national greatness and happiness that ever astonsh

peace by ali honorable means ANY other than hon
orable means would be death to u.s. We should
lose our own respect in addition to that of all the
world This nation ,cin not submit to dishonorabIe
peace They will choose war, even with the most
powerful nation on earth, to that alternative.
Some believe that we shall soon be compelled to
choose between those alternatives | confess that

the conduct Of England indicates that she will pre-
sent to us those alternatives. England TO whom
we have been, and are, the most liberal and extern

BEAUTIFUL TRIBuTE.--The following beautiful
tribute to the distinguished writer and statesman,
the Hon. George Bancroft, we find in the North
ampton Mass Democrat introduced by that pa
per with the following remarks of the editor.
Ball Republican,
"A friend has handed us the following beautiful
and well-merited resolve in favor of late fellow
townsmun, the Hon. George Bancroft which was
unanimously passed at the franklin county demo-
cratic convention, held at Greenfield The reverend
author of it, (Rudophus Dickinson now retired
clergyman, seted down quietly and happily on his
little farm on the banks Of Deerfeld river, at the
age Of than threescore years, voluntarily leaves
his retirement to pay just tribute ofrespect to faith
fu cabinet minister. Wanting nothing himself from
the government, and with singleness Of purpose
that would do honor 10 the Vicar of Wakefield, he
has passed through life from the days of his youth,
under the administration Of Jefferson to the present
time, firm and decided democrat. Well may Mr.
Bancroft be proud Of the resolve, coming from such
man, and most cordially responded to by bis po-
tcal friends:
"Resolred, That the convention hail with Joy the
triumph Of the President Of the United States over
all the powers Of political darkness; and we regard,
with the most grateful complacency his association

vancement, with unsurpassed mental and moral
forne, graspIng the very Spirit Of History, and add
ing novel and most signal err 70 IFS annals ofresh,
refined and giant literature; rapid and rich in the
talents of public life; Of pure patriotic, RADICAL and
resplendent views and purposes towards the Ameri-
can democracy; and while we claim, az adapted to
him, terms which distinguished patriots and s,ates-
men have appropriated TO each other, we cannot
suppress the sympathies with which our hearts are
fun in the rich reward he already enjoys in the ben
edictions of beloved country; and we await with
intense emotions the period when those benedic-
tons, indefinitely enhanced by exalted services de-
voted through long and brilliant future career, TO
the prematen of the highest public interests and
happiness, there will be reseyed Tor him The CRATE

Twas a winter morning.
The weather wet and mild,
Three hours before the dawning
The father reused his child;
Her daily morsel bringing,
The darksome room he paced,
And cried. 1.-THE bell Is ringing

Father I'm up but weary;

Her wasted form seemed nothing
The load was at his heart
Till at the mill they part.
The overlooker met her,
As to her frame she crept,
And with his thong he beat her.
Alas . what hours of sorrow
Made up her latest day;
Those hours that brought no morrow,
Too slowly passed away;
II seemd as she grew weaker,
The threads the oftener broke
The rapid wheels quicker
And heavier fell the stroke.
The sun had long descended,
But night brought repose;
Her day begun and ended,
As cruel tyrants chose.
Atlength to little neighbor
halfpenny she paid
To take her last hours labor,
While by her frame she laid
At last the engine ceasing
The csptives homeward rushd,
She thought her strength increasing
She left, but on she tarfied;
She fell and no more
Till by her comrades carried Saa iH
She reachd her fathers door.
At night with tortur'd feeling
He watch'd his seepless child;
And close beside her kneeling fr

Again the factorys ringing
Her last perceptions tried;
When from her strawbed springinr t rs.
"'Tis time y she Shrek and died
That night chariot passd her,
While on the ground she lay;
The daughters Of her master
An evening visit pay
Their tender hearts signing
As negroes wrongs were told
While the white slave dying
Who gain'd their fathers gold!
