speech, as far as have seen or heard, has been
only published in the Richmond papers and in

Mr.. Mason having expressed readiness to
answer an, queries which may be put to him re.
speeding his political opinions, A Voter takes
this occasion to PROFOUND the following:
Were you not opposed to the extension Of the
right Of suffrage prior TO the late convention IN
Virginia; and did You not both speak and exert
yourself on that account TO prevent any change
of the Constitution Of Virginia?
Are you not Of the party called the State
Rights Party, and have not your doctrines given
rise both to Modification and Secession?
Are you not opposed to re-chartering the Bank
of the United States, and. if elected TO Congress-
will you not vote against re.charterlug the Banks
Do you not deny the consttutonality OF the
power hitherto exercised BY Congress to make
Internal Improvements?

To the Editor ofths .4israndria Gazeite.

Permit me, sir, TO state, through the medium
of your extensively circulating paper, that liv.
ing Iguana was recently received at the Alexan-
dria Museum. He is Of the Lizard class, and is
nearly three feet in length These animals are
natives Of hot climates, and are sought after with
avidity for the use Of the tables of epicures.--
They are said to be perfectly harmless. never 81
wing cause of offence TO any thing. They are
remarkable for existing great length Of time
without partaking OF any sustenance whate'er--
as was the case with this animal; for his mouth,
by way of experiment, had been sewed up fur
three months, previous to his coming into the
possession of the gentleman from whom Ireceiv-
ed him, and ~ho very hnmanely relieved HIM
from situation so painful and unnatural: not
outstanding, he is still abstemious, aud appears
to be lively and in good health.
This is rare donation, being, 1t IS believed,
the first living Iguana brought into the District
of Columbia.
Presented by William II. Fowle, Esq. who
caused the annual to be conveyed a distance Of
more than two thousand miles. for this Museum.

Post Office We learn that the packet ship
4 which arrived yesterday afternoon, brought up
wards OF TEN THOUSAND LETTERS. Those Tor
this city were all delivered early this morning;
but owing TO singular arrangement with the
Mail Contractor from the South, we learn that
all the letters intended tor the South, cannot be
sent on THIS DAY. The reason of this is, that
in conformity with his contract, the Contractor
will not wait after certain period--we believe
halt past two O'Clock. Well may our friends
in Philadelphia, Baltimore, &c, complain of the
Mail Arrangements. 1t would certainly be very
proper for discretion to be vested IN the Post
Master of this city to detain the mail in certain
cases. and on his &c ,i6oate, an ad ,itonal com
p,n,alion shO Id be paid u tn CONT actor, who
would, by extraordinary exertions, be enabled to
make up the time lost in New York. We pre-.
sumo that upwa ards Of FIVE thousand letters will
be left behind this day.-N. j. Com. 10th Aprh
Save Case "A representation was made on
Saturday last by some colored persons to gen
tleman OF the bar in this city, that there was
slave on board the schooner Pernal johnson, Cap
tain Morgan. from Delaware Bay, who was de.
sirous OF obtaining his freedom, but who was so
closely watched that he had no opportunity to
bring his case before judicial tribunal. Imme.
diate inquiry was instituted, which resulted in
the discovery that the slave vas not a runaway,
but had left home with the consent Of his master.
Under these circumstances, and with view to
arrive at the facts of the case. an application was
made To Chief Justice Shaw for a writ Of ha5eas
corpus. which was granted, and an officer deput,
ed 20 execute it. The slave was found and car.
vied TO the Court room. but. in the meantime, the
Court had adjourned Judge Shaw, on being in.
formed Of the circumstance, had the Court re.
opened and proceeded to interrogate the slave 10
regard to his condition and wishes. His answers
were that he was. desirous Of being free man,
but he could not think Of living away from his
mother and slsrer, and that he would rather re-
turn home and enjoy life with them with all its
servitude. The Judge told him he could do as
he pleased, aud directed him to be set at liberty.
He accordingly made his way back to the schoon.

Come to thy brethren OF the Past;
Thy task is done-Appear"
And from the soundIess gloom beneath

Like one whose lips but lately Death
Hath kissed, and sul the blood is warm!
Before the throne il stayed: "To Time"
The ruler spake-" dead Year. declare

Then join the volceless there!'
Slow answer gave the hidden corse,
With tunelrss accents cold,
As wanderers in their sleep discourse,
Unconscious. passionless, unsculed:--

Around my bier were wrath and blood -

Amidst the rush of coming years;

With streams Of bitter tears.

By Satrap slaves, the iron driven
Through godiike hearts:--the Scythian's

Ran through the land;-his trampling hoofs
With virgins gore were dabbed red;
Der wasted fields and blazing roofs,
Night howled as Freedom bled!
Afar, her Island throne beneath,
She raised her tettered hands;
Ipassed-and with nv sudden breath
The chain was burst like flaxen bands
Fire scorched--the growth Of rooted " Mugs
Fell, wilhered by TN, bright oareer;-
The triumph Of ten mi!ien tongues
Pealed in my dying ear!
"Iquenched. within a sickly frame,
Paired with sluggish mind.

Who shook the world h. could not bind. :
And Grant mOnarchs made me SPORT
Some grasping at a bandits sway,
Same wandering with an outlawed court,
Some banlshed, some at bay.
FROM minds high temples on INV breast,
The stately and the strong
Have laid their radiant heads to rest:-
The nrds Of heaven descended song,
That frightened nations at nv birth,
And hailed me with loving vow,
folded in the grave; and earth

"Of all the change "f wo and veal

Amen! of course, every sensible man will,
if the people, from whose decision there is no ap-

strange things may happen between now and the

nor against the Tariff: before the election he may
make up his mind and come out as the champion
of THE NORTH, and of the American system -
That he has not already done 80, is perhaps to be
ascrlbed to his difidrnce IN his own opinions, and
an unconquerabe prediction he i. afflicted with,
for waiting to see how the majority are about to

From Iai,'s Edinburgh Magaziae.
A VISION OF THE OLD YEAR.
It was the first dun hour that creeps
From midnight towards the dawn,
When closest o'er the eye that sleeps,
The dream embroidered veil is drawn;
slumbered with the choral swell
OF distant carols in my ear,
While. pealing SLOW. the mInster-bell
Awoke new. born year.
And visions seized my winged sense,
Even at the porch Ut sleep,
Like mighty winds, and bore me thence
Away-away-wit GREATNESS sweep!
Earth's voice was lost amidst the whirl
OF stars that cleaned atbwart the blue;
And comets, from their trains OF pearl,
Shook meteors as we flew.
The spheres were passed, and Space grew
bare,
StarIess, and vague, and pallet
Dark columns, through the desert air.
Like pillows in an Arctic gale,
Wayered, and bent their meeting shade
In c,rcIiug piles Of vauIted gloom.
Girdins the dun expanse,-and made
A dim, stupendous dome.
Around its sweep, in upward rings,
Each in his place Of state,
A sea of shades, like phantom-kings,
In myriads, grey and moveless sate:-
Some frowning stern-with radiance starred
'rhe robes Of others cleaned: Of some
The brows were darkeued, writhen, or scar.

Some yelled, and all were dumb.
