,1 “ A poet’s hand and prophet’s lire, “ Struck the wild warblings of his lyro.” From “ Curiosity,” <i poem—hy Charles Sprague. THE NEWS. Behold the sick man in his easy chair, Burr'd fromthe busy crowd and bracing air; How every passing tridc provas its power To while away the long, dull, lazy hour. As down the pane the rival raindrops chase, Curious he’ll watch to see which wins the race; And let two dor-s beneath his window-fight, He’ll shut his Bible to enjoy the sight. So with each new-born nothing rolls lire day, Till some kind neighbor stumbling in his way, Draws up bis ebair the sufferer to amuse, And makes him happy, while fie tells—the News! The News! our morning, noon, and even ing cry: Day unto day repeats it till we die. For this the cit, the critic and the fop, Dally the hour aw ay in s’ shop; For this the gossip takes her daily route, And wears your threshold and your pati ence out; For this we leave the parson in the lurch. And pause topruttle on the way to church; E'en when sonic cotlin’d friend we gather round, 'We ask, “ What News!” then lay him in the ground; To this tiie breakfast owes its sweetest zest, I’cr this the dinner cools, the bed remains unpressed. What gives each ta!e of scandal to the street, The kitchen’s wonder, and the parlor’s treat? See the pert housemaid to the key-hole fly, When husband storms, wife frets, or lovers sigh; See Tom your pockets ransack for each note, And read your secrets while he cleans your ooat; See, yes, to listen see, even Madam deign, When the snug sempstress pour-, her ready strain. No tongue so vile but finds a kindred car; Sow ii't Hies each tale of laughter, ehamo, or folly, Caught by Paul Pry and carried home to Polly; On this each foul calumniator leans, Full well he knows what latent wildfire lies In the close whisper and the dark surmise; A mufP.ed word, a wordless wink has woke A warmer throb than if a Dexter spoko.

Old Grimes is dead, that good old man, We ne’er shall see him more— Reused to wear an old bine coat Ail buttoned down before. Ilis heart was open as the day; His feelings all were true — His hair was some inclin'd to gray, He wore it in a queu. Whene’er was heard the voice of pain* His breast with pity burned— Tiie large round head upon his cane From ivory was turned. Tlius, ever prompted at pity’s call, lie knew no base design— His eyes were dark and rather small, His nose was aqueline. He lived at peace with all mankind, In friendship he was trne— His coat had pocket holes behind, His pantaloons were bine. Unarmed—the sin which earth pollutes, He passed securely o’er— And never wore a pair of boots For thirty years or more. But poor old Grimes is now at rest. Nor fears misfortune’s frown— He had a double-breasted vert, The stripes ran up-und down. He, modest merit sought to find. And pay it its desert; He had no malice in his mind, N or rutiles on his shirt. Jlis neighbors he did not abuse, Was sociable and gay— He wore large buckles on his shoes, And changed them every day. His know ledge, hid from public gaze, He did not bring to view— Nor mad<- a noise* town meeting days. As many people do. II is worldly goods he never threw In ti nst .to fortune’s chance:!— Hut lived (as all his brothers do,) In easy circumstances. Thus undisturbed by anxious carets, Hir peaceful maim uts ran— And every body said he was A line old gentleman.

(//mt, ttt'trat “Mirth, that wrinkled care derides, “And Laughter, holding both his sides.” MATRIMONIAL ANECDOTE. The Rev. Mr. U , a respectable cler gyman in ths interior of the state, relates the following anecdote.—A couple came to him to be married, and after the knot was tied, the bridegroom addressed him with— llow much do you ax Mister?” ‘-Why,” replied the Clergyman, “I gener ally take whatever is offered me. Some times more, sometimes less. I leave it to the bridegroom.” “Yes, but how much do you ax, 1 say,” re peated the happy man. “I have just said,” returned the clergy man “ that 1 left it to the decision of the bride groom, some give me ten dollars; some live; some three; some two; someone ; and some, only a quarter of a one.” “A quarter, ha?” said the bridegroom: “wal, that's as reasonable as a body could ax. Let me see, I’ve got the money.” He took out his pocket book, there was no money there : he fumbled in all his pockets, but not a sixpence could he find. “Dang it‘” said he, {“thought l had some money with me, but I recollect now, ‘twas in my tot her trow ser3\pockct. Iletty, have you got sich a thing trsfwo shilbngs about ye.” “Me !” said the bride, with a mixture of shame and indignation, “1 am astonished at ye, to come here to be married without a cent of money to pay for it! If I’d known it afore, I would’nt a come a step with ye , you might have gone alone to be married for all me.” “Yes, but consider, II tty,” said the bride groom, in a soothing tone, “we’re m;rri<d now, and it can't be helped; if you’ve got sick a thing as a collide of shillings—” “Here, take ’em” interrupted the angry bride, who. during this spe ch, had been scearching in her work-bag; “and don't you,” said she, with a significant motion of her fin g r, “don’t you never serve me another sieh a trick.” A CATEGORICAL answer. It may seem a matter of no extraordinary difficulty to give a plain answer to a plain question; and yet it is an art that requires some (rouble to learn. In all half-civilized nations,the inquirer for tho most simple thing, is met hy an enigma, for an answer; and, a mong the peasantry of Scot land and Ireland, civilized as the general communities may be, the system often seems to l*e studied evasion This dialogue is the model of thousands in the Hibernian isle:—“ Is the the nearest road to Cork 1” “Is it to Cork you are going ?!’ “ Yes, but my question is, as to tbe n nr.-, t road” “Why, this roa lists near a t.’ 0 one the other side of the hill; for neither 01 them is any road at all.” “ T hen which way ought Ito go?” “t)h, that dept nds on your honor’s own liking. P rhaps you wouldn’t like to go back again?’ “Certainly not. But ct word for all, my good fellow; do you knot v - thing about any kind of road her ??’ “ TL ro now, if y u honor hid asked th t be for , I could have told you at once.” “Out vt it ft (hen.” “Why the truth is, your honor, ! lam a stranger in these parts; and th" L t thing you aan do is to stop till somebody comes that knows all about the way.” “Stu pid scoundrel ? why did you not say so at first?” “Stupid? that’s all my thanks. But why did not your honor ask me if I belonged to the place? that would have settled the flu siness. Take a fool’s advice and stop where you arc!” S- Liver and L.giits.

MY recent relinquishment of a participation - in the editorial labors of an old ami well established jeumal, would seem to require but lew preliminary remarks, in the proposed under taking, were it not, that they are usually deman ded by public expectation, and sanctioned by custom. As there is no good reason why this “unie-hocOrel observance'* should be disregard ed in the present instance, I shall submit an epit ome of my principles, and the course which shall be observed in conducting anew journal. The object ef the proposed publication being purely what its title implies, supercedes the necessity of that political commentary which the doctrines of the day have usually demanded; yet, as my former professions are Held with unabated at tachment, and there being no neutral ground, in the conflicting and varied sentiments, which dai ly arise, as to both men and measures —it follows, that I should not only make an exposition ef my political tenets, but also, that they should be boldly set forth, and fearlessly defended. 1 have ever indulged au ardent devotion to Republican ism, as the term was understood by its advocates in ’9B—a sacred regard to the letter and spirit of the Constitution, and a determined and fixed hos tility to every thing like constructive or implied powers—an extension of equal justice to all par ties—that all power is inherent in and derived from the people, as the original source and ulti mate tribunal —the independence and distinct so vereignty of the States, and their confederacy as a Union, under a government limited and actual ly defined in its powers. These are the promi nent articles of my political faith, and believing in their correctness, shall abide by them in every trial. Among the many topics of deep intercut that agitate the people of all classes, is the exercise ot unwarrantable governmental influence on the industry and resources of the country, and the unconstitutional expenditure cf the public treas ure to objects of Internal Improvement-—measures too frequently destitute of general benefit, and of tentimes marked by a spirit of partiality, selfish ness and injustice. It would be criminal for one “seated on the watch-tower,” and in the exercise of the duties which belong to the Press, to ob serve, with callous iudiflercnee, tho causes which have produced, and the effects which have re sulted from the latjtudinary construction of tho Constitution. The dangerous consequences which may ensue, are already indicated by the excited feelings of the country. lam deeply impressed that wrong has been done, and evil tolerated— yet, with a spirit of forbearance, it would be bet ter for the oppressed to hear they - evils whilst they are tolerable, than “lly to those they know not cf.” The present is an era in the history of our gov ernment, distinguished for improvement. The lover of his country beholds it on its “return march” to its original purity and principles.— Already has the distinguished head of the gov eruincitt, said —“T 1.6 successful operation of tlie federal system can only be preserved by confin-' ing it to the few and simple, but yet important objects for which it was designed.” Tins is a guarantee, that the purpose of the present Exe cutive of the Union and his supporters, is an ef fort to restore the Constitution to its original healthy and unimpaired condition. lam happy :..jcord with the Administration and its friends in !■ .rise and well directed course which is pius. cd by them. ! . time was, when to dissent from the mea of any of the prominent parties of our State, an attachment to any of the others, or to their ;:.on divi.-guished organs, implied an hostility - • v nu ny w hich frequently had no bounds, an ir< adored “ Wisdom, Justice, and Mod'rut ion,’’' a empty and absurd profession. The times and eirviun:.unices have now become more congenial to' bettor feelings: the perplexing difficulties l icit have surrounded us—those emanating abroad, and fostered at home, have subsided, with the acknowledgment of our rights, and the successful accomplishment of nearly all the ends which we have c< ntended for. 1 can review my past course in relation to State affairs, with che st ing approbation; my future efforts will be inti mately connected with the past; and it is hoped, without offence to an adverse party. The writer does not believe in the infallibility of man, nor in their perfection as a party; it will therefore be my endeavor to support worthy men, and ap prove such orthodox measures as may emanate from genuino patriotism and unadulterated re publicanism —such measures as will best answer the ends of our free government, and of our State’s interest;—such men as will “defend the rights of the People, the Sovereignty of the States, and the Constitutional authority of the Union against all encroachments.” It. shall be my studious endeavor to render the Intelligencer an Agricultural and Mercantile ve hicle: to effect it, 1 shall hasten to possess my self of all the necessary materials which these ample subjects furnish, to unfold every species of information which will be thought to instruct, to interest, and to please. It is believed, that the mutual conjunction of interest, between the Merchant and Planter, cannot fail to render ac ceptable to one, whatever may benefit the other. My efforts shall be used to procure the earliest and most useful mercantile information, and lav it before the public; and it will be my desire to go into Rural Affairs, and garner the choicest and best offerings for my Agricultural readers.
