MISCELLANY.
MUM Tlia NATIONAL utoinrta.
LA^ITTB.
It may not be unamusing to our readers* .to
state Homo. particulars relative to the character
of Lafttte, who acted a* conspicuous a )vait ? in
the defence of New-Orleans. it 1* well known
that thin u\an? nested by n hand of ftaratarians,
kept up marauding"xcurMoi:* on theTcommerco
of the United State*. Com. Patterson roceiv
ed orders from the Secretary of the Navy to
disperse this baud of marauder*, and wait sout
on to New-Orleans for that purpose. Before
his arrangements were completed* intelligence
was received of the hostile intention* of the
Euglish, and it then became a question how he
wa? to act. Our enemies were then attempting
to conquer us no less by division than by arms.
The British commander* published proclama
tions, inviting the Spaniards'?the people of co
lor?the Negroes?ami, amongst the rest, the
marauder* of llarataria, to join their standard,
lit. Col. Nichols made overture* express and di
rect to Lnfltte, |M-omi*ing him a guarantee ol
his property, &c. if he would join' the British
standard. * 'litis wilcy officer demanded a fort
night to return a definitive answer to his propo
sals. and the British officer docs not appear to
imagine that he was pre|?aring to play a double
Came : He Hut tori him with the services which
re intends to render to the British arms. Hot
the antipathy which this Frenchman bore to that
nation seems to have answered all the purposes
of nobler qualities, lie immediately dispatch
ed a messenger to the (Jnvernor of Louisiana
with the intelligence, and tendered his services
for the defence of Now-Orleann. He embraced
the favorable moment, when he was morally cer
tain that his former errors would be overlooked
to urge his request. If this demand was reject
ed he could, as the only alternative loft.jointhe
arms of our enemies. In the critical situation
in which New-Orleans was at that time placed,
it did notbecomethe United States to have more
enemies than one. LafUtc, therefore, was invi
ted by the Governor of Louisianr, to join the
standard of the United States, and should his
conduct meet with the approbation of General
Jackson, the Governor promised to intercede
with the President, to procure a pardon for him
and his follower*. Lafitte, on the strength of
this assurance, joined the forces of the (.'.States,
and ncculiarly signalized himself in the defence
of New-Orleans. He wa* then recommended
as a suitable object of clemency, and a pardon
was thus obtained for himself anil all hi* follow
ers. The above facts are taken from Major I<a
toiir's history of the war in Louisiana.
What we notice the above facts for is to show
how dangerous a game is played bv the n-.tion
who endeavors to conquer by holding out such
lures and. temptations to desperate men to join
thuir standard. The British officer who sought
the alliance of Lafitte, was ultimately the cause
of his going over to the United States. Had it
not been for this invitation, Lafitte would in all
probability have remained neutral. Ilia hutied
to the English would probably have prevented
him from contributing to the success of their
arms j and he clearly would not have assisted
a nation who was at that moment laboring for
his destruction. The invitation, however, from
the English, furnished him with the means of
making hi* peace with our government, and ena
bled h lm to wreak his resentment on them.
THE POLES AND RUSSIANS.
The following amusing anecdote id taken from
a work^rrittcn by a son of Kotzebue, entitled
" The TltnteiM^isoncr of War j" it is a curi
ous illustration of tlio unfriendly and unconge
nial foelitig which btrt a short tune ago existed
among the Poles towards the HuuuiauH. Whe
thcr the late junction Of' Poland to Russia will
led, seldom turn out happy ? hut political and
domestic life* according at leant to the opinions
and practice of modern htatesmen, differ mo
widely that what in true with respect to theono,
may perhaps be directly the reverse with res
pee t to the other
" The battle of Moschaisk was also celebrated
in the theatre at Wilnaby a new piece, 1 went
to it, wrapped up in a grcut coat, which I got
from Mr. Anderson. It was called," The Scho
lars of Crojji," (a town in Lethuania.) <>From
this town fifty Cossacks are supposed to hiViftre
moved a magazine, in order to convey it to the
Du ina. They are scarco gone when the scho
lar-'. sixty in number, and the oldest not more
than fifteen, resolve to recover the magazine
from the Cossacks. In furtherance of this de
termination, a numlier of boys appeared on the
r>taj{c, led by a formal pedant of a Bchool master,
who, in order to inflame them, delivered a long
harangue on the history of (Joliali and the lit
tle king David. All armed themselves with old
pistols, broken muskets, aril cudgels. Their
inothrir* came and shred tears over them?-the
pedagogue waved a tt<i<c, and all cried out
" victory or death " The children knelL aild
were blessed by their mothers ) after which a
wretched trumpet sounded in the orchestra, and
?hey marched off crying, " Liberty and l land
forever." What a pity that no young female
of C'roui joined the group, like another Maid of
Orletinn, to help the miracle of sixty school boys
putting fifty Cotsacks to flight, and returning
wife and sound after their victory ! In tho last
act, a Russian civil officer, who has lost his way,
is dragged on the ntage and grossly insulted,
when he rails for quarter. At last, on his re
tenting ihe ill usage ho receives he is reproved
by the little children who aro returning front the
battle. It w?? then said by one of tho charac
ters, " This is the way in which the Poles con
quer Russian heroes*." The wholo pit then
roared out, " bravoP* and the old trumpet did
its duty. In conclusion, the oldest scholar with
a paper helmet on his head sung a bravura air.
From respect to the Poles I will not describe the
vulgar abu ie which they this evening allowed to
be uttered against tho Russian*. On our way
home. Anderson related to me other Instances of
this mt of Polish patriotism."

MAY DAY.
I have often heard of the celebrations ol
May llayt bat nnvrtr wltnawwl the fextivi
ties foil amusement* of crowning the Queen
of iltfo joyous season uiitil the entrance of the
present month. On tlie fiVst day of May the
O Ladies belonging to the Ifaleigh Female
my, assembled under the wide spreading
trees which embosom their building and proceed
oil t? the election of a Queen. Miss Mary Dit
llose, of Georgia, waa tho successful candidate J
?She wan conducted totheruril throne, when be*
ing Heated, she wap, with suitable ceremonies,
crowned with a chaplet of Flowers. TheOrove
thereupon resounded with " Long live Queen
Mary," und she received in an appropriate and
amusing manner, tho felicitations and homage
of her subjects. Some slight refreshments were
distributed among the votaries of Flora, thestu
dents and the -many ladies and gentlemen who
were spectators or the scene. The echoea of
the grove were awakened by the melody of mu*
>iic,and the mirthful scene impressed all so hap
pily that the students will long believe thip day
was not lost. Mr. Marling, so well known for
his skill and tasto in painting, was present and
sketched a likeness of the May Queen asshe ap
peared iu her ensign* of royalty! and the lovers
of the line arts may expect to be gratified with a
sight of the picture, at his exhibition gallery,
when it shall nave received the finishing touches
of his pencil. The following address to the
Queen, was read by Miss Ann W Clark, of
Georgia, in a manner so expressive and agreea
ble ns to create general satisfaction
44 Hrlovctl Mary?This lovely dav invites us
to lay aside the sober pursuits of' Literature,
and to taive up the theme of rejoicing. All na
ture is now attired in its loveliest robe. The
Odds, the groves, the gardens rejoice. The air
is calm, the woods nrc vocal with music, and the
sun in his declining course smiles through a
cloudless atmosphere, on us, the gladdened
daughters of cheerfulness. Our bosoms beat in
unison with the scene. Peace and joy smite o
round us, mid we have sought for some innocent
means of expressing these blissful sensations.?
One wish actuates t one sentiment inspires us,
vi/., thnt this dav of s<?cial joy, be succccdcd by
nil evening of ifelig'it. To grace the scene we
have selected the fairest flowers of spring. They
were plucked bv the hands of affection, & friend
ship has entwined them inton wreath, to deck tho
brow of our favorite girl. Will our Mary deign
to accept this short lived tribute of our love ?
Will bhe condescend to nccept the title of Queen
nf May ? She will :?And while she wears this
Idooming crown, let its decaying bloom remind
tier of Heauty's transient glow, while its fra
grant sweetness* forcibly inculcates the super!*
nr churms of virtue.?

with the yearn beyond the flood?the season of

Kay attendants, must like the withering leaves
of these sweet flowers, return to the Quit from
whence we sprang."
WHAT IsTbEAUTY ?
AX OHtftftTAL ArOMMIl'r.
The venerable Kaliph Mahntoud Haif, before
his spirit was received by-the angel of death,
concluded his farewell address to his beloved
son* with the following injunction*-" Ismael,"
said he, "take but one wife to thy bosom, hut
take care that she is perfectly beautiful; if thou
doat iaistrust thine own iudgme'nt, seek the o
pinions of the sages of the different countries,
for wisdom is not confined in with the narrow
bounds of individual capacity." The weeping
youth bended his body to the earth in token of his
ohedicnce, and the countenance of his aged pa
rent was decked with thu sweet smile of con
tentment, as his spirit fled from its perishing habi
tation.
The youthful Ismael hod long cherished the
glowing passion of love for tho virgin Zclnta;
virtue had shed its benign influence hi her heart,
but nature had formed her person in ail angry
mood, and rendered it a singular contrast to the
beauties that graced her mind.
The vftmls of the expiring Kaliph, however
remained indelibly fixetl in the mind of his du
tiful child, who resolved implicitly to obey bis
father's commands, alUio* his attachment to/el
ma was the source of many an involuntary sigh ?
but filial obedience triumphed over lotc/and he
proceeded to tho Khan, or Inn, in which the va
rious inhabitants of the earth were assembled.
Ismael had scarcely made known the occasion
of his visit, when the guests displayed to him
the different ideas of beauty entertained by their
respective countries, and eagerly advised him to
lie guided by them in thn choice of a lu ide. An
Aran of tho desert lavished encomiums on the
women of his nation for blacking the edge ol
their eye-lids, which he affirmed, rendered
them complete beauties i a native of the l<a
drone Islands, said that beauty consisted in
black teeth and white hair, an inhabitant of the
province of Cumana admired thin checks, a lon<4
visage and extremely large eyes j a Chinese pre
ferred small crippled fret? a Turk corpulency &
large black eves i a Greenlandet- tho custom ol
painting the face blue or yellow j a Muscovite dc
clared that a woman whose features were noi
loaded with paint, was perfectly hideous j nor
an (Englishman allowed that the females of hit
country had adopted the opinion of the Muhco
vites!
Others of the company were preparing to nflfei
their opinions, when an holy liervich with mo
dest accent, addressed the voting Kaliph i?
" Mighty prince !" said he, " the most huinbh
of your slaves wishes to lay his lowly mite 01
ad\iceat yoprfeet."?14 Proceed, holy Dervich,'
replied Ismael. The venerable sage is rejoined
" 1 have diligently studied tho divine languagt
fc . . - iJlrs . ?' '
of tho Genii, and my endeavorsl?ave been crown
ed with success j this sacred vol u mo con tain it
tho fruits ?f my toil t in this your, wUhes will be

A' blustering standing Army Officer li
asserted, within tho hearing of hislaudlon
