.. •
Our townsman, Mr. HARBISON HALL, 80111 e
years ago,- published icSolections from tho
Writings of Mrs. Sarah Hall, (his mother,)
with a Memoir of.her Lite." He overlooked
a striking poem, from her pen, published in
.1825, in , c The'Pertfolio," to which able and
Once popular periodical she - extensively con
tributed; and of which ono of. her eons was
editor for several years. In vol.P,nf

phla, who certainly had never seen the original
sondot :
ITALIAN SONNET.
There'll no God, the fool in secret said—
There is no God that ruing on earth, or sky 1 1
Tear off the band that_ folde the wretch's head;`
That God may burst upOn his faithless eye.
'Ye there no God ',—the etare in myriads spread,
If he look up, the blasphemy deny,
Whilst hie own features In the mirror read,
Reflect the image of Divinity.
Is there no God 9—the stream that silver flows,
The air he breathes, the ground he treads, the trees,
The flowers, the grass, the sands, eaoh wind that blowai
All spe.tk of God ; throughout one TOM agrees,
And eloquent his dread existence shows : -
Blind to thyself, ah, see him, fool, in these. ' "
As we have said, the lady in question was
Mrs. SARAH HALL, author of a Conversations
'on the Bible," and, as her writings show, a
very gifted woman. Her poem, written with
out having seen the Sonnet, is as follows, and
we have pleasure in reproducing it:
LINES IVRITTUN IN A LADY'S ALBUM.
" There is no God the fool bath said,"' '
The senseleiv ask, where le he? Who bath seen
His glorious form? What space contains him?
Ask not, but look around—not hero, not there,
But ev'ry where he dwells, an all-pervading God!
Dont thou not see, not hear I—creation spooks,
Creation sings, in ono untiring anthem singe,
The eternal being of efficient cause
Sprang all this beanty,'ordsr, life from nought,
Did intellect—that very intellect that moves
The sceptic's daring soul to Impious thought— a
Did that inform a mese of torpid clay
Without superior energy to bid it live?
All use the noble gift, all-adequate, and know
Thy Benefactor ! on thy right he stands,
And on thy left. He spread the teeming earth
Beneath thy feet to minister and charm;
And crown'd its glories with the vaulted sky.
He rained the mountains from their lowly beds,
Andes and Alps in either hemisphere,
And taught them where to check their aspiring lambi
Amidst the mantling donde. Hie hand conceal'd
In their capacious treasuries the gem,
And gave the latent lustre, and the hue.
Trees, herbs, and Dowers, at His command, perform
The work assiguld—put forth their leafy arms
To tremb'e in the breeze, or rear on high
Thal, 'fearieee heads to brave the reckless blast—
Nourlah the healing balsam, or diffuse
Toeir grateful fragrance through the recipient air.
Vain art of man ! How limited, how weak !
Stan given to earth inanimate the seed;
Thus far—no further can he go—his power is staid.
Sends he the genial warmth, the eoft'aing dew,
The early and the latter rain ?', Not Mat; :
Omnipotence alone—the gifts are hie.
He curves - the tendril, hangs the clustering - vine,
?double to infinity unnumbered forms,
And tints all nature with nnnumb , red dyen.
- could m.l—aura mustier, scamp one wondrous gulph
The etore•bouso of the deep ? Power, nuareated power,
Gplifts the pondrona waves, and bids them meet
The impending cloud, whilst the pale mariner
In trembling safety guides bin fragile bark,
An atom in the elemental war
In there a God ? Go ask whence order comes.
Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, take their rounds,
They come—they pace—rsturn, each in his time,
From that auspicious hour when chaos lied.
Io there a God ? Who made that mass of light,
Who placed it In the glowing heav'ne, and cuark , d
His annual never•deviating couree ?
Those other sparkling suns that cheer the night—
Resplendent Skies, Rummel - Pi baleful star,.
Orion and Arcturus, to beautify
This lower sphere ; while thousands shine beyond,
Far from the vulgar gaze, and scarcely found
By searching science with her utmost aids ?
There, order reigns, and harmony presides.
Confusion never vielts thine bright realms,
Though frightful comets bring their glaring trains
Across the vast domain, and furious storms
Would seem to war against the g'orions Mote.
These aro His works ; their voice Intelligent
Gore forth, and epochs, wherever man is found,
The eternal being of Eilloient Canoe
These, and much more than mortal eye can reach !
And all, for, far beyond the feeble grasp
Of mortal intellect. But most of all,
Thyself examine, proud, ungrateful man !
‘‘ But little lower than the angels made :”
And, if thou canst—withhold from God the praise.
Mr. HARBISON HALL thus writes to us:
"Recently, in looking over the poems of Mrs.
Sigournoy, I was struck by the similarity of a few
lines by her on the same subject. In reply to a
note addressed to her, she says•: ' 'have never had
the ploasuro of seeing the beautiful lines of your
mother, on the being of a Clod, oxoopt in your own
fair chirography. Your proposition to publish
with them my own brief poem, on a rimilar theme,
would bo pleaaingrto mo if you desire it.' Oblige
me by now placing the three together, to forestall
any one who may undertake to charge olihor lady
with plagiarism, and in order to show how exactly
two women of a superior order of intellect, may
think alike end express themselves in nearly the
same words."
Wo here subjoin Mrs. SmoUrtNEY'S stanzas,
suggested by the words in the 14th Psalm of
DAVID, "The fool bath said in his heart,
There is no God."
NO GOD !
'' Vo Goa t'o Gott !" the simplest flower,
Thnt on the wild in found,
Shrinks, en It drink, Its cup of dew,
And trembles at the round .
No Gcd "—astonished Echo cries
From out her cavern boar,
And every wandering bird that flies
Reproves the Athelat•lore.
The solemn forest lifts its head,
The Almighty to proclaim,
Tho brooklet, on its crystal urn,
Dinh leap to grave his name.
How swells the deep and vengeful sea,
Along bis billowy track,
The red Vesuvius open his mouth
To hurl the fablehood back.
Th• paltn-troo, with its princely crest,
The cocoa's loafs shade,
The brbad•fruit bonding to its lord,
in yen far-lelarid glade
The winged seeds, thg. borne by winds,
The roving sparrodif feed,
The melon, on the deeert sands,
Confute the scorner's creed.
No God !" With indignation high
The fervent Bun ix Mired,
And the pale Moon turns paler still,
At such an impious word :
And from their burning thrones, the Eters
Look down with angry eye,
That thug a worm of duet should mock
Eternnl majesty.
There are coincidences of thought and lan
guage in these poems--but each writer has
put the stamp of her own idiosyncracy upon
her own production. Mrs. HALL'S is a solemn
and majestic strain, evidently emanating from
a mind deeply imbued with strong religious
feeling, and, at the same time, possessing the
reasoning faculties in no ordinary degree. Mrs.
SIGOURNt;Y runs into a lyrical and less concen
trated form and expression. Both are highly
poetical, for both are true,
And Bong to but the eloquence of Truth."
A correspondent of the New York Herald,
who protonds to " know some horse," says that the
following is all that comprises Mr Raroy's seorot
of horse-taming: "Haring haltered your colt and
caressed him, fasten his near fore foot with a
strong strap round the pastern radius or fore arm;
make him hop round on three legs until tired.
When ho is tired, put a strap,with a noose round
the off pastern ;. make him hop; then pull the strap
that is round. the off pastern and he will cemO on
his knees: When on his knees keep the strap
tight. and ho 6111111ot get his foot slack to get up.
Boarogainst the horse's shoulder with yours stead
ily, When ho will lie down in a low minutes.
11 ben he is .down stroke him the way the hair
lies ; ,take off the strap as soon as he ti down. You
can now do anything with him you Wish, Or beat a
drum on him, , without alarming him. Opts
rate on your horse in this .manner as often as the
ocnasienrequiree."
cIIARLES. DICIS,EAS„
Within the last ton days,' statements, have
appeared in several American papers, purport
ing, to be Irons portions of their «London
eorrespoAdence," to the • effect •that Mr.
CHARLES DIOILEN.9 had separated from his wife,,
under circumstances of aggravated immorality
upon his part. Two actresses:were named, in
connexion with this—viz: 31iss TERNAk and
Miss SEIMINVICK, both of whOm have borne ;
and continue to boar, good.private characters.
We did , not republish these statements; nor
even allude to them, from a suspicion (parti

wholly untrue, or, at any rate, much exagge

[For The Press ]
Mn. EDITOR : Some men are evidently snore
friendly to Gireat.Britain,,and " the late lamented
Robert Peel," than to this country or, Ile indus
trial population. "No Englishman regrets the
adoption of free-trade," but every intelligent and
patriotic American does—for his own country.
In the adoption of free-trade in England, the
poor or laboring classes were not.,
,nrimarily,
thought of ; they were the scape-goats -for the
achievement; that is, popularity for the measure .
was acquired by expressions of benevolence for
the people. Mr. Cobden wished Cheap broad for
the manufacturers, those he worked for, and for
thus aiding them with competi-power they subse
rviently enriched him. Sir Robert Pool, with the
sagacity of a British statesman, saw the necessity
and advocated the propriety of the landed in
terest making an apparent sacrifice by adopting
free-trade—such as it was—for the purpose of
maintaining still longer the- oommeroial, manu
facturing, and politioal pro-eminence of Great
*Rain ; seeing that the United States, following
in her footsteps, and advancing to perfection in
-her polioy, would, if she were not deluded or
amused by an ignis beans, force her in a few
years to her culmination; and, hence, to the
point of retrocession, with rapid strides . in that
direction, to the condition of a third-class power
on this earth.
donsecutive protection, for any tifteon years since
1816, would have enabled us to have manufactured
the bulk of our own cotton and wool, and to have
occupied the open market of the world with our
manufactures, to the exclusion of Groat Britain.
But it has been tho work of the politician, not the
statesman—and by misleading the people they
have effected It—to keep the people in that condi
tion of Industrial dependence and rnssalogo, - from
which their forefathers extricated them by their
patriotism, their fortunes, and their blood. We
hare, as a people possessing every olomea of inde
pendence, been the slaves of deception long enough,
and it is time we comprehended that feet, and,
also, that neither as a nation nor as individuals
can we spend more than our earnings or income,
for any groat length of time, without becoming
bankrupt.
Human orodulity has boon played upon by poli
ticians in every shape and form, till the mind
sickens at the national industrial
.dogradation and
misery, which aro the consequences. To sustain
an unholy and unfeeling orunade against Ameri
can labor for political ends, ovory tortuosity of the
human mind has been brought into service, oven
to the substitution of offcot for cause. Banks have
boon dragged into the issue, as if they wore a
cause and not an effect. Let us, as a nation, so
arrange our policy as not to import more than we
export—detaining al home the precious metals—
and in a few years we shall need no banks of
issue—every dollar of paper being, as at would ho,
displaced by the sustitution of gold anti silver.
It is only by reckless and contitmallnvolvement
for what we could, and should, produce at home
under a judicious policy; thfit we are compelled to
resort to paper, with whioh•to bolster' up out cre
dit, and avert, for the time being only, revulsion
and insolvency.
We, at the North, haVe submitted long enough
to the dictation of the't§outh in regard to our
gOvernmental 'policy.' We have, we hope had be
lieve, made the last sacrifico of our economical
rights and Interests—identical with' every other
portion of our country, if like us, it will diversify
its labor—for tho purpose of preserving a thew nay
qua tbrium; or maintaining the relative political
importance and power, in this Union, of those
States wedded to nothing but slavery,
and with
which slavery is paramount to every other consi
deration in the administration of the Federal

Mrs. Barron : With the exception of the pen of
G. P. It. James, there is, nothing beneath the eon
or moon more prolific than the glorious or, dial•
greenifie weather. It is the old man's daily
„
bread, and the old'dame'd Morning and evening
tea; it is the traveller's thought, the invalid's
hopo—:the wanderer's trust, the lover's openiag
spieoh—and the beginning, middle, and end of all
rational and irrational conversation. In addition
to all this, my deer Colonel, fear my
,frequesit
mention of it will lead you to think that it is my
convenient lobby, but of late it has been such as
to arrest the attention of every individual in our'
midst During the past forty-eight • hours it has
rained as it never reined since the' days of Noah.

the attention, and the hospitality extended to them
by the 'citizens of 'Pittsburgh. -
An immense quantity of lumber has been sent
from the upper Allegheny during the present sox
eon. I lenrn froni the Chronicle that six millions
three hundred and forty-eight thohsend 'feet 'of
sawed lumber have Moon sent from Red Bank
creek. The square timber sent from the sumo
place this season amounts to 1,617,3313 feet, and is
valued at $113,204. The vaine of the sawed and
square stuff is upwards of two hundred thousand
dollars—a considerable revenue for a place so ob
scure as to have escapedthe attention of the geo
grapher and historian, and 'whose very name is
unknown by nine-tenths of this community The
lumber from the Mahoning Is equal to that of Red
Bank, while that annually carried off by the Cla
rion river more than doubles in amount and value
that of the other places I have named.
Prom lumber to coal the transition is easy. Our
operations in the latter business have bean so
enormous that they almost stagger credulity. A
pedantic) individual, of whom we have all rend or
hoard, carried a brick in his band as a specimen
of the house he wished to sell. I pretreat you with
ono item In the coal line, as a mere strew, indica
tive of tho extent of our operations in "black
diamond." Sines the first of January, 1818 to the
last part of May, a period of five months, there
were shipped through the looks of the Monongahe
la Navigation COmpany, in boat and' barges,
11,257;518, and in flats, 1,583.700, making a total
of nearly thirteen millions bushels of the beat coal
in the United Staten.
These statements will 'give your renders a slight
knowledge ofthe wealth and resources of this part
of Pennsylvania. Viewing our good old Common
wealth in every. light, we have abundant reason
for pride and congratulation. With a length of
three hundred end ten miles, and a breadth of
one hundred spit sixty miles, and nn area of forty-
ITOTOW thousand square Miles, or thirty millions o'
sores of land, with' navigable 'streams, fertile
and vast forests,' inexhaludible mineral
wealth, and a patriotio, an intelligent, end enter
prising population, our State must ever rennin
the' Keystone of the Arefi. and, the most promi
nent member of the groat North,Amerionn Union.
Like a coy and modest damsel, Pennsyl
vania has hitherto ehnnned, rather than court
ed, •ebservation. It is time for her to as
sert her, own importance, to cultivate a
feeling of commendable State pride,. and make
known her wealth and resources to - her sisters of
the,Confederney. Nature has dOne wonders for
her; intelligence and wisdom must do.the rest.
We-must select good legislators, and thus Secure,
Abe - paw:ago of good laws, justly administered.
:Look at, our State Legislature. Throe-feurths,of
its members aro unable to.draw up a bill in com
'mon English, and nine-tenths are as ignorant of
'the Science of government as of the language of
the Choctaws. Look at our representatives at
Washington. They are doubtless honest and pa
triotic enough, hut too often their knowledge . is
cabined, cribbed, confined, while their attempts at
oratory are as laughable as a side-splitting farce,
and as euecessful as the late efforts of the
'accomplished Billy 'Bowlegs. I would not wil
lingly do injustice to our Senators and Congress
men, but truth and candor compel ma to say that
their intellectual superiors can be found in every
workshop, counting-house, and harvest field In the
Commonwealth: "Pigmies are pigmies still,
-,Cry.se and IYErallllia. ELIV,
pyramids in vales." Compared with, Sewer and
Toombs, Benjamin arid Hattie, Crittenden 'and
Quitman, they shrink into utter' Insignilleanee;
and seem like babes in swaddling-clothes iii the
presence of full-grown, educated; and intelleotlial
statesmen. Pennsylvania, 'to be respected, must
honer her sons, and the proper way to do so is to
send them to Ilarrisimrg and Washington, the
chosen and cherished representatives of, her groat
interests: " • ' .

knelt in prayer with the meekness of Christian
women and the humility of contrite sinners.
Our firemen' have always been well behaved;
still prayer will make them wiser, better, and
happier. It strengthens the weak, determines
the doubting, exalts the debased, and points to
" Heaven, and lends the way " It purifies the

The Grave of the Mother of Washington
For Tho Prose.]
Mn. EDITOR : Some years since I passed through
the nnoiont town of Fredericksburg, Va., and on
my way topped to visit the grave of the venerated
mother of Washington, and was pained to find it
in such a pitiable condition. An unfinished mon.
umour, already apparently in ruins, marked the
spot, but around it seemed to me a mere cow
yard, and the whole pines wore an aspect of decay
anti desolation unworthy the burial place of the
mother of the " Pater Fatrie." On inquiry, only
a few weeks slate. of a citizen of Fredericksburg,
I learned that it is still in the some condition, but
that Silas E. Burrows who cotnitteneed the monu
ment, and is now in Japan, says that ho will finish
it or direct in his will that his son should do so.
It is the opinion in Fredericksburg that it will
never be done. Now, I contend that no indivi
dual man should•be honored by erecting a monu
ment to the mothei of Washington • her character
and her memory are tho property of the women
of the United States, and to therh belongs the
entire honor of erecting a monument worthy of her
who gave birth and was the first to instil virtuous
principles into him who was " first in war, first in
ponce, and first in the hearts of his countrymen."
I trust this hint will be sufficient to incite the
ladies of the United States to some action on the
subject. Let the women of the South and the
women of the North join in erecting a durable
and elegant monument over the remains of
" Mary the mother of Washington," and it may
bo a shrine where they may moot to honor the
mother of him whose memory tho world delights
to honor. O•

up by that gentleman, may be considered the most
notable :
Resolved, That wo recognise, assort, and will
maintain, the right of, the people of every Terri

solves,when prepared to become a State, the form
and haracter of their Constitution; and that
every attempt, on the part of the Osmond Govern

way the free enjoyment of that right, is an irregu•

By, the brig:Wheaton, which arrived at New
York on Sunday from St. Domingo, we aro in re
°Ginter advices from Port Platte to thb Sd instant,
and from Santiago do los Caballeros, the-republi
can capital, to the Ist. .
The operations against Baez continue to be pro
secuted with all the vigor possible in the dilapi
dated atm° of the country. • The torrwof Seinen%
was captured, on the 4th of May, by a party of
republican troops, and in consequence of this event
the fleet of Baez, that was blookading Port Platte.
abandoned the blockade on the oth. They. had
been board from at Saone island, where they
stopped to fill water, when a boat's ortNideserted
to the other side. •
General Santana was in command of the ropub•
Goan forces before St. Domingo pity, numbering
some 7,000 men, and was waiting the co-operation
of the republican fleet, when a - general assault
would be made on the town.
The fleet had fitted out at Fort Platte, where a
large quantity of shells, shot, a-Id other munition
of war shipped from New York had been received.
It consisted of six schooners, among which was the
late American schooner Wing o 1 the Wind, which
recently ran the blockade, and was purchased by,
the Dominican Government for $6,000. They were
armed with one eighteen and several twelve and
six pound guns, manned by a mixed crew of all
colors and nations, and commanded by Commodore
Dickson, an English mulatto. A portion of this
fleet was manned by volunteers, and it went to
sea on the 26th May, but was still exercising off
the port at our latest dates.
It was thought that a decisive encounter might
occur between the two fleets, and the political
troubles of the country be settled for a time by a
naval conflict. The Baez fleet consists of one
barque and eight schooners, with an armament
similar to that of the republicans; but two or
three of the vessels were detailed from the squad
ron, and were blockading Anna and other porlsron
the south aide of the island. It is manned mostly
by mullattoes and some Ilaytien negroes, and is
commanded by Commodore Aybar, a mulatto from
Ilayti.
This fleet has taken the following prizes : The
Danish packet schooner running between St.
Thomas and Port Platte; the Danish schooner
Crisis, of Curacoa; and the British schooner Crimea.
The first two have been condemned, and theircar.
goes, valued at from 500,000 to $50,000, bad been
sold. as there was no Danish man-of-war to protect
their flag. The English schooner had heen taken
from the captors, and was lying under the guns of
an English frigate in the harbor of St. Domingo.
The condition of the country is of the most de
pressed character. Provisions were scarce and dear.
and the export trade low. There was little interest
felt by the common people in the political struggle
that wee going on—they eating only for quiet.
A new constitution had been adopted, and the
elections hold resulting in favor of Don Jose Val
verde, President; Don Domingo Rojas. Vice Pre
sident. The leading man of the Government is
Don Pablo Pujol, Secretary of the Treasury. All.
the republic, with the solo exception of St. Do
mingo city, now acknowledges the new constitu
tion.
. .
It is the policy of the Government to abandon
St. Domingo city, and concentrate all the trade
and activity of the island rit Santiago and Port
Platte on the north side, as being nearer the pro
duotive districts, and more advantageous to all
interests.
Tho new Government had called in all the old
treasury'or Government paper, and issued new in
its steed, in order to be able to reject the issue of
the Baez Government at St. Domingo. The
amount redeemed was about $28,000.000. The
now issue forms the entiro circulation of the
country, and its money value is one cent to the
dollar. The old paper is still in use in the oity of
St. Domingo. where its rotative value is $36,000
for a Spanish ounce, or $l6 American currency.
Trade is beginning to concentrate at the new capi
tal—Santiago do los Caballeros—which is in the
interior, about ten leagues distant from Porto
Platte, on the north side of the island.
We hare no later news from the United States
steam frigate Colorado, at St. Domingo, than the
24th ult. She had arrived there to demand re
dress for the insults and injuries' inflicted on
Americans in that city.
A project is on foot to build a railroad on
the west side of the river, to connect with tho Sun
bury and Erie road at Lewisburg, and extend to
opposite Dauphin, whore it will form a link with
the designed extension of the Lebanon Valley Rail
road. The objeot of the road is to endeavor to ob
tain a large share of the groat trade that must
eventually go over the Sunbury and Erie Rail
road, over a lino that centres at Philadelphia, in
stead of permitting it to go to Baltimore, as it
otherwise Will, by the Northern Central road. The
Selinsgrove Democrat is certain the road will be
built.

rested by Officer Kauffman, yesterday, on .the
charge. laid in Buffalo, of poisoning a man with

her father held the military rank of Major General
under the Duke of Baden-Bn den' that for font years
she rode by his side,arrayed in the warlike garments
of the other sex, in which unwomanly character
she visited Rueain, Algiers, and many other places,
and terminated her career of soldier by getting m ar
rled and coming to America some ten years ago. She
lived with her husband, Schwartz, near Danville,
New York,for seven years, when a woman from
Europeorith three children, made her appearance,
and sot up a prior claim to the husband. The
claim appearing to be well founded, Carolina left
lf in, went to Now York, and made an arrange
ment of convenience with another man, with whom
she started for Chicago. At Buffalo, it is alleged,
she poisoned him to obtain $6OO in money which
he had with him. The name of the man is not
known here. An officer from Bunk. came here
lest week. sitice when search has been made for
the ;moused. She was found and arrested as stated,
