v From the Ohio Repository. roz, oa: Dear reader, have you ncveV walked, At early dawn or even tide, In some coo! grove, or on the brink Of waters slceninjr far ami wide: When winds and waves were sunk to rest, And silence ad the earth caressed? The first low whisncr. movinc leaf Or wing was heard; and far on shores nemoie irora tnose you trod, now loua The sound of boatmen shipping oars! So still was all, without, within, For one to speak it seemed a sin. Scenes, such as these, with little thought, Point us to nations in their birth; When every deed the patriot does, To save the State is blazoned forth: The statesman's plea, the warrior's arm, Like Patrick Henry's, spreads alarm. But when the elements of death Are roused, and men go forth to war. Or, when the breeze of enterprise Has grown into a stunning roar; Then, who would fix the public eve, Must do great things or be passed" by. So, in the literary world, The first attempts at wit or song, Or those that aim at solid worth, Arc tho't of much and talk'tl of long: When better deeds in after days, Lie piled unnoticed in the public ways. Let him, therefore, whose eyes arc fixed On fame's star-courting, dizzy height; Beware of sloth: yes, mental sloth Will clothe his soul in starless night: And none so miserable as those Who love with sleepy Indolence to doze.

As his motive is entirely disinte rested and patriotic in making this re quest, it being his desire to produce positive evidence of the number of newspapers printed in the United States and their Territories, he de sires that particular attention may be paid to this request; and above all, by the publishers of country papers, in distant towns that are, comparatively, little known; and if, at the same time, they would communicate in their pa pers any "statistical information, re lative to their immediate neighbor hood, it would be highly appreciated and gratefully acknowledged." It is intended that every newspaper received, shall be carefully preserved and arranged, by Slates, in a room at Washington, devoted for this object; one set to be eventually deposited in the Library of Congress; the duplicate set to be transmitted to O. Rice, Esq. of London, (Agent for the purchase of books, &c. for 4he Congressional Library) to be-by him placed in the British Museum; and the triplicate set to be retained for some public in stitution. 1 It is intended. ! collection is completed, to publish in tabular form, in the public prints, or the information of the people of the U.
