LAST DAY OF EVE.
It approached the evening twilight Tho
motor of mankind wo* placed by her dasennd-
anta in front of her tent, reclining on n rudo
couch. The western wind funnpd her pnle cheek
and played amidst her grey locks. Near her sat
her husband.' Eve turned her eyo upon him with
a look of sadness, yol of deep affection. and aa
ahe saw Ida wrinkled brow, heat form, and head
of snowy white nets, seemed to call to uiind otlier
days.
Inwardly ahe repronched herself. 14 Ah, not
thue was it I aaw him, when first given to him hv
our God. Where has vanished that manly Conn?
where is the elastic step ? where the eye that
beamed with brightness f whore now the rich and
mellow voice T Alas 1 how changed! And it
wna l, who tempted, who destroyed hifn—l die
wife—the cherished companion—I bade him ent.
and now whnl is be, who hut lor me had kuown
neither pain, nor sorrow, nor age.
“And wlwt remain* of her on whoso beauty ho
then gazed with utwatintad delight? A trembling,
wrjnkled form just sinking into the grave.
“Where is now that pnradiso with its rich fruits
—that bahuy air which brought on every breath
a tribute to each happy sense—those rays which
warmed bin never scorched! And sadder, sadder
still, where now is that blissful intercourse with
Him, who made na rich in the happiness of liv
ing? ilia voice is no longer in our ears—driven
from bliss—from scenes so lovely—the earth
cursed—sin, sorrow, aud death, the inheritance of
our children." m
Our mother was overtone by die rush of re
collections. Her oyes, long dry. found new
fountains, and her aged form shook with deep
emotion.
It tuny be that Adam had hern indulging in
tnusings not unlike to these, for he was startled
as if from a reverie by the emotions of his wife.
The old man placed himself beside her. She
laid her head on the bosom which had aooften
soothed its throbbings.
•*Whut moves thee. Eve?"
“Oh. my husband, how const thou show kind-
rie*s to her who has done all this? Thou wast
yonng mul knew only happiness, and alt aronud
was formed rodelight'our every sense; and I, who
should have strengthened thy virtue, fell, arid

Hi of yuin. And after n few years of toil
and anxiety, we are about to lay these worn out
frames iu the dust.
“Bnt for sin we bad lived in perpetual youth,
an J feared no change. The threatened death has
worked slowly bnt surely,-and now with us his
work is nearly done.
“The first to sin. it was meet that I should first
return to dust. Hod life guilt aud the curae been
only mine, I might endure it. But I see thee
now, and I compare thee with what thou wist as
it seems to me but yesterday.
“A few days will lay thee low. Let our chil
dren place us side by side in the cold earth. I
know not why it is,yet itseenisto me there will

if tore were- something of consciousness in the

“Little ofcomfort as is now left in life, yet I
eannot endure the thought that 1 shall Utterly

‘Adam,thou hast often given me word* of con
solation. Is there aught cun cheer me, now 1 am
to bid time farewell?
“Thou seest yonder aun—than wilt again see
him rise and set, he is bidding we a last adieu.
Sense shall soon cease forever, and no light shall
again enter these eyes."
The old man wiped the tears which fell on the
wrinkled brOw of bis partner. A sudden light
was on his con tile Banco as if a new lamp had
been lit no in his soul. Eve saw it, and it bro't
to her a gleam ufhope; ahe gazed on his face as if
death U«w lent new powers to her faded virion.
“First of women," said Adam, “claim no pre
eminence in guilt—together we sinned—together

SATURDAY MORNING. NOVKMBlilt 7, 1840.
By tho steamer Beaufort District, Captain
Boon, wo last evening received the Charleston
Mercury of yesterday morning, and a Baltimore
and New-York paper of the 3d Inst. We have
extracted late foreign news received by an arrival
at Charleston, from the Mercury,
THE ATROCIOUS MANAGEMENT (OR
MISMANAGEMENT) OF THE POST
OFFICE DEPARTMENT.
Now that the elections are nearly over, it U
time tiie peoplo should begin the reform move
ment, by calling to the bar of public opinion, the
brace of worthies who have had the control of the
mail department.
One thing is certain, that there has been mote
than mere tniimanogemnut in this business, and
we might as well say it at once, thrce-fonrtiia.of
our party arc firmly persuaded, that there has
been a deep laid plot between Amos Kendall,
and John M. Niles, not to forward the mail, but
to stay tho mails carrying disastrous news to the
party, on tho eve of great elections. This may
seeiu to the unsuspicious, as an impracticable
piece of roguery, because, in stopping whig pa
per*, they would also stop their own, but it is not
Thoy do actually contrive it, by some pro
cess or other, to throw out our papers, and receive
their own. \Ve appeal to all those who take
Baltimore and Richmond papers, whether they
have not received three-fourths of them
through Augusta, and that, days and weeks after
they were due. Nay, so common and palpable
tins this matter become, that we have beard it pre
dicted in the streets, before the mail hour, os
thus, •• There will be no mail north of Charles
ton to day." Why? Because there is disastrous
news from Morylaud, and so on. We have
heard this doue more than once. Now, instead
of sending on an agent as Charleston has done to
petition such a thing os John M. Niles—let the
people in their primtny assemblies demand an in
vestigation into tiie management of the distribu
ting offices between Charleston and Weldon, and
between Weldon and Baltimore.

Whilst thinking of the fearful change which
betokened to my heart that Ua partner wus about
to be taken away, a heavenly light beamed on my
thoughts, and taught me to tmdcistand the visions
which have so often visited me ou my conch.
41 We shall uol die—there is a costly ransom
provided—we mint sleep under tho cold earth,
hut we will rise ugpin in the freshness of that
youth which we first enjoyed; and purified frotn
a'l sin, we shall walk iu our Eden seven times
morn beautiful than when we first roved amidst
its fruit and llowers. And there will be the
thousands who, inheriting our evil natures, will
have found a powerful Physician, And there
will bo that mighty l'hysician whose presence
shall wake ten thousand harps to melody.
* 4 This earth, too, so long, so grievously cursed
for our sin, wilt come forth more than purified
from every stain, and in more than the beauty of
its pristine youth.
*• Thon will go a little before me to tiie grave
but we shall rise together with tiie glad shout of
gratified jubilation; and with ua millions on mil
lions of our posterity ransomed from the curse."
Adam paused, Ins eye fell on the face of his
wifii—a smile assumed to play iu tiie brightness
of hope an her pnle lip, but the heart hud ceased
to beat, and Unit sleep had fallen on her which the
trump of tiie arabangcl only shall disturb.
Mr. BtuHAM.-Thi* celebrated vocalist made
his first uppearauco in New-York on Wednes

performances: .
Oratorio.—As we predicted, the Tabernacle?

Braham sing some of die divine compositions of
Handel. There were, as nearly a»cnuid lie com*

qiieutly vrtjs-giren widrnmclr softness,
Tiie Confessions of Harry Lorrtqucr, with numer
ous illustrations, by Pktx.
Capt. Lorrequer is a regular soldier of fortune
(or rather of misfortune) and he meets with in-
numernblfl hair-breadth escapes by flood and
field, all of which are very graphically described
in these confessions. The Captain and his mess-
mates of the criny are as merry a set of practical
jokers as tho greatest lover of fun could desire,
and some of the incidents are grotesque in the ex
treme. The scene, for instance, upon the Col-
l*ge green, where Dr. Finucane one dark and
stormy night, undertakes to navigate to his quar
ters after having bagged about two bottles. Dn'
ring one of his balancing operations lie hears
some hard breathing very near him,and the Doc-
tor supposing, in tiie mellowness of his heart,that
some poor luckless wight of the mess was worse
off than himself, undertakes to render him luuis-
taueer*'Grabbing about in the'dark, be at length
gets hold ofwhat he supposes a tuft of hair, and
by dint of hard labour and many straggles, he
finally bean him to the guardhouse. On the way
the Doctor discover* every now and then this
aforesaid head has a wonderful affinity for tiie
ground, bobbing np and down and slinging the
Doctor hither and thither. Once or twice also,
he gets his toes mashed by the tread of a foot
whieh he had some shrewd suspicion* might be
the celebrated cloven member of his Satanic Ma-
jesty.
It wqa with no little curiosity that the Doctor
awaited the light* at the guardhouse door, that he
might ascertain which of tiie mesa it was so beast
ly drunk,he could not keep his head a foot from
the ground without his assistance. When lo,
and behold, the lights came and it was the old
blind mare.
The ilhistrationa are after tiie fashion of Pick,
wick and in the highest style of English grates,
que. They are rather too broad for our tastei
but finely drawn and executed.

Van Buren majority, 2,529
Tho Philadelphia Ledger, of Monday, says that
Harrison’s majority in 42 counties is 42J0, and
the 13 counties yet to be heard from gave a Van
Buren majority of 2800 at the Congressional
election.
The Washington Globs, of Afonday last,'gives
returns from 41 counties, many of them, it says,
“from federal papers," which show a Van Bureu
majority of 1214; and adds, that 15 counties re-
main tp bo heard from, winch nt tiie Congression
al election gave a Van Buren majority of 720
votes.
The Charleston Courier of yesterday morning,
says, 44 our readers will observe, there are many
discrepancies in the returns, indicative of haste
and carelessness in'getting them up, and nt they
were sent forth, doubtless, to effect the elections
actually in progress in other States, tii*y are per
haps to be received with some grains of allow,

Gen. Harrison has carried Pennsylvania."
may be quoted 857 8. The speculators aud job-

London, Oct. 6.
Our Paris correspondent writes that M.Thiers
has already proposed and insisted, in tho Coun
cil, on a declaration of war, on sending troops to
tiie Rhine, thd also to Alexandria, in despite of
tiie blockade, On these questions M.Thiers was
in the minority. On Monday or Tuesday simitar
proposals wiflno doubt be made, accompanied by
offers of resignation. So that, whatever bo the
result, tiie moment is critical.
We stated yesterday that decisive war men-
■ures could liol be tnkeu by the French Cabinet,
without ail immediate split therein, nnd the with
drawal of three or four A1 inisters. We have but
mpevusutivcMttetetoCtive CuaaUtutiauel aud
the Journal ties Debuts of Sunday to be con-
inced of tiie truth of this.
The result of tiie trial of Louis Nnpolean was
that the Prince and his principal companion* iu
the insane enterprise were fouud guilty. The
following are !he sentences passed upon them:
Prince Louis Napoleon perpetual imprison
ment in a fortress.
Count Montholon, 20 years detention; Voisin,
10 ditto; Mesonan, 15 ditto; Panutiu, 20 ditto ;
Bouflet Alontauban, 5 ditto; Lombard, 20 ditto s
Forrestier, 10 ditto.
Second Rank.—Batnille, 5 years detention;
Aladenize, transportation for ditto; Laborde, 2
years detention; Desjardine, acquitted; Galvoni,
ditto; De Lambert,ditto; Bure,ditto.
Our express from Paris of Monday brings omi-
..jus tidings. M. Thiers and his colleagues went
to 8t. Cloud with the formal inteutinn of making
the offer of resigning on that day , if certain terms
were not ceded to them by the King. His Afajes-
ty,surprised by the unanimity ofn cabinet which
on tiie previous day was so divided as to leave
Al. Thiers in a decided minority, may be said ra
ther not to have resisted than have yielded so
that Ministers did not even go the length of the
menace which they iutendetl. The Ring line
thus gained time. It will be asked how the
French Cabinet so divided ou Saturday became
of the sauefopiitioii on Sunday, and unauimou*
*3 to tiie jMoeasityor strong and warlike resolves?
The answer is easy*. On Saturday the Freuch
still believed, what they believed all .along, that
the Turks, aided by the British marine, could not
make onydecisive impression on the coast or pn-
C ‘ ion of Syria. They thought Mehcmetnnd
irn impregnable and deemed that the winter
at least would tvear away without tiie redbetion
or danger of the Pacha,
The full despatches from Bcyront, however,
which renchod Paris on Saturday night, opened
the eyes of the French AIinisters. They sow at
once that Ibrahim was completely beaten, and
would, it hostilities continued,be driven from all
Syria, without the aid of a single Russian gun.—
They trembled not merely far Beyrout and the
Lebanon, butfor Acre and Alexandria itself; and
the consequence has been the resolve to interfere;
if Eugland cannot be got to hold her hand. The
favorite plan seems to be that of sending troops
to Alexandria. The Presse says, that Min
isters demand nothing except in the event of
Acre being attacked. Nothing, however, seems
to be positively decided. AU tiie Cabinet now
consent to tiie convocation of the Chambers,
though the views and desired accompaniments to
such a measure are different; and this constitute*
the difference of opinion alluded to in the Con-
stitutionnel.
Orders art given at Messina for provisions for
the French fleet, which is to be stationed there
during the winter.
The loneofliie French journals, of Monday,is
jxceedingly warlike. The tempest without had
found an echo in tiie Cabinet, half the members
of which were for war, and the other half for
ieace. The King headed the peace party,which,
uclnding bis Majesty, constituted a majority by
a single vote. But Louis Phillipe being some
thing more tfyin an individual in tha National
Councils,the preponderance was greatly in favor
of the peace side ofthe balance. AL Theirs had
quite gone over to the left or Odillon Barrot par
ty, trusting tii mob influence to secure tiie tri
umph of his policy. M. Guizot,on the contrary t
declared for the King’s side, and aifrised tne
convocation ofihe Chambers, and tho appoint
ment of a new'Hinistry. The contest id France
is furious: but every thing depeudsnn the Cham
bers. It is a pity that the removal of M.Theirs
from office was not resolved upon hefore the
country was in such a ferment as to take the
question of peace or war out of tiie hands of
statesmen, tu he decided by popular clamor or
uccidetiL
cu'aled to assail the conduct of tiie gentlemen
implicated, is the affidavit of tho wretch Steven
son that.he hernia man whom Butler swear* to
be 44 thoroughly unprincipled," say, that they had
been associated witii him in a disgraceful fraud
on our Ballot Boxes! And yet Air. Butler bus
dared to call upon tiie people ofthe U. Stales, to
believe in charges founded on the affidavit of
what a self-couvictod knave alleges he heard a
44 thoroughly unprincipled’’ nnd '• callous” rogue
say, in regurd to the conductor honest, honorable
and high tuitided gentlemen!
This is the naked aspect of this vile conspiracy,
stripped of all tiie coloring attempted tube thrown
around it by the cunning arts of an unscrupulous
hypocrite.; nnd if iu the eye of the law and of
every well regulated mind, tha receiver of stolen
goods, knowing them to bn such, is a* hud us tho
thief, is not Air. Butler in his own estimate, and
the estimute of auy honest and honorable man,
os thoroughly guilty and ns “thoroughly un
principled, us either Steveuson or Gleutworth,
iu the whole of this afi'air ? Has he not brought
forward fiilse and slanderous charges against tho
character and standing of holiest mid honorable
men, aud endeavored to cover them and their
funiilies witii infamy, on tho testimony of a man
whom his own affidavit shows to bo u miserable
scoundrel—the vilest of the vile—and whose testi-
iuouv after nil, is the mere hearsay of one whom
Air.'Butler swears to be “thoroughly unprinci
pled ?" Aud who is Air. Butler that As may do
this and escape unpunished? Is itis profession
ofsuperiorpiety to be his shield? Are this com
munity lo be told, thul the Chuith ol God sanc
tions and encourages such baseness ? Shall this
community proclaim to tiie people ofthe United
States, that he who merely makes a profession of
Rejigion and wears his piety as other men do
their bats—to be pul ou and off as best suits their
convenience—may, with impunity, he guilty of
crimes and offences which would drive otlier
men from society or consign them to a dungeon,
and escape unpunished cither fay our Courts of
Law, or public opinion ? We hope not—most
sincerely do we hope nnd trust, that the sincoro
Christians of the city will cause no such conclu
sions to he drawn from their actions; for surely
thus to net, is to bring our Holy religion into
disrepute and to warrant tiie scoffing* that are but
tooJreqiipntJyhurled at it. . . . * ■ -
We say it more in sorrow than in anger; but
we do in all sincerity any, that if Afr. Bmlor ia to
go unpunished and unrebuked by hia Church,
the character of his religious associates cannot
but suffer in the minds of nil reflecting men i mid
we say too, that if this great commu nity, cun, or
do countenance this arch hypocrite hi future, we
shpuld close nur criminal Courts, and declare uli
crimes against morality nnd tin* well being of
society, not only admissible, but praiseworthy.
The length to which we have already extended
these remarks, forbids our referring to some oth
er views of this infamous conspiracy, the effects
of which are to be chiefly experienced by those
who devised it. We uro constantly asked—what
will be its effect in tho country? to which we have
repeatedly answered—what would bo tiie effect
upon our election in this city, if we were appris
ed nnd believed, that cwry Whig in Buffalo, Alba
ny. Cincinnati, or any other largo town in the
United States, had been guilty of frauds upon the
ballot boxes inJJ638? Would ft, or would it
not influence a single vote in this city upon the
crent and momentous question of Harrison and
Reform, or “Van Buren and the Sub Treasury!"
We think not. We know not. And so in the
S resent case. If Mr. B. F. Butler and his friend
tevenson, had succeeded in creating a belief a-
broad that every Whig in New York was a scoun
drel, our friends would not havo been influen
ced by this opinion of us, to oppose the election
ol General Harrisqn! They do not pretend to
identify him with this pretended fraud; and al
though they bid high to implicate Governor Sew
ard, it isnoteven intimated that they havecast the
slightest suspicion upon his patriotism or integ
rity.
As regards the consequences in this city, they
are easily foretold. Messrs. Butler, Stevenson
nnd Edmonds, will horeafter he estimated as they
deserve. No intelligent man of either party, has
lost one iota of his regard for Messrs. GnnntU,
Draper, Boxeen, Wetmorc and Blatchford; the char-
nrter of tho Whig party ns the guardians of the
laws and the advocates ofthe purity of elections,
is untmpeflchnd and unimpeaclible; nnd the mor
al tense of tiiis great community, always conser
vative, &Jnlwnys ready to protect the innocent nnd
punish the guilty, will unite in giving to the Whig
ticket n strength and a triumph, which but for
this basely conceived, and miserably executed
conspiracy, would never have been realized.

"PAYING DEAR FOR THE WHISTLE."
When Air. Adams wav ousted front the Presi
dency of thoso United States, his successor An
drew Jackson, gave u« promise* In plenty of
4 retrenchment and reform.’ How well he kept
these promises, is matter of history. After eighl
years he gave place to Martin Von Buren, who
couteuteu himself with declaring that he would
4 follow in the footsteps of his illustrious prede
cessor.’ Ho has done so with a vengeance! In
Mr. Adams’ time,,tho annual expenditures of the
Govorninunt amounted totiMvbnnda Kafomiot
of dollars. Undnr General Jackson’s 4 retrench
ment and reform’ administration this annual al-
pendituro was swelled to eighteen millions
and A quarter ! And now Martin Van Buren,
trending closely in Ids jpiadecessor’s 4 footsteps,'
has managed to squander annually the enormous

When I see a man who affect* to doubt eveiy
thing he hears, I never hesitate about writing him
down an ass. A great doubter is a solemn and
selfconceitcd pig. How amusing it is to see the
blockhead shake his empty pate, compreas hia
lips into a sneer; and turn up nis absurd unmean
ing eyes in dubious disbelief, when he hears
aught which he thinks it would imply sagacity to
discredit! Such persons imagine that to lie a
great doubter implies wisdom, whereas, in their
case, it has iu origin in constitutional phlegm and
stupidity .—Fraser's Magazine.

THE nnNfltyfrV^^NP ite xonse-
Now that the|puhlic mind in regard to tiie re
cent conspim^ of Messrs. Butler, Stevenson,
and their associates, has become aomewhnt tran
quil, we propose briefly to examine into its true
character.
The first question which naturally arises is,
who and what ore tiie parlies concerned in this
disgraceful plot) In the first place then we hnve
Mr. Benjamin Ft Butler, formerly Jacob Barker’s
Cashier of the Washington and Warren Bank,
late Attorney Generator the United States, now
U. S. Attorney fertile Southern District ofNew-
York,and always a professing Christian—assum
ing to be more conscientious, more honest, and
far more piou) than any other layman in the
United States. True, welutve all seen him sacri
fice his convictions of duty, tho most palpable
dictates of conscience, nnd the plainest require
ments of his outfiof office, to the simplost intima
tion* ofthe Executive. But sycophancy consti
tutes a part and parcel of Mr. Butler’* capital in
trade; nnd whenever lie has found it convenient
or necessary for his interest, to pursue a course
known to he hostile to the dictates of his judg
ment, his piety for months oftewards, buriit the
brighter—his exhortations and public prayers
worn tho more frequent—and niuny, very many,
have tints suffered their contempt for the time
serving politician, to be lost in their respect for
the professed piety of tho apparently, zealous
Christian. Binyhera are those who Imvo not been
thus gulled by the more cloak nf religion ; and
now that this mmcrupulous party tool has been
•tripped of his mask, wo doubt whether even tho
tfiost ignorant and devoted of his admirers, will
ever again ho deceived into respect for his more
professions of piety or his outward practice of re
ligion.
