IL ia not a little amusing TO witness the surnri.c
which the Van Buren, papers exhibit a; the re.igs.
ton OF Nicholas Biddle. They are eviden;l, cha.
gTined that Mr.. Biddic, has retired to the sbsd.,
OF private life, from whence they canno, drag him
to trighten the Bank hating supporters Of their
chief into implicit obedience TO the beck of party
directors. Their strange surmises as to the cause
ct his retiring, are an admirable index TO the NOR
thcaton which they feel, at being thu. de prived Of
the most potent of their ,alismanic ~watchwords-
biddle and the Bank"-which has opersted as n
charm in keeping their forces from becoming bro.

that he was compelled 20 20 to Europe to look AZ

thought that he has kept the Bank in ctedi, a,
long as no was able. But few, if any, Of the Lo.
co focos, however, seem to have though, tina,
Mr.. Biddlo could ever weary in his arduous du,ie,
TO an extent that would induce him to seek for "a
pose, and renovation Of spirits aud health in the
invigorating walks ofdomestic retirement. He had
withstood all the bolts that hadbeen hurled agains,

successor, and they thought him invested with .
superhuman energy and power that could nevel

DEATH OF IIEzEKIAH NILEs.-We re-

friends have for some time anticipated,
took place at Wilmington, Delaware, yes
terday morning. He had been, for seve.
era' years, in declining health, the result
ola life of great labor, as the publisher of
the Register which has rendered his
name immortal. Mr.. NILES was a prin-
ter, by profession, n man Of strong and
ardent feelings, of considerable talent and
OF an industry so untiring that he achiev.
ed results which men of superior intellect,
but, less capable of labor, would have
failed to accomplish. He was, besides,
ola frank, honorable, independent and
truly republican spirit, simple in his man
ners and habits, affectionate to his family,
liberal to those whom he employed in the
prosecution of his business, disinterested
and public spirited. HIS life was one of
great usefulness, and few men in our
country have done more to connect their
names, in an honorable manner with the
public enterprises in which the welfare Of
society is concerned.-Bah. Chron.

HAD NOME.
had a home wherein tho wcaries, feet
Found sure repose
Aud Hope lcd on hilarious dan, 10 meet
ltliehtfnl close;
A cottage, with broad caves. and thick vine
chrystal stream,
Whose mountain language was the same as mine:
II was dream
had home 10 make the soomlesl heart
Allght with by
temple Of chaste love, pIncc apart
From times Onney
a hdoniighi scene of hic, where aft lLncs ri1c
And harsh, did seem
With pity rounded, and by grace sublucd--
II was dream!
