WESTERN VIEWS OF THE OREGON

daily one of dpeppr ,aiwi. .deeper interest.

It seems now obvious that p considerable

hatched up for sorpc f these delinquents, is

upon the paVy. They are tie.
lermined oorto be placed in a |>osition to be

This is Very fine; and will be very satis-
to the green ones of toondoni. These
whig* in corfgress will now sustain a most
important measure ( involving, in their esti
rnation, the question o( peace or war; not
because it is best for the, country, but
because it is best for their patty. Tney are
iieady to sacrifice principle and the countrv,
jf they can . thereby overreach the ‘present
‘administration. t
Suppose this is true, Why do these whigs
now fiol it their policy to support this mea
sure ? Simply because.it they do not do
so, they will be held to an Account before
the peple, which they cannot safely render.
They know th.it the sentiment of the country
demands the measure, and they flare not
“refuse it. On the other hand, their party
allegiance'reijtiires them to give a party
reason for what they cannot avoid. Whigs
will be sah'Sfied, if , they can only let it ap
pear i Hat motive was to embarrass
iheir political opponents; so gootl an end
‘will justify*tlie most unholy means.
We do not attribute such motives to whig
senators. The irifnutation comes from their
‘own party. When the discussion comes

The following sound and beautifully il

by one of England’s most eloquent parlia

“I maintain,” said the speaker, in 1829,
“without fear ( of contradiction, that the very
essence of commercial jpnri manufacturing
industry, is freedom legislative inter

to assist its cause by legislative enactments

DEMOCRATIC ACTION. . ,
We cannot too eften incalculate the im
portance of union and harmony in our ranks.
Upon the preservation of such a spirit, every
political blessing which the best politi
cal, principles are capable of conferring up
on the country is at last dependent. No
greater indiscretion can be, committed by a
great party in power, than to allow differences
of opinion, which do not touch the general
principles which phould bintj together, to
be t^occasion ol its disruption. Th’ele is
rarely, at any time, a single question of ex
pediency of such magnitude, and enduring
importance, thaf the concord of a party need
bje disturbed permanently by vapianl views
upon such a measure. If a solitary measure
which happens to be uppermost in the public
thought’, shall be efficacious enough to de
stroy, by the powei acquired to fix
forbears a general polipy, then it may
that the animated struggles renewed every
four years are worthless and uncompensat
ed.
Why fias qome to be considered, that
tbe chance for the, return t o! a majority to
power, is as good as that jpf the majority to
preserve its ascendency unimpaired }, Plain
ly tor these reasons—that Umly,
weak, is a child of necessity, always achiev
ing wonders; and that an over-cntffldence,
with a diminished sympathy among the them
bets of a great and overflowing majority, is
very apt to terminate in misforinne. If ma
joriUes were animated, when in the fruition
of'power, by that kindly spirit of toleration,
that *eil wjpclj, when the battle raged, lused
the mass, and rendered it invincible, the po
litical revolutions, which i*t is the province of
history so often to record, worild he unfre
quent. • ~ ‘ , ,
We think tlif) if the hi?tpry of the past es
tablishes any fact ip to the_ iuture
prospects of the deniocranc party,,jt
whenever that party shalL be united, its ,tri
umph is certain; and thj;t, when aleiiiated
and divided, defeat will consequence,
sh this view, in which all wjll probably con
cur, the obligation to “bear and forbear’’ be
comes imperative in proportion to jhe .estr
male we set upon our general principles. , Ts
‘lliese'be of a consequence so little, tnat.thjßy
are to be ’put Tq hazard by internal diuereq
ces Os opinion uipon questions new and colla
teral, then no durable party basis is left.—
Every integral measure', however temporary
iu its character, must then become the touch
stone of party fidelity; and, acting without
combination lor the establishment of a gen
eral system, nothing in particular can be ac*
complished.— Union.

THE MOTHER £T PRAYER.
She enters her cnetnber. All is quiet and
retired. There is no eye to pitness her deep
emotions, but that of God; ne ear to hear her
earnest pleadings, but tliatof Hjp Almighty.
A sweet and sacred solemnity peyypdes her
■oul. She feels that she is about to §emmune
with a Being who Itolds her destiny jn his
hands but who, notwithstanding his power
and might, encouraged her to come, and will
co.ideseud and even delight to listen to hpr
prayer. She bows her knee before him, and
lifts her imporing eyes to heaven. Ob, hal
lowed moment! Oh, interesting sight !
Listen to tbe language of her heart. For
what does she plead ? it is for her dear chil
dren. What docs she ask for them? Not
the riches of earth; nor the plaudits of sur-,
rounding aumifejtf, nor the external graceful-
beauty of jrquth. These are in her
of little value. Instead of these,
she asks for herijjar miep‘sie protecting care
of God. With what anxious solicitude is each
oge remembered before him, from the absent
sop prifthp bqisterous ocean, to the.unconcious
babe of her bosom. She asks that from the
,lisptugs of infancy, the; tribute of
tbeir hearts may ascend to the Creator. With
what increased earnestness does site plead,
as the recollection of ,t)ie many snares and
temptations which thejn imtst^encounter,
crosses her anxious mind*. It is she
feels her own weakness, and her entire de
pendence upon God. It is then she sees lief
need of Divine assistance and support, and
the vast importance of maternal prayer. It
is th£n ehq (yrvently exclaims, ‘Of myself I
can do nothing. who Jioldest the
hearts of my children hand, I bles3thee
for this resource.’ I know tyiat the mother’s
prayer of faith will avajl, much, When the
season of prayer leaves her cham
ber with a spirit refreshed arid invigorated;
with a mind untroubled. She has left all in
the hands of God. The serenity of her soul
is visible in her countenance. It sweetens
every duty, aud influences all her

Tough Stories. —A New Englander,
riding in a ‘railroad car, off southwest, some
where, seeme'dparticularly disposed to as
tonish the other passengers with tough sto
‘ries about Yankee'qum. At last he men
tioned that one'6f Vis neighbors owned an
immense dairy, and madie a million pounds
of butter and a million pounds of cheese
yearly. The story produced aonte sensa
tion and the Yairitee perceiving that his ve
racity was in danger of being questioned,
appealed toa friend as fallows:—“True,isn’t

ANECDOTE.
Wheri N'dah planted the first vine, and re
tired, Satan approached it aqid said—“l will
nurture you, chaming plant!” He (Juickly
fetched three animals ; a sheep, a lion, and a
hog, and killed them, one after the other,
near the vine. The virtue of the blood of
these animals penetrated it, and is still mani
fest io its growth* When a man drinks one
goblet of wine, he is then agreeable, gentle,
and friendly ; and is the nature of the lamb.
Wheii he dHhksJlbd; he is a lion, and ssye,
il Who iS like me ?” lib tHefi talks of stupen
dous ihings. When he drinks rA'd're', his
senses forsake him. and al length he wallows
in the mire, steed ii be deed that he then
res edibles a hog.
A Match Fort “HAitfES.”—A good dHec
dote is told in the last true American of a
man named Bentley, a most Confirmed
drunkard who Would tiever drink with a
friend, or in public, and always bitterly de*
tiied when caught a little too steep, ever
tasting liquor ! One day some bad witnesses
concealed themselves in his room, and when
the liquor was running down his throat, seiz
ed hiifl With an airof triumph: “Ah Bentley
have We caught you rit la6t—you heter drink,

Beritley Wfeuld naVe acknowledged the iiorn.
Not he !—with the most grave and inexpres -
6lble face he p,alnf|y, and in a'dignified man
ner, ’ said -—“GiiittUHien my naxAt is riot Beril ‘.

CAUDLE AGAIN.
Punch’s Almanac for 1846, which’ forms
a number of his inimitable periodical, con
tains some more of the Adventures in life of
the widowed caudle. He marries Miss
Pretlyrifau, as poor did Mrs. C. always pro*

before tho h'oWe'yinoort is over, begins to show
“No. 2,” tferff she ife /6 be Candied, rind riik

THE DYING CHAMBER.
Wbp t&at'has watched beside the sick—
the dying.cqtucb of a beloved being—does
not remember .the dreary desolate blank
that ,the moment of dissolution? —
While life resume hope will linger. From
the ark of its auctions the heart still sends
forth the dove iff !f, the wide waste of affec
tion, fondly dreaqpjfig of her return with the
olive branch of hope and joy. The mind,
too, fully occupied , with the duties of the
sick chamber, lias scarcely leisure to dwell
upon aught bnide To.pnpooth the pillow
—to watch o’er the unquiet slumber—to
pweeten the bitter draught with affection’s
hand—to read the languid eyp—and antici
pate the broken wish— i See anfl a thousand
otjier kindly offices fill up the weary hours,
and twine the loved one in its
jcjqsfyr round the heart. But w’hen llje last
scene free closed on the being tv*e hays so
loved and tended—when the ward hear; pan
no longer our care, nor the beaming
eye smile, at
ry frame ana.crushed 6p:rit sink togt.’her in
utter helpless liveliness. Beyond thar si
lent chamber the, ywtlg world appears one
trackless waste, es,v{P gaze on the stiVl
cold features ofi.jjie departed, we long for
the wings of the dove to‘‘flee away and be
at rest!”
“.Long and Short.”—These , Wje the
conferred in the House of Repre*
septajtiyea in Congress, upon Mes-jrs VVent
worth afid Douglass ofllbnois. The former
is nearly seven feet high; the,latter but li.t,ile■
over five. They are frequently seen in front
ol the Clerk’s desk in conversation or discus
sion, and the phrase of .the House, on . occa
sions, is, “now \ve liave thq, long apd short of
it,” which, we suppose, may be accounted a
very tolerable sort of political witticism.—
Charleston Mercury .
Great Envjt.— ln Scotland it is customa
ry when a death occurs iu a family, to send
ail the neighbors an invitation to attend the fu
neral. ‘•A guid auM wife” was passed by on
one of these dispensations, and with her
heart full of indignant grief, she watched the
iuueral gathering ground a neighbor’s dour.
It wag finally too for her, and she ex
claimed ia a lone-ol forced .resignation :
“Aweel! aweel! we’li ba’e a corpsp.o’ our
ain iu our house some da]?!— See then wba’ll
be invited !”
Simile Matrimonial.— The fplfpwipg
picture of matrimonial felicity is from the
“King’s own.” It is one of the best coui;
parisons we have seen; ingemus and
as those who have studied scenes of domes
tic life in families, where the principal par
ties were •* paired, not matched,” can testi
fy.; ,
“Mr. Mrs. Rainscourt were joined,
but Wjsre one. Like many others
in Vhis-worla „of.jrrqr, the marriage might
be typified,by a i \tj , a,f one half has
been filled with oil, anq
ter, having a.Cjork in its nyoqtji, wlpch con
fines them, aou Jforcje them to remain in con
tact, although they refused to unite.”
