The Irish Corporation Bill as it is termed con-
tlnues to occupy the attention of Parliament and
the people. In the Lords the clause extending the
right of suffrage to occupants of E5 tenements has
been rejected, and 6 10 substituted Ministers have
acceded to this change and will doubtless pass the
House of Commons as it returns from the Lords.
notwithstanding the declaration of O'Connel and
Others that they would refuse to receive it with the

The import of Cotton continues heavy, and the

~ On the 9th of March last, an Abolition
Society in Pittsburg addressed letter to Gov.
ernor Rtner propounding several queries in re.
latonto his views on the subject of Anti Slavery
The Governor answered this letter in April in
such manner as proved satisfactory to the qner-
ists Upon the exposure of this correspondence,
the "Citizen's Press" decided Wing paper
printed at Piltsburg, comes out in most doIorous
terms condemning what it calls the infatuated
course of Mr.. Rtner. Among other things it
says:-
IF any man had predicted this; had any one
dared even 10 insinuate that Mr.. Ritner would
have given into this spreading deIusion-or that
he would have thus publicly subscribed to the
mad tenets o., this party-such a man would
have been denounced and branded as SANDER
er. This public avowal. therefore, on the part
of Gov Riiner, of Abolition principles will be
to his Vine supporters and to all the friends Of
HENRY CLAY, like clap of thunder in winter
It will electrify and shock every politician in the

produce revulsion throughout the whole coun-

party that will overwhelm him The abandon.

put sword and buckler into the hands of the
Christian, and he was left alone. He drew
the mantle from his face, and firmly looked

In not chicken; have seen
Full many chill September;
And though was youngstsr then,
That day well remember;
saw the storm coiled up in Clouds
II slumbered like q viper;
But when the lightnings woke il up,
My eye il was wiper
1t came as quarrels sometimes do, ..
When married folks get clashing;
There was heavy sigh or two.
Before the fire was flashing
little stir among the clouds,
Before they rent asunder.-
A little rocking Of the trees,
And then came on the thunder.
Lord how the ponds and rivers boiled
They seemed like bursting craters;
And oaks lay scattered on the ground,
As if they were potatoes;
And all above was in howl,
And all below a clatter;
The earth was like a frying. pan,
Or some such Kissing matter.
II Glanced to be our washing day,
And all our things were drying
The storm came roaring through the lines,
And set them all a-fying;
saw the shirts and pelticoats
Go riding off like witches;
lost--ah bitterly wept--
lost my Sunday breeches
saw them straddling through the air,
Alas too late to win them;
saw them chase the clouds, as if
The devil had been in them;
They were my darlings and my pride,
My boyhood's only riches
Farewell, FAREWELL" family cried,
My breeches 0, my breechesr'
That night saw them in my dreams;
How changed from what knew them
The dews had stepped their faded threads;
The winds had whistled through them.
saw the wide and CHASTITY rents
Where demon claws had torn them ..
A hole was in their hinder parts,
AS if an imp had worn them. o.#

And tailors kind and clever;
But those young pantaoons have gone,
Forever and forever!
And not till fate has cut the last
OF all my earthly stitches,
This aching heart shall cease 10 mourn
