Tricks of the Chartials.—On Tuesday se'nnight
a man named William Watkins, who was in the
employment of Mr. Powell, as a woodcutter, was
brought before the magistrates, at Newport, on a
charge of inducing a soldier to desert from his regi
meut. It appeared that the prisoner, at an early
hour on Monday morning, met a private of the 29th
regiment (a detachment of which is now stationed
in that town,) named John McDonnald, who ap
peared to be affected by drink. He spoke to the sol
dier, and induced hitn to accompany him to the
house of a man named Young, situated near the Six
Bells, on Stow Hill. Yonug's wife made breakfast
fur them, and while they were there Watkins en
deavoured to prevail on the soldier to desert, as an
inducement he then gave him two half-crowns and
a shpling, and promised to bring him clothes to the
eveciing, in order that he might make his cselipe,
and also promised to give him 15s. per week at work
in the woods, after he had deserted. While drunk
Mcllotinald agreed to do all this, but getting solver
after breakfast, he refused to fulfill his promise,
whereupon a quarrel ensued between him and the
prisoner, and they both left the house of Young,
where the transaction occurred, and went in differ
ent directions. The circumstances conking to the
ears of the officers. information was given to the po
lice, who soon succeeded in apprehending Watkins
and bringing him before the magistrates, when the
above facts having been proved by oath, the pasoher
was convicted in a penalty of L 291 or, in default, to
be committed for three months. Mr. Watkins, not
being ready with the bail, was sent off to ruminate
upon his folly in the House of Correction at I'sk.

The Chem.'s baying now dispersed
,themselves
over the country. and the simultaneous meetings
throughout England being about ended, very little
appears in the newspapers during the last two weeks
with regard to Chartist agitation. Dr. Taylor and
Harney have been present at some meetings Imi Cum
berland, and their speeches are described as being
violent; but what meetings have been held in our
vicinity have been of a moderate description. The
ladies of Sunderland had a grand display last week,
and one Miss and lialf.a dozen Misses moved and
seconded resolutions ; and among the gentlemen
who urged them to pi-severe in changing their con
dition, was one beating the very appropriate name
of Batchelor. he is what Isis name implies, we
should not wonder but hay persuasive eloquence may
be attended with effect. To-olorrow evening the
females of Newcastle give a tea party, at which sev
eral members of the Convention are to be present.—
Tyne Mercury,
Mr. Ilarney.preached a sermon in the New Lee
lute Room iu this town; and Mr. Lowery OLIO in
the evening. Mr. Lowery's discourse was unobjec
tionnble as a political lecture. He certainly firmly
adhered to his own political views, but he argued
the questions lie brought forward very teineerately
and tairly.—ibid.
Chartist Demonsaration at lianchealer.-- This much

and as true- courage a• 41 red coat. He should say,
if they did Ihar, he should have nn , he.tiation" in
advi-ing the people to revolt —that it would be their
duty —against the factions, and in favour of our con
stitutional monarchy. Tho principal resulutico a.

# EULOGY OF ROBERT BURNS.
At the celebration—in Lonistiiile, hentuticv—of
the birthday of Scotland's favorite poet, Mr. Prentice,
of the Louisville Journal, addressed the company
in the following strain of impassionate and thriltirig
eloquence. It is an out pouring of the heart, wor
thy of being placed by the side of the most brilltam
oratOrical passages.
Britain and America assembled to pay Lhr ir 'wart
felt tribute of admiration to diet - Memory of Robert
Burns, the unrivaled minstrel of Scutlutind, whose
fame gathers freshness from the lapse of years, arid,
like the ivy, flourishes greenly over the lone prostra
tion of the lovely and the beautiful. You all know
the history of Robert Burns. The. world knows it
by heart. The 'cottish boy, born in poverty and
obscurity, won bra way through toils, privations and
sufferings, ti one of the loftiest and brightest places
in the history of literature. Ile / avas the child of
misfortune : and mankind still weep over the sor
rows of that genius., and w ill weep over them
forever. He was unfitted for the rough of a
world like this.—The ly re of his soul should have
been fanned but by the air of Eden, and have given
Out his inwic in a heavt my clime ; and who can
wonder that its timed& were jarred and almost bro
ken, when visited by - the tierce winds and IVA is light
nips, and the blasting hurricanes of life. Like the
rainbow, his lone ,prung up amidst clouds of gloom:
but like the rainbow it was a reflection of the sun,
and its arc, though resting upon the earth, was lost
in heaven. The genius of Burns was Universal ; in'
whatever he attempted, his success was perfect. His
talent was all-powerful, whetlitr he 'aimed at the
heart of the lo.tr, or to call forth the loud or the
qUiet mirth of-the votary festivity, to kindle the high
and holy fervor of devotion, to pour his great enthu
siasm for liberty into the soul of the pstriot, or to
nerve ate arm and send the lava-tide of aengence
along the veins of the warrior. If you paes. through
Scotland, you feel his nighty influence every where,
like a universal presence. He has made the wild
and romantic country emphatiatlly his own. His
step is upon her mountains, her braes and her glens
image is reflected from her blue lochs and her
gushing streams—and his name is breathed by her
winds, echoed by her thunders, and chanted by her
Wave sons and 'beautiful qlaughters. "

Novtt PLAN Fon DIiPERSING s Moa.—Our
readers will recolleci that it was statctl•in the pub
lished accounts of the recent riots in this town, that
Mr. Whitney had dispersed a mob by playing a fire
engine on them. We learn tram the Rev. R. L.
Venable'ir Domestic Scenes to Russia, that this plan
is regulaiiy employed for dipersing a drunken mob.
A number of fire engines" were," he says, sta
tioned round the booth, to be useful not only in the
event of fire, but as assistants to police In • keeping
order, sine, in a case of a mob of drunken and dig
oral-fly people assembling at night, an engine play
ing into the midst of them, speedily disperses the
crowd. " We trust, after the recent proof of the
of a deluge of water in'ilispersing a mob, as
well as this statement of Russian practice, fire-en , -
trines will form a regular part of the police appara
tus for qUelling riots. Better moisten the skin than
shout the. carcasses of rioters.—Lirerpool Albion.
The !tine and Uak.— The following beautiful
allegory is from the interesting Igic lieseart bee ul
Henry' Scheo!craft, Esq.:
A %ilia was growing beside a thrifty oak, awl
had just reached that height at which it requires sup
port. "Oak," said the ivy vine, • bend your trunk Si ,
that you inay be a support to me." "My .iupport, •
replied the oak, "is naturally yours, and lon may
rely 041 my strength to bear )ou.up, but I am too
large an] too solid to bend." Put your arms around
me. my pretty tine, and I will manfully support and
cheri,h ;gam if you have an ambition to climb, even
as high its the clouds. N% hale I thus hold you up.
you will 'ornament my rough trunk with your pretty
green knives and shining scarlet berries. They w,h
be as fr lidos to my head,' and I shall stand in the
forest likk a glorious warrgir, with all his plumes
We we 4 made by the Maker of Life to grow togeth
er, that tv our union the weak should be made stro
and the 4trong render aid to the is oak. "
" But 1 wish to grow independentV," said the
vine, " vihy cannot you twine around me, and let
me growl . up straight, and not be a mere dependent
np n yoh " - Nature, " answered the oak, " did
not so 4sign it. It is impossible that you should
grow to any height alone, and if you try it, the
winds and rain, if not your own weight, will bring
you to the ground. Neither is it proper for you to'
turn' yc+ arms hither and von, among .the trues,
The - treeti will begin to say, it is not my vice.—it is
a strangdr—get thee gone, 1 w ill note cherish thee
By this time thou wilt be so entangled among the
ilitkrent :branches, that -thau canst not get bukk to
the oak and nobody w nil then admire thee or pity
thee:'
Ah aw, " "said the eine, "h't me escape from
such a dbstiny ;" and sith this, she twined herself
arout d the 0.,k, and they both grew and flourished
hapinly together.
I had I.aken refuge in a tiarvest lick] belonging to

t‘listing . a rustic wreath—enamelled corn flowers,

fragile hare-bells, mingled with tufts of the, richest
wheat-e4ra— around its hat.

Mtry Hay, the object of his ill-fated pass:inn, was
the daughter of the rt speetable tress ofthe endow
ed -cdool at the other side of the parish. She was
delicat,, interesting creature, with a slight droopitig
figure, and a fair, downcast face, like rt snowdrop,
forming such a cuutrust with her gay and gallant
wooer, us Love, in his vagaries, is often pleased to
bring together. The courtship was secret and tedi
ous, and prob n;t4.l from months to years; for Mary
shrank from the painful contest which she kneir that
an avowal of their attachment would occasion. At
length her mother died; Mid deprived o( a home
and maintainance, she- reluctantly consented to d
private marnage. An immediate discovery ensued;
and was followed by all the evi6‘, and more than all;
that her worst fears had- anticipated. Her husband
was turned from the house of his father ; and,in Tale •
than three months, hiii'desith; i by an inflamatory fe
ver, left her a desolate and pencylesss widow ; un
owned and una ss isted by .the stern parent,' on whose
unrelenting temper neither the death of his son, nor
the birth of his grandien, seemed to make the alightz•
est Impression. Bui for the general sympathy ex
cited by the deplorable situation and blanieless de
pertinent of the vridowa bride, she and het infant -
must have taken refuge in the workhouse. The
whole neighborhood was zealous' to relieve and to
serve them hut their most liberal benefectress„
their most de . voted friend, was poor Dora. Cmisid;
ering her uncle's partiality to herself as the primary
cause of all this_ misery, she telt like a guilty crew=
tore"; and casting off, her native timidity and habit=
ual submission, she had repeatedly-braved his 'anger,
'ay the most earnest supplications col...mercy and for
pardcin ; and when this proved unavailing', she tri
ed to mitigate. their distress by all the asssistance
thriller small means could admit—Every shilling
of her poekt t money she expended on her.slear cous
ins; worked for them, begged for them, and trans
ferred to them every present that was made to her-
Alt. front the silk frock to a penny tartlet. Every
thing that was her own site gave, bat nothing of her
uncle's.; fur thou, It sorely tempting to transfer some
the plenty around her to those whose claim secu
ed so juar, um! whose need was so :urgent, Dora felt
that she roust prote herself trustworthy. -
Suet was the posture of arruim at thO time of my
encounter with Dora and httle Walter iu the hat-
vest field : the rest will be beat told in tite course of
our dialogue:—
And so madam, I cannot bear to see my 'dear
cousin Mary.so sick and so melancholy and the
dear, dear child, that aling-might. be proud of
only look nt him !" exclaimed Dorah, interrupting
herself, as the beautiful child, sitting on the ground,
in ail the placid dignity of infancy, looked up at - me.:
and smiled to my face.. Orly look at. him !" con
tinued she, and think of that dear boy and his dear
mother, living on dimity, and they my uncle'alaw
ful heirs, whilst I, that have no right whatsoeverom
claim, none at all—l that compared to, them, em but
a far-off kins-woman, the mere creatures of hishoein
ty should revel in comfort in plenty, und.theY
wing I cannot bear it, and I will not. And. then ,
the wrong that he is doing himself; he, that is real- .
ly so good and kind, to be called a hard-hearted ty
rant by the whole country side. And he is unhap
py himself, to; I know he is. So tired as becomes.
home, he will walk about his room half the

and often nt meal times, he will drop hiskaitix and
fork, and sigh so heavily ! He may rum me out of
d'oors, as he threatened; or what is *arse, c ll me
'ungrateful or undutiful, but he shall see his boy."
