LAURA has pass’d youth's earliest prime, A sweet, but rather faded Bower: But LAURA’S charms, invidious Time ! Defy thy beauty-spoiling power. without fair JULIA’S lip or check, To fascinate the sensual eye, LLAURA’S diviner beauties speak, And to the heart resistiess fly. They dwell not in the dimplie’s place, Nor in the eye’s seductive roll : They shine in many a namcless grace, A bright intelligence of SOUL. Happy the man whose amorous sigh That breast to tender thoughts shall moye—- On whom that soul-illumin’d eve Shall beam with intellectand LOVE. — MORTALITY AND IMMORTALITY: BY S. OSBORNE. What is this body !--Fragile, faily As vegetation’s tender leaf— Transient as April’s fitful gale, And as the flashing meteor brief. When long this miserable frame Has vanish’d from life’s busy scene, This earth shall roll, that sun shall flame, As thou this dust had never been ! What is thy soul ?—Eternal Mind Unlimited as thought’s vast range~—— By groveling matter unconfined !— The same, whilst states and empires charge. When suns have waned, and worlds sub- lime Their final revolutions told, This soul shall triumph over time, As though such o:bs had never roli’d ! Dl MINISTERIAL MOBS :— Or a new way to crush rebellion by rais- ing one. The late attack on the prince regent is evidently a ministerial, trick, merely to counteract the measures of the mayor and alderman of the city of London, and to check the progress of petitions from various parts of the nation. A ministe- rial mob has of late years been the policy of the court party when they find the dis- tresses of the people begin to excite a eneral commotion to obtain a redress. ‘he disturbance. which took place at the time of sir George Gordon’s riots, have impressed upon the public mind such a dread of mobbish insurrections, that the ministry have ever since had recourse to this mode of suppressing the clamour against the government. The whole story of the attack and firing bullets, car- ries in it a probability, that the whole pro- ceeding was under the immediate manage- ment of the prince regent’s party. Stones thrown that did not break the glass and bullets fired into a carriage without any apparent injury are too probable to be admitted as arising from the designs of a mob, who were determined to execute some desperate deed of a sanguinary na: ture. The proceedings were just cal- culated to give a tone to the proceedings of parliament, aud to check the energies of those members who were desirous to pursue those measures for the obtainment of a redress of grievances. The petitions of the peuple in behalf of themselves, were to give way for the sympathies to be ex- cited for the security of the prince regent. We find that this has already been dis- played in parliament, and the mayor and alderman of London have since came for ward with » submissive address of con- dolence, that has extinguished all that fire which was embodied in thei™emonstrance. The papers will now be filled with con- gratulatory addresses for the preservation of his royal highness, and a sufficient bo- dy of soldiers will be raised to suppress cvery movement made by the opposers of the administration. The powerful voice of the manufacturers will be silenced by the reiterated clamour against the a- gents who dared to attack the sacred person of royalty with pistols & brickbats. The person of the regent will now be more sacredly preserved, than the rights of the people maintained. —Ministers know the pride of Englishmen in relation to the monarchy, and they have learnt the art to suppress all attempts to a national reform, by representing the person of imajecty 23 being hozerded in the eqund-; ble to obtain it. .& Plois” wil become! ithe order of the dey, {pretty much as the «reign of terror,” regent. in protecting royaity, and all the powers of Europe will be called on to suppress a rebellion which strikes at the basis of “legitimacy.” This mob trick of the ministry is the most deceptive policy that can be adopted, as it deceives the most ignorant, and even the most Tnzeiligent——such per- sous beng desirous’ to obtain a redress of their wrongs if they can effect 1t in a rational Jnanner, but are alarmed and de- sist tech their pursyits when they find that persojal danger thiestens the re presentative’ of monarchy. | Thus aveithe virtuous cfforts of ap injure fled by their opponents, by procuring the very mischief which theys pretended to reprobate. A ministerial fob 1s under a complete system of disgipling; they knew how to throw stonesfat the prince without striking him, aud fire a brace of bullets into his coach withgut doing any “ essential injury.” «Fhe lord in waiting can swallow the balls if necessary, or carty off with as much facility as M’Ginnis, or any other slight of hand mountebank. We hope the peaple of England will not be deceived by such tricks, but pur- suc with a steady course the great woik they have undertaken. And may the Almighty prosper them in all their un- dertakings, and bafllc the witty projects of their encmies.—May king-cralt aud priest-cralt be consigned to the lowest depths of perdition. Bost. Chron. Sov iren From the New York Luly Advertisers By the arrival of the ship Ann Maria, capt. Waite, fiom Liierpool,ia 45 days we have received London papuvs to the 14thy and Liverpool to the 15th Murch. These! papers are almost exclusively occupied counts from various parts oi the kingdom of popular uneasiness, arrests of rowers, &c. A meeting was adverused tobe held at Manchester, on the 10th March. Onl the proceedmg day, the printer of the note ficaticn, and an orator by the name of Jou- ston, were arrested and lodged in sale cus tody. The meeting was beld notwithstan: ding the next morning, and by 9 o'clock about 9000 persons were assembled. he avowed plan was to march to London, to present petitions for parliamentary reform, and about one thousand actually set outon the journey. = Arrangements, however, had been made by the magistrates to interupt the execution ofthe project, and about il o’clock, whilst the speakers were display- ing their oratorical talents, the magistrates, officers and troops, came suddenly upon them; ard took the leaders, managers. and orators, with all their papers, intosafe custody. The ringleaders were sent to prison. ' Some peace Jers, troops, &c. set off after the persons who had proceeded on their way to ‘Loudon, expecting to be followed by their leaders with money, &c. and before night 200 of them were lodged in prison. Several of the principals were sent off to London. At Glasgow, 14 persons have been com- mitted on the charge of conspiring against the government, and taking an unlawful oath. : The following account of the execution of Cashman, cne of the Spafield rioters, is taken from the London Star of March the 12th. ; EXECUTION OF CASHMAN. A considerable crowd of people continu- ed nearly the whole of yesterday evening, viewing the preparations making mn Skin- ner street for the execution of Cashman, the sailor, condémned for being concerned in stealing fire-arms during the riots on the second of December last, from the shop of Mr. Beckwith, gun maker, in that street and in front of which the execution was ordered to take place. A very large ares was formed by posts sunk in the grounc and connected iron chains, and the platform was erected in the innermost part. Al the streets and avenues leading to the place were also barricaded, to prevent the access of carriages or horses. The work- men in the course of these operations, were assailed with much groaning and nissing from the multitude. “is The unfortunate convict took his leave of his friends during yesterday afternoon with great composure. He said be had faced death in his country’s cause too often: to fear it in avy shape. In a subscquent interview with Mc. Devereaux, the Romar.

The proeession the mo tved onwards to Skinner street. Tlie crim (inal was dressed in a blue jacketand white Inowsers, and displayed a very bold denicu- nor. On arriving at the plattorm, he descend. ed from the cart, and mounted with a quick {and firm step. Turning round to tls multitdde, he addressed them in a few wild ‘aud wmebdherent expressions repeatedly ex- jclatming that % he died a murdered man’ On the exceutioner attemipiing to put the icap over his face, Cashman pushed bin af way, and declared that he would die with this face uncovered like a true British tar. (I'he crowd on hearing this began chee on all sides, and continued so for some miin- ues. Every thing being at last ready, ut unhappy man. was ‘launched into eternity. Nu sign of fear ever escaped him and he seemed to die without a strugzie. The body haying been suspended the u- sual (ime, was ent down at nine o'clock, and carried back in a shell to Newgate, to be given to his relations for interment. Detachments of Horse and foot were sta- tioned during the whole morning, in Gray’s Inn-lane, in Black-friar’s-vcad and other puris of the vicinity, to be ready in case of disturbance ; but we are happy to say tha nothing occuired to require their interfer. ence.

When I hear parents biustering and scolding, I gucss their children are saucy and disobedient, Wien 1 see many whips stuck up ina merce too. When I hear small children swearing at each other out of doors, I guess their pa- rents quarrel and fight in the house.

When I hear children permitted to ask strangers a great many impertinent ques- tions, 1 guess they will never be able to an- sw many: pettiaent ones. When I heara child tell its parents it wont, I guess it was never made to mind, and never will be, til some evil officer does it. : ; When hear parents threaten to skin their children alive, I guess their children know they wiil lie, and wont mind much what they say. When 1 hear parents threaten to beat their children’s brains out, I guess if they are legitimate children they have none to spare, and it they should strike where their brains lay, I guess they would siiike are. Whe I see children indulged in tale. bearing, I guess their parents have few good neighbors. When I hear parents use unchaste con- versation before their, children, I guess they will see the time when they will wish they were well married. : : When 1 see parents laugh. at the lies their children ‘tell to deceive and play tricks upon others, I guess they will cry when they hear the end of the play.
