submitted their conduct the decision of those whom

suit" IL every District except two the Adnin,tra-
on candidates have succeeded; aud it Is stated that tie
election of Gen FindIay, the jackson candidate was
not the result ofhs political sentiments but was effect.
ed by the votes of adams and jackson men combined
who supported him from motives ofpersonat Friendship.
Thus has Ohio disappointed the enemies of the Ad
miuistraton, in lending her i'd, sing TO the hghes,
Office in the gift Of the people, individual every way
unqualified for the station; and prompting the ambi
ous views of set of unprnciped adyeuturers.

peared through clouds of incense burning a.

came more and more distinct. All behind was
darkness and mystery. The most costly robes
decorated his body; gorgeous tiara glitter
ed on his brow; while enormous plumes were
seen waving on all sides Of the throne. AS
he approached the light, with elevated front,
and uplified hands, he called aloud on the Al
mighty. Instantly the bare-headed multitude
fell prostrate. Thousands and tens Of thou
sands knclt before him. This military, with
crash, grounded their arms and every SOL
der was seen with his face to the earth. A
voice, which penetrated every corner of the
area, then pronounced the benediction. Ex-
tending his arms, and waving over the peo-
pie, he implored blessing upon all the ma
tons of the earth. Immediately the cannons
roared-trumpets screamed-music played

THE DUELLIsTS GOD.

By w. 3. Japan.
Moioch had fallen and Satan wept
To sec his shrines alone;
His rites in dark oblivion slept,
And worshipless his throne;
Around him throng'd the peers of hell,
Intent on curs'd debate,
Yet nought could Satan's ire dispel,
Or soothe the monarch's hate;
Till Belial, a tall ticnd arose,
And urg'd his fell design;
"And triumph Chicf!' he said, i" thy foes
Shall own mightier shrine;
What though the vale of HinnOm boasts
No more its thousands dead;
And Tophet sees no more it's hosts
Through fire and slaughter led
On Moloch's ruin, 10 appears
A newdescended god,
Whose robe is gemm'd will, orphans tears,
Whose sceptre reeks with blood;
Affairs shall rise in every cline
70 this divinity;
And still as he hastes on, old Time
Shall untold votaries see"
lie spake-with shonts the conclaye rang,
Hell trembld with acclaim,
"A god, god descends!" they sang,
Let Honour bc his name!''
Columbia willing owns his sway,
- and for her proud and brave,
He digs. impatient fdelay,

AUTUMN.

With what glory comes and goes the year
The buds of spring-ihose beautiful harbin-
gers
Of sunny skies and cloutlless ti,nes-enjoy
L'fe's newncss, and earth's garniture, spgead
out, 'eE1 ~
Aud when the silver habit of the clouds
Comes down upon the autumn sun, and with
sober sladness the old year takes up
Ills bright inheritance of golden fruits,
pomp and pageant fill the splendid scene.
There is beautiful spirit breathing now
It's mellow richness on the clustered trees,
And from beaker full of richest dive
Pouring new glory OH the autumn woods,
And dipping in warm light the pillared clouds.
Morn OF the mountain, like summer bird,
J,lits up her purple wing, and in the wales
The gentle wind sweet and passionate wOocr
Kisses the blushlng leaf, and stirs up life
Within the solemn woods Of ash deep GRIM
soned,~
And silver beech, and maple yellow leafed-
Where autumn, like faint old man sits down
BY the way side weary. Through the trees
The golden robin moves the purple finch,
That ON wild cherry and red cedar feeds,
A winter bird-comes with its plaintive whistle,
And pecks by the witch hazel, whilst aloud
. From cottage roofs the warbling blue-bird
sings;
And merriIy with oft repeated stroke
Sounds from the threshing- floor the busy fail.
O what glory doth this world put on
For HIM that with tervent heart goes forth
Under the bright and glorious sky, and looks
On duties weilperformed and days well spent
For him the wind, aye. and the yellow leaves,
Shall have voice, and give him eloquent
teachings,
He shall so hear the solemn hymn, that Death
Has lifted up for all, that he shall go
TO his long resting place without tear.
