Addressed to her tv/h understands them.
When first upon your tender cheek,
I saw the morn of beauty break,
With rpild and cheering beam,
I bow’d before your infant shrine;
The earliest sighs you had were.mine.
And you my darling theme
I saw you in that opcniitg morn,
For beauty’s boundless empire born,
And first confess’d your sway;
And c’re your thoughts, devoid of art,
Could learn the value of a heart,
1 gave my heart away.
I watch'd the dawn-of every grnce,
And gaz’d upon that angel, face,
While yet ’tvvas safe to gaze;
I fondly blcas’d each rising charm,
Nor thought such innocence could fcarnv
The peace of future days.
Pohfer.eis~ True politeness is modest,
unpretending, ami generous: its appear
ance is not striking; because a truly po
hteperson while acting courteously, would
endeavor to conceal it It engages a man
to esteem his neighbour, because he
thinks it manlier to descend a little than
degrade another. Lanater.
A Rebuts —A charade lately appeared in
the Evening Post of New-York, the solu
tion of which was nee*nan, an error or
mistake, and boss, a kiss or salute from
the lips; on reading the charade a lady
very P,rK>c»uJfy ohswwd, that of all the
words which terminated in buss, she pre
ferred a re-buss. Lit. Cab.
Few, says Swift, are qualified to shine in
company; but it is in most men’s power to
be agreeable. The'reason therefore why
conversation runs so slow at present, is
not the defect of Understanding, but pride,
vanity, ill nature, affectation, posiliveness,
or some other vice, the effect of a wrong
education.
Perfection of J‘unning.—\ celebrated
living author lately observed that he rarely
made a pun, “ but when 1 do,” said he,
“ I’ni very proud of it, for it is always the
worst that ever was made, and therefore
excellent. The other,day,” he continu
ed, “ a lady spoke to me about Mr. ’s
gallery of pictures, and remarked, that
she should very much like to get an in
troduction to see them—“ Well,” said I,
“he is my friend, and you shall go—vou
shall go, and pick his pocket.”—“ Pick
hU pocket!’’ she exclaimed, “ why should
Ido so?”—“ Why?” ,said 1, “ because he
has picl ut -ev.”
The London Times of April 14, states,
that Mrs. Garrick, relict of the late David
Garrick, esq visited Drury Lane Theatre
on Saturday night, to witness the perfor
mance of the “Broad, farcical Pan to mim
ical Drama, $ ahspea-e Versus ilurlrquiaf
which was written by her celebrated bus
band—She was handed from her carriage
to her box, by Mr, P.llislon—She is now in
the* 108th year of her igr.
Sports of the Field.
The prevailing mania for this amuse
ment is neatly hit off by the facetious
Goldsmith, ii; the following ludicrous des
cription of a Cart Race
“ Whether this contention between
three carts cfdifferent parishes was pro
moted by a subscription among the nobil
ity, or whether th* grand jury, in coun
cil assembled, had gloriously combined to
encourage plaustral merit, I cannot take
*-
upon me to determine; but certain it is. <
the whole was conducted with the utmost
regularity and decorum, arid the compa
ny, which made u .brilliant appearance,
were universally of opinion, that the sport
was high, the running fine, and the ri
ders influenced by no bribe. •
« jt was run on the road from London
to a village called Brentford, between a
a turnip cart, a dust cart, and a dung cart;
each of the owners condescending to ;
mount and be his own driver. The odds ;
it starting Were oust against dung, five to
our; but after half a miles going, the
knowing ones found themselves all on the ,
wrong side, and* it was turnip agfinst the
field, brass to silver.
“ Soon, however, the conttst became ,
more doubtful; turnip indeed kept the ;
way, 'but it was perceived that dung had j
the best bottom. The road re-echoed ■
with the shouts of the spectators; dung a- .
gainst turnip; turnip against dung, was
now tlie universal cry; neck and neck;
one rode lighter, but the other had mote (
judgment, 1 could not particularly ob- {
serve the nrdour with which the fair sex .
espoused the cause of the different riders ,
on this occasion; one was charmed with
the unwashed beauties of dung; another
was captivated with the patibiliary aspect
of turnip; while in the moan time unfor
tunate gloomy dust, who came whipping (
behind, was cheered by the encourage- |
ment of some, and pity of all.
“ The contention now continued for
some time, without a possibility of deter
mining to whom victory designed tlie •
prize. The winning post appeared in
view, and he who drove the turnip cart
assured hiiftselfol success; and successful ,i
he might have been, had his horse been
as ambitious as he; but upon approaching
a turn from tli« road, which Jed home- 1
wards, the horse fairly stood still, and re- i
fused to move a foot further. The dung
cart had scarcely time to enjoy this tern
porary triumph, when it was pitched head
long into a ditch by the way-side, and the ;
rider left to wallow ia congenial mud—
Dust in the meantime soon came up, and
not being far from the post, came in a
midst the shouts and acclamations of all
•he spectators, and greatly caressed by all
tire quality of Brentford. Fortune was
kind only lo one, who ought t o have been
favourable to all; each had peculiar mer
it, each laboured bird to earn the prize, J
and each, richly deserved the cart he
drove.”
I was filling in Uie country last Satur- ,
day, and heard an angry mother bawl out ,
to her son—“ Sam ! Sam ! what are you
doing there?” To which the boy, in the
whining tone of one who was afraid of a
flogging, answered—“JVWAi/ig.”
1 w as soon out of hearing, but asked my
self what are half the sons of men doing
towards bettering their own condition or
that of others f In the language of Sam,

Saturday Morning, June 10, y IPSO/
The Messenger appcintedby the consti
tutional government of Spain, has arrived
at Washington City. His eaily arrival
looks like doing business, ami augurs
well. We may shortly expect something
definitive on the subject of our relations
with that country. From the just and i
temperale policy w.hicli has marked the 1
career of the Cortes, we are impelled to
the belief, that the unsettled state of at- i
fairs, which has so long existed between
the two governments, will be promptly,
amicabh, and honorably adjusted. 1

By the descii* don given in the follow

vessel described by the writer, is the
same, that commuted the robbery on the
ship Jane, captain Drummond, lately arri
ved at this port. Captain D. says the
description answers exactly'. We under
stand every exertion will be made to
bring to punishment these out-casts of so

Copy of a letter from a gentleman in
Charleston to bis friend in Savannah,
dated Ist June, 1820.
“Seeing that the ship Jane, capt. Drum
mond, arrived in Savannah, has been vis
ited by. pirates; I should deem myself re
prehensible, were I not tp mention cir
cumstances which have accidentally come
wiiliin my own observations yv.ddi leads
me to think that I could poiiij out the pi
rate, from the description of the ship as no
ticed in the Savannah papers, v
“Some time in March last, a ship put
into this port from Havana, on ker way’ to
the Coast of Africa. The ship was called
the Prudencia, alias Josefna or Josefna; was
prooably from 290 to 300 tons, pierced
for 14 guns, light yellow or white waist,
with a woman’s head painted black, had
two boats hoisted up at her quarters, one
of which she bought in this place. •
“She was commanded by a Spaniard,
born in Austurias, Spain, about 39 or 40
years of age; he is a short man with large
black whiskers: he had a boy (a son of the
captain) about 12 or 14 years of age, who
staid in toe cabin with him.
“The ship belongs in Havana, and is
bound to the Coast of Africa, and intends
trading for slaves between the Ist and 9th
degree of South latitude—and will pro
bably shortly be back, to Havana, as they
are seldom long on the Coast.
“N. B. The captains name is Rcsmon
Marco Prnueda, born as before observed
in Spain, but nowan inhabitant of Cuba.”

A letter from a gentleman in Savannah,
to the Editors, dated on the 24th ultimo,
says-r-“Tliere is considerable animosity
prevailing here between the U. Slates’
Bank and the State Banks. The Bank of
the U. States has demanded specie of the
Planters’Bank, and Las been refused. The
consequence is the notes of the latter
ha\e been protested. The same has hap
pened with the State Rank. The United

A number of counterfeits, of one hj

We have repeatedly heard it assert!

to follow their sovereigns to the field,!
til they had extorted from them aM
promise, that in return for their toils,it j
sacrifices and their blood, they rifl
grant them a new constitution of yu®

The time was, and that a period not ®
remote; when the subjects of Austti®
Prussia, of Saxony, Sic would net tnl
dreamt of a representative form of®
vernment; -much less would '.hey bfl
had the boldness to demand it of M
despotic sovereigns. The time also ®
when such a demand, instead of 1®
patienily listened to, would have pin!
ed for those who should have the hi®
hood to make it, the bow string orfl
rack. But priming has since dawned!
on the world; light and information V
been widely diffused; the rights of
begin to be understood; the thron®
despots totter beneadi them, and w®
ventually fail, to rise no more.—The®
revolution in Spain;, the presented*®
ten’s to France, the restlessness «®
many ; the call f«r a constitutional
of government in Italy and Prussin®
the wish of Portugal to annex hers*
Spain under her present represent*®
government; all prove beyond a “'®
of doubt, that the people are deep)®
pressed with a sense of the
action, are determined to compel thd®

made, in return for their servic'-.*
in the field. The “times," at present®
