"There is no alternative between Protec-
tive Tariff and direct taxation. '--Scioto Gaz.
That is the most absurd proposition that ev-
CT was uttered. A protective tariff. II II means
ANYTHING. means a tariff that will exclude for

Consequently, if the principal was carrid out.
we should have no revenue from imposts, and
direct taxation would be the inevitable resuls.

WHAT Is SOLITUDE,

Not in the shadowy wood, a
Nor in the cras hung glen,
Nor where the echoes
In caves untrod by men;
No. by tho bleak sea shore,
Where barren surgcs break,
Not in the mountain boar,
Not by. the breezeless lake;
Not on the desert plain
Where man hath never stood,
Whether on isle or MAIN
Not there is solitude!
Birds are in woodland bowers,
Voices in lonely aells! -
Streams TO the listening hours
Talk in cartli's secret cells
Over the gray-ribbcd sand, ~
Breathe Oceans irothy lips;
Ger the still lakes strand
The wild flower tow'rd it dips;
Pluming the mountains crest
Life losses in It's pines;
Coursiny the deserts breast
Life in the stccd's name dimes.
Leavc-if thou would'st be lonely
Leave nature for the crowd;
Seek there for one-ore only
With kindred miNd endowed;
There-as with Nature crst
Closely thou woulJ's commune
The deep soul music nursed
In either heart atunc!
Heart wearied thou wilt own,
Vainly that phantom woocd,
That thou at last hast known,
Where is true solitude! .....

VERY GooD.-The following creed was
adopted by the officers Of the American army,
at Verplarck's Point. in 1882: We believe
that there is great First Cause, by whose
almighty fiat we were formed, and that our
business here is to obey our superiors. We
believe every soldier who does his duty will
be happy hereafter. We believe that Gen.
Washington is the only fit man in the world to
head the American Army. We believe that
Nathaniel Green was born General. We
believe that the evacuation OF Ticonderoga was
one of those strokes which stamps the man
WHO dares TO strike them, with everlasting
fame. We believe that Baron Steuben has
made US soldiers, and that he is capable Of
forming The whole world into solid column,
and displaying it from the centre. We be-
lieve in his blue book. We believc.in Gener-
al Knox and his artillery. And We believe in
our bayonels. Amen.
