PQET8.C0JUXER, Prom the Baltimore Telegraph. By one ox. me Wimi V.of mnrrv trme of Veat When ev'ry bard attunes his powers the full mind flows free d. clear, And fancy like the season A female object caught my view, A form more fair is seldom seen. Her roving eyes were large and blue, Her robes were of a pleasant green.

And when I gaz'd her truant eyes, Wandered at large o'er grove hill now sought me eariu, now reuu skies, And was not for a moment still. Bay- mortal, with that sullen brow, She cried, why dost thou pine and mopej I come to cheer thy spirits Know'st thou not me my name HOPE. i 'Axose-Dusn in her nana sne Dore, With buds verdant foliage crown'd Hut she had pluck'd it long before Flora had spread her honour round. Thrice did she wave it high in air, She cried, momi see my power I look'd and not a bud was there, The bush was all in sudden flower. Take this she cries, and straight Bh 1 trips A rose, the darling of my eyes I caught it pressed it to my lips, Then in my bosom wore the prize.

She spoke, and in a moment fled, And vanish'd like the passing smoke; I look'd and all the leaves were dead, And with a eigh of sorrow woke. From the Am. Daily Advertiser. Give me neither poverty, nor rich-es, lest I be full and deny thee; or lest I be poor and steal." Frov. xxx.

8th oth versci. Well would it be for mankind, if they would attend to the holy breathings of that book, well called the Bible, or th'e book, in preference to ill books it has taught us that Cod is the God of Peace, and that he delighteth not in carnage, blood And murder. After a dark night of restrictions and war, we now have peace. The world is at peace 1 the ruthless arm af wir. no lonapr overturns tli e-.

palace, or sweeps away the cottage with fire and sword. But my readers, it becomes us to avoid extremes; it behoves us to act with prudence. Before the dark shades, which, with heavy gloom covered the American as neutrals, extended our commerce over every sea, to almost every portEurope, convulsed to its very centre, had not the means of trade America, then neutral, rose fast, and wealth poured in upon us. Let not the return of peace induce either as individuals or a nation, to expect the same glittering scene but, with Agur, let us say, Remove far from us, Vanity and Lies give us neither poverty nor riches, lest We be full and deny thee, and say who is the Lord or lest we be poor and steal, and take the name of our God in vain. Mediocrity is the best for both national and individual happiness.

The fact is, we now cannot with reason, count on any thing else the nations of Europe released from the fangs of despotism the ha-1 voc of war, will turn their attention to commerce, and pursue such measures as will best comport with water, will find its own level, and he who foolishly ventures into the tempestuous ocean of commerce, without having prudence for1 his rm rttrtt nA a Ainr ai fits J-ti rl vvi'i sstt i HivMivwinj iui ins jjvib star, will most probably be wrecked on the breakers or disappointment, founder in the gulph of intemperance, or fall a victim to the evil which the preacher prays against, v. become poor and steal." Nothing is more natural to the heart' of man, than pride or false ambition it is displayed in infant years, and in manhood ripens into fruit, bitter to the taste; or like the. apples of ashes, on the lake where Sodom once stood, appear-aoce without reality, it vanishes with a touch it crumbles intodust, and the haughty heart which che-7 rished it, breaks to mend no more. Let us seriously reflect now, it may be too 'ate at a future day. lVe must not.

we cannot expect to indulge ourselves or our families. in former foolish extravagance. Aly readers, yon must believe in su. perintending, Providence you have Jately tasteij tne miseries ot war, but thank the 3od or mercies, that you have, not been 'obliged as Eu- td drink the bitter cup to the last What was the procur. 2M I.f.
