Miss, who took her seat IN the sleigh,
by the side of her partner for the evening,
and set out for a ride Of some twenty miles,
to Join the dance. She was young and
gay, and her charms Of youth and beauty
never were loyeler than when dressed for
that New Years ball. OF course too
thinly clad for the season, and especially
for that dreadful day, she had not gone far
before she complained of being cold, very
cold; but their anxiety to reach the end
of their ride in time TO be present at the
opening of the dance, induced them Il
hurry onward without stopping by the
way. Not long after this complaining
she said that she felt perfectly comfortable,
was now quite warm aud that there was
no necessity of delay ON her account
They reached, at length, the house where
the company were gathering; the young
man leaped from the sleigh, aud extended
his hand to assist her out, but she did not
offer hers; he spoke TO her, but she an.
swered not she was dead---stone dead
frozen stiii-a corpse on the way TO ball.

Gently eornered by Wing in this place.
The assertion had been made by the Loco
Foco that Gen. Harrison voted for the A.
lien and Sedition Laws and that he had
the documents in his house to prove it,
This coming TO the ears Of a Wing the
question was asked whether he had made
the assertion, when it was reiterated. At
ter some conversation relative to the truth
# this assertion he was forced to admit
mat he was wrong. Now here an asser-
ton has been made at variance with truth
and had il not been met and contradicted
at the start would no doubt have been ex.
tensiyely circulated. At the time these
laws were passed Gen. Harrison was moi
in Congress, which can be proved. Even
admitting him TO have been in Congress
he would not have been permitted to vote
as delegates are not permitted to exercise
that privilege, Ohio being territory al
that time.

The Reason rhy office holders make rar
anon credit, and cry out for an exclusive
metallic currency, is purely selfish. They
prolit largely by the fluctuations and en-
|horrassmcnts their anarchical and revou-
,;onary conduct produces. BY making
snecie an article Of merchandise, they APP
nrec,ate its market value. Thus, Mr..
Van Buren's salary if specie bad continued
nc bigh as il was month or two ago,
would be increased to q 800. He is en-
|tted to $4,000 per annum. BY running
snecie up to 10 cents above lis ordinary
y,Iue he increases his salary, which is paid
in specie, at that rate per cent. Office
holders therefore get good quid pro quo
for their loco.iocoism. The sums exacred
from the people in one year by the office.

Take the Cabinet, for example. The
Secretary of War, Of State, Of the Navy
Of the Treasury, the Post Master General
and the Attorney General, each are allow
ed $4,000 a year. During part of the
| last year their salaries have been worth
| $4,000 And 50 with all the other office

several millions
Thus, the people may sec at glance
one of the strongest reasons why Office

From the National hteliigencer.

A few anecdotes occurred at the Wing
meeting in this city on Saturday last, which
seem TO be quite ominous Of the coming
result Of The political campaign of the pres
ent year, l740. They turned chiefly on
the fact Of SO many original and ardent
Jackson men making their appearance IN
the Wing ranks at this auspiclOus ceremo-
ny under the very noses Of the men in pow
er, who have followed the footsteps with
The reckless impetuoslty Of uncontrolled,
ungoverned steam pressure. The singular
circumstances III the very focus Of ENecu-
tive patronage being remarked to one Of
them by an original Wing, the quondam
Jacksonian replied that 1t was good sign
Of the final triumph of truth over error
that il was in perfect good keeping with
the very fundamental principles Of Chris
tianitv itself, which would have but few
converts if repentlng sinners were rejected
that the army of Christ was greatly
strengthened by the recruits Of penitents-
and that there would be but few saints III
Heaven if they were cast out he therefore
hoped that the original Wings would give
a kind reception to these new recruits, and
know how 10 appreciate their accession to
work and do service in the good cause Of
,'oid &c rerired."
May God send rapid accession of Jack
son and Van Buren, penitents to the good
Wing and Conservative cause throughout
the land
