BY the cruel drivers lash,
ToiliDg through the tangled fern
To the marshes low and dern,
Guided onward by the sure,
Undeceiving cynosure,-
God be with thee, stricken one,
Til thy weary race isrun
On and on, away, away!
Hiding from the light of day
In the caverns of the wild,
Where the kissing adder coiled;
And when evening comes again
Peering through thy murky den,
Speed thee we'll and forward press
Through the tangled wilderness;
Liberty thy toll shall bless
With her loving kindnesses.
Hark. the jar of distant sounds!
IT'S the man. thief and his hounds'
No, it was the sounding gale,
Swelling from the wooded vale.
Ha! that flashing, where the breeze
Swayed the branches of the trees,
'Tis the polished rifles CLEAN!
No, Ills but the moon lit stream.
Brother. trembling and afraid,
Onward! Heaven shall be thy aid.
Guardian angels from above
Over thee hive watched in love;
Scourge and letters, crimson dyed,
Forests long and rivers wide,
Teeth of hound, and dagger's blade,
Swamp, and trackless everglades
All the terrors of thy path
Flying from the spoilers WRATH
They are left behind, and thou
Art Jehovah's freeman now.
Rest thee, pilgrim, for awhile,
Where our hearths of plenty smile;
We will guard thee from the mouth
OF the raw ming bloodhound South,
Save thee from the sateless jaw,
And hyena-fangs Of law;
Till thy bleeding heart hath found
Healing for its every wound,
And the light of joy shall shine
On that troubled soul of thine.
Pilgrim! rest awhile. and then
We will speed thee on again,
Far beyond Niagara 3 roar,
Where the robbers reign is DER, S.
Aud the Lion plucks away
From the eagles claw her pray,
There, meath England's banner folds,
Man the right Of manhood holds,
And the black man, long oppressed,
Finds at last home Of rest.

The citizens Of New York and Of tho
counties lying along the Hudson, have had
a unkettng on the occasion of breaking
ground for the contemplated railroad between
Albany and New York. The New York
Herald furnishes the following notes Of the
course Of This Inc of Improvement
The main route as surveyed, commences
on the north bank of the lIarlaem river, at
point from which n convenient entrance
may be made into the city, either by the
fIarlacm railroad or such other route as may
be preferred. From thence II proceeds
north, through the county Of WeslChestcr
occupying for the first % miles, nearly md.
die ground between the Hudson river and
the wctcrs Of Long Island Sound. From The
north line of Westchestcr county, 1t passes
through the eastern part of Putnam md
Duchess countless nearly the centre of Co.
lumbla, and thence to the town Of Grecnbush
opposite Albany, and also 10 Bath, where we
break ground on Thursday; thence 10 Troy
III Rensselaer, county.
The line from lIarlacm River travcrscs
successfully. portions OF the valleys of either
the Slw Mill, Broux, Cro,on and Ten Mile
rivers, the latter oi which is a tributary of the
Ilousatonic. 1t also traverscs the productive
valleys Of the Croton, hncram Creek, and
Cline Hill, branch of the Kindcrhook, aud
from thence over the Undertook and Scho
dab Plains to the termination at Troy. The
whole distance is li7 miles, being about the
same ns the channel of the Hudson, and
ranging IN distance from it from fifteen TO
twenty five miles. The traveller upon The
Hudson, or by the post road its eastern
side, derives no correct idea of the true ica
lures of the productive country, as they cx.
Isl along the proposed route of the railroad,
as the deep ravincs aud prccipi,ious banks
which appear in many places along the cas-
tern slope of the Hudson river valley, and
which from their uufuvorable direction, would
present serious obstacles to the construction
of a railway IN the vicinity of The river, are
oil avoided by tho line as surveyed aud now
selected by the company. The construction
of this road to completion, with all the ne
ccssnry oppcndoges f1r use, is estimated al,
about two aud u bali million Of dollars, aud
We are happy 10 add that the whole tx
tcnt Of Inc has been placed under contract.

Who are The Friends ofhs Blacks ?-Let
the following, extracted from the Newbury-
port Herald, show this;
Mr.. Woodbury., of New Hampshire Mr..
Benton. of Missouri and Mr.. Calhoun, OF
South Carolina, declared it to be dangerous
to allow black men to serve in the army or
navy Of the u. S. in any other capacity than
that Of cooks and stewards. The same men
declare That the British Government makes
slaves OF tho East Induns. Ifihey do, the
English pursue a different policy. for they
encourage the enlistment Of these East Indian
slaves, and instead of being afraid 10 trust
arms in their hands, make them the main &c.
fence of the British empire in India.
! II is fact stated on the authority Of Mr.
Phelps. Senator from Vermont, that in Com
McDonough's victory on Lake Chanplain
one half oi the sailors were black men,
Some Of the best aud bravest sailors on board
the sloop Of war, Wasp, when she captured
the Frolic, were black men.
