Iriendfc of the Ftape;—the f iends of virtue too,
The chppbant Drama brings her suit to you.
Long has she borne reproach ;—for though her brow
Of obi was luminous, and burns e’en now
With heaven’s own fire,—the intense and hallowed flame
That Genius kindles round a deathless name-
We hear her still denounced as Virtue’s foe:
'.'till round her shrines is muttered many a wo ;
3 till, at her name the superstitious sigh *,
The grave, look graver ns she passes by ;
The bigot’s ban on all her.priesthood falls,
And pulpit tbuilders shake her temple walls.
Has, then, thoStage become a battle plain,
Where Honor bleeds, and Innocence is slain?
V/herc Lust lie j gorged, and on whose reeking p«lo
Birds of ill-omen sit, and snuff the ta : nted gale ?
Grant, for a moment,—what is yet denied—
Grant that, in this, the Stare is not belied ;
Grant, that its scenes are those of sin and shame:

PROFESSOR OF SIGNS.
King James VI on removing to Lon
don, was waited upon by ihe Spanish em
bassador, a man of erudition, but who bad
a crotchet in bis head that every country
should have.a Professor of Signs, to teach
them to understand one another. Tho
.ambassador was lamenting one day, before
.the King, this great desideratum through
out all Europe, when the king who was a
qneerh'i sort of a man, says to him—‘Why
I h ive a professor ■ t signs in rlio nonhern-
njost college of nay dominions, viz. at
Aberdeen ; ‘ YVe-e ,t 10,000 leagues off
I shall see him,’ says the ambassador,’and
am determined to sot out in two or three
days.’ The king saw he had committed
himself, and writes o: causes to he written,
to the University of Aberdeen, stating the
case, and desirjng the professors to put
him off some way, <>i make the best of him.
'The ambassador arrives, is received with
salemniiy ; bat soon began to inquire
which of them had. the honor to be the
professor of signs ? and being told that the
professor was ibsont in the Highlands, and
and would return n ;body.couldsay when ;
S*vs the Ambassador,‘I will wait his re-
stirn, though it were twelve month: \ See-
rag that this would n >t do, and ill it they
had to entertain him at h great expense!
all the while, -lie}’ contrived a stratagem.
There was Geord , a butcher, blind ol at. |
r.ye, a droll follow,- with much wit and ro- |
guerv about him. Me is got, told the stu- '
x^aud instructed tube a professor ofsigns;
but n .t to speak on pain of death !—Geor-
dy undertakes is.— fin? ambassador is
n.nv told that the piofessor of signs would
be a; home next day, at which he rejoiced
greatly. Geordy gowned, trigged, and
placed ilAa chair of sore,, in a room of the
college, all the professnis and the ambas
sador being in an adjoining loom. The
ambas- i lor is now slio yn into Geordy’s
;jon>, and left to converse with him ns
well as lie could, the professors waiting
the issue with fear and trembling. The
ambassador holds up one of his fingers to
Geordy ; Geordy holds up two of his.—
The ambassador Holds up three—Geordy
clenches bis fi>t and looks stern. The
ambassador Mien takes an orange from his
p ick y, and holds ,t up. Geordy takes a
I'tece it barley r ike from bis pocket and
h '! I- tils: up. After which the Ambas
sador bows to him, and te ires to the other
professors, who anxiously inquired his o-
piiiie i of their hr lther. lie is a pirfeel
miracle /” Says the ambassador.'' ‘1 would
r. rav him for the weal b of tho Indies!'
"’ \ T f eii\ 'be 'Ti I 's .ors,’ do descend
’ o' tcu' ‘«\\ by,’ said the am*
t, 4 i;'St neti cue finger, de-
t'tere '-vus ouu G’od he held-
up two, signifying that these are the Fa
ther and Son—I held up thripe, meaning
the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; he
i clenched his fist, to say that tlie*e three
; are one. I then took out an orange, sig-
, nifying the eoodness of God, who gives his
j creatures not only the necessaries, but
the luxuries of life ; upon which the won
derful man presented a piece of bread,
showing ihat it was the 'stall of life, and
preferable to every luxury !”
The professors were glad that matters
had turned out so well; so having got quit
of the ambassador, they next got Geordy,
to hear his version of the signs. ‘Well,
Geordy, how do you come on, and what
do you think of our man V ‘The rascal !
says Geordv, ‘what did lie do first, think
je? He held up one finger, as much as
to say, you have only one eye.’ Then I
held up two, meaning that my one eye was
perhaps as good as both of his. Then
the fellow held up three of his fingers, to
say there was but three eyes beetwen us;
and then I was so mad at the scoundrel,
that I steeked my neivc, and was to come
a whack on the side ef his head, and
would ha’ done it too, but for your sakes.
Then the rascal did not stop with his pro
vocation here, but forsooth takes out an
orange, as much as to say, your poor beg
garly cold country cannot produce that !
I showed him a wangofa bear bannock,
meaning that I did na’ care a farthing for
him nor his trash neither, as land’s I ha’
this! But by -J that’s guid fconcluded
Geordy) I’m angryyet that I didna’ thrash
the hide oftho scoundrel!
—0Q©—
Canadian Loyally.—A short time since
ap itinerant showman had the temerity to ?
introduce into the loyal town of Brock-.i
ville, Upper Canada, “ three mortal! ene
mies of the British government in Cana
da,” in the shape of wax figures, which,
from the labels pinned upon their outer
garments, were intended to ropresent
Washington, Bonaparte, and Lafayette,—
The good people of Brockville, not liking
this invasion of their territory, with that
promptness for which his Majesty’s sub
jects were justly lauded during the war,
repaired to the enemy’s encampment; and
perhaps, fired by the rebel tunes discliai fr
ee! from a tin trumpet and barrel organ lo
cated at the head quarters, very unceri-
moneously intruded themselves upon the
trio of generals, and commenced hostili
ties by pulling their noses and sticking
their fingers in their eyes ; but the gener
als, though acknowledged in the field real
“ men of metal,” on this occasion prov
ed to be “ lads of wax,” for not withstand
ing their countenances were much distor
ted by the pointed remarks <-/the assail
ants, they were to much the friends of our
country to commit an-act that might be
i considered casusftzdcris.The brave Cana
dians finding all efforts to provoke the ani
mosity of the disguised enemy ineffectual,
attacked a member df the body guard, but
bis voice was for peace, and lie plead,
“ trumpet tongued” that the harmony
which had prevailed might not be disor-
gan ized : but, instead of moderating their
rage, it only tended to add to its fury, when
they, without further parley, commenced
a general battle, in which we regret to
slate tho corps were nearly torn to pieces.
Gen. Washington was captured without
having made the slightest resistance, and
cast from the heights upon the stones be
low, from which he was taken breathless;
faint hopes are entertained of his recove
ry. General Bonaparte shared a more
dreadful fate, having been decapitated at
one blow, and bis headless trunk exposed
to the fury of the populace. The last infor
mation received relative to general La
fayette represented him as rapidly retreat
ing with the loss of a leg, having given his
enemies the only security in his power,
“leg bail,” for his appearance to answer
any charges that might be brought against
hi in.
We would for the honor of humani
ty now close this horrid recital, but it is
our duty to state, that the ladies who trav
elled in the suiie, were treated with an in
dignity borderiug on savage rudeness;
their apartments were entered without
their consent, and one lady torn from
her bed, stripped of her garments, and
'timed into the street while she was asleep,
and helpless infants who had not learned
to lisp the name of ‘‘ father,” “ mother,”
were dragged from the arms that encircled

Have just received a fresh supply of the Celebrated
Swaiill’s Panacea.
For the cure of Scrofula, or King-’s Evil, Ulcers.
Rheumatism, Syphilitic, Mercurial and Liver
Complaints, and most Diseases arising in de
bilitated constitutions, or froman impure state
of the Blood, Jicc. k.c.
FSTIIIS Medicine has acquired a very extend-
A 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 liiood that such surprising cures have been
performed in numerous diseases.
The effect of this medicine is such as not to in
to: rujit either business or pleasure, and requires
only the common restraint of modcrationin diet.
It is conveyed by the circulating tluids, and cor
rects their tendencies to ali 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.
This Medicine has the singular fortune, a just
tiibute to its great meiit, of being recommended
by the most celebrated Practitioners of Medicine
in the Lhiited States and elsewhere, whereas not
one ofthe spurious mixtures made in imitation
of it, is supported by the Faculty. This fact of
fers an argument so plain and conclusive, thatit
needs-only to be mentioned to enforce convic
tion.
or THE
Southern Agricultural st
JHE wantofa work to which our planters j
could refer for information, relative to the
Agriculture of the Southern section ofthe Union
has long been felt, and has long been submitted
to as a necessary evil for which no remedy was
at hand. With a sufficiency of talents and of en
terprise, to conduct experiments to draw infer
ences and to detail them, yet have we presented
to the world, the spectacle of a high minded and
enterprising agricultural community, destitute of
original agricultural works, and depending sole
ly on original communications, or Foreign publi
cations for all our knowledge onjthese subjects.—
Whilst others have carefully collected and recor
ded the experience of their practical Farmers,
we have permitted the bard earned knowledge
of our farmers topexish with them. Whilst others
have been straining every nerve in the cause, we
have been mere lookers on, wh ist they have
advanced rapidly, we have been stationary, or
at best have progressed but slowly. From what
cause has arisen the vast superiority or the North
over the south in all which relates to Agriculture?
Has it been that they alone have turned their at
tention and profited b. them ? Not so. The
Planters of of the South have been as enterpri
sing and as active in their researches, as those of
the North. But whilst the discoveries made by
the latter are brought immediately into notice bv
their periodical publications, those of the former
are known but to few for want cf a proper vehi
cle of communication. Hence it has been that
their improvements have been more rapid than
our’s, and that wC are at this day deficient in this
branch of knowledge. Such being the case, does
it not heroine our Planters to come forward and
assist in the present undertaking and contri
bute from time to time such information as may
|l»e of service to the community- This work will
e divided into three parts. Part 1st. Original—
irt 2d. Selections anchReviews—Part 3d, Agri-
ultural Information.
Part 1st will contain all Original Essays on
|Agi iculture; Horticulture, Botany, Rural affairs,
and Domestic Economy, Not only the present
staple articles of the South will be attended to,
but also the introduction of new objects of Cul-
' ture such as the Grape A’ine, Olive, Capers, Tea
Sugar Cane, Silk Worm and others, which have
yet been untrie of course not known how far
they may he climalised. Only that branch ofHor
ticularwill e for the present attended to, which
relates to the Kitchen Garden, When the pro
per time shall ariive, we are prepared to give
directions for the cultivation of the higher bran
ches.
Part 2d will contain Selections from Foreign
Works on the above subjects so far as they may
be applicable to the soil and climate of the South
ern section of the Union, or may in some wav be
of use to our planters. Reviews of such works as
may trrnt ofthe Agrieuliure of these States, or
such as may either directly or indirectly have an
influence on us, will he inserted in this part of
the work.
Part 3d will contain brief Agricultural Notices
as that our planters may not remain ignorant of
what is going on, hut may have an opportunity of
knowing what is done in the different parts ofthe
world in aid of Agriculture, it is iioped that this
knowledge will be a spur to our enterprise, and
cause us also to make fi^sh exertions. Here al
so will be inserted a list of Agricultural, Horti
cultural and Botanical Works, and occasional
ly some nolice will he taken of their conteuts.
Advertisements of Agricultural Works, and Im
plements, or any other which may interest the
Planters generally, will be published on a sepa
rate sheet, and attached to each number.
