MISCELLANY.

ORIGINAL. ox Friendship. Ah what's this life with all its joy, Its blandishments below? And what this world with all its loyl, But splendid scenei of woe? And lore and hop with all their imilei, That gild the distant vlW, Are snares and lutes and burnish'd wiles That mock as we pursue. HanUftt briars and thorns enfwina The couch where beauty sleeps; And sfrpents rile infest the shrine Where Uymeo wakes and weeps. But friendship, heavenly plant, it charms Vhd other charms betray, In heaven it glows, oo earth it warms, And blooms without decay. STAXZA . Oh tell roe not my soul is sad, Oh say not that my brain is mad, Say not roy mind is always clad In sullen gloom! ts there a philanthropic eye, Can coldly view without a sigh, Life's fairest flowers droop and die, Sink in the tomb? Our life is but a fevered dream, A transient evanescent beam, That swiftly elides into the stream Of dread eternity Our dearest ties are. rent in twain, Our hopes are wrapt in death's domaiD, Alas! what more ran we sustain Sioce all are lost? No friends remain, To cheer infirmity. JVe seen the lovely bloomingr boy, His widowed mother's onlv joy, While blest with him no ills annoy Hope's geneal rav; A chillin frost has nipt the flower, (TU fairest one in Edena hower.) It bloomed, it blossomed for an hour, But ahf the fell destroyer's power cvept it away. Ire seen the lore inspiring maid By hellish artifice betrayed; I've seen her charms her beauties fade Alas too soon! So Ml Cordelia, yoimef and E00(J Stunt? by the fiend Ingratitude! Her aun bad set in solitude Ere life's fair noon. Companions of my yoothful days, Who basked in hope's unclouded rays, Sought happiness in folly's maze, Where are they now? I'll to the monumental stone. Peruse their fate, and mark my ownThere make mv plaint to whom alone The angels bow. EDWIN. BATTLE O F J"E W-OR L EAJS .

Hilled his tittle field with hi own hands , and was

proud of tilling it with superior industry and skill; whilst bis lady, if lady she might be called, made it her chief ambition to be an excellent house wife. While this state of things lasted, and a very long time it did last, the Romans were eager enough to get themselves wives. They married generally, and they married young; for they thought and well they might, that who so found a wife, found a good thing a real helpmate as well as a dear and faithful companion And what is singularly remarkable if (rue, it is recorded by a Roman historian, that there had not been known, in the city of Rome, a single instance, of divorcement durmg the whole space of 500 years; though the law had put it in the power of the husband to repu diate his wife almost at pleasure Unfortunate for the Roman republic, and more especially for the femile part of it. a great and splendid event quite changed the morals, the taste, the habits, and the whole of the country Une hundred and ninety years be fore the christian era, the Romans for tha first time, entered into AsU with an army, which under Scipio defeated and conquered Antiochus the Greek King of Syra: and from thence they brought home such a taste for the luxu ries of the Eist, as promoted and hastened the ruin of their commonwealth: and in noway more directly, than by a practical forbiddance of marriage. The Roman woman once sa plaiu, frugal and industrious, became eiinnoored cu the costly finery that was brought from the East. One of them named Lulli pauhn, wh n dressed in all her j-wels, is said to have worn to the value of three hundred and thirty-two thousand pounds sterling. And though lbs was the most extraordinary instance of the time, yet it is reasonable to suppose that, of the rest of the. ladies every one strove to get as near the top of the fashion as she could; and that with all the females who thought any thing of themselves, the rage was to be fine and fashionable. This new order of things while it precipitated the republic into the abyss of ruin brought marriage almost into disuse; insomuch that Augustus, the first Roman Emperor finding among the men a general disinclination to marry, was fain to pass severe penal laws, to force them as it were into the bonds of matrimony. Rut it was all to little purpose. Despot and tyrant as he was, he found it impossible to compel the bachelors to mrry, as Peter the first, long eiace did, to compel the Ilussuns to shave off their beards Was it owinpr to the licentiousness of the men: Lonsiderabiy it was, no doubt: but not altogether. It was partly owinpj to tlieiri prudence. A Roman bachelor naturally enough would commune with hinisell thus; "Ihese ex travagant fliris of whos attire a s:ngle article co9ts more thn one of them would earn in her! whole life time, are fit only for show. I like right wel! to be in iheir company at routs and. assemblies but the gods savo me from an union with any ofihemlif I nurry, unle-s she bring me a fortune wiih her she will quickly devour

One would suppose there could be no man in our country, (where newspapers are so plenty) so ignorant; yet an occur rence took place, a lew days ago in Mr. Lane's store in this borough which goes some length in justifying the belief, that we have at least one man who is a match for the other. 'Tis this: Two gentlemen of different notions as respects the two candidates for the next presidency enquired of a countryman which he was for, Jackson or Adam?? The man for a

moment hesitated to reply at length he!

said, "he thought he had heard ot Jackson; but as for Adams he did not know there ever was such a man." bursting a Hogshead. t is justly affirm ed by some writers on natural philoso phy, that a certain quantity of water, however small, may be rendered capa hie of exerting a force equal to Any as signable one, by increasing the height of the column and diminishing the base on which it presses. Dr. Goldsmith observes, that he has seen a strong hogsbead split in this manner. A small but strong tube of tin, twenty feet high, was inserted in the bung-hole of the hogshead. Water was then poured into the tube till the hogshead was filled, and the water had reached within a foot of the top of the tin tube. By the pressure of this column of water, the hogshead burst with incredible force, and the water was scattered in every direction. Dreams. To dream, and to remember your dream, is a forerunner that you were not awake nor very sound asleep, when you dreamed. To tell your dreams, prognosticates that you might be better employed. Fr a young lady to dream, very particularly of ai.y cerrain young gentleman joretels that she purchased her last flat to attract his attention. To dream of happiness shows that you will probably be disappointed when you awake. Signs. To hear a death-watch, denotes that there is a little insect near you. To see strange lights is a sign that there is something to cause them, or that your head is disordered. To see an apparition or to be bewitched, is an incontesiible evidence that you are lacking in common sense. MAXIMS OFJIJVOLD BACHELOR.
