' LIBERTY TO ATRENS. • BY PEEOIVAL. The flag of freedom floats, once more Arouttd the lofty Parthenon j It waves, as wav’d the palm o f yore. In days departed long and gorie*; As bright a glory, from the skms, , Pours down its light around those towr’s, And once again the Greeks arise, , As in their country’s nobleftit hours ; Their swords' are girt in virtue’s cause, Minerva’ssacred hill is free— O ! may she keep her equal laws. While hian shall live, and time fihairbo. The pride o f all her shrines went down; The Goth, the Frank, the Turk, had reft The laurel iroin her civic crown j Her helm by many a sword was c le ft; She ley among her ruins low— Where grew the palm, the cypress rose - And, crushed and bruised by many a blow She cower’d beneath her savage foes ; But now again she springs from earth, Her .loud, awakening trumpet speaks; She rises in a brighter birth, And sounds Tedompl|pn to the Greeks. It is the classic jubilee— Their servile years have roll’d away; Tlie clouds that hover’d o ’er them flee ; They hail the dawn of freedom’s day; From heaven tlio golden light descends, The times of old are on the ■wing. And glory tliero her pinion bends. And beauty wakes a* fairer spring; The hjlls o f Greece, her rocks, her waves. Are all in triumph’s pomp array’d , A light tliat points their tyrant’s graves, Plays round feach bold Athenian’s blade. The Parthenon, the sacred slirihd, Where wisdom held her pure abode; The hill o f Mars, where light divine. Proclaim’d the true, but unknown God j Whore jurtico held unyielding sway, And trampled all corruption down. And onward took her lofty way To reach at truth’s unfading crown; Tiie rock where liberty was full, Where eloquence her torrentifroll’d, And loud, against the. despot’s rule A knell the patriot’s fury toll’d ; The stage, whereon tlio drama rpt^e, In tones, tUat seem’d the words of heav’n. Which made llie wretch in terror shake. As by avenging furies driv’n ; The groves and gardens, wbpre the fire Of wisdom, as a fountain, burn’d. And every eye that, dar’d aspire To truth, lias long in worship turn’d ; The halls arid porticos, where trod Tbe moral sage, severe, unstain’d, And where the intellectual god In all the light of science reign’d : The Bcliools, where rose in symmetry The simple, but majestic pile. Where marble Uirew its roughness by, To glow, to frown, to weep, to smile, Wlicre colours made the canvass live, Wlierc music roll’d her flood along, And all the charms, that art can give. Were blent with beauty, lovoj and song: The port, from whoso capacious womb Her navies took their conquering road, The heralds of an awful doom To all, who would not kiss her rod r On these a dawn of glory springs— These trophies of her brightest fame t Away the long-chained city flings Her weeds, her shackles', and her shame. Again her ancient souls awake, Harmodius bares anew his sword; Her sons in wrath their fetters b||ak, And firecdom is their only lord. H B a s r a u A x i r i r . From the London Literary Magnet. THEAUTO-BI6GRAPHY OF A SPOILED CHILD. Tbe to(rth-acbe i§ a plague—and a stu pid neighbour who comes to spend long afternoons with one, is a plague;—and so is a * managing’ wife,—and a ‘ higlily ac complished’ sister; and a friend with too ‘fine feelings;’—^but without doubt the plague of a yet greater magnitude, is, a Spoiled Child! To have, however, this plague of plagues in perfection, a person must neither belong to, nor have any con trol over, the little Miss or M aster; as then, there would at least be this consola tory reflection-—‘ I did the mischief—/ spoiled the childT No; the unhappy wight must he governess, or nurse, or eldest sister; or hold isome official situa tion, by virtue which, she is required to manage, withofft being allowed to master. Then there is no putting tears in to type; or sighs into letter-press; or the daily-and hourly sorrows of one who thus lives with spoiled children, into w'ords I Yet 1 do dearly love children of all de scriptions, whether spoiled or unspoiled; trowse^ed, of; petticoated—^in a poem, a picture or a cradle I So long as they re- piain in jthejse, thpirjsilent spheres, no one can ppgak with more sincere delight tba,n myself, o f ‘ infantine simplicity’^ * engag ing prattle’— ' driwpinglnlelligeuce’— ‘ the morn of life’— the spring time of exist ence'—etc. ; but i am fain to confess, that too often when the buds o f beauty con^- forth living realilies-i—^no longer the child hood of .poetic fancy,, but the childhood 4f cries, ctuestjons, ancl sugar-candy,— my a t-’ dor abates, my admiration degenerates,; and on the first opening I am prone to tear myself away from thesweet little cherubs! There aire ex'ceplions to this, as to every, other rule, but as a general assertion, I like* children as 1 4 0 wind instruments* a good way off ! In both cases, ’Tia difitandri lends enchantnlent to the sound ! I am not going to trouble the reader with any details of the various afflictions I have suffered through the agency of spoiled' children, which have induced this others wise unpardonable Want of Cqipplacericy towards the whole specie's. My present office is merely to transcribe the auto-hi- ograpiiy of an unfortunate urchin as noted down by himself; and one melancholy moral at least, may he extracted from the record,^—one, that over fond parents, and too kind friends Would do well to consider; namely, that if a spoiled child is a plague to others, he is a misery to himself I ‘ T h e child is father to the m a n —charaefer, habits, dispositions* and tastes, my be formed in maturer life by commerce with the world, but they are founded in the nur sery and the first stages of education. It is time, however, my infant hero spokeTor himself. M. J. J. “ I am very unhappy, and yet to-day I am eight years old, and I h-ave a pony, and a dog, and a watch, and a hunting whip of my own, and I have no brothers and sis ters to plague me, and I have no need to try to please any body hut myself, and yet I am not happy, and I never have been— never. I do not know the reason why, but J shall write down all thetlisagreeable things that ever happened to me ; and per haps some one else may find out the rea son for me. “ 'rhe first disagreeable thing I remem ber, is, that when I was n very little child, people shewed me pretty things they did not intend toe to have ; my mamma allow ed me to raminage the contents oflier desk and work-box, and to have the orna ments 'from the chimney-piece, and I thought other people should do so too, but they did not, and they always seemed glad when I was sent out of the room. When I cried in the nursery, or in the kitchen, the servants gave me sugared bread-and- butter ; and when I cried again, because it made me sick, they slapped me for being cross. I was very sorry when I had finish ed cuttingmy teeth, for all the while they were coming I never did any thing wrong; Ido remember sqeezing the canary-bird to death, and kicking and scratching every body I came near, and knocking down every thing 1 could rc^ach, and crying from morning till night,—but my mamma said it was ‘all owing to my teeth ;’ a great many people though said that a good d eaf was owing to my temper.^ By-afad-by 1 grew^ tired of being a baby ; quite tired of sugared bread-and-butter, my rattles, and my softball, and nurse’s ring of keys, and every thing in the nursery; and I tvas very glad when I began to go into the dining room -after dinner, and in*o the drawing room when there was company. It did not matter how naughty I had been all day, the ladies there always called me pretty* and good ; my neck was very white, and my hair hung down in curls, and my eyes felt very bright, and I was always very nicely dressed—^I suppose it was looking pretty made me good—nobody ever called me good at any other time. Those ladies were very fond of me, tliey laughed at every word I said, not one of them ever scolded me when I was riide, every one tried to praise me more than another; and *ivhen I was very noisy and rude indeed, the gentlemen seid I had a noble spirit.— After a time I grew older] then my neck got tanned with the sun, my hair gave over curling, I began to cast my teeth, and look very pale and thin, and not at all pretty. The doctor said it was because I had eaten too many sweeflbings; my mamma could not now say it was ‘ owing to my teelbf so she laid the fault on my nurse’s careless ness. I ^vas put into proper boy’s clothes, and for a little while 1 was glad, hut I soon wished for my nankeen frock, a n J curling hair, and white neck again; for when I went into tbe drawing room the la^ms'did not take so much notice o fm e a s tbey us^d to do; no one called toe pretty and good any nnore. I talked and Jumped more than ever, but instead of laughing a t me, and saying 1 hadL* a noble spirit,’ I beard the ladies and gentlemen whisper to’ each other that I was a spoiled child. After this time 1 grew still more unhappy, t did not like the drawing room because no o n e ' toojft .any notice o f me< riW: | , h ? i t e i . ^ nursery, because Bqrfe?F5s;Mway%biddm| good, arid nobody ^aright me hoW. tphe ^irdid Hy One <% td be gdpd brodusedhey ioja.ifi^'I sIibuM hdbappy r J dM M t$f, ^ td make: myf mamipa^s, head-ache tease my ’ papa Whh-';question» at dinrier < nor ra yel mirse’s cotton balls; nor gOt into, mischief ;^feo having bothing to do, got sad-r ly t ired o f betnj; go5d before night j X made upmty .mind to be haughty i^ain thgi Inoming.* But l d i d iTot gel any ha|H pier.
