These with the vacancies above, make II vacancies
to be supplied in the Of the next year.
OF the fsur present vacancies, one in Virginia and
two in North Carolina will be filed with Harrison
1t is doubtful what the result will be in Della
ware, The democrats carried the State last year,
by very small majority. The election takes place
on the 10Th Of November, and as the Legislature
will have to,ehoose two Senators, the contest will
be very short one. II is not at all improbable, that
the political complexion ri the Senate will depend
upon Delaware. II the Wings carry the State, the
the Senate ill stand next winter, y Van Buren, and
- Harrison men. or the vacancies caused by the
exp ration Of terms Harrison will. doubt, gain 1
in Virginia, vice Mr. Roane- 4 in Louisiana, vice
Mr. Nicholas-I in Michigan, vice Mr.. Norvell,
and m New Jersey, vice Mr.. Wsli-the Leg.la-
lures Of these States being nov Harrison. This
make. gain Of 4, aud if the wings whose terms ex-
pire, Should all be reelected, the Senate would be
equally divided, giving Delaware TO Mr.. Van Buren,.
Ifthe Wings carry that state, then the Senate
would stand Harrison 2s-van Buren, "a. The de-
mocrats will probably gain in the place Of Mr..
Rugglcs Of Maine, and the Wings have a fair chance
Of making il up in Georgia In view Of these facts,
arrive at the conclusion, that the Wings IL they
the Senate, on the commencement Of the next Pres-
dental term. 1.-THE democrats carry Delaware, the
Pa,ties will be very nearly balanced.
DEMOCRATIC CorvENrIov-The Democrats hold
State Convention at Syracuse tomorrow. IL is
understood that the candidate FOR Governor is not
fully determined upon. The general expectation
has been that William G. Bcack, late Canal Com
missioner, woaId be selected, but the friends Of Gen.
Ward think him more available. Mr.. Wright ia
spoken Of in certain qaarters, and there will pro-
baby be figuring at the Convention before the

The country is healthy; the politicians of both

A disconsoIate Peri stood one morn at the gate
@of Eden suing for admission. 1t was told the en-
trance could only be obtained in one way, and that
was to traverse the earth and procure a gem, the
richest it contained, and present it to the keeper
OF the celestial gate, which, if approved, would be
passport to the world of spirits. The Peri ac-
cep.ed the proposal, and went in search of that
most valuable of all earths riches. 1t explored
land and sea from pole to pole, and finally found
lump of pure and solid gold. This it deemed most
priceless it in aerial fingers and struck its
pinions for the celestial world. The gold was re-
f fused and the Peri despatched to seek another gem
more priceless still. 1t roamed through groves and
Aowers,b the deep oceans shore, the wild noun
tains brow and the silver lstream-went to the
battle field and caught the last drop OF blood which
streamed from the young warriors heart, as he
sunk in death in the cause of liberty. With that
and other gems it struck its pnions once more for
the abode of happiness, but refused at the gate
its offering being unworthy. A third time the Peri
sought to find the richest gem. It, after many days

The lips that lov'd the truth
The single eye whose glance sublime
Look'd to eternity, through time }"
Aye, thou vert righteous Man Of God,
How straight the paths thy feet have trod.
An holy atmosphere seem'd cast
Around thy being TO the last;
Twas like an halo DER thee thrown
Who ne'er hath markd it, ne'er hath known :
With Truth thou did such GOODNESS blend,
We claim d thee by the title FRIEND,
For never did our sorrows rise
That then thy prayer pierc'd not the skies
And in our joys, what eye did beam
With more of rapture in its CLEAN
VICE fed thy presence could it bear
Thy glance and read the meaning there
Yet when the hour Of death drew nigh,
The wretch, without thee, would not die,
But pour'd within thy ist'ning
His tale of guilt, remorse and fear;
Yet chung in stern despair to thee,
Thou bad Est him look to Calvary;
How shook thy manly form with grief,
Most blest if Heav'n vouchsafd relief.
The weak and falterng sought thy side
Thou ddst their fainting footsteps guide:
And thou would'st lead so gently back
The wand'rer to lfes hidden track,
And knelt with pleadings at tho throne,
Meekly, as it were gnilt thine own.
Till the rebellious heart would yield,
And lions wounds were prob'd and heal'd.

From which he ne'er sha II wake and weep.
He sleeps; but in yon glorious sky
The spirit lifts arapturd eye.
List Heard ye that exulting strain,
Which, dying, he essay in vain'
Now rising with the heavily choir,
And glowing with an angels fire.
He will not faint amid the song
The note is high, sublime and strong.
And who are those who with him bow?

Whom through this wilderness he led,
And with the hidden mama fed.
He beeds them not.--his Saviour nigh,
With gracious smile, hath ix'd his eye.

by HAwsER MARTINGALE.
TuNn-''Ye sons IF ColumJia."
The good ship Of state is now driven ashore,
The thunder bowls round us, and dark tempests
lower;
The tide is fast rlslng--und breaks in the Bay
And the hearts of the boldest filled with dsmay
She will founder, unless, with true patriot zeal,
We get rid of The luJber who stands at tire Wheel
And take n ns,o PILOT, whose heart is true blue
And such we shall find in OLD TIPPECANOE.
Old "'TIP'' is a hero, brave, honest, and true,
Who deserves the esteem of the JACKETS OF BLUE.
His bosom, so free from intrigue, guile, or art,
Is the shrine OF that treasure, PATRloT's heart.
Besides if we turn his log, we shall find
film a foe to oppression-n friend to mankind.
What say ye then, Salors!-yo JACKETS OF BLUE,
Shall we choose as our Pilot, OLD TIPPECA-

That in State navigation he's second to none.
His soul with tho true "live-oalt grit is mbued I!
He is worthy to stand where WAsuINGToN stood
Then give him the tMer-when he steps on deck,
His frmness and wisdom will save us froE wreck
Then summon him, tars! Shout, JACKETS BLUE
"Oh, haste to our rescue, OLD TlPPECANOE!"
Had he lived in country where merit is known,
And rewarded by pensions and praise, or throne.
Wealth, power and fame would have been his just
need,
And an humble clog hut" had ne 'er sheltered his
head.
But his nature is NoBLEhs north stands fessed
