who declared That "If Hope were
struck from existence, menkind would
be supIemely benefited" Ga the
contrary, am firmly Of the opinion,
that were hope destroyed, man would
be "supremely" miserable. Hope is
the star which cheers US on through the
troubled voyage oflife. Hope is nthe
anchor Of The soul, sure and steadfasi."
Cease every JOY to glimmer on my

await him there, and feels that psafe

Il There n no season tn us more pleasing.
and yet more melancholy, than AuruMy.-If
there Is ever "a pleasure in the pathless
wood" it is when tho leaves, once green and
verdant, are changed To the varying hurs that
deck The autumn fresis: when each gentle
zephyr bears on ITS bosom some ricmcntu OF
the dying year, or some floating germ OF veg
'taIion Ia tell, that, though all things die and
decay, yet there is in all things the principle
at revivl6csiion--snd that when ihr cold
and dreary winter has passed. all things will
again spring mp fresh and gay, and nature
VIII be-, us tho she had not her veidant cover
ing, or been stript Of all that charms the eye,
or delights the sense. Autumn, too, is the
time Of plenty, when the Farmer torgets his
t"lls, as he looks upon his granaries filed
with the yellow ear, or to his harms where is
stored the heavy laden sheaf. und the rich
produce of the waving frld-and to his cellar
for his sparkling cider aud the rich favored
apple. Who would not be happy when he
contemplatcs the fruit Of all his toll, aud re-
fleets, that. though he has gained it all by the
"sweat of his brow" yet with his labor he has
preserved his health and spirits an fitted his
mind and his body TO enjoy the good things u
kind Providence has bestowed u pom him?
And who in the autumn of life would not
be happy, could he look back upon life of
industry and virtue and wisdom, which in the
spring OF life he had sowcd, in the summer
nourished and protected, and in autumn
gathered up for his support and happiness,
through the dreary winter Of old age ITo-

Tongue scrutinzed, and the usual routine of
such visit gone through, without producing
any r"nlci'on on the mind of the sIrrant thu,

very hne "show off," to wear such splendid
appendages for exhibition only. Mr.
looked astounded at this assertion and forth
with commenced an examination of his own
proper person, when he found himself attired
I'D the Clothes Of some other crson, and Dos
sessed oi very elegant and valuable gold
watch. This was not all. In the pockets of
one OF the garments he found bank bills
amounting to upwards of four thousand dol
lars, n sum most undoubtedly acce eptable to
MN, but how to account for it, getting there!
The truth soon flashed across his mind
lie became raving and an reimbursement
forthwith took place. which resulted in the
lady's being ordered to quit the premises Of
her heee lord, whom she had vilely dishon-
ored. In moment Of terror she gave the
name OF her culprit seducer-a wealthy mer-
chant and an extensive importer-and the af-
far now promises to be the subject of law
suit for Grim. con. The misguided lady is at
present residing with her parents, deeply
penltent for her indiscretion, aud very ser-
ously indisposed.

A CoMrLIMENr.-John Quincy Adams in
a letter to s. s. South~ orth, published in the
Bangor Wing, says of the anti administration
party, in Rhode Island, "that it is a party
having no honest common principle to hold
them together. That party not being the
Wing party, hut the compound Of Hartford
Convention Federalism and Royal Arch Ma
sonry. That the dissolution of the Wing
party itself will follow from their connection
with it appears to me probable. They have
lost Rhode Island-I trust forever. The
people of that State, will hope hereafter be
kept together by the cement Of a colnmon
honest principle"
