1--WE TO LOVE.

81 live TO love" said a laughing girl,
And she playfully tossed each faxen curl;
And she climbed on her loving fathers knee,
And snatched kiss in her childish gee.
81 live TO love" said maiden fair,
As she twined a wreath Of her sisters hair:
They were bound by thechords oflove together,
And death alone could these sisters sever.
81 live to love" said gay young bride,
Her loved one standing by her side,
Her life told again what her lips had spoken,
And never was the link of affection broken.
81 live to love" said mother kind
81 would live guide to the infant mind"
Her precepts and example given,
Guided her children home 10 Heaven.
81 shall live to love" SAID fading form,
And her eye was bright and her cheek grew
warm;
As she thought on the bllssful world on high,
She would live 10 love and never die.
And ever thus in this lower world,
Should the Banner of Love be wide unfurled,
And when they meet in the world above,
May we love 10 live and live to love.

As he gaily played with his new bought toy,
And merry laugh went echoing forth,
From bosom filed with joyous mirth.

81 will seek for fame--I will toll for gold.n
And he formed in his pleasure many plan
To be carried out when he grew man.

"Oh, gentle maid would live for you;
| have labored hard in search Of fame

As his children neared the wintry fire;
For his heart was cheered to see their JOY,
And he almost wished himself boy.
81 love TO live" said an aged man,
Whose hour of life was well nigh ran
Think you such words from him were wild 2
The old man was again child.
And ever thus in this fallen world,
Is the banner of hope TO the breeze unfurled;
And only with hope oflife on high,
Can mortal ever love to die.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
The National Intelligencer has the following
very lust remarks and reflections on the result
Of the recent elections:
THE BEGINNlNG OF THE END.-We pre-
sumo that our President and his Cabinet are
by this time convinced that they have forfeited
the public conference.-the confidence, that is,
OF their own party; that OF the other they never
possessed. II, after the elections IN PENNsYL'
wanna, Ono, MAINE, and New HAMPsHIRE,
any doubt of this solemn fact still fingered IN
their minds, the voice OF condemnation which
has reached them from NEW YORK must have
dispelled il with speed as prompt as that OF
the electric agent which transmitted to them the
fatal news. This was the inevitable result OF a
rash and ruinous policy, which thousands saw,
but which those most deeply interested would
not see. They were told that if they madly
persisted in breaking down the wise protective
system given to the country by the Wing par
ty, and under which industry had flourlshed
and all interests had so greatly prospered; If
they madly persisted in derangng the business
of the nation by reviving the odous and brok
en- down Sub Treasury, Their own party must
abandon them. Those who could pretend TO
any unprejudced knowledge of public sentl-
ment, foresaw and foretold this; but they were
UNDECIDED. Somewhat obsevant Of public at
fairs and of public feeling, we ourselves ventu-
red to predict the political consequences Of the
deplorable policy which was then impending,
and which has since proved SO DISASTROUS
On the 4ih Of May last we yentured the follow
ing opinion-not for any purpose OF effect, but
from firm conviction of its truth: "Were we
capable of being governed by party consdera-
tons merely, without reference 10 the gener-
al interest of this great Commonwealth, we
should desire no more effective arms against the
now dominant party than the party itself would
furnish us by the twin measures OF the prostra-
lion of the Tariff and the establishment Of the
Sub-Treasury system"
What was then prediction is now history;
but the prediction was scorned and secuted by
the sycophants who surrounded the Executive
and who, like all their tribe, were more intent
on nattering than on saving their master
The measures must be right because the Wings
opposed; they were Democratic measures ;
they were prescribed by the canons the Bal
tinlore Convention, and must be infallible.-
So they rushed on, and are now reaping their
reward.

Mn PoLR's FAux PAs.-The extraordinary
blunder Of President Polk, says the Richmond
Times. in permitting SANTA ANNA and Al
MONTE to return from Havana 10 Mexico, is
becoming the subject Of general and very Sc
we're aninadversion. A more unfortunate and
ridiculous mistake was never committed by
any government In consequence OF il, we
are at this moment farther from a termination
Of the war than we were on the ninth Of May.
For had not unanimity of purpose been at
tanned in Mexico, BY the arrival and accession
Iof SAsTA ANsA, AMPUDIa would never have
been able TO rally a force Of 10000 men at
Monterey, or, at least the capitalation Of that
town would have been the end Of the war.
The Alexandria Gazette. in the following
article. shows what IS thought in Europe Of
the unexampled policy Of our Cabinet.
OPINIONS ABRosD.--We learned, a day or
two since, in conversation with a gentleman
recently returned from Europe, that the great.
est surprise was manifested in private circles
in England, by the most intelligent aud we'll
informed people, at the very extraordinary
movement of our government in counienanc-
ing and permitting the return Of SANTA ANNA
and his officers 10 Mexico. 'sYou Americans
was the common remark. "are certainly the
strangest people on the face ofthe cath. You
certainly display the most indomiiable heruiSm
and perseverance-you overcome obstacles
that would seem almost insurmountabie--and
yet YOU display the utmost lack OF wisdom.
nay. even of common sense, 10 the conduct Of
your war with Mexico. 4ou permit SANTA
ANNA, skilful general. man Of VIGOROUSLY
bad faith. without one single honorable trait IN
his character, crafty, cunning, deeeltful, and
your bitter enemy, TO regain his country, unite
divided people, and lead 40 army, deyotedto
his interests, against you. THIS is move
ment which no other nation upon earth would
have thought Of, for a single moment. You
permit ALMoSTE, too, who from his long re-
sidence in your country, is probably the best
informed OF all his countrymen. OF your condl-
ton and rerources, as well as the disposition of
your people. TO return with SANTA Anna. and,
/ in all probability, assume the direction Of the
war department. Besides all this, YOU offer
encouragement to your enemies 10 prolong the
war, by paying them, and paying them liber-
Tally too for all the supplies you take from
them for the sus:enance Of your troops i his
may, and doubtless does, spring from honora-
/ bic motives, but il is against the universal
practice Of nations engaged 10 war, and is GER
tainly The worst policy that you could have
adopted Respect private property as far as is
consistent, repress indiscrininate pilage, but
above all, make your enemies feed your ar
myl"
These opinions ofour Trans atlantic friends,
are such as we have frequently expressed, and
just such as we should suppose every man OF
common sense would entertain. The course
pursued by the Administration IS as inexplt
cable 10 us as il is TO them.

TENNESSEE VoLUSTEERs-THE KILLED
AND WouNpED-The Nashville Wing Of the
oath ultimo publishes a letter from Col. VIM.
B. CAMPBELL, giving an account Of the bat
tie of Monterey, and containing list OF the
killed, wounded, and missing IL his regiment.
The list occupies near column of the Nash
vile Wing. tits the most melancholy column
we ever saw in newspaper. Similar records
must appear in the Journals Of other States.
What tears will fall, what hearts will break
over the gloomy developments of the results
of war-of these victims, who lie crushed be-
neath the chariot OF victory, their eyes blind
to the incense withwhich the world applause
tempers the red glare of the battlefield ; their
pulseless hearts no longer sensible TO the patri
OTIS pride, the heroes impulses, and the sol
dler's duty
The letter OF Col. CAMPBELL. announcing
the details Of the battle, while il breathes nat
ural spirit of exultation over the remarkable
success Of the American arms, seems TO US
pervaded by tone Of subdued sadness such
as these deplorable results might well call
forth. Ii is Ike the blended strains of a chant
Of triumph and dirge Of wo There is no
unseemly boasting, but it is the language OF
one who feels that the laurels Of conquest are
stepped in the blood Of kinsmen and friends

LIGHT FROM FLowERs-The Cincinnati
Commercial mentioned the fact some time
since of a remarkable phenomenon in natural
history, as related by Swedish lecturer, be
ing nothing less than light from flowers. by,
experiment il was found that the marlgolds OF
an orange or fame color, emitted, at intervals
of several Minutes, two or three flashes OF
light, in quick succession, and when several
flowers in the same place emitted their light
together, it could be seen a considerable dis
lance. This phenomenon was observed IN
July and August, when the sky was clear,
about sunset. Monks hood, orange lily and
Indian pink emit flashes, but less vivid than
the marigold. The light has been observed by
others. and is now supposed to be electrical,
and to proceed from the petals only. The
matter IS certainly worthy of the attention of
the curious, and win interest the philosopher
and botanisi.
