But where is all this agitation to end
Why, sir, just where all discussion ends,
in clearer conviction of truth and deep
err feeling of duty-in the progress of lib

vancement ofthe happy day, when not a
son of God shall wear a chain upon his

1t will require efforts, earnest efforts,
sacri fees of treasure: and it may be Of
blood. No great enterprise for humanity
can ever be accomplished without them.
But look to see men arise equal to the
crisis, superior TO all dangers, and en-
dowed by God for their mission. The
Wickliffes and Luthers, the Clarksons and
Wilberforces, have not all lived yet. In a
great cause great men arise and enjoy a
charmed life. A Providence protects them +;
a cloud ofdivine love is a shield over them.
The scales will fall from mems eyes; the
veil will be rent from their hearts.

Dor but corn and oats, hay ard straw for the

every kind for the other. These asricultu-
raj products were purchased and consumed,
and this made up nearly the whole price OF
the iron which the manufacturer received and
paid over to the farmers again and again, as
often as the process was repeated. Well. is
not iron made in England of the same mate
rails that it is made OF here? Certainly !;
then is not four-6fihs of the value of British
iron made up of British agricultural produce?
And if we purchase nine millions Of dollars

One remark more on this topic. Secretary
Walker informs us that the present duty on
iron is rs per cent, which he proposes to re-

ports of iron Clearly he must. Then we
must add ten or twelve millions per year to
our present imports of iron, and of course
destroy that amount Of our domestic supply
TO make room for il. Thus, at blow, in the
single article of iron, this bill is intended to
destroy the American markets for at least
eight millions OF dollars worth ofdomestic az

Thine is the look that pains my breast
With feelings which alone know
But while gaze Pm doubly blest,
And yet that gazing brings distress,
But not of sorrow pain or woe.
1t is distress, both lone and deep
Which feeds upon the vital fire,
1t is awake its vigils keep,
Each flying hour;--awake or sleep;
Each thought it makes funeral pyre.
1t is distress to Joy allied
Or Joy or passion, sadness still,
But Of that pang to be denied
Would kill the joy-and now, divide
The aching soul and aching will.
Oh, frown not yet, keep on that smile,
Ifthou would bless tho art not blest,
Oh frown not yet, if ye'd beguile,
One moment of dark sorrows while
With sweet, tho unpaid tenderness.
