Martin Ynn liurpff ? s Fall. In‘s amusing to mark the imoderaleil tone in vrhidi many of Mr. Van Bunin's supporters now speak of him. The fisciiujlion under which thev have moved for the last;three yeaa, seems to have lost its charm. The vaful of the magi- I cian is brisker. —the blind h;>vo recovered their eye-sight, and the dumb beg-.n to speak. And judging from the developments of opinion which the changed condition of things daily produces, it will scarcely excite our wonder if, at the end of this term, Mr. Van Bun n should find it diffi cult to discover a single pe rsofial friend to escort him hack to Kinderhonk. rl? has no personal popularity. None of his adherents feel an at tachment to him, and when tin: lasi parasite turns his back on him, lie will stand friendless in the midst ol the political desolation which he has pr*- duced. 'i he evils brought upon the country by his administration—tne apprehension of oiners idill more pernicious, should .1 ie prolonged—and the recollection of the deaf ead which he has in variably turned to the complaints of a suffering people—combine to prevent ai§y feeling of sym pathy from rising within usjwhen we behold the caily des Mon of some cl' h.s friends—the trequent symptoms of coming rlesertion in others, and the diminished zeal of lot eulogists. The j decline ot a great man may julitiy challenge our admiration and respect: but when high preten pio'n, unbacked by any sterling qualities of gen ius or virtue, elevated by accident, sinks back in to the obscurity from which ii ought |never lo have been raised, we can only fontemplate it as a proof that the laws which govern destiny are irrepealable, and approve the st|rn justice which oharactizes the moral government of the universe. Mr. Van Burcn had no heart i|» instruct him to relieve public distress. His in ense gaze on the one point at which his ami ition has aimed caused him to overlook the inlc csts ol his coun try, and the contemplation of hi great and event ful errors, will prevent his com try from wasting a single glance on his iiiclivitiu d fate. He will not be disturbed in the obscurity before him, until ■ he is summoned to the tribunal', f history. And ■ he can m ver look to that ordeal without terror.— ■ Madisonian. 1“ Wiiat out Stale Rights to 'asure has Van Burcn ever supported ?” T is very pertinent question was sometime since propounded oy Judge Upshur. No man has t ired lo answer it —lt is unanswerable. Was it hen he opposed Mr. Madison and the war] V.'hen he suppor ted the Missouri Restrictions?

Was u when te urged a Bank rupt law. to subject State Cur- >rulurns' to the Federal Executive? Was it, w ;en he could not too strongly recommend the Slanging Army Plan, by which the Militia were to Ih ansfered from the commanu of the Stales to l,»u. of the Presi dent, in lime of peace ?

A mongrel, oetween the'•bepheni’s dog and ter rier. a great favorite in a farmhouse, was stand ing by while his mistress was walking some of her < hiidren. Upon asking a boi whom she had just dressed to bring his sister’s cinbes from the next room, he pouleu and h.sitatfrj, ‘Oh. then,’ said the mother, ‘Mungo will leU* them.’ She said this byway of reproach to It** boy, for Mun go had not I sen accustomed lo fcl h and carry. But Mungo was intelligent and i obedient; and witnout father command, he broi|.;ht the child’s frock to liis astonished mistress. < 'J'his was an effort of imagination in Mungf>, which dogs certainly po.- css in a considerubl: degree. He had often observed, doubtless, llie business of dressing the children; and the iLstant he was appealed to, he imagined what Lii- mistress wan ted. Every one knows ihe anxitiy which dogs feel to go out with their masters, if ;thcy have been accustomed so to do. A dog w tli Tien anticipate the journey of his owner; and, g» ?ssing the road the means to take, steal away to » considerable • distance on that road lo avoid foil g detained at home. \Vc have repeatedly this circum stance.

We have been by an ini lligent spoils man, mat, returning hdme*in the usk with his pointer, the dog all at r behind him, and refused to advance, in spite ol his master’s threats. Upon looking toward lh|iiorizon before him, the sportsman descried what teal first look lor a tall man. with a broad bat. c ended arms, and a body as thin a» a lath. Th - object, which p'oduced the dog’s alarm, was a g gantic thistle, which the gray of the twilight hac magnified in to fearful dimensions The credt ous once be lievul that du.us and borstes could see spirits, by their often starting without any aj oarenl cause. Bucb instances as this of the thisli might have given rise to the superstition. “The faculty by which animals an communi cate their ideas to each other is vry striking; in dogs it is particularly remarkable. Tfieie are many curious anecdotes recorded idlustrative of this faculty. . '' ' f I ‘The following story which illustrates in a sin gular manner the communication oxidcas between d‘ gs, was told bv a clergyman us a| authentic an fedote; A surgeon of in the sub- Ur -s of that town, found a little spaniel who had been I.< rued. He earned the poor Imimal home, bandaged up his leg. and,after twolor three days, turned him out. The dog returned lo the sur gfou s house every morning till h * leg was per fectly well. At the end of severs*. months the spaniel again presented himself, in Jompany with pfiolhtr dog, which had also been li&ned ; and he intimated, as well as piteous and in|tdligent looks could Intimate, that he desired the arae kind as s ant e to he rendered to his tiieru? as had been . cstowed upon hiniself.— A similatM‘ircum6t «nce ‘seated to have occurred to Mora -it, a celebra ' French surgeon. ' v hat is generally called the do fility of dog? tb? faculty of being taught tricks contrary to i thoir natures, is curious, but far from pleasing: ' the perfection is generally attained by cruelly. It i is more agreeably to witness a natural docility ; i Etu has that t f the shepherd s dog, who learns to distinguish every sheep of a large flock ; and who will drive them through the crowded streets w ith I a foresight perfectly wonderful. Some of the i finest dogs in the world are those which watch , the Met ino sheep upon the Spanish mountains. They wear large collars with spikes, to protect them from the attacks of the wolves ; and they conduct their flocks with a gentleness which is only equalled bv their courage. When they re turn to the folds, the dogs bring up the stragglers without violence; and the man walks at their head in the true pastoral style so beautifully described in the Psalms: ‘ihe lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me lie down in j green pastures; he Itadcth me beside ihe still I waters.’” ‘•We have alluded to those exhibitions of re markable attachment between animals of oppo site natures, which are sometimes so interesting in menageries. J hose attachments are more fre quent with dogs than with other animals, proba bly because they are more capable of attachment. Ihe friendship between dogs and horses is too common to attract notice ; but every now and then we hear of an attachment where vre might have expected an antipathy. Dr. Fleming, in his in teresting book, ‘The Philosophy of Zoology,’ quoirs from Montague’s supplement to hisOrni tholog cal Dictionary the following account of a singular friendship, which subsisted between a China goose and a pointer which had kiilied the gander. ‘Ponto (for that was the dog’s name) was rn»st severely pun sited for the misdemeanor, and had the dead bird tied to his neck. The so litary goose became extremely distressed for the loss of her partner and only companion ; and, prohab y, having been attracted to the’dog’s ken nel by the sight ot her dead mate, she seemed de termined to persecute Ponto by her constant at tendance and continual vociferations; but, after a little lime, a strict amity and friendship subsis ted between these incongruous animals. They fed out of the same trough, lived under the same roof, and in the same straw bed kept each other warm, and when the dog was taken to the field, the inharmonious lamentations of the goose for the absence of her friend were incessant.”’ Consignees per South Carolina liail Uoatl.
