TIfE'EDGEFIELD ADVERTISER.
.The old year now has past aivay,
And new year comes in young and gay.
Our lovely soil with plenty's crowned,
Antid peace, and health, and wealth abound.
My readers listen to my song,
For I will not detnin you long.
The Carrier his respects presents,
And asks you for your surplus cents.
Fatr ladies of this polished town,
I pray (o not upon him rown.
lie's told you ninny a tale of love,
And joy and grief, your souls to move;
Ile's told how many a cunning lass,
lHas hound in chains more strong than brass,
Or ndainnut, sone foolish swain,
Who's even fondly hugg'd his chnin. -
And why mny not each sii'le dane,
Ere-this year passes, do tl same?
Dear girls, I've one request, to make,
Whenl O'er yon wed, send me some cake.
To politicians, foreigh news
lie's brotight, to drive away the blues.
A word with you, ye wealthy misers,
Why dont you take the Advertisers? .
The CnshA vould ne'er by you he uiss'd,
Subscribe then on the printers list.
Ile'll tell yotu where to purchase stock,
V lieu next your cofrers you unlock. T
To all my readers young and old,
Line upon line, lie's soiethig told,
Ahout the Kinderhook ingicinn.
Par excellenice the politician.
Creat Vann! if thou but stretch'st thy wand
O'er the broad face of this free land,
O'er evrv.e n there's th'rown a mnist,
An ad tone th'cuehanitm:c:t cian reist.
Oli oarc of conjtarersaill hail!
L.ift froi thy brow, the golden vail.
Andbjlcss thy foll'wers with the sight
They'll start in wonder and affriglt!
Oh Jolnson ! thou the black naun's frical.
-The snuse to thee would rcccon.in cud,
To haie to Afrie's sunny land,
Where thou the darkies maay'gt commapd:
From tlee, a long line may descened
Of( wool-lead Princes who'll extend,
Thy Mlsakened namue to future days,
%% hile Congo btrds will grunt thy praise.
Ohi Texas! where the hold.and bravo
Find lteedom,- or the soldier's grave,
Contendina fkr pinn's noblest right,
Against the Metie' tyrants' mighi;
Where Carolina's sons have bled,
And suink aniong the gallant dead
My humble muse would not essay
To sing of you, in her poor lay.
Of what has happ'd in our own State,
The muso Will not this time relate,
Save that she voted for U ill Mangum;
To Vau and oth'rs, sihe says "hung 'em!"
Of William% or the Gallic King,
Or Sultan Mahnond, she'll not sing;
What boots it in this land of work,
To talk alout a lazy Turk ?
Whazt care we for a sailor king,
Or any worthuless titled thing?.
TIhi* land's the rinter's paradise,
Whewre each .mnay prinit his thuonantid lies.
On parsing now, the muse would say,
WVhen thais you read, the Carrier pay.

YANKEE INGENUITY.
Tpe vhole world must ere long acknow
ledge the superiority'o Yankee ingenuity,
and already many portiQns of it have tacit
ly made the admission, bj ihe employment
:;fAmerican mechanics in the superinten.
lence of various kinds of mechanical busi
ness. -Gen. Tallniage, in a letter from St.
Petersburgh, remarks, that the foreman of
the principal rnnchin' factory al Manches
ier, (Eng.) is an American froi Providence;
and that the principal nanufacturer employ
ed by the King of Prussia, is a native of
Baltimore. Henry Eckhd was for i long
linme the mnaster slip-builder for the Sultan
of Turkey; and we saw stated a few days
since, th at several elegant huttaies have been
ex ported per order to England from Nipwark,
N. J. Two inventions, which arc considered
by the English ns the greatest improvements
Df the age, are the fruits of Yankee ingaenui
ty-the mnchine for making the %yeaver's
reed. invented by J. A. Wilkinson, of R. I.,
and the "self-regulator" to the power loom,
invented by A. Stone, of the same State.
!tn in point of ingenuity, we believe noth
ing can exceed the stock mchine..invented
ty GCsen. harvey, of this village, and now
in successful operation in the nantfacture
rf stock franies. Added to this. his mnehine
ihr nnmaufacturing'.serew; his brick ma
line; his combig nparnsitn, and various
rat hers of minor importance. exhibit mechani
r'al skill of the highest order. Wiherever
our. ingenuity and enterprise extend into
freign countries, an evidence anm convic
ion of our gretness pes with them ; and
the noni-recniling rifle of vouti Cochrnn
made lahmod 'or Tur'key exclaim, "If
American boys can do this, wheat can their
mien do ?"-1oughkeepsic 7t legraplh.
