The Spirit of Beauty.
Where does the spirit of Beauty dwell t
Oh! said one, if you seek to know,
You must gaze ground, above below,
For earth and heaven and ocean tell
Where the Spirit of Beauty lpves to dwell.:
But see. she comes with early spring
And winnows the air with her fragrant wing.
Clothing each meadow and hill and tree
In the bloom or her rich embroidery.
Ask her now. e’ei she pass away.
Where on earth she delights to stay.
And the Spirit will pause while earth and sky
Ring with tones of her glad reply.
“ Seek for me in the blue hare bell.
In the pearly depths of the ocean bell,
In the vesper flush of the dying day,
In the' first faint glow of the morning ray;
I sleep on the breast ofthe crimson rose
and hide in the stately lilies’ snows,
I am found where the cfarystal dew drops shine
No gem so bright in a diamond mine;
I bloom in the flower that decks the grave,
And ride on the crest of the dark green wavej
I’m. up and away o’er earth and sea,
Till there is not a spot from my presence free.
“ I aht seen iu the stars, in the leaf enshrined,
Aud heard in the sigh of the whispering wind ;
On the rippling breast of the winding stream,
In the mellow glow of the moon’s mild beam,
1 fan the air with the bird’s light wing;
And lurk in the grass pf the fairy ring,
My tints in the rainbow arch are set.
And I breathe in the fragrant violet.
“ Now listen to me—for sooth to say,
There is one spot where I fain would stay ;
I love all things in earth t sea, sky—
But my own best home is a maiden’s eye!
Oh! (could linger forever there,
Nor sigh for another, a sphere more fair,
Lurking for aye iu her cheeks warm smile.
Round her rosy lips with their playful wile ;
Roving at will tiirough each golden curl,
That waves o’er a brow like an Indian pearl
And sinking at night to a blissful rest
Mid the spotless sno .v of her fragrant breast,
Seek for uie there, for I full well
With the young and bright eyed maid to dwell."

This continent offered a:ti asylum or rurent from Bri
tish oppression.
Our forefathers repaired to this country; set’.letLdowa
amongst the Indiaus in the best manner tl,. v ►onld,
without any assistance from the mother country, l’cr
{ many years they suffered privations unexampled ; in-
"cessant wars with the Indians, and a constant oppres-'
sion from the mother country, by their forcing over
them rulers against their jyill ; and compelling them to
trade with none but the mother country, at whatever
exorbitant duty they thought proper to impose; all this
was borne because of weakness, and. too, even with
those oppressions they were efejoving more liberty in
their persons and religion than ft as allowed them in
the old country. This state of things was interrupted
by the unexampled growth of these colonies, which
tempted the mother country to impose more and more
taxes, and to increase her control, both civil and mili
tary, by sending us Governors and Judges, and a larg$
military force to awe our people into submission.
This for a time Yvas borne ; yes, and longer than for
bearance could be called a virtue. And never until
the oppression became so great that the hazard of re
sistance could bring nothing worse, did our people at
tempt violence. And even then, their first intention
was only to arrest the oppression and not to sever
themselves from the mother eonn’ry.
This offended the King, who detirantied to reduce
the Colonies to unconditional submission. He quar
tered large bodies of mercenary troops iu $ur country
to keep us in awe, and even introduce^ large quanti
ties of foreigners, not speaking our language, to scourge
us for what he was pleased to call disobedience. This,
as ’twas natural it should do, aroused our forefathers,
and they determined to resist the oppression with all
the means iu their power.
To this end they met in Congress, the then thirteen
States being represented, and then and there, on tho
4th day af July, 1776, unanimously declared these
States to be free and independent.
Q glorious Fourth of July! that brought to a nation
its liberty, snatched them itom the hands of tyrants,
and has been the means of producing one of the most
enterprising, intelligent, virtuous and happy nations
upon the face of the globe. Then I would ask, is it
notour duty to God and our country to celebrate with
lively recollections the 4th ol July in each and every,
year as it shall roll around.
For one, I should say yes; and 1 think I see the
countenances of my audience giving aliveiy responsive
yes. I wish to claim but little for myself, yet I hope
I can, without any offence, claim to be, and to have
been a patriot; concede to me that character—thus
let me, iu that name, admonish every father and mo-,
ther within the hearing of my voice, to remember, ve
nerate and celebrate the 4th of July in each succeeding
year, that our children, and the children of those who
may come after us,may be enabled to set a proper es
timate upon this, to us all, important day.
I feel, Fellow-Citizens, that I have fulfilled my pro-,
mise, by barely giving the reasons why we celebrate
this day, having done so, I offer you the following sen
timent :
The Union of the States upon constitutional princi
ples—a sure guarantee to our perpetual independence
and recollection of the 4 th daj ofJuly, 1776.

By Francis Bacon, Esq. • mr ftvo new sister States,

Fearless they stood in genuine might,
Like Eagles on the mountain height,
Near their high brows the glittering shade
Of bright and glorious fancy played !
But ere they reached the glorious height,
Love’s arrows stopped their tow’ring flight.
By Nath’l Bradford, Esq. Long corns and short

By H. Crowell, Jr. The festivities of the day, so
brilliantly illuminated by the association of the fair, is
well calculated to impress on the minds of at least all
young men the necessity of celebrating each anjl every

By A. P. Willct, Esq. Here is success to the
Crawford Volunteers that left their homes and fami

grows and water runs.
By Paschal Hopkins, Esq. The Fair—a proper

deportment.
By Cql. H. Crowell, Sen. Andrew Jackson, our
patriotic chief magistrate—he has, 1 know, taken res

sures ; but I dare the world u» point to the act of his
that has not terminated radically right, and to the be?
nefit ofthe government which he was serving.
The party retired by 5 o’clock, all in good order ;
indeed, I beard oTbut one that was so much fatigued to
to go off, for that he had permission in the early part
of the day.
The Magic Onion.—It is sometimes called the
Canada, sometimes the tree or top onion. This
is a singular plant, and deserves cultivation, not
only for its domestic use, but also as .an object
of curiosity. AH other plants raised in the gar
den are oviparous, or re-produce their species
from seeds or eggs, but this alone is viviparous,
and brings forth its young alive; in clusters of
four or five, around the parentstalk.—These con
tinue to enlarge, until their weight bungs them
to the earth, where, if not prevented, they take
root, and the maternal stock now becomes useless,
dries off, and the next season, these in their turn
become parents, aud reproduce a numerous pro-
geny.
This species of anion is raisrd with less art tnati
the other. If you would have them in perfection
make your ground ready as for the other kind I
theu stretch a line teu inches from the ally, and
with a small hoe make a furrow two inches deep;
iu the bottom of this place set the top bulbs, or
infant onions, five or six inches apart, with their
points heads uppermost: theu fill up the drill tvith
the hand or broad hoe. This done, remove tho
line back a foot, and in the same manner plant
as many as vou please. In setting out these
bulbs, you should not palce the large aud snail
ones promiscuously together, but separate tho
large from the small, and plaut them in different
rows; the largest will generally become breeders
this season, while thesmall ones will enlarge and
swell into beautiful onions, fit for any use in tho
kitchen.
The magic onions intended for seed, or breeders,
should be two years old and tho largest and best
of their kind. They must on no acocunt stand
near tfie other species of seed onions, for they
will degenerate, and a. mongrel race ensue.—
