And childhood's fragile image Thus fearfu'ly enshrined, Survive the proud memorials reared By conquerors of mankin J ! Babe! wert thou calmly slumbering Upon thy mother'! bieast, When suddcly the fiery tomb Shut round each gentle guest! A strange dark fate overtook you, Fair babe and 'oving heart! Oae moment of a thousand pngs Vet belter than to pari! Haply, of that fond bosom Ob hes here impresed, Tbou wert the only treasure, child! Whereon a hope might ret. Perchance all vainly lavished Its other Icve had been, And where it trusted, nought remained But thoras whereon to lean! Far belter then to perish, Thy form within its clap, Than Li e and lose thee, precious one! From that impassioned grasp! Ob! couM pass all relics Left by the pomp of olJ, To gaze on this rude monument, Cast in Affections iuo'jIU! Love, humau Love! what art thoi! Toy print ujon the dust Oufhvfs the cities of renown, Wherein the mighty trust! Immortal, oh! immortal Thu art, whose earthly glow Halb given these ashes holiness It must, it mut h so!

Tlurins a s.nele week nearly one thousand persons have arrived at New-York from Jiurope, as steerage passenger?! Large numbers have also arrived at other ports, making in ail, probably, not less than two thousand. I he largest oorlion are from lireat Britain and Lelaud: but con-iderable numbers from Germany and Switzer land. In addition to this, a very larse number of the same class of emigrants, are constantly coming into the United States from Canada, Nova Scolia, and other place. Many of them, though not of the upper class of society, arc yet pos sessed of some property. Lat. intei. From the FTestern Telegraph and Hamilton Ohio Advertiser of Nov. 16. Phenomenon. On Monday last, a very strange appearance took place in the atmosphere. In the early part of the morning, the ainoke was perceived settling near the earth, and in many places, in the low ground, there was by ten o'clock, fcuch an accumulation of it as to excite attention; it was, consequently, remarked by some that the atmosphere was becoming very light, aud we should soon have a fall of rain. .Ibout tke same hour thuuder was heard, at a distance, towards the west, and there was the appearance of a great cloud gath criug in that direction, which spread itself over the whole horizon in a few minutes, aud the day beenme so dark, that it was difficult to see to read or write. During the continuance of this darkness, which was perhaps about 30 minutes, there was the appearance of a great storm and rain. Only a small quantity of rain, however, felt, aud the wind did not blow with much force, but the thunder was cop,, siderable for this season of the year. Query had uot electricity a considerable agency in producing these appearances? An establishment, it is said is going into operation in Bloomfield N. J. for printing on woollen cloth, in imitation of the common casemere shawls. -The colors are said to be as handsome as any of theim ported. P. Jlejlector. Philadelphia Sep 29 W have received several numbers of the Mexican anti-liberal newspapers, in which the most unfriendly and libellous insinuations are made against Mr. Poinsett, a the sup posed ally or patron of the. liberal party. They are gives; and it is intimated that he and his associate, bad a particular understanding wilh the Governor of Cuba and the Spanish squadron of Laborde, with a view to rvestahlih the domtnior f Ferdinand the Seventh, ol Spain! These allegations are in consonance with the preposterous manifesto of the Vera Cruz legislature, and sprung from the same spirit and design. The monarchial and consolidation parties have selected the represenatative of our federal republic as aa object of unceasing and malignant hostility; be being deemed the natural advocate and supporter of the present institutions of Mexico. They attribute to him the failure of their attempt to overthrow the federal system of Union and plunge tbtco'tntrv iato civil war. There seems to be an effort throughout Spanish America to disturb the existing political order; every where something. like a systematic movement to promote the establishment of monarchies. Nat. Gaz. Blouwjleld III. Oct. 3. Peace on ouk Borders.

The Indians that had committed the murders upon our citizens, were surrendered, to be dealt with according to law; and a preliminary treaty was agreed upon, to the followiug purport; that the Indians are not to molest our citizeus in any manner, ou their passage to and from the Mines; aud the miners are not to be disturbed in their i'rcludius the disputed right of territory, to far as digging m .1 1 L II bad been commeuceii, uu uu uon ground to be opened.

The provisional government of Greece have passed votes of thanks to the President of the United Statos, the King of Batavia, and Mr. Eynard for the great in'erest taken by them in the affairs of suffering Greece. Western Register From the J'lio7ia! Journal. Mr. Andrew i-iie wart, ns able and as honest a Rrp,y",.:d':'ea f.-n P"?risyl' vania, as any of the Delegation to Con gress from that state, has been denounced by the Opposition for his consisteot and unalterable attachment to the interests of the Domestic Manufactures tnd the system of Internal Improvements in favor of which policy Pennsylvania herself stands pledged. He has ably vindicated himself against this attack, in an address which we fitid in the Pennsylvania Demucrat of (he 10th inst. In this address he has entrenched him elf behind the measures of the present administration which is the true ground to be taken; aud has-satisfacto i ily shown that as these measures are in harmony with the interests and express d feelings of his constituents, and of the whole St;te, he could only have justly subjected himself to the charge f inconsistency or unfaithfulness, if he had arrayed himself on the side ol those by whom they urn opposed. Mr. Stewart sagests to his constituents to refrain from lending their coun cuaitce to thse who advocate General Jackson, until i is ascertained whether ihe character ot his policy, should he be elected, will conform (o that which is pursued by the present Ami; i-tration or whether it will be made to suit the conceptions Sc constructions of the Vir giiiia school. His language on this point we extract, as containing the views of an honest aud enlightened judgment; and as such, we commend them to the attention of our readers: 'VVhen I see n war waged against measures both local and general, of vital impor'ance to the welfare of my country and constituents, and when I see design formed attempts made by southern men to use General Jackson as the instrument by which they expect to accomplish the overthrow and destruction of this measure, 1 feel myself called upon by every principle of pat riotism to pause and suspend mv judgment until it is ascertained whethei he will consent or refuse to ler.d his name and influence to this party, for these purposes. A'entrtility I know is not the popular course ; it will subject me to the denunciation of some who preach republicanism, yet practise proscription: who iove liberty of ttought and action themselves, yet woull deny it to others; still it is the course thich, for the present, a strong sense of pihlic duty requires me to puisue, and vhen personal popularity is placed in die scale, and the public interest in the aher I trust I shall never hesitate as t4ihe course to be adopted. My poliiial elevation or downfall is a matter of nojmportance to the pub lie, but the succts or downfall of these measures is a miter of the utmost con'

to the whole country, and" every

cern man in it."
