Good afternoon Squire Jonesn Good
afternoon friend Darby; come walk in
well, Squire, how is your lovely darter
Sal today, and the rest of the familyr-
why, they are all up and about, particu-
larly Sal, she is very hearty, has a good
appetite, and eats right smart chance,
and the way she smokes her old pipe is
the right way, and sings-why man, she
sings like martingale; oh, sir, she is
burstern well Squire, Pm glad to hear
so much in praise Of Sal, for ! love her
nightly, and mean to court her, too
why that's plain, honest and clever, I'll

she soon made her appearance. 'How are

MAMMOTH BANK.-Since the passage of
the general banking law in the State of
New York, we leara from the city pa
pers, that the leading capitalists have de.
termined on establishing bank with an
extensive capital. The Commercial Adver~
tiser states that the preliminaries have
been adjusted, and there is little doubt but
that the scheme will 60 into operation the
ensuing summer--and adds
awe shall have bank Of forty or fifty
millions; bank that will take the lead OF
the Union--and which, in the absence OF
a National bank, will be the next best en-
CINE ofcurrency to such an institution
With such bank New York will soon
again resume her own onward career as
the commercial queen Of the wcst; the
clouds yet hanging over her prosperity
will be dispelled, and her proud pre-eml-
nence will be sustained"

VOLUNTARY HANGING.--An Indian Cniel
of the Cherokee tribe, while on board
steamboat at Cincinnati, hung himself IN

cause, il is surmised, than that ne had been
ill.treated by the general government

THERE'S MUSIC.

There's music IN the breath Of flowers
tFar gift Of the gaddening spnng,l
Which mock all other things Of earth
In their bright apparelliRg.
There's music in the voice of streams,
Rushing On to the sounding sea,
As they silently glide on their fearless course,
With their faint, low melody.
There's music in the ftful tone
OF the balmy summer breeze, 49,
As it sends through the lonely, midnight air,
A sigh from the forest trees.
There's music in the tempest's voice,
And the moan Of the painless sea
For they guide thoughts from this wOrk-day world
To dreams of eternity.
There's music in oil the things Of earth;
And the silent stars of Heaven
Have a dream-hke music Of their own,
To the God of Creation given.
Though the boundless realms Of viewless space
Those choral symphonies rise,
From the thousand spheres Of the starry world,
To the Maker Of earth and skies

DEMOCRACY OF THE PRESENT ADMINS.
..= TRATTON


Extract from The speech Of Mr.. Ta1modge.
God deliver me from such democracy! A de-
mocracy which concentrates all power IN the hands
Of one mana democracy which subjects the opin-
ions and actions of party followers to his viii. and to
his will alone-a democracy which makes the great
and paramount interests of the country subservent TO
the low and groveng pursuits Of party-a democracy
urgent the necessity may be, without orders from head
quarters-a democracy that appeals TO the passions
and preudces Of the people, instead Of enlghtening
their patriotism-a democracy which attempts to set
up one class OF the community against the other rs If
their interests were not reciprocal and idenGcaL-a
democracy which denies to every man the right TO
think and act for himself those great questions in
which the vital interests Of the country are so deeply
lnvoved-a democracy which attempts, by party drill
and party discipline, TO subyert the very spirit Of the
Constitution, to substitute Executive for Legislative
power subject the will Of the Representative to the
will of the Executive, to compel him to act contrary
to his own opinions against his own Judgment. in vio
lation of his own conscience and in open defiance Of
the expressed will and wishes Of his constituens-a
democracy which extends its influence from the seat
Of the General Government to the respective states
which swallows up the reserved rights of the states in
the consolidation OF the central power-a democracy,
in Short which establishes in the heart Of the country
the most perfect despotism under the delusve form Of
free institutions.
Yes, Mr. President, such is the democracy ofthis
federal administra ton-an administration that has
adopted the ultra federalism Of the reign Of terror,
and now charges upon its former friends the sin Of it's
own commission Sir, the people Of the United States
cannot he deceived by these vain and hollow preten-
ces. Democracy, like monarchy, viii be known by
its fruits The hitter fruits Of this administration have
already rpened sufficiently to indicate the tree on
which they ,grow-and the people have long since
tasted enough enable them, like first parents, to
distinguish between good and evil Sir. the contest
which is now waging, is to determine the future char
acier Of our Government. Upon its result depends
the question Of the Independence Of the legislative
branch and also that Of the supremacy of the popular
over the Executive will As these shall be desermiR-
ed, will the character Of government be. The
contest will form an epoch in annals, and the fu-
hon. viii date from this period the rise or foil Of our
Republican institutions"

HARvEsTINs-A HoGr upon our Dutch Governor
During the present harvest, Gov. Rtner visited many
Of the fields where the industrious laborer was en-
pioyed. In one there were several Porter men they
rather insulfed his Excellency, offered their cradles
and wished 10 know whether he could take his hand
at cutting down grain. Old Joe pulled off his coat
jacket. shoes and stockings, and then set in for
through. The leader led. as usual; five weIl-man-
ned cradles following. when the party came up to the
bottle, the leader halted. The Governor cries out
No. boys. we go another through before we drink
the others carried on the joke. Before the next
through was half done, the leader gave out and Old
Joe four Farmer GOvenOr led the party round to the
