ODE TO FREE TRADE.
by ]. s. BuCKINGHAM.

If Gods free bounty bids this Globe produce
More than enough for all his creatures use,
Shall man fnonopolize the free supplyf
See brutes full fed, while fellow-mortals die?
For man and beast alike, abundance yields.
Free as the winds and chainless as the sea
Should intercourse between all nations be:
Wherever land Is found, or oceans roll,
Or man exists-from Indus to the pole
Then would unfettered Industry be paid,
In the rich wealth its own free hands had made;
Then would mankind fulfill heavens first decree,
And earth with fruitfulness repenished be;
Then would wars blood-red banner soon be furied,
And Peace triumphant reign thro' out the world;
While freighted fleets would traverse every sea,
And commerce wing her way, unchecked and free
Island be linked to island-Main to Main
Binding all nature fast in loves harmonious chain

TRUTH.

He who has the Truth and keeps 1t,
Keeps what not to him belongs,
But performs selfish action,
That fellow mortal wrongs.
He who seeks the truth and trembles
At the dangers he must brave,
Is not fit to be freeman
He, at best, is but slave.
He who hears the truth and places
Its high promptings under ban,
Loud may boast of all that's manly
But can never be man.
