advantages of this publication will be ap-

By Mrs. Hemans.

by MIS- heinah''
81 hear thee speak of the better land,
Thou call'st its children happy band
Mother! oh where is that radiant shore!
Shall we not seek it, and weep no more!
Is it where the flower of the orange blows,
Is it where the fre-1ics glance through the
myrtle boughsE
-ssNot there, not there, my child!
as it where the featlcry palm trees rise,
And the date grows ripe under sunny skies
Or midst the green islands OF gllt'ering seas:
Where fragrant forests perfume the breeze
And strange bright birds, on their starry
wings, -,
Bear the rich hues OF all glorious thihSs!
-"Not there, not thele, my child!
SIS it far away, in some reglon old, -,
Where the rivers wander otr sands OF gold
Where the burning rays of Nhe ruby shine,
And the diamond lights up the secret mine,
And the pearl CLEANS forth from the coral
strand, = ,,,
Is it there. sweet psother, that better land?"
-"Not there, rot there, my chlld!'
"Eye hath not seen it, my gentle boy!
Ear hath not heard its deep songs of Joy;
Dreams cannot picture world so fair
Sorrow and death may not enter there;
Time doth not breathe on its fadeless bloom,
Far beyond the clouds, and beyond the tomb,
1t is there, it is there, my child!'

blessed influences around us, and that our bel
loved country will again become united, peace
full, and happy.
In assuming this station, some years ago,
took the liberty of then expressing to the Housd
sentiment which l had long cherished , and
what now seize this fit occasion of repeating
from this Chair. 1t is this: that our confede1
rated republic can only safely exist, under thd
influence of wise, equal, and just laws, by thd
ties OF common interests and brotherly affect
ton; spirit of mutual forbearance and mdde|
ration collectively and individuality and By
cherishlng a devotion to that Liberty and
Union, secured TO us by the blood of our CONF
mon fathers. These are the stable foundations
upon which our liberties and free institutions
can alone rest; and God grant they may BID
eternal This, gentlemen, in all human proba
bility, is the moment of separation, with many
very many of us, forever. Is there one in
dividual present to whose bosom final separa-
ton from those with whom he has been so long
and intimately associated, will not cast pain
tul and bitter pang? If there be, l confess
envy not his feelings.
You will carry with you, gentlemen. my
cordial and best wishes for your individual
prosperity & happiness, s. beg you to receive
this my most affectionate, and possibly, last
farewell

Now, we hold that Mr.. Clay, upon princi-
pies of law as well as equity, was entirely abb
solved from any obligation to maintain their
interests any longer, and was at perfect liber-
ty to make the best bargain he could with any
other spectator. What merchant is there a.
mong Mr. Burgess constituents, who, if he
make bad speculation in the north, will not
try his luck in the south2
These men are very unreasonable with Mr..
Clay. They forget his side of the bargain.
and what was his only object in giving them
support. IL they cannot help him to gain it
by riding the tariff up, he has perfect right to
do so by riding 1t down.
We hope, however, the result will teach
them one thing--and that is, nerer again to
htrow the essential interests of the country, into
the pibrating scale Of party conflict, or make
them secondary to rieps Of mere personal and
political ambition.

those relations of peace, affection, and good
fellowship which are so Indispensable TO the
prosperity and happiness of each and all. That
these great objects shall not fail for the want of
such an arrangement, is so emphatically de.
manded by public sentiment as to alay all
apprehensions: should the present Congress,
unfortunately, be unable to effect it, we may
count with confidence upon the speedy ard
successful efforts of the next. Until this desi-
rable result shall be attained, we have a safe
guaranty against violence and discords in the
discreet exercise ofexecutive authority, the per
vading patriotism of our countrymen, and that
sacred inextinguishabe love of Union which is
so predomfnantly the master-feeling in an
American bosom.

as ought, the honor Of being per>

saws
81 have never scarcely witnessed stronger
dissatisfaction in any body of men, than there
exists at this moment among the eastern
friends and some of the westerly of the pros
tective policy Their language in private is
precisely that used by Mr.. Burgess in his
speech to-day They consider their interests
as bargained away, aud sold to the south; and
they express the deepest modification that they
should have them sacrificed by their own
friends. They do not hesitate TO tell US, that
they consider the passage of The tariff bill as
the knel Of the American system; and they
are SO inveterate in their denuncialions of
those who have inflicted the blow, that 1t is
impossible to expect any other result than a
wide and irreconcieable division between
those who have heretofore acted together, in
storm as well as in sunshine; in endeavoring
to build up that very system to which, it is
now said, the axe has been applied with de-
structive energy
Mr. Burgess did indeed say, that tive have
