N TIONAL BANNER. .
When freedom, from her iiiountain h-eight,
Unfurl'd her standard to the am

She tore the azure robe of nights

And set the stars ofgl0I')' there !
She-niingled with its gorgeous dyes

The milky baldric of the Slilefis _

And striped its pure celestial white

With streakings of the morning light;
Then from her mansion in the stiii

She called her eagle banner down,

And gave into his mighty hand

The symbol of her chosen land.

 

Majestic monarch of the clotid !

Who rear’st aloft thy regal form,

To hear the tempest trumpingloud,
And see the lightning latices driven,
When stride the warriors of the storm
And rolls the thunder drum of hcav’n‘!
Child of the Sun l to thee ’tis give'ii,
To gtiard the bantier ofthe free,

To hover in the sulphur smoke,

To ward away the battle stroke,

And bid its blendirigs shine afar,
Like rainbows on the clouds of war;
The harbinger of victory!

Flag ofthe brave! thy folds shall fly l
The sign ufhope and triumph high l
“Then speaks tliesignal trumpet tone,
And the long line comes gleatniiig on,
(Ere yet the life blood, warm and wet,
Has diinin’d the glist’tiiiig 'bayonet,)
Each soldier’s eye shall brightly turn
To where thy meteor glories burn,

And, as his springing steps advances

‘ Catcli war and vengeance frotn the glance!

And when the cannon-niouthings loud,
Home in wild tvreaths the battle shroud,
And gory sabres rise and fall,

Like shoots of flame on midniglit’s pall!
There shall thy victor glances glow,
And cowering foes shall sink beneath
Each gallant arm that strikes below
That lovely messenger ofdcath.

Flag of the seas! on oceau’s wave

Thy stars shall glitter o’er the brave.
‘When death, careering on the gale,
Sweeps darkly rotind the bellied sail,
And friglited waves rush wildly back,
Before the broadside’s reeling rack,

The dying waiid’rer of_tlie sea

Shall look at once to heaven and thee,
And stnile to see thy splcndors fly,

In triumph, o’er his closing eye.

Flag ofthe free heart’s only home,

By angel hands to valor given,

Thy stars have lit the welkin dome,

And all thy hues were born in Heaven!
Forever float that standard sheet l

VVliere breathes the foe, but falls before us,
'Witli frt-.cdoni’s soil beneath our feet,
And freedotii’s baniit-r streaming o’er us?

GOOD EFFECT OF CREDULITY.

There lived some years ago, in the town of
,4...-—, in Connectictit, a man who was much
addicted to the practice of conveying his
nt2igliboi"s property to his "own use without
or and. The clergyman ofthe town suspect
ing him of making too free use “of his hay,
had one night concealed himself in his barn
with his dark lantern "The thief soon ap-
peared, antl tying up a large bundle, had jtist
left the premises, when the Rev. owtier, iti-
stead of bowling out, “ You Scoundrel you!
what do you mean by stealing my hay,” dis-
engaged the candle froui the lantern, and
dexterously applied it to the cotiibt stible load.
The bundle was soon in .: bright laze——and
the unlucky follow suspecting he was pursu-
ed by sotne person with a light, laid- his feet
to the ground with titicotntiioii agility. But
it was in vain to try to escape the pursuing
fire. The blaze, increasing in brightness as
he ran, seemed to his terrified llllaglllallttll to
cotiie every moment nearer, till venturing to
turn round to discover the extent ofhis dati-
ger, be perceived to his astonishment that the
stolen hay was on fire. How it came so puz-
zled him not a little. Btit as coriscions guilt
assisted his natural crtedulity, he finally set-
tled down upon the conclusion that the fire
was sent from heaven to admonish him of his
transgressions. .Full oftliis alarming notion,
he gait; liiniselfno rest until he had gone to
the parson and made confession of liiscriine,
and related the supposed extraordinary and
terrible warning from heaven. The Rever-
end gentleman liumored his credulity, under
the idea that it might reform his life. He
was not mistaken ; for the blazing hay had
niade so deep an in.-pressioti on his tniiid, that
from thcnceforth lic forsook his evil courses,
became a valuable member of society, and
was united to the flock ofthejudiciotis clergy-
man, who had assisted so materially in his re-
fortiiatioii. He finally died an honest man,
in the firm beiiefof the interposition ofProv~
idence in setting fire to the stolen bay. The
parson kept the secret till the poor man w.is
laid in the dust——but even the clerical tongue
could no longer resist the desire of communi-
paling so curious an incident.

Description of the Bridcwcll in Edin-

burgh-—from Cartcr’s' Letters.

The construction of the Britlewcii is pecul-
iar. A semicircular tower rises in the centre,
‘through which there are narrow openings,
eointiianding a full view ofall the cells of the
convicts, ranged in a concentric semicircle.-
In front are grates and blinds, which prevent
the tenants from seeing one anotlier,altlioiigli
their niovenients may be watched from the
observatory in the cetitre. It is a kind oCpa-
zioraiiia, where all sorts ofiiiechanical opera-
tions ure going on. Some are spinning, some

_ iveavitig, and others sewing, while the males

are employed at their sevcraltrades. An art-
Zst woultt here find a good subject for a pic-
ture. A lassie at her wheel was solacing her
labour by a sweet Highland air. Others of a
graver turn were reading the bible, a copy of
which is appropriated to the use ofevery con-i
vict, and was found lying tipoti the pillows oi.
the neat and comfortable beds. In the base-
ment is tread-mill was seen in motion. Its‘
power is entirely wasted. Macliiiiery was
once attached to it ; but on experinient,it was
found to be unprofitable, and has been given
up. The construction and police_of this pen-
‘itentiary exceed any thing of the kind that I
have seen in Europe.

Breach of Promise of ."l!arrz‘age.— Hitherto
the protection ofqur Courts under this knotty
point of law and tiiorals, has been claimed ex-
clttsiyely by deserted females’ At the pres-
cnt (Jirt.-tiit Court, however, in this city,judge-
Walwortli ,Pl'€5ldlllg‘°8 veteran twain, named

jCi-awford, not numbering less. than N win-
ters——and somewhat addicted to asthma and
apoplexy, brought his suit for damages sus-
tained in disappointment and tortured feel-
ings, against a fair maiden of65, Whom he
had wooed and won, but who at the vet)’ m°'
merit that was to make him liappy——-when
cake, bridegroom, and the nuptial _toroh
were all ready, and the two latter. burning-—
_revoked her promise, atid left him a lieart-

what is worse’, the pity of.the world.” This
crtiel she is nariied Benford, and against her
the complaining aiitieiit Cupid asked, the
vengeance tiftlie laws. The case excited not
a little merrime_iit, and occupied the Court
all day. The jury brought their verdict into
Court this tnorniiig. It was for the plaintif},
aad mulcted the fair deceiver in $QO0 dama-
ges and the costs. So ladies take warning.

Theful-{lily of.so_nie of the catial projects
which have ttiriied the brains of many a vis-
ionary pliilatithropist may be seen from the
followitig facts :-—Tlie proposed’ canal from
Bnstonliarbor to Hudson river was to have
rttii througli Hoosack mountain by a tunnel
four miles in length. Assuming that twenty
men can be employed at both ends ofthe tun-
nel, and might excavate 100 cubical feet per
day, it would require one hundred and eigltly
years and _/[fly eight days to coiiiplete it ! !

Tue. Chi-sztpealte and Ohio canal is also to
be cut through a mountain, and by recent
calculations we find the expense of the canal

- estimated at thirty millions ofdollars ! !

Selling Rum not the way to make money.--
A neighborhood of s'obt-r. l:1(ltlSll‘lt)llS, tliriviug
people, will have ' the niea-.»s ofpurchasing a
tiiticli larger amount of useful goods. and thus
of better supporting the honest trader, than a
coiiiniuiiity' ofdrtinkards. Production is as
essential toa prosperous coitinierce, as cori-
stimptinn. A race ofnicn who produce noth-
in-4, will not long be able to produce and con-
sunie. Druiikards produce, at least, less than
they consume. Drutikeiiness is therefore inani-
fesily injurious to the interest ofthe merchant
and trader; atitl it must be wholly a wrong
view oftlieir own interest, that can induce

- any of them to couritctiaiice it.

Planting Potaloc3.—As the _ season for
plat.-ting potatoes is fzist approaching, andlas
there is a variety of opinions on that stihjéct,
the following remarks, wliich are the result
ofprtictical observatioii, may not be uninter-
esting to some of otir readers. Potatoes
should never be planted wliolt-, whatever may
be their size, as they all produce the same
ntiinber of shoots, almost invariably five,
which is too great a ntitiiber to be together, in
rirtler to make a good crop. As the whole
potaioe, however large, or however itiaiiy
eyes. (or btit‘ls,) it may have, never produces
more than llvt‘ shoots, which are all on the end
adverse to the stem, care should be taken
that they are out lotigitutiinally, whit:li,tvlietli-
er lizilvc-l, oi qllil'.'lL}l'€l.l. tsliltely to ~'..lll'ltl6 the‘
productive buds among the St‘Vt‘l".!l parts.-
Ouc third oftlit=.- stem end should first be cut
off, which is without it bud ; that will not pro-
dtice a shoot, btit is valuable for the table or
stock, and of no service to the planted part.——
It is therefore a saving that ought never to bi.-
omitted. Thus prepared, the potatoes should
ifplanted in rows, be fr-..~in ciglit to ten inches
apart; ifin hills, three or four pieces in each.
Great care should be‘. observed ‘not to have
the furrows, or trenches for planting deep.—-
Hills, in which they are seldom planted below
the surface of the earth, generally produce
the finest potatoes.—./Vat. 1711.

A sailor coming across Blacklieath one
evening, was stoppetl by a footpad, who de-
mantled his money; when a scoflic ensued,
the tar took the robber,and bore away with
his prize to a peace ofiiccr at \Voolwich.—
Wliciitlieuiagistrate catiie to exatiiiiie into
the assault,lie told the Sailor he must take
his oath that the robber liatl not him in bodily
fear, otherwise he could not commit htiii.—
The sailor looking stedfastly at the Justice,
answered,—-“ He put tne in bodily fear ! tio,
nor any such piccaroon that ever lived ; so it
that's the case you may let him go, for shiver
ine titiibers iflswear to any such lie at all.”

Books.—We observe by a l-lartford paper,
that six or eight able bodied -men are wanted
to solicit su. bSCl"l]lll071.S‘ for books. It gave us
a cold sweat to l‘€'ri(l it——tliere must be sotne
intention of beating us into subscribing—can
not this county BUY on by giving them 7 or.
3800 to keep out tit our limits -? It would be
cheaper in the end. VVe can even now “iti
our mind’s eye” see them with a paper in one
liatid antl cudgel in the_ other, however, we
may as well be beaten to a nitiinmy, as teased

or scolded to death.—Barnstable Gaz.

Senaloriidl 'Dig7iily.—_——A letter from Wash-
ington of March 80, says-—

" Last Friday Mr. Randolph ea me itito the
Senate Cliainber with a red flannel hunting
shirt on his aim". He made a motion to ad-
'otirn, on account ofits beitig “ good Friday.”
While the ttiotioii was under consideration,
well, said he, “l will put on my shirt,” and
he did put it on atid wore it as long as he
contintietl in the Clianiber. His -,m,,chme.,;
to this gartnent proceeds, I suppose, from the
fact,to which he often alludes in his speeches,
that his father raised “ a hunting shirt corti-
pany,” at the cotritnenceiiietit of the revolti-
tioiiary war.”.

The Baltimore Patriot informs us that Mr.
Raiitltilpli lhtis cotiinieiiced one ofhis tirades
a fetv days since—“ Mr. Speaker.’ I beg par-
don, I mean Mr. President ofthe Senate, and
would be President of the United States,w]n'ch
God in his infiizitc mercy a-cert,”-—and then
went on in. his tisiial strain of caluniuy antl
abuse, which Mr. Callioun suffered without
once noticing the indecorutn to himself or
others. .
Letters from Bticharest,state that the pro

phecies of Argotliangelos, the first publication‘
ofwliicli appeared three centuries ago, and
which were reprinted at Bucharest in l8l'2,by
order ofRussia, announced that Constantino-
ple will be taketi in 1827. The death of all
the Emperors, doivii to Alexander, is exactly

Aitioiig the numerous misrepresentations
ptit forth to the world by the opponents Ofullt
present Chief Magistrate, one of the most
gross and palpable is, “that all or nearly all
his nominations and appointtiientsto 1!"P°"'
ant offices,” are “ frotii the federal ptii'ly.".——
Such is the language ofthe New_IIa]np3hire
Patriot. The Etlitor of that paper isreally
without excuse for. making an assertion S0
utterly unfounded. Whataietlie facts? The
following are all the “ 8PP0mlme"l5 m ml‘
portant offices” which have been made by Mr.
Adams, at present within otir recollection:

Mr. Clay, to be Secretary of State.

Mr. Rush, Sec’ry oftlie'I‘reasui'y.
Mr. Barbour, Secretary of War._
Mr: King, Minister to G. Britain.

Minister to Spain.

Minister to Mexico.

Minister to Panama.
Mr. Sergeant, Minister to Panatna.
Mr. Hughes, Charge to Netherlands.
Mr. Sonierville,- Charge to Sweden.
Mr. Williams, Cliargeto Guatemala:

- Of these eleven citizens, nine have been
long known to the public as firtii and decided
republicans. Mr. King has been called a fad-
eralist ; but he was Ci')lllllll§Slfille(.l by Wash-
inglo:-i, and again by Jrflasoit, ‘to negotiate
with the same governments to which he is now
sent by Mr. Adams. And, six years ago he
was appointed, by the republican State of N.
York, as one ofits Senators in Congress, and
pronounced a fellow labourer with the patriot
Tompkins, in redeeming the “ dearest inter-
ests” ofour country during the late war, and
worthy of “ the highest testimonials of repub-
lican confidence and respect.” l‘t'lr.Sergeatit
by whatever iiatiie he may be called, is, ‘on
all sides, adtnittetl to be a man of eminent a
bilfties, a iriost excellent citizen, and an lion
est patriot.

Such are the facts. But two out of the
eleven person's appointed b Mr. Adams to
it important offices” have ever been called
federalists ; and those two are men W-liom
their republican fellow citizens have delight-
ed to honor. Yet has the editor of the New
Hampshire Patriot stigmatised “ all or nearly
all” Mr. A’s iuiportaiit appointments as feder-
al! Let our fellow citizens ofN Hampshire
beware of such misreprcseiitations.

Wereiiietiiber to have seen, some weeks
ago, in a southern paper, a paragraph giving
a report that the President intended to remove
the present Secretary ofthe Navy, and to put
in his place, Mr. Sanford, of New York. The
paragraph went on to pronounce Mr.Sanford
a “ piofessetl federalist,” and then followed a
pathetic regret “to see Mr. Adams lean so
much to men of that stamp.” Here was fab-
rit.-ation upon fabrication. In -the first place,
the report of the President’s intention to re-
nio__ve the present Secretary was faliricated:
in the next place, Mr. Sanford, well known
as a firm and uniform republican, was, with
the satiie disregard-of truth,converted into " a
prefossed federalist ;” and lastly, as the cli-
tnax offabricatioii, was a whining Jereniiad,
that the Presidentsliould “ lean. so much to
men of that stamp !"

If misrepresetitation cotild render ati ad-
iniiiistration unpopular, we might have some-
thing to fear for the present one; btit as we
have the fullest confidence in the maxlmilllal
“ truth is great, an_d will prevalli” We filler‘
lain no doubt that the adtiiitiislrallon Will lfl~
timpli over the artifices ofits enemies.

nania lllission, delivered by Mr. Berrieti,
of Georgia, in the Senate of the Unitetl

States. The italics are all his own.

“ When we look to the situation ofthe isl-
ands ofCuba and Porto -Rico--—to ‘the com-
tiiatiding position wliich they occupy, with re-
ference to the commerce ofthe West Indies-—

'we cannot beindiffercnt to the change of

their cotiditiou. But when we reflect that
they are injurla position, lo a portion qflhis
Union, where slavery exists ; that the proposed
change is to be effected by a_ people, whose
fundamental maxim it is, that he who would
tolerate slavery is tioworthy to be free; that
the principle ofuniversal emancipation mttst
march in the van ofthe invading force; and
that all the horrors ofa servile war will too
surely follow in its train—tliese merely com-
mercialconsitlerations sink into insignificance;
they are swallowed up, in the magnitude of
the danger with which they are iiienaced.

“ Sir, under such circumstances, the ques-
tion to be determined is this: with a due re-
gard to the safety of the southern States, can
you sttflcr these Islands to pass 27110 the hands
of bztctmiers, drunk with their new born liberty.
“I repeat the question—Can you suflisr
this thing, consisieiitly with the‘ duty -which
yoti owe to Maryland, to Virginia, to Keri-
tucky, to Missouri, to Tennessee, to North
and South Carolina, to Georgia, to Alabama.
to Mississippi, to Louisiana, and to Florida ?
Nay, Sir. New England, sectirely asshe feels
on this subject, is not without interest in the

at this moment toiling in temporary exile, be-
rieatli the fervid sun of Cuba. Iftlie horrors

“ What then is our obvious policy ? Ctiba

To Europe, the President has distinctly said,
“ we cannot allow a transfer of Cuba to any
Ettropean power.” lVe must hold a language
equally decisive to the Spanish American

that Cuba should pass into the hands of Eng-

Haytien Republieerected there, we are free

shall require us to say to these new Repub-
lics— Cuba and Puerto Rico must remain as
they are, we are free to say it. Yes, Sir, alld
by the blessing ofGod, and the strength ofour
own arms, to enforce the declaration. And
let me say to gentlemen, these high consider-

the South demand it-‘and the United States

To the Spanish American States we must

LIQUID OPODELE 00.
THE article here enumerated must notba
conidered as adding one more number
to the already extensive catalogue of adverti-
sed Medicines; it is in fact an important im-
provement only, in,a well ktiown composition.

The Etiibrocation contains 3 of the most
valuable articles to be met with in the whole
circle ofMedicine, never before employed in
any other Opodeldoc, in addition to the other
ingredient usually made use of in the hard
kind, and will be found of3 titnesits strength
and effect. The money will be cheerfully re-
funded to those who, after having used one
brittle, may think differently. '

. The -Hon. Sam’! L. Mitciiell, M. D. LL D.
one of the first medical Professors in the state
of Neiv York, has given a certificate in its fa-
vour—sucli authority you will not dispute.

Certificates also from several respectable
citizens are annexed to the tlirections, who
have received the greatest benefit from the
‘Improved Liquid Opodeldoc,’ when they had
previously used the hard kind to no purpose.

This article‘ is asserted to be a sovereign
remedy in Bruises, Sprains, Gout, Rheuma-
tism, cramp, numbness, stiffness of the neck
or joints, slight burtis, “fresh wounds, chil-
hlaitis, 8Lc._

“ For the use of horses and cattle in these
cases, it may be considered as itiestimable."
“ As the whole faiiiily of mankind are lia-
ble to these casualties, no prudent person
should be without a bottle ofit in tln.-ir house."
It is prepared by J. P. Win'rwr-:LL, whose
name is impressed oti each bottle, without
which it'is not gentiitie.————N. B. In cases
of acute Gout and Rheumatism, a tea spt.-oti-
ftil on going to bed, taken inwardly, in a wine
glass of cold water, has in eonjtiiiction with
the external application ofit, performed sortie
most extraordinary cures.
