It has'diffused a sacred joy in the abodes of poverty and wretchedness: it has illuminated the dungeon of the captive ; it has effaced the wrinkles from the brow of care—shed a gleam of sacred and tranquil joy in the chamber of death ; gladdened the countenance of the dy- ing with a triumphant enthusiasm, and diffused throughout the earth a faint foretaste of the blessings of fu- turity. It is benign as the light of heaven, and comprehensive as its span. An iris in the'sky of the chris- tian, it quickens perseverance with the promises of reward—reanimates the drooping -spirit—invigorates the decripitude of age—and directs, with a prophetic ken, to the regions of e- ternal felicity.

OLD MAIDS. JPorurn.-r-We have ever been fa- vourable to the Forum established in this city. It is calculated to promote a taste for reading, an aptness at de- livery, and an attachment to oratory ; but a question was recently discussed at this institution, which, in our view, was highly objectionable and absurd, viz : \ which is the greatest nuisance \o society, an old maid or a dandy ?\ This is really cruel, indicative 6f a narrow mind, and an uncourteous feeling. Why is an old maid to be more of a nuisance than an old man ? Age is entitled to respect in either sex, single or married, if their con- duct be unexceptionable. It is true, custom has sanctioned a very unfair prejudice, that single women of a cer- tain age become mere gossips, tea- table chronicles, messengers oi' scan- dal, enemies to all young couples, bating matrimony and loving cards. Yet are we soberly to subscribe to such doctrines, and confirm such prejudices ? Are we prepared, in this enlightened and refined age, to declare that old maids are a nuisance ? \ Fie on't, o fie.\ We know many single ladies, ad- vanced in years, of the most amiable dispositions, of the most extensive be- nevolence, prudent and intelligent, some of them lively and engaging.— But what is an old maid ? We un- derstand an old maid to be an un- married lady, say over forty. Well, is she to. be considered a nuisance because she has no husband ? How many old maids do wc find, who are so \ from choice?\ who, dis- gusted with the flippancy of young men, with the persecutions of folly, the perseverence of fortune hunters, and the imprudence and extrava- gance of gay lovers, voluntarily make choice of a single life, rather than encounter all the dreadful evils of unequal matches. If, on the con- trary, an old maid has not been for- tunate enough to attract and secure a husband, she is eminently entitled to protection, and delicacy, because she is debarred from advantages which men possess, and cannot like them make choice of and obtain a com panion for life. If a single life can be considered a nuisance, it belongs exclusively to bachelors, because, if they are worth having they can pro- cure a wife. They can rove through the harem of beauties ; pluck* the ro- ses from the kindred bushes; they can ask and be refused, and ask a- gain and be successful: If one says no, another, more complying, may say yes. A bachelor has no cause to despair, if he is inclined to marry, and is worthy of confidence. But where is the. redeeming spirit for an old maid, rendered more scrupulous and rigid by age ? She is debarred from all these manly privileges; her vir- tues are never duly estimated ; she cannot nor ought not to break down those barriers which delicacy and propriety prescribe: and, is she, therefore, to be condemned and de- nounced \ a nuisance.\ Where is the age of chivalry ? Has it it lost its influence ? is it the fash- ion to decry where most we should protect? We hope not; and take this occasion not only to protest a- gainst the prevalence of such doc- trines, but the agitation of such ques- tions. They are Calculated to do us great discredit. a night's whom she invited to ing, the identical.\ Lassie lint while locks.\ lddf?-» v*r thd True Honesty.— -Sonde years a|dj two aged men, near Marshakon, tra- ded,- or according to Virginia par* lance mapped horses, on this condi-* tion-r-r-that on that day week, the, one who thought,be had the best of th$ bargain, should pay to the other two bushels of wheat. The day came, and as luck would have it, they met about half way between their respect- ive homes. \Where art thou jgp^ ing ?\ said one, •\ TV thy h@Jse\ with the wheat,' 1 answered the others, \ And whither aft thou riding?\ \ Truly,\ replied the first, « I #as taking the w heat to thy house.\ Fkeh pleased with his bargain j had thought the wheat justly due to his neigh- bour, and was going to pay it%^=—• These were old times.— VillamMec. Burn's lassie. —The young lady who was the subject of Burns' \ las- sie wi' the lint white locks,\ and to whom he says in a letter to Mr. Thompson* we are indebted for some of his best songs, was a Miss L~-e. She was then young and beautiful, and possessed of all that gaity and vivacity which commonly accompa- nies such charms. Although she had many woers, yet none were fortunate enough to win her affections, or wa- ken a kindred passion within her bo- som. At length a military officer paid his addresses to the lovely \ Chloris,\ and \ was a thriving wo- er.\ With him she eloped, and was married. A female relative of Bur ns, who resided with him .at Ellisland, had frequent opportunities of seeing Miss L. at Burns' trouse. That per- son now resides in Mancbline, a»di Was lately much surprised to discov- er k the person of an old woman, Christophe, the late King of Hay ti, who considered it one of his most im- portant duties to cut off the heads of condemned criminals wiuS his own hands, was accustomed to find relax- ation from his numerous occupations, in theatrical amusements. We have seen a copy of a tragedy Iri three acts, in verse, which was represeh~ ted before him in 1817, and.was printed at the j&oyal I*res! of Sdnis-r Sotici. It is entitled Nehvi, the Hai- tian Chief, and is written- by. ther Count de Rosiers, one of the prinei* - pal dignitaries of the Haytian court* The count, like iBsop, was'born a slave; he Was sold on the coast of Guinea, and terminated his studies in a habitation on the plain of Cayes* The scene of the tragedy is laid at Hayti; in 1S02, at the period of Gen. Leclerc's expedition. In a Work produced under such circumstances, it is hardly necessary to sajr, that every virtue falls to the lot of negroes j and in order to afford re- lief to the picture, the poor whites are painted as black as devils. The dedication, which is addressed to Madame Christophe, is a curious piece of writing. It concludes in the following manner i—\It is glori- ous for rtte to possess your' approba- tion, and it is sufficient fop my hap- piness this piece is agreeable id you j for it is with your enlightened taste, as with those radient stars, which,* by a slight degree of conjunctUm with? others more small and obscure, ini** part to them some of their own bril- liancy and magnificence.*' FrOoM this specimen, it tnay be inferred^ that the poets of Europe might profit by taking lessons in flattery from, their brethren in the new world.
