The following pretty song, from the la
lumber Of the knickerbockcr, shows too mue
mastery in the Scotch dialect to have bee
written by any but Scotchman born:
SONG.
When spring arrayed in flowers, Mary,
Danced with the leafy trees;
When larks sang to the sun, Mary,
And hummed the wandering bees
Then first we met and loved, Mary,
By Grieto's loupin' linn,
And blither was thy voice, Mary,
Than Linties i the whin.
Now autumn winds blaw cauld, Mary,
Amang the withered baughs;
And a the bonny flowers, Mary,
Are faded frae the knowes;
But still thy loves unchanged, Mary
Nae chilly autumn there,
And sweet thy smile, as spring Mary,
Thy sonsie face as fair.
The early lark nae mair, Mary,
Thrills on his soaring way;
flushed is the Lintie's sang, Mary,
Througha a the shortening day;
But still thy voice hear, Mary,
Like melody divine;
Nae tumn in thy heart, Mary,
Thou'rt truly, only mine.

10 An Overwhelming Scarcity.
Whatever becomes scarce proportiona.
bly, becomes precious. We can now as.
sure our readers that not single edito,
is left in Indianapolis but the Junior OF
the Democrat. True we feel lonesome.
Not single wing or democratic editor
is left in this city but ourself, yet we
have the consolation to know that every
thing valuable is scarce. Gold is scarce,
diamonds are scarce, jewels are scarce,
white crows and white blackbirds are
scarce, and we are scarce. Indeed
since last week we have risen in our es-
tima.ion just one hundred per cent. We
will try, however, and not get proud
about it. The only single editor Of In
dianapolis Who would not envy the
name! We obtained immortality by tell
ing Chapman to crow and we now
hope to become innaortaler by being
alone,-the last of the Mohigans. Since
our dearly beloved, little, red-headed
brother of the Journal has left US, we
feel s. solitary and alone"

day, says:
We have been surprised a. the extent
Of change in favor of a restoration of a
bank of the United States. Nor is the
change by any means confined to the
Wing party. 1t pervades both parties
1t reaches all classes, those more and
those less intelligent. The ruinous state
of the currency, the long years of suffer
ing under Jackson and Van Buren, exper-
imenting ,inkering, the growing convic-
tons that uniform and stable currency
can alone be supplied by national bank,
the utter hopelessness of specie curren-
cy, the odium into which many of the
State banks have fallen, and the persua-
sion that many Of them are rotten and
ought 10 be purged off by national bank,
the recollections Of ancient prosperity,
when one existed; all these arguments, so
numerous, have had, and canno, but far
ther have. immense influence over the
public mind. We feel them, and feel
them deeply, and few would be found 10
resist them, but for The Constitutional Off.

terrain it, 10 be conclusive; bnt how long
