BRITISH POLITICAL PARTIES

L
The state of parties in Englrnd was never so
involved as it is at this moment. Formerly the
zwo great factions of Wings and Tories divided
alike the legislature and the country. The mob
shouted with hard INCONSISTENCY at the heels OF
each and forsook their IDOL and adored his rival,
as hope, disappointment, or caprice might lead
Them. Their variations, however, constant as
they were, were always from Wing 10 Tory, or
from Tory 10 Wing. They always acknowledg-
ed as their leaders the great men OF the party
which they for the time supported; and there
were, in fact, but two parties in the state.
How very different is the case now The first
glance at the political state of England shows us
Eve distinct and well-defned parties, having
each different creeds different objects, and differ
ent modes of action in all political matters 1t
is in vain to attempt 10 gather these disordant
hosts under the insignia of the two great antag-
enist principles of conversation and reform. If
they were thus separated, they would often man.
ifest greater hostility 10 those whom they are
stationed to attack. The Duke of Wellington
and Lord Melbourne are certainly not so oppos-
ed to each other in political views as are Lord
John Russell and Feargus O'Conner, or Sir Ro-
bert Peel and Mr.. Gathefcole. Yet of the Duke
of Wellington and Lord Melbourne, one is
Conservative and the olher is a RefOrmer; while
Lord ]. Russell and Feargus O'Conner are both
Conservatives.
The country is divided into five distinct parties
Tories, Conservatives, Wings Radicals, and
Chartists.
THE TORIES.
The Tories have made themselves manifest
enough; and they have proved that they are not
only violent, but also numerous party. That
they exult in all the reckless violence of an ex-
IRENE and unshrinking faction, is sufficiently
proved by the speeches which have been ringing
through the nation during the whole of this re-
cess. When we find the chief speakers at all
their political assemblies, denouncing the obedi-
ence of the Crown TO the Catholic Eman .ipation
Act as reasonable deed-when we see them
threatening expulsion to the Sovereign, and i'm
parchment TO her mnisters-when we find them
speaking of the ladies Of the Qneens Court IN
language which no sober minded men would use,
when we read their ferocious anathemas against
the ministers of the Crown, couched in language
which was never before heard in political con-
ficts in England when we hear them calling
for repeal of the Emancipation Act, and DELHI
erately repeating the repudiated declaration of
Lvndhurst, that the Irish are aliens in language
..i'i'!ion. and in blood, we cannot but acknow-
- a, I...,ii is very different party from that
which is led b. Wellington and Peel; and that
the leaders of this party differ as materially from
the leaders of the Conservatives as the leaders of
The Wings differ from the leaders of the Char

OLD TIP.

On, dear to my soul the days of our glory.
The time honored days of our national pride,
when heroes and statesmen cnoblcd our story,
And boldly the foes of our country defed.
When victory hung DER our flag proudly waving,
And the battle was fought by the valiant and true,
For our homes and loved ones the enemy Drawing,
Oh then stood the soldier of Tippecanoe.
The iron armed soldier, the true-hearted soldier,
The gallant old soldier of Tippecanoe.
gVhen dark the tempest, and lowering DER us,
The cloucs of destruction seemed gathering fast,
Like ray of bright sunshine he stood out before us,
And the clouds passed away with the hurryng blast,
When the Indians loud yell, his tomahawk flashing,
Spread terror around rs, aud hope was with few,
On then, through the ranks of the enemy dashmg,
Sprang forth to the rescue Old TipFecanoe.
The iron armed soldier, the true-hearted soldier,
The gallant old soldier Of Tippecanoe.
When cannous were peang and brave men Keeling
In the cold arms of death the fire of the foe,
Where balls few The hicke and blows fell the quickest,
In the front of the battle bold Harry did go.
The force Of the enemy trembled before him,
And soon from the field eff his glory withdrew,
And his hearted comrades in triumph cried DER him
God bless the bold soldier of Tppeeanoe!
The iron armed soldier, the trne hearted soldier,
The gallant old soldier of TPpecanoe.
And now since the men have long held the nation,
Who trampled rights in their scorn TO the ground,
We will ell their cold hearts with new trepdaton,
And shout in their this most terrible sound
The people are coming, resstess and fearless,
To sweep from the white house the reckless old crew.
Ror the of land, since its rulers are fearless
We Hook for relief 10 old Tppecanoe.
The iron armed soldier the true hearted soldier,
The gallant old soldier Of TIPpecanoe
The people are coming, from PLAIN and from mountain,
To Join the brave band of the honest and free,
Which grows the from the leafshetered fountain,
Spreads broad and more broad till ii reaches the
No strength restrain it, no force retain it,
whate'er may resist, it breaks CALAMITY through,
And borne by its motion ship on the ocean,
Speeds in his glory old Tippecanoe.
The iron armed soldier, The true hearted soldier,
The gallant old soldier of TIfpecanoe.

Murder, and him it is justice-a duty are

She rose from the table, the veins darkeped on
her white brow, her cheeks coloring crimson
and her eyes flashing, as if she knew not the
meaning of fear
"But," said Eugene, pale with contending pas
sions, "what needs this marriage?"
"What! let him Ievel in my fathers wealth,
which can only inherit as his widow 2"
He caught the earnest gaze of her large black
eyes, the pleading finer beautiful lips he caught
her small white hands and Swore upon them to
do her will.
'You must leave me now" said she, cit is
late" and she led him to the door, and, as it
closed, he again met those radiant eyes, and
surely love was in their long and lingering
look.
That night the hotel was disturbed by an ar
rival. The wind had changed and the packet
entered the haIbor. Next morning Eugene learn
ed that Sir George WalSingham had come; he
learned, too, that orders had been sent to prepare
the chapel for marriage. In vain he sought
another interview with allegro A carriage at
length drove up TO the door. Supported by tall,
dark, tern-lookiDg man, allegro was borne to
the vehicle; Eugene followed it. arrived Just as
the ceremony was concluding. Sir George held
his victim by the arm, and fixed his keen eye
upon her, with cold and cruel expression; she
was almost hidden by her veil but she was
trembling and the little of her face that could be
seen was white as the marble of the monuments
around the chapel

forward and struck the bridegroom in the face.
"Liar, murderer and coward! do you dare fol-
low me?"
The Engishman started and struck him in re-
turn.
"For life or for death-yours or mine!" cried
Eugene, offering him one of two pistols.
They retreateda few PAGES, fired and both fell;
Sir George was killed. the Partisan dangerously
wounded. He was carried to his hotel. where he

array pervade its ranks, and have bro
ken i>to fragments the Macedonian
PhaIanx which sustained this once
powerful party. Squadron after SQUAD
ron has already renowned its aIlegi-
ance to IFS aposlate leader, and is seen
displayed in solid column under the
broad banner of Harrison. Virginia,
that mother Of distinguished statesmen,
that guardian priestess of the fame of
liberty, and so long the oracle of Re-
publican doctrines, has raised her
standard with its ever glorious motto of
SIC semper tyrannis," against these
enemies Of the constitution. The old
north State, though slow to be aroused
from her lethargy, in her recent move
ments has fully compensated by her
spirited action for her former delay.
And Maine too, whose sons are taught
freedom by the proud and majestic
ocean that rolls and breaks its free and
unieuered pillows upon her rugged
coast, has abandoned her position in
the ranks Of power and enlisted in the
cause offreedom. Not a mail arrives
but it brings the glad tidings Of chan
ges in the east and the west, in the
north and the south, which an ANNA
ted and patriotic zeal for reform has
produced among the people.
In connection with the indignant
feeling Of the opposition, which the
corrupt and reckless course of the adj
ministration has raised, the sterling
qualities of Gen. Harrison, his pure
and disinterested heart, his incorrupt-
ible integrity of principle, his uncon-
querable spirit Of independence, and
his patriotic devotion to the interests
of his country, have co-operaled 10 en-
list a degree of zeal in this contest ne
yer surpassed on any previous occa-
sion.
In the approaching struggle let ev-
cry man do his duty and glorious vic
.ory is ours.
The election Of Harrison will be the
triumph Of principle, and to him will
be the honor Of restoring the govern
ment 10 its original purity and simpli-
city, and of establishing the invaluable
precedent of retiring from the Presi-
| dency at the expiration of one term.
