title Of Mr. Fays forthcoming novel is The Countess

Now we protest. that we neither guessed at the
authorship Of Sidney Clifton" nor remembered
the fascinating name Of "Countess Ida" We have
the pleasure OF knotrag whoisthe author Of" Sidney
Clifion"-he is as graceful and flowing writer, as
clever poet and as amiable man, as often enters
your crowd on Change. And this is not all that
may be said Of him. He is not pulling senlimen-
taist-he is not "poor devil author" writing for
his bread-no lackadaisical drone-no literary
twattler-he is not Mr.. Fay-he isnot Mr. Haleck,
nor Mr. Bryant, nor Mr.. Irving nor Mr. Paulding,
nor Mr. Wetmore, nor Col. Stone. But he is a
citizen whose reigM should be many stone-a

venerable Republican, who has seen
long and trying service in the cause OF PoPu-
lar rights; and who is still anxious to devote
his few remaining days TO the same service;
who has sustained Jefferson, and Madison,
and Monroe, and Jackson and Van Buren,,
and was recently member OF the United
STATES Senate, writes us in the following
strain:
al shall be glad to see Mr.. Rives again in the Sc
nate or in some place whee his distinguished talents
and patriotism can be useful to the country. Unless
am greatly mistaken, / have not in my long life,
known more pure minded man, or elevated patri-

world, and mol for a party and il would give me
great delight 10 see him fill the first place in our Ma
tional Councils. But should not want to have him

long been opposed TO them, that may not be able TO
do them justice, and have been SO long associated
with the Democracy of the country, that all my po-
lilica associations and feelings are with them

tell them so, and it ought not and will not go down
Our distinguished friend, Rives has been hos'
against it and probably the means Of defeating the
measure. If he has lost his popularity thereby, he
has sacrificed it the altar of his countrys good
Il hope and trust he will retain ito hear him
abused and called traitor is very trying to the feel
ings of an old man like me. My feelings are deeply
interested in his welfare. have never known an
individual who has made so deep and favorable an
impression on my mind, and TO hear him called to
account, by my friends Niles and Norvell, was
strange TO me; but rejoice that his noble bearing,
and pure and exalted mind disdained to reply. His
situation is critical one, out of which hope TO see
him come unscathed, and still stand erect before the
American people. II he ever rises to the station TO
which nature and circumstances seem to have de-
signed him--the highest seat on earth he must stand
uneoninitted and maintain an armed neutrality,"

IL We understand that our remarks the
other day in relation to Mr.. Riyes, have been
regarded by the Baltimore Chronicle asa pledge
Of Mr.. Rives to the support Of the candidate
of the Wing National Convention. Such
construction was not authorized In the first
place, we had no authority to pledge any man;
and in the next place, we should not have
deemed it prudent nor dignifed for any Con-
sentative to suffer himself to be pledged TO
any man. And we hope, notwithstanding the
calls that have been made upon Mr.. Rives
to come out and declare what man he is for,
that he will not permit his independence to be
trammelled by any such unnecessary pro-
cedure. The Conservatives will be consis.
tent We like the sentiments of the Charles
ton Courier on this subject. We refer the
Wings to the article headed "Mr. Rives and
Mr.. Leigh"

Catherine de Medici was an adept in Coups

feeble imtators in the arcana impe,1i! They
have acquired smattering Of "the art Of

have adopted, unconsciously and ignorantly,
probably, the political maxim ascribed to
Catherine, that "a false report, il believed
during three days, may be Of great service to

MR.. RIYES AND MR.. LEIGH.

We have read with great pleasure, and with almost
entire concurrence, the eloquent letter addressed by
Mr. Leigh TO dinner celebration in honor and
vindcaton Of Mr. Rives There is one point alone, to
which we would take exception-we aude to the
torton Of pledge from Mr. Rivcs Of opposition to Mr..
Van Buren, as President. We trust the Wings of
Virginia will make no such demand. Mr. Leigh has
spoken in magnanimous and deserving terms Of Mr..
Rves stern and disinteresed opposition to the ensav
ing encroachments Of executive power He has given
him credit for maintaining Senatorial Independence aad
personal honor against the debasng and yrant requs
lion Of party, and the monarch will OF the President.
Mr. Rves, thus acting has established his character
as honest and fearless patriot he has raised
claim to the most generous confidence. The Wing
party of Virginia, and of the Union, should not be
willing to ask any future pledge for Mr.. Riyes future
course than his past conduct; he has proved himself
capable Of the largest self-sacrfce. No man in the
nation will deny that if he had chosen to with the
Executive and abandon his principles, he might have
obtained any Office in the gift Of the President. Mr..
Rives can be trusted!
on the side Of power because of the generous offerings
which he has made to the spirit Of liberty. They ad-
mire and respect his noble vndcation of Senatorial in
dependence Let them not attempt 10 trammel that
independence. Let Mr. Rives take his seat in the
Senate Of the United States, free to act his
science and reason may direct. The man who is 70
represent the renowned Commonwealth Of Virginia III
The next Congress Of the United States, will have to
speak words Of indignant truth to dominant faction
drunk with power. Let not his hands be tied nor his
soul tetcrcd Let him take counsel alone from the
patriotism of Washington and the free spirit Of Patrick
Henry. Let his only pledge be fidelity to the sacred
soil which bore him. and then his watch word must be

REPUBLICATION or THE BIBLE.

There is no doubt that the only govern.
ment God ever instituted upon earth was Of
the Republican form, This was the nature
Of the government Of the twelve trib,s.
The June number Of the Christian Review,
contains an article on the Progress of the
Democratic Principle" In discussing the
right means TO be used for promoting true
Democracy, the writer very wisely and justly
says:
"one OF these means is the diffusion Of scriptural

unction sanishes. In word, though it does in-
teero with existing governments but the contrary

enlightened democracy, IN all its parts What could
more Justly lay claim 10 this praise, than the principle,
