’Tis his, the unroyal king of France—
No lineal right hath placed him there,
Tiie sport of fame—the thing of chance—
The fearful and fierce in war!
Behold again! The embattled lines
In phalanx deep rushed by;
The allied sabre waves and shines.
“ Napoleon; yield, or proudly die!”
“lyield? " Napoleon yin. to slaves?
No! sooner tell the sun wax pale!
Their blood shall dye the earth and waves,
Before this strong right arm shall fail!”
It came—that earthquake shock—it came,
And thrones lay low beneath ills sway,
And men grow pale before the flame
'J’hat flashed along his sabre’s way.
The scene hath changed to change no more.
Whose grave that rests uumarbled here ?
Unhouorcd on this sounding shore?
Unwept thro’ each revolving year ?

Th El bore him o’er the yielding wave,
And placed him on this rock—to die.

A VIEW OF LONDON.
Rome was tailed the mistress of the world,
yet, in its palmiest day, was not equal to
Liitain in power or dominion; nor can anj r of
the boasted cities of antiquity—Carthage,
Tyre, or Alexandria; or, in later times, Venice
or Genoa, when their maritime greatness was
in its glory,-and their trade the wonder and
admiration of their respective ages—not one
can bear a moment’s comparison with London.
Rfitain’s trade claims the whole habitable
globe for its operations. Her colonies are
placed in every direction where man can exist.
Upon her dominion the sun never sets. Her
Hag waves upon every sea; and a volume
would be required to detail the results of her
maritime enterprise and internal trade upon
the aspect of the city which forms the centre
of these mighty operations. In population,
London is a nation in herself. The number
of inhabitants has doubled in forty years, aud
now amounts to one million nine hundred thou
sand. In J9lo it will contain two millions!—
in length, from east to west, the houses extend
in one line between five and six miles; and in
breath, from north to south, nearly four. Rut
if we include Chelsea at one extreme, and
Black wall at the other, and take the breadth
front Walworth to Halloway—and these are
now certainly portions ofthe great city—wo
shall have London covering above thirty square
miles of ground! And then her river, bearing
upon its surface the ships of every nation;
aud her docks—the East and West India
docks, the London docks, the Commercial
docks, and the St. Katharine’s docks, together
covering more than five hundred acres, teem
ing with valuable commodities; and one of
them, the \Y est India docks, capable of ac
commodating five hundred large ships. To

THE WHIG PARTY AND THE TARIFF.
That the Whigs ofthe North, the miikiie, aii’l the Wes
tern Stall a, constitute the Hi. h Tariff party ofthe coun
try, is it position, which, it is presumed, will not b • jncs-
’-■oned by any one conversant with political affairs That
this alliance has been effected by ore motive, and is di-
rectnl to one object.—the maintenance and perpetuation
of the “American System,” recent political events, as
tally attest. It then becomes a question, no less impor
tant than interesting to enquire, what relation the South
ern allies of this powerful party may bear to their politi
cal brethren?
Are the Southern Whigs prepared to abandon all their
former po’itica! principles, in defence of which, the South
for the last fifteen years, have contended with a zeal as
holy, and a genius as lofty, and a patriotism as pure, as
ever adorned the eloquence, or consecrated the exer
tions of freemen struggling for their violated rights?
Will the people of Georgia, and the Southern States, a-
gainst whom --the Proclamation” and the “Bloody Force
Bill were ihnndfirutl, in the dark hour of their oppres
sion. and against whom the Mirmydons of the TarilF
were marshalled in hostile array, ready to blast with the
fire and sword of war, the land they had insulted and op
pressed by exactions, now, that the contest is won, des
poil themselves of the trophies of their glory, and igno-
liiiuiously assume the livery of bondsmen?
“Coming events cast their shadows before.’’
The contest will he made, and whilst the bugle blast
of preparation is heard throughout our entire land sum
moning the partisan to the field of political strife, we may
he assured, that though the former may will it. yet, the
latter, if the Democracy are true to the principles ofthe
South, can never he witnessed.
The spirit ofthe Southern Whig press has manifested
and is manifesting indications not to he misunderstood,
that their affections have been transferred to, and that
their purposes are identified with those of the Northern
Federalist- - .
Hie Columbus Enquirer, the organ of the Whig par
ty,—the faithful representative of Whig principles, pre
sents a fit illustration ofthe above proposition.
In commenting upon Major Cooper’s letter of resig
nation to the Governor, in which he declared, that ••pur
suant to assurances given previous to iiis first election,
he had always opposed a National Bank and a National
Dell—and had advocated Free Trade, Eipial Fates, Low
Duties, Economy, and a diminution of Government pat-
Atg/i tariff, discriminating j n fhvor of such articles i

time opposed t!ie Protective System. The then c
runts and the vnsent oppomn’s 'of the Protective Pr.
pie, were and are denominated Fru-Trade-men.
their opponents, Restricts mists or Tarilfiies. F5
Trade then is a political phrase denoting a system of i
posts which looks to revenue, in opposition to the Pr<
tective System. But echoes the organ of Whiggery-
“We repeat the assertion, that unless the Freedom i
universal and reciprocal, there is no foundation in itAj
Let us trace its operation.—The Southern planter ex
ports one hundred bales of cotton to Great Britain, an
for the privilege of selling it there, a duty or tax of :
percent, is exacted. It will not be denied that, u mL 7
such a tax-law, precisely twenty hales would be takc^
from the plauter to pay to Great Britain her Impost*
Dntv. According to the argument of the Tariff Party
our Government, in the case supposed, should lay a dut|i
precisely at 20 per cent, on the articles imported fr t: 3
England in exchange for the remaining eighty bales ojjj
Cotton, with a view to retaliate upon Great Britain foil
exacting the twenty hales in the first instance. The plan' I
ter returns with the proceeds of about eighty hales, aat#
is told, that, because Great Britain has robbed him o.'j
twenty bales, our Government, for the purpose of mat -.
iafing upon England, must rob him of twenty likewise:,
Such is the practical operation of retaliatory duties, anijj
yet, we are gravely told, that unless the “freedom ir ^ jL
trade is universal and reciprocal, there is no found.itior *| [
in it.” The monopolists of the North used the ahoval
argument in favor of the Tariff, until their decent motM ' . ,
esty, as the light of discussion exposed its folly and filial j
cy, blushed at their former simplicity. Tt is the broad J
est ground ever assumed by the tariffites, and is am pit J •
enough, if conceded, to support their entire system. Thi j ^
Northern monopolizing Federalists, desire no etronge j • £
doctrines than* those above referred to advanced, nc* ) y
doubt, with as much sincerity, as they are unsound i: ? ?
principle.
\\ ith a view, however, of diverting the public eyi J
from this important issue, the Whigs have fabricated tht ^
charge that the Democrats are in favor of direct taxa. ■
lion It is not a little unfortunate for them, that theyr- >
cannot quote a single sentence ofthe Democratic Creed \ *
which does not dearly and effectually refute the charge .
They are then driven to the necessity of drawing upui

The Love op Money.—There is nothing
which brings more misery than an inordinate
love of money, for when once it obtains a firm
hold on our minds, it destroys all the nobler
and better feelings.— Who that is continually
studying how to take advantage of his neigh
bor’s necessities or is looking about to seek
some advantage of Lis brother man, is a good
man? Itcannotl>e,forbetievolence, reverence
and all the moral faculties are slumbering,
while ucuisitivouess, cautiousness, those evil
and hurtrui passirnrs, .uc wi.iv, ..mata, tt .<a
prompt to all that is base. Let a benevo
lent man, a man who has in his heart the warm
and open spring of sympathy for all his fel
lows, converse with a miserly niggard; one
who though rich is continually making himself
miserable, because lie is afraid lie may come
to poverty, and what a feeling it will give
him. He pities the poor creature thus lost to
all that elevates and raises human character,
for he feels that he has perverted the purpose
for which lie was brought into being. And so
be has; for although acquisitiveness was prop
erly given to us, so Liint wo i^.i^lit- not fail to
provide for the wants of ourselves and those
dependent upon us, yet the very fact that we
possess other and better faculties, or traits of
character, is sufficient to teach us that it is
our duty to use them, and not sacrifice our
selves to the cultivation of one alone.
The man who only loves money is not only
miserable himself, but he is an evil in society,
in many respects. When anything is propos
ed for the good of society, ant! which is not of
immediate benefit to himself, how quickly he
will frown upon it, and find fault with it in
some respect. He thinks every tiling wrong
which will interfere with his purse. No mat
ter how benevolent the plan, or how much
good is proposed to be done, if it draws upon
his purse, it is detectable in bis eyes, and ceas
es to have any attraction.
To love of money deceives men in regard
to their characters. They may suppose their
actions are correct and honorable, when in
fact they are not capable of judging of them
selves, because money blinds them. 1 have
seen men who thought they were acting a no
ble part, when in fact community looked upon
them as mean, stingy and contemptible.—
There is nothing that will shut the eyes to all
good like the love of money. Its glittering
charm rouses within the breast such selfish
feelings, as will make man a demon. The
cries of poverty may strike the ear but they
are unheeded. The claims of parental love
may cull, but affection is past. The dearest
friends on earth are often sacrificed.—The
holiest ties severed, and the place of happiness
occupied by misery.
Now this should not be; for it is a moral
curse which desolates society, and saps tho
very foundation of all religion and virtue.—
And how shall it he remedied?—There is hut
j one way and that is sure. Let the parent
' who is bringing tip bis children teach them

colonies 1,(U3 ships! from her own coasts, in-

907 ships; from foreign countries, 2,35,5; which
with 3,100 British vessels, formed one year’s
trade. What can compare with this? Lon

The very idea of “Low Duties” excludes tht supposition \
of an abandonmnit of the Impost System.
< l n this, however, as on all questions, the Democrat
Party have a right to define their own position, and the* \>
have done so. As far back as 1S42, they put forth the il r
formal manifesto to the world, to which they have adi5 ,
hered, and to which they do adhere, with unparalleled .
unanimity. It speaks for itself. It needs no commen , ,
tary. It excludes the idea of Direct Taxation, fully J .
completely, and effectually. In reference* to theMmpoi l' •
i System, it declares,—“That the same rare of duty ma- J* |
) be imposed upon the protected articles that shall be upo{ J
j the unprotected, provided that no more rex T enue be rais - ,
| ed than is nece-sary to meet the demands ofthe Govj^‘ ■
I eminent, for Constitutional purposes, and provided, a! A ( f
I so, that a duty, substantially uniformed, be imposod urn<| ^
| on all foreign imports.”
1 These principles of imposts, were denominated it. ■ i

Trade, policy.’' It was in defence of this system, of*; k.
nomine, that the Old State Rights Party, contended frottfx', !

try is to be the victim, whilst every other is to plunder
her with impunity and fatten on her ruin, icc declare tear
in adcance against such a System, anil shall large it, until
the people shall overthrow its advocates.” The above
thread bare and exploded doctrine of the Tariffites of the
North, now engrafted upon the stock of Southern Whig-
gery, when rendered in plain English, is simply this—•
that unless other nations adoptthe system of Free Trade,
it is not politic for this country to do so. It was under
this pretext of regulating commerce, for the purpose of
coercing the different nations of Europe to a fair and
equal intercourse with us in trade, that the manufactu
ring interest ofthe North, aided by the friends of Intern
al Improvements in the West, fixed upon the country
the Tariff" of 1228, appropriately denominated, “the bill
of abominations,” which nearly drove the entire South
ern population into open rebellion.
Il the majority ill Congress are permitted, under the
Constitution, to impose ‘ prohibitions and restrictions”
upon commerce, not with a view to revenue, is it not
manifest, that the power to protect manufactures would
be conceded to the utmost stretch that avarice aud rapac
ity might claim? To labor the argument at this day and
in tins country would be to offer an insult to the intelli
gence of our people.

THAMES TUNNEL.
The cost of the Thames Tunnel is about
•‘83,000,000. It is now in use for foot passen
gers at two cents a head. Whether the car
riage-way is yet opened for use, we are not
informed. Cruikshank, in his Comic Annual
for 18-13, says;
“Perhaps no enterprise ever had so much
cold water thrown upon it, and never was
there a project which it seemed at one time
so difficult to go through with. The engineer
has worked like a horse, and lias scarcely ever
been out of the shaft. The original share
holders, whose pockets were well drained in
fruitless efforts to drain the tunnel, have now
the satisfaction of once more running through
their property. For some time the ardor of
the projectors was damped by the works going
on rather too swimmingly. When accidents
were every-day occurrences, the tunnel was a
matter of interest; but since tbe water lias
been effectually kept out, it has become a dry
subject. On more than one occasion the com
pany would have been swamped in spite of
all hands being put to tho pumps, if Govern
ment had not lent their sucker. The funds,
iti fact, were at low water mark long before
the works reached the same desirable point;
and the more the tunnel was set afloat, the
more were the shareholders aground in their
undertaking.”
A German paper relates that a pair of storks
had built their nest on a tree, close to a brew
ery, at Smolen, near Radom, in Poland. The
brewery recently caught fire, and the flames
threatened to catch the tree, yet the mother-
bird would not stir, and remained firm on
her seat, covering her brood, with her wings.
At length the tree was involved in the confla
gration and burnt, with the poor stork and her
young. During the whole time the male bird
kept flying round the scene of destruction, ut
tering cries of distress.
: ly forbid the idea, that the freemen of this country
at a i ever sanction doctrines so dangerous to their rights and
interests.
The inestimable benefits nnd advantages of Free
Trade, even though it be not reciprocated by other na
tions, have been so often discussed, so clearly illustrated,
and so fully established by Southern Statesmen, of all

Necessity, it is said, can know no law. A party, to
preserve its integral identity, must act together or be bro
ken into fragments. The Southern portion, to consti
tute its unity, must echo hack the voice, which calls to it
from the North. Hence, in the South, vve are startled at
the spirit manifested in the tone ol the Whig Press.
“Free Trade and Low Duties,” the motto of tho South
the principles for which it has contended for die last lift
teen years, now threatened with repudiation by a portion
of her own sons! Europe witnessed the contest. Her
enlightened Political Economists of the “Sea girt Isle,”
nobly struggling to remove the restriction imposed by
llie- “Corn Laws.” which snatched from an impoverished
and beggared yeomanry the bread which supported ex-
istence, to pamper the insolence of wealth, caught the
inspiration of Southern Eloquence, and proclaiming the
principles of “Free Trade” to a Monarchical Govern
ment, proudly pointed to America! And yet, ill refer
ence to “Free Trade and Low Duties,” the Whig Or
gan, of this City declares.—“We are not certain that vve
distinctly understand what ideas these expressions are
intended to convey.” What! The Columbus Enquirer
ignorant ofthe meaning of these time established terms?
And can this be, when the self-saute Press battled for
years in defence of these very principles, with an ability
which shed light and lustre on the cause it advocated?
Was not that honored and ancient party denominated
the “Free Trade and State Rights party?” And did not
that l»res5—the organ of that party—its editors, political
friends, partisans, aud supporters all profess a knowl

Trade, with a sincerity which even their opponents did

like the shades of evening, imperceptibly blending the
day with darkness, presents the old State Kiguts party in
the ranks ofthe Federalists? What cloud hasoflateso

led that once gallant party onward as “a cloud by day and
a pillar of fire by night,” no longer illumine their path

THE RESURRECTION.
Twice had the sun gotta down on the earth and all as
yet was quiet at the sepulchre; Death held his sceptre
over the Son of God; still and s.Ient the hours passed
on; the guards stood by their posts; the rays ot the mid
night moon gleamed on their helmets an<V on their
spears; the enemies of Christ exulted in their success;
the hearts of his friends were sunk in despondency and
sorrow; while the spirits of glory waited with anxious
suspense to behold the event—wondering at the depth
o!* the ways ol" God. At length tiie morning star, aris
ing in the east, announced the approach of light; the
third day began to dawn on the world; when, on a »ud-
deu. the earth trembled to its centre, and the powers of
heaven were shaken; an angel oi God descended; tne
guards shrunk back from the terror of his presence, and
i'ell prostrate on the ground. His countenance was like
lightning, am! ins raiment was white as snow; he rolled
away the stone front the door of the sepulchre, and s it
on it. I ,
But who is this that corneth from the tomb with uye I
garments from the bed of death? Hethat is glorious in
his appearance, walking ill the greatnessof hisstrength!
It is thy Pi in ;e. It Zion! Christians, it is your LorJ!
He hath troJ lett the wine-press alone; lie bath stame 1
his raiment with blood; but now, us the first-born front
the womb of nature, be meets the morning ol Ins res
urrection. He rises, a conqnerer fiom the grave; he re
turns with blessings from the world of spirits; he brings
salvation to the sons of men. Never did tiie retitruin ■
sun usher in a day so glorious! It was the jubilee of
the universe ! The morning stars sang together, and all
the sons of God shouted aloud for joy. The Father ot
Mercies looked down from his throne in the heavens
with complacency; he beheld his world restored—he saw
his work that it was good—Then did the desert rejoice;
the face of nature was gladdened before him, when the
blessings of the Eternal descended as the dews ol heaven,
for the refreshing of the nations.

What then is Free Trade ? Does not every man of
candor and intelligence know, that it designates that sys
tem of imposts which is levied upon importations for
the purpose of raising a revenue for tbe support of the

Whence the origin of the phrase Free trade !
As applied to parties in this country, it is or no recent
date. We read of itatau eventful period of our history,
when Great Britain attempted to fetter and crip; le. our
commerce and to impress our seamen upon the com
mon highway ol nations. r l lie spirit of the American
people rose up in arms, and declared war against that
Colossal power, whilst on sea and on land, the motto of

The language—-Free-Trade’—was deemed good Eng

resisted, were imposed by a foreign Government, can it
be pretended, that principle looses itself, when our home
Gov ernment adopts a similar system of injustice aud op
pression! It is well known that consequent upon the
wars between Great Britain and France, and the former
power and tins country in 1815, that the -restrictions,
non-intercourse, and embargo, adopted by Gooaress,
stimulated into existence the manufacturing cstablisn-
ments of that day. Policy and patriotism combined to
favor their interests. On the return of peace, in K. ,a
tariff was adopted, protecting to an eminent e-ree,

proviso, in the form of a compromise, that in three
