Unutterable happiness ’ which love 41 me bestows, and on a favour'd few. Thomson. Therreservatio* of a husband’s love is often rno itdifficult,Hß it is always the most deli ydui.v of a mfo.—Galt. o,r design in this little treatise is to en '.‘ of to show that happiness is not only at diut upon the marriage state, but that it 'Vbo obtained by every individual who ,T=es to devote himself to its pursuit— , ,pi D ess is not that shadow, nor is love that ‘Tin which “the million” proclaim them • both are real and substantial enjoy ,T’, which every one has the ability to pos . although but “a favoured few” arc hlesa witb them ; this, however, is entirely the !lt'.of the parties themselves, for though rriatre is the road to happiness, there are ; m .,ny broad and alluring paths that inter ct it that we are not surprised at such a •■ruber of individuals, who had set out with 1C brightest hopes, losing themselves by \e h egdkmess and carelessness with which 'T pursued their journey., Our purpose is make the true road more clear, and by de ribi,,g the duties of individuals in the rel ive situations of husband and wife, and ex ;l'sin <T the errors into which they are ever so -me 3 to fall, produce a guide to that happi , ss which the young bride is ever so desi •oils to obtain. It has been represented, that what is denom -mted “love,” is but a fanciful term for the '•cling of esteem beyond which, they who old this doctrine maintain every thing else o be but idle rhapsody, and empty non use ; they consider that individuals may en rtain a feeling of esteem for each other, , inch encouraged may lead to a matrimonial paioo,the husband taking his wife just as he vmiid a piece of furniture for the decoration ,! the house,and, very likely, with just about ■ much regard! This species of Platonism uy afford a very correct idea to its cold un ■ massioned disciples; but it is very errorle ss; their feeling of esteem being found toex >t no longer than the favourable circuinstan s that attended the union endures. The ;■ itrimenial sympathy should be undying and ] aiperishable; it should maintain its pure ol steady light through all the troubles and Acrsitiesoflife,and expire but with itslatest ath. According to Lady Morgan, “the oman is unworthy of the sacred name of wife hois not prepared to follow the husband of r choice and her affections, to slavery, to ath—oil! more than all, to follow him in true —in ignominy !” •It is rare totind perfection in a single in , vidua!,” observes a popular modern poet; •w much more rare must it be that two :li individuals should meet together in this deworld, under circuinstances that admit ; their union as husband and wife.

It is scarcely po sihle to obtain, that perfect knowledge of character anddispositio . duringthc period of courtship, which is gained after the mystic symbol is placed upon the finger ot the bride. We are blind to each other’s faults—passion hurries us onward, and where we fully expect to repose our affections happily, we only find their grave. This is a subject, however, that we cannot ct present enlarge upon, because the various branches into which it divides, would each claim separate and distinct no tice. We have said that excitement ends, too of ten, upon the wedding day; that after the “knot’ is tied, the parties abate their endeav ours to keep the heart which they had been so desirous of winning. Previously, no pains were spared, no trouble thought too great, to render ourselves more interesting, or more amiable in the opinion of our admirer; but, the object attained, and the individual our own, we become careless and indifferent, ex citement is destroyed, possession throws a veil over former ardour, and finally twines the funeral wreath for love. Convinced that the object of your affections is your own, you be come cold and heedless, the little pleasures and gratifications are more allowed than de lighted in: you cease the attractions of music, dress, and song, which rendered yml endear ed; and when the cause is taken away, the ef fect roust perish with it. Your abilities were exerted to win a heart, and why are they not still exerted to retain it? It is valueless?— Were a stranger to say so, you would instant ly repel the slander with indignation—why, then, do you use the prize as if it were real ly valueless, compelled by fate to be endured rather than bestowed by fortune to be enjoyed ? “It is nature embellished by the advantages of art,” says the author of a popular comedy, “that men expect now a-days; you may have all the qualities that can dispute your bus hand’s heart with any body, but the exertion of those qualities is too often suppressed.— It is much more difficult to keep a heart than win one. After the fatal words, ‘for better or worse,’ the general way with wives is to relax into indolence, and while they are guilty of no infidelity, they think that is enough; but they are mistaken—there is a great deal wanting—an address, a manner, a desire of pleasing. Besides which, the natural temper must he forced; home must be made a place of pleasure to the husband, and the wife must throw infinite variety into her manner. And this I take to be the whole mystery, the way to keep a man. “How many ladies,” observes another pop : ular writer, “heedless of the unsettled and fluctuating state of all human attachments, seem to consider, when they are wedded, that it is no longer requisite to continue those a greeable humors and graces which first won the esteem of their husbands. The triumph of a woman lies not in the admiration of her lover , hut in the respect of her husband : and j can only be gained by a constant cultivation ! of those qualities, which she knows he most values.” The tempers of each othef should be stud ied, and even “forced” to harmonize, and while endeavoring to correct our own faults, 1 we should be indulgent to those of our part ner. Words and differences are but the pre lude to greater discord, and should never for an instant be encouraged. They are very often supported from a strange perversity of nature : we are too proud to yield our opin ion, and to this headstrong folly, both fall vic tims; passion is madness-—opposition is worse. A sullen or sulky disposition is often per sisted in; this is essentially bad, and must be eradicated altogether. If we would enjoy domestic happiness, wc must destroy that ug ly distempered demon which, while it annoys every one with whom we are connected, is a like tormenting to ourselves : how ridiculous it is to sit hour after hour, and (frequently) day after day, knitting our brows and refus ing a kind word to any one around us, ridi culed by some, and pitied, though disliked, by the better disposed. If we feel ourselves aggrieved, why not seek an explanation of the offence, and put an end to the disagreea ble affair? Mute sullennness cannot by any possibility effect any good, we only sit brood ing, till we imagine things that were never for a moment contemplated, work ourselves up to the temper of- something below humanity, and in our burst of anger inflict wounds that no roturning kindness can heal, and wither affections that no sunshine can ever again re store. Such a disposition is productive of se rious evils; our partner will seek happiness unconnected with ourselves—the husband will yield to the greater attractions of society, or the wife seek smiles elsewhere; those whom we have sworn to honor and protect will be driven from the hotne which have been endeared to them—it will become desolate, and we also shall fall victims. There are creatures in society who seem to take a pride in ruining domestic happiness; of those beings wc should he aware; allow no one to say aught to the discredit of your part ner, nor encourage idle taie-henrers; you have surely greater opportunities for discovering faults or follies, and should refuse to counte nance such people, whose greatest pleasure it is to plant the seeds of discord in a family, and foment it, by exaggeration, into a flame that will not be eastly quenched. The London Morning Herald, of May 28, publishes a passage from the remonstrance of the Legislature of Maine against the Dutch King’s decision of the boundary ques tion; and remarks:—The above is certainly a very amusing piece of sophistry, but noth ing more. Still, however, we think the ob jection to the decision urged by the United States’ Minister at the Hague good and valid ; and at any rate we are g* a; ‘ d ,a * the award is not likely to he allowed, being perfectly sat isfied that the boundary pointed out is con trary to the spirit of the treaty, and much against the interests cf Great Britain and her North American provinces. .The disputed territory is now in our possession, and as we believe that we have right on onr side, we would recommend the Government not to part with it., Besides, possession is nine points of the law. MACON. Friday, Atignst 5, I NIJI. “ FOR GOVERNOR q LOOK AT THIS! Georgia, one of the old Thirteen, is beaton by her young sister, Alabama, who has barely yet thrown off her “ bib and tucker.” It was but the other day, comparatively speaking, that she was introduced into the constellation of States that form our happy Union—and yet she lias already broken ground for a Rail Road !—Will Georgia, with such an example, as this before her eyes, remain inactive ? W’e hope not. Tusccmbia, July 2. THE TUSCUMBIA RAIL WAY ! ! ! I he contracts for this work have been let to respectable and enterprising gentlemen at prices much below the most sanguine ex pectations of the company. The clearing and grading from this place to the Tennessee Riv er, a distance of one mile and five eighths has been undertaken by J. & J. Carrutliers at a bout $1,300, making the cost of about S6OO per mile. The company are now able to make a pretty correct estimate and we are as sured that the whole cost for a single tract a ill not exceed $3500, per mile. The work is now progressing.—The ground was broke on Wednesday last, amidst the roar of can non, and in the presence of a number of our citizens both from town and country, who at tended to witness the conunmencement of a work which we doubt not will be extended through the Tennessee valley to some point a bove the Muscle shoals; and if we may haz ard an opinion it will be an improvement of greater utility than any hitherto undertaken in the western country. We understand that the company have or dered their iron from Liverpool; and if this article arrives in due time, the work will be certainly completed within the present year. Thus the practicable and actual cost of this mode of improvement being fairly tested, all objections upon that ground will be removed; and if the next legislature should grant a charter for the extension of the road through the valley to some point above the shoals, we have no doubt, hut the wealthy and enterpri sing citizens of North Alabama will readily subscribe fora sufficient amount of stock to complete the work. Advertiser. BATTKf. From the following extract of a letter from an intelligent correspondent, it would seem that we are not singular in our opinion of the abuses to which Banks and Bankers are too frequently lia ble. The suggestion that “Republican editors should make Jefferson’s Works a Text Book on all political subjects,” meets onr hearty concur rence. We have done so, and shall continue to do so. 4. July go, 1831. “ Dr. AT! Sir —Pardon me for troubling you for a moment —I know you will do so, if you will rightly estimate my intention. Some time since you published in your paper a short but very handsome stricture upon Banking ; Systems, which called forth a miserable com- j mentary from some writer in the last ‘Mes senger.’ ” j- * # * * * “With regard to Banks, I beg leave to re fer you to Mr. Jefierso'’s works for the full est authority to support your doctrine ; —and although the pigmy f in the ‘Messenger’ may not, and probably will not believe Mr. Jeffer son understood the subject, yet, the cominu nity generally, disposed to give heed to the wisdom of the sage of Monticello, rath er than to the simple sayings of the “wise man” of Macon.f Besides various other passages in the works of Mr. Jefferson on the subject, you will find in his letter to Joim Taylor, of May 28,1816, the following:” “The system of Banking we have both equally and ever reprobated. 1 contemplate it as a blot left in all our Constitutions, which, if not covered, will end in their destruction, — and which is already bit by the gamblers of conniption, and is sweeping away in its pro gress, the fortunes and morals of our citizens." Vol. IV. page 274. “Again, in the same let ter, at page 277, he says sincerely be lieve with you, that Banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies, and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindli, i futurity on a large scale." “This, Mr. Editor, is the same doctrine, which you have advanced, only it is in stron ger language,—and, it is a doctrine which Mr. Jefferson ever, and at all times held and ad vanced, and which originated more hostile feelings between him and A. Hamilton-—that grand American monarchist—than any public measure, on which they so widely differed.— I think it really desirable that republican Ed tors should make Jefferson’s works a Text Book on all political subjects—for I believe, in Gd, that it is only by the spread of his doctrines that this Union can be preserved.— The federalists have been untiring in their en deavors to establish a “strong government” in this country, for the last half century—and their prospect for the last twenty years have been brightening. We can only look to a vi gilant, an able, and an honest Press to defeat them—such an ono as yours promises to be.” f “ Querist." IHII. RERKIEN. Some of our Editors, friendly to President Jackson, are already pronouneinff upon the ex parte statements of Messrs. Berrien and Ingham. This is unfair. Let them recollect, that uot only Col. Johnson, but the President also, is yet to be heard from —and, certainly, they are as much en titled to a public hearing, as are their gratuitous accusers. There is one reflection which bears ns out in the opinion, that Andrew Jackson is incapable of pursuing the very silly and highly censurable course imputed to him—and that is, that during one of the most politically distinguished administra tions of the General Government, party rancor itself has not been able to fix upon him a solitary derilec tion from either private or public duty, —All the weight of talent and influence which Henry Clay and John C. Calhoun can command, have been brought to bear against him, for the purpose of prostrating his truly Roman—no—his truly Amer ican fame. All, that personal ridicule—all, that private slander—all, that public misrepresentation could do, have been mischievously and industri ously employed to undermine his reputation—but his oum acts, have vindicated his character, and thus far brought him out triumphantly victorious; He is the only man, who, as the head of the American Government, has, by an unexampled exercise of moral courage, successfully reduced to practice theorthodox theories of Thomas Jefferson. This, of itself, was sufficient to raise up against him all the venality and aristocracy ot the country. In these remarks,it is not our intention—far be it from us—to impugn the motives of Mr. Berrien. We feel assured, however, that lie labors tinder some misconstruction, and that it will not be long before he is convinced of it. jtAirs. Anew work ha 9 recently issued from the Bos ton Press, entitled “Letters on Junius, addressed to John ’Pickering, Esq., showing that the author of that celebrated work was Earl Temple.” It is the production of Mr. Isaac Ncwhall of that city; and beside the primary object of establishing the claim of Ear! Temple, is said to possess “a great fund of information respecting the secrets of Min isterial History, and of the prominent individu als” who were contemporaneous with Junius’ writings. This part of Mr. Newhall’s perform ance may be interesting—but, at this late period, all speculations on the identity of Junius, are, in our estimation, idle and useless. None other but circumstantial evidence, and that too of a very doubtful character, has yet been advanced to sup port the pretensions of the various individuals who have been presented to the public as entitled to the honorable distinction. It is now of no im portance —as regards any positive good which might arise even from the establishment of the fact itself —to know, who, or what Junius was. — It is known that he was an enlightened patriot, who had become incensed at the political abuses of the times, and poured upon the Crown Minis ters from a pen of fire, “Noughts that breath’d, and words that burn’d.” For all the purpose of useful information, this is all wc need know of old ii Stat Nominis Umbra." Considerations like those, induce us to bsligve that all attempts to drag from its mystic cell, tills “shadow of a mighty name,” are unnecessary and unprofitable,—unless, indeed, it should be consid ered necessary and profitable to patronise the mo dern “art and mystery" of Book-Making, which threatens to inundate our shelves with a great deal of useless lumber. There certainly have been a great many ingeni ous suppositious suppositions tending to the iden tification of Junius. None of them, however, are entitled to so much credit as the sage deductions of Lord Byron. Hear him! “I've an hypothesis—’lis quite my own, I never let it out till now, for fear Of doing people harm about the throne, And injuring some minister or peer On whom the stigma might perhaps be blown; It is—my gentle public, lend thine ear! ’Tis, that what Junius we are wont to call, Was really , truly, nobody at all. 1 don’t see wherefore letters should not be Written without hands; since we daily view Them written without heads; and books we see Are filleo as well without the latter too; And really, till v. e are fix'd on somebody For certain sure to claim them as his due, Their author, like the Niger’s mouth will bother The world to say, if there be mouth or author,” Monsieur Tonson “Come Again.” We extract the following from the last Augus ta Chronicle. Our word for it, it is a “Mountain in labor.” “The Pendleton Messenger of the 27th ultimo, says:”—“W# have just received and hastily glanced over, a very interesting communication from the Vice President ou the subject of the dif ferences between the General and State Govern ments. It will appear in our paper next week.— We have no doubt that from the present attitude of affairs, and the high source from which it ema nates, the article will be eagerly sought for, and extensively read. Public curiosity has been ex cited on the subject of Mr. Calhoun’s opinions on this question, and we have observed for some months past, repeated calls through the papers, for an expression of them. They are now expli citly declared.” •Mr. Ingham $ Logic. Nothing can more clearly illustrate this gentle man’s mode of reasoning, than the following “clear matter of fact,"— uuless, peradventue, it should be, FalstafFs encounter with the men in buckram: “Mother Hopkins told me,that she heard Green’s wife say, that John Harris’ wife told her, that granny Hopkins heard the widow Bashman say, that Capt. Weed’s wife tho’t Col. Hopkins’s wife believed, that old Miss Lamb reckoned, that Sam uel Dunham's wife had told Spalding’s wife that she heard John Frink’s wife say, that her mother told her, that Miss Jenbs heard granny Cook say that it was a matter of fact.” Indian War. —The follow ing is an extract from a letter to a gentleman in this city, that furnishes the latest intelligence concerning the Indian disturbances, that were anticipated in the north-west: — ST. LOUIS, July 8, 1831 We had a pretty strong prospect of an In dian War, the other day, so much so, that there were ordered to Rock Island, 460 Reg ular troops aud 1500 mounted militia ; hut when the Indians found that the militia had arrived, they offered to make peace, which was effected by Gen. Gaines. From the Hobart Town Papers. Accounts have reached us this morning by the ship Dragon, from New Zealand, of the most distressing nature 1 . It appears that the exertion of the Missionaries have proved abor tive: that cannibalism was carried on to the most dreadful and that the internal war of the different tribes was raging with all its horrors. The immense sacrifice of human life by the savages to their heathen gods were beyond description. Baskets full ot hu man flesh, particularly thatof }t.ung women, were scattered about. So horrible are the accounts that wc fear to publish them, lest they might be exaggerated. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, June fi!
