Considerable excitement took place Yesterday
at the meeting of the Chesapeake and Ohio Ca
nal Company, in consequence of some remarks
of the Secretary Of the Treasury, on the Presi-
dent of the Company. This is not surprising.
when. it is considered that Mr.. MERCER is
one of the most distinguished and efficient friends
of Internal Improvement; that the administration
has taken ground against it; and that among the
Jannissaries of King Andrew the first. Mr.. ING-
HAMis prominent for the servility of his conduct.
and the m~alignity of his feelings. The reply of
Mr.. MERCER was distinguished for elOquence,
fair as well as strong argument and Iecorum-
qualities by which that gentleman is as strongly
characterized as his a%ssailant is by their oppo.
sites. On every account we rejoice to learn
that it is ascertained that the present President
and directors of the Canal Company will be re-
elected, in spite of the anxiety of the Creates
and Best" to VETO them out of office.

I returned home one night and found l the bailiffs al my threshold. Our man.
 sion in town was sold, and We rented q pleasant cottage in Hampstead. Here, If l would not have been more remorse- less than the grave, Ishould have paused upon my dark career. But l was too
 much depraved. l became more and
 more estranged from the angel of my
 youth; ] repulsed her oyerliowing af

 the Influence of my cruelty. She had
 renounced fashionable life for my sake,
 and If had been our intention to return to America, whither her parents had aifesdjj iifesdjj gone, expecting us soon to ioi- f l.
 low.
 Let me be brief As opened. one
 moonlight evening, the little gate that led up to our Hampstead residierier, saw Emile leaning upon the shoulder of young man, apparently weeping. A iiellish suspicion that she had dishon- ored me, rushed upon my brain; and stealthily approaching drew stiletto from my bosom and stabbed her to the heart. Sue turned and fixed upon n,e a look of alternate surprise, reproach, forgiyeness--shrieked, and fell lifeless at my feet. itwas her BROTHER.

My health is wasted-my hopes are dead; and the earth seems yawning to clasp me to it's icy bosom. Would that were deadi Would to God. that l could find that annihilation in which once beliey- ed, but fer which ] haze llehg ceased to hopel Twice have swallowed poison; the potion has lain harmless within ne: and God stiii bids me i've and suffer. 1 siy wife Is buried in a quiet churcil-yafi at Hampstead; and my weakness has at last prevented me from induiging the mournful office of weeping at midnight over her peaceful grave. Mychild still lives; and is the fair and sunny image of her sainted mother. lfshe ever vis-

En-Pyesideat Monroe.-We copy the, following article, ill the sentiments of which we heartily concur, from the Newport (R.l.) Republican of the 18th April.
 The New-York Courier and Enqui- Ter, in aIluding to the probability that Congress will adjourn on the I7th day of May, expresses its fears that the bill for the relief of tx-President Monroe may not be reached, and adds hope that it will be called up out of course, and favorably disposed of In this hope we join most cordially, ,and for the honor of the country, as well as for the relief Ioi so worthy citizen, we trust OUT wishes will be realized. Mir. Monroe has rendered important services in the field and in the cabinet. From his youth he has ever been the advocate and ac- tive promoter of civil freedom. Upon his character as man, a soldier, ard magistrate, there is no stain. In every act of his public life he seems to have been aetuatea by the pslHest feelings of patriotism. From such a man, in his declining years, the government ought 1 not to withhold that relief which is due to him as an act of justice; and which, even as an act of iiberaiify, would be acceptable and honorable to the nation. An appropriation from we'll filled treasury, to render easy and comforta- ble the last days of this venerable ard distinguished patriot, would be warmly approved by every generous citizen of i this this prosperous Republic.
