THE RAINBO w.

sometimes have thought in my loneest hours,
That lie on nv heart like the dew on the flowers,
of a rambe took bright afternoon,
When my heart whs light as blossom IN June
The green earth moist with the late faioh showers
The breeze futtered down and blew open the flowers,
While single white cloud to its haven of rest,
On the white wing of Peace, hoatod oil IN tho west
As threw back my tressos catch the cool breeze,
That scater'd the ran-dTops and dimpled the seas
Far up the blue sky fair rainbow unfolrd
its soft-tintod pinions of purple aud gold
Twas born in a moment yet quick as us brth,
II had stretched to the uttermost ends oil the EARN
And, fair angel, 1t hoated all free,
With wing on the earth, and wing on the sea-
How calm was the ocean how gentle the SWELL
Like womau's soft bosom ii rose and 1t fell,
While its light sparkling waves stealing laughngy oer,
When thew saw the fair rainbow kncl down the shore
No sweet hymn assembled, no murmur ofproyer,
Yet felt that the spirit Of worship was there,
And bent my young head in devotion and love,
Meath the form of the angel that foated above
How wide was the sweep of its beautiful wings
How beundless its circle, how radiant its wings
If looked on the sky, 'twas suspended in air
IT, looked on the ocean tne alnoo NS wbs WIS., ne''
As the thoughts of the rainbow that crclod my soul
Like the wing of the Deity, calmly unfurled,
II bent from the cloud and encircled the world
There are moments think, when the spirit receives
Whole volumes Of thought on its unwritten leaves,
When the folds of the heart in a moment unclose
Like the innermost leaves from the heart OF q rose
And thus when the rainbow had passed from the sky,
The thoughts it awoke too deep to pass by;
II left my full soul like the wing OF u dove,
All hutterng with pleasure and hutterng with love-
know that each moment of rapture or pain
But shorens the links in liies mystical chains
know that my form, like the bow from the wave,
Must pass from the earth and lie cold in the grave;
Yet oh when deaths shadows my bosom encoud,
When shrink from the thought Of the coffin and shoud
May Hope, like the rainbow, my spirit unfold
In her beautiful pinons of purple and gold

American an Administration paper, OF 1859, in
which it is proved HAT General Jackson's election

General Jackson owes his election to the victory
OF New Orleans that victory depended on the eX-
isence of the War that War was declared in the
National Senate 10y majority oil one. jeremiah
b. Howell, member from Rhode Island, voted
for the war. Had his competitor, james Burrill,
occupied his seat he would have voted against The
war. Mr.. Howell was elected by the casting vote
OF the presiding officer OF the Rhode Island Leg
isature. The tie was accustomed by the absence
OF member belonging TO the political party Of
Burr. lie was prevailed upon to absent him
sell through the influence of an individual al var-
ance with Burril on account OF a law suit respect
ing the depredaions OF hog. in which suit Mr..
Burfill was the prosecuting attorney Had il not

rel, Mr. Burrill would have been elected, the war

ais with their occupation, places of business, res
licences, &c The second gives the names of all

complete as the best skill and the most unwearied
industry can possibly render it. 1t is printed with
