... A poet’s hand and prophet’s fire,
Struck the wild warhlings of hi i lyre.”
j'\ 1)1:1 Ike Albany Argue. •
If the fidelity of the beautiful and touching
lines of our correspondent “Viator,’ shall recall,
in the minds of some ol our readers the bitterness
of deprivation, it presents also, in no unattractive
guise, the accompaniments by which it was tem
pered and relievo.!.
THE DYING BOY.
Tt must be sweet, tu childhood to give back
The spirit to it? Maker ; < re the. heart
lias grown familiar with the paths at sin, •
And Sawn —to garner up its hitter fruits —
1 knew a boy, whose infant feet had trod
Upon the blossoms of some seven springs, .
And when the eighth came round and called
him out
T. re el in its light, he turned away,
And sought his chamber to iic down and die,
' l’was night —he summoned his accustomed
friends,
And, on this wise, bestowciLiiis last bequest.
“Mother—l’m dying now !
There’s a deep su.’ocatioh in tny breast,
As if some heavy hand my bosom pressed ;
And on my brow.
I feel the cold sweat stand :
My lips grow dry and tremulous, and my
breath
•Comesfeebly up. Ob, toll me, is this death 1
Mother, your harm—
' Here—lay it on tny wrist,
And place the other thus beneath my head,
And ; av, sweet mother, say, when J am dead
ishail Ibo missed 1
Never beside your knee,
Shall 1 kucol down again to pray,
'Nor with the morning wake, and sing-thelay
You taught me.
Oh, at the time of prayer,
When you look round, and see a vacant sent,
You will m t wait then for-my coming feet—
You’ll miss me •there !
Father I’m going home !
To the good home you spake oi, tli.it ldest land ;
"Where itie one bright summer always, and
Storms do not come.
1 must be happy then.
Tram pain and death you say I shall be free,
That sickness never cullthere, and we #
Shull mecta^-un!
Brother—the little spot
1 used to call my garden, where long hours
V.'o’vo stayed to watch the budding things and
flowers, .
Forget it not!
Plant there some Lex or pine, .
Something that lives iti winter, and will be
A verdant offering to my memory,
And call it mine!
‘•Sister —my young rose tree —
apiiat all the spring ha* been my pleasant tare,
.lust putting forth its leaves so green and fair,
I give to thee.
And when its roses bloom—
J thall .>e gone away, my shortlife done;
But will you not bestow a single one
Up n tny tonib 1”
“Now mother, sing the time
You sang last night;l’m weary, and jjpustsleep
Who was it that called my name ! Nay, do not
weep,
You’ll ail come soon!”
Morning spread over earth her rosy wings
And that meek sufferer, cold, and ivory pule,
Ijii'’ on liis couch asleep. ’1 lie gentle air
Caine through the window, heightened with
'fhe savoury odours of the curly spring;
He breathed it not, the laugh of passers by,
3ar*.d, like a discord in some mournful tune, j
But worried not his slumbers. He was dead.

THE FALL OF WARSAW.
Mourn, O mourn for Poland,
Tbe homo of the fearless brave,
For her patriot hearts all tried and true,
That with freedom have found a grave.
Mourn for hex high and ancient name,
The great and proud \\ arsaw ;
Whore the Russian's shout of triumph rings,
And the Cossack’s dread huzza.
Mourn for heV kingly palaces,
In smoking ruins laid ;
For the blood of her haughty high-born sons,
Staining the ruffian's blade.
Mourn for her helpless innocents,
Her beautiful and fair; I
For her villages sacked, and her harvest fields
By tbe hand of the Russ laid bare.
Mourn for her many fatherless,
W hose loud and lonely avail,
the cry of the widow’s woe is borne
On the wings of the rising gale.
Mourn for her mighty fallen,
And her weapons of war cast low ;
Vet the rights of the people trampled on
By their proud Muscovite foe.
Mourn for the land made desolato,
By sickness, sword and (lame ;
Itor the fate of a brave nation that bring*
A curse o.v die despot's name.

And ijitivscatter’d bones which bleach upon

Newxjtaprr Borrowers. — Header, if you
borrowed this paper, send it right back—as!
you may feel cheap after you have finished
this paragraph.
If -the tailor senda a new coat home to you,
would you think rour neighbor fair in nis re
quest for the first use of it?
If the halter leaves you a ho! loaf, should
you like to lend it to your neighbor, and have
it returned cold with the corners gnawed of?
If tiie penny post leaves a letter on your
counter, should think it right in your neighbor
to seize it, before you had time to read it, to
tally a load of potatoes on it, and thanß you
for the use of it sonic hours after, if he should
not be so unfortunate auto lose it ?
If these things are not right—then it is no!
right to borrow a newspaper on the day when
it is published.
Me have received a request from one ol
our subscribers to discontinue his paper for
the present, for no other reason than that ito is
plagued by borrowers. We presume that they
are not such persons as lie can-ver s .veil deny
the use of the paper. So it is with you, bar
rower, whoever your are ! The person who

Rejection of tin Hereditary Peerage in j
France.
i he packet ship Sully, at New York, from
Havre, brings Paris papers to the Pith and
Havre to the 13th October, both inclusive.
()ur correspondents of the New York Courier
and Mercantile Advertiser have transmitted
us proof-slips, from which we make the high
ly interesting extracts which follow:
The most important information is the*an
nouncement that the Reform Bill was reject
ep, sdris eereinonic, in the British House of
Louis at lialt past 0 oclojk the morn
ing outlie Bth of October, by a majority of
11. Galignani’s Paris Messenger of the 10th
Oct. thus announces the event. “The in
teresting struggle in the British House of
Leers terminated, us we were yesterday ena
bled, in a brief circular, to announce to reed
tiers in Paris and its vicinity,-in the rejec
tion o; the Reform Bill, by a majority of
forty-one ! A telegraph Despatch acquain
ting'Government with this important event,
reached the Foreign Office yester-day morn
ing, and at a lute hour last night we received
by Extraordinary Express from our London
Correspondent an abstract of the proceedings
in the Lords down to half past fio’cloek on
Saturday morning, when the division took
place. Lords VVynford, Eldon, Lyndhurst,
Tenerdon, the Archihishop of Canterbury,
the Duke of Gloucester, and Lords Harewood
and Barham opposed tho Bill, which was sup
ported by the laird Chancellor, laird Hol
land, the Duke of Sussex, and Lord Hastings.
Earl Grey replied at great length, and in con
clusion declared that he had considered lie
had only done his duty in proposing a meas
ure that he deemed essential to the tranquili
ty of the country. The rejection of the Bill
would disseminate discontent and dissatisfac
tion; but he would not abandon the king as
long as there was any chance or hope of his
being useful to the Sovereign and the coun
try. —[Immense cheering.]
The Bar was then cleared for a division,
when there appeared :
Contents 198
Proxies 30 138
Non Contents 150
Proxies 40 109
Majority against Ministers 4]
On the result ol - the division being an
nounced it was received in profound si
lence-
in London on Friday the 7th October, at
4o’c!ock, P. M. Consols for account closed at
80 7-8 buyers. Consols fell on the 9th 1 per
cent. Many rumors were afloat in the citv,
as to the future acts of the ministers. A
neiV ministry with the Duke of Richmond at
its head was spoken of. Another rumor pre
vailed that the King had determined to pro
rogue Parliament, and create new Peers from
the oldest sons of Peers favorable to the
Bill.
A Postscript to the Havre Journal of the
11 th says: A courier extraordinary has just
arrived from London, from whom we learn,
that just as he left the city great cflcrvescece
manifested itself among the people, that seri
ous troubles were on the point of breaking
out and that in order to protect himself from
an attack the Duke of Wellington had barri
cadcd his (louse.
Accounts from Warsaw are to the 27th
Sept. The Russians entered Alodlin on the
24th. A private letter from Berlin dated 2d
Oct. states that the remainder of the Polish
army had croscd the Prussian frontiers on
29th Sept, and laid down their arms. Field
Marshal Prince Pasdewiteh Wcrsawski, is
appointed Governor General of the Kingdom
of Poland, who on the 26th Sept, issued his
proclamation. A manifesto dated St. Po
tersburgh, -Sept. 26th, and sighed by the Em
peror, has appeared, which establishes a pro
visional government in Poland, consistin';- of
a President and four members. Poland is no
longer a nt*Go , v sire is a vae?a! to the Autoc-i
rat—the blood winch sue Ims poured forth in
rivers, in the sacred cause of liberty and
home, has availed not—every friend of hero
ism and patriotism—every friend of iiuniai.itv
must mourn over the fate of Poland,brav* but
unfortunate Poland—her name i.-, blotted from
the map of Nations.
From Belgium we learn, that the armistice
between that country and Holland, which ex
pired on the 18th October, was further pro
longed fo the 25th Oetob, r. In the Belgian
Chamber of Representatives, after a warm
discussion, a proposition to inquire into the
causes oi me late d< feat of the Belgians
troops was carried. On the same dayt the
Senate adopted a law, respecting the domicil

i The accounts of the Cholera at Vienna, in

I the convocation of a National Assembly, the
j 1 lections for which were occupying the atten
i lion ol the wholecountry.
Sonia Member of the opposition, anticipa
ting the numerical triumph of his party, this
morning, called to this Minister to resign, and
the challenge produced an answer u ”ch is
the onion oi" complete success. The Minis
ter will not resign, a . I the Opposition must
be beaten. We say must be beaten—for, on
ly let the same Bill lie introduced, and see if
the people of this country do not rally round
the King and bis Ministers in a way that siiail
set a mark upon the present Opposition, by
which it shall be known from all the Opposi
tions that ever existed in England— Herald.
The confidence which the monied people
not unjustly feel in the King and his Minis'-
tors is shown by the fact that there was but a
slight variation in the Funds, this morning on
the news of the' Lords division. The confi
dence of the people will be justified. The
King will be firm. Tne country will be sa

Paris, Oct. 11, 1831.—Me.arc happy to
learn both bv the London Journals of Satur
day, which reached us yesterday bv Express,
ami the account of our private correspondent,
dated eight in the evening, that notwithstan
ding the great excitement which prevailed
in consequence of the rejection of the -real
measure of Reform, no approach to disorder
had been manifested. (for correspondent
states that Ministers will take no decided step
until Lord Ebrifigton’s motion is disposed of
on Monday in the Commons. In the in un
tune a compromise between the supporters ol
tiic Bill and the moderate Reformers is spo
ken of with some confidence. . Various ru
mours of partial changes in the Ministry are
also mentioned, but are generally disbelieved.
A speck of war. —lt is positively stated by
the Journal dc Flanders, (a paper published a't
Ghent) that the Swvdisli Consul at Antwerp
has received orders from his Government not
to pass any act which might indicate an ac
knowledgement of King Leopold by King
Charles John. It is well known that the
Swedish Monarch is greatly under the influ
ence of the Russian Gobi at ?.

The Augsburgli Gazette lias the following
intelligence dated Vienna, the Ist inst: “By
letters from Cracow of the 27th*ult. we learii
that a division of the corps of Rudiger has
t nteted the territory of tlie Free State of
Cracow, whither the troops of the Polish gen

movement, tli* latter entirely dispersed them
selves, ami tied in all directions. General’s
Iloayski and Kaminski passed over into Ga

According to accounts received to day from
Brunn tire cholera has made its appearance in
that town. The total number of persons at
tacked by the disease at Vienna up to yester
day was 1360, of whom fi l l died. The same
paper also s ates, in a letter from Berlin of
the 30th ult. that remains of the Polish army
of Block, together with the members of the
Government, who would not make their sub
jection to the Emperor had arrived at Stras
burgh, a Prussian town on the Polish fron
tiers, when they laid down their arms.
Extract of a private letter from Warsaw,
dated the 20th ult—“ This capital presents
the appearance ol one vast bivouac—advan
ced posts and patrols are found at every cor
ner. The Russians have denounced to the
Police several thousands of persons who have
been zealous in the national cause. Since
the Bth inst. the day on which it resumed its
functions, the police has been constantly em
ployed in making arrests; and in the first
two days of the Restoration, upwards of 1006
persons of all ages and classes were thrown
into prison and confined the worst of
malefactors. Since that period, 256 men
shut up in one of the courts of the prison,
were fired upon for nearly two hours in suc
cession, under pretence of a revolt of the
malefactors, though not less than four-fifths
were confined on .suspicion of political offen
ces. There arc now upwards of 15d£) in

The Berlin Slate Gazette communicates:
the following intelligence, dated Frontiers of (
Poland, Sept. 27. “ We have this moment re

the territory. The commander of the- regi

troyed the bridge on tlic Vistula near that
town. In the mean while, the Russian com
mander remained with Ins detachment of

To tlic Senate and House :
'l’lle insecure condition of the Arsenal at
this place, having attracted my notice, I
feel it my duty to invite the immediate" atte.n
.tion of the Legislature to the subject.
The arms ami ammunition in the Arsenal
shall not only be safely preserved in good
oruer for any -mergenev which may occur,
hut the circumstances in which tve are placed
as a community, imperiously, demand the
Utmost ceri mty that these munitions of war,
should never lie used for the destruction of
those lor whose defence they were provided.
The windows of the Arsenal are closed by
slight shutters which might be demolished iii
a few minutes : they ought to have iron de
fence-, either bars or streets, strongly fixed.
The door at the north end is no stronger
than the wnpiow shutters : the doois at the
south side are somewhat stronger, but should
be strengthen u with iron, and secured by
strong bars witflui* iu addition to the lock
and small bolts.
•Tiig windows of Lie upper stories an
weaker than lliosexifthc lower;- thej coulfl
be easily assailed and entered by ladders.
l'he whole should lie so strong that an as
sault would not be able to force it, with
out much noific and delay, affording an oppoi-
Uinity of gathering such force as could be as
sembled lor its defence.
At nigni it should be under the care of
vigilant centincls, regularly relieved. These
suggestions are deemed sufficient to recom
mciid this subject to that share of legislation
consider* tion,which its impprtat.ee deuiauds.
