POETRY.
THE COURSE OF TIME.

nslated from beautiful Spanish poem by Maurique, on
saith Of his father, quoted in the Edinburgh Review.
Oh let the soul Its slumber break,
Arouse it's senses, and awake,
To see how soon
Life, with its gories, gdes away,
And the stern footsteps Of decay
Come stealing on.
How pleasure, like the passing wind,
Blows by, md leaves nought behind
But grief at last
How still our present happiness
Seems TO the wnywnrd fancy, less
Than what is past
And, while we eye the rolling tide,
Down which our flying minutes glide
Let us the present hour employ,
And deem each future dream Of Joy
Already past.
Let no vain hopes deceive the mind
No happier let us hope TO find
Tomorrow than to-day.
Our gilded dreams of yore were bright;
Like them the present shall delight,
Like them decay.
Our lives like lasting streams must be,
That into one 81 osng ;, g1,is sea
Der king and kingdom, and throne,
The sea Of death whose waves roll on,
And swallow oil.
Alike the rivers ordly tide,
Alike the humble riy'lots glide,
To that sad wave:
Death levels property and pride,
And rich and poor sleep side by side
Within the grave.
Our birth is but a starting place;
Life is the running of the race,
And death the goal;
There all our steps at last are brought;
That path alone, Of all unsought,
IL found Of all.
Long ere the damps of death blight,
The cheeks pure glow of red and white
Hath pass'd away;
Youth smiled and all was heavenly fair;
Age came and laid his finger there
And where they'
Where ia tho strength that mock'd decay,
The step that so light and gay,
The hearts blthe toner
The strength is gone, the step 10 slow,
And Joy grows WEAKNESS and wO,
When age comes on.
Say then, how poor and little worth
Are all those gittering toys Of earth
That lure us here
Dreams of seep that death must break,
Alas before il bids us wake,
Ye disappear.

THE EXCHEQUER BILL.

The decided and seemingly unqualified opposition
of Senator Huntington Of this State to the Exchequer
Bill, and that too mere question of reference,
has occasoned much surprise and regre; the part of
our political friends who have been hoping-anxious
ly hopng-that the suggestions Of the President and
his able cabinet would be acted upon in such man
would afford the people safe and convenient
currency, and restore confidence both among the bu
siness of the country and those who at present
WELD its political power. The message of the Pres
dent is popular among the people especially the Wing
portion of them-and they--the mass of them if not
the whole of tsem disappointed that the spirit Of
that message not reciprocated by all OF the majority
in Congress have to believe 1t isby part
and we are happy to hear stated that all or near
ly all ofthe Connecticut members of the House
much disposed to adopt the recommendations of the
President after the proper guards and which
pose, have been adopted. The people do not believe
every part of his plan-on the contrary the impress
sion is strong that the President disposed concede
much for final settlement of theIquestlonin short
that he is willing that his plan should I've moulded in
to such form as the "wisdom and patriotism Of Con-
gress may devise-for he expressly declares that he
did not submit it "in any overweening confidence in
the suiiciency of his own Judgment"
Now can it be said that he has been met in this
spirit that his suggestions have been fairly and
courteousy considered We think not, and We
by by means singular IN our opinion. We do
not however yet despair of satisfactory settlement
of this vexed question, at the present session of
Congress We believe public opinion will yet reach
Congress in such manner as will change entirely
the present appearance ofthings there Nep Hapen

MODERN HlsroRy.- Mr.. William Smyth, the pro-
fessor of history in Cambridge College, England, has
published two volumes of lectures modern his
tory from the Eruption of the northern nations to the
close of the American revolution" These volumes
have been republished at Cambridge, Mass, by John
Owen, from the second London edition, together with
a preface and a list Of books on American history
by Mr. Jared Sparks professor of history in Harvard
University. As chart to guide the student Of his
tory to the most profitable course of reading, the
work is valuable, and as a condensed and philosoph-
cal review Of modern history il is highly instructive
The author is evidently man of extensive reading
and research of strong discriminating and cr
teal acumen, and of mild and rational philosophy
OF that part of the work which treats of this couI
try, Mr. Sparks says, I" 1t would be difficult to find
any treatise the American Revolution comprised
within the compass of his six lectures from which
so much can be learned, or SO accurate an estimate
of the merits Of both sides Of the question can be
formed" For the manner in which many other of
the great epochs Of history treated, similar
compliment is justly due. Mr.. Smyth has conferred
great benefit upon the student, well as the gene
raj reader Of modern history.

TUE CoRN Law CALAMIrIEs. -Eyery day brings
forth some fresh evidence of the working Of the Corn
laws, in the decline Of manufactures, and TIE cruel
disrrsses Of the laboung classes AT late free trade
Sheffield meeting Mr.. w. lbbo'son made this start
ling statement Five-eghths Of the manufactures
OF Sheffield 20 to the American market all have felt
the prosraon Of that market, which has not
been of slight duration, but of five years standing.
What is the reason Of all this Because the Ameri-
cans have had nothing to give in exchange for our
goods (Hear, hear.) America has had an album
dance OF what our people are dying for-not literally
dyingbut wasting away for want of adequatc support
(Cheers.) Their. is an amount of suffering in Shelf
field of which the people have adequate idea
il we were to adopt the plan which has beer adopt
ed in Leeds, we should discover amount of power
ty, and such poverty little think Of America
has abundance Of corn and we have abundance of
labor. What is the state of the various trades this
town. The scissors trade is nearly annhiated the
Germans have done this. clear, hear) The axe
trade-a trade of great Importance in America--has
nearly entirely left this town. America makes as many
in three months "a we do in twelve which has been
cluled owing To the great duty In the mill
saw we are entirely cut out. Circular saw ditto,
(Hear, hear.) True am sending steel to America
to cut myself out, but what can do 7 ! am obliged
to do something, and AM even glad 10 send the very
article away which ough, 10 be manufactured into
saws by myself fully anticipate that the day is not
far distant when sha! he entirely cut out in table
knIves-anolher article, TO manufacture " hch the
Americans likely TO take away our steel We
have alternative but to let il 90 for if we do not
manufacture steel and sell il to them they will manu-
factuc it for themselves The speaker concluded by
proposing The following resolution That il is an I'M
sacred principle to attempt by legislative interference
