From the New York Commercial Advertiser. THE DEAD OP 1332. Oh time anil death! with certain pace, Though still unequal, hurrying on, O'erturning, in your awful race, The cot, the palace, and the throne! Not always in the storm of war, Nor by the pestilence that sweeps From the plague smitten realms afar Ueyond the old and solemn deeps. In crowds the good and mighty go, And to those vast, dim chambers hie, Where mingled with the vile and low, Dead 'Caesars and dead Shakspeares lie! Dead Ministers of God! sometimes Ye smile at once, to do His will, In all earth's ocean-severed climes, Those whose renown you cannot kill! When all the brightest stars that burn ' At once are banished from their spheres; Men sadly ask, when shall return Such lustre to the coming years? For where is he (a) who Kved so long, Who raised the modern Titan's ghost And shewed his fate, in powerful song, Whose soul for learning's sake was-lost! Where he who backwards to the birth Of time itself, adventurous trod, And in the mingled mass of earth Found out the handiwork of God? (b) Where hewho in the mortal Head (c) Ordained to gaze on heaven, could trace The soul's best features, that shall tread The stars, when earth is nothingless? Where he who struck old Alio's lyre, (d) Till round the world it's echoes roll. And swept, with all a prophet's fire, The passion of the soul? Wherejie who read the mystic Iore,(e) Buried where buried Pharaohs sleep, And dared presumptuous to explore Secrets four thousand years could keep? Where he who with a poet's eye () Of truth, on lowly nature gazed, And made even sordid poverty Classic, when in his numbers glazed? Where that old sage, so hale and staid, () The 'greatest good,' who sought to find; Who in his garden mused, and made All forms of rule, for all mankind? And thou whom millions far removed h) Revered the hierarch meek and wise; Thy ashes sleep, adored, beloved. Near where thy Wesley's coffin lies. He too, the Heir of Glory where Hath great. Napoleon's scion fled? Ah! glory goes not to an heir! Take him, ye noble vulgar dead! But hark! a nation sighs! for he () Last of the brave who periled all To make an infant empire free, Obeys the inevitable call! They go and with them is a crowd, For human rights who thought and did We rear te them no temples proud, Each hath his mental pyramid. All earth is now their sepulchre, The mind, their monument sublime Young in eternal fame they are Such are your triumphs, Death and Time! (a) Goethe and his Faust. (b) Cuvier. (c) Spurzheim. (d) Scott, (e) Champoillon. () Crabbe. Jeremy Bentham. A Adam Clarke. i Charles Carroll. gf 4X mm CCThe Hillsborough Recorder says: A shocking murder was committed in this neighborhood on Saturday morning last.

On Monday evening, the Bible So ciety held its annual meeting in the ses sion house of the Presbyterian church, at which the Rev. Dr. Joseph Caldwell pre sided. The Reports of the Treasurer and Secretary were laid before the meet ing; some interesting reports from distri buting agents read; the Officers of the Society and the preacher for the ensuing year appointed.

The annual meeting of the State Temperance Socie ty was held in this city, during the last week. Notice had been previously giv en, that nn address would be delivered on the occasion, by Dr. Wm. A.

His address was full of con- : Yiuciug tacis, leiicuuus (juuiuiiuus, uuu beautiful imagery, and we listened to it with unmingled satisfaction. The pro ceedings of the meeting, we learn, will be published hereafter. Gen. Bridger J. Montgomery presided, and a number of resolutions were adopted. ib. - i Important to Duellists. A case is re-! ported in the Philadelphia U. S.

CTA remarkable instance of the ef fects of religious enthusiasm is now crea ting a considerable excitement in tho northern part of the city. A young lady in a high state of enthusiasm suddpnlv fell into a swoon, and remained in that condition for several days. All efforts to rouse her were found ineffectual. Her eyes were fixed, her limbs immoveable, and her pulse feeble. Her friends, be i e v i n her dying, procured medical as sistance, and she was at length with great difficulty, called back to a consciousness of life. She awoke as from a dream said she had been in heaven and hell and told marvellous stories of her disco veries in the course of her migrations. The living and the dead were seen by her in their appropriate state of enjoyment or sunering; and all that was mysterious to fpHE Subscriber respectfully informs his friends anil the Public, that he intends removing to town on the 1st day of January next, and will re commence keeping A House of Entertainment, AT HIS OLD STAND IN TAK BO ROUGH.
