POETICAL FOR TIIR MILL EDO tkVELLB 1ICFLKCTUH. Tlic following extemporaneous lines, were written by a gentleman on being presenter! by bis wife with an artificial fower, called the iikahtseASb. FLORA bestows a flower most neat, Perform'd by.her fair bands complete ; tts name and nature sure will please, It is the beautiful “ Heartsease.” Ah, pleasant flo? :r! and bast thou come, To ornament our rustic home ? Attend bland winds, and zephyr’ous breeze, Of summer’s life, and bring “ Heartsease.” Connubial bliss, three welcome guest, Thy sweet influence * can attest; AVlicn thou art fled, nought can appease The ills of life, but the Heartsease.** The tree of life in paradise, Stood as a pledge of greater bliss: Oil, may this flower our dwellings seize, And stand a pledge of sure “ Heartsease.” repugnant to humanity, as it is inconsistent with the biblc, and destructive to liberty. Every thinking honest man rejects it in' speculation.

SAMVEL nOWAED, August 18, 5S13. tanght me one very important thiiur for a i dan - immonal souls young man to know, that is, never to under take or engage in any alfair without first knowing from what principle I acted, the. of the heart Riant r.ot, but eradicate the i movin S Ciuls '’ examining into the probo- tliorns (hat grow in your partner's path : A-, bov.e all, let no feeling of revenge ever find harbour in your breast: Let the sun never go down upon your anger. A kind word— an obliging action—if it be in a matter of trilling concern, lias a power superior to the harp of David in calming the billows of the soul. Revenge is as incompatible with happiness as it is hostile to reason and religion. Let him whose heart is black with malice and studious of revenge, walk through the field:, while clad in verdure and adorned with (low ers ;—to his eye there is no beauty ; the flow ers, to him, exale no fragrance. Dark as his soul, nature is robed in deepest sable. The smile of beauty lights not upon his bo som with joy ; but the furies of hell rage in his breast, ami render him as miserable as ho could wish the object of his bate. But let him lay his hand on his heart and say—“ Revenge, 1 cast time from me—Fa ther forgive me as 1 forgive my enemies,”— and nature assumes a new and delightful garniture. Then, indeed, are the meads verdant and the flowers fragrant—then is the music of the groves delightful to bis ear, and the smile of virtuous beauty lovely to his soul.— Village Record.

HOWEX. A iye.t t. MISCELLANY. LETTER ON SLAVERY. The. following extract of a letter from Pat rick Henry, late governor of Virginia, fur nishes one among many proofs, that a person may be fully convinced of the iniquity and dangerous tendency of slavery, and yet con tinue to hold slaves. lie appears to have been much too wise and candid to attempt to defend a practice which his conscience whis pered him was wrong: “ Dear Sir—I take this opportunity to ac knowledge the receipt of Sir Anthony Bcne- zet's bunk against the Slave Trade : I thank you for it. It is not a litlle surprising, that the professors of Christianity, whose chief excellence consists in softening the human heart, in cherishing and improving its finer feelings, should encourage a practice so to tally repugnant to the. first impressions of of right and wrong. What adds to the won der, is, that the abominable practice has been introduced in the most enlightened ages.— Times that seem to have pretensions to boast of high improvements in lhe arts, sciences and refined morality, have brought into ge neral use, and guarded by many laws, a spe cies of violence and tyran -y, which our rude and karbaPous, but more honest ancestors, detested.
