BT JAMES KENNY. KSQ.
Dear Tom, my bravo, fire-bexHe 1 lad,
Whero'ryou go.tio.l bleu yon !
You'd better speak than wish yon had,
If love lor mo distress you.
To me, (hoy ny, yous lliOnghta incline.
And pos-ibtv they may to ;
Then, or.eb for oil, 10 quiet mine,
Tom, if you love mo, «ay ■ i.
On that sound heart and manly frame
Sits lightly, apoit or labor,
Good-limmir’d, frank, and still the unit,
To parent, friend or neighbor:
Then why piurpono your lore 10 own
Forma, from day io day bo.
And let mewhi«|H-r still atone,
Tom, if you love mo, aay io.
How oft when I waiaiclt, or and
With same remember'd lolly,
The Bight of you has made mn glad,-
And tiien m ist melam'holy I
Ah I why wid thought of one bo good
Upon my spirits prey a« I
by you it should be understood—
'l orn, if you love ne.iaj so.
Last Monday, at ire cricket-match,
No rival Blood liefotc you ;
In harvest time, for quirk despatch
The farmers still adore you ;
And evermore your prniae they sing,
Though one thing you delay «u,
And 1 Bleep nightly murmuring,
Tom, il you love mo, my so.
Whate'cr of our« you chance to seek
Almost before you breathe it,
1 bring u iih blushes on my cheok,
And ill my soul goes with it.
VVhy thank me, then, With voice so loir,
And, faltering, mm away so 7
When nest you come, before you go
Tom.il you love mo, tny so.
When Jasper Wild, besido the brook,
Krseallul round us lower'd,
I olt recall that lion-look,
Tlisl quell'd tbo savage coward.
Bold wolds and free you uttered then :
Would they could find their way to,
Wbon these moist eyes so plain y moan,
Tom, il you love m i, say so.
My friends, 'tin true,nro well to do,
Anil your s are poor end friendless ;
Ah, no ! for they are rich in you,
heir happiness is endless;
'You never let llicm shed a tear,
bare that on you they weigh so ;
There's ono might bring you bettor dinar i
Tom, ifyou love me, say to.
My uncle’s legacy is all
Fur you, Toro, when you chaust it;
In bailer hands n cannot tall,
Or butter trained io use il :

Umvoo'd,unpliglileil stay so:
-Since wealth and ivorili make even lot,

THE THREE BRIDES.
’Du you Bee,' said the sexton, ‘those three
hillocks yonder, side hy side! There sleep
three brides whoso history L mn abonl lu re
late. Look there, sir, on yonder hill, yon
may observe a hula isolated house, with a
straggling fence in front, and a low stunted
appio liens on the ascent behind. It is sad
ly out of repair now, and the garden is all
overgrown with weeds and brambles, and, Ilia
whole place has a desolate appearance, it'
tho wind were high now, yon might hear the
old crazy shutters flipping sgajiißt the sides,
. and the wind tearing the gray shingles oil' the
rolf. Many years ago, there lived in that
house an old man and Ins son, who cttllivu
ted the tew acres of arable land which belong
to if
•The father was a self-taught mao, deeply
versed in the mysteries ofseience, and, ns ho
could te 1 the name of every lljwui (hat hlo.i
coined in the woods and grew in the garden,
.and used to sit up late of nights at Ins books,
•or reading the mystic story of the starry hea
vens, moo thought ho was crazed or bewiloti
,«d, and avoided him, and even hated him us
rthe ignorant ever slum tint gifted and enligh
tteneiT. A few there were, ami among others
;tho uiinisfor, and lawyer and physician of the
•place, whu showed some willingness to afford
him countenance; but they soon dropped In*
-acquaintance, dor they found the old man
.somewhat reserved and morose, and moreover,
-their vanity was wounded hy discovering the
•extent of Iris knowledge. 'l'° lho ministers
.lie would quote the Fathers and Ihe Scriptures
-in tho original tongue, And showed himself
well armed with the weapons t>( polemical
controversy. He astouishe.i lho lawyer wills
ins profound acquaintance with jurisprudence;
and the physician was surprisci} at the extent
of his medical knowledge. Wo iIkY ah de
serted him, and the minister, from v, hom lho
old man differed in some trilling pt. nils of
•doctrine, spoke very slightly of hint; an d hy
and by all looked upon lho self-educated i ar
mor wUh eyes of aversion. Uni he little cat '
-ed for that, for ho derived Ins consolation
•from loftier resources, ami in the untracked
paths of gc enco found a pleasure as in tho |
pathle-s woods! Ho instructed Ins sou in till
his loro—the languages, literature, history, '
science, were unfolded, one hy
one, to the enthusiastic non of tho solitary.
Years rolled away, and the old man died. He 1
,«Lcd when a etonn convulsed lho fsco of na- f
lino, when the wind howled around Ins slid- 1
terod dwelling and thn lightning plsycd above
The roof; and though he went to Heaven in
-Fatih ami purity, the vulgar tboaglil and said 1
that the Evil One had claimed Ins own in the
thunder end commotion of the elements. I
can not paint te you the grief el the son at his
bereavement. He was, for a lime, as one dis
tracted. The minister came a d tutored a
few cold and hollow yhraacs in his ear, and a '
few neighbors, impelled by curiosity to see ‘
the interior oflho old man’s dwelling, canto '
to Ins funeral. With a proud and lolly look '
the son stood above the dust, and the dead in
Abe midst of the b and of hypocritical mour- 1
tiers, with a pang at his heart, hut • serenity 1
on his brow. He thanked his friends for their
kindness, acknowledged thoir courtesy, and
•then strode away from the grave to bury Ins
grief in the privacy of his deserted dwelling,
•Hn found, at first, the solitude of the man- 1
cion almost insupportable, and he priced the
•echoing floors from morning till night, In all '
.the agony of wo and desolation, vainly im- 1
iploring Hetven for relief. It can;-) lu him 1
first in the guise of poetic inspiration. He
wrote with a wonderful case and power. Page
afler page came from hit prolific pen, with
out an cllort; and there was a time when lie
dreamed (vain fool) of immortality. Some
cf his productions came before the world.
They were praised and circulated, and inqiti.
rics were scion foot in the hope of discover
ing tho author. He, wrapped in the impene
trable veil of obscurity, listened to the voice
of applause, more delicious because il was
obtained by strollh. From the obscurity ol
yonder lone mansion, and from tins remote
region, to semi forth lays which astonished
theworld, was, iuJocd, a triumph to the vis
ionary burd.
“His thirst for fume was gratified, and now
lie began to yearn for the companionship of
joine sweet being ol the oilier sex, to share
the laurels he had won, to whisper eonsola
itiou to his ear m moments of despondency,
and to supply the void which the death of Ins
old father had occasioned. Ha would picture
■to himself the felicity of refined intercourse
.with • highly intellectual and beautiful wo- '
man, and, as he had chosen for Ins motto 1
what lias been done may still bo done—lie did
.not despair of success. In tins village lived
threu-eistcrs, all beautiful and accomplished.
Their names were Mnry, Adelaide and Made
leine. tl am far enough past the age of en
thusiasm, but never can I forget the Loamy of
those young girls, Mary was the youngest,
a fair-haired, mare laughing damsel newer

few year* order, was dark-haired and pensive;
but of the threu. Madeleine, tlio eldest, pos

tn eduCMisn.atid being ismewhst above vulgar
prejudices, permitted the vis.ts of the hero of
my story. Still he did not altogether encourage
tire affection which he found springing up be
tween Mary and the pool. When, however,
he found Unit her affections were engaged, he
did not withhold Ins consent from her mar
riage, and lho recluse bore to his solitary man
sion the young bride Os Ida affections. Oh
sir, the boVHto assumed a new appearance,
w.thin and without. Roses bloomed in the
garden, jessamines peeped through its lalti
ccs, and the fields shout il smiled with the ef
fects of careful cultivation. Lights were seen
in the little parlor in the evening, and many
a time would the passenger pause by the gar
don gale, to listen to strains of the sweetest
music, breathed by coral Voices from lho cot
tage. If the niystdtfous student and hia wife
were neglected hy their neighbors, what cared
theyt Their endearing and mti'ual affection
made their home a little paradise. Hut death
came to Eden. Mary fell suddenly sick, and
alter a few hour* illness, died In the arms ol
her husband and her sister Madeleine. This
was the student’s second heavy affliction.
"Days, month* rolled on, and the only so
'kcc of the bereaved was losit with the sisters
of the noi eased and talk of lho lost otto To
Adelaide, at length, he offered hi* widowed
heart. She canto to his lone homo like lho
dove, hearing the olive branch of peace and
connotation. Their bridal wa* not one of re
velry and mirth, for a recollection brooded
over tho hour. Yot they lived happily; the
husband aga n atnilod, and with a new spring,
the rose again blossomed in their garden.
Bit it seemed as if a fatality pursued this
singular man. When the rose withered and
the leaf fell, in the mellow anlnmii of the year.
Adelaide to# aic cned ami died, like her youn
ger * stcr, in the arms of her husband ami of
Madeleine.
“Perhaps you will not think it strange,
young man, that, after all, tlio wretched ear
vivor again stood at the alter. But ho was a
mysterious being, whoso ways were inslrula
bln, wh», thirsting for domestic lilies, was

third bride was Madeleine. I well remember
her. She was a beauty, in the true eonso of
the word. It may seem strange to yon to hear
the praise of beauty from sucTt lips us mine;
but I cannot ovoid expatiating upon h"r«. She
might have set upon a throne, and the most
loyal subject, the proudest peer, would have
sworn tho blood within her veins had descend,
from an hundred kings. Shu was it proud
creature, with a tall commanding form, ami
raven trusses, that floated, dark and cloud
like,over her shoulders. She was a singular
ly gifted woman, ami possessed of rare jnnpi
ration. She loved the witlowerf.ir hia pow
er and lih fame, anil she we lded him. They
wore married in that church. It -.as on a
summer afternoon—l recollect it well. Dur
ing tho ceremony, the blackest cloud I ever
saw overspread tho heavens like a pail, ami at
the moment when the third lirulo pronounc

shrieked, hut the bride bersolf made the
response with a steady voice, and Iter eyes

sexton, rising in lho excitement of tho mo

FIRE IN HAMBLKG.
t Yesterday marning between the hours of ten
and eleven, a fire broke out in the dwelling house
1 of Mr. li. W. Mayson, a merchant of our neigh-
boring town of Hamburg, which was not discov
ered in lime to save the building. Mr. M., we
f understand, was tho agent of (he Bank of the
Slate of South Carolina, and all his papers con
, nected with thn business of die Bank, together
with about $13,000 in money were destroyed,
1 they being in a trunk in (lie room where the fire
, broke out.
[ The Express Mail from the north duo here
r yeHterday morning, did not nrri'e until about
• lialf past 9 o’clock, in consequence of the rider’s
having been way-laid and shot about forty miles
! from this place, in South Carolina. Ho was
| wounded in the leg and became unable to ride.
It is not supposed that tho object was to rob the
I mail, but to seek revenge of the rider, who some
few days previously had his pistol stolen from
him and prosecuted the thiol, anil had him whip
ped, and who now sought to reek his revenge on
the rider by shooting him in the night.

i'hc Courrior Francaia presents some const- 1
derations on the present commercial crisis. Tlio 1
number of failures in Paris since tho commence- ■
ment of 1537, has been four times as great as dur- '
ing the corresponding period of last year. The 1
markets for Uto sale of provisions are glutted ’
purchasers arc scarce in the great provision marts
o) Bcc»ux and Poissy. Ysl the mania for specu- !
latioti, which his proved so injurious in England t
and America, had not made its appearance among s
ns. The harvest has been abundant. The real i
cause of thia di,tress must be sought for in the i
n.oral posi.ion of tlio country and in the want ol :
confidence and public security. The same torpor i
which Government had sought 10 instil into the t
minds of men has communicated itself to their
physical energies; and the material world has re
echoed and produced the sentiment which pre
vadcs the political system. Gloom and despon
d ncy have lienee insinuated themselves through
out the whole frame-work of society.
The Mayor of Lyons left Paris, having come
to the capital for the purpose of communicating
to the Government lire deplorable state of the
silk-weavers, in consequence of the stagnation of
the silk trade. The magistrate is stated to have
insisted strongly on the urgent necessity of sup
plying the thousands of sufferers with bread, by
sllording them employment on lire public works.

municate. Indeed, if the stock* cun he consi
dered any test of the money market, this is the
most gloomy day we have had for a long period.
The hopes that were entertained at the close of
last week, have all been destroyed by the article
recently published in the Globe.
The sales this morning were very light, and at
a reduction of from 1 3 to 6 per cent., on the last
transactions on Monday. United Stales Bank
closed to-day at lI3J, on Monday the closing
prioo was 115 ; Bank of the State of New York
closed to day at 90, which is 5 pet cent below
Monday’s prices ; Ohi* Trust 07,’j, on Monday
101,J ; Manhattan Gas is down 2 per cent,; Har
lem Rail Road 4 pet cent.; Utica closed to-day
at 107 j, the only sale on Monday was at 111,
30 days ; Mohawk is down to 60, on Monday the
cash sales were 61J a 65; Canton i* down to
36, on Saturday it was at 42.
There were several heavy failurcsyestcrday. Mo
ney cannot be obtained on any terms, or any secu
rities. AVe know of a house which suspended
payment yesterday on eighty thousand dollars.
To obtain this amount, ho had bonds of the first
character, and of which, under any circumstances,
there can he no question to the amount of more
than three hundred thousand dollars. And yet
the private deposites in the banks this day amount
to seventeen millions.

Wi,i. Street.— 1 o’clock.—The prospects
are no brighter than they were yesterday, In
deed, inquire of whom you may, the answer is,
(hey are growing worse. Among other failures,
since our last, is another large house in Wall
i street. The slocks arc going down rapidly, and
I where they will stop no one can conjecture.

Extract of a letter from a commercial house, dated
Havre, March 17.
Colton has fallen in price full one cent since the
sailing of tiro previous packet, and some is selling at
almost any price ottered, 't he stock consists of
about 83,090 bales. No hope ofimprovemopt exists,
unless shipments should ho slopped. Manufactur
ed goods are still on the decline, and trade very dull.

MONEY MARKET.
Wednesday, April 19.
There is no alleviation in the money market.
The depression in Wall street is as great as over. ,
1 Yesterday, in consequence of the death of Mr. :
| Win. .M. Robinson, one of the oldest and most
I respectable of the Board of Brokers, no business 1
was transacted by that body. No quotations of 1
stocks can tberetorc be male, although in the ,
street the prices continue drooping. Stock oper- |
lions are sadly diminished from what they were a j i
few months ago. There is very little commcr- j
cial paper now ottered, and less is negotiable. I,
Bank post notes arc already at 1 i to lj per cent j ’
per month, not bearing interest.
It appears that nearly at the same period, in j |
England and the United Slates, the commereial j
community received additional aid from the banks,!
idor the belief that a few weeks would put them | (
i’" f, -ds to carry on the commerce of ihe two 1
" V , The extraordinary depression of ,
ecunliies, . , J rr . 1 . '
southern produ^- nc « rl / 5 ,° P? r ,f nt 0,1 I
three fourths of tin. cri T; will most probably ren
der those aids and as „'stance nugatory, ihe <
advances made in England J hou
ses, amount to 517,500.900—adu •"
in the shape of bonds and post notes, p.’obably SB,- (
500,000— making in all, $26,000,000 Uu. msl "-'d c
by the hanks to sustain these establishments P n i n
both sides of tho water still left standing. Now n
it appears, that at the present price of American (
produce and stocks in England, there will altea- »
dy boa deficiency of $25,000,000, in the exports
and remittances, embracing the same period of
time. This will leave the establishments on both |,
sides worse than they were before, for the govern- a
ment here is determined to hold on upon the spe- It
cic now in the country, received lor the public
lauds, as the only sound basis for the expansions
of our banking system. Cl
Such is tiro exact relations of the two coun- ),
tries to each other—but the denouncement will tl
net appear in either till the month of May or oi
June. We do not seo in the current of events h
any hope of unexpected aid to interfere between * '
us and the catastrophe. If any should take place, a|
we shall bo greatly disappointed. ' sf
In the meantime, failures take place. Since r( .
Saturday we have a list of fifteen in all, some of B
them very Urge houses, anti always considered 1
solvent until the present disastrous crisis. The
whole number of failures up to IhU dale are esti- e
mated to he 190, large and small, embracing an
amount of liabilities equal to sixty millions of 1
dollars. Their asscits arc estimated generally as
follow:
Description of assets, Estimated value. Real val. ]
Luts and real estate, 15,000,000 5,000,000
.Notes & debts ol south-west, 30,000,000 5,000,000 I
Bills ot exchange returned, 10,000,000 1,000,000
Notes and debts elsewhere, 10,000,000 5,000,000 1
I’iopr-rty on band in goods <fc
chattels, 10,000,000 10,000,000 I
75,000,000 26,000,000 I
Thus showing a dead loss of furtjj-uine mil- 1
lions, in six weeks, by the depreciation in pro
perty, caused in the existing convulsion. The
general statements of assets are entirely [chimer
ical. AVc even doubt whether we have not esti
mated them too high.
The bank money of other stales is now entirely
unncgocialilc in AVall street. Hardly a broker
will touch a New England bill, and if things go
on as they are going, such currency will soon he
quoted at a great depreciation. The accounts of
failures and depression in the Boston money mar
ket, increase the distatc to deal or trade in New
England money. Since Saturday last, it is re
ported that failures have taken place in Boston,
and other places eastward, to the amount of se
veral millions. The “Boston Courier” says, in
one day in Boston, the amount was more than a
million. The indissoluble connection between
the men of business, and the banking system in
that region, begins to make our brokers wary of
all New England money. Every clique of busi
ness men in New England have their own banks,
which is merely a blanch of the business estab
lishment, although nominally it ranges under the
banking system. In Lowell, Boston, Lynn,
Taunton, I’rovidcncc, failures have taken place.
There is also a great want of confidence in Bos
ton, and money is up to 1$ and 2j per cent a
month.
In western New York there is a difficulty ge
nerating. Many of the bank managers of that
region have been in town lor some time, endeav
oring to make arrangements to sustain themselves.
There is a great scarcity of money in that quar
ter, and their bank paper is returning upon them.
The exlrordinary decrease in the price of (lour
will cause a loss of nearly $250,000, if not more,
on the slock on hand, owned by the western spe
culators. The hanks of the west are the basis of
these speculations in bread stuffs, and the fall of
the price of (lour has accordingly alarmed the
hanks themselves. Western hank money is nearly
in the same unnegociable condition as that of
New England— and both will probably circulate,
in a short time, at a great discount;
In this stale of things, the spirit & policy of the
government is beginning to create a new crisis—
the most alarming of any that has yet assailed us.
The great struggle in the commercial world is
for the specie—which is the basis of all the ex
isting values and operations in mercantile affairs.
Besides ibis general struggle between Europe
and America, the Washington government has
commenced a new struggle, of a local natuie, for
the specie now in the banks. For a year past
in consequence of the peculiar doctrines flung be
fore the people by general Jackson and by his
successor, there has been a gradual steady ab
straction of gold and silver from the banks. We
know a single bank in this city that has, in the
course of the two last past months, redeemed in
gold and silver, an amount of its notes equal to
its capital. This process heretofore’ has been con
fined to a small portion of the community—the
locofocos. From the tone and policy of the
government at Washington, it appears that
they arc possessed with the same spirit, and
that the transfers of surplus revenue contin
ue to he demanded in specie. If the private
depositors of lire banks should pursue the
same policy, and demand their deposites in
in specie, the denouement will bo complete. It
is very evident that whoever gets hold of the spe
cie, bo it the government or the depositors, at
that moment every dollar would appreciate in
value, and bo equal to two or three at the pre
sent rates.
The struggle for the possession of the specie is
the great crisis to be apprehended, and the course
of Ihe government—lhe tone of their prints—the
action of all ils departments appear to he hasten
ing that terrible calamity upon us. If such an
event should lake place, we would not be in Mr.
\ r an Burcn’s shoes, for all the honor or mone y
he can get by his four years.
