From the National A efts, INCITEMENT -to CHEERFULNESS THE morning fun, with genial ray, ‘Nonr climbing hit aetheriai way, Had flied effulgent beam*, Exeurßve from my wonted cell, 1 marked the turfy ojijedts well, That haunted purling dreams.

In waters fond lo lave, I turn’d, and gar.’d upon the deep— The foaming iurge lay hudi’d in deep, No wiud perturb'd the way. Their oara the nimble feullers ply ; The jolly tars, now round they fly, jdnd all in lively motion ; Now from ihefWt, propitious gales Eapand the lofty, flutt’ring fails, And lure to cleave the ocean. Now roaming the meaad'riii; flrei-t, I, f wains in tatter'd gafeients meet, Intent on sordid gain.

If all the cackling .-athurVd And bejrr chant for glee j Why should fad gloom my bcow o’etetiV, ’ Embitter ev’rv fwtet repast, And force life’s charms to flee ?

Tis unnecessary ta tell Gentlemen of reading that the fame of Sidney has gone throughout the earth. Mr. Thompfbn.a favorite bard of Naturaand >f Scotland, calls him the “ Brititß Jtratm.” The fammi!

Pinckney us'd always to put Sidney. a firft book, into the funds ot his ftudenti. Waftjir.gtoa, Jdfcffon, frank lin, Maddifijn, Zee. received frrm Sidney these clear view* of ott T Rights, which bore them up so glorious ly ngaiufl Lord North’s tncroacHmenti.
