Mr.. BUcHANAN.-The Washington
correspondent of the Louisville Democrat
has the following remarks respecting Mr..
Buchanan and his future Whereabouts:
Buchanan, it is now certain, will resign,
but no one can divine his successor He
has not spirit enough for The political
world; he is a man Of superior attachments,
but is too fat for action-and there IS too
much cold iron about him, to asSimilate
his feelings to the wants Of the whole
Union. He is talked Of for the bench.
There he will go--my word for that. All
FAT, intellectual lawyers make good judges,
because there is a strong natural tendendY
of the heads antipodes to gravitate IN the
arm chair Tey can never think on their
legs. Buchanan, if he is the sensible man,
suppose him to be, must see this, and all
the advice can give him are the words OF
Davy Crockett: "Be always sure you're
right then go ahead" Good bye Judge.

POETRY.
A PSALM OF THE NIGHT

Fades from the West the farewell light,
Flung backward by the setting sun,
And silence deepens as the night
Steals with its solemn shadows on
Gathers the SOFT refreshing dew,
On springing grass and flowret stems
And 10 the everlasting blue
Is radiant with thousand gems
Ye visible spirits bright as erst
Young Edens brthnight saw ye shine
On all her flowers and fountains first,
Yet sparkling from the hand dvinei
Yes, bright as then We smiled to catch
The music of a sphere so fair,
Ye hold your high immortal watch.
And grid your Gods pavilion there.
Source of all life, and joy, and light
Creator of each starry sphere,
That DER me, on the arch ofnight
CLEANS like a diamond, bright and clear;
Oh as gaze, transported now,
Upon this blue, resplendent dome,
X put to hear my prayer, and thou
ne m; call my erring spirit home
Home, from the worlds fast fading bowers,
Frail visions and deluding dreams,
To that fair cline Of Eden bowers,
Sweet airs and softly gliding streams
oh. make me feel that while | stay,
A soiourner and stranger here,
NV soul must seek its homeward way
Far far beyond each starry sphere
knecl before thy gorgeous throne
Upon thy footstool, king of kings
And, gazing on the glorics shown
Beneath the Holy Spirits wings
Ablcct and weak, my awestruck heart
Would from thy dazzling presence lice,
If, Saviour, thou didst not impart
Rays of undying nope to me!
As wonder faint aud cimmcring star
Receives its ustre from the sun,
Though from its fiery spIendors far
So from thy love, Almighty One,
My spirit drinks immortal light
oh, never may that light decay
But like yon diamond ofthe night,
In heavens own beauty melt away
The all of"Lucy NeaI'' is too beautiful
melody to be lost in the jorgon of negr
rhymes, and sung by thick Tipped Sanlbo'

ADEspERATE WoMAN.--On the 4th
inst, while the steamboat Great Western
was living at Mackinaw Mich, it was
whispered round that one of the paSsen-
gers, who seemed trim boy ofsome 10 or
Is years, was in fact woman. Capt.
Walker invited the youth and one of the
principal citizens of Mackinaw into his
Office, and there being questioned, the
suspicious passenger declared herself
woman, and gave her reasons for assuming
the dress she wore.
She said she was married, as she suppos
ed few years ago, in Buffalo; that after
living with her husband some years, and
having or children by him, he told her
the marriage was all sham; that he had
another lawful wife, and had contemptu-
ouslv cast off her and her children.
Under these circumstances, she had
sworn to have revenge or justice. She
had ascertaned that the man who had thus
deeply wronged her was living at Macki-
nav, and she had come there to obtain
recognition of her rights, or vengeance
in default Upon which she exhibited two
loaded pistols, which she carried about her
person. After some farther conversation
she gave up the pistols, and messenger
was despatched to the husband with an
mtimation that passenger on the Western
wished to see him. He soon came on
board, and the two parties met face TO face.
The woman upbraided him with all the
wrongs he had inflicted npon her, and
demanded repuration for herself and chill
dren by legal marriage, at the same time
with all the recklessnesS of a woman goa
ded to desperation threatening his life with
the most vehement reservations if he fail.
ed to do her justice.
At this point the door opened, and the
man, who had covered before her, shot out
like lightning and escaped TO the shore.
She soon followed after, ascertained his
place of business, and sought another in-
terview As she approached the man,
doubtless supposing she had come TO fulfil
her threats, and that he must defend his
life, raised pistol and fired. The ball struck
near her feet She never blenched, but
drawing a pistol in turn from her vest, took
deliberate aim at him, and then lowered
the weapon, saying as she turned on her
heel, "No, you poor contemplate wretch,
it would disgrace even woman 10 Stay
you'll"
The affair, of course, made great noise
on the island.-M o. Delta.
