POETRY.
From the Baton Recorder.
THE SABBATH.
It was a pleasant morning, in the time
When the leave* fall—and the bright tun shone out
As when the morning stars fist sang together—
So qnietly and calmly fell his light
Upon a world at rest. There was no leaf
In motion, and the lond winds slept, and all
Was still. The laboring herd was grazing
Quietly on the hill-side—all undisturbed
By the harsh voice of man, and murmuring sound,
Save from the distant waterfall, came not
As usual on the ear. One hour stole on,
Ano then another of the morning, calm
And still as Eden ere the birth of man.
And then broke in the Sabbath chime of bells—
And the aged man and him of few years, went
Together to the house of God. 1 mingled with
The well apparelled crowd. The holy man
Rose sole mu )y, and breath'd the prayer of faith—
And aged saint, just on the wing for Heaven—
And him of strength—and the bright hair'd young
man,
And child of curling locks, just taught to close
The lash of its bine eye the while ; —all knelt
In attitude of prayer—and then the hymn,
Sincere but homely in its melody, went up
To worship Ged.
The white-hair’d pastor rose
And look'd upon, his dock—and with an eye
That told bis interest, and voice that spoke
In tremulous accents, eloquence like Paul’s;
He lent Isaiah's fire to the truths
Os revelation, and persuasion came
Like gushing waters from his lips, til hearts
Unu6’d to bend were soften'd, and the eye
Unwont to weep, sent forth the willing tear.
I went my way, but as I went, ! thought
How holy was the Sabbath-day of God. ROY.

EXTRACT FROM A LETTER DATED NORFOLK, 3d
NOV. 1024.
“ Mrs. Pitts, a Methodist lady, on Nansemond
river, near Suffolk, lately died, and left her Ne
groes free, upon the condition of their going tn
Africa, and has directed her administrator to fur
nish the necessary means to defray all the expen
ses of their transportation.”
This extract is sent to you, Messrs.
Editors, not because the good deed
recorded in it is anew thing under
tiie sun, but because it is the last
circumstance of the kind that has
come to the knowledge of the wri
ter, and lie wishes to present it to
jour readers, especially to your
northern readers, as a subject for
reflection.
Taking advance of the facilities
~aflonlf:-d ‘b¥-ti:e Colony at Liberia,
this Lady has m?de provision for
the return of her to the
land of their fathers, yhe Coloni
zation Society will furnish them
land—support them for a short
time—in a word, enable them to
form an establishment at home—
with a fair prospect of enlightened
liberty and happiness for them
selves and their children. Now, is
not this relation between the Socie
ty and such slave-holders as may
wish to give liberty to the captive,
enough, of itself, to enlist in favour
of the enterprise, the benevolent
feelings, and the co-operation of all
our fellow citizens at the JYorth ?
They profess, and doubtless feel, I
great dislike to slavery, and often
express ardent wishes for its aboli
tion. Here is a plan which many
wise and good men believe will gra
tify these wishes, and free Our coun
try entirely from the evil they so
much deplore. Why then do they
not ioin heart and hand in so fflori
mis an enterprise ? Is it because
they do not believe it will fully ac
complish this object ? But, do you
withhold your hand from supplying
want and relieving woe, because,
notwithstanding all that you can do,
there will still be poverty and suf
fering in the world? Oh no! you
never, for such a reason, left a man’
in his misery, except in the case be
fore us, and it is well worth the
while to consider whether, in order I
to he consistent, you ought not to j
lend your aid to the Colonization
Society, although you may doubt
whether its results will be so great
as some of its friends expect. It
can do something. Nothing is more
certain than that a flourishing Col
ony can easily be established on the
coast of Africa. The British have
proved it at Sierra Leone; and, if
there were no other instances, it is
pßDved by the Colony at Liberia.
If this Colony should be well sup
ported, the Virginian will be no
longer under the necessity, as* he
may be now —l might say, as he is
flow —in many instances, reluctantly
to contiuue a slave-holder.* Why
then, I again ask, why are northern
philanthropists so slow to come for
ward in its sup|)ort ? Does not such
conduct furnish slave-holders with
a plausible reason to doubt the sin
cerity of their professions?
A FRIEND TO LIBERIA.
* The reader will bear it in mind, that by see
ing with their own eye* the condition of the col
oured population in some of the Southern States, j
many northern men. besides the writer, hare been ,
convinced of the sound policy, and Ihe humanity
of the laws restricting emancipation. He will,
reflect, too, that he does not himself Wish more 1
free negroes to become inhabitants of his own ‘
neighbourhood.
Concord, n. h. Oct. 22.
The Rev. Chester Wright, of
Montpelier, Vt. delivered an ad
dress on Thursday evening to a ve
ry full assembly in the Representa
tives* Hall, in behalf of the Ameri
can Colonization Society. A collec
tion was made in aid of the Society
and a committee was appointed to
take into consideration the expedi
ency of forming, in this State, a So
ciety auxiliary to the one named,
and, should they think it expedi
ent, to form and report a constitu
tion at a future meeting. Messrs.
Toppan, Lambert, AVebster,Fletch
er, Parker of Amherst, Keith, Ha
ven, Brown of Francestown, Smith
of Peterborough, and Hubbard,!
compose the committe.— Register.
On Friday evening the above
committee reported a constitution
for an auxiliary society, which was
adopted.
THE BRAVE IPSARIOTS.
A Turk who was present at the
capture of Ipsara says, “ I was at
the explosion of St. Nicolo. Five
to six thousand Ottomans surround
ed this fortress. Though destitute
of artillery, my companions wished
to give the assault; nothing abated
their courage, not even the cannis
ter shot, poured from the castle,nor
the brisk tiring of the besieged.
Two hours before the terrible ca
tastrophe, an Ipsariot with a match
in his hand advanced towards us.
He was shot down by a thousand
balls. A second succeeded to the
same fate ; a third appeared and 1
perished in the same manner—!
What was our astonishment to see
a fourth, a fifth, and even a sixth.
Sublime devotion! Some moments
alter St. Nice!” blew up. Though
one of the most distant, I was vio
lently thrown down, and covered
with /earth. I got up an hour after,
feeling as if I had been raised from
the dead. It is generally believed
in the Ottoman army, that from!
three to four thousand Turks per-j
ished about this fortress. AVe as-l
terwards learnt that the spot to
which the six Greeks were advanc
ing, was a vast subterranean pow
der magazine, which had done us!
so much injury by the Explosion.” j
From the Trenton Emporium.
LOOK OUT AHEAD.
“The seaman on a dangerous sea,
“ Looks out ahead—and wise is he”
But there is no less necessity for looking
out ahead on the land (han on the sea.—
We are all embarked on a voyage—all ;
have to pass through a variety of dangers !
—have misfortunes of various kinds lo avoid |
—and this retires, generally, only (Ac con■ j
stant exercise of the gifts of prudence and !
foresight which we naturally possess. I say j
we must keep these faculiies in exercise,;
for a great deal more than half the ills he i
suffer are the offspring of our imprudence
and idolence, not of uncontrollable misfor
tunes.
By looking out ahead, I simply mean,
acting with a prudent reference to coming
time—making all necessary provision for
the future—and leaving as little as possi
ble to the mere chance of what is called
luck! For there are those who do none of
thege things ; who learn not the lesson of
| the ant, to lay up, while the sun shines,
; stores for a wintry day—and glean not
] from the busy bee the wisdom, to provide
a plentiful home against the days when the
season for making (his provision shall be
past. The world is full of misery, but not
more full of misery than of folly.
It well becomes the youth who is setting
out in life, surrounded by a circle of gay j
companions, and often tempted to the place I
of revelry and dissipation— to look out ahead !
—to remember what is said most truly of 1
the power of habit—to reflect on the con
sequences of an irregular life—to look to
the precipice to which it leads—to call be
fore his mind those ghostly monitors which!
have passed in poverty, in contempt, in
sorrow, to a hopeless end, the victims of in
i temperance or crime—to pause—to ponder
—to resolve aright.
.j. Nor le*s does it become him who has
just set his feet upon the active stage ofj
I bu*<neM having arrived at manhood, to |
look out ahead ! He has a character for In
dustry, and punctuality, and honesty, to es
tablish, which are of vital importance to
his future welfare. He has also to estab
lish those rules for the management of his
business by which, probably, he will fall
or rise, for acereless method of transacting
these matters, once allowed, and ten to one,
things grow worse and worse—the evil is
increased instead of being remedied.
The girls and boys, too, who get into
the old fashioned notion that they must get
- married, as their lathers and mothers did.
; ought by all means to—“ look out ahead.'”
The times especially call for it now, though
-1 in all times it is necessary. Our young gen
tlemen are sometimes dissipated—our
i young ladies sometimes extravagant, and
’ to® much given to pride & indolence ; Ihese
I should all be old bachelors and maids; they
,! would only be a torment lo their partners if j
they got them. Care should be taken to!
. avoid these. Then there should be a uni
son of feeling, a conformity of taste, a suit
ableness of temper, and an affection found
ed on merit ; otherwise there can be no i
happiness in marriage—For, as sailh Peter
, Pindar—
“ Oh matrimony, thou art like
“ To Jeremiah’s figs ;
“ The good were very good, the bad
“ Too sour to give the pigs.”
In fine—lt becomes all men to —look out
ahead! The man whose polar star is ambi
tion, should so temporize bis thirst for glo
ry, as that disappointment take him not
unawares, and bring not sorrow with it.
The politician should beware that to pre
sent passion he sacrifice not his own and
his country’s interests. The professional
man should look forward tff the day of his
retirement, and see that he carries a good
conscience there. The mechanick should
look to it that he pave the pathway of his
future pilgrimage, not only with a compe
lence, but with ah honorable character,
and a good report. Thejarmershould be
ware of the spirit of speculation ; vow hos
tility forever against mortgages, and while
markets are dull—content himself with do
iog moderately well. These are the ouly
safeguards of the future.
OLIVER OAKWOOD.
MESSIEURS SMITHS.
Every body knows that Smith is a very com
mon name, but hardly any body would have
thought of turning its commonness to account in
such a queer and cruel way as a “gentleman” did
the other night, at one of the theatres. Entering
the pit at half price, and finding every seat occu
pied, he bawled out—“ Mr. Smith’s house is on
fire!” In an instant, upwards of twenty Mrs
Smiths rushed out of the pit, and the wicked wag,
chuckling at the success of his stratagem, coolly
took possession of one of their vacated seats.
