The synod of gods were Conven’d in their rijmis When Phoebus, arising|Xcgh|i the And thus he iNfur Jo\e:^W^a O, father, ns latekrthe coursers of day I leseendedP lie road in the west;’ , All faint I paused on.m'y way, To refreshment and rest. Looking down where the blue rolling ocean extends, Where once lay the region of night; Lo, full my view a large continent bends, Never seen by the beams of my light. From thence, mighty rivers and lakes I survey’d, The trees on their margin that grow; And mountains, projecting such grandeur of shade, The) frown on Olympus below. My course was so rapid, 1 caught but a glance, For had I restrain’d my career, My steeds would have check’d sister Dian’s advance, That season to mortals so dear. Then wing-footed 1 lermes the throne thus addressed: (), father, now listen to me, This Eagle 1 found while exploring the west, And now 1 present him to tiiee. Jove said, while the bird on his sceptre had sprung, How stalely, how noble his air! Now fain would 1 see if an Eagle so young In triumph niy thunder can bear. The Pird seiz’d the holt and resplendent he flew, While the gods all beheld in amaze, How calmly he sail’d through the regions of blue And bore in his talons the blaze. Mark, Neptune, cries .love, how he flashes along! k Now over thine empire he flies; ’ HFrom ocean is dash’d a refulgence so strong, The lustre ascends to the skies. * This bird, exclaims Jove, bears my thunder so w ell, ’ I'is a present I cannot decline; Henceforth let all know , on Olympus who dwell, That the bird of the west shall be mine. Then blue-ev’d Minerva accosted the throne, Thy justice shall mortals arraign! Thy sway is now seen in thy thunders alone, Andntan will, indignant, complain: Let justice and mercy thine attributes prove, And thus be their union express’d, Let the oliv e of Pallas and thunders of Jove Be borne by the bird of the west. YV it brim-flowing nectar, these words tliev approve, And this was the toast hey express'd, Hie olive of Pallas and thunder of Jove, And here’s to the bird of the west. A. intelligence. Livt.nrooi,, November 18. Bonaparte.—'Hie London papers of tlie w eek nave anncounced, that accounts have been received by gov ermnent, by the last arrivals from St. Helena, of a cor respondence ha\ ing been detected by sjr 11. Lowe, the object of which was the liberation of Bonaparte, and his escape to Kurope. Little beyond the fact, lias been sutrered to transpire; except that the correspon dence has been carried on with certain persons in dome, Paris and Munich; that is, we suppose, with Lucien Bo naparte, Lavalette, and some of Ins pricipal adherents and admirers in Paris. Whether a plot has, m reality, existed, or whether it has been only inferred from suspi cions circumstances, it is not possible for ns to judge before further particulars are made known; but there .is, certainly, in such a plot, nothing so improbable as to arrant us in am degree, to doubt the statement. The knlitary party in Prance, who, under the pretence of rtv, wish for their old leader to conduct them again and to plunder, comprehends many who, im of siieet HHHft’ *J • ■ .1 as :i oh ~l attend. 1 ’ :• sii -. j§|gJ§||B ‘ a “ ; ; ii'. ! ib. t ,/ i si and H||H 1 * ii e >‘:x li Hilo di, l.mido!’ <' l Motu. williout a re uark.l ‘•.! i l)\ order of s.r Hudson It owe, was arrested ■l Iron S-mgs in London on the 14th November, by a y Lowfrom the secretary of s'ate’s office, ‘i'lic gen- days previous, had been served with an or % quit the country, under the provisions of the ali ■l act, but not complying, officers wore sent to carry .tie warrant into execution, tiourgaud made consider *able resistance, in which the officers were severely in jure*!.] A London paper gives an extract of a letter from St. Helena, Sept.

A banking-house in London, and two mdividuas in England, with others on the con tinent, were reported to be concerned. It .s said to have been ascertained w here Napoleon had concealed the whole of his treasure, hinted to aniout to a million sterling. The Isabella and the Alexander discovery ships had returned to Lerw ick, the chief town on the Shetland islands, without the loss of a man. They had explored every part of Baffin’s bay, and ascertained that no pas sage” exists in that quarter between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
