“ WHERE SHALL 1 GO?” Thus soliloquised, ala IVebster, a loaf er last night, on tilings in general and liis own peculiar position in particular. “ Where shall 1 go ?—aye, that’s the po ser, ns Shakspenre says. There aint no place for me to go, as I knows on. Mus quitcr liars aint portable, and my nose jiossesses some how, the magnetic or at tractive principle for flies.—The Bar rooms is all closed, and lodgin’ house [icople don’t give no tick. The doctors gay it aint constitutional to sleep on the side walk, and the watchmen agrees with the doctors. I aint passionately fond of drink, yet a fellow couldn’t affront me nt the present time by asking me to liquor. Some folks want a bank, ’cause they say it's awk’ward to carry their specie. 1 doesn’t labor under momentary ditlicul ties of this kind myself; I’d willingly become any body’s pet bank for a fair re muneration. I’m a cussed shabby k’rac ter, take me as you will. My toggery, like an empty barrel exposed to the sun, is a failin’ to pieces. If torn coats were fashionable, wouldn't I be a swell—ohfj Reckon I would. But I’s a bisolated in- J dividual, and haint no one to give me pari J of their bed. ‘ Wlicre shall igo?’ 1 ask i again” “To the watch house most indubita-j My,” said Charley, who at length put nj period to the Websterian soliloquist’s l further reflections by taking him off to the calaboose. — Picayune. Life and its cares. —ln all this widej world there is nothing but suffering ; ilie I child cries in its cradle ; it but begins as! it will continue, in all ranks there is the) same, overpowering misery: the poorj man has all the higher faculties of bis be-| ing absorbed in a perpetual struggle with I cold and hunger ; a step higher, andfre-j tence comes to aggravate poverty ; dig we | cannot, and to beg we are ashamed. Coj on into what are called the higher classes j and there" we find ambition the fever of the soul, but there is no relish fir them,' and luxuries which have become as wen-! risnme as wants. The feelings arc cither: dull in selfish apathy, that exclude enjoy-j meat, or unduly keen, till a look or word j is torture. Then your philosophers, your j poets, your men of science—what do they do but spread breathing and healthful life j on wasting pursuits, in which the very j success only shows how worthless it is to] succeed ? The mind feeds upon the] body’s pale sickness, and early rlecrepi-j Uule, overmasters even its spiritual es-; sence- Too late it discovers that this] earth is its prison, and not its home : ihoj heart beats, and its pulses are the clock work of wretchedness ; the head exam-1 inns only to find that all is void and worth- I loss; Poetic at.. — The following is the con clusion of a notice of Ole Hull’s first con cert at the Melodenn, by Boston Atlas ; “Who can trace the lightning’s course,] as it flashes in terror on the beholder, or' gives its fitful glimmer on the distant clond ? Who can paint the whirling storm cloud, as it rushes, in fearful maj esty, across the Heavens, or throws hack its lovely colors, at the selling sun ? Who'can describe the fickle wind that prostrates the mighty oak in its terrific passage, or sighs onward in the breath of summer ? Who then shall tel! of the beautiful creations anti existencies rising in quick succession, at the bidding of the master mind presiding over the lovely hut intangible form of music !” Or, allow ns to ask (says the Post) who can tell how long a cat can chase her tail without becoming dizzy, and tumbling over ? A Cousins Lips. —The lips of a pretty cousin, says the Ricbmoud Star, are a sort of neutral ground, between a sister’s ami a stranger’s. If you sip, it is not because you love nor exactly because you have the right, nor upon grounds Platon ic, nor with the calm satisfaction that you buss a favorite sister. Tt is a sort of ho ;us pocii3 commingling of all, into which Jacli feeling throws its part, until the con catenation is thrilling, peculiar, exciting,! delicious, and emphatically slick. This s as near to a philosophical analization as we can well come. All the girls are] the editors’ cousins. Sheri Jan anil the Coalman. —Mr. Mitch ell, who supplied Sheridan with coals, had a heavy demand against him, long outstanding, and for which he was bent upon waiting no longer. Mr. Dunn, there fore, finding remonstrance useless, under-' took to pilot the coal merchant to Sherid-* an’s residence, in Hertford street, and to usher him into the manager’s presence. Mitchell attacked Sheridan mercilessly, accused him of having treated him shame fully, and swore he would not leave the house without the whole of his money. As the amount was several hundred' pounds, and Sheridan had not as many,! shillings, compliance was more easily de- : : mandeil than obtained, and it was conse-'| quently necessary to resort to stratagem — 'j with what success this dialogue will de termine. Sheridan—“ True, my dear B#b, true all you say ; I’m really very sor ry, but l say, Bob, you don’t want it all to day, hey ? wont a part do ?” Mitch ell—“ No, sir, it wont —I will have it all— I must— I dam’t go home without every farthing of it. My wife is distracted, my v house is beset with creditors, ruin is star ing mein the face, and I will not leave 1 this room without my money.” Sherid an—“ Come, come, Bob, you’re rather hard upon me—to be sure, you have drawn a distressing picture, and I am much concerned by it—wouldn’t half ando 1 today, and a bill for the remainder—hey, /lob, ?” “ Aot a farthing less than my whole bill, Mr. .S’heridan ; ns I said be fore I dare not show my face at home without it.” Sheridan- -(pausing and then apparently much moved) —Then would to Heaven 1 could assist you ! J cannot—but (here be took a deep dip into j his po&kcl) one thing 1 can, I will, I ought ,to do —there (taking Mitchell’s hand, and (shaking it, and putting something in it,) there, never let it he said that while Sher idan has a guinea in his pocket, he refus ied it to his friend Bob Mitchell." Sheri . dan seemed agitated, Mitchell stood a [ "hast for a minute or two, then carefully lucked up the guinea in a corner of his ; leather breeches pocket, forgot his wrongs, and with the familiar expression of “ Bob" ringing in his ears, lie bolted out of the house, and to the latest hour of his life was 'in an occasional moment of enthusiasm, fond of displaying the last guinea his friend Sheridan had in the world.” This is, perliapsf, the greatest feat Sheridan ev er did, except when he softened an attor j ne}’. OoCRTSUIr OF A BaSHFUI. Cr.F.ROVMAX. The Rev. John Brown, of Haddington, j the well-known author of the Self-Inter ; preting Bible, was a man ot'singuiar basb i fulness. In token of the truth of thisstnte inent, I need only state that his courtship lasted seven years. Six years and a half passed away, and the reverend gentleman had got no further forward than he had been the first six days. This state of things became intolerable; a step in ad vance must he made, and Mr. Brown sum moned all his courage lor the deed. “Ja net,” said lie, ns they sat one night in sol emn silence, “we’ve been acquainted now for six years nn’ inair, and I’ve ne’er go - ten a kiss vet; d’ve think I might take one, my bonnie girl ?” “Just as you like, John; only he becoming and proper wi’it.” Sure ly, Janet; we’ll ask a blessing.” The blessing was asked 1 the kiss was taken, and the worthy divine, perfectly overpowered with the blissful sensation, most raptuously exclaimed, “Oh, woman, but it is guile— we’ll return thanks. Six months made the pious couple man and wife, “and,” added his descendant, who humorously told ihetale, “a happier | couple never spent a long and useful life j together.” Odd All Round. —The Portland Ad vertiser says: —“A handsome barque of some 216 tons burden,called the Odd Fel low, built by Odd Fellows, and owned by a company of Odd Fellows, is to tie launch ed the latter part of this week. She has been rigged on the stocks, and will he launched with sales, boat cargo and pro visions, on hoard—in every respect ready for sea, and as soon as she is clear of her ways, will set sail for Freeport, and thence for Apalachicola.” A Man torn to Pieces by a Horse.-- A man named Murphy, on Monday, was killed by a stalion near Kill county, Wa terford. The man was turning off the [highroad into the field, to make a short | cut, though advised loturn back, or else he might he killed by a wild horse he would have to pass. Fatally for himself, he tried the “forbidden ground.” Jn four hours after, his body was found lorn to pieces. The horse’s hoofs and mouth were encrus ted with the blood of his victim.—Phila delphia rimes.

Besides the sun port of the general principles of the Democratic creed, this paper will ever lie found the strenuous advocate ol southern rights and southern interests in opposition to the mad schemes of northern Inna’ tics and foreign emissaries—will urge the afititra lion of Texas as a measure of vital importance the welfare of the whole Union, and will sedu lously labor, that the great conservative principle of the Constitution—the Veto Power— may be perpetuated in that instrument as the great s'heet anebor of our political safety. In Stale politics* the “Democrat,” will be the bumble co-worker I with kindred prints in advancing the honor ami interests of the commonwealth; and in the came paign of the ensuing year, will Ire prepared to | battle manfully on the side of the People afra j nst Federal misrule and Federal tyranny, under what-' l ever disguise. 11.

November 1,1844- PROSPECTUS For Publishing in the City oj tVasUinglon, a Dem ocratic Newspaper to be called the COJYS TMTIf Ti 0»Y. I The undeisigned, having purchased the ntaleri | als ol The Spectator, will issue, on or before the I 10th i list .the first number of anew paper to be sal lied “The Constitution.” It will be devoted to | the steady advocacy of that system of measures | which will prevent unimpaired the sacred instrir : ment front which ve borrow the name; and as con stantly oppose whatever is not sanctioned by it. We shall unceasingly opjmse a National Bank—a Protective Tariff—lnternal Improvement by the General Government—a Distribution of the Pro ceedsofthe sales of the Public Lands—Assump tion ol the State Debts—an abrogation of the Ex ecutive Veto, as unconstitutional ami inexpedient. We hojie to make tire paper worthy of the con fidence and support ol the Democratic party. It shall he the faithful expositor of their principle*, sum the ever ready medium to convey their sen it l meats and wishes to the public. The Democratic I cause, is the cause ol truth and justice. It courts I the light. It shuns no investigation. And we are I determined to see whether a paper, conducted with ( a devotion to the principles, rathet than to tlismea iof our party—to further the great cause of human i progress, rather than the mere advancement of Par ticular individuals, will not commend itself to the j confidence and favor of the people. As so in as.the nil etigrositig topics of the elect inns jare over, we shall devote a liberal portion ol'onrcnl j 'nans to subjects of general literature and science; endeavoring to present such matter as will amuse, , instruct, and edify. The proceedings of Congress will receive parti cular attention, and a full and comprehensive sum i mary will he given, including the yeas and naysup- Lin ail important questions. 1 The paper, lor the present, will be issued semi i weekly during the recess, and daily during theses [sionsof Congress, at Five Dollars per annum, in advance. W. A. HARRIS, JNO. HEART. PROSPECTUS OF THE lITIoIH.Y’G TO.V JO IR.X.IL. Having been induced, at the solicitation of some I of the mem hers of the Democratic party, to take | charge of the Republican Press in this place, we will hereafter, on every Friday morning, issue a Democratic paper, under the above title, at the of fice of the late "tYilmivglon Messenger," in the | town of Wilmington. As we have given a brief outline of the ptinri ! pies the “Journal” will advocate in our first num ber we think it unnecessary again to reiterate the political doctrines it will be our constant and enr j nest endeavour to*inculcate. On the present oc casion, therefore, we will merely state, that the j Journal will be the uncompromising opponent of each and every ‘link’ in the whole of the ‘great I chain’ of Whig measures—a United Slates Bank —a Protective Tariff*—the Bankrupt Aci— Inter nal Improvements hv the General Government, Ike. While on the other hand it will, so far as our hunt* \ hie abilities will enable us, tube thefiini Iriendand j supporter of the Constitution as it was left ns by our Fathers; and of a strict construction ol that i Constitution, thereby ensuring the rights of the »- j veral States which compose the Confederacy. But j we set out vvitli the idea of not going into details. It would be a neenlt'Sk !«X >‘P<»’ the readers time, j Suffice it to say, that the Jourd?:! U 1" a cratic paper, and will always advocate Democia 110 I men and Democratic measures. | Although the Journal will be a political paper, 5 yet, in order that it may also be agreeable to the general reader, its columns will always be open t“ such items of intelligence as w ill be interesting to the Fanner, the Merchant, the Mechanic, &.c. Ag , riculture, Trade, the state of the Markets, &c. to-, j gether with a slight glance at polite literature oc casionally, will receive our attention. We hope we will not be considered too ‘personal in our re marks’ when we offer a few suggestions to our friends touching the necessity there exists ( for kee ping on foot a Democratic Press in the Town ot Wilmington. _ . , In the first place, Wilmington is a place ol me greatest Commercial importance ol any iu the am lo it is situated in a Democratic District, there IS ■' great, deal of intercourse carried on by the citistem of the lower portion ol the State with this P» c > and consequently a Press here would becalcula e to do as much good, in diffusing information, ,a perhaps at any other pointln the State. Ag 1 > there are, we believe, three Federal to every Democratic paper in the Slate, and this " e confident, is the reason why NorlhCaroltna pa a Whig in her Gubernatorial Chair at our ru l j election; for we leel assured that it only rfff 1 " .. fair comparison to be instituted between the P • |of the Federal and Democratic parties to e ! liir the latter the most triumphant success, now, it is impossible lor a Press to be kept «P less our friends will patronize it by su s ~ . themselves and inducing others to “g° amJ 1 wise.” For gentle reader, we suppose you ■ I ware, and ifyou are not, we will tell you, £ Printers and Editors arc so lar like other that it requires something more than air , kind wishes to clothe them.
