FR-’)M THE NORTHERN WHIG.
THE BOIVER OF J2 D./31’.

’TVVAS framed by Hope at morning’.
When heaven was free from shade—
The eastern sun, adorning
'I‘hc.f.tce of nature, played.
-Anrl while that sun was shining,
I-lope. plied his work divine-«
In gayest wreaths entwining
The branches of the vine.

A rainbow’s form was playing
V‘v'here clirystal waters fell--—'

And in meanders straying
They crossed the flowery dell ;

Through verdant vallies streaming
The rills in murmurs toll’d—-

i'vVhilst_ rays of brightness gleaming-,‘

Burnished its wave with gold.

But Joy hath ever slighted-~
I-Ier’s is the eagle-wing :
But time halh ever blighted
The promises of spring :
And on the spot we cherish
Fate sheds untimely gloom--
Darkly our blessings perish,
And leave the earth a tomb.

A frost came down at even {'-
To blast this bonny view, '
And that o’er-arching heaven
‘Was robed in murkiest hue :
Saw ye the black clouds hover
All coldly in the air-—
Saw ye the mildew cover
The rose that sparkled there ?---

lVliere is the dream of pleasure

That lit lIope’s fairy bower--—
VVhere that enchanting measure

That charmed the winged hour ?-—-
The dream of bliss hath cheated,
, Hope’s bower in ruin lies-—
The soiig of joy hatblleetcd-—-

The sun hath ltft the skies. ~.

The rill is new a river,
Its billows foaming wide--
The light liath gone forever
\Vhicb danced upon its time,
Ruin came on and shaded
The scene we lovtd so well——-
The vint;——the rain-bow futiC(l—---
Hope sighed her last farewell.

had washed out. The scene was dismal, and of-
fez‘;-(l one of those contemplating warnings, which
humble-2 man and acqttaints him with himself.—-
‘vVe now returned to the ship. H

‘Ne sailed, if I rem-ember, on the‘ latter end of
August. and in about 4.’) days discovetcd the blue
hills of Ireland. I had forgotten to notice, inits
place that Isul’fcrecl much from sea sickness : but
by the kind attention of our oflicers I soon recov-
ered. This happenet. immediately after we set
sail. VVe had good provisions, although it took
me some time to get habituated to them. out-
labor was not hard, and I really believe, had it
not been for that internal sorrow that continually
haunted’ me, I should have been pleased with the
adventure. The whistling winds that sighed
through the rigging, calmed my tlioughts by day.
and the rolling foaming billows lulled me in sot‘.
slnmb:-rs‘ by night. I was often saluted by the
rough‘ sailors on the voyage, for looking, they
termed it, * so d—d sober.’ One day I stood
leaning over th: ship’s r:.illl'g', iuoltitig towards
my natir: d—.-ar loverl land of liberty, and while
coiztentplattizig tn; former plc.-asures, dropped a
tea-.2: to th.-it !’.'l{"Y:‘-~':i‘_3‘. A sailor lnppciied to rio-
tice the IC'.‘.‘.', and in 2: C."-‘.‘. iiatztical style accosted
me thus; '~l’riti:e:-. 5 Van, tion’t be so d.tmn’d

me ifever l weep for any ofthem. It wont be
lone; ’fore I shall square my yard‘ and bear away
before some pleasant gale to meet them; and
then d’ye see I’ll take one in ‘cow for life.’ I sini-
I’..(l at the simple oratory of the sailor ; it was the
first smile that t.ad sat on my lips since I left But’-
falo.

'\Ve were now moored in a dock number 1' in
Liverpool, and the next day we CIlI€l".(l a dry
dock to have our ship new-coppered. This day
was the first time I ever sat my foot in Europe.
‘Vile-liad now a leisure time to wander about the

' city and behold the Stllpentlous works ofart. I

here bought me a suit of clothes and a watch,t‘ne_v
being much cheaper here than in America. VVe
lay here about 20 days, in which time our ship
was loaded with crockery and then set sail for N.
York. We saw nothing worthy of rem: rk on out
passage. It was very cold and severe working

the ship when we arrived on the coast, it being in '

the month of March of 1817, when we arrived at
New York.

I had now been a year from home and 8 months
from New-York, in Wl‘.I('.ll tiinc-I had suffered in-
credible hardships, remorse and despair. But
after all I had won a jewel of celestial value-——a
consolation that initigates the S0l‘l‘0*.\S of life, sof-
tens the rt.igged road‘ of disa-ppoiiit€tn_etit, guides
the poor penitent to paths of peace, when war
tempestuous lours and threatens the captive with
instant clcstrncv.ion——a balrn which heals the sting
of the foul monster death, and is a passport to life
everlasting. It was religion-—and that religion
which is not to be attained by church formali'ties
or show of grace, btit by fervent‘ andunceasing
prayer. It had preserved me on the mighty

elecp,’midst howling winds, roaring tempests,
dark and stormy nights and the mountainous
foaming seas. I was ever calm and serene, when
contending elements threatened us with instant

death; for storms, tempests, malignant skies,
noxious vapors, and all the dread artillery of hell
cannot prevail against him that puts his trust _,in
his Maker. V

My wages had now amounted to H2 dollars,
and I i"eceived what was now due to me, which
amounted to 96 dollars, (having expended some
in purchasing my clothes, watch, 82c.) After
kneeling down and thanking heaven with a fer-
vent heart for my safe return-, I went on board
the steam boat and startedfor Albany. 'I"lreg__
I took stage and went to Uticafil -f}n;n_}ri' thence
to Sangersfield, and stopped _at'_ , tli’s tavern.-
I here took a school and kept it six months. I
then engaged another in_ Brookfield, where I
taught three -months. It was .in March when
my school ended and I had been two years from
home. I now felt a desire stronger than ever of
returning, let the consequence be what it would 5
for I \\ as tired of the wicked deception respecting
my sex. I had now about 1.50 dollars. On the
latter end of April, I set out on my journey and
travelled through Utica and Johnstown; here I
stopped three days to view the handsome \illage.
It is a place of considerable trade and consists of
many well built houses. Inext arrived at a small
village called I"tmd'.tsbush and tgarried at W'etber-
bee’s ifI remember. t I observed that the land-
lord looked at me with a vigilant eye, and though
Iliad been about two years disguised as a male,
yet I now trembled fo'i*_fc-at‘ of detection. 1 next
stopped at Galway, and put up at John Smith’s
Hotel. Here I tart-ied a considerable time and
became personally acquainted with a number of
the inhabitants. My thanks are due to Mr. Smith
for his affable behaviour towards me. jfe is cer-
tainly a pattern of virtue, piety and patriotism.-—
I now concluded I had gratified -my own curiosi-
ty in remarks on the country, and therefore re-
solved to lose no time in getting ready to start for
my own peaceable abode. My heart beatlightly
at the thoughts of once more visiting the place
where I had received the earliest engrafting of
education and happiness.

I had not heard from home since my absence.
nor had I |'LC_t:I\t'(i the least imellig-.~nce from Ed-
win since I left Buffalo. It was lit’.-\V June, i818.
After employinga carriage to take the to the town
of Agttclttticas, I began my journey with merry
heart. The season alone was calctilated to in-
spiic me with pleasure and gladncss of he-a='t -
VVhilc the swift wheeled cart iage rollt d along be-
twecn the vine covered hills, I ccnttsmplated the
beauties of nature which Slll‘l’()lll’tfit.'(l me. The
lowing kine, the plat, ful bloating l2.:~.‘.h, the pran-
cing frolicksoine colt, and the Eight tic-;3e.l active
calf, tended to inspire me with those delightful
'.:CllSi.l'.lUllS uhich are beyond description. The
noisy water-l'all lulled me into soothing raptures,
the tuneful bird awakened in my own breast the
song of gratitude. while the shrill voice ofthe
ploughman was music in my ears. They all de-
clared to me that an immortal omniscience up-
holds the vtorld, and that a celestial arm has pla-
Cod tit.-in there. At night when darkness cover-
ed these scenes from my view, I contemplated
the deliglitful days of my innocence, when I was
fondly carres:sed by doting parents. I painted
on my itiiar,-itirttioi't all that I once admired. My
soul was full of energy. Itastcd a sanative balm
tor a wounded mind. I was absorbed in the de-

be married to Eliza: and the thought of his lie-.
ing married and possessing my father’s farm was
very disagreeable. I regretted the loss of my
youthful seat. the sweet nourisher of my infancy,
and was confident that had I arrived at Buffalo
sooner, I should have been the happy wife of Ed-
win.

Filled with these corroding reflections, I burst
into tears; when I heard swift lbotsteps without,
and in an instant a man richly dressed entered my
room. It was Edvtin._ He, after gazing at me
"a moment, exclaimed, ‘ It‘ is Cordelia,’ and then
caught me in his arms. ‘ Mine art thou,‘ 0 Cor-
delia,’ said he. ‘ mine forever.’ It was all he
could utter—-the words died on his lips. Tears
gushed into his brilliant eyes as be pressed me
to his melting bosom-—tears flowed down my
checks on ‘meeting again one whom I never ex-
pectedto see in this world. In our delirium of
happiness we both for a while forgot even that we
were mortals. Sage philosophers l in vain do
you assure us that happiness like this is al1anhy-
pothesis—mere delusion 1 Experimental knowl-
edge forbids. After the conflict c‘ passion sub-
sided, Edwin informed me that after receiving
my letter at Buffalo, wherein he learned I was
not married, he immediately left his Eliza in pur-
suit of me ; but his search was unsuccessful, as
he heard nothing from me. He then came back
to the town of Agadnacas, where by craft be dis-
coveted that the letter which he received at Buf-
falo concerning my marriage was written by my
sister Emma according to the instructions of my
tnother—-that my father by some unwise steps
and fraudulent undertakings had spent his estate 5
that the property being set up at public vendue,
he had bidden it off, having been very successful
‘in trade for the twoyears past, and by the assist-
mice of friends, he had been enabled to pay for
the farm on the day of vendue, which was about
a month previous to my arrival ; tba__t when I first
started from home my father had made no inqui-
ry‘ after me, thinking I was going to an uncle of
mine about 100 miles distant ; that after finding.
that I had not been there, and hearing nothing
from me, he had given me up lor (lead ; that
they had often begged his pardon for the unhap-
piness they had caused him; that my brother
Ilenry had married the amiable Miss Marietta,
and lived a happy life, being very prosperous.—-
\Ve spent about two hours at the tavern, and then
walked together to his house, which was now
empty. 'We ent red, and I was filled with sud-
den emotions on lit.-lrciltliiig again the lofty build-
ing that once coritained all my earthly happi-
ness.

Edwin now left me to go to my father’s to bring
nwc my clothes. Mean while I rumaged every
room in the house. It was now desolate and
lotiesomc. ‘Whenever I beheld some marks of
my youth, I would stop and drop a tear to their
l‘l]t.'l’llOl'y. Ed win now returned, and for the first

selfin a female garb; satisfied with a convincing
proof that a woman may at any time pass dis-
guised in male habiliments before the most pen-
L‘ll'alI.'l§; eyes; and I have now satisfactory rea-
sons that there-,arc at this time many women
travelling the country in the semblance of a male.
I scarcely knew how to act. Being dressed in
cainbric I felt the lightness of a ldather. Soon

‘We had new attired at the old tavern about 2
miles distant froin my fathci"s house. I nor; paid
my :ll‘l*.'Cl' and he i'etot-nvgd to (‘.al~.-.ay. In what
Way to ilttziit; myself known to my par.--nts l knew
not. At length I concluded to furnish myself
with at female garb, and early in the rnotning,

after Henry entered. He was overjoyed on be-
holding mr. again dressed as a female. VVe now
szarted together and travelled to my father’s-,t
where I found my father and mother in tears.-—
ouflice it to say, they -asked my forgiveness, and
I readily granted it. ‘Ne now returned to the
house of Edwin, _\rhcre our clergyman soon on-
tered ancl joined our hands forever.

My sorrows were now at an end. My melan-
choly day was gone and succeeded by joy un-
speakable. Happy in the company of-a man I
love, my sorrows are all forgotten. My sleep is
only interrupted by visions of the past. Some-

whiie it was yet dark, to (lress triysclt‘ therewitti,

him-—i‘t was a farmer’s hired man, who lived near
by my father. I perceived by his conversatior.
that he knew me not. I therefore asked some
questions of him concerning my father. ‘ Does
ivlr. Kratslive at his old place,’ said I, ‘ and is he
and his wife enjoying good health 3’ ‘ O sir,’ said
the fellow, with a careless air of indill'erence,.
* Mr. Kl‘a‘lS has run aground at last, as the saying
is. I-le cheated and swindled until he perceived -
his property t'utit1in;}; from him like a snake from
a ‘tiger, and so he thought he would catch what
he could of it in hi-1 belly, by swallowing the rich
mugs of flip. He is now drained as the saying. His
wileled the old devil into so many scrapes that
now they have not a cent to save their wretched
sotils from starving. They cut up their capers
with one Edwin, but Ed. worked them at last.——
The farm was set up at vendue, and Ed. hid it
off and paid for it down in liard di‘.5llé1l‘S- E"0l'.V

lcll you he is waiting for Cordel‘ia.’ He now
st~..t'tir.g up, ran to join his fellow workmen, who
were just passing by. After fairly revolving the
matter within myself, I sat down and wrote the
following letter to Edwin ; for my love for him
was still pure and unsltaken :-=-

‘Dear Ed-7uz"n——Shal'l I once more become a. A
bumble supplicant to you. and beg that friendship

of my own ? No, Edwin, you are too well convi.-n-’
ced my lose for you was that of a sister for- a

parents towards you, or by a false heart you de-
serted me in that trying moment when I had no
one to help me or be my protector. VVhcnI
discovered your design of marrying, 1 flew from
you to reap comfort in a world where I have en-
dured incredible hardships. I have returned and
am now at the tavern of E---—, come there and
you will learn more. You must not fail of com-
ing. I urge it as a duty incumbent upon you.—-
It is the last- request of your wretched .
. ' CORDELIA.’

I sealed and sent this letter by a lad I had em-
ployed for that purpose. And now what anxiety,
what perplexity was I involved in? I began to

times I fame) in my dreams that I hear the call
of ‘all hands on deck.’ from the second mate,
which suddenly awakens me, and then the ris-
ion flees away. Two year-. and four n‘u:nths I

T/ze duty of Your/2 to Oid ./1ge.——A mong all the
duties of youth, there are none which more beau-
tify tlieircliaractcr, than it becoming respect for
the aged. It was strictly enjoined in the laws
given by Moses, as follows :—-‘ Thou shalt rise
up before the hoary head, and honor the face of
the old man.’ By a respectful observance ofthis
duty to the aged, the young place tliernsclves in
a situation to receive wisdom ofexperience,which
is a light to their feetin the path of life. As we
wisely inquire the way of those who have travel-
led‘ the road, so should the young listen to the di-
rections_ol'those who have actually passed through
the vicissitudes which lie between those that have
but just conin-ie'nced the journey of life.

L_normous Bird.—- Mr. Henderson has discover-

ed lllma they had frequently, in their hunting ex--'
°U}'“0_"5s met with skeletons, and even feathers of
this bird, the quills of which were large enough
to admit a t_nan’s arm. This is a fact in support
of the tradition, that the earth was formerly in-
habited by giants; for men, not exceeding our-
selves in stature, would have been helpless against
birds of prey of this magnitude. Captainicook
mentions having seen a monstrous bird’s nest in

River, with trees upon it, and an incredibletn-um-

other bird, of an enormous size; it was built with
large sticks upon the ground, and was not less
than twenty-six feet in circumference, and two
feet eight inches high.

An Eagle was killed in Branford a few da ‘i
since, which measured. from the tip of one wing
