THE BRIDEMAID.

The bridal is over, the guests are al gone,
The brideps only sister sits weeping alone;
The wreath Of whine roses is torn from her brow,
And the heart Of the bFidemaid is desolate now.

And then led her forth with aftectionate PRIDE
She knew thai no more together they should gwen,
Yet she smiled when she kissed her. and whispered
farewell! " ssf lg1
She would not embittor festival day,
Nor snnd her sweet sister in sadness away;
She hears the bells ringing, she secs her depart,

In l728, the last year of John Q. Adams admin
lsirailon the receipts for duties on imports were

ABOLITION.

II is well known that there arc two soci-
ciics in Massachusetts, Garrison and anti
Garrison. At meeting of the Groton So
ccIy recently, the following among other
resolutions were adopted:
Res Iced. That no cause exists for the for
nation of the antagonist society called the
Massachusetts Abolition Society, and that
the reasons assigned by the friends of the
ncw organization are false and hypocrltical.
Rcsoircd, That the senseless olamor re-
Gently raised against the Massachusetts So
cicty, is the result of clerical plotting, sec
tartan jealousy, and disappointed ambition.
These arc hard words TO use. The new
society advocate political action as n party
ut the polls. Mr.. Garrisons doctrine is
Understandable any abolitionist 90 10
the polls, feeling it to be his duty, but make
moral action only the grand article of his
creed
At meeting of the Middlesex anti-savc-
ry society, July %, certain resolutions cen
suring the Liberator, and the proceedings of
the old Massachusetts ant-slaverv society,
were laid on the table-when the Rev.
Mcssrs Scott, Woodbury., st Clair, Wise,
Horton, Porter, How, Moulton, Brown, and
others, retired and organized an abolition

BtdsPhemy.-A separate celebration of
the Fourth was got up by the Loco focos at
the Chatham street Chapel in the city of
New Y DIRK, and, as we learn from the New
York American, it was arranged that the
meeting should be opened by PRAYER by the
Rev Mr.. Van Pclt Of Staten Island. In con-
sequence of certain NOISY demonstrations.
the Rev. gentleman declined, when PRAYER
written Tor the occasion, was read by per-
son present. During the reading, it was al
ternately applauded and Kissed, as its words
echoed the sentiments ofvarious hearers. or

We venture TO say that an exhibition, SO
shockingly blasphemous and profane, has
never before disgraced the celebration of
our National Anniversary and for the hon
or OF the country, we hope never TO hear of
the repetition of such outrages The inf
dels OF Tammany hall are becoming even
worse and more degraded than the devotees
of the goddess of Reason in Revolutionary
France. They mock ct the Christian reli-
gIon and scof at the soemnization of its
most sacred rites. They seek the overthrow
of everything that would give permanency
TO our government, and security TO proper
ty liberty and even life itself And vet the
same agrarlans are caressed and petied, and
taken into full political communion by the
present administration. We ask the friends
of law, of order, and ofreligion, to ponder
upon these things, and reflect long, before
they lend themselves indirectly to promote
such evil influences.
President Van Buren, was present and
participated in this celebration.
Rutland herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1823-1847, 1839-08-06

Let Il be remembered, that the expendi-
lures OF the General Government, during
the last year under Mr.. Van Burcn's eco
nomlcal administration, exceeded the lar
gest amount expended in any year during
The late war, more than ten millions of dol
lars. In 1914, the year in which the ex-
renditures reached their maximum height.
they amounted to $50, l27, 667 So; and in
1855, the second year of Mr. Van Buren's
Administration, in time of profound peace
they reached the enormous sum of forty mil

dollars !-pf. Times.

EssEN BANK.-According to the reports
aloat, the bills Of this bank arc no better
as currency than the Treasury shin plas-
tors Of our hard money administration
Since the transfer of the stock 10 other
hands. but little confidence has been placed
IN us fidelity to the public, or lis solycncy,
and consequently very few of its notes are
m circulation in Nermont--probably less
than $1,000; and should il fail, no loss need
be sustained by our citizens. The bank
seems TO have enjoyed "A better credit a.
broad than at home. An intelligent gem
tlcman of Essex county, not interested in
the bank, informed us that the bank few
days since continued 10 pay specie, and the
gentleman further remarked that he should
make no sacrifice upon the paper were he

Of Mr.. Van Burcn's political character and
estimate of his talents, was written in 1885.
by the Hon. Alexander Everett, now attach
ed as supernumerary TO the Custom House
brass band. OF the truth of the portrait,
or the taste of the painter in his coloring,
we express no opinion.
Throughout these proceedings we see
distinctly the character of the man "a mar
row. sordid. selfish spirit, pursuing little
ends by little means no loftincss of pur-
pose !; no power, depth, or reach of mind I;
no generosity of feeling; no principle; of
course, no faith in the existence oc such
qualities in others. He enters on the high
and sacred concerns of government in the
same temper in which as village lawyer
he sat down TO play AL Eoms at the ale
house, and is just as ready TO employ any
trick that will increase his share of the
poHs Of ricfory.
His talents, as far as he possesses, any,
lit him to act upon this theatre. His Hrle
narro,c s0rdid soul is al lone IN the Htle arts,

Gus, monkey tricks. TINT moyJ be supposed 10 de-
