(U" Tin STANDARD OF UNION, which came into life during the stormy pe
riod of 1333,has entered the sixth year of its existence, with fresh vigor and renew
•d energies, in support of the great cause of tho CONSTITUTE >N and the UNION.
For the patronage which it has received, and the estimate which has been so gene
rously placed upon our feeble eilbi ts to maintain the stability aud perpetuity of our
bleated innkuliona, we have no adequate language to express our gratitude; aud in
return foi thoro unerring evidences of the public approbation, we are armed with ad
riitional strength to iro forward.
The principle’ which the Standard has heretofore advocate I, it will continue to
maintain, with increased energy.
It shill be, a* it ha« boon, the STANDARD OF UNION. It shall support and de
fend the I NION of ALL tho STATES, as the only nvan« of preserving “ the .sove
reignty of EACH, n and io inculcate the great and wholoaome truths, upon which
ear lathers so gallantly achieved tho principles of liberty end independence.
XV e shall oppose with vigilance, any abuse or usurpation of power by tbc Federal
Govemin ?ul, by all constitutional nnans, and as zealously oppose all r ish.iud reck
less movements by States, calculated to jeopardize tho harmony of our beloved
Union, “ until the accumulation of oppression, shall outweigh die evils of separation.”
We cling with unwavering confidence to the great fundamental principle, that man
is capable of eelAgovcrnmcnt; and will in nowpic be instrumental in arresting the
experiment now in progress, by which alone this great problem cun be solved. We
4e«ire to see the principles of the American revolution acted out, that the world ma)
know, whether mankind are worthy the blessings of liberty and independence, or
whether, from their own wickedness and folly, they are the natural subjects of unar
■chy and despotism. For ourselves, we have too much confidence in the wi-doni and
finnness of our institutions—in the intelligence) and patriotism of the people—to
question for a single moment, the final and glorious triumph of REPUBLICAN
GOVERNMENT, over all others.
The fierce doctrines of Nullification, which we encountered at the commencement
es our career, after a fiery contest of four or five year*, have sunk at last, under tire
paramount influence of public opinion; and arc uow only remembered as a thing that
was. But others have grown up of no less fitMl Un hncy. The strngds of the
United States Bank for unlimited power, should awakisu the democracy of the Union
to one united and vigorous effort to resist the influence of a monopolizing spirit,
which is seeking to subject the Government aud the people Io its dictatorial nm! des
potic sway, in this contest, the Standard of Union will be found, as it has heretofore
been, on the side of the people.
But there is still another project on foot, which every man who loves his country
must contemplate with mingled emotions of horror and in di-nation. 7 he attempt of
the northern fanatics to interfere with our domestic institution*, m open tiolsrionof
the constitution, <1 <ervcs the execration of every patriot, and shall not fail to receive
our unc easing, uncompromi <ing, and most efficient opposicion.
Upon the subject of th? currency, we cut rtein but one opinion—that no Govern
ment should sanction the existence of any circulutin g medium, which is not equiva
lent to gold and silver; and that th * Stiitci alone, possessing ths power of im orpo
rattng and regulating Banks, should lose no time in reforming the system a* it now
exists, end of placing all Banking Institutions upon such a foundation as will insure
the fulfilment of their obligations, in pood faith to the public.
As gold and silver form the only currency known to the Constitution, it is our
deliberate opinion, that nothing else should be received by the Government, in the
collection of its dues; and ss it regards the separation of the Gov chub*'M from «ll
Banks, the measure proposed by President Van Buren, generally known as the Sub- i
Treasury Sysftnn, meets our most cordial and decided approbation.
We approve the measures of thepr administration, a« we did tho*r of it-’ ;
illustrious predecessor, believing them tube founded upon th.-pure principles of 1
democracy, and shall give them our bort support.
Thus have wc briefly adverted to flic course of the Standard in limes ps»f, and the
path it will pursue in future, cheered on as it is, by the c<»wfd nre awd support of ’
the Union Party. With a circulation equalled by very few Journ «'• »n the ."tan them
States, wc rimll double our diligence to make it r.« ry way worthy of the support .
which it has received from an enlightened community.
Intending as wc do, to make it a source of increased i.jformation upon general !
subjects,and to rend-r it mi instrument of additional n <s««r wbwfc
it advocates, and the principles it maintain*, wc couGd’f.tiy appeal to the UNION
BARTY, for r -ii increase of its circnl-.t'on.
Nor need it bo supposed from the for going, that our column® sill be lacking in in
terest to the general reader. Contnmingas th •. do, tnnr.* «q>ace than is embraced in
those of any other journal in this or our nmghbnring St ites, an I printed in s neat
and compart forni, we shall have ample room to five pls<-• to t!»c choir ret grn.s that
appear in the numerous and valuable period: tls of our conntn , keep the search
er after new* advised of the many and remarkabl i ev nt’ that transpire in our ex
tended territory; and wc do hope, that occasionally, at least, w mell hive tho plea
sure of laying b. for our reader'?, productions from* the pens of f <rn<? of tiie gift d
son* of our own Georgia.
In the appio.x hing campaign, wo shell be found st our po«ts, n rnfully rnstr/n’nir
the nominations of our Party, nothing doubting that wc shall gain a Ki *nal triumph,
cm ihe first Monday in October next.

BY U£N II Y THOMf sO S .
111-futed spot! A wand’rcr from thy shore,
How swells my heart, to hear thy hapless fate;
And starts the tear, that o’er that home of Faruo
Hath roll’d uustaid tho ull devouring f.ame.
Y’es ! Home of Fame! of virtue and of worth!
YVhere came the exile—and none came in vain,
Nor left thy sunny shore without regret,
Devoted home ! thy glory shall not set;
But J’hceni.x like, in beauty it shall rise
Though to tho flame, ’tis now a sacrifice!
Homo of the kind, the good, tho beautiful;
Home early lov’d! I sec thee from afar,
And sigh, that when to thee I come again
No bright familiar spot my honrt shall share,
No early haunt where once I lov’d to stray -
Shall seem the same!—by fire ’twas swept away!
And tho old Temple of my Sabbath prayer,
I’ll seek to find—but it will not be there.
111-fated Homo! and can it be so soon.
That o’er the scarce chill’d earth the lurid tid*
Hath bow’d again thy beauty and thy pridi ?
Or do I dreuw ? Ah! no, that hope is fiod :
” SfliuM.ix snj fikruxuuruut, y« are w rth the dead!
And ’neatli the ruin pile, perchance ye lie
Mangled and torn! Oh ! God!—’tis vain to weep!
Faithful they died! and peaceful be their sleep.
111-fated spot! on thoc I yet would gaze;
Home of my early life, and happier days!
Though exiled now, I cannot teach my heart
From thy lov’d scenes— for ever to depart.—
Awhile, and I rolurp to thee again,
And love thee for thy sorrows, still the more!
And rorno wiiere once antique St. Philip's stood,
And the old Synagogue—its pooplo’s pride;—
• But know thee not I fear; since the wild sea
Os liquid fire and llama hath swept o’or thee.
Yet thou art cherish’d still, —a favor’d spot,—■
Thy people mourn thy wreck—but murmur not;
And love the home, whore one# thoir fathers trod,
And Use, for it, their country aud their God.

TO A STAR.
BY J. C. WHIT TIE H.
Wonderful yet familiar, fadeless gem—
Set by the hand of angels, in the arch
Os the eternal Heaven! how beautiful
Thy soft light rosteth on the quiet sea,
That gathered into waves, as if the winds
Os yesterday were poisoned in its depths,
And struggling to bo free.
The hazy clouds,
Palo relics of ths recent storm, have drawn
Their thin, grey shadows out upon the sky,
And curtained it in beauty. Thus alone
Look’st out upon the darkness. Tho great wave
That comoth up unto the guarded shore
with its eternal thunder, hath received
Thy solitary beam, yet pauseth not
In its mad turbulence. So l.avo I seen
The light of woman's love poured out upon
The darkness of man’s soul, yet hushing not
The tempest of hia passions, a blessed beam
Crossing tho troubled stages of tho mind,
Like moonlight glimpses on a sky of storm.
Sole watcher of the heavens! 1 have not learned
Chaldea’s mystic fuith, yet thou dust seem
The emblem of a solitary heart,
Companioning, like mine. $o kindred star
Huth gladness in thy presence, uriil thy light
Fnllcth upon tho waters, liko the lovo
Os u young heart upon tho hallow world,
Unanswered, unregarded
MISCELLANEOUS.
ON THE MARRIED STATE.
7'« Miss :—Knowing that yon nro shortly to enter a garden,
enclosed, and that yon are, at present, a stranger to this garden,
p'-rinit an old friend to give yon some account of it. 1 have travel
led every part and every path; know every production of every
kind, it ran possibly yield; and,as my information can do you no
harm, it may do you some good.
Yon know there is hut one way of entrance. I need hardly tell
yon that it is extremely gay and glittcrimr—strewed with flowers of
every hue and every frairraitcc, witit all that art or imagination can
invent. You may fondly hope tins scene, of rupture will never al
ter. as yon will never see the end of the path when you enter it.
To some it proves a shot lone ; and to you it may appear very diffe
rent in the retrospect.
Here, nty dear girl, let me caution you not to dream of perfect or
perpetual bliss ; if yon do, experience will show you that it never
existed on earth, save in visions, or visionary heads.
Yon will meet with many productions in this garden, which are
charming to the eye, and pleasant to the taste; but they are not all
so. Let me just remark, that you are carry ing into this garden one
of the most di licious and delicate plants in nature—l mean good hu
mor. Don’t drop it or lose it, as many have done soon after they
entered, who seldom, if ever, found it again. It is a treasure which
nothing can make up to you.
V.’henyon get to the end of the first walk, which lasts about thir
ty stops, commonly called honey-moon path, you will see the gar
den open in a vast variety of views; ami here I must caution you
against some productions which are nauseous and noxious, and even
fatal in their tendency to the unwary and ignorant.
There is a low, small plant, which may be seen in almost every
path, called indifl’eience, though not perceived at the entrance. You
will always know when you are near this plant, though you do not
see it, by a certain coldness in the air which surrounds it. Contra
ry to all others, it thrives in cold and dies in warmth. Whenever
you perceive this, change your situation as soon as you can.
In the same path, is often found that ugly yellow flower called
Jealousy, which I wish you never to look at. Turn from it as fast
as possible; for it has the strange quality of tingeing the eye that
beholds it with a stain which it seldom gets rid of.
As yon go io, you will meet with many little crooked paths; but
do not go into them. 1 advise you, as a friend, never to attempt it;
for though, at the entrance of each, is written in large letters, “Zu
the right " when you get in, in nine cases out of ten, you will find
the true name to be and that you are tn the wrong and
will not acknowledge ir. This often occasions endless disputes
here, is a source of perpetual difference, and sometimes of a final
separation in the garden.
Near tins spot, you will meet with n sturdy, knotty plant, called
Obstinacy, bearing a hard, bitter fruit, which becomes fatal when
taken in large quantities. Turn from it—avoid it as you would the
plague.
Jost opposite to this, grows that lowly, lovely shrub, ComfAiancc;
which, though not pleasant to the palate, is salutary and sweet, and
produces the most delicious fruit in the garden. Never be without
a sprig of it in your hand—it will often be wanted, as you go along;
if you do not, you will surely repent the want of it.
All over the garden you may find a useful plant, called Economy.
It is of a thriving qualify : take a good stock of it as you go in. It
adorns and enriches at the same time. Many entirely overlook it:
some despise it, and others think they do not want. It is generally
forgotten in the hurry and gaiety with which people e iter this place;
hut tiie total want of it is commonly paid for with bitter repentance.
I must tell you, unless both partake of it, it will answer little end to
either. You may, if you please, carry some with you into the gar
den ; but, it is a hundred to one, if you do not lose it in going in.
This is more useful than what you will find there, for it is of another
sort. Provide yourself and partner with a proper quantity of it, as
soon as you can, when in the place.
You observe, as you pass, two or three paths, which run much in
to one another—l mean those of Regularity, Exactness, and Neat
ness. Do not think, as many do, that when once you are in, you
may be careless of your person anil dress. Remember, your com
panion may see some that are not so—this indifference will strike
his eye, if not offend it. Enter those paths almost as soon as you
entei the garden; and, take my word for it, if you do, yon will ne
ver get out of them. Ouco fairly in, you are in for life; and the
worst of it is, that if you do not find them soon, you will never find
them afterward.
Near this walk is found that invaluable shrub, Humility. This,
though of no worth in itself, yet joined to other good qualities, is
worth them all put together. It is never sect) without being admir
ed ; and is most amiable when not visible. They say “ virtue is its
own reward.” I am certain pride is its own punishment. Flee
P. L. KOEINSON, PROPRIETOR.
from it as from a contagion, which it strongly resembles. It infects
and coirupts. Cultivate, with all your care, the humble plant now
mentioned, as the best axtidote against this poisonous weed.
Allow me here to drop a hint on the subject of cultivation, as that
most probably will be your employment. Should yon be entrusted
with the rearing of a flower, remember two things: first, that it is
but a flower, however fair—frail in its nature, and fading at every
blast; and, secondly, that it is a flower in trust, for the cultivation
of which yoifare accountable to the owner of the gaiden.
Should you be a witness to a blast on its dawning beauties, oli,
how your fluttering heart will bleed with tenderness. Let affection
sympathise. Your feelings may be conceived, but they cannot b<«
described. The young shoot will naturally and insensibly twine
around the fibres of your frame. Should it live end thrive, spare no
pains to teach the young production how to rise. Weed it, water
it, prune it—it will need them all. Without this, many weeds will
grow up, and poison the very soil on wlrch it grows.
Remember, this is a trust for which you are accountable to Him
who gave it. That you may be blest with the sw.'otcst productions
of this garden—that they may bo the delight of your eyes, and that
you and they, when the summer of this life is over, may be trans
planted to some happier soil, and flourish in immortal vigor, in per
fect and pci manent felirity. is the sincere wish of your affectionate
friend.
A Friend to Female Merit.
Family Affection some families there appear to exist but
liitle natural feelings among the members fir one another. We

he has no dollar to spare for the playmate of his early’vears who

The one, perchance, wlio was the fondest and most beloved in early

Few parents realize how much their children may be taught at
home, by devoting a few hours to their instruction everyday. 0 Let
a parent make the experiment with his son of ten years old, for a
single week, and only during the hours which are not spent in
school. Let him make a companion of his child, converse with him
familiarly, put to him questions, answer enquiries, communicate
facts, the result of his reading observation, awaken his curiosity, ex
plain difficulties, the meaning of things, and all this in an easy play
ful manner, without seeming to impose a task, and he will himself be
astonished at the progress which will be made.— [Eedgefield Adver

The Day of Judgement.— lt is a very singular scene which the
day of Judgement will pn sent before the understanding. Then,'
and for the last time, will men appear together under the character
which they have borne in this life, standing-once for all in the same
relations towards each other, and surrounded once more and for a
moment with all the artificial distinctions of society. Kings with
their crowns, and warriors with their swotds, and rich men with
their riches, and the noble with his birth, and the philosopher with
his wisdom, (but all with their sins,) shall come forth from the
equality of the grave, and for a single hour of judgment be again
separated from the common m%ss of mankind, and regarded as su
periors to the rest of their fellow creatures. But as superior in
what I Not as it is here in the indulgence shown to their errors
and the flattery poured upon their folly, and their number and,
greatness of their various privileges; but only in tho extent of their
influence and the multitude and magnitude of their duties. In tho
life that now is, it is the luxury of wealth, and the victory of the
sword, and the dominion of power, and the dignity of birth, and
the name of wisdom, more honorable, but as vain as them all, that
move the envy and emulation of man. But in the life and judge
ment that are to come, it is the responsibility of the crown, and
the responsibility of war, and the responsibility of riefigs, «nd the
responsibility of birth and power, and of wisdom, that will alone
engage the human thoughts; and nil transitory glories will be lost
in the remembrance of that fearful reckoning which this responsi
bility entails.
Bettek Days. —Better days arc like Hebrew verbs—t’’ov have
l they are of the past nr future only. “All that*s
bright must fade,” says 1 oin alum., Vrr* Uk.-ly * and so must all
that’s not bright. To hear some people talk, you would imagine
that there was no month in the year except November, and that the
leaves had nothing else to do than to fill off the trees.—And to refer
again to Tom Moore’s song of “ Stars that shine and fill,” one might
suppose tint, by this time, all the stars in heaven had been blown
out. like so many farrhing caudles in a show booth at Bartlemy fuir;
and as for flowers and leaves, if they go away, it is only to make
way for new one Them are as many stars in heaven as ever them
were in the memory of man, and as many flower* on earth, too, and
perhaps tnotc in England, for they are always makingfresh importa
tions. Some croakers remind me of one of the bovs who said that
his grandmother went up stairs nineteen lime* a day, and never camo
down agaoi. Or, to sek for another resemblance, they may be li
kened to the Irish grave-digger who was teen one n’gbt looking
about the clmrch-varJ, with a lantern in hi* hand. “ What have
vmtlost, Pat 1” “Oh ! I’ve lost my ianlern I” “ You have your ,
lantern in your hand.” “Oh! but this is a lantern I’ve found, it ia
not the lantern I’ve lost !” Thus it is with men in general, they
think more of tho lantern they have lost than of tl.c one they have
found. 4
MonN’itva.—J’lie best part of the dnv for most purposes—is in a'
great measure lost by most persons. 3’l ere is no question of it. It
uas either lost in sleep—between sleeping and waking—feeble ef
forts to arise—buttoning up at the toilet, or in a statozof trifling in
decision, what to take hold of fiist. Let habit have its dim influ
ence in the case, and there can be no doubt, hut that early morning
is tho most a Jvantagoous time for efforts of an" kind, physical or
mental. What an important part of most people's lives are lost!
Sir Walter Scott’s evidence in anv thing which rela'es ta experience
in great performances will take without re-erve. Ho savs, when I
got over any knotty difficulty in -i stoiy, <r have hid in former
times a passage in a poem, it has always been when I first opened
my eyes that the desired ideas thronged upon me. This is much
the case that I am in the habit of relying upon it, and saying to my
self when nt a loss, “ we shall have it six o’clock to-morrow mor-‘
ning.” If I have forgot a circumstance, or a name, or a copy of
verses.it is the same thing. 1 think the fir-t hour of the morning is
favourable also to bodilv strenath. Among other feats, when I was
a young man, I was able to lift a smith’s anvil, by what is called
the horn ! —but I could only do this before breakfast—and lequired
tny whole strength undimtni bed by the least exertion.
Hearing in An'mals.— Cats and dogs can hear the movements of
tbe’r prey at incredible distances, and that even in the midst of noise
which we should have thought would have overpowered such effects.
Rabbits, when alarmed, forcibly strike the earth with their feet, by
the vibration of wlili h <t,w < tlxvr apprehensions to’btir-
rows very remote. As an instance of the discriminating power of
the err of the elephant, we may mention a circumstance that occur
red in tho memorable conflict of shooting the maddened elephant at
Exeter ’Change. After the soldiers had discharged thirty balls, he
stopped and deliberately sunk on his haunches. Mr. Herring, con
ceiving that a shot had struck him in a vital part, cried out, “He’s
down, boys! he’s down !” and so he was, only for a moment. Ho
leapt up with renewed vigor, and at least eighty balls were succes
sively discharged at him from different positions, before he fell a se
cond time. Previous to this he had nearly brought down the build
ing of Exeter ’Change, bv his furious hinges, flying round his den
with the speed of a racehorse. In the midst of the crash of tim
ber, and the halloing of the assailants, he recognised the voice of
the keeper in his usual cry, “ Cliunch bite ! Chunck bite !" which
was his command to kneel; and the noble animal actually knelt,
and received a volley of balls that terminated his sufl'eting.—[Gard
ner’s Music of Nature.
Cure for Warts.—A subscriber in the Canada says,—When I
was a schoolboy, I had a laige wart upon my thumb. My teacher
told mo to rub the wart well against my front teeth, as soon as I
awoke in the morning, for a number of mornings, and it would soon
disappear. I obeyed him and my wart disappeared in less than
two weeks, without pain, except in the act of rubbing. I may add ■
that I have bad warts at times since, (being now filtv-four years of
age,) and the same means applied for a short time always removed
them.— Genncssec Farmer.
Irish Quotation from Shalcspeare.— \n Irishman, complaining

him as gets hold of my character, robs me of what’s no use to him
at all, and what would Ido viddout it?”
