RELIGION AND JUSTICE.
From the Poem of Dermot Mac Morrogh, by
Ex-President Adams.
Divine Religion! bli?s of man below,
Thou link of union between earth and skies,
Nurse of our virtue, solace of our wo;
Love of the learned, wisdom of the wise.
Thou from whose fountain, streams perennial flow
Of prayer sincere, and prayer and penance rise,
Oh! how canst thou behold such deeds of shame,
Such crimes accurst committed in thy name."
And if there be a Ruler of the Skies,
Justice, eternal justice is his law
And whatsoe'er of justice earth denies,
Angelic hands in Heaven shall mend the flaw.
Rise, then, on Hope's seraphic pinions rise!
From worlds beyond the grave thy comfort draw
And deem the wrongs that virtue here sustains,
Proofs that on high a God of justice reigns.
(JThe following satirical stanzas are from
"Friendship's Offering," a beautiful English
Annual for 1833, recently published:
RESPECTABILITY.
"Pray what do you mean by 'respectability?'
Is it wisdom or worth, Sir, or rank or gentility?
Is it rough sound sense, or a manner refined?
Is it kindness of heart, or expansion of mind?
Is it learning, or talent, or honor, or fame,
That you mean by that phrase so expressive to
name:"
"No, no, these are not, Sir, the things now in
vogue
A respectable man, Sir, may be a great rogue;
A respectable person may be a great fool, "
Have lost e'en the little he picked up at school
Be a glutton, adulterer, deep drowned in debt,
May forfeit his honor, his best friend forgot;
JVIay be a base sycophant, tyrant, or knave,
But a livery servant at least he must have;
In vice he may vie with the vilest of sinners,
But he ?nust have a cook and give capital din
ners J'
Dermot Mac Morrogh, or the Con
quest oflreland, an historical tale of the
twelfth century, in . four cantos, by John
Quincy Adams. This is the tide of a
neat pamphlet of 103 pages, recently pub
lished in Boston. It is spoken very high
ly of, in several of the northern papers.
The Boston Advocate states that the ex
President has been eminently successful
in this fanciful, but elegant trifling of his
leisure hours. He has chosen for his
theme the events which led to the posses
sion of Irelaud by England in the twelfth
century, and as has always been the fact,
since the days of Eve and Helen, in nil
conquests and downfalls of man and em
pires, a woman is the cause of all. Der
mot, King ofLeinster, seizes and carries
ofFDovegilda, wife of Ororic, who in re
turn, attacks Dermot and drives hitn out
of the kingdom. He applies to Henry of
England for succor, and ravages his king
dom, which he consents to hold in vassal
age under the crown of England. Hen
ry availed himself of this claim, and thro'
it achieved the entire conquest of Ireland.
This outline Mr. Adams has wrought up
to a beautiful moral, illustrating the trite,
but as he conceives, false maxim, that
History is Philosophy teaching by exam
pic; an aphorism which has made a grea
ter fortune in the world than it deserves.
Mr. Adams, in hia preface to the poem,
says: "It is intended also as a moral tale,
teaching the citizens of these States, of
both sexes, the virtues of conjugal fideli
ty, of genuine piety, and of devotion to
their country, by pointing the linger of
scorn, at the example six hundred years
since exhibited, of a country sold to a for
eign invader, by the joint agency of vio
lated marriage vows, unprincipled ambi
tion and religious imposture."
Georgia anti-Tariff Convention.
1 his assembly has adjourned, after much
warm debating und no little crimination
and recrimination amongst its members.
Mr. orsythe and Col. Camming seemed
to have headed the party opposed to nul
lification, and Messrs. Berrien and Clay
ton those who espoused the doctrine.
I he former, after having protested a
gainst the authority of the Convention as
representing the people of Georgia, sece
ded, followed by 52 others, leaving about
behind, who adopted sundry resolu
tions, some of which assert principles,
which no republican can reject, and con
cluded by inviting the people of the Stale
to join in a Southern Convention to meet
in March next, for the purpose of devi
sing such measures as may best conduce
to the removal of the burthens imposed
bv the existing tariff. The President of
the Convention is directed to communi
fifttfs the resolutions to the several States,
having common interest in the removal of
the grievances complained ol so tnai
we suppose they will be received in time
to be laid before our present General As
sembly. What they will do, time must
determine. Raleigh Constitutionalist.
Georgia Legislature. A proposition
is before the Legislature, to invite the
States of North and South Carolina, Ala
bama, Virginia, Tennessee, and Missis
sippi, to join the state of Georgia, in a
Convention, tovconsider the subject of
the Tariff, and devise the most ellectual
and proper mode of obtaining relief from
it. The Convention to be held in case
live of the six states agree to unite in it.
We also find the following, among the
notices of bills brought in:
"Mr. Haynes An act declaring it a high
misdemeanor for any Attorney, Solicitor, or
Counsellor to appear in any Court in this State,
in behalf of any Cherokee Indian, or descendant
of a Cherokee Indian, or of any white person, in
any cause, motion, or petition, calling in ques
tion the State's right of jurisdiction over that
portion of her territory in the occupancy of the
Cherokee Indians, or who .shall make any mo
tion, or in any manner attempt to enforce the late
decision of the Supreme Court in the case of
Worcester and Rutler against the State of (Geor
gia and to provide for the punishment of the
same."
It would seem from the above, that
State Rights are to be sustained upon
high grounds in Georgia.
A bill has been also introduced, against
the President and Directors of future
failing Banks, comprising a penalty of
"thirty-nine lashes on their naked backs,
ami imprisonment at the discretion of
the Court.
The Statue. The last Greensboro'
Patriot publishes a letter from Mr. Ball
Hughes, the person employed by the
state to restore the statue of Washington,
to the Editor of that paper, complaining
of the notice lately taken of him by the
Patriot, and in no select terms, pronoun
cing the statement that he had got $3,000
and runaway, to be a "shameful and out
rageous lie." lie declares, "on his hon
or, that he has never received one or any
of the instalments, until they became just
ly due according to the terms of the con
tract." He goes on to say
"It always was my intention to restore the
marble in Raleigh; but I am not in any way
bound (o restore the busts there. The news of
the dreadful cholera hove hurried me away from
Raleigh; but not until I had completed my con
tract to the utmost for what I had been paid:
neither have I ever received any money which I
was not, by such contract, strictly entitled to.
The loss of one of my best workmen, and other
reasons not necessary to mention here, demand
cd I should restore the busts, (not the Statue,)
in New York, where I have every convenience
for so doing; and by which arrangement the
work in question would have been forwarded
some months."
The Editor, in his reply, says that tie
made his statement on the authority
alone of common report.
The Raleigh Constitutionalist, com
menting upon the singular conductof Mr.
Hughes, very correctly remarks, if he
"has any regard for that reputation which
gained for him the confidence of our Le
gislature, and secured for him a bonus of
$2,800, he will return forthwith to his du
ties, instead of attempting to vindicate
himself through the columns of a news
paper, by prevarication."
