THE SEA. The Sea the Sea the open Sea! The blue, ihc fresh, the ever free! Without u mark, without a hound, It runneth the earth's wide regions round; It plays with the clouds it mocks the skies Or, like a cradled creature lies! I'm on the sea! I'm on the sea! I am where I would ever be; With the blue above, and the blue below, And silence whercsoe'er I go If a storm should come and awake the deep, What matter, it still shall ride and sleep. I love Oh! how I love to ride On the fierce foaming bursting tide, When every mad wave drowns the moon. Or whistles aloft his tempest tune, And tells how goeth the world below, And why the sou-west blasts do blow. I never was on the dull tame shore, But 1 loved the great sea mote and mora; And backwards flew to billowy breast, Like a bird that sceketh its mother's nest; And a mother she was and is to me; Tor I w as born on the open sea! The waves were whit?, and red the morn, In the noisy hour when 1 was born; And the whale it whistled, the porpoise rolled, And the dolphins bared their blocks of gold; And never was heard such outcry wild, As welcomed to life the ocean-child. I have lived, since then, in calm and strife, Full fllty summers a rover's life, Wi;h wealth to spend, and a power to range, Bat never have sought nor sighed for change; And Dca'h, whenever he comes to me, Shall come on l'i wild unbounded sea!
but, until the facts are fully ascertained by a regu-1
ar investigation, we do not consider it our duty to
mention it. 1 he circumstances were as loiiows: A poor woman, with two children, was travelling to
Springfield, when night overtook her, just as s-he
reached the above named house, where she uppliert for lodgings until morning, which request was leadily granted. A short time after, u gentleman on
horseback artved, and likewise asked permission to slay all night. After supper, the lady was showed
to her chamber, where, being wearied with travel,
she soon fell asleep. She was aroused in the night
by a noise which she thought ie.embled a person
strangling, and immediately afters-he imagined that she heard blood running on the floor, lier terror
was great, doubly increased when she heard some
one in the adjoining room ask "What shall we do
with the old lady? 1 "Murder her to be sure, 1 replied the second voice. "But the children?-" inqui
red the first sneaker, "it will be hard to kill them."
'Well, then, said the second, "we will ascertain if
she is asleep, and if so we will let her go in the morning, but if not, she must die." The ladv had suffi
cient fortitude and presence of mind to appear to the
murderers, when they entered her room, to be in a sound sleep. In the morning, ihey gave her her breakfast, and suffered her to depuil with her chil
dren. She had not gone far until she met a man on foot, who stopped her and inquired wheic she had stayed the previous night? She icplied, at the first house. What kind ol 'people live iheie? asked the man. They were very kind and good to me, she replied. The sti anger passed on, and she had not
joy! Peace and order are restored; the wild spirit
of sedition and rebellion has been quenched forever
Wetherall is the Saviour of Canada! "P. S. In our last we had entirely forgotten to mention that Brown, Papiueau, and all the leaders of the unfortunate 'great majority of the People,' have ingloriously fled to Vermont to escape the
punishment of hanging, which their own party was bent upon indicting. Our only regret is, that the
tlii t ty or forty persons, confined in dungeons on the ehare of tieuson, are the only ones who can now
b,; executed on the gallows. 'Jod save ihe Queen!
This, judging from the tone and temper of the 'ale Canadian papers, must be near the language
which will be used; and this-, or something like it, ! will be echoed and le-cchoed in American papers and by American Editors, some of whom dare call themselves Whigs! On this point I ha idly wish to use the language which, in justice, belongs to the subject; 1 will not say their professions of Whig doc

Patriots no! I mean to the patriotic. Whigs ol Canada? That and whig is the right term the only one truly significant of their feelings, of their in
tentions, oj their determinations. A truce to tins, however. As a friend of Canadian liberty I cannot object, if the Tories represent their opponents to be
dispersed and defeated; if they believe it true, they will be led to relax their vigilance. Icanassute you, however that the pattiot Whigs are determined upon organization and icsistnnee; nor will the
