With deep devotion’s deepest sigh,
And love her incense burning-

My mother’s voire ! how often cigeps
Its cadence on my lonely hours !
Like healing sent on wings of ijleep,
Or dew to the unconscious flowers.
I can forget her melting prayer,
While leaping pulses madly l;y ;
But in the stii! unbroken air,
Her gentle tones comes • teating' by,
And years, and sin and manhood flee.
And leave me at my mother’s knee.
The Book of nature, and the print
Of beauty on the w liispCi iag sea,
Give aye to me some lineemeut
Of what I have oeen taught to he.
My heart is harder, and perhaps
My Manliness has drunk up tears,
And there's a mildew in the lapse
Of a few miserable years—
B it natui e's book is even yet, :
With all my mother’s lessons writ
I have been out at eventide
Beneath a moonlight sky of spring,
W hen earth was garnished like a bride.
And night i; ci on hersilver wing—
When ou.-jtmg leaves and diamond grass,
Ami waters b-Cpiug to the light,
And all that tikes the pulses pass
With wilder liectjicss, throng’d the night-
When ail was beauty—then have I,
With friends ou whom ray love is flung
J.ike myrrh on winds of Arabv,
Gaz’d up where evening’s lamp is hung,
And when the oeautii'ul spirit there,
Flung ofer nit' its-goldeii chain,
My mother's voice c.tme on the r.ir
I.'he tballght dropping of the rain—
.and resting ou some silvYr star
The spirit of a bended knee,
I've pour'd her low and fe; rent prayer.
That our eternity might be
Jo rise in heaven like stars at night,
And tread a living path of light.

IMPROMPTU.
41 State Rights,— There are in use
among those men who makes politics a
a profession, certain phrases of supposed
or real influence, which, ifrequired to he

the popular and varied meaning, much less
reconcile with common sense. ‘ Slate
Rights,” in the mouth of certain politi

“ w itchcraft,” and is used with as much
formality and official importance as if it

Am. dole of Captain Hull—communi
cated bp one of his officers.—During the
cruise of the frigate United States, in
1826, this ship lav at anchor in the port
ot Callao. 'The Castle, which commands
the port, was in possession of the Span
iards commanded by Gen. Rodil, and
was besieged and blockaded bv the Pat
riot forces. One, night the British 84,
Cambridge, Capf. Mali?, came into the
above port, and was fired upon by tiie
Castle ; a boat was despatched immedi
ately by Cap?. Malig to inquiie the cause
of the outrage. Gen. Rodil replied that
lie supposed the Cambridge to be the U.
States Frigate, Capt. Hull, and he did
not consider it proper for any neutral ship
of war to anchor within gunshot of the
Castlo during that crisis. This answer
was communicated to Capt. Hull, in the
morning, by Capt. Malig. Capt. II. im
mediately cleared his ship for action,

rjT HIS Medicine has acquired a very extend-

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 surprisingcures 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 their tendencies to all (hose diseases which
originate in vitiated blood, diseased liver, or der

of mercury so often- occasions. No onp, how
ever is advised to take it without first fully con

and the rectitude of the Proprietor’s intentions.
This Medicine has the singular fortune, a just

purposes of human existence. Under these as
pressions. v e shall give to physical edwc'l< • ti...-
proportion of our attention which seems ih: :
its importance. Mural education we shall c
der as embracing whatever is to form the h
and stamp the character. Thc infiuen. •: of *.
ample in the sphere of daily intercourse, we re
gard as the most powerful instrument iu tiie !
matioii of moral habits. In no light d ; v. c can-
template the pi ogress of education with more-
satisfaction, than when we view it as elevating
and purifying the gient body ofthe comrmmit
aud thus affording to the attentive and refleetin
parent, thc pleasing assurance, that his clTor:
with his children at home, will not he counter
act. il by contaminating example abroad. 1’ar-
ticular attention will be paid to domestic educatin'.
or that which emanates from parental and tannh
influence ; nor shall we neglectpersonrl educe
tion, or that which consists in the voluntary for
mation of individual character.
The subject of female education is one which
was deemed unspeakably important, he ban
no hesitation in expressing our conviction that it
has not yet received the consideration which it
merits. Whatever concerns tiie culture of thc
female mind, extends ultimately to the formation
of aH minds, at that early and susceptible p rw<!
when maternal influence is forming’ the impr<
s ons which eventually terminate in mental am
moral habits. But the theme is too full of impor
tant and interesting topics to admit of disem-:'!: 1
in a prospectus. There is no department of oar
labours, frofti which we anticipate a higher grab
! fication, than enr endeavors to aid tire iu.-'v
\ tion ofthe fomale sex.
j Our efforts shall be directed chiefly to ear’,
j and elementary education, because it is, in cur
| view, more important than that of any other p
! riod or department. At the same time, we sh - 1
not omit the higher branches of science and lit
erature, nor the training preparatory to prof< ,:
sional pursuits. In particular branches of in
struction, w i have no favorite theories to obtrude
To what is of old standing, we have no ho^tuitv
arising merely from its being old. Novelty w
shall always regard as an indifferent circut
stance, rather than a. recommendation. But ex
planatory, practical instruction, under ® iiatever
name it may appear, we shall be happy al! time>
to aid with our best exertions.
As our pages are to be devoted exclusively to
the cause of education throughout our country-
an earnest and cordial invitation is gi- en to per
sons in every quarter, who take an interest in
our labours, to assist us by thc communication o’-
useful and interesting matters.
