had Just before spent day in the COM
pany of Mr. Madison, at his seat in Or

glad to learn, that the venerable Ex-
President is in fine health, and in full
possession of all his faculties of mind and
body, with unabatcd chcerlulncss ofspir-
its, having before him the prospect of a
good old age. His years at present num-
bcr more than eighty; but his mother, Iiv-
cd if we mistake not, to nearly a hundred
years, and we have reason to hope that
her son will for many years continue TO
exhibit to the present generation, an H.
lustrious living example of the pure and
vrtuous character of the statesman to
whom we arc indebted for orr present
admirable frame of Government il is,
indeed, giorions moral spectacle, to sec

On hearing that the Town Of Beaufort, South

claim day of fasting and humiliation, TO avert
the evils impending over the Nation in con-
sequence Of the Tariff Law
The people of Beaufort, being piously given,
Beseged with their prayers the portals of heaven,
But fearing mere prayers, without strong suppl

Would not aid the great cause of notification;
They pray that the Governor for deeds done

Would order throughout Carolina n fast,
And call on the Planters, if Mey'd hare their

ih+ N'ALtFiERs-AND THE LADY,
- =, It "ajticr Of surprise and amusement
.. IN 'se who are versed in the history of
the above named party, for the last two
or three years, and are acquainted with
their systematic efforts to hurry on the
people to "A step, which must end in Dis
uaion and their destruction, to witness
their present profound prostraton at the
altar of the Union, and hear their solemn
vows of undying loyalty and love. Their
conduct and their fate remind me of a
tradition, connected with spot, named
Purgatory, in the neighborhood of New
port, Rhode Island, which is, no doubt,
familiar to many among them; as it is Il
iavorite evening resort o.the Carolnians,
who spend their summers in that town.
This Purgatory is chssm in a solid
rock, on the sea shore, about 60 feet in
depth, and from rs to 90 in width. The
legend tells us, that on n certain even
ing, a young gentleman and his ady-iove,
were strolling along, enjoying the breeze,
and luxuriatng in much honicd discourse,
when they were suddenly brought to
stand by this fearful precipicc. He, Of
course, proposed going round, but she,
out of caprice, or to try her power, beg
ged him, "if he loved her, to jump ov-
er." Though deeply chagrined at the
recklessncss of his life, which her cart
less request displayed, he smothcred his
feelings, and with chivalrous devotion,
and at the imminent risk of his life, obey
ed her, and by desperate leap, gained
the other side. Having thus established
beyond all question, the truth of his af-
fection, he cared no longer to stihe his
emotions. Turning round with face
sadCcncd by sappointment, ,hc rcproach-
ed her with the want of affection, s. the
cruel Indifference to his safety, which
her injunction implied. 81 gave you,
(hc said ! gave you my whole heart
! have conlided in you as would my
guardian Angel feel have been de-
ceivcd-you cannot love me; VIC must
meet no more" She saw she had deep
ly wounded him by her tr(ling; she tho't
of the fortune and splendid establishment
she would lose, if she Iosi him, aud with
the quick resolve of a woman, detcrmin-
ed to attempt, by n speclous shoe Of af-
.fcciion, and deep proiesiaiioas of the
wa,mesi attachment, to woo him back to
her. For this purpose, assuming as swect
and fond look rs she could well com
mand and at the same time affecting the
greatest astonishment and surprise, that
he could so have misapprchended her,
she called upon Heaven and earth to
witness, that she loved him as she loved
her lite. But all her art was now in vain;
she had been unmasked, and he could
be no longer dupcd. He saw through
her wilcs, appreciated her motives, des-
pissed them, and was inexorable. To all
her vows of love, he returned the simple,
but conclusive answer, that he must be
permitted to interpret her "tsetngs by her
acts, and not by her professions, and that
i she realty lorcd him, she nersr would
hare wrShed him 10 peril his life for her
qualification" He left her as the Pco-
pie have already left the .NuiiiGers, to en-
JOY the agonies of disappointed ambition,
and feel the pains and penalties of
PURGATORN.

consider our cause to be gaining ground
The Legislature, we are confident, is
safe, which is better criterion of the
strength of the party than the election of
members of Congress. The Jackson
members of congress have been elected
by very small majorities, while the Ma

elected by very large majorities, suilic-
lent to show that the State when the tri-
al for Electors takes place will be deci-

Excursion. The steamer Franklin,
Capt. T.. S. Bunker, left Providence
with 900 passengers, on Sunday last for
New Bedford, touching at this place
and taking in upwards of hundred
more. She arrived at New Bedford at
half past o'clock, in the evening. On
Monday morning, at 8 o'clock, she
proceeded from New Bedford and
Fairhaven with an additional number
of about three hundred, on an excur-
sion to Warcham. The weather was
delightfully."- pleasant, and happier
group Of merry faces we never saw col
lected in so small compass on any
previous occasion. The excellent old
gentleman commanding that splendid
steamer, spared no pans to render the
excursion agreeable to all. Mr.. Colman,
the Clerk, was also very attentive and
evinced a gentlcmanIy disposition to
please the company, which entitled him
to their undivided good wishes. The
boat returned to New Bedford at 9 o.
clock, and at embari;ed Tor tins place,
where she arrived at 90 minutes before
8 o'clock. She anived al .ov.u,
about 10. We regretted that some Of
our Providence corps editorial were
not present to give more general and
minute account of the excursion.-
There were many little incidents that
took place, that our friend Hallett would
have dressed up to the no small amuse-
ment and edifcation of his rcadcrs-the
delivery of an anti-masonic Grafton, in
a particular manner, by very worthy
member Of that society, now residing at
New Bedford. We think brother II.
would do well to obtain a copy Of it for
the press.
