Just read it once; perhaps it will besuiie'
W. Perhaps amuse-it will not take you long
If odd mistakes you finland some there De-
M Deal gently with them, for If we would stand
We must at first determine to agree, 1tr ..f

But if You doubt that what 1 say is true,
That faultsin you,S and is in the piece.

In dreams saw my " star of glory I" rise, 'i
And public praises cluster round my name.

For elegance and noble thought were there.
And dreaming still, saw form so bright,
In all the symmetry Of manhood's prime,
Who knelt before me and in accents light,
Whispered, II seek for talent--be thou mine. .
Believing that in me the +" gem of thought
Although so dormant now, in future days
Would spring to life, and finally be brought
To meet in print the worlds admiring gaze,

Hope, cheering. ever pointed TO success,
I cultivated what thought would seem
A poets attitude and poets dress

For higher duties called my thoughts

the following with reference to the movements
Of the Infants If the land may DOT b. without
interest:
A large and spirited meeting Of Infants
was recently held in Nurserydom. at which
they asserted their rights, and called for an
immediate redress Of the wrongs which have
been inflicted upon them.
Whereas. we haze been brought into ex-
istence without being consulted at all in re-
gard to our feelings and wishes, thus laying
the immediate authors Of our existence under
the strongest oblgatisus to sec that our
rights are protected and our wants supplied !;
therefore.
"Resolred, That We claim cur right to
draw our nourishment from the fountain ma !
ture has provided for our sustenance. and
which is universally admitted to b The only
source from Which We can derive materials for
o vigorous growth; and chat the too common
practice of cutting off our supplies from this
source. to avoid tie necessity Of attendance
TO our wants, IS iohuman. and unworthy Of a
christian mother
"Resoired, That we do earnestly protest
against the Partially sometimes exhibited b.
our mothers, in nursing lap dogs, and making
parlor companions Of them as though they
we're the real offspring instead Of ourselves,
while we are turned ont to Bridget
aResolued, That we claim as our right a
place in the parental bed, and deem it very
poor excuse for tucking us away with the
nurse, that our mother comes home from par
ties late at night, and does not wish to be
broken Of her rest.
"Reso'ped, That We are opposed to TAX
ing medicine. when it would seldom be re-
quircd if we were properly taken care Of by
our mothers and especially do We raise our
voices against the practice Of many nurses,
who secretly keep bottle Of paregor;c or

.'Resolred. That. in consequence af these
and other abuses to which we are subjected,

number die before We are able to take caro- Of

THE AMERICAN. CHARACTER

| cannot tell whether | rightly know the
American character; but of this am certain.
that what I do know of ii is more beautiful
aud more worthy to De lovedsban any other
that | am acquainted with in the world
Their hospitality aud warm heartedness, when
their hearts are once warmed, are really over
flowing, and know no bounds. And as some
travellers see aud make noise about their fail
iugs, it Is very well that there should be some
body who, before anything else. becomes ac-
uuaiuted with their sirtues And these iai.-
logs may all be attributed principally to the
useful life Of the people In many cases !
recognize precisely the faults Of my own youth
the asking Of questions, want Of reflection,
want Of observation in themselves and others,
boastfal spirit. and SO on. How free from
these failings, aud how critically alive to them
are the best people 10 the country. hmeri-
cas- best judges and censors of manners, are
Americans themselves
