POETRY.
BY THE “BOSTON BARD.'*
Victor, what avails the wreath
That erst entwin'd thy brow ?
Alas ! those flowers no longer breathe,
For death hath laid them low!
And what avails the storied om
That blazons forth thy fame ?
That sculptur’d vase to dust shall turn—
Oblivion blot thy name.
What, too, avails those scars so deep,
Receiv’d in battle fray ?
44 They’re raoori or valour !”—Time shall
sweep
Thy valour’s proofs away !
And what avails the minstrel’s song
That sounds thy praises forth ?
This minstrel's head shall rest ere long
Upon the lap of earth.
AvjAiice, what avails thy dreams
Os happiness in gold ?
Thy funeral torch already gleams—
Thy days on earth are told :
What now avails thy hoarded wealtli ?
Is it with thee inurn’d ?
No—“ Naked from the earth you came,
And naked have returned.”
Beauty, what avails the rose
That decks thy dimpled cheek ?
Age on thy head shall strew his snows,
And death his vengeance wreak:
And what avails thy form so fair,
Or eyes so dazzling bright ?
That form shall waste in sullen care—
Those suns shall set in night.
But, blest Religion ! much avails
Thy hope of bliss in heaven ;
For though thy barque, by adverse gales,
On death’s dark shore be driven,
Still canst thou smile ! tby steady eye
Can pierce the cheerless gloom,
And view, through dark futurity,
The DAY SPRING OF THE TOMB.
Late Omissions.
THE QUEEN OF BRITAIN.
Though we do not admire the Queen of Eng
land much —dt gust thus non disputandum —we
are willing that any body else Khali. So our read
er* may e’en take the following.—.Vaf. Intel.
Reply of the Queen to an address of the Highland
Society of London.
“ It is with unfeigned complacency I accept
this artless tribute of glowing affec'ion and gene
rous loyalty, from an assembly of the metropolis,
who are natives of that romantick region where
the spirits of departed warrionrs still speak in the
winds, swim upen the clouds, or gleam upon the
hills. lam well aware that they come from that
land which is renowned for faithfulness to its
chiefs, and that their fathers bled fora sovereign
who had no other claim to their support but that
which grief gives to the faded cheek and sunken
eye. They are natives of that land where ad
versity attracts more regard than the smiles of
fortune ; where the houseless have a home, and
the friendless never want a friend. 1 was sure
that griefs li|ce those which I have suffered, and
persecutions like those which 1 have undergone,
could not be objects of indifference to those who
were born and reared in that district where the
brave are sensitive, and the sensitive are brave.—
Their minds could not contemplate with apathy
a fond mother, roaming like an exile in a distant
land, while her only child was in vain imploring
her presence with that look of solicitude, and
• that gaze of importunity, thut marks the parting
hour. The dark cloud of death soon covered her
snowy breast! Deep and general was the lament
when her heart beat no more ! Grief sat on every
brow, and the face of the country appeared as if
the desolating blast had traversed the land. Her
remains needed no obsequies. Her tomb was
the tomb cf virtue. Affection sepulchred her
memory in every heart.
“ The year* that are passed, are to be no more,
arc but a* things that have only an i,;eai existence
in the memory ; bat still they may cause the eye
tost a ah i tear*, or the bosom to heave with
regr-t. .he loveliness Jhat has sunk into the
grave is still lovely in the mind ; and in that form
in which virtue has made its shrine, death is not
lasting oblivion, but increased end lasting remin
iscence. It is truth, it is integrity, it is benevo
lence ; it is *be amiable, thi generous, the sin
cere ; or in one word, it is a goodness pure and
holy, that converts the mortal into the immortal,
the dying into the ever living, the shadow into (he
substance, the fugitive into the fixed, time into
eternity !”
While one of the young ladies of the deputation
presented a bouquet to her majesty,and the whole
deputation was passing, the banners waved, and
the b-epipes played the inspiring air of “ Scots
who iiae wi’ Wallace hied.”

The following facts relating to the t.'axton
Printing office may be relied on. With other
articles destroyed, were twelve, printing pres

drawings, about seven hundred reams of paper,
ten ’honsand pages of stereotype plates, fifteen
thousand pounds weight of types, two patent
hydranli.-k presses, and above three million* of
folio, quarto and octavo ntimhers.
No >‘oubt is entertained by those who have ex
amin'd its cause, that this property was all des

into one of the windows. Mr. Fi*her, the pro

the rooms, have been twenty. Few establish
ments in the kingdom so many old ser
vants as the Caxton. In addition to the men
-deprived of employment in Liverpool, several
hundred others, employed in different parts of
the kvgdom, have been necessarily discharged,
inconsequence of this calamitous event.

BONAPARTE.
Extract of a letter from St. Helena , dated Dec.
17, 1820.
“ Bonaparte’s new house is finished, but not
yet furnished. It is one story high, and is situ
ted about 200 yards from the old building, and
forms three sides of an oblong square. The right
wingcontains the apartments of General Montho
lon,'the surgeon, and the two priests: the centre
and part of the left are allotted to Bonaparte and
the orderly officer. Those for Bonaparth consist
of a library, drawing-room, dining-room, break
fast-parlour, bed-chamber, bath, and dressing
rooin, with a water-closet; Montholon has lour
rooms. The whole are neatly fitted up in such
a style as you see in the country-house of an En
glish gentleman of £2OOO a year. The court
yard contains a tank of water. The kitchen is a
separate building, erected at the end of the
square, and contains every requisite accommoda
tion. Bonaparte rode out some time ago to Sir
William Doveton’s, in Sandy Bay, to breaktast,
taking with him a Sumpter mule, laded with pro
visions, and ate his meal on the grass near Sir
William’s house. This was nearly the first time
he had been on horseback for four years, and he
was so fatigued that he was obliged to send lor
the carriage to convey him back to Longwood.
He appears very unhappy. The governour will
have no communication with Bertrand, and Bo
naparte will not receive any, except through
him. Madame Bertrand and family purpose leav
ing this in April next; but general Bertrand re
mains. The education of her young children is
assigned as her motive for this step.”
Naples.*- The intelligence, through Paris, from
Naples, states, that on the latter end of Jaunary,
levies had been ordered by the Prince Kegent
of Naples, of 10,000 men, from the classes of 1819
and 1820. His Royal Highness has ordered
6,000 muskets to be sent into the Abruzzi. He
was about to visit those provinces. Thirty-six
thousand men have been raised in the Abruzzi,
in militia regiments ; 24,003 of whom have been
completely clothed and drilled. There are let
ters from Vienna, confirmed by others from vari
ous parts of Italy that mention a most unexpected
degree of firmness on the part of the aged Ferdi
nand of Naples. It is asserted, that he has refus
ed his consent to the various modifications of the
constitution proposed by the holy despots, and
has expressed his desire to return to Naples as
soon as possible. Rumour says that a treaty ex
ists between Russia and Austria, by which in case
of success, the former is to possess Sicily, and the
latter Naple. In consequence of the priests of
the Neapolitan states having, in certain instances,
opposed themselves to the advance of knowledge
and the progress of liberty, and having in several
diocesses shown some disinclination to admit per
sons bearing the name of Carbonari to the peni
tential sacrament, the minister of Justice has is
sued a circular, enjoining all curates, vicars, and
ecclesiasticks, not to mingle their ministry in af
fairs which are purely temporal—to limit them
selves to the benevolent exercise of their sacred
functions, and not to attack political doctrines,
which, if violently opposed, might produce all
the evils of anarchy and violence.
Ireland. —“ What is at this instant the actual
situation of the Irish peasant?—He rents, per
haps, one, two, or rarely three acres from some
absentee landlord, to whose agent he pays from
40r to 31 an acre, with a proportionate sum in
presents for forbearance. He pays the Catholick
pastor the dues of his own religion. He pays
the Protestant pastor the tithes of the Establish
ment. He pays a stipulated period of duty work
to his landlord ; and, after deducting the value of
his labour and his stock, he feeds, or rather
starves, a numerous family on the profits. Nor is
this all. The clergyman, to secure himself, lets
his tithes at a valuation to a proctor, and the
proctor grinds the occupier for hi equivalent.
The absentee landlord lets to a middle man, who
lets again to the resident labourer, and thus the !
peasant, who occupies and tills the soil, has to j
bear the extortion of a four fold profit to the cler-!
gyrnan and the proctor and the landlord and the I
middle man, not to mention his fees .to the Cath
olick priest, and his hush money to the Protes
tant agent. The consequence of this is visible.
He lives in his mud hovel in an actual state of
nature. His wife, himself, his children, and his
pig, associate on terms of comfortable equality—
the same sty covers, and the same potatoe feeds
them; and the ear of the passenger would not
easily distinguish between the howl of the host
and the grunt of his family. The unfortunate
victim of this system thus lingers out a miserable
existence; or, sometimes finding even that im
possible, flies to the fatal chances of illicit distil
lation. With the jail of his landlord for his rent
on one hand, and the jail of government sot his
crime on the other, his morals become desperate
as his fortune, and he plunges headlong into an
abyss of perjury, too familiar to be any longer
frightful. [lrish Journal.
The following strange but well attested
occurrence actually took place a few day 6 since.
A map-servant in the employ of the Rev. Dr.
Palmer, of Yarcombe, being taken ill, tjje med
ical attendant on the family was sent for, who
prepared a bolus from the family medicine chest,
and haring wrapped up in paper the grain weights
used in weighing out the proper proportions of the
drug, left them op. the table, and near to them
the bolus, which he desired one of the females
of the house to carry to the man-servant, with
instructions to take if immediately in treacle.
Some hours afterwards, his master came to in
quire about the patient, and found him suffering
under very uneasy symptoms, which the man at
tributed to the strange kind of medicine the doc
tor had ordered him and which he said he “could
never have got through with had he not cut it
into smaller pieces,” but “ he thanked God, that
though it was rather rough and sharpish, he had
got it all down.” This account puzzled his mas
ter exceedingly, who, however, soon discovered
that the man had actually swallowed in treacle a
complete set of brass grain-weights, instead of the
bolus, which was found lying on the table, in his
master’s room ! Proper remedies were immediate-
ly adopted for dislodging this uncommon dose
from the man’s stomach, who subsequently re
covered from his illness. It would be difficult
to find a parallel to this instance of implicit faith
in the power of the curative art, or a similar ex
hibition of astounding ignorance among “ unfledg
ed animals walking on two legs.”
[Bristol Mercury.
The Typhus Fever has broken out in the Aus
trian encampment in Italy : and has spread so
widely, that in some regiments there are from 700
to 800 men laid up in the hospitals; and in oil
there were 16,000 men sick. The cavalry had
also suffered considerable loss, attributed to want
of forage; 1500 horses bad died within a short
time.
Sea Serpent—again Capt. Grows, of the
brig Minerva,arrived at Portland from Martinique,
reports, that on the 30th ult. off Cape Ann, the
sea quite smooth, and a very light breeze, he saw
very distinctly, the Sea Serpent, at about 40
yards from bis vessel, steering South. Capt. G’s
description of the serpent corresponds w ith for
mer accounts. He has heretofore disbelieved the
existence of this monster, but his doubts are now
entirely eradicated.
Guyaquil, it is said, was revolutionized on the
9th October last, without bloodshed.

New York, March 27.
DEPARTURE OF rev. MR. IVARD.
This excellent man and indefatigable servant
of the cross, who has been severul months in this
country collecting money for one o! the noblest
and most benevolent pm poses which can com
mand the atteutiou of the Christian world, em
barked on Sunday afternoon in the Hercules tor j
Liverpool. After spending a few days among his |
friends in England, he will tske his departure lor ,
the last time for India, wherehe calculates to enu
his days in the great work in which he has already j
been engaged for more than twenty years. ‘
He preached on Sunday miming in the Baptist ■
Church in Fayelte-strcet, aid a collection was
taken up for the Baptist Foreign Missionary So-,
ciet> —the labours of which are now directed to
the propagation of tfie Gospel in the Burmau
empire, where the darkness of superstitiou and ;
infidelity is of a deeper shade, if possible, than
among the Hindoos. The service was solemn and
interesting. After the closed the discourse, Mr.
Ward delivered a short hut affecting tarewen ad
dress to the audience, as representing the whole
body of his Christian triends in America, of whom
he spoke in terms of the most lively friendship,
as well for the kindness and attention which had
been shown him, s for the liberality with which
they have contributed to the object of his mis
sion. The audience were so much affected, that
the tear glistened in almost every eye. A parting
hymn, prepared tor the occasion, was then sung;
and Mr. VV. accompanied by a number of friends
to the boat, took his final departure from Amer
ica.
Mr. W. has preached many sermons in this city,
and all directed to the same special object—yet,
his mind is so well cultivated, and enriched with
such a fund of that all have been
new, instructive, and deeply interesting.
We consider it peculiarly fortuuate for the mis
sionary cause, that Mr. Ward has been called by
Providence to visit this, country. His long resi
dence in India—his intimate acquaintance with
that counlryc-the climate and manners of its in- j
habitants—their laws, customs, literature, and j
languages—added to his talents and other general
knowledge—have admirably fitted him, not only
for the buisness in which he was more immediate
ly concerned, but also to diffuse knowledge
amongst ns, as to the actual condition of the peo
ple of that country, and the success which has
thus far attended the missionary establishments,
and the prospect before them. His visit we con
ceive will also have another salutaiy effect. It
will tend to break down and destroy the prejudi
ces which it is not to be denied still exist among
qjany, against foreign missions. They have heard
the testimony of a faithful and intelligent witness
who has long been in the field. Having heard
this testimony, they caunot longer believe that
the object in view will never be accomplished.
Many have forsaken their idols and embraced the
Christian Faith—others are daily hearing the
“joyful sound” from the lips of native missiona
ries—and we have every reason to believe that
all India will ere long, “stretch out her hands un
to God.”
In the city and connty of New-York are 71
places of pnblick religious worship—five are va
cant, Sixty-three ministers have independent or
associate charges; 10 or 12 reside in the city
without paroclual charges. Beside these, there
are several local Methodist preachers. The Sab
bath Schools in the city, comprise about 7000
pupils, and 1000 superintendents and teachers.
The apprentices library contains more than 5000
volumes—looo different apprentices improve it.
The amount expended for publick and private
schools in the city, comprising 6600 scholars, is
stated at J 14,759 and 41 cents—compare this
with the amount expended for spirituous liquors,
$1,893, 011 !

PROPOSAL |
For publishing in Augustine, East Florida, j
A WEEKLY PAPER,
TO BE ENTITLED
THE FLORIDA GAZETTE.
IT is the glorious characteristick of the age in
which we live, that the Press, if not the her
ald, i always the attendant upon every revolu
tion, having for its object the emancipation of
mind or the happiness of man. The Provinces of
Florida having now become a part of the territory
of the United States, it is believed that the tide of
emigration will set rapidly towards her shores, in
creasing her wealth, and filling her ports with our
enterprising and industrious fellow citizens of the
old states, and offering a home and a refuge to the
exile and the fugitive from the oppression of Eu
ropean thraldom. Favoured by nature with a
fruitful soil—abounding in articles of luxury and
commerce, and blessed with a climate more con
genial to the constitution of the Etranger and so
journer than the southern stated* this section of
“our country must become great and powerful, and
in time rival its neighbours in Agriculture, Com
merce and in Arts. With these impressions, and
under the belief that a well conducted Press is
one of the most powerful auxiliaries, not only to
morality and religion, but in promoting the wel
fare of any particular section of country, the sub
scribers propose to publish in the city of St. Au
gustine, a Newspaper, under the above title.
The Editors of the Gazette do not wish to make
promises, or to raise expectations which may
never be realized. It is sufficient to say that the
politicks of their publication shall he American,
and their conduct in the management shall be in
strict accordance with the maxim—
-44 Open to all parties—lnfluenced by none.”
It will be the object of their industry and labour
to render the Gazette the vehicle of the latest in
telligence, Political, Commercial and Literary,
and no effort will be spared to render it a pleas
ing, an interesting and a valuable publication.
