STANZA3.-By TV. O Eaton.
In the troubled hour* of a wintry night
There coate* to my spirit a deep delight,
Whose generous thrill in mv bosom glows,
As welcome there as the sun to the rose,
On a dreary day when the winds are chill
And the glistering frost is on the hill.
The bee gleaneth honey where thorns arise;
On the desolate waste the sunlight Ties;
The green vines grow o’er the mouldering tower
And an odor breathes from the dying (lower;
On consumption's cheek there’s a heavenly bloom;
A beautiful light in her languid eye,
And the glories round and beyond the tomb
Steal the stings of death and the Par to die.
There is not an ill in this world of ours
That leadeth us not unto wisdom's bowers;
The stormiest wave unbosoms a treasure —
There is not a sorrow unn.rngled with pleasure;
A moral is taught by the darkest crime, —
E'en the features of wo have a grace sublime, —
For the soul is bowed by her magic tod,
And her finger points to the realms of God!
Oh! when the wild winds, in reinless career,
Bound o’er the white earth like the hunted deer,
Impetuous whirl through the snow-veiled sky,
Those steeds of the storm as along they fly,
Pervade the wide air wherever they prowl
With a lively whistle or mournful howl,
Or a music known to themselves alone,
Taught by the storm on his cloud-circled throno,
Where th*. lightning-flashes of heaven float,
And the thunder applauds each new-born note.
To hear their harmony breathing so free,
Those motley murmurs of sorrow or glee,
To the strieken heart is a nameless balm
As it holds with them a communion calm.
In the hush of night 1 hark to their voice
By the blaze of the hearth when none are nigh,
And the lonely post of my spirit’s choice
Is hallowed by rapture, —who knows not why 1
The whispering sweet which the winds repeat
In a tongue though foreign, to me is known,
Anil the throbs of my heart responsive beat
To the social flow of each mellow tone.
THE ELF-KlNG.— Goethe.
Who rideth so late through storm and night 1
A father it is with a burden light;
He safely carries a boy on his arm—
He presses him firmly—he keeps him warm.
“ My son, thou hidest thy face in fear !”
•‘O father! seest not thou the elf-king near?
See’st not thou the elf-king with sceptre and crown 7”
“ My son, ’tis a shadow upon the down.”
“ Thou lovely child, come go with me,
For the beautiful spurts will 1 [day with thee;
With my pretty garden flowers thou’lt live,
And glittering clothes will my mother give.”
u My father, my father, and dost thou not hear
What the elf king whispers so low in my ear?”
“ Be quiet, be quiet, my darling child,
’Tis the dry leaves rustling in the wild.”
" 0 beautiful boy with me go ?
My daughters shall all their treasures show;
My daughters shall round thee their night watch kerp
And rock thee, ane dance thee, and sing thee to
sleep,”
u My father, my father, and sce’st not thou there
The elf-king’s daughters with long black hair?”
“ My son, my son, I see well enow—
’Tis the old grey willow with weeping bough.”
“I love thee, I joy in thy countenance bright,
And if thou’rt not willing, I'll use my might.”
“My father,my father, I’m hurt! 1 trow
The elf king's hand is laid on me now!”
Now swift rules the father, with terror’*alarms,
He holds tire horror-struck boy in his arms;
He reaches his court yard with labor and dread—
In his father's arms the boy was dead!

Literary (Jem*.”
The following beautiful extracts are
from the works of Miss F. Bremer:
The Spirit of I,ovc.
Meanwhile the spring appeared. With
an expression of God’s love, the sun
smiled down upon the earth ; she felt it,
awoke from her sleep, and breathed out
. her morning prayer, in the silent but de
licious fragrance of the fresh flowers. I
would gladly know what goes on within
yon, O Earth, when thy birds began to
sing, thy waves to dance, when thou nr
rayest thyself in so beautiful a garment,
that, even under the shadows of night,
the stars of heaven and the eyes of men
look upon thee with love, when millions
of small winged beings arise from thy
flower-beds, and fill the air with the
harmonious murmur of their gay exist
ence, when a thrill of joy goes through
their veins, when the whole inspired na
ture is a look of love and a hymn of glad
ness; I would gladly know, if thou feel
est the gladness which goes out from
thee, the infinite delight which thou
causest. What Iktiow is, that thou giv
est new life to the heart of man ; to his
blood a quicker circulation ; that thou
deliverest his spirit from the oppressive
gray winter of life, that, resting on the
bosom of Nature, he can teel a joy inde
pendent of all things else, a pure feeling
of love of life, a love of living. O ! that
1 could leed out whoever is sick, in body
or mind, on a spring morning; lay him
among the young flowers; let him look
up to the dark "blue sky, and on the
blight and living splendor of the earth
about him ; let him feel the warmth of
the sun-beams, healing coolness of the
air. all the sweet influences of life and of
nature, which speaks to the heart like
the voice of a friend, like a smile from
God. Certainly, the unhappy man would
here forget for a time the ungrateful one
who has injured him ; forget the cares
which are wasting away the threads of
his life ; even remorse would here lie still
ed, believing in forgiveness; the often de
ceived Would hope anew ; certainly the
child sorrow would, before, his death,
have a few hours of undisturbed falicity;
when the evening comes, -he could still
look back upon this spring morning and
say: “[ too have been happy upon the
earth.” • ? * '
Fame and Immortality.
“The consequences which the actions
of men bring after them commonly lie
out of their power to complete. A small
seed may grow up to a great tree, a bla
zing lire may be smothered in ashes. —
Whether the victories of heroes have
done more for humanity, than the unob
trusive life of love of an unknown man,
is only seen by the Allseeing Eye above
us. Let each one do the good that is in
his path and in his calling, and his work
shall remain, even if it seem to pass a
way, and will bear fruit in its time.—
Honorable fame, my best Edla,” he con
tinued, turning towards her a full and
affectionate glance, “must not be con
founded with immortality on earth.—
A name may be repeated by millions
through centuries of years—that is fame.
The good which yon think and do. the
spirit which goes from you, and which
lives and perpetuates itself through end
less generations, this is true immortality
upon the earth.”
Children,
And children children Oh! ye
small, lovely, beautiful, innocent beings,
darlings of God and man, the spring
seems made for you, and you for the
spring, when I see you among the flowers
the brilliant butterflies hovering around
you, I know not what more beautiful a
higher world can give.
Love.
The genius of love comes into lift- be
fore that of art.—There are men who
perform noble deeds, others who sing
and immortalize their actions. Without
a deep powerful love, which causes rela
tions and friends to act and suffer for
each other, without actions which show
that ‘love is stronger than death,” pencil
and chisel would not have brought tears
to her eyes, and music w ould have been
bnt-a plaything. It is the inspiring
glance of love which gives words of fire
to the artist’s lips—they can utter no
thing beautiful which that has not first
dictated,”
The Martyrs for truth.
“It is good lo read of the noble hearts
which have beat, —which have bled for
eternal truths. One feels one’s self near
this ocean of power and love, as a drop,
a little drop. Humbly to know one’s
self is good. If the drop suffers, what
is that to the great whole? Canons
bleed; the lives of heroes pass away in
fetters; —droop, complain not!”
Admiration.
“Admiration, —rich source of enjoy
ment! Why art thou not more sought?
Thy pure streams will never scorch the
thirsting; now upon this little earth he
can be refreshed bv thee; after thousands
and thousands of years, in a higher un
folding of God’s infinite creation, shall
he drink of thy ever young, thy ever
fresh waters. The pleasure which thou
givest is pure, and followed by no pain.
Happy those who early learn to admire
what is worthy of admiration!”
Love and Reconciliation.
It is a glorious thing,—and those who
truly love know well how glorious it is—
after moments of misunderstanding, even
of reciprocal trausgression, to rest again,
heart, to heart and to feel, deeply feel,
that there is a certainty in the world, in
spite of nil the powers of hell, a certainty
which is heaven upon earth, —that they
love each other, that belong to each other,
that nothing, in the world shall separate
them, who have found each other again
in true, in perfect love.—O! this is a
certainty, the most beautified (hat there
is on earth, —a certainty, which is the
foundation and security for every other.
He felt it truly, the man, who, when
about to leave the stage of life, laid his
hands upon his heart and said: “llove,
therefore, 1 am immortal!”
John Mazeppa, a Polish gentleman,
born in the palatinate of PoJo it, was ed
ucated as the page of John Cassimir, and,
at his court, became acquainted with let
ters. An intrigue in his youth with the
wife of a Polish gentleman, caused him
to be bound, naked, to the back of a wild
horse.
“‘Bring forth the horse’’—the horse was brought;
In truth he was a noble steed,
A Tartar of the Ukraine breed;
Who looked as though the speed of thought
Were in his lim! s ; but he was wild,
Wild as the wild deer, and untaught;
With spur and bridle undefiled
'Twas but a day he had been caught;
And snorting, with erected mane,
And struggling lieicely, but in vain.
In the full fount of wrath and dread,
To him tile desert born was led.’ : —Byron.
On being loosed, the horse, which was
of the Ukraine, returned thither, bearing
Mazeppa, who arrived, half dead with
hunger and fatigue. Some peasants of
f-red him succor; he remained a long
time among them, signalizing himself in
many exertions against the Tartars. The
superiority of his understanding acquired
him the respect of the Cossacks, and, in
consequence of his increasing reputation,
the czar was constrained to make him
Prince of the Ukraine. He, however,
joined Charles XII, and fougilt for him
at the fatal battle of Pultawa.
In some parts of Germany, during the
feudal times, an infringement of the for
est-laws, was punished by chaining the
offender to the hack of a wild stap, which
hounded away with him, through thorny
thickets, and wild passes, until death re
lieved him of his sufferings.
Anti-Corn Law League.
A glorious war for the liberty of trade
is now going on in England, and will
speedily sweep away every vestige of the
old uud decaying system of protection.
A gentleman who recently visited the
vast establishment of the League in Lon
don, says they send out from it every
month a ton of pamphlets. The count
the result as already certain. It is a no
ble movement.

Washington, D. C-, March 13, J 843.
TIIE GAZETTE.
The time has arrived, when, it has become neces
sary for the Friends of Free Trade to unite in sus
taining their cause.
The commercial community and agricultural pop
ulation of the country, have been subjected to the
operation of an unequai and unjust Tariff Law. A
law, admitted by its framers and advocates, to have
been hastily devised amt hurriedly acted on, forced
through Congress at the close of an extra session,
and adopted by a single casting vote. A law, which
makes forced loans from importers, in the way of
cash duties, amounting on an average to 30 per cent,
of their capital. A law, which by heavily taxing ma
terials used in ship building, being equal to 85 per
ton, which, on a vessel of 600 tons, amounts lo the
enormous sum of 83,500 is driving cur ships from the
foreign carrying trade. Foreign and cheaper built
vessels monopolize to a great extent, the business
which was formerly done by our ships.
The friends of Free Trade, contend that justice to
the Merchants, Ship Builders, and Ship Owners, and
to the Farmers of the country, demands an immedi
ate modification of this oppressive Tariff Law. They
contend, that, the Agricultural and Commercial in
terests of the United States arc indissolubly united.
That, the prosperity and extension of trade and com
merce, necessarily promotes the extension and pros
perity of agriculture.
They believe the power granted to Congress by
the Constitution, to regulaie commerce, was not in
tended to be used for its destruction.
They believe it bad policy for the government, in
time of profound peace, tinder pretence of passing a
revenue bill, to pass a bill destroying revenue, and
then borrow money with which to carry on the gov
ernment, and at the same time laying the foundation
of a large public debt.
They bclirve a crisis has been reached in the af
fairs of the country, when these measures must be
met, resisted and ove/come, by the united and effi
cient action of the friends of free trade.
From the signs of the times, should the advocates
of commercial restriction and unequal taxation, suc
ceed in electing their candidate for the Presidency,
the disastrous result will be, that we shall have the
severe grievances of which we justly complain, fas
tened upon us as the permanent policy of the coun
try.
To avoid an event fraught wdth such evil conse
quences, it behooves us to unite with others in the
support of a Free Trade Candidate for the Presiden
cy. The time for action is short. In a few more
months, an individual may be selected, as President,
whose opinions, power and influence, might he fear
fully exerted against us. Or one, whose views, feel
ings and opinions coincide with our own.
Something should be done. At the present time,
the Press of this city occupies a position unfavorable
to tiie success of our cause. The necessity for a
new paper is evident, from the fact that at present,
none of the papers of this city advocate to the full
extent, and with sufficient energy and zeal, the ptin
ciples for which we contend.
A paper of this character seems at the presen
juncture indispensable. It should he in its ends and
aims, essentially a Free Trade paper; and at the same
time, advocate the claims to office, of men in whose
undisguised principles, we might place the most ii»‘
plicit confidence.
A Committee of Free Trade Gentlemen, have
been organized to solicit subscriptions from persons
disposed to contribute means, towards starting in this
city, as soon as practicable, anew Comercia! and
Free Trade paper, with the intention, at the same
time of lending its honest and fair support for the
Presidency, to the candidate v hose opinions are well
known to he favorablo to a liberal Commercial policy.
Writers of acknowledged ability, zeal and indus
try, will have charge of the F.ditorial columns.
Talents of the highest order will be engaged to
take charge of the respective Departments of the
paper.
The state of the Money Market, with Reports of
Banks, Incorporated Joint Stock Companies, Procee
dings of Congress, and of State Legislatures, in re
lation to all financial affairs, with regular tallies of
Exchange Domestic and Foreign, combined with
general groupings of all monetary movements taking
plate in all parts of the civilized world, will form a
permanent feature of the paper.
Another department of the paper will be devoted
to information concerning the state of the principal
Markets of the world for Agricultural products. Cor
respondence will also be established w ith the farm
ing and planting districts of the interior, in order to
obtain the latest news of the extent and prospects of
the growing crops.
Your aid in promoting the objects expressed in
the above circular, is respectfully solicited, with that
of your triends, which can be remitted by mail, in
the way of subscribers, or other contributions, to the
address of I. F. Hutton, 47 1-2 Wall street, or to E.
B. Hart, 18 Wall street, New Y'ork.
PROPOSALS.—It is proposed to publish a paper
that in connection with the objects above expressed,
shall also support the claims of the Hon. JOHN C.
CALHOUN, for the Presidency of the United States,
subject to the decision of a National Convention of
Delegates, sent directly from the People.
A Daily and Weekly paper, will be issued, of the
full ordinary size, printed on good paper and with en
tire new type. The price for the Daily will be 86 00
and for the Weekly, 83 00 per annum, payable in all
cases, in advance.
Single copies of the Daily will be two cents, and

to remit funds or subscriptions for newspapers free

THE PETERSBURG REPUBLICAN.
Believing the present to be a crisis too important to
(be interests of the Democratic party to allow any press
devoted toils cause to sink for want of support, (he
subscriber has, at the instance ol many friends, con
sented to assume the editorial guidance of the Peters
burg Republican.
Recognizing in the late temporary defeat of Democ
racy the necessity of recurrence for future success to
the fundamental principles of States’ Rights, and iheir
strict application to all Federal issues. The Republi
can wili neither in itself exhibit laxity of political fault,
nor tolerate its indulgence in others, but will undevia
tingly adhere to the noble principles, as admirably em
bodied by one of our distinguished Statesmen—“ Free
trade; low duties ;no debt; seperation from Banks;
economy; re trenchment; and strict adherence to the
Constitution.”
The Successful maintenance''and permanent estnb
bailment ol this w ise and just system of measures must
greatly depend on the judicious selection of the Demo
cratic candidate for the next Presidency, and believing
the amplest guarantee of these important tnds to be
afforded by the eminent abilities and unsullied faith of
JO! IN C. CALHOUN, the Republican will advocate
his claims to ihe noaination of the National Conven
tion. The sc claims wth be enforced with due respect
to the preferences of others, and the cordinl support of
