THE PROSPECT BEFORE US.

As we open the mail papers, from day to day,
from all sections Of the country, we are cheered
by the patriotic sentiment every where displa yed,
from Maine TO the FIoudas, and from the Atlantic
to the farthest West. 1t may truly be said of the
Wing cause, that ali appears "uil Of courage aud
strength" There is 40 mistake about the signs Of
the times. The nomination of Gen. Harrison is
dlspla yed every where from the Wing apers,-
those citade.s aud symbols Of the sentiments Of the
people. 1t has become the general and all perta-
ding sentiment that he is the only candidat that
can contend with Mr. Van Buren,, and every day
serves but to fortfy the well grounded expectation
that Harrison and Granger will be elected Presi-
dent aud Vice Presilen, by overwhelming MAORI
ties Of The people.
Look al the elections, that have just Terminated
in the leading Southern srI Western States louh
Il, The results in North Carolina. Kentucky, lndi-
ana, Mississippi. and AIatama. Al these States
voted for Gen. Jackson, but they have recently de
clared emphatically, that they are not for Van Bu-
rem. They favored the hero Of \. Orleans. but
they are not willing to be sold over, and tranrier-

Of the sad rhapsodles he has recently
published under the title Of "Tbe
Student"
| pardon him, however, for this
last work more readily than for the
following trait which was told me;
A young American presented him
self TO Mr.. Bulwer the other day,
well provided with letters OF intro
duction. 81 am happy to see you,
said Mr.. B., but it will be difficult
for me to have this honor often.
have already more acquaintance
than my time permits me to cult
vate, and to them owe the hours
| have to dispose Of" Was not this
a piece ofpoliteness exceeding even
the ordinary British afabillty p
Nevertheless, by following the Gus
tom Of his country, MrBulwer would
not have subjected himself to much
Inconvenience, for the English don't
ruin themselves by hospitality
When stranger is introduced TO
them, nnless he be one by whom
some advantage is to be gained, they
give him long heavy dinner, which
has the supper for desert; and then,
after having stuffed him we'll with
roast beef, and filled him with port
and grog one single time, they dis
miss him; and if the unfortunate
man survives such fare, the door of
his entertainers is never opened to
him again, except to foodless visits.
Walter Scott, unlike Mr. Bulwer,
treated those who were introduced
to him with more hospitality than
is customary in England"
The mention Of grog looks sus-
picious andmakes US think that our
Frenchman kept rather questiona-
BILE company in London. 1t is evil
dent that he has not enjoyed Eng
lish hospitality where it can only be
fully enjoyed, and where it is most
literally dispensed-in the country.

American, whether true or not, CO.
