K The Grave.
BV J. H. R. BAYLEY.
The trials of mankind are great ! .
Whereby man must partake in part ;
Nor may avoid the common fate,
Awaiting on the human heart !
Wealth may not dash the tear away,
That flows from sorrow's secret spring ;
Nor want, with all its force, allay
a.
, The anguish of oppression's sting:
. And thus, the peasant and the peer,'
The freeman and the meanest slave,
, Have each and all their trouble here,
s - Which only vanish with "the grave.
" The grave" calms down the ruffled breast,
ty Stills the quick pulse and feverish breath ;
And gives the wearied sufferer rest,
Within the silent halls of death ;
- Where passion's once unbridled will,
With every vexing strife is o'er,
Where all is deep, and dark, and still,
1 And sufferance may afflict no more !
Then who, oppressed by bitter grief.
Or maddened by tumultuous care,
" t Would sigh to find "the yellow leaf
Or dread to be an inmate there !
To reason with existence thus,
And thafnon being voiceless state,
May not be 'chance so wise in ns,
As 'tis to boldly cope with fate,
But chase the sober thought away
Reason or not, the time will come,
When every form of human clay,
Shall find the "mother mould" its home !
And those who, in the broadest range,
View life and death, yet neither crave,
FJear least to .meet the final change,
And calmly look upon "the grave !"
The Happy Meeting.

A Hoosier in Boston. The ediior of the
Cincinnati Inquirer, wrilhig from Boston, tells
the following tory :
"Western folks feel in ihis city as though
they were in a 6trait waiscoat, for their perso
nal liberty is so hedged in that freedom of ac
tion is gone. Those addicted to smoking, es
pecially, feel twice the desire to promenade the
streets, cigar in mouth, from the bare fact that
the enemies of the fragrant weed have forbid
its use in the streets of Boston. I heard an
excellent anecdote of the adventures of a live
Hoosier in this city, which illustrates the muni
cipal regulations of this mummy-dissectmg city,
better than a book. After a good dinner at his
hotel, he ignited, a cigar, arid starteid out for a
stroll. After a few step3 a policeman tapped
him on;the shoulder, and informed him that the

STROUDSBURG,
Origin and Progress of the North
American Slave "Prade.
The following account of the origin of the North
American Slavery, says the New York Journal of
Commerce, places this institution and its connec
tion with American people, in its true light :
"In A. D. 1620, a Dutch ship sailed into the
Chesopeake, and landed a cargo of slaves on the
James River. From that time to the present, n'e
gro slaves have been found in North America.
During the first century of colonial life, a few ne
groes were from time to time introduced into the
plantations. But the 18th century opened with
events deeply affecting the future fortunes of the
black race, and strangely connecting slaves with
the career, of public government. By the begin
ing of that century, the once mighty empire of
Spain had grown weak. The line of her.ancient
monarchs was drawing to an end in the person of
a feeble and dying sovereign ; and the war of the
Spanish succession lashed the' elements of strife
into a foam. Louis XIV wished to place his
grandson on the vacant throne of Spain, but Eng
land and Germany resisted his wish, and all Ed
rope was thrown into the uproar of a ten years'
war. When it ended, Jingland obtained as her
share of spoils, a magnificent prize. Her prize
was the monopoly of the slave trade. By the trea
ty of peace at Utrecht, in 1713, she gained the ex
clusive privilege of bringing African slaves into
the Spanish West Indies, and to Spanish Ameri
ca, immediately companies were chartered, snips
built, and for thirty years England was the active
slave merchant of the world. . Her ships, and her
ships exclusively, visited the African coast for
slaves, and an immense harvest of profit was reaped
from the unholy traffic. The western shores of
Africa everywhere bore witness to the activity of
her traders, and with British manufactures the
Christian nation purchased slaves from the black
pagan kings on the African coast. The slaves
were shipped to the West Indies, to the Spanish
main, and to the North American colonies. Their
importation into the plantations was found a prof
itable mercantile speculation, and the English
slave ships entered with their cargoes into every
port of the Atlantic, South of Maine.
But the provinces at an early day dreaded the
introduction of negroes. They tried at first to le
gislate upon the subject, and passed laws prohib
iting their importation, but slaves were an article
of commerce, and Britian had undertaken to regu
late the trade of America. The anti slavery legis
lation they attempted, consequently came into col
lision with the legislation of the mother country,
and was nullified. Repulsed here, they tried re
monstrance upon the subject ; but what did Eng
lish merchants and manufacturers care for a colo
nial remonstrance It was opposed to their inter
ests, and was not worth the paper on which it was
written. The enduring Quaker might talk of the
light of God in the soul, and assert that man was
by divine right free; the Puritan might remonstrate
against trafficking in the image of his Creator ;
and the planter of the South might send hispeti
tion to the throne, that he might not be overrun
with negro slaves ; but all these petitions, remon
strances, and sublime truths, were unheard and
unheeded in the onward thundering of the great
Juggernaut of commercial interest. English mer
chants counting ther money and eating their beef
and pudding, thought ouly of making yellow guin
eas out of black Africans.
The colonists were however, strenuous in the
opposition to the slave trade, notwithstanding their
legislation'had been disregarded and their remon
strances treated with neglect. 1 he .Fenns tried
to abolish slavery and to prevent the introduction
of negroes into the province of Pennsylvania, but
the attempt failed. Oglethorpe excluded slaves
from Georgia, till the British government offered
their introduction. Virginia persevered in her op
position ; 'but,' says Mr. Madison, 'the British
government constantly checked the attempts of
Virginia, to put a stop to this infernal traffic.
South Carolina, like Virginia, tried to close her
ports against slave ships ; but South Carolina had
recognized the right of the British government to
reculate colonial commerce, and her resistance to
the slave trade was ineffectual. These efforts did
not set bounds to the dark current which interest
mused to flow from the African coast. The en-
tiro commercial policy . of England in reference to
this trade may be announced in a single sentence,
as follows:
" We cannot allow the colonists to check, or in
any degree discourage a traffic so beneficial to the
English nation." .
5o said the Earl of Dartmouth in 1777, when
the American jewel was falling from the English
crown. His earl-ship felt the passion which urged
the negro upon our country, and cleared at.a bound.
all the hedges and obstructions jraised by the peo
ple.
But, besides this commercial motive for forcing
the negro upon the provinces, there werepohticial
considerations which were powerfully operative in
bringing about the same result. 4 Negroes said
the British statesman, negroes" cannot become re
publicans ; and they will be a power in our hands
to restrain the unruly .colonists.' Here, was .the
germ of the opposition of the British government
tn a rpssaiion of the slave-trade. Merchantile in
terest without doubt, suggested thergument ;,but.
the government made by adoption, the .suggestion
its rules of action, and slave ships continued to
visit every port from Rhode Island to Florfda.
The colonies wer.es thus, kept asn open market
for slaves both for a .cpmmarcial,aiid political, reat
sonwju rich prpfits ; Jhe political reason was,
the negroes .coujd not Jbeeo ine;rep,ublicans. Th'ei

open to the slave-ships; and it was notiiqtil the
assembling of the continental Congress, at the
breaking out of the Revolution, that the aggregate
opinion of the country was announced in an effec
tive maimer. Among the first transactions of that
body was an act ' which forbade the introduction
of slaves.
The irritation of the provinces in this matter is
energetically set forth in the clause' introduced
by Mr. Jefferson into the original draft.of the dec
laration oflndependence, and which reads as fol
lows :
" He (the King of Great Britian) has waed
cruel war "against human nature itself, violating its
most sacred rights of life and liberty in the per
sons of a distant people who never offended him,
captivating and carrying tKem into slavery into
another hemisphere, ox to incur miserable death
in their transportation thither. This piratical war
fare, the pprobiura of infidel powers, is the war
fare of the Christian King of Great Britian. De
termined to keep open a market where men should
be bought and sold, he has prostituted his nega
tive for the suppression of every legislative at
tempt to restrain this execrable commerce. And
that this assemblage of horors might want no fact
of distinguished dye, he is now exciting those very
people to rise in arms among us, and purchase
that liberty of which he has deprived them, by
murdering the people upon whom he has obtruded
them; thus paying off former crimes committed a
gainst the liberties of one people, by crimes which
he urges them to commit against the lives of an
other." This clause, for reasons affecting Georgia and
the Carolinas, was, with several others, stricken
out of the Declaration by Congress, before that in
strument wub signed; but it is a faithful exposi
tion of the opinion of the porvinces upon this sub
ject. They knew as well as statesmen in England,
that negroes could not here become republicans;
and then knowledge of the motive which induced
the British Government to persevere in bringing
slaves into America, rendered them the more averse
to their importation. The grievances from this
source co-operated with others to drive them fin
ally to an assertion of their independence.

Remarks on Diet.
While traveling on a steamboat (wm the ci
ty of P., I as thrown into company with a la
dy who was taking a very pale, sickly little
girl to the country, for the benefit of her health.
She was much troubled with disorded stomach
and bowels. In conversation with the lady on
the subject, I inquired regarding the child's di
et. "O," says she, "it results from no fault in
diet, I assure ypu,, for she is never allowed to
eat a particle of fruit nor vegatables, and she has
always been subject to such turns." I told
her the results weie what I should expect from
such prohibitions ; and directed her attention
to a child then present, whose food consisted
of the products of ihe field, garden, and dairy,
exclusively; who scatcely ever had a bowel
complaint. I argued that gross and highly con
centrated diet frequently caused inaction and
diseased action of the bowels, in turn, while
the freedom and regularity of function produced
by fruits and vegetables, prevent the accumula
tion of morbiferous matter in the system, which
causes disease. The mischief, however, does
not always terminate in the boweb; but what
ever organ is the weakest will suffer most.
But flesh is thought by some, to be necessary
to support the strength of the system.
It has peen argued that carnivorous animals
are the strongest ! But are they ? The lion
may outdo the camel in a single effort ; but can
he endure the continued exertion of the latter,
for an equal length of time, with. as little sus
tenance? A flesh diet, too, directs an undo
.proportion of nervous energy to the base of the
brain, thus robbing the intellect, and higher
feelings of their natural stimulus. I do not
mean to say that all should at once abandon
animal food, but I do mean that we are quite
too carniverous for ihe best interest of body or
mind.
Important as is the kind of food, the quantity
is of still greater importance. An Englishman
on returning home from a visit to America be
ing" asked what he thought of the Yankees, re
plied ;" Their men are alj gluttons, and their
women all slaves,-' nowise complimentary to
either sex ; but is there not much truth in what
he said ?
The theory and practice of Dr. Cheyne was,
"The lightest and least of meats and drink a
person can be tolerable easy under, is the shor
test and most infallible means to preserve life,
health and serenity." Those who feel an indis
position to take physical or mental exercise,
immediately after meals, have eaten too much
and are exhausting through their stomachs en
ergy due to the brain and muscles, and the pow
er of the former is diminished by being over
tasked. Hence the greatest eaters are often
thin in flesh, receiving less nourishment from a
large quantity of food, than the vigorous digos
tiye powers of moderate eaters extract from a
much smaller amount. When any extraordi
nary effort is to be made, physically or men
tally, the best preparation is rigid abstomious-

The Folly of Pride.
The witty and sarcastic Rov. Sidney Smith,
for many years one of the contributors to the
great English reviews, thus discourseth on the
folly of pride in such a creature as man :
"After all, take some quiet, sober moment of
life, and add together the two ideas of pride
and of man. Behold him, creature of a span
high, stalking through infinite. space in all the
granduer of littleness. Perched on a speck of
the Universe, every wind of heaven strikes into
his blood tho coldness of death ; his bouI floats
from his body like melody from the string ; day
and night, as the dust on the wheel, he is rol
led along the heavens through a labyrinth of
worlds, and all beneath the creation of God are
flaming above and beneath. Is this the crea
ture to mako himself a crown of glory ; to deny
his own flesh, to mock at his fellow, sprung
from that dust to which both will soon return ?
Does he not suffer ? Does he not die ? When
he reasons is he never stopped by difficulties ?
When he acts is henever tempted by pleasure!
When he lives is ho free from pain 1 When
he dies can ho escape the common grave ?
Pride is not tho heritage of man ; humility
should dwell with frailty, and atono for igno
rance, error and imperfection."

Anecdote of Daniel Webster. The South
Boston Gazette first published the following :
At one time Daniel Webster had a difficult
case to plead, and a verdict was rendered a
gaiust his client. One of the witnesses came
to him and said, "Mr. Webster, if I thought
we should have lost the case, I mighgt have
testified a great deal moro than I did." "It is
of no consequence," replied the lawyer, "ihe
jury did not believe a word you said."
Scientific Discovery.
Mr. Corne, in a paper recently submitted to
the Paris Academy of Science, makes some as
tounding statements of the result of experiments
by himself and Covlet, upon the efficiency of
liquid sulphurous acid in protecting the body
from the effects of contact with melted metal.
The hands moistened with the acid when im
mersed in melted lead, experience a sensation
of coldness when the radiation of heat from the
fused metal was almost unbearable. He says
"before experimenting with melted iron, I
placed a slick previously moistened in ihe stream
of liquid metal, and on withdrawing it found it
almost as wet as it was before, scarcely any of
the moisturo was evaporated. The moment a
dry piece of wood was placed in contact wiih
the heated metal, combustion took place. M.
Covlet and I then dipped our hands into vessels
of liquid metal, and passed our fingers several
times backwards and forwards through a stream
of metal flowing from the furnace. We varied
the experiments for upwards of two Hours; and
Madame Covlet, who assisted at these exper
iments, permittod her child, a girl of 9 years
of age, to dip her hand in a crucible of red hot
metal with impunity.
