vorte of all who are advocating complete
restoration and establishment of the policy
of Washington and the fathers of

feeling among us in Ohio; and for this rea>
son we have neglected to copy oil the ex.
pressions Of public feeling. but have been
content with recording those of Congress.

DANIEL BOONE.--The Louisville Ad
dertser says:-"Some weeks since, ar
acquaintance of ours made an excursion
through what is known as The Popular Lev.
el, some three miles south Of this city, ia
quest Of woodcocks. Being faiigued and
thirsty, he sat down by the side Of small
spring that dubbed from the roots of a
Beech-and whilst enjoying the shady
refreshment, detected at some 80 feet dis
rant from his seat, the dim outline Of letters
on Beech tree, barely discernable at the
distance he was from them. Approaching
the tree, and carefully removing The moss
which covered the inscription, he found The
full name of the forester. Daniel Boone,
carved in large and rude characters above
The date TIA. The tree vas some four
feet in circumference--and The letters, after
their trenches were clear of mould, distinct
at the distance Of fifty PAGES. This is the
only memorial Of old Boone we have ever
heard of as exiant in this region, and from
The evidences Of antiquity that surround it,
no doubt can be entertained Of it. being the
genuine work Of the solitary aungraphist."

CLAY IN Pennsylvania.

A Wing meeting was recently held 10
Bedford county. The Bedford Inquirer
says
"The best feeling was manifested at the
meeting on Monday. The enthusiastic out
break at the mention of Mr.. Clay's name,
shows how deep and abiding is the deter>
mination Of the people to carry out the
purely American principle in the advocacy
Of which he is distinguished, and give effi-
cheney to the glorious victory Of lS4O by a
still more brilliant achievement in IA We
are proud ola demonstration so noble,
founded as it is in the finest feelings of the
human breast--grati,ude for the services of
a lorg tried servant, and sympathy fol the
sufferings of the toiling millions:-Itis an
earnest of what old Bedford will do when
the time for action arrives"

MANS IMIoRTALITY.--I cannot believe
that earth is mans abiding place 1t cans
not be tina. our life is cast up by The ocean
of eternity to float moment upon its waves
and sink into its nothngness! Else why is
it that the glorious aspirations, which leap
like angels from the temple Of our heart,
are forever wandering about unsa'isfied ?
Why is it that the rainbow and the cloud
come over US with beauty that is not Of
earth, and then pass fl, and leave US to
muse upon their faded loneliness? Why
is il that the stars who hold their festivals
around the midnight throne, are set above
the grasp of our limited faculties, for ever
knocking us with unapproachab'e glory.
And finally, WHY'S it that the bright forms
of human beauty are presented to our view
and then taken from US, leaving the thou
sand streams Of our affections to flow back
in Alpine torrents upon our hearts! We
are born for higher destiny than that of
earth. There is realm where raInbows
never fade, where the stars will be out be-
fore US like islets that slumber on the ocean
and where being, TINT pass before us like
shadows, will stay our presence forever.-

FORTY YEARS HENCE.

A PARTON Of our readers may ration ally

world in 1883.
Judging of the future by the past, we
shall in thu, period see added to the Amer>
can Union, ten new States, and settlements
will extend to the Rocky mountains, within
II considerable population in Oregon. This
vast extent of country will be cultivated by
a population of ninety millions Of free, in
teIIigent people-such nation of men and
women as The Sun has never shone upon.
The city of New York will have popu-
laion Of more than one million, aud lines of
packets, propelled by machinery so much
improved, 'ha. the passage to England will
be made 10 four or FIVE days, starting every
day, and the fare not exceeding twenty dol
larry.
With all this immense population on the
sea board, the mos popnIous and powerful
portion of the Union will be the valley Of
the Mississippi, to some city of which the
Gov eminent will be RENE we'd, while the
present national buildings at Washington,
will be uscd as great National University.
Our trade with The whole world will
have increased in population, and about this
lime. The China trade, having become of
immense importance, through the diploma

Gushing, will he carried on by immense

ALABAMA CorToN.--The Montgomery
Advertiser Of the S'h inst: says.
The cotton crop of this year has had
much to contend against. First the late
spring, next the heavy rains, and now, we
understand, that The worm is beginning to
be very destructive, particularly 10 the
prairie lands. Unless tho fall season 10
unusually late. we fear that this year's crop
will fall short Of an average one.
