SONG FOR MAY.
BY W. C. CLARK.
The Springs scented buds all around me are
There are songs in the stream-there is breat,
in the gale,
A sense Of delight on each bosom il dwelling,
As float the pure day dreams o'er mountain
and vale.
The desoIats reign Of old Winter is broken
The verdure is fresh upon every tree;
OF natures revival the harm;-and a token
OF love, oh thou Spirit Of Beauty to thee.
The sun looketh from the halls Of the morning,
And flashes the clouds that begirt his career;
lie welcom es the gladness and glory returningl
TO rest on the promise and hope Of the year
lie fills with rich light all the balm breathing
lie mounts to the zenith, and laughs on the
wave;
lie wakes into music the green forest bowers,
And gllds the gay plains which the broad rivers
The young bird il out on its delicate pinion-
lie tmidly sails in the infinite sky;
A greeting to May, and her fairy dominion,
lie pours, on the west winds fragrant sigh;
Around, above, there are peace and pleasure
The woodlands are singng-the heaven is
bright;
The fields are unfolding their emerald treasure,
And mans genial spirit is soaring in light.
Alas, for my weary and care-hunted bosom!
The spell Of the spring-time arouse it no more;
The song Of the wild wood-the sheen Of the
blossom
The fresh swelling fountain-ther magic is Ger
When list to the streams when | look on the
flowers,
They tell Of the Past, with so mournfll tone,
Then | call up the throngs Of my long-vanished
hours,
And sigh that their transports are over and gone.
From the wide spreading earth; from the limitless
heaven,
There have vanished an eloquent glory and
CLEAN:
To nay veil d mind no more is the influence given,
Which colore,h life with the hues of dream;
To the bloom-purpled landscape its loveliness
keepeth-
deem that light as Of old gds the wave;-
But the eye Of my spirit in heavness sleepeth,
Or sees but my youth, and the visions it gave:

that they will make every effort to re-
tain their power.
Mr.. Teas said, the people Of Des
Moincs were as virtuous as they were
strong, they only wanted what was
right, and they would be as unwilling
to do a wrong as to submit to one.
Mr.. Sweet said he would reply to
the gentleman from Brown, that the
people Of Des Moines had not the heft
to carry all their measures, and that
there could be no probability of the
seat Of government being retained at
Burlington.
Mr.. Knapp said he wished ptlemen
to come out and express their views on
this subject, and not sit and quietly
give their votes as if this was mat
ter ofno importance. He could not see
why the gentleman from Brown Mr..
Arndt) was willing 10 travel 500 miles
to the seat Of government. He should
like to hear his reasons for supporting
Burlington.
Mr.. Vineyard moved that the COM

Mr.. Baird opposed the motion, and
said he thought the question could as
well be decided theu, as at any other
time.
The motion to rise was carried.

;y-Thc object Of my first mum.
Der was 10 draw the attention Of your
self and the public q the vital subject
OF the surplus revenue. Il will Be my
objection in This to elicit the same at
tention to the enkrossing question Of
the propriety Of having bank in this
State. Suggestions will not Imagine,
be unacceptable to those whose duty
it will be to act upon this subject.
am aware, Mr.. Editor, that your pa
per has advocated the policy Of having
a bank, and contcnded that ST. Lnuis
caunot prosper without one.-If a
bank can be so instituted as to leave
safe that part Of the community. who
can share none Of the profits ari sing
from banking, then the objections to
the policy might cease to be urged.
The people Of the country would be
proud to see the city Of St. Louis -four
ish; and they are disposed to foster
every measure calculated to promote
its interests, provided only that the
measures adopted be Of no special de-
trimcnt to them.
You contend thu Dt. Louis REQUIRES
a bank to keep the city from falling
into decline then let SAINT LOUIS
stand God -fathcrfor its solvency. Those
who are to receive the benefits should
bear tho expenses, if any misfortune
should happsa to befai the institution.

STEAM BOAT TRAVELLING.
POLITICS. Sc.

Nothing strikes traveller on the
western steam boats, who may be
friendly to democracy, more forcibiy
than the general aristocratic sentiments
Of the company IN which he will be
placed. We had ample opportunity
to witness this fact, in a trip to,thc
west. On reflection. as to the cause Of
this, we soon satisfied ourselves that,
from existing circumstances, it could
not he otherwise. The description Of
majority Of travellers on steam boats;
would show that they were specula.
tors Of some kind or other. Many Of
them 80 west for the purpose. Of land
speculations especially, and others
are extensive commercial spectators:
whilst another class live and travel in
high style on the profits Of money in
vested in stock ofbanks, insurance Of
fees, &c. OF course, from such a.
these little 0ee than aristocratic prin-
ciples could be cxpee1cd. They are we
have found by observation, the most
bitter opponents Of the general admin
istration and democratic measures. and
may be said to serve for the opposition
as a travelling corps Of revilers, a
falsifiers Of the pure doctrines Of our
government.-Much Of the noise and
hustle Of their party may fairly be at.
tributed to them; as each Of them IN
this line els a host within himselfD !.
Of course we do not include among
these travellers, another class, known
as plain, unassuming men, principally
agriculturalists, who 60 to the west
These men, without exception, are
truly republican; and even compara-
lively the l;7iittee5a na;a5er q g. them thai
travel on boats, are great o6set against
the malign influence Of the first men-
toned class.

and intimated pretty plainly that the
act Of Assembly, in particular under
which the defendant Downing, and
his principal, Conant, were indicted,
appeared to have been comtyived and
passed by the last Legislature as an
insidious trap for the. unwary if in
deed it were not utterly void for its
absurdity. The prosecuting attorney
retorted, cit i'll became him to stultify
his own laws, or to impute fraud aud
oppression to an act Of Legislation in
which he (Mr g. bore SO distinguish

evils existed in this country, than law
