THE BRIDAL EVE.

to indulge in the feelings she could moi

of her betrothed but a sad presentiment

on her heart.
Slowly she walked towards the wild
fountain whose sparkling waters had wit
messed the first vows of her Edward, with
languid smile she plucked some of the
modest snow drops that boomed but once
since those VOWS were registered, and
twined them in flexible bridal chapet.
She thought of Edwards own words

he the sweet emblem Of thy purity, is not
more free from guile than the passion
VOW The wilhered flower, though for
cotton by him, she had preserved as a
sweet memento Of that blisslul moment,
and now twisted it with the wreath she
was forming of its pure successors. She
had just finished it, and was placing the
snowy chapet among the thick dark
uraids which bound her forehead, when
she was startled by approaching footsteps;
it was her father. "Has he come?'' said
she, eagerly bounding forward, and as
suddenly stopping, her cheeks and tens
pies glowing at her own eagerness
Ny child, said the old man in tremulous
voice, . he has not come. She gazed at
him attentively. His deep grey eyes
cleaned with an unusual expression Of
anger, not untinged with grief. His high
forehead which had once boasted Of great
beauty, now seemed as if some uncom-
mon event had pressed out the wrinkles,
and left it clear and proud as youth
" Tell me, on tell me,n cried the surprls-
ed and agitated girl, "what has happened

ged, had no bottom, from the continued
progress OF our desen,. We are led to
make these reflections, from the present
condition OF the business world around
us. Never has our community groaned
uEaer SO heavy pressure. What makes
our condition the more intolerable, is its
hopelessness. If any prospect of imme-
diate relief existed, then might the evil

Our Legislature have determined on their
course OF policy, and are carrying it for
ward with obstinate severance, not
withstanding the dire consequences that
are sure to follow.
Under such circumstances, there is no
alternative but to submit, and console our
selves with the thought, that if we are
ruined, the deed has been done by The
best oil friends, who were sincerely intent
OH doing us all the good in their power.
The motives Of our legislators cannot be
lmpeached, however, lnjudcious or cul-
pably censurable may be their measures.
Perhaps it is not too late even now, for
them 10 pause, and reflect whether they
have done all that ought to have been
done, to arrest the progress divide sprea-

Ihate the iron hearted,
Whom self alone controls:
Nor envy them the gilded dross,
For which they sell their souls.

So sanctifed and grave;

Like death, shining mark !"

His victim in the dark.

Who will cringe to wealth and power

Will sacrifice his hopes on earth,

E.ocOfoco Consistency.

President Tyler in his veto of the Tariff bill says
ga third obioction remains TO be urged which
would be sufficient. in itself to induce me 10 return
the bill TO the House with my objections. By ami
ting too subjects, incongruous Tariff and DIS
ubution 1t inevitably makes the fate of the one dc
pendent upon that Of the other " Now how does
il happen that these two subjects became united
When did they become united (? Who the
thors and who accountable for this union
This is the history When the distribution bill
was under discussion and before any bill for Tar
if was introduced into Congress, anti Tariff
Southern Senator introduced amendment To the
distribution bill 10 this effect-thnt whenever any
alteration should he made in tho Tariff by which
the duties should exceed 20 per the dis tribn
ton law should THIS motion was opposed
by the Wing members generally, but supported by
the Southern Wings and the whole strength or the
Locofoco members, and prevailed The bill pass
ed in the shape it was and received tho signature
Of President 1'y Ter. Here was The origin Of the
un,on Of hose 'rwo subjects" The authors are
the ant,, Tariff party, and they with the President
at their head are responsible for it.
The distribution clause in the Tariff bill does
no, propose to unite these two subjects. They are
already united, 1t only proposed to repeal that
clause in the distribution which nor uniies the
two subjects, and then leave eaoh the Distribution
net and the Tariff bill, to stand on their own mer~
its. Should the distribution act be repealed at
any time, the Tariff would then be unaffected by
the distribution clause, about which tho Presi-
dent and all the Locos make so much ado, and on
account OF W hich they profess base ali their ap.
position 30 the Tariff Bill.
