The Swallow.
TO MADEMoIsELLE DE vINcY.*


Sleek, fitting swallow, why dost shun my way
Fleet as an arrow speeding to its goal
Art thou not weary of the figures. say,
Thou art describing on yon azure scroll
Come, rest thy folded pinions by my side
Why dost thou shun me He, thy fight woult
stay
Like thee, is crossing Lifc's blank descr
wide.
Upon this waste our dcstinies have met;
felt thy presence verging from afar;
The lightning wavings of thy wings of jet
Gave transient flashes, like some errant
star
No longer fear to nestle TO my breast
If thou dost weep, together well regret
Like thee l too am isolate from rest
Perhaps, alas like mine, some cruel lot
Relentless, hunts thee from thy native
home
Or wanton youth has crushed thy first loves
grot,
And thou hast left it, dcsolate to roam
Then build anew thy frctied, convex
Beneath my casemcntfrnmc a sheltered
spot
too, am cxiled from my fathers hall
Art seeking for some woolly couch, to spread
For those frail trembling ones, upon the
heath
AT once I'll gather them a downy bed
They shall be heated by my ardent bleath.-
How pftcn would my mother brave the
/. strife
OF dark, irhpassioncd tempests, riskng death
To multiply the C, mforts of my life !
Lo there, upon yon forests upland slope,
That cherished mansion with its gateway
rude;
For me those portals always haste to ope-
There thou may'st safely rear thy tender
brood.
Perhaps inhuman Fate, her wrath has
spent
Then thithcr bear the springing bough of Hope,
A sign of better days, like thee I'm sent.
mourn no morc-yct, if stern Tyranny
lie of the iron brow ard rayless glance
Should blast by touch, my household gods for
me,
lmprinting deep his foot on sunny France
Should fix his seal upon my dwelling
there
Like thee, I'll search my outawed Liberty
Where was her home, above the trackless
air.
A lady, at whose mothers mansion he was kindly en-
cnaincd, when fugitive from his native land.

denly, great wind arose and scattered them.
Washington attacked and took possession Of
the city. Ancrward, the English general
collected his forces and drove Washington
from his position. AT this, his soldiers were
greatly terrified, and wished to be disban-
ded but he with the same spirit as at first,
having collected and united his army, again
attacked the English with success. From
that time, during eight years of bloody con-
flict, while his army was often reduced and
weakened, Washington's spirit was undiinin-
ished, ard the English army had become old.
The French raised an army, and crossed the
sea, and joined Washington against the Eng
ish. Spain and Holland with their armies
admonished to peace. ri The English, un-
able to oppose, concluded treaty with
Washington, by which the northern part, a
cold country, was given up 10 them, while
the southern part, fertile region, reverted
to him.
Washington, having established the king
dom, disbanded his army, and desired to re-
turn TO the business Of busbandry; but all
were unwilling, and urged him 20 become
their ruler. In reply, before the assembly,
Washington said To obtain a kingdom Tor
ones self, to transmit to his posterity, is sell

such ought to be chosen to this office as have
virtue As TO w. he was an uncommon man.

all will close the nexl week after their oren-

The Superintendent is not able, at this
period of his arrangements TO state definitely

to each Institute. But each may rely on
such distribution and arrangements being
made. as will secure competent instruction
in every branch to which it is deemed desi-
rable that attention should be paid.
Teachers are requested TO furnish them
selves with writing materials, and with such
principal Textbooks as have been recommen-
ded, and are used IN the schools in their re.
spective Counties.
Arrangements have been made with the
Central, and Rutland and Burlington Rail
Road Companies, by which teachers will be
carried to and from the Institutes, by paving
fare one way. Provision will be made for
accommodating teachers, where the Institutes
are located, on as favorable terms as can be
secured. Tuition will be free and the Su.
perintendent earnestly hopes that teacher.

II would appear that the belligerent par

driven them from several towns-indeed
