BY SHERIDAN,
1 ne’er could any lustre see,
In eyes that did not look on me,
1 ne’er saw nectar on a lip,
But where my own did hope to sip.
Has the maid, who seeks my heart,
Cheeks of rose, unstain’d by art?
I will own their colour true,
‘When yielding blushes aid their hue.
Then her hand so soft and pure,
I must press it, to be sure;
Nor can | e’en be certain then,
Till it I grateful press again.
Must I, with attentive eye,
Watch her heaving bosom sigh ¢
I will do it, when I see
That heaving bosom sigh for me:

I seis’d it, tis true, and I ne'er shall re

Nay be never enjoy one who think ‘twas
amiss ;
But for me I thank dear Cytherea who"

You fe pout andlook prettily cress; but
pray,
What business so near to my lips had
your cheek ;
LUyou will put temptation so pat in one’s
way,
Saints, resist if you can j but for me, I'm
too weak.
But come, dearest Delia, our quarrel let's
end’;
Nor will I by force, what you gave not,
retain.

friend ;

JOHN ROSS, Esq. appointed Chairman,
and SAMUEL REES Sceretary.
The chairman having stated tie reasons
which occasioned the call of the nieeting,
10 be for the purpose of affording the dem-
ocratic republicans of the county of North-
ampton, an opportunity of comparing
ideas on the subject of the ensuing elec-
tion and of consuiting together on the
propriety of expressing their approbation
or disapprobation of the different candi
dates put in nomination for the office of
governor. There appearing to be a unan-
nnous opinion ia favour of William
Findlay, Jisq. the present state treasurer,
it was thereupon Resolved, That Thomas
J. Rogers, George Wolf, Philip Lyon,
Henry Fenner, and Jacob Stem, bea
committee to draft resolutions expressive
of the sentiments of the meeeting.
The committee withdrew’ and after
some time returned and made report,
which being amended so as to meet the
views of the meeting, it was unanimously
adopted as follows.
Resolved, That this meeting highly
approve of the nomination of William
Findlay, Esq. as the democratic repub-
ican candidate for governor of the com-
monwealth ; because in their oppinion he
was selected by 113 democratic repub-
lican delegates, iu pursuance of the
public will, and in opposition to faction
and intrigue.
Resolved, That William Findlay: de-
serves aud shall have our cordial support
at the ensuing election, because we be-
lieve he possesses intelligence to discern
and integrity to pursue the best interests
of the people, unawed by faction uninflu-
enced by seifish ambitions, micn or mo-
tives ; because we belicve his ficnines J
and independence of mind, his acute and
vigorous intellect, his urbanity of man-
ners, and ease of access, eminently qualify
him to fill the office of governor with
seputation to himself and satisfaction
by profession. These opinions are found-
the knowledge of his having
been oblidged to encounter the dificulties
ty, to hold a meeting at this
next to take into consideration, such fur-

arising from the want of an early and
liberal education, difficuliies which ior
the most part enchain ordinary minds to)
the narrow sphere and obscurity in which
they arc brought up ; but Mr Findlay by
force of a vigorous understanding has
burst the fetters which bind common
minds and surmounted those difficulties.

lican neighbours, whilst he was labouring
on his farm discovered his prudence,
judgement, and acquirements and elected

Resolved, That in the opinion of this
nicely, the donation of Mr. Heister to
the counties of Berks and Schuylkilj, after
his nomituation for governor, of the ex-
cess of his pay, was a pitiful attemp: w
give himself a characicr for liberality
which unfortunately a whole hfe of weaith
and prosperity could not furnish one sol-
itary fact to Jusufy. We view this at-
tempt by largesses to the people to give a
man popularity as the most dangerous.
which bas occured in our country—it was
by such means amongst others, that Ceser
destroyed the liberties of Rome—it is
making the qulifications of the candidate
to depend on his ability to give presents
on this score there are a few men who
could stand a poll against Mr. Heister
Resolved, That the volte of Mr.
Heister in the convention of Pennsylva
nia, in favour of permitting the sons o!
frecholders to vote between the ages of
twenty one and twenty two years, who
had not paid taxes, and. excluding the
sons of other qualified voters under sim.
ilar circumstances, was contrary to the
spirit of our republican institutions, the
fair and equal rights of the citizen, and
calculated to create an odious and unjust
distinction between the sons of freeholder:
and others.
Resolved, That this meeting recom-
mend to the democratic republican citi.
zens of the several townships in this
county to hold mcetings and appoint
committees of vigilance in order to pro-
motc the election of William Findlay,
the democratic republican candidate for
gOVEINOL.
Resolved, That the committee of cor-
respondence for the county of Northamp-
ton, appointed by the convention at Har-
risburg, be requested to address the
electors of said county, on the subject
of the next governor’s ¢lection whenever
they shall deem it expedient.

Far--far I had roamed on the desolate

To the home of my fathers, that wel-

In life’s morning mareh, when my bosom

I heard my own mountain goats bleating!

My lictle ones kiss’d me a thousand times

And my wife sobbed aloud in her full-

But sorrow returned with the dawning of

And the voice in my dreaming ear,

Northampton County,
At a respectable meeting of the
democratic republicans of the county
of Nor hampton, held at the house
nity of knowing him annually ever since.
He has been asailed by open and avowed
enemies and watched by secret enemies
and pretended friend who were ambitious
of supplanting hum in the affections of
the people, but his integrity and prudence
have baffled every attempt to impeach
his public or private character.
Resolved, That we hove no confidence
in the political integrity of the men who
have been active In procuring the nomi-
nation of Joseph Heister as a candidate for
the office of governor, because among
them are men who were foremost in pro-
moting the election of governor M’Kean,
and because they could not make him do
as they pleased, in a very short time
abused him as unworthy of the trust—be-
cause the same men told us that Simon-
Snyder was fit to be governor, and in a
few years afterwards, when he refused
to be controled by them, they called him
corrupt and stupid. We infer from these
tacts that Mr. Heister has been brought
forward by a set of restless, ambitious men,
who calculated or controling and reg
ulating his acts if he should be elected.
Resolved, That we have yet to learn on
what occasion, or when or where, among
the various important situations with
which Mr. Heister has been entrusted,
he has distinguished himself~~what mea-
sures beneficial to the people have been
adopted on his suggestian~when he man-
ifested public spirit as to the internal im-
provement even of his own country.
Resolved, That in the opinion of this
meeting, among those who call them-
selves independent republicans in the
county of Northampton are those whowish
write. The night travel-
ler has therefore, only to
carry this phial along
with him, and without auy
further trouble can be

they are used in the month
of September, when’ they
possess the bitter sap,
which they afterwards lose.
