Original pnstru.
FOR THE COLUMBIAN,
TO THE REPUBLIC,
HORACE INITIATED.


Unhappy vessel! shall the waves again,
Tumultuous bear thee TO the faithless main?
what would thy madness thus with storms to
sport?
cast frm thy anchor in the friendly port
Behold thy naked decks; the wounded mast
Ana sail yards groan beneath the northern, blast
Nor can thy keel unaided, longer brave
The rushing fury of the imperious wave.
Torn are thy sails, thy guardian Gods are lost,
Who saved thee oft in precious tempests tost
Tho late majestic in your pride you stood,
Home of the free, the white mans highest good
See Stevens stand, the Demon of the storm,
And Sumner followed by duslIy swarm,
While rights long sacred, boldly they deridc,
And Constitutions once the country's prdc
You now may vainly boast an empty name,
Or birth conspicuous in the rolls of fame.
The mariner when storms around him rise,
No longer on n painted stern relies;
Nor seeks te pilot mong the Cyclades,
Some learned landsman ignorant of the seas
All! then take heed, lest these new tempests
sweep,
In very truth, thy glories TO the deep
For sunlSen rocks along thy courses lie,
And clouds and storms hang heavy in the sky
An! thou so long our care, our love, our praise
Avoid those straits avoid those gloomy ways,
And bring TO us once more the halcyon days.

the paper carefully in it, and deposited
both in a writing-desl<, which he locked.
lie now grew more composed in his de-
meanor; but his original air of enthu-
siasm had quite disappeared. Yet he
seemed not so much sulky as distracted.
AS the evening wore away he became
more and more absorbed in reverie,
from which no sallies of mine could
arouse him. 1t had been my intention
to pass the night at the hut, as / had
| frequently done before, but, seeing my
host in this mood, / deemed it proper
to take leave. lie did not press me to
remain, but, as l departed, he shook my
hand with even more than his usual cor
diality.
1t was about month after this land
during the interval / had seen nothing
of Legrand)when received visit, at
Charleston, from his man, Jupiter. 1
had never seen the good old negro look
so dispirited, and feared that some Sc
rious disaster had befallen my friend.
"Well, Jup," said 1, "what is the
matter now?-how is your master:"
"Why, to speak de troof, massa, him
not so berry well as mought be-"
"Not we'll! l am truly sorry to hear
it. What does he complain Off"
"Dar! dat's it!-him neber plain oh
notin-but him berry sick for all dat.
Very sick, Jupiter why didn't
you say so at once? Is he confined to
bcd?"
"No, dat he aint he amt find no.
whar-dat's just whar de shoe pinch
my mind has got to be berry hebby
bout poor Massa WILL"
"Jupiter, should like to understand
what it is you are talking about. You
say your master is sick. Hasn't he told
you what ails him ?'
"Why, massa, taint WORT while for to
git mad about de matter-NIassa viii
say noflin at all aint de matter wild him
but den what make him go about
looking dis here way, wild he head down
and his soldiers up, and as white as a
gOsc? And den he keep Il syphon all
de time"
"Keeps what, Jupiter:"
"Kceps a syphon wild de figgurs on de
slate, dequeerest figgurs | ebber did see.
Ise gittin to be skeered, tell you. lIab
for to keep mighty tight eye pom him
mowers. fodder day he glib me slip
fore de sun up and was gone de whole
blessed day. l had a big stick ready
cut for to glib him deuced good beating
when he did come-but Ise sich fool
dat l hadn't dc heart arter all-he look
SO berry poorly"

MARE YOU A MAsON.n

Rev, Mr.. Magili, Rector of st. Paul's Church,
'eru, Illinois, being asked the above question by
lady, responded as follows:
am OF band
Who will faithfully stand
In the bonds of affection and lovo;
have knocked at the door,
Once wretched and poor,
And there for admission stood.
BY the help of a friend,
Who assistance did lend,
succeeded an entrance TO gain;
Was received in the West,
by command from the Fast,
But not without feeling some pain.
Here my conscience was taught
with moral quite fraught
With sentiments holy and true;
Then onward travelled.
To have II unravelled
What Hiram intended TO do.
Very soon TO the Fast
made known my request,
And '1ight" by command did attend;
When 10 perceived,
In due form revealed,
A Master, and Brother, and Triend.
Thus far have stated,
And simply related,
But I've "passed" since then,
And was "rased" up again
To sublime and ancient degree.
Then onward marched,
That might be "4Arched,"
And find out the treasures long lost:
When behold n bright flame.
From the midst of which came
4 voice which my cars did accost.
Through the "veils" then won't,
And succeeded at length
The "Sanctum Sanctorum" to find;
BY the "Signet" gained,
And quickly obtained,
Employment, which suited my mind.
In the depths then wrought,
And most carefully sought
For treasures so long hidden there;
And by labor and toll,
l discovered rich spoil,
Which are kept by the craft with dae caro-.
Having thus far arrived,
further contrived
Among valiant knights to appear:
And as Pilgrim and Knight,
stood ready to fight,
Nor Saracen foe did fear.
For the widow distressed .
There's chord in my breast;
For the helpless and orphan feel;
And my sword could draw
To maintain the pure law
Which the duty OF Masons reveal.
Thus havo I revealed
(Yet wisely concealed)
What the free and accepted" well know,
am one Of n band
Who will faithfully stand
IS a brother, wherever go.

AN oldmaid visiting newly married
