There is a rumor travelling about, that Mr..
Van Buren, is opposed to annexation. We do not
discover such opposition in his letter. He says !,
after arguing that the power given by the Consti-
tuition to annex foreign territory, should be 8. libe-
rally construed that annexation is not yet expo
dent, on the ground that Mexico has not acknow-
ledged the independence Of Texas. But we have
learned that the Mexican Minister is not opposed to
the annexation; but rather. would willingly pur-
chase perma lent alliance with the United States
and peace with Texas, by acknowledging her indie
pendence q thing Mexico will be forced to do, mol.
rol., which by doing speedily she can concede ~
otherwise she win be obliged to yield. . S
Texas actually a free State, whether Mexico
regards her 50 or not; she has no power to with.
stand Texan efforts for independence, ard all
foreign civilized powers look upon the flag OF the
!" Lone STAR" as IN independent one.
We do not, therefore, think the ground taken

than the amount charged as the Real Estate Bask

The Madisonian seems determined
TO be entitled TO its penny notwith
standing the eleventh hour accession
to the ranks Of the faithful. Amongs
the embellishments of its columns is the
old fabrication that J. V. McMahan
Esq, President Of the Baltimore Har
rison Convention in 40, has come on
for Polk and Dallas. Most people
would be satisfied with getting one lie
into asentence of six lines, but John
Jones' vaulting ambition is not 10 be ap,
peased with less than two, one direct,
and the other by implication. He
states the fact first, and then represents
him as Presiden. Of the Wing Con-
vention, inducing the belief that he
was the presiding officer of the one
which nominated Mr. Clay. One part
Of the story is as true as the other.
1t is difficult to conceive a motive for
lying in this instance unless it be from
force Of habi, or to keep his hand in.
The Illinois State Journal calls the
attention of its readers to the fact that
Mr. Preston Of South Carolina, offered
an amendment to the Tariff bill, rails.
ing the duty on cheap wool to 20 per
cent. and that the democratic Senators
all voted for it and the wings against,
with two exceptions. A small quanti-
ty more of type would have told the
whole truth, but it wou Id have inter-
fered with the editors laudible purpose
of deceiving the public. The woods
in question are those costing less than
seven cents the pound and imported
mostly from Asia, Barbary and South
America; they do not come in COMPETE
ton with our home product and are in
in point Of revenue. When
your Illinois wool growers have an
article TO sell at seven cents per pound
and from that downward, the Wings
will take care that you have ample
protection.

The last Iowa Reporter, in serving
up material for Buncombe, announces
that the New York Herald has hung
out the POLK and Dallas flag" 1t is
matter of unusual no.oriety that the
Herald has never had since its COM
mencement the name of any Presiden-
tiaI candidate a. the head Of its columns
and has not now; of he truth Of this
statement we have no doubt the editor
has as good evidence as any one else.
If he will take the trouble to read some
Of that papers late editorials he will
find rather strong opinion expressed
that Mr. Clay has the best Of the fight,
which is quite at variance with the un'
measured Dragging Of the Polk and
Dallas organs. We are also apprised
by the same print that the Hon. N. p
Talmadge, has "come ont for Polk
and Dallas" This gentleman was
appointed Governor of Wisconsin and
confirmed by the Senate at the last
session. He is several removes from
being a fool, as he would be if he put
himself into the category where
this editor has placed him. He is
certain to be continued in Office if the
loco ticket prevails under the provi-
sions of the Polk and Tyler coalition,
without volunteering an indiscreet zeal
in behalf of The Free Trade and Texas
candidate which would cost him his
present commission when Mr. Clay
comes into the chair. We think Mr.
Talmadge understands this and will
govern himself accordingly.

A PSALM OF LIFE.

A PSALM OF LIFE.
What the heart Of the Young Man said t
TIE Psaln,ist.
PROFESSOR LoNGFELLow.
Tell me not in nournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream:
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.
Life is real. Life is earnest.
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken Of the soul.
Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
But to act that each to. morrow
Find US further than to-day
Art is long. and time is feeting,
And;our hearts, though stout and brave,
Still, like muffied drums. are beating
Funeral marches to the grave.
In the worlds broad field Of battle,
In the bivouac of Life,
Be not like dumb, driven cattle!
Be hero in the strife.
Trus no future, howe'e r pleasant!
Let the dead Past bury its dead.
Act,-act in the living Present!
Heart within, and God o'cr head!
Lives OF great men oil remind US
We can make our lives sublime.
And departing, leave behind Us
Footsteps on the sands Of time.
I Footsteps. that perhaps another.
Sailing Ger life's solemn main.
forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.
Let us, then, be up and doing, e
With a heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing.
Learn to labor and to wait.

We are gra.i6ed that our articles
concerning our city, it's Improvements,
its increase and its business prospects
have met with general appreciation from
our citizens. We are also pleased to
observe that several of our contempo-
raries of the press have been attracted
by our notices. some copying them
entire into their journals and others
referring to them generally. True,
one or two have gro,oled because we
were praising las they say Burlington,
and no wonder, they see that our town
is going ahead Of our sister-cities and
they therefore complain at our speak
ing Of our rapid increase and prosperi-
ty. Something like sour grapes to
them.
