When my whole frame was but an ell in height; Qh ! when 1 think of that, my warm tears swell, And therefore iu the memory 1 delight, t sported in tny mother's kind embraces, And climb'd my grandsire’s venerable knee; rrknown were care, and rage, and sorgfiw’s traces; To me the world was blest as bleat Coaid be. Those days were matchless—-but they have per ish’d And life is thorny now, and dim, and flat; Yet rests their memory—deeply—fondly cher ish’d, Godl in thy mercy take not—take not tlutt. THE MIDNIGHT MAIL. By A. F. Uould. . . 'Tis miiloight—all is peace profound ! But lo ! upon the murmuring ground, The lonely, swelling hurrying sound Os distant wheels is heard ! They coine! they pause a moment —when, Their charge resigned, they start, and then Are gone, and all is hushed again As not a fear had stirred Hast thou a parent farawny A beauteous child, to he thy stay lu life’s decline—ror sisters, they VVho shared thine infant glee T K brother on a foreign shore ? Is he whose breast* thy token bore, Or are thy treasures wandering o’er A wide tumultuous sea f J.f aught like these, then thou must feel The rattling of that reckless wheel, That brings the bright or boding seal, On every tiemhfing thread, That strings thy heart, till morn appears To crown thy hopes, or end thy fears—* To light thy smile, or draw thy tears, As line on line is read. 'Feihaps tliy treasure’* in the deep— Thy lover in a dreamless sleep— brother where thou canst not weep. Upon his distant grave! Thy parent’s hoary head no morn May shed a silver lusts y o’er His children grouped—nor death restore Thy son ftoin out the wave? Thy prattler's tongue, perhaps is stilled— Thy sister’s lip is pale and chilled— Thy blooming bride, perchance, has tilled Her corner of the tomb; 'May be, the home where all thy sweet And tender recollections meet, ■Has shewn its flaming winding sheet. In midnight’s awful gloom ! And while alternate o’er my soul Those cold, or burning wheels wilt roll Their light or shade, control. Till morn shall tiring relief;. Father in heaven, what’er may be The cup which thou bast seot for ine. -1 know ’ tis good prepared by thee, Though filled with joy or grief! From the Cincinnati Chronicle. THE HOOSHEROONS. The good citizens of our young sister. India’ tui, ace pretty generally known throughout the ’West by the singul.tr appellative of Hooshers’- —The foliowing rhymes, from a young H>os heroou, conveys a very graphical picture of Hoosher life on the irontiers of Indiana. In - our perambulation, through that State, we have • often partaken the welcome hospitality of a -‘buck ■eye ca' in,” while our gallant steed stood by the -‘'‘saplin” and the sugar trough” for the night. Suppose, In riding through the West* A stranger found a “Hoosher's nest,” In other words, a buck eye nbiu. Just big enough to hold Quee i Mab in) Its situation low hut airy, Was on the borders of a prairie; And fearing he might be benighted, He hailed the house and then alighted, The “Hnnsher" met him at the door, Their sanations soon were o’er ; He took the stranger’s horse aside, And IO a steady S.ipiii.g ied— Then haying stripped t ie saddle off, He fed hint in a sug n trough The stranger stooped to enter in— The entrance closing with a pin— And manifested strong desire To seat him by the log heap fire, Where half a dosen “Hooshereons,” With mush and milk, tin cups and spoons— White heads, bare feet <nd dirty faces, Seemed much inclined to keep their placet; But madam, anxious to display Her rough and undisputed away. Her offspring to the'ladder led, J And cuffed ilje youngsters up to bed. Invited shortly, to partake Os veoison, milk and johnnv cake, The stranger made a hearty meal, And glances round the room would steal, One side saw lined with divtrs garments, The other spread with skins of “varments,” Dried pumpkins overhead were strung,l Where venison hams ia plenty hung; Two t ides placed above the door, ’Three dogs lay stretched upon the floor— lu short, the domicil was rife With specimens of “Hoosher” life The Host, who centred his aflVctious On game, and range, and quarter sections. Discoursed bis weary guest for hours, Till Somnus’ ever potent powers, Os es be* est ’em. No matter how the story ended— The application ( intended, \ Is from the famous Scottish poet, Who seemed to feel as well at known it, That “boudly chiels and clever biggies, Are bted in sic a way as this is.” fl'ki “ iXatchtWe fen joyed the j h’.gli gnification, yetlerday, of being one of a numerous party of bulb sexes, who paid a visit to this noble and finished spe cimen of American Naval Architecture. The company were received on hoard, by Capt, Zankinger and his officers, with (hose kind attentions and elegant courtesies, which have coiitriuuted to ren der their ship (in itsell a source of uncom non attraction) so-great a favorite with our community, and placed them so high in the esteem and even the affectiots ol a large portion of our fellow„citiz«ns.— The whole ship was thrown open for inspection; and while an air of elegance and comfort pervaded its more finished parts, its general neatness and perfect cleanliness were such, as might well have inspiied the euvy of the most ctireful and fastidious house-wife. Refreshments ol various kinds were bountifully served; and music and dancing contributed large ly to the gaiety and enjoyment of the oc casion. It afforded us much pleasure to observe individuals of bo’h parties ming ling, with perfect harmony, in the fes tive scene, and sharing the equal hospi tality of their hosts. At 12 o’clock, meridian, Commodore Elliott arrived on hoard to take leave of the officers and crew (the Natchez having received sailing orders,) and was received with a Federal Salute, which was answered by the U. S. schooner E%* perimenty and the Revenue Cutter G?q(- tatin, anchored in the vicin : ,iv, broad penant of the Commodore was then transferred f-; jm the NaLhex to the ?;,d * shortly afier he bude ti, e ~(fl cers an d crew of the .oilier, on his departure from which, the yards were manned by the sailors, who gave thiee hearty cheers as a pariingioken of respect to their gallant commander. We regret to say that our visit to the Natchez is likely io prove a farewell one, as she will drop down to the Roads this morning, and lo morrow se ; sail tor Nor folk. Gallant ship! we hid you God speed wherever you move on the waters es the mighty deep—may you ever be blessed with auspicious gales, and long continue to bear aloft, in piide and in triumph,the Star Spangled of your united country. Charleston Courier ,27 inst. Believing-thnt tlto isolated object ol the approbating State Couveution was well uudet stood bv all, we have I'orebi.rne to jiive our speculations upon iu The ob ject to which its deliberations are confin ed ; under a pi escribed oath of each mem her; is, a reduction of the present repre sentatives m ilie legislature. We do nor wish to see the influence us this District diminished; for, if property and the pay meat of taxes are to be among ihe basses ol repi'esentalton,. the three counties; af least Chatham, Bryan and Liberty, will be entitled to as strong a delegation, ms a nv other three in the State. Bu , with the late accession Os territory, every one most admit, that the member's, that would upon the present plan be deputed, would swell the Legislature to a bulk entirely to<» unwieldy for the dispatch of business, .as well as too expensive for that economy, which should ever he obsei ved it) the ex peoditure ol the public money. It would be much better—we think—to expend the money heretofore paid lonadcoa&u merefruges legislators, in Works of inter' nal Improvement, than thus to waste i 1 upon supernumerary deputies. We wish, however, that ihe powers of the C onyentiou had been left—as they always politically ought t<> be—unlimited as lu all objects and purposes of reforma tion. Oar present Constitution bas se veral delects which require the amelior ating hand of a Convention. Among the principal, are the qualified-ion as to property,to be elected u Senator ,«r Rep resentative, and the ommpotetv authority given to the Superior Courts. There should be a Court of Errors and appeals to revise and correct the sectional judi cial opinions and discrepancies, which prevail in the different Districts upon tin most interesting artd important principles, ag they relate to life, liberty and proper ty. Another stigma upon republican in. stituions ought robe constitutionally and forever annihilated, and that Is imprison meni for debt. It is a paradox, associa ted as it is, among the principles of self government, and the respect due to (In dignity of a citizen. To imprison hint on a criminal accusation, is all right e oough—but, to place debt and a crime upon the same footing, as to the power of imprisonment appears to our humble capacities, to destroy all the analogies Sf proprieties of republican goverumuu .

Formerly, how ever, it was said that they suited only for an island —they are suited to every coun try where the citizeos aio iotell gent and wish to be free.” From the Fayetteville Observer, Marche 19. We are enabled to present our readers to-day with about two-thirds of Mr. Cal 'ho tin’s Speech in the Senile on the En forcing Bill. We shall give the remain der iu our next. We have read this speech with some atten ion, and although it may appear presumptuous iu us, to offer any return ks on a speech coming from a man of such acknowledged talents, except in blind ad miration and praise of its merits ; yet we have no hesitation in saying, that in our opinion, much of his argument is extreme ly lame and porile. This, however, is but an illustration to what shifts men of acknowledged talents will resort, when all solid argument fails them, lo support a favorite doctrine, to which they have once become pledged. It appears to us that Mr. C’s arguments are not so much to show what the provisions of the Federal Constitution are, as what in his opinion they ought to be j and although he has not said so iu so many words, yet we infer from his reasoning that were it left to him to frame a Constitution of Government for a number of independ ens Sta'es, one of its provisions would'be, that the minority should rule the majori ty : although lie admits in the course of his argument, that such a provision or check, agaiust ihe encroachments of povv e« on the part of ihe majority, would in practice, be unavailing ; nur should.it be thought strange, that Mr. Calhoun should have advanced this and ctrine, f».r it is ad. vanciug n<» more in theory than South Carolina by her Ordinance, has adopted in practice and we have no dnubt-this is tho general do tiine held by the Nulli fiers of South-Carolinn, although they paid but little respect to the wi'l of the minority in their own State, in requiring of ihein the test oath—a more arbitrary exercise of,power than which, on iliepart of the majority, is not to bu found in history. Mr. Calhoun has endeavored to illus trate his ideas of a government, secur ing the rights of the minority, by refer ing to ancient govemmen s, aud particu larly 'he States of Greece—but here we iliink he has entirely failed. The States of Greece, lie says, ‘were united in one common but loose baud;’ this is true, for ;he Stales of Greece never were united by any thing more than a league, which each State, considering itself perfectly sovereign and independent, broke when ever interest or inclination prompted lipi* to do so ; but the absurdity and inefficien cy of such a league is demonstrated by the fact, that when they were united and held together by a sense of common dan ger, they were able to repel the gigantic power of Persia, as the battles of Mara thon, Platea and Salamis are illustrious examples: but the States of Gregjco-iwere as often engaged in wars among them selves, as they were united com . tnon enemy—and lo mis may attributed their final downfall. Had they beorvuni ted under one efficient government, they might have preserved their independence and liberty ; but iu consequence of their internal dissention and wars, they ex hausted their own strength, and weie conquered by the Romans by piece-meals, until they a' lan became a Roman pro vince Such is the kind of league or govern 9 meni to which ihe South-Carolina doc fine would reduce be Federal Govern merit j oach State being entirely sovereign and independent, could secede at pleasuie from '.lie Union, allowing no authority in tho General Government to hold them together. Thus we should in all proba bility, eventually be divided into as many distinct governments as there are States ; and if wars did not spring np among the several States, as was the case in an cient Greece, we should fall by piece meal, an easy prey to some foieigrt' des pot.

In endeavouring to establish their superior .pretensions, some sevre alteration ensued, whereupon a challenge passed from Tom, presenting at (he same time two pistols, offering to Peter his choice, which the latter insultingly iefused. He was, how ever,suddenly made sensible of this indig nity to a "man of honor?' bv the contents of Tom's pistol, which passed sufficiently near the lower part of his chid to draw blood,dp give him a slight sensation of the laws of honor.
