We pay a tribute justly due— For worth departed, acorce the tear Is dry which fell upon ms bior, Who erst Was wont our hearts to cheer, ■ Was pleased our conduct to commend, And bade Os bail him as a Friend. TALBOT, farewell! Tbe breath of Fame Which tells the world a Hero’s name, Is but a momentary glow— A meteor flash—a transient'throe, Which shoots across the aching breast, And leaves the flpirit to her rest. But wben.the ruthless hand of Death, Relentless tyrant! claims the breath Of those wc love, be leaves a wound For which a balm can scarce be found- A people’s love bangs o’er thine urn, And there doth.sacred Friendship mourn i And purer tears did never flow, To consecrate the hour of wo. Then rest, lov'd shade ! tby funeral knell ' Re-echoes still a fond farewell-! SPEED 1 Gaffer Time—speed on thy way*— Tliou’st brought another New Year's Day: And, to thy credit be it said* With few distresses on thy head. True, thou hast harp'd on themes of war; But, like tho storrti which roHs afar, They only murmured on tho ear, Just but to flash—then disappear? Aud sure the Minstrel thinks lhat no(V There’s no “ foul murders” on thy brovV, To make an Empire play the fool, And “push" a Monafcli from his "stool.” But what to us are Kings and Thrones ?— Tho Land where rest our fathers' bonus, Where sleep the many nameless brave, Whose blood has tinged the shore or Wave— Is to Remembrance doubly dear, When Time brings round tho circling year. Shades of THe Brave? whom time nor place Can nevor from the heart erase— O ! if from realms of purest light) In holy lustre beaming bright, You view tho Land your vrdor saved-. And mark the boon your oilspring craved, Suro in your own, your native heaven, A greater joy can scarce be givem Of Heroes who have foOght and died— A nation's love—a nation's pride. The Muse might tell—but O ! the test Which falls upon the Hero’s bier, Must e'er in solemn silence flow, For sacrod aro the tears of wo ! Farewell! a last farewell) yo Brave, Whose “spangled banner" o’er the wave, Told to the foe your Country’s Name, And wedded to iter pwn you# fame; But truce to such a serious strains And though no measure "light and vain," On this blest diy the pen employ, Tiro Poet can but wish you joy. And joy for what ? why) joy that still We’re governed by the peoplb’b wlt'L! Joy, that no base, tyrannic kuave, Has dared our country,, to enslave: •Joy, that our rights aro still secure, Tho blessings of the rich and poor. And O 1 forevor may the zeal Which guards our muchloved country's weal, The boon our glorious Fathers won, Still fervent pass from sire to son! I might descant on foreign themes— On politicians’ idle dreams— Or speak of Euicpo's Kings and Courts— Of Turkey’s Despot’s savage hordes— But these to other pens I’ll loave, To praise or censure as they crave. To scenes of fairer hopes 111 turn, Where dawning light proclaims the morn; And Freedom’s Sun, ascending bright, Dispels the shades of dreary night. At length) O GreecR, thy brighter star Has risen o'er thy land afar '; That land, by tyrants long o’errun, Now hails tho dawn of Freedom’s Sun— Where—like Vesuvius’ fiery stream, , Which oft at midnight hour doth gleam— Was seen to rush the march of mind/ And leave a flood of light behihd. And bow behold, in Southern Skies, Tho brilliant Orb of Freedom rise-* An emanation from the North, Its glories beam profusely forth. , Already breaks the glowing dawn, The promise of a splendid morn; And yet a far more splendid day, When tyrant power shall lose its sway, And that bright Sun shall beam on all, Whom Slavery’s galling chains enthral, « ■ Our common Country claims our verse-** Aud shall wo not those claims rehearse? Yes I—she but asks of every son, Whoso noble sire hud Freedom won, Who freely shed his noblest blood, And like the dauntless Spartan stood, Still to. be true to that blest cause Which gave them Liberty and Laws. Patrons ! my song is almost o’er*— N . Perhaps I should have said befofe,^ (To give what painters eaU relief,) A word about our HERO CHIEF; For first in patriotic grace, In the fore ground that Chief we place; And ask you why we place him there, The Nation's voice will loud declare: “He baved hi* Coumifr—let her praise Like sunbeams gild his Utter days. And shed a Splendid glory o’er Hi* loved, his dear^-his Ratal shore. Another word beforo we part— A wish is clinging round my heart, For faVored Georgia—Dear loved home, With parting word to then I come! Amid the storms ef party strife, Whon Faction’s deadly spirit’s "rife (J ^ Or when those storms may. die aWay, And peace-beams gild again the lay, That Home with rapture still I’ll hail, . And hope 'Good Feelings may prevail. GLEANINGS FROM HISTORY. From the Boston Patriot. All the Jews in Spain wero expelled that Kingdom by Ferdinand in 1492, on the absurd ground, that they kept in their hands the com merce of the country; and Spain thus lost aboYe, 150,000 of her most industrious inhabitants. - The exiles spread themselves over the other Kingdoms of Europe, and were often the vi<>* tims of a persecution equally inhuman. It was tho settled policy of the English sove reigns in the fifteenth centtsrgto havO a se cret faction in their pay in Scotland, for the purposo cf dividing and thus enslaving the na tion; and to this source the disorders of that Kingdom were attributed. « The first restorers of learning in Europe Were tho Arabians, who in the coarse of their Asiatic conquests, became acquainted with somo of the Greek authors, procured copies of'. 1 the ancient manusyipts, and had them care fully translated into^Arabic. The western Kingdoms 'of Europe bpcanie first acquainted with the learning of tbe ancients through the medium of these translations.—Tho Arabians disseminate their knowledge in' the. course of. their conquests, and founded schools and colle ges in all tho' countries jjiey subdued. The boldest naval enterprise of the ancients was the periplus of Hanno, who sailed frorft Carthage to the coast of Guinea, within four or fivo degrees of tho equator, in 570. They did not know that Africa was almost circuin navigable. Columbus went to soa at the ago of fourteen; —After a variety of ^kentures servinWo .‘en large his knowledge more than to increase his fortune, ho went to Lisbon. Hero, haying married tho daughter of Perestrello, a Portu guese navigator of much celebrity, his favorite \ passion of making discoveries was rendered more irresitible by reading the journals of his father in law, which had fallen into bis hands. Columbus was of opinion that by sailing di* rectly to tho west, new countries, which it was likely formed a part of the great eftntinoni of Asia, must be discovered. His opinion was strengthened by the discovery, after a long couYse of westerly .wind, of pieces of carved wood, treo3, and canes, and d6ad bodies, thd natives of another clime, driven on the shore* of the Madeira isles and the Azores. . * That part of America which was,first disk covered by Cdlilmbus, was supposed from a similarity of productions, to be a part of those .. vast regions of Asia, comprehended under the. 1 ' general nanio of India, which name Was given to it by Ferdinand and Isabella. After the error was detCctti!, the name of West Indies wns continued. Vusco de Gama, employed by tho king of Portugal, first doubled the Cupe of Gpod Hope in Nov. 1497, which opened a passage to the East Indies, Twenty/three years after tho first discover ry of America by Columbus, Magellan, a na-. live of Portugal, in the service’ofSpain, pone- trated into the Pacific Ocean*, by the strait which bears his name. He advanced through tho south seas to the Ladrbne islands, of which ho took possession in the name of Charles V. He was noro slain in 1520, either by tho na tives, or as some accounts say, by his own re* bcllious crew. I , Newfoundland was discovered 24th June, 1497, by the Cabots, who Wero commissioned to sail in quest of new countries by Henry VIII: In the year 1576-7-8 the coast of Labrador^ was explored by Martin Frobisher, under tho auspices of Elizabeth of England. About th£ same time Sir Francis Drake accomplished his celebrated voyage around the world. Sir Walter Raleigh fitted out an expedition of two small vessels, in 1584, which reached the toast of North. Carolina oil the 4th July; A favonjblo_ report of tho ’country, to which hd _ gave tho name of Virginia, led to two succeed ing expeditions and attempts at settlement, io 1585, and 86, both of Which failed; therein* nant of the first returned to Engtandythe cithers perished by famine aud at the hands,of the ua* tive.<.
