LATE OMISSIONS.

psss5isc Oi,sisio5s. The Opposition have indulged in the most sanguine hopes, from the effects of the Presidents Mays vile Message. The very men who have professed to entertain an inviolate attachme to Siate Rights, and display ed ConstitauionaI upon their Banner, are yauntlng of the benefits which Ilen- " Clay, the ultfa advocate of fed- eral encroacbments, may derive from this attempt of General Jackson, to linn it the broad sweep of the federal pow CT. They are trying to reconcile the most violent extremes in their own per sons. In the same breath, they express their respect for the principles of the Old School. and their loyalty to Henry Clay. In the same moment they cant about their desire 10 arrest encroach- ments, and yet rejoice at the injury which Sen. Jackson is doing to himself by his attempt to arrest them. They vaant of Ciay's gaining ground in Ken lucky, Ohio, all the West, Maryland. Pennsylvania and the Eastern States. But B t ts tic par tiizans of Mir. Clay are de ceived. The very men who adhered to Mr. Adams, with has sweeping Mes sage staring them in the face--the men, who would now lay the Constitution at Mir. Ciay's feet, are boosting of his sue cess-and attempting to impose upon the people. The Presidents Message has not shaken his through tho nation.

JNiehsgan.-The North American Jour nal, of the lith, ult., contains speech of His Excellency Gov. Cass, delivered on that day at the opening of the Le- gislatiye Council of Michigan, conven- ed at Detroit. The rapidity with which this territory is settling is truly aston ishing, and the Governor anticipates the present year, larger accession of numbers b5 emigTatiolt, than iin any pre- ceding year. In stating the subjects whichought to be presented for the con sideration of the Legislature, and by it brought before the President, His Ex- cellency invites attention to an inland communication between St. Joseph's and Maumee rivers, which would in- crease the facilities of access to one of the most fertile parts of the Union, and avoid the necessity of a hazardous navigation, through the whole extent of tile great Lakes. On this subject Gov. Cass thus remarks:-ssIf From the mouth of the St. Joseph to the south ern extreme of Lake Erie, our whole border is washed by the great Lakes, and by the straights connecting them, bat there is but one obvious and signal improvement which could be made, and which, no doubt, eventually will be made; and that is, 10 unite the mouth of the St. Joseph swith our ureasterncoast, by canal or rail road, as experience
 may establish the superiority of either, across the base of the peninsula. The
 country presentsno formidable obstacle to the execution of these works. 1t is
 generally level and well watered; and the summit on each side, with he ex- certion of one small tract, is attained by gradual and imperceptlble eleva- Ltien.o

 She never blamed him, never!
 But received him when he came, VI itli welcome kind as ever,
 And she tried to look the same: But vainly sine dissembled,
 For whenever she tried to smile, A tear unbidden tremhled
 In her blue eye all the while. She knew that she was dying.
 And she dreaded not her doom She never thought of signing
 Ger her beauty's blighted bloom. She knew her cheek was altered, And she knew her eye was dim, But her sweet voice only faltered When she spoke of losing him. 'Tis true that he had lured her
 From the Isle where she was born sTis true he had inured her
 To the cold worlds cruel scorn. But yet she never blamed him
 For the anguish she had known, And though she seldom named him, She thought. of him alone. She sighed when he caressed her, For she knew that they must part-- She spoke not when he pressed her To his young and panting heart. The banners waved around her, And she heard the bugle's sound They passed-and strangers found her Cold and lifeless on the ground.

TEyHE primary object of this work wil

 vey moral and religious sentiments, thro' a pleasing medium, to the heart--er, in
 other words, to blend ss the useful with the sweet

HOPE.

The Wretch condemn'd with life to part, Still, stillon hope relies; And every pang that rends the heart,
 Bids expectation rise. Hope, like the glimm'ring taper's light,
 Adorns and cheers the way And still, as darker grows the night,
 Emits brighter ray. Gotdsmith.

MY MOTHERS VOICE.

My mothers voice. how often creeps lis cadence on my lonely hours, Like healing sent on wings of sleep,
 Or dew on the unconscious flowers. 2 might forget her melting prayer,
 While pleasure's pulses madly fly; Bnt in the still, unbroken air,
 Her gentle tones come stealing by, And years of sin and sorrow fee, And leave me at my mothers knee. The hook of nature, and the print
 or beauty on the whispering sea, Gives sill to me some hneament
 Of what have been taught to be. If If v ileaft is harder, anu perhaps,
 Ny manliness has drunk up tears, A ..a there's snildew in the lapse
 Of a few miserable years But nature's book is even yet, With all my mothers lessons writ. I have been out at even-tide,
 Beneath moonlight sky of spring, When earth was garnished like bride, nd night had on her silver wing. And bursting buds and diamond grass, And waters leaping to the light, And all that make the pulses pass
 With wilderfieetnes ,thronged the night When all was beauty, then have ],
 With friends on whom my love is hung, bike fr,yrria. of wing of a.sat. Z. sa at.jr "
 Gazed up where evenings lamp IS hung. And when the beauteous spirit there
 Flung over me its. golden chain, Ny mothers voice came on the air,
 Like the last dropping of the rain, And resting on some silver star,
 The spirit of pended knee, I've pour'd the deep and fervent prayer, That our eternity might be, Torise in heaven like stars at night And tread g living path of light
