lister 10 England in 1926 he has, il is true, whetf
induced by interest or principle II Is not now
necessary 10 enquire, acted with the Democratic
party, VITA commendable consistency. For this
consistency OF action with, and support Of the
party Mr.. Van Buren, has received from the de-
mocfacy Of the STATE Of New York andthe Union
the Office Of U. s. Senator, Secretary Of 5 ate,
Minister to England, Vice President, and Presi~

ave intended 10 have made some remarks upon
the evden, desire of the Clay Wings 10 have
Mr.. Van Buren, for their opponent again IN 1871,
founded upon their knowledge Of tho 'mPns.bi-
lily of uniting the whole opposition OF Mr.. Clay
upon him. bu, mus, defer what We have 10 say
upon that topic 10 another day"
We publish the above remarks for their nirn-
sic merit, and for the unanswerable arguments
thew contain against Mr.. Van BJren. Bot we
should add that every object which Is urged
agans, Mr.. Van Durcn. because Of the measures
which he advocated during his Presidential term,
apply with equal force TO Mr.. Calhoun, or any
other of the Loco(oco candidates. All OF them
advocated, and sustained, and would recommend
and sustain If President, every one Of the odous
measures which characterized Nr. Van BIren :
administration. Mr.. Tyler would, perhaps, sup
port them also; but he canno, be trusted, aud
beside is not thought of BY any else than
himself as having the slightest chance for q nom
inatIon by any National Convention. The only
way Of avoiding the errors and bad measures Of
Mr.. Van Buren's administration, is TO elec, Mr..
CLAY.
THE Four ACES Ct MAIDS "A German writer.
NJ e. Saphlr, SAYS maids have four ages. VIZ:
the golden. from lG TO 81; he silver nge, from
II to Is; the plated, from IS to 3d. and the iron
age, from 30 tho end. 10 the golden age
every thing is golden-goden locks, golden
dreams, golden hopes, golden thoughts, &c.
The voice sounds like virgin gold, the heart is
pure gold, and the affections pure gold. The
fact is they have five bars of splendid gold. Nos.
10, Il, Is, 10, and 20; bat, alas! but few Of
them carry them TO the min, of reason 10 have
them coined
When girl is once three times seven years,
their glittering gold is gone Her early youth
tho 30 leuner a IA fOurchette' of nature past
girls OF that age, longer kept like gold
medals 10 morocco boxes, but commence, like
silver, to circulate among the people. The seven
wears from 81 to IS employ ed IN an incessant
upon brutes. who but too frequently initiate
the example of friedrich The Grea and avail, the
assault be hind entertainments. Girls most
interesting at that age. Instead of imta.,ng
the Larks, in soaring high that but few nav
hear tnem they take .heir flight nearer the earth,
like swallows IN ralny weather. In that age
they are the most amabie, and have the best o.
pinion Of men; Of course they are, that ac-
count most easily Gagged.
The plated age is from % 10 81. Gold and
siIv or ara gone, and they resort TO various pro-
cesses of gliding, silverIng and plating. They
less piquant and more piqued. They look
upon men with a considerable mixture of con
tempt and haired. They become again reserve
and prude. II they have affections. they are at
best plated; they may endure, IL Of good work
,nanshp: hn, they have not the value of c,her
gold or silver.
Tho iron age is the universal death Of sensi-
ment. The thirty fifth year is the equator OF
human life, which divides it into the Southern
and Northern hemisphere. On the Northern
there is no Paradise for girls. They write
their farewell letter TO all hopes and wishes
They confirm TO iron necessity, and resign Them
selves TO the iron tooth Of time, awaiting The da Y
when gold, silver and iron will have no sound
and nought but tho sont--ever young md fresh
shall rise from its iron easement. = Phil. Mer>
