THE You've LOVERS. To the man
who is little of philosopher, and
bachelor to boot, and who, by dint OF
some experience in the follies of life,
begins to look with a learned eye upon
the ways Of man, and the eye Of wo-
men-to such man say, there is
something very entertaining in mott
cling the conduct of a pair of lovers. 1t
may not be as grave and scientific a
study as the loves of the parents; but
it is certainly interesting. lhave there
fore derived much pleasure, since my
arrival at the Hall, from observing the
fair Julia and her lover. She has all
the delightful blushing consciousness
of an artless girl, inexperienced in CO.
quety, who has made her first conquest;
while the captain regards her with that
mixture of fondness and exultation
with which young lover isapt to con-
template so beauteous prize. l OBJ
served them yesterday in the garden,
advancing along one of the retired
walks. The sun was shining with
delicious warmth, making great masses
of bright verdure and deep blue shade.
The cuckoo, that harbinger Of Spring,
was family heard in the distance; the
thrush piped from the hawthorn, and
the yellow butterfly sported and toyed
and futtered in the air. The fair Julia
was leaning on her lovers arm, listen
ing to his conversation, with her eyes
cast down, "a soft blush upon her cheek,
and quiet smile on her lips, while in
the hand that hung, negligently by her
side, was bunch Of flowers. In this
way they sauntered along, and when !
considered them, & the scene in which
they were moving, / could not but
think it thousand pities that the sea-
son should ever grow older, or that
blossoms should ever give way to fruit,
or that lovers should get married.
IHE VALUE OF THE UNIoN.-Per-
haps not one Of the least of the circum-
stances which render to Union impor-
tant to all the respective states. is the
immediate loss of our national indenti-
ty in case ofour ACKNOWLEDGMENT. We
may say without any boasting that the
United States have acquired very
high reputation throughout the world
for the strength Of their government
and the enterprise and bravery of their
people. So long as the Union conti-
nues in its present state, each one of
retrospective statcspartakes Of the glo-
ry of the whole. Let one of our citi-
zens come from the least important Of
the states, and make his appearance
among foreigners, in foreign land,
and he is respected as citizen of the
Emitted States. He is regarded as an
Individual Of great people, who have
shownb by former achievements inarms
that they are always ready to protect
their rights and avenge their wrongs.
This is one great advantage which
flows from our being identified as one
nation and one people. On the other
hand, in case Of dismembcrment Of
the Union, though it divide itself but
into two parts, foreigners, henceforth,
world no longer identify each of those
divisionsas the great nation whose arms
they have so much respected. They
would either regard them both as UNI
worthy Of inheriting the glory Of our
present government, or they would
give the whole of the glory to one Of
these divisions, and regard the other
as mere offcast. In either case, there
would ever after exist great difficulty
among foreigners in identifying true
Americans; and the respect which they
obtained abroad would be diminished
in about the same proportion in which
their government was Weakened
Whatever name the separate confedcra-
cies might assume, neither Of them
would be identified as. the proper u.
States of America, and neither ofthem
would be considered as worthy ofin-
heriting the glory Of Washington and
Jackson. - Boston Post
