For the Weekly Messenger. Desultory Remarks. It appears 1o me, that there is but one
jdircct plan for mankind to pursue, in 'the scale of humanity. This glorious j Universe, with its attendant orbits, and iimmcnsity of space, was treated upon lone material plan; it revolves regular-
ily upon its axis, and the smallest parti
inconsistencies, three thousand dollar per year, being too great a sum to lose. Besides, as the nobility never rend in
books of divinity, they arc none the wi-1 ser. These are strange innovations from Republican simplicity, and must, eventually lead to monarchy! I raise my humble voice and the whole energies of my mind against (hem, and I trust, that
I will be seconded by every true patriot

For the Weekly Mrssmgcr. The Beauties of August.
Bright Nymph of Summer. Hoses twine Around thy braided hair! The Star of Love for thee doth ehine, For thou art passing fair: Sun beams do o'er thy temples play, Thy arbours waft perfume Sweet as Arabia all is gay, No grief my hours consums How dear are all thy hours of ease, They do exalt my mind! Who couid not dwell on scones like these, So delicious and retined? The bliss that every Poet shares, Gives encrgv nnd peace, Alike, they sooth his transient cares, And bid each tumult cease. At morning dawn, when every sigh Hath fld, I'll pace those bowers, Listen to Nafure9 i.ielodv, And revel Vnong her flowers: Come, August, from thy balmy groves Incite mv soul to jov. Thy presence Music:s ardour moves, And all my powers emp'.oy. I'll wander in the soitry noon, Secure fn;m every pain My cheerful lyre will oft attune, And smile with thee again! Why should the Minstrel ever sleep, Or heed th? demon Fear? He hath a precious charge to keep, And should serene appear. God of the rolling vear, to thee We should devote our praise! Thou dost prote-.t a worm like me, And givest length of days: Let grief pervade the anxious breast, Thou art our Father still! My soul, in vain, would seek for rest, Unless it were thy will Benjamin S. Bulfinch. August 16, 1833.

ORIGINAL MAXIMS.
In physic, however useful, the theory
is, there must be a good understanding
long practice,and attentive observation
this constitutes the skilful physician
hat Job said of his friends, may be
applied to too many, 'ie are physici
ans of little value.
It has often been quaintly remarked
flat ''Poetry and Poverty are kindred
spirits the reason is obvious, Poets are
seldom so mean as to take advantage
of wealth.
No man will quarrel with another of
doubtful character, who considers his .reputation of any value. Men of principle never engage in violent political and religious quarrels tfoey Lave more sense. The envious man hates to see any
.'one thrives except himself; he has no
particular aim, unless it be to sever the sacretf bonds of friendship.
A Poet's fame, though envied, dies

est, and many claimed kindred with tlie
British nobility, (a notion which is regularly indulged in most of our large cities, when a similarity of names exists,
and insisted that they were entitled to
the first places in the dance, according to the royal rules of the Court of St.
James, at London. The late Judge
Peters being fortunately present at one

When 1 see an indigent man doff his
hat, and bow to a purse proud nabob, for the purpose of getting into favour, 1 consider him beneath the dignity of a
slave, whose condition, and not his rea
son, bids him to obey the will of a cruel
and vindictive master. A freeman has
nothing to fear from persons, to whom
wealth alone gives an importance of
character; lie should consider that "all
is not gold that glitters," and that un
seen disasters by land and sea, may re
dure his neighbour to a level with him
self. V hat reason has he to fear the
censures of such men' They cannot in
jure him while he keeps within the pale
ot tne law, and tnat can easily be done by maintaining an honest deportment, and by rigidly avoiding litigation. The limits of these remarks will not permit me to enlarge upon various topics revolving in my mind, which may
be reverted toon a future occasion. In
the present instance, I assure the pub
lie that 1 have no sinister ends in view, no haired towards my fellow men but
as a citizen of the world, and an ac
countable being, bound to expose the
enormities and gross inconsistencies of
our nature. I or this reason the servi
lity of the press has been arrayed against
me, in many places, which accounts for my silence heretofore. I am gratified, however, to find the conductors of one "free press," at least, so independent as to permit me to be heard. BENJAMIN S. BULFINCH.
