GEORGE WASHINGTON.

The concour>e Of people assembled to
witness the funeral ceremony was immense.
The body was lowered in the grave, and
buried with all the honogs of war. The
Continentials fired three rounds over the
grave, while The booming Of cannon in the
adjoining enclosures reyerberated through
the highlands, The grave was closed up and
the benediction given, when the vast multi
tude speedily dispersed.
1t is impossible to utter the feelings that
filed the bosom as this old and noble soldier
was lowered to his lowly earthly bed. \
link that binds us to the revolutionary past
is broken. The last Of that band whose
pre-eminent services, devotion and watchful
ness gained for them Washington's special
regard-the old hero Of many years and
battles-seeps his last sleep; the earth covers
his venerated form from our sight.

siu, while the Anglo-Saxon race was boast
ing that the barbarians would not Withstand
their arts and sciences and power, scarcely a
single campaign; we ventured to predict that
they never could nor never would conquer
Russia. We think so still. Now, when
the Allies have 100000 men in the field
flushed with victory, when they are hoping
to acquire in the spring, Spain, Austria and
Denmark, we venture again to predict that
the present war will either close with a
peace honorable on the whole to Rassia, or
the Abandonment by the Allies OF their fool
ish and ruinous expedition
The war il we keep out ofi,) will open to
us boondiess market for all Our stores
and furnsh us with means to cut down
our forests and cultivate our prairies.
1t will lessen worthless emigration much
better than our political devices, secret
or open, and send us more of the good
and true and energetic, who will be wea-
ry of blood and slaughter. Let us stand
in our lot in these latter days-watch-
ing the dealings of Gods Providence among
the nations, serving him with all our hearts
and sohls. For if we seek Him, He will be
found of us-if we forsake Him, He will
cast us off forever.

Blow ye stermy winds of winter;
Drive the chilly, drifting snow,
Closely housed. the busy printer
Heeds not how he winds may blow.
Click, click, his type go dropping
Here and there upon his case,
As he stands for hours popping
Every letter in its place.
Heaven send the useful printer
Every comfort mortals need
For our nights are dull iii winter,
Had we not the news to read.
Sad would be the worlds condition,
Ifno printers boys were found
Ignorance and superstition,
Sin and suffering would abound.
Yea, il is the busy printer
Rolls the car Of knowledge on
And gloomy mantle winter,
Soon would reign if he were gone
Moneys useful, yet the mnters
Fill not half so high place,
Z As the busy, toling printers,
a Flinging type before the case.
Yetwhile the type they're busy setting,
Oft some thankless poppinjay
Leaves the country kindly letting
Printers whistle for their pay"
Oh! Ingratitude! Ungratious!
@Are there on enlightened soil
Men with minds so ncapacious
AS to slight the printers toll.
See him! how extremely busy.
Singing type before the case,
Toiling till he's almost dizzy
To exalt the human race. I'D. .tas
