TO THE

Mayor of the City of Boston. To the first man in the

Metropolis of J^Tew England, I have much pleasure

in dedicating the following Poem.

" Intaminatis fulget honoribus."— Hob.
"Sterling worth and virtue in persona of eminent place and dignity
are seated to great advantage, so as to cast a lustre upen their very
place, and by a strong reflexion, double the beams of majesty."—
Arobbisbop Tillitsom.

Sermon^ Folio Edition^ London^ 1695, p. 45.

May every hope by you be won— by men and angels blest,
Be many years the favored son of the Athens of the, West,
The well beloved, for every voice its willing anthems raise.
And every listner will rejoice to hear their Chieftain's
praise.

Let Boston flourish free and fair— and in the day I leave
her,

I'll pour on high my warmest prayer, for her and thee.
Mayor Seaver.
♦***♦»
So now arrayed in regal power.
May blessings in ethereal shower
Deluge your soul, for truth renowned.
And scatter mercies all around.
And late, full late, may you arise,
And bloom afresh in Paradise;
While your good name, from age to age.
Shall decorate our history's page,
And adding splendors to my song.

THE BOSTONlAD.

BOSTON:

• * Written for Governor Everett,

" She Bits like an Ocean Queen,

■~~~~~~~ With a lira of proud toTrer»,"

By the Atlantio Borders Boston stands^

The beacon light of far surrounding lands,

A mirror, where all ages do reflect.

At one broad glance, triumphant intellect,

Mark her upon thy ever rolling page,

Great Ocean! Fairer Athens! of a later age—

Here let her stand a monument of arts and peace,

And revel in the Ughts of Rome and Greece.

( The seat of Learning and the throne of Arts,

The abode of beauty and of manly hearts.)

Yes ! Athens of the West! thy Towers arise,

Like nbrthern lights to my enraptured eyes,

Thy monuments and palaces afar.

Seem fkiry world or new discovered Star,

Thy bowers and Avenues, where learning strays.

Bear back my soul to Academias' days,

Thy Colleges, wher<e worth has found a home,

Reflect the li^ts of early Greece and Rome,

Thy thronged Streets and most resplendant Stores,

Can back to memory Tyre and Zidon ancient shores,

Crown'd with eternal light, forever blest,

Forever bear the palm Athens of th' West!

Commerce for you shall spread its snowy sails,

On every sea and woo their various gales,

Science shall flourish and the Arts revive.

Genius shall bask in sunbeams which shall give

Its light to distant centuries— and while

You o'er the night of other nations smile.

Your country's flag, embleming out the sky^

Shall o'er many races, dimes and ages fly.

THB BOSTONIAO.

A NEW POEM;

fVrittcn for President Gardner, of the City Council,
and dedicated to Abbot Lawrence.

" Above the rest proudly emioent,
Stood like a Tower."

Ckcropia was in ages gone.
The pride of early Greece,
( So Boston is the modern throne
Of all the Arts and Peace,)

Her Towers, where reared on summits high,

To clear the swelling sea,

So factions flood, njays't thou defy,

And be forever free.

Nine Archoxs held a glorious sway.

In Majestracy rare.

So Boston has in later day-
Eight Aldermen — and Mayor.

Athenians oft did signalize

Themselves with valour true.

And bid each Art and Science rise.

Up to their Nation's view —

Lo! Marathon and Salamis,

Lo! Plateea and Mycale —

Did Boston ever rival this,

Von Column tells the tale,*
The dazzling splendour of those souls
That glorified her race,
Long as the Sun or Ocean rolls.
Immortal annals grace.
Surrounding nations gazed at times.
On monument and dome,
And genius, rare from many climes.
Made Athens still its home;
On Athens, too, auspicious fates
Oft smiled with fond delight.
And all around the neigboring States
Borrowed from her their light,
*BunkerniU, B3

THE B08T0NIAD.

So the Bard, to win a laurel crown,
( By Corporations sent,)
Choose Boston for its high renown,
From all the continent —
Should accident by flood or fire.
Level your towers amain —
Some TiiEMisTOCLES — God inspire
To rear them up again.
Should luxury and intemperance,
Through all your halls extend,
Some Draco's spirit drive it hence,
Some Solon prove your Ariend.
Should the time come— Heaven forbid
When tyranny shall rage,
May Boston do as Athens did —
Back far in Phillip's age.
Athens! renowned for giving birth
To minds that worlds adorn,
So men, the glory of the earth.
Have been in Boston born.

Luis Dr Cxurzyia Luaiad, Book 6th.

Proceed fond youth ls|, you still may strive In vaiq,
To parallel my hero or my strain ;
Although your songs Jlow like pellacid streams
Through fairy-lund,(secn In the poet's dreams,)
Where buds and blossoms and perr*- 'al flowers.
Eternal frngranco shed 'round Amui^.ithine bowers }
Or sweet as birds that tuned the heavenly lay,
Thro' orient climes in Kden's «%rly day— ^
Or classic flood thnt roU'd thro' ancient lands,
Its medicinal waters over golden sands,
' Tis borrowed lustre from my hero's fame.
That lights my soul and aids my ardent flame —
•Gives all the radiant grandeur to my Hong,
And shall the Western poet's fame Itself prolong
Niagara, turn in column»to the sky,
Chain iHtna down or bid Olympus lly—
Attempt to hurl the Almighty's thunders back.
Or stay the Ligtitnings In their blazing track !
Tn vain you strive,— and thus you strive in vain,—
To parallel my Hero or my strain.

"" Arms and the man,'! so often sung of yore.
Have passed away, and now inspire no mora,
Tlie booming thunders of triumphant war,
Echo alone in ancient annals far.
No murderous ensigns float along the west —
"No high lieraldic boast or dancing cresi—
No nations sigh, no empires dying groans,
Rise from moving mountains piled from bones.
Which stand amidst the stream of human blood.
Like whitening islands in a crimson flood.
To other themes I strike the immortal lyre,
'While all the Arts that humanize inspire.
IBe all the scenes of this late age enrolled,

THE BOSTONrAD.

And I transcend the mightiest bards of olcT.
Wet with Niagara's spray I plume my wing.
And towards thy SUN celestial science spring.
, The dew from pinions shook so near thy blaze.
Forms the bright rainbow of my hero's praise-
Hark ! hallelujahs of a mighty race—
The jubilee of nations ! how they grace
With song and triumph— see the stamp of fate.
Second creator of Mankind's estate.
Mountains fell tributary, oceans ran
Before the genius of our mighty man ;
Through clouds and tempests oft encompassed wide.
His eagle mind with energy supplied
The springs of power that shook and rent
Nature's dominion on this Continent ;
'• But envy still a foe to worth will prove,
To worth though guarded by the arm of Jove '^
Sometimes like Abdiel he stood alone.
But still in his original brightness shone.
A mariner on life's dark sea afar.
With eyp9 still fixed upon the Polar Star,.
That was to guide him to the headland, where
Flantmg his standard in the purer air.
It might o'er new established emphes fly.
Picturing the splendors of his native sky!

*****
(Heraldic be<trings would his glories mar.
He was himself the Order and the Star >
Long may the wonder of the world be heard
And seen-ILLUSTRIOUS ONE-where you appeared
Like Uriel, oft amidst a recreant band ; ^^

Heaven's standard bearer to your native land.
Like Ocean's realm which nature's law surrounds.
You kept the mountain tide within its bounds.
When politics the fiercest souls engao-ed
And the red tempests, armed with fury! raeed
Jour mighty mind did eloquence unfold ' '•
Second to thunders that round Sinai roii'd.
Startling all Israel in the days of old

And lighting the march to Empire, takes its flight.

They should have been in other planets born.

Worn horrid shapes in dismal climes forlorn.

Gave reptiles birth, lived through a dreary dream.

ON THE DEATH OF

DANIEL WEBSTER.

Written for Hon. George LunU

By THB HON. JAMBS TORRINQTON SPKNCEB LID8T0KB.

*' Hung be the Heavens with black, &c." — Wm. Shakspeabe.

Suspended be the music of the spheres,
Proop wings of time through many mournful years.
Art thou dead? Yes! and the shock has rent.
As with voltsanic might, the continent.
"Who now within our hearts shall fill the throne.
Which, here, deserted, desolate and lone,
Lost to the darling — ^brightest son of time.
Stands like a fobric in a ruined clime ?
We fain would call thee back to earth again.
With tears of agony, but that were vain.
The country mourns in every distant part.
Grief dries the life's blood of a nation's heart.
# . * * • * «»

And, is my hero dead ? my darling gone.
On whom so many years I dwelt upon,
And fondly lioped, that I a sight, should gain,
Of the great man, but ah! I hoped in vain.
Soraetiraes in dreamy hours of youth, indeed.

THE B08T0MIAD.

Wand'ring by stormy floods, I'd think and read

Of God-like men who dwelt in oother climes,

Whose memories are the only records to the^e times;

And I would say, HE lived in those far years,

In some fair isle, or, perhaps, beyond the spheres.

Sudden the truth would flash across my soul,

Nor ages intervene, nor ocean roll

Between me and my idol, — He lives now.

And rears 'mongst sons of men his lofty brow.

Then to no warrior old I homage pay, —

No bloody hero taints my glowing lay;

For men of peace my anthems shall arise,

I'll win the laurel, and I'll bear the prize;

•' I fought and conquered" by the magic of the mind,

And left competitors so far behind,

That none was ever known to dare again,

The Western Minstrel, or his matchless strain.

Is there no poet in this western clime,
Whose spirit ean outstrip the wings of time,
Call ages back, and from their boundless flight.
Rally the spheres to robe his soul yf'nh. light ?
Then I, for one, will sing, though every ear
Be shut, and nought but winds and waves should hear.
Mighty Magician of the wondrous West,
Wizard of this New World— art thou at resii
/ Are thy immortal powers and radiant brow.
Now mouldring in the dreary mansions low! -
Hark, I saw his spirit soar away.
With hosts of Heaven, in angelic array.
Up! like the MORN of an eternal day,
I watched him still, with dazzled eyes afar.
Rushing in brightness on from star to star;
His winged form with braided rainbows hung.
Back on ten thousand spheres fierce splendors flung.
Blinded by serial floods, I saw no more,
When once he reached the far Chrystalline shore.
Where all the sons of glory went before.
He heeds you not, nor the giant piles you rear.
Though these may well his attributes declare.

THE BOSTONIAD.

His God-like deeds as mountains firm will stand,

His monument throughout his native land,

Your standard's stars, as onward ages roll,

Shall e*er beam forth the grandeur of his soul.

Niagara! Nature's Orator! thy tongue,

In rapid eloquence his praise prolong;

Mirror his lofty fame, ye inland seas.

Ye forests, bow before the sighing breeze,

'Till Sol's chariot with Neptune's coursers hurled,

Rush thro' electric tempest o'er a ruined world.

* « * * Hi

I thought that I would tread that distant shore,

Near where the Pilgrim Fathers trod of yore.

To see the wond'rous man, whom I adore;

And here I am at last — alas! I'm come,

Yes! near four thousand miles away from home;

And did you see HIM ? no, for he was ill;

But you may see him if you wait on still —

Oh! never, th' splendor of the West is fled —

My hopes are crush'd — the glorious Daniel's dead.

Immortals never die! ♦

Reason did seem to abdicate her throne,

In the dark hour I heard that you were gone,

I still did hope new lively strains would start.

To praise my idol in some counterpart,

That health and happiness and length of days

Were yours — ^but now those drear and solemn lays,

That once like roses round my path should Moom,

Transformed too, willows-weep above your tomb,

Alas ! my second Deity's laid low.

Bleak countenances meet the Poet now, —

I pine with weakness, and my heart is sore.

Tears flow fast, and I can write no more.

Nought but a borrowed lustre from thy Uncle's fame, *

Thy sacred Isle— Ocean's first-born has stood

Pre-eminent for years beside the flood.

The home of learning, and the seat of Arts —

The abode of beauty and of manly hearts.

Ere Memphis reared her gates, or Thebes her towers.

Ere Babylon bowed before her Pagan powers.

Ere ships of Carthage rode o'er Ocean's foam,

Before was heard the names of Greece and Rome;

With heroes and with bards thy clime was blest,

The throne of Science, '« School of (all) the West."

Blest be the isle that ever gave you birth.

Blest be the birth that graced the holy isle.

Blest be the attributes of all your worth.

Blessings in millions on you ever smile.

Thro' the fair regions of the rining ihiy,
This valuable, all-liealing Root is found,
For properties extraordinary — renowned; *

In estimation high, tlio Root they hoM,
And often pay for it it| weight in gold,
This will the leading Botanists attest,
From the Ooldon Orient to the Crimson West,
Men known through all Columbia's wide domain.
Whose fame hath rung o'er earth and foaming mlin.
From Tartary '8 mountains back to Europe's Towers again.
It grows, too. North of this wide Continent,
From whence 'tis often off to China sent !
For Tartary's hills, not easy of access,
With quite enough can not the Natives bless.
About a Century smce, we know 'twas made,
By France to China, an article of Trade,
And by the English, too, in later times;
But since the Independence of these climes,
America, that should no enterprise neglect
To China carries on the Trade direct.
But why need I tell you what myriads know.
Whose hearts with warmest gratitude will glow.
Long as the breath of life with them remains,
They'll praise the cause that banished all their pains;
Its own virtue to it splendour lends,
On actual merit it ijjuch more depends,
Than any medicine, e'er known before.
In modern days, or all the times of yore,
Its stately character will last as long
As the Sun shines, or years on Ages throng,
Although 'twas almost hid from mortal eye,'
From periods of remote Antiquity,
It pleased the blest Creator now to raise,
The Bright Salvation of these later days.
Health, Beauty, Genius, all shall tributes bring.
To Nature's Great Restorer, the Ginseng.
Heaven, to past and future generations.
Ordained it for the '•' Healing of the Na'tions."

Saw all arrai^ed with elegance and taste.

Well pack'd from deep foundation t(^the roof.

While his electric hair dye gives to virgin beauty birth.

Hyperion'^ lovely daughter in purple chariot flies —

And ope's with her rosey fingers, Morns gates thro' orient

skies ;
So the offspring of Hyperion Fluid — Fair Beauty leads

the way.
And "sheds its light and loveliness, o'er all the bounds

of day.
Hyperion's daughter sheds the dew, and all the flowerets

blow;
So from this Fluid a glorious crop of jetty locks will

And beauty rise to charm the world, like Venus from the

The Manila Mater of tlio God.s brought purity to earth,

Cybele, Thia, and Proserpine, were names the Goddess
bore,

But Rhea, only she Avas called thro' Greece, in days of
yore; -^

But Bona Dea was Iier name where the Koman Eajrles
flew. *

When matron's chaste approached her shrine, and paid

her honour's due,
In the noon of Roman glory, Thro' all her palmy days,
Myriads saw towers and temples reared and countless

alters blaze —
So TRUTH alone and purity— Nor Metaphor nor trope—
In estimation may exalt— the Panariston Soap—

PAN'S Greek for all that can excell and supersede the
rest,

Put Pan to the following (and spell) —^r/s/on— which
means the best —

And 'tis the best— for I have tried some that rack'd with

pain,
But other than Panariston Soup I'll never use again—

The Beauties of Antiquity new charms would ever win

Had they the Panariston Soap to sooth their virgin skin,
Its praises gladly they would sing 'neath amaranthine

bowers,
While angels bath'd where ambei' streams roll'd o'er

Perrenial flowers.
Then, had they ever blessed the names — while Bays im-
mortal deck

And deathless laurels bind the brows of Babbitt and of
Beck,

What scenes did you back to my memory call,

When I trod on thro' your great Quincy Hall.

1 knew that Agriculture long ago,

Caused various knowledge thro' the world to flow,

l<'rom whence the Arts that humanize arose,

And to mankind did all their charms disclose.

'Twas my desire to see your Mart-and when

I traversed here, I found you perfect gentlemen-

I thought that great things would entrance my eyes,

But what I saw might well the Bard surprise;

Beyond expectation's highest flight.

Your famed Emporium open'd to my sight,

Still round the magic dome I fondly glide

And see new wonders rise on every side.

I thought at first that I might still rehearse,

The names of all your Implements in verse.

But soon I knew 'twould take an endless strain.

To name them all— to count them all were vain;

For from its grandeur and it large extent

It has no rival on this continent,

And I doubt not 'twould clip the wings of pride

From all the nations thro' the world beside.

Let visitors to Boston give a call

And view their large Warehouse in Quincy Hall,

They'll hear the most intelligent discourse,

And find a friendly heart in Uii. Noubse,

» B..>iv. ,1 , . Sheffikld, Duke of Buckinghamshire.

winks, and a pinion that never iireZ'^Zs'Stl^ C^^^SS. "*"*'

Lo! every age and nation of the world,

Has seen the arrows of the envious luirl'd

In darkened clouds black as Egyptian night,

lichpsmg genius in its brilliant flight.

Full many a youthful Bard in early bloom,

With broken heart has filled the untimely tomb.

Chased by the hell-hound of a cruel host.

And left posterity to mourn their Poet lost

Tliousands indeed! let history's rolls attest.

From Homer to the Minstrel of the West, '

Have felt the blast of persecution, wild, ''

Piercing the spirit of each Nature's Child;

Not Bards alone, but other men renowned, '

In Sciences and Arts— wliose names resound

With thrilling echoes of a thousand years,

Tlirough all the regions of two hemispheres;

Even they— full many too have sunk beneath,

The iron storm, and bow'd their noble heads in death!

Tlieir gentle spirits were not formed for strife.

To battle with the darkening ills of life.

Equal in fame, though not in fate, with those

In western skies— another orb arose.

The most profound attention he commands

O'er all the interior seas and forest lands.

A rival to the world's most famous names,

Our own esteem 'd, belov'd, illustrious JAMES;

His muse burst from th' happier realms above.

Like great Minerva, from the «• brain of Jove."

TIIE BOSTONIAD.

m i

Mild as a morn in Spring— and calm

As Zephyr laden with the purest balm.

Aroused! he emblems out the wild uproar

Of Jove's own thunders and Numidia's Lion's roar.

Mildness is past-and pity lives no more!

Let hostae cowards, sunk in sin and shame,

Publish their slanderous works without a name;

Then fly to covert-shivering with distress,

As oft did Tyros of this country's press.

*♦.***
In actions noble, and of manners fre«,
Known for unbounded generosity ;
None of the human race e'er asked in vain
Thy>id in money, or a glowing strain.
No country—age — no color, and no sect,
Didst thou for thy benevolence select.
Thy purse is ever open as thy heart.
Thy heart as open as thy face, which smiles impart.
Bright as the sunbeams, that in glory play,
Equal on all, through all the blessed day:
Hundreds, dear Bard, thy native worth attest.
And name thee weU, « Great Orator of the West."
If you but once a right acquaintance own—
If once your virtues all to us are known—
You must be loved till we can love no more.
And with affection every heart runs o'er ;
A dreadful foe! but friends you ne'er betrayed.
Each day and night, through years, you lent them aid;
Wh^t wonder then the greatest in this land
Should ever stretch to you the welcome hand;
Well may they be assured— applaud and smile.
You ne'er forget them in the day of trial !
Blessings ^o from many a lowly bed,
Form a bright halo round thy darling head;
Whenever want or sickness yet hath grieved,
'Twas guardian-angel like by thee relieved:
Thy name on every list we plainly see,
Sure sign of thy illustrious pedigree;
Thy word will pass for more than I might count.
With many a business man, whate'er the amount.

A good man, still, will lift on high his voice.
And e er in virtue's sacred cause rejoice.
Ihat we have one great Bard amongst us now.
Whose song doth like a mighty river fio^ ;
Opposing rubbish, in its torrents thrown,
bmks beneath an empire-all his own-
Live long, sweet Bard, to satirize the vile-
Strengthen the weak, make Virtue's cause to smile-
Legions of friends and patrons round you throng. '
Who will for aye uphold the Child of song-
Who honor, love, respect in every truth,
Thy energy—and enterprising youth.
Be still undaunted-though the floods of Hell,
Should o'er these lands in fiery tumult swell, ;
Lift up your head, above the earth, in flames.
And be the Avorld's great Orator, illustrious JAMES!

He is the favorite, and his glories glow,
From Oregon to farthest Mexico ;

To go to Mr. Pettengill and ADVERTISE.

He bade Athense's primest towers arise.
In regal splendor to the western skies ;
He caused her halls with sculptured pomp to glow.
And taught the other builders all they know.
When rolling ages shall have passed away
And Sol shall rise upon a distant day.
Some future generation then shall say.
Behold these turrets wrapt' in orient flame !
Radiant with grandeur ! eloquent with fame !
See Mansions, Halls, Exchange's, all erect.
Stand monuments to their superior architect.
We place him high amidst the brilliant throng,
Whom nations honor'd and whom bards have sung.
And with whose fame the earth and ocean rung.

F^ IMPORTANT. .^

It was my intention, at fivst, to publish a Poern on the
rise and progress of Boston, only; together with a des-
cription of its principal establishments; but the Busmess
Cards were hurried in so fast, that I finally concluded to
publish a complete Business Poem, for the modem Athens.
The first ever published in the world. It will be seen
that it contains the best names in America- that were
seldom, equalled -certainly never excelled, in any age

of the world.

Theseoond edition will be published in an enUvg^
form, immediately after new year's day, 1853. M the
names in the present will appear in the f«'»'« ^"^ •
and now let me say a word to my patrons. If I h» «
found favor in your eyes, I ask y«» ^ ™rn!^r
Cards of your friends without delay. ''^^ *f J-^^,
on the same principle as your own. ftr.« come, firU

I intend to write an Epic loem lor i

Sciences to be published at the time of the New YorK

Swon! and I desire to enter into engagements w. h

:Z " have it splendidly '"-"^^tmTt Jl
. this kind will better agree with the ^l'^"'*''''?* ""^
nro«ess of the age in which we live, than one wnttenon
LTb^y old hero, whose passport to fame happened
thro' fire and ruin;

A small part of this elegant book will be reserved for
Potti^ Advertisements; a rare chance occurs now
!uTas never happened before, either in the New or Old
Worid l^spiriJmerchants, manufacturers and pro-
fessional men aspiring to eminence.

RE-i'lLECTIOX OF MAYOR SEAVER.

)

Written i/y the Hon. Jus. Torrington Spencer LiUstone.

Pulilislied at tin- Opoiiiiig of the Tolla.

" Til vain tho sttepy hUl opposed my way,
Jn vain the war of apesu's sutler

—riiund my Jioiul
And planted all my shield —
I wcin th'r rampart, and 1 );aint'd the trenches,
While their foremost men ia^'M oii the plain below."

John Dkyobn.

lie is the pride of public life — of private life the charm,

lli8 liberal and his noble heart in friendship ever ■warm —

The mij?ht of virtuous eloquence shall consecrate his name ^'^

Foremost upon the banner rolls of everlasting fame, ^^

1^1^ He stood a rock amidst a sea of fire in ages gone, .^^

I^J^ lie was your Mayor the year before the best — the only one, gl^

Although he reared no pondrous piles to give himself a S|bi(
NAME,- WT'

When granite towers fall down to dust he'll live in death-
less fame,

The Muse shall long his praise prolong —

You may well believe her —

No fanatic dare oppose the power of our Mjiyor Seaver,

* * * * #

Not Homer's awful might nor Pindar's burulug lyre,
So much my soul delight so much my soul inspire,
As your beloved form advancing on from victory
Where like an angel in the storm you made th' lightning's ^^

fly, ^^

Transcendant lionours w'ait on you full blown in blossom ^^
they shall ilower, j^(i<

AVhile we have MKX with hearts so true to hold the reins H^
ot* power, }^S

As sunbeams thro' the gates of MORN light all the worlds %
on high.

So Boston's annals you'll adorn to late posterity.
