You wonder if Frank ever loved Nelly one half as well as you love Madge ? You feel quite sure he never did.

You blush a little at first telling your butcher what ‘your wife’ would like : you bargaiu with the-grocer for sugar and teas, and wonder if he knows you are a married man ?

You Wonder if anybody was ever so happy before, or ever will be so happy again ? You enter your name upon the hotel Philadelphia & Savannah Steamers. —The Savannah Republican of Friday last, says :—“We learn from a private letter that the steamship State of Georgia, buildingat the ship yard of Messrs. Vaughn A Linn, in Kensington, is nearly ready for launch ing. The letter states that she was to be, launched on Tuesday last. The Philadelphia Ledger says, that “the immense boiler intended for the new steam ship State of Georgia, to be commanded by Capt. Peck, are nearly completed at the Southwark foundery, and the engine is now ready to be put on board. The bed-plate, cylinder, steam-chests and other portions of the machinery have been put together in the shop, so that there will be the least pos sible delay when the work is actually com menced on board.” Constitutional Union Meeting.—At meeting of the Union members of the Legislature, the following resolutions were adopted, with some dissenting voices: 1. Resolved, That it is the fixed deter mination of the Constitutional Union Party, as has been heretofore frequently junouii- ced, to unite with that national party ouly, which will adopt as a part of its creed the principles et forth in the resolutions of the Georgia and Mississippi Conventions. 2.

Coins are'being struck- off, inscribed with “Louis Napoleon, Em peror.” It is said that the sovereigns, of Europe have notified Napoleon that they are prepared to enforco the article of the treaty of Vienna, which forbids any de scendant of the Emperor Napoleon succeed ing to Imperial titles. Hungary.—The latest advices from Hun gary state, that for the present all foreign newspapers are forbiddtn in Hungary. No passports of any kind, or on any pretence, are granted for Hungary, which is to be shut up from the knowledge of the rest of Europe a* much as China or Japan. The Austrian newspapers are forbidden to refer to any movement of the imperial family, without authority. _ Legislative Present's.—The Federal Union of the 20th inst., says:—“The mem bers of the House of Representatives, by individual subscriptions, purchased a gold headed cane and presented it to their Mes senger, Mr. Oslin, in token of their high ap preciation of his merits sii a faithful and at tentive officer. The Senate has since fol- lowedfin the footsteps of the House,and pre sented thier Messenger, Mr. Mitch el, with a similar token of respect.” v ' Kossuth Coming tA Savannah.—The Savannah Morning News gives the follow ing bill of particular*, of the probable movements of Kossuth : “It is said that after his visit to Pittsburg, Gov. Kossuth will proceed to Columbus, Cincinnnati, StLouis and New Orleans, stop ping at several intermediate places. He will then, in turn, visit Mobile, Savannah Thence he will proceed by Four free negroes, belonging to Boston brig, were -recently detected in en deavoring to secrete a slave on board the vessel, while lying in the port at Galveston, Texas, They induced him to steal a quan tity of clothing.before he came on board. The plot was discovered, and the whole par ty arrested. Upon the slave’s evidence, the free negroes were convicted. /, There is at this moment a most singular coalition being formed between the aboli tionists and disunionists to controul that Convention. No sensible man can disclose his eyes to the fact. Van Buren, Blair, Benton, and their free-soil. coadjutors, are marshalling their forces at the North. Rhett, Commander. McDonald and Quitman are gathering together the scattered members of the Coffin Regiments at the,South. These men, defeated in their late treasonable schemes, are'now about to combine for the purpose of subsidizing and controling the national Democracy. They will accomplish their purpose too—-unless defeated by a Cotton Burnt.—-Three freight cars con taining 120 bales of cotton, were burnt on the South western Railroad on Wednesday^ last. One hundred feet of the superstruc- prquipt movement on the part ofthe Union ture of the Road was likewise burned. $gT Monda)', the 19th inst., Is reported to have been the coldest day ever experi enced in New Orleans.

A SHORT ARTICLE FOR EVERY BODY TO READ. The Union men of the /South will soon be called upon to settle a very important question iu regard to the next Presidential election. They will soon have to decide whether they will stand aloof Irom the old and thus endeavor to men of the South. Here iu our very midst they Ere changing their names, repudiating their pri neiples, and preparing to associate with what, a few months since, they termed “the radical and rotten Democracy of the North! 1 ' Open Disunionists, who denoun ced Yankeesi—who refused to trade with them, or to admit them into their family circle-—are now ready to embrace the “sweet little fellow” of Kinderhook. and the whole horde of his abolition followers. Even the Hon. Representative from the first District is found closetted with such men as Disney of Ohio! Verily, “coming events cast their shadows before.” Now, we hope that the Union men of the South will send delegates to Baltimore for the purpose of breaking up this infamous coalion between the Abolitionists and Fire Eaters—we hope they will send delegates there who will co operate with the true Jack- son Democracy—re-affirm the doctrines of the Georgia Convention—engraft the prin eiples of the Compromise upon the Balti more Platform, and bring out some such man as Mr. Buehman for the Presidency. - For ourselves, we honestly believe that this is the only way in which the country cau be saved. If the Southern Union men remain out of that Convention, the Coin pro mise wing of the Democratic party—the true Jackson Democracy will overwhelm ed by the combined power of the Van Bu- renites and the Rhettiies—a Free Soil, anti Compromise ticket will be nominated—the slavery agitation will be re-opeued, and the Union will be lost. * We throw out these hints for the reflec tion of our Union friends in the Legislature, and hope they will take some action in the premises before they disperse. The time for action is at hand. This is a day of pro gress- Parties, like individuals, must move forward, if they expect to accomplish great results. Why not hold a meeting, pass resolutions, appoiut committees, and take action at once? Now is the time for Geor gia to lead off. Alabama holds her Union Convention in a few days. A- spoiitaneou movement on the part of the Union men of , ! penetrated to the vicinity of Monclove, and returned without molestation. Their ob ject, it is said, was to recapture’runaway negroes; but it is supposed that they .inten ded to join Carvajal, if he had been success-, ful in his attack on-Cerralvo. The Caraanches, taking advantage of the disturbed state of the Mexican frontier, have made a foray upon some of the small settlements above Laredo, and carried a- way a considerable number of horses. Be tween the Indians and the contending for ces of Carvajal and the troops of the central Government, the poor people of Tamauii* pas and Coahuila are in a deplorable con dition. They dare not side with either party, and are wholly unable to protect themselves against the invasion of the sav ages. „ Georgia Legislature. Senate. January 19.

New Paper.—A new paper published ice until she had reached the middle of the river, when the ice broke, immersing her in water up to the arms, and seizing hold of the edge of the ice kept from sinking al together. Her cries brought the neighbors to the shore, and a boat was obtained for her relief, but alas, none had the courage to enter, it for her rescue. Those on shore looked on for more than: an hour, when the poor girl, becoming exhausted and frozen,, slipped off ai d disappeared under the ice. Even after she had given up her hold on the fee, she swam on the surface for some time, aud yet no effort was made to save her life. its organization and unite in the selection of sound, able, patriotic candidates. This is the question to be decided—and it must be decided promptly and wisely— for upon the decision hang the destinies of the country. A national Union organiza^ tiou is out of the question—it is impractica ble now, and is likely to remain so for some years to come. The finality ot the Compro mise will be an important issue in the next campaign; but it will not be tne only issue. Other questions of thrilling import will be mingled in the canvass. A National Union Party would be based upon one idea, and that is impracticable at present. The Union men of the South, in our opinion, can accomplish their purposes, and establish theii principles as effectually with out a national Union organization, as with it. They now control the States of Geor gia, Alabama, Forida, Mississippi, Louisiana, Kentucky, Tennessee/Virginia, North Car olina and Maryland. It is possible they might rally a majority even in South Car olina. The votes of these States are not sufficient to elect a President, but if thrown in one body into a national Convention, they might secure the selection ot a proper can didate, whose election they would place beyond a doubt. It is, then, the true and evident policy ot the Union men of the South to send dele gates to one of the ajfjproaching National Conventions. If asked, which Convention? we would answer, unhesitatingly, to the one ; which assembles at Baltimore on the 1st Tuesday .in June next. ...* It is impossible for Union men to affili ate with the Northern Whigs. As a na tional organization, the Whig party no Ion ger exists. It is disorganized and disban ded. The Northern portion of it is led and controlled mainly by Free Soilers and fac- tionists. Even Messsrs. Fillmore and Web ster have losttheir influence there, because, in their official capacities, they have been disposed to do simple justice to the South. Co-operatiou with such men as Seward, and Dayton, and Corwin, is out of the question --especially as the great mass of their fol lowers are Wholly unsound an the slavery question.. ; The Democratic party at the North is less obnoxious to this charge. The true Democracy there are led by such men as Buchanan, and Cass and Dickinsou—by at large. Now is the time for action aud we hope the Union men at the Capitol may embrace the auspicious opportunity to ac complish such great results—Macon Jour nal & Messenger. Fire in Macon:—Ou yesterday morning, at a few minutes after one o’clock, a fire was discovered in a small wooden building, near the corner of Second and Cherry streets The alarm was instantly given, and a great cumber of citizens hastened to the scene of action, but the combustible nature of the house in which the fire originated defied every exertion to save the building. Tbe bouses in the vicinity were mostly old wood en buildings, and caught witltgreat rapidi ty. Notwithstanding it had just ceased raining, and there was but little wind, ill a few moments the whole square bounded by Cherry, Second and Third streets, to the alley between Cherry and Poplar streets, was enveloped in flames. The amount of property destroyed by this calamity is very- considerable, and the loss falls with great weight upon a portion of the sufferers/ as we regret to learn that some of them had no insurance. Amotig tile sufterers are the following persons, though to what extent we have not been advised: J. T. Hardeman, A. C. Morehouse & Co., James A. Ralston, Estate of Dr. Bartlett, Thos. N. Eden, j.

Douglass, of Illinois, and Wright, of Indiana. These men are: sound, and* their followers are sound. In their general politics, they differ but little from the great mass of Union men at the Soiith, while they all favor the finality of the'^feplomise, o^ppsq the fur ther agitation of the slavery question, and repudiate fanaticism and ultraism in every shape.
