And was happy I hardly knew how. I joined in the sports of the plain With rapture I heard the blithe song ; - In the dance, I was fim of the train, And wns gayest among the gay throng. Tis true toy heart oft breathed a sigh, But it rose fromjfriild pity alone ; If a tear sometimes strayed from my eye, It tlow'd not from griefs of its own. extend ISs trials to the IfltroJuarenj of a Jajger column of air, than could paft -throtteh the Uetn ot a bull ruin . . . .

Disappointment has chas'dirom my tr.nid ! And the 'friends whom I fancied ail truth, Alas 1 can be somel'tr cs unkind.

After this nothing very rnterelline was" before the public cither in philofophy or politics, during his Hay ; and he was principauy occupied in winding up his affairs aud pre paring for his "return to America. "Thefe firiall offerings to the memo ry of our great and dear friend, (whom time will be making ftilU greater, while it is fpunging us from it! records) mult be accepted by you, Sir, -in that I pint of love arnl veneration for him in which they are made ; and not according to their infignificancy Uv the eyes "of a world, "which did not want this mite to -fill up the meafure of his worth ! . , " His tleath was art affliction,' which was to happen to us at fomc time or' oi her.

" . . These 'Monarchy men are not numerous: yet they are as plenty as they ever wer in any country not older than purs; They have contrived to keep their real principles aloof, . wrapt up in darknessand involved in mist, that ' you should not discover them too soon, tper knew you well, arid were certain that your - indignation wotdd be excited, if they were to come out plainly, while you 'were yet Free men. From their secret places hare issued all the complaints, slanders, calumnies., and execrations which have- spread over the country, against the Government. The great printers first received them from the junto; the little printers caught them from those, and echoed and re-echoed them till you were stutfned with the noise and obliged to yield assent. ' But those men are no longer to be con cealed. They are enierging from darkness into open view. Their misty mantle is rent. ThcY, shrink before the naked inspection of . Freemen. .They strive earnestly for still fttftlicr concealment; but in vain The tor rent of filtliy Blackguardism -end Calumny, which arc vomited "forth in their desperation, will be of no avail. The period is come, when we demand that they should explicitly and with decency sta'e what they would have, what their principles are; wherein they dif iit from Republicanism and the present Ad ministration. With this just demand they will ne.vet comply : It wou'.d be instant death ta their hones. They will adhere to their own alternative, Scurrility. 'But if they would comply with oUr demand in this one respoct, you would be no longer at a loss Free Mason's Monitor J , The -New- Complete LtUtv Writer Clerka Magazi ne A every thinp that Comes from ".the ften of Mr. IcrTetfon. the clory of his eotint'rv. is dear to tterublicans, ihe fu. iowtrtg'exirarl from lis U.ter refpefting the deA'ln.if Dr. franklin, Mrhom future mentions wiil tlclihr to honour, ' co- r-ied from the oratjon on hii death, jJcl'u tered by Dr. W.
