in such a manner as to disseminate such in

valuable to its readers.
In regard to the political course to be pur-
sued by the EXPRESS, its proprietors would
observe, that the day is passed, whent would
be considered reproach to periodical pub
lication of this kind, to refrain from the ,d5ta
cussion ofmatters ofa party political character
and that in their opinion the paper may be
filed with matter other than exciting political
disuuisitions, which shall be Of equal impor-
tance to it's readers, and to the country at
large. In making these remarks, 1T is not to
be understood, that politics are to be entirely
excluded from the columns ofthe Express; on
the contrary, its conductors consider them-
selves atlberty to animadvert freely upon the
acts and doings Of all parties, as well as to-
pursue independently any political course
which NAV be considered beneficial to the
cause of equal rights, and republican institu.

THE DISCARDED.

BY LIEUT.. q. W, pATTEN, U. s. A,
Is woman's love SO lightly won,
Obedient to call,
That like the Tyre We play upon,
Twill change and sigh with all
80 tell him from this hour we part,
And own no mutual shrine
will not brook another's heart
Should share the joys of mine.
My step is light---my smile is gay,
Nor yetmy eye is dim
Go tell him how in halls / stray
And never think Of him;
And how a. eve, when music's tone
Comes gushing DER the air,
feel not in my bower alone,
Nor miss his presence there.
do not love-I do not hate
It were an idle thing
In pulling strain l will not prate,
Nor yet the gauntlet fling:
But tell him like some passing CLEAN
That fits along the lea,
And like shadow on stream,
His memory is to me.
Perchance he thought with simple guile
To pyoUe me like sword;
And dweit with cunning craft the while
Upon the strangers word.
But tell him when he left my side
i knew not that he went;
Nor shall clothe my lips with pride,
Nor sigh with discomfort.
Ye voices soft, why Ger my heart
Come with your promptings kind!
And has he tasted of the smart
Which stings an anguish'd mind
care not for his troubled sleep
Yet whisper to his ear,
My eye is not too proud to weep,
But frozen is the tear.
And tell him though his every look
Cold distance shuns to see:
Though like falsely label'd book,
His name is now to me
And tho no more like music bland,
His voice may haunt my rest:
I,oear his je,oel on my hand,
His image on my breast.
