WE HAIL THE CHIEF.
BY MRS. GOODRICH, OF BOSTON.
i,
. Let servile Europe pour her lay
To grac o some Monarch's natal day ;
Let flatterers bend before the throne
Columbia bows to worth alone !
She sings no despot's furious deeds,
Where freedom falls and justice bleeds
Where wild ambition leads the van,
And rivets slavery's chains on man !
4 We iiail the Chief who bravely stood
At Freedom's altar bathed in blood:
: Upheld her rights, enforced her laws,
And fought and conquered in her cause!
- New Orleans, rise, the trump awake,
Pour its loud notes o'er land and lake;
' Tilllist'ning nations catch the tone,
And echo ring from zone to zone.
Who saved thy maidens' matchless charm?,
- ' From Britain's brutal soldiers' awns ?
Who saved thjj city's boasted wealth
From public plunder, private stealth ?
The western rifle played its part, t
And silenced many a gallant heart ;
By JACKSON led, the gallant band
' fiepelled invasion from the land.
Shame on the trembling coward, shame,
Who dare, detract from JACKSON'S famei .
Our country's pride, our foeman's grief,
A free born nation's chosen Chief
The civic wreath for battles won,
A nation vowed her noblest son ;
Her gratitude has paid that vow,
And twined the oak for JACKSON'S brow.

Trustees with pleasure announce to the public
that the proficiency of the students assures
them, they have not been deceived in their es
timate of the qualifications of the instructors.
From what they .have witnessed, during the
examination of the young gentlemen in their
various studies, the Trustees have no hesitancy
m saying, that the JNewbern Academy furnishes
every facility for a thorough acquaintance with
the Latin and Creek languages , and such a
knowledge of the English, as prepares the
learner lor the duties oi the more laborious de
partments of life. The Trustees were highly
gratified in observing, that the young gentle
men were not superficial in their acquirements
but that they had made themselves thoroughly
acquainted with all the ground over which they
had gone. The classes under the direction of
Mr. Jones, read Latin and Greek with facility
and judgment ; they parsed and scanned with
correctness and promptness. The classes un
der the direction of Mr. Wadsworth, displayed
uncommon readiness in their replies to all the
questions proposed : their knowledge offio-ures
did them much credit. ,
The Trustees are happv in stating that the
reputation of Mr. Jones, of the Classical De
partment, and of Mr. Wadsworth, of the Eng
lish Department, has been well sustained by
the very evident advancement of their respec
tive students in their different studies.
The next term will commence on the first
of October.
