POETRY.
From Baldwin's London Magazine.
THE RAINBOW.
The evening was glorious, and light through the
trees
Play’d the sunshine and rain-drops, the birds and
the breeze;
The landscape, outstretching in loveliness, lay
Oh the lap of the year, in the beauty of May.
For the Queen of the Spring, as she pass’d down
the vale,
Left her robe on the trees, and her breath on the
gale;
And the smile of her promise gate joy to the
hours,
And flush in her footsteps sprang herbage and
flowers.
The skies, like a banner in sunset unroll'd,
O’er the west threw their splendour of azure end
gold;
Bat one cloud at distance rose dense, and in
creas’d,
Till its margin of black touch’d the zenith and
east.
We gazed on the scenes, while around us they
glow’d,
When a vision of beauty appear’d on the cloud :
’Twas not like the Sun as at mid-day we view,
Nor the Moon that rolls nightly through star-light
and blue.
Like a Spirit , it came in the van of the storm!
And the eye, and the heart, hail’d its beautiful
form;
For it look’d not severe, like an AngeJ of Wrath,
But its garment of brightness illum'd its dark path.
In the hues of its grandeur sublimely it stood,
O’er the fiver, the village, the field and the wood ;
And river, field,village, and woodland grew bright,
As conscious they gave and afforded delight.
’Twas the bow of Omnipotence ; bent in Ili?
hand,
Whose grasp at Creation the Universe spann’d :
’ Twas the presence of GOD, in a symbol sublime;
His Yow from the Flood to the exit of Time !
Not dreadful, as when in the whirlwind he pleads,
When storms are his chariot, and lightnings his
steeds;
The black clouds his banner of vengeance un
furl’d,
And thunder his vcfice to a guilt-stricken world ;
‘ln the breath ofbis presence when thousands ex
pire,
And seas boil with fury, and rocks burn with fire; ]
And the sword, and the plague-spot with death !
strew the plain,
And vultures and wolves are the graves of the 1
slain:—
Not such was that RAINBOW, that beautiful one; j
Whose arch was refraction, its key-stone the Sun;
A Pavilion it seem’d which theJJeity graced,
And Justice and Mercy met there and embraced.
Awhi’e, and it sweetly bAnt over the gloom,
Like Love o’er a death-couch, or Hope o’er the
tomb;
Then left the dork scene, whence it slowly retired,
As Love bad just vanish’d, or Hope bad expired.
I gaz’d not alone on that source of my song;—
To all who beheld it these-verses belong ;
Its presence to all wasthe path of the Lord!
Each full heart expanded,—grew warm, —arid
adored!
Like a visit—the converse of friends—or a day,
That Bow from my right pass’d forever away ;
Like that visit, that converse, that day—to my
heart,
That Bow from remembrance can never depart.
r Tis a picture in memory distinctly defin'd
With the strong and unperishing colours of mind ;
A part of my being beyond my control,
Beheld on that cloud, and traoscrilreo — v to ,,f
MISCELLANY.
GOOD FRIDAY.
This day commemorates the sufferings
of Christ, as a propitiation for our sins.
Holy Friday, or the Friday in Holy Week,
tv as itsflinore ancient and general appella
tion ; the. name Good Friday is peculiar to
the English Church. It was observed as a
day of extraordinary devotion. Buns, with
crosses upon them, are usually eaten in
London and some other places, on this day,
at breakfast.
The follow ing account of the representa
tion of the crucifixion on this da}', in Portu
gal, as given by Mr. Whitfield, is very curi
ous;—“ We had not waited long (says Mr.
IV.) in the church belonging to the conv'nt
of St. de Beato, at Lisbon, before the cur
tain was drawn up: immediately, upon a
high scaffold, hung in the front with black
baize, and behind with purple damask laced
with gold, was exhibited to our view an im
age of the'Lord Jesus, at full length, crown
ed with thorns, and nailed on a cross, be
tween two figures of like dimensions, rep
resenting the two thieves. At a little dis
tance, on the right hand, was placed an im
age of the Virgin Mary in plain long ruffles,
and a kind of widow’s weeds. The veil
was of purple silk, and she had a wire glory
around her head. At the foot of the cross
lay, in a mournful, pensive posture, a living
man, dressed in woman’s clothes, who per
sonated Mary Magdalene; Rod not far off,
stood a young man, in imitation of the Be
loved Disciple. He was dressed in a loose
green silk vesture and bob-wig. His eyes
were fixed on the cross, and his two bands
a little extended. On each side, near the
front of the stage, stood two centinels in
buff, with formidable caps and long beards,
and directly in front stood another yet more
formidable, with a large target in his hand:
we may suppose him to be the Roman cen
tufion. To complete the scene, Srom be
hind the purple hangings came out about
twenty little purple-vested winged boys,
two by two, each bearing a lighted wax
taper in his hand, and having a crimson and
gold cap on his hrad. At their entrance
upon the stage, they gently bowed their
heads to the spectators, then knelt and
made obeisance, first to the image on the
cross, and then to that of the Virgin Mary.
When risen, they bowed to each other and
then took their respective places over
against one another, on steps assigned for
them on the front of the stage. Opposite
to this, at a few yards distance, stood a black
friar in a pulpit hung with mourning. For
a while he paused; and then, breaking si
lence gradually raised his voice till it was
extended to a pretty high pitch; though 1
think scarcely high enough for so large an
auditory. After he had proceeded in his
discourse about a quarter of an hour, a con
fused noise was heard near the great front
door; and, turning my head, I saw four
long bearded men, two of whom carried a
ladder on their shoulders ; and after them
followed two more, with large gilt dishes in
their hands, full of linen, spices, kc.: these
were the representatives of Njcoiletmis
and Joseph of Arimathea. On a signal giv
en from the pulpit, they advanced towards
the steps of the scaffold; but, upon their
first attempling to mount it, at the watchful
centurion’s nod,the observant soldiers made
a passat them, and presented the points of
their javelins directly to their breasts.
They are repulsed. Upon this, a letter
from Pilate is produced; the centurion
reads it, shakes bis head, and (with looks
that bespoke a forced compliance) beckons
the centinels to withdraw their arms.
Leave being thus obtained, they ascend,
and, having paid their homage by kneeling
first to the image on the cross, and then to
the Virgin Mary, they retired to the back
of the stage. Still the preacher continued
declaiming, or rather, as was said, explain
ing the mournful scene. Magdalen per
sists in wringing her hands, and variously
expressing her personated sorrow; while
John (seemingly regardless of ail besides)
stood gazing on the crucified figure. By
this time it whs nearly three o'clock, and
the scene was drawing to a close. The
ladders are ascended, the superscription
and crown of thorns taken off; long white
rollers put round the arms of the image ;
and then the nails knocked out which fas
tened the bands and feet. Here Mary Mag
dalene put on a most languishing look, and
John, if possible, stands more thunderstruck
than before. The orator lifts up his voice,
and almost all the hearers expressed their
concern, by weeping, beating their breasts,
and smiting their cheeks. At length, the
body is gently let down ; Magdalen eyes it,
and gradually rising, receives the feet in
to her wide spread handkerchief; while
John (who hitherto had stood as motionless
as a statue) as the body came nearer the
ground, with an eagerness that bespoke the
intense affection of a sympathizing friend,
runs towards the cross, seizes the upper
part of it into his clasping arms, and with
his disguised fellow mourner, helps to bear
it away. Great preparations are made for
its interment. It was wrapped in linen
and spices, kc- and, being laid upon a bier
richly hung, was carried round the church
yard in grand procession. The image of
the Virgin Mary was chief mourner; and
John and Magdalene, with a whole troop
of friars with tapers in their hands, follow
ed. Determined to see the whole, 1 wait
ed its return, and, in about a quarter of an
hour, the corpse was brought in and depo
sited in an open sepulchre prepared for
the purpose; but not before a priest, ac
companied by several of the same order, in
sptendid vestments, had perfumed it with
incense, sang to, and knelt before it. John
and Magdalene attended the obsequies, but
the image of the Virgin Mary was carried
away, and placed in front of the stage, in
order to be kissed, adored, and worshipped
by the people.”
tAST FLORIDA.
Extract of a letter to a pieman in Rich
mond. (Fa.) from, his friend in St. Augus
tine, dated April 5, 1821.
“ I wrote to you a few days before I left
Charleston, and intended to have written
to you again on my arrival at this place—
hut I have postponed it until I could either
see or learn more of the country of Florida.
This town has been built a great many
years, and bears evident marks of it as it
is completely in ruins. It is the seat of
government,and consequently the residence
of the Governour, Mr. Coppinger ; who is
a plain, civil, and apparently very friendly
man. He seems to bes very anxious to
leave this place and return to Cuba, his t
native place, and the residence of his wife
and family, from whom he had been sepa
rated several years; but he and most of the
Spaniards here seem very much mortified
at the thoughts of giving up a country which
possesses a great deal of fine land but from
which they receive little or no benefit—
for there are not half a dozen Spanish set
tlements on this side the Cape.
“ The town of St. Augustine can never
be a place of any consequence, either for
commerce or as a deposit for the produc
tions of the country ; for there is a most
difficult and dangerous bar at the rnodth of
the river, which has not more than nine
feet water at high tide, and the bar is said
to shift with the winds—so that it can never
be a port of entry for large vessels; and
the poverty of the surrounding country for
20 miles, is such as to prevent any kind of
produce being brought here. The lairds
on the St. Johns are said to be very fine; it
lies about 35 miles to the northward of this
place, and runs in a semicircular form, be
ing equi-distant from hence for many miles.
On this river are some settlements, and it
is probable that (he principal port of entry
on this gije of the Cape will be near the
200
mouth of th river, as it has more water
than any otb • stream. The *
Indian river the one GO and the o .
miles to theouth oi this, are sau 1 eu s
to have on ttem very fine lands well adapt
ed to sugar, nd many persons !hmk o
fee. Buttl indolence oflhe Spaniards is
such that tl y have made no expenmen
of it. But he finest part of the country
lies to the i of this, and is called Aloch
na: it is sa I to be as rich as land can po.-
sibly be. is, however, in possession o
the IndiansAvho will not willingly 1
up. They are much excited against the
Spaniards, for having (as they say, and very
justly) sold them and their country ; so tnai
it is infer for an American to travel into •
the interiour of the country than lor a
Spaniard —though it is by no means sate
for either without an Indian guide, many ot
whom are constantly coming to this place.
There are a vast number of large gi ants
for land embracing a great proportion ot
the best laird in the country; but most ot
them are forfeited from non-compliance
with the conditions of the original grant;
which generally required that they should
be sevtleu within a limited time. This wilt
open die door for disputes to all the large
grants. As soon as it is safe to travel in
the country, 1 mean to take a tour through
“ I shall remain here until the exchange
of flags takes place. I did expect there
would have beet a great many negroes im
ported here before it was given up, but net
one has Arrived here except a few brought
from the United States. Money appears to
lie scarce here,as in Virginia. Notwith
standing the ruiious condition of the bous
es here, they i“k the most extravagant
prices for them, .rod they rent proportiona
ble hi°-h. There are a number ot adven
turers coming oi Irere from (_ liarleston and
Savannah, but to men of capital except
one from Charleston, who Ims purchased
a house in town and lands on the Musquito.
The healthiness of this place may induce
many persons from South Carolina and
Georgia to retire here in the sickly season.
The appear much mortified,
that this long settled place is not to be con
tinued the seat of government. They are
indeed deeply interested, as their town
property will be worth very little. 1 wait
with great impatience to see the American
(lag supplant the Spanish. 1 think it will
be necessary to send a pretty strong force
here at first, as Well as to Pensacola : for
the Indians are by no means reconciled to
the exchange, and many of then) are under
an impression that the Arpericans intend
to make slaves of them. There are a vast
number of runaway negroes among them,
who probably from motives of policy incul
cate their opinions. Tie appointment of
Gen. Jackson as Govemour of Florida has
mortified the Spaniard.*, and struck terror
into the Indians, who appear to be panick
struck at the bare mention of his name. 1
think it would be unsafe to purchase lands
here, until they are sold by the authority of
the United States.”
LOSS OF THE SCHOONER ELIZABETH.
Middletown, pon. April 12, 1821.
Among those calamitous events incident to a
sea-faring life, >ew occurrences have excited
more generally, the attention and commiseration [
of the publick, than the loss of the schooner Eliz
abeth Capt. Vail, bound from Matanzas for Sa
vannah. She was freighted with coffee and sugar,
something less than t'o thirds her burthen, and
sailed on the 12th FVbruary. For the three first
days the weather w:s good, and every thing pro
mised a favourable voyage. On the night of the
15th, the wind begm blowing from the S. S. W.
and continued to’ iicrease until it blew a gale.
While running unier short sail, at the rate of
about 9 knots, she was struck with a heavy squall,
hroaehed.lto, and overset, and almost immediate
ly filled. This happened about four o’clock in
the morning of the 16th, lat. 27, I>o, long, about
73, 30. The crew, consisting of four seamen,
besides the captain and mate. The passengers
were Mr. Francis Sge, of Middletown, Mr. C.
Weygent, of Pennsylvania, and Mr. White, of St.
Johns, Cuba. Capt. V. was in the act of going
to assist the man at the helm, when the squall
struck her, having iti his hand the crotch-rope.
He was thrown over, and remained in this situa
tion until after day-lreak, maintaining his hold
with the utmost diflculty for two hours, when
the mate, (who, havjng gamed the wain rigging
and lashed to the tiain chains) hearing him cry
out, threw him a robe, which Capt. V. fastened
round his body, awl was drawn to the main
chains,-which the (sassengers had by this time,
reached, the vessel (till lying on her beam ends.
About 4 or 6 hours ffter she upset, they succeed
ed in cutting aw<y the lanyards, when the
masts both unstepied, and she immediately
righted. On the tab they lashed the topmast
aihwart the quarter’rail, on which they placed
themselves, to procure some respite from the fury
of the waves. Mr. White died on the night of
the 16th, and Mr. Saga on the 17th. The disaster
was so sudden and so decisive that no opportuni
ty was afforded for obtaining provisions. All that
could be found, was a few oranges and some
plantains that floated within their reach. These
were carefujly divided and appropriated with the
strictest justice and economy. On the third day
the weather moderated, and continued tc blow
fresh at times, until the 26th, when Mr. Weygent
died. On the morning, and until the middle of
this day, the weather was calm; but towards
night the clouds began to gather in the east and
passed over to the south. The threatening as
pect of the sky foreboded a stormy night. Cap
tain V. addressed his afflicted fellow sufferers,
and informed them that they could Lave but lit
tle hope of seeing another day, and requested
them once more to kneel down, and unitedly to
commend themselves to that God who spared
them so long, and into whose presence they were
so rapidly hastening. Although they had become
so weak, that for most of the day they were una
ble to sit on the spar, Capt. V. relateß that after
they rose from prayer, they felt a degree of
strength that seemdt to inspire fresb courage.
He immediately tolqthe.crew that he now felt a
strong confidence tiat the approaching storm
I would prove the moms of their deliverance, by
driving souse vessel jut of her course. And such
| spirit was imparted to them that they sung a
j hymn, in which were these remarkable words:
Ye fearful saints , fresh courage take ,
The clouds you so much dread
Art big with mercy\ and will break
With blessmgs on fur head.
After this they passed a tempestuous and dis
tressing night; jut after day-break they espied a
brig to westwarl, standing towards them. Here
a „am their fears arose, lest they should not be >
covered by the brig. But m a few moments
they saw /man running up the main-top with a
■m/glass, and no language ran describe the bel
ines of these miserable sufferers, when they ascer
tained beyond a doubt, that the brig was bearing
d °lt'proved‘*to be the brig Btatira C.pt. Patten
bound from New Orleans to New A ork. And it
i‘ ,t„e to the humane Captain and Ins crew to
slate that no act of friendship was omitted, which
their sufferings demanded or their exhausted con
dition admitted. Such of the crew as belonged
to tins place have returned in succession irom
the hospital in New York, like so many messen
gers from the threshold of the eternal work..
VVhile reflecting on the incidents that attended
this remarkable deliverance, let those who are
diposed to call in question the agency of a par
-ticular Providence, solemnly pause—-ami let infi
delity be dumb. Well may these emancipated
sufferers, supported even beyond their hopes
amidst ihe dangers and protracted fury ot the
waves, rescued, also, from the monsters o! the
deep that thronged the wreck with unceasing
vigilance—well may they exclaim, ” not a spar
row falleth to the ground without the notice ot
our Heavenly Father.”

{FT- The following notice of the above work is

literature, we think ourselves called upon to state,
that we have lately received two Numbers, being

American Review, or Miscei'-aneous Journal,’
published quarterly at Boston, which appears to
us to be by far the bust and most promising pro
duction of the press of that country that has ever
come to our hands. It is written with great spir
it, learning and ability, on a great variety of sub
jects ; and abounds with profound and original
discussions on the most interesting topicks.—
Though abundantly patriotiok, or rather national
there is nothing offensive or absolutely unreasons*
ble in the tone of its politicks; ami no very rep
rehensible marks either of national partialities or
antipathies. The style is generally good, though
with considerable exceptions—and sins oftener
from affectation than ignorance. But the work
is of a powerful and masculine character, and is
decidedly superiour to any thing of the kind that
existed in Europe 20 years ago.
“ It is a proud thing for us to -see Quarterly Re
views propagating bold truths and original specu
lations in all quarters of the w'orld ; we
grow old and stupid ourselves, we hope'still to be
honoured in the talents and merits of those heirs
of our principles and children oi our example.”
