Eloquent Extract.

A spirit Of fault>fnding; an unsatislied
temper, constant irritability; little ine-
Qualities in the looks, the temper, or the
manner; a brow cloudy and dissatisfied
your husband or wife cannot tell why
will more than neutralize all the good you
can do, and render life anything buta bles-
sing. tits such gentle and quiet virtues
As meekness and forbeerance, that the
happiness and usefulness Of life consists,
far more than in brilliant eloquence, in
splendid talent, or ilIustrious deeds that
shall send the name to future times. Iii
the bubbling spring which flows gently;
the little rivulet which glides through the
meadow, and which runs along day and
night by the farm house, that is useful,
rather than the swollen food Of the war;
ring cataract. Niagara excites our won~
der; and we stand amazed at the power Of
God there, US he 'pours il from his hollow
haud.' But ore Niagara is enoug h for
continent or world :! whilst that same
world needs thousands and tens Of thou
sands of silver fountains end gently flow
ing rivulets, that shall water every farm,
and every meadow, and every garden, and
that shall flow on every day and every
night with their gentle and quiet beauty.
So with the acts Of our lives. 1t is not by
great deeds only, like those of Howard, not
hy grea, sufferings only, like those OF the
martyrs-,hat good is to be done; it is by
the daily and quiet virtues of lile-the
christian temper, the meek iorbearance'
the spirit Of forgiveness in the lhnsband'
the wife, the father, the mother, the bro
,her, the sister, the ncighbor, that good is
TO be done; and in this all may be useful.

FROM TEXAS.
"GALvEsToN, Jan. IS, 1916,

"GALvEsToN, Jan. l8, l846.
"The legislature of Texas is conven-
ed for the 10th of February. On my
arrival, found President Jones here.
Gen. Houston will be elected to the
Senate BY acclamation, and lam strong.
" inclined TO believe that President
Jones will be his associate. do not
think that any other than / friend OF
Gen. Houston can be elected All the
feverish excitement which existed on
the subject of annexation has subsidized.
The promptness Of President Jones IN
convening the legislature at date SO
immediate as not to lose a day which
it was practicable to save, has gwen
great satisfaction. He himself seems
in high hopes and spirits. He has
gone to Houston on his way to Austin.
"You cannot form an idea of the i'm
mense emigration to Texas. Besides
the three fine sea-steamerS plying week
" between Galveston and New Or
leans, and the immense emigration by
Land from the United States, the har-
Dor is filled with vessels from Europe,
which come crowded with emigrants
seeking refuge on our hospltable
shores from the grinding and unreqult-
ed labors to which they are subjected
in Europe. Many OF these emigrants;
the great bulk of whom are Germans;
bring with them considerable supply
Of ready cash; and all of them from
whom | have heard seem well satisfied
with the change in their condition.
"Captain Elliott is here, having come
for the purpose OF taking leave of the
government, and being, like true En-
gIish gentleman as he is. in at the death.
As the vine has chosen another sup
port than that rendered it by her Brl
tannic Majesty, am not at il surpris.
ed at the captains prophesying, as
am told he does, that after all, the vim
tage will be sour one.'
The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1846-02-14

His position on this great and para
mount question, is Of the regular non
committal class, in the hope Of keeping
up their connection with their Eastern
brethren, at the same time throwing
dust in the eyes Of the people OF Ohio,
who are found to be strongly attached
to their country's cause.
Such are some fthe points OF differ.
ence between the two parties, as rep
resented by the opinions of the gentle
men selected as candidates. The peo'
ple Of Ohio are to choose between them
in few months, and will then deter.
mine which they will favor, the princl-
plies Of democracy, or those OF arlstoc.
racy. The result will not only be i'm
portant TO our own state, but it will be
of great influence throughout the entire
republic. The democracy can triumph
if union pervades their ranks, and thelr
labors are conceived in wisdom and dl,
rected with energy. Will they not be
true to their country, to their cause
and TO themselves. when such immense
prizes are at stake ?--StaieSman.

wHIG STATE CONVENTION.

The Wing State Convention came of at Colum-
bus, on the 4lh inst WILLIAM BEBB, OF Butler
county, was dominated as the hank candidate for
Governor. Resolutions expressive of the sense of
the Convention were adopted Among them we
find one in favor of what the wings call " a sound
banking system;" meaning thereby, then and there.
system with the same restrictions as the banks of
Gallipolis, Urbana and Granve which were Just
as safe as the banks in operation under the law of
last winter. Also resolution in opposition to
hard money" ,"-certany, who ever expected
bankers convention to pass resolutions in favor of
hard money!
The unkindest cut Of all, IN the resolutons,is is the
following:
Resoiued, That any attempt TO depreciate the
value of the stocks of this State, or 10 derange the
public credit, can be made only by traitors to tho
honor of the people.
Poor Mr.. Kelley! The wings not only refuse TO
make you their candidate for governor, hut pass
the foregoing resolution, when every body knows
that you have done more " to deprecate the value
OF the stocks of this State and to derange the pub
lie credit" than any man in 1t.
lnls Convention passed resolution IN opposl-
ton to the Independent Treasury No wonder.
The simple reason that the wings could not get the
funds of the General Government to bank upon,
if the Sub Treasury was established, is enough to
cause it to meet the opposition of the whig party
This Dise Convention also adopted resolution
declaring 81 that the pockets of patriotic people
are the safest treasury of republican government"
True most sapien Statesman! And for that very
reason the people are in favor of the Independent
Treasury, over which their own agents have the
control and opposed to the pockets Of bankers who
are subject to the control ofno one. A resolution
in favor of the existing tariff, met the appreciation
of this convention, as a matter of course; because
the tendency of the present tariff is to build up
manufacturing monopolies at the expense Of the
laboring community.

WHIG CAUCUS.

By reference to the proceedings Of the Whig
State Convention we find the names OF J. w.
War6eld, and z. Bayliss as the delegates from
Monroe!!! Neither of these gentlemen live in
this county, as we believe. Have the wings Of
this county come TO such pass that they cannot
attend to their own interests' II looks very much
like it. In the first place, Central Committee,
at Woods6eId, take it upon themselves to say who
sta be the Associate Judges, without their friends,
at large. having a voice in the matter at all. In
the next place. this same committee. or some other
one, appoint two Guernsey county meh 10 repre-.
sent them in the State Convention
The citizens of the State will soon form a rather
curious opinion of the wings in this county, if
they cut two or three more su ch capers
