House Of Representative yesterday and We
csu.d wish we never might gain. II is 10 be
feared, however, that the remainder Of the
present session will bitnoihing much BET
ter. The Members are exhausted with pro-
tracted sittings OF six or eight hours day for
weeks In succession but there is no better
prospect OF happy termination of the pres
ent session than there was a month ago. Ev
cry indication yesterday was against it,
Should these indications fail, we shall rejoice
IS we would over The unlocked for recupers-
ton OF dear friend, whom the ablest physl
Clans had abandoned in despair. I'M.
II is worthy of remark, says the Franklin
Gazette, that in taking the question in the
House Of Representatives, on the third Read
irg of the Resolution on the subject Of Ms
souri,, thai Mr.. Edwards and Mr. Barton of
North Carolina, Mr.. Randolph and Mr. Gar
nett of Virginia, voted against the resolution,
and two southern members did not vote The
resolution was therefore rejected by the votes
of members from the south, and Missouri may
thank FIVE or six OF her southern friends for her
rejection.

M BARNARD BARTON.

Thou hast thy beauties, sterner ones, own,
Than those of thy precursors; yet to thee
Belong the charms of solemn majesty,
And naked grandeur. Awful is the tone
OF thy tempestuous nights. when clouds are blown
BY hurrying winds across the troubled sky:
Pensve, when softer breezes family sigh
Through Ieaaess boughs, with ivy overgrown.
Thou hast thy decorations too, although
Thou art austere; thy studded mantle, gay
With icy brilliants, which as proudly glow
AS erst Golconda's; and thy pure array
OF regal ermine, when drifted snow
Envelope nature till her features seem
Like pale, but lovely ones, seen when we dream.

upon incessant industry and integrity, de-
Ponds upon patrons Of the noblest, the most
exalted kind; they are the creators of for
tune and fame, the founders of families,
and never can disappoint or desert you.
They control all human dealings, and turn

Marriage. all the festivals that
enliven the chequered scene Of human
life, marriage is the most genuine. The
garland and the festooD, the sporriye sally
are all appropriate. The triumph Of a
conqueror Is forced and atroeious spec.
tacle. He comes home from the fields OF
murder, from blazing towns, from every
complication Of human profligacy, and be
is welcomed with flowers. But the spen.
dor and the gaiety of marriage are I'm.
artificial. A youth and virgin, 10 all
the pride Of unfolding beauty and hope.
are brought together to be united in the
most sacred bonds. This is the emblem
and the archetype of all that is most adj
rnirablc in earth or heaven. Charity, the
love Of orr country, and the love Of our
species, are copied from it. The mys.
FERROUS union Of Christ and his church, is
nnfolded to US 10 sacred writ, under the
figure of a bridegroom and his bride. All
The affections Of human life grow out Of
marriage. Cicero says they are all com
prehendedin the love Of our country it
is more strikingly true, that they are all
the just and infaliibie consequence OF the
uuptial tie.

POETRY.
From Bzaekyeeas Edinburgh Magazine.

From Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine
THE SILENT EVE.
THE shades of night are Fastening down,
To steep in blue the mountains crown;
The sky is cloudless and serene;
The winds are pillowed; and the scene
So beautiful, so wild, SO sweet,
Where forests, fields, and waters meet
Is bathed in such delicious hues,
Beneath the twiIight's falling dews,
That man, afar from sorrows sphere,
Might muse away his anguish here;
While, DER his erring thoughts subdued,
That quiet tranquillizing mood,
That tone of harmony would steal,
Which poets feign, and angels feel.
Earth answers to the hues above
The music ceases in the grove,
While not breeze, in wandering, stirs
The branches Of the silent frs.
That stretch their azure cones on high,
And shoot into the lucid sky.
Lo in the south silver star
With amber radiance shines afar,
The eldest daughter Of Abe night,
In glory warm, in beauty bright:
Thou diamond in the painless dome
OF azure, whittier dost thou come!
Far--far within the orbless blue,
A tiny lustre sparkles through
With distant and unsteady light,
To catch the eye, then mock the sight;
Till, as the shades Of darkness frown.
And throw their viewless surtains down,
The very veil that nantes earth
Awakens thee to brighter birth,
And bids thee glow, with purer ray,
A lily on the tomb of Day.
