FROM THE MASSACHUSETTS MAGAZINE. THE CELL OF SOLITUDE. D IM as the fleeting visions of the night, A dark lower tott'ring clos'd th' extended view ; While round its spires, illum'd with feeble light, The flitting bat, and boding raven flew. Rent was the hanging arch—the domes o'erthrown ; Nor tread was heard along the distant pile, Save when the troubled ghost with hollow moan, Strode flow'.v o'er the long rtffounding isle. One only cell withstood the waste of time, 'Twas where a turret rear'd its moss clad brow ; Gloomy it flood in falling pomp iublime, And fliow'd the mould'ring wrecks around below. Here on her hand her drooping head reclin'd ; Wrapt in fwect musing fat the lonely power; Penftve (he fat and heard the howling wind Die, faintly murm'ring round her ivy'd bower. In graceful ringlets fell her amber halt! Black as ihe raven's plumes her mantle flow'd ; No cupids round her fan'd ilie sullen air; No ftftive echo checr'd her lone abode. Bnt the wild harp that to the blast complains, Sooth'd with melodious plaint her raptur'd ear j Deep, solemn, awful roll'd the varying strains, Such drains the feraphiins with transport hear. FROM THE COLUMBIAN CENfINEL, MR. RUSSELL, TT is said to be in agitation, immediately on A the arrival of official accounts of o|en hostili ties between the Patriots of France, and their enemies, to set oil foot a plan for rai in<* a body of American Volunteers, to embark as°foon as possible for France. The idea was tic fuggefled from a doubt that the French Freemi 11 are not able to cope with their slavish enemii —or that they wanted any thing to Simulate tl ;m to glo rious conquest ; but merely to evince the grati tude of Americans—and once more o mingle their blood with those of their allies, n defence of the rights of human nature. Shot d the idea be carried into effect, there is not a oubt that the government of the United State! and the individual Hates, will make ample pf>vifion for the support and transportation of Patriot Volunteers. Ihe Legislature of Maflachufetts, now in session, would do themselves immortal honor, by being the firft to provide, on their part, in cafe the project succeeded, for those who would go from this Hate.
