DEATH.
(By Mrs. Uemaas.l

" Why should not he, whose touch dissolves our
chain,
Put on his robes Of beauty when he comes
AS dcliverer1 He hath many forms
They should not all be fearful! If his call
BE but our gathering to that distant land,
For whose sweet waters we have pined with
thirst,
Why should not its prophetic sense be borne
Into the hearts deep stiffness with breath
Of Summers winds, voice Of melody,
Solemn, yet lovey,"

LEGIsLaTURE or ONO

HOUSE OF REPREsENrATIvRs-Jan TO-
The House having again resolved itself into a
committee of the whole, Mr.. Holconb in the chair,
the resolutions of the Legislature of Tennessee
proposing a certain amendment to the Constitu-
ton OF the United States, together with The report
and resolutions offered by MIR. Higgins
Mr.. Irwin (Speaker) moved that the said report
be agreed to.
Mr.. Irwin remarked, in support of his motion,
that the Constitution ofhe United States has hither
to borne us along on the wings of prosperity. He
therefore thought it unwise aud iinpoliiic 10 make
any innovation in that instrument But in addition
TO this, the amendment proposed by the Legisla-
ture OF Tennessee was liable 10 many objections
1t made provision for the election Of Vice
President: and appeared TO have been drawn up
hastily and for the sole purpose of furthering the
election of particular person 10 the Presidency,
unconnected with any object demanded by the pub
lie interest For these reasons, he hoped the report
and resolutions offered by the gentleman from
Butler MIR. Higgins )would be adopted by the
House.
objections urged by the Speaker were conclusive
against the amendment proposed by the Legisla-
lure Of Tennessee. lie Likewise objected TO il on
another ground. 1t provided that the votes should
be counted at the City Of Washington, and no
where else; but from the march Of population
wealth, and power, TO the West, who could saw

qualifications be has the best opportunity of making
