THE MOTHER TO IIER CHILD. One kiss, my hoy, upon thy cheek— That cheek so young and bright— And once again I’d hear thee speak Thy softly lisp’d “good night;’’ Then rest, and not a shade of earth, Can cioud thy slumbers fair; {kirk dreams from worldly cares have birth, And thou hast nought to care ; ,0, why might not life’s silver tide With thee thus ever smoothly glide! Who gazes on the bloom of May, Sor sighs that all will withei ? And yet the blossom must decay, Ere we the fruits may gather; And life’s sweet morning buds of joy, Like spring flowers soon depart; And thou must change, yet wear my boy, Like freshness in thy heart; Pure feelings like the flower’s perfump. Embalm the memory of its L.oom. Man’s lot—“dominion o'er the earth”-*— Marksth his sinews strong, And that proud lot "will lead thee forth. All ardent mid the throng; life’s onward path is wrapt in night, And dangers are its Fame ; Ambition holds an eagle flight, And spurns at Quiet’s name ; And Pleasure’s syren songs enjice. ■And flowers conceal the precipice. 0, wilt thou wander, then, my boy X Away, ye idle fears ! Why shroud our sun of present joy In clouds of future years ? There’s ONE will watch thee, though I sleep Where morning never ^jone ; There’s ONE thy faultering steps can keen; Wouldst thou HIS voice were known 7 Then list, amid the world’s wild din Th ’ Still small voice thy heart within. —— SONG. Ah! let us love while yet wo may: Our summer is decaying: And w.-. to hearts, uhleh in their grey Dere!nl>er. go a Maying. Ah ! l.et us 1 .ye. w/iilo of the fire Time hath not vet bereft us : With years our warmer thoughts c>pir<v Till oijy ice is left us. ▼rVll fly the bleak world's bitter air— A brighter home shall win us ; And if our hearts grow • eary there, We’ll fled a world within us. They preach that passion fades each hour— That nought will pall like pleasure;— My bee. if lore’s so frail a flower Oh! ha?*? to hive its treasure. Wait not the hour, when all the mind Shall to the crowd he given : Eor links which to the million bind, Shall from the one he riven. But, let us love, w-hi’e yet w e may— Our summer is decaying ; And woe to hearts, which in their grey December, go a Maying. STANZAS, ^ lpve thie not with earthly love, Though still thou he a chihi of earth— I love thee as thou’rt loved above. By Spirits of immortal birth. Oh ! thou’rt to me a living dream, Impalpable to aught but soul—' Olne wish would dim that spotless beam, One touch would humanize the whole. Tiien dread not feeling so refin’d, ’Tisnot the bolt that burns and blights— Like Heaven’s own flatne with love combin’d, It consecrates where’er it lights. It is tjie spirit of the heart, The fragrance of its living flower, That doth awhile to life impart, The freshness of an Eden hour. Reported for the United States GctzetLj. COMMONWEALTH vs. WM. LES1IER. Oyer and Terminor, November Ses sions IS27—Present Gibson, C. J.; Re gers, J.; and Tod, J. Judge Rogers tvas holding tiie nisi priiis, & was sent for to hear the arguments of counsel, and give his opinion in the following case. The defendant was indicted for mur der. After calling several jurors and qualifying them separately, Isaac W. Mor ris fa meovver of the society of Friends) was called and no* challenged by the de fendant. Mr. Morris then requested the court to excuse him front serving on :lte jury, as he had conscientious scruples against finding a verdict which would take away the life of the prisoner, even if the evidence warranted such a verdict. After this declara ! >oii ho was challen ged by the counsel for the commonwealth, T. M. Pettit, who alledged that the declaration of the juror was a good cause for challenging him, as iie was biassed against 'he commonwealth. He cited the principles of the law in 3 Black. Cum. 361 and Chitly’s Criminal law, in relation to challenges, and reasoned from analogy that the j uror was not omni exceptione ma jor and mentioned that the reason why ibis point had never been decided in Eng land was, that Quakers are prohibited by s'atute from serving in criminal cases tinless they take art oath. Watmough, M’Laughiia, and D. P. BrovD, ft r ttm defendant, contended that this was no ground for challenge,that it was an abstract opinion of the juror which did not incapacitate him from serving—that the principles in 3 Black, were confined to civil cases, and cited 4 Black. 352—that the jttfor had no predetermination for or against the prisoner, and that a challenge fur favor is for some particular predilec tion tor either party, not a vague and gen- eral opt^io* as in the present case. They referred to ca#t> of theCotntrtofl- wealth vs. James Allen, before the late chief justice Tiighman and the present chief justice, then judge, Gibson, where it was said this point was decided to be no case of cahllenge, at an Oyer and Terminer at Pbilad’a in NoV. 1821. Pettit in reply, said that this point was not decided in Allen’s case ; that ihejuror there refused to be sworn or affirmed, and was committed to prison by the court for a contempt. He stated a case before Judge Ross in Montgomery county, where he was told that a similar declaration of a juror was decided to be good cause of a challenge for the commonwealth. The judges delivered their opiniou se- peratelv. Gilson, C. J.—Did not think the gen eral opinion of the juror any ground of challenge ; he stated the case decided by himself and the late chief justice who he said was a most excellent criminal lawyer and whose opinion he respected very highly—if the commonwealth rs. Allen, whore the juror refused to be sworn or af firmed and was committed to prison by the court fi r it—lie thought the point con tended for here by the prisoner’s counsel was recognized there. This case did not come within any of the causes of challenges laid down in the elementary books—the opinion of the ju ror is erroneous in a mere abstract ques tion—it is a hypothetical one which is not sound—the law does not permit a chal lenge for such. We cannot legislate on this subject.— It must be left for the correction of thele- gislature. Rogers, J.—Stated he did not think the arguments of counsel had embraced the point. The juror wished to be excused as lie had conscientious scruples against finding a verdict which would take the life of the prisoner. If the court were to corrtpeld him to serve, they would place him in this dilemma, either of finding a verdict against his oath or of violating his consciences. A qualification is imposed on the juror to find the prisoner guilty or not guilty according to the evidence. Sup pose the evidence warranted finding him guilty*, he would he obliged to find him so by tlurterms of the qualification. On the oiher hand liis concience forbids him lo do so, and he is placed in a struggle between bis oath and his conscience. He did not think the court had any right or power to fo re an individual to this. The juror says to the court “ lead me not into temp tation,” and the court are bound to excuse him. The provision of the coslitution too which guarantees free opinions to ev ery citizen, would grant iiim relief. Ii secures him from a duty which would not excuse a juror, unless he had conscien- tibus scruples. Members of the Society of Friends es pecially, are known to have such scru ples, which would induce liitn to excuse a juror who is one of them. If neither party waie to challenge a juror, and the juror stated he had such conscientious scruples, he could challenge himself and he would permit him to do so. Tod,J.—Did not think a juror had a right to challenge himself. It would be impossible to procure a jury if every one were permitted lo do so. The duties of jurors are public duties, and are onerous, and they would escape thn performance of them, which are required of every citi zen in this way. If he thought the late chief justice had decided this very point,.lie would yield to his opinion—but the case before him was different from this. A bias against either party, is a good cause of challenge. Here the juror states to the court that if he is placed on the jury and the evidence would warrant a con viction which would take away fhe life of the prisoner, he could not consent to such a verdict. If such persons are not per mitted to be challenged by the common wealth, the criminal laws of our country will be prostrated, and the lives of our cit- zens may be taken away by assassins and murderers with impunity—no redress could be afforded for the punishment of crimes, when crimes of the greatest mag nitude me committed. Judges are bound to support the laws of the land. The court ordered the juror to be ex cused and another called.

The astonishing success which this remedy has obtaiued in restoring habitual inebriates to so- hriety, has established its virtues beyond all con tradiction, and supersedes the necessity of any further comment.

All that is required, to ensure its specific effect is to abide strictly by the directions.
