Frcm the Ediratdsville Spectator THh PHILANTHROPIST'S DESIRE.
Awake my soul ! Muse boldly strike the lyre, Proclaim the earnest wiihei of my f heart ; O thou who touch'd Isaiahs lip with fire," His glowing spirit to my muie im nart ! Sing Hon the injur'd sons of Afiic smart Beneath the goad of galling servitude ; How Av'rice fell employs each wily art, To forge the chains of bondage vile and rude, And stain Missouri plains with negroes' sweat and blood 1 Say to the guardians of our liberty, That these are men our equals they were made. By Him who formM the hearens, earth and ser One Father have we ; anJ One Saviour bled For all mankind, for black, for white and red : Then while we toil to keep the sacred boon Of Liberty, O may we still be led Such foul injustice to our race to shun, And may we do to others what we would have done 1 But Oh ! methinks the iiations solemn voice Should be high rais'd to let the captives free, And make the mourners of the south, rejoice In glad'ning hope of home and liberty. Delightful thought 1 what pleasure 'twere to see Millions of happy souls enslav'd no more ; Wives, husbands, parents, and their progeny, Embrace with joy to Heaven thcii pravers pour, From Mississippi's banks to vast Pacific's shore. ; Father of all, in every age" the same ! Ou'- God, Creator of all things that are, O let me bow before thine awful Name ! For slaves enable me to raise mv P'-av'r ! Sec! Mihtv God, how bold blasphemers dare To trample on the rights that Thou hast giv'n, Their natke land by fraud involv'd in war, Torn from their home, and into bondage driv'n 1 And every h.)pe shut out except the hope of Hsaven I But tor my dear, my native land, my soul Would pray that Thou would st look in mercy down : Let not the thunders of thy vengeance roll, But let repentant tears thine anger drown. IIs not the blood of Jesus freely flown To save repenting sinners, weak and ft ul ? Then ah 1 fortrive and heal this deadly wound ! Let justice, truth, and righteousness , prevail, And nuiv our children's children this cpocha hail ! Pcfit WIFE AND HOME. If a man he not hanny in his own house, where s-.all he look for hap piness ? it is the proper therti e of a woman's elorv it is the just bounds cl a man's felicity. He may, indeed wander in a fruitless search of extra ordinary bliss : but the sole of his foot, like that of Noah's dove wid find no rest until returned to the ark of domestic tran juiiity The peace he enjoys at home entiles him to respect abroad, gives joy to his conversation, an 1 adds, vigor to his friendship. It is this also, which consoles in calamity, and plucks out the arrow of ill natured censure. Happy the man, who with cool, determined indifference, can withdraw from the world's applause, and the world's cnenvy ; meeting in the smiles of a wife gratification which the former cannot abate bv its subtiitv, nor the latter embitter by its venom. JULIET. uShe was sitting at the head of his grave ; the grass was beginning to look green upon the tnrf around the stone, where her tears usually fell. She had not observed inc. and I stood still ; " Thou hast Ief me, my Henry! said she, bendinp her face to the turf " thou Ijast left inc, but it was to attend a
dearer call ! I Trill rot weep," wi
ping her eyes with her handkerchief, u I will not weep, For it was the call " of one who loved thee better 1 " Thou hast flown to his bosom, and "what hast thou left behind for thy ' poor Juliet, but this cold sod ; . She was silent some moments. The full moon was just beginning to cumo over the tops ot the trees as I came up, and a she stooped to kiss the turf, I saw the tears trickling through the moon beams in hasty drops from her eyes Thou hast left me, said Juliet, raising her face from the ground, thou hast left 44 me, but we shll meet again ! I shall see thy face again, and hear u the well known accents of my Hen 4 ry's toungue ! In those blest rcgions we shall part no more, but " live and love, with increasing fen or. thiough the endless ages of a happy ' immortality I" She rose to retire. The tear that trembled in her eye was checked by the placid smile of heavenly resignation which shone through her lovely features Never, till that moment, did I behold so sweet a charm ! One might read this sentence in her face. " Thou hast left me," said the tea;'; 44 but we shall meet again, and then shall part no more," said the smile u Blessed religion " thought I, "how happy are thy children ; Hat Manufactory BMIE subscriber respectfully in Ji forms his friends and the public in general that he continues to cairy on the Hatting Business in all its various branches, at his shop on Main Street, in Vincennes. where he has on hand and will at aii times keep an extensive assortment of FAHHIOJYJBEE hJTS, which he will warrant shall not in point of elegance & durability, be ex celled by any in the 7.
