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.” Fifty Dollars Reward.

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.” Notice.
