TO MISS M
If the soft feeliDg’s lonely tear
Steal down thy pure cheek’s rosy
That pity calms my bosom's fear,
And tells me, Angel, thou art true.
Then, o’er my humble heart thy eye
Like softest dew upou the flow’r,
Or sunshine from the azure sky,
A balm rests there, of dear love’s pow’r.
Yet fate, cruel as sepulchral pall,
Hath wrench’d one loviug heart in two,
And like a lone one, now my all
In thee, I mourn, never to vine !
Then calmly dry, if ever tear
Was shed for me, that bright, bright eye,
Think of me in eaeh coming year,
As one whose love once breathed—to die.

he didn’t come, but they began to bring
in dinner. Thinks I to myself, here’s
a scrape. But I made up my mind to
tell her if she asked me • to eat, to tell
her with a gentle bow, that I bad no oc
casion to eat. But Brooks, she didn’t
ax me to eft, she asked me if I’d be so
good as to carve that turkey for her, and
she did it with one of them lovely smiles

“ Certainly, madam,’’ says I, and I
walked to the table. There was on one
side of the turkey a great big knife, and
a fork with a trigger on the other side.
“ Well, I fell to work, and in the first
effort I splashed the gravy about two
yards over the whitest table-cloth you
ever seed in your life, Brooks. Well, I
felt the steam begin to gather about my
cheeks and eyes. But, I’m not a man
to back out for trifles, so I makes another
effort, and the darned thing took a flight
and lit in Mrs. Lamar’s lap.

What has done alt this 7 I will tell
you. It has been done by the increas
ing necessities and corruptions of the
Whig and Democratic parties. Each
party has coquetted with, courted and
fawned upon these corrupt and corrupt
ing elements in our midst, until each
has gone down amidst the wreck and
ruin, which is so natural a result from
such corrupt and misjudging conduct.
We are told we ought to stand up
to National men at the North,THfffthat
no party can help ,or has the power to
help us but the great Nation it Democrat
tic party. Who are those National
mcnoutside of this organization of des
pised Know-Nothings and their friends
and sympathisers ? Are they Cass,Dick
inson, Bronsoti ? Why, these are power
less. Webster is dead—Clay isdead—-
Fillmore is in disgrace like Dickinson'
and his crowd. But the great National
Democratic party! Who are,and where
is that party ? Is it in Ohio ? Is it
in New York ? These are as fierce
and unrelenting a set of Freesoilers
and Abolitionists as God’s mercy ever
permitted to live. Is Pierce’s adminis
tration its embodiment? Alas, poor
Yorick! Where now is the power of.'
President Pierce ?

ful storm and flame of wrath, on its
first knocking for favor at the public
door. All who know anything, well
know that the order could not have liv
ed a day without its secret organization.
But now that it has sufficient streng h
to stand alone, I, for one, am favorable
to its veil of secrecy being removed, and
let “ Sam,” young, vigorous, and heal

Who compose this body of people T
They are the honest, intelligent Metho

Protestant people of this country ; it

of free-born American citizens, who-
would be an honor to any Nation,State,

its listmen who for intelligence, patriot
ism, boldness and undying love of coun
try, can challenge a comparison with
even our distinguished Mr. Stephens,
and who would be a credit to any as

Stephens, or any one else.
