OH! I COME NOT TO UPURAID THEE,
nv V. 11. BAVLY.
Ob, I come nut to upbraid thee,
Nor to woo litre am I bore;
Though in peril I would aid thee.
Though in sorrow I would cheer*
'Though 'lis than I’d tmalch from danger,
On He bank were thiiuremU thrown;
Net tho vow of some mere stranger
1 would duel before thine own/
II will be a source of wonder,
When wo pari, 1 know il well;
ll'/iy our hearts were torn asunder,
Eel thine own false accents tell;
Thou niiiy'sl any f did deceive thee—
Unprovoked 1 did renounce;
There are many will believe thee,
E’en ns I believed thee once!
I would peril life to save thee,
For no other do I live;
No—tho love I freely gave thee, i
To no other cun I give;
And widl mo all love was over,
When tny first love proved a dream;
I have ceased to be thy lover, ' ,
Love could not aurvi re esteem.

UN HE I) STATUS SENATE-
The Senate Chamber was this morning crow- 1
ded to overflowing with a iHiilliude ofholh sex,'*) 1
anxious to iicar Mr. Webster’s reply to Mr.
W light. The gallerries Were full to oveiflow
ing, and the piiv ringed soars on the floor were all 1
•coupled. I
The orders of the day, being the Sub Treasu
ry Bill, came up in order after the disposition ol '■
some preliminary business. i
Mr. Webster opened the debate, and begun
his speech lima; “Let the p uplu lake care of lls I
business, and Hie government lake euro ul ils.” i
'•l,el the people lake care of themselves, and the
government look out for itself.” Those ill.boding
and ominous words, have bean uttered hy the
honorable member from New-York, Mr. Wright.
Sir, continued Mr. Webster, in speaking thus,
he but reflects back the opinions expressed in the
Message of the President in September—the
| Message of die piesoeut session, and the Sub
j Treasniy Bill of the present session.
| Wbal, continued Mr. Webster, would have
j been tire condition of things, if the Administra
tion had left things as they wore! Wbat, ! might
j a-k, would not have been the condition of things
j had they been left as they wore? Where is that
] 'Better Currency,' which tins Administration pro
mised ns in 18U2,’dd and 'hi. after legislating &
o.vpeliinenling.atul ex peri mning and legisla -i g
year after year—ill the Senate and in the Meuse
—in the Stales and among the people! Where
■ is it! Why the ftiends of the Administration even
i acknowledge that it is nut, that the word of pro
mise has been kept to ike car and broken to tbe
j hope; and what is to lie the remedy and how are
, wo to he taken from this sloti ,h ofdcsp -ml into
! which we are thrown! How! why through the
savannahs and morasses cf a Sub-Treasury
■ Scheme. From this bog health and purity are
j to come forth'
U iim I turn ray eyes, eoniinucd Mr. W. on
my conniry and examine ils condition and busts
; —iu resources—ils conuuoici—its manufacture-,
j —the stale of affairs among■ air class of business
men, and in all pl.icc.— wilPfT'i look upon ibis
- picture and see the distress existing among the
coininunity, and from ilie picture turn my eyes
upon ibis bill as a measure of relief, it appears,
to me there is some delusion son owlrerc; I can*
| not see through it. 1 cannot understand it. Tell
me ii this bill will relievo the counity! j\'o, no,
K*.
It proposes to lake care of the Govern mc-nkand
to isolate (ho Government from the people. It
make the scvanls the masters, and the masters
the servants. It gives one a better currency to
the Government and another a letter cuivcncy
to the people. Mr. Webster said that the sena
tor twin New York, in his speech of yesterday,
contended that the prosperity of the country
was not impeded, its business was not impeded
Upon what authority can the senator 'make
such a declaration! Dot him look over it and he
will bird on answer to his opinion in every branch
of business, and in every portion ol tire courilrv.
Is there on loss ot credit—no loss of confldcnce* s
—no loss ot trade—no diminution of prosperity
—no change in the aspect W alfairs! I • And yet
w hen hardly a man in the Union is not a suil’er
! cr from the expcitmr tiling of the General Gover
j men!, wo find the Senator from IS’c.v York
| crying out tout ail is well—that all is prosperous
! —-drat rll is A eahhy. If this be healthy, i„ the
I ua no of heaven, what is sickness?
Sir, continued Mr. W. this bill should have a
preamble—a preliminary explanation to the
lust section; which should read, that whereas the 1
Government of the United Suttee was creeled for
iU own distinct bench.; that whereas the Sena e
was established a branch of the Gove muent for
its own special benefit —that whereas we were
'created for our own use, and were altogc har dis
tinct from the people—therefore be it enacted, dec.
Mr. Webster continued his speech fir an
hour and a half and like til his spetc.tel this
was distinguished for its eloquence, *und
argument and ability. Uc contended that the
principles of the bill carried us back to the
dark ages, to the feudal times of old —to the
practices of all tyrannical Governments —to
*he days of bolts and bars and safes. It took
all confidence from the people, and denied all
faith in mast and all trust among men. It car
ried us back to the dayts of physical power, ;
and placed our Government on a level with j
the Governments of Europe in the dark and
iron ages of the world
He contended that public opinion was against
it, and denied a declaration made b,)j Mr.
Wright, of New York, that public opinion was
in its fkvor. That Senator, said Mr. W.
(alludingto Mr. Wright,) has said that the
opinions of the people are reflected through
the'(Senators and Members of the House of
Representatives. Mr. Webster denied this,
because all tile members of the present Con
gross was chosen bcfu.'e the sub * treasury
scheme was adopted. Mr. W. thought the
(he Senator himself duLnot reilect the opin
ion Os the people of M<Bw’ s Vo;k. He thought j
some Senators from the did not reflect |
the opinions of their cdfiitijjlftnts us well as j
some of the Senators from the East. It was j
not fair therefore to say that either the Senate !
or the House of Representatives reflected the j
opinions of their cons ituents. • On the con. |
trary, lie believed that a majority if the peo
ple were opposed to the whole plan.
Mr. Webster also contended that the bill
would put oil'the day of specie payments,
and then contrasted the harsh measures ot
the government now, with the government
when administered by such men as Madison,
Crawford and Lowndes.
After Mr. Webster bad concluded his re- |
marks, several verbal and unimportant amend
munis was adopted in Committee of the
Whole. On motion of Mr. Calhoun, the
twenty first section was enliraly stricken out
by the following vote . i

there is an outer har opposite the entrance to the
port of Urunswiek, in tlcorgia, gome miles dis
taneo from that surveyed by three conimission
eis of the Navy in 1836, and having less water
upon it; the above reward is offered to any person
who will discover any such har so situated aslo
cause a hindrance to ships entering llio port.
And whereas it has been also currently reported
that there is a bar across the inner channel cf Og
lethorpe hay,opposite the city of Brunswick, hav
ing only the depth of six oruight (eel ofwiteron
it at low tide; a reward cf Five Hundred J)o|.
lars will ho paid to any parson who shall discover
such bar, or nnv har so situated, which has not
an abundant depth of water upon it for the ic.s
sa NO of me. chant ships of the first class up to the

‘•Between Brandy pom, in this island, ans Den
nis's fully on iho Brunswick chore, , .‘‘ore is an in
ner bar, upon which there is about f.vch ' feet at
low water, and ns the tide rises ten feet, it g.'l'Cs
the same depth cfwalor that wj find on the outer
har, with this advantage, that the bottom being
son mml,creates no damage lo ships, and may he
very easily deepened it it were necessary. But no
such necessity exists, ns any ship that crosses
the oilier bar can run ovet this at high w ater and
find the best anchorage near the bluff along the
wholo extent of (he town, in from twenty lo for
ty foot water ul the lowest time of tide. This we
ascertained from careful soundings at low water,
and niter having finished iho soundings fur our
solves, ascertained that bkockton’s report and dia
grams Confirmed our own survey.”
2d, From the report of the commissioners of
the navy, made subsequently lo the lasi;
“A shoal ul soil mud, close to ami below the
town, on which but twelve toot can bo found at
low water, seems io indicate some other point m
tho harbor as a more suitable position fora navy
yard. Ue believe Blythe Island, on .the opposite
shore, to ho tho most eligible.”
Any persons making lliu above discoveries, will
please give informaiiou of the same to tbo Resident

ard sh -11 be paid in each Case to iho first successful
