FOK THE FREE l'RESS,
To Libcrlas.
Thou sweetest bard that ever sung.
With magic chords your lute is strung;
Where, oh, where dost thou belong,
Thou sweet, thou charming child of song?
Your golden touch can melt the rocks,
The dead enchant, charm brutes and blocks;
Make tigers tame in the savage wild
IVIake sirens and seraphs sigh and weep,
And huge sea-monsters forsake the deep,
To dance to your music on earth awhile.
Gods! Gods! 'twill give the muses joy,
To behold so sweet a minstrel boy;
And pleased. will be your sovereign Q,
With you his loyal minstrel you
And now, O bard! methinks I see
You master Q, rewarding thee;
I think I sec you with these eyes,
'A light-house rearing in the skies:"
To illume the world 1 ween, in case
Sol's golden disk should lose its iays.
And ckc methinks, I see you "gaze,"
Through telescope in strange amaze;
At comets, moons, and all the stars,
The planets Ilcrschcl, Mercury, Mars:
And all the planetary crew,
That roll the boundless heavens through.
Happy, happy Libertas! methinks tis him
I see,
Enjoying now the precious smiles of his mas
ters Q and C;
And ten-fold happy poetaster, I think with
these my eyes,
I sec 'cm dub him Garer Chie f, at stars be
yond the skies.
And 1 think 1 see Q's understrappers all
now on their way,
W'ith Libcrtas moping at their heels, in
search of l'a-na-ma.
nu 10: l see mem coming oacs, no Con
gress can they find,
And the eighty thousand thus applied, is gi
ven to the wind.
Happy, happy poetaster! oh, happy must
he be,
ZVlethinks I see him now embraced by Don
Hal Traitor C
And now they to the palace hie, to play a
game or two,
At billiards with his majesty, the roval John
ny Q.
And now, O Gods! the billiard balls in con
sternation fly,
O'er the table and as swift as meteors thro'
the sky.
nd now methinks I hear Q say, to Congress
loud and shrill,
"I command yc to be palsied not by the peo
ple's paltry will."
And eke methinks I hear his bard, chanting
forth his praise,
And thus sings he, "God bless King Q, may
manv be his days."

SATIRE.
Tf satire charms, strike faults but spare the
man,
Tis dull to be as witty as you can.
Satire recoils whenever charg'd too hitrh.
Hound your own fame the fatal splinter fly
As the soft plume gives swiftness to the dart
Good breeding sends the satire to the heart
Wonderful weed of Ame-
Dancing Dumplings. Having
a quill fixed with quicksilver and
stopped close, you secretly thrust
it into the dough, which when the
dumpling is boiling, will put it in
to motion. By means of quick
silver, many ludicrous feats may
he performed; and the following
anecdote is in point. An old lady
on a Sunday, was making dump
lings, when two urchins, her grand
sons, camo to visit her, and being
archly disposed, while her back
was turned, conveyed some quick
silver into the dough, and then
took their departure. The an
cient dame left the care of 'the
cooking to her granddaughter and
betook herself to church, charging
her to be careful in skimming the
pot, wherein where concealed the
dumplings and a leg of mutton.
The girl was very watchful in
obeying these injunctions, and ta
king otf the cover, out popped a
dumpling, which she puts in again,
when out bounced another, and
another after that, so terrifvinix
the girl that she ran all speed to
the church; grandmother Feeing
her come, shook her head wink
ing at her, as much as to say, "be
gone!" At last the girl cried out
before the whole congregation,
"all your nodding and winking is
in vain; for the leg of mutton has
kicked the dumplings out of the
pot."
'.Ma foi!' said a little French
man to his friend, as they walked
behind a young strut, who assu
med a vast consequence on the
sirenth of being worth 30,01)0.
'Ma i'oi! I should like to make one
grand speculation.1 'And in what
would you speculate, Monsicr!'
asked his companion. 'I should
like to buy that young man for
what others think him worth, and
sell him for what he thinks himself
worth; ma foi! it would make me
one grand fortune.' j

PROSPECTUS
OF THE

MPIIK want of a work to which our
A Planters could refer for information,
relative to the Agriculture of the Sou
thern section of the Union, has Ion"
been felt and has long been subscribed
to as a necess.-iry evil, for which no re
medy was at hand. With a sufficiency
of talents and of enterprise to conduct
experiments, to draw inferences, and to
retail them; yet have we presented to
the worM the spectacle of a high mind
ed ami enterprising agricultural
jnity, destitute of original agricultural'
the States, or such as mav directlv oi
indirectly have an influence on us, will
be inserted in this part of the work.
Part 3d will contain brief A gricultural
notices, so that our Planters may not re
main ignorant of what is going" on, but
may have an opportunity of knowing
what is going on in the different parts
of thc world in aid of Agriculture. It
is hoped that this knowledge, will be as
a spur to our enterprise, and cause us
also to make fresh exertions. Here al
so will he inserted a list of Agricultural,
Horticultural works, and orcasimiali v

tents. Advertisements relating to Ag
ricultural Works and implements, or
any other which may interest tho Plan

separate hect, and attached to each

We hope such as arc favorably dispo
sed to the work will assist us in contri
buting to its pages, and also in procur
ing Subscribers for it. Those who have
made experiments with Grape Vines,

cles new to our Slates, or can give any
information relative to them, we parti
cularly solicit to communicate what they
may know on the subject.
