INTKttKSTINII ANECDOTE, l’uuline dc Moulan, a young lady ol good family in Paris, was deprived o( the friend who had brought her up, and was compelled to look out tor sonic source ut support for herself, She had received a good education, and, having a taste for literature, made an attempt to gain her bread by the use of her pen. She sent various little stories and other contribu tions to several of the newspapers ; but all her pieces were too long or too short, too grave or too light —any thing, in short, but entitled to reception. Had Pauline not possessed uncommon energies, as well as uncommon abilities, she would have ihund it iinjKissihle to fight her way through the briery path that leads to literary suc cess. Many a time and oft, in the solitary chamber, she would cast down her pen in despairing lassitude; but the difficulty of seeing any better mode ol maintenance made her always lift it anew, with reviv ed determination. Her efforts were at length rewarded with something like suc cess. Her essays found lavor with the managers of the periodical paper called the J’ubUcistt, and die became a regular contributor to its pages, being paid lor her labours in such a manner as to maintain herself in comparative comfort. She be came even the object of considerable no tice, and was occasionally an invited mem ber of the literary soirees so common a mong the Parisians. At M. Suurd’s, in particular, a well known member of the world of literature, Pauline met and min gled with many of ttie rising people ol talent, male anti female, in the french metropolis. Things continued thus until Pauline fell ill, and became unable to *ssend her contributions as usual to the l'ub licisle. Unluckily for her, the capital sup plied too many young persons of literary ability to make the cessation ol her la bors a mutter of much consequence to the people with whom she communicated.— But at this moment, a kind though un known assistant slept in to relieve her terrors, and save her from falling a prey to the evils in prospect. One morning, while musing sadly on her state, she re ceived a packet which proved, on being opened, to contain a contribution, in her own line and manner, for the I’ubitchtc. — Jt was accompanied bv a note, in which the writer slated his intention to send her a similar paper at regular intervals, ho ping at the same lime that they might be accepted in place ol her own, until she was well enough to resume her tasks.— The hand writing ol the note and paper were unknown to Pauline, and she could form no guess who was their author.— The promise made was (ultiled, howev er. Articles of a fitting kind were regu larly sent, and they procured lor the voung invalid, from the conductors of the Publicistc, the same remuneration that her own toils had produced. .11l necessary comliirts were thus assured to her iu her illness, and she recovered that health which distress of mind might have other wise aided to keep back. Pauline’s correspondent dropped bis labours when she was enabled to resume her own. It may be imagined that her mind dwell much on this circumstance, and that she longed to know and thank her benefactor. She was not long left in the dark. A pale and slender young man, with a mild and expressive countenance, culled upon her, and modesllv revealed himself as her un known assistant. He was immediately recognised by the young contributor of the Puhticisfc as one whom she bad seen at 31. Suard’s, and who had won for himself the repute of being one ol the most prom ising young men of the day. , lie also had seen her at M. Guard’s, and it was from no common feelings that he had been induced to act ns lias been related. Af ter their first interview, they saw each other again and again, and Pauline soon learned to reciprocate the affection which the other had already conceived lor her. They were married. At this day they live happily with each oilier ; and while the husband fills otic of the highest places in the senate and literature of his coun try, the wife, while holding no ignoble station also in the world of letters, is ele vated high among the matrons of France. Header, the parties of whom we have been speaking are Monsieur and Madame Guizot. The “Letters on Education,” and rttber works of the lallet, show her to he a worthy partner of a statesman and histoiian sodistinguished asM.Guizot. THE CHAMOIS AM) THE VULTURE. I was descending from the Bernardino when lie overtook me; lie was in chase of a chamois that had a few minutes be fore passed bv me with a speed that was almost phantom-like. The creature houn ded 011 like a thing partaking more ol air than earth; and, evading the shots ol its pursuer, it darted onward towards the ice covered rocks, till ii at length came to a stand on the verge of a precipice, to whice I could riot have believed any crea tore without wings could have attained. But there it stood, with its lace turned towards the spot where J and the hunter were standing, butting with its horns as if defying him to approach. It was even now scarcely out of gun shot; and the peasant, unw'lling to lose the last chance that was left him of obtaining the object of bis whole day’s toil, crept onward up the apparently tottering precipices, cl ail with ice, as stealthily as if be was walk ing upon down, or the soft heather, lie was just taking a fatal aim at his intend ed victiiin, when a lammergheyer wasun-j expectedly seen soaring through the air, his eyes fixed upon the chamois, who, in fancied security, had just laid its toil-worn frame down upon the frozen surface of the rock to obtain a few minutes’ rest. It was a flue sight to view the wheeling of this tribute-levying bird - of prey as he ap proached the animal, who was as agile on the rocks as his steel-pinioned enemy was in the air; and it was one as thrilling to behold the repeated attempts at escape of the terrified chamois, who had no sooner beheld the approach of the lammerghey cr than it evidently trembled with terror, and in desjieraiion (lew with the speed ol lightning across the rugged plain of fro zen snows, rushed on from peak to peak, reached a projection that shelved over an abyss that was too fearful for even a poor pursued creature to venture to leap over; and then no alternative was left hut the defiance of his leathered ene my face to face. One would have thought that the apex of those steep, sharp sum mits would have been a barrier to the pro gress of any animal; but the chamois seems in some instances to bear, like Macbeth, a half-charmed life; and the native of a stern-featured country, the creature, partaking ol its sternness, grap ples sor > supremacy both with vultures and mankind. The scene now became exciting. The chamois, in a state ol trepidation, paused upon a projection that looked in the distance as pointed as a needle. It was the citadel of his hopes; the last resource it had to look to. To leap to the next pinnacle of rock was impossible; to dart forward below was certain destruction. The natural instinct of the animal now made him place him self on the defensive; and the lammer glieyer, like an exulting tyrant, seemed to gloat on the defenceless stale ol his inten ded victim, isolated as it was, the cham ois still displayed a proud spirit. It faced its adversary boldlv; and the vulture, see ing the movements, was compelled to re sort to something like a ruse dc guerre to accomplish the object it had in view, h wheeled round and round in the air, like a huge atom that had obtained the privi lege of space; and it feigned to swoop to | wards the poor victim, who parried these false attacks w ith bis horns, and appeared to be resolved to sell bis life as dearly as possible. The chamois now was evident ly in a stale of desperation. It parried these false attacks with its horns, but they struck only the air; (lie lammergheyer frightened, but did not strike the chamois; the latter butted in vain against its steel springed, feathered adversary, f<»r, with the advantage of wings, it had the power to recede at pleasure from every attack. The. chamois was evidently on its guard ; but bis very posture,of defence rendered his position extremely critical, and the vul ture, whose watchful eyes were ever fixed upon the animal, swooped down, and by one stroke of its w ing forced it to the ex treme verge of the precipice, and then with another stroke the chamois was hurled down into the depth below, followed by the lammergheyer, who with his beak gave the death-stroke to the trembling creature, and then proceeded to feast upon its body and its blood. It was a long time before the voracious bird arose from its repast; and when it did, it w inged on heavily and slow ly over our beads. My companion, the hunter, took arm steadily at him as lie passed, and not without effect whether the wound was deadly, I know not; but the flight of the vulture was mo mentarily impeded, and it sunk, rather than fell, into one of the deep chasms that intersected the mountains. I sighed for the fate ofthe poor chamois, thus torn from its home on the trackless wastes ol snow where with eyes fine as those ol flic gaz elle, and agility nearly equal to that ol the antelope, it had enjoyed its birthright, li berty, roamed unmolested over rocks I hat man would vainly have attempted to climb and as it quailed its pure draught from the pellucid Alpine stream feared not the ri fle of the hunter, nor the attack of the “playmates us the mountain-storm.” Fmm the N. O. Herald. THE NEGRO WHIGS OF BOSTON. Will not every Bostonian’s blood, who may lie resident in the South, boil w ilb in dignation when he sees negro suffrage in his native city acknowledged and ap plauded by the leading Whig organ of that city? The Boston Atlas, of Tuesday Nov. J 2, speaking of the vote of the city of Boston, says: “Ward Five has done well, as it always does. So, too, has Ward Six; thunks to our colored brethren in that ward, who con tended most, mot^'ully for the B hig cause, anil ruled, almost to a man, the, whig ticket," From the records of crime in that city on the same day we find this confirmation in another paper: Boston Police Court — Tuesday—Charge of illegal voting. —John R. Taylor colored man, was brought up on complaint ol Gy rus Foster, for illegal voting in Ward <i, on Monday, he, by reason of non-ptymeut of taxes, not being qualified to vote. Ex ' animation postponed. Is it possible that fanaticism in Boston and the mockery of English benevolence arc about to consummate the deed of amal gamation between races which the Crea tor has separated by the great seals of “Topaz and Ebony,” stamped upon the skin, burnt into the features, bruised into the skull, and crooked into the shin bones' The senses given to all by the God of na ture forbid this union of the races in the same contiguity on terms of equal rights. Sight, taste and smell in both races rebel against such an outrage against nature. Admitted to vote in Boston someone of these Whig negroes will hereafter demand to be the Presidential candidate of bis party. But that and tluit together . — lu the great Whig procession in N. V. city some 50 or 100 good looking fellows followed a ban ner with this motto —“ Bachelors till after the election of Harry of the West.” — Some ladies in Kentucky paraded at a! Whig festival under, the banner of “ Whig-, gery or no husbands!” As both parties are somewhat disappointed, perhaps they may compromise by meeting half way. Another Democratic Triumph. —The re cent municipal elections in the city' of Sa vannah, have resulted in favor of the de mocratic candidates, by a majority’ for the Mayor of 51, and an average majority of! 137 for Aldermen. Tin: many-headed •ti.ot." .Not even die fabled hydra of old, had as many heads and venomous tangs, as have been attributed to the “lcxas plot. The first alarm w as, that, the r< -acquisi tion of our lost territory ol lexas would wound Mexico in a ‘tender part, and cause an immediate declaration of war. Next, it was said that Knglaud would take umbrage, in the event ol annexation : asil England bad any right to “open her mouth’ in affairs w hich dkfnot concern her. Then the alarm was sounded that the ‘plot would annihilate the tree States, dissolve die Union, and increase slavery. All these i alarms have been hushed by the force of calm, unanswerable arguments, and we presume that none of them will be revived with any expectation of opposing the will ol the majority ol the People, now distinct ly pronounced in favor of the measure, in the elevation of one ot its cbiel advocates to the Presidency. But alarms have been sounded in other quarters, and in so mysterious a way, that we are at a loss what arguments to use to soothe the temtied victims, that wc ve ry much fear that no interposition within i our power can save them. Little did we | deem that “this diabolical Texas {dot’ w as designed to blow up certain individuals, and much less those iu an humble capaci ty, or at least not aspiring to any elevated positions iu the Government. We must 'confess that it never occurred to us once, that Mr. Ada ins‘would be destroyed by the agitation ofthe subject, or in very pity we should have bad nothing to do with this ‘deep-laid [dot’ we have the evidence ol Mr. Adams himscll; in Ins famous Bridgewater speech, to prove it, us lol lowct li : “ I saw dear enough that -faron Yail Brown’s publication was a deep-laid plot lor toy destruction; but not till the publi cation {of diaries .1. IngersoU’s views ol the Texas question, that it bad been four teen vears in the breeding, and that it was also a plot for breeding war with England.’ The reader of course understands ‘Aa ron Vail Brown’s publication’ to be the patriotic letter ol General Jackson in favor ol the: immediate annexation ol Texas; and we have not tlie slightest doubt but that Mr. Adams ever since he cheated his competitor out of the Presidency, in I ''2b, lias bad a presentiment that the old hero was destined to‘destroy’ him for it. No doubt lie is haunted in his sleep, with vi sions dire, even threatening terrible ven geance lor the injustice perpetrated on the occasion alluded to. Every new measure that is proposed, cvciy old one condem ned—everv speech delivered, or letter published, causes Mr. Adams to tremble in fear of a “deep-laid plot.’ Stjuaniis j a.stantibus U'/pii. From Mr. Ingersoll’s indomitable spirit anti resolution never to tolerate a plot on the fair escutcheon of his country, to gra tify the insolent pretensions of Great Bri tain, whether urged under the pretence of I philanthropy, and by an ex-l’resident as 1 her chosen champion, or by the force ol arms, Mr. Adams lias become convinced that this Representative from Pennsylva nia is bent on bis “destruction,” and lias been engaged in ‘a plot for breeding a war with England.’ \\ e presume that the des truction of Mr. Adams, will he enough of itself\ to make England declare war against us. But we are not vet done with the hor rors of this hydra-headed ‘plot,’ and the celebrated Jackson letter. It was not to be content with the destruction of Mr. Adams, but, like the famous ‘gunpowder plot,’ it was to blow up si whole bouse full of sages and pnliiots. Even Mr. Benton, who has j ist escaped from the explosion on board the l’riuccton. was to be ‘blown |sky-high’ by diis contrivance. Hear him in his Bloomvdlc speech : # * * * “He had denoun ced it long before to many persons, and ’particularly at die late session of Congress I to Mr. Aaron Y. Brown, a member of Con gress from Tennessee, who had vicarious ly obtained the Texas letter from General Jackson, and who seemed to be vicarious ly charged with some enterprise on him self. There is a coincidence for you. What crime had Mr. Benton ever committed, that he should be ‘charged upon’ with |some enterprise'? John Quincy Adams, and Thomas Hart Benton, blown up by the same bomb ! “All things were full of terror and afliight. And dreadful e’en ihe silence of 1 lie night.” Madisonian. A. cure for Pulmonary complaints. The following recipe is not intended to be a cure for a confirmed consumption, but I | assure your readers, from my own repeal ed observations ol its effects, that it will relieve many pulmonary complaints not easily to be distinguished in their symp toms from a consumption, and which, if neglected would prove fatal. Let the patient early every morning, while in bed, drink half a pint of milk, warm from the cow, in which atable spoon ful of honey and a table spoonful of French brandy—or, if that cannot be bail, of other !spirits, has been lirst mixed, let him then remain in bed one hour after drinking it. It will cause a gentle perspiration, pro mote an easy expectoration, relieve the cough, and in a few weeks restore him to perfect health. Many have been by’ this means restored to health, after having long in vain tried remedies prescribed by able physicians. I feel desirous to com municate this remedy to the public, in order that others, similarly afflicted, may avail themselves of it.— Virginia Valley Star. .1 relic of the, battle fold. —The New <>r lea ns Courier of the Bth say’s —“ We this morning saw a bayonet imbedded in a thick root of a tiee, which was dug up some feet under ground, on the field of battle below the city. It is a rare curios ity and well worth seeing. It is Mr. 'Bay lor’s intention to present it in a glass case to General Jackson.” THE REPI BLIC. “Government derives it* just powers, not from the au thority of Killers, hut from the consent ofthe Governed MACOy, DECEMBER 11, 1544. < OTTOV MARKET.

Wc regret, deeply and sincerely regret, the disposition indicated by a certain por tion of the democratic party as soon as the result of the late election was known, to make our recent victory bend wholly to the advancement of particular men and cliques. The result was scarcely known ; before a set of May-day democrats, men whose principles have always hung about them like a loose robe—chiefly the parti sans of Mr. Wright, in New York and elsew here, began to claim lor that gentle man the highest merit for his services in die late campaign, as well as the right to die succession in IS4 S . Now we contend that this is all wrong, and of the worst and most debasing tendency, come from the partisans of what man it may ; for il i the next four years io come are to In- spect in Piesidcnt-making and cam using by the leading men ot the party, the Iruits of the late Democratic vietoiy, achieved by the people, will turn to ashes on their bps. Before proceeding further, however, it inav be well to state that we are not tin partisan of anv clique. \\ e arc no man’s man. We are neither anew light nor an old hunker iu the common acceptation of these terms. Our principles are derived from authorities older, and far higher, than either of these. The resolutions ol ’lP's and ’99, and the Republican dot trines generally, promulgated by Jefferson and his illustrious compeers, are the tenets of our political faith; and, while we deem it our duty to bold ourselves unembarrass ed for the present, at least so far as this or that man is concerned for the succes sion, wc cannot but condemn the attempt in others to fort-stall public opinion by prematurely urging the claims of any man i upon the people. For their choice, as well as ours, and every other honest Dcmo !oral in the country, must lie determined by die future course of men and parties. In the particular case before us, however, so far at least as the South and the parlv igeneially, baring the Albany regency, is concerned, we arc at a loss to know how, without degrading itself by renouncing the great issues upon which the late battle was fought and won, can they ever sup port Silas \V right lor the Presidency ; | whenever the party does that its situation will he as humiliating and pitiable as that of die whigs ot Georgia is at present. Tliev will have degraded themselves bv abandoning liieir iormer principles, and lie beaten under the lead of a man w hom they could not support w ithout degrada tion. The moment we come to be de pendent upon the success of this or that aspirant for the maintenance of our prin ciples, that moment we become slaves; or at least have taken the initiatory steps at becoming the willing subjects of some artful political demagogue. This is a state of things w hich neces sarily exists iii the political corruptions of the old world; and which, to a great ex tent in the history of both political parties in this country of late years, has struck its poisonous roots in the new. Bui it is in compatible with the genius of free insti tutions, and at war with the spirit of re publican liberty. For ourselves—and in this we believe we speak the honost sen timents of a large majority of the Demo cratic party™we would almost as soon support for the Presidency any whig that could be named, Wei sler and Adams ex cepted, as Silas Wright. Jn view of the issues upon which the late victory has been achieved, w ill) his well known views upon the tariff and Texas questions, where is the Democrat that could support Silas Wright? Fel low countrymen, watch him well! This is the mail who when the lute nomination I was made at Baltimore, taunted James K. Polk with being a fourth rate man, and joined heartily w'ith the whigs in the sneer ing enquiry “who is James K. Polk?”; j Besides, it is well known that the parti sans of Wright and Van Buren in the .State of New York, until overwhelmed by the friends of Mr. Polk, meanly at tempted to embarrass the success of the Democratic nominations, because it ok! not accord with their own personal views, by disseminating secret circulars anil oth er documents, against the admission of Texas into the Union, and the action of the Democratic Convention upon that question. In the face of all this, these very men arc now claiming all the honors of the lute victory for themselves, and auda ciously thrusting upon the country at this early day, the claims of Mr. Wright for the succession. But 't will not do. The people enter ed upon the great issues which the lute election decided, with far higher and no bler view's than mere President making; and u'e have been long satisfied that in order to secure to them the objects of their recent great political achievement, we would he compelled, after beating the Whigs, to hold a plain family talk among ourselves. The present is an auspicious time; more so than any that has present ed itself for years, to lop from the party j and east prone to the earth a class of politicians in New York, who like the base mercenary, have always held their swords ready to fight for the man or party that pays best. Il was the treachery of such men—the ultia notions and time-serving spirit of this vampire-crew, unfortunately quartered upon the country during Mr. Van Buren’s administration, that over whelmed our principles in IS4O. 11 we would avoid such a result in future—it the ascendancy and harmony of our prin ciples are of any value—if we are deter mined to embrace the truth, and if all our pledges were not fuliacous deceptions, we will not fail to profit by the mortifying experience of the past. The people, too, have a right and will expect something more than a barren sceptre from this victo ry. They expect a healthful, safe, and well-balanced administration ol the gov-, eminent. Before God and the country, die real issues upon which this election turn'd, was the annnexation of Texas to the Union, and the adjustment of the pre sent oppressive tariff to a revenue stan dard. And while patriotism and justice alike demand a speedy settlement of these questions, we are fully persuaded that nothing short of this consummation will satisfy the great Democratic’pnrty of the 'South. In the beady lush for office we well know that there are men at the South now, as there has been in times past, who are willing to giv e a monopoly of the priv ileges and benefits of the government to the people of the North, in return for the * petty trappings of eftieial public station. But the people of the country have long, too long submitted to the tyranny and in justice in the American System, and are |determined that it shall come to an end. And the day is not distant when the South, like the dead body of Caesar “marred by »* ...ni .. ...i,;..i. „.,n traitors, will start a spirit winch will move true heaits loi vengeance and re dress. James K. folk has been elected President under circumstances the most favorable- to the speedy restoration ol the j government to its true principles. He is not indebted cither for his nomination or election, to any faction nr clique, but to the unbought suffrages of his countrymen, and to principles openly avowed and cleailv defined, lie will tin relbre entei upon the discharge ol his official duties 'unembarrassed, tree to administer the go vernment upon the true principles of con stitutional Democracy, and may, il he choose make himself the most popular Chief Magistrate the Union has had tor vears. It is a most favorable time, too, to call into active exercise the high quali ties of the statesman, as well as tin- inde pendence of the true patriot. By him the sweeping tide ol tariif innovation and aristocratic monopoly which have been silemlv but surely washing away the ba sis ol our political fabric, may l»e turned j back to its source, and stayed hy an im passable harrier. By him schemes of legislation, which, under delusive names have been chang ing the character of our government and hastening the consolidation ot our system of sovereignties into an jumitigled mass of empire, to become the pre-v of u..bri dled ambition or scllish gain, may he for ever overthrown. By him, landmarks for popular rights and republican institutions may lit- estab lished, which will stand as guides for the legislation of ages to come, it lie is true to the great principles involved in the late contest. It is upon this high calling and the consummation ol such measures as these, that the Democratic party of the country should now enter —not President making. C01.0M21. m:\TON. w c have been delighted with ihe cui and thrust method of the.Madisonian in its deadly assaults upon the great “poliii eal despeiado.” Let him have it! Not a lick amiss. He is and has been a pe trifying sore upon the parly, and the soon er the loathsome excrescence is exsiccated the better. After he heard the results of ihe Balti more Convention he roared like a wild bull writhing under the plunges of the hunter’s knife. It was then, in ihe phreu zy of disappointment, that lie denounced the Convention in ihe most unmeasured terms. “Vile intriguers, Texas humbug gers, land pirates! Men who in nominat ing Mr. Polk, bad nullified ihe choice of the people, [oh granny!] and the rights of the people, [shade of Brutus!! and ilie principles of our government in the person of Mr. Van Buren!!” Oh, thou great em bodiment, how neivous you are! Dead as a herring! No more cavoriings now, Colonel, for “love lies bleeding” and now the “stricken deer” may weep a! its leisure. But seriously, we hardly know which feeling predominates, disgust at the con temptible builyisrn and arrogant domi neering bragadocia bearing of Colonel Benton, or indignation at the cold, heart less and sneering tone of Senator Wright. Tht? one swore such a smuggling of Presi dents into office ‘ought not so to be’! And the oilier with a contemptuous shrug ’of the shoulders, turned on Lis heel and cut straight tor Linden wold. What he did there, and what lie said there, is it not written in the voluminous records now' on file in the juirafe library of" the ancien regime'/ But we forbear lor the present. Four years hence, should wc be alive and well, we shall write, speak and circulate i our opinion, freely anil unreservedly, on the subject ol President-making, and add our mile to another rile intrigue which we hope will result in convincing Col. Ben ton that we can boast of more than one Cato in this Republic. INTERCOI RSG WITH MEXICO.

To establish her right to bear, in the i centre ofthe gallant and stern phalanx of ib-publican Sovereignities, their victori ous banner so inscribed, it may be salc-lv estimated that her electoral vote is to he given by the will ofan actual popular ma jority ofoo,ooo.
