anyone of them, and by apparent hazard,
drew forth from her modest obscurity thG
Princess of Darmstadt. Than this YounG
lady more exquisite specimen Of beauty
called "Blonde" it is impossible to con-
ceive; imagine higher accomplish
ments with demeanor more gentle, or .
temper more angelic.
But, as opposed to Mademoiselle Kallin-
owskl she is inferior in ready and sparkling
wit, in Imagination, in fervid sentimenfr
and, above:. all, (where the enslaving of
hearts is concerned) IN Gin power ofeye."
The safety of the Grand Duke would
have consisted in his remaining some
twelve months longer at Darmstadt, and in
his confirming union with the Princess.
10 return to "auld luve" is always DANCE
rous, and wears something Of fatal aspect
IN the present instance. On arriving at st.
Petersburg he had meeting with Made.
moiselle Kalllnowski, which appears to have
wholly ojhterated his remembrance of his
second love. The Emperor Nicholas Ia
most amable warn-hearted man, in spite
OF all that has been asserted to the con-
trary by malevolence and ignorance has
forborne, affectionately and tenderly, thro'-
out this matter, as far as was consistent
with his station: nor has he in any case un-
dervalued the nobility of feeling so appa-
rent in the breast of Grand Duke. AT the
same time, the marriage ofthe Heritier with
a Polish lady Of any rank whatever could
not, after all that has transpired, be per-
mitted to take place; and therefore tho
Grand Duke was commanded to return in
siaHtly to Darms'ddt.' He set off; but
having reached ZarskoIesolo, determined to
proceed no further. There he remains.
Now, all having been prepared at Hesse
Darmstadt, and in the face of Europe, for
tile reception of the Grand Duke as tile affi-
anced Of the Princess, what is M. Brunow
to do? He has witnessed lavish expendi-
ture in the decoration of the Palace, SO as
to make it worthy of his young masters
next visit: he has sent the portrait Of the
Princess reduplicated, and in every window
as bride elect; he is an accredited agent,
but dipi0mdtist lie can be no longer, for
his occupation is gonon'

OHIO STATE, JOURNAL FOR THE
SESSION.

|. In consonance with previous usage, the
proprietor of the ONO STATE JOURNAL
submits the following Prospectus to the
consideration of the citizens of Ohio. The
political character of the journal Is so well
known, that no new comments are necessa-
ry to explain it. 1t is unequivocally oppo-
sed to the administration of Martin Van
Buren,, and to all the mad schemes of him
selfand his advisers. The Journal will con-
tinue, steadily, in the path of its long avow-
ed and long cherished principles. Success
cannot corrupt it, nor defeat intlmidate it.
As faithful sentinel on the watch-tower of
American liberty, it will always be found
awake on Its post.
During the winter, abundance of Interest
ing matter may be expected from the halls
of our State Legislature. The work of
BANK REFORM is to be finished, by the ma
jority who now rule triumphant, and we, in
common with the whole State, feel anxious
to investigate its operation and its progress.
Our attention will be given to the subject
most amply and unreservedly.
In every other respect, the Ohio State
Journal will adhere to its original plan and
character. 1t will be, emphaticaI.y, a NEWS
PAPER, in whose columns may be found all
the interesting events of the day. Con-
gressonal reports, foreign and domestic
intelligence, together with the opinions of
our contemporaries of the Press, and occa-
sional draughts from the pens of our literatl,
will form an agreeably variety. A generous
support is requested.

A Detroit paper states, that the whole
circulating medium of Michigan, does not
exceed 100000 dollars, being about fifty
cents for each individual. When it is re-
collected, that the best writers upon the sub
iect, make S. per head as the lowest sum
with which country can transact her busl-
ness, the distress that must envelope a state
that has barely one tenth of the sum Can
be imagined.
Ohio, hard as the times seem, and scarce
as money is among us, has circulation of
dollars to each individual, and yet, during
a residence of eight years in the state, we
have never known the difficulties of obtain
ing money SO great as they are at present.

There was never more glarlng exem-
plifcation of the tenacity with which Lo-
cofocosm clings even to the vain shadow of
power, after the substance has departed
than that lately exhibited by the late COVER
nor of Michigan, in sending an extra-official
and uncalled for message to the legislature
We can imagine no possible motive for such
an act, except the forlorn hope of making
political capital out Of comparison between
The literary merits of the productions of the
real and the spurious governor. And this
suspicion is strengthened by the fact that
the Locofoco presses throughout the state
are busily engaged in drawing such par
allel; and, that Gov. Mason was allowed
free access to the archives Of the state,
while Gov. Woodbridge was not permitted
to examine them. If there ever was a
state ruled by scoundrclism, from Its very
birth, that state is Michigan.
