Old Tin AT Home.

GEN HARRISON arrived in the city
from North Bend on Saturday, and we
never saw him in better health or spirits.
We notice the condition of his health
because the Loco Foco papers and lea

means Of defrauding the people out of
their choice are representing him as be-
ing feeble, decrepit, and on the very
verge of the grave; and we have 1t

that one game they intend to play is TO

the election, for the purpose of dishear.

Nothing would afford us more gratiii-

this "superanuated, decrepit, feeble, old

some ten or dozen Of his chosen cap

so deeply interest this nation. If they
really do believe that his intellect or his
physical powers as speaker are in the

they would be led to exclaim, what must

An Elonuent Article.


Our friend Prentice, OF the far-iamed
Louisville Journal, who is brilliant
poet, chaste and eloquent prose writer
the first wit in the Republic, a faithful
and fearless champion upon the political
watch tower, and a glorious Wing withol,
gives vent to the following eloquent and
glowing thoughts upon a theme that Is
of itself all eloquence:
The great battle has been fought; the
victory is won. The Constitution, so
long desecrated by the traitorous pard-
san, is resuming its early glory; the
true-souled patriot will again behold the
fire Of Liberty blazing on her reinstat-
ed affairs; the torch of freedom re-kin-
died by the Wings of eighteen hundred
aud forty, will again flash over our great
and glorious Union; morality will again
behold her shattered temple rearing its
pillars in all their pristine splendor; and
the country, at the trumpet-blast of her
delverers, will arise from the tomb Of
commercial, agricultural, and financial
desolation.
The struggle has been desperate one,
for it was between the betrayer and the
betrayed. We struggled for political
existence the God of justice, the same
Providence that gave victory TO our ia
theirs on the halowed battle-felds of the
Revolution, has youchsa(ed his protectior
to us and crowned our exertions with tr
umph, and never was q victory NOR,

The ANACONDA,
AN EAST INDIA TALE.
Concluded.

Now then.I expected to see the anaconda
satisfy the hunger by which he had SO long
been tormened 5; but was ignorant that it
is not the custom of this animal to divide
its prey, but to swallow it in one enormous
morsel, the size of the murdered OK made
this impossible without much preparation
and now learned from the snakes proceed
ings, the necessity which there was for her

some large tree. She again seized the an

upright, leaning against the trunk. Hav-

the carcass together 10 one great fold. and

me at the door and informed me that the

for from CoIumbo were arrived, and that
physician had accompanied them. ! i'm

conda had by this time entirely covered the
carcase with her slime, and was in the very
act OF gorgng this monstrous morsel. This
task Was not accomplished without violent
efforts full hour elapsed before she had
quite flushed her dreadful meal at length
the carcase was entirely swallowed and she
stretched herself out at iull length in the
grass with her body distended to the most
astonishing dimensions Every trace Of her
former livelness and activity had disap-
peared. Her lmmoderate appetite had now
yielded her up, lmpotent and detonceless, a
prey even to the least formidable foe.

THE RING,

Queen Elizabeth gave to the Earl Of Es-
sex a Ring, assuring him that into whatever
disgrace he might fall, or whatever pre- ju-
dlces she might herself be induced to en-
tertain against him, yet if he sent her that
ring. she would Immediately upon the sight
of il recall her former tenderness. Diff
cul,ies at length arose, and he was imprls-
oned in the tower. lie sent the ring To his
mistress, and wondered that he did not re-
ceiye from her some favorable regard
fhe ring had been stopped on the way
The Queen not receiving it, supposed hun
obstinate, and signing the death warrant,
the Earl was executed. Was no wrong
done him Who would be willing to take
the responsibility Of stopping that ring g
The individual who did it was the Countess
of Nottingham, when she came to die was
overwhelmed with remorse. She sent for
ahe Queen and disclosed to her the fact
The Queen, bursting into furious passion
shook the dying Countess in her bed, crying
to her, "that God might pardon her, but
she ,erer could" (See Hume's History of
England. chap XLIV.) The Bible is much
more than the ring. 1t is the token of love
from God to his creatures. Into whatever
difficulties they may fall. if they present to
him this. in humble reliance on the grace
it reveals, he assures them of his compass
sion and the return Of his favor. He will
remember them in mercy; he will save
them. Who will not fear to have this tok-
go Of heavens love stop on his way in his
hands Who will not hasten it to its des-
tination, that every creature may know his
privileges, and by the use of them, obtain
eternal life? Neglect may bring guilt which
it will be difficult to forgive. Il may fill
the soul with anguish, when it will be too
late to recify the evil.

The HeircsS,

A sprightly. rosy-cheeked, faxen-haired
little girl, used to sit. on the pleasant even
! ings of June, on the marble steps opposite
my lodgings, when lived in Philadelphia,
and sing over hundred little sonneis, and
tell as many tales, in voice, and with an
air of delightful simplicity, that charmed
me many time. She was then an orphan
child, and commonly reported'to be rich
often and often sat, after day of toll and
vexation and listened to her innocent voice,
breathing forth the notes of peace aud hap
piness, which flowed cheerfuIly from light
heart, and felt portion of that tranquility
steal over my bosom. Such was Eliza
Hunlley when frs, knew her.
Several years had elapsed, during which
time | was absent from the city, when walk

squares. | saw an elegant female figure

man and two pretty children. l did not

friend, who was by my side, pulled my ell

together in Walnut-sireet! did remember,
it was herself.
She used to be fond, said he, of treat
ing her little circle of friends with roman
ces-and at last she acted out q neat ro-
nance herself. She came out into the gay
circle of life, under the auspices OF her
rich-very rich--bul the amount of wealth
did not appear TO be a matter of publicity /;
however. the current, and as We generally
believed, well founded report, was sufficient
10 draw around her many admirers-and
among the number not few serious cour-
tiers.
She did not wait long, before a young
gentleman, on whom she had looked with
somewhat partial eye, because he was the
cayest and handsomest of her lovers, en-
boldened by her Partially. made her an of
fer. Probably she blushed, and her heart
flnttered a little, but they were sitting in a
moonlight parlor, and as her embarrass-
ment was more than half concealed, she
soon recovered, and as a waggish humor
happened to have the ascendant, she put
on a serious face, told him she was hon"red
by his preference, but there was one mat
ter which should be understood before, by
giving him reply, she bound him to his
promise. Perhaps you may think me
wealthy; ! would not for the world have

started as if electrified. Eighteen hun
