WE MISS THEE.

memorial Of .qndrew r. Henderson, Esq, late {
Baltimore. 9fectionatcly inscribed to his bereart
family.
We miss thee, when the morning comes,
With joyous beam to cheer
The happy ola thousand homes,
But not to gladden. here.
Around the hearth, without word,
: We wait thy welcome tread;
Nor deem, till feelings depths are stirred,
That thou art with the dead.
We mics thee, when for praise and prayer,
AT early dawn we meet;
And find, alas! thou art not there,
To fill thy vacant seat.
Thou art not there, the strain to lead,
OF the home-alter's praise;
And now with hearts that burn and bleed,
The solemn notes we raise.
We miss thee, when in twilight's calm,
We look upon the fields,--
A blooming mid the airs ofbalm
The mellow season yields
The flowers are blushing forth in pride,
To crown the carly year;
IT'S Spring on all the world beside,
But Winter,-Winter here.
We miss thee, in the courts Of God,
And now we tread alone
The holy asles so often trod
With thee,--dear santed ono.
We list the eloquence that fell
On thy delighted ear;
And would be happy in its swell,
Ifthou vert only near.
We miss thee, at the altar-sido,
Where ioyfully we sought
The blessing of the Crucifed,
For us so dearly bought.
We touch the sacred emblems still,
But thy pure soul hath flown,
Where it may ever drink its fill,
With Jesus near his throne.
SNemiss thee, miss thee every where,
And miss thee every hour;
In speeches. grief thy loss we share.
Nor would we ask the power
To stay the tide of gushing wo,
That rises from the soul;
Wen bear it while we live below,
Though bitterly it roll.
We miss thce;-but amid the gloom,
Hope cheers our smitten throng;
IL beams like sunlight from thy tomb,
We may not miss thee long.
Like thine, our heads beneath the sod,
Deaths shadows soon must wear;
And when we reach the land of God,
We will not miss thee there.

which took place be-

Mr.. Thomas, and
jyourproceedings be-
ling the cause of our
conversation, and Of
liciaiing as y'r friend
| deem it nothing but
proper that you
should know the
whole circumstances
and | shall do so.
In justice to myself
| shall pursure a dif-
ferent course in re-
gard to this affair.
You have taken a
different course 10
obtain satisfaction
from what ! had u
right to expect.
Y on brought my
name before the pub
lie in connexion with
a ridiculous affair,
Iyou will of course
allow me to get out

In answer to the question, "Who did
you allude top have to say, 10 any,
one or many, Gust as it may be- who
have, or may take o4fence-s'whom the

one object and one aim, one enemy and
one feeling of hostility as yet, in this
business, but if any man chooses to es-
pouse mine cnemy's quarrel, then shall /
also feel hostility TO him.
No man of refined and true gentleman
ly feeling, can degrade hmselrand human
nature, by using Cor attempting to use) q
The very attempt lowers the assailant
more than the assailed-and further it
shows malice--it shows that the assai-
liant wishes to attack the character of the
assailed--to injure him forever. Such an
assault, evidently from such motives can
never be forgiven, and the man who can
thus act (no matter what his accidental
position may be in society," is not gen.
lleman. thus speak the honest senti-
| ments Of my heart, fearless of conscqaen-
| ces, conscious rectitude will support me,
all honorable men will approve, and |
| seek not the friendship of such as do not.
In conclusion, / wish to be distinctly
understood that if any person except one,
chooses to be insulted, by this article, and
attempts to fasten.a quarrel on me, that
| shall decline all meetings with such per-
sons, until have obtained satisfaction Of

Tho late sad calamity OF board the steamboat
Medora, in Baltimore, fell heavily upon our
Church in that city. Among several Of its MEM
bers who were victims, two--John c. Moaeand
Andrew +. Henderson, Esqrs,--were valuable
members Of society. The latter was one of the
best of men, and his loss is most severely felt.
We had known and esteemed him for many
years, and can testify to his worth, which can
never be forgotten by any who enjoyed the priv
ilcge of his friendship. He died as no lived "a
Christian. We are happy to learn from the COR
respondent to whom we are indebted for the sub
joined poetical tribute to his memory, that "Iiis
death was mos trumphant:--sensible to the last,
he rejoiced in the prospect ola glorious immor-
tally, and died without struggle" En-. BAN.

Meetings haye been held throughout the cour-

Presidency, and expressed their determination to
exert themselves to effect his nomination and
election. They arc in advance of us down the
Shore, they have held meetings in his behalf
there, and the wings of Cecil who are among the
irmcst of Mr.. Clay's friends, should make a
movement in his iavor. We would be glad to
hear from our friends in other portions Of the
