10 -
The snow dop is in bloom,
And the young earth's perfume,
Scents anew the floating air |;
1t is the breath OF love,
Beneath, around, above,
Young love is there.
Come let us strive to snare him--sees
Love smiling waits, for you and me.
Come let us strive to snare him-see,
Love smiling waits, for you and me.
Bind him with the jes'mine flower,
Hide him in merile bower,
On thornless roses let him rest;
See his gracious eyelids move,
Hope and Joy are eyes OF love,
Kiss them and be blest.
Love gives his own dear heart, to be
One halffor you, one half for me,
The tongue may lose its powers
As Babels noisy tower
Confourded it of yore;
But the language Of the eye,
Survives, (though others die,>
Delicious as before,
Love gives his darling eyes, to be,
One eye for you, and one for me.

ken from his report of the 18th of Feb
ruary last, under call Of the House OF
Representatives. Yet of all this, these
vs y indehendent radical partizans and
papers, SO keen in the pursuit of abuses,
have said not one word. We attribute
no improper motives TO the Secretary.
We believe he did his best; but we do,
also, believe, that i, is by far, the strong
est instance of acknowledgements, which
has occurred under this administration,
and indicates, on his part, most surpri-
sing want of foresight.-His object was
good-to enable the local banks to pay
specie, in order to preserve sound cur
rency in the West. But is it not unac-
couniable, that he did not forsee, that
the inevitable effect of the loans or de-
posts, call them what you may, would
be 10 enable the banks 10 take in their
debts, to the same amount, and place the
government precisely in the same situa-
ton OF their former creditors. 1t was,
no doubt, great advantage to them.
They got paid, at the expense Of the go
vernmeDt, and the capacity of the banks
to give sound currency was just where
II was. They went Old, as ought to have
been early oreseen-breaking, one after
the other-the Secretary still con61lng,
till government found itself with
1852 900 Of bad debts on hand, while it
was compelled to borrow money.
1t may be said that there were no
other places in which 10 deposit the
money collected in the West. A short
answer may be given. 1t was better to
leave the money in the hands Of faithful,
public officers, who had given bonds for
The faithful discharge Of their duty, than
to place il in such rotten ins,itutions.-
We stop mot that we have exhausted
the subject, bu, because we believe that
We have said enough for the present.
We hope that the friends of the Sc
cretary OF the Treasury have found, by
this time, that those who live tn glass
houses ought not to throw stones, and,
we trust, seeing that, they will profit by
the proverb. We perform painful du-
ty: but YET it is the only mode by which
a mos, unprincipled attack on the ad-
ministraton, under the name of one Of
its members, can be arrested. Ne see
or fray. We knozp our ground which
they who have placed the cause of the
Secretary in the present desperate si,ua-
ton will acknowledge, before we quit the
subject.
