Happiness. “ Mere curious pleasure or ingenious pain.” What a strange word is happiness T— flow indefinite and unsatisfactory in its mearing— and how indefinite in its locality and time of realization. Ask where’s the North ? at York, ’tis on the Tweed— In Scotland, at the Orcades ; and there, At Greenland, Zambia, or the gods’ know where.” Happiness is a myth beyond the grasp of mortal life, a word unsuited to man, and be yond his power to reacli or retain. The inhab itant of the watery deep may gaze with pleasure on the mountain landscape reflected in the light of day, but his element fails to buoy him to its locality, or if by chance, he lands amid its flowers, and fruit finds them a bed of thorns Yet, Some strange comfort every State attends.” “ Comfort ” is the word, if any, that answers to the reconciliation of mortal existance. The being that lives and hopes for happiness on earth, hopes in vain. \Yo may find comfort, not happiness, even amid cares and burdens of the mountain's weight “ Vanity and vexation of spirit,” are more intrusive at the door of the palace than in the hut of dispair. Reconciliation-to the ills,” and Hope, which *< Springs eternal in the human breast,” are the messengers which happiness lias sent from Amoranthiue fields to the intelligences of earth to guide them amid the crags and thorns of life's stormy way. Death is tiie gate through which to pass Irom scenes of toil to the haven of rest Preparation for a graceful entrance through the wide portal savors more of reai happiness than all the wealth, glory and honor of earth. f Kir. Fillmore In Europe. The European Home correspondent of the New York Herald gives the following account of Mr Fillmore's travels in Europe.

Yesterday : party of Americans—(l do not mean to use the word as a party distinction—it will be a sad spectacle when any portion of Americans will have ceased to think and feel and act as Americans) —communicated to Mr. Fillmor- the fact of his nomination; but he remained as calm as a summer's morning, and seemed to lie quite indilferent as to the honor intended to be showered upon him. lie leaves here on Tuesday next lor Florence, Milan ami Venice, and will visit Vienna, Munich, titutt- j gard and Strasbourg on bis way h me. The I north of Europe he visited last summer, ami j there is probably now no man living iu the United States so well posti dup in our foreign affairs and thoroughly acquainted with tiie po sition of the different Stales of Europe as Mr. Fillmore, and none who has more judgment to make the proper use of his knowledge. While Mr. Fillmore,on his way from Mar seilles to Nice, was passing through Cannes, memorable, as you well know, in ancient times by the battle which Julius Ctesar won over the Gauls, but celebrated in latter days as a most delightful residence for Englishmen in search of country life, retirement uni health lie made a short visit to Lord Brougham, who had shown him some attention in London, and was not a little astonished when, on leaving the place, he found his Lordship (who is now in a very advanced age) waiting for him near the carriage with a splendid copy of anew edition of his Lives ot Eminent Men of the reign of George 111. His Lordship had come down nearly two miles from his beautiful palace, on foot, to wait on our venerable ox-Presidcnt to present him with this testimonial of his high regard. Os the special favor shown Mr. Fill more by the Pope, I have spoken in a previous letter, where I stated that his Holiness bestow ed on hint more than princely honor when lie invited Mr. Fillmore to take a scat by his side. The King of Naples had an extra train in readiness to convey Mr. Fillmore to the roy al residence; and wherever else Mr. Fillmore lias set foot he was received, and only with tiie honors due to tiie exalted station he otc e occu pied, but with that respect for the innate digni ty of the man which no official position, how ever high, can ensure unless coupled with per sonal dignity and evidence of a high individual character.

An Appk.ntice Wanted.— The Salisbury , (N. 0.) Republican Banner advertises for an j apprentice to the printing business, in the fol lowing terms! Wanted, at this office, a ymmg man to learn the printing trade. He must he ambitions en ough to get out of bed before eight o'clock in the morning—to do a thing without being told how more than six times—do his chores with out having all the boys in the neighborhood help him, or an overseer to tell him mortiing. noon and night, what is to he done; and last, though not least, he must lie willing to carry the papers, wait upon subscribers, saw wood, rock the cradle, if necessary, roll, distrioute jobs, black his own boots, etc. To such a one a steady situation and good wages will be given. The Banner may succeed in getting such an apprentice over in North Carolina,but in Geor gia the idea would lie preposterous. “Young America” runs a different scheduld over this way. and if the editor is not a pretty shrewd chap, the ■•devil" will gut ahead of him. * The following, written by a gentleman who recently left this place for Kansas, was handed ns, with a request to publish it: FAREWELL TO GEORGIA ! Dear Georgia! farewell, a fond adieu, To Iby sunny "lime and skies so blue ; The prarie fields of the wild, wild west, Bid me come, her rights contest. Oil!

There are seventy-one Banks in the United States having a ea itoi of a mil lion of dollars or more, each. The 15,-iiik of Commerce at New York has the the largest capital, namely five millions of dol lars. The Merchants’ Bank of Boston is next, having four millions. The Bunk of Louisianna, at New Orleans, comes nearly up to the same mark, $3,993,000 capital. The American, Exchange and Metropoli tan Banks of New Y'ork have each three | millions, and the New Orleans Canal and Banking Company, and the Bank of Charleston, S. C., have ahont the same amount. Senator Bell.— lt is rumored in Wash ington, says the Portsmouth (Tenn.) Ga zette, that Senator Bell will resign his seat in the United States Senate, during the month of June next, o:i account of impair ed health, thereby giving the legislature an opportunity to elect his successor. Ground was broken lor the first time on the Pcnsocola and Montgomery Road, at Pensaco la, on the 19th ilist. Disparity of Fortunes. —lt was the re mark of an elderly gentleman, while speak ing of disparity of fortune—especially on the wife’s side in marriage that when he married lie had twenty cents and his wife twenty-five, and that she had been hold ing up tiiat five cents at him ever since. The Way a Catholic Victory is Cele brated. The Irish Papists of Albany cel ebrated their recent victory in that city by burning in offigy the editor of the A1 bany Transcript, and shooting at an im age intended to represent the unfortunate object of their vengeance. During these orgies the editor was abused in no meas ured terms ; his name was eceived with groans—and if words could kill he would be as lifeless as stone. The Foreign Vote In Kansas. The Hartford Times, the Democratic organ of Connecticut—a Journal by which the faith ful of that State swear, says : “The sir gi st probability of Kamo*becom ing a free Sfyte is iferiml from the fact tiiat, tK- ’i in I- foreign-born citizens who are pouring m . < lie c w territory are ail free St -te , men, wit- ■< i v«!> against tlie inirodueti.-ii of ■davit- (Ires,. . ajt-d Repiiblii-an parly in C “aa eiie:: n ‘ id. r t.ndefeat the Democracy, ere unit ina null tiie Kn.iw Nothings—an order that op mo. s ami proscribes i his very class of foreign-born free State men. The Know N'olli mgs would deprive them of the right to vote. Are these sham Republicans, who prof-sssneh devotion to “freedom for Kansas.” consistent in thus uniting with a party opposed to ail for eign-horn citizens? Opposed to the very means which will make Kansas a free State.” It seems that the extract conies from a De mocratic organ—the Hartford Times. It proves tWo things conclusively: Ist. That the said “organ” uuu those it represents desire Kan sas to be made a Free State. 2d. Thai the Northern Democracy calculate on the aid of the Foreign Vote to oppose slavery in the Territo ries. Arc I last things so? We say emphatically, that they ate so “beyond perndventure.” The well authenticated sentiments of Pierce, Doug las and Cass leave no room to doubt them, us to the first; and second is demonstratablc by the fact, that the trans-Atlantic reservoirs from Which these foreign votes are drawn are utter ly defiled by abolition fanaticism. It would be strange if uidi-slavery nations sent out here pro-slavery voters. It is inconsistent with rea son or common sense. There probably never put his foot on American soil, a German. Eng lishman, Frenchman. Scotchman or Irishman who at the time of his coming, was not opposed to slavery, os far as he bail any sentiment or desire, on that subject. That very many change their views, after living in the Suothern States, and observirg the workings of our system, we do not question. But that it is a very different matter and does not bear on the point at issue. The foreigners whose votes wili settle the. Ter ritorial contests against us, never see the South, at. all; or at least, they never see slavery as it really is. They may be in its neighborhood, as is the case with the Germans in Western Texas—but in its neighborhood, isolated and clanish. they keep up foreign sentiments and foreign predjudicse. But the modern Democracic policy is to flood the country with foreigners; tiie Southern wing swearing they are tiie best allies Slavery ever had: while the Northern wing knows they may lie safely counted to help “shriek for freedom.” There is only one greater political folly than this blind belief in frcsldy-iniported foreigners, on the part of the South. That folly is the be lief (?) that a foreigner can love this country as well as his own and is as competent to assist in governing it as the native-born. Modern, patent, Pierce Democracy having had its throat well stretched by gulping down the first propo sition. takes fallacy the second down that throat as if it were an oyster! —Montgomery Mad. The N. Y. National Democrat says: It is a thing to be remembered that at the time when the entire Hard Democratic press ol this State was advocating the repeal of the Missouri line, and when that measure was especially advocated by ns from the circumstance of its entire accord ance with the doctrine of non-intervention.first a tvocatcd by Daniel S. Dickinson, the Washing !<>i: Union edited by Forney A Nicholson, cori lainci! the following remarks: . , ::.\< k. Patriotism, Devotion to the Union . rim Interest of the Democratic Par tv—ail suggest that, the public sentiment which in-w :o quiesces cheerfully in the principles of the ('ompr.;mise of 1850 should not be incon s derate! ., disturbed. The Iriumphat election to President Pierce shows that on this basis the hearts and the judgment of the people are with tiie Democracy. We may venture to suggest that it is weh worthy of consideration whether i faithful adherence to the creed which has been s i iriumphatly indorsed by tiie people docs not r-quire all good Democrats to hesitate and rc -1 fir,-: maturely upon any proposition which any j member of mfc party can dSjeit to as an interpn- Int on upon that creed. In a word, it would be wise, in ail Demociats to consider whether it would not be safest to let well enough alone." To repeal the Missouri Compromise might, and according to our view would cl ar the principle of Cotigressial non-intervention of ail t-mbbrras iin-iit; but we doubt whether t he good thus prom ised is s i important that it would be wise to seek ii through the agitation which necessarily stands in on path. Upon a calm review of the whole ground, we yet see no such reason for disturbing the Compromise of 1850 as would in duce us to advocate cit Her of the amendments proposed to Mr. Douglas's bill. The Date of the Treaty of Peace.— Singular Coincidence. —A letter from Par is says : “The so much discussed treaty of peace is signed at last, and signed oil the anni versary of a reat event. On this day, forty two years ago, was sou ht the hat lie of Paris, the last act of the Great dra, ina of which Europe was the theatre ; and on the following day the Russians en tered the capital, and dictated terms of peace where now their Ambassadors have come to ask for it. On thefol owing day, which many still remember as cold, som- - lire and cheerless, the allies enter and Paris, j That France is now able, in concert with lie* allies, to dictate peace to Russia, may lie considered as full satisfaction for the past, and I am not quite sure that it was without design that the 30th of March j was selected for the occasion.” A II uman Horn. —Dr. Poreher, of j Charleston, has in his possession a horn, j about seven inches in length, and in diame ter two inches and three quarters bearing a c.los resemblance to a ram’s horn, which he extracted from the head of a negress, aged about 52, horn on a plantation it St. j Johns Berkley, S. C Tire tumor com i incneed forming some eight years since, with a swelling and discharge, and, after a while, a gradual increase in size. Dur ing the four months preceding its remov- 5 al, it. grew some two inches, and having, in curving around, reached the face in the temporal region, just to the left of one eye, and having commenced to produce snppur ut on of the skin with which it had come in contact, its immediate removal was nec essitated. Its removal, which was done in December. 1854, in the presence of Dr' D. J. Cain, and several students of the Charleston Prepatory Medical School, was accompanied with comparatively lit tle pain. It was found, upon examination afterwards, tiiat some remains of the orig inal growth remained, and there is some prohab lity that it may increase in size and and again require removal.— Aug. Chron icle. The Holy Lance. —The lance which opened the side of our Divine Saviour is now kept at Rome, but has no point. An drew of Crete, who lived in the seventh ’ century, says it was buried together with the cross, and St. Gregory of Tours and Venerable Bede test fy that in there time it was kept at Jerusalem. For fear of the Saracens, it was hurried privately at An tioch, in which city it was afterward found, and wrought many miracles, as Robert the Monk and many eye witnesses testify. It was first carried to Jerusalem, and then to Constantinople, and at the time the ci jtv was taken by the Latins, Baldwin II sent the point of it, to Venice as a pledge for a loan of money. St. Louis, King of ; France, redeemed it by paying the sum for which it was pledged, and had it con veyed to Paris, where it is still kept in t lie Holy Chapel. The rest of the lance re mained at Constantinople, after the Turks had taken that city to the year 1492, when the Sultan Bajazet sent it by an eue lmssador, in a rich and beautiful case, to Pope Innocent VIII, adding that the point was in the possession of the Kiug of France. speech of Tlr. Fillmore. In the Spring of 1854, only two years ago, Mr. Fillmore visited, aliiohg other places in his Western tour, Louisville, Ky., where he was. as every where else, treated with the most marked courtesy. In reply to a welcoming ad dress, he made a speech, a sketch of which was published at the time ill the Journal, which now that he is before the people for the first office in the world, will be read with pleasure- Here it is t Mr. Fillmore said, on rising, that he felt ex ceedingly, embarrassed in being called on, for the first time in his file, to address an audieuee like the one before him, and that he sincerely hoped that there was no " chiel ” present “ takin ” notes, but that what lie should utter should be forgotten with tne occasion. He was at a loss to understand what motive could have prompted such a great and unexpected expres sion of regard on I lie part of the citizens of Kentucky If lie were in the actual possession of the power which it was dice his torture to wield, or even again seeking that position, he might see an object for such a manifestation, but here I am, said lie, neither holding nor seek ing office, wth nothing as a private or public man, which, in my own estimation, should call forth such a testimonial as this. To nothing, said lie, can I attribute it but a real Kentucky hospitality, which seeks un object, whether worthy or not, and lavishes upon that object its own generosity. Mr. Fillmore said that it. was his misfortune to be, without his solicitation, and certainly against his wishes called to the administration of the government. lie lmd not even sought the nomination for the Vice-Piesidency, and none cou and be more surprised than he when he learned that he had been nominated. It was only ten hours before General Taylor's death that he had any thought that his illustrious friend was in danger. The knowledge came upon him like a peal of thunder from a clear sky. lie felt wholly unprepared for the great responsibilities about to devolve upon him.— Though he bad been for many years a politi cian, he could say that the only sleepless night' he ever passed, on account of political anxiety, was that on which Gen. Taylor died, bis sleeplessness arose from his deep feeling of the weight of the duties unexpectedly devolved up on him. He reviewed during the hours of that night his own opinions and his own life, lie was sensible that ho hud drunk in with his mother's milk and cherished from his own youth up, a feeling, even a prejudice against slavery, lie endeavored to look upon this whole coun try, from the faithest corner of Maine to the utmost of limit Os Texas, as but one country the country that had given him birth. He saw in the gathering clouds in the North and in the South a storm which was likely to over whelm him, and, in- feared, his country also, but lie took the constitution and the laws as his only guide. He well knew, that bysodoing.be must lose the friendship of many prominent men of the country, especially in his own State, and en counter their reproaches, but to him this was nothing. The man who can look upon such a crisis without being willing to offer himself up on the altar of his country is not fit for a pub lie trust. On the night of Gen. Taylor’s death, the members of his cabinet presented to me their resignations. 1 .reclined to look at them, first, because 1 deemed it respectful to the hon ored dead that 1 should not consider by what means I should carry on the government until he was decently interred; and secondly, be cause this avalanche of responsibility had fal len upon me unprepared. I desired at least a few hours to reflect on what it was my duty to do. Here was a cabinet, selected by Gen. Tay lor, several of them my personal friends, whom I would do anything in my power to serve, short of endangering the peace of my country. I knew, however, that their policy was not such as I could approve. 1 saw that the executive power of the government, and the legislative were in opposition to each other and that, while this state of things continued, peace could never be restored. | The question therefore ' presented itself to ; me, shall I retain this cabinet or select anew one. The latter course was adopted ; but you can scarcely conceive the difficulties of the po sition in which this decision placed me. When the Presidents are elected, they have two or j three month- before taking their office, to se lect men suited to act as heads of departments, \ but this duty came upon me in half a day. I i requested the members of the Taylor cabinet ! to stay thirty days and to give mean opportun ! ity to look round and select their successors, ; but they respectfully declined. Thus, while the : storm was coming up in the North and in the j South. 1 was suddenly called to administer the government, without a cabinet, and without | time to select one ; but thank God 1 was not j long iii this situation. I was so fortunate us to j obtain a cabinet, the members of which and j myself always agreed in opinion ; and in all its acts, we acted together. In that cabinet your own honored Kentucky was honorably repre sented. Sti I. said Mr. Fillmore, the great dif ficulty remained. The question arose, what was to be done ? In Texas and New Mexico, a civil war threatened. Texas made preparations to take possession of a portion of New Mexico. He felt it his duty to maintain the- laws of his country. One of the laws required that the people of the Territory of New Mexico should lie protected. Asa means of protecting, lie immediately ordered a portion of the army and munitions of war to the frontier ol'Tcxas to do duty there. The army was put in motion, and then, and not till then, did Congress act upon the subject. Texas and New Mexico acquiesc ed in the action of Congress. Mr. Fillmore spoke of the adoption of the compromise mea sures of 1850, especially of the fugitive slave law. This law, he said had some provisions in jit to which ho had objections, lie regretted the necessity of its being passed at all; but the constitution required the giving up the fugitive 1 slaves, and it was net for him to decide wheth er this was a compact; he had sworn to main tain it, and would do so to his la3t hour. When the bill came to me from the two houses, in the midst of hurry and confusion and difficulties, he examined it, and a doubt came up in bis miud whether it was not uncon stitutional, as denying the right of habeas cor pus to the fugitive slave. He referred the ques tion to our accomplished Kentucky lawyer, ins Attorney General, who gave his oj inion that the law was not a violation of the constitution; and thereupon, said Mr. Fillmore, I gave my signature to the bill, but in doing so, I drew down upon my devoted head, as I knew I should the vials of wrath from abolitionism and free- NUMBER 40* soiiism. Mr. Fillmore regretted that, he had felt called on to say so much of himself, and went on to speak ot those who stood by him in the great struggle of 1850. He said that ho would gladly name in that connection many living persons, nor Whigs merely but denficrats as true patriots as ever lived. This work of pacification, said lie. was by no means the work of one man, or five men, or ten men—-tiie crisis was one in which the true patriots of the na tion. no matter what they lmd been called, Whigs or democrats, or any other name, rose above all personal and partizan considerations, and look ed only to tiie good of the country. He refer red beautifully to the noble piarts taken by the illustrious dead, Mr. Clay, Mr. Webster, and the late Vice President King. The speaker said that though he had, by his efforts in behalf of the compromise, lost for a time tiie confidence of a portion of his fellow citizens, and especially in his own State, he loved that State fls dear mother, and was um w illing to believe that he had proved a recent son. lie trusted that the excitement of the moment would pass away, and that she would at last see that he had ut least acted w itli hon est intentions, if he lmd not acted the better port. But. fellow citizens, Juki he, let me refer to your own Stnte. When the gatheriug tem pest of fanaticism, abolition fanaticism, was rolling up from the North and an equally vio lent tempest of fanaticism, was rolling up from the South, where then did the State of Ken tucky stand? She stood like a rock amid the serges of the ocean—she Stood firm and unshak en, the pillar of the constitution. Ilia eulogy of Kentucky was exceedingly handsome, and 'his portion of speech like all the other por tions, was received with the most enthusiastic applause. Few public speakers ever made so line an impresriou upon u Louisville audience us he. Mr. Fillmore. —The New York Iloir.e Journal thus alludes to the nomination of Mr. Fillmore : “ Thi recent nomination by the Know Noth ing Convention, of Mr. Fillmore, as their can didate for the Presidency, is at present tiie theme of considerable amplification on the part of tiie newspapers. The Southern wing of that party receive the nomination with cordiali ty, while in the North they are divided in opin ion. Os course ail the disappointed candidates, with their attachees. grumble and call it a mis erable choice. Whatever may be raid of the principles of the party, there is i.o denying that they have selected a noble standard bearer.— He is a man without reproach in his private relations and of disinterested patriotism. Al though a self-made man. he is possessed of va ried learning and profound skill in the science of statesmanship, More than all, he has a sterling Roman firmness, and is an honest man —such as our country greatly needs in these times. 11 is indifference to political preferment is admirably shown in his absence from the pet ty manamverings, on a tour of foreign travel, in which he is gathering knowledge for future usefulness to himself and country.” A fragment, Swiftlg glide our years—they follow each other like tiie waves of the ocean.— Memory calls up the person we once knew the secnes in which we were the actors ; they appear before tiie mind like phan toms of a i-' —-r' v' ion. JSehokl lire hey rejoicing in the gavety ot his soul —tlret- wheels of time cannot roil too rapidly for him—the light ol hope dances in his eye —the smile of expectation plays upon liis lip—he looks forward for long years to come—his spirit burns within him when he hears of great men and mighty deeds —belongs to mount the hill of ambition, to tread the path of honor, to hear the shout of applauss. Look at him again— he, is in the meridian of life—care has stamped wrinklcss upon his brow— disap pointment has thrown its gloom upon his countenance —he looks hack upon the walking dreams of youth, and sighs for their futility—each revolving year seems to diminish something from his stock of happineis, and he discovers that the sea son of youth, when the pulse of anticipa tion beats high, is the only season of en joyment. 'Who is he of the aged locks? His form is bent ■ nd totters—his footsteps move more rapidly towards the tomb—he looks back upon the past—his days ap pears to have been but few, and he con fesses they were evil—the magnificence of the world fades from his view, and he sinks down into the silence of the grave. Thf. Girls. —Al lien a young man en ters the arena of the world in search of a\ wife, he should ask three questions before entering into courtship; first, is she in telligent? second, is she kind and benevo lent? and thirdly, did she ever get lip be fore breakfast in the morning? If all these iiitcrogatories be answered in the affirmi tive, no other qualification is dispensable necessary: for with sneh a wife fortune and fame can easily be acquired. Such is the wife for the laboring man, such should be the companion of one fortunately pos sessed of wealth, and such should be tire wife of hint who aspires to tiie highest sta tions that society can bestow. All this in formation can be easily obtained from tiie girl you have in view; for many boast of their indolence, and think no higher com pliment could be paid tlrnn by calling them delicate in health and feeble in mind. If she is weighed in the balances and found wanting, pass her with contempt,and look toother resources for future happiness.— But marry, lit the risk be what it may—it gives dignity to your profession, it inspires confidence, and commands respect. AA’ith a wife the lawyers are more trusty, the doctors more, esteemed, the men haul gets a bigger credit, and the mechanic throws the hammer with increased power, and shoves the plane with a more dexterous hand, in short—a man who has no wife, is no man at all. She nurses him while sick, she watches for him when absent, and loves and cherishes him when in health. Gent'eman, get a wife, a pretty one il you hkc them best—a good one if she is to be found—and a rich one if you can get her. Then youth will pass in visionary pleas ures, as if on a bed of flowers, middle age. will be enjoyed in the bosom of a happy family, when your head is silvered o'er with the frosts of many winters, you can re flect back with the happy consolation that you have spent your life in usi fulness to yourself, and to the benefit of your fellow men.
