FRAUDS In EIOUR

The Boston papers are complaining Of
frauds in Flour, some barrels falling short
twenty pounds OF more. The Evening Tray
eller says:
Agenileman, apparently well informed in
the matter, has calculated, from facts that have
come 10 his knowledge, that a certain Touring
establishment saves at least $4,000 a year
tfas way. Many others, there is reason To
believe, save in equal proportion. The loss
falls principally on the consumer. Those
who buy large quantities, on speculation, We
~ naturally ascertain the weight, and if de-
%ficient, insist on a corresponding reduction in
the price; but the poor man, who buys single
barrel Tor his own consumption, as naturally
takes it without suspicion, a. of full weight.
II may be well Tor all who use -four ia
stand for their rights. When they pay tho
pSice ola barrel of -four, they have a right to
l96 pounds Of -four, ami the barrel besides,
which will weigh nearly or quite twenty
pounds.

THE MINISTER TO ENGLAND.
The Washington Union of Friday nigh,
the following article
MR.. MLANE AT LONDON.

The wholly false report that this gentleman
is dissatisfied in his present position, and that
he wishes TO return To this country, because
he is not intrusted NTH the settlement of The
Oregon question, has run the rounds OF the
whole Wing press. 1t is reiterated again aud
again in every variety of form. and we notice
that II is this morning repeated in the Intel
ligencer.
We now reply to it for the last time. We
state, Of our oton personal knoioitdgc. that Mr..
MLane, when he went 10 England, consider
ed 1t highly expedient that the Oregon nego.
tiation should be conducted at Washington;
and that he entertained this opinion, too. on
conclusive reasons growing out of the nature
OF the question itself, and wholly Independents
OF any limitations from the adminisira,ion as
to the line of negotiation To be adopted.
We say further; that Mr.. MLane ras moi
charged aoith the Oregon negotiation, and
that he was p erfectly satisfied with that ar.
rangemcnt. And we add TO these statement
the fact, that if Mr.. M'Lane desires 10 return
from his mission, no intimaiion OF such a de.
sire has been received here. That he wishe,
to return, in a spirit of dissatisfaction and
disgust, we learn from the best authority, iii,
wholly gratuitous aud untrue.

OVERWHELMINGLY Union ofSatur.

N0SEC0ND TERM.-The Union ofSatur-
day, contains the following strong language
relative To charges against President Polk, of
paving the way for a second term, sc.
I'VE repeat that Mr.. Polk has mo future
before his eyes. Having been elevated to the
summit of honor and ambition by the voice OF
a free people. he has nov M other ambition
to satisfy, except to prove himself worthy of
the confidence Of his country by d~ischarging
his duties in good faith, in pursuance of his
principles, and to- the best OF his abilities. 1t
is thus that he will manifest his gratitude To
the people-thus he will Discharge the duties
of patriot-thus contribute to his owl nappi-
ness whilst in office, and thus lay up stores of
delicious "reminiscences on which he may re-
pose in the bosom of retirement. He will not
of course, commit the egregious error OF ming
ling in the question ot the succession. He
will take no mans part-iavor no mans as
piration-suffcr no man i'm the administration
to participate in the st~rugglc-favor no man
himself, and oppose no man. Such is the
course which becomes Mr.. Polk. and such is
the course which he will pursue. He will take
no part with Col. Benton, or with any other
man, in such an opposition TO Mr.. Calhoun
il, indeed, Col. Benton or any other man could
be supposed to participate in such an intrigue.
Ii becomes Mr.. Polk to act upon more clevat-
ed principles-to look to his country and not
to men-to recommend the measures which
are best calculated to advance her prosperity
and her glory, and not to stoop 10 any Of the
intrigues of office. Ii becomes him, especial
~, TO carry out the great principles upon which
he was elected-tok keep the great party united
to whose union he isindebtea for his own ele-
vation-,o keep the bundle OF arrows as firm.
ly united together as he possibly can, in order
that Inc may preserve, -four years hence, the
succession Of his great principles, and not OF
men, firm and unbroken. For the purpose oi
preserving the unity of the republican party
Inc must attend to the two great elements o.
union: lst. The carrying out Of the principles
which constitute them as one party, aud which
are so admirably set forth in the resolutions Of
the Baltimore convention; and 2dly, that he
must treat all portions of the party, and all
their distinguished men, with justice. equality
and impartiality. Whence, then, this idle
gossip of fayoring one man at the expense oil
another-of prelerring citizenof the West &c
a citizen of the South? And much more, o
becoming a catspaw in the hands of one, Il
check and TO crush another? Such is no
the purpose nor the wish of Mr.. Polk. w,
firmly believe that these are his high purposes
otherwise, we would say, with all respect, W,
would not at this time of day be found in
Washington. '-Y-e-e-s Sir.

FORGETFULNESS

A writer in the Boston Atlas relates the fol-
lowing:-A Connecticut lady. who was in
the habit Of always leaving something or other
behind her, whenever she went on a journey,
was not long since promised by her husband
the present of q handsome shawl, if ON the
occasion of her leaving home the next day,
she carried everything she wanted with her.
The lady of course exerted herself to the ut
most, and the pair set off towards the place
OF their destination. They had not proceeded
a mile, however, when the lady exhibited
symptoms Of fidgetiness, as usual, and ex-
claimed in a fright, Goodness gracious!
forgot The baby" So the shawl was lost for
that time.

YIELD NOT TO DARK DESPAIR.

Whose gentle smile approves thee

Atuot 'iOu Oiit itdIl itldl loves tnte.
In this dark world of care,
Whose gentle smile approves thee
Yield not tn dark despair.
One rose, whose fragrant blossom,
Blooms but for thee alone;
One fond confdiug bosom,
Whose thoughts are all thine own
One gentle star TO guide thee,
Aud bless thee on thy way,
That cen when storms betide thee,
Still lends It's gentle ray.
One crystal fountain springing
Within lif9's dearett waste.
Whose waters still are bringing
Kelreshment to thy taste
One tuneful voice to cheer thee,
When sorrow has distressed:
One breast, when thou art weary,
Wherein thy head to rest
Till that sweet rose is faded,
And cold, that heart so warm.
I'LL clouds thy star have shaded,
Heed not the passing storm.
Till the kind voice that blest thee
All mute in death doth lie,
And the fount that oft refreshed thee
To thee is ever dry
Thou hast one tie to bind thee
To this dark world OF care;
Then let no sorrow bind thee
Yield not to dark despair.
