From At uric A. Waft's Poetical Album. THE THREE TABERNACLES. {Written iu the Church yard of Richmond, En gland.) B¥ UF.KBi.KT KN'OWI.ES. ‘Mf thinks it is good to he here; If thou wilt, let us make three Tabernacles : one for thee, one Tor Moses undone tor Elias.” Met funks it is good to be liere:— If (how wilt, let us build ; but for whom? Nor Elias, nor Moses, appear:— But the ihodows of eve, that encompass witl> gloom The abodes of the dead, and the place of the tomb. Shall be built to Ambition? Ah, no? Affrighted, shrinketh away For sec! they would pits him below In a dark, uai row cave, and begii t with cold clay To the meanest of reptiles a peer and a prey. TJuto Beauty? Ah no!—sl.e forgets The charm, that she wielded before— Nor knows the foul worm that he frets The skin, that hut yesterday, fools could adore For the smoothness it held, or the tints which it wore. Shall we build to the purple of Pride? To the trappings, thatdizen the Proud? Alas! They all are laid aside? I'or here’s neither wealth nor adornment allow’d, £ave the long winding sheet, and the fringe of the shroud. Unto Riches? Alas ti§ in vain— Who here in their turns have been hid, Their wealth is all cquander'd again— And here in the grave, are all metals forbid, Save the tinsel that shines on the dark coffin-lid. To the pleasures that Mirth can afford, The revel, the laugh, andthejeor? Ah', here is a plentiful Board! But the guests are ttll mute at their pitiful cheer, Aud none but the Worm is a reveller here 1 Stall we build to Affection and Loie / Ah no! They have wither’d and died, Or tied, with the spirit, above! Friends, brothers aud sisters, arc laid side by tide— Tot □one have saluted, and none have replied ! Uuto Sorrow?—The deud cannot grieve; Not a sob, not a sigh meets mine ear, V\ hick compassion itself could relieve— Ah! sweetly slumber, nor love, nor hope nor fear, Peace, peace is the w atchword—the only one here! Uuto Death?— to w hom Monarchs must bow? Ah no! for his Empire is kuowu, And here, there aie trophies enow; Beneath the cold head, anti around the dark stone, And the sighs of a sceptre that none may disown. The first Tabernacle to llopc we will build, And look for the sleepers aiound us to rise— The second to Faith, which insures it ful filled— And the third to the Lamb of the Great Sacrifice. Who bequeath’d us them both when he rose to the skies! Defer ed • Articles . At Mobile on the 7th inst thirty-one bales of fraudulently packed or plated cotton were de tected It had been sold by the samples drawn from the edges of the bales, some of which was beautiful cotton, but on a clo.sei examination, the inside of the bales was discovered to be infe rior, wet aud rotten The person who sold it %-as held to bale in the sum of SSOO to answer for the offence. The Chamber of Commerce have determined to publish in the public papers all the names and marks which may appear’ on any cotton so packed: and also, to publish the name of the planter and giuner, aud the place of their residence. The Mobile Register says—“ The business of pUning Cotton has been curried this season to an unprecedented and alarming extent. An indi vidual broker has detected seven separate lots since the commencement of the winter. And while the examinations of the case under con sideration were pending, another falsely pack ed lot, of 27 bales, from Montgomery was de fected while in the very act of being shipped.’* VICTORY IN NEW HAMPSHIRE.

ETThe Georgia Journal will insert the above four times and forward its account to the News Vffcc for payment. ttHJfl aXOJBiL Francis Preston Blair continues to publish, iu Washington City, a Newspaper entitled the Globe, which has now been established about three months. Its present subscription, which is rapid ly increasing, insures its permanent existence. It will be devoted, as it has hitherto bet'n, to the discussion and maintenance of the principles “which brought Gen. Jackson intooflice;” which have been asserted in his several Messages to Congress, and sustained by the course of his ad ministration. Asa means of giving permanent j effect to those principles, the Globe will continue to advocate the election of the President for a se ond term. His nomination for re-eicction by the Republicans of many States, and other manifes tations throughout the Union, leave no doubt ol the desire ol the people, that he shall follow in the footsteps of Washington and Jefferson by serving iu the Chief Magistracy eight years* The Globe will not support or countenance any intrigues-or cabals, having reference to the suc cessor of Gen. Jackson. On the contrary, it will denounce aud expose all men and their acts, who may seek, by selfish intrigues, with a view’ to fu ture aggrandizement; to embarrass the adminis tration, defeat the efforts ol the President to pro mote the public good, and sow discord and dis sension iu the Republican Party. It will hold no alliance with those who cannot postpone thru personal pretensions to the interests of their country. I he interest of the American public is necessa rily great in the political affairs of Europe at this eventful crisis. Arrangements will be complet ed, as curly as possible, to secure for the Globe t he means of giving she earliest mforiffution from that continent. It is intended, also, to give the Globe t\ literary and miscellaneous character. Selections from periodicals of the highest reputation will adorn its ccluutns, to gratify the geneial reader ; while, ns a vehicle of information in lclation to manu factures, agriculture, commerce, and the arts, it w ill ho made subservient to the useiul pursuits of the country. An ardent desire iias been expressed to us by the friends of the President, that the Globe shall be made at once a daily paper; Their wishes shall be promptly hiet, if they give us promise of support. Let ;uem back their wishes with actual ! ‘irons In obtaining subscribers, anti the Globe shall be a daily paper in one month. With that view the Editor offers this paper o the public. Arrangements will be made to give a correct report ol the proceedings of Congress, at the next session. TE&VIS l he Globe will he printed OH a large imperial sheet. The price of the Daily paper will be Ten Dollars per annum; for shorter periods it w ill be One Dollar per month The price of the Semi weekly paper, will he Five Dollars per annum; Three Dollars for sis months; and Two Dollars for-tlnee months. The price of the tVcelch/ paper will be Two Dollars anil fills, cents. All sub scriptiona must be paid m advance. DAILY GLOBE; Many friends oflhe administration have recent b’ expressed to us a strong desire, that the Globe shall become a Daily Paper. To that, we arc •‘nothing loth,” it it can he effected without posi tive pecuniary loss It is certainly the more im poriimt, since the defection of the Telegraph; for there .lie now throe daily papers, and several weekly in (lie District, pouring direct attacks on the administration, or attempting to uuderruiue its foundation. As promptly as the necessary .support shall be promised, our sheet shall appear daily. We, therefore, request all gentlemen In this cltv, orele where, whonre disposed to favor this undertaking, to send their names forthwith to this office. ” CIRCULAR.
