Indiana Palladium, Volume 7, Number 14, Lawrenceburg, Dearborn County, 9 April 1831 — Page 4

Written for the Palladium. Sacred to the memory of the immortal Warriors, who fell in the arms of glory at Tippecanoe, While memory bleeds to pause o'er human wo, And turns to where the crimson rivers i ;w . From dying patriots' pure and noble veins. So long shall tears bedew the blood-stained . plains; Where brave and gallant Harrison gave command To martial heroes, 'gainst the furious band Of ruthless fiends, tho1 clad in men-like form. Where hideous yells awA'd the battle's storm : Infuriate demons rode on leaden wings, Death darted venom from a thous'ind stings ! Far roll the echcC3 of that death ful ulght, When the faint stars grew fainter at the sight Of fiery ruin, poured in burning show'rs, llul'd by ti.e magic of infernal poiv'rs; J'ame's brilliant star arose o'er the heroes brave, And shone with glory on their gloomy grave. Cat Oh ! those thunders, rolling dark and drear, Have waked full many a fiery flowing tear, Of weeping friends, whose troubled aching hearts

Alone can tell how keen were sorrow's darts; And who don't weep, to think sweet freedom fair, Should lose tuoh son3 as fell in glory there ? Parental ties that awful scene did sever, Love's tide was paned into streams forever, Till beauty's germs rise g orious from the tomb It fiow'ry gardens endlessly to bloom : Full many a mother has in silence wept O'er sens, whose dust has there unconscious slept; Full many a father's sighs have warm'd the air, Full many an orphan pin'd in chill despair, Full many a sister mourn'd o'er brother lost: And Oh ! how many tears that scene has cost. Eut Ah1,! how swell the sounds of sorrow's moans, To think how long those heroes' bleeching bones, Expos'd to tempests rude, of wintry skies, And savagi gaze of lrdian's flashing eyes; The wolf long howl'd near Honour's hallow'd head, And screaming panthers played o'er, virtue's bed, driving snows, the rat'iing hail were The poured Upon the sacred dust our lard ador'd. But cease ye hollow winds io sigh around That blood-stained, yet that ever-haliow'd ground! And friends, O ! loving friends, now cease to weep, Those heroes' bones in peace now quiet sleep ;. ICor sleeps their fame: green laurels o'er them And patriots proudly point to Daviess' grave; lirave Owen's rrernory lives in many a soul, bpencer and ltandolph have reach'd honour's goal, A shroud ot glory wraps bold Warwick's dust; A nation's praise to all's a common bust. A. W. A. From the Forget-me-M'ot, for 1831. The test ol" ti'ac love. Frcm the Italian By Airs, Abdy. I sought for true and faithful love, Young Hope and Joy my footsteps guided; And soon 1 leach'd a flowery grove. Where two fair rival boys resided. Th one was laughing playful, wild Smiles graced his lips, bright wreaths entwin'd him ; The other thoughtful, timid, mild Approached with look downcast behind him. Hope on the first enraptur'd glanced ; Joy bent his knee in fond devotion; When, lo ! a pensive nymph advanced With mournful brow and measured motion: A Cyprus wand she waived on hih ''he touched the boy his roses vanish'd, Tears quench'd the lustre of his eyes, And all his frolic wiles were banish'd. I lurn'd, and on his rival gazed; Oh ! with what charms my eyes were greeted ! While, as I stood entranced, amaz'd, The nymph these warning words repeated: 'Passion the guise of truth may wear The spells of Hope and Joy may borrow, Eut faithful Love alone can bear The sure unerring test of sorrow A friend attached to the Mission to Colombia, has transmitted to us some accounts of that country, and of interesting incidents belonging to the history of its struggles for liberty. The simple truth contained in the following narrat ive of the fate of a lovely Colombian lady, who suffered under the sentence of a military court, presents a theme for tragedy, which requites no aid from fiction to make most deeply afftciir.g. Globe, "Policarpa Salavarlctta, was young, amiable and beautiful. She was betrothed lo a young officer in the Patriot army, 8c nothing but the turbulence and distraction of the times prevented their union. In 1816, her lover was made a prisoner by Morillo, the Spanish commander, with many other officers. Morillo, dead to every sentiment of humanity, and to every principle of chivalry, exercised his talent for invention, by devising cruel and unheard of punishments, for the purpose of chasthing those attached to the Patriot cause. To punish the officers, he forced them, as common soldiers, into the ranks of the Spanish army. This was thecae with Policarpa's lover. It would have been but natural, that in the contemplation of the misfortunes of her country, and of him to whom she was tenderly attached, she would havebeen overwhelmed with sorrow, & incapable of indulging any passion but that of grief. I3ut instead of bendingtothestovm,she thought(only of vengeance making an effort to deliver her lover from bondage, and to promole the holy cause of liberty. With this view she obtained from a Patriot Colonel (who to save himself, had affected to renounce his principles, and had entered the Spanish service) a statement of the force in Bogota, and of the military dispositions of the commander. Having obtained this, she planned' the escape of her lover and five or sh: of his comrades she suc

ceeded, and they attempted to make their way to the Patriots who were under arms in the plains carrying with them the document furnished by the Colonel. They were pursued and overtaken, and the paper found in their possession. It was traced to Policarpa, and she denied nothing but the means by which she had procured it. Suspicion, however, fell upon the Colonel, and he was arrested and imprisoned. Having nothing to rely upon for his safety but the courage and fidelity of a young and inexperienced female, he gave himself up for last. He did not know the determined spirit and uncompromising integrity of his fair accomplice. She might have sacrificed him, and thus have saved her own life, and perhaps that

of her lover. Love and life with all their blandishments were before her. But what was their price? The destruction of him she had instigated to commit an offence, that, according to military usages, admitted of no puliation, and which the sanguinary Spaniard, who commanded, would assuredly not pardon. In this awful juncture, the hrmness ot a hero might have been tried; but Policarpa wavered not; she resigned herself to her fate, and tho't only of saving the Colonel. To effect ! this, she sent him, ingeniously concealed in a basket of fruit the follow line, "Say always that you have never known me, and you will be safe." He followed lier advice, and as nothing j could be proven against nun on Ins trial, he was acquitted. Policarpa, her lover and his comrades, after a very summary process, were condemned to be shot in the public square as traitors. She heard her sentence unmoved. The day, and the hour of execution arrived she was summoned to prepare for death the summons found her not unprepared, and she at once obeyed it. On her way to the square, her steps were firm, her countenance severe and composed; and whilst all around her was agony and despair, she alone was tranquil and unperturbed. She contemplated the bloodstained banquilla, (the bench on which criminals were seated to be shot,) and the murderous array of soldiers before her, without emotion. She proceeded, (says the historian,) "to the place of execution with a firm step, upbraiding the Spaniards with their barbarous cruelties, and exhorting her companions to meet death with the fortitude of freemen, and proclaiming in a loud voice that her blood would soon be avenged by the deliverers of her country." The signal was given the soldiers fired, and Policarpa was no more. I asked where was the monument upon which was recorded the storv of her devoledness; her virtues and her heroism? I was answered that there was none. But though not commemorated by monument, or "storied urn, or animated bust," the memory of them will be embalmed in the heart's core of her countrymen, as long as the recollection of the late fierce and sanguinary struggle shall endure. J C P. From the Constellation. NeT-orI: Pettifoggers. jXezo York Jam? y 20, 1830. Dear Tim, In my last letter, I told you Pde managed to keep out of jail, tho1 one feller tried plaga hard to put me in. I guess I was a lawer enufF to cast him twice, tho' he was a lawer too and a pretty slippery one into the bargin. The first time he spelt my name in the writ Timbletoes, and 1 upset him there, cause it was no name of mine. The next time he wanton the spot and the justas faulted him so ycu see I've half a mind to stick up a shingle as turney at law, if there want so plagy many of them here already they're as thick as flies round a bunghole. When any body axes me what business Mr. Suchaone is in, and I don't know, I always tell them he's a lawer, and more than half the time I'm right. There are good many tricks of these New York petty foggers to get business. They don't borde in any place more than a month, but keep shifting about from one house to another. This you see is to make acquaintences. But my idee is the shorter time some 'em stay the better cause why? don't they sometimes run up a long score at their landladie's and then run off and forget to pay her. That's true as a sarmunt, as my name is Enoch, and the worst on't is you might as well try to squees milk out of a hen's nest, as to sue these ere petty foyers and set any thing but a judgement a dam of a scent would I give for all the judgements agin 'em. One of these same land sharks as the sailers call cm came to rny landlady's with his wife and nine children and one at the breast as the catechism says of John Rogers' woman. Well I guess they stade with us three or four weeks when Mrs. Fritter told him she wanted some money. The feller was hopping mad and said he guessed he'd leave the house if she

dunned him at that rate. The old lady stuck to him and said she'd not wait no longer, and then he said he'd pay to-morrow; but next morning he didn't comedown to breakfast with his wife nor none of his children. So after waiting awhile Mrs. Fritter sent up to call them, and by the hoky! the whole concern had cleared out as slick as a whistle. However the old lady was glad on't and thought she got oil plagy cheap, as she was afeard he might stick to her all winter. ENOCH TIMBERTOES.

Enter Obadiah, who seats himself in the corner opposite to Sally, without sayinu a word for fifteen minutes, but finally, scratching his head, breaks silence with. There's considerable imperdeptible alterin of the weather since last week. Sally Taint so injudicious and so indubitable cold as 'twas; the thenomicon has lowered up to four hundred degrees higher than zenith. Obadiah I think's likely, for birds of that specie fly a great quantity higher in warm days than in cold ones. Both parties assume a grave and knowing look, and a long pause ensues. Finally Obadiah gives his pate another harrowing scratch, and again breaks silence. Wal, Sally, we chaps are going to raise a sleigh ride, it's sich inimical jjood sleddin to-morrow. Sally You arr? Our folks are suspectin company all day to-morrow. Obadiah. I spose they'll have insaitate si ick times on'r. I should be undefinitely happy if you would disgrace me with your company ; I should take it as a derogitary honor; besides, we're calculating to treat the gals copious well wilh rasons and blackstrap. Sally. I should be supernatural glad to disgrace you, but our folks suspect company; 1 cant go. Obadiah sits scratching his head a while, and at length starts up as though anew idea had come upon him. Wal, now I know what I'll do; Pli go home and thrash them are beens what have been lyin there in the barn a darnd while. (Exeunt Obadiah.) Livingston Register. Longevity of animals.
