The Happy Farmer.
sPoniatowsky

Saw we the farmer at his plough,
As you were riding by2
Or wearied meath his MONDAY toll
When summers suns were high2
And thought you that his lot was hard
And did you thank your God
That YOU and yours, were not cOndemnd
Thus like slave to Ilod2
Come. see him at the harvest home,
When garden, field and tree,
COnspire, with flowing stores, to hll
His barn and granary.
His heahhful children gaily sport
Amid the new mown hay,
Or proudly aid, with vigorous arm
His task, as best they may
The dog partakes his mnstersjoN
And guards the loaded vain,
The Ceathery people clap their wings
And lead their yOungling train.
Perehance, the hOury grandsire's eye
The glowing scene surveys,
And brealhes blessing on his race,
And guides their evening praise.
The harvest Giver is their frienl,
The Maker Of the soil,
And earth, the mother, gives them bread
And cheers their patient toll.
Come, join them round their wIniTy heai'ni
Their heartfelt pleasure see,
And you can better judge how bles'
The hrmcrs lie may be.

POETRY.

rs There is a stately fervor in the follow
ing fine lyric poem that renders it worthy Of its
great theme. None who are conversant with
the history of Poland and know the doubtful
struggle which she is now waging with her
tyrants, but will feel the power Of this song
We copy it from the Albany Argus.
Song for Poland.
BY WIN. II. c. HosMER.
Up, for encounter stern,
While unsheathed weapons CLEAN,
The beacon.fres of Freedom burn,
Her banners wildly streaml
Awake and drink at purple springs
Lol the white eagle flaps his wings
With a rejoicing scream,
That sends an old heroic thrill
Through hearts that are unconquered still!
Leap to your saddles, leap!
Tried welders of the lance,
And charge, as when We broke the sleep
OfEurope, at the call of France:
The kn;ghtIy deeds Of other years
Eclipse, we matchess cavaliers
While plume and pennon dance
That prince" upon his phantom steed,
In Ellstcr lost, your ranks will lead
Flock round the altar flock
And swear you will be free;
Then rush 10 brave the battle shock,
Like surges of maddened sea
Death, with red and shattered brand
Yet clinging to the rigid hand,
A blissful fate would be,
Contrasted with that darker DOOM
A branded brow--a living tomb
Speed to the combat, speed
And beat Oppression down,
Or win, by martyrdom, the need
OF high and shadowless rcnown;
Ye weary exilcs, from aar
Come hack and make the savage Car
In terror clutch his crown,
While wronged and vengeful millions roar
Defiance at his palace door.
Throng forth with souls TO dare,
From huts and ruined halls
On the deep midnigh, of despair
A beam ofancient glory falls;
The knout, the chain and dungeon cave
To frenzy have aroused the brave
Dismembercd Poland calls,
And through land opprest, betrayal,
Stalks Kosciusko's frowning shade.

THE TARIFF BILL

The new Tariff Bill has passed the Son.
ate. II was ordered 10 third reading by
The casting vote OF The vice President This
new Bill being decidedly against .he inter
ess ofPennsylvaDla, we could hardly believe
that Mr.. Dallas would have given his vole
in its favor. He has however, done so, and
although we condemn the &C! yet We are
to ascribe to him any other than
conscientious motives in the performance
of his duty in this particular, much less
would we countenance The Outrageous con.
due, which we learn has been enacted in
some place, Of burning him in efigy.

THE QUAKER OF TIE oLDEN TINE.
TIE Quaker Of the olden time
How calm, and firm, and true.
Unspotted by It's wrong and crime,
He walked the dark earth through!
The last of power the love Of gain!
The thousand lures of Sin
Around him, had no power to stain
The purity within.
With that deep insight, which detects
All great things in the small,
And knows how each mans lie anec's

He would by faith, and not by sight,
By faith and not by law;
The presence of the wrong or right.
He rather felt than saw.
He Eel, that wrong with wrong partakes'
That nothing stands alone,
That whose gives the motive, makes
His brothers sin his own.
And nausing not for doubtful choice
or evils great or small.
He listened to the inward voice
Which called away from all
Oh spirit of that early day,
So pure, and strong, and true,

And love and reverent to make
