NORFOLK RACES.
Vome Madam Muse, new nib thy pen,
And put on thy best graces;
To sing, in merry jocund 3train
Tbe joys of Epsom Races.
Cabinet of Momus.
The sun doth dazzling lustre shed.
Delightful is the morning,
'The intervening hours have fled,
And striking clock gives warning.
»Tis time for those to leave the town,
Who wish to see the Races;
Merchants must lay their yardsticks down,
Tie up their tape and laces {
Doctors their patients leave behind, ,
Alone with death to wrestle;
'Those who sell drugs of cv’rv kind,
Quit for a time the pestle.
Booksellers leave their fancy stores,
And cease awhile to wheedle,
Leaving their clerks to keep their door9.
And pretty things to tweodle;
.Editors lay aside the pen,
And give their brains some leisure,
For they above all other men
Deserve a share of pleasure;
Hucksters desert their fruit and cake,
A thing to them distressing,
For Sultan and Pugh their profits take,
Who now are dinner dressing;
Last, though not least, the Lawyers too,
Must lay aside all pleading,
And act as other people do,
Prefer rare sport to reading
In fact, all classes, black and white,
Must leave their occupations,
If they in races take delight,
And love such recreations.
Let tober folks, who do not care
A cent for horse and bridle,
Feel not disposed the fun to share—
Remain—employed or idle.
We chose to join the walking throng,
Already in quick motion,
The distance is not very long,
And walking-suits our notion.
We soon found friends among the crowd,
Whose tongues, it seemed, were racing,
They jan so fast and spoke so loud,
A thousand themes embracing.
Thus passing time we reach’d the course.
And entered, ninepence paying;
A toll established there perforce,
The Club’s expence defraying.
Delight then seized upon our mind,
To see the merry faces
Of all around to mirth inclin’d,
Excited by the Races.
The tall and lovfr, the lean and fat
Mov’d lovhigiy together ;
Stranger with stranger joined in chat
About the track and weather.
The gentleman of high degree,-
Who notic’d not bis neighbor,
Because oppress’d with poverty,
He liv’d by daily labor,
Would now his dignity nnhend,
With features kind and smiling.
And friendly nods to all extend,
Pleasure his pride beguiling.
Within the track were many gigs;
Coaches and other vehicles,
In some of which were cakes and figs,
And Ladies with fine reticles.
The hum of voices buzz’d around ;
Horses were loudly snorting,
Negroes and Bucks were alsc found,
The latest fashions sporting.
In Sutton’s tent an epicure
Might suit his tickle palate ;
Liquors had he, which we are sure
Would please a toper’s gullet.
And let us not forget friend Pugh,
Of whiskey punch a mixer,
Which we’re inclin’d to think the true
Preserving life elixir.
His booth refreshments fine contain,
And when the Club is dining,
We need not hunger long in vain,
He’ll find our stomachs lining.
But now the horn blows loud ancj strong,
Th’ intended vace announcing.
The grooms have buckled ev’ry thong—
—The boys un saddle bouncing—
Gr’at Ivanhoe brooks all delay,
The bit he’s proudly champing ;
Bob Craddock too, in fine array,
Impatiently is stamping.
Virginia Brown with comely mien,
Is also gaily prancing,
And at the variegated scene,
With sparkling eyes, is glancing.
The judges all are in their stauds,
The riders in their places—
’Twas worth whatever gold commands
To see their anxious faces
The horses reached the starting spot,
We list as to some inkling—
When, “ go,”- aloud cries A********
They shoot off in a twinkling.
Tbeu shouts and plaudits fill the air,
Each breast with pleasure glowing;
Horses and riders wing'd appear,
So swiftly they were going.
•Before the rest was Ivanhoe,
Most beautifully moving,
Whilst those behind did plainly siiow,
Their speed could bear this proving.
Dowu down the quarter stretch they fly,
The goal-their sights uow meeting—
Jluzza for Harrison’s the cry—
Ami Ivanhoe has beaten.
We now bad time some fruit to eat,
And drink a glass of toddy,
Which sheds a fine reviving’heat,
Throughout a person’s body.
yVe went among the crowd to hear
Each witty observation,
And guess from what might reach our ear,
The next heat’s termination.
The knowing ones look’d very wise,
And so did the unknowing,
For both alike look’d with their eyes,
As all of us were doing.
But no instruction could we get,
And lost all hope of finding
How with security to bet;—
The hom began its winding
The horses gallantly came up,
The tighten'd curb despising,
For each had quaff’d the usual sup,
Which to the heads was rising.
Prompt at the word away they go,
The wind itself outstripping,
But cruel man, their friend and foe,
Spar’d neither spur nor whipping.
Tiiis.heat was taken as before,
And so the race was ended,
On which; we’ve said a great deal more.
Than we at first intended.
We did not stay upon the course
To witness some scrub races,
Although Jhev constitute the source
Of mirth, in many cases;
Bnt pleas’d with what we saw to-day,
We’ll wait until to-morrow.
And then another visit pay,
If we can ninepence borrow.

THE TRIBUTE TO LOVE.
Now breathe thy sweetest lay my Lyre,
Now giuh thy softest strain.
Rekindle tbv ions- smothered fire,
And sing of Love again.
Awake, awake each trembling string,
Aronsc each chord divine,
To love, thy sweetest tribute bring,
And lav them at her shrine.
And thou mv heart so long oppressed
With griefs sad dark’ning ray
Breathe now the transports of a breast,
Delighted at Love’s lav !
And thou wan care, no more shalt move
This breast, so long, hey prey,
I’ll touch the chords most dear to love,
.’Twill drive those griefs away.
I’ll wreathe a crown for thee my Lyre,
As sweet as ere thou art.
'Twill breathe that soft, yet pure desire,
That plays around my heart.
Then round thy brow shall roses twine,
And myrtle from the grove,
But strike the chord that’s most divine.
And it will whisper Love!
Ask what is love t it is a feeling
To every soul most dear;
Around the hrart it oft is"stealing,
And dwells forever there f
And when we love with that pure flame,
Which is to Angels given,
It merits not an earthly name,
F or lis a naim from Tleaven t
And though-the e ve he dim with tears,
And moist the rosy check;
But call to mind love’s sweetest airs
’Tis then the heart will speak,
Though sorrow round the soul may move,
And dim the heart with pain ;
But strike those chords that whisper Love,
’Twill all be sweet again!
HORTENSIO.
From Scenes in South Africa.
A Lion Hunt.—“ VVe mustered by day
light; and as we wpre anxious, for the
sake of ihe novelty, to have somt of the
Tambookies to accompany us, we prom
ised to kill them plenty of bucks, and
were not long in persuading thirty cf them
to follow us. In a short time we observ
ed them leading out of the cattle kraaf
two milk oxen, with their horns bound
round with thongs which, to all appear
ance, one might fancy were intended for
sacrifice, but on closer inspection we found
they were their pack oxen, prepared to
carry home such as we might kill for them.
We made a singular apnearance as we
cantered along. Each Tambookie had a
half-starved dog ; some of the best run
ners would keep close to us, but on occa-
sionallydooking back, the plain seemed
covered with horsemen—whites and Hot
tentots, blacks and dogs.
“ Our party was formed into two di
visions, Mr. S. Mr. R. and ourselves were
to cross the plain about the centre, Die-
derick was our leader. The other party
were to skirt the base of the mountain,
abou* which grew a few tall mimosas, and
to keep in an even line with us, about half
a utile distant.
“ The monntain seemed to meet just
before ps, but, as we approached, we saw
a pretty wide opening, through which we
passed, when another Valiev or plain, of
similar character, but of much greater ex
tent, was presented to our view. Here
all animated nature seemed collected, and
to reign unmolested! The .signal was,
however, soon given—that man, the des
troyer, was approaching, and all the vari
ous animals, with snorts and bounds, be
gan to collect in bodies—gnoos, harte-
beasts, quaggas, spring bucks, and roe
bucks. Thegnoo is the animal so well
described by Barrow,, the existence of
which was but a very lew years ago dis
puted. They run sluggishly at first, bnt
at once they spring out, whisk their long
tails about, and, with their heads to the
ground, defy their pursuers. Their dus
ky colour and bushy heads give them a
strange appearance.
“ Mr. S. had chased so.me of these ani
mals in the direction of the mimosas, tren
ching on the ground which our comrades
were to take; be was getting closer to his
object, and was about to dismount a se
cond time, when his eyes glanced on the
long-wished-for game-lan enormous Lion!
He was walking majestically slow; but
when Mr. S. gave the tally-ho to us , he
couched, and seemed inclined to wait, but
soon afterwart&cantered off to the mi
mosas. . -%
J “ In a few seconds we were all up—at
least, our division. The first object was
to prevent him from climbing the moun
tain ; we therefore rode .through the rnr*
mosas, about three hundred yards from
where he had entered, and got between
him and the heights. Diedrick Muller
and Mr. S. with their servants and lead
horses, then rode round the little grove,
whilst we were stationed where we first
entered. The grove was hardly five hun
dred yards in length and twenty in breadth;
consequently, we could b.y this arrange
ment command the whole of it.
“ True to our engagement, as well as
heartily wishing their assistance, we wait
ed for the other party. The other part of
our division having rode round the grove,
came up opposite to us, but at a distance, j
and as we saw them dismount, we did the j Have just received a fresh supply of the celeora.ed

same. Our situation was not very envia
ble ; we had but one large gun; but Mr.
Rennie, who carried it, was perfectly col
lected. We were talking to each other in
a whisper, when Mr. Rennie very coolly
said, “ listen, the gentleman is grumbling.”
The sound was so very like distant thun
der, that we doubted if; but at the same
moment I caught a glimpse of the lion
walking away, not a hundred and fifty
yards from ns, and he must have been pre
viously still nearer to us than we had.cal
culated. I gave the alarm, which was
echoed to our friend, who in an instant
mounted and rode up to the lower end,
calling upon us to advance. We were mo
ving down to gain a position on a little
height, when a gun was fired, followed by
four more. This convinced us our other
division had joined.
” We thought there would have been
an end to our sport before it had well be
gun; but on the contrary, the shots were
fired not only to prevent him leaving the
copse, but to prove their guns, for a miss-
fire is frequently of consequence. The
last shot had the effect of turning him, &
we now had a full view of him returning
to the centre, whisking his tail about, and
treading among the smaller bushes as if
they had been grass, reminding us most
forcibly of the paintings we had seen of
this majestic animal.
“ We had hardly began to tie our hor
ses, when the Hottentots stationed on the
hill cried out that the lion was running off
at the lower end, where he had attempted
to escape before. We were on horseback
in a second, but the lion had got ohead ;
we had him, however, in full view, as
there was nothing to intercept it. Off he
scampered. The Tambookies, who had
just come up and mixed amongst us, could
scarcely clear themselves of our horses ;
and their doga howling and barking—we
hallooing—the lion still in view, making
fur a small copse, about a mile distant—
and the manner and variety of the ante
lopes on our left, scouring off in different
directions, formed one of the most anima
ting spectacles the annals of sporting could
produce.
“ Diedrick and Mr. S. being on very
spirited horses, were the foremost, and
we wondered to see them pass on in a di
rection different from the copse where we
had seen the lion take covert. Christian
gave us the signal to dismount, when we
were, as well as could be judged, about
200 yards from the copse. He desired
us to be quick in tying the horses, which
was done as fast as they each came up.—
And now the die was cast, there was no
retreating. We were on lower ground
than the lion, with not a bush around us.
Diedrick and Mr. S. had now turned their
horses, for, as we afterwards learned, they
had been run off with in consequence of
their bridles having broken. The plan
was, to advance in a body, leaving our
horses with the Hottentois, who were to
keep their backs toward the lion, fearing
they should become unruly at the sight of
him.
“ All these preparations occupied but a
few seconds, and were not completed—
when we heard him gimwl, and imagined
he was making off again; but no—as if to
retrieve his character from suspicion’of
cowardice from former flight, he had made
up his mind in turn to attack us. To the
growl, succeeded a roar, and in the same
instant we saw him bearing down upon us,
Ills eye balls glistening with rage. We
were unprepared; his motion was so ra
pid, no one could take aim, and he furi
ously darted at one of our horses, whilst
we were at their heads, without a possi
bility of thejr preventing it. The poor
horse sprung’for ward, and, with the force
of the action, wheeled all the horses round
with him. The lion likewise wheeled,
but immediately couched at less than ten
yards from us. Our left flank thus be
came exposed, and on it fortunately stood
C. Muller and Mr Rennie. What an
anxious moment! Fora few seconds we
saw the monster at this little distance, re
solving, as it were, on whom he should
first spring. Never did I long so ardent
ly to hear the report of a gun. We look
ed at them aiming, and then at the lion.
It was absolutely necessary to give a mor
tal blow or the consequences might be fa
tal to some one of the party. A second
seemed.a minute. At length Christian
fired ; the under jaw of the lion dropped
—blood gushed from iiis mouth, and he
turned round with a view to escape. Mr.
Rennie then shot him through the_ spine
—and he fell.
“ At this moment he looked grand be
yond expression. Turning again towards
us, he rose upon his fore-feet—his mouth
bleeding, his eyes flashing vengeance.—
He attempted to spring at us, but his hind
legs denied him assistance; he dragged
them a little space, when Stepbanus put a
final period to his existence, by shooting
him through the brain. He was a noble
animal—measuring nearly twelve feet
from the nose to t'qp tip of the tail.
“ Thus ended a scene which I have in
vain endeavored to describe, qqd which I
never can forget.”

T HIS Medicine has acquired a very extend
ed and established celebrity both in Hos
pital and Private practice, which its efficacy alone
lias supported for these seven years past.
As a spring or fall purifier it has given new
constitutions to thousands, it is by its operation
on the Blood that such surprising cures have been
performed in numerous diseases.
The effect of this medicine is such as not to in
terrupt either business or pleasure, and requires
only the common restraint of moderation in diet.
It is conveyed by the circulating fluids, and cor
rects theirtender.cies to all those diseases which
originate in vitiated blood, diseased liver, or de
praved appetite. It is a safe medicine, and re
moves all those evils which an unsuccessful use
of mercury so often occasions. No one, how
ever is advised to take’ it, without first fully con
vincing himself of the truth of what is here stated
and the rectitude of the Proprietor’s intentions.

BOOKS,
This Medicine has the singular fortune, a just
tribute to its great merit, of being recommended
by the most celebrated Practitioners of Medicine
in the United States and elsewhere, whereas not
one of the spurious mixtures made in imitation
of it, is supported by the Faculty. This fact of
fers an argument so plain and conclusive, that it
needs only to be mentioned to enforce convic
tion.
From Dr. Wm. Price, formerly Surgeon of the
Pennsylvania Hospital, he.
Liverpool, (eng.) Sept. 1823.
The Vegetable Syrup, called Swaira’s Pana
cea, prepared by Mr. Swaim, of Philadelphia,
has recently been introduced here by Dr. Price,
fr?m the United States of America, where it is
now extensively used in the treatment of a varie
ty af Chronic Diseases.
Of the efficacy of this preparation Dr- Price
has had abundant and most satisfactory evidence,
during a course of experiments made under his
direction, whilst Surgeon of the Pennsylvania
Hospital; and since his arrival in England, he
has had the good fortune of witnessing many ad
ditional instances of its successful administration.
The diseases in which this Medicine has been
paiticularly useful, are those arising from con
stitutional causes—as in the various forms of
Scrofula, whether affecting the bones, joints, or
soft parts; and in cases, where a disposition to
this disease is manifested by debility only, it
operates as a preventive to the local disease by
its beneficial effects on the constitution. It is
equally efficacious in mercurial disease, and in
the secondary forms of Sypilisj and has lately
been gi"en with marked success in chronic dis
eases of the Liver, which had resisted the careful
exhibition of mercury. It lias, likewise, very re
cently been administered with decided advant
age by one of the most distinguished Surgeons in
London, in a case which had entirely destroyed
the right eye of the patient, and a great portion
of the side of the face. WM. PRICE, M. D.
