THE DYING CHRISTIAN. How r cartful is the closing scone, When virtue yields its bre ath . How swe etly beams the smile serene. Upon the chick of death ! The christian's hope no fvnr can blight, No pain his peace destroy. He iews I eyor.d the realms of light Of pure ami boundless joy. Oh', who can aaze with heedless sigh, On scene so fair as this Who but exclaims "thus lot medic, And be my end like his."

From the S'antut!cl Iivjuinr. Progress of a dandy. Elcazer Muckleton, was born and partly bred in a tow?) not far fmrn the metropolis of Massachusetts. Old seutre Muckleton, the father,
was an uncouth, left-handed, parrot toed
sott of a clodhopper: while his lady bavin: once spent a w inter among the fashionabb sir the citv, was altogether devoted
warmed
tence. So extensively in fact had he profited by tbe good lady's instructions, and so thoroughly had he completed bis education, that the doating mother found him to be much too far advanced in the science ol gentility, either to subserve her original
j design, or to come within the range of her ; comprehension. Since her sojourn at the J capital, very important changes in tbe j world of fashion bad occurred. New habI ilimcnts, &, new manners had been invented and whde Muckleton the younger di
lated on these topics, the old sho.d disciple was wrapped in astonishment and adi mirable perplexity. It was therefore with
no great reluctance that the parents con
sented to encourage the genius ot Mi
Kleazer with a viaticum of five thousand
i dollar wherewith to proceed to the em
: porium of dry gods within the dominions of his majesty ol England, in order to ; make puichascs, return and make his for tune. With thee views he departed ; and an : abrence of six months contributed to tians- ; form the C'ornl.id coxcomb ;nto an Exqnisite ot the highest grade. He had swelled i himself out of everv body's in mor so
jj that he could not possibly recognize his
! former acquaintances. Fur every uohar i carried with him to London, and Lfd.S&,

an outline, presenting a few prominent traits, is all we mean to attempt. Ol Mr. Adams1 talents we need not speak. Kven his patriotic enemies are proud of them, as giving lustre to the literature of ihe country, and elevation to the character of her statesmen. The powers of his mind and the inilucr.ee of his
pen, have been frit iu all the neg ciations
jtherenyti.e bones ot union: jo protect Uiomeslic ii.du.-trv, that the farmer mav j have a home market for hU produce, and be enabled to buy of those- who buy td him j and rendering the nation independent, in war and peace, of foreign nations: To reduce the national debt as rapidly as practicable : To set an example of repub lican simplicity of manners and co .duct: .In tine, to endeavour to deserve public approbation by meritorious deeds: These !are the arts this the management, by which Mr. Adams and the Administration seek to court the public favor. God g ant I such course may be pursued for thousands
ot years. In truth, we say it with sincerity, Mr. Adams appears to us the farthest removed
j from any thing like party management, plan, political intrigue, or scheme to favor j his election or advance any personal ob
ject, of any statesman w e have ever read heard of, or known.
