giving the particulars of the phenomena attending the

A CHANGE-A PALPABLE CHANGE.
We are glad TO see the Globe coming to lis
senses. The last number contained an article
approving the appointment of Governor VIII
KINs TO the War Department, and endorsing his
Democracy.
That il has changed for the better, (and
when II changes for the better, other changes
may be looked for,) the following extracts, COL
lated by the New Hampshire Gazette, will
render sufficiently convincing:
twas said ono Democrat could honorably take
Office under Mr.. Tyler The Globe, however, af-
forwards qualified this by saying There is ia Office
OUT OF TIE GARNET ,phicA may not our opinion BE-
properly received at the hands of Nh Tier by honest De-
Gratis" Bat as to Cabinet Offices the Globe stuck
to il with logged pernacity that no honorable DEM
ocrat could accept them. Hear him.
"The attitude of those who, protesting sentiments
utterly adverse to those which brought Mr. Tyler in
to ofhce, yet fdke GARNET places 10 support him. is 10
folly different from that Of those ,cho take INFERIOR sta
hons, not cond ntiai and not assocating them ,ci him
The members Of administration are bound in or
binary circumstances, not merely 10 perform the ordinary
drtdgry o. their respective departments but TO SUPPORT
THE HEAD OF THE ADMISIsTRATIoN.n
"ln the contests waged against the President by
those who disapprove of his administration the asso-
e'ote councillors Of has Cobne are bound 10 support him
in the main, however they may differ from him pri-
vately about particulars As party men, THEY MUST
BE or HIS PARTY because 10 be in hi, Cabinet and of
another party Is 10 array the political duties of the officer
in direct hostility TO his political duties as man upper
tanning 10 the party opposed 10 the President he mem
Der of the Cabinet, then, who undertakes to WELD
the political authority of the Executive under him,
MUST DO 1T FOR HIN OR HE BETRAYs HIM lie must be
Tyler man as long as MIR. Tyler ,eis up for anything
o. be false to ts engagement implied in taking sta
ton in his councils"
"What democrat cfhones pr nciples, serai feelings,
and just pride Of chaf~citr could think Of going into
Cabinet Nth such men as Sps~eer, Porter, and Wick
life What man Of responsibility of any party
would venture to take the responsibility Of an adm
nistrstion its measures and appointments and trusts,
with such a head as Mr.. Tyler above him, and such
Instruments below himr ~

LINES BY THE AUTHOR OF "LACoN."

1.-The following unpublished lines by the late au
thor Of " Lacon,'' the Rev. c. c. Cotton, were writ
ten q few days before his death at Fontsinbleau
Hhther he had retired during illness, the ei
iects OF which were supposed to have led to his sell
destruction by shooting himself with pistol 49,
How long shall mans imprison'd spirit grosn,; !.
fwixt doubt of Heaven, and deep disgust Of earth
When all worth knowing never can be known, ,a y
And all that can be known, alas! is nothing worth
Untaught by saint by cynic, or by sage,
And all the spoils Of limo that load the shelves,
We do not quit-but change our joys in age,
Joys framed to stide thought and lead US from our
selves.
The drug-tbe cord-the steel-the flood the fame
Turmoil of action-tedum of rest
And lust Of change-though for the worse-proclain
How dull lifes banquet u.s. how i'll at ease the guest
known were the bill Of fare before we taste,
Who would not spurn the banquet and the boardl
Prefer the eternal but oblivious fast,
To life's fral fretted thread, and deaths suspended
swords
lie that the topmost stone Of Babel plnnn'd-
And he that braved the craters boiling bed
Did these clearer, closer view command, a
or Heaven or He'll, we ask-than the blind herd
they led'
Or he that in Valdano did prolong
The Nght-her rich star-studded page 10 read
Could he point out, midst all that brilliant throng,
His ixd and final home-from Aeshly thraldon
freed'
Minds that have scann'd Creations vast domain,
And secrets solv'd till then to sages seal'd,
Whilst nature ownd their intellectual reign
Extlnct-have nothing known, or nothing have
reveal'd.
Devouring Grave! we might the less deplore
Tn extnguish'd lights that in thy darkness dwell,
Woud'st thou from that lost zodiac one restore
That might tn enigma solve--and doubt mans
tyrant, quell
To live in darkness--in despair to die
Is this, indeed, the boon to mortals giveni
Is there no port-no rock nor refuge nigh?
There ito those who fix their anchor hope in
Heaven
Turn then, 0 man, and cast all else aside
Direct thy wandering thoughts to things above;
Low at the Cross bow down-in that confide
Till doubt be lost in falkland bliss secured in
