TO MISS **** FOR FEBRUARY 14/r'z!.
Ttiis. Valentine, '
So very fine:
In ev’ryline,
Is yours or mine, _
For no one else shall see
The little thing,
Before the spriiig,
On eagle’: wing,
' In haste shall bring
ge.~ sweets and flowers to thee.
But then so gay,
In blooming May,
\’Vhere lovers stray,
And lanrbkins play,
The birds may hear thee sing
A sweeter note,
Than ever thought,
Or fancy, wrote
From warbler’s throat, .
Tlrat tirade the wild woods ring.
For then the harm
Of love’s alarm.
\Virhont the charm
Of magic arm,
Invades the coldest form;
The day so bright,
The hearts deliglit,
Succceds the flight
Of wiuter’s night,
And gloouiy chilling storm.-
1\’or- vernal sliade,
-Nor flow’ry glade,
llatlr nature tirade
Lilie thee, fair maid,
Sp lovely to the view:
Pure uatui'e’s child,
In mariners mild, .,
Nor auglit defil’d
. By passions wild,
{,§’crivheliiiiiig and lllill‘l2C/
The heart tinltuowv, .
"Winch sighs, alone,
To clasp thy own,
E’cr youth has llowu,
Sliall hold thee evrr dear,
When fieecy snows
The winter slrows,
\Vlien v_crrial blows
The blushing rose,
‘On tliroogh-the varied year.
The violet blue,
'1'lielpiiik-~for you
In early dew _
W-iili fragrance iiew,
Shall all their beauties blen-d,;:
For {lowers bright
To bcaiiiy’s sight,
Like starry night,
May give delight
Wlieii other pleasures end.
The gimple tale
May nought avail ;-
The blootiiipg dale,
Like story stale,
May charm the mind no more:
Brit constancy,
My only plea,
Can never be
Dispis’d by thcc,
While swelling hillows roar,
Yet, maiden dear,
Must trembling fear,
Tlirougborrt the year,
Be liarbor’d here,
That thou wilt ne’er be mine;
For still thy heart,
Devoid of art,
Ne’er felt the smart—-
Nor thrilling dart-—
May scorn my Valentine.

ESSAY I.
“ I'IONF.STY,” says an old adage, “is the
best policy.” But it has long ceased to be the
most prolitable. A man might as well seek
rest on the wild and tuiririltnous mean, or
knowledge at the portals oftlie grave, as to
endeavor in these uiifrieridly times, to obtain
3 subsistence by conducting his business-in an
honest and lionourable manner, let him be
ever so prudent and attentive.
It is in vaiir to deny, that ifan lionest man
and a rogue, whose capacities for transacting
business are equal, both enter into the world
at the satire time, the chances are nearly all
in favor of the latter.
In the present situation of the mercantile
world, ruiputleiice IS an important ingredient
in the composition ol a man of busiiiess. Ol
this your complete rascally knave usually
possesses the greatest share. Ull8IIC|III|l)el‘fiLl
will. honor or honesty, he dashes along thio’
every obstacle, and generally meets with the
wished -for success, leaving far behind him his
far iuore honest compciitor,ivho, scrupiiloiisly
fearliil ol infririgirig on the rules of right, and
tramelled with principle, tho’ equally iridus-
uious, toils after him in vain.
This worltl,at least this part of it, is no
place for an honest man, unless he be ena-
moured with poverty. A man who is thor-
oughly honest, unless he is very well a(,'(}ll?tllll.-
ed with the principles of niankiiid in g-siieriil,
is too apt to be urisuspicioirs ofihe motives
and designs of others, and tlicreloie lays lIIIlI-
selfopcn to be deceived by them. One half
ofihe lititnan race always were and art,-,,).5
will be the prey ol the other. A moiety at
least ofthe world is eornposcil or swimjie.-5
and iriipostois, who are always lying in wait
to take advantage of the uususpi-cling and
opeii-hearted.
Iran honest man, by cliance, be successfiil
in business and arrive at oprilerice, he may
perliaps maiiitaiii a respectable cliaracicr ;-—
buia 5l'°uld lie tlrrorigh rigidity of pl'lll(:Ipl6,l
and by adhering to old fashioned notions of
honor and tionesty, be uiifortiiuate in his en-
deavors, when by pursuing a contrary coiirsc
ol 2‘ir.llUn he might have amassed a fortune,
he is laughed at, neglected aria despised.
Here then, generally speaking, is the only
alternative. While the world says totlie liar,
mg swiiidler. and the cheat——‘ go on and
prosper,’ it tells the holiest and the'iipi‘ight to
* go and starve 1’ It says to iliern——* go yo
outfioiii among us,.ye are not oi us, and here
is i.c place for you.’
Fioiii this cause rt- is that the honest man
creeps along through life unnoticed and neg-
ecged, while the rich and stvindling scorindrel
is looked tip to with deference and respect.
Who then would be honest in a dishonest
world :9 “Tho is simple enough I0 be honest
and poor, while wealth spreads all her stores
before the knavish and designing? What
though religion have inscribed in Ilallling
characters, over the alluring fruits ofinfaniy
and deceit——‘ eat and die, refrain and live,’-
who would obey its precepts, when by so doing
they must subject theuiselves to conteirrpt and
poverty. _ _
Let each one decide for himself, keeping
this great and solemn truth in view, that while
man looketh only at the outward slioiv, COD
SEETH THE HEAIV1‘. T» 1&-
Norwalk, Feb. 1826.
Cherolitee .:9Iphabet.—A Clierokee named
George Guess, a few years since, invented a
form of alpliabetical writing in his native lan
guage, which has attracted much attention
among his countrymen. 'By a notice ofthis
invention in the last report ofthe Priitlenlial
Coinrriittee oftlie American Board of Com-
missioners, we learn that Guess, tho’ never
taught to read or speak the Englisli language,
became acquainted with the principle oftlie
alphabet, and thus conceived the notion that
' he could express all the syllables in the Cher-
okee language by separate marks or charac-
ters. He iurrnediately commenced the labor
of collecting all the syllables which he could
call to recollection, and to express these,
which were 89. in number, he used the letters
ofour alphabet and supplied the deficiency
with cliaracters of his own invention. ‘Vim
these symbols he wrote letters ; be instructed
otliers in the use ofthcm ; and the interest of
the subject has so increased that young Cher-
okees travel a great dist.ince to gain a know-
.lcilgo ofthis method of writing anti reading.
Soon after the invention, also, a correspond-
ence was also opened Sc inaiiitaiiieil between
the Clierokecs ofWills Valley and their corin-
lt_VII)f'I‘l beyond the Mississiprii, 500 miles dis-
taut from each other. 'I‘liiee (lays only, are
necessary to be spent in learning the system
so as to coiriineiice letter writiiig——and it is
the opinion of some of the rtiissioiiaries that
iftlie Bible were translated and. primed ac-
cording lti this plan, iiidividiials who krtow
nothing of English. would learn to read it in
21 single uroiith. Four other syllables have
lie-en discovered since the invention by Guess,
uiaking all the known syllables oftlie Cher-
kee laugriiige but eighty-si.\:.
Mr. VVorcestcr, one oftlic Missioiiarics of
the Board, has devoted some attention to an
exziniination of the system, and has given at
description of the cliaracters and their use. in
his couimuiiications. Ile says that a few
hours ofinstiuciioii are siilficicnt for a Clier-
olaee to learn to read his own language intel-
ligilily; and though he will not in so short a
iinie learn to read flneiitly; yet fluency will
be easily acquired by practice.
He says also. that there is no part of the
nation where the new alphabet is not under
stood, and he expresses the opinion that this
method ofwriting the laiigiiage. will eventu-
ally prevail over all otlrers.——1{cposit’ory.

Dizrtf and Dumb Insliiuli'on.—'I‘liree le-
male pupils of this insritiiiioii froui Pliilaidel»
plilit, on their way home to Fayette county,
spent a lew days among their relatives in this
place. A jest or an apotlregein often exhib-
its the most striking views ofa subject, and
we believe an anecdote. that occurred during
their stay here, will show in ii pointed man-
ner, the utility of the instruction. 'I‘lie visit
ers to them were iinmcrous, anti aniciig them
several Yankees. who were curious to know
ivhetliei the deaf and dumb knew any thing
of the Y-airliees. ’I‘lic qiiestiori was put to
the youngest, “ What are Iiin/recs T’ Shi-
not kiiowing, asked iii-.i"sisti1rs, when one ol
Lllft'III ‘after .i little (2-1‘rl‘l5l(Iel'itlIflll made a si-git

this answe-r—“ They are people living in the
r-asierri states, famous for making wooden
-nutmigs.”
Daring Out:-age.—On Friday morning, a
iiiffi:-in eiitei-ed the tlrvolliiig ofa Mr. Zr-bley,
in Wilirriugtoii, (Dcl.) and asked for money
iVIr’s. Z., who was alone excepting a small ,
child, replied that she had none. He replied
that he eirew better, and seizing a knife.
thrust it through her back, so that it penetra-
trd nearly through the ahdorireii. He: their
left ilie house, leaving the woman it-err.-nii-,1
in blood. The cries of the ciiild brought a
neighbour totlie liniise, and there was lift-.
enough in the wouiaii to enable tier to tell the
iiurritl tale. On Sunday, a iiiair :tl1SWCl'lll_:1
the description, was arrested about twenty
miles below Wiliiiington, upon suspicion, anti
he has been couiuiiited alter an examination.
The woman is dead.
Charleslon.—-Tliree adilitional attempts
have been made to burti the city ol"Cliarles-
ton, in three difl'crerit parts of the town. 'I‘iic
Courier states that in all of these sitiialioiis,
one at each extremity, and the other in the
centre of the city. the most unequivocal evi-
dences of a determination to destroy the
town, are exhibited. Tire steps hitherto a-
dopted to avert this awful calainity, do not
appear to have produced the desired effect.
Female I’a£riotism.—Iii the speech of Mr.
Pearce, on the bill for the i-eliel'of'Penelope
Denny, he III€IilI’.)nf_’(I the under peiitzoat ol
Mrs-Bailey, ofSlom'ng'lo72, instead of Grotoii,
the scene ol her patriotic licroism. (Iii r. Bar-

rected Mr. P.) The iritrodiirttioii of so sin-
gular an article in a coiigressioiial tlehatr-,
might excite a smile, unless accompaiiieil b_i
an explanation. -In 1814, when Com. Dc-ca

Stonington was attacked by the eneiuy and
gained immortal honor by rcpulsirig tlrerri.—
Attacks were also threatened Orr Neit'L()ndon

the enemy almost within gunshot, Mrs.Bailey
wife of Captain Elijah Bailey, postmaste.r,.,-a
gentiine daughter of ’76, who had remarried
firm at her post, loosened and kicked off her
flannel, bidding them take it in delence ofher
country, and if any other gartuerit would be
of service, they might have tliat‘also. Major
Smith, present high sheriff oi the county,
gave his drawers for the same purpose. The
peuicoar, however, was not made into cartrid-
ges by the gallant voluirteers, who made a
standard of it, declaring they would fight tin-
der it to the last drop of IIIBIT I)l00(I rather
than strike it to the enenry. PresidentMon-
roe, on his tour through Connecticut, was in-
troduced to Mrs. Bailey, and told the story,
which was also repeated to Lafayette on his
visit to that place on seeing the heroine ol
the aiiecdote.——.N'. Y. Statesman.
The eccentric Mr. R ,.‘r.Iinister of
Jedburg, had a habit of asking so many qties-
tions iii a breath, that he could get a reply to
none oftlrein. Once, however he had met
with a permit who was able to aecouiinodate
him. Riding home frotri a Sacrament, by a
nrtrirland i'oa:l,and coming towards a ford, he
met a woman who had crossed the river with
a sack ofrrieal upon her back, whom he thus
accosted, “ Weel, Janey, how’s a’ ivi’ you?
How far is it to Jeddart? How deep is the
water ? W liat’s the price ofyoiir nreal ?” To
which she replied, “Very weelql llmnli YOU,
sir-—twa inile—iniddle decp—&L a saxpence.”
Two elegant plaid cloaks, made of fulled
cloth, invented and nianufactured by a young
lady of Connecticut, have recently been of-
fered for sale in Albany. The cloth is fine,
of thick texture, and lined with a collar of
mole skins. A cloak of the saiuc kind and
made by the same bands, was seen at the ex-
hibitioii oftloinestic manufactures iii the Cap-
itol last year. That one was presented to the
late President ofthe United States.

mighty God, that He would be pleased to par

that He would irrclitie our hearts to learn and
practice heavenly wisdom. so that we may
thereby forsake the sins which easily beset us,
and follow the perfect pattern which the Holy
Gospel has set belorv us, in the person of our
Divine Saviour and Judge ;—-that he would
grant us the aid of His blessed Spirit, to re
form the temper of our minds, infiise into our
souls virtuous and cliaritatilc feelings, fit us to
become Christians. and prepare us for a glo-
rious arid blessed immortality.
And while siipplicatitig His mercy in the

proinotiiig the just end ofcivil government,
and the good of those over whom they are
