Oh, give me back my cottage home, ,

To me these changeful scenes appear

They wake no smile, excite no fern.
Not e’eu one thrill to warm my hcait.
I gaia upon lire circling dance.
Whore Beauty trip* to Frolic's measure;

And all lire joysol earlieryoam

Dimmed by the shadowy mist of tears.
Oh I take these roses fmin my huir—
They ill befit so cold a brow;
Believe me, they will wither there,
And perish like love’s broken sow.
Unbind this gem-wrought gitdlo, too—
Beneath an aching heart ’us preat;
Coiildst though ita painful feelings view,
And bow it sighs to be at rest.
Thou wouldst not deem that gem or flower

Is lost to joy and sympathy.
Away ! Thia false tirade of art
For me no longer hath a charm;
My spirit seeks hut to depart
To its last home.—dentil’s dreamless culm.
Wc find the following interesting translation
from the German, in the Uostini Morning
Post, and it gives ns much pleasure to lay u
hefuru our readers. Wc presume it is from
the pen of that accomplished gentleman and
bellet letlres scholar, N. Greene, Esq., post
master, at Boston.
THE HARP.
It was the first week of the honey-moon.
Neither sordid calculation, nor yot n inert}
passing fancy, had led to the marriage ol Ed
ward Scllrier aud ios'young bndo. No—their
bond of union was a pure ami glowing affec
tion, proved by lima and consecrated by many
trials.—They had early known and apprecia
ted each other, hut tin: long delay id' an ex
pected oliicial appointment had compelled
Scllner to |tostpono the realisation ol Ins wish
es. At length the inovh-dcsircd commission
came, and, on the following Nalihal.li, holed
his beloved maiden to her new homo, n bride.
Tho ludious days of ceremony mill (festivity
over,the happy pair were left to pass the pleas
ant summer evenings in t he sweat coiniiiuiiings
of their pure dt confidingiioaria. I, tile plans
sos their future life,Edward’s (lute & Josoplm's
harp,served to fill up hours whxlt Mew hut 100
rapidly away, and the deep harmony of their
instruments seemed to them a friendly passage
of that deeper accord which was In Idem their
wedded years. One evening, alter Invmg.
enjoyed llmir music until a filer hour than
usual, Josi pint complained ol a pain in her
head. She had, indeed, an attack of it in the
morning, but refrained from mentioning il to
her husband, lest it should cause li in in e.lless
anxiety. The excitement ol the imiuie, how
ever, acting upon a constitutionally weak,nor
vous system, so considerably increased a pre
viously slight fever, that she now no longer
•ancealed her ndisposition, but anxiously re
quested that medical aid 'might Ini called.—
The physician, dooming her dlneis slight.pro
mised nn entire recovery by the next morning.
Poor Josephs, however, passed an extremely
restless night, through the whole ol which she
raved incessantly, and, on repeating Ins visit
tlio next morning; he found In r with all the
symptoms of a serious nervous lever. Not
withstanding tho application of every remedy
which affectionate zeal and professional in
lolhgencc could suggest, her illness increased.
Hollnur was almost distracted. The physician
finally (bit it Ins duly to inform him that Ins
wile could not survive the attack; and, on the
ninth day, Josephs herself became aware that
there was no longer any ground fori ope. Nhe
fell that her lari hour was approaching, and,
with a calm resignation, awaited her fate.
“Dear Edward," end she to her husband,
folding him in a lust embrace, “with deep re
gret do I leave tins fair earth where I have
enjoyed so inneli happiness with yon ; hut id
thongh 1 may no longer be happy in your
arms, yet shall Jo.xopha’s faithful spirit hover
about the object of ns earthly alTeetions, nut d
wc meet again above." Then, sinking back
upon her pillow, she fell asleep in death. It
was the ninth hour nl tlio evening. What
Sellncr suffered is beyond the power of words
to express. The blow prostrated his health,
and long he wrecited with the destroying an
gel. When at length he arose Irma Ins sick
Led, all ..the strength and elasticity of you'll
was go.no, he was ountinnally lost in sad reve
ries, and was evidently last lading away. A
profound melancholy had succeed the violence
of despair, and a sdent sorrow consecrated the
memory of the loved and Inst, lie had lei's
Joscpha's apartment just «s it was before her
death. Her work still laid upon the table,
and her harp remained untouched m its accus
tomed place. Taking his flute, Noll nor every
evening made a pilgrimage to this sanctuary
of his Tore, and loaning against the window
M in happier limes, breathed m plaintive tones
hia aspirations fur the spirit of the departed.
On one occasion he was standing thus in
Joscpha’s chamber —a clear moon shone thro’
the window, and a watchman upon the lower
of a neighboring castle was proclaiming the
ninth hour—when suddenly the harp, as if
touched by some invisible spirit, poured forth
the most thrilling tones, in harmony with
thoec of hi* Bute. In the confusion of his
surprise he ceased to play, and lo ! the harp
•Iso became silent—Recovering Ins sclf-pos
■esaion, he tremblingly commenced Joscpha’s
favorite air, and again the melodious tones of
(he harp blended in sweet response. Sinking
to the earth in a paroxysm of joy, and spread
ing, out bis arms to encircle the beloved s ade
befell a breath as ol warm vernal air upon Ins
lips, while a pale and glimmering light seem
ed to Bit before him. Glowing with ocstacy,
he cried : “ I recognise thee, blessed shade
• fray Josephs I Thou didst promise that thy
faithful spirit should hover about mo; (lion
hast kept thy word; I led thee near me; I fed
thy breath on ray lips !” In a state of inde
scribably exaltation he seized his dole again,
and again the answering tones of the harp
were heard, but constantly fainter anti fainter,
until their whisperings were lost in expiring
harmonies. Bellner’s vital powers were fear
fully excited by the spirit-greeting of this eve
ning; lie threw himself restlessly upon Ins
bed, and in all his feverish dreams the sweet
whisperings ol (he harp were continually
heard. He awoke late, weaned and exhaus
ted by the phantasies of the night—he fellttiu'
his whole being was strangely affected, and
became strongly impressed that his dissolution
was approaching. Willi impatient lunging
he awaited the return of evening, and with
confident hope again repaired to Josoplm's
chamber. By tho aid of the llute, he had
succeeded in lulling himself into a slate of
dreamy repose, when thu ninth hour had
•truck. Hardly had the last stroke of the <
clock ceased lo vibrate, when the harp began |
its soft and Jow responses |o the slut", ii - tones
gradually increaring in strength, until they 1
swelled into the most full and perfect liarmo,
ny. When the flute became sdent, the spirit
tone ceased; the pale, tremulous light again 1
flittered about him, &- in his beatitude he could i
xmly exclaim: ‘Josephs,Josephs! take, oh take ,
toe to your faithful bosom!"
Thia time also, the spirit took iu departure
19 low and murmuring tones, which were gra
jiuflly jv 4 ’ ,D uMUjdfWi vibrations. Ne liter 1
tottered back to Ins own room, stilt more af
fected than nn (ho previous evening. His t
faithful servant was shocked at his master’s | j
appearance, and in defiance of his prohibition
hastened for the physician, who happened to 1
he one of Meitner's most intimate friends.—
The physician found him inn high (ever, with '
symptoms similar to those of jooeplin. but I |
■illicit more decided. The fever increased thru’ j
the night, during winch ho continually raved 1
of Josephs and the harp. In the morn ng he i
was more composed; the struggle was pa t, & ,
he fe I that Ins release was near. Ho disclosed (
to hit friend tlio occurrences of the 2 evenings, '
&no arguments could ahskn Ins belief in them, j
As tlio evening approached lie gradually grew

meed about tho room with s.veel serenity, '
erected with silent tears every object winch i
ic.iiinded him of Josephs, and spoke with a
calm, but firm conviction, nn I lie ninth hour
as that ol hn death. As the decisive moment
approached, he took leave of his friends, and
requested all, save his physician, lo retire.—
They were led alone—the ninth hour struck
—Sollncr’s pale features lighted up with a su
pernatural glow—“Joscpha," he cried, “Jose
phs, greet me once more on my departure
that I may (eel thy presence and overcome
death with thy love!" Immediately tho liurp
slrings resounded with a loud ami triumphant
harmony, ami a faint wavering light, encircled
the dying man. "I come, I come!" he ex
claimed, falling hack in ili<; hud conflict with

strings suddenly burst asunder—and all was
still. Overwhelmed with emotion : the phy
sician left, the house ; ami it was long before
he could erase the deep impression of that
last sail hour from Ins boat, or tni-l his lips lo
speak of it. In after life, however, ho would

“The people of Georgia cannot fail to perceive
that this opposilion has been organized wiih die
intent of neqiting power, influence in tho State,
mid all the nlHcinl stations within the gill of the

which lead lo action the lenders of dm opposition

Do not your hearts yearn for Iho spoils ? How
dare you deny il 1 You cannot surely have the
“hardihood !" Mr Guieu himself would blush for

No ! It CANNOT be possible, dint any bo y

“On die other bund, die union party is con

Tima il is decreed by tho oracle—the opposi

The patriotic Van liurenites are governed only
by principle and care nndting, nothing at all for
the ollices. Out friend Thomas Haynes of the
Standard of Union holds the office of Treasurer
only for the public good ! altogether out of pure
love for die people, to serve whom ho would yield
up his life. As lo the salary, the pitiful S3OOO,
that forms no pari of iho consideration for hold

but dm people will not let him, and be holds il
purely lo gratify them— he is “ governed by
principle” iu doing so! And then there is Col.
Bishop, that [Hire and persecuted man! His only
object in accepting the oflice of Teller ol the
Central Bank, was lo take care of the people's
money, and to watch over and guard it with paren

simple one; —we wonder it did not suggr si itself
to you. It is this: you just coum over and go
with us until we bring the government to Us sen
ses, and got a little something fur our wives ami
children lo eat, and then if thu nul’ifiers go to
cutting any capers, we’ll put the screws to thorn
in superior stylo. Hut friend Justice, wo have
found onr alliance with your folks,Cor some years

’limy bad many a battle, in nil es which the
Dwarf got all tho hard knocks, and Iho Giant got
all tlio booty. “Come on my litllo hero,” said
tho Giant, “wo Imvo glorious sport.” "Not so
glorious, us it might seem lo be,” said the Dwarf.
•Tvo lost a leg, nu arm, and nn eye, besides get
ting many other ugly wounds and bruises, while
you have lost nothing, and got all the honor and
all the profit of our engagements.” Now hasn’t
it been so, friend Justice? We vote for your
folks, ami they support Van Buren folks, and
then the Van Huron folks turn upon us, destroy
commerce, destroy our credit, try to set Iho coun
try people against us, and wind up hy calling us
all a set of rogues and rascals. Now if you like

At a meeting of the Total Abstinence Society,
on the 31st Aug., tho following Resolutions were
unanimously adopted, and ordered to bo published*
Jlctolvcil, 1. That the vice of Inlempeiancc is
extensively prevalent in our country, and it is
so disastrous and insidious in its influences, that
if not arrested in its progress, it must inevitably
pollute the fountains of public virtue, undermine
the stability, and stain the purity of our civil in
stitutions, mar the sweet felicity of the domestic
circle, and blito the fairest hopes of parental fond
ness,
Hesolvcil, 2. That in this point of view, the
Temperance caeso addresses itself to men in eve
ry relation, which they can possibly sustain.—As
patriots it claims their personal influence, —lor it
is identified with the destiny of this groat nation
of their atVeetions, —As members *of community,
it deserves their warmest patronage,—for it is
closely into: woven with all the diversified inter
ests of Society.—As parents, it imploringly ap
peals for support to the strongest sentiments of
their nature, for il labours to restrain the way
wardness of their sons, to snatch from their lips
the cup of ruin and disgrace, and lo warn them
against .that siren song, which throws its he.
witching enchantments around tho board ol festi
vity.
Itesalvetl, 3. That inasmuch as it is the avow
ed purpose of tho Temperance reformation lo
exterminate entirely, the vice of Intemperance
it is the deliberate opinion of this Society, that
j nothing short of the universal adoption of the
principle of total abstinence from all liquors,
which possess tho power of producing intoxica
tion. can ever he adequate to accomplish this ob
ject.
Ifesolvcil, 1, That though this Society is fully '
i convinced of tbs truth of this declaration, yet they I
: utterly deny any intention to set up a standard
| “f morality, higher than that inculcated in the j
I Scriptures ; while they most strenuonsy contend, i
j lhat there is nothing in reason in the Bible, or in '
jibe nature of things, which should cause the
j blends of Temperance, to advocate the use of I
Wine as a he triage, yet they will ever oppose
any attempt to exclude its use iu the Sacrentenl
of the Lord’s Supper, or as a medicine, when re- !
commended by a physician, or when considered
necessary for the system, under the guidance of
an enlightened conscience.

1 Before this can reach you, you will have heard
d tb« glorious news from Rhode Island. Messrs.
„ Tilling hast and Cranston, who overthrew the
u spoilsmen in tho field of their strength, have ar
rived in this city,and received the congratulations
_ bf the whigs, among whom their success diffused
j. so much joy, whilo it carried disappointment and
t dismay to tho trainbands. Rhode Island has
| joined the noble western Phalanx that presented
) so powerful an array against corruption and inir
; rule.
In view of tho Speakership every vote is now
s counted hy both parties; and you may imagine
1 tho chagrin of the Globe clique, when they found
I the two Rhode Island votes transferred from the
r Loco Foco candidate to that of tho Whigs. Such
1 cuucassing, intrigueing, and management,! never
i witnessed or heard of before. Polk is found in
■ every public house, every boarding establishment,
s at the corner of every street. His friend Glumly
) has been dubbed the doorkeeper of Brown’s Ho
j tel, from tho pertinacity with which ho maintains
- his station at tho entrance, ready to pounce upon
I tho members as they go in and out, and to receive
tho reports of his agents and scouts as they re
turn from their several tasks. Messrs. Tallmadgc
and Rives, tho major generals of the Conserva
tives, arrived yesterday. The spoilsmen are cor
lt tainly much more confident since Polk’s friends
. have had interviews with those gentlemen—some
of them, indeed, talk firmly now about there be-
ing no disaffection on the question of Speaker.—
It may turn out that there will bo no split; but it
so, then most, certainly has Mr. Polk given the
pledges I spoke of in a former letter. There has
boon a bargain between him and tho Conserva
tives, which ho could not accede to without a loss
of honor; and for which ho ouglTt to ho branded
as a mean and unprincipled intriguer.
doubt the hold and confident seeming of tho spoils,
men. It is mbst improbable that the Conscrva.
lives can be induced to vole for a man who is
pledged to compose tho committees on the prin
ciples of opposition to them and their objects.—
Polk may pledge himself—but never need they
' expect him to redeem his promises. He never
was a man to he trusted. But even should the
friends of Rives and Tallmadgc ho so very con _
sistent as to vote for this Loco Foco in a body, yet
1 great hopes are entertained that Mr. Bell will de
feat him, if our friends are all on the ground.—
1 Several of those counted friendly to the govern
-1 ment, but who were elected as advocates of a Na
tional Bank, will not vote for Polk now that the
party have thought proper to foico the issue of
Banker anli-Bank; and it is extremely probable
that the Globe clique will ho astounded at the
voles of several others upon whose support they
1 now firmly rely.
Tho organization of tho House,with thcexccp
j tiou of the Speakership, will most probably re
j main the same as during the last Congress. Tho
j Clerkship of tho House will be contested. Mr
| Shock recently Secretary of the Pennsylvania
j Convention, will he run by the anti-Masons. A
few friends of Mr. Clarke, who was some years
1 ago Clerk, wish him to be a candidate; but it is
most probable that .Mr. Franklin, who has filled
! the office for tho last four years, will bo re-elected
1 Th ■ Whigs generally will support him, ihough he
is a friend of the administration. He has proved
himself a competent and faithful officer; and tho
Whigs are in principle and practice opposed to
proscription. But however united and forbearing
the Whigs «»y lie in respect to (ho officers o!
the house, thee will not combine with the Globe
ites with rega l to the election of a public printer.

MONEY MARKET,
The Secretary of the Treasury has issued the
following letter to the Clerk of the House of Re
presentatives;—
Thkasubv Dei'abtmf.st. Aug. 16,1837.
Sir: The near approach of the session of Con
gress makes it proper for me to apprize you, in
order that the information may bo used for fie
benefit and accommodation of the members of the
House of Representatives, that this Department
will he prepared to furnish funds for the payment
in notes of the cily banks or specie, or to give
drafts upon several of the Collectors of the Cus
toms and Receivers of the public money, or the
former doposite hanks, in suitable sums, as may
be most convenient to any of them.
I am, sir, very rcspectiully,
Your obedient servant,
LEYI WOODBURY",
Secretary of the Treasury.
W. S. FiiAsn.UN.Esq.,
Clerk of the H. of Representatives, of U. S.
This is a curious order, and like many other
official documents, not altogether clearly intelli
gible. If the Secretary of tho Treasury means
that ho will furnish the members in payment
notes of the city banks, or specie, or give drafts
upon the Collector of tho customs and Receiver of
, the public money, or the former depositc banks,
as may ho most convenient to any of them—then
there is no doubt hut that all will save him tho
’ trouble of mixing up bis accounts, by simply ta
king specie. That, in tho present times, will in
crease their incomes somewhat hy tho interest
' that they can make of it. But if tho Secretary
, means that he will pay from one or tho other of
these sources, in such sums as may ho most con
. venient to any of them, then there is little hope of
. getting any specie at all. Government is in an
awkward predicament. It docs very well for it to
talk of specie, while all its operatives are compel
„ led to lake rings—hut this is all—it will want a
an Aladdin’s lamp to furnish it. The National
1 Intelligencer says, that the account of the Treasu
rer of the United Stales, ns audited and reported
upon by the First Auditor, for the first quarter of
tho present year, showed tho sum of £45,000,000
a cither in the Bet Banks or elsewhere. Where this
elsewhere is, we are not informed. That will de
volve upon tho President to inform ns. Also,
after paying the expenses of the government, how
much surplus he may have. By a recent state
ment wo have given, we have shown that the
expenditures have, up to August in the present
1 year, exceeded the amount ol revenue 6,505,265
i. dollars. There being a balance over last year of
e five millions, an actual deficiency remains of
1,50i,2G5. The message, however, will soon
now he in our hands, and wc shall then sec how
18 accounts will bo squared. ~
d Specie is arriving in .considerable quantities,
j About 200,000 dollars have arrived during the
last week.
8 The Messrs. Haggerty, at the close of their
d largo cash sale yesterday, gave notice that it was
- tho last cash sale of the season of any magnitude.
Those who have not been in the secret have won
dered how it is, that the Haggortys’ have been
able to get up these largo cash sales when others
e have failed. The circumstance is curious. The
J facts arc these;—Last spring, when the nicr
e chants were falling thickly around like autumnal
leaves, John Haggerty & Sons endorsed the note
1 of many, in order to sustain them, conditionally,
' r that the merchandize which they received as se
n curily should he sold in the autumn for cash. The
I notes now coming to maturity, the goods have
been sold. But for this peculiar circumstance,
" the Messrs, Haggerty would no more have been
'■ able to get up these sales than the House of Aus
is tin, Wilmcrding & Co. have been able. Upon
i, understanding this lad, the jobbers, especially
e those who have been unable to buy for cash,have
become more reconciled.—There will now be
more equality henceforth in those transactions,
c Those who have weathered the storm throughout
t- will ho able to compete with those who come
r . fresh into the market. Short credits must, how
ever, bo established. The ruinous system of
8 long credits must ho abolished,
e There was more life and hustle in Wall street
’- yesterday than for some time p evtous. Owing
_ to tho election in Rhode Island, U. S. Bank has
... gone up a little. Specie is, however, more plen
tiful in tho market—there is not much variation
c in tho prices. Treasury drafts have been quoted
is | at an advance of j further, which is 1 since Tues
t- I day. ’l’here wore no sales however.
