Nicholas Biddie's >Letter.-The letter Of tho
defunct financial emperor, Nicholas, is creating
qultea stir among the editorial fraternity. Why
so much Importance should be given to this last Of
the vagaries Of this gentleman, passe,h our un-
derstanding. Whatever may be the opinion Of
any one upon the constitutional or legal question
involved, we cannot suppose any body simple
enough to believe that any foreign government is
likely 10 engage in lawsuit in any of our courts
on a question Of the mere payment Of debts to-
some of its ci1izens-the idsa seems to us so
very absurd that are surprised TO hear it ser-
ousy agitatcd. AS the matter is being discussed.
we wond like some of the dispu,anls TO give us
their opinion of the course that would or might be
pursued after the Stale of Pennsylvania was once
brought into court, judgment obtained, execution
gra ned and the railroads and canals all sold TO
the foreign plaintiff to any other body polite,
corporate or private. What would be their
rights, properties aud privileges under that sale!
Would that foreign government have the same
power over their works as Pennsy wanna now has,.
the full entire, and exclusive right 10 occupy them
as they please, and to run upon them what they
please, and charge what they please toll? Or
would the Legislature or Slate authority over.
them cease or remain tho Same now.-Penn-

g her sleep! as the breast of the ocean.
70 the sun is reclining upon its still wave:
eams not OF life, nor its stormy commotion,
the surges of trouble recede from her grave!
70 her sleep! as the winds that are sighing
r last faintest echo amid the green trees;
xmur can reach her-unconsciously living,
heeds not the tempest, she hears not the breeze.
her sleep! as the flower that closes "
esutiful petal in nights chilling air
folded her shroud, too, and sweetlv re,oses-

found the affection denied to her here
2 her sleep! may the breathing of slander
hade not the pillow bedew d with our tears,

A Lore LeAer.-The following sweet morcenu,
which originally appeared in the New York Un-
ion, is reported to have been picked up in tho
Park. We insert It as mode worthy the imita-
ton of the love-5ick swain, whose situation may be
such to compel him to conduct his courtship in
wrtting:-
"Dear Srect-Oh, my love Of loves, clarified
honey and oil of citrons, white loaf sugar Of my
hopes, and molasses of my expectations! you have
been absent from me three whole days! The
sun is dark a, mid-day-the moon and stars arc
black when thou art absent. Thy step is the mu-
sic of the spheres; and the wind of thy gown when
you pass by, is zephyr from the garden of par
adise in the time Of carly Aowers 1 kissed you
when wo las, met, and my whole frame was filled
with sweetness! one Of your curls touched mo on
the nose, and that organ was transmitted into loaf
sugar! Oh spice of spices, garden of de!ights!
send me lock of your hair, send me any thing
that your blessed finger hath touched, and [ will
go raving mad with ecstacy! One look from thy
bright eyes would transport me incontinently in
to the third heavens! Your lips are red roses
gathered from Eden by the hand of Gabriel! Your
words are molten pearl dropping from your mouth!
My heart blazes at the thought of thoc! Ny
brain is an everlasting fire! The blood burns
and scorches my veins and vtals as it passes
through them! Oh come, most delightful of de-
lights, and breathe upon with your seraphc
breath! When you do come, be sure and bring
that two shillings which you borrowed of me, as |
want to buy some tobacco! A. T."

Take six pounds of sugar to ono peck (or ls
pounds) Of the fruit. Scald and remove the skin
of the fruit in the usual way. Cook them over
fire, their own juice being sufficient without tho
addition of water, until the sugar penetrates and
they are clarified. They are then taken out,
spread on dishes, fattened and dried in tho sun.
A small quantity of the syrup should be occasion
ally sprinked over them whilst drying; after
which. pack them down in boxes, treating each
layer with powdered sugar. The syrup is after
wards concentrated and bottled for use. They
keep well from year to year and retain surprising.
ly their flavor, which is nearly that of tho best
quality Of fresh fgs The pear shaped or single
tomatoes answer the purpose best. Ordinary y
brown sugar may be used, a large portion of which
is retained in the syrup.
