With cold nnd wintry moon liglit On ye roof and steeples shed, Shadow* waving with the 6un light Fiom the grny sky overhead, Biondly, vaguely, all around me, lies the half- buili town outspread. Through this broad street restless ever, Kbbs and ilows n humnn tide, Wave on wave, a human river— Wealth nnd fashion side by side; Toller, idler, slave and master, in the same quick current glide. Underneath yon dome, whoso coping Spreads above them, vast nnd tall, Grave men in (ho dust me groping For the largess, base and sin ill, Which the hand of power is scattering, crun.b which from He table fall. JJase of heart! They slowly barter Honor's wealth for puty's pi.ice: Step by mep oo Fiocdom's charter Leaving footprints of disgrace; For to day's poor pittance, turning from the great hope of their race. Yet when festal lamps arc throwing Glory round the dancer's hair, Gold-dressed, like nn angel's, flowing Backward on thesunsei air: And the low quick pulse of music boats its meas- ures sweet and rare, There to-night shall \voinnn*6 glances, Star-like welcome give to thorn, Fawning fools, wiih' shy advances, Seek to' tovrch 1 their garment's hem. With the tongue of (Vmcry, glozing deeds which God and Troth condemn. From this glittering lie my vision Takes a broader, sadder lange, Firil before me have aVijcn' Other pictures dark and strange. Fiom the p;irlor to the prison must ti.e scene nnd witness change. Hark! the heavy gate'is'swinging On its hinges', liiirsh and slow"; One pale prison-lamp is flinging On a fenrful group below, Such a sight as leaves.- to'terror v/hutsoo'or it does not show. Iheni, but in no other way can you get. an idea of the size of St. Peters. 1 will not give you feet and inches, but say that if Trinity Church, New York, i.- Jtuishotl on the plan with which it was commenced, you could pile about twelve of them into St. Peter's and have considerable room left for walking about. By taking off the steeples, you could arrange two rows of them in the Church, three in a row, then clap on the steeples again under the dome, and they would reach u trifle more than half way to the top. You could put two churches like the Trinity under the dome, and have the entire nave of the Church arid both the side aisles wholly unoccupied. Take three Astor houses and place them lenglhwi.se, and they would extend the length of St. Peter's— make a double row of them, and they would fill it half way up to the roof, pretty snug. Thirty or forty conirnonchurches couflbc stored away in it without much trouble, and the four columns that sup- port the dome arc each larger than an or- dinary dwelling house. I'nt this irs nothing—the marble—the statuary—the cosflv tombs—the architecture—the art are indescribable. [The process of illuminating this vat I fabric on the great days of the Church, with its appearance and died, i.> ttius graphically dclitjeated :J I way too weary to give you in my last-, a description of the closing u;> of Kapler Sunday. It isa principle in all Catholic ceremonies, never to wind oil' gradually asis top frequently the case among the Protestants, but to have the lasl display the most magnificent of all. Thus, on Easier Sunday, the closing up of Holy week, the Papal throne crowds its entire pomp into its ceremonies, nnd as, during the day, the interior of St. Peter's has done its utmost to magnify his Holiness, BO at night the exterior must do its share of glorification. This great building, covering several acres, is illumi- nated on its entire outer :u fie*. It is caused by suspending four thousand four hundred lanterns upon it, covering it from the dome down. To acconipiisn this, men have to he lei down with ropes over every edifice, ami left dangling there, for more than an hour. From the base • of the church, they look like insects creep- ing over the surface. Hanging down the precipitous sides of the immense dome, nice glittering over the darkness under it—the magnificent semi-circular colo- riadeS all inherent with light, and every one hundred and ninety-two statues along its top surmounted with a lamp, and tho immense dome rising over all like a mountain of mollen silver, in the deep darkness around, so completely delude the senses, that one can think of nothing but a fabric suddenly lighted and hung in mid heavens. This effect, however is given only when one stands at a dis- tance—the Pincian hill, the spot from which to view it. All around is buried in deep darkness, except that steadily shining glory. Not a sound is heard to break the stillness, and you gaze, and gaze, expecting every moment to see the beautiful vision fade, but still it shines calmly on. This illumination lasts from eight to nine, and just as the bell of the Cathedral strikes nine, sending its loud and solemn peal over the city, a thousand four and seventy-five torches, arc suddenly kin- dled beside the lanterns. The change is instantaneous and almost terrific. The 'Why. my dear fellow you've got it. Ten thousand at one and u q'tartcr a month, for six years, is nine thousand—a thousand yon owed me—ami you've just paid theten. It's all ripht, my dear boy—a fair business transaction.' Rcrc'Ue. A YOUNG JEWESS OF TANGIER. We find an interesting article on the Jews in the Missionary Chronicle copied from an"Appeal for the Jewish Nation," l.y E; Li !\ Jit ford, Esq. It appears that nothing more is required to make a Christian, or a Jew a Mahom- etan, by their law, than the depositions of two witnesses of their having pronounced the words, "There is no God but God, and Mahomet is the Apostle of God."— Against this testimony the protestation^ of the Jews are vain, and the penalty of re- cantation is burning fit the slake. There is a young Jewess of respecta- ble family residing in Tangier, summon- ed before the Cadi by two Moorj, who de- posed to her haviyg pronounced Ihcir pro- fession of faith. This she utterly denied. but in vain, and the Cadi decreed her con- formity to Islam ism on pain of death.— air seems to waverto and fro in the sud-l But the affair became public and reached den light—shape and form are for a mo-1 the. cars of Mulia Abdcraabman, to whom yj od!—Is that H\VI-M\N' On whose vVrista' the shackles claoh?

The next moment old St. Peter's again draws its burning outline against the black .sky, and stands like a mountain of torches in the deep night, with a fiery cross burning at the top. Ilow the glo- rious structure burns, yet unobnstunctl! The flames wrap it in their fierce em- brace ami vet not a single detail is lost in tho conflagration. There is the noble facade in all its harmony, and yet on fire There are the immense eolonades waver- ing in the light, changed only in that they are now each a red marble shaft.— The statues stand unharmed, ami all fiery figures. The dome is a vast firc- ball in the darkness, yet ils distinct out- line remains as clear as at the first. The whole mighty edifice is there built all of flame—columns, frieze, cornice, win- dows, domes, cross—a temple perfect ii every part, flashing, swaying, burning in mill heavens. The senses grow bewildered in gazing on its intense brilliancy, and thejudgmen pronounces it an optical illusion, unreal fantastical. Yet, the next moment i stands corrected—that is St. Peter's fla ming, unwasted, in the murky heavens Hour after hour it blazes.ph, and the las torch is yet uncxtinguished when Ihegra} twilight of morning opens in the cast.— This you sny is a gloriotu; spectacle ; yes. but it is Sabbath evening—ihe succe of,the apostle—the]spiritual head of the church—the vicc-gereul of God on cartl: has sanctified the Sabbath !>y this gloriou illumination in honor of the Son of God!' standing four hundred feet high in llicair, LVVhat a preposterous idea, what a magniti is attended with so much danger, folly !

The last sacrament is taken, and their accounts settled both for this world and the next, so t'u.-.t d.eath after all, would not be so great a calamity. The Pope muLl amuse the [people, and glorify his reign, though he hazard human life in doing it. But he has magnanimity to secure the sufferer in the next world. If a rope break, the man is crushed into ashapelcss raasspnhthe pavement below, his soul immediately ascends to one of the mOst favored scats in Paradise, lie I'd! from God's Church-—he .died in Ihe al- tCmpI to illuminate it, and in obedience to Gods -vicegerent on earth.

But one foirgets all this in looking at the illuminations, which it i.s impossible to describe. There are two illumina- tions. The first is called the silver one, and commences about eight o'clock in the evening. These four thousand four hundred lamps,'arc so arranged as to re- veal the entire architecture of the build- ing. Every column, cornice, frieze, window—all the details ot the building, and the entire structure, are revealed in a soft, clear light, producing an effect indescribably pleasing, yet utterly be- wildering. It seems an immense alabas- ter building, lit from within. The long lines of light made by tiic columus, with I the shadows between—ihe beautiful cor- SHAVING A NOTE.

'Whatever might have influenced ,her '•'•' a '-is, there could be no doubt of the notives of tho Sultan in enforcing the locrce, which was to obtain another play- hiug for his harem; in fact, so well known was his character in this respect, tha from the moment of her being ordered to Ilia piescnce, no one expected any othc result—for few possibly imagined, nor did the Sultan himself, that she would have the courage to brave the alternative rath cr than abandon the faith of her fathers Such, however, was the case. She wa firkt sent to the Scrail, where every moan were employed to shake her constancy threats, blandishments, and the most bril lianl promises were tried by turns, and were equally unsuccessful. Even her relations were allowed to sec her, to en- deavor by their persuasions to divert her from her resolution ; but with a firmness which against such assaults could have been the effect only of the deepest con- viction, this young aud noble creature held fast her integrity, and calmly chose a horrible though honorable death, rather than the enjoyment of an ignominious ex- istence of shame and infamy. "The Jews came forward with offers of immense sums of money to save her, but her fate was irrevocably decided, and the only mercy the baffled tyrant could afford his young and innocent victim was, to allow of her being beheaded instead of her Icing burnt alive. 1 ha-! nn account of Tie dosing scene by an eye-witness who was one of the guards at the execu- tion, and although, as a body, there is no- where a more dissolute set of irregular sol- diery than the Morocco Moors, yet he confessed to me that many of his vice- hardened ^companions could not restrain from their tear^, and that he himself could not look wilh dry eyes on a sight of such cold blooded atrocity. "This beautiful young creature was led out to where a pile ready for firing was raised for her last couch ; her long dar! hair flowing disheveled oft her shoulders looked arbMnd in vain for a heart and hand that could succor, though so many eyes pitied her : for the last time she was offered—with the CXecntrorfer and pyre in all their terror before her—her life, on condition of being fal-e to her God 5 she only asked for a few minutes for. prayer after which her throat was cut by the executioner, according io tho barbarous custom of the country, and her body con sutned on the fire."

[ T h e following estimate of the dimeibjons oftlic immense structure, from ••"Jcadley's Lettershoin I ta ly ,"Words an impressive view oi thatumivalled triumpli of :irchiiei:mre. Realizingthe vast nnd magnificent grandeur of the edifice,all biiitil ir works of modern nrt dwindle intocomparative insignificance ]

Now for a chapter of.statistics. 1 lialo

LINESSuggested by a visit to the city of Wash-

ington, in the 12th mouth of 1845.

Written for the Philadelphia Ci'izcn, by J. (J.W H I T T I K I I .

With cold nnd wintry moon liglitOn ye roof and steeples shed,

Shadow* waving with the 6un light

Fiom the grny sky overhead,Biondly, vaguely, all around me, lies the half-

buili town outspread.

Through this broad street restless ever,

Kbbs and ilows n humnn tide,Wave on wave, a human river—

Wealth nnd fashion side by side;Toller, idler, slave and master, in the same quick

current glide.

Underneath yon dome, whoso copingSpreads above them, vast nnd tall,

Grave men in (ho dust me gropingFor the largess, base and sin ill,

Which the hand of power is scattering, crun.bwhich from He table fall.

JJase of heart! They slowly barterHonor 's wealth for p u t y ' s pi.ice:

Step by mep oo Fiocdom's charterLeaving footprints of disgrace;

For to day's poor pittance, turning from the greathope of their race.

Yet when festal lamps arc throwingGlory round the dancer's hair,

Gold-dressed, like nn angel's, flowing

Backward on thesunsei air:And the low quick pulse of music boats its meas-

ures sweet and rare,

There to-night shall \voinnn*6 glances,Star-like welcome give to thorn,

Fawning fools, wiih' shy advances,

Seek to' tovrch1 their garment's hem.With the tongue of (Vmcry, glozing deeds which

God and Troth condemn.

From this glittering lie my visionTakes a broader, sadder lange,

Firil before me have aVijcn'

Other pictures dark and strange.

Fiom the p;irlor to the prison must ti.e scene nnd

witness change.

Hark! the heavy gate'is'swingingOn its hinges', liiirsh and slow";

One pale prison-lamp is flinging

On a fenrful group below,

Such a sight as leaves.- to'terror v/hutsoo'or it does

not show.

Iheni, but in no other way can you get. anidea of the size of St. Peters. 1 willnot give you feet and inches, but say thatif Trinity Church, New York, i.- Jtuishotlon the plan with which it was commenced,you could pile about twelve of them intoSt. Peter's and have considerable roomleft for walking about. By taking offthe steeples, you could arrange two rowsof them in the Church, three in a row,then clap on the steeples again under thedome, and they would reach u trifle morethan half way to the top. You could puttwo churches like the Trinity under thedome, and have the entire nave of theChurch arid both the side aisles whollyunoccupied. Take three Astor housesand place them lenglhwi.se, and theywould extend the length of St. Peter's—make a double row of them, and theywould fill it half way up to the roof, prettysnug. Thirty or forty conirnonchurchescouflbc stored away in it without muchtrouble, and the four columns that sup-port the dome arc each larger than an or-dinary dwelling house. I'nt this irsnothing—the marble—the statuary—thecosflv tombs—the architecture—the artare indescribable.

[The process of illuminating this vat Ifabric on the great days of the Church,with its appearance and died , i.> ttiusgraphically dclitjeated :J

I way too weary to give you in mylast-, a description of the closing u;> ofKapler Sunday. It is a principle in allCatholic ceremonies, never to wind oil'gradually as is top frequently the caseamong the Protestants, but to have thelasl display the most magnificent of all.Thus, on Easier Sunday, the closing upof Holy week, the Papal throne crowdsits entire pomp into its ceremonies, nndas, during the day, the interior of St.Peter's has done its utmost to magnify hisHoliness, BO at night the exterior must doits share of glorification. This greatbuilding, covering several acres, is illumi-nated on its entire outer :u fie*. It iscaused by suspending four thousand fourhundred lanterns upon it, covering it fromthe dome down. To acconipiisn this,men have to he lei down with ropes overevery edifice, ami left dangling there, formore than an hour. From the base • ofthe church, they look like insects creep-ing over the surface. Hanging down theprecipitous sides of the immense dome,

nice glittering over the darkness underit—the magnificent semi-circular colo-riadeS all inherent with light, and everyone hundred and ninety-two statues alongits top surmounted with a lamp, and thoimmense dome rising over all like amountain of mollen silver, in the deepdarkness around, so completely deludethe senses, that one can think of nothingbut a fabric suddenly lighted and hungin mid heavens. This effect, howeveris given only when one stands at a dis-tance—the Pincian hill, the spot fromwhich to view it. All around is buriedin deep darkness, except that steadilyshining glory. Not a sound is heard tobreak the stillness, and you gaze, andgaze, expecting every moment to see thebeautiful vision fade, but still it shinescalmly on.

This illumination lasts from eight tonine, and just as the bell of the Cathedralstrikes nine, sending its loud and solemnpeal over the city, a thousand four andseventy-five torches, arc suddenly kin-dled beside the lanterns. The changeis instantaneous and almost terrific. The

'Why . my dear fellow you've got it. Tenthousand at one and u q'tartcr a month, for sixyears, is nine thousand—a thousand yon owedme—ami you've just paid the ten. It's all ripht,my dear boy—a fair business transaction.' —Rcrc'Ue.

A YOUNG JEWESS OF TANGIER.We find an interesting article on the

Jews in the Missionary Chronicle copiedfrom an "Appeal for the Jewish Nation,"l.y E; Li !\ Jit ford, Esq.

It appears that nothing more is requiredto make a Christian, or a Jew a Mahom-etan, by their law, than the depositions oftwo witnesses of their having pronouncedthe words, "There is no God but God,and Mahomet is the Apostle of God."—Against this testimony the protestation^ ofthe Jews are vain, and the penalty of re-cantation is burning fit the slake.

There is a young Jewess of respecta-ble family residing in Tangier, summon-ed before the Cadi by two Moorj, who de-posed to her haviyg pronounced Ihcir pro-fession of faith. This she utterly denied.but in vain, and the Cadi decreed her con-formity to Islam ism on pain of death.—

The next moment old St. Peter'sagain draws its burning outline againstthe black .sky, and stands like a mountainof torches in the deep night, with a fierycross burning at the top. Ilow the glo-rious structure burns, yet unobnstunctl!The flames wrap it in their fierce em-brace ami vet not a single detail is lost intho conflagration. There is the noblefacade in all its harmony, and yet on fireThere are the immense eolonades waver-ing in the light, changed only in thatthey are now each a red marble shaft.—The statues stand unharmed, ami allfiery figures. The dome is a vast firc-ball in the darkness, yet ils distinct out-line remains as clear as at the first. Thewhole mighty edifice is there built all offlame—columns, frieze, cornice, win-dows, domes, cross—a temple perfect iievery part, flashing, swaying, burning inmill heavens.

The senses grow bewildered in gazingon its intense brilliancy, and thejudgmenpronounces it an optical illusion, unrealfantastical. Yet, the next moment istands corrected—that is St. Peter's flaming, unwasted, in the murky heavensHour after hour it blazes.ph, and the lastorch is yet uncxtinguished when Ihegra}twilight of morning opens in the cast.—This you sny is a gloriotu; spectacle ; yes.but it is Sabbath evening—ihe succeof,the apostle—the]spiritual head of thechurch—the vicc-gereul of God on cartl:has sanctified the Sabbath !>y this gloriouillumination in honor of the Son of God!'

But one foirgets all this in looking atthe illuminations, which it i.s impossibleto describe. There are two illumina-tions. The first is called the silver one,and commences about eight o'clock inthe evening. These four thousand fourhundred lamps,'arc so arranged as to re-veal the entire architecture of the build-ing. Every column, cornice, frieze,window—all the details ot the building,and the entire structure, are revealed ina soft, clear light, producing an effectindescribably pleasing, yet utterly be-wildering.

was his character in this respect, thafrom the moment of her being ordered toIlia piescnce, no one expected any othcresult—for few possibly imagined, nor didthe Sultan himself, that she would havethe courage to brave the alternative rathcr than abandon the faith of her fathersSuch, however, was the case. She wafirkt sent to the Scrail, where every moanwere employed to shake her constancythreats, blandishments, and the most brillianl promises were tried by turns, andwere equally unsuccessful. Even herrelations were allowed to sec her, to en-deavor by their persuasions to divert herfrom her resolution ; but with a firmnesswhich against such assaults could havebeen the effect only of the deepest con-viction, this young aud noble creatureheld fast her integrity, and calmly chosea horrible though honorable death, ratherthan the enjoyment of an ignominious ex-istence of shame and infamy.

"The Jews came forward with offers ofimmense sums of money to save her, buther fate was irrevocably decided, andthe only mercy the baffled tyrant couldafford his young and innocent victim was,to allow of her being beheaded instead ofher Icing burnt alive. 1 ha-! nn accountof Tie dosing scene by an eye-witnesswho was one of the guards at the execu-tion, and although, as a body, there is no-where a more dissolute set of irregular sol-diery than the Morocco Moors, yet heconfessed to me that many of his vice-hardened ^companions could not restrainfrom their tear^, and that he himselfcould not look wilh dry eyes on a sightof such cold blooded atrocity.

"This beautiful young creature was ledout to where a pile ready for firing wasraised for her last couch ; her long dar!hair flowing disheveled oft her shoulders

looked arbMnd in vain for a heart andhand that could succor, though so manyeyes pitied her : for the last time she wasoffered—with the CXecntrorfer and pyrein all their terror before her—her life, oncondition of being fal-e to her God 5 sheonly asked for a few minutes for. prayerafter which her throat was cut by theexecutioner, according io tho barbarouscustom of the country, and her body consutned on the fire."

he manner in which we are called upono;>i(f in all reformations. The assurhp-ion fs, i'that although we cannot vole,

If the Liberty party does rot design to obiainthe requisite power and govern the nation, it ienot expedient to continue a national organizivion.If the Liberty party does not aim «t nationalpower, it can do nothing diirectly. It can onlyBtnnd as a spectator, and look at the other par-tics without even a hope of ever supplantingthem, and wlmi it is understood by the otherparties that the Liberty party does not hope tocontrol the Government of the nation by its owndirect acticn, but lil'le influence will be cxcriedon the other parties by its existence; for it willthen have virtually said that its object is to em-body votea without any distinct view of the man-uer in which they nro to be applied to the accom-plishment of any particular object. This planof embodying votes without bringing them t<bear and without any hope of bringing them tobear directly at a future day, upon the objectsof national legislation, is in reality the withdraw-ing of so much political influence from effectual.action upon the interests of the community, midleaving the friends and ahettois o( Slavery to goon in their own way, with less fear from the po-liiical influence of ami-slavery men in this po-sition than in any other position in which theycould place themselves, unless they were to re-fuse to vote nt all. A6k any sensible man olwhat use it will bo for the Liberty party to be'come very numerous while they determine to donothing, and ho will tell you it is of no use QIall. and ho will no» josn it.

If the Liberty party is disposed to give up thehope of acquiring national power, and depend <orits political bticcces upon its indirect Influence up-on other parties, the object can bo accoinpl.ihedbetter xcithntt a nntionn! organization than withit. The ami slavery men of each county, con-gressional district or mate enn vote with eitherparty, or not vote at all. or voto for part of oneticket and part of the other, ay that the votewhich i» given and the vote which is withheld,shall be used in that manner which shall be inobtbeneficial to the slave. The members of theJibert v party would be prepared to do this business in an independent manner, after havingbeen abused by both of the o'her parties /or anumber of years in succession.

Now Mr. Editor, 1 am not in favor of shedissolution of the Liberty party. 1 want theLiberty pnrty to adopt a system of national le-gislation upon all important subjects which mustnecessarily be octcd upon by the national go-vernment; such a system us the interests of thecountry require. I believe this would be themeans of speedily augmenting its humbers (wiihmembers who would sustain it, and not such awould cat it up, as might have been three yearsago) sufficiently to give general confidence io itefinal success; and confidence in its success-would be the means oi its success. But, 1 donot expect the Liberty Party will adopt this sys-tem. I expect they will decide agaiust it, andthat such decision will prove equivalent to a decision to disorganize tho Party. It is not e.xpedicnt for tho party to divide on this quesiion un-less a majority be in favor ol adopting a ge^fralsystem of national legislation. A small minorityof the party might have succeeded in this enterprise if it had been commenced two years ago,bu: it could not now. There is so much ami-slavery feeling in the country that, when it shallmove politically it will require a broad road towalk in; broader than can be prepared by a smallminority of the Liberty party without the rcqui-silo time.

At 8 o'clock. P. M. forty of us got intofour stages to ride all night, after riding a hundrcd miloa in half a day. This way of travellingfollowed up Hicesmntl/i makes it eocm verymuch hko woik. Tho night wv.s very comfort-able, but tho road wassindy and very dusty frommuch uso and k>ng dry weather, so thai we woreforced to look within the coach for sources ofamusement and happiness. Our complementconsisted of nine persons inside—four Jcdies andfive gentlemen. Among the latter, wo recog-nized oxr old friend, tho Liberty singer. Geo.W. Clarke, the publisher of the first Tempera neepaper in this State. Friend Clarke is a radicalin about every thing. Among his oilier pecul-iarities, he is a '-Woman's Rights mm" of thestraightes! kind, being an advocate «>f the abso-lute equality of the condition of iho se.\es—Some allusions to iho subjnet brought on a dis-cutijion on Education, Love, Courtfrhrp-, Mar-riage.

cs. and is ns likely to originate in one sex asthe other; and therefore the rigid rule of societyby which a lady is debarred from expressing herfeelings of attachment to the object of her affec-tions until he, in his sovereign pleasure has firstsignified his preference for her, is unnatural, unjust, and unworthy of regaid. We merely men-tion the premises and conclusions. Thc;r cor-rectness and propriety must Le determined bysome one possessing a more profound knowl-edge of human nature than we can lay claim to.

St. Joseph, the proposed termination of :1 cCentral Railroad, is fifty-six miles from Kalamazoo, and is rather an uninteresting sand hill.—Tho village is email, and was onco famous forone or more Wildc.u Bank?. Its coinmercialbusiness we should judge is not large. Here wetook the steamboat Champion, for Chicago. GOmiles distant. On our way we passed MichiganCiiy, which is said to be a place of considerabletrade, although tbo eiiy was so imbedded in sandhills that we could see scarcely any of it fromthe wharf. The chore of the lake is not at allpicturesque or romantic. Jt presents one con-tinued sand bank, of no great elevation, sur-mounted by a grove of stunted pines.

At 5 P. M. we landed at Chicago. Its reseml.lance to \he eastern dues in the appearance olits streets struck us a: first sight. The popuh-tion ia about 1 "2,000. Tho buildings are of woodand briek, many of them three and four storieshigh. We judged from tho nppcarnncc of things-that stones did not grow in that country. Thesidewalks were built out with plank, about tcrfeet wide, and were chc ply made, nnd veryconvenient. We wish our Ann Arbor citi-zens would have enterprise enough to takea pattern from them. Tho *i;c oi the city ienearly level, only some ten or twelve feel abovethe level of the lake. Hence ail the water In thtcity must be similar in flavor to the water othe lake, and hence all their manufacturing musbe done by ateam. Chicago owes its growthalmost entire'y to its commercial bussnesi andposition. It has numerous large hotels, onion?which the American Temperance House welldeserves support, as its accommodations are goodand its charges moderate.

In the evening, i preliminnry meeting was heldin the tent on the public square. This tent,

-which was brought from Oberlin, is estimated t<ihold from ihreo to five thousand persons whenclosely filled. We should think nenrly twthousand were present this evening. The pro-ceedings were not of nny great interest. Re-ports of the state of the cnuse in the differentStates and Territories represented, wore made,but they presented nothing remarkable. The inlislavery fci.lings aud printipUt Wf re everywhere on t'io gam; hut this was not in all c.-isc--true of the antislavery organization.

The pieliminary mooting was continued onWedncfidr.y morning until ten o'clock, when tin-Convention organized by appointing Hun. J. G.Carter, of Massachusetts, President. He madean excellent presiding oiiicer.

On a motion to prepare an address to the cler-gy, an animated debate sprung up involving theconnection of the clergy generally with the unti-slavery eaune. Expressions of strong indignalion and disgust at the timeserving policy ota Inrgc portion of the clergy, were madeby several speakers, and were evidently ap-proved by a large part ol the audience.—One speaker argued that every moral and reli-gious motive hud been used with a large part of

the clergy, for J5 years, in viiin: that these mo-tives had till failed borai/so there w;is another nndmore powerful out? which hnd not been applied—'the hrc i I and but cr iirg't-iiwtit;' a n d as tliia w a s

In thealteinoon,letters were read from Messrs.Hii-ney, Goodell, S. P. Chase, Lewis of Ohio,and others. The letter of Win. Gjodcll, wasone of the beet specimens of composition we haveseen from his pen. It took ground for the rightsof \i.t men, and for withdrawal from proslaverychurches. That of .Mr. Birney was similar inreference to tho political part of the quesiion.—S. P. Chase, one of the leading Liberty men ofOhio, in hid letter, avowed himself in favor of adiscussion by Liberty men of all political ques-tions, ns individuals, in their papers, and in theirConventions;—each local Convention expressingsuch opinion upon them as it might deem proper.and yet loaving oach other local Convention totuke different or opposite ground, if it pleased,recognizing, however, no pnrty test except theabolition of slavery. Mr. Chase carncsily advis-ed the calling of a National meeting, for ihe pur-pose of forming an antislavery Leaguo, irres-pective of party. This last proposal confirmedour previous impressions, that the Liberty partyof Ohio do not expect or wish to be a permanentNational party, but nre ready when an opportu-nity ofl'crs, to merge themselves in some otherbody.

In the cvei.ing Mr. Bibb commenced his mrrative. which was listened to with profound at-tention and fntercst by three or four thousandpei.'ons.

On Thursday, ihe Business Committee reporied a series of excellent resolutions. Tho dis-cussion of the second occupied nearly all day.—It read as follows:

"Resolved. That while we regard the ques.u'on of Slavery as the greatest political questionnow extensively agitated before thf couniiy, andarc determined not 10 sacrifice «»r defer the cau6eof freedom to nny other political measure, wewill novcnhclrss sustain, a« important and esson-ti.il principles, the equal political and civil rightsof all men. and will oppose the principle nnd thtpractice of partial and exclusive privileges.wliethr in reference to business or suffrage or eligibil-

ity to public stations: recognizing no legalizedprerogatives on account of birth, wealth, learn-ing or complexion."

T|iis was introduced by the Committee at therequest of Mr. Beckley, merely 10 test the ques-tion, whether we aie to be only a Black Man'saarty. or whether he will sustain the rijihs ofalt. men alike. This resolution waa passed i.ntn-imouslij six years n^o by the first "national Lib-erty Convention, but was rejected by t'ns Con-vention, only about one hundred voting in fav >rof it. All alter the word "measure" having beenstricken out, it was then passed.

The discussion took a wide range. Most ofihe speakers were in favor of iis principles, bu'were afraid lest its adoption would give groundfor erroneous commentaries, and give politicalcapital to certain friends in Michigan ond else-where! In cxplnnatinn ot' the course of theConvention on thisqucstion. it is to be observed,that fou"-fifihs of the speakers present were cler-gymen: and as their attention had been directedmainly to the moral aspects of Slavery, they werrnot in our opii.iin well qualifi 'ii to tuke the bestaround on its political relations. Geo. W.Clurke of New York. Mr. Code ing. of Illinois,and other gentlemen unknown to us. supportedt'ie resolution. The result coincided .with 0111expectations We see plainly that the Libertyparty ia determined to retsin its present positionas a mere temporary Black Man's party, refue ngto er\y or do any thing for the While Man.—This course was achocatcd by Rev. A. St. Clair.Jlcv. O. Lovejoy, and others of Illinois, by somefrom Wisconsin and Indiana, and by Messrs. M.Harrison, Trcadwell and Bibb from Michigan.—Rev. G. Becklcy and ourself supported the res-olution, and tried to make ihe Convention seedistinctly the main point at issue. But their de-termination te make a six years retrogadc pro-gress could not he prevented.

Tins singing by the Chicago Choir nnd by Mr.Clarke, added greatly to the interest of the meetinp. Among oilier pieces. Mr. Clarke suneWhiitier's " Yankee Girl" and Longfellow's"Escclsior," with very great applnuse. It

wortiiy of remark that singing is becoming morecommon in public assemblies of al! kinds fromthe revelries of the Circus ard the Ethiopia!.Minstrels to the most soleu.n meetings of largoreligious bodies. Music has been found very ef-fectual in political campaigns, and in the Tem-perance cause; and thousands can remember andappreciate the words 01 a sons, who cannot com-prehend a connected logicil argument. Insome Siato Prisons it has been introduced wiihgood effect.

In the evening ?.Ir. Ilamlin, Ex-Whig Mem-ber of Congress from Ohio, addressed a vast congregntion. We heard only a part of hie discourse,as we were obliged to leave in the evening boati>r St. Joseph. lie proclaimed hiuiscif nn Aboluionist of fifteen years standing, nnd discussedCla»'s nomination, Annexation, &c. Of thefurther proceedings of the meeting we will ap-prise our readers next wrek.

We enlarged our editorial ncquaininnce byin introduction to Messrs. E slma:i nnd Wheelerof the Chicago Citizen. Mr. Gaeton of iheWisconsin Freeman, and Mr. Jones of the Westera Aurora. This waa one of the largest west-ern assemblies we have seen; and as we lookedover the multitudes of faces, their frank, inde-pendent, and go-a-hcadative expression highlypleased us. When ihe peop'o oi tho West canbe truly represented in Congress, their influencewill be felt greatly in the national council*.—Tiie fact is, that western men are only a speciesof the genus Yankee.

At 10 P. M. we started for homo in the steam-boat, and finding al! the births preoccupied, l.keSir John Moore, we wrapper! our cloak uboutU8, and "lay alone in our glory" on .In* most

eligible portion of the deck we could find. At 7next morning we took the stage at St. Joseph.In tho afternoon a debate on Abolitionism sprungup, and we were quite surprised to find that inatscrting that %<all men are horn equal," Tlios.Jefferson nnd the Continental Congress, withour-*c-lf were ulmost voted down. Tho doctrinewas positively denied bj several of th« passen-geiii, and in defiance of Blackstone, l'ulev, andother eminent writers, it was roundly affirmedthat men were born stare*, and in these casesthe master were justifiable in holding them a*sueh. So difficult it is for even sensible men todivest themselves of the impression, that all theirnatural righ's originated in human legislation,i utead of beiug Gjd-^ivcn and hoaven- descen-ded.

About icn o'clock, when distant a few milesfrom Knljini/.oo. a heavy thunder shower cameupon U9 accompanied with great darkness: andas the coach in the rear of us was unproviJejwiih lights the driver upset the c.irriago, willinine passengers. Quite a number of them wereconsiddrabK'ihurt. There* were three ladies in thecoach. They being righted up. we i r icecdedagain wiih only a single dim light, tho l.imps nothaving been trimmed before we started. Theconsequence was trial after proceeding n few roi's,our charioteer drove on to a largo log, upsettingnine of us. After n little, umidst the total dark-ness, we craw led out of the side of the stage intotho mud, which was a foot deep, and awaited inthe rain the return of tho messenger who wentback half n mile to get a light. We escaped withonly n sprain in wrist: but Mr. Beckley was bad-ly cut in the head, and several others were in-jured more or less. Some <.f the passengers thenwent on throui;h the mud afoot carrying lights,and the stnees followed, and in this kind of pro-cession at midnight we arrived at Kalamr.zoo.—Had tho accident occurred from the bad condi-tion of the roadfl or any unavoidable cause, thepassengers would havo borne the evil withoutcomplaint: but when the lives and limbs of eight-een persons were put in jeopardy by 6heer care-lessness, for the want of a sixpence worth of oiland five minutes labor in trimming the lamps, nojustification can be made by the proprietors.—One of our passengers, who was considerablyhurt on the occasion, had b'eu iipsei in the stngeabout a week before near the samo place, and forihe same reason—the want of light to the coach-es. We trust that either self interest or iiumnii-tty will induce the proprietor to remedy theevil.

We arrived at home on Saturday, after nn ab-sence of five days, having trivellei 4-JvJ miles,and sqent two days at the Convention. Thisrapid uavelling, it is true, almost annihll.iicstime and space, and lessens expense, yet it willbe foil ml to tax strongly the physical energies ofthose who follow it fora length of time.

N E W HAMPSHIRE.

The recent political revolution in this

State is most remarkable. The Old Hun-

ker Democrats have ruled the State for

21 years. Now there is a Whig Govern-

or, elected by the W'hig, Indeqendenl

and Liberty members of the Legislature :

n Democratic Senator in Congress, (Mr.

Hale,) for six years elected by the same :

a Liberty Senator in Congress, (Mr.

Cilley,) elected by the same; (term ex-

pires next March) aLiberty Clerk of the

House ; and we presume all other vacan-

cies will be filled by the allied forces

from their own ranks.

Col. Cilley has been a member of the

Liberty Party for several years. By

them he was at one time nominated for

Congress, and at the same time by the

Whigs for Governor. He kindly and

respectfully declined the last nomination,

saving that he had cast in his lot with the

party pledged to the overthrow of Slavery.

The whig.sthen nominated Gov. Colby.

But the Whig papers, with their usual

meanness, now every where represent

him as a whig senator.

It is no doubt gratifying to Liberty

men to hear that their candidates are

elected to high offices even in proslavery

New Hampshire. But the price paid

for the triumph—the consistency, if not

the very existence of the party—must be

also considered. It is a first principle of

the Liberty party not to support pros-

lavcry parties or men. Yet the twelve

Liberty Representatives of New Hump-

shire unanimously voted for Gov. Colby,

a man who is in full fellowship with

thousands of Slaveholders, nnd will doubt-

less vote for one for President 1848,

should he be nominated by the Whigs.

Now, when Colby comes up for re-elec-

tion next year as a Whig candidate why

may not the 10,000 Liberty voters of N.

Hamsphire support him with the same

consistency that the 12 Liberty Represen-

tatives did this year?

The Whigs, Liberty men, and Young

Democrats of Michigan and other States

might form a similar alliance, were they

so disposed, and turn out of power the

corrupt political party that governs us.

But what would be the gain to the cause

of Liberty? This promoting the cause of

freedom by an alliance with pro-slavery

Whigs and Democrats is rather a risky

business. When the operations should

be all completed, little or nothing would

be gained, while much might be lost.—

Wrc, therefore, are not disposed greatly to

rejoice at tho LiLe.ty-Democratic-Whig

triumph in New Hampshire till we see

the result of it.

U " The bluster of ihe Western members ofCongress decs not save them from defeat anddisgrace. How long will it be before they willdiscover that a Slaveocracy reigns over this nu-tioni The election of Mr. MCDITHK, of S. C.to be Chnirman of the Senate Committeo on For-eign Relations in the place of Mr. AM.EX, olOhio, resigned, ia exceedingly significant. Al-len was one of the most boisterous of iho 51 4()'s,and McDuifie one of tho moderate 49's. TheWest never will have its proper influence in thenational councils till its delegates can stand intheir places, erect ond independent, and bid de-fiance to the Slave Power.

TO TIIE ANTISLA.VERY LADIESOF MICHIGAN.

The Executive Committeo of ihe State Anti -.Slavery Society havo designed to address you up-on the subject o<"efficient organized, co-operaiiopwith them in the noble cause, of Emancipationfor some weeks past, but the ubsence ol some oftheir number upon whom iho duty would moreparticularly devolve, and ihe preatinfi engage-ments of others, havo compelled them to delayit until the present. And they are most happytoob-crvc ihat many of you have already nnticipnted their request, and commenced your laborswith a zeal and energy that gives promise of abun-dant success. Their address at the prexent limemay therefore be regarded ntther as congratula-tory upon the auspicious commencement of yourlabors, than an nppcul dirocl for their comn enco-nient. Although so often ihe theme of highculogium; yet nothing is more underrated thanthe power of female influence, when exerted ina righteous cause. Wo do not deem ii needfulat the present to discuss and establish ihe factof this influence. Al! acknowledge its existence,and no man with tho common B( nubilities of ournsituro but has too often felt it. Man's influ-ence ovor his felbw man though powerful, isoften like iho mountain torrent which rushingimpetuous onward, bears nil before it for a sea-son, and then leaves desolation in its track: butWoman's influence, distilling like the dew ofHeaven, gentlo, constant nnd no lisa cfl"ec:iul,fertilizes and refreshes where it goes, and simlsover the heart with irresistless power, whichprompis to action. It is this influence we seekto. invoke. When has it ever been solicited in aholier cause? Need we point to our guilty conn-try bleeding at every pore—agitated, distracted,and dishonored in iho sight of iho nations ofihe earth for its participation in a gniliy war witha peighboring naiion lor ihe sole purpose of ex-tending the curse ol SI.AVKKY 1 Need we pub-lish tho fact that this Heaven-daring sin. grownhoary under the very wings Of ihe winctiiary.has so entrenched itself in the American Churchas to bntMo the efforts of the wise and the goodto cast it out, and thus secure its certain speedyoverthrow T Or point io iib degrading, brulal-i/.ing influences upon your own sex—subjectingthem by the will or caprice of a Iordling master,to be torn by the ruthless hand of violence fromhusband, faiher, child, and all those holy, do-mestic ties, which tend lo sweeten life's b:ttercup, and enhance a thousand fold its j.iyo, left tothe prey of lawless avarice or lust ! ! From ihemultitude of painful f.ie.ts which the fluid ol Amer-ican Slavery is daily producing, we would pointyou to ono narrated in the last ^Signal of Lib-eity" ns having occurred in the City of NewOrleans—headed ''Poor Pauline." Jf there i9not power in that simple recital of fact to nwa-k«?n all the huly indignation of your hearts, andairay ihcm in desperate, ceaseless confhci,against a system which can by any possibility bemade to work stieh brutal outrage upon yoursex, we know not what can do it I In the sou!stirring language of another, when contemplatingsuch facts may we not ask—

Can you behold unheeding.Life's holiest loelmgs crushed ?

While WuMvs's HEAKT is bleeding.Shall WOMAN'S VOICE be hushed? ?

Wo cannot but believe that with the full out-goings ol benevolent hearts, you will put forthunited and untiring energies to dctstroj a systemwhich is thus in nn especial manner brutalizingand dishonoring your own sex. Be not movedfrom your stendfastness, by the idlo taunt bywhich some brainless ones may seek to assailyour offii'ts as thoy may tauntingly enquire whatcan woman do in a cause so intei woven in Jhepolitical frame work of society? Doubtless thesesame objectors would evidence tlicir hypocrisyby assiirting to others where it would better suittheir iurn, that it was purely a moral enterprise,and should nof ciuer the political arena.

T H E LESSON.

It does seem to us that the Democrat*

(!) of the West must be more stupid than

brutes, if they cannot read their shameful

degradation in the settlement of theTexns

and Oregon questions. As the paws of

the cat were used by the monkey to aid in

pulling his chesnuts out of the fire when

he was afraid of using his own paws, so

the slaveholders have used the Western

Democrats to annex Texas. True, both

questions were placed by the Baltimore

Democratic Convention in 1844 upon the

same apparent footing. Southern Slave-

holders & Western Democrats united ap-

parently in hcartyconcord for the acquisi-

tion of both. But the South was vt>n

urgent that Texas should be" annexed //Y.s7

and it was done. Then the West set up

a great shout so that the heavens rang

with it—"ALL OF OREGON OR NONE!"—

FIFTY FOUR FORTY OR FIGHT!" This

was terribly alarming to some, but our

readers will recollect that we assured

them the noise was perfectly harmless.

A few leading spirits down south could

curb and handle these wild animals witl

the same ease and skill with which Von

Amburgh and I lerr Driesbach handle and

control the roaring lions. And so it

proved. The treaty with England has

been confirmed by the Senate by a vote

of three fourths of the whole1 in its favor

41 to 14.

W ell, what say the boisterous partisan

of war of the result? Those who were

ready to denounce evel-y 19 man as a

"British Tory" "and an* enemy of hit

country," arc now loud in praising Mr.

Polk for securing the very result they sc

much dreaded. If Mr. Polk had not

talked pretty big to the British, they ar-

gue that we should have obtained ne'part

of Oregon, although the present basi

has been before substantially offered by

\e British, and rejected by us. Truly

ie somersets of these politicians exceed

all the performances of Sam Patch. But

the most marvellous part of this exhibi-

tion is the wonderful celerity nnd oper

mouthedness with which the rank and file

swallow down every thing that is told them

by their leaders.

The Ann Arbor Jounal and Signal olLiberty are out upon the editor of thePatriot for his impiety in attacking aminister of the Gospel for what he tookthe liberty to say in attending upon thesolemn duties of his office upon the Sab-bath.—Jackson Gazette.

Not exactly true, so far as the Signal is

concerned. We did not deem it lini\)iclii

in the editor of the Patriot to "altack a

minister of the Gospel." Ministers an(

editors are on a level with each other, a;

other men are, and may properly discuss

and attack each others assertions and doc-

trines in all cases where they esteem them

to be erroneous. We do not hold to the

existence of any class so highly exaltec

that it is "impiety" to puestion their in-

fallibility.

D * We mention to the credit of the Libertyjmpcre, that only two of them—the Bangor Ga-zette, and the American Citizen of Philadel-phia—nre supporters of the present villainouwar with Mexico.

Amusing Scene in Matamoras.—Thehigh price of cotton goods in Matamoras.in consequence of the Mexican tariff, iswell known.—Several enterprising "Yan-kees," since Gen. Taylor, has laken pos-session of tho ciiy, have "moved in," open-ed atores and are soiling goods on "ch ' -pprinciples"—about one third of the usuaMexicon prices, but double tho usual American prices.

Il ia an amusing scene to witness fhecrowds around ihese stores, composed ofthe mixed people of the ciiy. Finelydressed women, rancheros, naked Indiansand negroes, all eager to purchaso goods,and jabbering good, bad and indifferentSpanish, with a rupidity truly appalling toa phlegmatic Anglo-American.—(FreePress,

C. J. McNulty, the late clerk of the House ofReprasentu:ives in Congress, has gone to Mexicous a volunteer private, in a company raised atMt. Vernon, Ohio.

FROM T H E ARMY.

Tho steamer Now York has arrived at

New Orleans, bringing ndvices from

Point Isabel lo the 9th ult., and Galves-

ton papers to the 11th. News is anx-

iously expected from Col. Wilson. He

left Matnmoras on the 7th, for the pur-

pose of taking possession «f Reynoso,

wiih 500 men. It is stated that Canales

and all his force, consisting of from 11

to 1800 cavalry, are concentrating there,

nnd wold no doubt show fight. Col. W.

liad been subsequently reinforced, increa-

sing his force to 800 men.

The news of Gen. Taylor's promotion

to the grade of Brevet Major General,

has diffused joy through all ranks in th©

army and in the State of Texas.

The delegation from the Louisana le-

gislature, was to leave Point Isabel on

the 7th instant, on thoir way to Matamo-

as, to present the thanks of that body to

old " Rough and Ready."

There was a little sickness among tho

volunteers, arising from the change of

food, and condition of life. They will

soon get inured.

A letter was received in town yester-

day, which stated that Gen. Arista hnd

sent proposals to Gen Taylor for an ar-

mistice, and that he had' established his

headtjuarters at Monterey with 15,000

meii. Gen. Taylor" is said to hnve sent

back an answer that <l he would meet

Gen. Arista at Monterey."

The Americans have established a

neA'spnper at Matnmorns, printed in both

the Spanish nnd English languages. All

the principal citizens hnd returned to

Matamoras, and business had been re-

sumed wiih increased activity and ener-

gy.— [N. O. Papers.

Tho first section of this bill, which be-came a law on the 12th inst., provides shutthe President, with ihe advice and consontdf the Sanate, may appoint one MajorGeneral and two Brigadier Generals, inaddition to the present military establish.ment, with the proviso "that when the warwith Mexico shall be terminated by a de-finitive treaty of peace duly concluded andratified, the number of major generals inthe army shall be reduced to one, and thenumber of brigudier generals shall be re-duced to two i and the President of theUnited States is authorized and directed toselect from the whole huniber which maython be in office, without regard to the dateof thoir commissions, tho number to be re-tained, and cause the remainder to be dis-charged from the service of tho UnitedStates."

Sec. 2 gives tho President the right, un-der the act of May 13, 1846, fo call intoservice such of thy general officers of themilitia as the service, in his opinion mayrequire, and to organize into brigades anddivisions the forces authorized by said act.

•Sectioned and 4 provide that the fluidand slafl'of A seperate battalion of volun-teers, uiwf or the «aid act, shall be one leiufcoiwntooioiieJ or major; one adjutant, with j account,the rank of lieutenan-U one sergeant major,one quarter master sergeant, and a chieftjuglar or principal musician, according tocorps ; and thai tUo Presklent may limitI'ne. privates in any volunteer company,according to his discretion, at from <M to100; and that with every additional vol-unteer company an additional 2d lieutcn.ant may be allowed and accepted.

Sec. 6 provides that when volunteers ormilitia ar« called itito the service of lUcUnited States in such numbers that theofficers o! the quartermaster, cotnnissary,and medical deparUbente, authorized bylaw, are not sufficient lo provido for supplying quartering, transporting and fur-nishing them with the requisite medicalattendance, it shall be lawful for the Presidem to appoint, with the advice and con-sent of the Senate, as many additional offi-cers of said departments as the servicemay require, not exceeding one quarter-master and one commissary for each brig-ado, with the rank of major, nnd one as-sistant quartermaster with the rank ofcop-;an, one assistant commissary with therank ol captain, one surgeon and one ns-sis'nnt surgeon, for each regiment, whobhall be allowed the same pay and emolu-ments as are now allowed to officers of thosame desciiptioti and grades in those de-partments respectively; and that they boSubject to tho rules and articles of war.and continue in service only so long astheir services sltali be required, in connex-ion with the militia and voldnteerX

Sec* 0 provides for the appointment ofae many additional assistant adjutant gen-erals as may be nenecssfary", the number nothowever to exceed 4, to serve only solong as the exigences of the service mayfender it necessary.

Sections 7 and 8 relate chiefly to pro-motions, and that in Ihe quartermaster de-partment, promotions to tho rank of majorshall' be made from captains in tho army,and thai nppointments in ihfi line, and thegeneral staff, which confer equal rank inhie army, shall not bo heid by the sameoflicer at the same time; and when anydflicor of the staff who may have been ta-llenfrom the line shall, in Virtue of Konior-i\y, hive obtained or bo entitled to promo-tion Ida grade in his"regiment equal to thecommission he may hold in the ttlafl, thesaid officer Btian vacate his commissionin the line.

The litli and last section provides th'ntthe Colonel tfr senior officer of the ord-nai ce department rs authorised to enlistfor tho service of fhdt department as many master armorers, master carriage ma-kers, blacksmiths and laborers as the pub-lic service, in his judgment, under the di-rections of the Secreiury for the Depart-ment of War, may require.

CASSIUS M. CLAY.Ambition—a very great desire for pub-

lic distinction—is one of the predominanttraits in' Mr. Clay's character. It hasbeen the source of most of his inconsis-tencies of rfefion, and it ha3 now sent himto Texas, at the head of a company ofcavalry, to figlit the battles of Slavery,instead of remaining at home, a moralhero, to labor in the cause of human free-dom. The announcement of this factwas received with general incredibility byhis northern friends ; but now that it isfully confirmed, their disappointment isvery great. The N. Y. Tribune ex-presses great surprise an<l regret at thismovement, and the Liberty papers regardit as fatal to his future antislavery influ-ence. In whose hands the the True A-meric'an is left we know not: but it is evi-dent that if he has left it, its churin hasgone. The Philadelphia Citizen repre-sents that/or sometime life 1mshad but. littleto do with it arid thrftit has oecn publishedby a northern man chiefly on northern

By this military expedition, Mr. Clayundoubtedly hoped to regain his lost popu-larity in Kentucky, where the war is verypopular. But he has so strongly con-demned the support of the w*ar, that noth-ing more forcible than his own languagecan be adduceu to convict himself of thegrossest delusion or the blackest infamy.Hear him in his paper respecting thisMexican war,lwo weeks before he started.

"Americans, sons of YVushington, ofAu.un.s, of Franklin, of Jefferson, have wecome to this? Shall we prove ourselveswilling traitors to the liberties of men?—Shall we shed our blood in such a dam-nable cause? No! let us rise in the oncemighty strength of our illustrious sireSjtheunconquerable power of a just and freepeople nnd say to those infamous tyrants,withdraw your army from nnoth cr's soil—restore the constitution of our unhappycountry—and let slavery, the cause ofall our woes, ccusc on the whole conti-nent!"

This is just, noble, manly, Christianpatriotic. The next we hear of him he ison his way to Mexico, a voluntecr,readyif nccesaary, to -'shed his blood in such adamnable 'cause/ ' If he be so inconsis-tent on this subject, in what can we trushim?

After he left an 'address to his readersappeared in the True American, fowhich we must make room next week.—A single sentence will show its tenor.

"Our opinion, is, that the war, so un-justly and wickedly begun, should bepressed with vigor, it is the only alter-native left."

Common sense, reason, justice and hisown article just quoted, leach us that anycourse of action, "unjustly and wickedlybegun," should be ceased from immedi-ately. Not so Cassius. Having now-enlisted in the war, he is for "pressing itwith vigor !" Is this the sentiment ofthe man who has been extolled to the veryheavens in the Liberty papers? We haveever aimed to do Mr. Clny justice, andwe think wo have. We have freely ac-corded to him, on many occasions, no-ble feelings, impulses, purposes aud ac-tions: but we have not yet been convincedthat he possesses that depth and compre-hensiveness of moral principle, & that eta*bMity of character which arc indispensablein the character of the moral hero.

each ; on capital invested in manufac-ures, \ of one per cent.; and on goldind silver ware, 10 per cent., ad valo-rem. IIis hour was consumed in advo-cating this amendment. Me estimatedho revenue that would be raised underhis amendment, from these sources, at

Ho says,—"Sup-pose part of the people iri your town are infavor of increasing the rum shops—partaro for having them as they are, nndanother part aro for putting down allrum shops.

Horrse, Lenox, writes as follows to theeditor of the Massachusetts Ploughman :

For the last ten or twelvoyenrs, I havebeen in the habit of preserving <jreencurrants in considerable quantities, fordomestic use, find them not only a luxury.but a great convenience. My mode olpreserving them is simpily this: I gatherlho currants while green or before theyturn red, put them into dry glass bottle*,cork and seal them in the cellar, in sucha; position ns is most convenient. In thismanner green currants have been pres-erve in my cellar for years. 1 have alsopreserved goosberries in the same manner,and with equal success.- I have greencurrant pins on my table at all seasons ofthe yea'r, when other green fruit cannot bereadily optained. And if you, or any ofyour friends, will call at my house, 1shall be happy to* wait upon, and furnishyou with green currant pie>, at any seasonof the year.
