THE CARRIER PIGEON. ^ ' [By Percival.l Come hither thou beautiful rover, ^ Thou wanderer of earth and of a i r ; Who bcarest the sighs of the lover, ?- And bringest him news of his fair : Bend hither thy light v/aving pinion, And show me the gloss of thy neck ; O ! perch on my hand, dearest minion, And turn up thy bright eye and peck. Hero is bread of tlie whitest and sweetestj And there is a sip of red wine ; Though thy wing is the lightest and fleetest, ’Twill bo fleeter when nerved by the vine : I have written, on rose-scented paper. With thy wing-quill, a soft billet-doux, I have melted the wax in love’s taper, ’Tis the color of trUc hearts, sky blue. I have fastened it under thy pinion, With a blue ribbon round thy soft neck; So go from me beautiful minion. While the pure ether shows not a speck: Like a cloud in the dim distance fleeting, Like an arrow he hurries away ; And farther and farther retreating, He is lost in the dear blue of day. The following exquisite stanzas were addressed by Lord Byron to liis Lady, a few monlhs before their separation. There iaa mygtic thread of life, So dearly wreathed with mine alone, That destiny’s relentless knife ftt once must sever both or none. There is a form, on which these eyes Have often gazed witli fond delight; By day that form their joy supplies, And dreams restore it tlirOugh tho night. T h e r e is a voice whoso tones inspire Such tariils of rapture in my breast; I would not hoar a Seraph choir, Unless that voice could join the rest. There is a face whoso blushes tell Affections tale upon the chce’i ; But pallid as one fond farcvrell. Proclaims more love than words can cjioall. There is a lip which mine Imth prost, .\nd none had over pfbsl before : It vowed to make me sweetly IdBet, And mine—‘mine only, prest it more. Therdis abosom-*all my own— Hath pillow’d oft this aching head; A mouth—wliicK smiles on me alone, An eye—whoso tbars with mine are shed. There arc two hekrts whose xrfovements thrill, In unison so closely sweet. That pulse to pulse, responsive still. They both must hcavo or cease to beat. There arc two «oub, whoso equal flow* In gontld streams so calmly run, That when they part—they part—ah n o ! They cannot part—those souls arc one I A JOURNEY “ DO'^^'N EAST.'* ^Ye have hoard o f journeying thro’ the Red sea, dreary wanderings in interminaWe deserts, long travels round the world, and even of a run to Ohio, through mud that covered both pony and rider up to the shirt collar; but never in our lives have we heard any thing to match a late journey of a gentleman, whom we shall de nominate Dickey Driver, down oast. Dickej was a famous well-digger, some where (but no matter about particulars) in the western part of this our good state of Maine; and un dertook, as he supposed, at a most advanta geous bargain, to dig a well for forty-liye'^dol- lars. Having labored with much assiduity till he had arrived at the depth o f nearly^ feet, with afdir prospefct of soon completing his job, Dickey ascended tothese upper regions to' look for a little eleven o'clock, and had just effected his escape,' when, alas! in caved ihd sides of his Fell, and filled it fifteen Ibet* at least, with another mass. Dickey looked over th'b edge, groaned, scratched his head, and fof ti moment pondeferi in the bitterness of his heart, half murmuring out a curse on his cruel stars, for thus doubling his (at best) too heaVy task; but probably never once thought Of feeling grateful to a kind providence for his almost miraculous escape from instant death. Looking around' however, lie saw his coat and hat lying near the margin of the-^ell, ahd a thought struck hint that if he should “ dear o u t/’ as the saying isi his friends and neighbours would, soon discover the situation of thfe WclL uud seeing his coat and Imt4ifber6 he b a d M thom wheD ho de scended, would no doubt consider him buried under the mass that had fallen, and with one consent would joiiS to dig him out, and ttus clear the well. Eo thought, so defermiUed, and away goes Dickey, without coat or hai, not to another world, hut to another part of this. The affair o f the V?eH’s cavipg was soon known [ In the neighborhood, as might be expected; Und all soon'gathered around the fearful gulfithat ^ (as they sup|K>s«d) had clpeed upon Dkkey [No. 12 ivith a dreadful Vengeance.^ After ,fhe iirst surprise and silence were past, one and another Ventured an observation about poqr, Dickey’s lot “ Poor man! he. is no doubt dead.’’ “How he must have felt when he saw the whole earth above falling in U'pOn him !” “ Rut it is all over now.” The relatives seemed to.be quite calm, and it was af length seriously agitated, whether they should dig out the body. Some Were in ^ favor o f that measure j but by a suggestion o f a relative that it was of no use, for he was a^tead]^ well buried, they finally determined to leave* him to his lot, and allow his bones to mingle with the gloomy depths in which they were con fined. ^i’he particulars o f the case soon travel led by way of nOWs to the place of Dickey’s re treat, vVho wa§ so mortified at the resulL that he kept himself out o f hearing for half a year ' being ashamed to return home. At last he thought of an answer to inquiries, which would be plied quickly to his ears, on the first appear ance above ground ; and ivith that he resolved to make a venluVe. Dickey accordingly return ed, and after a little surprise excited in his neighbours the finexpected arrival, tbey be gan to enquire how he managed, to get out, in forming him of their conclusion to let him re main where he buried himself. “ Aye, aye,” says Dickey, “ I know that very well; for I wait ed till 1 found ^dii had abandoned nie, and then > went to work myself to dig o u t; but missing my direction, I had rather, a long job of it, and late ly came dut down in Somerset county,” about fifty miles from starting point’ Beat that Marne Inquirer. THE SABBATH. Extract frdthChalmers' Sermon on the “ Obser vance of ike Sabhath.” We never, id. the whole course of our recol lections, met with a Christiaii friend, who bore upon his character every other evidence of the Spirit’s operation, who did not remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. We appeal to the memory of all the worthies who are now lying in their graves, that, eminent as they were in every other grace and accomplishment of the new creature, the religiousness of their Sabbath day shone with an equal lustre amid the fina assemblage o f virtues which adorned them. In every Christiaii household, it will be found, that the discipline of a well ordered Sab bath is never forgotten amongst the other les-i sons of a Christiaii Education; and we appeal to every individual who now hears us, and who carries the remembrance in his bosonr of a fa ther’s worth and a father’s piety, if on the com ing round of the seventh day, an air of peculiar sacredness did.iiot spread itself over that man sion where he drew his first breath and was taught to repeat his infant hymn, and lisp his infant prayer; Rest assured that a Christian, having the love of God written in his heart, and denying the sabbath a place in his affections, is an anomaly that is no where. tb bb found* Every Sabbath image, and pVery, Sabbath cir cumstance, is dear to him: He loves the quiet ness of that hallow'ed morn. Jle Ibvfes th» church bel) sound which summons him to the house of prayer. He loves to joip the chorus of devotion, aud to sit and listen to that voice of persuasion which is lifted in the heaiping of an assembled multitude. He loves the retire ment of this day from the din of Worldly busi ness, and the inroads of worldly men. He loves the leisure it brings along with i t ; and sweet to bis soul is the exercise of that hour, when there is ho eye to witness him hut the eye of. heaven j arid when in solemn audience, with the Father, who seeth him in secret, he can, on the wings of celestial contemplation- leave all the cares, ifod all the vexations, ana all the secularities of an alienated world hind him. ' 'AcXlvtiy and Indolence ^—^Thl more we do, tfie Etibre we can d o ; the more busy we are, the more leisure we have. If any one possesses any advantage in a considerable degree, he may make himself master of nearly as many more as he pleases; by employing his spare time, and cultivating the waste faculties of his mind. It is not incapacity, but indolence, indecision, men tal tautology, to repeat the,same images and tread the same circle, that Raves us so poor,, so dull, so inert as we are, so naked of acquire ment, so barred ot resources! A Drunkard reformed. —A farmer in England,, who had been many years in the\ practice 0^ coming hojme intoxicated from a market town, one day observed appearances o f rain while in market.

Upon coming intor his house,, one of his children, a boy o f six years old, ran to his mother J and cried out, “ 0 1 mother, fa ther is come home and h e i¬ drunk.” Th© father, who heard this ej^clamation, was so se verely rebuked by if, that h e suddenly became a sober man.
