the more stability will Il havc--the greater conf.
dence shall every citizen feel in his appeals Tor
justice. He knows that at its great head all local
iealousies and animosities lose their influence |;
and if he finds there justice for right, or re-
dress for wrong, he will resign his case with the
conviction that the imperfecton OF human nature
alone has bafied him. Over thus we have no
control.
Tho subject would admit OF a thousand arxu-
nents, each Leading to the same truth Argu-
ment, however, is almost unnecessary. Intelli-
gence only requires TO be set on the road. 1t will
see for itself the truth Of this proposition. Who
doubts for moment that Louisiana, or Florida,
or Maine, or Iowa are much under the control
aud protection of our government, as Maryland or
Virginia, aye, and even Oregon and California
will feel the spirit OF our laws and comprehend
the necessity Of their obedience, just as vel as if
theee territories bordered on the District of Co.
lumbia.
Let us hear no more croaking philosophy abont
extent of territory" standing in our way. Eng
land, begued into the belief by The doctrines and
declarations of John Quincy Adams and others,
thinks that We actually in n state Of disnem-
bsrment-falliny to pieces. What laughable
halucination That day is farther distant than
the imagination OF our enemies can extend. When
that day shall have arrived, then may the enemies
Of republicanism rejoice, for they shall have seen
the end of all free government, but they shall
also have read a new chapter on the face of his
tory-that the whole world has been united under
one great federal congress! When that union
falls assunder mankind shall resolve itself into
tho elements of its original barbarism. We fear
not then for this extent of our territory, no. if it
reached from the ice-bound coast of Labrador TO
the straits of Magellan. The solemn edicts of our
great Congress at Washington. will be as effective
on the snowy shores of Behring's Straits. in the
Land OF Fire, on the pampa. of the South, and
the praries of the North west, thoy are in tho
District Of Columbia itself.
Such is our destiny.

THE CHOICE.

No; shan't envy him, whoe'er he be,
That stands upon the baulemenls'of State;
Stand there who will form
I'd rather be secure than great
OF being so high, the pleasure is but small,
But long the ruin, if Ct cato fall.
Let me in some sweet sna-i sercnely lie,
Happy in leisure AM ahscurily;
Whilst others place their joys
In popularity and noise,
Let my soft moments glide obscurely on,
Like Sublerrancan streams, unheard, unknown
Thus when my days are all in silence past,
A good, plain countryman TIL die at last;
Death cannot choose but be
To him a mighty misery,
Who to the world was popularity known,
And dies a stranger to himself alone

POETRY.
TO MARY.

Fair lady, il is bliss to sit and gaze
Upon thy lovely cheek and pale sweet brow;
never dreamed, in LIES romantic days.
Ofaught so passing beautiful as thou:
dream there's not in earth, or sky, or sea,
A lovely thing but is surpassed by thee.
Thine eye, so calm, mild, spiritually blue,
Seems like the first sweet violet of the year,
Through whose young leaves, wet with the
diamond dew,
The suns first beams shine beautifully clear;
AMI what world Of bright thoughts seems TO
lie
Within the blue depths of that gentle eye
And thy young cheek loneliness reveals
White as the roses that in Cashmere blow,
Save when a sweet blush DER its sodness steals,
Rich with the hues that in the sunset glow;
And then thy lips awake such dreams of Hiss,
That really I'm half crazy for a kiss

DR. BENNETT AND HIS GAME OF
TIMBLEs.-We suppose that but few per-
sons in these parts ever heard of Dr. Ben
nett, yet on the lower Mississippi and its
principal tributaries, almost every man or
boy knows him as the most adroit gambler
in the country.
The game Of ThimbleS is the Doctors
forte, played with three thmbes and a
small pellet of PnFar, moving them about
and so placing the pellet, that the bystan-
ders cannot tell where il is to be found.
The Doctor is a very demure, simple look
ing individual, and when about TO engage
in his game, handles the utensils so aw-
hardly that the dullest observer will freely
bet that he can tell which thimble covers
the pellet. Often he permits the crowd
but never fails TO close his game largely
winner.
The Doctor was at Tuscumbis, Alabama,
one summer idlng his time, when a
young man, son Of Judge S--of Law
renee CO., came to town with a large sum
ofmoney sent TO pay note OF his fathers
He was soon persuaded into the belief that
he could make handsome profit on his
fathers funds, by betting against the
Thunderstorm undeceived by finding
his whole capital transferable the Doctors
pocket, and nothing was left but 10 90
home and tell his father what had become
ofhis money.
Judge S--ordered out his mule, land
a spIendit mule il was) and started down
in a hurry TO take satisfaction out of tho
Doctor, or get back his money. Arrived in
town ne soon found the Doctor, and in
terrible passion charged him with having
swindled his son.
After the ball had passed about, and the
thImbles rested the Doctor said now Judge
that's the game The Judge had looked
on atlenlively. rs that the game at which
the Id fool lost his money! why
could tell whsre the ball is every time,
and all his anger seemed turned on his son.
But the Doctor generously .nterposed Tor
the youths defence. Stop Judge, don't
abuse the young man, the game isn't half
as easy as you think but the Judge swore
that be would tell where the ball was now,
aud proposed 20 bet bis fine mule against
500 that Il was under the middle thimble.
No, no, says the Doctor, SO ANTI there
Judge, and besides don't want 10 BET With
you. Bot BY Cd you shall, says The
Judge. Reluctantly the Doctor Welded,
and slowly put up bis 500, then deliber-
ately moved the middle thimbie but no
ball vas there, didnt cell you % Ju5ge.
The Judge vas satisfied, borrowed The
Doctors mule rod home and returned the
next day, bui I've never heard ofhis either

The Language of Flowers.

dare not whisper what feel for thee
But | will let the flowers, upon whose leaves
Hath love lis language written, plead my suit;
Then listen, lovely lady. First send
The rose of hundred leaves, ambassador.
The nmyrlis ncxt-an emblem, bright
And beautcous, OF thyself Interpreter
Ofmy own thoughts, the cedar Then for thee
The pure white lily; for myself the Pink,
Red as the sky Mt sunset Migoneue
For thee, the Oak geranium for myself;
The harebel next, another emblem sweet
Ofthee, the currant for myself
When the swift hours are warning to leave,
! send the thyme to whisper thee the cause;
The orange blossom next, more truth of thee,
With the rich Musk.rose TO complete the wreath
Then, oh, then, clustered with my hopes and
fears
Warm from repeated pressurcs to my heart,
And trembling with its beatngs, close entwined,
! give the Myrte's green and poIish'd leaves,
With the rose.hued Crysanthemum With
pride
place thy wreath upon thy radiant brow,
And mine, with the red tulip in its midst,
| lay, in deepest reverence, at thy feet

Beauty and Innocence.

The rosy hours of childhood,
How beautiful they seem,
While glides Ife's fairy shallop,
Like the spirit Of a dream
Ere the bright blue sky ofpleasure
Hath one gloomy cloudlet known;
Ere the hearts pure spirit-breathings
Prodned by earth have grown.
All the lovelincss Of childhood,
What is il but the ray
Ofheaven, which still iarries
Around life's early day,
Ere the birhright signst, given
To mark brighter sphere,
Grows darkly dim, and vanishes
Beneath each earth-stsin herel
How pure the thoughts Of childhoodl
In lifes unshadowed hours
They float amid fairy land
or zephyrs and OF flowers
As float the sun-beams lightly
Ger the glancings Of a stream
The rosy hours Of childhood,
How beautiful they seem

EMBALnING.-The Egyptian method
Of embalming il is known, was very COM
pick aud expensive. A new method has
been invented by DIR. Fathenslock, Of
Pitsbnrg, and successfully performed on a
stranger who desired that his body should
be sent N his friends. He severed the ar
teries ia the neck and proceeded to inject
solution Of arserIe, highly impregnaied,
into each spverally, until he became sails
fed that the fluid had found its way into
every vein and avenue throughout The
body. The arteries were then tightly
closed BY cords 10 exclude the air, and this
ended the whole process. Il is said that
this mode OF embalming will kept the body
perfect Tor many years.
