Still, wlnlo wo acquiesce in the dis-pensation which robbed our country of many a dlant no dury requires u-i to smotlier our rercs, or refrain from expression, of the deepen ouow ot ouv loss. Who indeed can i drain that, while out cnunliy th Utl looking anxiously, day niter day, for the teturn of the you'hful Bukely, who had twice conquered his enemy, or expiring to hear of new triumph, he a ml his gallant companions were, probably, too certainly, floating breathless on the surface of the wave, or buried its bottom' bosom.

Though he will never return to remind us of his services, let ih not forget to pay the debt oi grati-tndetohis memory, by cherishing his fam-, and lecordiiiR ins achievements in u. Thee something indescn- bbly solemn and iiffecVwR to our minds, in the idea ol bund tods of men thus per-id-ine, out of the reach of awy human help, with nothing in sight but their strug-rline companions, the weltering ocean, and the 'angry ikiesand nothing within hearing bnt the to.uingof the winds and waves, and the ciios of men calling upon those who cannot bear, or who cannot relieve. The mind shrinks from this one lv, dreary, deflate, and unknown calam. Uy of which nothing is certain, but the conviction that there is now hardly a hope that it has not happened. A SAILOIVS ELEGY, am '7 I' Ant Oh' run IVASV, witns in some illuHtiious fight, Sfout wan lore yield at lute's rude call, TIi'pv fall, like s.hootinK stats at, night, And bih'htcn as they fall.

A thoui.md tongues their deeds telate, And with the story never tire, A countt mourns their noblv, bite, And ladies weep and men admiic. But dreary is the fate of those I mourn, in this rough sailor sttata, Who pciishM mortal knows, Ami peiibh'daUiu vain Wl.oin our country cannot tell, How Bi.akklky brought therai erotj low, An 1 twice triumphantly did qnell The prowobs of a valiant loc Who has not heard of his brave men, All valiant hearts of veiling gold, Whobtav'd the lion in his den, And turn'd his hot bhud into cold Who has not wish'd that they were hete, EscMp'd the ocean's perils rude, To share our countty's welcome cheer, And leap a nation' gratitude it they will novet oemcagun To claim the welcome of their home Aflfctfion for them in vain Too surely they will never come. Far distant from their native land, They perwh'd in the yawning deep, tVhere there was none stretch a hand, And none their fate to No eat their dreary-drowning ciy, Heard o'er the desert wave Their dying struggle met no eye, Ho ftiwidly aid to save. Ancl loh'ti they pcmh'd none can tell, whtic the'r bones are laid The spot AlTc'tion loves so well, N-) mourner's sfep will uead. tctvUr friend will ever go To i-eeV thf spot where they abide, Nor child, ot v.idow, full of wt, rJeU how, and when, and whfie they died.

Alas they no grave, i ni'i'tud to nun iluj ppt 'I ney mur.Moi in the ep, deep wave Ju.sL whotf itiuattcMi, not. They perishM fir away fioui home, And iMv will weep ihte sailors hold, Eoi (r (I't'laln newb shall come, Qui fehngi will cold. Ty fiiov; degrees hopp will expire, And when the aim -us ie'linps o'er, Stale MfOfor will qntm.L her iiie, And or ior bo no mow. Save where some tie and widow'd one, 15y icf, idee cro'is'd, Shall dint'; to oi, dear hope alone, And hope, thmia hope woeloH.
