THE OLDEN TIME.

A CHARGE delivered by ALEXANDER ADDISON,
Esq. President of the Court to the Grand Jury
of the county of Allegheny, at Pittsburgh, Sep
TENDER LIST, 1874.
The alarming and awful situation Of this
country, at this time, is too well known TO re-
quire a statement On the part of the goy-
eminent we are now offered forgiveness of
all that is past, on condition that we sincerely
submit to the excise law, and all other laws.
The question now is, whether we will accept
of the terms proposed or not
The decision Of this question is of such inn
portance, that am sure it will receive SOL
emn consideration from every citizen of So
Der mind If we accept of the terms we shall
have peace. If we reject them we shall have
Uar There is no medium between these eX-
tremes. For in the present state OF the coun-
try, it is impossible to expect from the govern
ment a repeal of the excise law. Government
is the ,phole people acting by their representa-
tiyes. The will of these representatives, must
not be extorted by force or fear; otherwise
those who thus entertain them, exercise a tyr
amy over the rest of the people. We are a
little more than seventeen part Of the Uni
ted States. We ought not therefore pretend to
dictate laws to the rhole. But whatever por
ton we may be, if our law is repealed at the
call Of armed men, government is destroyed
no law will have any force: every law will be
3isobeyed in some part of the union. Govern
ment is therefore now compelled to enforce
submission to this law or to none. The whole
force Of the United States must be eXertcd to
support its authority now, or the government
OF the United States must cease to exist. Sab
mission or arar, therefore is the alternative
War is s dreadful a calamity, that nothing
can justify its admission, but an evil agains!
which no other remedy remains. That the
colonies, to relieve themselves from the tyran-
ny of Britain, should have reused to war, no
man will wonder. They had to acquire the
first principle of liberty, an equal voice in
framing their laws. The same was the case
with France. Its constitution was overthrown,
and one man had, by inheritance, acqaired a
power which he could transmit TO his success
sor, of making laws for the whole nation. But
our constitution has already secured the most
democratic principles of representation. Oar
complaint is only against the ordinary exercise
Of legislation. We have now more than Just
proportion of representatives. To fill our just
proportion we may choose whom we please
And we ought not yet to despair, that in leg
al manner, we shall receive redress, for every
Just complaint The principles of liberty are
completely established in our constitution
Those principles are, that the viii of a major
ity should control the fen. We wish now fol
liberty destructive Of those principles which
we formerly sought, and the French now fight
to establish. Our complaint is that the many
have not get repealed law at the request o.
the fe,r, and therefore we rashly propose
TGr
If we determine rnr, look forward to the
consequences. Either we shall defeat the U

We have been friends together
In sunshine and in shade;
Since first beneath the chestnut tree
In infancy we played;
But coldness dwells within my heart,
cloud is on thy brow;
We have been friends together
Shall light word part US nowE
We have been friends together,
We have laughed at little jests:
For the fount of hope was gushing
Warm and joyous in our breasts.
But laughter now hath fled thy brow,
And sullen gooms thy lip,
We have been gay together
Shall light word part US now?
We have been sad together,
We have wept with bitter tears,
Der the grass-grown graves where slumbered
The hopes of early years,
The voices which are silent there,
Would bid thee clear thy brow
We have been sad together
Oh! what shall part US now!

New WAY TO PAY OLD DEBTs-tt is ami
sing to observe the many ways some people
have to avoid paying their honest debts. Ever,
one of these long visagcd fellows has his pecu-
liar way of evasion, from the poor tmorous
debtor who meets his creditor with tremuious
500 wait a little longer" to the genuine bravo
do who owes hundred small sums, but fears
neither duns nor the threats of incarceration,
because he is shielded by the law, and can ans
swer with perfect independence, s:You can'
get It," The following is provoking specimen.
A had demand against u. and for months
could exact nothing from hun but first rate pro-
promises. At length, as a last resort, he told
him that he mighi pay him one dollar per month
till it was paid. replied, 80 yes, can do
that" and at the same time expressed his grl-
titude to A for his leniiy. The first month OK
pired, and waited upon his delinquent, with
the expectation of obtaining the first pay ment !;
but he found that he should have to keep aca1-
ing, for merely replied in his usual scn'en>
tious manner, "I8haU pay you teo meet time
AT the end OF another moata b made hi, ap-
pearance, and A, having high hopes of being
paid, received him very cordially; but his cha
grin may be imagined--ior, instead O! paying
''two,'' u simply whispered in his ear, "Mf. A.
its three nor"
1t would be far better, If those who are in
the habit Of provoking their creditors by pros
missing what they know they cannot perform
would adopt the method Of an honest quaker
who was notorious for his remssness: On be-
ing presented with bill, he replied Thee
call next fourth day, and if cant pay hec
then, I'll tell thee when to come again" Nor

POETRY.
A MONARCH's DEATa 1ED
BIZ Mrs. Hemans.

The Emperor Albert, of Hapsburgh, who was a
sassinated by his nephew afterwards called John II
Parricde was left to die by the way side, and onl
supported in his last moments by a female peasan
who happened to be passing.
A monarch on his death bed lay
Did censers wait perfume,
And soft lamps pour their slvery ray
Through his proud chambers gloom?
He lay upon greensward bed,
Beneath darkening sky
A lone tree waving DER his head,
swift stream rolling by.
Had he then fal'n as warriors fall,
Where spear strik es fire with spear?
Was there a banner for his pail,
buckler for his bier!
Not so; nor cloven shields norhelms
Had strewn the bloody sod,
Where he, the helpless lord of realms
Yielded his soul to God.
Were there not friends with words Of cheer,
And princely vassals nigh!
And priests, the crucifx to rear
Before the glazing eye9
A peasant girl that royal head
Upon her bosom laid,
And, shrinking not for woman's dread,
The face of death surveyed.
Alone she sat: from hill and wood
Red sank the mournful sun;
Fast gush'd the fouut of noble blood
Treason its worst had done!
With her long hair she vainly press'd
The wounds to staunch their tide
Unknown on that meek humble breast,
Imperial Albert died!

has done. 1t has already made sacrifices which
entitle it to grateful returns. 1t offers to for
give past offences, and consider US as having
never erred. 1t cannot, without a total extinc-
ton of all authority, repeal this law, while we
ldisobey it: Government must either subdue us
or cast US off. For, however we may fatter
ourselves with the destructive hope Of defeat
ing government, we have no prospect of sub
DUNG it; and compelling the United States to
retain us in the union. Suppose us then sep
arate people, what prospect have we OF being
able to secure those objects, which arc essen
tial to the prosperity of this country, and of far
more consequence than the repeal of the excise
law.
Do you, gentlemen, who by your station,
can do it so etfectuallv, unite with me in ey-
pressing, propagatng, and supporting these
sentiments, and through you, both now and
hereafter, let them be felt to be the voice of
your country.
They are mine--and were an angel from
Heaven to charge me to make to you, as
should answer it at the tribunal OF God, faith
tul declaration of my opinion of the interests
of this country, at this important period,
would were it the last moment Of my lille,
address you as now have done. And %!
may the God of wisdom and peace inspire this
people with discernment and virtue, remove
from their minds blindness and passion, and
save this country from becoming field of
blood.
